Chapter 28 The decision to regret
Li Zicheng smiled and waved his hand and said, "Children are ignorant, don't take it to heart. I'll settle in Shangluo Mountain, but I suggest you wait until you harvest the wheat before pulling the flag, so that you can solve some food and grass problems."
"Well, this time is good." Zhang Xianzhong nodded, toasted Li Zicheng, and said, "Come on, let's have a drink."
The two raised their heads and finished drinking the wine in the wine glass. Zhang Nai also took the bowl and took a big sip with them. He put down the wine bowl, wiped the traces of the corner of his mouth, and said with his tongue: "Zhang, King Zhang, why not give us some supplies."
Li Zicheng frowned and scolded, "If you eat enough, go there! If you drink a little wine, talk nonsense! You will be fined twenty military sticks! After you go back, you will find Yigong to take it yourself!"
Zhang Nai's mouth twitched, he stood up with his head down, and obediently went to the chair beside the lobby to sit down, and drank tea and relieve wine.
Li Zicheng bowed to Zhang Xianzhong and said, "Jingxuan, forgive me, the little bastard drinks something, it's just like this, it's hard to speak."
Zhang Xianzhong looked at Li Zicheng with a funny look and said, "Zicheng, tell me, what do you want? Is it military armor? Or food?"
Li Zicheng didn't care whether Zhang Xianzhong was polite or sincere, and went straight to the trap. He smiled and said, "Since Jingxuan, you want to help us, then give me five hundred stones of food. If your horse is rich, give me another two hundred war horses, five hundred crossbows, and ten thousand arrows."
Zhang Xianzhong stopped while stroking his beard, grabbed his beard for a while, and then laughed, "I'm not my old Zhang's stingyness, but my old Zhang has more than 20,000 people waiting to feed him. Look at this, I'll give you fifty mules and horses, and you can choose the things you want, okay?"
Li Zicheng smiled and nodded, bowed to Zhang Xianzhong, and said, "This is already a lot. We will accept your love here."
Zhang Xianzhong laughed and said, this matter was decided.
Li Zicheng patted his belly and smiled and said, "Look, I've eaten this food and said everything I need to talk about. I'll say goodbye now."
"Why are you in a hurry?" Zhang Xianzhong insisted: "I left when I first came. This is too unreasonable. If you stay here for a few days, I will entertain you well. Look at you as thin as you are. When you go out, you will see that you are fleeing the famine. Where can you have the body of a general?"
"Oh, there is still something to do at home," Li Zicheng said helplessly: "Guiying and the family members of the old camp have also been disbanded. There is no news yet. I have to go back earlier and send someone to inquire about their news and handle other matters in the camp. It is impossible to delay."
Zhang Xianzhong asked in surprise: "My sister-in-law was also broken up? Then you have to look for it quickly, it can't be cheaper for the government army. Don't worry, I will be aware of it, and I will notify you if there is any news."
"That's thank you." Li Zicheng said gratefully.
Li Zicheng insisted on leaving, but in the end, Zhang Xianzhong no longer tried to keep him and asked Li Zicheng to have tea here first. He sent someone to prepare things at the old camp outside the city. Li Zicheng didn't ask for any weapons and armor, so he asked for food. As long as there was food, he could gather the team. When they broke out of Shangluo Mountain, what weapons and horses could not be grabbed? He knew very well.
When they first arrived in Shenshi, Li Zicheng and Zhang Nai had already received the things given by Zhang Xianzhong. They contacted Li Guo and others who were hiding nearby, and quickly left with the things.
On the way out, Li Guo said happily: "Xiao Naizi, you are smart enough. You knocked so many things from the hands of the Eight Kings at once, enough for us to hold on for two months."
Zhang Nai shouted unhappily: "Don't scream! It's so unpleasant!"
"You are just 'little tits', hahaha!" The others in the team began to joking loudly.
After everyone laughed and made a fuss, the team returned to quiet again, with only the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground.
Li Guo suddenly asked, "Uncle, are we going to Cao Cao's place with so many things?"
Li Zicheng shook the whip and smiled and said, "I won't go! Luo Rucai is very cunning. Maybe we can exchange it for rewards. Huang Hu will contact him. As long as Huang Hu raises the anti-flag, Cao Cao will follow him, so don't worry about him."
Instead of following the path they came, they took a big circle and walked the small path in the mountains. If they walked the road, they would have brought so many mules, horses and food, and perhaps they would have been robbed by officers and soldiers if they could not walk twenty miles.
Zhang Xianzhong did not go to see Li Zicheng off, but stayed in the city. As soon as Li Zicheng left, Xu Yixian rushed over. After seeing Zhang Xianzhong, he immediately asked Zhang Xianzhong: "Master General, did Li Zicheng come just now?"
"The Grand Marshal let him go?" Xu Yixian asked again.
Zhang Xianzhong replied impatiently: "If you let go, we will not only let him go, but also give him fifty stones of food."
"Master, it's time to send someone to chase you now." Xu Yixian suggested excitedly: "Kill Li Chuang to eliminate any future troubles in the future!"
Zhang Xianzhong ignored it and sat on the chair and drank tea slowly.
Xu Yixian saw that Zhang Xianzhong was not moving, so he shouted to the outsiders: "Come here! I will send the commander's military order and send a cavalry to catch up with Li Chuang and kill him without mercy!"
The personal soldiers outside came in and looked at Zhang Xianzhong sitting high without any intention of agreeing, so they did not accept the order.
Xu Yixian was very anxious, and he advised: "Master! The opportunity must not be missed! Now is the best time to kill Li Chuang, otherwise there will be endless troubles in the future!"
"Future troubles?" Zhang Xianzhong snorted coldly and said, "That's also the future! It's useful for me to keep him now. First, take care of the present, and then take care of the future. Also, I'm not dead yet, so there is no need for others to issue military orders!"
"Master, please calm down. Xian is also considering the great cause of the general. He did not investigate for a while. He sent an order on behalf of the general. Please forgive the general." Xu Yixian quickly bowed to the end and apologized.
Zhang Xianzhongxu helped him and said, "There is no need for military advisors to do this. If someone dared to sincerely pass on our Lao Zhang's military order, he would have moved long ago!"
"But Grandmaster, Li Chuang should get rid of it as soon as possible!" Xu Yixian continued to persuade.
Zhang Xianzhong waved his hand and said with a final say: "This matter ends here! Our Lao Zhang is still waiting for him, Li Chuang to attract the attention of the official army. As for the future, we will fight again. Now the biggest enemy is the court, and other things that fight the world and seize the country. Let's talk about it later! We can't get on the kang across the threshold!"
