Since Li Zicheng went out to Luoshan, it has been nearly three years, during this time, the army first scooped the western Henan region, then Luoyang, and recently flooded Kaifeng in the east of Yuzhou.

At present, most of the places in Yuzhou are barren because of natural disasters and wars, and only the south of Yuzhou still has grain.

In December, in Nanyang City, seven or eight hundred thousand rogues came one after another, a large number of rogues were active in the Nanyang Basin, the thief army was taking grain everywhere, the states and counties were in tatters, and the people were struggling to make a living.

At this time, with the defeat of Sun Chuanting, the Ming Dynasty no longer had the strength to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng, and the thief army had completely opened up the situation.

How to fight next, the decision is not in the Ming Dynasty, but in the hands of Li Zicheng, if he fights Shaanxi, then the Ming Dynasty will lose Shaanxi, if he fights Xiangyang, the Ming Dynasty will lose Xiangyang, and the Ming Dynasty has no ability to fight back.

At this time, the only problem that bothered Li Zicheng was the food needed for the march and battle. Now the big households in the west of Yuzhou and the north of Yuzhou have been eaten clean by Li Zicheng, and the east of Henan has become a Ze country, and the thieves can only eat in the south.

Outside the majestic Nanyang City, a group of thieves gathered, and the thieves' camps were like stars and moons, all over the outside of Nanyang City.

These camps are of different shapes, surrounded by fences, the big ones are like Cao Ying Luo Rucai, the camp is more than ten miles, there are tens of thousands of tents, and the small ones also cover an area of more than 100 acres, and there are four or five hundred tents.

In the east of Nanyang City, Liu Heizi and Zhao Yingyuan each set up a camp. After the victory in Yuncheng, the two immediately transferred troops to the west, wanting to show their faces in front of Li Zicheng, but the two did not catch up with the decisive battle.

When they arrived in Xiangcheng, Li Zicheng had already gone to chase Sun Chuanting, and the two of them also hurriedly chased after them, but when they caught up with Li Zicheng, the decisive battle between the official army and the bandit monarch had already been fought.

The two only saw the corpses of the intrusive army and the official army covering the entire field, and the two who did not catch up with the decisive battle were captured by Li Zicheng and worked hard for several days before the battlefield was cleaned up.

Although it didn't help much, Li Zicheng understood the intentions of the two and remembered the two. After Li Zicheng defeated Nanyang, he began to discuss meritorious deeds, Zhao Yingyuan was promoted to the general of Sipin Guoyi by Li Zicheng because of his meritorious ambush of Zuo Liangyu and his heart for the lord, and was transferred back to the Zhongquan Battalion to obey orders, and Liu Heizi finally promoted from the sixth rank of the lieutenant to the fifth rank of the mighty general, replacing Zhao Yingyuan to guard the first house of De, and fulfilled his dream of being a general.

This made Liu Heizi a little complacent, and he thought of climbing on Gao Yihuan's head again, and his heart became happy.

This time, Zhao Yingyuan and Liu Heizi tacitly took the credit for Yuncheng's victory on themselves, and did not improve Yihuan much.

Liu Heizi knew that Gao Yihuan was capable, but if he had the ability, he had to let the people above see it. If you can't see it, it's hard to get ahead even if you have the ability.

Liu Heizi admits that he is indeed inferior to Gao Yihuan in terms of personal ability, but he is far better than Gao Yihuan compared to the drill camp and the Shangguan.

On this day, Liu Heizi was proud, thinking that after returning to Germany, he would become Gao Yihuan's boss again, and Gao Yihuan would have to do things for him, so he felt happy in his heart.

Liu Heizi was in a happy mood, humming a little song in his mouth, and while walking in the camp, he thought that he had to keep an eye on Gao Yihuan after returning to Germany, and he couldn't let him slip away from his hands and be on an equal footing with him again.

"Du~" Liu Heizi was walking, a palm brigade suddenly caught up, he just said a word, saw Liu Heizi turned around with an unhappy face, frightened a spirit, and quickly changed his words: "General~ General, Gao Duwei came to Nanyang, and brought a lot of things to be dedicated to the king!"

Liu Heizi's face was full of doubts when he heard this, "The second year of high school came to Nanyang stupidly and brought a lot of things?" ”

"Yes, General Zhao has already gone over to see it. I'll have to pass by us later, and I've heard that there are more than 100 cars. ”

Liu Heizi became a general, and the whole person was a little floating, he had only been separated from his second brother for more than a month, and he thought he knew the details of the second brother, he smiled on his face, "Where did you hear the rumors, the second year of high school is a bit stupid, but a hundred big cars, who to bluff?" Did he carry chopping wood? ”

Liu Heizi smiled and scolded a few words, and then waved his hand, "Go!" Let's go see my brother Gao too, and by the way, tell his brother the good news that I became a general, haha~"

At that moment, Liu Heizi left the camp, led a few subordinates, and came to the road leading to the city gate, and saw that many people had gathered on both sides of the road, and the thief camp outside the city had already caused a sensation.

Zhao Yingyuan, Liu Heizi, and Chen Baoping almost all came out of the Defu, and many other people came to the side of the road, and even Yuan Shizhong from the small Yuan camp frowned and looked at the convoy from afar.

Everyone looked to the west, Gao Yihuan, wearing silver armor, rode on a healthy horse proudly, followed by two hundred cavalry behind him, and then there were long long carts, one after another, under the escort of the armor-piercing soldiers, there was no end in sight.

This time, the second brother was very high-profile, and many belongings were directly exposed, the purpose was to let the thieves know that he had donated a large amount of property to Li Zichengjin.

In this way, the second brother's reputation is famous, which is convenient for gathering the thieves in the future, and Li Zicheng must give him a response, and he has to be an official.

So many people watched him sacrifice his property, Li Zicheng didn't reward him much, and the thieves got benefits in the future, who handed it over to Li Zicheng?

At this time, there was a commotion on both sides of the road, and they immediately went crazy when they saw the silver ingots of the whole car, the whole box of pearls, and the three-foot-high coral. Many rogues were attracted by the things in the car, and they pointed at the items on the car, and exclaimed from time to time.

The second brother rode on a horse, kept arching his hands left and right, and greeted the rogues on both sides, as if he was a general who had returned to the dynasty victoriously, accepting people's cheers.

There were constant voices of inquiry on both sides, asking where so much silver and so much property came from, while Zhao Zhuzi and others in the back looked proud, saying that they had defeated Runing Mansion and brought up the Chongwang Domain.

Liu Heizi and Zhao Yingyuan stood together, saw the situation in front of them, heard everyone's exclamation, and couldn't help but look at each other in amazement.

Zhao Yingyuan's heart was shocked, "Dog day drop turtle grandson, what's going on?" It's only been more than a month since they were separated, how could this guy build down the Chongwang Mansion? ”

Liu Heizi scolded in his heart, "It's not kind! Lao Tzu said that the second year of high school stupid why didn't he come with him, and gave Lao Tzu the opportunity to show his face, it turned out that he already had other plans in his heart! ”

For a while, Zhao Yingyuan and Liu Heizi had mixed feelings in their hearts, but looking at the situation in front of them, Gao Yihuan gave so much money to King Chuang, and the two of them still didn't understand that Gao Yihuan was definitely going to be promoted this time.

At this time, the second brother Gao was riding on a horse, waving his hand, and moving forward, and he had already arrived in front of them. The two couldn't help but look at each other, and suddenly they both laughed and walked out with laughter on their faces.

"Haha~ Brother Gao, Brother Liu is here to pick you up."

"Righteous joy! It's done well, it's really good, it's a long face for Ben~"
