Among the generals under the Tiger of the Mountain, only less than 200 people are his old subordinates, and the remaining nearly eighty percent are composed of displaced people who have just been recruited, when they saw the military appearance of the Xingtian Army, they were already frightened one by one Some calves turned tendons, and their faces were ugly and green.

"General! It's all against the government, so you can't turn your face like this! They can't go if they want to? Why fight with them? Someone in the group immediately shouted.

He wanted to die, his subordinates didn't want to die, and it was okay to fight with the officers and soldiers, but now he had to work hard with his peers, and someone would quit immediately.

The tiger was about to find out the person who was going against him in the crowd, and slaughtered him as fast as possible, when suddenly a few horses galloped from a distance, and the man on the horse shouted from afar: "Don't do it!" The king has an order, and the tiger takes the order! ”

The mountain tiger saw someone rushing on horseback, so he had to suppress his anger, led his horse to meet these people who were chasing from the direction of Longzhou, blew his beard and glared loudly and asked, "What does King Chuang say?" Isn't it for me to stop this guy! ”

A man rode on a horse and rushed to the mountain tiger and shouted: "The mountain tiger obeys the order, King Chuang orders you to immediately lead your troops back to the camp, and you must not be rude to the brothers of the Xingtian Army!" ”

"Huh? How could it be ......? The mountain tiger was immediately deflated and asked loudly to the visitor.

"Needless to say, the military order is difficult to disobey, General Zhang should return to the camp quickly! King Chuang ordered me to go and see General Xiao! The person who came to give the order was not polite to the Tiger at all, shouted at him, and after saying that, he turned around and turned his horse, and ran to the front of the Xingtian Army.

"General Xiao is invited! Under Li Hu, is the person under the account of King Chuang, today he was specially ordered by King Chuang, came to meet General Xiao, King Chuang has heard the news that the general is going to lead his troops to leave, but because King Chuang is riddled with trivial matters, he can not come to see off the general in person, so he ordered to see off the general in the next place, King Chuang has words, General Xiao has grace to us first, after leaving, when there is a difficulty, you can come to King Chuang again, King Chuang will definitely meet you!

In addition, there was a lot of offense to the tiger just now, and I hope General Xiao will forgive me, don't leave it here, the general is easy to go! Farewell! Li Hu, who had passed the word, reined in front of the Xingtian army, shouted loudly at Xiao Tianjian, and after finishing speaking, he hugged Xiao Tianjian on the horse's back, and then turned the horse's head and galloped away without looking back.

Xiao Tianjian snorted and sneered, and also hugged his fists as a salute, and after seeing that Li Hu leave, he saw the whole team of the mountain tiger humming angrily, and walked towards the Longzhou camp with his subordinates in a gray turn, and there was no longer the arrogance when he first came.

And Xiao Tianjian turned around and shouted: "After the first post and the third post hall, all those who chase our army will be regarded as enemies, and they will be killed and repelled for me on the spot, and the rest of the battalions will turn to the northeast, let's turn to the direction of Qingyang!" ”

The Xingtian Army then moved again, this time they did not march out of the defensive phalanx, but instead changed to a linear formation, with scouts in front of the way, and began to set foot on the road.

In the evening of the next day, the Xingtian army left the boundary of Longzhou and entered the territory of Jingchuan, and in a day and a half, they traveled dozens of miles, such a speed, even if it was replaced by the cavalry of the official army, I am afraid it would take so long, and the Xingtian army walked out of such a long distance with its legs.

After entering Jingchuan, Xiao Tianjian no longer worried about anything, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng would never send troops over to their disadvantage, so under his order, the Xingtian Army began to camp on the spot, so that the officers and soldiers in the army could have a good rest.

After a day and a half of rushing down, even if it is a person who is beaten with iron, he will be tired enough, and the Xingtianjun is also full of people, so it is nonsense to say that he is not tired, even Xiao Tianjian's own soles of his feet are blistered, not to mention people with poor physical fitness.

However, compared to their separation from Gao Yingxiang this time, the big guy is still very happy, originally before he saw Gao Yingxiang, everyone including Xiao Tianjian admired Gao Yingxiang very much, but after contact, he found that this person was not as righteous as the legend, and it could even be said that there was some yin damage, and for Li Zicheng, Xiao Tianjian's parity immediately fell a lot, and now he completely understands why these people did not achieve great things in the end, from their essence, Although they are very famous and can do a hundred responses, they can gather a large number of rebels in a short period of time, but they can not feed so many people, they can only eat up one place like locusts, and then change places to eat, and the place can be said to be a scorched earth, but there is no production, so that although the rebels are developing rapidly, they have never been able to gain a firm foothold in one place, just a matter of food, forced them to become an outcast.

And Xiao Tianjian now understands their ability, so he naturally doesn't want to get involved with them anymore, and it's just right that they continue to make trouble in Shaanxi, and now the imperial court and the Shaanxi government have probably already paid all their attention to them, so it just happened to create favorable conditions for him to find a foothold in the next step and dive down to take care of a base area.

So this is the real reason why Xiao Tianjian chose to leave Longzhou at this time, and as for how to sneak into Shanxi, he also discussed with Fu Deming many times, that is, to attack the east and the west, and be erratic, first use guerrilla tactics to flow in Shaanxi, and gradually march in the direction of Shanxi.

As for the choice of route, Xiao Tianjian first chose Qingyang Mansion, so after leaving Longzhou, he led the army north and entered the territory of Jingchuan, which belongs to the jurisdiction of Pingliang Mansion, but it is not a place where soldiers must fight, so it can be said that it is the safest way to go to Qingyang here.

It's just that because it's not an official road, they can only take mountain trails all the way, so the speed of the march has been affected to a certain extent, but even so, looking at the various armies nowadays, their speed is enough to make them proud.

Although the march is tiring, but the mood of the soldiers in the army is very comfortable, these days they have contact with Li Zicheng and Gao Yingxiang's subordinates, so that they have a strong sense of pride, they are also righteous soldiers, but their Xingtian Army is far stronger than other righteous armies in terms of food and equipment, which also invisibly makes the soldiers of the Xingtian Army have a sense of belonging, and feel a kind of pride for them to be able to do things in the Xingtian Army.

This is Xiao Tianjian's unexpected gain, which makes him very pleased, and it also makes him more determined to take the line of elite soldiers, he doesn't want too many generals, but as long as there is one, he must use one on the top, and even a few people must use it, and the battle of Dashiqiao has also thoroughly tested his idea of building an army, even if he meets the officers and soldiers of the same strength now, he no longer has to worry about not being the opponent of the official army, which is where he has the confidence to act alone.

When the night was shrouded in this land, after having dinner with the generals, Zhang Chao found Xiao Tianjian and asked Xiao Tianjian in a low voice: "General, then He Renlong's nephew is still locked up in our camp!" Could it be that the general plans to take him with him? This guy is an Internet café and has a strong heart to be loyal to the court with his uncle, and it is a burden to keep it, so it is better to simply kill him with a knife and pull him down! ”

was reminded by Zhang Chao like this, Xiao Tianjian remembered that there was still a He Fang in his camp, originally he kept He Fang and did not kill, and wanted to coerce He Renlong once something happened in Longzhou, or to exchange some benefits from He Renlong, but he never found a chance to establish contact with He Renlong, and after Gao Yingxiang came to besiege the city, he couldn't find a suitable opportunity.

And the relationship between him and Gao Yingxiang also deteriorated very quickly, which made the original plan change very quickly, so that now he decided to lead his troops to break away from Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng and go on the road alone, and this He Fang's matter was forgotten by him, and now he was reminded by Zhang Chaoyi, which reminded Xiao Tianjian of this matter again.

Xiao Tianjian pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Take me to meet He Fang first!" ”
