Chapter 89: Dedication to the City
readx;?β Answer me! β
Seeing Kong He trembling and speechless, Zhu Changyuan couldn't help but raise his voice. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Yes, General!" Kong He didn't know why, the general was so angry this time, his head was on the ground and he trembled and said: "Although the self-formed troops are as vulnerable as Zhang Xianzhong's soldiers, they are fighting to the death, unless they retreat, and no one escapes." β
"Hmm!" Zhu Changyuan's voice softened a little.
That's the key.
No one escaped.
A team like Zhang Xianzhong fought against 100,000 with 200,000, but it took half a day to defeat it in one fell swoop, but that is not to say how many people Zhu Changyuan killed and how many soldiers he beheaded.
It was because the enemy fled that he was given a chance.
However, Li Zicheng's army will not run away, joining and fighting with such a team is 30,000 or 50,000 people, and killing people alone can exhaust you, can this battle be fought?
The point is, the soldiers on the other side are all helpless ordinary people!
"Knowing that you are a soldier of your own, why would you rather die than run?" Zhu Changyuan returned to his seat and sat down again, and said.
"The subordinates are ignorant and don't know!" Kong He replied.
"That's because, only by following Zicheng and following King Chuang, can they have food to eat, so that they will not starve to death. As for running away? Zhu Changyuan sneered, "Hmph, where can they go?" In Shaanxi, with a territory of thousands of miles, there is no place to eat, and they know very well that they will either die in battle or starve to death! β
As for what Li Zicheng will have food, hehe, kill the landlord, kill the king of Ming, and rob the official mansion; Also, in the most helpless situation, he can take food from people on the spot, eat r, people r!
"Subordinates are ignorant!" Kong He said that he was stupid, but in fact, he was quite unimpressed in his heart.
Zhu Changyuan understands this. I also know what Kong He is thinking now: Isn't it just to make contributions? Isn't it just to make a name for yourself?
However, now is the time to pour cold water on his generals and soldiers.
"It's not ignorance, you're being carried away by victory!" Zhu Changyuan snorted coldly. He asked, "Let me ask you, what is the first military rule on our Sun Moon Island?" β
Kong He replied respectfully: "It's obedience, the general said." It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders! β
"What the general said, is it an order?" Zhu Changyuan asked again.
"If you are a prince, it is an iron order for your subordinates!"
"Hmm!" Zhu Changyuan paced around the room, thought for a while, and said, "At first, I was going to make peace with myself, but were you dissatisfied?" β
Kong He took two deep breaths, thought he was right, and said: "Subordinate, subordinate just thinks that he is a thief." can break it in one fell swoop, subordinatesγγγγγγ β
"But I'm not convinced!" Zhu Changyuan raised his hand to interrupt his ramblings, and couldn't help but raise his voice and ask.
"Subordinate, subordinate don't dare!" What can Kong He say, even if he has just disagreed with the general to the left, but now, he dares to say that he is not convinced?
"That's good!" Zhu Changyuan patted the table, his face was grim, and asked, "I am the military regulations of Sun Moon Island, and I don't obey military orders." What is the crime? β
"For the first offense, the rod will be punished sixty!"
"Thou shalt be the commander of an army, and thou shalt go out and receive a hundred and twenty rods. Let's talk about the rest. β
"Yes!" Kong He stood up with a bang, bowed to Zhu Changyuan, and then exited the door respectfully.
As Kong He went out, Zhu Changyuan followed.
In the face of 200 soldiers, Hao did not hesitate to take out the big horn in the system. said to everyone: "Kong He disobeys the military order, and the general will set an example, from today onwards, but those who propose to fight on their own will be beheaded!" β
"Execution!"
With an order, he got a military staff and hit Kong He's P shares.
One time!
Twice!
Three clicks!

In Chang'an City, Li Zicheng laughed.
However, he sneered, looked at Hu Jialin in front of him, and said: "Good Zhu Changyuan, his appetite is not small, he asked this king for 100,000 taels of silver when he opened his mouth, and he was not afraid of his teeth!" β
Hu Jialin bowed down to Li Zicheng and asked: "Zhu Changyuan only has more than 200 people, if we do our best to complete the whole army in one battle, we will definitely be able to get rid of this trouble!" β
Hu Jialin and Li Zicheng's intimate subordinates, when they heard Zhu Changyuan's lion open his mouth for 100,000 taels of silver for the first time, he was naturally distressed, but he was not to blame for this!
"Humph!" Li Zicheng snorted coldly, turned his head abruptly, and asked a thin black old man in the corner of the main hall, "Military advisor, what do you think of this?" β
Li Zicheng's military advisor, a dark and thin old man, looked to be about fifty years old, opened his eyes and arched his hand towards Li Zicheng, his eyes were resolute, and said, "Give it to him!" β
"To him?" Li Zicheng frowned and asked questioningly: "The military salary is not easy to come by, why do you want to give him Zhu Changyuan?" β
"Dare to ask the king!" The military advisor stood up, walked to the middle of the main hall, bowed his hand to Li Zicheng, and then bowed down, saying, "Real money is precious, but what is the use of it now? β
Yes, there is no grain in the whole of Shaanxi, even if there is gold and silver, can you buy grain?
Of course not, if you can buy it, you can grab it directly, why buy him, as for gold and silver, there is no big use for it at the moment.
was said by the military advisor, Li Zicheng's face improved a lot.
Standing up with his tall body, he took a deep breath, a smile appeared on his red face, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, just give it to him!" Then, he showed a wisp of ruthlessness and said, "However, this king can't just swallow this breath, go, and see how I clean him up when I turn around." β
"The king is wise!" The military advisor took a deep look.
"The military advisor is really my brainstorm!" Li Zicheng walked down the steps with a smile, patted the military advisor's shoulder, and said, "I also have to bother the military advisor to run to Zhu Changyuan's army, escort 100,000 taels of silver to him, and explore his reality by the way!" β
"Song obeys!"
Li Zicheng's military advisor, whose name is Song Xiance, is his right-hand man, his minister, and one of the few literati in his army.
In other words, this Song Xiance is a fortune teller.
However, the origin is not a problem, the question is whether the person has talent and strategy. To put it bluntly, the seemingly thin old man in front of him is actually deeply hidden, and many of Li Zicheng's strategies are from him!
"And!" Li Zicheng turned back. Chao Manchu Wenwu frowned and said: "Zhu Changyuan came this time, it is impossible to be exposed in the wilderness for a long time, and he must find a place to stay, but Shaanxi, especially Qinchuan, is in my hands. What do you think he will do? β
"King!" A middle-aged man in white in his forties, with a long figure and a rather graceful appearance, stood up, saluted Li Zicheng, and then said: "King, Weichen suggests that Huazhou City be ceded to Zhu Changyuan first, and then slowly Tuzhi!" β
"No!" Song Xiance walked to the door, and suddenly heard someone behind him giving King Chuang a bad idea, so he quickly ran back and said, "King." The city is the foundation of life, and at that time, to take Huazhou City, it was at the cost of the names of countless soldiers, how could it be easy to deal with people? The subordinates believe that Niu Venus has ill intentions and should be punished! β
It stands to reason that Niu Jinxing recommended him to Li Zicheng's account back then, but Song Xiance also understood that Niu Jinxing was the kind of narrow-minded person who couldn't work together!
"Song Junshi's words are wrong!" Niu Jinxing looked at Song Xiance. smiled slightly, and said to Li Zicheng: "Zhu Changyuan is the best at attacking cities, and he has no place to live, so he will choose a city to attack." Or Chang'an or Weinan, the king thinks, Chang'an and Weinan are all big cities, occupying Guanzhong to rush, no matter which city is lost, it is not good, so. His subordinates suggested that it was better to simply take Huazhou City with him, this so-called sacrifice of the small and the big! β
"No!" Song Xiance said: "I don't talk to, Zhu Changyuan wants to take, it is his rude betrayal of the covenant first, and in the future, he will meet each other, and he can also grasp the initiative and turn the disadvantage into an advantage, but once he is given... β
"Say no more." Li Zicheng waved his hand, organized Song Xiance to continue, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered: "According to what Niu Aiqing said, give Huazhou City to Zhu Changyuan, so that not only will this henchman be temporarily stabilized, but he will also be driven out of Guanzhong, and King Rong will clean him up later." β
Song Xiance was helpless, although what Niu Jinxing said made sense, but he always felt that something was wrong, but since the king had given the order, he couldn't resist, after all, after living for so many years, he was used to seeing many things.
With 100,000 taels of silver, as well as another big gift from Li Zicheng to Zhu Changyuan, Song Xiance walked towards Zhu Changyuan's military camp.
On the way, he finally remembered what was wrong with Niu Jinxing's advice!
Momentum!
is the momentum, Zhu Changyuan extorted 100,000 taels of silver, it was a forced delaying tactic, but now, Niu Jinxing offered a plan to give him the city, which showed that Li Zicheng's small group was afraid.
It's just that some people were scared after hearing that Zhu Changyuan came to Shaanxi.
If this matter spreads to the three armies tomorrow, Song Xiance can be sure that the morale of all the sergeants will drop to a new level.
Unlike Song Xiance's worries, Zhu Changyuan was overjoyed when he heard the news.
For Mao, he was not prepared to be tough with Li Zicheng at all, and he also thought about going to northern Shaanxi or Hanzhong to get a remote place to garrison troops first, and then advance the encroachment one by one, planning to solve Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai and others in three years.
Unexpectedly, I didn't expect that Li Zicheng would personally send a small city to Lao Wei.
Although Huazhou City is not big, it is finally a county under its jurisdiction, and there is Weishui passing through the border, which is an ideal base of first-class, so that his great cause of appeasement can be completed in advance.
"King Chuang is really generous." Zhu Changyuan touched the boxes of silver and smiled, although these silver were just dispensable property for him, maybe the operating income of the Beijing Ajiu Commercial Bank in a month was more than that, but the 100,000 taels of silver were necessary.
This is for Emperor Chongzhen, look, brother doesn't need you to give money, just beat Li Zicheng's autumn wind.
"Broken! Find someone, go back and report to the imperial court, and say that Ben will loot 100,000 taels of silver, Huazhou City, and ask the Son of Heaven how to dispose of this silver? β
Although he has long said that he has the right to dispose of the looting funds, it is good and good to report to Chongzhen more! (To be continued.) )
