Chapter 836: Potential

Wang Chengen replied: "Back to the saint, after the defeat of the Cao Taifu army, he is now approaching Xi'an with the new army. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoAs long as Xi'an is a little, the whole territory of Shaanxi will be restored! ”

When Zhu Youzhen heard this, his face was really happy.

With a flick of the dragon robe, Zhu Youzhen sat back on the throne, and took a closer look at Li Zhi's recital.

Zhang Guanghang looked at the face of the Son of Heaven, said goodbye, and retreated.

Wang Chengen watched Zhang Guanghang gradually walk away, and then he came to the side of the Son of Heaven and asked, "Holy Lord, such a great victory as the pacification of Japan, do you want to sacrifice to the Taimiao?" ”

Zhu Youzhen shook his head and said, "Wait, when Xi'an is captured, it's not too late to sacrifice to the Taimiao." ”

Wang Chengen was stunned, his eyes rolled, and he was thinking about what the Son of Heaven meant.

Zhu Youzhen turned his head to look at Wang Chengen and asked, "Wang Chengen, don't you understand what I mean?" ”

Wang Chengen arched his hand embarrassedly and said, "The slave really doesn't understand... This is the destruction of the Japanese sacrifice to the Taimiao, why wait until Xi'an is pacified. ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled and said, "Wang Chengen, think about it, all the officials were present when the temple was sacrificed. That's the great thing that proclaims to the world. If nothing else, I'm afraid that the newspapers run by the king of Tianjin in various places will report on this matter. ”

"If the new army has not been able to pacify Shaanxi at the time of the sacrifice to the Taimiao, what will the people of the world think when they see the news in the newspaper?"

"The king of Tianjin in the south except for the thieves, the north to destroy the East slaves, the east to swallow Korea, the west to sweep Henan, the great martial arts are known to the world. The situation between the imperial court and the king of Tianjin is already heavy on the inside and outside, and the tail is too big to lose. If Shaanxi has not been swept when the temple is sacrificed now, how will the world view the king of Tianjin and the imperial court? ”

"I'm afraid that the talents in the world feel that this world is the world fought by the king of Tianjin, and they don't take the court in their eyes anymore."

"The so-called general trend of the world, the most important thing is a trend. If the people of the world despise the imperial court and defect to the king of Tianjin like a hundred rivers, then the situation of the imperial court will not be precarious. When the time comes, any official appointed by the imperial court will have his heart set on the king of Tianjin, and he will be ready to surrender to the king of Tianjin at any time, so who else will listen to my words? ”

"I'm afraid that the situation in which the Donglin Party controlled the government like that at the beginning will be repeated. It's just that the Donglin Party controls the imperial court in the capital, and the king of Tianjin controls the imperial court remotely in Tianjin. ”

Wang Chengen thought for a while, arched his hand and said, "Emperor Shengming! ”

Zhu Youzhen said slowly: "If you wait for the new army to level Shaanxi Province, and then sacrifice to Taimiao, when people in the world get the news, they will feel that although Tianjin is very strong, the imperial court is not weak." The situation in this world is still under my control after all. ”

"I have been founding the country for nearly 300 years, and there are still most loyal and patriotic people in the world. As long as the imperial court can do something and not look completely stupid and useless, the public opinion and talents in the world will still support the imperial court after all. ”

"So as long as the new army can sweep away Shaanxi, the situation will be completely different. When the time comes, Shaanxi and Japan will be sacrificed to Taimiao at the same time, which is the real good news that the ancestors are willing to hear. ”

Wang Chengen arched his hand and said: "The emperor is wise and martial, and the slaves and maids are so impressed that they throw themselves to the ground." No matter how brave the king of Tianjin is, he is only a tiger minister, and the saint is the true dragon emperor! As long as the saint is in charge of the universe in the center, then my Ming Dynasty will be worry-free! ”

Hearing Wang Chengen's flattery, Zhu Youzhen smiled.

"Send an order to General Xiao Cao, let him take Xi'an quickly, and I am waiting to knight him!"

"Slaves obey!"

Looking at the weather outside the hall, Zhu Youzhen stretched his waist and said: "Wang Chengen, this is the good weather in autumn, tomorrow I will go out to hunt, and I will also experience the killing of the military ministers to expand the territory!" ”

In the palace of King Qin in Xi'an City, Li Zicheng and the generals sat in the main hall carrying hall, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.

King Qin was the first vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, and the royal mansion was of high standard. The scale of the city of the palace of the king of Qin ranks first among the palaces of the feudal domains, "the scale is magnificent, it will convince the hearts of the people, and the fence of the feudal domain is fixed", the city wall of the royal city is three zhang and four feet high, the circumference is eleven miles, and the main hall of the palace of the king of Qin is "as high as nine zhang and nine feet, and it is overwhelming".

But the figures seated in the temple were not symmetrical to the magnificent temple. The warriors and scribes who broke into the army all had a look of defeat.

Niu Jinxing arched his hand and said: "King Chuang, Xiao Cao has been forced to the north of the city for a hundred miles, and Xi'an can be surrounded in a few days." Shall we defend the city now, or will we find another way out? ”

Li Zicheng looked at the magnificent hall around him and sighed.

At this time, Li Zicheng did not have the momentum to swallow the world. For Li Zicheng, his greatest wish at this time is to be king. Shaanxi is Li Zicheng's hometown, and for Li Zicheng, being able to be king in Shaanxi is the biggest dream of his life.

This dream was once very close to Li Zicheng, when Li Zicheng occupied the entire territory of Henan, and then entered Shaanxi, and swept south of the Yellow River within half a year. At that time, Li Zicheng returned to his hometown Mizhi with the prince's honor guard snatched from the palace of King Qin, what kind of scenery was that?

To this day, Li Zicheng relives the scene of that day in his sweet dreams at night.

However, before Li Zicheng could sit in a hot chair in Shaanxi, Li Zhi ordered the Tiger Ben army to enter Henan, and then the new army of the Son of Heaven invaded Shaanxi. These new-style armies are equipped with weapons that surpass this era, and they are not afraid of the wet rain or the darkness of the night, so that Li Zicheng has been defeated again and again.

Now Li Zicheng can be said to be in trouble on all sides.

Li Zicheng looked at the huge coiling dragon pillar in the main hall and took another breath. This Qin Wangfu, he is really a little reluctant.

After being silent for a long time, Li Zicheng asked: "Now that Xiao Cao is pressing all the way south, going faster and faster, what do you think of the big guy?" ”

Gao Yigong, the general of the Chuang army, roared loudly: "King Chuang, we still have 150,000 soldiers, enough to fight a bloody battle with the new army of more than 60,000 people!" ”

Hearing Gao Yigong's words, everyone fell silent.

Although Cao Bianjiao only had more than 60,000 people, in fact, there were only 50,000 people left in Cao Bianjiao's new army, but all of those 50,000 people were equipped with Lumi guns and new cannons. With the help of Li Zhi and a large amount of equipment from Tianjin, these 50,000 new troops could basically fight around the clock. Not to mention that there are only 150,000 people left in the invasion army, even the 300,000 invasion army in its heyday may not be able to defeat the 50,000 new army.

The Chuang army had fought with the new army, and all the generals in the palace knew the combat effectiveness of this new army, and they were silent one by one.

Looking at the silent generals, Li Zicheng frowned.

After thinking for a while, Li Zicheng couldn't help but let out a helpless sigh.

Hearing King Chuang's sigh, the generals sighed one after another. For a time, the hall was full of the sighs of tall Shaanxi men.

Li Guo looked at the discouraged looks of the other generals, stood up and arched his hand and said: "King Chuang, at this moment, there is no way to fight to the death with the new army. I think we only have to go south to Huguang and gather troops with Li Dingguo's righteous army, and maybe there is a chance to reorganize the mountains and rivers! ”
