"Bang!" Cen Leihan threw another cup, and a guard beside him was so frightened that he repeatedly accused him.
"There's nothing wrong with you. It's just that I'm in a bad mood. Let's go down." Cen Leihan waved his hand.
"Here!" The guard exited the tent and happened to meet Cen Zhaozhen who was about to ask for an audience.
"How is the big leader feeling today?" Cen Zhaozhen asked.
"The big leader has been unstable recently and often gets angry. Please be careful when you go in," the guard said softly.
Cen Zhaozhen smiled and nodded to his guards and walked into Cen Leihan's tent.
"Uncle," Cen Zhaozhen called respectfully.
"Oh, it's Jingxiang. What do you want from your uncle?" Cen Leihan asked kindly.
"Uncle, our army is trapped in Siming and is in a dilemma. Jing Fan is currently attacking Si'en Military and Civilian Mansion. If Chen Bangchuan loses Si'en and the Jing army directly attacks Sicheng from Si'en, we will be in danger. Please uncle.
Hurry back to Shisi City," Cen Zhaozhen advised.
"Jing Xiang, my uncle has been fighting all his life. Don't you know the importance of Si'en? I have sent Cen Jifu with 10,000 horses to rescue Chen Bangchuan. I will return to Sicheng when I capture Siming," Cen Leihan said lightly.<
/p>
"Uncle, veteran general Li Mingzhong is good at defense. We can only waste our time fighting him in Siming. Why don't you lead people to surround him, and send another general to lead 20,000 people to attack Nanning Prefecture. Nanning is a big city, if
If we can overtake Nanning, Guangxi will be shaken," Cen Zhaozhen said excitedly.
"Oh, Jing Xiang wants to take charge of the army and go to Nanning?" Cen Leihan's eyes flashed with cold light.
Cen Zhaozhen was stunned when he saw this: "Uncle, I mean to ask Brother Zhaowu to go to Nanning. He is brave and good at fighting, and he will be able to conquer Nanning."
Cen Leihan regained his smile: "If the troops are divided, we will be weak. Let me think about it again. Jingxiang, please go back first."
Cen Zhaozhen resigned. When he walked out of the tent, cold sweat broke out on his back. Although the tiger was old, he was still a tiger!
Watching his nephew leave, Cen Leihan secretly lamented that he had lost to his eldest brother after all. The eldest brother's two sons, Cen Zhaozhen and Cen Zhaoxi, are both good and bad, and even Cen Zhaozhen's son Cen Jilu is also an outstanding person. His sons: Cen Zhaowu
, Cen Zhaokui, Cen Zhaoxian can only wield swords and guns. He is old, who will take over the Cen family in Sicheng after his death?
??
If the family is big and the business is big, the conflicts between the descendants will be big. The Cen family in Sicheng is not monolithic.
Cen Leihan's power was wrested from his brother Cen Yunhan.
Since childhood, Cen Leihan liked to lead troops in wars and made many military exploits; while his elder brother Cen Yunhan liked Han Chinese music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Cen Leihan looked down on his brother, thinking that he was too weak and unworthy to be the leader of Sicheng. But Cen Yunhan was the legitimate son and elder brother, and Cen Leihan was a concubine, so the position of chieftain of Sicheng naturally belonged to Cen Yunhan.
Later, Yang Yinglong, the chieftain of Bozhou, rebelled, and the Cen clan of Sicheng sent troops to help the Ming Dynasty suppress the rebellion. The Ming Dynasty made his eldest brother Cen Yunhan a deputy general and rewarded eighteen villages in Guizhou, but Cen Leihan was not mentioned at all.
The Ming Dynasty did not know that Cen Yunhan's meritorious service was his, but it was Cen Leihan who fought the battle.
Cen Leihan became increasingly unconvinced, and one day he launched a rebellion at the instigation of his confidant Huang Ma, drove his eldest brother Cen Yunhan out of Sicheng, and became the lord of Sicheng himself.
Cen Leihan proclaimed himself the Lord of Sicheng, but the Ming Dynasty did not agree. Under the pressure of the Ming Dynasty, Cen Leihan finally took his eldest brother back to Sicheng as chieftain, but it was only in name, and the power was still in the hands of the great leader Cen Leihan.
Many years passed and the two brothers were both old.
A year ago, Cen Yunhan completed his last journey in life. Before he died, he held Cen Leihan's hand and said, "Brother, I know you have great ambitions and want to carry forward the Cen family in Sicheng. But remember, the more you
When you are extremely wealthy, you have to walk on thin ice!"
After saying that, Cen Yunhan breathed his last.
After the death of the eldest brother Cen Yunhan, the position of chieftain of Sicheng should have gone to his son Cen Zhaozhen, but Cen Leihan refused to report it to the Ming Dynasty, and no one in Sicheng dared to mention it.
All the old people in Sicheng knew that the big leader Cen Leihan was very kind to the sons of the old chieftain Cen Yunhan. He never got angry with them and let them take care of money and food and other lucrative errands. But one thing was that he did not let them control the army. Cen Leihan was only willing to hand over Sicheng's army to his son and confidants.

At the Si'en Military and Civilian Mansion, Zhu Hengjia convened a civil and military meeting to discuss what to do next.
"My lords, tell me, is it better to attack Sicheng directly or save Siming?"
After capturing the strategic location of Sien, Jing's army could either go south to save Siming, go west to directly attack Sicheng, or go north across Qingyuan Wei's territory to attack the Sicheng native village in Guizhou. It can be said that everything is alive and well.
.
"Jianguo, I thought we could take Sicheng directly and attack the enemy to save it," Zheng Feng said.
"In the supervision of the country, the enemy does not know that we have captured Si'en. Their main force is in Siming, and Sicheng is empty. I also agree to attack Sicheng." Shi Qiwen also agreed to attack Sicheng.
"Mr. Hu, what's your opinion?"
Zhu Hengjia asked Hu Zhigong, Chen Zengyu surrendered Zhu Hengjia, Hu Zhigong naturally surrendered, and Zhu Hengjia asked him to serve as a praise painter in the army.
"I thought that Sizhou was a fortified city. The Cen family had been in Sizhou for hundreds of years. The trees were so big and had deep roots that it was hard to get down. It would be better to pretend to attack Sicheng. Cen Leihan would come from Siming to rescue him. We set up an ambush on the road and surrounded the points for reinforcements."
,Hu Zhigong offered suggestions.
"Mr. Hu's strategy is very good, let's do it like this. Sirs, when you go back, be prepared. Send troops to Sicheng", Zhu Hengjia made the decision.
