Chapter 127 Situation 4
Li Zicheng's face turned very ugly. He thought about his recent actions carefully, especially after he became emperor, his relationship with the generals became distant.
Although there is a reason why Niu Jinxing advocated the way of monarch and ministers and intended to distinguish him from the generals. But more importantly, he had already regarded himself as the master of the world in his heart.
The Lord of the World and the Lord of All Saints. He claims to be me, but if he claims to be me, how could he be with his generals as freely as before?
Now even ordinary soldiers can see their distance from their generals. How could they not have other thoughts like Liu Zongmin, Li Yan and others?
Thinking of this, Li Zicheng sighed softly, and his heart became even more depressed. The world was not yet determined, so he took the airs of the emperor himself. And he was like this, how could he ask his generals to get along with ordinary soldiers?
Everyone thinks that the world is settled and it is time to enjoy happiness. How many people have started to buy houses and land in the capital, and how many people have married and taken concubines. In this case, who will still have the intention to fight?
In the previous defeat, Li Zicheng thought that the Qing army suddenly entered the pass and caught the rebel army off guard. But now it seems that all defeats seem to be traceable.
Then can we win the next battle? Li Zicheng muttered to himself.
The soldiers around him didn't know what Li Zicheng was thinking, so the general took the wine bag and drank a sip of wine and said, "The King of Chuang is a person who is the emperor, and it should be different from ordinary soldiers, otherwise who would still fight to become the emperor! You said yes! Brother."
Li Zicheng did not answer, but asked them a question. "You followed the King of Chuang from Luoyang to the capital, in order to seek wealth. But now you have not yet obtained wealth, but you will have to fight the Tartars soon, and you will not be sure whether you will be life or death next. Do you regret it now? Will it be better if you don't follow the King of Chuang's cavalry?"
All the soldiers were silent. After a long time, they heard the young soldier saying in a deep voice: "The only way to regret it is to my grandson! I don't regret it!"
Seeing Li Zicheng looking at him with disbelief, he felt that he had been insulted, and said with a faint angriness on his face: "Don't believe it, that's what I think."
The leader's face changed and he shouted angrily: "Liu Da, you have eaten gunpowder and sprayed feces all over your mouth. Who are you? Apologize to Mr. General."
The young soldier shook his head coldly and looked at Li Zicheng and said, "I'll tell you why? That year, the land in our village was noticed by a servant of the Fuwang family, saying that since then all the fields have been the king fields of the Fuwang family. Of course, the villagers were unwilling to let the Master write a lawsuit and sue the government. But the corrupt officials privately accepted the benefits of the servant, and they did not dare to offend the Fuwang. Not only did they not make decisions for us, but they also said that we falsely accused. They beat several leaders to death in the court, and then put all the remaining people in prison, saying that they wanted to behead him in the autumn."
Zhang Nai asked, "What's going on later!"
"Later..., the King of Chuang came. He killed King Fu, opened the prison and let us go. Not only did he return the original land to us, but he also distributed the King of Chuang's fields to us. Why did so many young and strong people join the army in our village at that time? It was because King of Chuang was saved. And if King of Chuang was defeated, the dog officials would come back to steal our land. I also have my mother, two younger brothers and a younger sister in my family. With the fields that King of Chuang now divided, they could survive even if I died in battle. My life has been sold to King of Chuang, and even if I die, I will not regret it."
The other soldiers shouted loudly, "What Liu Da said is that good men should repay their kindness."
Only the leader looked ugly, quietly pulled his sleeve, and smiled and said to Li Zicheng: "Jiang Ye, Liu Da, is young, angry, don't be as knowledgeable as him."
Liu Da didn't plan to stop, and pointed at Li Zicheng and said, "I don't know who you are. But since you came over, you asked around and asked, saying that the King of Rebellion was not, disrupting the morale of the army. What do you want to do? Brother Tang, it may not be that he was a detailed work sent by the Tartars. We arrested him and sent him directly to it."
Just as they were quarreling, a team of soldiers walked in this direction with torches in hand, leading Li Yan. When he saw Li Zicheng sitting there, he felt relieved, and he was completely unaware of the strange atmosphere at that time. He hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, you have found you."
When the people around him heard this, they were shocked and stunned.
Only the leader reacted first and knelt down in a hurry and said, "Shou Zong Tang Yilong pays homage to the King of Chuang, long live my emperor."
The others also hurriedly knelt down and shouted long live.
Li Zicheng looked at Li Yan and slowly stood up. He waved his hand and ordered everyone to get up, and turned around and left without saying a word.
Li Yan was surprised and looked at Zhang Nai next to him.
Zhang Nai shook his head and said that he didn't know either.
He was speechless all the way, and when he arrived outside the tent, Li Zicheng suddenly remembered something and stopped, turned to Zhang Nai and said, "Nai'er, go find Jiexuan and transfer that team of soldiers into the imperial camp." The imperial camp was based on the soldiers in the Lao Eighth Camp and was personally commanded by Li Zicheng. The soldiers inside were loyal to him.
Zhang Nai responded and turned around and left.
Seeing Li Zicheng's face look ugly, Li Yan hesitated for a moment, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you should rest early, I will say goodbye first."
Li Zicheng waved his hand, "Lin Quan, you should have something to do when you come to find me at this time! Come in and talk about it."
Li Yan frowned and walked into the tent with Li Zicheng.
Li Zicheng ordered his personal guard to get some food and sit opposite Li Yan. Before Li Yan could speak, Li Zicheng told him about what tonight. Finally, he sighed and said to Li Yan: "Lin Quan, after you enter the capital, am I really a little alienated from the generals?"
Li Yan was silent for a while and said, "There is nothing wrong with the ruler and the ministers. Your Majesty is like this. It's just that the situation changes too quickly, and it is not entirely decided by our army."
Li Zicheng curled the corners of his mouth. Li Yan said this to admit the matter. He was silent for a long time, and said with a little hesitation in his tone: "Lin Quan, do you think our army can win this battle?"
Li Yan replied: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much. If our army is in the capital, we have an absolute advantage. Even if we cannot completely destroy the Tartars, it is not difficult to achieve a victory."
Li Zicheng heard what Li Yan said, "What about other areas!"
