Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, swear not to go to Meishan

Li Changgen was Li Zicheng's nephew. He was smart and eloquent. Li Zicheng and Niu Jinxing selected several of them and weighed them repeatedly. Finally, they sent him to serve as a messenger and supervisor to urge the Red Lady to lead her troops to withdraw to the camp.

However, Li Zicheng and Niu Jinxing have calculated everything, but they have not calculated all of Li Changgen's character. This guy is indeed smart and eloquent. To put it bluntly, he is a bit like a gangster in the market and has a glib tongue. Such people are often afraid of death.

This did not include the character of the Red Lady who dared to love and hate. She loved Li Yan to the extreme and dared to be the enemy of the world. If Li Zicheng dared to kill Li Yan, she would dare to kill Li Zicheng to avenge her husband.

They didn't even think that the whole thing was a big hole dug for them by Zhu Youjian. Military advisor Wu Buwei filled in the omissions and perfected the details. Sun Chuanting, the governor of the three sides, personally executed it. There were also Niu Ba's actor-level acting skills, Zheng Sanxi and others' matchmaking skills. He is loyal and loyal, and many factors come together just right to allow the plot to play out according to the preset script.

Li Changgen was afraid of death and did not wait for the Red Lady to torture him. However, although he was Li Zicheng's nephew, he was unable to enter Li Zicheng's core class due to his abilities and other reasons, and generally had no access to confidential information.

However, because he is smart and eloquent, and because he is Li Zicheng's nephew, some things can still be inferred from him through insinuations and other means. For example, Li Yan is an officer and soldier who has sneaked into the rebel army. He inquired and surmised the secret information that had been executed by Li Zicheng.

Husband... The red lady cried out sadly, vomited blood and fainted.

After waking up, although the red lady was deeply saddened, she did not cry. She took off her red phoenix armor and put on a white mourning dress. She was charming and charming, but her phoenix eyes were full of murderous intent.

Brothers, if you are willing to stay with my red lady, if you are not willing, leave the military camp immediately.

The red lady ordered the drums to be beaten and raised the tent, and called all the generals into the tent for a meeting. She first complained bitterly about Li Zicheng's crime of killing loyal ministers indiscriminately. She wanted to avenge her husband and vowed to take Li Zicheng's head. Then she showed her cards and left her brothers. She won't stop him if he wants to leave, but when they meet again in the future, they will be life-or-death enemies.

Eighty percent of the 100,000 troops were gone in an instant. These people were all those who had followed Li Zicheng in his early uprising or had been favored by Li Zicheng, but the elderly, weak, sick, disabled, women and children accounted for the majority.

The red lady kept her promise and allowed them to leave, but only gave them a few days of food rations and kept all their weapons and equipment.

There are less than 20,000 people left. They are all loyal old subordinates who followed the Red Lady in the uprising in the early years, or the poor people who recently joined when the Red Lady led the army to sweep more than a dozen counties in Kaifeng, and most of them are young and strong.

Although the strength of the Red Lady's troops has dropped sharply, they are mostly young and strong, and they have shed their heavy burdens. The three thousand old battalions loyal to her are all elites who have experienced hundreds of battles, and they have countless gold, silver and jewels stolen from the local tyrants. , there is sufficient food and grass, and the strength has not diminished at all.

On the same day, the red lady cut off Li Changgen's head as a sacrifice for her husband, and announced her official break with Li Zicheng.

Who leaked the news?

When Li Zicheng received the news, he was so angry that he ran away on the spot, roared like thunder, gritted his teeth, drew his sword and split the desk into two pieces.

He didn't care at all about the death of his clan nephew Li Changgen. What he cared about was the three thousand elite men under the Red Lady's command, as well as a large amount of grain, grass, gold, silver and jewelry.

That's a sum of money from the boss, enough to cover the expenses of his hundreds of thousands of troops for nearly a year. Who wouldn't be heartbroken to replace him?

Is that crazy woman really coming to kill Kaifeng?

Hmm... Niu Jinxing responded, with a strange expression on his face.

Madam Hong, this crazy woman, not only announced her break with King Chuang, but also killed King Chuang's nephew Ji Qi. That was all. She actually led her army to attack Kaifeng. She was really crazy.

Well, who leaked the news?

Niu Jinxing's eyes subconsciously glanced at Song Xiance, who was sitting on one side with a sullen face and said nothing. This guy was good friends with Li Yan, and he was quite a threat to him.
