Aspiration

Chapter 59
It was agreed to visit Zhang Xianzhong Dazhai tomorrow, which is not as simple as visiting relatives.

Li Zicheng knew that it would be impossible not to visit.Zhang Xianzhong condescended to visit Li Zicheng first. As the weaker Li Zicheng, he naturally had no reason not to pay his respects to Zhang Xianzhong.

This is a problem.

There is no danger for Zhang Xianzhong to visit Li Zicheng, but the risk factor for Li Zicheng to visit Zhang Xianzhong is frighteningly high.To return or not to return?This really became a problem.How do you explain it without a return visit?For one reason, courtesy is reciprocal, Li Zicheng had to visit Zhang Xianzhong.As for the risk factor, I know it in my heart, but I can't make it clear in my mouth.If you don't go, it's obvious distrust.

It is also difficult to go, and it is also difficult not to go.

Li Zicheng decided, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he has to go to the mountains of tigers.Wasn't he preparing to join forces with Zhang Xianzhong when he broke out from Shangluo Mountain?Now that we have arrived at the door of someone's house, how can we suddenly turn around at the door of someone's house and not go in?
Liu Zongmin has a straight temper, so he doesn't agree to Chuang Wang.He said that it is enough for him to bring a few people back to worship, and he can find any excuse. For example, he suffered from a bad meal today and had diarrhea, or he could not come due to the cold at night, so he will come to visit him another day. Oh, how can there be so many people? nonsense?It is said that the military affairs are busy, and it is really hard to walk.Who doesn't know this thing in the heart, there is no need to say it clearly, it is not good, and it will hurt face.He, Zhang Xianzhong, is a smart man. If he intends to harm you, we will do it right if we don’t go. Who would die? If he had no intention of harming you, he wouldn’t turn his face because of this, right?Besides, the days to come are still long, and there are plenty of opportunities to make an apology.

What he said was not unreasonable. Many generals echoed him. The chief sentry was right, King Chuang could not go.

King Chuang was pondering.

Zhang Xianzhong's camp.

Xu Yixian and Zhang Kewang sat on the left and right sides in front of Zhang Xianzhong, with a plate of meat in front of each of them. They sat on the floor, holding bone-cutting knives, cutting and eating the meat.

Tomorrow, they will greet Li Zicheng and his party of dozens of people.

"Marshal, let's break it up. Now, Li Zicheng has thrown himself into a trap. If we don't get rid of him now, there will be no chance in the future." Xu Yixian urged Zhang Xianzhong again.

Zhang Xianzhong didn't make a sound, but looked at Zhang Kewang.

"Not only Li Zicheng must be eliminated, but Li Laiheng must also be eliminated," Zhang Kewang said.

"Huh?" Zhang Xianzhong obviously disagreed with this suggestion, which was his way of denying his subordinates' opinions.

"No, Marshal. Li Laiheng is a talent. Yes, he can be used by us. Of course, it is something we wish for, but according to my observation, this person is rebellious and not tamed. He has his own opinions too much, no If you kill him, you will be killed by him." Zhang Kewang didn't need to be restrained in front of his adoptive father, and he spoke directly.

"Isn't it because you think he is an opponent and want to get rid of him?" Zhang Xianzhong was also very rude, without hiding it.

"No, I wish I could fight him to the death."

Zhang Xianzhong felt that Zhang Kewang's words were true, so he smiled and said, "I feel sorry for anyone who died."

"Marshal, can we just make a decision like this?" Xu Yixian couldn't wait.

"Don't worry, think again."

Li Laiheng checked the route for tomorrow.My heart is heavy.

Forty miles, eighty miles back and forth, a small team of people, is tantamount to walking through the gates of hell.

Three endings.

One, come and go safely, unite against the enemy.

The second is to get out of danger safely and go far away.

The third one should not be mentioned, and it will be a full stop here, who can have the opportunity to cross, only the ghost knows.

"Old Jiu, I'm afraid we won't be able to get the information tonight. Then we have to take a risk tomorrow." Li Laiheng and Lao Jiu were analyzing several possibilities for tomorrow.They were waiting for information from Zhang Xianzhong's camp.If Zhang Xianzhong and the others had the intention to kill Li Zicheng, they should be prepared tonight.When there is preparation, there will be movement.

"Has King Chuang decided?" Lao Jiu asked.

"Haven't made up my mind. He'll go, though."

"I was worried during the day today. This Zhang Wenxiu is not a simple person. You are also worried that the information will not be delivered, and I share the same feeling. However, I am more worried that it is not that the information cannot be delivered, but that there is no information to send at all. "

No information to send?There are only two possibilities: one is that Zhang Xianzhong is not prepared to take any action against Li Zicheng at all, and his subordinates have no such intentions. The camp is calm, as if there is no such thing as receiving Li Zicheng tomorrow.The second is that Zhang Xianzhong did it very confidentially, and there was no way to find out the news.Lao Jiu was talking about the second situation.

Ok.Zhang Wenxiu, Zhang Wenxiu, I didn't expect that I would meet a lot of talents when I traveled here.Li Laiheng said in his heart.He thought, Zhang Wenxiu, as a genius-level espionage talent, couldn't possibly not have a super intelligence network. It is very likely that his espionage team formed an army earlier than Li Laiheng.Of course, their anti-detection capabilities will be very good, so that Li Zicheng's spy system will not get any information at all.This is the scary thing about Zhang Wenxiu.

Li Laiheng thought again, this time the imperial court decided to use heavy troops to wipe out Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Wenxiu should have spied on the news long ago, but Zhang Xianzhong kept pretending not to know.Lao Jiu's intelligence network has never found out who the real head of Zhang Xianzhong's intelligence agency is. All this shows that Zhang Wenxiu is terrible.

Knowing Zhang Wenxiu's identity today is considered an unexpected gain. Li Laiheng is not rejoicing, but feels scared.

Tomorrow is too dangerous.

King Chuang should be prevented from going to Zhang Xianzhong's camp.

Li Laiheng came to King Chuang's tent, saw Liu Zongmin and others were there, and thought, just in time, everyone is there, so he can persuade King Chuang.

Seeing Li Laiheng coming in, Li Zicheng asked first, "Is there any special news?" He emphasized "special" twice.Li Laiheng said, no.Li Zicheng laughed and said, "That's the decision."

Li Laiheng's heart sank.It seems that there was a big debate here just now, and King Chuang's words are the final summary of this debate.

Liu Zongmin glanced at Li Laiheng bitterly.I thought, if anything happens to King Chuang, I will be the first to spare you.Tian Jianxiu, Li Guo, and Gao Yigong all had a bitter expression on their faces. They were also the ones who opposed the king's entry into Zhang Xianzhong's camp.

Now, only Li Zicheng insisted on visiting Zhang Xianzhong.

"King Chuang, have you decided?" Li Laiheng asked.

"Isn't this very simple? What is the purpose of coming here from thousands of miles? No matter what the result is, it would be a pity to give up without knowing it."

Li Zicheng's attitude is very clear. All key issues should not be purely based on speculation, but must be based on facts.Now, the best strategy is Li and Zhang's alliance. There is no reason or basis for giving up this strategy easily.Besides, what he didn't say clearly was that he believed in Li Laiheng's intelligence system, and his intelligence system didn't report any changes in Zhang Xianzhong's side, that's why he should go.Capturing and killing Li Zicheng is not something that can be done immediately. It must be prepared, and this kind of preparation should not be a small move. It is impossible for his intelligence personnel to find out.So, that's what he meant when he asked Li Laiheng if he had any "special news".

Li Laiheng did not receive the information that Zhang Xianzhong wanted to assassinate Li Zicheng, which strengthened Li Zicheng's determination to visit Zhang Xianzhong.Now, it is unrealistic to dissuade Li Zicheng, his goal is too clear.

"Chairman, what you said is of course not unreasonable, so let's make two-handed preparations." Li Zicheng began to arrange the specific affairs for tomorrow, and he said, "We can't all go tomorrow, and it will be terrible if we catch everything. Commander-in-chief, you are in charge of the big plan at home. If anything happens to me, you quickly lead the troops out of the danger zone. Zongdi, Li Guo, Fangliang, Jianxiu, and others, don’t go, stick to it In the camp, listen to Master Liu’s orders. Shuangxi, Zhang Nai, and Laiheng, get ready and come with me to see Marshal Zhang. This trip is unpredictable, but if you don’t break into the tiger’s den, you will be unwilling. Okay, There is not much reason to say, get ready and rest early, maybe tomorrow will be very hard."

Everyone has nothing to say, they have already reached this point, so let's take one step at a time.Li Guo and other generals were not arranged to meet Zhang Xianzhong, the obvious intention was to make Zhang Xianzhong scruples.This is not going to war. No matter how many people there are, it is futile.

After everyone left, Li Laiheng was left behind.

"Is there really no abnormal phenomenon over there?" Li Zicheng asked.

"No. However, I discussed it with Lao Jiu, and this calm made us even more worried." Li Laiheng said.

"Ha, what's the point? If they want to kill me and kidnap me, don't they have any scruples about the 1 people on my side? No matter how daring they are, at least their military deployment will have to be prepared. Don’t think too much, many things are just ghosts.”

What exactly is Zhang Xianzhong thinking?
