Chapter 754 Success in the first battle [Have you seen Mr. Liu? Third child! 】
The sun is coming out.
Returning to the ground again, bathing in the sunshine, Li Zicheng greedily experienced the happiness of the rest of his life.
"Brother Liang, where should we go next?"
Li Zicheng changed.
In the past, when encountering major issues, he would definitely summon his close brothers to discuss it in detail. But this time, he asked Liang Yue directly.
No one thinks this is wrong.
No one was jealous.
Anyone who has experienced this will know Liang Yue's contribution.
They hid under official channels for ten days.
He drank rainwater when he was thirsty, killed horses and ate meat when he was hungry, and finally the generals and soldiers survived.
In the past ten days, countless officers and soldiers passed by them.
Every time a team passed by, their hearts jumped into their throats.
But I have to say that the place Liang Yue found is really too secretive.
The officers and soldiers never imagined that there was a group of rogues hiding under their feet.
But now all the officers and soldiers have gone to Chexixia, besieging the other rebel groups.
Li Zicheng's troops were left outside, and the sky was high and the sea was vast, allowing them to roam.
If Li Zicheng just wanted to escape, then if he left now, he wouldn't have to worry about being pursued by the army for at least half a year.
But Li Zicheng and all the generals knew very well that if the other rebel units in the carriage gorge were wiped out, their fate would also be doomed.
A single tree cannot make a forest, and their strength alone will never be able to fight against the official army.
Seeing that Liang Yue had made great achievements, others also wanted to express themselves.
Li Guo then said, "Let's sneak over and hit the army's buttocks. We'll make sure the army is in chaos. Then the other leaders will take advantage of the chaos to break out, and everything will be fine."
Gu Junen said hurriedly: "No!"
Seeing that Li Guo was about to get angry, he quickly explained: "There are many officers and soldiers, and they are well-organized. It cannot be shaken by our small number of troops. If we attack rashly, I'm afraid we will fall in again."
It's not that Li Guo didn't understand, but seeing his strategy being refuted, he could only feel angry.
"What do you think we should do?"
Gu Junen smiled slightly and looked at Liang Yue with appreciation.
"I think General Liang must have a good plan."
At the critical moment, Liang Yue had no intention of scheming with others.
"General Chuang, we can't go to Chexixia. We should go to Xunyang."
Li Zicheng was stunned.
"Chen Qiyu has already gone to Chexi Gorge. Xunyang is empty. Even if we capture it, it won't matter to the overall situation."
Liang Yue explained quickly.
"General Chuang doesn't know that Xunyang is the place where the army's food and grass are gathered. Now the officers and soldiers in Chexixia Gorge are completely dependent on this place for support. If we break through Xunyang and burn the army's food and grass with a fire, then the army's food and grass will be destroyed."
If you don’t attack, you will destroy yourself.”
Li Zicheng was surprised to learn this situation.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's set off immediately."
Eight thousand rebels, led by Li Zicheng, marched in the opposite direction, heading south all the way to Xunyang.
When they arrived at Ganxi Town, they happened to encounter an army transporting grain and grass.
Li Zicheng was honest and polite, and wiped out all the officers and soldiers, and all the food and grass went into the belly of the rebels.
The rebels, who had been starving for more than half a month, finally had a full meal and regained their strength.
It was learned through interrogation of the prisoners that Chen Qiyu thought he was done, so he transferred all the capable troops to the carriage gorge. Today, there are less than a thousand officers and soldiers in Xunyang City, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled.
After learning about the situation, Liang Yue offered another plan.
"Why don't we dress up in disguise and open the city gate falsely?"
The rebel army is very familiar with such things as deception.
At that moment, the Ming army restrained themselves and put on their military uniforms, pretending to be the Sichuan Ming army and marched towards Xunyang City.
When it got dark, Liang Yue and others rushed to the foot of Xunyang City.
The sky was dark and unclear, and the people on the city wall could not be seen clearly. They vaguely saw that they were officers and soldiers, so they relaxed their vigilance.
"My dear, you have come all the way, and the soles of your feet are trembling from exhaustion. Why don't you open the door quickly and let me relax for a while."
Hearing that it was in Sichuan dialect again, the officers and soldiers in the city lost their alert even more.
The city gate slowly opened, and Liang Yue's heart gradually tightened.
"Brace yourselves, and take action as soon as you step into the city gate."
A man from a hundred families came up to him, cursing.
"Didn't the military constitution tell you to guard Jianmenguan? Why come here if you have nothing to do?"
Liang Yue happened to have one foot across the goal line and smiled ferociously.
"Of course I'm here to kill you."
Baihu was stunned, and then he saw a moon-like sword flash in front of his eyes, and then the earth became farther and farther in front of his eyes.
When he saw the blood, the fishy smell hit his nose, and Liang became more excited and shouted.
"kill!"
The more than thirty warriors who followed him immediately rushed towards the city.
The officers and soldiers near the city gate were not prepared at all and were caught off guard. More than twenty people were hacked to death in the blink of an eye.
As expected, the officers and soldiers in Xunyang City were all old, weak, sick and disabled. Faced with the change, they not only did not think of counterattack, but instead fled in all directions screaming.
Liang Yue only led three men to attack the city gate tower.
"Light a fire and greet the generals to enter the city."
The men took out the torch, lit it, and then shook it three times to the left and three times to the right towards the dense forest in the distance.
Li Zicheng, who had been waiting impatiently in the dense forest, looked up to the sky and smiled.
"Enter the city quickly, burn the grain and grass of the officers and soldiers, and cut off their retreat."
More than 8,000 rebel soldiers were excited, scrambling to get ahead, and poured into the city one after another.
In just two hours, Li Zicheng took complete control of this army logistics base.
And the mountains of grain, grass, ordnance piled here all gave him an advantage.
The tortured rebels put on new, clean and comfortable clothes and acquired new, more sophisticated and sharp weapons.
Li Zicheng asked the soldiers to gather horses, mules, donkeys and other livestock, as well as carriages, loaded them with enough grain and grass, and then burned all the remaining supplies.
The monstrous fire lit up the entire night sky and also illuminated the prospect of armed resistance to the Ming Dynasty.
"General, the troops are valuable and quick. We should take advantage of the victory to attack and go straight to Hanzhong."
Li Zicheng hasn't figured it out yet.
"Why go to Hanzhong?"
Liang Yue reminded: "Prince Rui is in Hanzhong, how can Chen Qiyu sit back and watch? If Prince Rui makes a mistake, Chen Qiyu will not be able to chop off the heads he has."
This is Liang Yue's true purpose.
Lao Zhu's family is really kind to their relatives.
Not only are the offerings delicious and delicious, they are also very protective.
Working for Lao Zhu's family, if something happens to those relatives, the outcome will definitely be miserable.
The crime of sitting back and watching the fall of the feudal lord is enough to kill him with a thousand cuts.
If only the grain and grass in Xunyang were burned, the impact would be huge, but if Chen Qiyu got angry and gritted his teeth and continued the siege, Gao Yingxiang and others would still be dead.
Only the vassal king was in danger. In order to save Xiang Shang's head, he had to withdraw his troops and return reinforcements.
In this way, all the rebels in the Carriage Gorge can escape.
"We don't really want to attack Hanzhong. After mobilizing Chen Qiyu to back up, we will cross Hutou Pass and head north. We can go wherever we want to go."
Liang Yue's plan was clear and clear, and everyone became more confident after hearing it.
When I looked at him again, my hostility and resistance had really dissipated a lot.
