Chapter 438 Success

"Go quickly and jump off the tree." Zhan Yunpeng shouted.

The alcohol sprinkled burned violently in the fire, but fortunately the trees were not high. Li Yan jumped, fell to the ground and spread his arms.

After all, Ms. Hong was not healed under severe injuries, so she hesitated and jumped down. Li Yan hugged her tightly and gently put her down. The rest of the people also jumped down, only Langzhong Qin was clumsy and rolled down. Fortunately, Zhan Yunpeng and Zhao Yun caught him in time.

The six people escaped and felt like they were a different life. I didn’t know what was in the mind of His Royal Highness. This was simply terrible.

Zhu Cilang, who can make everyone feel terrible, can only make the enemy afraid.

Li Zicheng was very scared, and he never dreamed of why, why did officers and soldiers have such terrible weapons? No, this is not just a weapon. The hot air balloon has exceeded Li Zicheng's cognition range.

When Liu Zongmin came back, he was furious and found that he had been fooled by Li Yan. He was in Laoyagou. They were ambushed for a long time and didn't even see a ghost. Any fake death plan, there was no medicine in this world that could stop the heartbeat. All of this was Li Yan's trick.

After thinking it through, Liu Zongmin hurriedly returned to the camp. He wanted to tell the King of Chuang that Li Yan was cheating. We can't wait any longer, so we took Li Yan and Hong Niangzi outside Luoshan County to force the officers and soldiers in the city to surrender.

But who knew that Liu Zongmin only found out that Hong Niangzi, Li Yan and others had already escaped after returning to the camp.

The corpse on the ground was in a mess. After fighting for half a lifetime, Liu Zongmin had never seen such a terrifying scene. The lethality caused by black gunpowder also exceeded Liu Zongmin's cognition. The Ming munitions are indeed powerful, and their muskets are sharp but they are not unavailable to deal with them. Their cannons are fierce but they are just enhanced versions of stone throwing machines. Liu Zongmin has seen them and suffered losses.

The Ming army's cannons were all solid bullets when bombed out. There was no such tragic scene in front of us, and one explosion was like throwing a stone in the water, and the splashes spread out. The difference is that the explosion was the human body. The explosion of a shell was in such a dense crowd. At the least, seven or eight people were at worst, dozens of casualties.

Such a powerful weapon is something that everyone has never seen. In addition, it has been seen by Huang Taiji outside Yizhou City. At that time, the Qing army was really silly, and Huang Taiji was also scared.

The horror of gunpowder enveloped the mortal enemies of the Ming Dynasty. Whether you are the Qing Dynasty or the bandits, this will be their eternal nightmare.

"King of Chuang, do you mean that they fell from the sky?" Liu Zongmin opened his eyes wide in horror. No matter how he looked, it was like a fantasy. If he hadn't seen the casualties on the ground, Liu Zongmin would never believe that anyone could go to heaven.

Li Zicheng shook his head: "It's not falling, it's falling. They were riding in a huge fireball, like a large Kongming lantern, landing in our military camp. After rescuing the Hongniang, they flew away again on the Kongming lantern. The God of Fire is the God of Fire."

Li Zicheng, who has always been heroic, had a blank look at his eyes at this time. Huge fear enveloped his heart, and a hot air balloon came. If the officers and soldiers came five or six or even dozens of hot air balloons and bombarded Li Zicheng's military camp. Then, the one lying on the ground at this time was probably Li Zicheng's own body.

Not only Li Zicheng was scared, but the soldiers left in the camp were even more dismal. Many people still firmly believe that it was the God of Fire that was furious and came down to the earth to punish them. After all, bandits were burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil.

Whether you admit it or not, they make a living by robbing. This makes the God of Fire angry, and it is reasonable.

Liu Zongmin didn't believe it, but he couldn't help but believe it. In order to win people's hearts, he had to instruct his subordinates: "Take the wounded down for treatment, and the dead are buried on the spot. King of Chuang, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, we should evacuate."

Bandits are flowing bandits. They cannot stay in one place for a long time, so they will not be able to obtain supplies.

The reason why he stayed in Wutai Mountain to camp was that Li Zicheng was to take down Luoshan County as soon as possible. For this reason, Liu Zongmin robbed seven or eight counties around him. In order to supplement the army's supplies.

Now, the strategic significance here has been lost. The Hongniang was rescued by Li Yan, and Luoshan County could not be captured. What's even more terrifying is that they don't know how many such terrifying weapons the officers and soldiers have. Retreat is the only choice.

Li Zicheng also knew that Henan would not be able to think about it. Henan is now as solid as a rock. As expected, Sun Chuanting's reinforcements will arrive soon. If they don't run away, they will have to leave here.

The vast seas are everywhere, where can I go? Zhang Xianzhong went to Sichuan and it is said that he had built a considerable piece of land in Sichuan. There was no chance to go north, and the only territory left for Li Zicheng was the Huguang area.

If Huguang is familiar, the world will be sufficient. This is the main production area of ​​the Ming granary, and the Ming army has 16 prefectures under its jurisdiction, and there are always areas where defense is relatively weak. Although going south will inevitably cause some friction with Zhang Xianzhong, for Li Zicheng, it is the best choice at present.

Li Zicheng was preparing to evacuate Mount Wutai and go south to Huguang. Although the future was unknown, the Ming army in Huguang was not a vegetarian. But he had no choice. The army of more than 100,000 troops was separated. Some people began to think about leaving Li Zicheng and making a living.

Zhu Cixuan had already arranged an army outside the city to support him. Except for the Qin Langzhong who was slightly injured, the rest of the people returned safely.

For a time, the officers and soldiers of Luoshan County were cheering and the people even greeted each other.

Zhu Cilang welcomed everyone outside the city. When he saw everyone, Li Yan took the Hongniang and bowed. Zhu Cilang was very happy: "Heroes, please calm down. I have heard of Hongniang's name for a long time. When I see you today, it is really worthy of your reputation, hahaha."

Unlike the shyness of his daughter's family, Hong Niangzi was so heroic. She bowed to Zhu Cilang: "Your Highness the Crown Prince forgives the crime, but it is the officials who have dragged everyone down."

Love the house and Wu, Zhu Cilang valued Li Yan. He was also very enthusiastic about Hong Niangzi. In addition, she defended Luoshan County and said happily: "Hong Niangzi resisted the powerful enemy and defended Luoshan County. The people in the city were free from slaughtered by thieves, and even saved the land of Henan. How could they be implicated? Let's go, everyone will enter the city together."

Only Zhan Yunpeng looked ashamed: "Your Highness, our hot air balloon has some malfunction and crashed on the way, and it has been burned to ashes."

Zhu Cixuan sighed: "I knew that this hot air balloon was not that useful. Fortunately, it was worth saving Hongniang, and who was this person?"

Zhu Cixuan asked about the question of Qin Langzhong behind Zhao Yun. At that moment, Li Yan stood up and introduced him, and Qin Langzhong followed him to meet him.
