Chen Yucheng led the soldiers on the road quickly. All the soldiers rushed at full speed. It only took half an hour to reach outside the mountain forest where the battle was originally fought. Unfortunately, except for the sacks filled with sand and gravel scattered on the road, Li Zhen and his party He had already left. When Lao Yu saw this, he immediately said: "General Chen, Li Zhen must have continued on his way with food. Let's give chase and we will catch up soon."
Xu Yuan nodded and said: "Pursuit is necessary, but we must first send out scouts to find out Li Zhen's location and situation, and then we will follow to cover him up."
Chen Yucheng immediately sent out scouts and then led his soldiers to continue the chase.
While on the way, the scouts sent back news halfway, confirming the movements of Li Zhen's army, and also discovered that Li Zhen's soldiers were protecting a group of carriages loaded with grain.
After Chen Yucheng was confirmed, he was overjoyed and once again asked his soldiers to pursue him with all their strength.
Twenty minutes later, Chen Yucheng finally saw Li Zhen's army.
Suddenly, Chen Yucheng roared with joy: "Kill, kill all the Qing dogs and capture Li Zhen alive." With a loud roar, Chen Yucheng's soldiers immediately rushed forward. When everyone started to sprint, they were protecting the food on the way. The soldiers in the Jiangbei Camp did not seem to notice it. When the high-pitched shouts of killing came out, the soldiers under Li Zhen's command reacted, but they were in a hurry.
Li Zhen roared: "Protect the food, hurry up, don't let the food be shot."
The soldiers' focus was on food, not on stopping the incoming bandits.
When Chen Yucheng saw Li Zhen's arrangement, he sneered in his heart.
In the face of a powerful enemy, Li Zhen ordered the soldiers to protect the food. This was clearly putting the cart before the horse. Suddenly, Chen Yucheng lost interest in Li Zhen because he felt that Li Zhen did not even distinguish between priorities. He was a person who ignored the overall situation for the sake of food. , it’s really nothing to worry about, such people are just a little clever.
Moreover, Yang Xiuqing and others lost to Li Zhen. It can only be said that the abilities of Yang Xiuqing and others were too poor.
Chen Yucheng glanced at Li Zhen with disdain and shouted: "Kill all the dogs, steal all the food, and capture Li Zhen alive." Chen Yucheng kept shouting to encourage his soldiers and led his troops to charge forward. , because the focus of Li Zhen's soldiers was not on blocking, but on protecting food, the defense line organized by the soldiers was immediately broken, and the situation was very unfavorable.
Li Zhen saw that the situation was unfavorable, and saw Chen Yucheng being extremely arrogant, holding a steel knife to face Chen Yucheng. The two fought, and Chen Yucheng became more courageous as they fought, and the big gun seemed to come to life.
When Li Zhen was wielding the knife, his eyes were constantly looking at the surrounding situation.
Seeing the decline of the soldiers under his command, the expression on Li Zhen's face looked very anxious. When Chen Yucheng saw this, he sneered in his heart. He already thought that Li Zhen was just better at martial arts than him, but his mental quality was not good. Now he should obviously use all his strength to fight. He went there, but Li Zhen was worried about the situation around him. This is not what a person with good psychological quality should do.
When he thought that Li Zhen was distracted and he had a chance, Chen Yucheng was even more motivated.
Kill Li Zhen.
Chen Yucheng made up his mind and shouted: "Li Zhen, this king will definitely seize your food today, kill all the soldiers you lead, and you will also die together." Chen Yucheng started talking about robbing food and killing soldiers. , clearly to disturb Li Zhen's mind and make it difficult for Li Zhen to concentrate.
After Li Zhen heard this, his mood suddenly became chaotic.
For a time, Li Zhen's moves frequently had loopholes, and he was almost injured by Chen Yucheng. Although Li Zhen kept playing tricks, he still got hit. The clothes on his right shoulder had been scratched by Chen Yucheng's spear tip, and his skin was also injured. There was a slight injury, with bright red blood flowing out. Fortunately, the wound was not serious and did not affect the battle.
Li Zhen lost to Chen Yucheng, and his soldiers were also affected. The situation was very unfavorable.
Xu Yuan watched the battlefield situation from a distance and saw that Chen Yucheng led his army to suppress the opponent. He was overjoyed and thought that as long as he worked harder, he could defeat Li Zhen.
Chen Yucheng seized the opportunity and shouted: "Li Zhen, your soldiers have been defeated, you go to hell."
"fart."
Li Zhen retorted, but after looking at the situation around him, his expression became gloomy.
"Evacuate, we don't need any more food. Evacuate quickly."
Li Zhen ordered to retreat, and immediately swung the steel knife in his hand, forcing Chen Yucheng back with one strike. Li Zhen picked up the steel knife, turned around and ran away. His running speed was absolutely top-notch, as if he had two wheels under his feet. The speed was extremely fast, and the same was true for the soldiers under Li Zhen's command, who all retreated quickly.
Chen Yucheng finally had the opportunity to kill Li Zhen, so he naturally would not let it go.
"Chasing, we can't let Li Zhen escape."
Chen Yucheng pointed the big gun in the direction of Li Zhen, feeling excited.
The soldiers followed Chen Yucheng and began to pursue. Xu Yuan stayed with a small number of soldiers, moved down the food escorted by Li Zhen's soldiers, and waited for Xu Yuan at the same place. Chen Yucheng led the soldiers to chase. The soldiers under his command were fast. But the soldiers under Li Zhen were faster and slightly superior.
Seeing that the distance was getting farther and farther, Chen Yucheng was secretly worried.
Chen Yucheng was the master who refused to admit defeat. He changed his mind and immediately shouted: "Brothers, try harder and faster. Li Zhen has countless money. As long as he catches Li Zhen, I will reward him with ten thousand taels." Silver, and if you kill a Qing Dog soldier, I will also reward you with one tael of silver. Follow me and kill him quickly."
Orders were issued one after another, and Chen Yucheng's soldiers rushed a little faster, narrowing the distance between the two sides. However, Li Zhen's soldiers were also very fast, so that the distance could no longer be reduced, and they could only maintain this distance. You chased me and fled. After about twenty-five minutes, the speed of Li Zhen's soldiers actually slowed down a little.
Chen Yucheng thought that the other party must be tired, and said happily: "Li Zhen's army is gone. Brothers, the money is in front. If you want to steal it, come to me."
Lao Yu was extremely excited and rushed forward quickly with his soldiers.
Li Zhen fled with his soldiers. Seeing Chen Yucheng and his soldiers chasing after him, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his brows. At this time, the speed of Li Zhen's army gradually slowed down. After another eight minutes, both sides The distance between them has been shortened to twenty meters, and the speed of Li Zhen's soldiers has been very slow.
Li Zhen suddenly stopped and shouted: "Brothers, counterattack."
An order was passed down, and a loud horn sounded in the army. After the sound came out, the soldiers in the Jiangbei camp stopped calmly, turned around with steel knives in hand, and faced Chen Yucheng and other Taiping soldiers who were rushing over.
"kill."
A loud roar came from the army.
The person who made this sound is Lu Shaochuan, the bandit leader in the army. This guy has been hanging around in the army. When Li Zhen and Chen Yucheng fought before, Lu Shaochuan failed to take action. Now that he has the chance to take action, Lu Shaochuan Chuan was extremely excited and rushed forward with a big knife in hand.
"Lao Lu, Chen Yucheng is mine, you don't have to fight."
When Lu Shaochuan shouted, Long Ao rushed out with a Daguan knife.
"Brother Long, Chen Yucheng is mine."
Long Yao's voice fell, and Yang Banhou's voice came out again. Immediately afterwards, Smith's voice came out. The three regiment commanders in the army all gathered here, and almost all the troops in the army came out. Nearly 9,000 soldiers were dispatched, and the remaining 1,000 soldiers stayed at the Jiangbei camp to guard the area.
