Shaanxi! Guanzhong!

"Brother Fan! Look at the ancient capital of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the prosperous Chang'an City. Now that it has become like this, this military disaster is actually the biggest disaster in the world. Standing on the city tower, Hong Chengchou caressed the city wall with his hand, as if caressing the prosperous history of thousands of years ago.

The city wall at the foot has witnessed the prosperity and decline of Chang'an City for thousands of years. Thinking about the prosperity of the city under his feet, I can't help but sigh.

"Yes! From ancient times to the present, this military disaster has not been broken. In the final analysis, it was the nobles and scholars at the top who prevented the ascent at the bottom. Officials protect each other, and they prefer to promote the sons and nephews of their colleagues. For people who are not in their circle, they constantly fight and ostracize.

If there weren't too much injustice, the old man wouldn't have had to take refuge in the barbarians and take on the name of this traitor. Ay......! Although I, Fan Wencheng, have now become a Ming official, I can't get rid of this thief name for the rest of my life. "When it comes to fame, Fan Wencheng is a little lonely.

"It's serious! It's serious! Come on, come on, let's go in and drink. On this day, it was warm and cold, so drink two sips of wine to drive away the cold. Hong Chengchou smiled and made a gesture of please.

Sad and nostalgic for the present, Fan Wencheng was a little embarrassed.

The dishes on the table are not very rich, which is not Hong Chengchou's petty family. Guanzhong doesn't know what's going on in the past few years, after the drought is a military disaster, and the military disaster is not over and there is a plague. First, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong made a fuss. Then the Tartar soldiers came again, and there seemed to be no difference between a dead person and a dead chicken in recent years. The dishes are mostly game, especially the two roasted hares, which look like the product of hunting.

The land of Guanzhong, which has inherited thousands of years of Chinese civilization, is now not an exaggeration to describe it as ten rooms and nine emptiness.

"When it comes to the reputation of a traitor, I Lao Hong also bears it. You may not believe it, but the old man surrendered back then. Hong Chengchou poured a cup for Fan Wencheng, and responded to Fan Wencheng as a respect.

"What's that? You surrender to the Tartars, and there is still a will? Fan Wencheng felt that he had misheard.

"Of course, or do you think that my Lao Hong is not a bloody man? At that time, the Tartars united with Zhang Xianzhong, and the army was quite large. I can't help it, if I defend it, I will definitely be killed by the Tartars. Just as I Lao Hong was about to be martyred, I didn't expect the imperial court to suddenly come to the will.

His Majesty treats me Lao Hong well, for fear that our western army will be killed by the Tartars. We do not hesitate to order us to pretend to surrender and return to the Ming Dynasty when we find an opportunity. Pity! Long live went to Jiangnan, and was victimized by Qian Qianyi's Xiaoxiao. Now, I Lao Hong is dumb and can't say how hard it is to eat Coptis chinensis! ”

Fan Wencheng hurriedly poured a glass for the sad Hong Chengchou, this was the first time he had heard of this.

"The person who gave the decree found out and proved his innocence for the ......!"

"Don't mention it! It was Wang Tiqian, who was the celebrant of the ceremonial supervisor, who had sent people to Jiangnan to find him earlier. But the people who came back said that the prince ate beans in the prison of Xiaolingwei, and accidentally ate too much and died of swelling. At the beginning, it was an oracle, and there was no human and material evidence, you said that I Lao Hong was wronged or not! ”

"It's hard for the old brother! To be honest, if it weren't for the Donglin Party deliberately blocking my Fan's promotion path. I'm not going to run to serve the Tartars, just for a breath. I used to feel that I was wronged, but compared with you, my brother, it was really a heaven and an earth. ”

"It's good now, and I've returned to the court. But look at it, the army of the imperial court has become like this again. When the Nanjing Forbidden Army entered the pass, we all saw it. That's a strong soldier, although the guy in his hand is similar to ours. But the training is much better than ours!

When Dorgon saw it, he fled in despair. But you can see that Xuzhou has only been a few days, and it was actually forced to land by the Liao army. Even the Shi Shangshu of Jinling has also fallen! Zhou Yanru, who recruited us, was dismissed again. Now this court is the old head of the Wen Pavilion, and now people have no time to take care of us. But we're really free, what can we do?

I came to you today, Brother Fan, just to discuss it with you. The matter of our two brothers. The old and the young combined, but there are more than 30,000 people. There has to be a way out! Taking advantage of Fan Wencheng's loneliness, Hong Chengchou told the reason for today's treat.

"Brother Hong, what do you mean ......?" Fan Wencheng's heart immediately became alert.

"Now the imperial court is obviously at a disadvantage, and the Liao army in the north is also assisted by the Miao descendants of Emperor Taizu Gao. When it comes to blood, it seems that it is still a little closer than today. Brother, you say, let's vote for the Liao army now, okay? ”

"No way!" Fan Wencheng categorically objected.

He Hong Chengchou can join the Liao army, but Fan Wencheng will never be able to.

As early as when he was in Liaodong, Fan Wencheng had a blood feud with the Liao army. Now that the situation is not good, you will surrender if you say surrender? Fan Wencheng clearly knew that one day he was cut off by someone on the street of Jingshi. Among the people who spit on their corpses, Li Xiao must be among the top few.

"Brother Fan! It doesn't have to be this way, and it is also for the sake of the future of tens of thousands of brothers. Think again? Hong Chengchou's words were very earnest, and his two eagle-like eyes stared at Fan Wencheng without blinking.

"No! Absolutely not! Fan Wencheng didn't even think about refusing.

"I didn't expect Brother Fan to be so resolute, hey! No way. Hong Chengchou sighed and looked at Fan Wencheng with a very sorry look.

"What do you want?" Fan Wencheng stood up and immediately reached for the revolver on his waist.

"Brother Fan! This is also for the sake of tens of thousands of brothers, Guanzhong has been the center of China since ancient times. No emperor will give up on Guanzhong! The Liao army is like Guanzhong, and that is a matter of time.

With the strength of the Jiangnan Forbidden Army, it is not the opponent of the Liao Army. Our defeated soldiers are not the opponents of the Liao army. Instead of the Liao army fighting and defecting, it is better to take the initiative to surrender now. It can be regarded as finding a way out for the brethren! So...... I'm sorry. ”

The cup in Hong Chengchou's hand fell freely to the ground, the shattered wine glass shattered, and the wine spilled on the ground.

As the wine glasses collided with the floor tiles, a group of soldiers with knives and guns in their hands poured in. The knives and guns in his hands all pointed at Fan Wencheng!

Fan Wencheng's movements were far faster than theirs, and the revolver was drawn out like lightning and pointed at Hong Chengchou. "If you want to die together, I will also pull a cushion when I die. Don't push me! ”

"Brother Fan, I said it just now. This is for the sake of the future of tens of thousands of brothers, and here are the Hong soldiers under my command. Naturally, there is also the Han Army Banner under your command! It's not easy for everyone, after so many years of fighting, they are all looking forward to a few days of peaceful life. Put down the gun! As soon as Hong Chengchou's hand clenched into his fist loosened, several bullets fell on the table.

Watching the bullets dancing on the table, Fan Wencheng was stunned. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that his guards were standing like wooden men, and none of them drew their guns. Finished! Lao Tzu was sold!

This was Fan Wencheng's first thought!

The trigger was pulled twice in succession, all of which were the sound of the bolt hitting the metal. At this moment, Fan Wencheng's heart was even colder. Hong Chengchou's wrist was really good enough, and he actually rebelled against his subordinates without knowing it. Without even moving his own guards, Fan Wencheng knew that surrender was everyone's wish.

"Hey......!" Fan Wencheng let out a long sigh, and the revolver in his hand fell to the ground.

"It's all out of the question, forgive me! Take! Hong Chengchou hugged Fan Wencheng and ordered the soldiers to escort Hong Chengchou away.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Li Xiao never expected that Hong Chengchou would take the initiative to hand it over and lower the table. He also stared at Sun Chuanting stupidly when he came back from the south, so that he could take Zu Dashou to take Guanzhong.

Now, Hong Chengchou is determined not to cause trouble to Li Xiao. sent his henchman Zuo Liangyu to the capital with the table. Expressed allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor Longwu, as long as the emperor did not find a posthumous account. He was willing to return to the field, and from then on he farmed at home and did not care about the world.

The attitude is good, the will is resolute. Everyone didn't have anything to say, including Sun Chengzong, the old fox.

"It's good to be able to take the initiative to abandon the darkness and turn to the light. Brother Xiao! Although Lao Hong made mistakes, this is also excusable. You don't have to slap a face! Sun Chengzong put down Hong Chengchou's surrender and took the initiative to comfort Li Xiao.

"It's not that the kid doesn't forgive him, but ...... It always feels weird. In Li Xiao's impression, Hong Chengchou has always been a second or fifth boy. Now he suddenly showed great loyalty to the Longwu Dynasty, which made Li Xiao very suspicious of this loyalty.

"What's so strange about this, it just so happens that the court hasn't come back. Let Hong Chengchou act as the agent of Guan Zhongzhi first, and kill Li Zicheng first. When Sun Chuanting came back, let them go to Shuzhong to kill Zhang Xianzhong, who had fled. To win Longwangshu, this is a necessary step to win the world. ”

The old fox is the old fox, and he came up with a more ruthless trick. That is to let Hong Chengchou fight Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong.

These two goods, one is making a fuss in Shaanxi. One was beaten by Zu Dashou and went to Sichuan with a head full of bags. Looking at the great future, many places have been reduced to ruins by the war. Only the land of Bashu has not been affected by the war. And the people there are relatively wealthy, so it's a good place for robbery no matter how you look at it.

"Then let them go and kill Li Zicheng first!" Li Zicheng is now a horse bandit, wandering around his hometown of Mizhi. Occasionally I was forced to be tight, and I knew how to run to Gansu.

However, the place in Gansu was too poor to support Li Zicheng's soldiers, so he took refuge from the limelight there. Li Zicheng still has to go back to Guanzhong, although Guanzhong is having a hard time now, but it is much better than Gansu.

Let Hong Chengchou kill these two famous historical figures, Li Xiao raised his hands in favor.

"Now! We're finally united in the north. Recently, many places in Jiangbei have taken the initiative to come and annex. If our three or two cavalrymen go to run around, they will bring a county town to surrender the book.

Nanming's territory in Jiangbei, except for one Yangzhou, is only Taizhou. Take these two places, and we can drink the Yangtze River. Sun Chengzong looked at the map and was very satisfied, the efficiency of the recovery of various important towns in the north was very amazing, and it had reached the point where the map was updated every day.

"Then let Cao Wenzhao's third division attack Yangzhou, be careful. Don't look at these Yangzhou people, they speak softly on weekdays. It's really hard, and it's enough for us to drink a pot. Tell Cao Wenzhao that you must be careful of casualties. And after entering the city, it is forbidden to kill civilians on a large scale. ”

Li Xiao also has the story of Shi Kefa guarding Yangzhou in history, and a few incendiary slogans stimulated Yangzhou people to defend the city one after another. In the end, the Tartars had no choice but to get artillery. Bombarding the city wall, this can be regarded as breaking the city wall of Yangzhou.

But next, there is the famous Yangzhou Ten Days. The knife was not sealed for 10 days, and it is said that the number of victims reached more than 800,000. Li Xiao didn't want his army to commit such war crimes.

"They are all descendants of the Han family, and the minimum military discipline must be observed." Sun Chengzong agreed with Li Xiao's opinion.

He ordered someone to write a will, and Li Xiao and Sun Chengzong sent it to the front line after using their own seals. His Majesty the Emperor is still young, and he needs to seize the time to study, and no matter how tired he is, he can't tire the children.

So Li Xiao and Sun Chengzong overstepped all the holy decrees, and they didn't even have the leisure to give Zhu Yihai a share. Half-grown children have nothing to do to watch any musicals, and they play every day in the harem. Isn't it good to visit the lake?

Cao Wenzhao received the holy decree, and the back of his head blossomed.

The first division and the second division are all over the world, and they accept surrender every day. Although the Liao army doesn't accept gifts now, it's still okay to mix up wine. After all, everyone wants to stammer, the two masters of the Liao Army who have made great achievements.

"His grandmother's, it's finally our turn. Say yes to the bunnies, no matter what your background is. When you get to the battlefield, you can strain Lao Tzu, don't blame Lao Tzu for the gun in his hand is not polite. After the drumming of the generals, Cao Wenzhao slapped the handsome case viciously.

"No!" The officers below agreed in unison, especially the few small battalion commanders who had just been promoted.

Everyone glanced at Li Hu intentionally or unintentionally, and everyone knew. This is talking about the gentlemen led by Li Hu! Originally, I thought that these were all gentlemen, and their infiltration into the army was simply the greatest disrespect for the lives of soldiers.

Unexpectedly, when he attacked the periphery of Xuzhou, he used these few swords.

These gentlemen fought very well, and Li Hu's troops surrounded and sent reinforcements. With the strength of one battalion, he forcibly ate two companies of the Nanjing Forbidden Army, plus a platoon.

The clear goal is Yangzhou! A group of killers from the Third Division set off immediately with a howl of "whoa" and "whoa". These days in Xuzhou, the backpack is always on. The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is to pack my backpack.

Going south from Yangzhou, there was a little resistance when passing through Suqian. The rest of the time is an armed march passing through the village. The people are all looking through the cracks in the doors, and some of the property guys are still worried about the safety of their property.
