Although Liu Zongmin's words were vulgar, Li Zicheng not only did not blame him, but boasted, "Hahaha, okay, what this king wants is this momentum, with this momentum, why don't we worry about not being able to beat Beijing." ”

Speaking of this, Li Zicheng didn't know what he thought, the smile on his face was closed, and he asked, "By the way, do you know where the traitor Hao Shaoqi is now, this king asked him to lead his troops to attack a small Yulin City, more than 20,000 people not only did not fight down, but also wiped out the whole army, which is really a shame for us to break into the army." ”

Hearing Li Zicheng's question, everyone in the hall was silent for a long time, and seeing this situation, Niu Jinxing got up and said, "King, since the defeat of Hao Shaoqi's army, no one has seen him, some people say that he was captured, and some people say that he has escaped, no one knows." ”

"Hmph, rice bucket, less and less successful, order, anyone who finds Hao Shaoqi, there is no forgiveness, and, what is going on in that Yulin City, although Hao Shaoqi is a rice bucket, but 20,000 people, even if it is gnawed, he can be gnawed, why, this situation will occur." After hearing Niu Jinxing's words, Li Zicheng snorted angrily.

can also blame him for this, since Shangluo Mountain, he Li Zicheng is smooth sailing, in just a few years of big battles and small battles, fought countless battles, the Ming army is to lose their armor, and flee, even the once invincible Northwest Army, from Sun Chuanting to the following 100,000 troops, was also annihilated by him, and now occupies Xi'an, which can be described as prestigious, never defeated.

But what he didn't expect was that he was actually lost by Hao Shaoqi, a guy who was not successful enough to lose more than anything, if he met a famous opponent, it would be okay, but he was actually defeated in a small Yulin City, and the opponent was a person who had never even heard of it, how could this not make the arrogant King Chuang feel uncomfortable in his heart?

"Uncle, please calm his anger for the time being, Hao Shaoqi is not on the wall, and if he is defeated, he will be defeated, to deal with a small Yulin, the nephew only needs 3,000 children's soldiers, and he will definitely be completely flattened, and he will come to offer his uncle the head of Shi Lei." Seeing the anger on Li Zicheng's face, a young general stood up from the side and opened his mouth to fight.

This young general is called Li Guo, and he is the son of Li Zicheng's brother Li Zijing, because Li Zicheng has no heirs so far, so he is regarded as a young master by the top and bottom of the army, and he can be regarded as a young Zhuang faction in the middle of the army.

Seeing the young and vigorous Li Guo, Li Zicheng's face couldn't help but soften a little, waved his hand to let him sit down, and then said, "Guo'er has such a heroic spirit, worthy of being a good man of my Li family, but, sometimes we have to pay attention to the opponent, not to mention anything else, that Yulin City and that Shi Lei, since they have the ability to wipe out Hao Shaoqi's 20,000 troops, they must still have some ability, so even if they want to attack, they must send enough troops to strive to take him down in one fell swoop. ”

"Then, my lord, if I don't bring troops over to Yulin, you must know that there is a grassland outside Yulin, and when the time comes, after Yulin is laid, if you don't make the corresponding arrangements, maybe the Mongolian Tartars will see that it is cheap, and if they take the opportunity to enter, it will be enough for us to have a headache." For Li Zicheng's understanding, it still belongs to Liu Zongmin, although Liu Zongmin usually looks very aggressive, but in the military, he has a natural sensitivity.

"Well, it's okay, since that's the case," hearing Liu Zongmin's words, Li Zicheng was about to agree, when he suddenly heard a voice from the side, "Wait a minute, my subordinates have something to say." ”

This shout interrupted Li Zicheng's words, and suddenly, everyone in the hall stared at the person who shouted, and seeing everyone's eyes focused on him, Niu Jinxing's face couldn't help but burst into a trace of sweat, although he scolded Shi Lei half to death in his heart, he still opened his mouth to explain.

It's not that Niu Jinxing wants to stay in Yulin, on the contrary, he now wants Li Zicheng to send an army to demolish Yulin City and tear down that Shi Lei, but he just thinks about it, at least, at this stage, he can only think about it, because his precious only son is still in Yulin City, and he is still in the hands of that Shi Lei.

Not long ago, Niu Jinxing received a letter from Yulin City from his son Niu Zhilu, after receiving the letter, Niu Jinxing was still very excited, after all, his son is still alive, it is better than anything, through the letter, he also knows that his son is now living in Yulin is not bad, if it is just like this, there is nothing, but the next situation, but Niu Jinxing is both angry and helpless, angry that Shi Lei also wrote him a letter, probably meaning that your son is now with us, we will definitely entertain well, But there is a prerequisite, that is, Yulin City is fine, if something happens to Yulin City, or if it faces an attack by soldiers, then I'm sorry, his son will be the first victim.

After reading this letter, Niu Jinxing angrily threw a few teacups in a row, but after being angry, he found that he had no choice but to obediently listen to Shi Lei's words and not let Yulin City face danger, and now there will be any danger in Yulin City, that is, the attack of the army.

"King, a remote place in Yulin City, for us is like a turtle in an urn, we can take him down at any time, but it is not suitable to use troops at present." Niu Jinxing said.

"Oh, what could be more important than eliminating the rebels." Li Zicheng said in a skeptical tone.

Hearing Li Zicheng's words, Niu Jinxing was not only not nervous, but said with a smile, "King, since we captured Xijing, the world has been shaken, and the king has made a program and formulated regulations, so that all the people in the world can be seen, but the people have recognized us now, but there is still a group of people who have not recognized us, and even continue to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, in this case, can the king turn a blind eye?" ”

"There is still a group of people who continue to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, who, who." Hearing Niu Jinxing's words, Li Zicheng suddenly said in surprise.

Not only Li Zicheng, but all the high-ranking officials in the hall were surprised in their hearts, you know, the current army is a crowd of thousands of people, welcome everywhere, how can there be a group of people who are still loyal to the Ming Dynasty?

Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, Niu Jinxing said even more proudly, "Scholars, the king should know that in all dynasties, whoever can get the world is not necessarily the most powerful, but he is the one who can get the hearts of the people, what is the heart of the people, the heart of the scholars is also, and only by really getting the heart of the scholars can he get the hearts of all the people in the world, so that he can go to the old and establish the new and create a new world." ”

Niu Jinxing's words made some people not understand, but most people still understood, especially the military advisors Song Xiance and Li Yan, after they listened to Niu Jinxing's words, they suddenly seemed to be enlightened, both of them were annoyed, regretting that they didn't think of this.

For Niu Jinxing's words, Li Zicheng also understood, and at the same time his heart was also shaken, to say that Li Zicheng is actually a scholar, of course, he can recognize the words add up to three digits, but it was by virtue of this that he became a pawn, and then, after he rebelled, there were Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance, Li Yan and other people, after Xiucai took refuge, it made him realize that the huge role of scholars, so when he heard that he had not yet been recognized by the scholar class, He immediately became anxious.

'Pedal Pedal'

Lifting his legs and walking down from the dragon chair, Li Zicheng came to Niu Jinxing, and said excitedly, "Zuo Fu, since you can see this, do you already have a countermeasure, hurry, tell this king, what is the best way." ”

Seeing Li Zicheng with a hopeful look in his eyes, Niu Jinxing's heart couldn't help laughing, this time not only successfully blocked Li Zicheng's plan to pacify Yulin, thus saving his son's life, but also deepened his position in Li Zicheng's heart, so that Niu Jinxing suddenly became a little proud.

"King, if you want to collect the hearts of scholars, there is only one way to go, that is, to hold the imperial examination, so that not only can we gather the hearts of the world's scholars, recruit more talents for us to break into the army, but also allow the people of the world to completely change their understanding of us, so as to completely hit the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, as long as we can successfully hold the imperial examination, then from now on, the Ming Dynasty will not be the right place in the world." Niu Jinxing said.

"The imperial examination, the imperial examination, good, good, it is really a good suggestion, the order, the same day to spread to the world, at the end of the month to open the examination, all successful in the lift, will be hired as appropriate."

When Li Zicheng's order, with the flying horse spread all over the world, in an instant, a huge wave was set off in the entire land of China, this wave was not expected by everyone, even after Li Zicheng conquered Xi'an, there was no big wave caused by this order.

People who are loyal to the Ming Dynasty have angrily reprimanded it, and people who have never met them are happy, but more are looking at the momentum of the army, and want to seek advancement, for a while, the originally somewhat dilapidated Xi'an City, instantly restored its former glory.

And when the news reached Beijing, Chongzhen, who got the news, was as if he had been beaten internally, vomiting blood, and then, he was even more angry and killed several high-ranking officials, because he knew that Li Chuang's opening of the department this time was like a bucket of cold water poured on a pot of charcoal fire, completely cutting off the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, although, in the face of such a situation, Chongzhen was eager to send troops to kill Li Zicheng, but looking around, Chongzhen sadly found that he had no soldiers to send, and no one was available.
