Chapter 111: Li Xin's Death III
"However, the life and death of the minister is a small matter, and Your Majesty's major affairs are important."
"If the battle of Tongguan is born, His Majesty will put it on fire with the letter of the minister, and the minister will speak falsely. If defeated, please retreat to Xiangyang, make peace with Zhang Luo, stick to Xiangyang Shufu, and wait for the time to ------"
In his letters, Li Xin made a detailed analysis of the form of breaking into the camp, and the implication was that he was not optimistic about the battle of Tongguan and advocated abandoning Shaanxi.
And this Shaanxi is not the Shaanxi Province of the later generations, but the three provinces of Gansu, Shaanxi and Ningbo in the later generations, as well as one part of Qinghai. Therefore, let Li Zicheng gather troops and horses early, detour through Hanzhong and Wuguan Road, enter Xiangyang, and take the place where Xiangyang is going to rush north and south, thinking that he will hold on.
Ally with Luo Rucai and Zhang Xianzhong to conquer the north.
And so on----, the feelings are sincere and touching. After letting Li Zicheng see it, he couldn't help but regret it in his heart, and said secretly: "Mr. Li has no intention of betraying me, and there must be something strange about Xiangyang at the beginning." It's just that I missed him. ”
Chinese always have such a concept, people die is great.
No matter what a person does while he is alive, it seems that as long as he dies, he can be whitewashed.
Li Xin just knows this, he is alive, Li Zicheng is afraid that he will never let go of the knots in his heart. But as soon as Li Xin died, there was no threat to Li Zicheng, and there was no need for others to persuade him, and Li Zicheng's evaluation of Li Xin had a 180-degree turn.
Immediately, he set his eyes on the word "villain" on the letter.
Li Zicheng said: "Send someone to invite Niu Jinxing here." ”
In Li Zicheng's tone, the commonly used Mr. Niu, Prime Minister Niu, has become Niu Jinxing, which has explained a lot of things.
When Liu Zongmin heard this, he felt that something was wrong. sent someone to pack up Li Xin's body, and when Niu Jinxing came, Liu Zongmin strode forward, grabbed Niu Jinxing's collar, and said, "You villain." Then the long knife came out of the sheath, and the knife technique reflected Niu Jinxing's face.
Niu Jinxing's face suddenly turned pale. Almost dissipated, he said, "General Liu, why is this?" ”
"And ask me why?" Liu Zongmin said: "You villain, slander and force Li Junshi to death, I will kill you and avenge Li Junshi." ”
"Alright." Li Zicheng was furious and said, "Put down the knife." ”
Liu Zongmin ruthlessly put the long knife back into the sheath, knelt down to Li Zicheng and said: "The last general will lose his honor, and please punish Your Majesty." ”
"Let's go down and reflect." Li Zicheng's voice was as cold as iron and said.
"Yes." Liu Zongmin lowered his head and said. Then he glared at Niu Jinxing and said, "If I see you again in the future, I will kill you." Then he left.
After Liu Zongmin left, his face was full of anger, which suddenly subsided, but he saw a thin snowflake falling outside again. Liu Zongmin only felt that this snowflake was almost falling into his heart, really
It's so cold, I don't know if it's because Li Xin feels cold, or because of the future of the camp.
Li Zicheng smashed Li Xin's suicide note on Niu Jinxing's face and said, "Do you have anything to say?" ”
"The minister blames Li Junshi for his mistake, and the minister deserves death, but the minister didn't think that Li Junshi was so strong." Niu Jinxing said with a blank face: "The minister is willing to make amends for General Li's filial piety." ”
"Alright." Li Zicheng said: "This matter is something he can't think about, what is the matter with Mr. Guan Niu?" ”
When Li Zicheng was angry just now, he also thought about taking Niu Jinxing and asking him carefully, what is there in this.
But Liu Zongmin's momentum to kill Niu Jinxing made Li Zicheng come back to his senses.
The dead are not as good as the living, no matter what happened before Li Xin. Now he is a dead man, and Cai Cao Ying's big things need to be supported. As soon as Li Xin died, Niu Jinxing also died, and although there were many talents in the camp, there was also some chaos.
And the big war is imminent, and it can't withstand the chaos.
Li Zicheng said secretly: "I will remember this one thing." ”
It's just that now, he can only hold it high and let it go gently, and even declare to the public that Li Xin died of an accidental cold.
But how can such a lie be concealed, first, in the camp, there are many discussions, and there is everything, under the strong pressure of Li Zicheng, no one dares to say it openly, but in private, the military heart is even more discrete.
In order to show his sincerity, Niu Jinxing personally handled Li Xin's funeral, but the big war was imminent, and it could not be delayed in Luochuan. As long as it is hastily buried.
Niu Venus was busy with all this, returned to his room, closed his eyes and recuperated. But unconsciously, he gritted his teeth and made a sound. He hates two more people, one is Song Xiance.
Song Xiance was simply a two-bird plan, that is, to get rid of Li Xin, and also to bury a big black cauldron for him. The black cauldron that made him unable to distinguish, especially Li Zicheng's attitude, Li Zicheng was mainly appeased at all, and he did not ask in detail, which means that Li Zicheng believed in him.
No, this means that Li Zicheng believes that it is him.
No matter how much hate you have, it's Li Xin.
"It's not good for you to die, leave a suicide note." Niu Jinxing said secretly: "It's clear that he wants to pull me down." ”
Maybe Li Zicheng felt that Li Xin was loyal to him until he died, but Niu Jinxing didn't think so, he knew that Li Xin was determined to hate Li Zicheng. Without him, Niu Jinxing and Li Xin know each other too well from the beginning of the fight to the present.
The reason why Li Xin has been repeatedly suppressed by Niu Jinxing is not that Li Xin is not Niu Jinxing's opponent in terms of power and strategy.
And Li is confident that there is a big picture.
But in Li Xin's suicide note, it seems that word by word, Niu Jinxing is not said, but every word is accusing him, dressing himself up as a great hero who has died with all his might, and naturally puts Niu Jinxing on the opposite side.
Niu Jinxing felt Li Xin's despair at this moment.
As long as the emperor's power is not sidelined, the victory or defeat between the courtiers will never be the ability of the courtiers, but where the emperor's favor is?
Li Xin took his life and gave Niu Jinxing the title of a villain.
Niu Jinxing may have his own talents, but he is not unique, after Li Zicheng defeated Sun Chuanting, there was not as much shortage of people as at the beginning. People who want to replace Niu Venus dare not say that they have a lot of car, but they are by no means in the minority.
Perhaps now that the war is imminent, there will be chaos in the rear. Li Zicheng will not win Niu Jinxing, but if the war is stable in the future, how long can Niu Jinxing's position as prime minister last.
If Li Xin had been thinking about the camp before, he would never have done this, but now Li Xin of course knew that after his death, the camp army was unstable, and he also left a letter, so that Li Zicheng and Niu Jinxing had a knot in their hearts, and they thought that they would have already thrown the overall situation of the camp out of the clouds.
"It's so ruthless." Niu Venus for a while, there was no way to crack it, but to deal with it coldly, and wait for this matter to cool down.
"Daddy." Niu Yan said: "There are people from my hometown again, let my father arrange some positions." ”
The Chinese have always been like this, one person attains the Tao, and the chicken dog ascends to heaven.
Ox Venus is developed, and naturally people come to climb it.
Niu Jinxing sneered and said, "Let them all get out of me, and I won't see any of them?" The head of you and my father and son is just a temporary head, I don't know where he is, why bother to pull people down the fire pit, you send a message to them, the situation in the world is undecided, let them stay at home, wait three years and then talk about it is not too late. ”
Niu Yan didn't know why his father was so angry. didn't dare to slack off, and immediately sent a message to Niu Jinxing.
After Niu Yan left, Niu Venus was like a deflated ball, and his spirit was gone.
The army of the camp went south from Luochuan to Tongguan, when Niu Jinxing accompanied him, he told his son to prepare gold and silver, ready to escape at any time, although he did not deal with Li Xin, but after all, he still believed in Li Xin's ability, but now that Li Xin went, he was also worried about the combat power of the camp.
At the end of the month, there were swords and guns inside and outside Tongguan, ready to go. Zhang Xuan's army also swept through several prefectures and counties, biting off most of the east side of Hudong. The Art of War up to Wuchang. But before the army arrived, they heard a message.
Hongguang patrols the south, the king of Tang is left behind in Wuchang, with 100,000 soldiers, with Zuo Liangyu as the commander, guarding Wuchang City.
After Zhang Xuan heard the news, he smiled contemptuously before, and said secretly: "I didn't run before, but I want to run now, don't you know that it's too late?" "Zhang Xuan has long been prepared for Hongguang's virtue, and he has already prepared it at this moment.
If Hongguang escaped so easily, it would be a failure to live up to Zhang Xuan's arrangement.
