Chapter 870: A Collection of Thieves

"Changbai, I firmly believe that Bai Gu is not that kind of person, but why Yuxuan did this, I really can't understand." In the Shangzhou Mansion Office, heavy snow was falling, and Hong Chengchou stood by the window with his hands on his hands.

Open it, there is a cold wind blowing from time to time

Entering the room, he blew the flames on the stove and swayed it from side to side. Hong Chengchou seemed unaware and whispered something. Next to him was a tall young scribe who looked to be only about 27 or 28 years old. He stood behind Hong Chengchou and listened.

Hong Chengchou spoke.

"Superintendent, with all due respect, I am afraid that this is not the matter that needs to be considered at the moment. Once the court receives the battle report, there may be great changes. The Superintendent may not be able to stay in this position anymore." Young

The scribe said.

Hong Chengchou immediately turned around, stared at the young scribe and said, "Changbai, what do you mean by this?" The young scribe bowed and said, "Supervisor, it's not just a low-ranking official judging a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart. What if Chen

Your Excellency has other thoughts, I am afraid that this person who has won the victory

The document has been presented to the Holy Emperor's desk. Sir, please think about it, if this is the case, how should you deal with it?" Hong Chengchou was stunned. This was exactly the situation he least wanted to see. If Chen Qiyu was really excluded or, to be serious, framed.

sun

Chuan Ting's thoughts, then his own attitude is not important. Once the victory document is submitted and the Holy Emperor is happy, it becomes inevitable that Chen Qiyu will take office. If he leads well, he will definitely be transferred. Isn't this what Chen Qiyu wants?

Do you want it?

?After sitting in the position of Governor of the Three Sides, I had misjudged the person after all. I originally thought that Chen Qiyu was a brave, resourceful, and capable man. Unexpectedly, power, or power, would eventually affect him.

Good people.

"Changbai, what do you think we should do next?" Hong Chengchou asked a little unconfidently. In the past, Hong Chengchou was full of confidence in making any decision, but this time he began to doubt his judgment for the first time.

Ability, I have already made a mistake once, and I don’t want to make a mistake a second time. The young scribe said: "I'm afraid

The situation this time is a bit dangerous. Not to mention how many troops Mr. Sun has left. Mr. Chen's document did not mention it in detail. However, the Qin army was newly established and the losses must be considerable. Mr. Sun must also want to follow the commander now.

Let's meet up as soon as possible. But the bandit will never be as easy to deal with as Mr. Chen thinks, and I'm always worried that something will happen."

"Are you saying that the bandits are pretending to surrender?" Hong Chengchou raised his voice. "Although I'm not sure, the supervisor thinks about it. Gao Yingxiang was already the leader of the army. At his peak, he had hundreds of thousands of troops under his command. Such a person

How could you be willing to be inferior to others?

Why should I be a general of the Ming Dynasty? Not to mention what the military and politics of the Ming Dynasty are like. The governor knows better than the subordinate. Once he rebels, I am afraid no one can surrender. Mr. Sun was wronged and the governor was transferred. Who else in Shaanxi can do it?

Stop them?"

"Then I will immediately compile a letter and submit it to the Holy One to explain the situation. The thieves cannot be trusted and caution is the best." Hong Chengchou said. The young scribe shook his head, "Your Majesty, this is the time when Long Yan is very happy.

I’m afraid that the Governor’s tough attitude will not be appreciated by His Majesty, so only Master Chen’s plan of suppression and appeasement is what His Majesty wants.”

Hong Chengchou stared blankly at the young scribe, unable to say a word for a long time. The young scribe was Hong Chengchou's chief staff officer after Sun Chuanting, Qiu Minyang. He was from Weinan, Shaanxi, with a strategist and was especially good at government affairs. After the imperial examination, he took up the post of Shaanxi

The chief envoy, Si Du, was careful and capable, and Yang He

When he was in office, he was promoted to the rank of fifth-rank officer. After getting to know Hong Chengchou, he came into Hong Chengchou's sight and became a member of his staff. Now that Sun Chuanting is out, Qiu Minyang naturally becomes Hong Chengchou's main staff. What's the matter?

Hong Chengchou was also willing to discuss important matters with Qiu Minyang.

It was the twelfth lunar month, and the New Year was about to come. The documents from the imperial court arrived as promised. Just as Qiu Minyang expected, the imperial court actually transferred Hong Chengchou from the northwest to the northeast. Chongzhen approved Zhang Fengyi's resignation and transferred Fu Zonglong to the position of Minister of War. Chen Qiyu was promoted

As the governor of the three sides, Chen Qiyu waited until Chen Qiyu had arranged for the bandits to be collected before entering Xi'an Mansion to receive the official seal. The imperial edict did not mention

In the case of Sun Chuanting, Sun Chuanting was obviously let off. After all, he might have to take care of Hong Chengchou's face. Moreover, Sun Chuanting's subordinates were all new soldiers, so the defeat was understandable. The fact that the governor of Shaanxi was not removed from his post made Chen Qiyu half-missed.

, but he suddenly became the highest military and political officer in the northwest, and it was expected that Sun Chuanting would not be able to make any trouble.

Sun Chuanting finally got in touch with Hong Chengchou. Hong Chengchou already understood what happened, but now that it was over, Hong Chengchou couldn't say anything, so he had to write a letter and send it to the messenger to express his views. Although Chen Qiyu had selfish motives, but on the surface

There is no evidence that Hong Chengchou did not participate in the frontline operations, and his one-sided words alone are not enough.

Overturning Chen Qiyu's conclusion, and Chen Qiyu has conquered the Chuang Army, no matter what changes may happen to Gao Yingxiang later, at least there is no problem on the surface now. The Holy Spirit also highly approves of Chen Qiyu's approach, and he cannot raise objections at this time. The only option is

He told Sun Chunchuan to hold back for a while and wait until the opportunity was right before Hong Chengchou would make further suggestions to the emperor.

The situation in the northwest seems to be improving overall, but Gao Yingxiang is not prepared to give Chen Qiyu this opportunity. The journey to Shanyang County was originally expected to take ten days, but due to the procrastination of the Chuang Army, it took almost two days.

In ten days, although Chen Qiyu was very dissatisfied, he now had to focus on the overall situation and submitted the victory document in advance.

As for the retreat, in fact, although Gao Yingxiang handed over all his belongings, he did not hand over the food and weapons. This was the biggest instability factor. Although he had formed a formation to double-team the intruders during the march, he was confident that the intruders would counterattack.

They can be annihilated when there is water, but if they really take action, their victory documents will be in vain. The Holy Spirit will also be very angry.

This is Chen Qiyu's current tangled psychology. Before Gao Yingxiang surrendered, Chen Qiyu didn't have so many ideas. But after he surrendered, the relationship between active and passive seemed to be reversed. Sometimes Chen Qiyu thought in his heart, if it weren't for the sake of keeping the Holy Lord,

In order to cater to the Holy Emperor's ideas, he had already ordered the burning of the Carriage Gorge. How could he give Gao Yingxiang and others a chance to survive? But now, he was restrained by the bandits.

"Uncle, Shanyang County is ahead of us. Our troops are divided into two groups. I will find an opportunity to sneak out at night and contact Shanyang County. The last time I passed by, our rebel army opened a warehouse to release grain. The people of Shanyang County were very hostile to us.

The impression is very good. Many people want to sign up to join the army. I can contact many of them. I will go there first at night and tomorrow

Give Chen Qiyu a surprise." Li Zicheng was confident and had already thought up a plan. Gao Yingxiang was more and more impressed by his nephew, who was young, bold and a good player. "Go, everything is up to you. My uncle will be here with all the brothers.

Let’s make a deal, tomorrow at the foot of Shanyang County will be a good opportunity for us to take action!”

At night, in front of an abandoned temple in Shanyang County, a figure flashed past, climbed up the wall and entered the temple. Who else could this person be if it weren't Li Zicheng? He wore night clothes and fought in the north and south.

Li Zicheng was already a general with strong martial arts and agility.

Under the cover of night and night clothes, he broke away from the team and walked through the small road to Shanyang County. During this period, he was lucky enough not to be discovered by the Ming army patrolling at night. This cannot be blamed on Chen Qiyu. Chen Qiyu paid attention to trapping the thieves.

In the middle, Gao Yingxiang’s left and right wings and the bottom of the team

There were Ming troops watching at the rear, but the Ming troops exploring the road had an indifferent attitude. The farther towards Xi'an Prefecture, the safer it would be. This was everyone's fixed thinking, so the Ming troops in the van only focused on looking ahead. Who would have thought of Li Zicheng?

Will sneak to Shanyang County from behind, Shanyang County

The city defense is sparse, and it has not recovered after being defeated by Li Zicheng and Wang Zuogao. There are only a few hundred households stationed in the county, and dozens of soldiers guard the county town. There are not even 20 people on one wall. Li Zicheng

Trying to climb up and enter the city is like searching for something.

"Who is it?" An angry shout came from the temple, and then noisy footsteps sounded. It seemed that many people were coming. A torch was lit, highlighting Li Zicheng in night clothes. The one holding the torch was an unkempt man.

The beggar, it was his warning that made the beggars in the ruined temple wake up from their sleep and gather around him.

I saw a man dressed in black standing in the courtyard. He didn't look like a good person. Although the beggars were half-clothed, their years of begging had turned them into a somewhat organized collective. They were called a beggar gang.

Not an exaggeration. They surrounded Li Zicheng with sticks and stones. However, Li Zicheng was not afraid at all and took off the scarf on his head.

"Is it you?"

"Yes, it's me. It seems you still recognize me."

"Why are you here?"

"Haha, it's a long story. Anyway, today I'm here to ask brothers to help me with a big thing. Since brothers still remember the goodness of the rebels, look at you like this. After the rebels left, you haven't had enough to eat for a long time.

Now, 30,000 rebels are just outside the city. If we can cooperate with the inside and outside to capture the city, I recommend that all the martyrs will definitely join the rebels. No, they will become soldiers in the main barracks of the rebel army. You can do it twice a day."

"Do you mean what you say?" "Haha, I, Li Zicheng, always tell the truth."

"I'll do it with you, brothers, what about you?" "We'll do it, let's do it! There's a scar as big as a bowl on my head!" "I've had enough of it, so I'll do it!" "It's better than being hungry!"
