"Hahaha, Brother Zhao is really joking, the younger brother is a soldier who eats concubines, what big deal can he have, okay, since Brother Zhao is here, then the younger brother will come back in the evening, and the province will hinder Brother Zhao's eyes."

Seeing that Liu Ming turned around and was about to leave, Zhao Qi took a step forward suddenly, blocking in front of Liu Ming, and then leaned into his ear and whispered, "There is no big deal, Brother Liu is really talking nonsense with his eyes open, I don't know who put more than ten cars of illegal salt into the city in the middle of the night a few days ago, don't you think that everyone else is blind." ”

Hearing Zhao Qi's words, Liu Ming's originally high heart suddenly let go, for what Zhao Qi said about secretly letting smuggled salt into the city in the middle of the night, that was what Liu Ming did when he was on duty, in order to get in touch with some high-level officials of the Dashun Army.

If you don't know about the Dashun Army, I'm afraid you think that all the people of the Dashun Army are the same as Li Zicheng, born with mud legs, and they can't do anything other than fighting, which is a big mistake, you know, in the earliest days, these so-called rebels were indeed a group of peasants who forced the people to rebel because they couldn't eat enough.

But as they grow, there will gradually be some people of insight to join, like Niu Jinxing, Li Yan and others are this kind of people, of course, Xiang Niu Jinxing and Li Yan, who are in high positions, do not need to do this kind of reselling and smuggling business.

What is really needed is that those positions are not high, and there are officials who have taken refuge in Daming, these people because they can't get Li Zicheng's reuse, or in order to satisfy their own selfish desires, they collude with some speculative businessmen, so as to do some dark and lucrative business, and the reason why Liu Ming was able to raise his voice quickly in such a short period of time is to be a middleman for these people, so as to exchange for the trust of these people and get benefits.

If it was before, when Zhao Qi said these things, Liu Ming would still have some scruples, but thinking that the world was about to change here, how could Liu Ming care about this kind of thing.

Therefore, Liu Ming, who was relaxed, opened his mouth and said, "Oh, I thought it was something, it turned out to be this little thing, what, Brother Zhao also wants to make some benefits, it's easy to say, it's easy to say, next time there is such a good thing, the younger brother must be called the elder brother, okay, the younger brother still has important things, so I won't say much, say goodbye." After saying that, Liu Ming turned around and walked back.

Seeing Liu Ming with a smug expression, Zhao Qi's face was glowing with black light, and then he spit heavily on the ground, scolded in a low voice, 'villain has a will', and then walked back helplessly.

"How about it, second brother, there is no accident in the nightingale, you know, whether our actions for so many days can succeed depends on tonight, if there is an accident, not only will all the hard work of all of us be in vain for so many days, but there will even be greater danger." Standing in a secluded mountain col more than ten miles away from Xi'an City, Shi Lei asked Monkey Er on the side.

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates dare to guarantee that there will be no accidents in Xi'an City, since my lord proposed this plan, my subordinates have arranged several different plans, even if one plan goes wrong, there will be other plans, which can be completed." Monkey Er said calmly.

"Okay, that's good, whether our big thing can succeed depends on tonight's efforts, if things succeed, we will be like a dragon for nine days, if we fail, we will wait to kill ourselves!" Shi Lei said

Just when Shi Lei and they were playing the idea of Xi'an City, on the broad plains in the north of Shanxi, a pair of dusty Dashun troops were galloping rapidly, although everyone's expression was already extremely tired, but no one shouted tired, it can be seen that after years of fighting, the Dashun army has changed from the rogue who relied on numbers to win, into a regular army with rich experience, hard-working and good at long-distance running.

"My lord, my lord, it's not good, if we go on, I'm afraid that my brothers will not be able to bear it, if that happens, even if we really catch up with the Ming army, we will not be able to fight at all, in that case, we will be in danger, it is better to stop and rest!" Seeing the soldiers with tired expressions, a general finally spoke to Yuan Zongdi, who was leading the way in front.

Hearing the general's words, looking at the subordinates who gritted their teeth and held on, Yuan Zongdi finally stopped his horse, and then waved his hand to stop the army and rest in place.

It is no wonder that Yuan Zongdi is so eager, since he led his troops to withdraw from Yulin City, he has been looking for the Ming army everywhere in the entire northern Shaanxi, but what is the place in the northern part of Shaanxi, that is, the Hetao Plain that Halbat of Tumut wants to occupy day and night.

The fertile field here is thousands of miles, the terrain is flat, and the most suitable thing is large-scale cavalry operations, and in such a place, if you want to encircle and suppress a cavalry army, there are no hundreds of thousands of troops at all, and Yuan Zongdi's army, in addition to 10,000 cavalry, the remaining 20,000 people are infantry troops, which is also what Li Zicheng left behind to let them defend Xi'an City.

In this way, with the drag of 20,000 infantry troops, how could Yuan Zongdi chase an army with all horseback, but if he really wanted to give up the 20,000 infantry army and lead 10,000 cavalry, it would be impossible, Yuan Zongdi was not crazy enough to think that he could successfully exterminate this Ming army when the military strength was equal.

In this case, a few days passed, Yuan Zongdi and they were like a loyal dog's legs, following behind the Ming army, watching the Ming army in the north of Zhengshaan, capturing one state and county, but there was nothing they could do, although, because of their appearance, some states and counties had a glimmer of hope against the Ming army, but most of the states and counties were still broken by this Ming army.

Seeing that this Ming army was so presumptuous in front of him, Yuan Zongdi's lungs were about to explode, but when the conditions did not allow it, he had no choice but to get angry.

"My lord, the last general feels that the situation seems to be a little wrong, this Ming army seems to be deliberately taking us in circles, you see, just like Jingbian County we just passed, we have already been here three times, it stands to reason that in the face of us, this Ming army will either defeat us or flee, it is absolutely impossible to take us around in circles like now, so the last general feels that there may be fraud in this."

During the rest of the whole army, a thoughtful general came to Yuan Zongdi's side and said in a low voice.

Hearing the words of this general, Yuan Zongdi's eyes lit up, originally he felt that something was wrong in his heart these days, but in the face of the provocation of the Ming army, he was furious, and he didn't think about it carefully, and now after the general's reminder, he suddenly discovered this.

"Yes, no wonder I always think it's a little weird, but I haven't figured it out, as soon as you say this, I immediately understood, so tell me, what does this Ming army want to do, take us around like this, is it to drag us down and defeat us." Yuan Zongdi said.

"This point, the last general doesn't know, after all, the information we get now is really too little, we can't analyze their intentions at all, but we can't always be led by their noses like this, no matter what they want to do, we have to disrupt their steps, only in this way, can we take the initiative and push them to a dead end, so as to catch them all." The general said.

"Oh, yes, but you can see the current situation, with our speed, we can't catch up with those Ming troops at all, you see what we should do." Yuan Zongdi said.

"My lord, there will be a way in the end, although I don't know if it will work, but it is better to give it a try, if it is useful, it will be good for adults and all brothers." The general said.

"Oh, you can say it quickly, as long as it is useful, when the Ming army is completely wiped out, General Ben will definitely be rewarded." Yuan Zongdi said excitedly.

"My lord, the reason why we can't catch up with the Ming army now is because our speed is not as good as theirs, so we can separate the cavalry from the infantry army, use the speed advantage of the cavalry, force them into the direction we want them to go, and then let the infantry ambush in advance, so as to flank them back and forth, and completely annihilate them, even if there are fish that slip through the net, there is nothing big to do." The general said.

After listening to the general's analysis, Yuan Zongdi thought about it and agreed with his idea, after all, in the absence of any way, this is the best and only way, although there will be some losses or uncertain factors in the middle, but this is the price that must be paid.

Because, if the Ming army is allowed to make trouble, maybe the whole Shaanxi will have a change, when the time comes, Shaanxi chaos is a trivial matter, affecting the Dashun Army's Eastern Crusade, and even the stability of the Dashun Army, it is a big thing, if because of this matter, so that the plan of the Dashun Army's Eastern Crusade is defeated, then he Yuan Zongdi is the eternal sinner of the entire Dashun Kingdom and the Dashun Army, besides, the current Dashun Army is not an invincible existence in the world, and there is a Ming army opposite him. With Zhang Xianzhong, who crisscrossed the southwest.

After having a plan, Yuan Zongdi did not urge the soldiers, but after discussing with his generals, he took 10,000 cavalry to the distance, without the shackles of the infantry, the cavalry troops, soon caught up with the Ming army that had been running in front of them, and then, the two sides were like a race, one side ran desperately, one side chased after it, and did not fight, just rushed.
