Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 139 Outsmarting Liaoyang
After a while, Qi Jiguang urged the horse to come.

He looked around, but he didn't see a living traitor. Qi Jiguang couldn't help frowning:

"General Li, are you happy with them?"

Li Cunxiao laughed loudly:
"Haha... they died, all of them were killed, and none remained."

Qi Jiguang rubbed his head helplessly, he wanted to leave one or two alive, but he didn't expect Li Cunxiao and Xuanjia cavalry to move so fast and kill all the bandits.

"Okay, the general is brave and invincible. He is worthy of being the most powerful general in history. The governor will give you a great credit. Now let's discuss how to break through Liaoyang."

Li Cunxiao Yu Wang Shenchao in one fell swoop:
"Captain, Li Cunxiao is willing to lead the Xuanjia cavalry to attack Liaoyang."

Qin smiled slightly and asked:
"General, do you know how many red cannons are on Liaoyang City?"

"This... if there is a cannon in red, it will be really troublesome."

When he was summoned, Li Cunxiao was not afraid of anything. Ever since he saw the power of firearms, Li Cunxiao was very impressed with the red cannon. It was too powerful.

At the beginning, the Eastern captives did not have firearms. After the surrender of Kong Youde and others, coupled with the secret support of Shanxi merchants, their firearms have also become standard equipment.

Especially during the period of Huang Taiji, he completely changed the shortcomings of the Dongcap Eight Banners attacking the city. Every time they attacked a city, they would concentrate all the red cannons and violently attack a city.

When the city was captured by them, they gathered the red cannons that had just captured the city, and then attacked the next city.

As a result, the number of red-clothed cannons captured in the east increased. After the nine border towns were occupied in many places in Liaodong, the red-clothed cannons were evenly distributed to some large cities to defend the city.

Therefore, there are at least 20 red-clothed cannons at the head of Liaoyang city. Although compared with the Ming red-clothed cannons, the number is not dominant, but now they are the defenders of the city.

If Zhu Youjian were to use Qi's army and Xuanjia iron cavalry to attack the city desperately, Zhu Youjian would definitely not do it, because he could not afford to consume these troops.

He doesn't have firearms, he can make them, buy them, or go to the system to exchange them.

But these soldiers are difficult to copy, so he specifically told Qi Jiguang not to fight hard when he attacked the city.

"Captain, they have red cannons, how should I attack the city?"

Qi Jiguang smiled slightly and said:

"This governor has a way."

Qi Jiguang then ordered:
"Soldiers of the Qi family army, immediately take off the armor of the traitors, and pick up their sabers, and quickly gather some uninjured horses. This commander will be useful."

"Yes"

Huang Ming immediately led the Qi family army and began to pick off Shang Kexi's armor, and Li Cunxiao was taken aback for a while.

"Captain, their battle armors are not as good as those of my Ming soldiers, what use are their battle armors?"

Qi Jiguang laughed loudly:
"Don't worry, general, you will soon understand what's going on."

Seeing that Li Cunxiao still didn't quite understand, Qi Jiguang immediately whispered something in his ear, after Li Cunxiao listened, he clasped his fists and saluted Qi Jiguang again:
"The governor is really handsome, and Li admires it."

Shang Kexi personally led the army to rescue his son, and Liaoyang was temporarily entrusted to his other son Shang Zhixiao to guard him. Now that the Eastern Captives have a huge force, there is no army that can be their opponent.

Shang Zhixiao was not worried about his elder brother and father, he thought that there was no one in Liaoyang who could threaten their army.

However, after Shang Kexi left the city, Shang Zhixiao didn't dare to sit still in the commander's mansion. He led his cronies to the top of Liaoyang City, ready to welcome his father's triumphant return.

I thought my father would come back soon, but after half a day, there was still no movement, and none of the scouts sent out came back.

Shang Zhixiao started to become an ant on a hot pot, walking back and forth on the top of the city, wanting to take people out of the city to search, but he didn't dare to disobey the order.

Seeing the master's appearance, the confidantes next to him comforted him one after another:
"Don't worry, Major General. There has been no war in Liaodong for many years, and there is no resistance. The prince will definitely not have any problems. Let us wait patiently."

"Da da da……"

Before the lieutenant could finish his sentence, a cavalry suddenly appeared in the distance. Judging from the flag and armor, it was the cavalry that Shang Kexi took away when he left the city.

As the cavalry got closer, Shang Zhixiao was taken aback. The cavalry they were proud of was actually being chased by other cavalry and fled in embarrassment.

Chasing after them was a black-clothed and black-armored cavalry, very majestic, shooting arrows as they chased them back, and some people in the cavalry team were shot and fell off their horses.

Shang Zhixiao turned pale with shock, and hastily issued an order:

"The artillery is ready. Once the father's cavalry enters the city, immediately blast the cavalry behind me to death."

"Yes"

The [-] red-clothed cannons here are immediately loaded with ammunition, and it is good to be ready for support at any time.

"Open the city gate quickly, the prince is injured by an arrow."

As soon as Shang Kexi's men and horses rushed to the bottom of the city, they began to shout loudly. Hearing that Shang Kexi was hit by an arrow, Shang Zhixiao was even more surprised.

Hastily raised his head to look, and sure enough, he saw his father being carried by a personal guard and riding on a war horse.

He couldn't even ride a war horse, so he must be seriously injured, so Shang Zhixiao immediately ordered the city gate to be opened.

"Quickly, open the city gate and let my father enter the city. Be careful not to let the cavalry rush into the city."

"twitter"

"Squeaky..."

As the suspension bridge was slowly lowered, the city gate was also opened, and the cavalry in front just took advantage of the opportunity to enter the city without any delay.

Seeing that most of his cavalry had already entered the city, and the pursuers were about to catch up, Shang Zhixiao had no choice but to abandon them in order to ensure the safety of the city.

"Quickly, put away the suspension bridge and close the city gate."

The deputy general was full of surprise:

"General, there are still many of us who have not entered the city..."

Shang Zhixiao shouted sharply:
"Execute the order quickly. Didn't you see that the cavalry behind might take the opportunity to enter the city gate? Anyone who disobeys will be killed!"

The deputy general had no choice but to order:
"Quick, put away the suspension bridge and close the city gate."

However, it is no longer within their ability to close the city gate and put away the suspension bridge.

Seeing that the suspension bridge was about to be retracted, a cavalryman suddenly drew a Mo Dao from under the saddle, pointed it at the iron chain, and chopped it down several times.

"Crack clap..."

The iron chain of the suspension bridge was chopped off by him with a knife, and the rebel soldiers guarding the city gate were also hacked to death by other cavalrymen. All this was completed in a short period of time.

"Come on"

"kill"

"Kill all the traitors..."

Some cavalry outside the city and cavalry wearing black armor rushed into Liaoyang City with shouts.

"This...what is this operation?"

Shang Zhixiao was dumbfounded for a moment, but they quickly guessed what was going on, they must have been fooled, this is the enemy's deception, his father must have been in danger.

"Come here, the enemy is cheating the city, ready to fight."

To fight, how to fight, before the soldiers in the city reacted, half of them had been hacked and killed. Shang Zhixiao was so big, and he had never seen such a strong cavalry.

Under the protection of some personal guards, Shang Zhixiao had no choice but to hide in the commander's mansion and ordered the firearms soldiers to strengthen their defenses.

Defrauding the city, of course, is Qi Jiguang's masterpiece. 5000 of them put on the armor of Shang Kexi's cavalry, raised the banner of Shang Kexi, and pretended to flee.

Li Cunxiao's Xuanjia cavalry chased after him closely, and did not give Shang Zhixiao time to think about it. As for Shang Kexi himself, of course he was also pretending to be Qi Jiajun.

Eight thousand Xuanjia iron cavalry and [-] Qi's army killed all the rebel soldiers in the city with little effort, and soon surrounded the commander's mansion.
