Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Celebration Banquet

Chapter 81: The Celebration Banquet

Breaking into the camp in one breath, the Qin army was chased from Ruzhou to Mengjin.

This big victory, even the unprecedented victory in the history of the camp, the previous victory of Persimmon Garden, is not enough to compare with this big victory, the last time Sun Chuanting was also in a hurry, and it was only a few months to take over, but this time he had to face the main force of the Qin army that Sun Chuanting had nearly a year of experience.

Such a great victory is not to celebrate.

Therefore, they broke into the camp and rejoiced.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Li Zicheng was a little drunk and said: "In today's battle, the first merit is Prime Minister Niu." How did we win, in the end, Sun Chuanting ran out of food, but we still have it, this is the first merit of this battle. ”

Niu Jinxing's face was full of light, he was excited, and said: "Your Majesty is worried about the small merit. ”

"Come on, old cow." Li Zicheng said: "I salute you with a bowl of wine." ”

Niu Jinxing didn't dare to refuse, and hurriedly took it and drank it all.

Li Xin didn't like it.

In this war, food is of course an important factor, but ensuring food is not Niu Jinxing's business alone, the food problem, in fact, is still the grain in Xiangyang, which effectively supplies the logistics of the army. From the winter of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, it was decided to base the decision on the victory of Xiangyang. Where is the credit of Niu Venus alone.

However, Niu Jinxing, as the head of the Wenchen beside Li Zicheng, is not bad to say that it is his credit.

"The second merit is Li Junshi." Li Zicheng walked over from Niu Jinxing, poured another bowl of wine, and said to Li Xin: "This battle is under the planning of the military division step by step, and Sun Chuanting is also an old fox, but he still entered the clip of the military division. This second merit is the military division's, the military division, please. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Xin took the wine bowl and drank it all, with a feeling of being in charge.

After Li Xin finished drinking, he said: "Everyone, listen to me, I Li has self-knowledge, how many years has Sun Baigu been in the army, more victories and fewer defeats, is it comparable to my hairy boy, this battle, it is not that I have defeated Sun Baigu, but Your Majesty is better than Chongzhen Xiaoer, Chongzhen Xiaoer is like Sun Baigu, Lu Xiangsheng's minister can not be used, Your Majesty only has one minister, but can make the best use of it, this is the reason for the victory of this battle." ”

"Yes." Liu Zongmin was already half-drunk, almost jumped on the table, and said: "The eldest brother is younger than Chongzhen, better than I don't know much, this emperor should be the eldest brother to sit, tomorrow we will enter the Beijing Division, let the eldest brother sit in the Jinluan Palace." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." For a while, there were not a few generals like Liu Zongmin who were drunk and crazy.

Li Zicheng is a little ridiculous, he has already ascended the throne in Xiangyang, and he is already the emperor, but the people below call him His Majesty, but in fact, they all feel that if he doesn't take Beijing, this emperor is just the king of grass.

Li Zicheng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but it was fleeting, and he said: "Lao Liu, this third skill is yours, you are unprepared to attack Sun Chuanting's grain road, it is the third skill, I will not respect you, you drink it yourself." ”

"Okay." Liu Zongmin said loudly. Then he picked up a wine jar and drank most of the jar of wine.

The officers below applauded. For a while, the atmosphere was very noisy.

Li Zicheng also knows that this group of drunkards is like this. After getting drunk, he didn't even know who the Jade Emperor was. Li Zicheng didn't want to persuade him much, but after he became the emperor, he also respected his identity and didn't mess with them like this.

was about to retire, but saw Zhang Nai come over and handed a secret letter to Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng hurriedly looked at it, and his eyes instantly locked. He whispered to Zhang Nai: "Go and call Mr. Niu, Li Junshi, and General Gu over, remember to be quiet." ”

"Yes." Zhang Nai said.

But in a moment, Zhang Nai called the three of them over alone.

Li Zicheng sat on the Taishi chair at this moment, rubbed the blind eye with his hand, handed the letter to him and said, "Look, this Cao Cao is really not a fuel-efficient lamp. What are we going to do? ”

The content of the letter is not long, it is just a conclusion, that is, Cao Cao has broken Huang and entered Fengyang City. As for the details, it will take a while to come over. However, even this news made Li Zicheng feel uncomfortable.

The content is not long, and these people read it quickly.

Li Xinxin secretly said: "Cao Ying's momentum has been achieved, and now it cannot be replicated. ”

The current situation is obvious, the Qin army is defeated, and it is definitely not a problem to break into the camp and chase after the defeated army of Sun Chuanting to sweep through the three Qins. And at this moment, if the troops are to the east, even if they pull Cao Ying's hind legs, but with Sun Chuanting's ability, as long as there is a month or two, it will not be easy to attack Qin again.

Obviously, Li Zicheng has no other choice.

Li Xin couldn't help but hide a trace of worry.

"Your Majesty." Niu Jinxing said: "In this battle, we collected tens of thousands of Qin troops, which are all army trained by Sun Chuanting, just a little rectification, it can be used by me, after laying down Qindi, collect the soldiers of Qindi, not to mention millions of people, with the Qin army going east, who can be the enemy in the world, Jiangnan soldiers are too many soldiers, even if Cao Cao occupies Jiangnan, it is only temporarily placed in Cao Cao's hands, he will go south from Xiangyang one day, and take it." Your Majesty, why should you worry? ”

"Your Majesty, the Qin army is at a time when people's hearts are panicking. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it must not be lost. Gu Junen said: "And many people in the army are waiting to return to their hometowns. It's not good to get the crowd off at the moment. ”

Li Zicheng sighed secretly in his heart, he also did this

Know.

Most of these people who followed Li Zicheng to raise troops were from Shaanxi, and now Shaanxi is far away, almost within reach. How can they not be angry in their hearts and return to their hometown, even Li Zicheng himself will inevitably have this thought, he has been away from his hometown for a long, long time.

I don't know if the scenery of Mizhi has changed.

"It's just, is it just like that?" Li Zicheng finally said what was in his heart.

The relationship between Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai is now worse than the relationship with Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong has not torn his face with Li Zicheng yet, although there are all kinds of disagreements underneath, but the face is still passable, Zhang Xianzhong is still very comfortable as the king of the west of Dashun.

But Luo Rucai and Li Zicheng only have a relationship on paper.

The officers and soldiers were defeated, and after Li Zicheng defeated Sun Chuanting, he didn't take the officials and soldiers very seriously, but he regarded Luo Rucai as a big trouble.

"It's better than that." Niu Jinxing said: "Your Majesty, you can issue an edict and issue a reward, and order His Royal Highness King Wu to go south to Nanjing and give the court a wake-up call." ”

When Li Zicheng heard it in his heart, he felt that this matter was probably useless, thinking that Cao Cao had conquered Fengyang, and the officials and troops would not think that Luo Rucai wanted to attack Nanjing.

Li Zicheng's eyes swept away, but he saw Li Xin's brows furrowed slightly, and said, "Does the military advisor have any ideas?" ”

Li had something to say, but he didn't want to say it. In his opinion, no matter what the relationship with Cao Cao is, Cao Cao should not be stumbled at this time, because the main enemy of both sides is still the official army, and stumbling at this time may not be useful, but it seems that Li Zicheng is not strong enough.

Li Xin has been by Li Zicheng's side for a long time, and he also knows that his opinion will definitely not be adopted by Li Zicheng, so he simply doesn't want to say it, but Li Zicheng asked, but Li Xin is not the kind of person who deliberately conceals it, and said: "At this moment, when the king of Wu is encircled, after all, the king of Wu is in the east, I don't have to worry about the future, before Zuo Liangyu's attack on Huguang Liufu, although it was repelled by General Bai, but General Bai's loss is not small, King Wu drinks the Yangtze River, Zuo Liangyu's army will retreat, why should Your Majesty be happy for a while, and make the relationship between the two not good?" ”

When Li Zicheng heard Li Xin's words, he was suddenly unhappy in his heart.

Niu Jinxing said: "Li Junshi's words are wrong, not that His Majesty is from the outside of King Wu, but that King Wu is from the outside of His Majesty. If Your Majesty doesn't return the color, won't all the generals under the command of the imperial court dare not obey the orders of the imperial court? ”

"This ---" Li Xin didn't know what to say for a while. This is simply a concept of stealing, what is going on between Cao Ying and Chuang Ying, who doesn't know?

"Alright." Li Zicheng looked at Li Xin with a trace of hesitation in his eyes, and said secretly in his heart: "It seems that as soon as Li Junshi mentioned Cao Cao's matter, the strategies he offered were all out of standard. He said, "Just do what Mr. Niu wants." ”
