Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Zhang Xianzhong said that he was tough, but he knew in his heart that he would encounter a more difficult situation in the next year or two. Zuo Liangyu was the leader. Shangzheng Chongjian, Fang Kongzhao, and Shao Chunjie and other Fubiao battalion soldiers and horses gathered more than [-] officers and soldiers at the junction of the three provinces. It is not easy to move around, and they are likely to be surrounded.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Xianzhong paid great attention to intelligence collection, and what Li Dingguo brought was the latest news from the west of Fangzhou.

"General Zhang Shouren, who conquered the captives, has led his troops to Xinye. The vanguard cavalry is divided into several groups, and they are active in the Jun, Fang, and Zhu areas."

Zhang Xianzhong was holding his beloved Nine Dragons Gold Cup, stroking his beautiful beard, and rarely showed a serious and pondering expression.In the past few years, even if Zuo Liangyu hit him on the cheek with a knife, he would still laugh. While he was being healed, he would laugh like a bell. The solemn expression at this time was very rare for him. up.

"It came so fast." [

On the left of Zhang Xianzhong is a middle-aged man with a kind smile on his face and a strong body, but he looks a little too drunk. He is almost sitting side by side with Zhang Xianzhong, but the table is a little lower. In front of him, even though many people pretended to be casual, there was a little restraint and nervousness in their bones... Zhang Xianzhong had rebelled for more than ten years, killing people was useless, and he had long since taken his own life and the lives of others seriously, such a hero In front of everyone, anyone would be a little scared.

But this middle-aged man wasn't afraid at all, instead he was casual and relaxed in his bones.

Looking at Zhang Xianzhong, he muttered first, then smiled and said: "The sky is falling, and Jingxuan is on your shoulders, what the hell am I going to do?"

It was really relaxing as he said that, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Brother Cao, that's not the case. Your Cao camp also has elite soldiers and strong generals. Which of the two generals, Yang Chengzu and Wang Long, is worse than my western camp? Your brother Cao is even more intelligent. We have dozens of families from Shaanxi There are fifty or sixty people who have the title of king, and it is recognized that the most intelligent plan is you, Cao Cao!"

"I'm smart, but I don't have a big idea. At this moment, to be honest, the big idea is for you to take it, and Zicheng is better than me in this."

Cao Cao, also known as Luo Rucai, is also one of the leaders of the rebel army, and speaking of it, his qualifications are actually much higher than that of Li Zicheng and others. Zhang Xianzhong's strength in the beginning is still weaker than him. Back then, Luo Rucai was in charge. It was an equal cooperative relationship with Gao Yingxiang, King Chuang. It was not until after Gao Yingxiang's death that he gradually began to cooperate with Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng. It is the target of various rebels scrambling to win over, and their strength has been well preserved. After Zhang Xianzhong raised the rebellion flag, Luo Rucai, Hui Deng and others also rose one after another to support each other.

Since they left Shaanxi and went to Shanxi and Henan, these so-called "Shaanxi bandits" have been helping each other, and they have joined forces or separated many times.

Because of mutual understanding, Luo Rucai's attitude is still very casual and not nervous. His eyes are small, and when he looks at Zhang Xianzhong, he doesn't shy away from his own eyes, which are full of slyness.

"Slippery, cunning and deceitful!"

Zhang Xianzhong didn't believe Luo Rucai's words at all. This guy was treacherous and slippery like a ghost.The real major issue is also unambiguous, when the situation is wrong, he gave all his ten-year savings to Xiong Wencan to get a result of recruiting, but Luo Rucai just stuffed a small amount of money into the guard eunuch of Tianshou Mountain and recruited. It is in this matter that we can see the level of rank between the two.

But in the general direction, Zhang Xianzhong has indeed made up his mind.

"Zuo Liangyu has just been beaten by us. More than 1 people died, and more than 1000 elite soldiers escaped. After cleaning up the rest, there are only a few thousand elite soldiers. He captured Ding Lafu and practiced every day. His strength will not be restored in a short time. Yes, within a year, you don’t have to be afraid of him. It’s a dead word to be forced to beat us.”

"Jing Shuai is right!"

"Jing Shuai is right."

"Don't make a fuss, let me continue!" Zhang Xianzhong laughed, put the wine bowl down, and continued: "There are several generals like Chen Hongfan, and the sum is not enough to fight my old Zhang's family. Fang Kongzhao has more than 1 soldiers guarding Xunyang There are only a few elite soldiers in the mountains. What is worrying is that the two lunatics Mengruhu and He Renlong are both generals from Yulin. The soldiers in northern Shaanxi are all fucking capable of fighting. It is not easy to fight. Fortunately, both of them must guard Hanshui, prevent us from smuggling Hanshui from the forest back to Shaanxi, so the two of them can't move..."

Those present were all veterans of the war, and after listening to what Zhang Xianzhong said, they all felt that the fog in front of them gradually dissipated, and the overall situation in the whole Huguang area became very clear and clear.

Luo Rucai's military advisor was surnamed Ji, and he was a scholar who knew military affairs and geography. Hearing what Zhang Xianzhong said was clear and logical, and his analysis was very clear, he was very impressed.He glanced back at Luo Rucai, they both knew each other very well and nodded secretly.

"His mother, if Zhang Shouren hadn't rushed here, we could have a good year in this house and bamboo area. In the second half of next year, the imperial court will have more soldiers and horses, and life will be sad. But now it seems that, A war had to be fought years ago.”[

The topic is very heavy, but Zhang Xianzhong's appearance is very relaxed, even a little playful.

The Eight Great Kings have such a disposition that they can only be covered by a quilt when the sky falls.

If it weren't for this temperament, how could he have dared to burn the Fengyang ancestral mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty, dig up the treasures in the mausoleum, and play with the dead man's gold cup in his hand, and couldn't put it down?

The most desperate ones even chopped down hundreds of thousands of cedar trees from the imperial mausoleum, completely destroying the feng shui of the ancestral mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty.

If you dare to do this, your heart is no bigger than that of a bucket, dare you?

Chongzhen wanted to kill him wholeheartedly, but Zhang Xianzhong only thought that he was playing in the world, and he had already made up his mind to live every day. However, the weakness of the Ming Dynasty also made him see it clearly. .

"Just hit it."

Luo Ru realized that he had to bring something out. It is comfortable to pretend to be stupid blindly, but it will also make people look down on him. He suppressed his smile and said in a deep voice: "Isn't Zicheng in the north of Zhushan? Gucheng, Zhushan, and Fang County were captured, and they were all scanned. One was to replenish food and grass before the year, so that everyone had a good year. Second, to find out the background of the officers and soldiers to see if Zuo Liangyu dared to come or congratulate him. Long is troublesome, the officers and soldiers really made us move, and then give the old left a hard blow. Thirdly, the Fushan soldiers have just arrived, so they have to rest and adjust. We take advantage of this time, let's move first, and catch the officers and soldiers and Yang Sichang by surprise. , also tell this Zhang Shouren to look at the style, our piece of iron is not easy to beat!"

"Well, wonderful, very good!"

Zhang Xianzhong raised his beard and laughed loudly, but his eyes also glanced at Xu Yixian.He had known the news of Zhang Shouren's rush to Xiangyang for a long time, and he had taken this variable into account when drawing up the plan, but Luo Rucai was obviously not a good person, and the news was well-informed, and the overall situation was not bad at all.

After making a plan, we can discuss the details of the action. On such matters, Xiying and Caoying are decided by Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai. Hui Deng is an old man with a lower prestige, and everything is arranged.

The next thing is to discuss the details, and then contact Li Zicheng. It is best for several leaders to meet before the battle and decide on major cooperation matters.

"Brother Cao, I heard that Zicheng suffered a great loss when crossing the Han River, and the people in the old camp lost a lot. He broke up before entering Shangluo Mountain, and gathered a thousand or two thousand people. No matter how many people gather in one year, it will not exceed [-], and the real old battalion soldiers will not exceed [-]. This is not a small loss, right? You have a close relationship with Zicheng, tell him, I have elite soldiers here There are still some horses and horses, if he loses too much, I will make up for him first."

Zhang Xianzhong's tone was sincere and sincere, and Luo Rucai looked touched, and said in a deep voice, "Jingxuan, I knew you were a good person, and I wouldn't take the old grudges with Zicheng to heart. Zicheng also has The book was given to me, and he said that he was young after all, and his temper was not experienced, so he told me to make peace with Jingshuai."

"Zicheng also underestimated me. His idea is also a big deal? I don't know how many people have fought against me until now. I don't know how many people have fought against me. I don't want to let go? In this camp of tens of thousands of people, I don’t know how many people make mistakes in a day. If I really made a mistake, how many people will be left in the camp? Talk to Zicheng and he will understand, Brother Cao, you I also understand that when you are in charge of the plate, you must not be narrow-minded!"

"That's what I'm talking about, so in this case, I'm a peacemaker."

"Okay!"

"Your sincerity, I will reply to Zicheng. How he responds to you is his business, but I have heard from Zicheng about crossing the Hanshui River. Some soldiers were killed in battle and some horses were lost. But the old camp... □It’s all right, none of the generals were damaged, so Jingxuan, tell me, is it a big deal?”

"Of course it doesn't count. We are the old camp. The old camp and the general are here. Even if there are only 1000 people left, we can pull out [-] people."

At the beginning of the uprisings of various rebel armies, tens of millions of people were often chased and beaten by hundreds of officers and soldiers. They had no armored stomachs and weapons, so they relied on cross targets, and there was no real general to command the battle. To die, so often 10,000+ people can't beat thousands of elite officers and soldiers, and they are chased around like sheep.

It is indeed not uncommon for hundreds of people to be beaten and wiped out, and then turn around and pull up a big plate of tens of thousands of people.

Of course Luo Rucai laughed out loud when he heard that, and he even claimed that he was a very good person, so he toasted to Xu Yixian, Ma Yuanli and other Xiying people again and again. It wasn't until after the third watch that everyone dispersed. [
