Chapter 74: Marching into Ruzhou

As soon as he saw off the Zhu Wen brothers, he flew in and brought the military order for all the rebels to enter Ruzhou City.

Fang Chengtian was very surprised, and asked the herald: "Don't you want this Yang Zhai City?" ”

Unexpectedly, the herald said disdainfully: "After robbing the grain and catching the strong men, what is the use of this city?" With that, he hurried away.

Looking at the figure of the herald soldier in the distance, Fang Chengtian was completely stunned.

In his impression, isn't it just to let the people live a good life? Otherwise, how can it be called a rebel army? But now, after the righteous army captured the city, they didn't care about the lives of the people, burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil!

As the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, if the righteous army continues like this, I am afraid that in the end it will end up with the annihilation of the whole army.

No, I have to talk to the general.

Fang Chengtian had made a decision in his heart, so he no longer hesitated, and left the city directly with all the soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion.

He thought that the people would feel panicked because he had left with the army and the city was defenseless, but he didn't want them to hear the faint cheers from the city before they could get out of the sight of Yangzhai City.

Fang Chengtian took more than 3,000 soldiers from the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, all the way to the west, training while walking, and finally found Wang Xianzhi's army at dusk.

Wang Xianzhi looked tired, frowned, and was looking at the marching map on the table to ponder, he was originally looking like a torch, but at this moment he had two dark circles under his eyes, and his tall figure had become a little rickety, if it weren't for the extraordinary power on his body, I am afraid that he would not be able to see that he was a hero.

Seeing Fang Chengtian hurriedly looking for him, he must have something important, so he hurriedly invited Fang Chengtian to sit down next to him, and said with a smile: "Brother Fang, you are in such a hurry to find me, but what is the matter?" ”

Fang Chengtian picked up the teacup on the table, drank it all, nodded and said, "Brother Wang, let's go on like this, it's not okay!" ”

Wang Xianzhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, and said, "Brother Fang, don't worry, what is this?" Let's be clear. ”

Fang Chengtian exhaled a long breath, calmed down, and said slowly: "Brother Wang, as the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, now every time our righteous army captures a city, they burn, kill and loot in the city, do all kinds of evil, and if it goes on like this, it will lose the hearts of the people and lose morality!" The name of the rebels will one day be destroyed in our own hands. ”

"Hey~~~" Wang Xianzhi let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile, "Brother Fang, what you said, the eldest brother knows it, but the eldest brother has no way to ......"

The lord of the army actually said that there was no way to be happy?! Fang Chengtian couldn't help frowning, and said suspiciously: "Brother Wang, isn't it up to you to decide this righteous army?" ”

"Naturally, the eldest brother has the final say, but ......" Wang Xianzhi sighed again, "What the people on General Huang's side said to the eldest brother ......" said, looking unspeakable.

Fang Chengtian gritted his teeth and said, "Yang Feng Yin is violated, right?" ”

Wang Xianzhi glanced at him, sighed lightly, and nodded, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

Fang Chengtian stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and muttered, "Since the eldest brother and General Huang don't get along, why do you have to be together?" We can fight the world by ourselves! ”

Wang Xianzhi was stunned, shook his head, and sighed: "It's late, it's late." ”

Fang Chengtian said suspiciously: "It's late?" ”

"Not bad!" Wang Xianzhi nodded and said slowly, "That Huang Chao is extremely ambitious, and his ambition is not to return the people to a blue sky, but to overthrow the imperial court and become the emperor!" In order to achieve this goal, he does things by unscrupulous means and does not pay attention to morality at all......"

As he spoke, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a light shot out of his eyes.

"What he said was just hypocrisy! It's a pity that they can't understand it, they can't understand it......"

After speaking, he clenched his teeth, and his cheeks trembled.

Who are they? Fang Chengtian was suspicious, and was about to ask, when Wang Xianzhi spoke again.

"Although that Huang Chao is commensurate with my brother, he is not willing to live under others, and has long begun to buy people's hearts behind the back of his eldest brother, and by the time the eldest brother notices, it will be ......too late," he said, and his expression became gloomy.

Fang Chengtian's face was shocked, and he frowned: "Brother Wang, is there no room for redemption?" ”

Wang Xianzhi sighed again: "Even this attack on Ruzhou was proposed by Huang Chao, the eldest brother didn't want to attack Ruzhou, but as soon as the eldest brother put forward his idea, he was advised by the soldiers...... It is better to say that it is to admonish, but it is better to say that it is opposed! ”

Fang Chengtian muttered: "I see, I thought that the attack on Ruzhou was an order from you, eldest brother, but I didn't want to have any hidden secrets!" ”

Wang Xianzhi shook his head and said: "Now that the imperial court knows that the eldest brother is still alive, he has replaced Song Wei with Wang Duo as the camp of Zhudao to recruit grass thieves, and ordered Cao Xiang to make Zhaoyi Jiedu, Li Fu to make Shannan Dongdao Jiedu, Li Kan to make Suining Jiedu, and Fengxiang Jiedu to order Fox and Horse to guard the main road, and it is really risky to attack our army, and it is really risky to march into Ruzhou, and if we are not careful, our army will be besieged by the Tang army." ”

If you are surrounded by enemy troops, it is quite dangerous, Fang Chengtian has studied military books since he was a child, and he still understands this truth, and he can't help asking: "Doesn't General Huang know?" ”

Wang Xianzhi smiled bitterly: "It's not that he doesn't know, but he wants to gamble!" ”

"Bet?" Fang Chengtian was shocked, this march and battle can be dead, how can it be used for gambling?

Wang Xianzhi's eyes widened, and he said in a deep voice: "Yes, he wants to rush to Ruzhou before Li Fu's 2,000-step cavalry from the Shannan Dongdao Jiedu to capture Ruzhou, and then march to Luoyang, the eastern capital!" ”

"Attack Luoyang!" Fang Chengtian took a sharp breath, this Huang Chao's courage is really a little big, and his target is probably not Luoyang, but the capital Chang'an!

However, now that the military order has been issued, the attack on Ruzhou is probably a foregone conclusion. Fang Chengtian gritted his teeth and asked, "Brother Wang, what do you think our chances of winning this attack on Ruzhou City are?" ”

"Come with Big Brother!" Wang Xianzhi glanced at him, got up and walked to the table, pointed to the marching map on the table, and said, "Brother Fang, you see, Ruzhou is here, there is an army of Zhaoyi Jiedu in the north, an army of Shannan Dongdao Jiedu in the south, and an army of Jining and Fengxiang Jiedu in the west......

As he spoke, his fingers moved, and finally his fingers fell to the east of Ruzhou, and he said in a deep voice: "And in the east, Song Wei is leading Huainan, Zhongwu, Xuanwu, Yicheng, and Tianping Jiedu to make the five-way army come!" If we can't capture Ruzhou before they gather and evacuate quickly, then we are likely to be in a predicament! ”

Fang Chengtian's gaze slowly swept over the map, nodded, and said, "It's really dangerous!" ”

Unexpectedly, Wang Xianzhi suddenly smiled and said in a low voice: "But the eldest brother has an idea, maybe he can solve the predicament!" ”

Fang Chengtian's eyes widened, and his gaze fell on his face suddenly.
