Chapter 138 Meet Again
The moonlight was like water, Yingshan County was extremely quiet late at night. The peasant army in Xicheng was still sleeping in their dreams. The soldiers' faces were covered with peaceful smiles, but the undercurrents under the city were surging.
"I seemed to hear a strange movement in the forest ahead. Should we go over and take a look!"
Outside the city gate, the short and strong man standing guard touched the arm of a person next to him.
"What will happen in the middle of the night? Besides, there are tens of thousands of troops stationed within ten miles outside the city. It is very safe here. Don't meddle in other people's business with rats."
The tall and thin man yawned with a spear, and just wanted to snatch it for a while, but he was hit by a short and strong man again.
"Look, there is light!"
The short and strong man rubbed his sleepy eyes and was about to say hello to the city when he was pierced by the whistling feather arrows, and together with the tall and thin ones, he was nailed to the city gate by a bow and arrow!
"The enemy is coming!"
With these screams, the sleeping peasant soldiers woke up and were too busy to pick up their weapons and take their place.
In order to prevent the Ming army from attacking, Li Laihun specially sent 10,000 troops to guard the periphery, so the strength of the defending city also decreased. There were only two thousand people in the west city, which was the weakest link in the garrison.
The Ming army had very strong firepower. Although they did not have heavy guns and cannons, the low walls of Yingshan City were broken and the airtight terrifying arrow formation was enough to constitute a great lethality.
When the peasant army recovered, the Ming army had already crossed the city wall and the two sides fought fiercely.
The defender of Xicheng, Su Fang, was a middle-aged man in his early forties. He was tall and powerful. The war was urgent. This guy didn't even have time to wear armor and went into battle with bare shirt and personally led the guards to withstand the crazy offensive of the Ming army.
The sudden tug-of-war broke the original tranquility. The peasant army in the city gathered towards the west gate like an hourglass. In just over a moment, tens of thousands of reinforcements gathered in the narrow and crowded defense line in the west.
"Su Fang, what's the current situation?"
Under the city gate, Li Laiheng immediately shouted loudly with his sword.
Hearing the commander's name, Su Fang hurriedly ran down, covered his bloody right arm and gasped, saying, "Report to General, the thief has been repelled outside the city, and the last general is preparing to encircle and annihilate him!"
Li Laiheng looked outside the city, scratched his head and muttered to himself, "It's so weird, how did Mingjun come in..."
The war was as urgent as a tiger. Li Laiheng did not dare to delay at all. He quickly divided the 10,000 troops under his command into three, one of which reinforced the Soviet troops from the front, and the other two surrounded the invading Ming troops.
Under Li Laiheng's command, the peasant army quickly stabilized its position, and the three armies continued to detour and cut the Ming army into several pieces in an instant.
"Tell me the order to capture Yu Wan, the leader of the thief army, alive!"
Since being defeated by Yu Wan, Li Laiheng has been unable to eat the sun and sleep at night, and he always wants to repay this great humiliation.
I saw him roaring like thunder eyes and tiger gall, holding a knife in one hand and slapped his horse to search for Yu Wan's traces everywhere.
Wherever they went, the Ming soldiers were on their horses and no one dared to stop them. After a few rounds, they had killed thirty or forty people on the horses!
"The person surnamed Li, I will take your grandfather Xu Hu's axe!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a strong and dark-skinned boy came on a horse and instantly ran into several spearmen. When Li Laiheng came to his senses, the cold giant axe had already slashed at his head!
Finally, Li Laiheng was quick to react after many battles. He hurriedly hurriedly avoided the axe when he swung his axe. The steel sword in his hand suddenly collided with him, which made his palm sore that his mouth was numb, and he almost even fell off his weapons.
"So vigorous, but you are not my opponent, you are called Yu Wanlai!"
"Shaojiu, let's talk about it after passing Grandpa Xu!"
After Yu Wan's guidance and practical training, Xu Hu's axe skills have made great progress, and he can deal with him even when facing a quasi-first-class general like Li Laiheng.
The two men galloped on their horses with a knife and axe, fighting from outside the city to the city. They fought fiercely for fifty rounds without a chance of winning or losing. There were countless soldiers they affected.
"Brothers, they can't stand it anymore, kill it!"
Su Fang led a short sword hand into the belly of the Ming army. As the encirclement continued to shrink, the Ming army had lost nearly a thousand people, and the blood soaked the grass outside the city into a wet area.
Although the axe has great lethality, it consumes physical strength. Even if it is as strong as Xu Hu, he will be exhausted and sweaty after fighting for 100 rounds. If Pei Yingying had not come in time to help, he would have been told to Li Laiheng's sword long ago.
Just as the Shun Army thought the victory was scheduled, suddenly, they heard the horse's hooves ringing in the city, and dozens of Shun Army soldiers ran and shouted:
"The general is not good! A large number of thieves are coming from the northeast, and the brothers can't hold on!"
Everyone looked around and saw that the streets were crowded with people as bright as daylight, and countless Ming troops rushed over from all directions!
"What?!"
Li Laiheng was shocked all over. Looking at the Ming army that was so close, he woke up like a dream and suddenly realized, "Damn it! I was hit by Yu Wansheng's plan to attack the east and dig the tiger away from the mountain!"
"Why, want to run away?"
Pei Yingying shouted and stepped forward to stop Li Laiheng. The sword in his hand was as fast as lightning, and all his moves were about to take his life. Taking advantage of his panic, Xu Hu had an idea and slashed at Li Laiheng's mount with an axe.
The war horse immediately neighed with sadness and choked, and threw Li Laiheng under the horse. The poor Duke of Lin Daguo became a prisoner in Xu Hu's hands before he even turned the corner.
"Those who surrender are exempt from death!"
Xu Hu held Li Laiheng in his left hand and a big iron axe in his right hand. He swaggered to the peasant army surrounded by soldiers from the Imperial Guard Camp.
The city was lost and the chief general was captured. There was no point in fighting again. In troubled times, it was all about making a living. No one really wanted to work hard for Li Zicheng.
It’s not easy to say that Xu Hu had already turned against each other and helped the Ming army tie up their comrades who were fighting stubbornly, and surrendered to the official army one after another.
"Li Laiheng, we're meeting again."
Zhu Jun consciously gave up a way. At the source of the sound, Yu Wan walked slowly in a big red battle robe, with harmless smiles on his face, but his clear eyes were filled with a mature and steadfast who was not in line with his age.
"If you want to kill or cut, you will be a bitch if I, Li Laiheng, blinked!"
"I don't know if you are raised by a bitch, but what is certain is that you are not raised by humans. If you can do something like massacre, will you really treat yourself as a character?"
