King Qin picked up his wine glass and said some words of thanks, which basically said that thanks to the great help of the peasant army, today's great victory could be achieved, and then everyone toasted together. [No pop-ups. 】

Since it was not the first time we had met, and we had just won a big victory, the atmosphere was very warm. Except for King Qin, everyone stood up and toasted, and everyone drank very happily.

After three rounds of drinking, the conversation slowly returned to the topic.

Zhang Yi stood up and bowed his hand to Gao Yingxiang and the other four: "King Chuang, the leader, please come today, first, to celebrate the victory, and more importantly, to discuss together, how to join forces in the future to resist the official army." At this point, I would like to hear King Chuang's opinion first. ”

Gao Yingxiang smiled slightly: "Mr. Zhang values me too much. I said that it was the king, but in fact, it was just a big banner and a tiger skin, bluffing. Without any foresight, where can you dare to get an axe? ”

Zhang Yi shook his hand and said, "King Chuang is too humble." At present, the most feared thing by the officials and soldiers is that you are the king of Gao Chuang, this is not me praising you, even Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng said so, is it still bad? If you have any ideas, please let us know, and we will make a decision. ”

Hearing him say this, Gao Yingxiang also stood up and arched his hand towards King Qin: "Since Mr. Zhang has to tell me, then I'll talk about it." ”

He came to the open space in the middle of the banquet and raised his voice: "This great victory is all due to the logistics supply of the Qin army. Without this, our righteous army would have been sitting on a million men and horses, and it would have collapsed in one day. Now that the battle has been won, Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng are like lost dogs, escaping hundreds of miles. Therefore, I think they will never dare to attack Xi'an again. My righteous army of 100,000 horses, sitting here to eat the mountains and empty mountains, no matter how much grain and rice there is in Xi'an, I can't afford to supply, so I decided that in a few days, I will pull out the camp and leave Shaanxi. ”

Zhang Yi said: "King Chuang is leaving Shaanxi, where is he going?" ”

Gao Yingxiang said: "A few days ago, I received an urgent report from Liu Guoneng and others who broke into the sky, saying that there are many officers and soldiers in Henan and want us to help, so I want to fight back to Henan and join forces with them to fight against the officials and soldiers." ”

Zhang Yi looked at Li Zicheng and the other three: "How many of them mean the same?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong first said: "Yes, Lao Liu is my friend, he is tight there, let's eat tight here, it's too unrighteous." So go back and help him. ”

Luo Rucai said: "There are many wealthy households in Henan, which is a good place for the development of our peasant army. ”

Li Zicheng didn't speak, this was arranged by a few of them in advance, and Li Zicheng didn't say anything first, as a buffer for the peasant army. Don't talk too hard just yet, you have to take a step back. Li Zicheng is the one who takes a step back.

After listening to the words of a few palms, Li Yan stood up and walked in front of Gao Yingxiang: "King Chuang, the peasant army is leaving now, in fact, it is not a good time." ”

Gao Yingxiang said: "What is Gongzi Li's opinion? ”

Li Yan cleared his throat: "The righteous army joined forces with our Qin army and indeed achieved a big victory, but we must also see that although the official army was defeated, the main force still existed, and although our army was victorious, the casualties were not small. But after a big battle, you must rest for a while before you can fight again. If you want to fight back to Henan, not to mention whether you can help them, just think about your own situation, which is not good. At present, Lu Xiangsheng is guarding the Bronze Pass, and there are at least 20,000 horses under his command, and if you want to enter Henan, you can't go south, because Lu Xiangsheng is there. So only to the east. The east is Tongguan, and there is Hong Chengchou in the north, 100,000 horses, once you leave Xi'an, there is no strong city as a barrier, it is all a field battle, and it is very unfavorable in the face of the official army. You must know that Cao Wenzhao and Zu Kuan's Guanning Iron Cavalry did not suffer much loss. If Tongguan can't be taken, Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng will kill them in the north and south, and they will encircle the righteous army under Tongguan. At that time, even if the Qin army went to reinforce it, it would not quench its thirst from afar. ”

These words are clear and reasonable, with clear layers and very convincing.

Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng and the others looked at each other a few times, and their hearts were full of joy, and they felt that Li Yan's words were very reasonable. Gao Yingxiang said: "Judging from Li Gongzi's words, we must not leave Guanzhong?" ”

Li Yan said: "For the sake of the safety of the righteous army, it's just not right now." ”

The dialogue between the two sides is a hidden needle. As soon as Gao Yingxiang and the others spoke, they proposed to leave, originally to bring the army of King Qin. So that the Qin army proposed to keep the peasant army. In this way, Gao Yingxiang can talk about the conditions. Even if the conditions are more ruthless, it is not too much. After all, the guests are leaving, and the host is forced to stay, so he has to put something out to entertain him. This is what the peasant army means.

But the Qin army didn't speak from this point at all, but kept saying that it was for the sake of the peasant army, Li Yan's words were very clear, as long as your peasant army left, he would be killed immediately. In order not to be killed by the officials and soldiers, it is better to condescend to the noble and stay in Guanzhong.

At the end of the day, you're still a guest, and I'm still a host. If you take my army, I will go back.

Gao Yingxiang didn't understand the reason, but he has never been very good at sophistry in terms of words, how can he be able to compete with Zhang Yi and Li Yan, two famous mouths.

At this time, Li Zicheng stood up and arched his hand to King Qin: "King Qin's kindness, how can we not know." However, since we want to fight back to Henan, it is also after discussion. will not clumsily drive all the horses to the city of Tongguan. Everyone is a brother, I tell the truth it doesn't matter, King Gao Chuang has already made a plan, when the time comes, he will contain Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng with two suspicious soldiers, and then attack Tongguan with a large team, I believe that it will be captured in a few days. By the time Lu Hong and the others found out, we had already entered Henan. Therefore, at this point, there is no need for Qin Jun to worry. If the King of Qin is gracious and funds some grain, grass and weapons, we will definitely open Tongguan and turn the Central Plains upside down. ”

Or Li Zicheng is powerful, these words Gao Yingxiang and the others have not discussed at all, but he Li Zicheng came up with them in a hurry. Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai couldn't help but applaud secretly.

At this time, he took the army of King Qin again. What Li Zicheng means is that we have a way to return to Henan, as long as we enter the Central Plains, we will definitely be like a fish in water, turn over and become the master. If you can be the master, who will stay with you? I'm sorry, since Qin Jun is the host here, and the guests are leaving, so naturally I want to give some greeting gifts. For example, send some grain, grass and weapons.

Hehe, King Qin thought to himself, this Li Zicheng is amazing, he won't eat this set at all.

At this time, Bai Qi also stood up and said, "It is not a good plan for the righteous army to enter the Central Plains. But it's not perfect, Bai Qi has a word, I don't know if several leaders want to hear it. ”

Gao Yingxiang hurriedly said: "General Bai Qi must have a high opinion, please speak." ”

Bai Qi's speed of speech was very slow, but with an unusually calm atmosphere: "The 100,000 horses of the righteous army, whether you go or stay, the key is not in our Qin army, nor in the Central Plains war situation, but in the situation in Guanzhong." If the situation in Guanzhong is favorable to the officers and soldiers, the rebels must leave. But if the situation in Guanzhong is favorable to the rebels, why do you want to leave? ”

Gao Yingxiang was stunned for a moment, feeling that this was a fresh argument, so he asked: "Then please ask General Bai to tell me about the current situation in Guanzhong, so that we can understand it." ”

Bai Qi said: "If you want to clarify the situation in Guanzhong, you must first figure out the intentions of the court. Before the war, the court transferred Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng, the two strongest men and horses, into Guanzhong, obviously to start a decisive battle with the Qin army and the righteous army. Annihilating us in Guanzhong and preventing us from entering the Central Plains is the fundamental intention of the imperial court. ”

Zhang Xianzhong shouted: "Okay, if we enter the Central Plains, we can defeat the wishful thinking of the official army?" ”

Bai Qi shook his head slightly: "That's not the case. In the art of war, it is said that if you take advantage of a hundred miles, you will step on the general. What's more, this place is nearly thousands of miles away from the Central Plains. If it is said that the officers and troops before the war wanted to rush to a decisive battle and eliminate us, then the current officers and troops are just waiting for the rabbit. They sit and wait for you to leave, and then attack Xi'an with all their might. The Qin army was less than 10,000 people, and if they wanted not to be wiped out, they must not be trapped in the lonely city, so they had to leave. Once the official army has recovered Xi'an, they will pursue you with all their might. Drive you into the Central Plains. At that time, the Central Plains became a big net, and all the elite men and horses of the official army were there. If you have no backup and no base, you will definitely lose. ”

Gao Yingxiang said: "Then what if we don't leave?" ”

Bai Qi said: "If you don't leave, then the situation in Guanzhong will be beneficial to us." We can divide the troops into several ways, the Qin army runs Xi'an, recruits troops and horses, you can attack the state and seize the county, and once you encounter a strong enemy of the official army, you can withdraw to the city of Xi'an. Secure and undefeated. It's a win-win situation, so why not? ”

Zhang Xianzhong laughed: "Let's go to attack the city and break the county, you enjoy happiness here, this deal is very shrewd." ”

Bai Qi sneered slightly: "Otherwise, you can change it." You enjoy happiness under the city of Xi'an, and I will lead the Qin army to attack the city and break the county. ”

Gao Yingxiang hurriedly said: "This is not necessary. However, there is a sentence that needs to be explained in advance. ”

Zhang Yi said: "King Chuang just talks. ”

Gao Yingxiang said: "It's okay for my righteous army to attack the city and break the county, but after the county seat is conquered, how much grain will the Qin army have?" ”

Zhang Yi looked at King Qin, then at Bai Qi Li Yan, and then said with a smile: "I, Qin Jun, don't want money and food." As long as the territory is with the people. ”

Hearing this, Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, and Luo Rucai were secretly overjoyed, originally they thought that they could get seven or eight achievements, but they didn't expect Qin Jun to be so generous, they didn't want their money and food.

Only Li Zicheng was calculating in his heart: The Qin army is so generous and attaches importance to territory, it seems that he really wants to restore his homeland. We lost men and horses, conquered the county seat, and took away the money and grain, but we didn't lose or earn, they didn't move a single soldier, but they got the territory. Make sure you don't lose money, and do a good job.

But this is unspeakable, because the peasant army has always not occupied territory, but only fought on a mobile basis.

Gao Yingxiang was afraid that King Qin would regret it, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "In that case, is it okay for everyone to high-five and swear?" ”

Bai Qi walked over: "Okay." ”

The two raised their palms and struck three times in a row, which was regarded as a vow.

When it was agreed, everyone rejoiced. Then everyone began to sit down and drink again, and drank until the lamp was almost gone.
