Hearing Gao Yigong's words, Liu Zongmin was furious: "Thief, your mother! Why let Lao Tzu fight? All the way from Henan, Lao Tzu served as a pioneer, and finally took a breath in the capital, but this time Lao Tzu didn't go. Tian Jianxiu, Hao Shaoqi, Li Guo, and you can all go to Gao, and the Dashun Army is not Lao Tzu alone who can lead troops to fight! ”

Several generals named by him were unhappy, Tian Jianxiu was silent with a gloomy face, Hao Shaoqi stood up, and said unconvinced: "Although you Liu Zongshao has defeated some stragglers on the way north, he has also suffered defeats in Baoding, not to mention that after arriving in the capital, the Qing Palace and the fat difference of torture and salary were given to you, and everyone didn't say anything......

Liu Zongmin stared at him and said viciously: "Victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, is it possible that you Hao Shaoqi is a general who often wins?" I don't know who was chased around by Cao Wenzhao back then? Now that Lao Tzu is on the errand? Eight million taels of silver in seven days, if you have the ability, you can also get it out and show it to Lao Tzu! ”

Hao Shaoqi snorted: "Isn't it just a punishment, if it's a human being." Give me ten days, and I'll give you 10 million taels of silver! ”

Seeing that the argument escalated and the two sides were tense, and it seemed that a fight would start in the next moment, Li Zicheng finally spoke.

"Okay, stay alone!"

Several people glanced back at Li Zicheng and barely closed their mouths, but there was still an indignant look on their faces.

"At the moment of the great enemy, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the time of the survival of the Dashun army, and it is still arguing over trivial things in front of Lonely, which is really muddy and can't be on the wall." Li Zicheng said with a pale face, "There are no outsiders here, and it doesn't hurt to say some things." I said that it was an army of 200,000, but the elite who could really fight was only 10,000 or 20,000, and the rest of the people followed to fight a tailwind battle. And the Guan Ning Army and the Qiong Navy are both strong armies that have experienced a hundred battles, no matter who they face, Lone does not dare to claim to be sure of victory, let alone face both at the same time? ”

Li Guo stood up and said: "Why does the emperor want to grow up others and destroy his own prestige? The current situation of the Dashun army is also fought with a knife and a gun, and the battles have been fought a lot, and the mud legs have become elite soldiers, so the minister does not believe that the Guan Ning army and the Qiong navy are three heads and six arms. Besides, it has not yet been determined whether the Qiong Navy is friend or foe, so it is better to send someone to test it, than to speculate here. ”

Li Zicheng nodded: "Guo'er is reasonable. Since he couldn't win over the Guanning army, he advanced and retreated with the Qiong navy. Pull one faction and fight another, and you can always be invincible. ”

Song Xiance rolled his eyes and said: "Your Majesty, even if you want to talk to the Qiong Navy, you can't be in a hurry, wait a while, and when the Guanning army is in the city, see its true strength - I heard that the Guanning army is all cavalry, no matter how strong it is, it can't attack the city on a war horse, as long as our army doesn't go out of the city to fight, what can it do to me?" ”

The eyes of everyone in the hall lit up, yes, the Guanning army is all elite cavalry, is it possible to use these people to attack the city? That's a real outrage.

Hao Shaoqi gave a thumbs up: "Mr. is thoughtful. Hao didn't think of this. In this way, unless the Guan Ning army avoids its strengths and weaknesses, the initiative is in my Dashun's hands. ”

Song Xiance modestly replied: "General Hao praised it falsely. ”

Li Guo asked: "Then what if the Guanning army is accompanied by a large number of infantry troops and has the ability to attack the city?" ”

"Then the north will guard, and the south will talk." Song Xiance said, "The capital is so big, the Guanning army will never be able to besiege the city, so it can only concentrate on attacking Guangqumen in the north." While defending the city, we sent people out of the city from Yongding Gate in the south to contact the Qiong Navy and flank the Guanning army. It would be best if it could be said that Ping Nanhou himself entered the city - I heard that he had no adult heirs, and the whole army was headed by him, if there were three long and two short, I was afraid that the army would be torn apart, and the trees would fall apart......"

Li Zicheng's eyes flashed, and he said knowingly: "As long as he dares to come, inside and outside this Qianqing Palace, ambush a hundred sword and axe hands, and give him a cup to ......."

Song Xiance arched his hand and said: "Then Emperor Hexi will go up to a strong enemy." As long as the Marquis of Pingnan dies, the Qiong Navy is not to be feared, and the Guanning army is running for a long time, the grain and grass are unsustainable, and the stalemate will leave for a few days. ”

"Hahaha......" Li Zicheng laughed loudly, walked down the steps, and put his hands on Song Xiance, "This move is really beautiful, whether it is Guan Ningjun or Qiong Haijun, they are all in Mr. 's calculations." How fortunate it is to meet a talented person like Mr. to assist, with Mr. here, then Dashun is as stable as a rock. ”

"The emperor has won awards, and the ministers dare not be ashamed." Song Xiance was humble on the lips, but he was overjoyed in his heart. Since the Dashun army joined this group on the way north, he has been trembling on thin ice, seizing every opportunity to show his strategy and talents, and accumulating his reputation little by little, because in this group from a rogue family, scholars are not very welcome, as long as there is a mistake in doing things, they will be ruthlessly abandoned. And now, the supreme leader of this group has finally fully recognized himself, and he is just around the corner.

Although this time, the monarch and the ministers deliberately avoided Liu Heizi and others, but with Liu Heizi's usual deliberately made contacts and up and down, under the side knocks, he also learned some clues, plus the undercover Zhang Geming secretly investigated, the two compared the situation they mastered, and the strategy set in the Qianqing Palace was about to come out.

Liu Heizi hurriedly sent someone to sneak out of the city to report the news, so as not to make a mistake in Xia Nan's decision-making. He didn't worry about thinking: Liukou found out the weakness of the Guan Ning army's poor siege of the city, and laid a trap for the general, the strategy of using the Guan Ning army to exert pressure may be aborted, and there is still danger after entering the city, I don't know how the general should break the situation?

After accepting Song Xiance's suggestion, Li Zicheng was not in a hurry to contact the Qiong navy, but sat back and waited for the arrival of the Guanning army. Two days later, he waited for this army that shook Liaodong.

The monarchs and ministers of Dashun gathered in the Guangqu Gate Tower and watched the situation in the north. In the dust, a large number of cavalry slowly approached everyone's field of vision, and even from a distance, you could see the fierceness and conceit of these cavalry. However, in the dust, there was no foot in sight.

Gao Yigong was overjoyed: "Sure enough, as Mr. Song said, the Guanning army is all cavalry. Even if they can fight again, they can't attack the city, and things will be easy. ”

Li Zicheng's eyesight is very good, he kept staring at the opposite side, frowned and said: "Don't rush to conclusions first, and then take a look, Mr. Gu feels that something is wrong." The cavalry kept the speed down, as if they were waiting for something......"

Hao Shaoqi covered the sun with his hand, looked at the other side, and said: "The emperor is right, and the minister also feels a little strange......

After a while, the dust gradually cleared, and everyone on the castle tower was stunned by everything in front of them. I saw that behind a large number of cavalry, there were swords and guns like a forest and banners waving, and tens of thousands of infantry were marching forward with neat steps, murderous, and a suffocating momentum was coming.
