Aspiration

Chapter 112 Grand Marshal

However, it is unrealistic for Li Laiheng to block Sun Chuanting alone, at least most of the people present disagree.

Therefore, everyone unanimously disagrees.The reason for disapproval is that Li Laiheng is not strong enough to use a legion to deal with the military group of the Ming Dynasty represented by Sun Chuanting.

Li Yan is an exception.

Li Yan believed that Li Zicheng kept the strategically important area centered on Luoyang, managed half of Henan, and released Li Laiheng's corps to deal with Sun Chuanting. As long as Li Laiheng's strategies and tactics were used properly, it was entirely possible to completely wipe out Sun Chuanting's vital forces.

Li Zicheng's thinking is the same as everyone else's. He subconsciously believes that Li Laiheng is just a baby. The young man has not suffered setbacks. Will let you get out."

This is Li Zicheng's denial and affirmation of Li Laiheng.Negating means denying his rhetoric against Sun Chuanting alone; affirming means that the title of Li Laiheng's army will not be revoked.He summed up the topic, and we should stop discussing it.

He was eager to discuss other issues, because Sun Chuanting's main force was "accidentally" defeated by Li Laiheng and Li Yan, so Li Zicheng was in a strategically superior position.

The first question is the next strategic goal.Open the envelope again?The second problem is the problem of being king.

Regarding the second question, Li Zicheng could not speak in person, and the usurper had to give way more than three times in a hypocritical manner, and finally sat on the dragon chair "as a last resort".How can I ask myself this question now?However, this problem had to be done. Luo Rucai waited for the old rebels to come to seek refuge. Was he on an equal footing with them, or was it a matter of superior-subordinate relationship?This must be clearly stated.So, this is an imminent event.Originally, the Kaifeng attack failed, and this matter could only be shelved, but now Sun Chuanting suddenly lost hundreds of thousands of main forces, and he was unable to attack the rebels at all. Now is the time to decide this issue.

Li Zicheng had this idea, so naturally someone would figure out what he was thinking.Niu Jinxing is a smart man, and he started talking.

"Chuang Wang, Li Yan and Li Laiheng violated the military order this time, and they should be severely punished. We are no longer in the stance of petty fights, and should be strictly disciplined. However, they did make great contributions to being neutral without knowing it. , and the faults of the two of them will not be mentioned. Do you want to get it?" Niu Jinxing said.

When this matter was mentioned again, everyone was puzzled.

Li Yan thought, um, Niu Juren, Niu Juren, I don't know about your flamboyant guts, you are going to propose to become the king, right?Okay, you first erase all my credit, so that you can be your founding prime minister.Then I'll give you a few words in return.

Li Yan said: "King Chuang, just now everyone said that General Li Laiheng and I violated military discipline, and Li was a little confused. The last general was ordered to guard Dengfeng and defeat the incoming enemy. What military discipline can be violated? The last general really doesn't care. I understand. If I say I am guilty, is it because I have to ask for instructions before I can win a battle? It is true that the enemy attacked the city and the enemy was outnumbered, but I did not go out of the city to meet the enemy without authorization, but defended the city. Am I wrong? ? General Li Laiheng was there to train troops, and there were actual battles. Isn’t it a good thing for him to participate in fighting against the enemy? Therefore, it is really incomprehensible to say that the two of us disobeyed the military order. King Chuang, what do you think is my mistake?"

Li Zicheng was speechless.

What Li Yan said was correct.

Liu Zongmin stared, he didn't think so. "You are taking risks! Taking risks with King Chuang's elite troops! That's why it violates military orders."

This also makes sense.Important matters in the military should be reported to the superiors.

Niu Jinxing hurriedly smoothed things over: "This matter is over, no further discussion, no further discussion. I have an extremely important proposal to make, how about you all seriously consider it?"

Hearing his serious words, everyone held their breath and listened quietly to what he said.

Li Zicheng's heart was beating wildly, full of surprises and expectations, and of course worries.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time. King Chuang, according to the fate, should rule the world. This is a matter of no doubt. Now King Chuang has a strong army, people's hearts, and everyone's expectations. Even Luo Rucai and other rebel soldiers from the [-]th Battalion have come. So, I suggest that King Chuang can become king!"

As soon as Niu Jinxing said this, the crowd became enthusiastic and echoed like thunder.

After a long time of commotion, Li Zicheng was so happy that he only knew hehehehe, but he didn't know what to say.Liu Zongmin said loudly, yes, it should have been like this a long time ago.Li Guo, Gao Yigong, Yuan Zongdi, Liu Fangliang and others all cheered in unison, saying that we have been waiting for this day for a long time.Li Shuangxi and Zhang Nai were even more excited.

Claiming to be king is the first step, and the next step is to become emperor.

Proclaiming the king is very important, that is to swear an oath to the people of the whole country, and the emperor of the new dynasty has come out and asked the people to submit.Especially for those groups that have armies, it is time for them to surrender.

After a while of uproar, Niu Jinxing continued: "King Chuang is called 'Fengtian Changyi King of Wende and Martial Arts'. Everyone, how about it?"

Niu Jinxing stroked his beard and waited for approval with a smile.

"Okay!" There was another round of applause.

"If you want me to say it, I'll call it 'Fengtian Changyi Wende Wugong Emperor.' What kind of king is not king." Liu Zongmin said loudly.

Li Laiheng smiled wryly in his heart, he thought, in this way, Luo Rucai's life would not last long, would he be willing to be King Chuang's subordinate?It's too early to be king now.

Li Yan also thought this way, now is not the time to be king.

However, the group of generals who participated in the uprising earlier were elated, and their thinking was very clear, that is, they hoped that Li Zicheng would become the emperor as soon as possible.

This mood is understandable.

Li Zicheng found that the three people did not agree, including Song Xiance who presented Li Zicheng with a picture of his back.

Li Zicheng asked, "Military Master, how long can you say that the court can last?" He didn't ask him whether he agreed to become king, because Li Zicheng didn't want to hear objections at this time.

Song Xiance is one of the opponents.He has the same opinion as Li Yan and Li Laiheng, Li Zicheng should "slowly become king"!
"Look at God's will!" Song Xiance was very tricky.

"Okay, okay." Everyone agreed.We all know that providence is and is important.

"Divination or splitting characters?" Song Xiance asked.

Li Zicheng said casually: "Let's take apart the characters, it's easy to take apart the characters. For '有', let's break down the characters for '有'."

Song Xian thought about strategy for a while, his face suddenly became serious, and said: "Yes, one drop of 'Da' and one day less of 'Ming' means that Ming will surely perish. All are dead, the character 'big' still has a horizontal stroke, and the character 'ming' still has a character 'month', so half of the country can persist for a while. We can't be impatient, there are people in the world, but we have to take it step by step. "

"What does the military division mean?" Li Zicheng asked.

Song Xiance pretended to pinch his fingers again, thought for a moment, and said, "Forgive me, I, Song, watch the sky at night, and I can't immediately become the king if I am a king. However, I can't do without a name. I don't have a name." You can’t command the world. I think it’s more appropriate to be called ‘Fengtian Changyi Civil and Military Marshal’ for the time being. In this way, we can give Luo Rucai the title of ‘General’, and he will be willing. From now on, Our affairs are easier to deal with.”

Makes sense!In particular, the word Kaizi is very clear, telling everyone clearly that the Ming Dynasty will fall, but it will not die immediately.Therefore, everyone was silent.Although I think what Song Xiance said is good, but I feel that the name is a little too small.

"General Li Yan, and Lai Heng, you haven't spoken all this time, let me tell you what you mean, it doesn't matter if you are wrong." Li Zicheng said.

How can it be okay to be wrong?Li Yan thought.Your group of eager generals are eagerly waiting for you to become the emperor, they are the princes of one party, whoever opposes, who will not be hated by you and everyone?However, since Li Zicheng asked a question, let's speak bluntly.

"King Chuang, you must be called the king, and you will be called the emperor in the future. However, since the military division has already seen God's will, for the sake of a long-term foundation, we are not in a hurry. I agree with Song Junshi's suggestion. Marshal' go."

Li Zicheng said "hmm", obviously not very happy.

Li Laiheng said: "King Chuang, let me say a few words. It doesn't matter if you become emperor, let alone become king. However, we have to consider a few issues. First, Emperor Chongzhen will not agree. He will fight desperately. Then we We must fight hard and bear all the military pressure; second, Zhang Xianzhong will not agree, he will unite more people to fight us, maybe he will surrender to the court and help Chongzhen fight us; third, there are still a group of people who will not agree , They are Manchurians. Manchurians want to rule the world, and if we become kings, can they still sit still? In this way, several groups of them will not agree, and they will all come to beat us. We will definitely not be able to bear it. What I am most worried about is, Maybe, if the Ming Dynasty negotiated peace with the Manchurians and signed some kind of treaty, they would unite to attack us, and we would definitely not be able to bear it. So, what I mean is that there is no need to seal any titles. When the world is conquered, the emperor Naturally, you are the king."

Makes sense.

But it seems unreasonable.

Li Zicheng looked at Li Laiheng, Li Yan and Song Xiance, feeling a little uncomfortable.However, what they said was reasonable, and Li Zicheng was a reasonable person.If he is an unreasonable person, then it is impossible for him to have so many people follow him wholeheartedly.

"Okay, this matter is postponed. Let's discuss the next strategy." Li Zicheng changed the subject.

Liu Zongmin felt uncomfortable. He vaguely felt that Li Yan was trying to recruit a gang. He got involved with Li Laiheng and Song Xiance, so that's okay?
"King Chuang, I don't think there is any need to hesitate any more about being king, it's better to decide." His words were harsh, and his tone was particularly firm.

This is not surprising at all. Most people today have this kind of attitude, hoping to become the king. However, his tone seems to be that whoever opposes is the enemy, and the smell of gunpowder is very strong.

Everyone looked at Li Zicheng.

Niu Jinxing said: "King Chuang, let's call it 'Generalissimo', so that we can command the world."

"Okay, let's call him Grand Marshal!" Li Zicheng pondered for a while, and finally ended with a compromise.
