Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 99
However, after winning the two battles in Yulin and Ningxia, Li Zicheng returned with a full load, Bai Guangen returned to Dashun, and everything is developing in a good place.

Today, only Lintao Town and Gansu Town remain.

Both are located in the northwest region, and the area is desolate, so Li Zicheng no longer marches personally, and gives his generals a chance.

Therefore, he announced that, headed by Liu Zongmin and Yuan Zongdi, he would go to the northwest to pacify the two towns of Lintao and Gansu.

Liu and Yuan have nothing to do.

"My lord, there is still a town of soldiers and horses in Hanzhong. If you want to take Sichuan, you must take Hanzhong. Don't give it up easily."

Song Yan said lightly.

"That's true."

Li Zicheng rubbed his chin, and then said to Bai Guangen who was beside him, "General Bai, I heard from you, it seems that the man who killed my nephew fled to Hanzhong?"

"My lord, the one who killed your nephew was a general surnamed Zhu, named Zhu Yixi, Sun Chuanting's favorite general, and now he has fled to Hanzhong."

Hearing this, Bai Guangen bowed his head quickly and said, "The last general is willing to be the vanguard, take down Hanzhong and dedicate it to the king."

"Zhu Yixi?" Li Zicheng muttered, with a fierce look in his single eye: "Kill my nephew and break my arm, you really deserve to die."

As he said that, he glanced at Bai Guangen intentionally or unintentionally, and then said to General Ma Ke: "Ma Ke, I order you to lead [-] troops, with General Bai as deputy, to take down Hanzhong together and avenge General Quan Li Guo. "

"As ordered—"

Ma Ke was taken aback for a moment, then patted her chest in response.

Bai Guangen also hurriedly followed.

Liu Zongmin glanced at Bai Guangen jokingly: "General Bai, you and that Zhu Yixi are old acquaintances, don't let the water go."

"Don't worry, General Liu, we have surrendered to the King, so naturally we will go all out."

Bai Guangen's eyelids twitched, disgusted in his heart, and he said stiffly.

"That's good." Liu Zongmin let him go.

At the end of the meeting, Bai Guangen followed Ma Ke, ordered soldiers and horses, and headed for Dasan Pass.

Along the way, Bai Guangen was rather dull.

During these days, the Dashun Army swept across the pass, most of the city was opened for fear of being massacred, but this did not include Dasan Pass.

He deeply understood that Zhu Yixi had already regarded Hanzhong as a retreat, and it was impossible to take it easily.

"Kill wolves and tigers!"

Shaking his head, he gnawed hard at the bones, no credit for it, if this turned into a war of attrition, it would really be over.

Soon, a few days later, the [-] troops saw the majestic and steep Dasan Pass.

"Hey, this is no different from Tongguan."

Ma Ke raised his eyes and couldn't help cursing.

"Go, let the guards open the city, or when the city gate is breached, no one will be left behind."

he instructed.

Soon, someone stepped forward and shouted.

Zhu Meng was condescending, looking at the menacing army, worried in his heart, but extremely calm on his face: "Surrender to him, I and the bandits are irreconcilable—"

"How brave!"

With the cold wind blowing, Ma Ke's face was ferocious, and he said without hesitation: "Cut down trees and make equipment for me. I want this Dasan Pass to see how powerful our Dashun soldiers are."

Immediately set up camp.

In the next few days, under the bitter cold wind, Chuangjun continued to climb and shoot regardless of casualties, but for Dasanguan, it was just scratching an itch.

As soon as the mountain wind blows, as soon as the arrow is shot, no matter how brave you are, you will be blown away.

Three or five days later, Dasan Pass was still as stable as Mount Tai, and Ma Ke's temper became a little irritable.

"Damn, damn it!"

Ma Ke kept scolding: "Others are attacking the city, but I am still attacking this broken city, and I am seen as a joke."

"Bai Guangen, aren't you amazing? Why is it still not effective?"

On the side, Bai Guangen also endured the abuse.

I became more and more aware in my heart that this Dashun was not as comfortable as I imagined.

Thinking of his son being captured by Jiannu, he felt even more uncomfortable.

Next, after more than ten days of attacking, the Dasan Pass was as immovable as a mountain.

Thanks to Ma Ke's violent temper, Bai Guangen didn't bother to talk to him, and climbed up the hillside to observe the situation of Dasan Pass.

"There seems to be something wrong with this person."

He looked over and muttered softly.

"How come the clothes are much cleaner. The blood stains before were dirty, but now most of them are clean and tidy."

"I'm afraid there are reinforcements!" Lieutenant You Shiwei couldn't help saying.

"It should be." Bai Guangen nodded and said, "Now, that's enough for Ma Ke to drink a pot."

You Shiwei's eyes were piercing, and he said, "Mr. Bai, you said that you would let us go."

"Of course, I never stop."

Bai Guangen said in a deep voice.

After all, he is not Yulin General Soldier, so when he was in Yulin Town, he cooperated with Yulin General and School to defend the city together.

Finally, after five days of guarding, he could sell for a good price, so he proposed to surrender.

Seeing that they could not keep it, the generals in Yulin had no choice but to agree to this request, but they asked for a false surrender and let them go back to Daming if necessary.

Bai Guangen understands that this group of people have been military households for generations, and they have been owed wages for many years and have never left. They are obviously loyal to Daming, and naturally they use each other.

"It's just that if you want to go to Sanguan now, I'm afraid it won't work!"

Bai Guangen looked at him and said, "Family of Yulin, you don't want it anymore?"

"Naturally!" You Shiwei nodded, glanced sideways at Dasanguan, and said, "We will find an appropriate time to leave, and we will never delay you."

"En!" Bai Guangen was a little reluctant to let go of these powerful soldiers, but he finally understood that these people could not be used by him.

They are not all the way.

Looking at his leaving back, Bai Guangen sighed: "Stubborn and loyal, the wrecked ship of Ming Dynasty is about to sink."

At night, Dasanguan was crowded with people.

Zhu Yixi's gaze was like a torch, looking at the invading army camping under the city, he felt emotional: "There are too many intruders, and the rest of the towns are still attacking, and 30,000 people came to Dasan Pass."

"Sovereign, is You Shiwei from Yulin reliable? I'm afraid it's not a trick!"

Zhu Meng hesitated and said: "It's better to guard the city and be more stable."

"Sun Changzhou is in Xi'an City, and the investigation has been clear. The generals in Yulin are convinced."

Zhu Yixi didn't take it seriously, and said calmly: "Besides, look at Bai Guangen and Ma Ke, the camps are clearly separated, and there is a little vigilance."

"And in Bai Guangen's army, two distinct forces can be vaguely seen. Obviously, this has been confirmed."

"In the end, we belonged to the night attack, and it was the Chuangjun who attacked Ma Ke. I know Bai Guangen, and he will never sacrifice his soldiers and horses to save Ma Ke."

As he said that, Zhu Yixi thought that when he first met him, he paid a hundred taels for a soldier, and then he refused to save Gao Jie during the battle.

Obviously, he is not a man of integrity.

"In addition, we must teach Chuangjun a lesson, a lesson that hurts when we think about it, otherwise, they will always think about Hanzhong, and we will lose if we keep it for a long time."

Zhu Yixi said solemnly: "Only when you hurt them, will you know how to retreat."

Moreover, after a period of resistance, Li Zicheng was able to go north to Beijing.

I left Xi'an for more than a month, Shaanxi has not spread my reputation for a long time, it is time to accumulate fame.

In other words, this battle was also fought for those Shaanxi merchants...

ps: Damn, there's no one left...

　In the history of Yulin Town, Li Zicheng fought bloody battles for seven days. The generals fought in the streets and retreated steadily. The women in the city committed suicide and hundreds of generals died in battle.

　　The three You Shiwei brothers were captured, refused to kneel down, insulted Li Zicheng, and were all killed in the end.

　　The battle of Yulin was very tragic.
