Zhang Fangyan's excitement was completely unexpected by Li Xin, and he saw the old man's beard trembling with excitement, and he said in a loud voice: "In this battle, even if you lose the enemy, you will have to take General Niu and the eight hundred soldiers under his command out of the hands of the thieves..." When you pulled the old man into the cabin before, how relaxed was your attitude? ”

Li Xin suddenly realized that it seemed that his attitude had given Zhang Fangyan a wrong signal, making him think that the Three Guards might still have the ability to take advantage of the fire. But after thinking about it again, it seems that there is something that cannot be explained, perhaps it is because the previous record of the Three Guards has not tasted defeat has given him too much confidence. In short, Zhang Fangyan was constantly urging to rescue the cow eggs as much as possible.

It's just that this expression is very different from the previous move of insisting on returning to Beijing after hearing that Dongchang Mansion was occupied by the rebellious people WWW.UUXS.CC. As for Zhang Fangyan, Li Xin found that he was becoming more and more unable to see through this old man, sometimes cowardly, sometimes tough, and there was no law to follow at all. But under Zhang Fangyan's repeated urging, Li Xin also had to speak out to appease his feelings.

"Elder Ge doesn't need to be impatient, Niu Dan is an officer of Li Xin's personal army, how can Li Xin ignore it? This matter is not trivial, the battle array determines the life and death of thousands of people, and before acting, it is necessary to find out the details of the enemy, so that the plan can be in the chest, before it can make a sensation..."

These words were reasonable, and Zhang Fangyan calmed down after hearing them, feeling that what Li Xin said was also reasonable, but he was still very worried.

"The general has to be fast, I'm afraid that General Niu's eight hundred people won't be able to support it if it's too late..."

Li Xinxin said, aren't you in a hurry? Then he turned again and inquired about the soldier.

"Ben Shuai asked you, have you ever found out why the thieves of the fifth battalion of Gezuo came to Dongchang Mansion? Shouldn't they have been in the Inho Mountains? ”

The soldier may also be a scout, after catching the thief's tongue, he also asked about the ins and outs, and at this moment, when he heard the town's question, he told what he knew and discerned.

"Back to Master Hou, the villain did inquire about some news, but there was not much confirmation."

"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it, whether it's true or not, the commander has his own decision..." Li Xinyan could not see that this was a rhetoric to avoid disaster, and in case the shape was different from what he said, there was also a pretext to get rid of the involvement. The soldier replied happily: "The villain learned that the chaos in Dongchang Mansion was indeed done by the local rebels, due to the drought and the harvest, the local taxes could not meet the routine standards, but it was Dongchang's payment lord if this year Quanxu fell to the bottom of the vacancies, so he made a hard assessment to the squires all over the country, and in the end it was the common people who were unlucky, and later there was a death in Weijiawan, and the people couldn't bear it anymore and rose up......"

He only wanted to know why the Fifth Battalion of Gezuo was in Dongchang Mansion in Shandong, and how many men and horses there were, whether it had anything to do with Li Zicheng in Henan, and why Yang Sichang didn't stop the thieves at the junction of Henan and Huguang from flowing north to Shandong? This building by piece is the most important thing he desperately wants to know.

"Yes, yes, the villain picked the key points." The soldier nodded repeatedly, smacked his mouth and continued: "Later, the rebels rushed open the gate of Dongchang Mansion in a fit of anger, and they were arresting the prefect in the yamen. Things have come to this point, just as the bow did not turn back, some people in the chaos felt that this had become a rebellion, and they alone would definitely not be able to compete with the officials and soldiers of the imperial court, and I heard that there were Li Zicheng's thieves in Henan, so they recommended a few people to Henan to look for people, and who knew that it took a few days to bring back the fifth battalion of the left ......"

The soldier still spoke very carefully, and Li Xin listened to the black line in his head, but fortunately, he had already said the point, so he couldn't help but listen.

"It's also the prefect's life that deserves to die, it is said that after the people from the fifth battalion of the Ge Zuo came, I heard that the prefect was not under house arrest in the payment yamen, so he laughed, pointing directly at the rebellion, and did not dare to kill the official, how ridiculous..."

"The people are benevolent and obedient, they can't bear to kill officials, and the so-called rebellion is also a corrupt official who causes the people to live in misery, but it's a pity that they can't turn back..."

The soldier knew that the old man in front of him was the old man of the former court, and the current governor of Zhejiang, who was a real official, much stronger than the Hou Ye in front of him, after all, the imperial court used literature to control the military, and Li Xin was a Hou Ye who had no military power, so naturally he fell into the water.

"What the elder said was very true, and the villain also pondered that the people of Dongchang still had some conscience, so he said that after the leader of the fifth battalion of the Ge Left came, he selected the strong among the people, and the rest of the old and weak women and children, and ordered them to be executed..."

Zhang Fangyan slapped the table with a snap, and asked angrily, "What did the beast do, why is this?" ”

The soldier sighed, "Why else, Dongchang has limited food, and they can't fight if they are kept, so it's a waste of food..."

Zhang Fangyan's thin old hands suddenly trembled when he was on the table, and his voice began to be a little dry, "All, all killed?" ”

"Don't worry, the old and weak, the women and children are all local strong family members, how can they look at the thieves in the fifth battalion of the Revolution and the left to kill without permission? In the end, under the pleading, they were blasted out of Dongchangfu City..."

Not only Zhang Fangyan, but even Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief, tens of thousands of people in Dongchang were in turmoil, half of them had to be old and weak women and children, if all of them were killed, it would be tens of thousands of lives...

"The villain also came out of that tongue and mouth before, only when he came back, he happened to meet General Niu and the old and weak homeless, and moreover, tens of thousands of thieves followed, obviously, obviously ......"

The soldier meant that the thieves planned to slaughter all the old and weak women and children outside the city, but Li Xin had another opinion. Dongchang Mansion to the north is Linqing, Linqing is located at the intersection of the Yellow River and the Grand Canal, is the transportation hub that runs through the east, west, north and south, the thieves dispatched tens of thousands of people should be aimed at this, otherwise the dispatch is like many people just to slaughter the people, the logic also makes sense, not to mention that the old and weak women and children have been driven out of the city, without the loss of food in the city, there is no need to sneak out of the city to kill them all, even if the thieves are all devils who kill people without blinking, they will not be stupid to such a situation, right? Therefore, the only explanation for their abnormal behavior is to rush to Linqing.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Xin realized that it was a coincidence that Niu Dan met the thieves in Zhu Zaozhuang, and that gang of thieves was not going for them, if so, it might be much more beneficial to Niu Dan and Heisenberg.

But I heard Zhang Fangyan say on the side: "The thieves are the fifth battalion of the left of Gege, and there are tens of thousands of rabble soldiers. The old man once saw with his own eyes that the Marquis of Zhenzhu defeated Liu Hui's 100,000 army with thousands of elites, and now the fifth battalion of the left is only tens of thousands, so it should be difficult to suppress the Marquis, right? ”

Li Xin smiled bitterly, what's wrong with this Fang Yan, is it child's play to fight? Looking at the appearance of blowing his beard and staring eyes, where is there still the submissive look when he was in Taiyuan?

"Please wait and see, as for how to fight, please don't interfere beyond your authority..."

Zhang Fangyan's behavior is obviously leaning on his teammates, if he follows such a person every time he fights, he can't annoy people to death? But after all, this person is the military and political governor of the two provinces with the dignity of the Taiwan Cabinet, and he has to give some face no matter what.

"The Marquis of Zhenyu is wrong in his words, the old man supervises the military and politics, this is a matter of responsibility, how can he say that he overstepped his authority?"

Zhang Fangyan fought hard to not give an inch. Li Xinzhen wanted to point at Zhang Fangyan's nose and reprimand him, telling him that what he was doing now was a typical layman commanding an insider, and in the end it would only be an unprecedented defeat for the Three Guards Army, which had not tasted defeat.

Li Xinlai came to the map of Shandong that had been spread out on the table in the cabin for a long time, and compared the simple lines for a while, weighing it in his heart, but his heart was half cold. According to his judgment, there are no more than two ways for the thieves of the Fifth Battalion of Gezuo to get to Dongchang Mansion, one is to take Henan Guide Mansion, and after entering Shandong, they can go to Dongchang through Dingtao, Caozhou, and Yuncheng. The other is to cross Kaifeng Mansion, cross the Yellow River, and then pass through the Zhili Daimyo Mansion, but only Dongchang can be inserted.

Judging from the difficulty of Cheng dù, it is very likely that the people of the Fifth Battalion of the Revolution Zuo are on the front line of Guide Mansion in Henan, but there is a problem here. That is, Li Xin learned from the news that he saw in Jingshi before, and the governor Xiong Wencan was assigned by Yang Sichang to be stationed in the area of Chenliu to Guide in the south of Kaifeng, if the fifth battalion of Gezuo could break through here and enter Shandong, then where is Xiong Wencan at the moment?

The foreboding suddenly strengthened in Li Xin's heart, and the things asserted by Liu Yuliang's secret letter were fulfilled step by step. But what followed was a chill to the bone, Xiong Wencan, Yang Sichang, Zuo Liangyu, and King Shen who raised troops to enter the junction of Shaanxi and Sichuan, all the Ming soldiers and horses who cleared up the thieves were all in Li Xin's mind. Don't......

"The Marquis of Zhenyu is still hesitating? If you hesitate any longer, the old man will have the right to take command..."

Li Xin would abandon the cow eggs, but the current shape was obviously not as optimistic as Zhang Fangyan thought, thinking that it was just a handful of thieves who suddenly appeared. From a holistic point of view, it is definitely not a wise move to rush into the thieves rashly.

He was finally annoyed by Zhang Fangyan, and sneered: "If the elder wants to act as the commander, the order is that if something goes wrong, you and I will die without a place to be buried..."

"You, how do you know that the old man will definitely make a mistake?" Zhang Fangyan didn't know where his confidence came from, he even wanted to command the army, and they all said that people knew that he was so ignorant of what he was saying about three dynasties.

Li Xin finally stopped paying attention to Zhang Fangyan's noise, and categorically ordered the ship to be stopped, and he wanted to go ashore...
