Please ask me to be the emperor
Chapter 295 Pursuit
Zhang Shun originally said that Deng Qi would take the opportunity to enter Huaiqing City and escape. As a result, I didn't expect that this guy was delayed for a while at the gate of Huaiqing Mansion and walked directly around the city.
Zhang Shun was stunned for a moment and said there was some fraud involved. He quickly ordered his cavalry to stay away from Huaiqing Mansion, for fear that the city gate would suddenly open and attack his cavalry.
As a result, until Zhang Shun and his cavalry had bypassed the city of Huaiqing Prefecture from a distance, the four gates of the city were still tightly closed.
After Zhang Shunsong sighed, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "Why is the city not accepting people like Deng Qi?"
Following him were Li Xin and Wukong. Wukong didn't know anything, he just laughed and said nonsense: "Maybe there is no rice in the city to cook, and I can't bear to let them beat the autumn wind!"
Zhang Shun was not willing to listen to his nonsense. He just turned to look at Li Xin. Li Xin was originally from Huaiqing Mansion and was the most familiar with this place. He thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Wukong is quite spiritual. Although this statement may not be the truth, I'm afraid I'm probably right."
"It must be that Deng Qi's military discipline is poor, and there is a vassal in Huaiqing Mansion. The prefect of the city has two fears: one is that we will take the opportunity to enter, and the other is that Deng Qi enters the city and disturbs the place, so he will not accept him!"
After Zhang Shun heard this, he suddenly realized that the military discipline of the officers and soldiers was so bad that even the magistrates of the Ming Dynasty couldn't stand it.
In his previous life, he had been exposed to the concept of "people's soldiers", and his thinking often stayed on the "community-military relationship". Didn't he know that the military and civilians of the Ming Dynasty had already been enemies of each other, and even when Li Zicheng became prosperous in later generations, he even issued a special campaign to suppress the army. An order for peace of mind.
Of course, Zhang Shun still doesn't know about Li Zicheng's future deeds. He just sees the discord between the soldiers and people of the Ming Dynasty and likes him very much. But this hurt Deng Qi. He ran away, scolded him all the way, and wanted to cut the body of the magistrate of Huaiqing Prefecture into thousands of pieces.
However, Zhang Shun and others pursued him closely, and several flying arrows hit his helmet. Fortunately, the helmet was strong and he was not killed on the spot.
Deng Qi really couldn't escape, so he had to send a eloquent confidant. He turned around and tried to persuade Zhang Shun, saying: "The second master is wise and powerful, and uses troops like a god, but my general has obeyed. But doesn't the second master understand that 'leave a thin line in everything you do in the future?'" What’s the point of meeting each other easily?”
Zhang Shun was stunned when he heard this and said: "That Deng Qi is neither a relative of my family nor a capable minister or sage. I slaughtered him like a dog's ear. Why should I do it in the future?"
The confidant was not angry when he heard this, but smiled and said: "There are many talents in the imperial court, but those who are as incompetent as my general are still in the minority. If the general pushes too hard, my general will die on the battlefield. In the future, the imperial court will inevitably send famous generals and soldiers to the battlefield. Wouldn’t it be too late for the second master to regret it?”
Zhang Shun couldn't help laughing when he heard this and said: "You are sharp-toothed and eloquent. In order to persuade me to spare that dog's life, Deng Qi, you will do anything you can!"
"What a pity, what a pity! You have arrived at Huaiqing Mansion. Didn't you hear about the Foolish Old Man who moved the mountains? Now the Ming Dynasty is on the verge of collapse. I will kill one of your soldiers, and you will lose one of your soldiers. I will kill one of your generals in formation. You, too, will One less general. In this way, within a few years, the Ming Dynasty will be over!"
"If you know who I am, why don't you persuade Deng Qi to surrender to me as soon as possible, and you won't lose a good conversation!"
Hearing this, Deng Qi's close associate almost vomited blood and couldn't help but cursed: "How dare people like Zhang Jiao and Huang Chao boast like this? It is an insult to my general. I am not afraid of being defeated and dying, and will be infamy for thousands of years!"
The two of them were bickering like this, but Deng Qi couldn't stand it anymore. He turned his head and saw his cronies chatting and laughing with the "Second Master" from a distance, and couldn't help but said angrily: "Succeed or fail, report back quickly! When life and death are at stake, how can you talk nonsense with the thief without distinguishing the importance?"
After hearing this, Deng Qi's cronies could not argue, so they had no choice but to retreat and rush off, trying to catch up with Deng Qi to report the news.
Zhang Shun waited until the cronies were about to approach Deng Qi's team before he ordered: "Where is Brother Chen? Come with me and shoot this man!"
Chen Changzhen was stunned for a moment after hearing this from afar, but he had no time to ask, so he had to act according to the order. He drew his bow and arrow, and hit the heart of Deng Qi's confidant with an arrow. The man shook three times on his horse and fell off the horse.
Seeing this, Deng Qi couldn't help but became furious and cursed: "You are cowardless and despicable! Since ancient times, when the two armies met, they would not kill the envoys. Can the second master be so narrow-minded, how can he not tolerate an envoy?"
Zhang Shun is not afraid at all now, but he is afraid that the rebel army will be ordered to stay by the officers and soldiers, so he deliberately made this strategy to anger Deng Qi. So when he heard the words, he smiled and said: "The two armies are fighting, and the envoys are not killed. The two sides are just trying to negotiate peace."
"Now you are officials and we are bandits. Since ancient times, officials and bandits have not been at odds with each other, and the king's business has not been peaceful. In this case, the only thing between us is war. What is the use of envoys?"
Deng Qin's teeth were almost broken when he bit it, but he had no choice but to swallow it into his stomach. But he secretly said cruelly: "If I escape today, I will definitely not be able to forgive a thief and repay today's humiliation!"
Both sides chased and escaped until evening. There were fewer and fewer soldiers around Deng Qi, and he was about to be captured alive by Zhang Shun and others.
But there was a noise in front of them, and an army came out of the forest. Deng Qi was shocked and said, "My life is at stake." When he looked up, he saw the flag of Changping Commander-in-Chief Zuo Liangyu, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Zhang Shun couldn't help but be startled when he saw this. He didn't expect that there were righteous men among the officers and soldiers who would take the initiative to rescue Deng Qi.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a while, and found that the other side's troops were not strong enough to engulf the other side, so they felt relieved a little.
Deng Qi fled to Zuo Liangyu's army in panic, and quickly begged: "Thank you Kunshan for the rescue. Now there are few thieves and we have been working hard all the way. It's time to relax and wait for work. Please send troops quickly. A great achievement is ahead of us." .”
This Kunshan is exactly the name of Zuo Liangyu. In later generations, this man was a typical example among the warlords of the Ming Dynasty, "when friendly troops are in trouble, they remain as motionless as a mountain; when enemy troops attack, they turn around like the wind." But at this time, he still had a little bit of loyalty in his heart, and he still cared about the friendship between his colleagues and came to the rescue.
However, it would be impossible for him to take advantage of the fire. Zuo Liangyu suffered a big loss at the hands of the second boss, Zhang Shun and "Chuang Jiang" last time, so he was much more cautious.
Now he has only two thousand elite men under his command. Depending on the terrain, he can still withstand the rebel cavalry raid. If you are greedy for success and rush forward, wouldn't you be seeking your own death? At that time, even Hou Xun will not be able to save himself.
Therefore, he just shook his head and said: "The thieves are all cavalry, and we are infantry. If we attack rashly, if we win, we will not be able to catch up; if we lose, we will have no way to get to the ground. I will not do it. If it is General Deng, If you are willing, please gather your troops and horses and fight another day."
Zhang Shun saw that Zuo Liangyu had not many men under his command, and wanted to make a big move, so he stepped forward and challenged him personally: "I have always heard of the names of these two generals. They are known as famous generals and they are the most brave in the three armies. Now I have brought my troops here specially, and I am willing to fight with them." It’s a showdown between the two of you.”
