I want to be emperor

Chapter 16 Funiu Mountain

In the mountains in the southwest of Ruzhou, a cavalry team of nearly 70 people walked slowly in the mountains.

After everyone reached a relatively flat place halfway up the mountain, because it was getting late, they stopped and began to set up camp.

At this time, Luo Zhixue was busy, urging the ministries to set up tents and send out sentries.

After dealing with these, Luo Zhixue walked to a huge rock with a lot of exhaustion, where Sun Jiancheng's Chinese army camp was temporarily placed.

After seeing Luo Zhixue coming in, Sun Chengli took the lead and said, "Brother Luo has worked hard on this journey."

Along the way, Luo Zhixue made arrangements for marching and camping. Although these things did not seem to be important, they were just trivial things, but Sun Chengli knew that these trivial things were equally important.

At least it can make the team march in a disciplined manner without chaos.

In the past, Sun Chengli was actually the one who did these things, but now that Luo Zhixue was doing it for him, Sun Chengli was relieved a lot.

Luo Zhixue said at this time: "Serving the Great General, how dare you say it's hard."

Sun Chengli said: "With Brother Luo's help, I can save a lot of worry, but Brother Luo, you can't ignore the military strategy just because you worry about camp affairs. Now we are considered to be initially safe. What's the next step?" What should we do? Should we continue going south to the boundary of Nanyang Mansion, or go to Luanchuan and Lushi in the west? Or should we simply go east and go to Lushan, which has a flat terrain? We have to get rid of Brother Luo, and you can make a plan!"

Luo Zhixue said: "General, don't worry, Zhixue has been thinking about this for the past two days."

As he said that, Luo Zhixue took out his hand-drawn map again and said, "The position we are in now is quite dangerous!"

"There is Chen Zhibang, the defender of Ruzhou in the east. According to the news we inquired from the past merchants yesterday, Chen Zhibang in the east is not only stationed in Ruzhou and Yiyang, but also stationed heavily in Lushan!"

"He, Chen Zhibang, wants to guard Ruzhou. Ruzhou is the capital of the state. He must guard it. Yiyang is the city near the mountains in the west of Ruzhou. He also attaches great importance to it. On the edge of Lushan Mountain in the south is the crucial Luyang Pass. "

"This Luyang Pass must be controlled by the officers and soldiers. Otherwise, a large number of rebels from Henan and Nanyang would pass through this pass and wreak havoc on the two places without any restraint. Instead of relying on climbing mountains and ridges like now, You have to climb a mountain to travel between the two places.”

"Looking at Chen Zhibang's posture, he has made up his mind to guard against death in Ruzhou. If we rush eastward, it will be easy to go but not easy to go. After all, the terrain in the east is flat, and there are many under Chen Zhibang's hands. Jingqi, once he is entangled by his cavalry and wants to escape, it will not be easy."

At this time, Sun Chengli also said: "It seems that going east is impossible, and there is Zuo Liangyu in the north, so naturally he can't go."

In the area of ​​Henan Prefecture in the north, there is Zuo Liangyu's main force there. The reason why Luo Zhixue and the others appeared in this mountain is that Zuo Liangyu drove them all the way south. Running for their lives all the way, not to mention there are only a few dozen of them now.

For the sake of their lives, it is naturally impossible for them to go north and return to Henan Mansion.

At this time, Sun Chengli said: "Neither the north nor the east can go, should we go to the south or west?"

Luo Zhixue still shook his head lightly: "General, the Lu family in the west is the governor of Henan Province Xuan Mo personally leading the army, so you can't go to that place!"

"The south is Nanyang Mansion. It is a dangerous place with Chen Yongfu sitting in the town, just like the plain in the east of Ruzhou. The place is unobstructed and convenient for us to move, but it is more convenient for the officers and soldiers to move. The cavalry bites."

"And the reason why there are so many Ming troops stationed in the above-mentioned places is because there are many rebels in these places, and the official army is mobilizing large troops to besiege them step by step. Of course, we can fish in troubled waters, but we will also suffer from disasters."

"When the officers and soldiers encircle and suppress the rebels, they don't care who you are or which bandit army you are. If you encounter them, you will fight together!"

Hearing this, Sun Chengli's eyebrows were already frowned: "We can't go here, so what should we do?"

Luo Zhixue raised his head at this moment and said: "In my subordinate's opinion, we are not going anywhere, we will just stay in this mountain!"

"Look, General, there is a large mountain to the south of Song County and west of Ruzhou. This place is not small enough for us to hide in it."

"And these places are not uninhabited places. Although there are fewer people, we can also find some villages, and then I told you, General, to find a place to rest and take a breather."

Listening to Luo Zhixue's words, Sun Jiancheng stared at Luo Zhixue's hand-painted map for a long time, and finally said: "This is the only way to do it now!"

After the two discussed it carefully, Lin Dongsheng, Wang Dazhuang, and Xu He also came to participate in it one after another. Finally, everyone made a preliminary decision to go to Funiu Mountain west of Luyang Pass.

In the end, Luo Zhixue said: "Funiu Mountain is close to Lushan County and Nanzhao County, and there are quite a few people nearby, which is enough for us to replenish personnel and supplies to cultivate your health and build up your strength. When necessary, we can directly get you from these two places. Let's go out and run across Ruzhou and Nanyang."

"Even if officers and soldiers intercept us, we can retreat back to Funiu Mountain calmly. The terrain in the mountain is complicated, and officers and soldiers dare not enter the mountain rashly. Even if they do, we can set up an ambush to fight back."

"Taking a step back, even if the officers and soldiers are coming in menacingly, Funiu Mountain can't stay anymore, we can continue to go to the mountains to the west, and go to hide in large groups in the Lu family area of ​​Song County."

"Set up troops on Funiu Mountain, and we will be able to advance and retreat freely."

When everyone discussed before, they felt that Funiu Mountain was good, and they decided to go to Funiu Mountain, but now after listening to Luo Zhixue's summary, everyone became more determined to go to Funiu Mountain.

Sun Chengli said: "Okay, this matter is finalized, we will go to Funiu Mountain to stay for a while."

After Sun Chengli made the final decision, he planned the marching route for tomorrow. If there is no accident, they will be able to reach the Funiu Mountain area after walking for two more days.

After discussing all matters, everyone retreated one after another, and Luo Zhixue dragged his exhausted body out of the camp of the Chinese army.

As soon as he stepped out of the tent of the Chinese army, An Yongduo, who was waiting outside, greeted him: "Sir!"

Luo Zhixue nodded slightly: "Well, everything is settled?"

An Yongduo said: "Mr. Hui, Brother Ding and the others have already arranged the tents."

Luo Zhixue nodded slightly: "Ah, where's that boy Yu?"

Ernst and Young said: "Perhaps he has traveled a lot in the past two days, and he has already eaten and slept!"

After hearing this, Luo Zhixue realized that it was getting late, the sun had already set, and the sky was gray and dark.

He estimated that this meeting should be around seven o'clock in the evening.

Although the days are long in summer, it is also dark at this time.

Luo Zhixue said: "Thank you for your hard work, that little guy has caused you a lot of trouble."

An Yongduo said: "No trouble, ah, he is sensible, no matter whether he is riding a horse or walking along the way, he will not cry or make trouble."

Luo Zhixue didn't think it was strange, since Lin Ahyu had suffered all the sufferings in the world in his only six years of life, how could he be ignorant!
He must be sensible!
Before it was completely dark, Luo Zhixue took An Yongduo to inspect the barracks again, and at the same time inspected one of the outer sentries. After confirming that it was correct, he returned to the tent that An Yongduo and the others had set up before.

After a simple meal, Luo Zhixue washed up briefly before lying down.

That night, Luo Zhixue didn't sleep well, and had several dreams in a row.

There was a dream that woke him up straight away!
In his dream, he dreamed that he became a great traitor, led an army of refugees to attack the city, and finally went all the way to the capital. Defeated, his army entered the capital and entered the palace.

However, in a blink of an eye, it was discovered that Wu Sangui and the Manchu army had already reached the capital city, and finally broke through the city, and killed him in front of him. The defeated Luo Zhixue finally watched Wu Sangui kill him, and shouted, "How dare you?" Grab my woman' and then kill it.

In the next moment, Luo Zhixue woke up from his dream!
And the back is already full of cold sweat!
The self in this dream obviously became Li Zicheng's second. After entering the capital, he was attacked by the coalition forces of Wu Sangui and the Manchu and Qing forces, and was finally defeated and killed.

But right.

Why did Wu Sangui say that he robbed his woman?

I look like a horse who likes broken shoes?

Well, according to the rumors of later generations, Chen Yuanyuan, one of the eight beauties of the Qinhuai River in the late Ming Dynasty, was very beautiful, looking back...

Alas, the point is not here, the point is that I was in my dream, why was I so stupid to take a group of refugees to attack the capital, and then was killed by Wu Sangui and the Manchu allied forces?
These are all things that have happened in history, why should I follow in the footsteps?

This shouldn't be!
After having a dream, after dreaming that he became Li Zicheng's second, Luo Zhixue thought about it for a long time, and finally fell into a deep sleep.

After he fell asleep, he seemed to be dreaming again, and from time to time, words such as Qinhuai Bayan, Liu Rushi, Dong Xiaowan, line up and so on came out of his mouth incomprehensible.

Early the next morning, when Luo Zhixue woke up from his sleep, there was nothing wrong at first, but soon he noticed something was wrong. After looking down carefully, Luo Zhixue sighed: "You are still too young!"

He still overestimated the resistance of this body against the pink skull, and it was just a plain dream, as for...

After tidying up, Luo Zhixue stared at the dark circles under his eyes and walked out of the camp. After a simple meal, he started his new day's work and continued to manage the camp.

After walking like this for another two days, Luo Zhixue and the others finally arrived at the Funiu Mountain area.

But after arriving at Funiu Mountain, the sentry sent back bad news to Sun Chengli, Luo Zhixue and the others.

The Funiu Mountain they are looking at is not a land without an owner, but an owner.

And that group of people, like them, is also a gang of thieves. I heard that they ran to Funiu Mountain to settle down a month ago.

After Sun Chengli listened to the news that the scouts came back, it was rare for him to hold back an educated sentence: Could it be that the heroes see the same thing?
