Xu Changqing thought that the red lady was joking, but she just said it casually, but she didn't expect her to take it seriously, and obviously paid a lot.

This made Xu Changqing suddenly a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say, after all, Li Yan was also in the formation......

"What are you doing stupidly? Why don't you drink the soup while it's hot? ”

Seeing Xu Changqing's somewhat cute appearance, the red lady's pretty face was slightly red, she bit her red lip, and said busily.

But as she spoke, she also realized Xu Changqing's embarrassment, and hurriedly added: "If you are sick, what should we do if there are so many brothers in our model army?" ”

Xu Changqing hurriedly smiled: "Thank you Hong, thank you Sister Hong." I've always been in good shape, so I should be fine. ”

Hurriedly picked up the bowl and drank it carefully.

The red lady looked at Xu Changqing's careful drinking of the soup, and a smile appeared on her pretty face, but in an instant, there was some indescribable pity in her beautiful eyes.

At this point in her life, she realized that people are too complicated.

Although she really wanted to communicate with Xu Changqing for more things, or even go further, she also understood that this was like a moat, which could hardly be crossed, and she couldn't pull Xu Changqing down the abyss for her own desires.

Xu Changqing finished drinking the ginger soup, and the red lady didn't say anything, picked up the bowl and left.

Watching her figure leave, smelling the familiar fragrance remaining in the big tent, Xu Changqing was also in a trance for a while.

What the hell, life is difficult!

……

Early the next morning, Xu Changqing received the matter of Emperor Chongzhen's 'royal debt' in Beijing, and he was a little silent for a while.

To be reasonable, this is actually a very good idea.

Merely...... Emperor Chongzhen chose the wrong object and delayed the best time......

The first to put forward this idea was the original cabinet Lao Xue Guoguan, Lao Xue engaged in other aspects in general, but engaged in finance, to be precise, engaged in 'Tang Clan', it is still very slippery.

If Emperor Chongzhen had listened to Xue Guoguan's suggestion and built this set of 'national debts', promising high interest rates, connecting the palace nobles of the Beijing Division with the common people, and forming a community of interests, there are many things, it is really hard to say.

It's like a bank for generations to come.

If you owe hundreds of thousands, they can kill you, but if you owe tens of millions of dollars, they will definitely have to treat you as an ancestor, for fear that you will have an accident.

But at this time, the overall situation of Daming has collapsed, and everyone should be too busy to find a way to find a way to do it, how can they take this plate?

The key is that Emperor Chongzhen's reputation among the people has already collapsed......

In terms of the Beijing Division, Xu Changqing was beyond the reach of the whip at this time, and after understanding, he threw it away and devoted himself to the current situation of the model army.

Before the middle of the hour, the team continued to march eastward against the autumn rain that had already been much finer.

Zhang Qingchuan and Zhou Kunpeng were still in the slave camp at this time, but by this time, they had gradually adapted to the rhythm.

Even if the slave camp is not good, it is all dirty work, and the brothers went to the mountains a few days ago to pull the red-coated cannon, and they almost died of exhaustion, and their arms and waists were broken.

But it is these trainings that have made the bodies of the two of them much better than before, although they have not been trained by the regular army, but a fierce spirit has gradually been revealed from the two of them.

In the rain, the two brothers led several mules to pull a large cart at the same time.

This cart is full of grain and grass, even if it is heavy, it needs to be pushed many times, but this is already a very easy job, and it is also their luck, and the guys who pull the red-clothed cannon in the back, that is the real dead power.

The two sides are driving the cart forward, and they are communicating in a low voice.

"Brother Zhang, have you heard? The thieves are now about to be forced into Jingshi City, how can things be like this......"

Zhou Kunpeng's face was full of chagrin, and he felt distressed and couldn't breathe.

He grew up in the old mansion in Huzhou since he was a child, and he is the eldest son of his grandson, except for Xu Changqing's side, he has never been wronged, and he has no way to deal with the situation of Daming at this time.

Zhang Qingchuan is a little more mature than Zhou Kunpeng.

His hometown is Hejian, after all, he is closer to Jingshi, and he also contacted Vanity Fair earlier, and after being slapped by Xu Changqing a few times, he has grown rapidly.

"A lot of things, we used to be superficial, but now when we calm down and think about it carefully, it seems unexpected, but in fact it is reasonable. How many victories has the imperial court fought over the years? Hey......"

He sighed deeply, raised his eyes to the sky, and muttered: "The mountains and rivers are broken and the wind is fluttering, and the life experience is ups and downs and rain." ”

Zhou Kunpeng touched the rain on his face and said, "Then, Brother Zhang, you say, what should we do now?" What does our uncle think? Didn't he go to the rescue of Jingshi? If he really doesn't go, I'm afraid, he will really have to confirm the notoriety of 'national thief'. ”

At this time, although the two still hated Xu Changqing very much, they were more afraid, and after being in the group of the model army for a long time, they gradually began to integrate into the model army, and more began to think about problems in the position of the model army.

Especially the deeper they understand the model army, the more they understand that Xu Changqing's background is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people, even if he is not as powerful as the homeless army at this time, he may not have the ability to decide the situation in a war.

Zhang Qingchuan frowned slightly, looked around, and saw that no one noticed them, so he shook his head and said, "Uncle Zhongyi's intentions, how can we speculate?" If there was no Zhongyi Burka in Tongguan, and the main force of the thieves was contained, I am afraid that the current situation would have been even more chaotic. Brother Zhou, don't say more, let's do what we have in front of us! ”

As he spoke, he lowered his voice again and said, "Brother Zhou, I always feel that Uncle Zhongyi is treating us well, and he seems to be strict with us, but he doesn't mean to polish us, we must try our best to seize this opportunity." ”

"Huh?"

Zhou Kunpeng suddenly became clever, he actually realized this, but it was not transparent enough, at this time, Zhang Qingchuan was a little bit, and he suddenly understood it: "Brother Zhang, you mean ......"

"Fuck it, it's stuck in the car again! You guys, come over and help! ”

"Good come!"

Zhang Qingchuan originally wanted to mention Zhou Kunpeng, but at this time, the car pulling the red-clothed cannon behind broke down again, and neither of them said anything more, and hurriedly ran to the back to help.

Not far away, Xu Changqing watched this scene, and the corners of his mouth curled.

The Chinese nation, this huge dynasty, is not without available people, but for various reasons, many things have been distorted!

Without experiencing the pain of the skin, how can these people understand the true meaning of preciousness?

……

The Jingshi borrowed debts and boiled, the model army continued to hurry, but the exile army continued to play triumphantly!

Taiyuan City.

Due to the geographical location, light snow was already falling at this time.

Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin, Song Xiance, and Niu Jinxing were not affected by the weather at all, and they rode all the way to this side.

At the head of the city, looking at the majestic city, several people were in a good mood.

Liu Zongmin laughed and said: "Emperor, Xu Changqing retreated to the Central Plains, not only let Tongguan open, but also liberated the elite of Liu Fangliang's department, the next step, let's take Baoding, we can attack Xuanda!" At that time, our righteous army will be two-pronged, and it will be able to force the Ming Court under the Jingshi City a year ago!"

Song Xiance hurriedly patted his horse and said: "Emperor, our brothers, we have killed so many good men in battle, and now we finally see hope." ”

Li Zicheng flicked the snow foam on the felt hat, and the whole person was also full of spirit: "These, all the soldiers have worked hard, everyone works together!" Now, with the will of the people, our righteous army will surely move forward and calm the world as soon as possible! ”

Everyone was sycophant, the atmosphere was eager and comfortable, and even the chill from the Mongolian steppe on the head of the city was also dispelled a lot.

After thinking about the future for a while, Li Zicheng also shifted the topic to the topic, "Ladies and gentlemen, I heard that Wang Pu, the king of Dingbei in the Ming court, has fled to Datong, my righteous army, how to deal with it." ”

Unlike the silky smooth and silky of Yuan Zong's first department on the eastern front, which was about to approach Baoding Mansion, the first division of the northern front was now in trouble.

It was none other than Zhou Yuji, who had just been promoted to the chief soldier of Shanxi and guarded Ningwu Pass at this time.

Zhou Yuji didn't have many people at this time, only five or six thousand, and they were all remnants and new troops, but he was very charismatic, and he was stuck in Ningwuguan, the fortress in the north, so that Gao Yigong's army of more than 100,000 people was almost five days, and he still couldn't break the city.

Liu Zongmin sneered: "Dingbei Bo Wang Pu? Hehe, it's just a greedy businessman, don't worry! But this new Shanxi commander-in-chief Zhou Yuji is a bit interesting. However, with his manpower, what is the difference between wanting to block the path of hundreds of thousands of our rebel army and using his mantis arm as a car?

Emperor, everyone, you can rest assured. Master Gao is a good hand, at most three or five days, there will definitely be good news. What I'm worried about now is Xu Changqing's dog thief! He didn't go to King Qinwang in Jingshi for the first time, but retreated to the direction of Kaifeng, what he planned was not small! ”

As soon as he heard Xu Changqing, the originally comfortable atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

Song Xiance was also a lot more solemn, and said in a deep voice: "Emperor, what you said is very true. Xu Changqing is a person with a heart and vision, which is really different from ordinary people. If he retreats to Kaifeng, not only will he be able to get supplies from Kaifeng, but the supply line from Shandong will also be able to keep up. Although they can't pose a threat to our rebel army for the time being, once our rebel army takes Xuanda and Baoding, they will inevitably face a tough battle! ”

Everyone nodded, and there was some silence for a while.

Xu Changqing's power was not obtained for no reason, but the bones of countless enemies were piled up, and even if their righteous army was powerful at this time, it was also one of the bitter masters.

At this time, Niu Jinxing smiled triumphantly: "Emperor, everyone, don't worry. Xu Changqing and his model army are indeed very strong, and in the past, we really had to have a lot of trouble. But now, hehe, it's just a chicken! ”

"Huh?"

Everyone looked at Niu Venus in some surprise.

Obviously, this cannon is a bit too big.

Liu Zongmin especially disliked, he Liu Ye had suffered a lot from Xu Changqing's side, now, what does this bull's nose mean?

Li Zicheng was also a little displeased, but his city government was getting deeper and deeper, and he didn't show half of it, and said with a smile: "Military advisor, why do you say this?" ”

Niu Jinxing also knew that his burden was a little too intense, and he didn't dare to hold it up anymore, so he hurriedly explained with a smile: "Without him, it's just two words!" ”

As he spoke, he explained carefully and vigorously: "Emperor, everyone, if my righteous army does not occupy the general trend of the world, and does not have so much popular support, it is really difficult to fight Xu Changqing for his life.

But Xu Changqing is not an immortal after all!

He chooses to go to Kaifeng now, it is indeed safe, but when he is safe, he rushes to Beijing, our righteous army, has already formed a trend that has swept the world, and at that time, my righteous army may not be hundreds of thousands of troops, but millions, or even more! The time and place are favorable, so why be afraid of Xu Changqing? ”

When everyone heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up.

Li Zicheng's momentum also changed rapidly, and he couldn't help laughing: "Military advisor, this is a golden and jade good word!" A great reward! ”
