Start with Baihuguan

Li Huan saw the reaction of the crowd, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but then he said straightly: "It's too early to say this now, you must know that King Ning and his confidants have not been arrested. If you let King Ning and others escape from birth, it may not cause another storm."

Hearing what Li Huan said, Xu Yu and the others also had a serious look on their faces. They naturally knew that what Li Huan said was not unreasonable.

The biggest threat to King Ning's rebel army is King Ning. It can be said that in the eyes of some people with ulterior motives and ulterior motives, King Ning is a big banner. As long as King Ning is still there, King Ning can be used to attack the court.

Therefore, as long as King Ning and his subordinates are not captured alive this time, the rebellion of King Ning will not be completely suppressed.

Xu Yu took a deep breath and said slowly: "Not long ago, I sent someone to capture King Ning. I hope everything goes well."

Before capturing King Ning, even Xu Chu did not dare to say that he would be able to capture King Ning alive, after all, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents during the process.

Let's say that King Ning, surrounded by Yang Dai and a group of confidantes, took part of the elite out of the camp while taking advantage of the chaos, chose a direction and ran all the way.

The carriage creaked and creaked. On the carriage, King Ning had a gloomy face at the moment, cursing non-stop.

"God damn Li Huan, if it wasn't for this bastard, this king might have already broken through the city of Nanjing and ruled with that foolish king!"

Obviously, in King Ning's opinion, the reason why he fell into the current situation was entirely because of Li Huan.

After all, since he started his army, it can be said that everything has gone so smoothly. He has soldiers and food, and in just a few months, he has received the support of a large number of people, and he has pulled up a team of 30 million people. There are a lot of people coming.

He even killed all the way to the city of Nanjing, seeing that the city of Nanjing was in sight, but the original good luck seemed to disappear all of a sudden, replaced by successive unsatisfactory events.

It can be said that with the appearance of Li Huan, everything went wrong for him. First, he attacked Nanjing at night but was seen through by Jin Yiwei.

Originally seeing the hopeful grand plan and hegemony go so far away, King Ning can say that he can't wait to swallow Li Huan alive.

Sitting in the carriage, Wang Jia, Liu Yangzheng, and Li Shishi were all silent.

At this time, a fool could see that King Ning was in a fit of anger. No matter who spoke to persuade him, he would probably be taken as a target of anger by King Ning.

Finally, when King Ning was tired of scolding Li Huan, the carriage became quieter.

Wang Jia, who was stroking his beard, glanced at King Ning, and said with a bit of solemnity in his eyes: "My lord, what is the next step, do you know what your lord's plan is?"

After this defeat, King Ning's momentum can be said to have been greatly reduced, and it can even be described as embarrassing.

Originally, hundreds of thousands of troops were in hand, and their prestige shook the huge Jiangnan land, and even the whole Ming Dynasty looked sideways at them. However, so many soldiers and horses were lost in one battle. It is conceivable that if the news spreads, it will make people How many people dropped their jaws in shock.

At this time, King Ning must consider where to go to make a comeback. If there is no clear goal, those who still follow King Ning will leave one by one.

So what King Ning has to do at this time is to stabilize people's hearts. Although the loss of hundreds of thousands of troops in World War I brought King Ning back to the pre-liberation period, as long as those who follow King Ning and represent all forces are willing to follow King Ning, then King Ning will have a chance to make a comeback.

This is why Wang Jia suddenly asked King Ning about his future plans at this time.

It was obvious that King Ning hadn't reacted from the shadow of the great defeat. Hearing Wang Jia's words at this moment, his face showed a bit of bewilderment, and he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all.

Not only King Ning, but also Li Shishi and Liu Yangzheng, who have always been regarded by King Ning as having done something wrong, are still not on the stage in terms of the overall situation, which is much worse than Wang Jialai.

After all, if the two of them really have an overall view, it is impossible for them to commit themselves to King Ning, a local vassal.

It can be said that looking at the Ming Dynasty, how many scholars who are truly talented and learned are willing to join the vassal kings in those places.

Li Shishi and Liu Yangzheng looked at Wang Jia in puzzlement.

Seeing the expressions and reactions of several people, Wang Jia couldn't help but secretly sighed, and Dang even explained it to King Ning.

And King Ning's complexion changed drastically when he heard Wang Jia's words. It was related to whether he had any hope of making a comeback in the future, or it was directly related to his life and death. Naturally, King Ning did not dare to ignore it.

King Ning grabbed Wang Jia's hand, looked at Wang Jia with a begging face, and said, "Please teach the Gu again! I hope the old man can show Gu a bright way. If he wins the world in the future, the Gu Wang will I will definitely live up to the old man."

Until this time, King Ning was still thinking about fighting for the world, so it can only be said that thieves never die.

On the contrary, Wang Jia showed a bit of relief when he heard the words. If King Ning was disheartened, then the problem would be serious.

After all, these people are equivalent to being on King Ning's thief ship. No matter what, they have been tied to King Ning from the moment they boarded Ning King's thief ship, and they are all prosperous and all damaged.

Maybe those local tyrants still have the opportunity to quietly disembark and draw a line with King Ning because they are not conspicuous enough, but for some local tycoons, squires and even officials such as Wang Jia, they have never looked back at all. If there is no chance, we can only go to the dark with King Ning.

These people can also be said to be the most loyal to King Ning at this time, or they have no choice but to continue to support King Ning.

Wang Jia analyzed the situation he was facing for King Ning little by little, and the eyes of King Ning gradually became brighter.

I have to say that Wang Jia's words gave King Ning a little more confidence. You must know that since the big defeat, the reason why King Ning cursed Li Huan so frantically was to suppress the fear in his heart.

He is very clear that he has lost this time, if he is not careful, he will fall into the hands of the court, and there is only death waiting for him.

Moreover, King Ning doesn't understand the thoughts of those people who are with him now, he doesn't know what are the thoughts of those people who are with him now, and whether they are credible.

At this time, if someone suddenly jumped out and chose to take him down and hand him over to the court in exchange for the court's pardon, King Ning would not be surprised at all.

Listening to Wang Jia's analysis now, King Ning found that although his situation was very bad, he had not yet reached the point of betrayal as he had feared.

Letting out a long breath of foul air, King Ning looked at Wang Jia with a grateful face and said, "Sir, what you said made this king suddenly enlightened. Mr. Ben Wang is like a fish in water..."

Wang Jia coughed lightly and looked at King Ning and said: "As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about firewood. As long as the prince can escape this time, then there must be a chance to make a comeback in the future, but you must make up your mind now. , to determine where we are going next."

If he ran around like a headless chicken without a purpose like this, he might not be able to escape the court's arrest in the end.Besides, if there is no clear goal, then in a day or so, most of the defeated soldiers who followed King Ning will probably disperse.

King Ning frowned, and subconsciously glanced at Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi.

It's a pity that Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi didn't have any good suggestions at this time. Finally, King Ning looked at Wang Jia and said, "I don't know why sir taught me?"

Speaking of which, King Ning subconsciously said: "Or let's go back to Nanchang Mansion..."

"No!"

Wang Jia said almost instinctively.

King Ning looked at Wang Jia with some confusion, as if he didn't quite understand why Wang Jia would prevent him from returning to Nanchang Mansion.

After all, in King Ning's view, Nanchang Mansion is where his old nest is located. Only by returning to Nanchang Mansion after this defeat can he recover in the shortest possible time and make a comeback.

Wang Jia shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Your Highness knows the importance of Nanchang Mansion to His Highness. Could it be that the court doesn't know about it? Then Li Huan is extremely treacherous. If the old man is right, he must already be on his way to Nanchang Mansion." There are ambushes on the road, just waiting for us to throw ourselves into the trap."

King Ning's complexion changed slightly, and he said with a look of fear, "Ah, what should I do?"

Suddenly there was a commotion from outside, and someone vaguely heard shouting loudly: "It's not good, the court's pursuers are catching up, everyone run away!"

I don't know how many times this is, but even so, King Ning still couldn't help showing panic and said to the outside when he heard the movement outside: "General Yang, what happened to the court's pursuers?"

Every time the court's pursuers catch up, Yang Dai will dispatch some rebels to stop them to buy time for them to escape. It can be said that after each time, King Ning has pinned his hopes on Yang Dai, which is called a trust and reliance on Yang Dai.

Yang Dai's slightly hoarse voice came from the outside and said: "My lord, don't worry, you will be there, and you will definitely keep your lord safe and sound."

After listening to Yang Dai's words, King Ning breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, I have a general escorting me!"

Outside, Yang Dai was not as relaxed as he appeared to be. Looking at the cavalry team chasing after him billowing in smoke and dust, Yang Dai's face was full of solemnity.

Originally, there were almost thousands of elites who escaped from the camp with them. It is not an exaggeration to say that these thousands of people are elites. Except for Wei, the rest are the confidantes of each family.

It's just that some people who were lucky enough to flee along the way left quietly halfway, and some people didn't know whether they were alive or dead because they stayed to block the pursuers.

Up to now, there are less than 2000 soldiers who are still with them.

There are less than two thousand troops, although at first glance the number is quite large, but they are under different ownership, at least half of the troops are obedient to Yang Dai's orders. And know.

Yang Dai looked at the black mass of cavalrymen chasing up, and for the first time showed a dignified look on his face.

In the previous waves of chasing soldiers, Yang Dai only left a part of the troops and stopped them, but this time Yang Dai lost his previous confidence.

In fact, these cavalry are not comparable to those waves of chasing soldiers at first glance.

The previous waves of chasing soldiers were actually those nobles from Nanjing City who brought their generals and some soldiers and horses. These people wanted to capture King Ning to make a contribution, but it is obviously unrealistic to let them work hard of.

Besides, there is no problem with the soldiers and horses defending the city of Nanjing, but they are not considered elite. Once they encounter rebels desperately, they will show their true colors.

This time it was Chen Ang's more than a thousand cavalry who caught up.

Li Huan naturally understood the principle of capturing the thief first and capturing the king first. When Li Huan led the army to attack King Ning's rebel camp, Li Huan had already arranged for Chen Ang and Xu Ying to lead a part of their troops to look for King Ning among the rebellious army. in order to capture King Ning alive.

It's just that King Ning escaped decisively, so by the time Chen Ang found clues to catch up, King Ning and his party had already taken advantage of the chaos and escaped.

However, Chen Ang pursued all the way, and finally his hard work paid off, and he caught up with King Ning and his party.

Looking at the chaotic scene in front of him, Chen Ang's eyes flashed brightly, and he looked back at the men who had been chasing for most of the night and showed a bit of fatigue, and immediately shouted: "All soldiers, the front is King Ning Waiting for a group of rebels, are you willing to follow this general to capture them alive and present them to the court?"

A group of soldiers suddenly felt as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

All fools know that if they can capture King Ning alive, the credit can be said to be great. At that time, they dare not say that they will be promoted to three ranks, and they will be rewarded for it.

It can be said that the greatest contribution to this battle was the capture of King Ning alive. Now that the opportunity is in front of them, it's no wonder they are not tempted.

"The general is mighty, the general is mighty!"

The crowd's morale was soaring, shouting in their mouths, and at the same time followed Chen Ang and rushed towards the rebels ahead.

At this time, Yang Dai was yelling at his somewhat flustered subordinates, and as always, Yang Dai divided hundreds of troops to stay to block them.

However, Yang Dai was disappointed this time. The troops he stayed to block were no match for the elite cavalry led by Chen Ang. They were directly submerged by the torrent of cavalry without even blocking a charge.

Yang Dai, who was about to protect King Ning and continue on his way, only heard a scream from behind, and then saw the broken soldiers who were overwhelmed by the cavalry.

Yang Dai was obviously stunned by this scene. He never thought that the cavalry under Chen Ang's troops would be so terrifying. It was just a shock. Hundreds of soldiers who were determined to die did not even have a wave. There was movement.

"Hiss, this... is this the elite division of the imperial court? Could it be that the champion Hou personally led the army to catch up?"
