Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 341
"Cao Cao is right. This time it is Chuang Wang. You are not kind. You tricked many of our brothers to follow you to attack Xi'an City. Now that the city has been captured, it has also provoked the imperial court's [-] frontier fortress army. He is a warrior of hundreds of battles, how should we resist?" Zhang Xianzhong, the eighth king, also echoed.

The leader of the 36th Battalion trembled and shivered at the thought of the imperial court recruiting the main force to exterminate them.

"Damn, why didn't you white-eyed wolves say that when they invaded Xi'an City to grab money and food?! You are afraid of the words of the officers and soldiers, so you are doing rebels! You should go home and hug your little daughter-in-law and wait to starve to death! "The angry Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang kicked the wooden table in front of him, the soup on it splashed all over the floor, and the wooden basin rolled on the ground.

Gao Yingxiang's roar made the leaders of the 36th Battalion shrink their pupils and curl up involuntarily.Between life and death, cowardly and greedy, they fell into silence.

"Brother Gao is right! Most of us rebelled because we had no food to eat. Now we have a lot of food. If we are timid, everything we have will be taken away by the officers and soldiers. It will not only be us who are hungry. If we die, our family will starve to death!" Li Zicheng stood up to support the leader Gao Yingxiang.

With a murderous look, he swept across the leaders of the 36th Battalion present.All the leaders seemed to be afraid of Li Zicheng's glance, their eyes either wandered around or to the ground, and they didn't dare to line up with Li Zicheng's gaze.

They are afraid of the officers and soldiers, and they are also afraid of Li Zicheng, who can win and lose with the officers and soldiers with 3000 troops and block the officers and soldiers who have been encircled and suppressed several times in the past two years.

"Backward is a dead end, and forward can still have a chance, how do you choose?!" Li Zicheng continued to stare fiercely at these leaders.

Frightened by Li Zicheng's coercion, the leaders of the 36th Battalion fell silent.

"Luo Rucai, you boasted that you could stand shoulder to shoulder with Cao Cao, the hero of the late Han Dynasty, so everyone called you Cao Cao, but in my opinion, your name is too real." Behind Li Zicheng, a general with his right hand on his sword said coldly. said coldly.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the leader of the 36th Battalion had a gleam in his eyes.It's okay to be reprimanded by Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang and Chuang General Li Zicheng, but now even Li Zicheng's subordinates dare to yell at them, big bosses, where should they put their face?Moreover, the person who came up to attack verbally was Cao Cao Luo Rucai, who was quite powerful in the 36th Battalion.

"Grass, who are you?! The leader of the 36th Battalion is talking, how can it be your turn to interrupt! Someone, smash his mouth!" Luo Rucai was furious, and slammed the wooden table.

"Hmph, in the past Cao Cao dared to confront Yuan Shao's 1 northern army with a weak force of 36 at Guandu. Now our [-]th Battalion has no fewer troops than the court officers and soldiers, and is evenly matched. Why do you want to flee without fighting?" Li Zicheng's general Zhang Yuan was unmoved and still said coldly.

Luo Rucai heard that Zhang Yuan's words were not condescending, and he didn't seem to restrain himself at all. He was even more furious, and the veins on his head burst out: "Is it true that preserving strength can be regarded as fleeing without a fight? Don't slander my reputation, Cao Cao!"

"Brother Luo wants to touch my brother, and it depends on whether I agree or not!" Li Zicheng stood between the two of them, "Retreat? Where else can we retreat? Why don't we send our troops eastward and head-on with the main force of the imperial court! We eliminated Tongguan After the officers and soldiers, there will be no more troops in the pass that can stop us! At that time, we will cross the Yellow River, go to Shanxi, fight all the way to the capital, and achieve a great cause that has never been seen in ancient times!"

Li Zicheng spoke out the grand plan and great cause he had in mind, but as soon as he finished speaking, everyone, including his boss Gao Yingxiang, looked at him with strange eyes.

"Li Zicheng, are you okay? We are in a precarious situation right now. It's hard to say whether we can get through this difficult time. Why are you talking nonsense?" Gao Yingxiang asked.

"The Chuang general wants to be the emperor and wants to go crazy. He also wants to fight all the way from here to the Forbidden City to seize the Zhu family's world. It's really ridiculous!"

"Don't think that with a battalion of [-] guns, you can be invincible in the world. Don't take us and the officers and soldiers seriously. This place is [-] miles away from the capital, with millions of troops blocking the way, and thousands of cities are indestructible. It seems to be the same as some rural place in the capital. Ridiculous!"

The leaders of the 36th Battalion, especially Luo Rucai, who was enraged, laughed even more.

"Aren't you willing to create great things with me?" Li Zicheng stood helplessly among the crowd, but found that they were either laughing or avoiding his gaze.

"Chuangjiang is probably suffering from insanity. I think we should retreat to northern Shaanxi, which is our territory. We are familiar with the terrain and can deal with officers and soldiers calmly." Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong said, "If something goes wrong, we can still do it."

"I agree." The leaders of the remaining 36 Battalions nodded one after another.

Although Li Zicheng's boss Gao Yingxiang did not express support for Zhang Xianzhong's statement, he was just taking care of Li Zicheng's emotions.

The leader of the 36th Battalion made up his mind to temporarily withdraw from the Heluo area and the city of Xi'an, which had been captured with great difficulty, and then gradually left this thousand-year-old capital that had been looted and dilapidated.

Li Zicheng watched with distress as he led the 36th Battalion for the past two years and made great progress in vain, and his heart ached.

Zhang Yuan always stood by his side: "Brother, I have told you more than once that the military power must be firmly in your own hands before you have the right to speak. Now that the 36th Battalion is in a state of disunity and dissatisfied with each other, it will fail sooner or later. If To turn the tide, you must turn the 36th Battalion into your own army and eradicate dissidents, so that you can control the 36 people in the 8th Battalion. When you want to attack, just say a word, and countless people will work for you !"

Li Zicheng looked in the distant direction of Tongguan: "Before I believed in the brotherhood with them, everyone would join hands to overthrow the imperial court. I didn't expect that they were just sparrows and could not work together at all. Brother, what you said is right, maybe it's time to send them away." Eradicate and turn the 36th Battalion into the 36th Battalion of our two brothers."

"Brother, what are you talking about? It's not the 36th Battalion of our two brothers, but your 36th Battalion. You will become an emperor in the future. I only want to be a good general of my brother." Zhang Yuan said.

"Hahaha, you are my real brother, Li Zicheng! That group of stinky shit, they want to return to northern Shaanxi, just right, Zhang Yuan, what happened to the army you secretly trained in northern Shaanxi?" Li Zicheng said.

"A hundred days of raising soldiers is enough for one use." Zhang Yuan said.

"Okay, when the time comes, let's do it!" Li Zicheng showed his fierce eyes like a hero for the first time.
