Chapter Thirty-Six: The Secret Discussion

Lin Fengting stabbed several soldiers one after another, and rushed to the stage with Xia Qianxun. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Seeing that the situation was critical, Li Yan said loudly: "Don't fight with the enemy, quickly help the king to return to his mansion." Tian Jianxiu and Zhang Nai, protecting Li Zicheng and retreating to the stage, Li Yan, Red Lady, and Liu Zongmin led their own soldiers to desperately stop Lin Fengting and Xia Qianxun who came up.

Seeing that Li Zicheng and the civil officials had stepped down, Tiegongshan was in a hurry, and rushed to attack Duan Hongyu's face door with a sword of "rushing to the sky and hugging the moon".

Duan Hongyu saw that this sword was sharp, and hurriedly stepped forward to block it with "Tongyun".

Iron Bow Mountain changed his move halfway, and the Blood Condensation Cold Light Sword was just a light touch on Duan Hongyu's sword, and he immediately rose into the air, his body was tendoned in the air, and his feet were a little on the head of a soldier, and in an instant, he had already jumped behind Li Zicheng, and shouted: "Thief, take your life." A sword, "Poisonous Snake Exploration" directly took the back of Li Zicheng's neck.

Tian Jianxiu and Zhang Nai's swords came out together, and they came to the sword.

Tie Gongshan had expected this section, and saw that the blood condensing cold light sword twisted its body in the air like a spiritual snake, and it had instantly left the two swords behind him, the long sword was like a rainbow, and it had instantly hit the back of Li Zicheng's neck, at this moment he had practiced in his dream I don't know how many times, and now he finally made a move.

Li Zicheng knew that the catastrophe was coming, so he sighed and could only close his eyes and wait for death.

At this time, Duan Hongyu's figure had already chased behind Tiegong Mountain, and he shouted: "Lord Tie, let go of King Chuang." "A heavy sword, slamming into the back of the Iron Bow Mountain.

Tiegongshan was not moved at all, and he could exchange his life for Li Zicheng's life, which was unbelievable to him.

Duan Hongyu was also anxious, and now, even if he wanted him to accept this sword for King Chuang, he would not hesitate, but he was half a moment slower than Iron Bow Mountain.

Listening to the sound of "Zheng", the Blood Condensation Cold Light Sword was actually held up by a sharp weapon like a flying dragon outside the sky at the last moment.

Under the violent shock of this sharp weapon, Iron Bow Mountain's body slammed to one side.

Duan Hongyu's sword had arrived like lightning, and when he saw that King Chuang was safe and sound, his sword momentum was also recovered.

Tie Gongshan screamed and fell from the sky, he was really amazing in martial arts, only slightly on one side, he immediately adjusted his body and landed firmly on the ground.

Duan Hongyu was shocked into a cold sweat, and when he looked up, he saw that Tang Ma, the starling Yuanjiang tiger shark, was standing in front of him, and it was his water-splitting Emei thorn that blocked the throat sealing sword of Iron Bow Mountain. With the two soft sounds of "flutter", Wen Tianshi and Hu Tianyi also jumped forward.

Duan Hongyu said in surprise: "Second brother, why did you come in such a timely manner?"

Wen Tianshi said: "Tenth brother, don't talk about it first, think about how to deal with these eagle talons first." ”

Li Zicheng had already gotten on his horse and walked away at this time, and Tiegong Mountain saw that the general trend had gone, and he suddenly lost his spirits.

Xia Qianxun said loudly: "Lord Tie, let's withdraw first, and it's not too late to take the head of the thief in the future." ”

Tie Bow Mountain sighed and said, "If you can't kill the thief, what face do I have to go to see the saint?"

Xia Qianxun danced a pair of Yin Soul Sword to open the way in front of him, and Lin Fengting and Tie Bingxin hugged the Iron Bow Mountain and killed outward. These people are so strong in martial arts, and now they have given up their lives and the intruding army has been defeated and retreated.

Originally, with the strength of the heroes, they could subdue these people, but they were full of their own people, and as soon as they mixed into the army in Tiegong Mountain, they could not find them at all, and they were finally taken advantage of by the enemy to escape.

Tiger Tianyi has no one to cut, so angry that he shouted, and he flew forward and pulled out the handsome flag of the army, he was really born with divine power, thinking how deep the handsome flag was deep into the soil, to pull it out, it would not be possible to do it without ten thousand catties of divine power.

Liu Zongmin roared: "Where did the Hun man come from, he dared to move the handsome flag of our army, don't you want to die?" jumped up and hugged the handsome flag and competed with the tiger Tianyi. The two of them came and went, and no one could let go of anyone.

Wen Tianshi said: "Hu Tianyi, quickly put down the handsome flag, don't mess around." He divided his hands, and Hu Tianyi and Liu Zongmin involuntarily retreated backwards.

Wen Tianshi held the handsome flag in his arms, came to the flag stand in a few big steps, and thrust down violently, only to hear the sound of "pounce", and the flagpole followed the original hole, not getting into it at all, but it was nearly a foot deeper than the original. When all the sergeants saw that Wen Tianshi had such skills, they all clapped their hands and shouted happily.

Liu Zongmin and Hu Tianyi were still staring at each other at this time, and no one was convinced.

Wen Tianshi came to the front and hugged his fist and said: "General Liu, Wen Tianshi is the star of the dawn night in the Lower Ten Thousand Blade Mountain." His name is Hu Tianyi, and he is a muddy person, don't worry about him. ”

As soon as Liu Zongmin heard that this person was the world-famous Wen Tianshi, he hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Long admiration!

Only then did everyone know that it was a misunderstanding, and they couldn't help but burst into laughter.

That night, Li Zicheng set up a banquet in the camp and warmly entertained Wen Tianshi and other heroes. Originally, Niu Jinxing had prepared a mansion for King Chuang in the city, but King Chuang couldn't give up all the soldiers and still lived in the barracks. These heroes of the green forest are unruly people, sitting around a large table, eating and drinking, and talking freely. What they said was a major event in the world, and the spearhead was directed at the Ming Dynasty court, if the timid and afraid people listened to what they said, they were afraid that they would be scared to death.

Li Zicheng had a toast with Wen Tianshi, put down the wine glass and said, "Brother Wen, why did you come this time?"

Wen Tianshi said: "Brother Li, I have made a special trip to contact you this time on the order of my brother. Now the situation in the whole country is very good, the Ming Dynasty has run out, Brother Li should raise troops to the north as soon as possible, and at that time, we will start from Shandong Jilvlin Haojie, and the big tomorrow will be at your fingertips. ”

Li Zicheng pondered for a moment and said: "Brother Wen, I have long had this intention to raise troops to the north, but the Ming Dynasty still has extremely strong strength, Zuo Liangyu, Sun Chuanting, and Wu Sangui are all holding heavy troops, and now they are going north, and the time is not yet ripe." In addition, this is not something I can personally decide, Cao Cao, Gezuo Fifth Battalion, and Xiao Yuan Battalion may not listen to me. ”

Wen Tianshi knew that Li Zicheng was talking about Luo Rucai, He Yilong, Yuan Shizhong and other leaders of the rebel army, and he also knew the difficulties of King Chuang, and said: "I also know this, but now the Manchu Qing Dynasty is eyeing the Central Plains, and its ambition is already known to passers-by. ”

Song Xiance said: "Your worries are justified, but it is indeed too hasty to directly attack the Jingshi now. My eldest brother and I have already discussed, or the advanced army of Shaanxi and capture Xi'an. It is a thousand-year-old capital, and there is an image of an emperor, and if you have it as a base, it is promising. ”

Duan Hongyu said: "Song military, marching into Xi'an is definitely not the best policy. Just now, King Chuang and Song Junshi said that it was too early to attack Beijing, and I agree with that. Although this method of warfare can concentrate troops and fight flexibly, but due to the lack of strong rear support, once it fails, it will be defeated for thousands of miles, and the Tang Dynasty's 'Storming General' Huang Chao is like this. The land of Shanshan is now barren and withered, and has long lost the spirit of the former king, and this place is surrounded by various provinces. If there is a slight mistake in attacking the Beijing division from this place, it will immediately be in the middle of the attack between the Manchu Qing and the Ming Dynasty, and fight on two fronts, but it is a taboo for soldiers. ”

Li Yan said: "Brother Duan is reasonable, and I don't agree to march into Xi'an. ”

Liu Zongmin said: "Brother Duan, the world is full of Ming soldiers, if we don't go to Xi'an, where will we get a foothold!"

Duan Hongyu said: "Go to Jiangnan." ”

Li Zicheng was shocked: "Jiangnan?"

Duan Hongyu said: "Yes, then Chongzhen in Beijing is just a tablet, we want to occupy his land and subjects, not Chongzhen, an emperor with an empty name." It's like digging a tree, you have to dig it up from all sides of the tree, and if you dig out its roots, the tree will fall down on its own, and if you just cut it off from it, it won't be long before new branches will grow everywhere. The rebels should now look for an opportunity to move south and capture Jiangnan. That Nanjing Jinling is the ancient capital of the six dynasties, east of Zhongshan, west of the Yangtze River, the water network is staggered, the mountains are dense, it can really be described as a tiger standing on the dragon. If you take this place as a foundation, first sweep the south of the Yangtze River, and then wave your army to the north, you will definitely be able to sweep the Central Plains, close to Youyan, and look at the outside of the pass. If we lose, we can rely on the river to resist danger and never fall into a situation of fighting on two fronts, and this has already won a favorable situation from a major strategic point of view. It was with this strategy that Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, defeated the Yuan Dynasty in one fell swoop. With the crisis of the Southern Song Dynasty back then, based on this, Shang and the Jin Dynasty and Mongolia have persisted for a hundred years, not to mention my righteous army?"

Duan Hongyu's words caused an uproar among the generals of the breaking army, they were all northerners, and they had never had such an idea, but listening to Duan Hongyu's reasonableness, they were all impressed.

Li Zicheng is a native of Shaanxi, from the bottom of his heart, he wants to go back to Shaanxi, and he does not want to go south, but Duan Hongyu does make sense, if he gets Jiangnan, he does have a stable rear, where he is not only rich, but also has the Yangtze River, and the most important thing is to fundamentally avoid the taboo of soldiers fighting on two fronts, which not only has the foundation of the country, but also avoids the edge of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which is really the best policy. But this is easy to say, but it is also difficult to implement. If you want to go south, you must first have a strong naval army, which the current army does not have. Li Zicheng pondered for a long time and said, "Let's discuss this matter later!"

The heroes discussed for a while, and then went back to the camp.
