The news of Li Yan's illness soon spread all over the camp, after all, he was the hottest person at the moment, and he was actually infected with the wind cold and was bedridden, which was also a major event in the camp.

Li Zicheng was also quite worried when he heard that Li Yan was sick, so he sent several waves of doctors to diagnose and treat him, and also sent good medicinal materials.

Of course, only Niu Venus Cave watched the fire in the whole camp, and only he knew what was going on with Li Yan's illness.

"Father, you joined the army first, and now you have offended this Li Yan, and the child is worried that it will be unfavorable to you in the future," Niu Xuan said to Niu Jinxing quite worriedly.

He really didn't expect that after his father became the left staff, he directly declared war on Li Yan non-stop, and there was not even a buffer in the middle, which was not a good thing in his opinion.

Niu Jinxing is concentrating on practicing calligraphy, after being promoted by Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng gave him a piece of stationery that He Jiao treasured, in order to declare trust and grace, Niu Jinxing also felt happy with the enemy's things, and took it out to practice calligraphy and painting in his spare time, and cultivated his sentiments.

"You only know one thing, you don't know the other" Niu Jinxing heard this, paused for a moment, and slowly explained: "Why do you think your father is hostile to Li Yan?" Just for a little bit of a grudge before? Then you couldn't be more wrong! ”

Niu Xuan was stunned for a while when he heard this, he thought that Niu Jinxing was in a hurry to attack Li Yan only because of Li Yan's previous actions, but he didn't want his father to do this at all.

Niu Jinxing glanced at his elm-like son, sighed heavily, put down the problem in his hand, and then sat on the Taishi chair, crossed Erlang's legs and said slowly: "Who is Li Yan?" That's Gu Yan's right-hand man! If Li Yan and Gu Yan unite, you and my father and son will never have a chance to emerge in the camp! Now, Gu Yan uses me to balance Li Yan, Li Yan will inevitably have a dislike with him, and when the time comes, it will be divided and disintegrated, and each will be broken, isn't it beautiful? ”

Hearing this, Niu Bolt nodded as if he didn't understand.

Niu Jinxing looked at his son helplessly, sighed again, and then continued: "It's not a short time to break into the camp, can't you see some clues?" Li Yan does not get along well with the military leaders of the front battalion, if I am friendly with him, I am only afraid that the martial artists of the front camp will be a party with him, and I will be clearly separated in the future, and there will be no help, now I have hated Li Yan first, and I will accept a vote, and there will definitely be people in the front camp who are secretly happy, and when the time comes, they can only achieve something by pulling them over against Gu and Li! ”

Niu Jinxing never intended to be subordinated to others, from the moment he entered the camp, he was determined to be the one under one person and above ten thousand people, and he wanted to be a character like Zhuge Liang, not Fang Xuanling!

Niu Xuan looked at his scheming father and was secretly frightened, at first he only said that his father was just a very bookish old man, but now it seems that he has greatly underestimated him.

Niu Jinxing is also very helpless, his son is okay to study, but he is not familiar with the way of power and scheming, and he is still benevolent, righteous, courteous and wise all day long, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve great things in the future......

......

Reserve Army Barracks.

Li Yan's military tent is an independent military tent, although the officers and soldiers were required to be one, but after all, the military affairs involved in Li Yan are all confidential, and after weighing it, he still made a special one and gave him a small tent, and now he is sick and it is just right to isolate and diagnose and treat.

Since he fell ill on the day of the fight, except for cronies like Wang Jinbao, no one else can get close to here, and the doctor sent by Li Zicheng is only taking the pulse of Li Yan through the curtain, according to Li Yan's own words, he is a plague, and he needs to be isolated, otherwise he is afraid that it will harm others.

However, in fact, Wang Jinbao knows best in his heart that Li Yan is not sick at all, but he sleeps like a patient during the day, and at night he quietly picks up the candle and deals with the specific affairs of the reserve army.

Capture Baofeng, the reserve army is the first achievement, this time what Li Zicheng can not but reward, although there are resentful people in the army, but it is not good to speak out again, under this tone, Li Zicheng waved his hand to reward half of Baofeng's military assets and property to the reserve army.

This is a lot of wealth, there are more than 300 pairs of brand-new armor alone, and many of them are copied from the basement of He Jiao's mansion, which shows that this person has also done some shady business in private.

In addition to the armor, there are 100 pairs of bows and crossbows, more than 1,000 feather arrows, and all kinds of sabers, spears, and rattan cards are innumerable, but it is a pity that the 10,000 enemies were used up by Guo Junzhen at the beginning, otherwise it would be of great use if you get some.

After the two battles of Lushan and Baofeng, the casualties of the reserve army were quite heavy, from the original 1,200 to 600, it is ashamed to say that at least two-thirds of them were non-combat attrition, and the two battles were fought too frequently, resulting in the reserve army having no time to contain new troops.

This time captured Baofeng, the armies saw that they could not gnaw on the ordnance, so they turned their eyes to the soldiers, so Baofeng's strong man suffered another catastrophe, if he met Tian Jianxiu so reasonable, he would also take out his property to tempt the young man, and replaced Liu Zongmin and Yidougu These people directly incorporated their families into the back camp, not afraid that you will not follow!

By the time the reserve army came to their senses, the soldiers were all divided, and the soldiers who surrendered were also divided, Li Yan and others were obviously difficult to replenish in Baofeng, and the surrounding villages had already been empty of wars and famines for many years, and the replenishment had become unrealistic.

In this context, Li Yan's problem has become tricky, and how to replenish the source of troops has become the number one problem in the reserve army.

Li Yan's method is a single, on the one hand, he sent people to each family to make a fortune, took out excess ordnance and food treasures in exchange for some soldiers, and on the other hand, he went to pick up Li Jin's wool, but unfortunately the soldiers of each family were not rich, and they came back with 50 people, Li Jin said that it was easy to pull more than 100 people back.

Even counting these 150 people, Li Yan's strength gap is still very large, in desperation, he paid attention to Guo Junzhen, after Guo Junzhen surrendered, the troops were not dismantled, Li Zicheng intended to recruit, so he allowed him to retain the command, not only that, but also good food and drink, I hope he will change his mind.

Of course, Guo Junzhen doesn't know what to do, he doesn't eat oil and salt, he neither commits suicide nor surrenders, and he takes his soldiers to confront passively all day long, obviously wanting to play a game for Li Zicheng.

The back and forth also made Li Zicheng impatient, and gradually came up with the idea of simply cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.

Li Yan was not very willing to accept Guo Junzhen's mess at first, after all, he was considered to have formed a relationship with Guo Junzhen, and he was afraid that he would bury mines in the reserve army if he recruited him.

However, when he sent Wang Jinbao to visit the battalions and search for brave and strong men, Wang Jinbao rewarded Guo Junzhen's surrendered troops.

According to Wang Jinbao's description, although Guo Junzhen's troops were concentrated outside the city, and there were still troops around them, they practiced all day long, and they were not abandoned for a day, as if the surrounding troops were air.

The most commendable thing is that Guo Junzhen has soldiers who eat and sleep together, and when he encounters those soldiers who are abandoned and driven away because of serious injuries, Guo Junzhen will also take them in and take out a few medicinal materials for treatment.

In addition, because Guo Junzhen was placed outside the city, Li Zicheng did not allow the Ming army to surrender into the city, so all kinds of supplies were quite in demand, and many traders came to sell at the right time.

You must know that even if the military discipline is as good as the army, the robbery is still repeatedly prohibited after entering the city, although the army does not kill and rape much, but when he sees the yellow and white things, he still can't hold it, Li Zicheng also knows the truth that he is too late, and he also turns a blind eye to the robbery.

However, Guo Junzhen, as a defeated army and a demoralized Ming army, can still stick to military discipline and not rob or seize, just from this point we know that the combat effectiveness of this army must not be weak.

Out of this consideration, Li Yan still decided to take the risk of absorbing Guo Junzhen's troops, after all, he is a strong soldier, and it is not indispensable to include him under his command.

Li Zicheng didn't talk nonsense, he already didn't have much patience to surrender, and now Li Yan promised to surrender Guo Junzhen, and Li Zicheng also took the opportunity to let Li Yan do it.

Li Yan's method was still simple and rude, and he didn't even see Guo Junzhen's face (he was sick), so he directly asked Wang Jinbao to write a letter, the content was very simple, notifying Guo Junzhen to report to the reserve army, and at the same time announcing the appointment of Guo Junzhen as the post chief of the reserve army, Liu Wenbing as the deputy post commander, and all the corporal under his command were incorporated into the reserve army.

Guo Junzhen laughed angrily when he saw this order, Li Yan would really be sentimental, and immediately told Wang Jinbao that he could get out of here, and it was impossible for him Guo Junzhen to surrender to Li Yan, the sinister villain, in his life.

Wang Jinbao didn't get out, but just told Guo Junzhen lightly that if Guo Junzhen didn't report on Li Yan's future, then all the soldiers under his command would be buried alive......

Hearing this, Guo Junzhen couldn't hold back, and immediately jumped like thunder, but he was helpless, after all, people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, so I can only grit my teeth and go to prepare for the army report.

Of course, it's still not yin or yang, he's a great Guo to be a Xu Shu......

Li Yan laughed when he heard this in the military tent, it was obvious that Guo Junzhen didn't see the Ming Court clearly, he wanted to be Xu Shu, is the Ming Court Liu Bei? Laughing to death, a little guy really thinks of himself as Zuo Liangyu?
