On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, in Xingyang City, Li Zicheng's residence, in the study, Li Zicheng and Tian Jianxiu, Gao Yigong, Gu Junen and others gathered together to discuss tomorrow's Xingyang Conference, Liu Fangliang couldn't help but laugh and said: "Boss, Chongzhen Xiao'er is really interesting enough, since Chen Qiyu has been found guilty, slandered others, and shirked responsibility, he actually did not rehabilitate Lian Guoshi and others." ”

Without waiting for Li Zicheng to respond, Gu Junen answered instead: "Captain Liu, what's so strange about this?" Imagine that back then, when Yuan Chonghuan was sentenced to several major crimes, there was a felony of killing Mao Wenlong without permission, and Mao Wenlong was not rehabilitated. ”

"Okay, let's ignore the dirty things in the imperial court, let's discuss how to deal with tomorrow's Xingyang Conference? How to entertain the 13 families and 72 battalions of rebels? Li Zicheng waved his hand and said calmly.

At this moment, as if he had thought of something, Tian Jianxiu showed hesitation on his face, and suddenly interjected: "Boss, before this, I just received a piece of news, and my subordinates think that you should know." ”

"Oh... What's the news? Li Zicheng asked curiously, and the others looked at Tian Jianxiu together.

"Boss, that's the case, according to the news from our brother's investigation, before Zhang Xianzhong came to Xingyang, he once sent a group of people, disguised as ordinary people, and mixed into Fengyang City, there were hundreds of people, looking at what he meant, after the Xingyang Conference ended, it seemed that he wanted to attack Fengyang."

"Moreover, there are other leaders, such as Lao Huihui, Guotianxing, Mixed 100,000 and others, who only brought some of their men this time, and the main force stayed at the junction of Nanyang Mansion and Runing Mansion. After the Xingyang Conference, they should also have big actions. ”

"Haha... Boss, God help us. Gu Junen laughed, his face full of excitement, and continued: "In this way, even if we don't call for anything at the Xingyang Conference, just by virtue of the actions of these leaders, the main army of the imperial court will be attracted to Henan. ”

"Especially Fengyang Mansion, which is where the royal ancestral tomb is located, the land of Longxing, once it is lost, it is bound to shock the government and the opposition, and the world will be in an uproar. When the time comes, it will be almost impossible to think of whether the imperial court's army will move south. ”

Hearing these words, Li Zicheng's mind suddenly appeared some information, read some vague content, historically, after Gao Yingxiang and others conquered Fengyang Mansion, and Zhang Xianzhong not only excavated the royal ancestral tomb, but also burned Zhu Yuanzhang's "Huangjue Temple".

For a time, the world was in an uproar, the emperor was furious, and if the officials and generals guarding Fengyang had not been killed, almost all of them would have been killed by Chongzhen!

As soon as he thought of this, Li Zicheng also smiled, and couldn't help but say, "Hehe... Strategist, you're right, as soon as I dozed off, someone brought me a pillow. ”

Speaking of this, after a pause, Li Zicheng's face suddenly showed a bad smile, and he continued evilly: "Not only that, after taking Fengyang, we will also add fuel to the fire, instigate Zhang Xianzhong, let him dig the royal ancestral tomb, burn the Huangjue Temple, and completely detonate Zhu Youzhen's anger." At that time, there will be a major earthquake and tsunami in the officialdom of the Central Plains, and there will be a bloodbath! ”

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, their eyes were round, their mouths were slightly open, and they were full of excitement, their hearts fluctuated, and their stomachs were slandered.

It's too bad, the boss is too bad, it's okay to burn the Huangjue Temple, since ancient times, digging people's ancestral graves, this is a big enemy, and it doesn't stop dying.

At that time, once the royal ancestral tomb is dug up, it will inevitably cause the emperor's monstrous anger, and it will make Zhang Xianzhong fall into a dangerous situation, and he will be surrounded and suppressed by the heavy soldiers of the official army, and he will be frantically chased and killed, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, killing two birds with one stone!

Thinking of this, everyone has a feeling of venting evil spirits, all along, Zhang Xianzhong has been targeting Li Jiajun everywhere, giving the old ambassador a small stumbling block from time to time, and sticking a knife in the back, and now he can finally fight back.

It's so relieving, it's so relieving!

This is the common voice of everyone, a tacit consensus, looking at each other, you can see the smile in each other's eyebrows.

At the same time, Li Zicheng coughed lightly, as if he didn't see the strange eyes of everyone, and changed his words: "Okay, now let's talk, what should we say at tomorrow's conference, in order to lead the future direction of the rebel army from all walks of life?" In order to allow the various leaders to mainly attack the state capital and county south of the Yellow River, so as to cover Mr. Song and their support for the construction of Shanxi's base area? ”

......

The next day, in Xingyang City, there were wandering rebel soldiers, all dressed in ragged clothes, or ordinary people's clothes, or dressed in gorgeous clothes, but they still matched nondescriptly.

However, no matter how the rebel army's subordinates look, no matter how unscrupulous, they all have a common characteristic, that is, there is no trouble for the people in the city, and when they enter and leave the place of fireworks or the restaurant, they will abide by the minimum rules and will never eat for nothing!

For a time, the performance of the rebel army from all walks of life made the people in the city look sideways, so that they had a new understanding of the rebel army.

In a deep mansion compound in the city, the guard is tight, and there are rebel soldiers standing guard everywhere, five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, and there are groups of rebel troops patrolling back and forth, and the elite armor and sharp weapons are equipped with soldiers.

Just judging from the mental outlook of these soldiers, they are definitely the elite of the elite who belong to the rebel army.

In the courtyard outside the hall, there stood a group of rebel troops, dressed differently, with different numbers, and at first glance they belonged to different rebel leaders, with mixed personnel and different qualities, but they also represented the most elite combat power of the rebel armies from all walks of life.

At this moment, in the huge hall, there were nearly 100 people sitting, gathered the leaders of the 13 families and 72 battalions, and sat down according to their prestige and strength.

Directly above the hall, sat Gao Yingxiang and Luo Rucai, one of whom had a very high reputation in the rebel army, and the other was sociable and had good friendships with the leaders of the various rebel armies.

On the left and right sides of the hall, it was Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong who sat at the head, followed by the leaders of the thirteen families and seventy-two battalions, including Lao Huihui, Ge Liyan, Zuo Jin King, Reincarnated King, Shooting the Heavens, Mixed One Hundred Thousand, Guotianxing, Nine Dragons, and Shuntian King.

At this time, Li Zicheng stood up, left his seat, and walked slowly, first nodding to Gao Yingxiang and Luo Rucai, and then looking at everyone, he had come to the center of the hall, stood there, and said at the same time: "Leaders, the reason why we invite everyone to come is nothing more than the direction of the future, how everyone can cooperate to the greatest extent, so as to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the official army." ”

Speaking of this, Li Zicheng's speech slowed down slightly, but his voice rose a few points.

"From the battles with the official army over the years, it is not difficult to draw a conclusion, if they fight alone, if they go their own way, the rebel army will not escape the end of the imperial court being defeated one by one. Only by cooperating with each other and providing support as much as possible without affecting each other's actions can we maximize everyone's interests. ”

"As we all know, although our rebel army has a great advantage in numbers, its combat strength is far from comparable to the regular army of the imperial court. However, we also have our advantages, that is, it is convenient to replenish troops, the strength grows rapidly, and we can move anywhere at will to carry out mobile operations. ”

"Although the imperial court carried out reforms and established the post of governor of the five provinces, it could not change the fact that the generals in charge of the operation had their own evil intentions and feared each other. Even at the most critical moments, they will intrigue with each other and make each other stumble. ”
