Although the night is deep, the lights in Wenshui City are bright, as Chang Yu said, many people can't sleep tonight, those Wenshui people who didn't have time or didn't plan to flee can't sleep in panic, those who were beaten by the thief army one by one The city gentry also can't sleep, and even Li Zicheng, the emperor of Dashun who was welcomed into the county government in the city early in the morning, is also sleepless.

Zhou Yuji said that it would take two days to think about it, and you thought that he was delaying" In the county government, the backbone of the thief army is here, and they have just finished a banquet, and Li Zicheng is the fourth advisor in the middle.

"I have heard for a long time that Zhou Yuji is smelly and hard, and I think that he will not fall, but he is procrastinating" Niu Jinxing said with great certainty, and many people present nodded in agreement.

"Not necessarily, although Zhou is hard, but the overall situation is current, the situation is forced, and his people may not have the heart to surrender, although Taiyuan is behind the high walls, known as more than 200,000 troops, but everyone knows that 50,000 soldiers who can fight are already too much, what does he use to resist my million heroes...... The minister thinks that Zhou is the time for heaven and man to communicate at this time, let him think about what happens in two days, even if it is a delay, it is just two days to sell him face, and the team and so on have no impact, just take the opportunity to rest and recuperate."

Li Zicheng's other military advisor, Gu Junen couldn't help nodding when he stood up and said what he was doing, and some even couldn't help laughing.

Everyone has a tacit understanding of this laughter, naturally it is Gu Junen's sentence of a million heroes, in fact, in these years, they like to take the lead in the war, and they are coaxing, 10,000 people dare to blow 100,000, 100,000 naturally dare to blow million, and their faces do not change color and their hearts do not beat.

However, Gu Junen also told the truth, Taiyuan City does not have many troops, in fact, there are not many soldiers in the entire Xuanda, at this time, the soldiers and horses that Daming can mobilize are already stretched, there are no soldiers to adjust, and there is no money to transfer.

As for the fact that there are many historical materials that Taiyuan has more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops at this time, and Datong and Xuanfu also have more than 200,000 each, etc., it is just that the thief army deliberately exaggerated to give itself a long face.

I believe that at this time, the maximum number of troops in Taiyuan City is 50,000, but they ignore or don't know that Chang Yu, a little butterfly, flickered its wings, and there are still 100,000 soldiers and horses waiting for them in Taiyuan City!

"What do you think?" Li Zicheng looked around and asked, but saw that Liu Zongmin was already drunk and leaning on the chair and fell asleep, while Li Guo, who was directly opposite, was still raising his glass and drinking, Li Laiheng was assassinated by the Ming army, which made him angry and sad.

Li Zicheng is not, he also loves Li Laiheng on weekdays, otherwise he would not give him the authority to become an independent army, but this kid has a thin life!

"The minister agrees with Mr. Gu's proposal" Song Xiance stood up: "It's just two days, what if you give someone that week, is it possible that he can still scatter beans and become a soldier in two days?" ”

Song Xiance smiled and continued: "First, as Mr. Gu said, we can rest and redeploy, and secondly, we can't let the surnamed Zhou be so relieved that it will take two days, and we have to beat it from time to time."

"Strategist, but what is the clever plan?" Li Zicheng asked with a smile.

"I can't talk about a clever plan," Song Xiance shook his head slightly; "I just don't want that guy to live so peacefully," he said, pointing to the east: "You might as well go over there and knock on him."

When everyone heard this, they all knew what it meant, Zhou Yuji set up a defense line from Qi County in the east to Jiaocheng in the west 100 miles south of Taiyuan, and he used heavy troops to deal with the main force of the thief army in Jiaocheng, but Qi County was weak.

"Zhou Yuji set up a defensive line to block our army at the same time, but also cut off the intelligence reconnaissance in the direction of Taiyuan, but the current situation is still relatively clear, the main force of the Ming army is in the west, although the east is not heavy, but it can mobilize other troops on the defense line at any time to rush to help, the mobility is very strong, we do not have many soldiers and horses on the east road, but I am afraid that it will not make any big attack" Li Yanwei pondered.

"Who is on duty on the East Road at this time, and what are the troops?" Li Zicheng asked, since he broke Pingyang Mansion, he has been strategizing in the general direction, and the small details have been handled by his subordinates.

"Li You and Bai Minghe lead two thousand men and horses, and they should be in Pingyao at this time," Li Yan replied.

Li Zicheng has many grass-headed generals, but he is still more familiar with these two people, because of this Eastern Crusade, these two people are the real pioneers, and they took the lead in crossing the Yellow River on the 18th, paving the way for him to lead the main force, and then after Li Guo crossed the river from Jiazhou, these two pioneers became partial and became soy sauce and were sent to the East Road.

"Two thousand men and horses are a bit less" Li Zicheng pondered slightly, and looked up at Li Yan: "According to your meaning, how many more people do you need to send over before you can put pressure on Zhou?"

"Since we have a two-day agreement with him, naturally we can't break our trust with him, at least not on the surface, Li Yan smiled, so we can't actually start a war in these two days, it's okay to attack and harass, so there should not be too many people and horses, but it is difficult to make a difference if there are few, well, five thousand people and horses should be the best!"

Li Yan thought for a while.

Li Zicheng nodded, Song Xiance, Niu Jinxing and others also agreed.

Who to send Li Zicheng raised his eyebrows, glanced at the people present, his eyes fell on one person, and he was about to speak.

"Father, send me" Li Guo stood up, his face was pale, this Wenshui City was stuffy, and he wanted to go out for a walk.

Li Zicheng frowned slightly, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't help it, and nodded lightly: "It's okay, but pay attention to the severity."

"Thank you, father, the child is going to go" said and gave Li Zicheng a salute, turned around and went out, everyone was silent, knowing that Li Guo was going to vent.

"Lord, this is the case, just in case...... I'm afraid of bad things! Li Yan couldn't help but be a little worried.

"It's okay" Li Zicheng raised his hand and shook it gently: "He's not a child, he knows how important things are" said and sat down, glanced at Liu Zongmin, who woke up in a daze, and said: "If Zhou Yuji is a procrastination plan, what do you think he is procrastinating?"

"I'm afraid it's the thing that the Lord is most worried about" Niu Jinxing smiled, and Li Zicheng's face became solemn.

What worries him most? Worried that the king of Jin would run away, then everyone would fly away, you must know that in addition to expanding his territory, his original intention of the expedition was to plunder wealth and resources, and the wealth of a palace can be called the oil and water of several cities.

This is also the history of him as soon as he took Pingyang Mansion, he asked Liu Zongmin to go non-stop to besiege Taiyuan, just because he was afraid that the King of Jin would run away.

"Only give him two days, and when the time comes, if he surrenders, it will be fine, if he does not surrender, send troops immediately!" Li Zicheng slapped the table heavily.

The sky was bright, on the second floor of the Great South Gate City Tower, Chang Yu rubbed his sleepy eyes, Fang San had already prepared hot water for him,

It was already more than nine o'clock in the morning, which was a rare lazy sleep for Chang Yu, after all, he was exhausted from running back and forth for the past few days.

"Master, it's lively outside the city today......" When Chang Yu was washing, Fang San was foaming at the side, but Chang Yu scolded him: "What is not a master, don't give me this set."

"Yes, Factory? ......" Fang San shrank his head and looked at Chang Yu's face: "Boss?"

Hum! Chang Yu looked arrogant: "Tell me what's going on?"

"A corpse was found next to Haizi in the west of the city, and guess who it was? It's that Li Zhisheng...... But he was killed by the thief's spy, trying to blame Dongchang to provoke the relationship between the military and the people in the city, creating chaos, and this matter finally aroused the anger of the people, and now those literati in Sanli Academy are crazy and accuse the thieves of evil deeds......"

"Did you get the murderer?" Chang Yuwan asked with a smile.

"It is said that I got it, I have already recruited it, and I have recruited a lot of vicious plans, such as attempting to poison, assassinating officials, and so on" Fang Sandao.

"That's it?" Chang Yu smiled, walked down the floor, and came to the side room, where the food was still hot, so he sat down and devoured it.

"And ......" Fang San pondered for a moment and said: "Suddenly there are many refugees in the city who are accusing the thieves of evil deeds, I heard that the thief army is hypocritical, saying one thing and doing another, and after the fact that the city is broken, all evil will be done......

Fang San gushed endlessly, smearing Hengfei was telling what he had heard, Chang Yu was smiling and eating and drinking the whole time, he knew that last night's trick worked, using water army, black powder to create public opinion guidance As a later generation, he is the best at gathering people's hearts and being unanimous with the outside world, which is the foundation of victory.

After the water and food were full, Chang Yu walked out of the city tower, supported the wall and looked into the distance, there were busy laborers for miles outside the city, he dug trenches, and the work was in full swing.

There are also a large number of old and young women from the West Mountain to cut wood, is cutting wood by the moat, at first Chang Yu felling and selling a pass, the rest of the people thought it was as a sasswood, at this time even if he did not explain, everyone also knew his actual intentions.

That is to sharpen the wood in the trench under the stumbling, at the same time in the moat ice to drill a hole densely spread the sharp wood, splashed with water, in a moment was frozen by ice, so many sharp wood so that the original flat river ice immediately turned into a moat, so that the thief army whether it is cavalry or infantry or artillery can not move an inch, even if they burn, the ice is also melted, the effect of the moat can be reused, want to get close to Taiyuan City also have to pay a certain price.

Seeing that the deputy commander-in-chief Ying Shisheng and other civil and military attachés were busy outside the city, pointing and pointing everywhere, patrolling back and forth, and still doing their duty, at this very moment, there were Dongchang Fanzi and Jinyi Wei Mingcha secretly staring, and they did not dare to relax again.

I didn't see Cai Maode, I am afraid that he is still in the city with that group of civil officials to play their best verbal games.

After watching for a while, Chang Yu beat his horse on the city and headed north, and after a short time, he came down from the city and went straight to the military camp.

At this time, there were not many troops stationed in the barracks, most of them were on duty in or in the city, but they did not seem empty, on the contrary, there was a feeling of crowding.

And these comings and goings seemed to be in a hurry but they were not soldiers, Chang Yu knew that this was the arrival of firearms experts transferred from other places.

He paid a lot of money to hire firearms craftsmen to make gunpowder overnight and make some simple explosive firearms, and the results were already achieved under the heavy reward.

After entering the forbidden place of the barracks, Fan Jiaqian and Hu Ling, who were on duty, hurriedly surrounded them and complained about their grievances, saying that the barracks were too boring and lonely, and they wanted to go to the front line to make waves.

Chang Yu smiled, did not deny, entered the arsenal, checked, but saw that many firearms craftsmen were either busy with their hands, or groups of three or five were discussing something, very professional.

Chang Yu casually picked up a thing on the ground and looked at it, this is a bamboo grenade, with a burning wire on it, looked at it again and again, turned his head and asked Fan Jiaqian: "How is the explosive power of this thing?" ”

"It's more powerful than the firecrackers you said, there are gravel inside, once it bursts, it can affect within three zhang" Fan Jiaqiandao.

Chang Yu smiled: "Do more of this thing, although the lethality is not big, but it is very bluffing!" “

After wandering around the barracks for a long time, it was already noon, Chang Yu was leaving, Fan Jiaqian and Hu Ling came over again to beg and beg to play together.

Chang Yu told with a straight face that the military camp is an important place, with hundreds of thousands of silver in it, a granary, and a temporary military factory.

As soon as Chang Yu said this, Hu Ling and Fan Jiaqian suddenly became proud, the factory father handed over such an important post to himself, which was extremely important, and the two of them immediately stopped thinking about going outside to have a good time, and watched Chang Yu leave the barracks.

"Boss, where are we going?" The attendant Fang San looked at the sky: "Why don't you have lunch with Lord Cai?" “

"Hey, what do you have to talk about with his old man" Chang Yu rolled his eyes, looked south, and then smiled: "Let's go to the palace."

"That's right, the food in the palace is better," Fang San smiled and helped Chang Yu to get on the horse.

"Food, our family doesn't pay attention to it" Chang Yu smiled: "But there is indeed a beautiful and delicious ......"

"What?" Fang San asked.

"What do you know so much" Chang Yu rolled his eyes angrily, and went straight to the north gate of the palace with a few entourages.
