Chapter 238: Heartbeat
While speaking, the south gate of Liaozhou City has become empty, and only Li Bei's group of men and horses is standing there, with clear armor and waiting for the battle. Allowing the war horses to snort and neigh, raising their hooves from time to time, pulling the ground, and looking like they were about to move, Li Bei's troops were immovable, and they instantly rose a few points.
Li Pei didn't say anything more, and asked questions again and again, so that the generals were speechless, deafening, and silent, only the whirring sound of the cold wind echoed. Faintly, everyone could vaguely hear the screams coming from Liaozhou City.
The smell of blood wafting in more and more thick made Li Bei frown, and the others also knew in their hearts, knowing how tragic the slaughter in the city was, which made people's hearts palpitate!
The sky is getting dark, hundreds of miles away in Weihui City, Weihui Mansion, Henan, in the back of the Yamen, the lights are all over the sky, everywhere are the rebel soldiers standing guard, and there is a mixed sound of pushing the cup and changing the lamp in the hall, as well as the sound of singing and dancing.
In the midst of the gloom, there was a heated discussion between Gao Yingxiang and others.
"Haha... Congratulations to King Chuang, he finally won the Guangji Warehouse, and the recovery of his previous peak strength is just around the corner. Even if it is one step further, it is not impossible to win the position of the leader of the alliance of many rebel armies! ”
"King Chuang, for the court and ordinary people, natural disasters may be a headache and hateful thing, but for us, it is the soil for development and growth. If it is replaced by a rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, we don't know when and when we will be able to recover the lost troops, and it is really the heavens that are also towards the leader. ”
"King Chuang, there is also good news, I heard about your prestige around, and when I came to Weihui Mansion, the people and people of insight near me came to vote, and in just a few days, there were more than 3,000 people. In less than five days, our strength will exceed 50,000. ”
......
At this time, under the bright lights, Gao Yingxiangxing's head was flourishing, the whole person looked drunk, his cheeks were flushed, and after drinking a glass of wine, he looked at Zuo Jinwang who was at the banquet on one side and asked: "Zuo Jinwang, have you found out?" Why did Zuo Liangyu suddenly leave Huaiqing City and return to Zezhou in a hurry? ”
King Zuo Jin on the side hurriedly put down the wine glass in his hand, and was about to stand up to answer, but was stopped by Gao Yingxiang waving his hand.
"King Zuojin, you don't have to be like this, just sit down and answer."
"Yes, Chief." King Zuo Jin agreed, and then said slowly: "Back to King Chuang, the matter has been clarified, Zuo Liangyu returned to Zezhou for two reasons, one is that Xuan Mo wants to return to Beijing, and the second and most important point is that your nephew Li Chuang has already captured Liaozhou in Shanxi, plus Deng Xi and Tang Jiuzhou in Hui County, Zezhou's troops are extremely weak, so Zuo Liangyu will leave in a hurry and enter Zezhou City." ”
Hearing this, especially when he heard that Li Zicheng had actually captured Liaozhou, Gao Yingxiang suddenly became even more excited, and the red light on his face became even more blazing, as if he had captured Liaozhou, and couldn't help laughing.
"Haha... is worthy of my nephew Gao Yingxiang, his actions are really fast and domineering, no one can compare! ”
Speaking of this, Gao Yingxiang paused, turned to look around, his eyes were burning, his smile was even stronger, and he asked in a very happy mood: "Since my son has already hit Liaozhou, I, as an uncle, can also be left behind, and I should show something." Leaders, what do you think we can do to respond to Hongji's actions as quickly and effectively as possible? ”
In an instant, all kinds of drinking and shouting voices were stagnant, and all the leaders were stunned when they heard Gao Yingxiang's words, and they all knew very well that the reason why King Chuang did this was because he made up for his own nephew, and through the actions here, he could, Li Zicheng and others, so that they could smoothly avoid the encirclement and suppression of the official army.
After all, everyone knows very well that Liaozhou is so close to Beijing, whether it is the imperial court or the various armies in Shanxi, it is impossible to ignore it, and will definitely send heavy troops to help.
In this way, Li Zicheng, who captured Liaozhou, is equivalent to stabbing a hornet's nest!
The musician singer had left, the hall was quiet, Gao Yingxiang didn't wait long, Ge Liyan, who was sitting side by side with Yuan Zongdi on one side, said: "King Chuang, this is easy to do, we don't need to enter Shanxi, as long as the army continues to go north and capture Zhangde Mansion, it can also give the court a heavy blow." Moreover, further north, it is Shunde Mansion and Zhending Mansion, which can be opposite to Li Chuang and cooperate with each other. ”
As soon as Ge Liyan's words fell, Yuan Zongdi followed.
"Returning to the chief, according to the many inquiries of his subordinates in the past few days, in Zhangde City and Cizhou City of Zhangde Mansion, there is a granary of the official mansion, Chongyingcang and Yongyingcang. While responding to General Li Chuang, we can also get two granaries. With Chongyingcang and Yongyingcang, even if our strength is doubled, in the short term, we don't have to worry about food anymore. ”
At the beginning, when he heard Ge Liyan's proposal, Gao Yingxiang hesitated a little under his happy face, unwilling to provoke the crazy pursuit of the imperial court. However, as soon as he heard Yuan Zongdi's words, his heart suddenly moved.
In this turbulent era, all kinds of heroes rose together, no matter which leader of the rebel army, everyone knew very well in their hearts that food was more tangible and attractive than real money.
There is food in your hand, you don't panic in your heart, among the many rebel armies, food is a symbol of strength and status, and its importance is not inferior to weapons!
Not surprisingly, Gao Yingxiang's heart also had the same thought, and as soon as Yuan Zongdi's words fell, he immediately agreed.
The next morning, Li Jiajun stopped at the southwest border of Yuanshi County, Li Zicheng looked at the northeast direction, the direction of Yuanshi City, and then looked at Li Guo on the side, and calmly ordered: "Captain Li, you and He Zhen lead a thousand cavalry, immediately go to Huangze Pass, take it, firmly control it, and wait for the army to join you." ”
After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel everyone's puzzlement, Li Zicheng looked at Li Guo and He Hezhen, and further explained: "The task of the two of you is very important, almost related to the life and death of the army, whether you can safely evacuate Shunde Mansion and enter Shanxi again." ”
In an instant, everyone suddenly understood why Li Zicheng arranged it like this?
This is the plan to arrange the retreat road in advance, no matter whether or not the Yuanshi City can be captured, once the goal is achieved and the attention of the official army is successfully attracted, the troops will turn around, enter Shanxi again from Huangze Pass, make a detour from Taiyuan Mansion, meet with Guo Tianxing and others according to the plan, and then evacuate Shanxi and enter Henan.
As soon as they thought of this, Li Guo and He Zhen did not dare to delay any longer, and replied in unison: "Yes, boss, I promise to complete the task!" ”
Immediately, the two turned their horses' heads, left with a team of men and horses, and went straight to the northwest direction, which was Huang Zeguan.
Li Zicheng didn't pay any attention to the departing Li Guo and the others, looked at his subordinates, his eyes wandered on Tian Jianxiu, Gao Yigong, Liu Fangliang and others, wandering, and then showed a resolute face, and ordered loudly: "Tian Jianxiu, Liu Fangliang, give you 4,000 men and horses, responsible for attacking the north gate of Yuanshi City, and the rest of the people will fight the west gate with me." ”
"It's... Be... Yes..."
After everyone responded, Li Zicheng turned to a meaningful expression, and then explained: "You must remember that the greater the momentum of attacking Yuanshi City, the better." It doesn't matter whether we can capture Yuanshi City or not, it mainly makes the officials and guards in the city frightened, making them think that we are bound to win Yuanshi City. ”
Needless to explain, everyone understands why?
