~~~~~~~

The cold wind is howling, and the dust is blowing in the face!

At this time, in the camp of the Wandering Army not far from the southwest side of Luoyang City, Li Zicheng climbed a mound and was looking at the direction of the Caishi Army camp worriedly.

Unlike the scheming Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng has a bold personality, is quite upright, and has a bit of heroism!

This also makes him very prestigious in the exile army!

In addition, he is the old 'King Chuang' Gao Yingxiang, the so-called 'justifiable'!

Since the beginning of the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, since he started in Henan, the exile army from all over the country has come to vote, in less than a year, his power has swelled rapidly, and now he has gathered nearly 500,000 people, becoming the first person in the Ming Righteous Army!

The rebel army at the end of the Ming Dynasty was known as the 'Thirty-sixth Battalion', but in fact, this was nothing more than the exile army itself putting gold on its face and boasting about it!

Fathers and sons, brothers, plus a few villagers, more than a dozen people, pick up a hoe, you can claim to be a righteous army!

But these are still the same as before!

After all, at that time, the military strength of the imperial court was not broken, and those who dared to expose the rebellion had some ability, although the number of righteous troops was small, but the combat power was actually not weak, in the face of the official army, less losses and more wins, in Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Huguang and other areas, accumulated a lot of fame!

But now, in order to expand the momentum, Li Zicheng almost does not refuse to come to the investors!

As long as it is not a person who has had life and death with him before, as long as he can pull people to join his camp, he will make a wish and win people's hearts!

But this time, the number of displaced soldiers has gone up, but the quality ~~~ is simply miserable!

This large-scale siege of Luoyang City is no choice for Li Zicheng!

After all, Shaanxi, western Henan, and southern Henan have already scraped off three feet of land by them, and it is difficult to find half a trace of oil and water, but the 500,000 'army' under their command eats horses and chews every day, and the grain and grass consumed is an astronomical amount!

But being a big brother seems to be beautiful, but in fact, it is far from as easy as it seems!

What are the brothers who have come to you with their families? Isn't it just so that his wife and children can eat a full meal?

As for the so-called 'fame and fortune', until this most critical premise is resolved, it is just a bubble!

The county seat, the countryside, there is no way to rob, and in front of Li Zicheng, there are only giant cities like Luoyang and Kaifeng!

500,000 troops gathered, and Li Zicheng was also very confident at the beginning that he would be able to capture Luoyang City in one fell swoop!

At that time, the main elite of the imperial court was fighting with the Manchus in Liaodong, and the officials and troops of the Central Plains had already been beaten by them, and Luoyang City was like a powerless girl with her hands and feet tied to them!

But the reality is cruel!

Although the Ming Dynasty is in decline at the moment, it has been running for nearly three hundred years after all!

At this time, the landlords in the Central Plains, Shaanxi, and Shanxi were armed and strong, and most of them retreated to Luoyang with the Henan official army, relying on the towering city of Luoyang City, and resisted stubbornly!

The exile army has besieged it for nearly a month and paid a great price, but so far, it has achieved little success!

The most serious thing is that Liu Ruyi's elite reinforcements of the Caishi Army have also gone to Luoyang City, and the situation, for the Wandering Army, has reached a moment of life and death!

On the hillside, Li Zichang sighed, his original ambition, in the face of this close to cruel reality, little by little, was ruthlessly annihilated!

It's just that Li Zicheng's gaze is still firm, looking at the towering Luoyang city wall, he is unwilling, and he is unwilling to die!

has paid so much price, nearly ten years of swords, mountains and fires, bloody storms, and countless lives of brothers, finally ushered in this glimmer of light, he does not believe it, and he can't, just before this wish is realized, he will be beaten back to his original form!

"Strategist, according to your opinion, can you judge the military appearance of Liu Ruyi's Caishi Army camp, can you judge their combat strength, how can it be?" Li Zicheng turned his head and said to Song Xiance, who was less than one meter three tall.

Song Xiance's face was also a little restrained, he had read books, and he was born as a fortune teller, and his nerves were much more sensitive to the sense of crisis than Li Zicheng!

"King Chuang, this Liu Ruyi was just the general soldier of Shandong at the beginning, and the combat strength under his command could have 10,000, which is already a coveted move! But right now, the scale of his Caishi Army's position must be at least more than 50,000, and the spirit of this guy really can't be compared with other officers and soldiers! Song Xiance stroked his long goatee, but did not answer Li Zicheng's question positively!

Li Zicheng frowned slightly, and was not satisfied with the reply given by Song Xiance, but Song Xiance had always been in the clouds and fog when he spoke, and there was a camera feng shui hexagram, Li Zicheng really didn't dare to say anything serious to him!

"Strategist, in your opinion, what are the chances of us winning against this Liu Ruyi in this battle?" Li Zicheng looked at Song Xiance, and his words were more straightforward.

Song Xiance's body tightened, but he smiled slightly, "King Chuang, the so-called situation is determined by heaven, although this Liu Ruyi is a tiger wolf, but if the general trend is today, he is on the side of our righteous army!" Even though this Liu Ruyi has three heads and six arms, he may not be able to help us! ”

Li Zicheng's face couldn't help but relax when he heard this, at this moment, he was really afraid that Song Xiance would say something ominous!

Although Li Zicheng can be regarded as a hero, he has little reading, although he understands the righteousness, but there are not many real practical theories, and he can get to this day, he relies more on his personal senses and judgment!

After pondering for a moment, Li Zicheng said again: "Military advisor, at this time, my army has reached such a level, it is like an arrow on the string, and it has to be sent!" Even if this Liu Ruyi is a tiger, we will definitely knock out his tiger teeth! It's just that Li is stupid, and he still hopes that the military advisor will explain to me the strategy of breaking the enemy! ”

Song Xiance glanced at Li Zicheng, and couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart, "If it's just about the attitude towards people and things, Li Zicheng is really a hero!" But at the moment, the officers and troops are sharp, and the future is unpredictable, so it is better to have their own destiny! ’

"King Chuang, the elite of the Caishi Army, although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I have heard a lot! The combat power of the elite Eight Banners Army under the command of Huang Taiji and Dolgon must be not bad! But they also suffered under Liu Ruyi's hands! In this way, the combat power of the Caishi Army is afraid to be even higher than them! The worst is to be on par with the Qing army! This time, this battle, if we want to win, the strong attack will be inferior! If you want to win it safely, you can only outwit! ”

Song Xiance brushed his goatee and calmly analyzed.

This time, he didn't hide it, but said the true opinion in his heart!

After all, at this time, his rich and noble future was also tied to the chariot of the Wandering Army, and to this extent, he could not tolerate the defeat of the Wandering Army!

"So, how do we outwit it?" Li Zicheng asked again.

Song Xiance sighed, "King Chuang, the most elite of the Caishi Army should be firearms!" But in this regard, it is the weakness of our rebels! At this moment, it is difficult to come up with a strategy that can defeat the enemy with one blow! However, looking at Liu Ruyi's actions, it seems that he doesn't want to immediately join the officials and troops in Luoyang City! This point is a little intriguing! King Chuang, perhaps, Liu Ruyi's mind is not on Luoyang City! Perhaps, he is just ......"

Li Zicheng shook his head, "People don't hurt the tiger, but the tiger harms people's hearts!" Liu Ruyi is really a tiger and wolf! Even if he has some other purpose, we have to guard against it! Besides, if we can defeat Liu Ruyi's Caishi Army in this battle, then we will be allowed to gallop in this world! ”

Song Xiance nodded, "King Chuang Gaojian!" ”

At this time, he finally understood why Li Zicheng could sit in his current position, but he was always just a vassal!

Men, you should make up your mind, no matter when, you must not leave anything to chance!

"King Chuang, now we are facing each other! For a while, I'm afraid that there will be no conflict! In this way, I think that it is not too late for us to hold a military discussion as soon as possible, listen to the opinions of other generals, and then make a decision! Song Xiance said busily.

Li Zicheng nodded, "What the military advisor said is very safe!" Come here, inform the generals of the battalions under your command, and come to the big tent to discuss matters! By the way, inform the Hao Shaoqi Department in the east, be cautious, and try not to clash with them if Liu Ruyi does not move! ”

"Yes!"

**************************************************************

At this time, unlike the strict battle of the exile army, in Luoyang City, it was full of people!

The arrival of Liu Ruyi's Caishi army was like a booster, allowing these half-dead officers and soldiers in Luoyang City to instantly 'resurrect with full blood' on the spot!

And the gentry and heroes who were already at the end of their rope in the city cried with joy, and the arrival of the Caishi Army made them see hope again!

After all, the Caishi Army can even lie down under the elite of the Eight Banners under the command of Huang Taiji and Dolgon, not to mention Li Zicheng's mud legs?

At this time, in the side hall of King Fu's Mansion in Luoyang City, many powerful people in Luoyang City gathered together and were discussing how to welcome Liu Ruyi's Caishi Army into the city!

"Lord Wang, all colleagues, all the gentry, the reinforcements of the old man of Qi Guogong have arrived at the city of Luoyang! Let's Luoyang City, it's really saved now! It's just that the identity of the Duke of Qi is respected, and the sons and daughters under his command are also from afar and tired! If we want the old man of Qi Guogong to enter the city as soon as possible, I'm afraid we have to come up with an idea at the same time! ”

The person who spoke was Henan Wang Yinchang!

He is a native of Henan, born in Kejia Jinshi, and is also a leader of Wenchen, in his early years, he had a classmate relationship with Liu Ruyi's mentor Zhang Guangqi, and he has been in touch with Zhang Guangqi all these years!

Especially after Liu Ruyi's rapid rise, he also has a great friendship with Shandong and Liu Ruyi!

Before Liu Ruyi's army arrived in Luoyang, the scouts of the Caishi Army had already made contact with Wang Yinchang!

At this time, the meaning of Wang Yinchang's words was already very clear, the army of the Duke of Qi had arrived, but they were not in vain, if they wanted to let the army enter the city and defend the safety of Luoyang City, everyone present would have to have some blood!

Everyone in the audience whispered for a while, and King Fu also frowned tightly.

Although Henan is the heart of the Central Plains and rich in products, in recent years, natural and man-made disasters have dealt a great blow to the industries of these wealthy businessmen, especially agriculture and commerce, which have basically been in a state of stagnation!

Many of these wealthy businessmen, including King Fu, are eating their old books!

But these days, desperately guarding Luoyang City has made them pay a great price, at this time, hearing Wang Yinchang say this, they can't help but quickly sum up in their hearts!

"Qi Guogong came from afar, let's give out some silver, it's understandable, but everyone, how much money do we have to give out to be appropriate?" King Fu twisted his fat body and said to everyone.

"We are willing to be the head of the king!"

"We are willing to follow behind the prince and do our best for the army of the Duke of Qi!"

“……”

King Fu's words were exactly what everyone in the audience thought, and at this time, as soon as King Fu spoke, everyone couldn't help but have the backbone of the heart, and they responded to the Tao one after another.

King Fu's stinginess is well known to many people, if he takes the lead, this silver must be too much, and everyone is relieved.

"Humph!" Wang Yinchang couldn't help but snort coldly, "Everyone, you want the horses to run, but you don't give the horses grazing!" This matter, if the old man of Qi Guogong knows about it, I am afraid it will be chilling! Do it yourself! ”

"Huh?" Everyone couldn't help but look a little embarrassed.

Only King Fu is casual and wants him to bleed, so it is better to kill him directly!

"Huh! Lord Wang, don't you be so angry? What is Qi Guogong's mind? How do you know the Tao? Hehe! Whether he really wants to save Luoyang City or not, I'm afraid it's still unknown, right? We're sending him the money now, I'm afraid we're in a bit of a hurry, right? ”

At this time, a white and fat man wearing the robe of the chief soldier stood up with a smile and looked straight into Wang Yinchang's eyes!
