Six miles away from Yushan, Li Xiucheng led his army to launch a pursuit as usual.
Three thousand elites were like tigers emerging from their cages, their ferocity shaking the sky.
Wherever the army ran, dust was thrown up, and the roar was deafening. Li Xiucheng rode a horse, wearing a helmet and armor, with a sword on his waist and a gun in his hand, running at the front. Three thousand elites followed him.
Behind Li Xiucheng, his running speed did not slow down, and he was full of energy as if he had taken medicine.
Li Xiucheng looked into the distance, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a cruel smile appeared on his face.
This time, Wu Qigong must be severely injured again.
"Da da!!"
A black war horse galloped over. The general of the army ran to Li Xiucheng's side and said loudly: "General, we have been chasing for four hours today. It's time to stop and rest."
According to past practice, chasing Wu Qigong will never take more than four hours.
Because four hours was enough to close in on Wu Qigong's soldiers, Li Xiucheng had no plans to kill Wu Qigong for the time being. He would stop and rest after a while, allowing the soldiers to adjust. Today Li Xiucheng said nothing and did not give any orders.
The soldiers were confused. Therefore, a general rode up to Li Xiucheng and reminded Li Xiucheng to stop and rest.
Li Xiucheng's eyes were still fixed on the direction in which Wu Qigong was fleeing. He shook his head and said, "This time I won't stop to rest. I will speed up and catch up with Wu Qigong and kill him hard!"
"yes!"
After receiving the order, the general was not only not angry because he did not stop to rest, but his eyes were shining with a faint green light like a wolf. In the past, when the army chased Wu Qigong, they could actually catch up every time, but every time
When he was about to catch up, Li Xiucheng always ordered to stop the pursuit and then set up camp to rest.
Every time he threw away the meat in his mouth, the generals and soldiers in the army felt it was a pity and wanted to capture Wu Qigong in one go. Li Xiucheng ordered the pursuit to continue, and the generals happily passed on the order.
When the order came out, the three thousand elites burst into cheers that resounded throughout the world.
A wolfish ferocity suddenly jumped out.
These three thousand soldiers are like tigers, leopards and lions that have been locked in an iron cage. Every time they see the prey outside the cage, they can only drool with greed, but they cannot break out of the cage to catch the prey. When the cage is opened, the hearts of the three thousand soldiers
The hostility suddenly swayed out, and a surge of excitement spread in the hearts of every soldier.
Even though these soldiers had been running for several hours, they did not feel tired. Instead, there was wind under their feet, and they wanted to catch up with Wu Qigong's army immediately.
…
Two miles away from the foot of Yushan Mountain, a thousand soldiers led by Wu Qigong stopped.
Wu Qigong and Li Xiucheng played against each other several times, and gradually figured out each other's habits.
Every time after chasing for nearly four hours, Li Xiucheng's soldiers would stop. When Wu Qigong came to this conclusion, he did not dare to stop immediately for the first two times because Wu Qigong was afraid that Li Xiucheng would retreat in order to advance, and then suddenly
Launched an attack. However, every time he stopped and did not pursue, Wu Qigong gradually relaxed and lost his initial vigilance.
Among the thousands of soldiers, Wu Qigong only asked a dozen soldiers to stand guard, and the rest of the soldiers rested and played when they needed to, without any concern for the safety of the army.
No, the whole army stopped to rest, except for a dozen soldiers who were as tired as dogs and stood guard.
Soldiers fell to the ground one by one. Some soldiers sat on the ground with their backs hunched and their heads lowered, resting their heads on their knees; some soldiers simply lay on the ground, stretched out their hands, making a big font, and completely disappeared.
Alert; some soldiers were sitting on the ground gasping for air, obviously because they were too tired from running before...
Not only the soldiers, but also Wu Qigong got off his horse, found a big tree beside the road, sat down and rested against the trunk. From the beginning of his escape, Wu Qigong was unbearably tired, not only physically.
, more spiritual.
"Snort! Snort!!"
After a while, Wu Qigong started snoring and fell asleep directly.
The appearance of the army is no longer an army.
If Qi Shan saw Wu Qigong leading troops like this, he would definitely be so angry that he would come back to life and curse him even if he died. However, this is already a fact and cannot be changed.
At some point, shouts of killing were heard in the distance, as well as the ground shaking.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!!!"
"The bandits are coming, the bandits are coming to kill."
…
Heartbreaking shouts with deep fear suddenly rang out, and the soldiers on guard spread their legs and ran forward in a hurry. Wu Qigong was sleeping deeply and did not hear the soldiers' shouts. Instead, he was hit by someone on his shoulder.
After a quick slap, he woke up with a start. Hearing the terrified shouts of the soldiers, Wu Qigong stood up in confusion.
Looking up, he saw a group of dark bandits rushing towards him, baring their sharp fangs like tigers and wolves. Wu Qigong was so frightened that his heart trembled, but he kept moving and quickly kicked off his feet to run.
He came to the side of the war horse and shouted: "The bandits are coming, run away quickly, escape into the mountains and forests!"
"drive!!"
Wu Qigong slapped the horse on the butt, and there was a crisp sound. The horse was in pain, and it threw off its hooves and ran towards the mountain. The other generals and soldiers all got up at once, picked up their weapons and headed towards the mountain forest.
Run.
However, Li Xiucheng arrived too quickly after all and caught Wu Qigong off guard. Li Xiucheng did not wait for Wu Qigong to escape with his soldiers, rode his horse diagonally to the side of the road, and shouted: "Foreign gun team, shoot!"
As soon as the voice fell, the running soldiers stopped.
Among them, the soldiers at the front stood in a row, aiming their guns at the fleeing Manchu soldiers.
"Bang! Bang!!!"
A series of gunshots rang out, and bullets were fired forward.
The dense bullets hit the fleeing soldiers, making a popping sound and entering the soldiers' bodies. In an instant, shrill screams rang out on the official road. Li Xiucheng rode on his horse and watched the Manchu soldiers fall one after another.
On the ground, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, a cold look in his eyes, but he was extremely happy in his heart.
After the soldiers in the first row fired, they immediately retreated and reloaded their bullets.
Soldiers from the second and third platoons filled in and fired again.
In this seamless cycle, countless Manchu soldiers were killed in the blink of an eye.
Looking around, corpses fell to the ground. Blood flowed all over the ground, staining the official road red. The blood seeping into the road turned the color of the ground into dark purple. Forced by the firepower of the Taiping Army, the people of Jiangbei Camp
The soldier's legs seemed to be equipped with two hot wheels, and he ran extremely fast. Even though his body was exhausted, he held his breath and rushed forward.
It is a pity that the soldiers under Li Xiucheng were not able to load bullets quickly. The soldiers fired wave after wave, but Wu Qigong and his soldiers quickly ran out of the shooting range of the bullets.
Shooting is useless, the only way is to catch up and fight.
