Hubei, Wuchang, Chu Wangfu. し

This is already the capital of the Onishi regime, and the Wuchang Mansion has been changed to the Heavenly Grant Mansion, which is also appropriate. Li Zicheng fought with the official army in Jiangbei and scared Zuo Liangyu away. Then Zhang Xianzhong ran over, attacked the city all the way, and arrived at the foot of Wuchang City.

The defenders of Wuchang City were all temporarily formed by the defeated soldiers who were defeated by Li Zicheng and fled, and the king of Chu was unwilling to pay food and wages, so he surrendered when Zhang Xianzhong attacked the city. A provincial city is so easy to get, it's really given for nothing.

The palace of the king of Chu is very well protected, and there is basically no damage. As soon as Zhang Xianzhong entered the city, the king of Chu immediately gave the soldiers silver, but it was too late. The soldiers all surrendered, and the Chu Palace's palace changed hands perfectly. It was when they were looting property in the back that some boys wanted to set fire, but they were also stopped by Zhang Xianzhong in time, which led to such a magnificent "palace".

However, for the freshly baked "King of the West", he was not so happy. Although he was also like Li Zicheng, he opened a branch and appointed local officials. However, his people are not as many as Li Zicheng, this Wuchang is snatched from Li Zicheng, and there is Zuo Liangyu who has 200,000 troops in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and he is now considered to be attacked on both sides.

Zhang Xianzhong summoned Xu Yixian in the side hall, and he asked: "Mr. Xu, if you have any ideas, just tell me, our old Zhang is also suffering from brain pain now." ”

Pan Duao came to Wuchang last year to lurk, and wanted to give Zhang Xianzhong a front station, but was arrested by the government and his head was removed, which made Zhang Xianzhong postpone his plan to enter Huguang. The current strategist, that is, Xu Yixian, can still give Zhang Xianzhong some ideas.

Xu Yixian said with some regret: "The king should have listened to me in Gucheng and got rid of Li Zicheng's house, but the king didn't make up his mind. Now, although we occupy more than a dozen states and counties, we are being attacked on both sides, and it is difficult. ”

"Alright, alright." Zhang Xianzhong said dissatisfiedly: "Who would have thought that Li Zicheng's gang could use hundreds of men and horses to roll into the current million-strong army, not to mention that the government was still strong at that time, how could it kill each other?"

Xu Yixian thought for a moment and said, "At the beginning, the king also gave a lot of food and horses and armor. He shouldn't be too intense now, if he can talk about it, even if we can divide the river and rule it. He still doesn't want to give up Wuchang Mansion, a prosperous place in the world, since he has established a political power, what is the matter with hiding in the poor countryside

Zhang Xianzhong waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "Don't mention those grain and military supplies, that's a little bigger." Li Zicheng even slaughtered Cao Cao and Ge Liyan, and he will remember that we have that little thing if we don't have Luo Ru to help him, so what if he Li Zicheng can have today's power, it's not that he will kill it."

Xu Yixian knew that Zhang Xianzhong already had an idea, so he asked: "What does the king mean~"

Zhang Xianzhong stroked his long beard, and after a long while, he said, "We have to go, we can't stay here." If we fight with Li Zicheng, Zuo Liangyu will intervene again, and we will be finished. Let's go to Hunan and Jiangxi, go to Sichuan, it's good. ”

Xu Yixian reminded: "King, although Bashu is a good place, the country of abundance, the mountains and rivers are dangerous. But Bashu only has the foundation of success, and has no power to expand. ”

"It's still a long time before the world is in turmoil." Zhang Xianzhong said indifferently: "Let's occupy a place first." Last year, I thought about making a cannon, but Ge Liyan had to go, and now it's okay, he's also dead, and I also lost Luzhou, and I haven't even made a cannon mold. With cannons, look at those old Huang Li who directly bombarded his mother"

Ever since he fought with Li Yan in Henan, he has been superstitious about the power of artillery, and has always wanted to cast a powerful cannon like Li Yan. But the sky did not follow people's wishes, and it was summer when Luzhou was occupied, and it was forced to give up in autumn. Now that he occupies Wuchang, it is still summer, and he has to give up and leave now. But the fact that the cannon could only be built in autumn and winter really made him feel extremely disappointed.

Xu Yixian asked: "Then Wuchang, let's just give up"

"Then where can we" Zhang Xianzhong immediately said: "We are also princes of one side, how can we leave without a fight, no matter how many or too small, we must always leave some people." When Li Zicheng called, it was not too late for them to abandon the city and catch up. ”

"What about the rest of the world?"

Zhang Xianzhong said simply: "Prepare and prepare, let's go together." It's a death for us to be scattered, so it's better to concentrate it. Leave those places and let Li Zicheng and Zuo Liangyu fight, just so that we don't have to worry about the future. ”

"It's still the king's foresight."

Xiangyang, Xiangwangfu.

At this time, the Xiangwang Mansion did not have the style of the Chu Wangfu, and it was still under repair. After Zhang Xianzhong invaded Xiangyang, he burned down the Xiangwang Mansion, and after two years of construction, it was only half restored. Now that Li Zicheng is the generalissimo of the Advocacy Mansion, it is not good to continue to work for the people and lose money, so he stopped the project first.

"This guy" Liu Zongmin stood up, threw down Sun Chuanting's secret letter to Qiu Zhitao, and scolded: "It's all written for him, and if you don't serve him well, I'll go and slaughter that guy to prevent future troubles."

Sun Chuanting wrote a reply to Qiu Zhitao and added contact. However, it was discovered by Li Zicheng's patrol post, revealing the true identity of the dangerous elements hidden in Li Zicheng's team.

Prime Minister Niu Jinxing also said: "That's right, we should take a head and let those demoted officials be honest, let's use them, we want them to be loyal, not let them do our big thing." ”

Now Niu Venus can be regarded as famous. It turned out that a person was framed and plotted to seize the family property, but now he is the prime minister of a government. The Wang family who framed him at the beginning had already been destroyed by him, and now he is high-spirited and powerful.

Li Zicheng waved his hand and stopped: "Wait first, give him another chance." After all, he is the son of a member of the imperial court, and he can vote for us to do things in the Advocate Mansion, which still has some appealing effect. ”

Tian Jianxiu also said: "Yes, there are still some benefits to staying first." ”

Liu Zongmin sat down again and asked Tian Jianxiu: "Yufeng, is Li Yan's words considered if he changes his hexagram, our 200,000 army will be in danger." ”

"It shouldn't be a problem." Tian Jianxiu was not sure, and said: "As long as we don't enter Henan, Li Yan should not move." If he wants to fight us with Sun Chuanting, we will only lose more than 100,000 people at most, but his Henan will not be peaceful. I think Li Yan should be able to weigh it clearly. ”

Li Zicheng clapped his hands and said: "Just prepare like this, we must keep the contract this time." If Li Yan dares to betray the alliance first, let's let the Zhu family court let it go first, and smash Henan to a pulp first."
