Burial Ming

Chapter 12 Rejection

Xiao Tianjian immediately laughed and pulled Tian Jianxiu's hands, shook them hard and said, "I didn't expect it! I can't believe I'll see Brother Tian here today! It's been a long time! Hurry up and go inside!"

Originally, before Tian Jianxiu came, what attitude would Xiao Tianjian see him after seeing Xiao Tianjian? He was still worried that Xiao Tianjian would not see him, but when he saw Xiao Tianjian meet him so enthusiastically, he put his heart in his stomach.

When Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng squeezed Xiao Tianjian and wanted to annex Xiao Tianjian's Xing Tianjun, Tian Jianxiu was quite dissatisfied. For this reason, he quarreled with Li Zicheng twice. But later, he didn't expect that Xiao Tianjian actually said to leave. He withdrew from Longzhou with his subordinates without saying a word, and then he didn't know what to do. Traces.

It was not until after the Spring Festival that Li Zicheng and them heard that Xiao Tianjian actually ran to Shanxi all the way after leaving Longzhou, and in just over a year, he won a piece of their territory in Shanxi, and even defeated the officers and soldiers several times in a row, so that he became famous in Shanxi.

But look at the elders of the Rebel Army, they have been fighting in the south and the north for more than a year, from Shaanxi to Henan, from Henan to Lianghuai, then to Huguang and Sichuan, and finally they were chased back to Shaanxi. Up to now, they don't even have a foothold. From the end of last year to now, they are even against Shanglu Xiangsheng. Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting and others lost more and won less, so that the days during this period became more and more sad, so Li Zicheng thought of sending him to contact Xiao Tianjian again.

Originally, Tian Jianxiu was a little ashamed to come to find Xiao Tianjian, but it was not easy for them to live their lives now. Under Li Zicheng's many persuasion, Tian Jianxiucai was shameless, disguised as ordinary exiles with a few relatives, entered Shanxi all the way, and listened to the control of the Xing Tianjun. In Yuanqu County.

As a result, not long after they entered Yuanqu County, they were found by the local township troops patrol of the Xing Tianjun and arrested several of them.

Fortunately, even if Tian Jianxiu said that he was Xiao Tianjian's old friend, he was not killed by those villagers on the spot. Later, he was escorted to the ancient town and was brought here by Feng Gouzi.

When the two entered the room for a long time of greeting, and after the banquet was held, they sat down separately. Tian Jianxiu said with emotion, "I didn't expect it! Nearly two years have passed in this flash! Think about it when I was outside Longzhou City... Alas! It doesn't matter if you don't mention it! I didn't expect it! In just two years, Brother Xiao has made such a large area! It's really beyond Tian's expectation! Brother Xiao is really a great talent!"

Xiao Tianjian still has a good impression on Tian Jianxiu. In his short contact with Li Zicheng and Gao Yingxiang, only this Tian Jianxiu is good to him and has a close relationship with him. Xiao Tianjian is also a temperamental person. People respect me a foot, and I respect people a foot. If it were someone else, Xiao Tianjian will definitely not give it. He looked good, but today Li Zicheng sent Tian Jianxiu to see him, so he was still willing to give Tian Jianxiu this face.

"Where, where! Brother Tian, you're welcome! The fool is also lucky. He just hit it by mistake! How can you be famous for the thirteen old families! Who doesn't know that over the years, the Southern Expedition and the Northern War have turned the Ming Dynasty upside down. Compared with you, Xiao's actions are really not worth mentioning! Ha ha!

Why didn't Xiao think of the wind that blew Brother Tian to me this time? Come on, come on! Brother, let's have a toast to Brother Tian first!" After Xiao Tianjian was polite, he raised his glass.

After Tian Jianxiu and Xiao Tianjian had a glass, they put down their glasses and sighed with a wry smile, "Brother Xiao is really polite! The fact that you defeated several officers and soldiers in Shanxi has already spread all over the north of Henan, and no one in all walks of life does not know! Brother Yu also heard about you after the Spring Festival. Compared with you, we are really a little ashamed!

To tell you the truth, this time the stupid brother came here and asked for something! I hope you can abandon the past and help us with this!"

Xiao Tianjian is really not very clear about how big his reputation is now. In his opinion, people around Shanxi know that his name is true, but no matter how far away it is, it can't be said. Today, after listening to Tian Jianxiu, he knew that he really fought after these battles. Out of prestige, even the rebels in various places have heard about them now. It seems that in the future, among the Rebels, his Xing Tianjun should also be a famous name. No wonder in the past few months, more and more people have come to him. If there is no fame in this era, it is really difficult to get along!

However, after listening to Tian Jianxiu's words, he was still moved. When Tian Jianxiu said so, is it related to the capture of Gao Yingxiang?

So he laughed and said, "Brother Tian is really polite. There is no need to mention the past, but I don't know what Brother Tian wants his brother to do?"

After Tian Jianxiu sighed, he looked up and took a sip of wine, and then said, "I'm afraid I haven't heard of it yet!" There is something wrong with the king! More than ten days ago, when the king led his troops to Heishuiyu, he was suddenly ambushed by Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi, and the dog official bribed several of the king's subordinates, so that the king was defeated and captured!

Brother, I am also entrusted by the general. For this reason, I came thousands of miles to find you. I just want to ask my brother for help and save the king on the way! If this time is done, we Li Chuang said, and we will be very grateful. We will thank you very much, brother!"

Xiao Tianjian listened to it, come on! That's really the thing! So even if he put down the wine glass and meditated, after a while, Xiao Tianjian asked, "So does Brother Tian know where the king will be escorted by the government this time? Brother, what can I do to save the king?"

Tian Jianxiu looked at Xiao Tianjian's hesitation, so he immediately said, "Brother, before I came, I heard through details that Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting were planning to present the king to the capital to wish him a happy life after holding the king!" From Xi'an to Beijing, it is expected that they must pass through Xiezhou, Jiangzhou, Pingyang Prefecture and other places to enter Beijing through Taiyuan Prefecture.

And along the way, it happened to pass near your territory, so our general thought about it over and over again and decided to let Brother Yu have the cheek to ask his brother for help. When he was near the route of the team escorted by the officers and soldiers, he took action to save the king! Except for you, we can't count on anyone now!"

After listening to Tian Jianxiu's request, Xiao Tianjian didn't say in his heart that Li Zicheng thought it was beautiful and asked me to rob Wang Gao Yingxiang's prison car. What's the benefit to me? This is simply a fool's dream. I'm not stupid. Why do you want to do such a stupid thing that set you on fire? Is it just because of your success that you must be thanked?

So he frowned and thought about it. After a slight hesitation, he said to Tian Jianxiu, "This... I don't hide it from Brother Tian. I'm afraid it's not easy!"

The king broke into the hands of the government. As far as those officials in the government are concerned, how can they not realize the importance of the king? They will definitely send a large army to escort the king into Beijing. No matter whose jurisdiction it passes along the way, the local government will definitely attach great importance to it. It will never be carelessly. It will definitely set up cards everywhere and strictly guard it!

Although the team that escorted the king may take this road, the Yudi's sphere of influence is only limited to the mountains around Yangcheng, Yuanqu and Qinshui. If they want to go to Xiezhou, brother, I can't reach it! It's not that the fool doesn't help Brother Li, but that he is willing but weak! I'm afraid it's difficult for me to help you this time!"

After listening to this, Tian Jianxiu asked Xiao Tianjian excitedly, "Brother, do you still remember that Gao Chuangwang squeezed you at the beginning? Although this matter is wrong for the king of the break-up, after all, whether it is the king of the break-in-breaker or our general, they all want to pull your brother into the gang, so this is the worst! Brother..."

Xiao Tianjian raised his hand to stop Tian Jianxiu's words and immediately said, "Brother Tian doesn't have to mention this matter anymore!" The past is over! Brothers are not people with small belly and chicken intestines. How can they hold grudges like this? The reason why my brother said this is that it is just a matter of fact. Brother, there are only thousands of troops under my command. There are nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers in the area of Xiezhou alone, not to mention the escorted officers and soldiers in Shanxi, plus the escort soldiers and horses on the side of Shanxi. Even if my brother and I come out, will I be the opponent of the army? At that time, I'm afraid that not only will it not save the king, but the brother will also fold in!"

Tian Jianxiu opened his mouth and asked Xiao Tianjian in disbelievously, "Brother Xiao only has thousands of soldiers and horses? No way! After the Spring Festival, we heard that Hong Chengchou mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers and horses on the Fourth Road of Shanxi and sent He Renlong, Zuo Guangxian, Xu Dingguo and other four generals to gather in Yangcheng, but he was defeated by your brother. Brother, do you only have such a few people?

Xiao Tianjian smiled and nodded and said, "Brother Tian, do you think I, Xiao, am the kind of person who is talkative? The fact is that my brother has only 7,000 soldiers at present, including one or two thousand children's soldiers. It's not that my brother refuses to help this, but that he is really weak! I can only say I'm sorry for this!

As for the king of Gao Chuang, I, Xiao, have always admired him very much. For his capture this time, my brother also sighed! But since we have chosen to be the enemy of the imperial court, we must have the awareness of being defeated and killed. The king was unfortunately captured, which is also determined by fate! Don't blame others or anything! Brother Tian doesn't have to persuade his brother anymore! If this matter can be done, but the brother doesn't do it, it's brother's fault, but this time the brother really can't help!

But if it's something else, if you can help, as long as Brother Tian says something, the brother will try their best to do it for Brother Tian!"

Looking at Xiao Tianjian's no room for manoeuvre, Tian Jianxiu was surprised. What surprised was that Xiao Tianjian's soldiers and horses were so strong. In the case that the officers and soldiers were several times more than them, they could still win the battle and stood firmly in Shanxi without being driven away by the officers and soldiers. At the same time, he also knew that Xiao Tianjian's heart had been determined. There is no room for manoeuvre. This is not that Xiao Tianjian still remembers that he and Gao Yingxiang refused to save each other in the past, but in this case, it is impossible for him to fill this pit with his strength. Now in this troubled world, there are soldiers and generals. If he puts his soldiers in for Gao Yingxiang. Not to mention that Xiao Tianjian is unwilling to do this kind of thing, no one will do it, so he has to sigh deeply and shakes his head and said, "In this case, it seems that you can only complain about the king's life! Alas! ......”
