Burial Ming

Chapter 30 The Back of the Palace

Li Zicheng was very satisfied with Xiao Tianjian's low posture, so he laughed and said, "I dare not do it, I dare not do it!" Li is already very satisfied with the help of General Xiao. How dare he let General Xiao be the pioneer? That's it! My light loading speed will be faster, so let's go to the front! Later, this is our old camp. I'm afraid it will slow down. Li asked General Xiao to lead the rear of the army and take care of our old camp by the way. Most of the old camp are Li and his brothers' wives and children, and hundreds of soldiers are also in the old camp. If there is no one to take care of them, they will be taken by the officers and soldiers, and ask General Xiao to escort us. How about the old camp coming to Longzhou later?

Seeing that Li Zicheng did not have the idea of standing in front of him, he asked him to take care of their old camp. Xiao Tianjian had a little more affection for Li Zicheng. Li Zicheng did this, obviously like he conveyed goodwill and showed his trust in himself. Since Li Zicheng did this, Xiao Tianjian would naturally repay him. So he immediately nodded and agreed, "Since Li Chuang has decided, it's better to obey than to obey!" Please rest assured, Li Chuang and the generals. The old camp of your department will be handed over to Xiao to take care of him. Xiao guarantees that he will never let the old camp of your department be disturbed by the government!"

After Li Zicheng's subordinates will see Xiao Tianjian's promise, he will have a better impression of Xiao Tianjian. Although they don't believe in the real combat effectiveness of Xing Tianjun, just looking at the team formation and equipment level of Xing Tianjun, it is expected that their combat effectiveness will not be much worse. They are responsible for the back. Face to take care of the old camp, then they will have no worries about rushing to Longzhou first, so everyone thanked Xiao Tianjian one after another. After the two sides said goodbye, Li Zicheng gathered their soldiers with the generals and began to set out in the direction of Longzhou.

Xiao Tianjian immediately gave an order and took the old camp of Xing Tianjun to protect Li Zicheng, who was behind Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses, and began to set out for Longzhou.

Longzhou is Long County in later generations. It is located in the west of Shaanxi Province in later generations. It is at the junction of Yanyang County. It is under the jurisdiction of Fengxiang Prefecture. It is the only way to go to Pingliang Prefecture in the northwest. For Shaanxi, it is an important pass. There is usually a guard and army stationed here, who is responsible for the safety of Longzhou. Some time ago, Xiao Tianjian heard that it was stationed here. It is He Renlong, the deputy general of Shaanxi, but Xiao Tianjian is not very clear whether He Renlong is still in Longzhou at present.

But at present, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng have obviously focused on Longzhou. Obviously, they may have detected the situation in Longzhou. In this regard, Xiao Tianjian is obviously at a disadvantage compared with them. He has just joined the army, and his main focus is on the direction of Fengxiangfu. Do you understand the situation in the direction of Longzhou? Many, but judging from Gao Yingxiang's behavior of leading his troops to make a detour to Baoji County this time, he obviously wanted to confuse the attention of the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers in this area were only 4,000 officers and soldiers under the command of He Renlong, so Xiao Tianjian guessed that Gao Yingxiang's move should be to transfer He Renlong out of Longzhou and attack Long for Li Zicheng. The state provides opportunities.

Li Zicheng led 4,000 songs. After leaving first, he basically did not rest along the way and rushed all the way to Longzhou, while Xing Tianjun was responsible for taking care of Li Zicheng's old camp because he had a lot of heavy weight, so he slowly stayed behind. Considering that there were more women in Li Zicheng's old camp, and And even Li Zicheng's two wives, Gao and Xing, were in the old camp. Therefore, in order to avoid misunderstanding, Xiao Tianjian ordered his subordinates to strictly abide by military discipline and not harass each other.

And the Xingtian army has long been used to this strict military discipline. Along the way, after Li Zicheng's old camp, they slowly walked at the end of the team and basically did not have contact with the other party. Although Li Zicheng handed over the old camp to Xiao Tianjian's care, as an old camp, in addition to a large number of his troops In addition to his wife and children, his old camp also has the role of the barracks. Most of the heavy camp also acted with the old camp, so he completely handed over the old camp to outsiders, and Li Zicheng would not rest assured. Therefore, with the old camp was a sentry horse left by Li Zicheng, led by Gao Jie, the general of Li Zicheng, to protect the old camp, so Xiao Tianjian The Xing Tianjun can only provide protection for Li Zicheng's old camp on the periphery.

This Xing Tianjun also attracted the attention of the people of Li Zicheng's old camp. They looked curiously at the Xing Tianjun troops marching on their two wings and pointed out the comments one after another. Some people's eyes will inevitably show envy, especially the way Xing Tianjun's action is very curious, starting from Xing Tianjun. Since then, all the generals have always been marching at the speed of the drum beats of the drummers in their army, and have always maintained their formation. Even if they encounter some narrow road sections, they have staggered forward in an orderly manner, and the military discipline has always maintained a strict state.

Gao Jie rode on a war horse and looked at the soldier and horse in front of him from time to time. From the beginning of disdain, he gradually began to feel shocked.

He originally thought that Xing Tianjun was just pretending when he set out. After walking all the way, it must be difficult for them to maintain such a military appearance, but in the afternoon, it was close to dusk, while Xing Tianjun always maintained a formation, and there was no chaos at all, and Their soldiers looked very resilient, and few people fell behind. The drums sounded all the way among them, and the soldiers walked all the way on the drums, not seeing their fatigue at all.

And looking at the generals under his command, let's not talk about the women and children of the old camp. The military discipline is not binding for them, and it's nothing to be chaotic, but even the 500 people under him, compared with the subordinates of the Xing Tianjun, are obviously not at the same level, which makes them a little arrogant. Gao Jie was quite discouraged. Originally, he wanted to watch Xing Tianjun's jokes, but at the end of the day, he did not see it as Xing Tianjun's jokes, but the performance of his generals fell to the bottom, which made Gao Jie a little depressed.

After starting from Tianlongzhai, they did not take the official road from Yanyang to Longzhou, but took a shortcut and directly inserted into Longzhou from the northeast of Longzhou. There were basically no armed forces along the way, and only a few Dazhuangs were on their way forward.

Although these Dazhuangs are armed, they dare not provoke such a large number of mutant civil troops passing through them. What's more, after seeing the first batch of thousands of mutant civil troops passing through here, they saw the Xingtian flag that appeared behind them from afar, and they did not dare to offend them. They had to close the Zhuang door tightly and prayed in Zhuangzi in fear, praying that these chaotic troops would not hit their Zhuangzi's ideas.

The ultimate purpose of Li Zicheng and Xiao Tianjian's trip was to attack Longzhou, so they didn't bother to talk to these Zhuangzi on the way. However, when they passed through these Zhuangzi, they sent people outside the village to threaten the people in Zhuangzi, so that they could not come out to look for trouble, so they let them go and rushed to Longzhou.

Gao Jie, as the chief general of the old camp, looked at the sky, so he galloped towards the Xingtian Army with a few soldiers.

"General Xiao, it's getting late now. It seems that I can't catch up with Longzhou City today. How about we camp on the spot and rest for a night and continue to the road tomorrow?" Although Gao Jie is responsible for leading Li Zicheng's old camp, it is still necessary for him to say hello to Xiao Tianjian in terms of etiquette.

Xiao Tianjian also looked at the sky. At this time, it should have been four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun in the sky has also turned west. Although in his opinion, it is not too late to walk for another hour, since Gao Jie has proposed to camp and rest, considering that in Li Zicheng's old camp, most of them are old and weak women, which is not comparable. The generals under his command nodded with a smile and said, "Since General Gao wants to camp and rest, he will camp here as General Gao wants!"

Our department is camped on the east side of your department. If necessary, General Gao can send someone to look for it! Don't worry about the peripheral general Gao. Just leave it to our department in charge!

Come on, pass the order, stop moving forward, camp on the spot and bury the pot to make rice!"

With a burst of horn, the drums of the various departments of the Xingtian Army, which were winding on the road, stopped abruptly, and then there was a command of an officer ordering to stop moving forward. More than 2,000 Xingtian's army immediately stopped and quickly gathered together according to Xiao Tianjian's instructions. The place began to camp on the spot.

Gao Jie looked at the rapid action of the Xing Tianjun's troops and slightly praised it. It seems that Xing Tianjun was not a fluke to be so famous in the area around Fengxiang Mansion. Just looking at the style of the Xing Tianjun Department, he couldn't help but admit that the training level of Xing Tianjun should be far from them. Above the Rebels.

So Gao Jie arched his hand to Xiao Tianjian and said, "It's so good. There will be General Lao Xiao!" After saying that, he immediately rushed back to his headquarters and began to order the arrangement of the camp.

After August, the day began to get shorter. As soon as the time passed, the sky was completely dark. About a distance between the two camp plates were set down. A pile of bonfires ignited in the two camp plates, cooking and boiling water were all busy. And a war horse ran out of the Xingtian army and soon disappeared into the darkness, guarding all the important roads within five miles around.

Gao Jie stood outside the old camp with his hands behind his back, looking at the Xing Tianjun's camp not far away, looking at the shadows and soldiers of the Xing Tianjun in the camp and listening to all kinds of command orders. He frowned and shook his head and said to himself, "It's really strange! When did such a soldier and horse come out here? ......”

After he finished checking the sentry post in the camp, a female soldier from the old camp found Gao Jie and said to Gao Jie, "General Gao, Mrs. Xing, please!"
