Go back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to be a soldier

Chapter 179
Li Guoqi was persuaded like this. In fact, who would wipe his neck if he had a chance to survive? These thieves withdrew their troops suddenly, otherwise how could he have failed?
Thinking about this, Li Zongbing felt better. He took more than 500 remnants of the defeated generals to rest fifty or sixty miles south of Yichuan, waiting for reinforcements from all walks of life to wipe out these rogues in one fell swoop, and to avenge the shame of Yichuan's defeat.

But he wasn't waiting here, so he sent three groups of soldiers, one to Yan'an Mansion for Huang Ming to send troops to Yichuan, the other way back to Xi'an Mansion, and then dispatched 500 soldiers to help out. Too few, the third way is to go to Suide to inquire about Lin Yi and the others.

Li Zongbing gave them a death order. The three-way messengers must speed up at a speed of five hundred miles. If any road misses something, they will come to see them first. After the three-way messengers agree, they will ride on a fast horse and carry the arrows without stopping. Run day and night.

Now Yan'an, Xi'an, and Suide are not too far away from Li Guoqi and the others, all of which are hundreds of miles away.

Soon the news came that Lin Yi had won another big victory in Suide, this battle was even more beautiful than the one at Longmen Mountain, the 2 people who had passed Tianxing were wiped out, and Guo Tianxing was shot in the head by Lin Yi with an arrow.

Lin Zongbing has won another battle!Even the stars are finished!
Li Guoqi's more than 500 soldiers were about to cheer, as if they had won the battle, and there was a lot of discussion. The name Lin Yi made them fascinated, and he became the ever-victorious general in their minds. It is really just around the corner to wipe out these thieves, and then you can vent your anger in your chest!
Of course Li Guoqi was the happiest. He wished he could bow to God, but then he felt ashamed in his heart. He was also the commander-in-chief, and even in terms of official position, his Shaanxi commander-in-chief was a step higher than Lin Yi, the Miyun commander-in-chief. There are also many horses, but look at Lin Yi, he wins every battle, and he loses in a row, it's a shame!

But no matter what, the official army and the thieves fought each other, and each had its own outcome. Now it is obvious that the official army has the upper hand. Most of the 1 to [-] thieves have been wiped out, leaving only the more than [-] thieves in Yichuan. The officers and soldiers of the three routes gathered in Yichuan, and these thieves were the turtles in the urn, hard to fly.

Therefore, Li Guoqi and the more than 500 remnants and defeated generals under his command cheered up from the decadence of defeat...

From Suide to Yichuan, four to five hundred miles away, Lin Yi's troops arrived in less than two days.

At the same time, people from Yan'an also came to Yichuan City. The deputy commander-in-chief Huang Ming personally supervised the division. He received Lin Yi's letter, and Li Guoqi's letter. He also did not expect things to change so quickly. and.Originally, the three groups of them were going to join forces in Yan'an Mansion to fight the bandits together, but he also noticed that the bandits suddenly retreated. He was afraid that it was a conspiracy of the bandits, and since there was no news of Lin Yi and Li Guoqi, he didn't dare to act rashly. Go as planned.

Soon came the news of the victory in the Battle of Suide and the defeat in the Battle of Yichuan, both of which shocked him.

He also felt that this General Lin from Miyun was too powerful. He came from afar, and there were not many soldiers, but he won consecutive battles. In just a few days, he wiped out Shetatian, Saotianhu and Guotianxing one after another. Waiting for the three major bandits who have caused headaches for the court for many years, what a credit!

Their commander-in-chief Li Guoqi, on the contrary, suffered another defeat, and this time the defeat was even worse. The 8000 officers and soldiers were almost wiped out.Every battle has a reason, no matter what the reason is, it is always us Shaanxi soldiers who lose. It seems that the soldiers are skilled but not numerous, and the generals are strategic but not brave. This is not false at all!

Huang Ming sighed in his heart, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense. After seeing Lin Yi and Li Guoqi's seal, he didn't dare to neglect, and immediately ordered 5000 troops, leaving more than 1000 troops to guard Yan'an, and drove to the outside of Yichuan city day and night.

Lin Yi's troops camped in the north of the city, and Huang Ming's troops camped in the west of the city. At this time, another thousand cavalry came from Xi'an, and Li Guoqi led 600 people to camp in the south.

To the east of Yichuan is a small river, the water potential is enough to prevent the thieves from escaping into the Luliang Mountains, so more than 1 officers and soldiers have surrounded Yichuan City.

Yichuan City.Liu Thief Buzhemu and Lamp Buguang and others were still immersed in the joy of winning the battle.

For them, this battle was too enjoyable and exhausting.Yichuan was recaptured overnight, thousands of officers and soldiers were killed, and hundreds of those who abandoned their weapons and surrendered were ordered to be sentenced to death if they were not stained with mud and the lights were not lit. The large intestine and the internal organs are released until the person is tortured to death, so the ghosts and wolves in Yichuan City are crying and howling, and these thieves are dancing wildly.

After executing these surrendered officers and soldiers, they began to sit on the ground and divide the spoils.Li Guoqi's 8000 men and horses were beaten to the point that only a few hundred escaped. The loot in the city was piled up like a mountain, not to mention knives and spears. Horses and livestock, dead and half dead, were all skinned and boiled to eat meat What can be used is filled into the army, and the officers and soldiers still have edible, drinkable and valuable things, all of which are divided up, and even those good military uniforms are stripped from the corpses.

Then these thieves began to congratulate Haiti on the victory with Roshan wine.

But just halfway through the congratulations, the bad news came that Suide's passing star was destroyed.

No mud and no light, etc. The wine in my mouth can't be swallowed, and the meat can't be chewed in my mouth. They are all stupid and stunned, and then they discuss with panic.

Some thieves even doubted the accuracy of the news, thinking that the rumors were not credible, Guo Tianxing was both wise and brave, a pair of gauntlets and double hooks bravely won the three armies, and he was good at planning and rich in strategic strategies. How can people be easily wiped out?He has more than 2 horses under him, all of them are good at fighting. Chaoyan sent elite soldiers to drive him out for several years, and he was fine after traveling to several provinces.

But soon their news was confirmed, because the remnants of Guotianxing came back one after another and joined them.

"Jin Yi? It's Lin again!" Buzhanni and Lengbuliang both hated and feared the name when they mentioned it. Of course, they had remembered the name for a long time. Three of their five coalition forces were shut down, five 6 One-fifth of ten thousand people are left within half a month. Can these thieves not have a long memory?

Even the best wine and meat can't be eaten, and the joy of victory has been washed away.A serious question was before them: facing the risk of being encircled and suppressed, what should they do?
The five gangs of thieves now have only two of them left, with 6 or 1 people, and there are only more than [-] people left. If the officers and soldiers are free, they will surely send troops to Yichuan to encircle them. If the officers and soldiers are dead, can Li Guoqi and others give up ?Li Guoqi and that Huang Ming were just tofu generals, so there was nothing to fear. The key Miyun commander, Lin Yi, seemed to be their nemesis, making these rogues panic all day long.

Some advocate a decisive battle with the government and army, some advocate abandoning Yichuan, flee to the mountains, and live in the mountains and forests, and some advocate that this place does not raise thieves, but has its own place to raise thieves, go to Hubei to join Zhang Xianzhong or go to Henan to join Li Zicheng, living people Can it still be called urine suffocation?We can afford to hide if we can't be provoked, and come back when we have the strength. It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.

There were different opinions for a while, and they couldn't agree on what to do, even if they didn't get mud and the lights didn't turn on, they didn't agree.In the end, there were two major factions, one not sticking to the mud, and the other not turning on the lights. Of course, it was the two thieves who had the final say.

In the end, the discussion turned into a quarrel. In the end, the wine bowl was dropped and the table was overturned. The two families tended to break up and go their separate ways.

At this moment, someone came to report that three government troops had come from outside the city and surrounded them.

"Damn, fight with them, brothers copy guys!" The two factions that don't stick to the mud and the lights don't quarrel anymore, and more than 1 thieves all took swords, guns, bows and arrows, and opened all the gates of the city, some of them headed east. , Some go west, some go south, some go north, whoever rushes out will be the most capable, and those who can't rush out can only blame their own short lives.

More than 1 thieves ran out from the four city gates like herding cattle, and rushed towards the officers and soldiers with loud shouts.A life-and-death battle kicked off again.

In terms of numbers, the strength of the two sides is roughly equal, but in terms of combat effectiveness, the more than 1 officers and soldiers are uneven. Lin Yi's Miyun soldiers can be almost ten Shaanxi soldiers, but the more than 1 thieves are also a mob. There are no more than two to three thousand people, and the rest are just pretending to be numbers.

In a scuffle, one of Lin Yibing's guards did not rush out, and all of them were wiped out outside the city not far from the moat.

Then Lin Yi's soldiers launched a charge, attacked the city with unstoppable force, and then rushed out from the city. Finally, the more than 1 thieves were compressed outside the south gate by the three-way army, leaving only Two or 3000 people were trapped in it, and the rest were all beheaded.

"You can't run anymore. If you are sensible, you should abandon your weapons and surrender so that you can survive. Someone Lin solemnly promises that as long as you sincerely surrender, you will never kill and surrender. Otherwise, you will die!" Lin Yi shouted to the thief. His words were amplified by his generals.

The thieves in the encirclement held knives and guns, you looked at me, I looked at you, and then looked at the densely armored officers and soldiers on the four outer, inner, third, and outer layers, and no one spoke.

"Brothers, let's fight with these bright dogs!" the blood-covered non-sticky mud shouted, brandishing a knife, his partner died in the chaos when the lights were off, and now there is only one non-sticky mud left.

But as soon as Buzhemu's words fell, his body shook suddenly, a steel knife pierced through his back heart, and the bloody knife tip protruded from his chest, and the blood was soaring.

The mud-free knife could no longer swing, and his body twitched and turned slowly, wanting to see who was responsible, but he only turned half a circle, and before he could see clearly, he couldn't hold back and fell into a pool of blood , the steel knife in his hand fell to the ground, with unwilling eyes, he died.

"I'm willing to surrender!" shouted the thief who couldn't kill the mud, threw away the bloody knife, and fell to his knees.He took the lead and took the weapons in their hands to surrender.

According to Li Guoqi and Huang Ming, all these people should be exterminated, but Lin Yi had something to say first, and it was inconvenient for them to say more at this time. As a result, all the more than 2000 thieves became prisoners of the government army.

The tens of thousands of thieves in this area have all been wiped out so far, and Li Guoqi, Huang Ming, and Lin Yi celebrated with each other.The two general soldiers praised Lin Yi for his great achievements, and praised him to the sky.

When cleaning up the loot and sharing the battle exploits, Lin Yi is a guest from afar after all, and he can't turn his back on the guest, nor can he overwhelm the guest. On his one-acre three-point land, the strong dragon still doesn't overwhelm the local snake. Besides, Li Guoqi and Huang Ming have no credit but hard work .

Therefore, Lin Yi said very generously: In the first battle of Yichuan, he only needs to take prisoners, and he can give up the rest.Li Guoqi and Huang Ming were secretly happy.
