In fact, when Tian Jianxiu came, he didn't have much hope that Xiao Tianjian would reach out to rescue Gao Yingxiang, after all, everyone knows that Gao Yingxiang is such an important figure for the imperial court, and he was finally caught by the government this time, and the government will definitely attach great importance to it, and will definitely mobilize elites to escort him, Xiao Tianjian has not received how Gao Yingxiang has been favored, on the contrary, there are still some dirty things between him and Gao Yingxiang, forcing Xiao Tianjian to lead his troops to risk death to save him, this matter is unreasonable.

And when Li Zicheng sent him, it was not that he didn't expect this, but his wife Mrs. Gao was Gao Yingxiang's niece, and after Gao Yingxiang was captured, he cried and cried all day long asking Li Zicheng to find a way to rescue him, so Li Zicheng thought of Xiao Tianjian, holding a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and sending Tian Jianxiu to find Xiao Tianjian with a try, to test to see if Xiao Tianjian could lend a hand, if it was good, but if Xiao Tianjian didn't agree, they had no choice.

Now it seems that Xiao Tianjian will definitely not help in this matter, so Tian Jianxiu has no choice but to accept his fate and say nothing more.

Xiao Tianjian looked at the depressed Tian Jianxiu, and said with a smile: "Brother Tian, Xiao actually regards Brother Tian as his own brother, and some words are more convenient!" In fact, Brother Tian doesn't have to feel sorry for this, and Brother Hongji doesn't have to run for this, to put it mildly, King Chuang was captured this time, which is a good thing for Brother Hongji! ”

Tian Jianxiu raised his eyebrows, a little dissatisfied with Xiao Tianjian's gloating tone, so he asked, "What kind of good thing is this?" Could it be that Brother Xiao, are you still angry with King Chuang for your previous unhappiness? If that's the case, then there's nothing left to say about the foolish brother! ”

Xiao Tianjian really didn't have any sense of schadenfreude about Gao Yingxiang's defeat and capture, even if he was there with Gao Yingxiang at the beginning, he suffered a lot of bird anger, it would not affect his respect for Gao Yingxiang, after all, Gao Yingxiang was a relatively determined leader of the rebel army who resisted the tyranny of the imperial court, and as their peers, Gao Yingxiang was defeated and captured, which was also a pity for Xiao Tianjian.

Looking at Tian Jianxiu's displeased look, Xiao Tianjian and Tian Jianxiu touched a cup, and said seriously: "Brother Tian doesn't have to be angry, Xiao is by no means gloating, Xiao is not that kind of villain, the reason why Xiao said this just now is because in Xiao's opinion, Gao Chuang's defeat and capture is indeed a good thing for Brother Li, although Brother Li was nominally the eight teams under Gao Chuang's command, but in fact, it is self-contained, and the teams under Gao Chuang's command are actually their own affairs, just a plate of scattered sand, and now Gao Chuang's army is defeated, It is precisely for this reason that there was a traitor under his command, which caused his defeat and capture!

And this time after Gao Chuang is captured, his forces will fall apart, and now that the matter has come to this, Brother Li should not consider how to rescue Gao Chuang, but to use this opportunity to reorganize the old department under Gao Chuang, carry this banner of Chuang, and quickly expand your strength, in order to avenge Gao Chuang in the next step!

If Brother Li can seize this opportunity and quickly incorporate the old department under Gao Chuang's command, it will grow rapidly, so that bad things will become good things, and Brother Li will take over the name of King Chuang, and then he will be able to fight against the government! If Brother Li is willing to do this now, then Xiao is also willing to nominate him as the new king, if you need help, Xiao will not give up! ”

After Tian Jianxiu heard this, he nodded, raised his glass and drank another glass and said, "That's what I said, but now Brother Xiao probably doesn't know, we are very difficult now!" Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting's dog officials have deployed heavy troops in various parts of Shaanxi and constantly squeezed us, and all parts of Shaanxi are now full of red land, and we have no way to obtain grain and armor, and now they are being pursued everywhere by the officers and soldiers, so it can only be difficult to survive!

Since my brother said so, I can only do anything to rescue Gao Chuang, but Tian really has some things and wants to ask my brother to help us! ”

Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "Brother Tian has something to say, just open your mouth!" As long as Xiao can help, he will definitely find a way to help you! ”

Tian Jianxiu said: "At present, we are running around in Shaanxi, and all kinds of materials are extremely scarce, and after more than a year of fierce battles with the official army, our weapons have suffered a huge loss, and salt and grain are very short!"

We heard that brother, you are in this area, and we think that compared to us, there must be more doorways, so I don't know if my brother can help us raise some weapons, salt and food, as long as we have weapons, then we are not afraid of those officers and soldiers! Our general will definitely be able to carry the banner of breaking the word and continue to fight against the government!

Of course! We will not let our brother provide us with these things in vain, after all these years of fighting in the north and south, we have also accumulated some yellow and white things, as long as the brother is willing to help, we are willing to pay a high price to buy these things from the brother, I wonder if the brother can help us with this? ”

Xiao Tianjian laughed secretly in his heart, in fact, Li Zicheng sent Tian Jianxiu here this time, begging him to send troops to rescue Gao Yingxiang is fake, and coming to him to help with the procurement of armor salt and grain is probably the real purpose!

In fact, what he said just now, he didn't need to say that Li Zicheng himself also understood that after the defeat of King Gao Yingxiang, for him, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, as long as Gao Yingxiang was there, then he would never be visible in this righteous army Li Zicheng, the general of the eight teams, even if he made a big fuss, it was nominally Gao Yingxiang's part.

Now that Gao Yingxiang has been defeated and captured, his old subordinates will naturally fall apart, and there will inevitably be some people who want to follow Li Zicheng, so Li Zicheng has made a lot of profits in this matter, and what good is it for him to save Gao Chuang? After Gao Yingxiang was rescued, as long as he raised his arms, then King Chuang would still be Gao Yingxiang's, and soon many people would reunite under him, and it would be impossible for Li Zicheng to get a little cheap.

When Li Zicheng sent Tian Jianxiu here, I am afraid that he had already seen clearly that Xiao Tianjian would never take action in rescuing Gao Yingxiang, so he would send Tian Jianxiu over, otherwise, Li Zicheng would not have sent Tian Jianxiu to find him!

And Tian Jianxiu is more sincere, of course he can't guess Li Zicheng's thoughts, and he is still worried about Xiao Tianjian's refusal to rescue King Gao Chuang, and now he has to say Li Zicheng's true thoughts.

After listening to Tian Jianxiu's words, Xiao Tianjian nodded and agreed, this matter actually doesn't need to be thought about, now Xiao Tianjian needs Li Zicheng to make more trouble, Li Zicheng is making a lot of trouble, then the court will not pay attention to his Xingtianjun, and his life will be better.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has not yet collapsed immediately, he Xiao Tianjian is not crazy enough to think that he will sweep the world with these troops at hand, and for a long time in the future, he needs righteous troops like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong to contain the strength of the official army.

What's more, at present, the finances of his Xingtian Army are also very tight, the silver he has robbed over the years, after continuous procurement of materials and rewards, there is very little money on hand, and the Xingtian Army is now fighting, it is different from the past, and the requirements for logistics are getting bigger and bigger, no money is not at all, he must open up a wide range of ways to make money, just by doing business with the Fan family and some businessmen, it is no longer possible to meet his needs, so it is necessary for him to find a bigger buyer for their products.

Li Zicheng sent Tian Jianxiu here at the right time, he had a lot of iron to buy in hand to balance their income and expenditure, so in this matter, Xiao Tianjian didn't have to think too much about it, so he immediately agreed.

"No problem! Brother also knows the difficulties of Brother Hongji, we didn't get in touch a few days ago, and now that Brother Tian has come to find me Xiao, how can I sit idly by?

Everything is easy to say in terms of armor, since Brother Li needs it, then I can squeeze out a part and give it to you, Brother Youtian is our friendship, as for the price, everything is naturally easy to say! I won't let you suffer!

But in terms of salt and grain, I'm afraid it's not easy to handle! Brother Tian also knows that Shanxi has just experienced a spring drought, and the summer grain has not yet been harvested, and we are still in short supply of food, so it goes without saying that we will take it out to you! But on the salt, we still have some accumulation, and we can give some of it to you! I also hope that Brother Tian can understand his brother's hardships! ”

This time Tian Jianxiu has no opinion on Xiao Tianjian, seeing that Xiao Tianjian is so refreshing, he agreed to his request, then this time he came to Shanxi, at least it is equivalent to completing half of Li Zicheng's entrustment to him, and Tian Jianxiu can ignore Xiao Tianjian's previous suspicions, in such a situation, he is very grateful for helping them, and hurriedly got up to thank Xiao Tianjian, everyone knows the problem of food, Shanxi is also famine, and it is reasonable that the Xingtianjun can't squeeze out food. And Xiao Tianjian was able to promise to provide them with armor and salt, which already made him very satisfied.

So Tian Jianxiu immediately became much more interested, and Xiao Tianjian pushed the cup and drank it, during which it was indispensable to tell Xiao Tianjian in detail about the situation of the rebels from all walks of life, these news for Xiao Tianjian can not be bought with money, after listening to what Tian Jianxiu said, Xiao Tianjian made a general judgment, that is, after Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting joined forces to attack the rebels in Shaanxi during this period of time, the losses of the rebels from all walks of life are very large, and they have so far, I haven't really understood why they are in such a predicament.

And these news for Xiao Tianjian, naturally very precious, unintentional words, but let Xiao Tianjian suddenly find a huge opportunity, although now all the righteous army because of Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting and others joint attack, began to gradually enter the low tide, but for their Xingtianjun, it is also a rare opportunity, Lu Xiangsheng transferred north to Xuanda Shanxi, then the strength of Henan's next official army will be weakened, and now all the righteous troops in Henan have been driven out of Henan, As a result, there was a rare power vacuum in Henan.

Xiao Tianjian was drinking with Tian Jianxiu, but he pondered in his heart, after a drink, the matter between him and Tian Jianxiu was almost the same.
