Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 591 Chasing down Zhang Xianzhong
Zhu Yousong shot Zhang Xianzhong under the horse with one arrow, put away the bow and arrow, drew out the sword again, and urged the horse to charge forward, intending to cut off Zhang Xianzhong's head.

But when Zhu Yousong's horse was still fifty or sixty steps away from Zhang Xianzhong, a large western army rushed over.

To be precise, this army was chased by the imperial cavalry of the Ming army.They were defeated on the battlefield, just passed by here, and saw their Majesty was shot down by an arrow, so they hurried over to rescue him.

The leading general is Wang Shangli, and this is the chief general of the Chinese army under Zhang Xianzhong. There are four kings under Zhang Xianzhong. Apart from Zhang Xianzhong, these four kings have the highest status. In terms of bravery and ability to lead troops, they are also counted as four. Here are Zhang Xianzhong's four godsons.

If you go down the row, it will be his five army commanders, the former army commander Wang Dingguo, the rear army commander Bai Wenxuan, the left army leader Ma Yuanli, the right army leader Zhang Hualong, and the middle army leader Wang Shangli.

Among the five generals, Wang Shangli is the most powerful in terms of personal bravery, so Zhang Xianzhong is making him the main general of the Chinese army.

At this time, Wang Shangli came to fight Zhu Yousong, and his general Qin Lan led the rest of the soldiers to rescue Zhang Xianzhong on the horse, and ran away after hitting the horse.

Wang Shanglisheng was relatively short, his figure was like a straw basket, and he was sitting on a horse with an iron helmet and iron armor, and he was completely short and fat.

The weapon in Wang Shangli's hand is an eyebrow-level stick. This stick is made of pure metal. It is as thick as a small bowl and is eight feet long. It has been washed with silver water for several times, and it looks bright and shiny. The total weight exceeds [-] jin. , Swing it up and hit Zhu Yousong with a stick.

Zhu Yousong is a martial artist, and he knows that there is a saying among martial arts practitioners that the moon stick is a sword for a lifetime, which means that the technical content of practicing sticks is the lowest, and you can practice kung fu in just a few months, while practicing swords requires a lot of results. In terms of years, it takes several years to practice. The big gun is relatively the most difficult to practice. If you want to practice the big gun, it may take a lifetime.

However, this does not mean that the martial arts skills of stick wielders are low. Relatively speaking, stick wielders are generally strong fighters, such as the short and fat man in front of him.

With the sound of the wind, Wang Shangli's big stick swept towards Zhu Yousong's horse's legs.

Because of his short stature, it was a bit laborious to raise a stick to hit Zhu Yousong's head, so he had to hit the horse's leg, rushing to kill him on the battlefield, and immediately used this trick when he saw a tall one, which was tried and tested repeatedly.

He gave himself a name for this move, it is called Locking the Jade Belt at the Waist. Others use this move to hit the opponent's waist, but he hits the horse's leg.

He smashed the opponent's horse's leg with one stick, and the enemy fell off the horse, and then he smashed the opponent into a pulp with one stick.

But when I met Zhu Yousong today, this trick didn't work.

Zhu Yousong saw that this guy's stick was coming towards his next three sets, and Zhu Yousong also played a trick for him. He neither pulled the horse to dodge, nor used the sword to block his big stick, although Zhu Yousong You Song's sword can easily block his stick.

Zhu Yousong wanted to make a quick decision, and he didn't want to get entangled with him, so he swung his sword and chopped off the head of this little boy.

Now the weapons of the two people are not long enough. Zhu Yousong's sword is more than three feet long, and Wang Shangli's big stick is eight feet long, but the part in his hand occupies a part. Jianfeng was just able to reach him.

It's too late, but it's fast.Wang Shangli's big stick swept over, and then Zhu Yousong's sword also slashed out.

If two people do not control the weapons in their hands, the fight will continue like this.With a click, Wang Shangli's stick will break the leg of Zhu Yousong's war horse.

But immediately afterwards, Zhu Yousong's sword will undoubtedly split Wang Shangli's head in two.

Zhu Yousong didn't care, at most he could ride a group of war horses, but Wang Shangli would be miserable.

A war horse is only crippled, but Wang Shangli has to report to Yan Wangye. This business is really losing money. Of course, Wang Shangli, whose head is not flooded, can't do this.

Wang Shangli had never seen such a style of fighting, but fortunately he reacted quickly, Wang Shangli was so scared that he let out a cry, and quickly withdrew his stick to parry.

Since his stick is shorter than weapons such as swords and spears, it is easier to retreat. This stick was about to hit Zhu Yousong's horse's legs, and Wang Shangli pulled the stick back abruptly, and then came Raise the fire and burn the sky, with both arms struggling upwards in one fell swoop.

Regardless of his small stature, his tricks have changed very quickly, and he has research on big sticks, and his ability to control them is quite strong, otherwise it would be too late.

As a result, Zhu Yousong's sword was slashing on his stick, when there was a clang, sparks flew everywhere.

Wang Shangli believes that Zhu Yousong's sword will have to be released next, because his big stick is a heavy weapon compared to a sword, at least three times as strong as this sword.Moreover, Wang Shangli thought that he was extremely powerful, and it was impossible for Zhu Yousong to fight him. He tried to knock Zhu Yousong's sword away with one stroke of his big stick.

In the end, he was too conceited. It was true that Zhu Yousong's sword was thrown out, but the sword did not fly. On the contrary, Wang Shangli's hands were numb and his arms were sore from the shock, and he couldn't sit still immediately.

In an instant, he felt an irresistible force, pushing his body back, causing him to fall backward from the horse's ass.

However, due to his short stature and agile stature, he stood up as soon as he rolled like a ball, and the big stick in his hand hadn't let go yet.

Wang Shangli was sweating after just this match, knowing that he was definitely not the match of the Great Ming Emperor.

Now of course he recognized Zhu Yousong's identity, and the Huanglong jersey he wore was his unique identity.

Seeing that his majesty Zhang Xianzhong was also rescued by his subordinates, he didn't dare to love to fight, and he didn't want the horse, so he spread his legs, turned and ran away with his big stick upside down.

Don't look at Wang Shangli without a horse, but his two short legs are very fast, and his running is no worse than that of a war horse, it is really fast.

Zhu Yousong galloped his horse to chase after him, when Ma Jinhua, He Xuanjiao, Li Quan, Liu Chunhong and others arrived with dozens of Jinyiwei and a white-armed soldier.

Seeing that their majesty was safe and sound, Li Quan and Liu Chunhong, who were covered in sweat, kept thinking of Amitabha Buddha, and He Xuanjiao and Ma Jinhua felt relieved.

Don't look at Ma Jinhua's mouth saying that she is not worried about Zhu Yousong, but her heart is also hanging, because swords and guns have no eyes on the battlefield, no matter how good Zhu Yousong's martial arts are, with so many Daxi generals, there will inevitably be accidents, Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

From a distance, she saw her Majesty chopping off the short man who wielded a stick with a sword, Ma Jinhua and the others were overjoyed.The more than 1000 of them came to Zhu Yousong like lightning.

Immediately after Ma Wannian, the imperial cavalry and white soldiers led by Zhang Huan also caught up.

Now that Zhu Yousong was more confident, he commanded the Ming army to continue chasing and annihilating Daxi's army, and chased them for more than 20 miles in one breath. It was not until night fell that Zhu Yousong ordered to stop the pursuit and retreat.

However, he found that his wife Gao Guiying had disappeared. He asked his soldiers and said that they hadn't noticed. Zhu Yousong had a vague ominous sign, so he hurriedly dispatched his troops. He personally led people to search around with torches on the battlefield. .
