Luoyang Mansion City was broken by the official army, this news made Li Zicheng feel shocked, and even had a feeling that the world was spinning, you must know that Luoyang Mansion City is the base camp of the Righteous Army, money, grain and grass, etc., are all stored in Luoyang Mansion City, with 80,000 Righteous Army to conquer Xiangyang Mansion City, Li Zicheng arranged a large number of eyeliner in Luoyang City, as long as Li Yan and the Red Lady have any trouble, then the Righteous Army stationed here will definitely take action, and will not let any of Li Yan and the Red Lady's plan succeed.

At the beginning of the escape from Sichuan Banzhou, Li Zicheng secretly determined that he must make a comeback, nearly a year, he was very low-key, but there is one thing that he attaches great importance to, that is, a large number of money and grain and grass, years of fierce battles, let him understand a truth, no matter how big the failure is, and no matter how many people are left around, as long as there is enough money and grain and grass, then it can be re-pulled up the team, and with the large-scale recruitment of sergeants at the beginning, showing off the strength, in fact, it is unreliable.

With Li Yan, Red Lady, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and others joining the rebel army, Li Zicheng, who had enough money and food, began to recover his previous momentum and really played the banner of the rebel army, and he didn't expect to suffer a heavy blow so soon.

Li Zicheng must take back the Luoyang Mansion City and store the money and grain in the city, which must not be lost, otherwise the 90,000 righteous troops under his command will be almost impossible to maintain.

Li Zicheng didn't understand, how many people were in the official army, why they were able to capture Luoyang Mansion City in such a short time, you must know that the city wall of Luoyang Mansion City is unusually tall, typical easy to defend and difficult to attack, Li Yan and Hongniang have 20,000 rebel troops under their command, even if 100,000 officers and soldiers attack, it is impossible to take Luoyang Mansion City in such a short time.

After thinking about it, Li Zicheng had to wonder if Li Yan had some other ideas, or that in order to protect his own reputation, he took the opportunity to join the official army and opened Luoyang Mansion City to surrender. And there is another fact that can almost support Li Zicheng's thoughts, that is, the large number of eyeliners planted in Luoyang City have not been able to bring out any news. In such a situation, it is very likely that Li Yan and the Red Lady surrendered to the official army, making it impossible for the eyeliner in the city to leave.

The neighbors were suspicious, and once Li Zicheng had such an idea, it would be difficult to be at peace in a short period of time. To say that in about half a year, his view of readers has changed dramatically, thinking that readers do have good abilities, and there must be some readers around him to assist, so that they can achieve great things, but the loss of Luoyang Mansion City has shaken Li Zicheng's thoughts, and readers do have good abilities, but the readers who are powerless are also the most treacherous and difficult to trust.

Li Zicheng already had major doubts about Li Yan in his heart. However, he won't say it for the time being, he set his eyes on Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance and others, he wanted to know what Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance thought, and he wanted to analyze whether his judgment was accurate from Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance's attitude.

This matter is very important, if Li Yan surrenders the official army, then in the next attack, Li Zicheng will not have any worries, and he is determined to take Luoyang Mansion City, even if it is to destroy the entire Luoyang Mansion City. I don't care.

Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance also learned the news of the loss of Luoyang Mansion City.

Just hearing the news, the two of them were happy, it should be said that among the rebels, Li Yan's status has always been above them. And from a short period of time, they have no possibility of surpassing Li Yan, for such a situation, the two are unwilling, they finally found Gu Junen, and strive to stay by King Chuang's side to attack Xiangyang Fucheng. Unexpectedly, the imperial army was preparing to attack Luoyang Mansion City, making Luoyang Mansion City the main battlefield, and the two even lamented whether God was helping Li Yan, as long as Li Yan firmly held Luoyang Mansion City, and dragged the official army, let King Chuang return to defeat the official army, Li Yan still made great contributions.

What the two didn't expect was that Luoyang Mansion City was actually lost and occupied by the official army.

Niu Jinxing specifically verified the news, fearing that it was a miscommunication, but it turned out to be accurate.

Since Luoyang Mansion City has been lost, then Li Yan cannot have a good ending, whether he is captured by the officials and soldiers or not, there is no way out, it is impossible to turn back and defect to King Chuang, the sin of losing Luoyang Mansion City cannot be eliminated, and it is impossible for the officials and soldiers to forgive Li Yan. The happy Niu Jinxing pulled Song Xiance, and the two drank in the camp tent to celebrate.

In the process of drinking, the two chatted without a word, and they both thought that Li Yan was self-inflicted, as a scholar, he should know how to be humble, but with such a big shelf, how could there be a good ending.

But chatting and chatting, the faces of the two changed at the same time, and they both thought of one thing, the loss of Luoyang Mansion City, the most angry is the king Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng once trusted Li Yan so much, and entrusted Luoyang Mansion City to Li Yan to garrison, now that Luoyang Mansion City has fallen, what will King Chuang think, do you feel that the original choice was wrong, do you think that the reader is unreliable, and he will pick a son at a critical moment.

Thinking of this, the two couldn't be happy, they knew that although Li Yan had contradictions with them, everyone was a scholar, and in the eyes of King Chuang, they were the same kind of people, if King Chuang was angry with Li Yan, then they might not have a good ending.

After all, Niu Jinxing is a person, and Song Xiance's talent is not ordinary, they are not particularly short-sighted people, and they can see a lot of problems, but when dealing with problems, they think more about their own interests, which does not mean that their ability is insufficient.

From the loss of Luoyang Mansion City, the two sensed the danger, who knows if King Chuang would blame the two of them for Li Yan's major mistake, and abandon them from now on.

The two did not suspect that Li Yan surrendered to the official army, according to their understanding of Li Yan, they thought that Li Yan could not do this, after all, Li Yan was rescued from the prison by the Red Lady, and was deprived of his fame, and later took refuge in King Chuang, becoming one of King Chuang's most trusted advisers, and more importantly, Li Yan participated in the battle to kill the former governor of the five provinces, Lu Xiangsheng, which belongs to the category of unforgivable crimes.

In this analysis, the two of them must be stronger than Li Zicheng, after all, they are from different angles, and the two are more able to understand Li Yan's innermost thoughts.

When King Chuang's soldiers came to the camp, it was already dark.

Knowing that King Chuang was going to see them, Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance's faces were a little serious, they knew that their prediction was accurate, it depended on how to deal with King Chuang's inquiry this time, if the answer was not good, I was afraid that they would completely lose their future.

Entering King Chuang's tent, Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance felt very bad, King Chuang had his back to them, although he couldn't see King Chuang's expression for the time being, but the breath revealed in the camp was very wrong.

"Mr. Niu, Mr. Song, do you think Li Yan will surrender to the official army?"

Li Zicheng did not call Mr. Li, but directly called Li Yan, which should be a huge change in attitude.

Niu Venus barely hesitated to speak.

"King Chuang, I think that Brother Li will never surrender to the official army, Brother Li knows very well that there is no way out for the surrendered official army."

Li Zicheng turned around abruptly and looked at Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance.

Li Zicheng's eyes were very sharp, and his face was also iron-blue, but Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance were not afraid at all.

"But why did Luoyang City fall so quickly?"

"I think there are two reasons, one is that the official army adopted the tactics of sneak attack, and the sneak attack was successful, and the other is that there are 10,000 rebel troops stationed outside the city, and the officers and soldiers can take advantage of the chaos to pour into the city."

Niu Jinxing said very simply, without any mud and water, and did not explain too much, he believed that Li Zicheng, who had experienced a hundred battles, could understand the truth.

Li Zicheng pondered slightly, nodded slightly, in fact, he also thought of this, after all, the information obtained, the army led by Xiong Wencan is still in Kaifeng Fucheng, and will not launch an attack for the time being, since there is such a situation, it means that it is very likely that Xiong Wencan has an illusory shot, and even revealed false information, so that the tactics of sneak attack can be explained, not to mention that there are more than 20,000 officers and troops under Xiong Wencan's command, and there are not even sergeants from Huguang, Henan and other places, the number of people must be more than 20,000, with superior troops, using the tactics of surprise attack, it is also possible to quickly capture Luoyang Fucheng.

"What Mr. Niu said is reasonable, since this is the case, it means that the number of officers and soldiers is quite large, they have occupied Luoyang Mansion City, so should the righteous army launch an attack and recapture Luoyang Mansion City."

"In the next believes that it is necessary to recapture Luoyang City, one Luoyang City is the base camp of the Righteous Army, recapture Luoyang City, for the Righteous Army is of great importance, the second is that although the official army captured Luoyang City, but their strength can not be many, it is expected that there will be no more than 30,000 people, plus the attack on Luoyang City, there must be losses, so the Righteous Army attacked the City, occupy a great advantage, three officials and troops have no support, the eight kings Zhang Xianzhong in the Weihui Mansion activities, and has penetrated into all parts of Shanxi, so that the army of Shanxi can not support, Henan Guards Army, need to guard Kaifeng City, it is impossible to send a large number of sergeants to support, Huguang's Guards Army, but also to protect Xiangyang City, it is impossible to draw a lot of troops, Sichuan is far away from here, even if you want to support, it is not a short time to arrive, so the righteous army can rest assured to attack Luoyang City. ”

Li Zicheng nodded frequently, and a rare smile appeared on his face.

Walking out of Li Zicheng's camp, Niu Jinxing wiped the sweat drops from his forehead, he knew that he and Song Xiance had passed the test, and his status in the righteous army in the future would definitely surpass Li Yan's, as for Li Yan, whether he was still alive or not, he didn't know, even if he could escape the catastrophe, it would not be possible to have a high status in the righteous army.
