Chapter 119
That night, Li Zicheng's room was very lively.
There were four people sitting in the small room with Li Zicheng.
Li Zicheng sat on the main seat.
And on his left and right hands sat the generals who entered with him.
The natural system also arranged a reasonable identity for these chaotic generals, so that they naturally converged to Li Zicheng's side.
The one closest to Li Zicheng was a burly man with a broad-backed knife.
This person's name is Liu Zongmin, if Lu Yao is here, he definitely knows him.
Because he is the No. 1 general under Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng is also the first to break through Beijing City in history.
He was also named General Quan by Li Zicheng, Marquis Ru, and was the most important general under Li Zicheng.
However, this person likes to abuse lynching to accumulate wealth, and occupies Wu Sangui's concubine Chen Yuanyuan, causing Wu Sangui to be angry and turn into a red face, and directly surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and later united with the Qing army to defeat Li Zicheng.
It can be said that Li Zicheng, Cheng also Liu Zongmin defeated Liu Zongmin.
But even this could not shake this person's position in Li Zicheng's army.
And the second is Gao Jie, who is known as the "Mountain Harrier", who is not only good in force, but also handsome, and is a typical handsome and capable type.
The third person named Li Guo is known as "a tiger", this person is also brave and abnormal, famous for his good fighting, and he is also good at using a broad-backed broadsword.
In the official history, Li Guo and Li Zicheng fought side by side for fifteen years, and participated in hundreds of battles large and small.
Not only that, Li Guo is also a figure who can be called a hero from beginning to end in Li Zicheng's rebels.
At the beginning, the Qing army had surrendered him six times, but Li Guo was unmoved, and his loyalty can be seen.
It is precisely because of the three of them that Li Zicheng can fight for a place in the Yellow Turban Army.
The candlelight flickered, and Li Zicheng played with the "Heavenly Master Token" given to him by Qi Lang in his hand, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his cold eyes.
At this time, the atmosphere in the room was also a little solidified.
After a while, Li Zicheng finally spoke.
He looked at his three generals and said.
"I need to win this fight.
Li Zicheng's words were very concise and clear, because only by winning this battle could he have a greater reputation in the county than Qi Lang.
Gao Jie patted his chest when he heard this, and said.
"There are only 3,000 enemy troops outside the city gate, and I Gao Jie can break it with a snap of my fingers!" Gao
Jie's voice just fell, and Liu Zongmin on the side spoke.
"This matter is not trivial, although our troops are several times larger than those outside the city, but in terms of combat effectiveness, it is far inferior, and this battle can only be outwitted and not forced. Liu
Zongmin is still a more strategic thinking general, as the middle-level leader of the Yellow Turban Army in this county, he knows best what kind of soldiers he is bringing under his hands.
It may be too high to say that they are soldiers, these Yellow Turban troops cannot be called soldiers at all, even if the wind is strong, they can be blown down.
With these, this man could not be an opponent of the regular army.
When Gao Jie heard this, he said disdainfully.
"What's so afraid of this, everyone is carrying a head on two shoulders, I don't believe that the officers and soldiers outside the city gate can grow three heads and six arms?"
Li Guo, who has always been not good at words, also opened his mouth to echo when he saw this.
"If the eldest brother wants to stand up, then the first battle must be fought beautifully, in my opinion, the enemy army outside the city has just arrived today, and it is not stable, if you can make a surprise attack tonight, you will definitely have a harvest.
Li Zicheng's originally drooping eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this.
Liu Zongmin also touched his chin and pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"But if they wait for a night's rest, tomorrow will be a tough battle." Li
Guo, Gao Jie, and Liu Zongmin all looked at Li Zicheng together, and night raids are a very risky thing with great benefits.
If you do it well, it will be small and big, and if you don't do it well, it will be the end of the whole army.
Li Zicheng also pondered for a few seconds when he saw this, and for him, it was naturally not the time to seek stability.
As the saying goes, heroes come out of troubled times, and all opportunities are fought by themselves.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Zicheng had nothing to hesitate about, and he immediately spoke.
"Gao Jie, where is Li Guo!" When
the two heard this, they immediately knelt down on one knee.
"In!"
"In!"
Li Zicheng handed the "Heavenly Master Token" in his hand to Gao Jie's hand, and then spoke.
"Order the two of you to raise 3,000 elites from the camp, and take advantage of the night to make a surprise attack on the enemy's camp and burn the enemy's grain and grass!" Gao
Jie suddenly raised his head when he heard this, took the token handed over by Li Zicheng, and said excitedly.
"Gao Jie takes the order!" The
two did not hesitate, and immediately got up and went out.
Li Zicheng looked at the back of the two leaving, and he was also hesitant in his heart.
No one knows if they can win or not.
At the same time, Li Zicheng's transfer of troops also reached Qi Lang's ears.
Qi Lang said with some curiosity.
"Tonight, we're going to send troops?"
the messenger nodded.
"Back to the commander of the Qu Shuai, Li commanded his general Gao Jie, and Li Guo has already gone to the barracks to order troops.
Qi Lang, who was drinking, drank all the wine in the bowl, with a strange expression on his face.
"I want to see what kind of ability this Li Zicheng has. In
the dark night, Gao Jie Li Guo led the elite of the three thousand Yellow Turban Army to sneak out in the night.
The so-called elite is also the tallest of the shorts, barely scraping together 3,000 combatable soldiers.
Not far from the county seat, a large military flag with a raised character floated above the barracks of 3,000 people.
Ten thousand people were silent, and these 3,000 people traveled all the way from Yangzhou to Yuzhou.
At this time, he was also exhausted, so the commander ordered to repair the city for one night and attack the city tomorrow.
Since entering Yuzhou, they have had several frictions with the Yellow Turban Army.
These Yellow Turbans were shattered at the slightest touch, so the leading generals concluded that these so-called Yellow Turbans were just a bunch of crazy refugees, and there was no threat at all.
Therefore, he also despised the Yellow Turban Army in the county, so he left the camp to rest directly in front of them.
According to their expectations, the Yellow Turban Army in the city is expected to flee when they see their banner, not to mention that someone will suddenly come out and attack at night.
But there is often a price to be paid for underestimating the enemy, and the price to be paid for underestimating the enemy on the battlefield is often even heavier.
On the city wall, Li Zicheng held the handle of the knife with one hand and looked in the direction of the Yangzhou military camp with a serious expression.
Liu Zongmin, who was behind him, opened his mouth to persuade him.
"Big brother, don't worry, you know the strength of Gao Jie and Li Guo, even if the attack on the camp fails, you can retreat with your whole body. As he
spoke, Qi Lang, who was dressed in a wide body, climbed the city wall at the same time with all the leaders behind him.
After seeing Li Zicheng, Qi Lang approached. chuckled.
"Brother Xian is really very, he actually came up with such a clever plan as a night attack, I really admire my brother!
