Chapter 425: The arrogant middle two youth
Li Zicheng rushed to Tongguan the next morning.
Strategically, he may not be as sharp as Liu Zongmin, but in terms of the general trend, Li Zicheng's vision and foresight are much higher than Liu Zongmin's, which is also a necessary quality of a leader.
At this time, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Wandering People's Army marched eastward into Shanxi, which seemed to be a huge momentum, but to put it bluntly, this is just a temptation, the vast majority of people are cannon fodder, take advantage of it if it is cheap, and leave if it is not cheap.
But Tongguan is definitely different!
Once there is a problem in Tongguan, then, the world-famous model army will be able to directly plunder into the hinterland of Qinchuan!
Li Zicheng pinned his head to the waistband of his trousers, he had been dead for so many years, he was blind, and his wife ran away several times, for what?
How could something happen to the foundation that had just been established!
However, the model army has a big battle on its side, but it has not taken the initiative to attack, which really makes Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin a little puzzled.
It wasn't until two days later, when the main force of the eastward exile army had broken through several county towns and hit Pingyang Mansion, that they learned that the imperial court was going to send a prison army to Xu Changqing's department.
"Hey, great, great, wow. It's the first time I've liked the dog court so much, and I've helped us so much! Hehe, just let them eat dogs, with these prison guards, Xu Changqing was originally very strong, and at most he made six or seven good achievements. β
In the Tongguan official hall, Li Shuangxi, whose injuries were almost healed, almost jumped up and danced after hearing this.
"Silence!"
"Don't look at what kind of occasion it is? In front of the emperor, you dare to mess around like this? β
Li Guo's injuries were almost healed, and he was busy scolding coldly.
"Well, it's ......"
Li Shuangxi realized that their emperor Li Zicheng was still there, and hurriedly put away his excitement, as well-behaved as a kitten.
Li Zicheng smiled and said: "It's okay, it's not in the court at this time, but in the army, and there are not too many rules." β
As he spoke, he glanced at the generals around him: "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of this?" β
Since the establishment of Xijing, Li Zicheng's city government has become a lot deeper, he has no heirs at this time, and he has not really established an heir, but openly and secretly, he has this meaning, and he wants to push Li Guo out.
It is also a great promotion of Li Shuangxi and Li Laiheng, who are extremely impactful young players.
Song Xiance said: "Double Happiness is right. The successive defeats of the Ming court over the years have a lot to do with its cumbersome system. Xu Changqing is now even called a national thief, hehe, this is not something that ordinary people can bear. Emperor, the minister thinks that our righteous army can have a ninety percent chance of winning in this battle, as long as it fights steadily and steadily! β
Niu Jinxing also hurriedly mended the knife and said: "Emperor, the sage said, the time and place are favorable." At this time, the time and place are favorable, all in my Dashun, all in my righteous army, Xu Changqing has the ability to soar to the sky, and this battle will also be hated under my Tongguan. β
Others also echoed it, and the atmosphere in the venue was relaxed and freehand.
Even Li Zicheng couldn't help but relax, but he soon saw that Liu Zongmin's brows were furrowed, and he didn't speak, so he couldn't help but say, "Ru Hou, what do you think?" β
Liu Zongmin took a deep breath: "Emperor, what everyone said is not bad. However, Xu Changqing is really ruthless, and it is very likely that he will not be subordinate! I'm afraid it's hard to have any impact on him, so we have to be more careful. β
β¦β¦
On August 27, the sixteenth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, it was appropriate to marry and break ground.
Three or four days later than Xu Changqing expected, the imperial court supervisor finally arrived.
At this time, the main force of the northern front of the Liumin Army had conquered Pingyang Mansion and went all the way to the north, approaching Taiyuan, a thousand-year-old city.
The prison army who came over this time was none other than Xu Changqing's old acquaintance, Zhang Ruoqi, the supervisor of Songjin!
The three scholars who came with Zhang Ruoqi, one is from Hejian, called Zhang Qingchuan, two are from Jiangnan, one is surnamed Zhou, called Zhou Kunpeng, is the son of a wealthy merchant in Huzhou, the ancestors of several generations of Jinshi, with a profound heritage, and the other is from Yangzhou, which is one of the four sons of the famous Fushe, Mao Xiang, Mao Xiang, Mao Kaijiang!
As Xu Changqing expected, for the quota of the prison army and the soldiers, several battles were set off in the capital.
Originally, it was not Zhang Ruoqi's turn, but the factions were in dispute, and the others were inexperienced, so Zhang Ruoqi picked up a bargain.
Mao Bijiang is similar, it just so happened that he had something to do in the capital, and with his name, he picked up this 'cheap'.
As for Zhang Qingchuan and Zhou Kunpeng, both of them were family members and division leaders who made great efforts to push them up, so these two hot-blooded young people who were both in the second secondary school were gearing up to fight Xu Changqing.
"Master Zhang, I haven't seen you for many years, and your style is even more prosperous in the past."
By the Yellow River, in the model army camp, Xu Changqing also gave these supervisors enough face, and set up a huge guard of honor, with thousands of people to welcome Zhang Ruoqi and his party.
Zhang Ruoqi has not been too ambitious in the past few years, and the edges and corners have been smoothed out a lot, more restrained and calm, and he is busy and respectfully bowing his hand and smiling: "Uncle, you are more prosperous in the past." It is really an honor for the lower official to be able to work with the uncle again. β
After meeting Zhang Ruoqi, Xu Changqing walked over with a smile, and was just about to greet Zhang Qingchuan and the three of them, Zhang Qingchuan, who had been accumulating for a long time, suddenly sneered, strode forward, looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and said loudly: "Uncle Zhongyi, are you guilty?" β
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar.
In an instant, the whole world fell into a frozen silence.
There were countless straight men on both sides, and their hands were touching the hilt of the knife.
"Jietang, don't talk nonsense, don't hurry up and excuse your uncle!"
Zhang Ruoqi had long known that this trip would not be peaceful, but who would have thought that Zhang Qingchuan, who was so stunned, was so ignorant and ignorant, and he dared to blatantly scold Xu Changqing so blatantly when they first met, and hurriedly dragged his eyes to make him admit his mistake quickly.
Zhang Qingchuan didn't know Xu Changqing's foundation and methods, how could he Zhang Ruoqi not know?
"Huh."
Zhang Qingchuan sneered, glanced at Zhang Ruoqi contemptuously, and then stared at Xu Changqing like a wolf and a tiger, and said righteously: "Xu Changqing, after you are a noble of the Ming Dynasty, you have been favored by the emperor, but you are outside Tongguan, and you have been stationed for almost a month, allowing the main force of thieves to attack the hinterland of Shanxi, and the lives are miserable, and the people are not happy, but there is no action!" What are your intentions? Dare to say that you are not guilty! β
Zhang Qingchuan's legs and stomach were actually a little weak at this time, especially the wolf-like eyes of the children around him, who almost wanted to swallow him alive.
But underneath this tension is the excitement that cannot be expressed in words.
In front of him, he is loyal and righteous Uncle Xu Changqing, and besides, in front of so many people...... Presumably, as long as you can resist it, the news will be able to reach the capital at night, right?
As soon as he thought of his demeanor, he would soon circulate in the capital, be admired by countless people, and then become the leader of Shilin, Zhang Qingchuan only felt that he had already put life and death aside, and was the pillar of the country, the pillar of the court, and the hero of the nation!
Seeing that Zhang Qingchuan was so majestic, Zhou Kunpeng, who was also a young man in the second middle school, couldn't sit still, and hurriedly came out and said coldly: "Xu Changqing, I not only want to come over to supervise the army, but also to punish you!" Your Xu family, the world is favored by my Ming Emperor, and you are full of loyalty, but when you come here, what do you want to do? Do you know that it is because of your self-respect that the situation continues to collapse and hundreds of people are displaced, what crime should you be guilty of?! β
"Shut up, don't stop yet!"
Zhang Ruoqi couldn't hold back any longer, and was about to start pumping these two young people who didn't know whether they were alive or dead, but after thinking about it, he didn't seem to be able to beat these two young men, so he looked at Xu Changqing and showed his attitude with a sad face: "Uncle, it's a crime, this is really a crime......"
"Huh."
Xu Changqing was not angry, but was amused by these two living treasures, but he didn't pay attention to it for a while, and instead looked at Mao Bijiang, whose face was a little red, and said with a smile: "Brother Mao, they all spray me like this Xu Changqing, as a senior, don't you set an example?" β
"This ......"
Mao Bijiang was speechless for a moment.
Unlike Zhang Qingchuan and Zhou Kunpeng, who are in their early twenties, Mao Bijiang has long passed the age of establishment, and he is in his thirties.
Moreover, he was arrested to be a supervisor this time, which was completely an accident within an accident, thinking of the delicate Dong Xiaowan who was still waiting for him in his hometown in Taizhou, and thinking of the infamy of countless Xu Changqing circulating among the people.
After a while, the busy humble bow bowed down and lowered his head: "Uncle, you, you are laughing...... Students, although the students were young and frivolous and did a lot of foolish things, over the years, the students have also figured out a lot...... Uncle, since you don't send troops at this time, I am sure, there must be your reasons......"
"Haha, hahahahahaha......"
Xu Changqing laughed: "It's a pity, it's a pity!" β
"Brother Mao, you, why have you betrayed? Let's say okay, let's go to Huangquan together! β
Zhang Qingchuan's eyes were suddenly split, and he couldn't wait to eat the flesh and blood of the frontier raw.
"Brother Mao, do you still have any backbone? Are you still not a protΓ©gΓ© of a saint? I didn't expect you to be such a useless mess, which is really a shame for our readers! β
Zhou Kunpeng also scolded on the side.
Mao Bijiang moved his lips, but he ignored them and bowed to Xu Changqing even more humbly.
Wang Chengen was busy with mud at this time: "Changqing, you, don't be like these two young people, they are still too young......"
As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Qingchuan and the two of them with a busy and fierce look: "You two, what are you still doing stupidly?" Don't apologize to your uncle yet! β
"Humph!"
Zhang Qingchuan and Zhou Kunpeng only looked at the clothes, they knew Wang Chengen's identity, but they ignored it and continued to raise their necks proudly.
Just eunuchs, even if they are close ministers of the Son of Heaven, don't want them to bow their heads!
How many fucking years has the eunuch been dead.
"You, you ......"
The arrogant appearance of the two instantly stung Wang Chengen's sensitive self-esteem.
What are eunuchs most afraid of?
I'm afraid of other people's strange eyes!
But at this time, the two young men didn't hide it at all, and they looked down on him Wang Chengen from the bottom of their bones.
"Prince, you dissipate your anger first."
Seeing that Wang Chengen was about to faint, Xu Changqing and Wang Pu hurriedly supported Wang Chengen carefully.
Wang Chengen's face turned pale, but he was speechless with anger, and he trembled.
gave Wang Pu a look and asked Wang Pu to take care of Wang Chengen, Xu Changqing came to the two middle two young people with a smile: "You two, today, are you going to talk to me Xu Changqing?" β
"Humph!"
Zhang Qingchuan sneered: "Xu Changqing, you don't want to scare us!" You know what the hell is in your own heart! Sooner or later, one day, you will be nailed to the pillar of shame and become a sinner of my Ming Dynasty and be judged by history! β
Zhou Kunpeng also sneered and mended the knife and said: "Xu Changqing, if you are really a man, you will use your strength on the battlefield, now, what kind of ability is it to be fierce with us?" β
