Chongzhen nine years, this year for Chongzhen, is a year of worry, first of all, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, after the founding of the country, the Manchus actively prepared for war, ready to take the only two cities outside the Guan, Jinzhou and Ningyuan. 【Latest chapter reading. At this time, the commander of the official army outside the pass was Zu Dashou, although he was a famous general, but in the face of the superior enemy, no one could hold these two cities.

In addition, Wu Sangui guards Shanhaiguan, this young general is brave in battle, and he is familiar with the art of war, and he is even more familiar with the tactics of the Manchurians.

Compared with the outside of the Guan, Chongzhen is more worried about the interior of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Zicheng is still besieging Kaifeng, and Sun Chuanting has already led his men and horses to the outside of Kaifeng, and is stabilizing the front and preparing for a decisive battle with it. The success or failure of the Central Plains is in one fell swoop.

Fan Ju has already invaded Shandong, and the 200,000 men and horses of the 5th Battalion of the Left Wing are fierce and unstoppable. It's a real headache. Chongzhen only hated himself, why didn't he get rid of Fan Ju earlier. At this time, there was no one to distinguish, so I could only watch him make a fuss in Shandong.

And the Qin army in Guanzhong also recently occupied Hanzhong, which was another major blow to Chongzhen. The Hanzhong Plain has always been an important grain-producing area in the northwest, and being taken away by the Qin army at this time is tantamount to adding wings to the tiger. Moreover, after the Qin army took Hanzhong, it could directly look at Sichuan, and if Sichuan fell into the hands of the Qin army again, then the Qin army would have half of the northwest and southwest of the country, and it would be difficult to clean up at that time.

Chongzhen knows that the most important thing at the moment is to win the battle of Kaifeng, as long as Li Zicheng can be destroyed, Sun Chuanting can free up his hands and eliminate the anti-thieves in various places one by one.

Therefore, Chongzhen also fought hard, he had ordered Zuo Liangyu to lead the army into Henan a few days ago, and was controlled by Sun Chuanting to go to Kaifeng to participate in the battle.

As for Zhang Xianzhong's department, at this time, Zuo Liangyu beat only a few thousand people, and he couldn't make too much trouble for a while and a half, so he could let it go first, and let Zuo Liangyu divide a partial division to pursue Zhang Xianzhong, and most of the rest of the men and horses followed Zuo Liangyu to kill Kaifeng.

Chongzhen was anxious, he transferred almost all the few strong teams in the hands of the court to Kaifeng, except for Hong Chengchou, almost all the generals who could fight were there.

He stood outside the Qinzheng Palace, looking at the direction of Kaifeng, Henan Province from afar, his heart was like a wave surging, and he couldn't calm down for a moment.

At the same time, thousands of miles away in the city of Xi'an, the King of Qin was also thinking hard about the development plan of the Qin army.

At present, although the development of the Qin army is very stable, Guanzhong and Hanzhong have been captured, and Gansu in the rear has also been pacified, the Qin army is still facing a great crisis.

Where to develop next will be related to the life and death of the Qin army, and it should not be careless.

At present, among the important ministers of the Qin army, Wang Jian and Bai Qi are both military generals, who can only fight wars and cannot govern the country. Zhang Yi is a diplomatic wizard, and he is not good at formulating national plans. Li Yan is still young, and it is impossible for him to come up with such an amazing strategy, the King of Qin himself has this ability, but he has been asleep for two thousand years, and he does not know much about the current world and people's hearts, so he is not very sure.

That night, King Qin tossed and turned, and Ji Mengdie found out, so she asked: "King, if you have any troubles, you can talk to your concubines." ”

King Qin stroked her little hand: "Zitong, there is indeed something difficult about Lonely. Tonight, the moon is white and the wind is clear, how about accompanying the orphan to take a walk in the garden,"

Ji Mengdie was very happy: "Okay, good, the concubine is waiting for the king to dress." ”

The two got dressed and got up, went out of the house, and walked side by side into the garden. At this time, it was the end of April, the night was still very cool, the moonlight of white flowers sprinkled on the ground, the garden wafted with the fragrance of unknown flowers, the grass insects were chirping softly, and the frogs in the lotus pond also responded to a few sounds from time to time, and it seemed that the world was silent.

In troubled times, it is a kind of happiness to have a beautiful day and a beautiful woman by your side.

They came to the garden, walking between the flower paths, Ji Mengdie leaned her head on the shoulder of King Qin, and was about to say something, when her eyes waved, but she found that there was actually a person sitting in the pavilion in the garden.

Ji Mengdie's eyes were cold, and she held the short knife under her waist, when she was with King Qin, no matter day or night, she would never leave the knife, this was to protect King Qin.

At this time, King Qin also saw this person, and his eyes were also dark, but he immediately saw that this was a woman.

Ji Mengdie also saw it, and after taking two more steps, she couldn't help but smile and relaxed the knife.

Sitting in the gazebo was the big jade.

Since she arrived in Xi'an, for her safety, King Qin has always placed her in his own mansion, specially prepared a courtyard for her to live in, and in order to avoid suspicion, he has never visited her. I don't want her to be here tonight.

At this time, Da Yu'er also saw King Qin and Ji Mengdie, and hurriedly stood up and made a blessing to King Qin. This kind of etiquette was learned by her with the Han girls around her after she came to Xi'an.

King Qin waved his hand: "Why didn't you rest,"

Da Yu'er smiled: "I can't sleep, I have some worries, so I came here for a walk, I didn't expect the king to come too, do you also have something on your mind?"

King Qin said: "Not bad. ”

As he spoke, he came to the pavilion and sat down with Ji Mengdie.

Da Yu'er greeted Ji Mengdie for a few words, and suddenly changed her words and said to King Qin: "I guessed a few points about the king's heart. ”

Ji Mengdie smiled: "I can't even guess, you can guess,"

Da Yu'er nodded: "Naturally, what the king is worried about must be a military event." ”

Ji Mengdie scolded with a smile: "That's it, I can also guess what kind of person the king is, can other things make him upset, right, the king,"

King Qin remained silent, still with a calm face: "Military affairs happen every day, it's nothing." Miss Yu'er, it's cold every night, you better go and rest. ”

Da Yu'er is a Mongolian, not as docile as a Han girl, and sneered: "People can't sleep when they go back, I don't want to leave......"

Ji Mengdie made a round: "It's okay if you don't go, let's talk about our hearts together, Sister Yu'er, I haven't been going out with you recently, you must be lonely." ”

Da Yu'er grinned: "Good girl, I won't be lonely, these days, I have inquired about your Qin army, from beginning to end, I have heard about it." ”

Ji Mengdie was stunned: "You don't have anything to ask about this," Da Yu'er smiled: "Idle is idle, but this inquiry, I admire you Qin Jun more and more." ”

King Qin glanced at her: "Really,"

Da Yu'er nodded: "Naturally, it's true." The king is Qin Shi Huang 2,000 years ago, and this alone is enough to make people excited and unbearable. What's more, there are also Bai Qi, Wang Jian and Zhang Yi, all of whom are famous figures. I heard that when the king started to raise troops, there were only a few thousand people, but within a few years, he conquered the whole of Shaanxi and restored the former Qin State, which is so powerful......"

Ji Mengdie stared at King Qin with infinite reverence and admiration.

King Qin was very calm, and after listening to her words, he didn't say anything, but said lightly: "This is all the soldier's life, God bless." ”

Da Yu'er could hear that King Qin was perfunctory to make her lose her interest, and then leave. couldn't help but smile secretly, and the words suddenly changed: "But the Qin army has restored its homeland, but it is facing greater difficulties. ”

These words really made King Qin stunned: "What are you talking about,"

Da Yu'er's tone began to calm down: "The Qin people have occupied Shaanxi, and on the surface, it seems that they can attack Sichuan to the south and Henan to the east, and they can make great achievements, but there are also many difficulties. ”

King Qin paid attention to it: "Why do you want to think about these things,"

Da Yu'er smiled: "Because I like Qin Jun, I naturally have to think about it for Qin Jun......"

King Qin said: "Then you can tell me what the Qin army should do,"

Da Yu'er shook her head slightly: "I don't know either." ”

Ji Mengdie was angry, picked a flower and threw it over: "You broken mouth." I don't know, but it's so lively. ”

King Qin waved his hand: "Then what do you know?"

Da Yu'er thought for a while: "Is there a general trend in the world, I don't understand, I only know some people, I just know their style." Ji Mengdie smiled: "What's the use of knowing some people,"

King Qin shook his hand and said, "Don't talk like that, it's good to be able to recognize people." Tell me what kind of people you know."

Da Yu'er cleared her throat at this time: "Since I came to Xi'an, I have asked about various things from many people's mouths, and I have some opinions on several current figures, and I don't know if I am right or not." ”

King Qin said: "Right or wrong, just say it, it's nothing if it's wrong, and this is not a court." ”

Da Yu'er smiled: "Okay, then I'll tell the king, it's a pity that there is no wine here, otherwise let's have a cooking about heroes." ”

King Qin said: "Although there is no wine, there are flowers and moons, less pride, and more elegant ......"

Ji Mengdie said: "No, no, no, since it's about heroes, how can you do it without wine, you two wait a while, I'll go and scald the wine......" After speaking, she stood up and ran away.

King Qin and Da Yu'er glanced at each other, and they both smiled slightly.

Sure enough, after a while, Ji Mengdie came back again, and brought two maids, one holding the stove and the other holding the wine bottle, Ji Mengdie herself held three wine glasses, and put them on the stone platform in the pavilion: "That's it......"

So the two maids lit a fire and cooked wine, and in the small pavilion, the fragrance of wine overflowed in a short time.

Ji Mengdie heard the storyteller talk about the Three Kingdoms, looked around, and actually sighed: "There are just no plums in the garden, otherwise it can really be compared with Cao Mengde......"

In a short time the wine was boiled, and the maid filled three cups and brought them to everyone. The hot wine steamed the cheeks of the two women, and it looked even more beautiful and pretty in the moonlight.
