After retreating into the mountains, King Chuang Yingxiang gathered his men and horses, united with the rebels in the mountains, and organized many breakouts, all of which failed, and were gradually compressed to the mountains west of Yunyang.

On this day, King Chuang Yingxiang gathered the leaders of the rebels again, and said: "It has been more than a month since we entered the mountain, and the food carried by the brothers has already been eaten, and the things that can be eaten in the mountain are almost eaten. ”

The leaders of the rebels from all walks of life said one after another: "Surrounded like an iron bucket, Lu Xiangsheng made it clear that he wanted to trap and starve us to death, how vicious, we must not fulfill his wish." ”

Chuang Wang Yingxiang said: "Yes, you can't follow his wishes, let's talk about it, what should we do next?" ”

Everyone shook their heads and said again: "We have tried many times, and there is no gap to be found, if you want to get out, you can only fight hard." ”

Chuang Wang Yingxiang sighed and said: "If you want to be able to fight hard, we will fight hard at the beginning, and today, the brothers are sleepy and hungry, and the officers and soldiers are recuperating and vigorous, how to fight hard?" Let's think about it again, and see what more suitable way to do it? ”

When everyone heard this, they each bowed their heads in contemplation.

At the same time, Lu Xiangsheng said confidently: "These days, everyone has done a good job, the Liukou has broken through many times and has been repulsed, Qin Yiming and Lei Shisheng's advance and suppression have also been quite effective, the Liukou is now oppressed in the mountains with a radius of less than ten miles, and in another ten days, we will change from 'multi-way encirclement and one-way suppression' to 'multi-road simultaneous clearance'."

At that time, the rogues are so hungry that they may not even be able to walk, and we will be able to work with one blow, annihilate the rogues in one fell swoop, and build a miracle in the world. ”

The generals said in unison: "It's all up to the Prime Minister's strategy." ”

Before the words fell, the Chinese army hurriedly came in and said: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Liukou Zhang Xianzhong Department suddenly escaped from the encirclement of the Governor-General, first entered Henan to attack Xuzhou, and killed Zuo Liangyu's brother", obtained a huge amount of supplies, and then killed Pan Keda and others in the battle of Anqingjiadian. ”

What's going on here? It turned out that after all, he had been with Wang Yingxiang for many years, and after Wang Yingxiang led his troops to leave, Zhang Xianzhong was in a trance for a long time because of guilt.

The military advisor Xu Yixian persuaded: "The cavalry of Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen has already surrounded them, how can they deal with such a state?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong said angrily: "You dog, don't you have a lot of ideas?" You can deal with it. ”

Xu Yixian knew his thoughts, and said: "After King Chuang left, I immediately ordered people to pay attention to King Chuang's movements at any time. ”

Zhang Xianzhong's eyes widened suddenly, and said, "You dog thing knows our family's thoughts, why don't you say it quickly?" ”

Xu Yixian sighed and said, "King Chuang is not lucky, he just entered Huguang and entered Lu Xiangsheng's ambush, and now he has been forced into the mountains......"

Zhang Xianzhong was taken aback, interrupted him, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, talk quickly, what's going on?" ”

Xu Yixian said: "I organized several breakthroughs, but Lu Xiangsheng surrounded him like an iron bucket, but it was useless. ”

Zhang Xianzhong asked urgently: "Is there no one to save it?" ”

Xu Yixian said: "Outside the encirclement, we will be with Li Zicheng, of course Li Zicheng wants to save him, but he was stared at by Hong Chengchou, and he didn't stand out after a few bursts." ”

Zhang Xianzhong said: "Then, let's go and save it." ”

Xu Yixian shook his head and said, "I can't save it." ”

Zhang Xianzhong said angrily: ", I'll wait for this to turn around and rush over, no matter how good Lu Xiangsheng is, can he withstand our internal and external attacks?" ”

Xu Yixian said: "In that case, it can't be saved, if you can't get it, even we have to catch it." ”

Saying that, seeing that Zhang Xianzhong was going to say more, he hurriedly said: "Lu Xiangsheng is determined to make meritorious contributions, and he has already made careful preparations, King Chuang They have been besieged for many days, and they don't have much combat power, before we rescue King Chuang, Hong Chengchou has already followed, isn't it just their plan to gather and annihilate?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong said unwillingly: "Li Zicheng and they can't get out, should we give up?" No, our old Zhang resolutely not. ”

Xu Yixian said with a smile: "We are resolutely no." As he spoke, he walked to the map, pointed to the map and said, "Let's quickly get rid of the cavalry of Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen and leap into Henan."

Attack Xuzhou, there is Zuo Liangyu's brother here, let's just kill him, get out of the evil anger in our chest, and make some supplements, and then force Anqing, meet whoever kills whom, the more ruthless he kills, the more Lu Xiangsheng will be unable to hold his breath, and when he relaxes a little, King Chuang just took the opportunity to come out. ”

Zhang Xianzhong turned his anger into a smile and said: "You still have some conscience, just act quickly according to what you say." ”

Lu Xiangsheng was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood Zhang Xianzhong's intentions, and said: "Failure often lies in the fact that the person who does not be able to concentrate on the same.

We can't let the same stone trip twice, and this time we're going to leave him alone, just surround me with the gangsters in the mountains. ”

Qin Yiming said worriedly: "What if they make a big fuss?" The emperor has always only focused on the result and does not look at the process. ”

Lu Xiangsheng was also worried, but he still said: "Even if they make a big fuss, we can't let go of these rogues in the mountains." ”

After speaking, seeing that the generals were still worried, he said: "After all, they escaped from the Governor, do you think the Governor can let them go?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng's words were obviously not resolute enough, not so much to persuade the generals, but to persuade himself.

The generals were about to say more, but the Chinese army hurriedly came in and said: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, Lord Wang Jiazhen, the left attendant of the Ministry of War, has come by order." ”

Lu Xiangsheng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly greeted him.

Wang Jiazhen was not polite, announced the holy decree, and looked at Lu Xiangsheng with straight eyes.

Lu Xiangsheng knew his intentions, sighed secretly, explained again and again, and went to King Qin, the capital division. Not to mention.

Wang Jiazhen, the word is right, alias Xuan Seal, Fan Xiang Xinggutun Village, entered the office in 1608, several ups and downs, and the heart of loyalty to the country has not changed.

After handing over to Lu Xiangsheng, he didn't have time to rest, so he went to the front line to inspect in person, and asked about the situation, and said: "Xiangsheng knows soldiers, but after all, he is a literati, although he can win, it takes time and food, so it is better to remove the encirclement, let the rogues come out, and take the opportunity to annihilate them." ”

The generals said one after another: "The plan was set by the former prime minister, and it will be changed as soon as Lord Wang comes, won't it be inappropriate?" ”

Wang Jiazhen said: "Those who are handsome have their own opinions, and if you have to copy them bluntly, it will be difficult to work, so the generals should follow the order." ”

Chuang Wang Yingxiang discussed with the leaders of the rebels for several days, but he still got nothing, and he had no plan, and the news that Wang Jiazhen took over as Lu Xiangsheng came.

King Chuang Yingxiang was overjoyed and said: "The reason why the court is chaotic is largely because the court officials have their own opinions, and they never pay attention to the connection between the predecessors and the predecessors.

Although this Wang Jiazhen also has some skills, he will definitely revise Lu Xiangsheng's strategy, which gives us an opportunity.

Let's do it, let's stop talking about it, go separately and try again, once there is a gap, we will take advantage of the situation to break out. ”
