Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 666

Hearing that Zhang Xianzhong had come to join him, Li Zicheng felt a little surprised.He was surprised for nothing else, he felt that it was not easy for Zhang Xianzhong to turn back from the Ming camp, Zhang Xianzhong was worthy of being the Eight Great Kings.

Because Li Zicheng was able to bring five thousand pioneers to create a rebellion, it was because of Zhu Yousong's plan for him. He rebelled according to the order. To put it bluntly, it was acting.Otherwise, how could he easily instigate the entire vanguard battalion?

But now that Zhang Xianzhong has surrendered, Zhu Yousong must order people to treat him seriously, and find opportunities and excuses to clean him up.The Daxi Emperor Dashun taught him too many lessons, and it was impossible for Zhu Yousong to let him rebel under the order.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Xianzhong was able to instigate so many people and break out of the Ming camp. This Zhang Jingxuan is not easy!

In addition, Li Zicheng was very happy with Zhang Xianzhong's arrival.He needs a general like Zhang Xianzhong too much now. Li Zicheng now feels that his power is weak. Although the building on the mountain is as solid as gold, he knows that his few thousand troops are powerless against Zhu Yousong's Daming.

The arrival of several thousand troops like Zhang Xianzhong enabled them to hug each other to keep warm.Zhang Xianzhong is not inferior to Li Zicheng in terms of bravery, and Zhang Xianzhong did not come alone. There are also the famous Funan King Liu Wenxiu and Qian Guogong Mu Tianbo. These two Li Zicheng are also well-known, and they are both wise and brave generals There are more than 2000 generals, which undoubtedly doubled their strength.

In addition, after this catastrophe, Li Zicheng has a kind of affection for Zhang Xianzhong.After all, the two of them are relatives, each other's father-in-law and each other's son-in-law. This kind of relationship is rare in the world.

If digging further into the relationship between the two of them, it's even closer.More than ten years ago, the two of them were comrades-in-arms in the same trench. Later, they each led an army, dominated one side, cooperated again, and fought side by side with the official army again.When it comes to the meeting in Gucheng, both of them will probably remember it fresh.

All these, Li Zicheng was very happy with Zhang Xianzhong's arrival.

As for Zhang Xianzhong rebelling against the order this time, in order to make money from him, Li Zicheng didn't think about it at all.

It's not because Li Zicheng is simple-minded, who would have thought that Zhang Xianzhong would use the strategy Li Zicheng used to deal with Zhang Xianzhong again on Li Zicheng.

The two of them came and went evenly, but now it's not a big saw, it's the minds of the two emperors, and only simple fools can't see through it.

If Zhu Yousong wanted to use such a strategy, it was really below the level, so Li Zicheng didn't think about it at all.

Li Zicheng ordered the whole mountain to be decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the gates of the mountain were opened wide as if celebrating a big festival. He personally led Li Guo and Gao Yigong down the mountain to welcome them.

When these two legendary characters met, they held four big hands together, and then laughed.

Zhang Xianzhong really knows how to act. He felt uneasy along the way, not knowing the good or bad fortune of this trip.

Now he is biting the bullet, pretending to be nothing, just like Li Zicheng performed in front of him back then, the fake show is real.

Li Zicheng gave Zhang Xianzhong a punch: "Jingxuan, you are here. Li has long realized that you must go this way. Now you really came, and you came so well."

Zhang Xianzhong laughed, and punched Li Zicheng back, "Hongji, you really don't hate me, Lao Zhang?"

What Zhang Xianzhong was talking about was that two people turned against each other in Kuizhou a few months ago, and they fought to the death.When Zhang Xianzhong said it at this time, it seemed that he was in a more magnanimous mood.

Li Zicheng smiled, "Remember the grudge? I resent you for not coming! Our two brothers have fought and killed all our lives. I really didn't expect that we could fight each other. This is all thanks to Zhu Yousong! We can fight together."

"This foolish lord thinks that if I keep my Na'er as a hostage, I, Zhang Xianzhong, can be manipulated. It's just wishful thinking... It's just that Na'er is suffering..."

When Zhang Xianzhong said this, he looked very sad.

Li Zicheng's nose is also a little sore, because Li Na is not only Zhang Xianzhong's wife, but also his Li Zicheng's daughter, and he thinks of Gao Guiying, his married wife, who have been in the same boat together through thick and thin, and fought on the battlefield for many years, but now they are separated from each other abruptly Now, relatives have become enemies.

Li Zicheng didn't dare to think about these sad things, he tried his best to hide himself, and stared back the tears in the tiger's eyes.

Comforting Zhang Xianzhong was also self-comforting: "Jingxuan, don't worry about it. This stupid king flaunts how he treats the captives preferentially, and what he does. He keeps what he says and keeps what he says. Now Guiying and Na'er should not suffer any torture. Yes, otherwise, I, Li Zicheng, would not let him go if I were a ghost! Alright, let's go up the mountain."

The two men took the reins from the soldiers, jumped on the horses, and walked side by side.

Li Guo, Gao Yigong, Mu Tianbo, Liu Wenxiu, etc., the two generals, followed closely by the personal guards.

The gongs and drums on the mountain sounded together, and some people fired a few muskets, which was a salute.There was also orchestral music.Just like that, more than 2000 people including Zhang Xianzhong were connected to Qixing Mountain.

Li Zicheng publicly named Zhang Xianzhong as the deputy head of the village, that is, the second in command.Mu Tianbo and Liu Wenxiu were also added as Xunshan village masters respectively, with Li Guo, Gao Yigong, Liu Fangliang, and Yuan Zongdi having similar ranks.

At this moment, Zhang Xianzhong felt relieved a little, and thought to himself, His Majesty is really a fortune teller, such a low-level trick that was unexpected, unexpectedly slipped through Li Zicheng's eyes.

Thinking about it again, I dare not take it lightly.Li Zicheng is not easy to be fooled, until the last moment of success, he can't be sloppy at all, otherwise the success will fall short.

"Come here, arrange a banquet, and clean up the dust for Jingxuan."

Li Zicheng was really bold, he gave an order, and his generals slaughtered cattle and sheep, and soon there was a mountain of meat and wine on the table.

Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng sat at the same table, Mu Tianbo and Liu Wenxiu also sat next to Zhang Xianzhong, besides Li Zicheng himself, Li Guo and Gao Yigong were also sitting.

They tossed and exchanged cups, chatted loudly, and drank it. That night, both Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong staggered from drinking, became dizzy, and even became very drunk.

Of course, Zhang Xianzhong and Mu Tianbo, Liu Wenxiu knew it well, to a large extent, their drunkenness seemed to be faked.Otherwise, if they utter the truth after drinking and miss a word, they will die without a place to bury them.

Although Li Zicheng didn't suspect them anything, this was still a dragon's pond and a tiger's den to Zhang Xianzhong and the others, and they didn't dare to relax their vigilance at all.

Now on Li Zicheng's Qixing Mountain, counting the more than 2000 horses brought by Zhang Xianzhong, the military strength has reached 8000.

When Zhang Xianzhong arrived, Li Zicheng felt a lot more at ease. With such an extra arm, he could be worth a thousand horses and thousands of troops.

This time the Ming army came with 30 to 20, and Li Zicheng would not take it to heart, and stepped up his military training all day long.

A few days later, someone from the mountain reported that Zhu Yousong had arrived in Jiuzhai County with an army of 20...
