Chapter 196: The Leader of the Thief
Chang Yu and the others also turned over and got on their horses, and Duan Wuhu in the distance saw this and immediately hit his horse to greet him. At this time, some details must be in place, and if you are not careful, you may be preempted by the other party, such as a surprise attack.
"Lord Cai, how do you feel? It's not a big problem to delay for a few more days," Chang Yu asked.
Cai Maode's expression was much more relaxed than the day before: "As you expected, the cow thief likes to wear a high hat, and the soul called by the old man is about to float up, don't dare to say anything else, at least it is certain that they believe that we are really going to surrender now."
"Lao Niu and Li Yan are not in harmony, you always deliberately favor one over the other, and if you like the cattle thief, it should have some unexpected effects subtly" Chang Yu said and glanced at Zhu Xianxuan next to him, but saw that he had been frowning deeply and his expression was solemn.
So I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, who was it, standing close at hand and listening to the thieves judging themselves, undisguised extortion, that was not a taste in my heart, once upon a time his old Zhu family was invincible in the world, but now it was broken and sought to be perfect, which is a shame.
Until he arrived at the military base in Fenyang Village, Zhu Xianxuan didn't say a word, he sat in silence, and the food in front of him didn't move. Others knew that he was sad in his heart, and he didn't look for boredom, and even Chang Yu didn't bother him.
Chang Yu overthrew the three major generals of the thief army in one fell swoop, and he was in a good mood, holding his job and chatting with Zhou Yuji and Niu Yong about this matter, while a literati like Cai Maode was not interested in such a thing, so he sat with Song Lian and whispered.
"This king really wants to slaughter that plague cow with his own hands!"
After lunch, when Chang Yu, Zhou Yuji and Niu Yong were standing at the entrance of the village looking at the south and chatting, Zhu Xianxuan's voice came from behind him, and he walked over with a blue face.
Chang Yu looked at him and smiled slightly: "Has the prince ever practiced martial arts?" ”
"There is a teaching in the palace, and I know how to do some punches and kicks" Zhu Xianxuan was stunned, not knowing what Chang Yu meant.
"I'm afraid that the chances of the prince slashing him are too small, although the plague bull doesn't know whether he is good at fists and feet, but his escape kung fu is first-class" Zhou Yuji laughed, he slipped under the nose of the last general.
"Just how fast his little short legs can run"
Zhu Xianxuan snorted, looked at Chang Yu and said: "Can Ming'er Factory Gong arrange it, this king wants to compete with him, and if he can't kill him, beat him up to relieve his hatred."
Ah, Chang Yu was stunned, then looked at Zhou Yuji and Niu Yong, and then burst into laughter, Zhu Xianxuan was simply cute, silly and ridiculous.
Niu Jinxing prides himself on being the prime minister of the thief army and a literati, how can he agree to fight and kill with him, even Li Yan, a civil and military all-rounder, Chang Yu invited him to fight, in addition to knowing that he is invincible, how can it not be a kind of self-sustaining identity, this is the so-called forced character of the literati.
Seeing the three of them laughing, Zhu Xianxuan couldn't get off the stage, and just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Chang Yu waving his hand: "Lord Wang, this is not the time to vent your personal anger, and besides, there is no meeting arrangement tomorrow!" ”
Well? Zhu Xianxuan was stunned: "Didn't you say that you would meet again tomorrow, how can you ......?"
"If you want to catch the old and procrastinate, our family is just going to make the blind Li itchy to the heart, and I can't stop it, let him follow the rhythm of our family!" Chang Yu smiled.
Zhu Xianxuan is also a smart person, and after a little contemplation, he understood his meaning, looked at Chang Yu and said lightly; "The one-eyed dragon should be very entangled at this time."
Not! Li Zicheng was not entangled, on the contrary, he was extremely excited.
paced back and forth in the hall, his fists clenched: "From what the prime minister can see, this matter is now a certainty?" ”
"Back to the Lord, eight or nine are not far from ten!" Niu Jinxing said: "With Cai Maode's arrogant heart, if he has no intention of surrendering, he will not call Weichen a prime minister, so he is already a recognition of Weichen's identity and the Great Shun Dynasty."
Li Yan also nodded slightly beside him: "And the previous minister and prime minister secretly speculated that the King of Jin should be at the scene at that time, but he did not determine his identity, but when he left, Cai Maode generously admitted that the King of Jin was in Jiaocheng at this time!" ”
Niu Jinxing took over the conversation: "It can be seen that the King of Jin attaches great importance to this peace negotiation, and now the two sides insist on how to ensure the family property of the King of Jin, and the humble position is as previously agreed, but the other party refuses, so he has to come back and ask the Lord."
Li Zicheng was silent for a while, and looked up at a few strategists: "What do you think?" ”
"The minister thinks that the impact of the Jin King's voluntary surrender is huge, not only for the entire Shanxi, but also for the entire Ming Dynasty, which is a big earthquake, so even if you give up the Jin King's family property, the gain is huge" Li Yan took the lead in speaking.
"What do you mean to agree to the other party's request?" Li Zicheng said lightly.
Li Yan nodded silently.
"The minister also has this intention" Niu Jinxing immediately spoke, this was the first time he and Li Yan stood on the same front and completely agreed with the other party's opinion.
"What do you think?" Li Zicheng asked Gu Junen and Song Xiance on the side again.
The two of them lowered their heads and frowned: "The minister suggested that it be discussed again, then the intention of the King of Jin to surrender is clear, presumably there is a bottom line in psychology, and he has made the worst plans, we might as well hold on a little longer, after all, that industry is very considerable!" Song Xiance said.
Li Zicheng nodded slightly when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "It makes sense, just be tough, if he really wants to surrender, he will definitely compromise, if he really doesn't take a step back, he will agree with him, once the king of Jin surrenders, then Datong can't run away with his hands."
"Obey! Let's try it tomorrow," Niu Jinxing hurriedly said.
"What is the whereabouts of Xiong Tong and Chen Shangzhi, have you ever heard?" Li Zicheng asked again, he was very puzzled, Zhou Yuji had cheated before, captured Xiong Tong, Chen Shangzhi and Niu Jinxing's son alive, and then released the calf because Cai Maode came forward, but for Xiong, Chen and the others pretended not to know and didn't mention it.
"It's a step too late" Niu Jinxing sighed: "According to Cai Maode, after the two were captured alive by Zhou Yuji, they were cut down that night, and their heads were sent to the capital!" ”
"Anyway, the two of them can exchange Taiyuan City and the surrender of King Jin and Cai Maode, which is far enough!" Li Zicheng nodded lightly.
Suddenly, his eyes turned to Li Guo, who was silent next to him: "Guo'er, you said that the little eunuch next to Zhou Yuji is really so powerful?" ”
"Everyone saw it with their own eyes, yesterday I heard that Hao Shaoqi was defeated in his hands, and the child was also surprised, today he went with his uncle and others, at first sight, his appearance is extraordinary, but his behavior is very disgusting, and he is disdainful in his heart, how can he fight after the fight, his fierceness, appalling!"
"Is it really one against three, and you are all defeated?" Li Zicheng was surprised
"Lost in a mess, no one survived ten rounds!" Li Guo smiled bitterly.
Gao Yigong also shook his head with a wry smile: "To be exact, I haven't survived five rounds!" ”
There is such a character, but he is a eunuch without eggs! Li Zicheng was even more surprised, he hadn't heard of Hao Shaoqi's fiasco yesterday, but after Li Guo came back today, he told him about this time, which made him feel incredible.
"Could it be that he is also burly and born with divine power" Li Zicheng knows the martial arts of his godson Li Guo.
"Medium stature, no divine power, but his skills are really superb, especially good at hand-to-hand grappling, if he really tests his strength, he will be vulnerable, and he is good at hand-to-hand combat, if he charges immediately, the strength is not known" Li Guo pondered for a while.
Such a person, unexpectedly defeated the four fierce generals under his command in a row, Li Zicheng's eyes lit up, if he recruited his subordinates, it would be like a tiger with wings, and the role was even greater than Cai Maode, after all, Lao Cai's head relied on influence, and this kind of fierce general can really help you attack the city!
Hehe, suddenly Liu Zongmin, who was playing soy sauce next to him, showed a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth, and even pouted: "A eunuch can be blown into the sky."
Li Guo was furious, he and Liu Zongmin have always been at odds, this is undoubtedly mocking him, recently he was very angry because Li Laiheng was assassinated, where can he stand it at this time, Huo's got up: "Is Ruhou going to point me out?"
"If you have a heart, I'm afraid you won't succeed!" Liu Zongmin stood up, this high-ranking position and Li Zicheng are brothers again, and their style has always been domineering, sometimes even Li Zicheng is not in his eyes, and it is even more conceivable for Li Guo, this time he has not given Li Zicheng any face.
"Enough! What are you messing about" Li Zicheng glared at Li Guo, and then said to Liu Zongmin: "Fighting with children every day, do you still look like an uncle!" “
Hmph, Liu Zongmin pursed his lips and sat down.
"Ruhou is brave and invincible, famous all over the world, but there are really people who are not convinced" At this time, Gao Yigong, who was wearing a pair of pants with Li Guo, stood up, dragged Li Cheng back, took a step forward and walked to Liu Zongmin and said with a smile.
"How, do you want to stretch out?" Liu Zongmin rolled his eyes!
"I'm so successful" Gao Yigong smiled: "But when the little eunuch left just now, he said that he wanted to see Ruhou, saying that he was practicing his hands to see if Ruhou was famous!" “
"And, a group of useless people were lifted to the sky by a group of useless people!" Liu Zongmin looked disdainful, but Li Guo was not the only one who was stimulated by these words, but only Li Guo dared to contradict him.
"Yes, Ruhou is invincible in the world, but he doesn't even dare to fight without eggs!" Li Guo is also a pout!
"Fart, who said Lao Tzu didn't dare, Lao Tzu will go now, you should call Lao Tzu for the eggless one!" Liu Zongmin was furious and shot the case!
"Not enough trouble!" Li Zicheng shouted angrily.
Li Guo lowered his head and sat down, Liu Zongmin also closed his mouth, although he was domineering, but the power of the blind Li was not false.
"Since the King of Jin is in Jiaocheng, can you arrange a meeting, I can talk to him! The prime minister's time is already right now." After Li Zicheng suppressed the two thorns, he turned to Niu Jinxing and asked.
Niu Jinxing nodded: "When we meet tomorrow, the minister should mention this!" “
When night fell, in the Yanai of Jiaocheng County, Chang Yu and Zhu Xianxuan toasted and became three people.
The two young people should have been very cheerful and hilarious when drinking, but the situation was not optimistic at this time, especially Zhu Xianxuan's psychological pressure was particularly high, and after a few glasses of wine, he actually cried loudly.
Chang Yu just watched him cry so quietly, and didn't say anything to comfort him, firstly, he could understand that kind of pressure needed a tear to vent, and secondly, he really wouldn't comfort a man, if Zhu Zhi'e cried like this, he would definitely make the other party feel hot with comfort.
The stove in the house was booming, Zhu Xianxuan was crying bitterly, Chang Yu got up with a cup and walked slowly to the window, pushed open the window, a cold wind hit him couldn't help but shiver, looking at the courtyard, Zhou Tianpeng took dozens of soldiers and the royal family to guard with knives, he raised his glass and shook his head, raised his head and did it, Zhou Tianpeng and others in the courtyard hugged his fists and saluted, silent.
"Where has Commander Wu gone, I haven't seen him for a long time" was blown by the cold wind, Zhu Xianxuan behind him stopped crying, looked up and suddenly asked.
Chang Yu turned around when he heard this, his face was stunned: "yes, why did you go to this thing?" “
