Chapter 483: Attacking Zhang Xianzhong

At the same time, in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan Province, although he had already ascended the throne and called the emperor, Zhang Xianzhong was called the emperor at the beginning, but he was just to see Li Zicheng's kid call the emperor first, he was angry, and he didn't want to be stepped on below, and at the same time, the godsons were also ambitious to make a prince to be the king, in fact, there were quite a few Confucian scholars who abandoned the Ming Dynasty that gave them benefits, and suggested that Zhang Xianzhong should not do this, but build a high city, accumulate grain, and slow down the king.

Of course, Zhang Xianzhong still has some little wisdom, at least he didn't, or he didn't have time to build the palace, he has always used the home of the King of Shu, of course, this is the plan to go back to Shaanxi, so that the villagers can see their prestige.

In all fairness, Zhang Xianzhong's rule in Sichuan cannot be said to be very good, but after his death, the people of Sichuan still resisted for more than ten years, which at least proves that his rule cannot be said to be bad, and the vitality of the people is still there.

In fact, he was directly in the Shu Palace, as his palace, as the "emperor", there was no atmosphere of the Son of Heaven ascending the throne at all, after entering the Shu Palace, all kinds of traces of war were not cleaned, and even some places still emitted the smell of corpses.

Although Zhang Xianzhong has occupied the essence of Sichuan for five or six years, and his relative strength has developed rapidly in recent years, but in the end, it is still because of the limitations of his thinking, and it is difficult to control a small civil servant who suddenly becomes a high-ranking official, so that many foundations have not been solidified, whether it is the territory or the financial situation, it can only be dominated by simple and crude eaters, and a tax collection group with Confucian scholars and local hooligans as the core has not been established, which is naturally difficult.

Moreover, the terrible news that kept coming from the north also made him grit his teeth and insist, expand the military war, and include most of the available young and strong people into the army, so that the recovery of local agriculture is also very slow, and he can only rely on some old and weak women and children to farm in the fields, although Zhang Xianzhong is definitely an understanding person, how can people who have been grassroots civil servants in the Ming Dynasty not know the dissatisfaction of the common people, but every time the news that the imperial capital has advanced weapons and equipment and a strong army, it is impossible for many parties to collude with the details that get a reward, Naturally, it caused him to expand his army in a new round, and now he is very unable to feed so many soldiers and horses.

Not to mention that in order to take Yunnan before, the tens of thousands of brave soldiers who were arrested by Zhuang Ding offended the people of Sichuan, although they got the wealth of the Muguo Mansion for hundreds of years, as well as the money of those Tusi, but they could not join the Jiangnan feast for the first time, after decades of war, the Musk Rebellion, although Sichuan has never fought those devastating wars in Shaanxi, but under the exploitation of several generations of Shu kings, the people's livelihood has long been withered, and the vitality is insufficient, whether it is the quality of potential soldiers or the supply of materials, Zhang Xianzhong's capital is too thin.

Zhang Xianzhong hurriedly called the emperor in Chengdu, on the surface of the persuasion of his subordinates, he was greedy, in fact, to put it bluntly, it was because he was gambling a breath, Li Zicheng entered Beijing to sit on the dragon chair, originally everyone was a fellow of the righteous army who started in Shaanxi, but people entered the Forbidden City of the emperor Lao'er, sat on the dragon chair in the Jinluan Palace, and slept with fragrant palace maids.

But later, under the great changes in the imperial capital, Zhang Xianzhong thought that those spies had been arrested and bribed, and after he was furious, the I spies sent back were sent back with even more sensational news.

The emperor has immortals.

The imperial capital has a large iron car.

The imperial capital built a new city.

It seems that the food in the imperial capital cannot be eaten, and the gold cannot be spent.

Even though Zhang Xianzhong has always been known for his cunning, but now he thinks that his luck is not good, the strength of the imperial capital has been incredible from the beginning, and the rumors of a spaceship that can fly have always been the reason for him to beat those spies.

Fortunately, under the experience of this person in the previous decades, the cunning nature that he has exercised is not enough to be defeated by flattery in a few years, and he himself knows very well that he, the so-called Emperor of the Great West, has a lot of water, and in terms of strength, he is not the opponent of the imperial capital at all, and there is currently room for him to develop in China. Except for the southeast and southwest, there was little room for his expansion.

But how can the southeast be so easy to fight?

Although a few poor Xiucai who can't pass the exam, don't brag shamelessly that he is a generation of benevolent masters, and even have such remarks: "The saint is incomparable in benevolence and righteousness, and the unification of the world is just around the corner, at this time, the demon in the imperial capital rules the north with demon law, just like Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms, and the people in the south of the Yangtze River are a group of dragons without a leader, and there are many infighting, which is also similar to the Wu State, and the saint's surname is Zhang, which can be said to be the Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdoms, Zhang Fei ......"

Zhang Xianzhong was amused and funny, these guys have no other skills, and they don't have any ability to stabilize the country and govern the world, but their ability to slap horses and intrigue is against the sky.

Of course, under his expectations, ascending the throne and becoming the emperor is just a capital to raise the price, and discussed with his generals and godsons, and decided to perfunctory with the imperial capital.

But what made him very unhappy was that no matter how he communicated with the imperial capital, they had no interest in the emperor's system, and asked him to give up power, stop all military operations, and wait to be reorganized.

Believe in your grandmother's legs.

There is not harmony between the Shaanxi rebels, and the annexation of fire is simply commonplace, Zhang Xianzhong is now rich and girly, what are you afraid of.

However, these attitudes of the Presbyterian Church still alerted Zhang Xianzhong, if it was in Shaanxi, it would almost be possible to reach a reason for the fire merger, in fact, it could be regarded as a declaration of war.

In Zhang Xianzhong's opinion, his name as the Emperor of the Great West is not right, you elders who don't know where they came from, who are engaged in Shintoism, don't even have an emperor, what elders, republic, it's just a laugh.

Everyone is not right, why didn't he, the Emperor of the Great West, directly reorganize these elders.

Therefore, after Zhang Xianzhong met with Li Dingguo, who went to negotiate, he figured out the uncompromising position of the Council of Elders, and immediately became angry, took the case, pointed to the northeast and scolded these elders for not being a thing, not at all, you are at most some warlocks on the rivers and lakes, and now that you are sitting big, you began to give orders to him, and he Zhang Xianzhong couldn't swallow this breath no matter what.

So Zhang Xianzhong retaliated with a tooth for a tooth, and also issued an edict with a lot of intentions, and made a lot of promises, saying that Li Zicheng was held hostage in the emperor's capital, and he couldn't help himself, everyone is from Shaanxi, and if his own people don't beat him, it is better to take refuge in me...... And he Zhang Xianzhong is the real son of the dragon, the evidence is the various stone tablets and bronze pillars he dug up all over Sichuan, and these elders are not bullshit, they dare not call the emperor is the evidence, as long as they listen to him Zhang Xianzhong, the benefits are great, and the king is also very simple.

Zhang Xianzhong's appeasement of Li Zicheng's people who stayed in Shaanxi naturally had no effect, and they understood very well that if they took refuge in you, it was not a benefit to be taken away, and they were put at the forefront to deal with the army in the imperial capital?

After a few encounters, Zhang Xianzhong also knew the bottom line, it was okay for him to send a small force to harass him, but if he really went north, he would not be comfortable.

For a while, he was trapped and died in Sichuan, but a skirmish with Yunnan Tusi, after a fight in Chongqing, he suddenly found that compared to Shaanxi, which is hard stubble at first glance, there are many good bullies in the south, and Jiangnan, Jiangnan Duomei and rich people, really fight over, open a random big city, those legendary Hangzhou and Suzhou, may be more terrible than the wealth in the whole Chengdu.

Of course, he is still self-aware, and he does have a bit of a taste of the Three Kingdoms Struggle for Hegemony at present, but no matter how you look at the imperial capital, it is too strong, not to mention anything else, the weapons he secretly purchased in the imperial capital are better than those produced in Chengdu, and even he understands that the people in the imperial capital know that they are spending money to purchase these swords!

And once he goes south, maybe the imperial capital will wait for this day, first cut off his troops from the Yangtze River, and can not echo before and after, and then directly attack Sichuan from Shaanxi, how can he resist?

Seeing that Jiangnan's fat couldn't be eaten, fortunately, he met Zuo Menggeng, the ultimate loser, but he caught an opportunity, but he was quickly crushed. In the past few years, not only the Ming official army has become weaker and weaker, the strength is declining, and the equipment is insufficient, Jiangnan Confucian students are obviously not interested in expanding military warfare, and they are very strong in corruption, but in the end, the godson Li Dingguo still failed to attack Nanjing City, and it is said that the people of the imperial capital intervened, and now they are trapped in the small city of Jiangyin, and it is difficult to advance an inch.

Emperor Zhang Xianzhong of Daxi is very clear, what kind of situation his Daxi is facing at the moment, Li Guo, a tiger on the other side of Shaanxi, is very satisfied with his current situation, the elders are still very good for this person who died in the battle against the Manchu Qing in history, at present, the north is in the process of resuming production, and Li Guo is eyeing Sichuan, and has also added a lot of new weapons in the imperial capital, although it is not directly integrated like Mrs. Xing, but it has also been under the banner of China, and the military salary is also issued by the people of the imperial capital. When the military salary was issued, they also shouted that it was the concern of the adults in the imperial capital.

Zhang Xianzhong can despise the officials and troops in Jiangnan and discriminate against the Tusi in Yunnan, but he is not so arrogant to the Shun army, who was also born in the Shaanxi Righteous Army and squeezed himself into Sichuan. And in the past five years, the army under his command has also begun to grow old, on the one hand, life in Sichuan has made them comfortable, on the other hand, they have fought for too long and gradually lost their combat effectiveness. And if you want food or not, you have to pay without pay, although you have purchased weapons from the imperial capital, but those things have been transported to Sichuan for thousands of miles, and the cost is extremely amazing, and it just so happened that Li Dingguo's return made him understand that the enemy can easily go against the current, that is to say, he is surrounded on both sides of the imperial capital.

No matter how he thought about it, it was a dead end, so he calculated that he still had to fight to enhance his strength.

It's like Meituan and Nuomi fought hard and killed Master Kong, the game between the imperial capital and Zhang Xianzhong made Zhang Xianzhong grit his teeth and put all the capital in Yunnan, this problem is an arithmetic problem, after comparing the strength of both of them, it is easy to make the right choice, that is, to annex others.

So Sun Kewang's quick victory made him overjoyed, and another good news, a large number of troops in the imperial capital began to load ships south, of course, it was not that he was afraid to directly defeat the south of the Yangtze River, but to go to the far South Seas, and finally got the news that it was actually some red-haired people in the South Seas who killed some lowly Han merchants, so they went to uphold justice.

Zhang Xianzhong has always felt that there is something wrong with these people in the imperial capital, and now it is true.

So Sun Kewang's army, after it can be said that it destroyed the Tusi in Yunnan without much effort, urgently returned to Chongqing, preparing to eat their own benefits on the fat meat in the south of the Yangtze River.

For this kind of thing, Zhang Xianzhong still understands very well, the people of Sichuan don't like him, but he doesn't have a good impression of the imperial capital army that the Shun army has become, he just needs to be deterred, at the moment his main energy should be focused on going down the river and laying down the cause of Jiangnan, and as a step to gain the world by himself, according to his script, the imperial capital stupidly fell hundreds of thousands of troops into the smoke miasma in the south, and he couldn't come back in a few years, and during this period, he laid down Jiangnan, and he could take advantage of the fact that some people in the presbyterian church wanted to go. After the outbreak of the civil war, let him make a profit, fight the past and become the emperor, and retire to protect himself.

Therefore, Zhang Xianzhong still spent a lot of energy to contact the possible collusion people in Jiangnan, and also encouraged Li Dingguo to cooperate with him at any time, as for the kings of the Ming Dynasty, he was even more pleasantly surprised to find that these kings began to woo themselves in order to compete for the throne with each other, although he was the emperor, but Zhang Xianzhong was not so hypocritical, and he would be on it if he had benefits!

The Council of Elders in the Imperial Capital didn't pay much attention, as long as the civil war of these guys didn't harm too many people, so that they could take the opportunity to immigrate to Nanyang in large numbers, they could turn a blind eye and put all their energy on the matter of quickly pacifying Batavia.

Zhang Xianzhong is really nourishing, now that he has a son at home, and he has the gold and silver of Sun Kewang's filial piety, it can be said that he is full of spirit, and he has the plan to conquer Jiangnan in person.

Most of the Chinese people in the DPRK thought that Zhang Xianzhong was now the lord of the dynasty, his identity was no longer the usual, and his identity was no longer suitable for personally leading the army, and it was better to choose a general as the commander to lead the army.

But this kind of persuasion has no effect on Zhang Xianzhong, as he gets older, a few godsons are not easy to suppress, he always has to have all kinds of meritorious deeds, win the heart of the army, and have prestige to be deterred, and he has no interest in winning the hearts of the people, but he knows too well how to please Qiu Bamen.
