Sun Kewang sneered: "I guess the Jiangbei Army will not send troops at all." ”

"Although the training of the new army is rigorous, it has never been on the battlefield, and it is still a little worse. This time, the new army first sent troops to Shandong, probably to train the troops, so that the recruits could crawl around in Shandong, and then come to Henan to fight against us. ”

In the first battle of winter, the Chuang army ate the three battalions of the new army, which shocked the top of the new army, and the obvious condescending attitude and contempt for the rebels disappeared. This time, the response of the new army in Zhili was also very conservative, and Xu Ping realized that this showed that the new army had regarded the new army as an opponent that should not be taken lightly. Although this change is proud, Xu Ping can feel the heavy pressure on his shoulders. The New Army Group, composed of 12 battalions, has nearly 50,000 elite officers and men, and none of the generals under Xu Ping dares to say that they can meet it head-on, and it is bound to be another arduous defensive battle.

"I think we should storm Kaifeng immediately, so as not to be caught between them inside and outside." Luo Rucai's words caused a low echo.

Militarily speaking, Kaifeng can have a stable rear in hand, which can free up more troops to meet the new army, and the reserves of Kaifeng urgently need to break into the camp, whether it is gold and silver or pig iron, or a large number of craftsmen inside, can provide great help for the formation of new troops in the camp, of course, the longer the better, so the Kaifeng City is also the sooner the better.

However, Xu Ping shook his head and said to Luo Rucai: "King Cao, the fighting spirit in the city has not yet been lost, many people are still very afraid of our army, and the people's hearts have not been dispersed. What's more, there is also the Shanlan battalion of the new army, this battalion has a large number of firearms, and the defensive ability is very considerable. ”

"Then you shouldn't exchange food with the city, and when the defenders start eating people, the army and the people will naturally be separated." Luo Rucai mentioned this issue again, which gave Xu Ping a great headache, and almost no one in the camp agreed with his actions.

"But it may also be broken and broken, and after eating people, the Kaifeng defenders will feel that they have done something that is not human anyway, and they will simply fight to the death with our army. Besides, those defender soldiers whose families were eaten, there will also be many people who will put this account on the heads of our army. Xu Ping added without hesitation: "When the world is peaceful, they are also our people, and they will also provide us with food." ”

Xu Ping saw that the surrounding generals showed a confused look on their faces after hearing this, and Luo Rucai glared and asked, "Brother Xu, what does this mean?" Do you still want to surrender the officers and soldiers? ”

However, without waiting for Xu Ping to explain, Luo Rucai showed a suddenly realized expression, and looked at Li Zicheng with a smile: "King Chuang, have you heard it, your subordinates are looking forward to you sitting in the country." ”

At this time, all the generals who broke into the camp and Cao Ying came back to their senses, everyone laughed and laughed, and Li Dingguo also laughed, only Sun Kewang's face was solemn, and he frowned and asked loudly: "Is this ridiculous?" ”

Li Zicheng looked calm, and said calmly and calmly: "Brothers, there must be a hope. ”

Luo Rucai stared at Li Zicheng for a long time, and then burst out laughing: "It turns out that it's not Brother Xu's idea, but King Chuang's thoughts." ”

The generals who broke into the camp all stopped laughing, and Luo Rucai's voice became louder and louder: "When King Chuang sits in the south and faces north, what kind of official is Brother Feng?" How about the side by side? ”

"King Cao," Xu Ping said: "The emperor takes turns, and he will come to my house next year, and there will be a catastrophe for three hundred years since ancient times, how can King Chuang not sit in this world?" ”

"I've heard that saints are born with visions, that is, they stay in their mother's womb for five or six months longer than us." Luo Rucai couldn't stop laughing, and pointed at Li Zicheng and Xu Ping: "Let's think about it more, we don't even have a province yet." ”

These words made many generals sigh softly, and Sun Kewang, who was standing on the side, interjected coldly: "Then what does King Cao think, when will we be thieves?" ”

"It's the same as your dead ghost godfather," Luo Rucai replied without thinking, "If the imperial court really sincerely recruits peace one day, we will not have no way to live." If the court wants us to die, then one more day is a day, if it really doesn't work, Lao Tzu has killed people all over the pit and valley in his life, and he has not lost money. ”

After the military discussion, the generals of the two battalions of Chuang and Cao dispersed, and only Xu Ping, Liu Zongmin and Niu Jinxing remained by Li Zicheng's side. While they were talking, Sun Kewang, who had turned back, suddenly entered the tent, he strode towards Li Zicheng, and asked loudly: "King Chuang, how can you still tolerate Cao Cao?" ”

Without waiting for Li Zicheng to speak, Xu Ping smiled slightly: "How does the bird know the ambition of the bird?" ”

"If you don't understand the ambition of the bird, you are in trouble." Sun Kewang shouted: "King Chuang is determined to seize the world, so he will fight for troops and calm the people and win the hearts of the people." And Cao Cao is bent on being a thief until he dies, he will not treat the people well, if we really want to win the world, then we can't tolerate him......"

"Now King Cao is still good to the people, he has a covenant with me, and he will not infringe on the people." Li Zicheng signaled to Sun Kewang that he didn't need to say much: "When King Cao and I joined forces, they agreed with each other not to attack each other and fight against the Ming together. ”

"King Chuang is right." Liu Zongmin nodded again and again.

"Cao Cao, he agreed not to disturb the people, but he just held the idea that the rabbit would not eat the grass next to the nest, he was completely different from us to protect the people and protect the land." Sun Kewang retorted dissatisfiedly: "We can't tolerate him here. ”

Li Zicheng shook his head and said, "Brother Cao didn't do anything to be sorry for me, I can't bombard him away." ”

Liu Zongmin echoed: "I think King Chuang is right. ”

Niu Jinxing, who had been watching coldly, suddenly said loudly: "King Chuang, I think Brother Sun is right. ”

Li Zicheng glanced at Xu Ping, who was still pondering, and he waved his hand to indicate that the discussion of this issue was over: "Brother Sun, since you are here, let's talk about your views on Sichuan, the situation is very bad with Brother Gao now." ”

The Henan Chuang Army has stopped transporting grain to Sichuan.

Yang Zhan, the Ming general in southern Sichuan, did not slaughter the people, but gathered the displaced people, organized them to start production, and also selected the strong soldiers from the displaced people to stick to the danger. Yang Zhan not only made the people of southern Sichuan feel stable, but also made the lack of materials Gao Yigong helpless, several times that of Yang Zhanjun's army, and the daily consumption was much higher than that of the Ming army in southern Sichuan. Since the production in central Sichuan had been completely destroyed by the Ming army, Gao Yigong estimated that before attacking southern Sichuan, the Chuang army and the people of Chengdu and Chongqing would starve to death. Since it was impossible to go south, Gao Yigong planned to go north and forcibly enter Shaanxi, if he could defeat the Qin army by luck, the army could open up a new base area; Even if it fails, it can contain the Qin army for a period of time and reduce the pressure on the Henan army.

Before Sun Kewang came in, Xu Ping and Niu Jinxing had already expressed their agreement with Gao Yigong's plan. Li Zicheng, who was originally hesitant, made up his mind and no longer persuaded Gao Yigong to return to Henan: "Okay, if Brother Gao brings the people of Sichuan back, the food in Henan may not be enough." ”

After leaving Li Zicheng's camp, Sun Kewang looked around at the left and right, and asked Xu Ping directly: "What does Brother Xu think of Cao Cao's affairs?" ”

"King Cao has tens of thousands of trigrams, including more than 2,000 elite cavalry, if he is blown away, our army's losses will not be small. If we talk about fighting with King Cao, we will not only be guarding against the Ming army in the future. Back then, King Chuang and King Cao made an alliance, and they would rather spend money to support him, not only because they valued his strength, but also because they were worried that he would come to rob the peasants under our rule, which would be harmful to our army's plan to defend the land. ”

Sun Kewang stroked his palms and laughed: "If I don't do it, I won't stop it, if I am the king of Chuang, I will kill him and take his army." ”

"King Chuang's promise is well-known, if he kills Cao Cao for no reason, it will inevitably disappoint the heroes of the world."

Sun Kewang glanced at Xu Ping, and seeing that his face didn't seem to be joking, he argued: "What is the Son of Heaven?" How can a strong soldier and a strong man become a big thing? ”

"Today, King Chuang took Cao Cao's army for no reason and killed Cao Cao's people, aren't you afraid that King Chuang will take your camp tomorrow and kill your head?"

"How can Cao Cao compare to me?" Sun Kewang hesitated for a moment, patted his chest and said: "I have land in my hands, I have an army, and I also obey the orders of King Chuang, as long as he treats me well after King Chuang seizes the world, I also support him as the emperor, why should King Chuang kill me?" ”

Although he said this, Sun Kewang pondered for a while, nodded and said, "It is true that you can't persuade King Chuang to kill King Cao for no reason. ”

On April 20, Gao Yigong in Chengdu ordered the whole Sichuan army to go north.

Long before Gao Yigong wrote a letter to Li Zicheng asking to go north, he had already made up his mind, and the vanguard had already been dispatched. Today's army leaving Chengdu was mixed with a large number of people, and they helped the old and the young to set off together with the rearguard troops of the army. After Henan stopped transporting grain to Sichuan, the people of Sichuan knew that they would not be able to survive this winter, and many people went to Yangzhan in southern Sichuan, which is the only place in Sichuan that still has grain and may have a harvest this year. Gao Yigong does not interfere with this. Those Sichuan people who were worried that the Ming army would kill again followed the Chuang army to advance and retreat, and their only hope at the moment was to follow the Chuang army into Shaanxi.

Two days later, it was confirmed that the Chuang army had abandoned Chongqing and then Chengdu after the news reached southern Sichuan, and the 30,000 Ming soldiers under the general army Yang Zhan were all smiling. More than ninety percent of these 30,000 Ming troops were recruits, who were selected by Yang Zhan from among the people, and if they were put into a field battle, they would not be the enemy of the other party's army at all. Relying on the dangerous terrain in southern Sichuan, they were able to keep Gao Yigong out of the country. If it weren't for the fact that other Ming armies completely destroyed production in most areas of Sichuan, making it impossible for Gao Yigong to persist in the war, Yang Zhan would not have had much confidence to keep the land in southern Sichuan for the imperial court.

"Kill pigs and sheep, and reward the three armies." Yang Zhan was overjoyed, but he also did not forget to instruct the left and right: "Send more food to the towns, they must also celebrate." ”

After the Ming army completely destroyed the grain production in Sichuan, southern Sichuan shouldered the task of supplying grain and grass to other Sichuan army units, and now there are millions of people in southern Sichuan, which is the most densely populated area. Now that the army has retreated, and the autumn harvest is in sight, Yang Zhan thinks that it is okay to be a little more relaxed.

A few days later, Yang Zhan smiled and went home with an invitation. The general soldiers of all towns of the Sichuan army rushed to southern Sichuan, and they jointly invited Yang Zhan to the banquet and publicly recommended him as the first meritorious service for defending Sichuan. Yang Zhan recalled that when he fought with the Chuang army for more than a year, no matter which friendly army reached the end of the road, Yang Zhan would give money, food, and soldiers to help them regain their vitality. Of course, there are fair and honest reasons for this, but in fact, Yang Zhan also has his own selfish intentions in private, and he hopes to have a good relationship with all his colleagues in the Sichuan army, so that he can one day become the leader of the Sichuan army.

Today, this wish has finally come true, Yang Zhan proudly showed the invitation to his wife, which was densely filled with the signatures of the generals of the Sichuan army: "Frustrate the thieves' peeps into southern Sichuan and Yunnan, and recover Chongqing and Chengdu, the emperor and the elders of the court and the central cabinet must be overjoyed." I have never offended any of my colleagues, they have all benefited from me, and it seems that I am the military governor of Sichuan. ”

Yang Zhan is a good drinker by nature, and he is not happy when he eats, even when he is inspecting military affairs on the front line, the food is simple. It should also be accompanied by a jug of wine before it can be swallowed. At lunch today, his youngest son saw that his father was happy, so he poured a large glass of wine for Yang Zhan, and stood by with a wine jug and waited, thinking that his father would make three glasses in a row. I didn't want Yang Zhan to push the wine glass far away unusually, lowered his eyelids and didn't look at it, just picked up the bowl and began to eat: "Don't drink, don't drink, I won't drink a drop of wine this meal." ”

Mrs. Yang asked strangely, "Master, why is this?" ”

"I'm going to a banquet in the evening." Yang Zhan explained: "In the Sichuan army, who doesn't know that I, Yang Zhan, has a lot of wine, and I am not drunk with a thousand cups? At the banquet, everyone will definitely toast me, and if I don't have enough alcohol to drink anyone, maybe it will make that person's heart unhappy, how can I be a commander in the future? ”

Mrs. Yang smiled: "The master is inevitably too careful, what does it matter if there is a glass of wine." Besides, this time the lord has made a lot of contributions, so that the lord will not be able to serve the military affairs of Sichuan. ”

"Who says I can't do it? But the more I am in a high position, the more humble I must be, if I make others think that I look down on others as soon as Yang Zhan is promoted, then how can I work together in the future? Besides, I haven't been to be. ”

Mrs. Yang didn't say anything more, turned around and smiled at the children at the table and said, "Look at your father, the military general who claims to be great, but he is so cautious behind his back. ”

Several children also laughed, and the youngest son, who was going to pour wine for his father, had already put down the flask and replied to his mother with a smile: "The child thinks that his father has done a great job, and only by being in harmony with his colleagues can he survive a hundred battles and keep the family peaceful for generations." ”

After eating, Yang Zhan rushed to the banquet with his two sons, his own soldiers, and his family. Although the army had gone far, Yang Zhan was not defenseless, and his eldest son was still monitoring the direction of Chengdu on the defensive line in southern Sichuan at this time.

There was no drinking at noon, Yang Zhan's throat was itchy, and the rush along the way made Yang Zhan even more thirsty that smoke was almost coming out of his throat. While galloping on his horse, he comforted himself in his heart: it would be good to wait until the banquet venue arrived, wouldn't it be much happier to have a drink with a large number of colleagues tonight than to drink at home?

Without waiting for Yang Zhan to dismount, the generals of the Sichuan army greeted them out of the tent one after another, all of them were wearing red official uniforms, and the tension when the army was approaching step by step in the past was swept away. Seeing them like this, Yang Zhan, who was still fully armored, was also a little surprised, he repeatedly bowed his hand to the Sichuan army colleagues one by one, and whispered to a few friends when he was free: "The army has just been gone for a few days, let's be careful!" ”

The generals of the Sichuan Army, who were Yang Zhan's friends, were unimpressed, and one of them replied: "The high thieves are coerced by millions of civilians, and they can't travel more than ten miles a day, and the movement is so big, do you still want to hide it from our ears and eyes?" ”

No one was worried that the army would go and return. First of all, the invasion army left because Nachuan Nan was helpless; Secondly, the army relocated the people of Chengdu and Chongqing, and it is impossible for the army to mobilize the people in such a way as a suspicious strategy. In fact, Yang Zhan also thought so in his heart, seeing that everyone had the same opinion, and he also felt that he was a little worried, he laughed, and took off his armor and changed into the official robe of the Ming military general.

The two sons who came with Yang Zhan were also high-grade court military attachés, and the father and son put on the black yarn upright, Yang Zhan was in front and the two sons were behind, both holding the jade belt around their waists with one hand and swaying lightly with the other hand, striding into the tent of the banquet. The Yang family's pro-soldiers and family members followed behind the head of the family and the young master with a relaxed face.

Everyone wanted Yang Zhan to sit in the first seat, and he couldn't refuse, so he sat down in the center beautifully. Yang Zhan asked his two sons to sit at the end of the next head, and the two sons promised to leave, but they were stopped by several Sichuan army commanders. The rank of the general soldier is far above the two Yang family boys, and they are the characters of their two uncles and uncles, but several general soldiers unanimously want the two Xiao Yang generals to sit in the middle with their father. Sitting in front of so many seniors was of course a faux pas, but no matter how they excused themselves, Yang Zhan's two sons looked at their father with embarrassed faces.

Seeing that his son wanted to take other people's politeness seriously, Yang Zhan hurriedly got up from his seat and scolded his pair of sons. At the same time, I hurriedly gave in and apologized again and again for my poor tutoring, but the generals of the Sichuan army did not relent: "This is not a military discussion, why bother with the celebration banquet being so exquisite!" Yang Shuai, you see, aren't our children and nephews all sitting with us? ”

Yang Zhan raised his eyes and saw that sure enough, everyone's children and nephews were sitting with their elders, so he no longer insisted, and his mouth inevitably apologized a few times. The other generals of the Sichuan army all laughed: "Yang Shuai is too polite, we have all taken Yang Shuai's grain and grass these days, haven't we never seen anyone outside?" ”

Yang Zhan thought in his heart that this was indeed the case, he had given so much grain and grass, of course others would respect him. After finally sitting down, Yang Zhan felt that he was so thirsty that fire was about to erupt in his throat, and he shouted at the smiling faces of his comrades in the room, "It's time for us to drink, right?" ”

"Exactly, exactly."

The generals of the Sichuan army in the camp echoed one after another, and many people shouted: "It's time to drink, right?" ”

"Good!" A general soldier of the Sichuan army clapped his hands again and again and yelled: "Wine!" ”
