Chapter 207 Breaking the wrist for the moon

Can't stand it anymore!

Under the fierce attacks of Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi and other vassal soldiers, Yuan Zongdi and Liu Tichun felt that they were unable to meet their strength and finally ordered a retreat.

Before this, Hao Yaoqi had already left early and once again abandoned his robe, exactly the same as when he was in Shangluo.

However, now Yuan Zongdi and Liu Tichun have no time to curse Hao Yaoqi, escaping is important!

Yuan Zongdi and Liu Tichun are all from Sanqin. After staying in the mountains in Shaanxi for a long time, they have a lot of experience in hiding in the mountains.

Yuan Zongdi and Liu Tichun made them run away in a moment. As long as they drilled into the dense forest in the mountains, even gods could hardly find them.

Because the soldiers under Yuan and Liu were too dispersed, Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi's vassal soldiers were also a little confused about what to do.

They also have to chase each other, and they are very likely to be ambushed by Shun Army soldiers hiding in the dark.

If you don’t chase him, you’re a little unwilling to accept it. What’s the matter if you can’t beat him and run away?

They were all waiting for Wu Sangui, and Shang Kexi to issue an order, but stopped moving forward for a while.

Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi, did not dare to make a decision. Although they were nominally vassal kings, they were no different from dogs raised by Manchus. They were essentially slaves, but they were just high-ranking slaves with slightly higher status.

The master was unhappy, and a word could destroy their family and lose everything.

Ajige drove forward with a gloomy face.

"King of Pingxi, King Zhishun, what's going on?"

Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi quickly apologized and said, "The slave was not good at doing things, so he let Liu Tichun go away, Yuan Zong's second thief. He also asked his master to punish him."

Ajige snorted coldly and said, "What's the use of saying these now? Think of a solution quickly. I must not let Li Chuang run away this time."

Ajige was determined to capture Li Zicheng and establish his position as the number one warrior of the Qing Dynasty. On several occasions, he almost did it. But Li Zicheng was like a loach, slipping away from their palms many times, which was really awesome.

Shang Kexi's eyes turned and said, "Prince, please don't worry, Jiugong Mountain is in a dangerous situation, Li Chuang will definitely not be able to run fast. The slave led the army to chase, and it won't take long to chase the main force of Shunzi."

Ajige turned to Wu Sangui again and said, "What do you say about King Pingxi?"

Wu Sangui owed slightly and said, "I thought I could lead an army to take a chance on the way."

Wu Sangui had a lot of experience in running away and was judging others by himself. He believed that Li Zicheng would not just go down the mountain from the road. What if Li Zicheng was foolish and went down the mountain from the small road? Then wouldn’t the Qing Dynasty’s more than 100,000 troops were all blind?

Ajig nodded.

Wu Sangui's words came to the point.

Judging from his repeated battles with Li Zicheng, this person is not very strong in combat, but he is very good at using tricks. It is not difficult for you to defeat such a person, but it is difficult to kill him.

As the saying goes, wildfires cannot be burned, and spring breezes will grow again.

This is also the reason why Li Zicheng was repeatedly surrounded and suppressed by the Ming army during the Chongzhen period, but only a few dozen or hundreds of people were left by his side.

But Ajige was not prepared to make the mistakes that Chongzhen had made.

When hitting a dog, you must be completely beaten to death, and you must never give him a chance to breathe.

"Okay, I will order King Pingxi to lead his troops to intercept Li Zicheng's retreat!"

"twitter!"

Wu Sangui quickly called a thousand and responded respectfully.

......

......

"Your Majesty, there is a line of sky ahead, and it is probably difficult for the army to pass through."

Tian Jianxiu sighed softly.

Li Zicheng also frowned and his face was very serious.

After being silent for a long time, Li Zicheng said in a deep voice: "Yufeng, we have no choice, we must get through here. We will send orders and order the men to unload all the baggage and pass in turn."

Li Zicheng observed a little. Although this line of sky is very narrow, it can still be used for single riding. Of course, a carriage that loads a lot of baggage is definitely not up to the way it is. It is because Li Zicheng would issue an order to abandon baggage.

Tian Jianxiu saw that Li Zicheng was about to give up food, fodder and supplies, and hurriedly advised: "Your Majesty, you must not. The situation is so bad that it is, you must not give up food, fodder and supplies."

Li Zicheng smiled bitterly and said, "Yufeng, don't lie to yourself. What does the situation mean that the situation has not broken to that point? How to be broken to be considered bad?"

After a moment of pause, Li Zicheng continued: "Have we ever won a battle since we evacuated from Shaanxi? Wherever we ran, the Tartars would follow. Zong Min was captured and killed. Fang Liang went to the front mountain to lead the Qing army away, and his life and death were uncertain. Zong Di and Tichun led the rear of the palace. We are already at the end of our journey!"

Tian Jianxiu looked gloomy and said, "Maybe there is another way."

Li Zicheng shook his head repeatedly and said, "There is no other way. Food, fodder and supplies are all things outside of the body. If he loses his life, these things will be cheaper than the Tartars."

Seeing that Li Zicheng had made up his mind, Tian Jianxiu stopped persuading him and said hesitantly: "The Queen..."

A rare smile appeared on Li Zicheng's face: "Guiying, don't you know yet? She won't have any objections."

Li Zicheng's empress Gao Guiying was born in a wild family and had long been respectful to Li Zicheng along the way.

Even though Li Zicheng summoned many women to the palace to serve in Xi'an, he did not forget Gao Guiying and would always take some time to accompany her.

Gao Guiying once took charge of the old camp, and it would be no problem to lead troops to fight, let alone ride horses.

What is even more commendable is that Gao Guiying will unconditionally obey Li Zicheng's arrangements.

Tian Jianxiu nodded and said, "It's good."

At Li Zicheng's order, the soldiers of Shun Army gave up their supplies, food and fodder, leaving only seven days of food, and camels were on the horse's back.

They lined up and passed through the first line of the sky, while the generals riding horses turned over and dismounted to save the strength of the war horses.

Even Li Zicheng is no exception.

What made Li Zicheng feel a little relieved was that Shunjun or basically kept his spirits. Those fencemen had basically run away, and the rest were veterans who were willing to follow Li Zicheng.

As long as these old brothers are here, Li Zicheng firmly believes that there will be a day when he will make a comeback.

"I don't know how Guo'er and Yigong and others are doing."

Li Zicheng suddenly thought of Li Guo, Gao Yigong, and sighed deeply.

When Li Zicheng evacuated from Shaanxi, he had no time to notify Li Guo who was staying in Yulin, northern Shaanxi. Gao Yigong later fled all the way and was unable to contact him.

Li Guo, the high school meritorious army, has more than 100,000 troops. If he could join Li Zicheng, it would be a good supplement to the main force of the Shun Army, which is now a remnant.

After evacuating Jiugong Mountain, he settled down a little, and asked someone to try to contact Guoer and Yigong.

Li Zicheng made up his mind secretly.
