Li Zhi led an army of 120,000 people and ran wildly from day to night before slowing down a little.

"They didn't come after them, did they?"

"Your Highness, don't worry, we're not chasing you!" The staff member gasped and said, "Your Highness, let everyone take a rest!"

From Shangyong to Fangshan, it is more than 120 miles. The cavalry is okay, but the legs of the infantry are almost useless.

Even war horses have to stop and eat grass at this time.

Li Zhi nodded, he was also very tired, "Bury the pot and make rice, let everyone rest for an hour, and after an hour, we will continue on our way to Xiangzhou!"

They went to Xiangzhou not only because they needed additional personnel, but mainly because they left overnight three days ago, leaving behind a large amount of luggage and only less than ten days of rations.

It was originally enough to support them in their fight to the capital.

But now, after Shangyong was attacked by surprise, most of the rations were lost.

If they could not get replenishment within two days, they would have to kill horses for meat, or rob people along the way.

"Is there any news from Henan Road?" Li Zhi asked.

"No, contact has been lost!" the staff said.

Li Zhi was silent for a while, "Cui Bolin and Pei Weiyuan should not be so useless. When we arrive at Xiangzhou, we will capture Xiangzhou and use Xiangzhou as our base."

After saying that, he added in his mind, "If not, we will have no choice but to flee from Yuezhou!"

As big as the world is, there is always a place for him to settle down.

He just couldn't figure out where these cavalry came from.

Li Cungong was held back by the White Lotus Sect, and Qin Xiangru was held back by Pei Weiyuan and the others.

That's what the emergency news said.

The fourteenth secret report did not say that the imperial court had re-sent new troops.

The imperial court also did not send many troops abroad.

He took a mouthful of canned food depressedly.

This can is produced in the Bohai Bay. It is an excellent ration for individual soldiers. It is large in quantity, tastes good, and is extremely easy to carry.

He spent huge sums of money to buy many.

When he thought that everything he ate was produced by Qin Mo, he felt panicked.

But the journey was bumpy and I was very hungry. I fucked two bamboo tubes in three strokes, and I licked my lips with unfinished content.

He sighed secretly in his heart, "How wonderful it would be if I had Qin Mo to help me!"

After resting for an hour, Li Zhi ordered to leave. The march slowed down obviously at night, but Li Zhi was more vigilant now and sent scouts to Xiangzhou to investigate in advance. If anything went wrong, he could change the route in advance to avoid being hit.

trick.

"Why is the moon so bright tonight?" Li Zhi looked at his staff, "What day is it today?"

"Your Highness, today is the 15th, the Mid-Autumn Festival!" the staff member sighed.

Mid-Autumn Festival?

Li Zhi was silent. If it had been in previous years, he would have been in the palace right now, writing poems, admiring the moon, and playing various interesting games with his father, the emperor, his mother, and his brothers and sisters.

His father would definitely ask Qin Mo to cook many of his specialty dishes, and it would be great to have a grilled knife.

The beautiful wife is sitting next to her, her sweet son is rejoicing on her knees, the flowers are blooming and the moon is full, and the whole family is happy.

He sighed silently, feeling a little regretful in his heart.

Looking at myself now running away like a lost dog, is it worth it?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he immediately slapped himself, "Li Zhi, Li Zhi, you are really out of your mind. Think about the suffering you suffered in those days. If you want to control your own destiny, you must become the supreme.

All good things come with hardships, and these are the greatest hardships!"

Thinking of this, he strengthened his heart again.

In the middle of the night, the staff said: "Your Highness, please rest on the spot, everyone can't walk anymore."

Li Zhi gritted his teeth and said: "If we persist, we will be able to reach Yongqing before dawn. Think about the enemy, they will not give us time to rest!"

The staff had no choice but to pass on the order and continue on their way.

Finally, when the sky turned white, Yongqing City showed its outline.

Li Zhi was overjoyed, "Everyone speed up the march, Yongqing City has arrived!"

Everyone was also overjoyed and couldn't help but speed up their pace.

But when they were more than a hundred feet away from Yongqing City, there was a smell of gunpowder smoke in the air.

This smell gave Li Zhi an ominous premonition.

The scouts who went to investigate rushed back, shouting loudly: "Run away quickly, Yongqing City has been captured by the enemy!"

They couldn't hear clearly at first, until the gate of Yongqing City opened wide and thousands of war horses rushed out from inside.

A cold air rose from the soles of Li Zhi's feet, "How is this possible? Where did the cavalry come from? Are they unable to fly?"

Li Zhi's mentality exploded, and he took the horse's head and was about to leave, but behind him was an impenetrable team that was surrounded.

Not to mention the horses, no one can move it.

"The enemy is attacking, prepare to fight!" In desperation, Li Zhi shouted loudly.

Everyone's eyes were about to burst, so they braced themselves up and picked up the weapons in their hands.

But their hands are trembling.

I thought I could have a good rest when I came to Yongqing, but who would have thought that there were cavalry ambushing here!

With the support of everyone, Li Zhi entered the crowd.

There are not many people on the other side. Although they are tired, they may not be unable to win!

But the facts proved that he thought too much.

Li Zhi stood on a high ground and watched the opponent's cavalry holding something like a fire stick in their hands, followed by the fire stick making a sound.

Far away, their men fell off their horses!

"What is this!" Li Zhi's scalp went numb.

This is neither a thunder cannon nor a crossbow. It can hit people from such a long distance. Is it some new type of weapon?

The sound was endless, and the charging cavalry fell off their horses one after another.

Immediately afterwards, what Li Zhi feared most appeared.

The opponent actually took out a thunder cannon.

There are probably more than two hundred thunder cannons spread out!

Li Zhi's eyes were about to burst. Explosions rang out one after another, and his staff were scared out of their wits. "Hey, the imperial court has such a weapon, why should I follow in the rebellion? I've really eaten lard, and I'm deceived!"

Li Zhi saw that he wanted to escape, so he chopped off his head with a knife, then grabbed the staff's head and said angrily: "Whoever dares to escape from the battle will be punished. If you stand up for me, even if you die, you will be punished."

Let me capture these people!"

Li Zhi looked ferocious. He had no way to escape now. There were pursuers behind him and fierce enemies in front of him. If he couldn't win again, he wouldn't even have a chance to go to sea!

Everyone was afraid of Li Zhi, so they had no choice but to rush up.

But they marched all day and all night, and were exhausted to the extreme.

Not to mention, the opponent's bombardment was much denser than yesterday's wave of people!

The battlefield was divided by artillery fire.

On the other side, Li Yue stood on the side of the Thunder Army and commanded everything.

After leaving Rongcheng, he went all the way to Xiangzhou. When he arrived in Xiangzhou, he learned that Yuchi Nobuxiong had captured half of the rebels. The main force of the rebels fled to Jinzhou with a false shot.

Li Yue immediately pursued him from behind and came to Yongqing from Xiangzhou. He annihilated the rebel army in Yongqing City. When he was about to leave, he encountered the main force of the fleeing rebels.
