Xiaochuan's eyes are uncomfortable and painful these days, and I don't know what's going on!

However, I still hold on to the codeword!

Brothers, if you have the ability, please support the genuine version of the boat! Kneel and thank!

~~~~~~~

"This ......"

Luo Anbang hurriedly arched his hand at Liu Ruyi, "Grandpa Guo, this person is insidious and cunning, it can be said that he has come and gone without a trace, although he was still haunting near Xingshan County yesterday, but at this time, he really doesn't know his specific movements!" It's hard for our spies to get into his side! ”

"That's fine!" Liu Ruyi nodded and smiled slightly, "General Luo, let me ask you, according to your understanding of the sacrifice thief, since he has entered the hinterland of Huguang at this time, where will he go next?" ”

Luo Anbang didn't expect that Duke Qi would ask him this, and after thinking for a moment, he said carefully: "Grandpa Guo, judging from the information obtained by the current humble position, the thief seems to have intentions for Xiangyang City!" However, this matter is not good to say! In the mountainous areas around Yunyang Mansion and Guizhou Mansion, the thieves are extremely familiar, and the terrain is dangerous, which is more suitable for his situation at this time, and Xiangyang City is a big city after all, with the ability to sacrifice thieves, I am afraid it is impossible to take it too easily! It was a good chance that he would choose the former! After all, the thief is known for his cunning, and if he is not sure enough, he will definitely not attack Xiangyang City easily! ”

Liu Ruyi nodded, "This time my Caishi Army entered Huguang, besides you, has anyone else known about it?" ”

Luo Anbang hurriedly said: "Grandpa Guo, this matter is very important, and he didn't even tell his mother-in-law about his humble position, and there are only a few henchmen under his command!" But, Grandpa Guo, you ...... this march"

Liu Ruyi smiled, "I know this matter in my heart, you don't have to worry!" Now, though, I do have a couple of things I want you to do! ”

"I am willing to die for the grandfather of the country!" Luo Anbang hurriedly knelt on the ground.

In the land of Huguang, the soldiers are already weak, and Luo Anbang himself is not very talented, in the face of the current environment, the local generals of Huguang can only have their own knowledge.

Although he is a general, there are only less than 1,000 people in his headquarters, and his combat power is even more precarious, so he basically belongs to the role of 'playing soy sauce' in Huguang.

Fortunately, Luo Anbang was lucky, he had a good relationship with Liu Ruyi in his early years, and he sold some information to exchange some silver from Liu Ruyi's hands to support his family.

But with the rise of Liu Ruyi, the Caishi Army gradually became famous all over the world, and Luo Anbang's mind was all on Liu Ruyi's body, only hoping that Liu Ruyi would come to Huguang as soon as possible and save him from the 'sea of fire!' ’

At this time, Liu Ruyi had already arrived, and personally ordered him to explain the task, how could he not be ecstatic?

"It's also very simple!"

Liu Ruyi glanced at Luo Anbang and said solemnly: "Huguang Bureau, I am an outsider after all!" Therefore, I don't want too many people to know about it! You are a native of this place, and the relationship in Xiangyang City will be handed over to you! You need to remember this! ”

Liu Ruyi beckoned Luo Anbang to come closer.

Luo Anbang hurriedly came over and nodded again and again, "Yes, yes!" ”

After saying that, Liu Ruyi waved his hand, "You can do this as soon as possible!" Don't be afraid to spend money! The generals who can be counted in Xiangyang City, don't miss a single person! But this matter must be asked and won! The Caishi Army will not camp outside Xiangyang City, so, General Luo, you have a great responsibility! ”

"Yes! Humiliation swears to complete the task assigned by the grandfather of the country! Luo Anbang hurriedly kowtowed.

"Yes! Let's go down! Go to the camp first and withdraw 200,000 taels, and be sure to get this matter done! ”

"Yes!"

~~~~~~

Luo Anbang left, but Liu Ruyi slowly fell into deep thought.

Huguang's situation at this time, in fact, the most important thing is one person - that is, the thief!

It's just that in the past few years, Liu Ruyi has also fought with him several times, defeated him and defeated him, and there is no pressure on the Caishi Army!

But if you want to kill it, it is really difficult!

The point is that this guy is too good to run!

The western part of Huxi is the deepest mountainous area in China, and it is really difficult for him to find a random foot of the mountain to drill into it, and to pull him out again!

Moreover, his subordinates, Li Dingguo, Sun Kewang, Ai Nengqi, Liu Wenxiu, etc., are all generals in the world, and they are all dragons and phoenixes among people!

If you want to get rid of the trouble of sacrificing thieves, the most important thing is to start from the roots!

This is actually the most helpless status quo of the Ming Dynasty against the Exile Army!

On the contrary, at the beginning, there were not many victories of the official army, but there were not many victories of the official army, but the thieves were not exhausted, and the grass was not eradicated, which led to the weakening of the official army and the stronger the army became, but the more the army was fighting, the stronger it became!

After all, although the official army won, but it did not catch the leader of the homeless army, the court will inevitably be held accountable, this time, the position of the boss will definitely not be guaranteed, and he will be replaced by a new boss!

In such a cycle, how can it be good to let those civil servants who do not know the slightest soldier and do not understand the situation lead the troops?

After all, people's abilities are limited, and they can't imagine that they are civil servants, and they all have the ability to turn the tide like Yu Qian and Zhang Juzheng, right?

This is actually the sorrow of Emperor Chongzhen!

will actually meet Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, two famous and unbeatable Xiaoqiang in Chinese history!

Throughout the 5,000-year history of China, even the 'sect leader' Zhang Jiao and the murderous salt dealer Huang Chao don't have the energy of these two people!

If it was more than 200 years earlier, if Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang met these two people, he would have a headache, right?

But it has come to this point, Liu Ruyi will never allow the thief to be 'at large' like this!

During the Xiaoice River period, it was already extremely difficult, the people were not able to make a living, and Daming could no longer continue to have civil strife like this!

It's just that if you want to get rid of the sacrifice thief, how easy is it?

This guy is more slippery than a loach, and if you want him to take the bait, you must first draw a tempting pie!

Liu Ruyi gently played with a delicate dagger, but a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth!

This thing is really difficult to say, but it is also extremely simple!

Isn't Xiangyang City in front of you the most suitable piece of cake?

At this time, Dong Xiaowan walked to Liu Ruyi's side in a robe, and said pitifully: "Husband, it's so cold here!" Shall we not go into the city to rest? Some people's bodies can't hold on! ”

Liu Ruyi couldn't help but shake her head, women are really troublesome!

However, in order to lay out Huguang, the Caishi Chamber of Commerce represented by Dong Xiaowan is also an extremely important part, and Liu Ruyi had to abandon the rules and keep her by her side.

"Huh! Xiao Wan, I said it a long time ago! The march is too hard, now I realize it! Bear with me, let's set up camp right away! Liu Ruyi smiled and hugged Dong Xiaowan in his arms, waved his hand and beckoned his own soldiers and said: "Pass on my military order, the whole army will retreat ten miles and camp in the mountains to the west!" ”

"Yes!"

~~~~~~~

Baokang County, Changping Fort!

Surrounded by mountains and rivers confluence, it has entered the hinterland of Xiangyang Province.

At this time, in the open space by a big river, Zhang Xianzhong's more than 10,000 troops set up camp here!

"The big is hidden in the court, the middle is hidden in the city, and the small is hidden in the wild!" This has always been the most fundamental creed of Zhang Xianzhong's life.

This is what a fortune teller taught him when he was still a big soldier in northern Shaanxi, Zhang Xianzhong is the truth!

Although he defeated the fierce tiger and Liu Shijie, Zhang Xianzhong's heart did not have much joy, for him, the two of them were just as ordinary as weeds on the side of the road, and they could be stepped on lightly with one foot!

What he cares about at this time is Xiangyang City, which is far away in the sky, but close in front of him!

It's just that when Yang Sichang left Sichuan, although he took away some soldiers, Zuo Liangyu and He Renlong were in Yicheng, not far from Xiangyang.

Zhang Xianzhong was not sure in his heart, whether he could go down to Xiangyang City in a fight!

When he was a child, he followed others to do some small business, although he is now a 'prince', but in his body, the shrewdness of this small trader has never been lost!

He will never do anything that suffers!

If he can't take advantage of it, he won't do it either!

Although Xiangyang City is beautiful, if he is not completely sure, he will definitely not try it rashly!

However, I heard that the tax money from the five southwestern provinces this year had just arrived in Xiangyang City, and he was really reluctant to let him give up like this.

looked at the two white-flowered women beside him, Zhang Xianzhong didn't have the slightest interest!

Yesterday's bloody sweep of Changping Fort, although he got a lot of food, materials and women, but he couldn't raise Zhang Xianzhong's excitement at all.

What are these rural villages~ women?

If you can really capture Xiangyang City, the women in the palace will be called delicious enough!

Why do the best-looking women in the world have to let their surnamed Zhu sleep, and Lao Tzu can't sleep?

At this time, there was an excited report from the soldiers outside the door, "Big handsome, big handsome, good news, good news!" News has just come from the brothers ahead! They, they caught an official and military messenger who had just come out of Xiangyang City and was about to go to Sichuan to deliver a letter to Yang Sichang! ”

"What?" Zhang Xianzhong instantly came to the spirit, "Where are the people?" Bring it to me! ”

"Yes!"

~~~~

In a moment, seven or eight official cavalrymen who were tied up like zongzi were brought to Zhang Xianzhong.

"You came out of Xiangyang City?" Zhang Xianzhong's eagle-like gaze stared directly at a few people.

In other words, these people are too unlucky, they don't know that Changping Fort has been captured by thieves, passing by here, they just want to beg for saliva to drink, but they don't want to throw themselves into the net!

The leading officer hurriedly said: "Grandpa spares his life!" The little ones are indeed from Xiangyang City, and they are about to go to Chongqing to deliver a letter to the elder of the pavilion! Letters, fuses are all here! Please also ask grandpa to see that we are old and young, bypassing me and waiting for a cheap life! ”

Zhang Xianzhong was overjoyed in his heart, but his face was silent, "Do you want to live?" It's not impossible! I am also from a poor background, and I know the suffering of you people! But first, I'm going to ask you a few questions! If you answer well and satisfy me, I will not only kill you, but I will also give you a sum of money, so that you will have no worries about food and clothing! But if you can't please me, then ......"

Zhang Xianzhong pulled out the saber on his waist!

These officers and military messengers couldn't help but be shocked and angry, and the leading officer hurriedly said: "Grandpa, if you have anything to say, just ask!" A few small people, but there is knowledge, there is no word! ”

"Good!" Zhang Xianzhong smiled, "I'll ask you, how many troops ...... Xiangyang City at this time?"
