Please ask me to be the emperor

In fact, Zhang Shun was not particularly interested in whether Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai followed his lead.

As the saying goes, if you have a dozen rabbits on New Year's Eve, you can celebrate the New Year with it, or you can celebrate the New Year without it!

Of course, just seeing that these two people are in such a state of poverty and are unwilling to belong to Zhang Shun, we know that they are not people who have been under others for a long time.

Compared with these "foreign" forces, Zhang Shun now prefers to cultivate and promote talents under his own command.

Firstly, loyalty is guaranteed, and secondly, it is easier to use.

Of course, if they sincerely belong to Zhang Shun, Zhang Shun will not turn them away.

Generals trained by oneself and foreign generals each have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Most of the generals who seek refuge from outside are the leaders of an army. Although their individual abilities may not be as good as those of the talents they cultivate and promote themselves, they are more comprehensive in ability and more independent.

If there is no problem with loyalty, appointing one party alone will bring more peace of mind and peace of mind.

When the middle-aged Confucian scholar saw Luo Rucai agreeing to Zhang Shun, he couldn't help but wink at him. Luo Rucai just pretended not to notice.

This Confucian scholar is none other than Wang Xuangui, Luo Rucai's new counselor.

According to his thoughts, Luo Rucai is a hero of one party, how can he succumb to others?

But Luo Rucai's own family knew about his own affairs. Now Zhang is facing a catastrophic situation, which cannot be resisted by other rebels joining forces.

If he really angered this person, how could they resist if he attacked the two of them today?

Seeing that these two people were willing to temporarily surrender to him, Zhang Shun didn't bother to argue with them.

He said directly: "Now my troops have broken through the defense line of officers and soldiers and captured Yuzhou, Xinzheng and Xuzhou respectively. Only Zuo Liangyu retreated from Yuzhou to Changge, and the truth has not yet been discovered."

"Since we want to fight with the officers and soldiers, firstly, we should capture Changge County in time to avoid any omissions in the defense line; secondly, we should find the defeated Zuo Liangyu in time and drive him out to avoid unnecessary trouble!"

Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai and others were all shocked when they heard this. Yuzhou and other places were the places they passed by when they went east, and they were quite aware of their geographical location.

In just a few months, had Zhang Shun actually pushed his territory here?

The two of them looked at each other, shocked in their hearts. They couldn't help but suppress other thoughts and asked honestly: "I follow King Shun's order, but I don't know what to do next!"

"It is often said among the rebels that 'General Chuang' is good at attacking, and 'Cao Cao' is good at fighting. I would like to leave the attack on Changge County to Brother Li, and the task of searching and driving Zuo Liangyu to Brother Luo. What do you think?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but asked with a smile when he saw that they were submissive.

Li Zicheng and Luo Ru then thought about it carefully. In fact, this was tantamount to Zhang Shun entrusting the entire defense of Changge County to them. It seemed that he had no other intentions.

The two looked at each other, nodded, and then responded: "That's fine, but if Katsuragi Ken grows up, we have to ask King Shun to help us!"

"Easy to say, easy to say!" Zhang Shun agreed repeatedly, and the joint venture between the two parties was settled.

After the business was done, Zhang Shun was impatient to reminisce with them. He responded with a few words and then smiled and said: "The war is about to start. There are many things in the army, so I won't disturb you two about the troops. I will go back and approve the number of people. I will order people to go first." Send me some food and grass!"

When Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai heard this, they couldn't help but feel happy. They looked at Zhang Shun gratefully and thanked him quickly: "King Shun Gaoyi, we have been defeated all the way. We are really at the end of our rope and we are in urgent need of food!"

Not to mention how the two of them were extremely grateful, Zhang Shunshi came out of Luo and Li's camp and saw that there was no one else on the left. Niu Jinxing then hurriedly said: "They are just two bandits, why does King Shun pay so much attention to them? "

"If the men and horses under his command are worthy of use, why not wait for an opportunity to attack them, kill their leader, and seize their men and horses? It is still a clever plan!"

Good guy, Zhang Shun glanced at this guy and thought to himself: You are so cruel!

As the leader of the rebel army, Zhang Shun also gradually realized that simply "talking about morality" was a stupid thing.

So Zhang Bian smiled and said: "We are both brothers in the rebel army, and I am its leader. I should uphold the justice of the world and swallow up the injustice!"

When Niu Jinxing heard this, he said, "Aren't you Song Xianggong? I have never seen my lord so stupid."

Sure enough, he heard Zhang Shun say again: "What's more, these two are treacherous and stubborn, and they are from Shaanxi. There are many loyal and desperate people under their command. It is useless to keep them, and it is a pity to kill them. It is not what a gentleman can do!"

"If I want to have more generals, I will choose good generals, train my soldiers, and then they will be ready in three months. Isn't this the right and upright way?"

Niu Jinxing was a very alert person, and he knew immediately that Zhang Shun had other plans.

The two men were so small-minded that they played tricks in every possible way, but they never thought that Zhang Shun had already despised their troops.

Just like the three battalions ordered by Zhang Shun to be organized and trained before leaving Luoyang, they are now ready for battle and are led by Zhao Lizi, Wang Shaoyu and Liu Cheng respectively.

Over time, as long as Zhang Shun has enough food and trust, soldiers and horses will be trained continuously, and generals will be trained like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Why should you look down on other people's bricks and tiles when you have gold, silver and jewels in your possession?

"Then the matter is like this?" Niu Jinxing asked a little depressed.

"Let's do it like this. We are in a hurry and don't have enough manpower. We will wait until Zhu Dadian, the governor of water transportation and governor of Fengyang, and Fu Zonglong, the governor of Henan, are defeated first!" Things have priorities. Although Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai are considered high-ranking in history, He is a character, but now he is just a somewhat ambitious bandit in front of him, so why should he be afraid?

"So how does daddy plan to deploy it?" There were some words that Niu Jinxing was not suitable to ask, so Gao Guiying intervened at the right time and asked.

Zhang Shun saw that there were no outsiders left and right, and then he said with a hearty smile: "This time the rebels boldly penetrated and broke the defense line of the officers and soldiers. What they want is to fight with speed and slowness!"

"The officers and soldiers are newly defeated, and the location is close to Kaifeng, so people must be panicked. I am sure that Fu Zonglong will urgently recruit Zhu Dadian, the governor of water transportation and governor of Fengyang, to come to help!"

"How can I honestly put on airs and fight them back and forth for 300 rounds, and then injure the enemy by 1,000 and injure myself by 800?"

"Now our army has formed a new front with the three cities of Xinzheng, Changge, and Xuzhou; then Mi County, Yuzhou, and Xiangcheng have become the deep ones; and Dengfeng, Jiaxian, Baofeng, and Ruzhou are the back-up lines. How can I fight!"

"I want to recruit the three battalions of He Renlong, Bai Guangen and Zhang Yichuan to follow me eastward. I hit Tongxu hard with a right uppercut. I don't believe that Fu Zonglong and Zhu Dadian will have time to deploy a new line of defense!"

"Natongxu County is located on the canal, south of Zhuxian Town. Once it is acquired by me, I can use water transportation to obtain supplies to keep an eye on Chenliu and Zhuxian Town, and then threaten Kaifeng."

"If the officers and soldiers are really unprepared, they will definitely panic. When Kaifeng is available, we will take it. If it is not, the rebels will take the opportunity to capture Weichuan, Weishi and other places."

"If Kaifeng still cannot be attacked, I can also go south to Ruying and revisit Fengyang and Caoyun. Zhu Dadian is in Henan at this time, how can he sit back and watch Nanzhi rot?"
