Gao Yingxiang felt more and more that something was wrong, and he didn't know where he got this feeling from, he had been fighting for so many years, he had experienced too many winds and waves, life and death had long been put aside, and he had seen through life and death, what else was terrible.

Although there is still a lot of disunity and contradictions within the Righteous Army, and some struggles will even pay the price of blood, Gao Yingxiang always believes that the Righteous Army will be able to succeed and achieve its own goals.

For Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Yingying, Gao Yingxiang has a very strange opinion, this is an inexplicable view, Su Tiancheng is welcomed by the people in any place, think about the mess of Henan Mansion, in just over a year, it has regained its vitality, the people have become rich, and the rebels dare not go to Henan Mansion at all. To tell the truth, if it weren't for Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying's strong defense line in Henan Mansion, the righteous army would have rushed out of Shaanxi a long time ago.

Sneak attack on the Jiangning battalion, Gao Yingxiang does not have absolute confidence, this is very different from the last time to encircle and annihilate the Ming army led by Hong Chengchou, after all, the combat effectiveness of the Jiangning battalion is too strong, not the 100,000 righteous army led by himself can deal with, the battle of Fengyang, the central capital, Gao Yingxiang will never forget.

However, in the middle of this process, Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng's emotions were a little wrong.

It is said that after they know that they are going to take the lead, they should show their anger, after all, the taste of being cannon fodder is not comfortable, which indicates a major sacrifice, and the 50,000 sergeants led by the two will first fight against the powerful Jiangning battalion. No matter what strategy you adopt, you can't avoid significant losses.

The leaders of the battalions of the rebel army rely on the sergeants below, and the stronger the combat effectiveness, the greater the right to speak among the rebels, in this case. No one wants their sergeants to sacrifice too much.

Gao Yingxiang even thought that the sergeant led by himself, after suffering a fiasco in the central capital, returned to Shaanxi, and lacked the right to speak, if it wasn't for the secret gathering of strength, and later defeated the Ming army led by He Renlong in one fell swoop, I don't know if Lu Dao will have today's status.

The struggle was certainly brutal. Wang Jiayin, the earliest recognized leader of the rebel army, was also killed by his subordinates when the war was unfavorable, and later Zijin Liang gathered the rest of the rebel army and became the new leader of the rebel army.

For so many years, the competition for the leader of the rebel army has never stopped, and everyone believes in strength. Whoever is the strongest can be the leader.

Gao Yingxiang sat quietly in the tent. Waiting for news from Li Wanqing.

The time for the attack was approaching, and Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng did not come to their side for a long time.

The two officers entered the tent, and they were specially sent by Gao Yingxiang. One of the officers spoke.

"Dashuai, my subordinates have already arranged it."

"Oh, tell me the details."

"The subordinates have arranged the 10,000 sergeants belonging to General Li Wanqing to the front line. The remaining 40,000 brothers are arranged on two wings, and if the attack goes well, the brothers will come out from both wings, and if the battle situation is not smooth. The brothers on both wings retreated and quickly retreated to Wugong County to assemble. ”

Gao Yingxiang nodded slightly, if you are not sure of the battle, you still have to think of a way out first.

"Well, if the sergeants to which Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng belong, if they retire, how are they going to arrange."

"The subordinates have thought about it, General Li Yichuan and General Liu Guoneng must lead the sergeants to resist desperately, once they are entangled with the Jiangning battalion, it is impossible to think of retreating in a short period of time, and the subordinates arranged for the 10,000 sergeants belonging to General Li Wanqing to assist Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng to resist the Jiangning battalion, and at the same time receive the retreating sergeants."

Gao Yingxiang frowned slightly, this arrangement is too much, if they return to Hanzhong, Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng will not make a big fuss, including Li Wanqing, they will raise questions, the 40,000 soldiers led by themselves did not pay any price, once such a precedent appears, everyone is thinking about preserving their own strength and how to confront the army of the imperial court when they are fighting.

"This arrangement is not appropriate, and it has to be adjusted."

The officer saw that Gao Yingxiang's face was wrong, and hurriedly made additions.

"Marshal, my subordinates think that this arrangement is appropriate, there are a total of 60,000 troops to meet the Jiangning battalion, if they can't resist the attack of the Jiangning battalion, the remaining 40,000 brothers will be difficult to change the situation of the battle, it is better to preserve their own strength, besides, if the Jiangning battalion can suffer losses this time, it can also buy time for the brothers to kill Shaanxi."

When Gao Yingxiang heard this, he stood up.

"Oh, tell me more."

"The subordinates thought that the Jiangning battalion came to Shaanxi, on the surface, it was very unfavorable to the righteous army, but in fact, the Jiangning battalion came to Shaanxi Province and was responsible for dealing with our righteous army, and the Ming army in the rest of the place naturally had to relax their vigilance, in their opinion, the Jiangning battalion was enough to deal with our righteous army, in this case, the righteous army took advantage of the situation to kill out of Shaanxi, and went to Shanxi, Henan, and Sichuan to develop, and the righteous army and the imperial army fought many times, and there was no fear of emotion, maybe so, the righteous army could further develop and grow."

Gao Yingxiang looked back at the officer, and he knew that this officer would never have so much foresight.

"Let's talk about it, who reminded you of these understandings."

The officer paused for a moment and lowered his head, obviously not wanting to say.

Gao Yingxiang's face turned cold.

"If you don't want to say it, don't be by my side."

"Dashuai, the subordinates say, the subordinates say."

Gao Yingxiang looked at the officer, waiting for the officer to say the person behind him, in fact, he had a faint guess.

"These are all said by General Li Zicheng, before his subordinates followed the commander to go on the expedition, General Li specially told his subordinates about these things, and asked his subordinates to fight well and protect the safety of the commander."

Gao Yingxiang's expression was very ugly.

"Li Zicheng said something, you say it all."

"General Li also said that the 100,000-strong army sneak attack on the Jiangning battalion, it is impossible to achieve 100% secrecy, although the Jiangning battalion has just arrived in Shaanxi, but for a brave and good fighting army, it will not relax its vigilance at any moment, maybe on the eve of the war, the Jiangning battalion will be prepared, and make relevant deployments, if such a situation occurs, everything will become unpredictable, so General Li warned his subordinates that they must ensure the safety of the marshal."

A smile appeared on Gao Yingxiang's face, and he quickly looked up and smiled.

"So that's the case, isn't it that before the army set off, Li Zicheng had already arranged everything, let Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng attack in front, let Li Wanqing's 10,000 sergeants block the Jiangning battalion, and let the rest of the 40,000 sergeants be ready to retreat, and even when retreating, I want to be at the front."

The officer bowed his head and stopped talking.

Gao Yingxiang's face turned pale, such an arrangement, on the surface, is for him Gao Yingxiang, but in fact, if he commands the brothers to fight like this, after returning to Hanzhong, what influence can he have, let the brothers be cannon fodder, but he escaped from the battle, and he didn't even think of victory.

Gao Yingxiang felt the cold to the bone, if the 40,000 soldiers under his command all thought like this, then this battle had already been a complete failure before it began.

"Tell me, has such an arrangement been ordered?"

The officer did not speak, but nodded.

Gao Yingxiang suddenly felt desperate, this despair came from within the rebel army, all his whereabouts were clearly grasped by Li Zicheng, and even what kind of arrangements would be made, Li Zicheng knew it, and made arrangements in advance, what this meant, there is no need to explain.

"Bastard, gather the officers at once and bring them all to my tent."

The officer realized that Gao Yingxiang might have to make adjustments, and he couldn't care about Gao Yingxiang's temper, so he hurriedly spoke.

"Marshal, everything is arranged, the campaign is about to begin, at this time it is too late to adjust the deployment, and it will affect the morale of the brothers."

"Needless to say, call the officers immediately, I know what to do, I don't need you to say more, from now on, I will personally command this sneak attack."

When all the officers entered the tent, they sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

The tent is not big, and it is a little difficult to accommodate so many people.

Gao Yingxiang asked all the officers to get out of the tent and walk out of the tent himself.

"Brothers, this sneak attack on the Jiangning camp is related to the life and death of the rebel army, so in this battle, we must do our best, the arrangement just now, there are some problems, we can't destroy our own prestige, and grow the enemy's morale......"

Gao Yingxiang began to make new arrangements, this time, he basically arranged his 40,000 sergeants on the front line, leaving 5,000 people behind, as for the 10,000 sergeants to which Li Wanqing belonged, they were arranged in the middle position.

Such an arrangement completely subverted the previous arrangement, and all the officers felt incredible, but no one raised objections, and Gao Yingxiang's expression explained everything.

The changes made by Gao Yingxiang were not only unexpectedly expected by the officers of the righteous army, but also by Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Yingying, who did not expect it, Gao Yingxiang gave up the idea of running away and retreating, and arranged all the sergeants on the front line.

Such a change shows Gao Yingxiang's determination and dissatisfaction with Li Zicheng.

Everything has changed, which also adds an element of uncertainty to the subsequent fight.

As for the arrangement of Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng, Gao Yingxiang did not have any special investigation, the previous arrangement was obviously for Li Yichuan and Liu Guoneng to be sent to death, the two of them could not be so stupid, and they could be predicted.

Temporarily changing the deployment, there are a lot of things that need to be done, Gao Yingxiang began to arrange it personally, he left the tent, rode to the battalions to inspect it, and supervised the implementation of all the arrangements. (To be continued......)
