Aspiration

Chapter 96 Taking Down Luoyang Alone
The signs of Luoyang's peripheral offensive are becoming more and more obvious.The commotion in the city is becoming more and more difficult to control.

There have been more than a dozen incidents of making wages, and Wang Shaoyu's general soldiers have beheaded seventeen leaders.However, at this time, using force to suppress it was counterproductive. Once Li Zicheng's troops started to attack, no matter how powerful Wang Shaoyu was, he could not suppress it.

Lu Weiqi thought that he had high prestige and was a highly respected retired veteran of Luoyang, so he stepped forward and went up to the city wall in a sedan chair.

He came to the south gate, which was the main direction of Li Zicheng's siege.He came to cheer up.

He used to be the minister of the Ministry of War. Although he was the virtual minister of the shadow cabinet in Nanjing, he has studied the art of war.He said to Wang Shaoyu: "The three armies can seize the spirit, and the general can seize the heart. That's why the energy of the morning is sharp, the energy of the day is lazy, and the energy of the evening returns. Therefore, those who are good at using soldiers should avoid their sharp energy and strike their lazy return. This is the one who controls the energy. To rule Waiting for chaos, waiting for uproar with calmness, this is the one who controls the heart. Waiting for near to far, waiting for labor with loss, waiting for hunger with fullness, this is also the one who controls strength. Without inviting the banner of righteousness, without striking the dignified Chen, this is the one who controls change Also." Although Li Zicheng has many soldiers and generals this time, he, Lu Weiqi, believes that as long as the morale of the soldiers and the people is boosted, the victory is more than [-]%.

Therefore, he has to come to boost morale himself.

However, what he didn't expect was that he encountered trouble just as he went up the south gate wall, and it was not an ordinary trouble.As soon as he climbed the wall, he was surrounded by a group of people.

"pay pay pay pay"

Around Lu Weiqi, countless soldiers shouted a chant, just two words: "Pay!"

"Everyone, everyone," Lu Weiqi shouted.However, his words were covered by the sound of "sounding".

"pay pay pay pay"

Lu Weiqi panicked, he glanced at his soldiers and generals.He has a powerful general who is tall and has a loud voice. He shouted: "Shut up! Didn't you hear Master Lu?"

"Pay, pay, pay!" The soldiers continued to clamor.

"shut up!"

"pay pay pay pay"

"Crack!" The steel knife was unsheathed, and he yelled, "Whoever makes any more noise, chop!"

He stopped drinking and fell silent.

After three seconds of silence, someone stood up.

"You dare?"

The person who stood up was none other than Li Laiheng.Except for the few brothers he brought with him, the other people around him were officers and soldiers who were bewitched by him, and among them was General Wu Kui.

There is nothing that Lu Weiqi's relatives dare not do. Relying on Lu Weiqi's power, he has long become a habit of bullying others. Now, although there are many people in the city, he is not afraid, especially when he sees a young man in his twenties come forward. He is afraid of the ball.

"Boy, you want to take the lead in making noise, don't you?" He grinned grimly.The most effective way for officials to suppress mass incidents is to kill chickens and show them to monkeys.He spotted the chicken in front of him.

Li Laiheng chuckled, "Even if I take the lead, you dare to kill me?"

The general laughed, raised the steel knife in his hand, and the cold light flashed, everyone exclaimed, a head rolled on the stone slab on the city wall, and there was a lot of blood on the ground, even on Lu Weiqi's face.

Li Laiheng smiled.

No one else saw him draw a sword.The moment the general raised his sword, he drew his sword and slashed it down, so fast that no one could see clearly.

Lu Weiqi was over 70 years old, and he was about to meet the god of death. Today, when he saw this bloody scene, he was shocked. Then, his heart tightened, and his heart beat wildly.

"Master Lu! Master Lu!" After a burst of urgent shouts, Lu Weiqi curled up on the cold stone slab.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!" His soldiers panicked, because they knew that Lu Weiqi's old illness had broken out.He had a heart attack.Li Laiheng knew that this was called a myocardial infarction, and it was hopeless.

Prepare to send a signal to the outside of the city, you can attack the city.

Suddenly, a group of officers and soldiers rushed over.

Wang Shaoyu came with his own barracks.He heard that Lu Weiqi had gone to the city wall to boost morale, and knowing that something must happen, he hurried over with his troops.When I saw it, it was already too late, Mr. Lu was dead.

Trouble, the former minister of the Ministry of War died in his own army, how can he report to the court?

"Take them all down!" Wang Shaoyu was so courageous that he dared to use high-pressure policies at this time.That's right, heavy codes are used in troubled times. In this chaotic situation, there is only one way to cut the mess quickly.He pointed at the thirty or forty people around Li Laiheng, shouted at his soldiers and generals, and arrested them.

Military orders are like mountains.As soon as Wang Shaoyu gave an order, his own soldiers and generals rushed forward to arrest Li Laiheng and others.

For this kind of melee combat, Li Laiheng only needs a few people without the help of others, this is their specialty.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

Their swords flew across the necks of Wang Shaoyu's personal soldiers and generals. The jugular artery and vein, trachea, esophagus, and peripheral nerves, as well as muscles and fascia were all severed with just one knife and one sword.

The people around were stunned.They discovered for the first time that it is possible to kill like this, and it is possible to kill with such skill.

In the end, there was only one Wang Shaoyu left.

"Who are you?" Wang Shaoyu asked.

"Li Laiheng, under King Chuang's command!"

Everyone was shocked.They have all heard of Li Laiheng's name, and they all know that this man will kill the general in every battle.

There was a moment of silence, and suddenly, first came Wu Kui, followed by the voices of several people, then dozens, hundreds, and finally, thousands of people cheered in unison: "God of War!"

"Mars!"

"Mars!"

"Open the gate and welcome King Chuang!" Li Laiheng jumped to the highest point of the city wall and shouted loudly.

The south gate opened, then the east, and finally the west and north gates.Chuangwang striker Li Guo led 5000 troops into the city!
Wang Shaoyu was captured alive.

King Fu was captured.

His inner city didn't resist at all. Zhang Nai led 200 people into the palace. He hid in a cellar, and was led by the eunuch Zhang Nai to bring King Fu out.

Killing King Fu is much more lively than killing King Yong'an.King Yong'an is a little king, far away from Emperor Chongzhen, and King Fu is the uncle of Emperor Chongzhen.

Kill him and shock the government and the public!

Kaifeng.

Li Fengxian waited for no news from Luoyang.Since Kaifeng was cut off from Luoyang ten days ago, he knew that Luoyang was not safe.However, he didn't dare to report to the court rashly, for fear that the court would blame him and lose his head.He also vaguely hoped that Luoyang Wang Shaoyu and others would defend each other desperately, and finally killed Li Zicheng and fled in defeat.He looked forward and hoped every day, and whenever a sergeant came, he thought it was the military report of the Luoyang victory.

However, the result of waiting so hard to come to Luoyang was beyond his expectations.There has never been a big battle in Luoyang City, not even a small battle.

When Luoyang fell, Li Fengxian was terrified and issued five orders: The first order: every city gate strictly checks spies to prevent the enemy from entering the city.

The second order: From now on, the whole city is under martial law.

The third order: The hundreds of miles around Kaifeng belong to the first-line war zone, and a large number of sentries are sent out hundreds of miles away.

The fourth order: Henan troops muster to Kaifeng.Ask Beijing for help.Defend Kaifeng City.

The fifth order: Anyone who discovers Li Laiheng's whereabouts and reports clues will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, and will be promoted to a level official; whoever beheads Li Laiheng's head will be rewarded with 1 taels of silver, and promoted to a three-level official.

Li Laiheng took Luoyang City by himself, and the rumor spread quickly.

Li Laiheng's impression portrait was released at the four major city gates. He was drawn a bit like Nezha in an ancient book.

Li Laiheng won Luoyang City by himself, and this kind of exaggerated legend is actually believed by some people.I really don't understand, but Governor Li Fengxian believed it too.What's even more strange is that when the news reached Beijing, Chongzhen also believed it.

Beijing Bauhinia City.

Emperor Chongzhen's eyes were still red, he had cried just now.

King Fu, his uncle, was actually killed by Li Zicheng, how could he not be sad?
Chongzhen had a problem that he didn't understand.

Where did Li Zicheng come from?

Chen Xinjia tremblingly waited for Chongzhen to speak.Now when Emperor Chongzhen asked Li Zicheng where he came from, he broke into a cold sweat.Fortunately, there is a dead ghost who can take advantage of it.

"Back to the emperor, when the former supervisor Yang Sichang, Lord Yang, was chasing Zhang Xianzhong, he sent Zuo Liangyu to destroy Li Zicheng and Yunyang Mountain. Unexpectedly, this Li Zicheng died and came back to make trouble again." His meaning is obvious, is Yang Sichang lied about the military situation, so today's disaster happened.

Chongzhen was silent for a while, and then asked: "There is a Li Laiheng. I heard that he took Luoyang by himself. What kind of person is he?"

"Back to the emperor, according to the spy report, there is a young man under Li Zicheng who always kills the general in every battle. The fall of Luoyang this time is indeed related to him. He mixed in the city, bewitched the hearts of the people, and instigated the generals to stir up rebellion. Fallen." Chen Xinjia replied.

Chongzhen was silent for a while, and said: "Is there no one who can kill him in the battle? Aren't Zuo Liangyu, He Renlong, and Cao Bianjiao all the famous generals you mentioned? Why, they can't do anything to him?"

How dare Chen Xinjia tell the truth?Zuo Liangyu, He Renlong, and Cao Bianjiao were all defeated by Li Laiheng, and among them, Cao Bianjiao could not afford to be seriously injured.He was worried that the emperor was too worried about Li Laiheng, so he said that these generals should be evenly matched with Li Laiheng.

Chongzhen heard some comforting words in his words, and didn't blame him. After a long while, he said: "It is said that Wu Sangui has the courage of all men, and Wu Sangui should be able to kill Li Laiheng."

Chongzhen seems to be talking to himself.Wu Sangui was in the Shanhaiguan area, and Li Laiheng was no match for him.

"Cao Huachun, Li Zicheng has Li Laiheng under Li Zicheng, you should find a way to get rid of him." Emperor Chongzhen trusted Dongchang very much.

"Yes, your majesty, please rest assured, the slave will start to deal with it immediately." Cao Huachun replied.

"Did Jin Yiwei not move?"

"Back to the emperor, Jin Yiwei has been tracking him for two years, in vain."

"Huh? It's been in vain for two years?" Chongzhen asked in astonishment.

In his impression, Jin Yiwei and Dongchang are omnipotent.Since Jin Yiwei hasn't killed Li Laiheng after chasing him for two years, then this man is really powerful.
