please make me king

Chapter 1367
"Report, Ximarin Fort has fallen, capture it for defense!"

"Report, Xinhekou Fort has fallen, cut its defenses!"

"Report, the Xinkai Fort has been taken down, and its guards committed suicide!"

……

That night, outside the Wanquan Youwei City, the voices of the rebels reporting the battle situation sounded from time to time.

Since the night was quiet at this time, the people in the Youwei City could already hear it clearly.

"Zhi Niang, what should I do?" Commander Wei couldn't hold back when he heard this, and asked the right guard general.

"What should I do? Cold salad!" The ginseng had a dark face and was helpless for a while.

It turned out that someone proposed to take the initiative to attack, but after everyone carefully compared the strength of the enemy and ourselves, they finally gave up this idea.

"Now there are only [-] soldiers in my city, and there are also [-] 'shun thieves' outside the city. If I go out of the city, I may stay behind to guard the city. In this way, it is difficult to succeed if you attack more with less."

"Even if I succeed, the 'Shun Thief' is nothing more than a horse fight, and I will come back tomorrow morning; if I lose the battle, my legs will be no match for my four legs, and I will die without a place to die!"

The situation was like this, and the Wanquan right guard general was also very helpless, so he had to hide in the city, waiting for something to change.

However, variables soon emerged.

In the early morning of the next day, the Ming army, who had not heard the news of the "shun bandits" attacking the city, suddenly saw a horse coming from the north.

The pawn was galloping and shouting loudly.

At the beginning, the distance was far away, and everyone could not hear clearly.But when the cavalry pawn approached, everyone finally heard what the pawn was shouting clearly.

"Shanfangbao has changed its flag and banner, and it has been changed to the name of King Shun!"

"Zhiniang thief, Zhang Fuguo's anti-boned thief!" After hearing this, everyone couldn't help cursing.

Do you know why?

Among the five castles under the jurisdiction of Shangxi Road with Wanquan Youwei as the core, Ximarin is the farthest, seventy miles away from Wanquan.

Shanfangbao is the closest, twenty miles north of Wanquan.

According to the order of the rebels from far to near, and from west to east, the next one is Zhangjiakou Fort, where their core interests are located.

"No, we can't go on like this!" Sure enough, one of the generals couldn't hold back and said, "If Zhangjiakou is taken over by the 'Shun Thieves', it will be a big deal!"

Compared with other forts, Zhangjiakou Fort is not only a fortress but also a place where Ming and Tartars exchanged trade.

Since Tumd Alta paid tribute back then, the two parties agreed to trade with each other, and Zhangjiakou Fort became an important place for the mutual trade between the two parties.

Most of the Mongolian merchants like "Fan" are located in Zhangjiakou, so as to conduct trade with Mongolia and gold at any time.

Therefore, after the defeat of Jiexiu Fan's family in Azig, their hometown was "destroyed", and they still had the idea of ​​making a comeback by relying on "Zhangjiakou Industry".

If it is said that the rebels took Ximarin, Xinkaikou, Xinhekou, and even Shanfangbao, Wanquan Youwei and others could bear it.

It is absolutely impossible for them to sit back and watch Zhangjiakou Fort fall.

This Jiakou Fort seems to be a fortress, but in fact it is an important channel for trade with Mongolia and Houjin, and it is also the outlet for the Ji family to develop the "Wanli Tea Road".

If this place is occupied by the rebels, not only the property will be seized, but also the right to trade with Mongolia and women will be lost. This is absolutely unacceptable to Wanquan Youwei and the old men behind him.

"I can't wait any longer, go out of the city to fight!" The right guard officer pondered for a moment, and finally realized that he couldn't bear the responsibility of losing Zhangjiakou Fort, so he had to order.

Following the order of Wanquan Right Guard General, more than [-] people under his command immediately filed out and lined up against the city.

Li Zicheng couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly ordered his soldiers to mount their horses one after another.

If it is said that the strong strongholds fought idle battles and attacked cities and looted land, then Li Zicheng was not as good as Zhang Shun.

If he gallops right away and travels quickly, Li Zicheng is no less inferior to Zhang Shun.

"There are cannons in the city, lead them out!" Li Zicheng observed for a while, and then ordered immediately.

The right-back general Wanquan set up a well-regulated formation with the back of the city, but this formation was not easy for Li Zicheng.

Because this time in the battle, he finally felt the opponent's weakness, and was about to make contributions and add color to his "king", how could he stop him?
Sure enough, following Li Zicheng's order, Gu Kecheng led an army of [-] horses forward and tried several times in a row, but they were all shot back by the artillery from the Ming army city.

Li Zicheng couldn't help but issued a bold order: "Turn the horse's head to the north. If he pursues him, he will fight back; if he doesn't pursue him, he will join forces with Fatty Zhang and attack Zhangjiakou Fort!"

In fact, Li Zicheng's order was extremely risky. If the Ming army's participation in the general failed to comply with his intentions, and instead led troops to attack Wanquan's left guard, he would fall into a passive position instead.

Because for Li Zicheng, his main purpose this time is to suppress the rebellion, not to liquidate the forces linked by the Zhangjiakou Fort Traveling Mongolian Merchants.

It's a pity that this general has short-sightedness, he is useless if given a chance, and he doesn't know how powerful it is.

Sure enough, it didn't matter if he walked away, the Wanquan Right Guard General couldn't hold back, he led his soldiers to leave the city, and chased all the way north.

Seeing that the right guard had taken the bait, Li Zicheng traveled seven or eight li to the north, and found a flat place where the cavalry lined up on a high place.

But when the generals of the complete right guard and the commander of the Wanquan right guard arrived, they charged forward with horses.

The Right Guard General was not in vain, he quickly dispatched cavalry and some infantry to resist, while hastily forming an array.

By the time the rebel cavalry killed him, the infantry had already lined up.

Li Zicheng ordered the cavalry to be divided into three columns and charge repeatedly.

The right guards used firecrackers and artillery to attack in turn to resist the rebel cavalry.

The two sides fought for a while, and the rebels suffered a lot of casualties, so they lost all the way to the north.

The general was overjoyed when he saw it, and hurriedly led his infantry in pursuit. Unexpectedly, the formation was just chaotic, and Gu Kecheng, who had been ambushing at the side earlier, came out, and the right guard was in chaos.

Li Zicheng took the opportunity to turn his horse's head and struck back. The general was killed on the spot. The commander of the guards saw that he couldn't resist, so he had to surrender.

Li Zicheng hastily sent troops south again, seized the opportunity to seize Wanquan Youwei City, and only then did he examine the facts.

Unexpectedly, the Commander of the Guards made a confession: "This matter is that in the future, Wu Weihua, the Duke of Gongshun of the Kingdom of Jin, will lead a series of connections, with Zhangjiakou Fan, Jin, Erwang, Liang, Tian, ​​Zhai, and Huang as the main eight masters, including Shangxilu and Xiaxilu. Road, East Road, Middle Road, Shangbei Road, and Xiabei Road to join the generals and garrison, and agreed to go out at any time to retake Xuanfu Town and return it to the Qing..."

"What?" Li Zicheng couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words. There were seven generals in Xuanfu town, except for the south road generals in Weizhou, the others were against each other. What should we do?
However, he quickly realized that despite what this guy said, in fact, most people still follow the crowd, and it is impossible to accompany them to make money out of the fire.

He couldn't help sneering and said: "Don't you dare to bully me, and tell me who is this Gongshun Marquis Wu Weihua, and why is he so capable?"

Li Zicheng didn't know that, in the historical line of Zhang Shun's previous life, this guy surrendered to Dorgon after Li Zicheng was defeated, and helped him recruit Xuanda, Shanxi and other places.

Therefore, Jiang Xiang, the general of Datong, also took the opportunity to kill Zhang Tianlin, the general of the garrisoned rebel army, and surrendered to the Qing army, which to a certain extent accelerated the collapse of the peasant army's power in Shanxi.

Where did the commander of the guard know about the grievances between the two?
He had no choice but to answer honestly: "This Wu Weihua is said to be Ming...after the previous court respectful uncle Wu Yuncheng."

"It is said that after taking refuge in Houjin, he was promised to be a respectful and obedient marquis, so he sold his life..."

"Oh? So that's how it is!" Li Zicheng thought for a while, and couldn't help saying: Listen carefully, this guy is not a good bird.

Now that there are Song Junshi and Li Guogong sitting in Xuanfu City, it should be safe, I will trick this person and tell him to be a traitor!

　The author thought about it carefully, and it would be better to let Li Zicheng take revenge with his own hands
　　You cheated me in the previous life, and I cheated you in this life. This is the way of heaven and good reincarnation.
