Li Xiuwen and Hong Chengchou spent nearly a month, always holding the city, rarely going out of the city to fight, and the other party had nothing to do with him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He was determined to fight a protracted war and reduce casualties, most of them were based on the city, and he did not fight Hong Chengchou head-on at all. What he needs now is time.

As long as the last month passes, Xuanwuwei should be able to participate in the battle, and when the number of soldiers increases, the certainty of repelling Hong Chengchou will be greater.

Hong Chengchou is also waiting, waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to increase the chances of winning. Unfortunately, Zhu Lunkun not only resisted the order, but also killed the people he sent.

Hong Chengchou waited for several days without any news, and later sent someone into Kaifeng City to inquire about the situation, only to learn about it. In desperation, he had to ask the imperial court and Yang Sichang for more troops.

Yang Sichang was furious after getting the news, and now he is supervising the division in Huguang to quell the chaos, how can he have extra troops to send reinforcements? You Hong Chengchou is really useless, 50,000 people actually let people stop outside Cizhou City, and they can't advance an inch for more than a month, how did this battle go?

Yang Sichang didn't pay much attention to the situation in He1 Nan, and he didn't know that the White Lotus Sect had something to do with Li Xiuwen. In his opinion, Li Xiuwen is several times less than Zhang Xianzhong's people, and this Hong Chengchou obviously didn't fight seriously, so he couldn't beat Cizhou City.

In fact, Hong Chengchou could completely mobilize the officers and soldiers of the nearby guard post to participate in the siege battle. As long as you are willing to pay the price of a large number of casualties, you may not be able to take Cizhou City.

It's just that he really doesn't look down on the combat power of these people, and he also cherishes his own soldiers, and he doesn't want to ruin the cauldron for a small Cizhou City, and lose his troops.

In addition, the officers and men of the guard station are too cowardly to fight, and if they do not do a good job and run away before the battle starts, it will affect the morale of the whole army at that time, and the disadvantages are not insignificant.

Hong Chengchou is not like Sun Chuanting and Yang Sichang, Sun Chuanting kills people and stands up for power, that is really not very important to the black gauze hat on his head, and Yang Sichang kills people, but he is ordered by the king.

Kill the general Liwei yourself?

Then you can't be drowned by the saliva of those officials in the court?

In the absence of troops, Hong Chengchou was unwilling to go all out to attack the city, so he had to spend it like this.

From time to time, Li Xiuwen would open a city gate and go out to make a small fuss. But they all found out the location of the general soldier Cao Bianjiao in advance, and tried to avoid him as much as possible.

Just when the two were at a stalemate, Sun Chuanting came.

After Li Xiuwen heard the report of his own soldiers, he was naturally very surprised, Sun Chuanting took the initiative to come over, and it was very likely that he was willing to take refuge in himself. If you have this person to help, will you be afraid of him Hong Chengchou?

At the same time, he was still a little surprised in his heart, didn't Sun Chuanting's appearance fulfill Song Er's words?

This game-breaker is really Sun Chuanting?

Originally, Li Xiuwen didn't believe in these divination techniques. Now it's a little shaken, these things are still very mysterious, and it's better to believe them than not to believe them.

Li Xiuwen personally greeted him, and when he saw Sun Chuanting, he smiled and said, "Why did Lord Sun come here in person?" If there's something going on, just let someone come and let them know. ”

"Grass people Sun Chuanting, meet General Li!"

Sun Chuanting was about to fall to his knees, but Li Xiuwen hurriedly stepped forward to support him: "How can Lord Sun make such a big gift?" ”

Sun Chuanting saw that he insisted on not accepting it, but he no longer insisted. He shook his head and sighed: "The old man is neither the governor of Shaanxi nor the governor of the three sides now, but the prisoner of the imperial court, and the general still doesn't want to be called an adult." ”

Li Xiuwen looked at him seriously and said: "Lord Sun Yunwen Yunwu, if you enter, you will be a general, and you should be called so!" ”

Sun Chuanting was silent for a while, and then threw his hand to the ground: "The old man and the general have met less than three times, but they have been treated so favorably, if they don't know the favor again, wouldn't they be ashamed?" ”

Li Xiuwen was determined that Sun Chuanting's move was to show that he was willing to serve himself. He gestured and invited: "Lord Sun, please!" ”

After that, the two discussed in the big tent of the Chinese army.

Li Xiuwen briefly explained the current situation, and after a little thought, Sun Chuanting said: "Although it is safer to defend the city, it is not a long-term solution after all. ”

"Why?"

Li Xiuwen wondered. He always thought that he could afford it.

After all, the financial problems of the Ming Dynasty were very big, and with so many empty soldiers, and the imperial court tax was insufficient, it was impossible to fight a protracted war with itself.

Therefore, he was sincere in dragging Hong Chengchou until the enemy army was brought down.

Sun Chuanting naturally understands this, but he doesn't think this is the best way.

He shook his head and said, "Hong Chengchou's troops are far superior to the generals, and it is not wrong to defend them before. Originally, he could have mobilized the local guard to assist in the siege, but he would not have done so. But he has led troops for many years, how can he be willing to spend time here? Even if he is willing, there are people in the court who do not agree! ”

Let him say this, Li Xiuwen also figured this out.

Yes, no matter how you say it, the Ming Dynasty has control over the taxes of various places, even if there is a financial problem, if you are determined to exterminate yourself, you can still levy some additional food and salary. Besides, according to the habits of Zhu Youzhen and those ministers, how could they not urge Hong Chengchou to go all out to fight?

Seeing that he nodded in agreement, Sun Chuanting continued: "There is another one, if the Huguang Rebellion subsides, Yang Sichang will have his hands empty, and he will march to the south of He1. When that time comes, we will be attacked on our backs, how can we resist the military might of the imperial court? ”

"That's what worries me the most."

Li Xiuwen nodded again. It is true that Li Xiuwen has always been wary of Yang Sichang, worried that the other party will come over at any time, causing him to be unable to rescue, so he left some troops in Kaifeng Mansion.

"So does the general have a solution?" Sun Chuanting asked.

"If I have a countermeasure, I won't stick to it here."

Li Xiuwen replied with a wry smile, and then asked, "Does Master Sun have a good plan?" ”

Although he was lucky to win two battles, he didn't feel how capable he was because of this, and when it came to the ability to march and fight, Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou could throw themselves several streets.

The previous victory over Sun Chuanting was not due to his ability to lead troops, but due to the military collapse of the Ming Dynasty.

His men and horses are well-armed, and after long-term training, he still has more troops than the other side, and he has nothing to be proud of if he wins.

Sun Chuanting nodded secretly, Li Xiuwen can win without being arrogant, which is very rare in his eyes.

In fact, he never thought that he would lose to Li Xiuwen before, and he was defeated so badly. In these days, he calmed down and thought about it carefully, and felt that he was not wronged when he lost.

Li Xiuwen occupies too many advantages, and the most important thing is that he does not fight on a mobile basis like other chaotic armies, and grabs wherever he wants, but really runs Kaifeng as his base camp. If you start a war with yourself around here, you don't have to worry about money and food at all.

In fact, in Sun Chuanting's eyes, Li Xiuwen's current soldiers and horses can indeed be called an elite division, although the number of troops is slightly less, but the vast majority of them are people who can really fight, but they have not been able to show real combat power under his command.

has such an army in his hands, but he doesn't know how to use it skillfully, this is Li Xiuwen's shortcoming.

Sun Chuanting also knew that Li Xiuwen did not have the ability to march and fight, and it was already very difficult to fight with himself.

Compared with many generals in the Ming Dynasty, those who can only eat empty salaries and are cowardly in battle do not know how much stronger.

The strategy that Sun Chuanting proposed to him was to start a head-on decisive battle with the Ming army!

Not only must you fight, but you must also fight fiercely, and strive to eat this army outside Cizhou City, so that you will have no worries.

Li Xiuwen underestimated his 20,000 people too much, Sun Chuanting injected him with a shot in the arm, and solemnly reiterated that the imperial court would definitely increase its troops, and if Hong Chengchou was not defeated at this time, the situation would likely change.

Li Xiuwen listened to his proposal and couldn't help but hesitate.

The decisive battle that Sun Chuanting said was not just to fight with Cizhou's troops, but to add another 20,000 horses and fight against the water!
