Chapter 239: Turning Point

When Li Zicheng vigorously attacked Yuanshi City in the morning, the news of Li Zicheng's entry into Shunde Mansion was like wings, and it spread to Liaozhou City and Jingshi in Shanxi in the afternoon.

Of course, the breach of Huangyu Pass made You Shilu and others the first to get the news, and Li Zicheng and others had already entered Shunde Mansion and quickly took corresponding actions.

Liaozhou City, in the official mansion, You Shilu still held a Tang newspaper tightly in his hand, asking for merit from the imperial court, and there was a surge of anger in his heart. If it weren't for that calmness and reason, I would have to vent in front of everyone.

Hearing that Li Zicheng broke through Huangyu Pass, You Shilu still had a trace of illusion in his heart, and what he did in Liaozhou City was not in vain. However, the news of Li Zicheng's attack on Yuanshi City came one after another, and You Shilu's last trace of illusion was completely shattered, and he immediately sent someone to chase back the soldiers who sent the Tang newspaper.

At this moment, Li Bei was sitting aside, a mocking sneer flashed at the corner of his mouth, and then he said lightly: "General You Bing, the rebel army has reached the Yuan City in Shunde Mansion, we must send an iron cavalry as soon as possible to gallop to the Yuan City, and the infantry will be in the back to hurry." If you hesitate any longer, there will be another situation in Liaozhou City, people will go to the empty building, and the rebellious army will have already left. ”

The corners of You Shilu's mouth twitched, how could he not hear Li Bei's mockery and sarcasm? However, even if he was angry, You Shilu was helpless, whether it was the official rank or the issue of subordination, the two were not related at all, and they still belonged to the same level.

Secretly breathed a long sigh of relief, You Shilu also knew that now was not the time to be angry, so he nodded lightly and responded in a deep voice: "There is no need for General Li to worry, General Ben knows how to do it, and he also knows the priorities." ”

However, hearing this sentence and not getting a positive answer, Li Bei was nervous for no reason, thinking that You Shilu was fighting with him, and deliberately delayed the military plane, and couldn't help but secretly regret that he shouldn't stimulate the other party at this time.

At this moment, Li Bei's expression eased, and he was about to lower his posture to persuade You Shilu to take care of the overall situation, but he saw that the other party looked at He Renlong and ordered: "General He, you first preside over military affairs in Liaozhou City, and General Ben will leave all the infantry behind, take the first step, and go to Yuanshi City for help." After the matter of Liaozhou City was dealt with, he immediately rushed to the aid of the Daimyo Dao soldier Lu Xiangsheng. ”

"Yes, General!"

When He Renlong responded, Li Bei also breathed a sigh of relief and was much more relieved.

At the same time, You Shilu stood up, walked out of the door, didn't look at Li Bei, and said lightly: "General Li, General Ben will go and change into armor now, and go to Yuanshi County immediately, if you are willing to go together, you might as well wait for a while." ”

Without waiting for Li Bei to answer, You Shilu had already strode out, no longer paying attention to Li Bei and the others, and his son You Renlong grabbed the Tang Bao on the table that was thrown down by You Shilu and chased after him.

In a house, You Shilu was changing his armor, but You Renlong did not have that kind of lost look, but said mysteriously: "Father, don't be lost, things still have a turnaround, Liaozhou City's efforts are not completely in vain." ”

Hearing this, You Shilu was stunned for a moment, and the movement of wearing armor on his hand was sluggish, and then he shook his head slightly, let out a long sigh, and said helplessly: "There is no way to turn around." ”

As if unwilling to do so in his heart, when You Shilu began to wear armor again, he further added: "Li Zicheng has already hit Yuanshi City, once this Tangbao is sent to the court, as long as it is a person with a little brain, he will know that it is fake." After all, when we received the news of Li Zicheng's attack on Yuanshi City, the imperial court must have also gotten it. After thinking about it for a while, I knew that when we recovered Liaozhou, Li Zicheng had already left. If you insist on sending this report to the pond, it is not only as simple as lying about the military situation, but also the lives of you, my father and son will also be worried. ”

However, You Shilu did not look discouraged at all, but instead showed a sly smile.

"Father, you are really smart, you are confused for a while, we just need to modify the content of the Tang newspaper slightly, cross out the names of Li Zicheng and other snitch leaders, and only leave the word rebel army instead, isn't it still a great achievement?"

Hearing this, You Shilu's movements froze again, a bright color flashed in his eyes, and You Renlong reminded again: "Father, Shanxi is full of rebels today, and there are countless leaders, let's send the Tangbao newspaper up, only talk about the extermination of the rebel army of 1,300 people, who can say whether it is true or false?" ”

In an instant, You Shilu almost slapped his thigh, wanting to praise his son, but he still held back the excitement, hurriedly put on his armor, and at the same time took the Tang Newspaper, came to the bookcase, and left only one sentence before writing hard: "Okay, I will redraft a copy of the original Tang Newspaper now." ”

At the same time, in the Imperial City of Jingshi, thousands of miles away, as soon as he received the excerpt that Li Zicheng was attacking Yuanshi City, Chongzhen's heart suddenly panicked, and he summoned Zhou Yanru, the head of the cabinet, and Zhang Fengyi, the secretary of the military department.

As the secretary of the military department and the head of the cabinet, how could Zhou Yanru and Zhang Fengyi not know about the affairs of Yuanshi County?

Therefore, as soon as he heard that the emperor let him enter the palace, and then looked at Emperor Chongzhen's face at this time, his face sank like water, and without waiting for his reprimand, the two of them discussed on the road, Zhang Fengyi immediately stood up, and said before Chongzhen: "Emperor Qiqi, as soon as Weichen received the urgent document from Yuanshi City, he immediately issued an order to the commander of the two thousand Tongzhou soldiers and the commander of the two thousand Changping troops who had just left Shuntian Mansion, asking them to suspend the rendezvous with Lu Xiangsheng, the soldier of the Daimyo Dao, and immediately divert to Yuanshi City. If nothing happens, it's time to engage the rebels. ”

"Moreover, Weichen also issued a letter to Liang Fu, the chief soldier of Baoding Mansion, and Lu Xiangsheng, the chief soldier of the Daimyo Dao, as well as You Shilu and other general soldiers, asking them to immediately stop entanglement with other chaotic troops, rush to the aid of Yuanshi City, and attack Li Zicheng's chaotic army on three sides."

After a series of hurried words, Zhang Fengyi was a little panting, his cheeks were slightly red, and he saw Chongzhen's face slowing down and looking much better, so he immediately promised: "Your Majesty, Weichen dares to guarantee with Xiang Shang's head, if Li Zicheng's rebellious army is still in Yuanshi City, and he dares to continue to go north to make trouble, he will definitely be able to completely exterminate it and prevent future troubles." ”

Obviously, Zhang Fengyi has great confidence at this moment, and the three armies together definitely exceed 10,000 people. If such a comparison of forces is not enough to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng's chaotic army, he Zhang Fengyi is willing to be killed by the neck, and he is willing to die!

Chongzhen's heart was still settled, without the panic at the beginning, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zhang Fengyi deeply, and asked in a low voice: "Zhang Shangshu, what kind of character is Li Zicheng?" In the first half of last year, he was just a little-known small leader of bandits, but since the beginning of the rebellion in Pingyang Mansion, he has been out of control, and he has become famous among all kinds of anti-thieves, and his momentum has directly chased the leaders of Zijin Liang Wang for his own use and King Gao Yingxiang of Chuang, but now it has become the climate. ”

Zhou Yanru and Zhang Fengyi showed surprise at the same time, they didn't expect the emperor to know Li Zicheng so well?

However, after thinking about it for a while, the two felt that there was nothing surprising that the emperor had the brocade guard in his hands. With Jin Yiwei's terrifying ability to gather intelligence and spy on people's privacy, what is it not easy for the Emperor to know?

Although this information echoed in his mind, Zhang Fengyi felt that the emperor already knew everything about Li Zicheng, but he still answered the questions honestly and told everything about Li Zicheng.

However, Li Zicheng, as the protagonist, had already led his Li family army hundreds of miles away from the shield to cross the Huangze Pass and enter the territory of Taiyuan Mansion in Shanxi Province when the sky was about to darken.
