Zhang Xianzhong fled to Xinjin, and it was not easy for him to reach this point with his tenacious vitality. When he saw the fully armed Wang, he shouted: "Hurry up and kill him! They are busy fishing for treasure, kill him without leaving a trace!"

"

After saying this, he fell to the ground. The adopted sons screamed and rushed over to check his breathing. They were okay. Hope asked Dingguo and Wenxiu to send their father back to Chengdu as soon as possible. He led people from the right bank of the Minjiang River to pick up Nengqi.

Zhang Xianzhong had not calculated that Yang Zhan would mobilize all the troops of Shu, nor did he expect that he would have a green-feathered feather fan that could change the direction of the wind.

He believed that just like when he entered Sichuan, he would be invincible if he crossed the river on both sides of the river. Even if he could not get out of Sichuan smoothly, it would at least be a food raiding operation.

Unexpectedly, he was seriously injured. Under such circumstances, how could the adopted sons have the intention to fight back? It would be good to take back Neng Qi and the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army.

In the Battle of Jiangkou, the Daxi Army suffered heavy losses. 50% of Zhang Xianzhong's gold and silver sank to the bottom of the river, and nearly half of the officers and soldiers were killed or injured.

Zhang Xianzhong, who fled back to Chengdu, was furious when he woke up. He hated the Shu people. When he was unconscious, he was still fighting against the Shu people. The strange thing was that those Shu people either had no heads, no hands and feet, or were wearing skin-like clothes.

When they reached half of the human skin, they shouted eerily: "Zhang Xianzhong, give me back my life!"

He rushed left and right, fighting a bloody path, and suddenly saw his master Jingguang. Jingguang said: "You should leave Sichuan quickly, and I will help you kill these evil ghosts!"

He yelled and woke up. The first thing he said was: "Run, run, Yang Zhan is coming!"

The adopted sons who were originally gathered around the bed subconsciously jumped to the side, because Zhang Xianzhong, who woke up, was the demon king who killed and hacked indiscriminately. He was so eager to kill that even the King of Heaven could not recognize him.

After waiting for a long time, but there was no movement, they finally remembered that their father was seriously injured, so they gathered around again.

Zhang Xianzhong opened his eyes, "Do you think I'm dead? I can't die! Even if I die, I will still seek my life from Yang Zhan! Hopefully, come here."

Ke Wang stepped forward and bowed his head to obey orders.

"If we can't go by water, we have to go by land. We must leave Sichuan as soon as possible so that we can have a way to survive."

"Let's wait until you recover from your injury, Father!"

"No, let's start preparations now. The first one is to reduce the burden with light equipment, gold and silver must be discarded, and the women must be killed; the second one is to burn the city and burn the capital, and never leave Chengdu to Yang Zhan!"

It is expected that he will agree quickly. The most important thing at the moment is to restore his strength as soon as possible. Yang Zhan became stronger with the victory at Jiangkou and will soon attack Chengdu. The Qing army is pressing closer to the north again.

After a few days, Zhang Xianzhong regained his breath. Knowing that Hope had not carried out his order, he took the king's sword and personally killed more than 300 concubines and maids around him, leaving only Empress Chen and a pregnant woman.

Pregnant concubine.

While killing, he panted and chanted: "Gold and silver must be thrown away, and women must be killed!" Kill for a while, then rest for a while while holding the king's sword.

He wanted to kill again to vent his anger. There were no common people around him to kill, and there were no Sichuan soldiers to kill, only women to kill. He believed that this failure was all caused by women and money! The soldiers were used to wealth and wealth.

If you don't know how to charge into battle, if you are greedy for beauty, you won't fight to the death.

Lao Wansui personally took the lead, and all the soldiers had no choice but to follow Lao Wansui's example and kill their own women. If they were local women from Sichuan, none of them could be spared.

But the soldiers had been stationed in Chengdu for a long time, and many of them had feelings for women, got married, and gave birth to children. How could they bear to harm women with swords? So in the entire military camp, tears mixed with blood flowed into a river.

, the sound of wailing and crying shook the wilderness.

Zhang Kewang knew that if he didn't act quickly, his father's anger at Jiangkou's defeat might burn onto him. He ordered people to spread straw mats in the open space in the central garden, reiterated the silver search order, and strictly prohibited soldiers from hiding gold and silver.

If one or two people are hidden, they will be beheaded. If there are more than ten people hidden, they will be skinned and the whole family will be beheaded!" After a while, the straw mat was filled with countless gold, silver, jewelry, jewelry and precious utensils.

Everyone understands that all the gold and silver treasures of Lao Long live have been knocked down into the Minjiang River by Yang Zhan. This is a different method to search for their own people.

The failure of the Jiangkou Battle further strengthened Zhang Xianzhong's determination to abandon Chengdu.

Since the waterway is impassable, we will take the land route and march to northern Sichuan, heading directly to Shaanxi. In northern Sichuan, there are tens of thousands of troops stationed in Baoning by Governor Liu Jinzhong, and there is also the steep and majestic "Chaotian Pass" that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Before heading north, he vowed to massacre all the people in Chengdu and destroy the city. He said to Wang Zhaolin, the Prime Minister of the Left: "Gold and jade are thrown into the water, and the palace is burned with fire. I will get it by myself, and I will destroy it by myself. I will leave nothing behind to harm others!"

This time, he killed not only women in the military camp, but also the old, young, sick and disabled. He was worried that with these people in the military camp, they would move slowly and not be able to march in a hurry.

He also ordered that the piles of corpses in the military camp and the city be pickled into dried meat and loaded on vehicles to be used as military rations during the march.

The next step is to destroy the city of Chengdu. Chengdu is named Chengdu because "it takes one year to build a city and two years to build a city". Now, Zhang Xianzhong spent half a month turning it into an abandoned city infested by tigers and wolves.

In August of the Bingwu year, Zhang Xianzhong moved ten miles outside Chengdu and sent soldiers from each battalion to level the city in sections with shovels, shovels, hammers and drills. The walls of Chengdu were tall and strong, and it took them half a month to dig out the crenellations. The crenellations were leveled.

The following is as hard as iron. If you hit the steel drill with a hammer, sparks will fly out, but it will not move at all.

The soldiers dug under the corner of the wall again, hoping to hollow out the bottom, and the wall naturally collapsed. Unexpectedly, after digging several feet, they found that the foundation was made of molten iron. The ground piles and railings below were less than a foot away.

Just arrange one pile in the ground, each pile is more than a foot thick, nailed firmly into the ground, as if it has roots, and will not move at all.

Lao Wansui came to investigate in person, but he had no choice but to order the palace of the King of Shu to be set on fire, which was also the palace he lived in and renovated. In an instant, smoke rose into the sky and flames lit the ground.

There are two stone pillars in front of the Chengtian Hall, carved with dragons. They are very skillful, but they are strong and hard and difficult to destroy. Lao Wanzai asked people to fetch gauze, Sichuan brocade, etc., soak them in oil, wrap them layer by layer, and then raise the fire. The flames soared into the sky and burned.

After a whole day and night, the two coiling dragon stone pillars were finally burnt and destroyed. Lao Longzai clapped his hands and cheered.

Lao Wansui then ordered the whole city to be set on fire. Government offices, temples, and houses in the city were burned everywhere. The whole city was red, like a sea of ​​fire. At night, it was as bright as day for hundreds of miles away. The fire burned for half a month before it was extinguished. If it was found that there was no burnt out,

They also sent people to pick up the remaining wood and pile it up, and threw it into the flames. They would not stop until they were burned to ashes.

Chengdu, the most magnificent and historic city in the world, was completely reduced to rubble and scorched earth.
