The money was also donated, and the matter was discussed, but Huang Chao found that Wang Teng's face was still a little sad, and his body suddenly shook, recalling the trouble that Wang Teng said just now, he couldn't help but calm down his thoughts, and asked: "General Wang, I heard you just now, it seems that there are other troubles that need to be solved in this matter?" ”

"yes!" Wang Teng nodded a little frustratedly, and then explained to Huang Chao and everyone in a low voice: "The original plan discussed with Jin Gongzi was to divide the goods from the Jiangnan area, concentrate a large amount of grain and grass, and then hand it over to General Meng Kai in Shangzhou to take care of it, and use the soldiers and horses of Chang'an and the elite sent by General Meng Kai to recapture Tongguan, and then the grain and grass can be safely transported to Chang'an!" But, but now. ”

Speaking of which, Wang Teng doesn't have to explain too much, not only Huang Chao, but even the old lady doctor of Zhongtai Hospital can understand that Meng Kai was defeated in Shangzhou a while ago, and now he doesn't even have the exact news of his remnants, the only thing he knows is that ** has not been able to capture Meng Kai, as for whether Meng Kai is dead or alive at the moment, everyone is not very sure.

"What a good thing that is!" Huang Chao's heart suddenly cooled in half, and the hope that had just been ignited was almost extinguished again, leaving only a few small sparks still bouncing around, and they could be completely extinguished at any time.

"The only way is to withdraw from Chang'an!" Wang Teng hesitated, and in the whispered discussion of everyone, he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty! Now Tongguan's ** is no longer the enemy on its back, and our army is in Chang'an City, but it is a lonely city without help! If a small number of troops are sent, they may not be able to capture Tongguan in one fell swoop, and once the news leaks, it is very likely to be pursued behind the back of the nearby Fengjia army, and the gains will outweigh the losses! ”

"Withdraw from Chang'an?" The flame of hope in Huang Chao's heart jumped violently, and then wilted again, the faint flame of hope kept flickering in Huang Chao's eyes, and he almost subconsciously asked Wang Teng: "What do you mean?" We launched Chang'an, broke the Tongguan, and then went out of the customs into the Central Plains? ”

"Your Majesty, Luoyang, the eastern capital, is also a desirable place! The defense there is no worse than Chang'an, and today's Chang'an, even if we can hold it, we won't be able to recover its vitality without three or two years of operation! Wang Teng suddenly became smarter, his eyes flashed with wisdom, and he analyzed for Huang Chao very calmly: "Out of the pass, all the way to the east, as long as Your Majesty leads the army, according to what the ministers see, no one dares to stop Your Majesty's edge!" As long as the eastern capital is occupied, with a little planning, I believe that several nearby states will be easily taken by our army, and the entire Central Plains region will soon be in His Majesty's pocket! ”

"Your Majesty! I think it must not be! As soon as Wang Teng's persuasion and analysis stopped, Zhang Li immediately stood up and objected, evacuating Chang'an, for others, it is estimated that the personal loss is not big, but for Zhang Li, there is too much gain and loss.

At present, Zhang Li has just been named Chang'an to stay behind, this is not enough to burn incense before and after, if Huang Chao decides to evacuate Chang'an, then why do you want him to stay in Chang'an? And once the nest retreats eastward, Huang Chao will definitely regain the power of the army, and the Chang'an stay of this gift will be completely useless.

However, if it is really a retreat, it would be better, at least Zhang Li could run away. The problem is that this suggestion was put forward by Zhang Li's sworn enemy, if Huang Chao adopted it, Wang Teng would have to make even more excessive demands, asking His Majesty to continue to keep a small part of the army in Chang'an to protect the **, and at the same time have been guarding Chang'an, Kyoto, to hit the morale.

If this is really the case, Zhang Li's Chang'an will be preserved, and there is no need to worry about whether the military power in his hands will be suddenly taken away one day. But Zhang Li needs to consider another question, in the face of the sharp **, can he lead a small army, can he survive?

"Your Majesty! I think that Kyoto Chang'an is the capital of my great Qi! If you leave at will, won't it shake the foundation of the Great Qi country? Zhang Li didn't know how to persuade at this time, so he could only come up with a set of theories that Wenchen often pulled to persuade, but as soon as he spoke, he was opposed by Wang Teng.

"General Zhang, you can't say that!" Wang Teng laughed secretly in his heart, he couldn't have imagined that it would be such a time, Zhang Li was still talking about these useless theories, pursed his lips, Wang Teng smiled at Zhang Li with contempt, and asked proudly: "General Zhang, our army has no food and no money now!" If according to the national capital you said, hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Daqi guarded the national capital they had done, would they be able to fill their stomachs? Can you get a military salary to support your family? Besides, wasn't this Chang'an also decisively discarded by Tang Ting at the last moment? Moreover, if according to what General Zhang said, in the past few hundred years, has Tang Ting discarded the national capital a relatively small number of times? ”

"That's, that's different!" Zhang Li was suddenly a little stunned, he never thought that he would be defeated by Wang Teng, and he was still speechless by what the other party said, and in the end he just shook his arm angrily, turned his head to look at Huang Chao again, and persuaded in a deep voice: "Your Majesty!" The minister thinks that this matter needs to be considered in the long run! Don't make hasty decisions! After all, it is about hundreds of thousands of soldiers of our Great Qi, and even about the life and death of Great Qi! ”

"General Zhang! If you know it's a big deal, why think about it in the long run? Now that everyone in the DPRK and China is here, why don't you think of a way to let Your Majesty make a decision as soon as possible? Up to now, Wang Teng doesn't feel that the world is spinning, his legs are also strong, the sweat on his forehead has gradually disappeared, and the whole person is radiant, and he is like two people when he first entered the Hanliang Palace, and even the whole person exudes wisdom.

"Your Majesty! I think! The distribution of troops in the Central Plains region is relatively small at present, which is suitable for our army to retreat eastward! After Wang Teng once again let his rival be deflated, he continued to persuade Huang Chao: "As long as our army makes every effort to take the eastern capital, by that time, the surrounding Xiangzhou, Huazhou, Bianzhou, Songzhou, and even Chenzhou and Bozhou can become the development direction of our army!" As long as we leave Chang'an, our army will be able to meet the rich merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is no need to worry about the food and salary of the army! Moreover, the Eastern Capital is also an important companion capital of the Tang Court, and if our army takes the Eastern Capital, it will also give a certain blow to morale! At that time, strike while the iron is hot and reopen the territory in the Central Plains! Fight against the Tang Court! ”

"Hmm... It seems to be true! Huang Chao was moved, after all, the current situation is very bad, and the blueprint that Wang Teng just sketched for him happens to be very beautiful, even if Huang Chao doesn't want to leave Chang'an, but he has already begun to be moved. What's more, Huang Chao is also in a helpless time now, if he doesn't go, he will face hundreds of thousands of soldiers who may raise troops to rebel at any time because they have not received food and salary, this pile of mess, Huang Chao can't carry it, he doesn't dare to carry it, and he doesn't want to carry it.
