107 The Yellow Banner Enters Luo Jing He Xiang

"Good! Good! Good!" Li Zicheng slapped the armrest of the seat vigorously, and laughed angrily: "One or two are going to betray my father! I'm going to lose here! Come on! Go get Qiu Zhi Tao and Li Zhensheng will be caught and hacked!"

A wax pill was found on Jian Xi's body, which was a secret letter written by Sun Chuanting to Qiu Zhitao, and agreed with him that when the army was about to enter the battle, he would spread rumors that Zuo Liangyu's army was approaching Xiangyang.In this way, the trespassers' army will be defeated, and it will be difficult to resist the onslaught of Qin soldiers.

It is indeed a good strategy to attack both the city and the heart, but who would have thought that the clever messenger would be caught by patrolling horses.

Not only was he arrested, but he didn't even have time to destroy the wax pills.Anyone who pinches the wax pill can see such a simple, direct, and clear tactical deployment.

"Wait a minute, Marshal!" Gu Junen, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke.He looked at Li Zicheng who was extremely angry, and said softly: "Marshal, this matter can be discussed in detail."

Li Zicheng covered his blind eyes with one hand, squinted his only good eye, and said bitterly: "You treat them like your own family, and they betray me! If you don't kill them, it's hard to get rid of my great hatred!" He remembered how he cultivated Qiu Zhitao like he treated his nephew in the past, and also remembered how he endured humiliation and greeted Li Zhensheng one by one as "big brother". He only felt that the hatred was getting stronger, and the veins on his hands were about to burst.

"Marshal," Gu Junen said with a soft laugh, "How do you know that this is not a trick by the sun thief to kill someone with a knife?"

"Borrowing a knife to kill someone?" Li Zicheng calmed down slightly: "What's the benefit of killing such two people?"

Seeing that Li Zicheng had regained his former composure, Gu Junen smiled and said: "The marshal himself forgot why he appointed Qiu Zhitao as the military governor/government servant?"

Only then did Li Zicheng recall: "Because his father is a senior official in Yanjing, the gentlemen all said that making him a servant will win people's hearts."

"That's right," Gu Jun'en's face darkened, "now all government/government servants are officials from the Zhu Dynasty. Yu Shangyou, a government official/government servant, was a Jinshi in the early years of Xinwei and served as a supervisory censor in the Zhu Dynasty. Xiao Yingkun is in charge of the household administration." , is a Jinshi of Bingchen, who was once an official residence! Yang Yongyu, the minister of rites/government, is the doctor of Qin Tianjian in the Zhu Dynasty, and the other officials, governors, and defense envoys are at least Juren and students of the Zhu Dynasty... If The marshal killed Qiu Zhitao in this way, which undoubtedly made these people sigh with sorrow."

At this time, Li Zicheng regretted that he had hired so many scholars from the Zhu family.But looking back, although these people made him a little unhappy, they actually did many things that the reckless Tian Weng could not do.After having them, it seems that various systems can find templates, and all they have to do is follow suit, which saves a lot of effort, and the effect is not bad.

——It's like wearing wet clothes. It's not comfortable to wear, but it's colder when you take them off.

Li Zicheng thought to himself, looked at Gu Junen, but Gu Junen's resume flashed in his mind: he used to be a tribute student of Zhongxiang, and now he works in the government.

In fact, with Gu Junen's talent, it is easy to replace Yu Shangyou as the servant, but Gu Junen persuaded him based on his seniority and orderly, not to be greedy for a short-term convenience and damage the foundation of the system, so he sent someone to do it.

"Zhu Chao's best method is to sow dissension. He instigated Mrs. Cao (Luo Rucai) to turn against us that day, and later alienated our relationship with Xiying. If it is said that he killed people with a knife this time, it would not be surprising." Qiu Ran The strong man said in a muffled voice.

Gu Junen stepped forward and said: "Marshal, General Quan is right. If you fall into the trap of the thief, the morale of our battalion may become more unstable."

"What if they are really fighting internally!" Li Zicheng glared angrily.

"Many acts of unrighteousness will result in their own death," Gu Junen said, "When the time comes for their annihilation scheme to be exposed, they will naturally be given the canonical punishment, so that those who surrender can feel at ease, and the accomplices will be shocked."

Song Xiance actually admired Gu Junen's generosity and integrity in seeing things, and he could always achieve his goals with upright methods.However, as counselors, once the lord believes in him, the others can only rely on him and become handymen.Turning quickly in his mind, an idea suddenly occurred to him.

"Marshal," Song Xiance stepped forward and said, "Students have a plan. Not only can they test whether the two are really internal counterparts, but they can also follow the plan."

"Let's talk about it." Li Zicheng sat on the top chair, his voice had returned to the deep and cold voice of the past.

"We can let this secret letter be sent to Qiu Zhitao, pretend not to know, and ask him about Zuo Liangyu's movements. If he is really an internal spy, he will definitely say that the left thief has invaded Xiangyang. The marshal pretended to be shocked and said that he would Retreat ahead of time, so that he can send a letter to Sun Thief to lure Sun Thief to attack me in a hurry. At that time, our army can set up an ambush in front, and then General Liu will go to Funiu Mountain to occupy Ruzhou and cut off their food road."

When Gu Junen heard this, he frowned displeased.Counselors offer advice, step by step, interlocking.If he followed his strategy, the next step would naturally be to test Qiu Zhitao, and immediately follow the plan to lure the enemy into the depths. These are all things within his grasp.Although Li Zicheng can see the outline to some extent, the credit is his own after all.Song Xiance stepped forward to break it down, it was purely an act of grabbing credit.

——What a villain!

Gu Junen's face was pale, and he cursed inwardly.

"Where's Mr. Niu?" Li Zicheng turned to Niu Jinxing.

"Marshal," Niu Jinxing said, "the students think that General Liu and the two gentlemen are right. We should take time for internal affairs and make decisions for external affairs."

Li Zicheng took a deep breath: "Then let the thief live two more days. Zong Min, you will take the Zhongquan army to Funiu Mountain and beat Ruzhou down!"

That curly bearded man bowed and promised, it was Li Zicheng's right-hand man, Liu Zongmin, the powerful general who broke into the camp!

Among Li Zicheng's official ranks, General Quan has the highest status.There were only two of them in the camp, one was Liu Zongmin and the other was Tian Jianxiu.Tian Jianxiu is generous and able to win the hearts of the people, so he is in charge of admirals and supervising the camps.Liu Zongmin is good at fighting and commanding the most elite troops in the camp - the Zhongquan Pro-Army.

This army of personal guards of Li Zicheng is now about to throw himself into Funiu Mountain to cut off Sun Chuanting's food supply.

……

"What did Governor Qin say?" In the middle of the night, Zhu Cihong heard someone calling the military report outside the tent, and hurriedly put on his clothes and got up. .

Tian Cunshan hurriedly stepped forward to support the prince, put on Zhu Cihong's boots, and prepared to wear them.Since the first day of his expedition, he has been unable to bear this kind of hard life. He misses the comfort of Yanjing very much, and he is also full of complex emotions of envy, jealousy and hatred towards Liu Ruoyu.

Because Liu Ruoyu was getting old, he didn't go out with him this time, but was only in charge of staying in the East Palace.

"Your Highness, Governor Qin hasn't made a copy yet." Tan Ma Lue made up his mind: "Su Jing, the supervising army, has submitted the original copy, Your Highness, please have a look."

Tian Cunshan hurriedly stepped forward to take the copy, but Zhu Cihong was a little too late.Zhu Cihong took the lead with a stride, copied the open book and began to read.Tian Cunshan had no choice but to go over and light a candle, and approached the prince with a lamp slave in his hand to make the light a little more abundant.

Su Jing's inscription clearly stated at the beginning: This is a copy of the Memorial.He said that his views had been reported to the emperor and the ministers, right and wrong were arbitrarily judged, and His Royal Highness did not necessarily need the approval of His Royal Highness.

This attitude naturally made people uncomfortable, but Zhu Cihong's experience was not as lacking as outsiders saw. In his previous life, he had received letters with sharper words, some of which were even full of curses and personal attacks.In comparison, Su Jing's attitude was far from making him angry.

As long as a person learns to control his emotions and not let his likes and dislikes control his decision-making, even a person with average talent will not do stupid things that are too outrageous.Zhu Cihong glanced over the nonsense in front of him, and focused on Su Jing's judgment on the current situation.

Obviously Su Jing disagreed with the Ministry of War's conservative judgment on "strengthening the walls and clearing the country, luring the enemy to go deep", and did not believe the prince's worries about the road ahead.He insisted that the officers and soldiers were brave and that Sun Chuanting had a good reputation and was a deterrent to intruders.

Zhu Cihong could understand it. In the final analysis, Su Jing would sit in this position of military supervisor because of his determination to forge ahead.If it were a conservative supervising army to cooperate with Sun Chuanting, the governor of Qin who also tends to be conservative, it is estimated that it is still at the stage of garrisoning Xi'an to fight a war of words.

From this point of view, Emperor Chongzhen really knows how to use people well.

Zhu Cihong closed the open book, sat down in front of the desk in the middle of the big tent, and rubbed his eyes again at the map that he had read hundreds of times.Tian Cunshan tiptoedly put the lamp slave on the desk, and persuaded in a low voice: "Your Highness, it's late at night, and it's hurting your eyesight."

Zhu Cihong didn't raise his head, he pulled the cloak with his hands intertwined, and said: "Order the messenger to go to Baofeng again, ask Sun Chuanting to write the book, or go to Ruzhou by himself. Then send orders to the lieutenants of the various departments of the Chinese army, tomorrow is Pingdan Make food, break camp at dawn, and must arrive at Ruzhou before dark. Let Xiao Mo hurry up, and don't let me catch up!" (To be continued.)
