The day of the attack is just around the corner, the actions along the way are very secretive, 100,000 troops came to Xi'an Mansion from Hanzhong Mansion and Fengxiang Mansion, but they were not discovered by the government and officials, Gao Yingxiang felt that God was helping him.

He discussed with Li Zicheng for several days about the arrangements and ideas for this battle, and Li Zicheng was completely in favor of conducting such a battle, and he also put forward specific opinions on the arrangement of troops, and the most important suggestion was to mobilize Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng, who were still in Fengxiang Mansion, to participate in this attack.

The 300,000 army, which really has good combat effectiveness, that is, about 100,000 people, the sergeants controlled by Gao Yingxiang are full of 100,000 people, and the old departments of Zijin Liang, Lao Huihui, Zhang Xianzhong and others have all been absorbed by him, and most of the sergeants with combat effectiveness are also under his command, and the 40,000 sergeants brought out this time are not the strongest in combat effectiveness, Gao Yingxiang himself thinks that this attack is just a formality, and he does not think about how many casualties he will cause to Jiangning.

The main purpose of such a campaign is probably for the cleansing of the rebels.

The Jiangning battalion came to Shaanxi, the purpose is very clear, the rebel army will never wait for death, will not wait in Shaanxi, and the Jiangning battalion will start a decisive battle, or rush out of Shaanxi.

Through a period of investigation, Gao Yingxiang also discovered a secret, that is, the troops of the imperial courts in various parts of Shaanxi, after learning that the Jiangning battalion was coming to Shaanxi, they generally relaxed, put more emphasis on sticking to the strongholds and cities, gave up control over the official roads and some fortresses, and seemed to be waiting for the Jiangning battalion to solve all the problems.

This was an opportunity, and if the rebels seized this opportunity, they would be able to leave Shaanxi and develop towards Shanxi and Henan. If it is an attack on the Jiangning battalion this time. If it was able to disrupt all the deployments of the Jiangning battalion, the rebels took this opportunity to leave Shaanxi and move to Shanxi, which was a great victory.

To that end, of course. It is necessary to unify command and resolutely exclude those leaders who do not obey orders.

Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng, who have been active in Fengxiang Mansion, have become the first targets that need to be cleaned up.

Gao Yingxiang also understood that the number of the rebel army was not the decisive factor, and the focus was still on the need for capable sergeants, for example, the Jiangning battalion, which originally had only 30,000 people, but repeatedly won victories in battles. Therefore, Gao Yingxiang didn't care much about the loss of some sergeants in this cleanup.

As long as the command can be unified, as long as the officers and officers in the righteous army are all obeying the command, then there is a chance to continue to develop and grow, even if it is a temporary setback. The problem is not very big either.

Of course, Gao Yingxiang also has things to worry about. That is Luo Rucai and Li Zicheng, these two have their own characteristics, but they can both replace their own leadership, Li Zicheng is his nephew, fighting tiger brothers, father and son soldiers. Always rest assured, Luo Rucai is a very smart person, and he is insidious and cunning, and he must deal with it seriously.

There is a mess in my head. At a time when the big war is imminent, this is not a good situation.

Gao Yingxiang forced himself to calm down, he didn't think about those things anymore, he wanted to urge Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng to attack.

The 100,000 army, divided into two armies in the front and rear, the distance between each other, but only five miles, will be launched tomorrow, if Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng have any other ideas, it is not a good thing.

When the soldiers took Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng into the tent, Gao Yingxiang had a smile on his face.

"General Li, General Liu, the attack is going to be launched at night, this time, I have worked hard for you, I have prepared a banquet, I wish you a great victory, you must remember, hold on for two hours, from the hour to the hour, I will lead the brothers, will launch a second wave of attacks in the hour."

Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng pretended to be calm, but they had ghosts in their hearts, and their expressions were not very natural.

This situation is very delicate, Gao Yingxiang didn't expect that the two would secretly return to the court, the expressions of the two were a little weird, and the actions were not very natural, in his opinion, was the two of them a little resentful about this arrangement, or did they find something, Liu Guoneng often contacted He Yilong, the two were sneaky, He Yilong was a little dissatisfied with Li Zicheng, and there was some connection between him and Luo Rucai.

If his prediction is accurate, it means that there is already a restless force in the ranks of the rebels, and when the opportunity comes, this contradiction will inevitably erupt.

After the three of them sat down, all the pro-soldiers withdrew from the city, and Gao Yingxiang personally raised the wine jug and poured wine for the two.

"Two brothers, we haven't drunk like this for a long time, alas, since this time, there have been too many things, plus you have been moving around Fengxiang Mansion, there is not much time to Hanzhong Mansion, and the time to get together is naturally a lot less, and it is about to crusade against Jiangning Camp, it must be a vicious battle, the brothers below, the loss must be very large, to be honest, I am still a little worried, Zijin Liang, Lao Huihui and Zhang Xianzhong are all lost under the command of Jiangning Camp, so this time, We still have to focus on preserving our own strength. ”

Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng didn't understand the meaning, the 100,000 army had come here, and in less than a day, they were about to start fighting, at such a critical moment, Gao Yingxiang would say such words, could it be said that Gao Yingxiang felt something, or that he was aware of something.

Gao Yingxiang raised the wine bowl, and the three of them drank the first bowl of wine in one go.

"Alas, in fact, I've been thinking about it, you see, for more than a year, the rebels have been operating in Shaanxi, and the situation has become very difficult, if you can't quickly kill out of the gang and open up new strongholds, the outcome is unpredictable, you are in Fengxiang Mansion, most of the time you rely on yourself to supply, you should experience the difficulty, the rebels have a total of 300,000 sergeants, such a huge team, if you want to make a living, it's too difficult, the family money you saved before is basically going to be eaten up, and the next few days, I don't know how to maintain it. ”

Li Yichuan felt that he should say something, and Gao Yingxiang's meaning seemed to be asking him to express his position.

"Dashuai, I think that the righteous army has been maintained for so many years, and now is not the most difficult time, I must be able to think of a very good way, if the marshal has any arrangements, even if he orders, Brother Liu and I will definitely support it."

Gao Yingxiang shook his head and continued to speak.

"The leader of this rebel army, it's really not good to be a good one, to take care of all the brothers, but also to worry about everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation, there are too many problems, if you don't think about the future of the brothers, I really don't want to do it, I have been raising the army for so many years, I don't know how many winds and waves Lu Dao has experienced, but some brothers, just can't understand, always look at the interests in front of them, I see, this situation, continue, the rebels have no hope."

Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng finally understood the meaning, the two of them looked better, as long as they returned to the imperial court and were not exposed, everything was easy to say. Now that the arrow is ready to be fired, there can be no mistakes.

Next, the two met Gao Yingxiang, no matter what Gao Yingxiang said, the two agreed, and their attitudes became very sincere, even Gao Yingxiang felt strange, he had never seen the two so cheerful before.

After drinking to the fullest, Gao Yingxiang finally said the most important thing.

"Two brothers, I have seriously thought about it, tomorrow's attack in the early hours of the morning, it is still very dangerous, accidents may occur at any time, until now, we can not retreat, only to attack hard, I hope God can bless, let us win, just now we talked heart-to-heart, said a lot of things, the two brothers support me so much, I am very happy, so, tomorrow's attack, you still don't come to the front line, stay by my side, wait until the brothers open up the situation, we charge together, kill him a falling flower……”

Before Gao Yingxiang finished speaking, Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng's faces changed.

Such an arrangement, they never expected, if the two of them stayed by Gao Yingxiang's side, they would not be able to command the army, and the matter of returning to the imperial court was just empty words, think about it, 50,000 people would not be killed to launch a charge, and the Jiangning battalion would do it with real swords and guns, what would Su Tiancheng think.

Because the matter of returning to the imperial court must be kept secret, only a very small number of henchmen know about it, and such a thing will definitely not dare to take a large-scale walk.

Li Yichuan spoke first.

"Marshal, this arrangement is not appropriate, these sergeants have always followed me from birth to death, such a critical battle, I can't participate in the command, but hide behind, I'm afraid the sergeant is uncomfortable in his heart, he hasn't started to fight, he has damaged his own ambition, Brother Liu and the sergeant led by me, there are 50,000 people, a little careless, there may be a collapse."

What Li Yichuan said was very serious, if 50,000 people collapsed, let alone any offensive in the future, this expedition would be a complete failure.

Liu Guoneng didn't speak, and Li Yichuan said everything that should be said.

"No, the two brothers are too worried, you can arrange the officer to command, you follow my side, in case something happens, you can deal with it."

Gao Yingxiang didn't send anyone to command, which is already very good.

Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng knew that they couldn't refuse.

At this time, Liu Guoneng finally spoke.

"Marshal, this matter is very important, even if we do it according to the marshal's requirements, we must rush back to arrange it, otherwise, the officers and sergeants don't know, and it may be a big deal."

Gao Yingxiang nodded, the reason that Liu Guoneng said was still good, and the arrangement was a must.

"It's okay, I'll send a few personal soldiers to follow you, hurry up and arrange the arrangement, I'll wait for you here." (To be continued......)
