Chapter 1002
In Yushanzhai Chuang Wang Li Zicheng's big tent, the tense atmosphere has disappeared, Chuangying, Xiying, and Caoying have once again returned to the environment of harmonious coexistence in the past.

Chuangwang Li Zicheng also had a cheerful smile on his face, and he then said to the generals in the camp: "Don't just remember that in the winter of Chongzhen 11th, I went to Gucheng to see Jingxuan, and his cronies planned to assassinate me. one thing.

You should not forget that at the time of life and death, the lives of Shuang Xier and I depended on Jingxuan's wink and on the big beard that Jingxuan held in his hand.

If he intends to harm me, all he needs to do is wink, or lightly nod his head, or swipe down the big beard he is holding tightly in his hands, and he will kill everyone immediately, and Shuang Xier and I will die sooner or later. We ended up in Gucheng.

Maybe, we have to pay an extra old fairy! "

As soon as Li Zicheng finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter in the big tent, and everyone looked at Zhang Xianzhong's beard almost at the same time.

Liu Zongmin joked even more loudly: "Jingxuan, it's a good thing you didn't swipe down your beard at that time, if you did swipe it, we still have people to fight the banner passed down by King Gao Chuang, how can you You really forged a mortal enmity with us for breaking into the camp!"

Following Liu Zongmin's words, Li Zicheng continued: "All of you should remember one more thing, Jingxuan listened to my persuasion that time, and sure enough, he started the incident again at the Dragon Boat Festival of the second year.

Don't forget how difficult we were at that time, but Jingxuan sent us a hundred cavalry, as well as a lot of silver and weapons.

As for my friends, we should always keep in mind the benefits that others have given us, and less about their shortcomings. Now that we have decided to send Jingxuan away, we will never leave Junshi Xu and Maotang alone.

The general and I can trust Jingxuan, why do we need to keep hostages? "

The more Li Zicheng spoke, the more serious his tone became, and at the end he shouted sharply: "What a foolish idea! Xu Junshi and Maotang are Jing Xuan's right and left hands, and Jing Xuan will leave them one day.

What's more, Jingxuan's going to Jianghuai to contain the officers and soldiers is going to be a war, without the advice of the army division Xu, General Maotang's charge would not be greatly reduced, but the instructors and soldiers took advantage of it.

For the two of them, we should not miss the old grievances, and send each other with courtesy! "

Xu Yixian hurriedly got up and gave a deep bow to King Chuang, and said: "I will never dare to be more serious about the Generalissimo in the rest of my life. I will definitely be loyal and diligent, in order to repay the great kindness of the Generalissimo, and do my best for the Generalissimo!"

Li Zicheng then ordered all unrelated people to withdraw so that he could have in-depth talks with Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong and others.

…………

After the generals retreated, Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance, Xu Yixian, Ji Gui and others still stayed in the big tent, while Li Shuangxi and Zhang Dingguo also retreated and stayed outside.

Chuang Wang Li Zicheng asked Zhang Xianzhong with a smile: "Jingxuan, why don't you rest here for two or three days, and then go to Huguang to make a fuss?"

Zhang Xianzhong felt ecstasy, whether he could borrow troops from Li Zicheng now was not important, but he could only get away from him, why not make a comeback.

He hastily answered and said: "I would like to ask the Generalissimo to do so. I will follow your general order. It would be better if Brother Li could help me with some troops. They have no time to look north, and they will make the soldiers of Huang Degong and Liu Liangzuo enter Zhongzhou if they can't get it, and they will definitely tie them to Jiangbei."

Li Zicheng asked, "How many people do you want me to help you with?"

Zhang Xianzhong resolutely said: "I don't dare to ask for more, just ask the Generalissimo to lend me five hundred elite cavalry. Most of my troops are scattered in the mountains around Xinyang, and I have secretly sent people to recruit them before. Gathered together, they can still resist the government army."

Li Zicheng nodded and said to him: "Okay. You can rest in Yuzhai for two or three days first. Before leaving, I will give you 2 cavalry. There are also two troops, Yishiwang and Gundilong. They are about [-] people, you probably know them too.

They were originally the big sticks in western Henan. After I came to Henan and broke Luoyang, they voted for me and asked me to take them under their command. I didn't recruit them.

They are now stationed in the east of Queshan to contain the officers and troops on the side of Runing. I don't need them in the war for the time being. You have few troops at present, so take them with you first. "

After Zhang Xianzhong heard the words, he said very gratefully: "Brother Li, you have treated me so well, I will never forget it! But without your order, would King I and Gundilong come with me?"

Li Zicheng said nonchalantly: "If you take my order and arrow, they will not dare to disobey. In addition, you can also ask the general to send someone to go with you. I am busy with military affairs and have a lot of miscellaneous things. I died last month." Hand them over to Lao Cao."

Luo Rucai also said at this time: "Follow the Commander-in-Chief's order, I will send an order to King I and Gundilong. Jingxuan, they both voted for King Chuang. You led them to Huguang under the banner of King Chuang. , this must be remembered clearly.

In the future, when King Chuang needs them to come back, you have to let them go at any time. "

Zhang Xianzhong smiled and said to him, "Brother Cao, you don't need to worry too much about it. If Brother Li needs men and horses, just give an order, and even I will rush back overnight, and dare to say that I won't let them come back!"

Xu Yixian took the opportunity to intervene and said: "General Jingxuan went to northern Anhui and Huguang to serve the king and clear the Central Plains, which is different from the past when we fought separately.

If General Jingxuan goes to the Ying and Huo areas and meets Laohui, Ge, Zuo and others, he will definitely persuade them to raise the banner of Chuangwang together and respect Chuangwang as the main one. "

Li Zicheng knew in his heart that there was a lot of water in his words, but he still smiled on the surface. He said: "I and Jingxuan are like brothers. I hope Mr. Xu will assist Jingxuan more in the future, that is, assist me."

When Xu Yixian heard the words, he leaned back and said: "The Commander-in-Chief Jun's order, I will always remember it in my heart!"

Luo Rucai also said: "King Chuang, when will you give him the five hundred horses you promised to lend to Jingxuan?"

Li Zicheng replied disapprovingly: "There is no rush tonight. Jingxuan doesn't have to go to Huguang right away, it won't be too late to leave after Jianchuang recovers.

When Jingxuan was about to leave, he allocated five hundred elite cavalry to take him with him, maybe by then we would have finished the battle of Runing. "

Luo Rucai also smiled and said: "The men and horses in my Cao camp are also the troops of the Generalissimo. Now that the soldiers of the West camp are all living in my camp, it would not be more important to temporarily allocate five hundred cavalry from my Cao camp to Jingxuan." For convenience?
Afterwards the generalissimo was free, so he could return the five hundred cavalry to me. Of course, it would be nothing if he didn’t return them. "

Li Zicheng couldn't refuse for a while, so he had to say: "That's fine. You give Jingxuan five hundred cavalry first, and I will instruct the old battalion chief to pay you back tomorrow."

Luo Rucai said, "Why tomorrow? It won't be too late to return me after the battle of Runing is over. I have one more thing I want to explain to the Generalissimo.

There used to be some estrangement between the soldiers of Xiying and the Old Eighth Brigade, this situation is very clear to all of us present, even though Jingxuan lives here with the Generalissimo and is treated with great courtesy, some of the soldiers of Xiying still have misgivings disturbed.

Therefore, I would like to ask Jingxuan to return to Xiying for a while, so as to appease the hearts of the soldiers of Xiying. Once the soldiers of Xiying learn how the Generalissimo does not forget the past and treats each other with sincerity, he will give five hundred fine horses as a gift. Jump up and down, be grateful, and swear to serve the Generalissimo to the death. "

Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Of course Jingxuan can go back now. I just received a spy report saying that Fu Zonglong has sent Ding Qirui and Zuo Liangyu to join forces in Runing. I don't know if it is true.

We will stay here temporarily until Ding Qirui and Zuo Liangyu go north. If Jingxuan is not in a hurry, he can rest here with peace of mind and leave after this battle is over.

If you want to go back to Huguang earlier, there is no need to be in a hurry. Please come to Yuzhai at noon tomorrow. I will prepare a little wine for Jingxuan's farewell party. You go back and discuss it. It will be decided tomorrow morning, and it will not be too late to sue me again! "

Zhang Xianzhong was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, and Li Zicheng, under the persuasion of the generals, suddenly changed his mind and refused to allow him to leave. He didn't say much, and immediately bid farewell to Chuang Wang Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng, together with Liu Zongmin, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and others, sent Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai out of the gate of the village, and watched them mount their horses and ride away.

…………

The development of the situation tonight was completely beyond Xu Yixian's expectation, which made him very excited, but it felt like a dream.

He was worried that things would not be carried out in the end, and when he walked out of the stronghold, he was very close to Song Xiance, the military advisor of King Chuang, and he wished to get some words out of his mouth.

Xu Yixian took Song Xiance's hand and said softly: "Mr. Song, General Jingxuan's going here should be like Han Xin's going to Sanqi, restraining the officers and soldiers from the side, so that they will not be taken care of by others, which will greatly benefit Chuang Wang and his colleagues. The imperial court competed for the Central Plains.

Dude, do you think so? "

Although Song Xiance's face was full of smiles, his expression gave people an elusive feeling. He said: "If General Jingxuan can be Han Xin, I hope my brother will not be Kuai Tong."

Xu Yixian was shocked when he heard the words, and hurriedly replied, "Mr. Song, you really know how to tell jokes. How dare I forget King Chuang's kindness today, and persuade Han Xin to become king like Kuai Tong!"

After seeing off Zhang Xianzhong and his party, Li Zicheng, Niu Jinxing, and Song Xiance returned to his military tent, and continued to conduct secret business affairs.

Chuang Wang Li Zicheng said with some regret: "I planned to hold a farewell banquet for Jingxuan and the others tomorrow, but judging from the situation tonight, they may not come again."

Niu Jinxing also said with a smile: "Because Cao Cao has been caught in the middle, he had to deal with it accordingly, so he started from the big picture. King Chuang wrote a big article, and he dared to do what others would not do. That's why Zhang Jingxuan It's beyond hope."

Li Zicheng also said: "Although Cao Cao has the same nostrils as Jingxuan, and makes plans for Jingxuan everywhere, but he said that he will leave Jingxuan to go to Wanxi and Huguang to drag the officers and troops. Judging from the current situation, it is true We need.

If Jingxuan leaves without saying goodbye, when you meet Cao Cao tomorrow, you can only praise him for his brilliant ideas, and you must not reveal anything else.

The reason why I decided to let Jingxuan go was to pull Cao Cao tighter, so I asked Hui, Ge and others to take a look! "

All the people in the tent nodded one after another, they had nothing else to say, and then secretly discussed other internal affairs of the camp.

…………

On the other side, as soon as Cao Cao Luo Ru returned to his camp, he ordered the old camp secretary to prepare dinner quickly.

Immediately, he whispered to Zhang Xianzhong: "Jingxuan, what are you going to do?"

Zhang Xianzhong played with the long yellow beard on his chin, observed Luo Rucai's expression, and asked casually, "Brother Cao, what's your opinion?"

Cao Cao said with a serious expression: "Jingxuan, this is not a place for you to stay for a long time. It is best to leave before dawn tonight. I have ordered the secretary to prepare dinner for you. We old brothers have a few glasses of wine, and you have to Fly far away."

Although Zhang Xianzhong was moved for a while, he pretended to ask: "Aren't you saying goodbye to Zicheng?"

Luo Rucai replied without thinking: "You don't have to say goodbye. I will see Zicheng tomorrow and just say that you want to go back to Huguang as soon as possible and hold back Ding Qirui, Zuo Liangyu and others so that they can't go to Runing to meet Fu Zonglong. You don't want to delay Time has passed."

He looked at Zhang Xianzhong and continued: "I'm worried now that Zicheng may regret it tonight. He shouldn't have let you leave his place, and he shouldn't have promised you to go to Huguang and Wanxi. Someone is here to invite you to go back to Yuzhai.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, you'd better leave early! "

Zhang Xianzhong didn't know the current situation, so he didn't say much, and said very simply: "Okay, I will leave when the sky is not clear. Brother Cao, please prepare the five hundred cavalry that you lent me earlier so that I can leave Time to bring it."

Luo Rucai smiled and said, "Just put your mind at ease, I will definitely give you good soldiers and good horses. In order not to delay your departure tonight, I told Zicheng that I will allocate [-] cavalry for you directly. Then he paid me back.

How can he be completely at ease with you under King Chuang's subordinates?
If you stay here for one more day, you will be in more danger. The only way to do it is to walk quickly! "

Zhang Xianzhong was really grateful to Luo Rucai in his heart, he held Luo Rucai's hand and said excitedly: "Thank you Brother Cao for being so thoughtful about our old Zhang.

You helped us a lot this time, and I, Zhang, will never forget it! "

After they finished talking these few words, Luo Rucai ordered a general to pick out [-] cavalry as soon as possible.

And Zhang Xianzhong also whispered to Xu Yixian and Zhang Dingguo, asking them to return to the Xiying camp as soon as possible, and tell Zhang Kewang about the whole battalion marching to Ying and Huoshan District before dawn, and ask him to make all preparations immediately.

Not long after the fourth watch had passed, Luo Rucai personally sent Zhang Xianzhong out of the village, and accompanied him to the Xiying camp. At this moment, all the soldiers of the Xiying camp had assembled, and the food, tents and other luggage were being put on the mules.

Following the arrival of the five hundred elite cavalry supported by Cao Ying, Zhang Xianzhong lined up behind the Xiying troops and waited for orders. Talked a few more words.

Then, he turned his head to look at Luo Rucai, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Cao, thank you for your kindness. We will meet later, please take care."

Luo Rucai also cupped his hands and said, "I wish you a safe journey and success in no time!"
