Chapter 159 The hero is immortal!
After Liu Zongmin returned to the camp, the first thing he did was to kill all the women in the camp!
He did not want to and did not dare to kill these old brothers who had been with him for many years. He could only kill women to cut off more people's escape options.
"When a man dies, he dies. It is a shame to be killed by someone who chooses the fat and the thin. Even if he survives, he can only do hard work in this life. It is better to die than live like this."
Seeing that all the women were dead, Liu Zongmin summoned the entire army to encourage them.
However, his encouragement obviously had no effect. Most of the subordinates who have survived to this day are bandits with many years of experience. How could they be coaxed into forgetting about the east, west and north by just a few words? In the end, Give him your life.
Liu Zongmin also knows that it is extremely difficult to improve morale now, so he does not expect any change in morale, as long as everyone is together.
What everyone did in the capital was so excessive that no one had any chance to look back.
At night, he changed a place to sleep. When he got up in the morning, the bed where he usually slept was covered with feathers and arrows.
In other words, last night, the brothers who were responsible for guarding him failed to do their duty at all, leading to a sneak attack on him by some people with ulterior motives.
This is very troublesome.
A general cannot live a life like this, guarding his subordinates against sneak attacks all day long.
Ordering the guards to investigate would probably yield no results, so Liu Zongmin never left his body in armor.
Niu Jinxing beat the palace door in despair.
I don’t know how long he beat him, but the palace door was covered with blood.
This door is not big, but there are many doornails on the door. The number of doornails is the same as that on the gate of the Imperial Palace in Beijing. They are all nine horizontally and nine vertically, a total of eighty-one doornails.
Ever since Li Hongji moved into this simple version of the palace, he rarely appeared in public. No matter what happened, Li Hongji liked to huddle in this palace and watch the show, no longer paying attention to what was going on outside. matter.
Even Empress Gao of his Dashun Empire moved out of the palace and lived in the old camp with her adopted son Li Shuangxi.
In one year, all the powerful generals and generals in the army also established their own businesses.
It was at this critical moment that the desperate Prime Minister Niu Jinxing took the risk of being killed and went to Yushan to meet Yun Zhao, hoping to betray those arrogant and powerful generals who were no longer obedient. Come and give these critically endangered civil servants a way out.
Unfortunately, Yun Zhao did not accept his surrender. No matter how beneficial the conditions he proposed were to Lan Tian, Yun Zhao did not agree to his conditions, and even had someone block him before he could speak. mouth.
Lest the momentary anger cannot be contained and kill this person.
After Niu Jinxing came back alive from Yushan, he was even more disliked by the generals.
He doesn’t want to die!
In view of this situation, he could only turn to Li Hongji for help.
The door of Li Hongji's palace was closed, but from time to time the sound of gongs and drums could be heard inside, as well as the singing of actors and actresses.
Niu Jinxing beat the palace door with less and less force, and finally sat down with her back against the palace door. When she turned around, she saw the bloody setting sun.
A small door next to it opened, and Song Xiance walked out. Seeing Niu Jinxing sitting with his back against the palace door, he said to Niu Jinxing: "Your Majesty will not see you, it's me." After admonishing for a long time, His Majesty did not blame you for going to Lantian privately."
Niu Jinxing seemed to have spent all his energy on beating the palace door, and said feebly: "We are going to be finished. There is no point in fighting for favor at this time."
Song Xiance said: "When Your Majesty cheers up, we still have an army of one million, and we can go anywhere."
Niu Jinxing. He sneered and said: "The people of the Central Plains regard us as savage beasts, strong men like Yun Zhao regard us as nothing more than a chicken and a dog, and the Jiannu regard us as a human shield that can withstand bullets. Looking at the world, we are all enemies. What do you think?" Where can we go?"
Song Xiance laughed and said: "When you, Niu Jinxing, were not involved in the king's family, you were just Mr. Dong Heng who had a farm in Beibei and usually set up a school to teach students. Now you are here. I am a great minister, Zuo Fu of the Dashun regime and a great scholar of Tianyou Pavilion.
When I was in the capital, the number of Confucian scholars who fell under the sect of Niu Jinxing was as great as the crucian carp crossing the river. With such a great reputation and prestige, I thought you would be satisfied a long time ago. Unexpectedly, at this moment, you are still trying to survive. You are so greedy."
Niu Jinxing looked at Song Xiance. Said: "In the past, you were just a fortune teller who ran around the streets asking for a mouthful of soup and rice. After you climbed up to the king of Chuang, you were able to ascend to heaven. It has only been a few good days. Are you already satisfied?"
Song Xiance nodded and said: "Every benefit that a certain family enjoys today is actually consuming Song's destiny. Song Xiance knows this very well. However, after leaving King Chuang, you turned Song Xiance into a running around again. Divination, a certain family would rather die."
Niu Jinxing nodded and said, "It seems that your Majesty thinks so too, right?"
Song Xiance looked up at the setting sun. He smiled and said: "There is no one in this team who has not enjoyed the benefits. They are all desperate. Once you have enjoyed it, don't complain."
Niu Jinxing stood up with all his strength. , took Song Xiance's hand and said: "It's the last moment, shouldn't we struggle?"
Song Xiance sneered: "How do you know that King Chuang didn't struggle?"
p>
Niu Jinxing widened his eyes and said: "Now, King Chuang's subordinates have established their own business."
Song Xiance laughed and said: "It's good to establish one's own business. Whoever sets up his own business will have to do it." Take responsibility for your subordinates."
Niu Jinxing looked at Song Xiance in confusion and said, "I don't understand!"
Song Xiance pointed.The little door said: "Come in with me."
Niu Jinxing followed Song Xiance into the palace gate. Just taking a look at the guards in the palace, Niu Jinxing's eyes narrowed. He found that the palace The guards inside and the guards outside the palace are two completely different people.
One is a negative dog, and the other is a hungry wolf...
On the high stage, actors with heavy makeup are still singing the lamentations of talented men and beautiful women. Below, Li Hongji, who was naked to the waist, was wielding a long knife under the setting sun. Every blow was fierce, and he moved forward bravely with every blow...
The beauty in the opera is dead, and the painted-faced overlord has his heart broken and roars repeatedly. As a result, Li Hongji's long sword made a faint sound of wind and thunder. When the actor's long sword fell, Li Hongji's long sword also cut off the calf-thick horse stake and returned the sword to its sheath.
When Niu Jinxing saw this scene, she couldn't help but burst into tears. She fell at Li Hongji's feet and choked with tears.
Li Hongji laughed loudly and said: "Why, Yun Zhao refuses to kill you?"
Niu Jinxing nodded and said: "He sent me back to be killed by King Chuang!"
p>
Li Hongji stroked Niu Jinxing's head and said: "If I don't kill you, you are still a poor person. If the lonely king doesn't take you in, you have nowhere to go."
Niu Jinxing looked up The majestic Li Hongji said: "You have to have a destiny to conquer the king, and Niu Jinxing will definitely sacrifice his life to fulfill it."
Li Hongji took Song Xiance's coat and put it on him, came to a table and chairs, and drank He took a sip of tea and said to Niu Jinxing: "When we were in the capital, when my old battalion soldiers also started to plunder, the lonely king knew that something big was over!"
Niu Jinxing said in surprise! : "Why didn't Your Majesty practice military law at that time?"
Li Hongji said with a smile: "Liu Zongmin was so arrogant that he could say in front of me - the throne belongs to the lonely king, and the power of torture belongs to him. At that time, All of your eyes are red, and even you, Niu Jinxing, are recruiting disciples all day long. You say, if the lonely king practices military law, who should he kill?"
Niu Jinxing is ashamed and shameless. Kowtowed again and said: "Niu Jinxing deserves to die."
Li Hongji waved his hand and said magnanimously: "Actually, it doesn't matter. Even if we did nothing wrong in the capital, the world still belongs to him, Yun Zhao, and us. It doesn’t matter, we have to leave sooner or later. If that’s the case, why don’t we leave with enough loot?
If we come here again without committing any crime in the capital, do you think we still have a chance to survive?”
Niu Jinxing kowtowed again: "May I ask Your Majesty, where will we go from here?"
Li Hongji sneered: "First of all, we must break away from Yun Zhao and become his neighbor. It won't end well. They all started out as bandits. King Gu knows very well what he thinks.
Yun Zhao is determined to win the slave. As for us, we are just nothing in Yun Zhao's eyes. It's just a drowned dog. He will hit us if we can. If we run away, he will let us go."
Niu Jinxing took a breath and said: "Let's go to the north.square? "
Li Hongji nodded towards Song Xiance, and Song Xiance took out a huge map from his arms and spread it in front of Niu Jinxing, pointing to the large empty place in the north and said: "Go North Sea. "
Niu Jinxing looked at Li Hongji in horror and said: "Your Majesty, that is a barbaric land! "
Li Hongji smiled and said to Niu Jinxing: "Do you think Yun Zhao will allow us to take it away? "
Niu Jinxing hurriedly said: "Wei Chen heard that there are Rakshasa people in the far north.
Li Hongji laughed and said: "It's a good thing to have people. If there is no one, who should we rob?" "
Niu Jinxing looked at Li Hongji and said desperately: "How can millions of us move north?
Song Xiance said in a conspiratorial manner: "It's just about eliminating the weak and keeping the strong. Brother Niu, from today on you'd better practice riding and shooting more, and you'd better practice musketry more, otherwise, someone will I'm worried that you won't be able to reach Beihai. "
Niu Jinxing continued to look at Li Hongji and said: "I'm afraid no one is willing to follow us to the bitter cold land of the North Sea. "
Song Xiance chuckled and said: "Who said we are going to Beihai? We are just going north to hunt and replenish our food stores. ”
“What if someone doesn’t want to leave? "
"Let him stay and face Li Dingguo's harassment alone. "
"Where is Wu Sangui? "
"Haha, they are already ready to surrender to the Jiannu slaves, so what does it have to do with us.
Yun Zhao has made it known to the world that all Ming people have the duty to attack Jiannu, whether on land, at sea, or in the toilet. If Jiannu is found there, he will Kill the Jian slaves there.
Wu Sangui was short-sighted. At this time, he took refuge in Jiannu. The lonely king was already sure that his skull would become Yun Zhao’s drinking vessel! ”
