Boom, boom, boom, boom!

Another wave of shells came, and dozens of iron balls of all sizes hit the infantry formations in the trespassing army. These infantrymen were not much better than hungry soldiers, and the picture was equally tragic.

In front of the iron-blooded shells, manpower is indeed worse than tofu project.

At this moment, life is so fragile.

Boom, boom, boom, boom!

Another wave of artillery shells arrived, but they hit the central position of the bandits. This was the dense area between the rebels and the old camp.

They are obviously elite old camp troops, but they are still vulnerable in front of the shells.

The soldiers of the old camp who have experienced many battles can no longer stand the power of shells. They rode on horseback and were beaten to death, were injured or lost their lives. The scenes of howling and neighing can be seen everywhere!

The soldiers of the old camp can be said to be the essence of the rebel army. The fighter plane among the soldiers. One of the casualties and injuries made the generals of the rebel army feel sorry for him. Now they are all broken one by one. There is no way to rescue them at all. This is a big blow!

At this moment, the artillery of the Zhu family army seemed to cover the entire rebel position, making them feel that none of them was safe.

Another wave of shells whistled, crackling sounds of fractures, and people shouted and horses neighed, causing only hundreds or thousands of casualties every time.

If there are more than 100,000 people, how long can we last?

At present, the only hope that Gao Yingxiang is looking forward to is that the cannon has a cooldown and cannot always fire continuously.

Finally, the sound of cannons stopped.

Li Zicheng and others were delighted, thinking, could it be a chance?

However, when I looked sideways, I realized that the sound of hooves in front and sideways was like thunder, and thousands of cavalry of the Zhu family rushed towards their positions.

The chaotic bandit army, with a bang, the entire front army collapsed. Then the tide-like collapse and turmoil spread to the infantry army and to the central army. No more formal military formations could be planned!

It turned out that when the Zhu family army saw that the time came, they launched a charge, not their time.

The earth shook, and the sound of hooves like a tide sounded. The army broke into disarray, and soldiers shouting for escape were everywhere. Gao Yingxiang and others looked as if they were ashamed, but they thought to themselves: "Is it just like this? Another defeat?"

Half a day has passed!

The tens of thousands of thieves who besieged the city, under the siege of Zhu family and Chen Yongfu, finally tens of thousands of soldiers escaped, with only more than 5,000 remaining, mostly old camps and horse teams.

This prisoner of war captured nearly 40,000 soldiers, and the others were cannon fodder people, with about 600,000 taels of gold and silver. It was obvious that the soldiers captured near Ruzhou.

However, the food and grass after success were less than a thousand stones.

The army of 100,000 people in the rebel army had only this little food left. It was obvious that the rebel army was about to run out of food. No wonder it was so anxious to attack Ruzhou City.

In addition, there were also many average quality knives, guns, bows and arrows seized, and more than 5,000 horses and mules.

Among these harvests, all the average quality swords, guns, bows and arrows were given to Chen Yongfu and others. The silver was divided equally, and more than 5,000 other horses and mules were owned by the Zhu family army.

Although the officials and soldiers guarding the city were jealous, everyone could tell who had the greatest contribution to this battle.

Besides, even if you want to rob, you can't rob the Zhu family army!

Think about it, in this war, the casualties of officers and soldiers were extremely minor, and such a small price achieved such a great victory was all because of the Zhu family army.

The Zhu family army has such strong combat power. No one can win against it.

The news of the great victory in Ruzhou was immediately reported in the court, with drums and music in the city and firecrackers. The governor Qian Zuozheng held a celebration banquet, and the city was joking for several days. The people and soldiers were all happy!

When the letter of report of the victory in Ruzhou was spread along the city, the first stop was Luoyang.

For a moment, the various places in Luoyang were shaking, and all the prefectures were spreading this matter. The good news came to the capital, and the cabinet ministers were not surprised by the victory of the Zhu family army. Perhaps in their hearts, it was a strange thing that the Zhu family army could not win a big victory, okay?

Although the victory report stated that the battle was jointly supported by the Zhu family army, Chen Yongfu and Qian Zuozheng, the officials in the court knew what was going on at a glance.

However, knowing that it is one thing, but how to reward it is another.

You should know that the tradition of civil servants controlling the army and military generals has been passed down for more than 200 years. Many officials were very dissatisfied with the Zhu family army, an army that had only heard of the emperor and the Longhou of the Four Seas.

So, in the end, they really divided the credit into three.

Just when there was a big victory here, bad news came.

Yang Sichang issued nine orders to Zuo Liangyu to enter Sichuan to suppress the orders. Zuo Liangyu ignored the orders sent and remained motionless in Huguang. The rest of his troops were either incompetent or domineering, which led to great damage to Sichuan!

This gave Zhang Xian, who was dividing the road to the other side, various opportunities to succeed.

As he got down along the way, his troops captured dozens of county towns, robbed countless gold, silver and food, and even heard that he had cannons in his hands. As a result, there were no fireworks in the place where he passed by.

Yang Sichang was even more angry when he received the news of the Zhu family's victory in Ruzhou. Because in his understanding, the Zhu family's still obedient Zhu family also took action on his own.

He forced himself to vomit blood and ordered him to come back many times to make the Zhu family army meet him quickly.

However, the King of Fu in Luoyang City was worried about his life and kept writing letters to the court to arrange for the Zhu family army to stay here for some days.

As a result, the forces in the North Korea showed a strong and graceful state.

Finally, Li Zilong thought that Yang Sichang didn’t give money or food, who did he think he was?

Is the Zhu family's family defeated him? He thought he was the Dragon Marquis of the Four Seas?

So soon, the army still headed towards Luoyang.

Luoyang City is a relative vassal land, and King Fu is the emperor's uncle. From Ruzhou to Luoyang, it has to pass through some mountains, which is inconvenient to transport. In addition, there are also supplies when it comes to Luoyang City, so Li Zilong temporarily existed in Ruzhou.

Of course, artillery, gunpowder and other supplies, logistics, etc. must follow the army.

Qian Zuozheng was very happy that the Zhu family army had left some logistics personnel here to guard the supplies. In his opinion, these people were called baggage soldiers, but they were very elite. They were much stronger than ordinary Ming soldiers. With them assisting in defending the city, even if the bandits came back, Qian Zuozheng was sure to defend them for a long time.

Before leaving, Li Zilong asked Qian Zuozheng how to deal with the 40,000 prisoners of the thief army.

Qian Zuozheng replied: "The thief is also a child and was a good citizen. If they were willing to turn from evil to justice, the court should give them a great advantage and give them a chance to be a new person and make a family."

Other officials also agreed with Qian Zuozheng's opinion. Li Zilong just looked at them deeply and said nothing.

Although he was worried, Li Zilong's guest army passed by, and his level was not as high as others, so he couldn't control so many.
