Chapter 696: Thieves and Thieves Civil Strife

At the beginning of November, the people of the Liuying who had gone south returned one after another, and by this time they had already captured the city of Runing, and they had gained a lot, and even the vassal king of the inner country, Zhu Youqiao, the king of Chong, his younger brother Zhu Youcai, the king of Heyang, and Zhu Cihui, the prince of the world, were all captured.

Li Zicheng began to appoint Zhu Youjiao as the uncle of Xiangyang, but soon changed his mind and issued a military order to execute Zhu Youqiao and others in Miyang, Henan.

Except for a small number of people who continued to stay in Runing Mansion, Nanyang Mansion and other places to conquer the city, most of the remaining people, especially Li Guo and Yuan Zongdi, who broke into the camp, all returned to Henan Mansion.

However, at this time, the contradiction between the camp and the revolutionary and left battalions has become bigger and bigger, Luo Rucai and others are obsessed with sound, Li Zicheng is very unaccustomed to it, and every time he says: "The drunken people are also." ”

Luo Rucai, He Yilong and others were also very dissatisfied with Li Zicheng's frugality and stinginess, and scolded the same: "The post pawn is close to it, and it is dirty to my clothes." ”

They privately insulted and insulted the heavens, believing that Li Zicheng's style really insulted the name of the righteous army and rebelled against this sacred word. If they rebelled to live like this, they would have gone early.

They scolded very hard in private, translated in the words of later generations, you Li Zicheng is a turtle, you have money or a local old man, it is difficult to become rich and handsome if you are poor and have gold fingers, that kind of stingy and masochistic style, you can't get out of the nobility for ten generations.

and even scolded Li Zicheng for being inconsistent, he was a bitch and wanted to set up a chaste archway.

Aren't you Li Chuang propaganda and other nobles and lowly, rich and poor? It seems that the most talked about is from my wealth. Do you die for nothing, right? It seems that your ultimate goal is to be rich and rich, and the current demillet is just pretending.

And we don't believe it when we kill it, you really won't enjoy it, the deeper the depression you call, the more violent the outburst will be, we don't believe it, the dog can eat.

Li Chuang, a hypocrite!

This is like us, and the true husband is also one. Two is two. Truly show your true nature.

Not only that, but on the general strategy of attacking Shaanxi or Huguang, they also had endless arguments with the camp.

Yi Luo Rucai, He Yilong, etc. Of course, it is to enter Shaanxi. Returning home.

Lake wide that place. There are many mountains and waters, and their horse team is difficult to deploy. Maybe when you are not careful, you will be blocked by the officers and soldiers somewhere, and you are very dissatisfied with the intention of breaking into the camp and going south.

One day, a serious dispute broke out between Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai over the issue of whether or not they should "monopolize the land."

On this day, Li Zicheng set up a wine swallow and said: "I and you draft Ze, don't measure yourself so far." Now when the Tuhu Guangguan is in the middle of the pass, cut the soil to divide the king. ”

Luo Rucai replied: "We are rampant in the world for fast ears, why do we specialize in the land?" ”

Li Zicheng was very angry and extremely dissatisfied with Luo Rucai's answer.

The contradictions between the various departments of the camp are of course seen clearly by all parties, such as the government side, the governor Hou Sui, who has gone south to Kaifeng, said excitedly: "The departments of the joint camp among the thieves, such as Cao Cao's one, peep Li Zicheng has the heart of annexation, and he guesses the second phase." ”

He thought that he could set up a gap and break his heart, and even secretly ordered Chen Yongfu, the chief soldier of Henan, and Gao Mingheng, the governor of Henan, to "use thousands of gold to rebel and kill you." ”

At this time, the "reply letter" forged by Henan Governor Gao Mingheng to Luo Rucai also fell into the hands of Li Zicheng.

Of course, Li Zicheng and others welcomed the literati to vote, so they gave convenience to the scholar surnamed Chen, and he lobbied between Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai, trying to order the two thieves to plot with their tongues.

He first said to Li Zicheng: "You will change." ”

Li Zicheng should not.

This scholar surnamed Chen went to Luo Rucai's side again and said: "The general suffers from evil horses and good horses, and he uses words to brand them, so that he can identify himself as a group." ”

Luo Rucai said: "Good, give birth to it for me to do." ”

Chen Sheng is divided into 'front', 'back', 'left', 'right' branded horse characters, and the first branded left is a group, and the report is self-contained: "Luo Yingdong Tongliangyu, horse with the left word for the number." ”

Self-confession, even more gnashing teeth.

A civil strife was brewing in all departments of the camp, and the cause was Li Zicheng's autocratic heart, and he was attached to the soldiers, and it was already unbearable that the battalions were not subordinate to each other, and for Luo Rucai and others, they could not bear to break into the camp and give orders to be unified.

However, he fought with Li Zicheng, and obviously lost the upper hand with his own strength, even if the revolution, left, Cao Ying, and the camp were combined, they couldn't beat the camp.

So at that time, the heads of the family got together, He Yilong asked Luo Rucai to come up with a plan, and Luo Rucai's plan was thirty-six plans, and he went as the best plan.

As long as the soldiers and horses returned from the south, they pulled out the camp and left, and from then on, the sea and the sky were wide, where could the Ming Dynasty go, and why bother to mix with Li Chuang?

……

Regarding the signs of this civil strife and rainstorm, Sun Kewang watched closely as Li Dingguo, and the deterioration of the relationship between the camp and the Revolutionary and Zuo camps may not have been without the help of their two brothers, especially Sun Kewang fanned the flames, which aroused He Yilong and others the greatest dissatisfaction with Li Zicheng.

Regarding this, Li Dingguo also asked his eldest brother privately why he did this, Sun Kewang laughed and said: "If you want to become an official, kill people and set fire to be recruited!" ”

He said to Li Dingguo: "Second brother, I have thought about it for my brother, and there is no future for being a rogue and wandering around, so we have to recruit an anchor." It's just that if you want to recruit security first, you need soldiers and horses first......"

He analyzed for Li Dingguo, and now among several coalition armies, needless to say, there are tens of thousands of horsemen and almost 200,000 foot soldiers. On the left side of Ge and Zuo, there are also more than 10,000 horsemen and tens of thousands of foot soldiers, as for the Cao camp where they dedicated their camp to Luo Rucai, now there are only a few thousand horsemen and tens of thousands of foot soldiers.

They have a separate camp and fewer horsemen, so they must create civil strife!

also took advantage of this good opportunity to fish in troubled waters, and collected the remnants of Ge, Zuo and Cao Ying, and with capital, he had the capital to recruit An.

He was full of energy and said to Li Dingguo: "For my brother, I can see clearly, Li Chuang wants to go south to Huguang." At that time, he will also plot against Shaanxi. So we avoided these two places, went to Nanzhili, went to Fengyang Mansion, and Luzhou Mansion, so that we had soldiers and horses at hand, and after recruiting An, it was easy to find a position as a deputy general of the general army. ”

He said: "Nanzhili is rich, we settle down to operate, follow the example of that Wang Dou, and build a high wall." Extensive Grain ...... Why is Wang Dou flying and domineering all the time? It's because of the skin of the government on the body. It won't be like us who have been surrounded and suppressed, and it will be difficult to settle down to gather ......"

He said: "If you don't gather, where will the strong army come from?" I really thought that if I coerced some hungry people, I could achieve great things. Don't look at Li Chuang's dancing happily now. ...... in the future"

He sneered a few times. There was a look of disdain in his eyes.

Li Dingguo sighed: "Yes, there is no future for being a rogue, and the soldiers and horses will come quickly." Disperse faster, sometimes think about the past, it's like a dream. ”

He sighed and looked at the Xuanfu Times in front of him, all of which were collected through various channels with a lot of money, one of which was about the large-scale development of Saibei: "Wang Dou's forces are more numerous, and if we continue to wander, the gap with him will become bigger and bigger...... It's time to recruit ......"

It's just that he can't bear it: "They are all rebel brothers, and Cao Ye treats me even more well......"

Sun Kewang disagreed: "Those who achieve great things are not informal, and Bo is also stubborn, and they are the precursors of the king, and they are the forerunners." It is also their honor to be our forerunner. ”

The two of them discussed and talked, at this time their camp was also located outside the camps, and around the camp, there were many routes to escape, which was naturally deliberately arranged by Sun Kewang and others, so that when something happened, they could escape.

Their old camp is also on a ridge, with a wide field of vision, and you can see at a glance what is going on. The two brothers were even stationed in a ruined temple, and at this time there was heavy snow in the sky, and they saw a white expanse everywhere.

In the misty snow, the majestic Luoyang City faintly looked, looked to the west, and saw the continuous camps spreading across the sky, densely packed with thieves gathered in Henan Mansion, each family and camp, and the place where they could camp was occupied by them.

The cold wind was howling, the snow was falling like hemp, and the two brothers were wrapped in skins, wearing fur hats, and thick scarves around their faces and necks. They stood in front of the temple, listening to the terrible cold wind constantly rushing behind them to break the temple and break the door, and the whirlwind poured in through the gap in the door panel, and the temple was full of rustling sounds.

Looking at the camp, Sun Kewang muttered, "Just yesterday, all battalions of soldiers and horses gathered to return to ......."

He paused, and Li Dingguo continued: "So it's almost there, just these two days." ”

At this moment, Xiao Xiao's horse neighed sound, and a rapid sound of horses' hooves turned from the other side of the mountain, the two brothers glanced at each other, and Li Dingguo said softly: "It's here." ”

Sun Kewang said: "Pack up the softness and prepare to run ......"

……

The contradictions between the various departments of the camp finally broke out, and Li Zicheng decided to solve the problem by force.

Early in the morning of the 3rd day of November, Li Zicheng invited Luo Rucai, He Yilong, Ma Shouying, He Jin, Liu Xiyao, Lin Yangcheng, Sun Kewang, and Li Dingguo to attend the banquet in the old camp under the pretext of discussing the strategy of attacking the south and taking the west to the west.

Although He Yilong and the others decided to go, they still decided to go to the banquet with the idea of gathering and dispersing, but Ma Shouying was silent with Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo, and left the camp that day.

During the banquet, Li Zicheng ordered the soldiers who were ambushed on the left and right to execute He Yilong, He Jin, and Lin Yangyang, and Liu Xiyao knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, willing to be loyal to the camp and avoid death.

On the same day, Li Zicheng personally led a hundred elite horsemen to Cao Ying, saying that he had an important matter to discuss with Luo Rucai, and then killed Luo Rucai after entering the account, and announced to Cao Ying's soldiers that Luo Rucai was guilty of collaborating with the enemy, which was the letter from Gao Mingheng, the governor of Henan, explaining that he was forced to act.

However, the killing of Luo Rucai, He Yilong and others still caused a great shock in the battalions, and many of their subordinates were not convinced.

The battalions and the armies dispersed, each looking for their own way out, among which the battalion had the most people and horses, such as Luo Rucai's nephew Wang Long, the personal general Yang Shenzu, the general Li Rugui and others, as well as the old Hui Hui Ma Shouying, and there were many people and horses in the Ge and Zuo, who took refuge one after another.

Afterwards, Sun Kewang said that when Li Dingguo ran out of Henan Mansion, his horsemen had reached 10,000, and there were 50,000 foot soldiers.

They remembered their goal and only went all the way to Nanzhili.

After Li Zicheng killed Luo Rucai, He Yilong and others, although he had been pacified for a long time, the harvest was also quite large, and most of Cao Ying, Ge, and Zuo were still owned by him.

He also implemented the strategy offered by Gu Junen at that time, and in the leap November of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, he was known as a million-strong army, and marched from Nanyang to Hubei and marched to Xiangyang. (To be continued.) )
