Under a bright moon, standing side by side with Li Yan, Zhu Ping'an suddenly had a very strange feeling. It has been several years since this era, and I have seen many famous people who have left their mark on history, but it is the first time that I have stood with people who are in the opposing camp and whose words are unknown in history.

Li Yanqi, for some reason, is not conspicuous in history, and even whether this person has existed or not, there has never been a conclusive conclusion in the history of later generations. But there is no doubt that this person is here now, and the battle between Tong Guò and Sujiagou is enough to prove that this person is a general who is well versed in military affairs, and what Yang Chuan said just now can also show that he is a more sober and objective person in the camp of the army.

Regardless of the camp, the two do cherish each other. In the conversation just now, both of them understood that it would be difficult for each other to poach each other from their current camp, so they also wisely avoided this topic.

However, Li Yan felt very sorry. The current invasion army, even if it accepts a large number of Ming army soldiers, there are very few generals who are good at fighting. On the one hand, this is due to the fact that the legitimacy of the current Ming court still exists, and on the other hand, it is due to Li Zicheng's personal reasons. Out of distrust of the Ming army's generals, Li Zicheng preferred to reuse some mediocre generals who had followed him for many years. This also caused the fact that although there are many people in the army, there are very few generals who can take charge of the party.

People like Zhu Ping'an are difficult to accept when they break into the army. Even if Zhu Ping'an is willing to take refuge, I am afraid that he may not be more satisfactory than now.

Li Yan's pot of wine, and Zhu Ping'an, each took a sip, and in a short time, most of it was consumed. For a talent like Li Yan, Zhu Ping'an doesn't know if he will really die in the hands of the villain as rumored in history, but now that they can talk about wine together, Zhu Ping'an feels that he still needs to give Li Yan a wake-up call.

"Brother Lin Quan is talented, and he has admired Ping An for a long time. Without Brother Lin Quan's hard work, Li Chuang would never have been in today's situation. Although you and I are meeting for the first time, we are very close to each other. The younger brother also knew that the next words were a little inappropriate, but he always didn't vomit or be unhappy, and asked Brother Lin Quan not to mind! ”

Li Yan suddenly laughed, "General Mengzhu calls me my brother, but then Yan is disrespectful, and it doesn't hurt if the virtuous brother has everything to say." In tomorrow's battle, you and I will fight to the death. Tonight's pot of wine and a table of words are the right to be your parting words for me! ”

"Brother Lin Quan is extremely elegant and elegant, and it is inevitable that he will be out of place in the army. Now that the army is thriving, even if it is to force the Beijing Division, it may not be impossible to ......! ”

Zhu Ping'an's words surprised Li Yan, he didn't expect Zhu Ping'an to say such a rebellious thing, and he didn't expect him to respect the army so much. In this case, it is not impossible to try the solicitation!

However, the younger brother Guan Li has become his own person, but he can share the weal and woe, but he may not be able to share the rich and noble, his person is just a post pawn, the pattern is limited, and now he is fighting the world with domineering, which seems to be invincible, but in fact it is a foundation at all. If it weren't for Brother Lin Quan's advice, I'm afraid he would still be wandering in the mountains now, where did he come from such a beautiful scenery. ”

"Little brother just wants to remind Brother Lin Quan. It is easy to take the world, but it is difficult to govern the world, and the army may be able to change the dynasty, but the world cannot be sat by them. What's more, Li Zicheng seems to be open-minded and heroic, but in fact he is narrow-minded and short-sighted. Brother Lin Quan may not be able to hear this now, but there will always be a time to verify it in the future. The little brother only hopes that Brother Lin Quan will be careful and cautious at all times, and he must not be taken advantage of by the villain and be plotted! ”

Zhu Ping'an's words made Li Yan frown, although he didn't like it, he could hear that this was Zhu Ping'an's heart, and the meaning of care was obvious. But Zhu Ping'an's judgment of Li Zicheng made Li Yan quite dissatisfied, and now Li Zicheng must consult Li Yan's opinion before doing everything, which shows his trust in himself, not to mention, Li Zicheng is now wearing hundreds of thousands, looking around the whole world, except for the Ming Court, who is most likely to dominate Shenzhou.

Li Yan's expression, Zhu Ping'an saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but smile, knowing that Li Yan was now getting along with Li Zicheng, he might not be able to listen to his own reminder, and continued at the moment: "If Brother Lin Quan doesn't believe the words of the younger brother, then the younger brother will make a gambling contract with the younger brother. ”

"Oh? What is the bet? ”

"If one day, Li Zicheng can really unify the northern provinces and rule the world, and he can easily dismiss the meager endowment, recuperate with the people, and even more able to capture the northern Tartars outside the customs. The little brother is willing to vote for the military and civilians of Shandong Province, what does the brother think? ”

"Really?" Li Yan's spirits perked up, and in his opinion, these things could be achieved no matter what.

"On the contrary, if you join one day, after Li Zicheng's great cause is completed, he only wants to enjoy himself and does not want to make progress, or he is jealous of his brother's talent and wants to slaughter the heroes......!"

"This can't be?" Li Yan replied firmly.

Zhu Ping'an smiled, "It's just a hypothesis!" If there is really that day, the younger brother hopes that the elder brother will not have any nostalgia and hope for free shipping, and the elder brother's talent can lead an army by himself. Henan is the place where the elder brother raised his army, and the younger brother wanted to ask the elder brother to move to Henan. When the time comes, the world is strife, and the elder brother can choose the opportunity to move! ”

The first time they met, Zhu Ping'an said so many heartfelt words, even he felt a little shallow and profound, but the current situation forced him to watch a talent like Li Yan embark on a road of no return, so he told him bluntly, only hoping that Li Yan could remember his reminder and leave a way for himself to live.

Li Yan smiled wryly, but in his heart he was a little unimpressed by Zhu Ping'an's bet. The eldest husband stands between heaven and earth, in this troubled era, assisting Ming Jun to become an immortal business, this is a desire buried in Li Yan's heart. Now he didn't doubt his choice at all, and he just laughed at Zhu Ping'an's bet.

But Li Yan still stretched out his palm and struck Zhu Ping'an lightly, "It's so good, I think there will always be a day when the virtuous brother can be a minister in the same palace with the foolish brother and help the new dynasty together!" ”

A rapid sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, a fast horse rushed up the mountain beam, the knight turned over and dismounted, galloped to Li Yan's side, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Li Yan's smile suddenly became relaxed, and he turned to Zhu Ping'an and said, "It seems that he was unfortunately said by the foolish brother, and the virtuous brother probably doesn't know yet!" Nanyang has been conquered by King Chuang, fierce as a tiger, Liu Ruzuo died, and Tang King Zhu Yuzhen raised fire to self-harm in the palace Qilin Pavilion! ”

Zhu Ping'an was stunned for a moment, and before he had time to taste it carefully, Shen Ke behind him also hurried up, "Great marshal, Wang Zhijun convened all the generals to discuss and asked the marshal to return immediately." Also, the messenger of the military department has also arrived at the camp! ”

Li Yan clenched his fists, "In this case, the foolish brother will say goodbye, tomorrow's battle, you and I must do our best, see the real chapter!" ”

Zhu Ping'an smiled bitterly: "Brother Lin Quan, I'm afraid that the younger brother will have to say goodbye first, what is the specific, we will see tomorrow!" ”

……

Zhu Ping'an and Li Yan's calculations failed. The fall of Nanyang disrupted a Qiē's plan. After Li Zicheng conquered Nanyang, he immediately led the army to the front line of Zhenping. Chen Yongfu and Gao Qian's Henan army immediately stopped advancing and began to shrink backwards.

And on the front line of Zhenping, only Wang Qiaonian's people are left, and he can't help but seem lonely. Therefore, Wang Qiaonian also had to decide to retreat backwards and temporarily avoid Li Zicheng's troops. Due to the defeat of Songshan, the Manchu army began to move again, intending to take advantage of the victory and enter the Guannai to sack again, so as to replenish the consumption after the war.

In order to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy of the last invasion, and to ensure that the retreat is peaceful. Emperor Chongzhen strictly ordered the military department to carry out the order and sent Zhu Ping'an's troops back to Shandong to resist the Qing army.

At the same time, the messenger of the military department also brought another news, Cao Bianjiao, who held Tashan in the Battle of Songshan and was later succeeded by the Denglai Water Division, was held accountable by the imperial court for retreating without authorization, and has now been demoted to a concubine. The Ministry of War also issued an order, ordering Zhu Ping'an to return to Shandong, and organize Cao Bianjiao's 5,000 subordinates to be placed under Wang Qiaonian's command, and all the military salaries, grains and grass should be paid and paid, and all of them should be solved by Shandong.

This is obviously a trick played by Chen Xinjia. He was afraid that Zhu Ping'an would take the opportunity to bring the 5,000 Jin army under his command, so he couldn't wait to order the Jin army to return to Shanxi as much as possible, and Shandong was responsible for all the expenditures. The implication is to use Cao Bianjiao to kill chickens and monkeys, and sue Zhu Ping'an: The court did not treat you for the crime of using troops without authorization, and it is already an extrajudicial grace. Next time may not be so lucky, Cao Bianjiao is your Zhu Ping'an's experience!

As soon as the news came out, the generals couldn't help but feel sorry for Cao Bianjiao. Cao Bianjiao is only in his thirties this year, which is the golden age of military generals, and he is the nephew of the famous general Cao Wenzhao, whose martial arts and courage won the three armies. In the army, there is often a "Jin Guofeng is good at guarding, Cao Bianjiao is good at attacking", Jin Guofeng died in Ningyuan, and Cao Bianjiao is now removed from his official position and demoted to a concubine, the fate of these two generals undoubtedly makes people sigh.

However, just when everyone was sighing, Yang Tinglin secretly complained, which made Sun Shikang on the side stunned.

"Was Chen Xinjia's head caught by the door? Five thousand foot soldiers are nothing for Zhu Ping'an, but now it's good, Cao Bianjiao, a fierce general, was given to Zhu Ping'an in vain, this deal is really ......! Alas! ”

Zhu Ping'an's department left, but Wang Qiaonian didn't care. In his opinion, Zhu Ping'an is indeed talented and courageous, but it is because of these two points that Wang Qiaonian feels that Zhu Ping'an is not easy to control. Especially his "unauthorized power" behavior in Julu, which is not well rated among civil officials. In comparison, Wang Qiaonian felt that it was He Renlong and his ilk that were better controlled. What's more, because Cao Bianjiao was demoted, the 5,000 border troops came under his command.

Therefore, for Zhu Ping'an's departure, Wang Qiaonian did not keep too much. But Sun Chuanting, Hu Dawei and others are worried. Zhu Ping'an left, the Shaanxi army is dominant, He Renlong's arrogance will be even more arrogant, and how to fight the next war. R1152
