"What is Song Xiance doing? Didn't he send news before that he had besieged the main force led by Qi Wei in the Wushi Mountain?

Could it be that just with some other fish that slipped through the net, we dare to turn back and fight Yanshi, you must know that we have released thousands of men and horses in Dagu Pass and Yanshi City.

If you want to conquer Dagu Pass in just one day, and then conquer Yanshi City, it is absolutely impossible to be just a small group of people who have slipped through the net. ”

Niu Jinxing saw that Li Zicheng was both angry and sad after receiving the news that Yanshi was broken and the grain and grass were burned, and he was also very puzzled.

"Give an order to Xian Ce, let him destroy Qi Wei as soon as possible, and then give this king to eat the official army that defeated the Yan Division." Li Zicheng said in a gloomy voice with a gloomy face.

After Niu Jinxing heard Li Zicheng's order, he actually wanted to stop Li Zicheng.

After all, before they divided their troops in Luoyang, they had already planned it, Li Zicheng was personally responsible for the strategy of Kaifeng Mansion, and Song Xiance was responsible for dealing with the White Dragon Army and stabilizing their back road.

Now, they don't know much about the situation on Song Xiance's side, and Song Xiance must have his own plan.

At this time, Li Zicheng rashly gave such an order to Song Xiance, which could easily disrupt Song Xiance's original plan.

However, when Niu Jinxing saw Li Zicheng's angry eyes and gloomy face at this time, he still chose to shut up very wisely.

Because Niu Jinxing knew that even if he said it at this time, Li Zicheng would not necessarily listen.

Besides, it may not be a bad thing to let Li Zicheng give Song a sense of urgency.

Fortunately, Li Zicheng was still very sober at this time, and he didn't mess up because of this, and at the same time, Li Zicheng also knew very well that he couldn't take care of Song Xiance's side at this time.

At this time, his main energy should be on the next, the attack on the county towns west of Kaifeng Prefecture.

At this time, Li Zicheng led an army of 80,000 people, and after several days of strong attack, he finally overcame the natural danger of the Tiger Prison Pass, which can be regarded as opening the door for him to drive straight into Kaifeng Mansion.

At this time, Kaifeng Mansion is like a nut that has been peeled off and its hard shell has been peeled, and Li Zicheng can feast and enjoy the deliciousness.

Therefore, when Li Zicheng learned that Yanshi was broken and the grain was burned, he did not have the slightest intention of withdrawing his troops except for anger.

Conquering the Tiger Prison is where his confidence lies.

If Li Zicheng hadn't overcome the Tiger Prison Pass at this time, he might be in a hurry.

Because the food in his army could not last 80,000 troops for a few days, once the food was eaten and they had not broken through the Tiger Prison, it would be over.

If one can't get the 80,000 rogues under Li Zicheng, maybe the tree will fall and the monkey Sun will disperse.

But now that they've taken the Tiger Prison, everything is different.

The grain was all burned, and it didn't matter.

Anyway, they are going to enter the territory of Kaifeng Mansion next, but there has been no military disaster here, and it belongs to a rich land.

When there was no food, they went to grab it.

If this kind of thing were to be put on other armies, it would be absolutely devastating.

However, now that this is on a group of powerful rogues, and it is a powerful bandit that has broken into the land of abundance, this is not a problem at all.

"King Chuang, Song Xiance's affairs over there will be handled by him, let's take care of our own side first.

Now that we have broken through the Tiger Prison Pass, and then on the way to Kaifeng Mansion, the official army will no longer be in danger to defend, and the only remaining Xingyang is still more troublesome.

According to our original plan, after we have conquered the Tiger Pass, we should immediately take advantage of the victory to capture Xingyang, and then march east to capture Zhengzhou and arrive in Kaifeng. ”

Niu Jinxing talked eloquently and suggested to Li Zicheng.

"However, now that Yanshi has fallen, the food we carry with the army can barely last for about three days, and at this time, we should not go to attack Xingyang again."

"The advisor is right, it's time for us to change our plans." After listening to Niu Jinxing's words, Li Guo on the side also nodded and agreed.

"Well, then military advisor, tell me, do you want to give up attacking Xingyang?" Li Zicheng heard the persuasion of his subordinates, his face became a little better, and he asked Niu Jinxing.

"King Chuang, come and see." Niu Jinxing walked to a map of Kaifeng Mansion and said to Li Zicheng, Li Guo, Liu Zongmin and other thief generals next to him.

"Xingyang is an important town, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and with our strength, it will not be a problem to fight down.

However, for the sake of safety, I still suggest that two generals, Li Guo and Liu Zongmin, each take 5,000 men and horses, and move towards some other small county towns and Dahuzhuang Fort.

They are responsible for re-attacking the grain and grass for our army, while King Chuang continues to lead the main force eastward and attack Xingyang, which is the safest way. ”

"Well, with food in your hands, your heart is steady, this king agrees with the plan of the military advisor to change, what about you?"

After listening to Niu Jinxing's words, Li Zicheng also felt that it was necessary, of course, the more food he could get, the better, so he looked at the other generals and asked.

"We have no objections." The other bandit generals shouted in unison.

"Okay, since this is the case, then pass on the king's order, rest for the night tonight, and set off tomorrow, and the army will rush to Xingyang.

Li Guo, Liu Zongmin obeyed orders, now this king will give you 5,000 men and horses, as long as you attack there, you can do whatever you want.

But after three days, each of you will bring back 20,000 stone of grain to each of the kings, otherwise the military law will be engaged, do you hear clearly? ”

Li Zicheng looked at Li Guo and Liu Zongmin with his eyes, and gave an order.

"Yes, obedience."

In the face of Li Zixiao's attack on Yanshi and the burning of grain, Li Zicheng chose not to pay attention to it, he can only move forward now, all the way forward, and lay Kaifeng.

Even, even if Li Zixiao defeats Luoyang at this time, it is estimated that Li Zicheng will not lead his troops to retreat.

Now, in Li Zicheng's eyes, Kaifeng is a big and fat piece of meat, and Luoyang has already been squeezed dry by them.

Now even if they go back, it will be difficult to squeeze out much oil and water from Luoyang, how can they feed so many people and horses under them!

Therefore, as long as Li Zicheng is not stupid, he will look for ways to continue to attack Kaifeng, and Luoyang in the back can be kept as much as possible, and it will be forgotten if he can't keep it.

Regarding the so-called back road problem, Li Zicheng doesn't care even more.

Who are they, they are rogues, and the way they have been fighting is to fight there and grab there, which means that they are not short of food, and they have no fixed way back.

Now that the power of the imperial court in Kaifeng Mansion is weak, Li Zixiao feels that there is a way to retreat everywhere, and when the time comes, he will completely kill from other directions.

When things developed to this point, there was a very strange scene, even if Li Zixiao led the troops and poked Li Zicheng's backyard buttocks.

And Li Zicheng also chose to ignore it, and after changing his plan slightly, he continued to attack Kaifeng Mansion.

Such a situation is like 'you hit yours, mine hit mine', even Li Zixiao didn't expect that situation, and it seems that it can't be changed.

"What? Is the Tiger Prison broken? ”

Two days later, Li Zixiao got the news.

And just as Li Zixiao led his troops to leave from Yanshi, turned to the southeast again, went out day and night, and secretly marched to a village and town called 'Luzhuang'.

And this is only thirty miles away from Qi Wei's besieged Wushi Mountain.

In this way, Li Zicheng did not mean to withdraw his troops and return, but continued to march into Xingyang, which seems to be the strength of this king of Chuang. It's also getting more and more confident. ”

Li Zixiao also quickly judged these through intelligence, and couldn't help but have some admiration for Li Zicheng in his heart.

"So far, it seems." Han Tong nodded.

"Forget it, Li Zicheng's side is out of reach for the time being, let's worry about the Kaifeng Mansion, now solve our problems here first."

Li Zixiao waved his hand and said, Li Zicheng did not withdraw with troops, in fact, it was also expected by Li Zixiao, if it was him, he would also choose like this.

"Fugui, there is no movement on Li Zicheng's side, and it is impossible for Song Xiance to have no reaction at all." Immediately afterwards, Li Zixiao looked at Zhang Fugui, who had just rushed back, and asked.

You must know that at this time, Song Xiance's situation is not like Li Zicheng, who can rob a lot of grain by sending out a team of men and horses.

Song Xiance is besieging Qi Wei now, so he shouldn't have attacked it yet, and he doesn't know how long it will take next.

And in addition to the mountains around him, there is no county seat and government Zhuangzi at all, and Song Xiance didn't even have the opportunity to order troops to grab grain.

In this way, the 50,000 army under Song Xiance provided grain and grass for the main northern Yanshi.

Now that Yanshi's grain has been burned, Song Xiance may be able to obtain grain and grass supplies from Gongxian County.

In this case, Song Xiance would never let Li Zixiao lead such a white dragon army to wander to the north of them.

Because in that case, as long as Li Zixiao still leads troops to haunt the north for a day, it will always endanger the safety of their grain routes.

In this case, if Song Xiance didn't send someone to clear Li Zixiao, it would be too much to say.

Sure enough, hearing Li Zixiao mention his name, Zhang Fugui felt it, and said respectfully: "General, according to the information we obtained."

After Song Xiance learned the news, he was also furious, and immediately ordered Liu Tichun to scatter the cavalry in his hand to the north, asking to find our traces of the outside world.

At the same time, Song Xiance ordered Liu Tichun to strive to completely annihilate us after finding us. ”

Zhang Fugui cautiously said, keeping his head down the whole time, and if he didn't call him, he wouldn't take the initiative to speak.

Zhang Fugui was afraid that Li Zixiao would find Qi Wei to be besieged before, and their intelligence would be untrue, and they would blame Qi Wei for being besieged on his head, so he was so careful and respectful.

Li Zixiao didn't think about it so much, and after hearing Zhang Fugui's answer at this time, he also smiled slightly and said, "Haha, it's an old acquaintance again." ”

Liu Tichun's previous thief cavalry, Li Zixiao had seen it with his own eyes, but he didn't expect Song Xiance to send Liu Tichun back this time.

It is really because at this time, in the hands of Song Xiance, there is only such a cavalry team as Liu Tichun, and the remaining more than 40,000 people are infantry troops.

For the attack besieging Qi Wei, the thief cavalry in Liu Tichun's hands did not seem to have any effect at all, and it was also the most suitable to be sent out at this time.

"Okay, if it's really the thief cavalry led by Liu Tichun, we may be able to design and eat it, then it will definitely be a heavy blow to the thief."

Li Zixiao suddenly had such a bold idea in his mind, and he immediately said it.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Zixiao finished speaking, Han Tong, Huo Gang and others next to him all looked at Li Zixiao with disbelieving expressions.

Really, Li Zixiao's idea is too bold, you must know that Liu Tichun has nearly 10,000 thieves and cavalry.

Even if they lost more than 1,000 cavalry in the previous battle with them, but even so, the number of cavalry in Liu Tichun's hands at this time was still more than 8,000.

Even in terms of total strength, it has already surpassed the men and horses in Li Zixiao's hands at this time.

And they are still cavalry, most of Li Zixiao's hands are infantry troops, and there are only more than 2,000 cavalry.

In this case, it is too difficult for Li Zixiao to ambush Liu Tichun.

However, Li Zixiao was by no means casually talking, a preliminary plan quickly popped up in his mind, if it was really executed well, maybe he would really succeed.

If Li Zixiao is really annihilated, Liu Tichun, the main force of the thief cavalry, will be a huge blow to Li Zicheng, who is attacking in Kaifeng Mansion, or Song Xiance, who is attacking Qi Wei in Wushi Mountain.

"Han Tong, now you go down, throw out all the scouts in your hands, and if you find any clues of the army of thieves, you must come back and report immediately."

Li Zixiao ordered.

"Yes."

"Zilong, I'll give you thirty horses, and you can survey along the road from Luzhuang to Gongxian, act as our pioneer, and see if we can find a suitable ambush site."

"Yes."

"Order the whole army, let's rest in this Luzhuang tonight, and set off for Gongxian tomorrow morning, remember to eliminate the traces, and don't let Liu Tichun find us for the time being."

"Don't worry, General, Liu Tichun would never have imagined that we would dare to appear here now."

Soon, the night passed, and as soon as it was dawn the next day, Li Zixiao led his men and horses to evacuate Luzhuang and march towards the northeast.

And at this time, Li Zixiao personally rushed to Ruzhou City to fight the thieves and block the news that the army of thieves from attacking Kaifeng also spread quickly.

Soon after, the imperial court knew, and naturally Chongzhen also knew.

When Chongzhen heard that Li Zixiao led his troops to Ruzhou and fought with the army of thieves, although he was overjoyed, his face was still ugly.

With the precedent of Li Zixiao not listening to the announcement last time, Chongzhen actually hated Li Zixiao very much in his heart.

Otherwise, Chongzhen would not have issued an order last time and removed Li Zixiao from his official position as General Zhenguo.

Therefore, Li Zixiao at this time is actually already a cloth cloth.

But with Li Zicheng raising troops from Luoyang more than a week ago and swaggering to invade Kaifeng Mansion, Chongzhen was even more anxious.

Xi'an is now lost, but Kaifeng must not be lost again, at this time Kaifeng is the most prosperous city in the Central Plains of the Ming Dynasty.

Once Kaifeng is captured by the thieves, it will be unimaginable, and the Central Plains will probably be occupied by the thieves at that time, and the land of the Ming Dynasty will be cut off.
