Chapter 51
In the past few months, Li Zicheng has been aggrieved and depressed.After struggling for more than ten years, he finally broke into the Forbidden City and sat on the dragon chair, but he was kicked out by the Manchu Tartars before his butt was warm.

It's like being a spare tire for more than ten years, and finally caught up with the goddess and was about to get a certificate. When I arrived at the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the goddess was snatched away again.

No matter who puts this kind of thing on, he will be so fucking angry that he vomits blood!

Fleeing all the way west, losing the city and land, the army was defeated.Li Zicheng was like a bereaved dog, anxious and restless, drinking his sorrows all day long.

Gao Yigong feigned surrender in Tongguan, but died in the hands of Wu Sangui.Empress Gao quarreled with Li Zicheng, yelling for Li Zicheng to avenge her brother.

At first, Li Zicheng didn't even want Xi'an anymore. He discussed with Liu Zongmin and Niu Jinxing that he either fled to Sichuan or Xiangyang.

When going to Sichuan, it is inevitable to compete with Zhang Xianzhong for territory, which is another fierce battle.These two old enemies have been fighting for their whole lives, and the outcome is unpredictable.

Going to Xiangyang, you have to face Zuo Liangyu's 80 army, which is also very difficult.

When hesitating, Song Xiance and Li Guo returned to Xi'an one after another, and the two urged Li Zicheng to defend the city of Xi'an.Song Xiance grabbed the ground with his head, which was bruised and bloody; Li Guo cried so hard that his heart was broken, and he spoke sincerely.

Song Xiance held up the letter from Chongzhen, and said: "Your Majesty, when we entered the capital, Chongzhen made it clear in the letter that we should beware of Wu Sangui and Jiannu, but the emperor refused to listen. The minister did not try his best to persuade the emperor, which led to The army was defeated like a mountain, and the minister felt very guilty!"

Li Guo hugged Li Zicheng's thigh and cried: "Uncle, even if you become the emperor, you are still my uncle. I risk my life today, so I must say a few words from the bottom of my heart. Chongzhen told me that running away blindly will only make the situation worse." It’s out of control, we can’t lose Xi’an, we can’t lose the base that we worked so hard to build!”

"Chongzhen, Chongzhen, Chongzhen is so powerful, but he was beaten by me and fled south in a hurry! Humph, I was just unlucky..." Li Zicheng blew his beard and glared.

In fact, he also agreed with Chongzhen's views in his heart, but he was an enemy of Chongzhen all his life, and he was unwilling to accept advice from Chongzhen.In other words, Chongzhen's ability to predict things like a god deeply hurt Li Zicheng's self-esteem.

The officials of the Dashun Dynasty were also divided into two factions, one faction was in favor of defending Xi'an, and the other was in favor of continuing to run away.

When the dispute was over, Empress Gao rushed into the hall with a broom, rolled up her sleeves, and cursed:
"Li, since you became the emperor, you have become a different person, and you have forgotten the fundamentals of being a human being. Why, does the postman really regard himself as the emperor of the real dragon?"

"Others don't know, but my mother knows your details. You are here today because of the love of the people and the hard work of the soldiers! Open your still blind eye and take a look. The people have suffered misfortune these days. After being bullied by the Tartars, the soldiers have never been so useless. Where else can you go?"

"Put away your pitiful self-esteem. What Emperor Chongzhen said is right, so you just do it. You have listened to Chongzhen's advice, and now you are still staying in the Forbidden City. How can you become the laughing stock of the world?"

"I told you to run, run, I will use family law today!"

After speaking, he rushed over with a broom and hit Li Zicheng on the head and face.

Li Zicheng has many problems, especially after he became the emperor, his whole person is high-spirited, and his arrogance is getting stronger day by day.

But only dare not provoke his wife, because Gao accompanied him through many bleak and desperate times, and was the pillar of his life.

"Ah, old lady, stop beating me, I'm an emperor after all..." Li Zicheng dodged in the hall.

Li Zicheng ran, and Queen Gao chased him.This farcical scene that took place in the Golden Luan Palace is probably unprecedented in history.

"Stick to Xi'an, I will stick to Xi'an, and I won't go anywhere, okay?" Li Zicheng finally gave in.

Empress Gao threw away the broom, knelt down and said, "The emperor guards the city of Xi'an, and my concubines will never leave the emperor's side; if the city breaks down, my concubines will be the first to die for the country, and I will never live in ignorance!"

The big plan is certain, and the morale of the sluggish is suddenly high.The officers and men of Dashun were also holding back their anger, and they were relentless in killing the Tartars, all in a desperate posture.

In this way, the mighty Azig was woken up and frightened by the beating.After besieging the city of Xi'an for more than a month, he returned in despair, withdrew from Tongguan, retreated to Taiyuan, and thought about continuing to retreat to Datong.

The soldiers and civilians of Dashun were elated. Although Li Zicheng did not admit that he had anything to do with Chongzhen to save the decline, he knew the truth of going all out, and immediately rectified the army and sent troops to recover the lost ground.

After some time, the battle of Huaiqing was about to break out.

……

The peasant army launched a counterattack, and the situation in the world changed.Dorgon hurriedly ordered Duoduo to evacuate Xuzhou and go to join Azig, wanting to destroy the peasant army before making any calculations.

Xuzhou was rescued, and Li Cunming soon received a letter from Yan Ermei.At the same time, Yan Yingyuan's letter was also brought to Huai'an.

Li Cunming was both surprised and delighted to learn that Yan Yingyuan was not dead, and that he met Ren Qi and went to Yimeng Mountain.

"Okay, my painstaking efforts were not in vain. Many chess pieces I buried before finally played a big role. The direction of this chess game is beginning to be controlled by me." Li Cunming was overjoyed.

Huang Degong asked: "My lord, what should I do next?"

Li Cunming looked at Huang Degong and said: "Jingnan Marquis, I will keep an eye on the situation in the north. You go to Jiujiang and keep an eye on Zuo Liangyu for me. Zuo Liangyu has 80 soldiers and horses. Although the combat effectiveness is not strong, there are many people. The power of the crowd is always a hidden danger.”

Zuo Liangyu in history, at about this time, suddenly led troops eastward along the river, seriously threatening the safety of Nanjing, and Li Cunming had to guard against it.

Immediately announced the decree: "Huang Degong was promoted to the Duke of Jingguo, led the army and horses of the headquarters, and cooperated with Jiangxi governor Yuan Jixian to sit in Jiujiang, guard against Zuo Liangyu, and defend Nanjing."

When Huang Degong heard the decree, he immediately burst into tears of gratitude: "I swear to be loyal to the emperor and the Ming Dynasty!"

"Ding, get Huang Degong's positive emotion value of 10000"

When meeting the emperor this time, Huang Degong was already mentally prepared to be deprived of his military power by being lowered. He did not expect that the emperor not only raised his title, but also returned the soldiers and horses to him intact. How could he not be grateful to Dade?
To deal with a hypocrite, one must be a real villain; to deal with a loyal person, one must be a real gentleman.

This is Li Cunming's imperial mind!
"Mr. Jingguo, I have written two letters. You take them to Yuan Jixian. Both of you are loyal and important ministers of the country. You must work together. Yuan Jixian understands military affairs and has strategies in mind. Your title is higher than him, but When encountering major events, you should listen to his opinions more. Do you understand?"

"As for Weng Zhiqi, talent is rare, and I have another appointment, so Aiqing should not be reluctant."

"Your Majesty, keep this in mind!"

Huang Degong left Huai'an, rode to the city gate on horseback, looked back at Huai'an City and praised: "I, Huang Degong, will meet a hero in this life, and I will follow His Majesty the Emperor to the death. I will definitely achieve immortal feats and leave a name in history in the future. What more can I ask for!"

After seeing off Huang Degong, Weng Zhiqi returned to the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, what should I do?"

"Don't be impatient, Aiqing, follow me back to Xuzhou first." Li Cunming laughed loudly, and slapped the table with a slap, "No matter who attacks Jiannu Tartar, I will help the situation!"

Then he looked out of the window with his hands behind his back, and muttered to himself: "The battle of Huaiqing concerns the safety of the world. Li Zicheng, it's time for us to join forces."
