The Emperor of the Apocalypse then smiled.

He immediately glanced back at Zhang Jingyi: "What news is there in the capital?" ”

"The minister has blocked this area, and there is no movement in the capital for the time being, but if you think about it, it should be soon."

The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled and said, "Next, it should be Li Zicheng...... I want to see it, this Li Zicheng...... It's a few pounds and a few taels. ”

After that, the Emperor of the Apocalypse went back to his tent to rest.

In fact, he didn't sleep all night, and he thought about many things.

And on this side, Zhang Xianzhong was already confused at this time with a huge number of people.

Looking back at the people who followed them, many had smiles on their faces.

Actually, this is understandable.

Although he didn't win, he survived.

Isn't that something to be thankful for?

And these days I eat mutton every day, so many people are radiant.

Some people even wore gray coats given by the Donglin Army, which they were very precious, this was a high-quality fabric, and the most important thing was to wear it extremely warm.

During the Xiaoice River period, the weather was extremely extreme, and the winter was extremely cold, and rogues like them fought everywhere, and most of the time they did not necessarily die under the sword of the officers and soldiers, but fought against this God.

Now that I wear this coat, I have an indescribable warmth, a feeling that was difficult to experience in the past.

The dry food on the back, the beef jerky...... It tastes very good, and the thought of having food on my body makes my heart feel much more steady.

At this time, everyone no longer had the initial panic and began to talk about the capture with great interest.

Zhang Xianzhong heard the noisy voice, and even in this voice, there were occasional laughter.

He didn't know what to say for a while.

What does it look like?

Is this still anti-military?

Suddenly, Zhang Xianzhong thought of something, and suddenly slapped his head on the horse: "Oops......"

"Father-in-law, what's wrong?" Sun Kewang saw that his father-in-law was suddenly so excited, and he couldn't help but say.

Zhang Xianzhong suddenly said sadly: "Now that I think about it, didn't Brother Gao die in vain?" ”

“……”

All of a sudden, many people showed a sad look.

Originally, Gao Yingxiang's suicide was a very tragic thing.

But such a tragic act, looking back now, it is quite ridiculous.

Isn't this dead in vain?

If you don't die, don't you end up with Zhang Xianzhong, and release it directly, maybe you can raise two catties of meat in the next few days.

Zhang Xianzhong was emotional at the moment, and couldn't help but say sadly: "Brother Gao, Brother Gao, you are wise and confused for a while." “

Thinking of this, Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help sighing, and couldn't help but write a poem again: "My brother Gao Yingxiang, brave and wise, died in vain today, go to his old lady!" ”

Sun Kewang: "......"

The mighty men and horses went south, and soon they were met with scouts.

This is the Wuchang side.

It turned out that Li Zicheng's troops were crossing the Yellow River at this time, so a large number of scouts were released, for fear that there would be interceptions by officials and troops around them.

As soon as these scouts saw a large-scale military horse, they were extremely cautious, until they recognized the identity of Zhang Xianzhong and others, and soon, someone came to see them, but it was Liu Zongmin who came to pay homage to Zhang Xianzhong.

Zhang Xianzhong waited for Liu Zongmin to salute, and Liu Zongmin said: "Why is General Zhang here, I don't know if King Chuang is here?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong was ashamed for a while: "We encountered the official army, we were defeated, King Chuang was dead, and I escaped with my subordinates." ”

Liu Zongmin was shocked: "When did the official army become so powerful?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong couldn't answer for a while.

However, although Liu Zongmin is an unruly and reckless person, but in the face of Zhang Xianzhong, he did not dare to make a mistake, he knew that Zhang Xianzhong's army was defeated at this time, and he must be ashamed, at this time it was not appropriate for him to expose General Zhang's scars, so he no longer asked: "My lord is twenty miles away, why don't General Zhang join forces with us and discuss the plan." ”

Zhang Xianzhong also had nowhere to go at this time.

Continue to attack Nanzhili, and then dig up the ancestral grave of the faint king?

To be honest, now that the faint gentleman has let himself go, he is embarrassed to do so.

In his opinion, he can continue to be a thief now, and even fight to the death with that faint king in the future.

But you have to have a conscience, you can't let people let you go, you turn around and run to dig up the tombs of your ancestors.

And Guanzhong and Henan, because of the disasters year after year, can no longer gain a foothold.

Thinking about it, it seems that only Li Zicheng can defect.

So he nodded: "You come to lead the way, I'll go to meet Brother Li first." ”

Saying that, with Liu Zongmin, he asked Sun Kewang to order a few personal soldiers to follow, and went to see Li Zicheng first.

Li Zicheng's side, at this time, is full of worries, thinking about the great cause of entering the army every day, this is the most critical moment, the mighty army of 100,000 is crossing the river, and there can be no mistakes, so he is extremely vigilant.

These days, there are quite a few gentry who give him advice, especially the scholars led by Sun Zhiji, who have proposed the follow-up work for him to enter the capital.

For example, it was announced that the original civil and military ministers of the Ming Dynasty would be retained, and only eunuchs and military ministers like eunuchs and Zhang Jingyi would be killed.

He also drafted a proclamation of amnesty to the world, so that the hearts of the people could be reassured.

At the same time, Sun Zhiqi was also very enthusiastic and made a longer-term plan for Li Zicheng.

"My lord." Sun Zhiqi was in Li Zicheng's account at this time, he saluted, and then said: "The student heard that the faint king is still in Guangping Mansion, so when he arrives in Guangping Mansion, I am afraid that there will be an unusually vicious battle, the lord Shenwu will be able to teach the faint monarch to be captured, but it is not enough to take the faint monarch, but it is not enough, the court side, if the emperor is lost, there will be a new emperor in the capital, this point, the change of the civil fort is an example, therefore, the student's suggestion is to take the Guangping Mansion, the lord should call himself the king as soon as possible, in order to calm the world, and then reward the generals, and then recruit the rebellion, Slowly besiege the capital. The students calculated that the Ming Dynasty would definitely recruit people and horses, but as long as the lord played the banner of determining the world, there would be righteous teachers in various places to respond, and at that time, those soldiers and horses of King Qin would not be worried. ”

Li Zicheng put his hands behind his back and only bowed his head: "Hmm......"

Sun Zhiqi smiled again and said, "There is one more thing. ”

Li Zicheng looked at Sun Zhiqi: "Why don't you talk about it together." ”

"This ......," Sun Zhiqi looked left and right.

Left and right are Li Laiheng and others.

When Li Laiheng saw that Sun Zhiqi wanted to avoid himself, he immediately showed displeasure.

Li Zicheng said: "There are no outsiders here. ”

Sun Zhiqi smiled awkwardly and said: "At present, the lord has a big trouble, that is Gao and Zhang, these two also have 100,000 soldiers, and they are in full swing. The lord wants to set the world, how can these two people not be troubled by the heart? ”

When Li Zicheng heard this, he immediately showed displeasure.

Li Laiheng scolded angrily: "What are these words, do you want to sacrifice my eldest brother for injustice?" ”

Sun Zhiqi smiled and patiently explained: "It has always been a king and a loser, even if the lord doesn't do it, I'm afraid that some people will take risks." This is what students hope the Lord will take precautions against. Lord, when the judgment is constantly suffering, it will be chaotic. So...... The students thought that once they won the faint king, they should immediately design and invite Na Gao and Zhang to the big tent to eat and drink, and take this opportunity to take down Na Gao and Zhang! ”

Li Laiheng was furious and said, "Big brother, don't listen to him, this person is full of bad water!"

Li Zicheng also said: "At the beginning, I had a few brothers with King Chuang and Zhang Xian, but I burned yellow paper and became brothers. Is there a doctrine of fratricide? What's more, if it really comes to that time, if everyone wants to be the emperor, then it's nothing, it's a big deal to set up a position and fight a male and female, how can you deceive people into plotting to kill, if you do such things, then it is really better to be a pig and a dog. ”

Sun Zhiqi: "......"

This Sun Zhiqi was embarrassed for a while, and he wanted to persuade him.

But there is a humane: "General Zhang is here......"

Li Zicheng listened to the report, and was immediately shocked, and couldn't help but say: "Brother Zhang's people, I know it, they are all extremely brave, how can they be defeated......

After that, he immediately got out of the big tent, got on his horse, and hurried out of the camp with a team of people to meet him.

Zhang Xianzhong welcomed this Zhang Xianzhong, Li Laiheng and others in the big tent have prepared a banquet, a few meat dishes, a few pots of wine, everyone sat down, Zhang Xianzhong said that Gao Yingxiang committed suicide, the army was defeated, and said that this official army was very powerful, and finally he was released.

Li Zicheng was dumbfounded.

"Do the officers and soldiers have such combat power?"

Zhang Xianzhong said: "I don't want to increase the popularity of others, but that's actually the case." Now, I am desperate, and now there are nearly 100,000 people around me, and there is nowhere to go. ”

Li Zicheng knew Zhang Xianzhong's thoughts, he took care of the case, and said: "If Brother Zhang doesn't dislike it, he will temporarily join forces with me, you and my brothers, regardless of each other." ”

Zhang Xianzhong obviously can only have this plan: "There is labor." ”

Li Zicheng said again: "In this way...... This thief army is very powerful, but it should not be underestimated. ”

They are all rogues and never do anything like eggs touching stones.

Li Zicheng said: "I won't tell you, I have a brother in the capital, and I am choosing an opportunity to prepare to teach this dog emperor to catch fire in his backyard, so this is a godsend, so this time I am in a hurry to bring my brothers here, but now...... But it teaches people to advance and retreat. What does Brother Zhang think. ”

Zhang Xianzhong is also a person who wants to save face, I can't say I'm afraid, let's go back to Wuchang.

Zhang Xianzhong coughed: "Seeing Brother Li again today, I have mixed feelings in my heart, I really don't want to, I see each other like this, my face is very gloomy, but I also have mixed feelings." Now that it's time to do this, I won't hide it from you, if you retreat, this officer and army will be very brave, and sooner or later they will be chased and killed, and at that time, they will be defeated sooner or later. Since Brother Li thinks that this is a God-given opportunity, why not take this opportunity to go all out, and wait for your friend in the capital to make a move, and take advantage of the fact that the officials and soldiers can't take care of each other, and beat him, although the officials and soldiers are powerful, they may not have no chance of winning. ”

Zhang Xianzhong's eyesight is still there, anyway, the longer the horizontal and vertical time drags on, the faster he will die, so he can only seize this opportunity.
