East Factory Governor

Chapter 426 Decision
Zhang Xianzhong threw the teacup on the table, and said angrily, "Gao Yingxiang, I have already said that he is a bastard with a vain name! His subordinates are also a bunch of pussies! Straight mother thief, what are you talking about, against his old lady?" ! Do my best to ruin my big business!"

All the generals in the account were too scared to speak.When Zhang Xianzhong got angry, he didn't need a reason to kill. At the beginning, a lieutenant said something more when he was angry, and he was immediately pulled out and chopped.

At this time, only Luo Rucai and Li Dingguo dared to speak.

Luo Rucai said, "General, let's think about how to deal with it at this time. The horse sentry found Qin Shuhuai in a short time, and now the other party may be less than 40 miles away from Hancheng!"

Li Dingguo immediately answered, "Father, or else I'll take someone to the north of the city to ambush and fight to the death with that Qin Shuhuai!"

Zhang Xianzhong looked back at Luo Rucai and said, "Is there any terrain suitable for ambush nearby?"

Luo Rucai shook his head, "They came from Shoufeng, the official road is relatively flat around, and there is no suitable mountain for ambush. But it is dark now, if we gather all the troops to ambush on both sides of the road, we may fight together when the time comes. But him!"

Zhang Xianzhong and Gao Yingxiang brought a total of 17 troops here this time, and there are still a little more than 13 soldiers and horses lost when they attacked the city and ambushed the Ming army who came to help.Of the 13, 1 were ambushed in Yichuan, and they only had [-].If you try your best to ambush Qin Shuhuai's [-] army with an army of [-] (the spies only saw [-], but didn't see the more than [-] cavalry Qin Shuhuai sent out before) army, there is indeed a good chance of winning.

Zhang Xianzhong thought for a while, and said to Li Dingguo, "Ning Yu, go to Gao Yingxiang's camp quickly, tell him the opinion of the military adviser, and see how he reacts! Hurry up!"

Li Dingguo immediately said, "Father commander, don't worry, the last general will go here."

Gao Yingxiang's camp.

Gao Yingxiang has not received the news of Qin Shuhuai's sudden appearance in Longmen Town, but news of a large number of Ming army cavalry appearing in Baimatan came from his horse post, which made Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng and others have a lot of doubts.

At this moment, Li Dingguo arrived.

"Chuangwang! Chuangwang! It's not good, Qin Shuhuai suddenly led his troops to appear in Longmen Town, and it is estimated that it is less than 30 miles away from Hancheng!"

All the generals in the account immediately stood up with a slam.

Gao Yingxiang's eyes burst out, and he said in great surprise, "What did you say? Qin Shuhuai appeared in Longmen Town? The news is reliable?"

Li Dingguo immediately nodded and said, "It's absolutely true, King Chuang! That's why my father asked me to come here quickly and discuss with you how to deal with it!"

Gao Yingxiang and his officers immediately set their sights on Li Zicheng.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious. Didn't you say that Qin Shuhuai must go back to Yichuan?Why did he appear in Longmen Town now?
Li Zicheng's eyes were bloodshot, and his fists were clenched and clucking!

He knew that he had underestimated this Ming monster!Not only did his countermeasure fail, but he was also used in reverse!
The demon of Ming Dynasty really lived up to its reputation!
The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds, and Zhang Mengcun suddenly scolded, "Damn it, which road did he emerge from? Our horse posts are everywhere, so why can't we find him?"

Li Dingguo said, "I heard that they came from Luchuan and Shoufeng!"

When the generals heard this, they immediately turned their attention to Liu Guoneng.

Because the horse post patrolling that road belongs to him.

Zhang Mengcun said angrily, "Liu Guoneng, Liu Guoneng, can't you stand against such a way?"

Liu Guoneng opened his mouth, but didn't know how to refute.

At this time, Li Zicheng said, "Don't talk about it, it's the same if you change someone else's horse post. Have you forgotten the horse soldiers in Baimatan? Qin Shuhuai had already sent horse soldiers to break into Shaanxi territory beforehand, and then separated some of them to block them quietly. On the small road west of Jiyi Town. You must pass there from Shoufeng to Hancheng, and the horse post must pass there if you want to come back as quickly as possible to report. As long as the opponent's cavalry adopts indiscriminate massacre, no horse post can come back."

Li Dingguo said, "General Chuang is right. Besides, Qin Shuhuai used the method of walking at night and lying down in the daytime, with a horse wrapped around his hoof. Firstly, it is difficult to find the horse sentry. Secondly, it is also at night when he finds out and comes back. It is impossible to avoid the official horse The team's ambush."

Liu Guoneng looked at Li Zicheng gratefully, and said, "Yes, yes, it must be like this."

Gao Yingxiang said, "Okay, now is not the time to discuss this. Dingguo, did your father-in-law say how he wants to deal with Qin Shuhuai?"

Li Dingguo hurriedly said, "Yes. My commander-in-chief means to gather King Chuang and our army to go to the north of the city to ambush Qin Shuhuai!"

Li Zicheng immediately said, "No way! The Ming army still has thousands or even more cavalry soldiers in Baima Beach. We don't know where they are now. If they join He Renlong's army and come to kill them, then we will kill them." Encountered on both sides, it is absolutely unbearable."

Li Dingguo was surprised, "They still have so many cavalry?"

Li Zicheng ignored him, and said directly to Gao Yingxiang, "King Chuang, I don't think Hancheng can be taken down! This time we wiped out [-] to [-] officers and troops, and it's not a loss. Why don't we just retreat!"

Gao Yingxiang was silent.

The generals were silent.

It can be seen that they are not reconciled.

They have been planning for a long time to win Hancheng. In the long run, this will be a move that will completely change the situation of the three sides. How can they be willing to let them give up now?

Besides, now that Qin Shuhuai is only 30 miles away, and he will arrive in a blink of an eye, even if the army retreats, can it be guaranteed that he will not chase him down?It would be fine if he pursued and killed Gao Yingxiang, but it would be very bad if he wanted to chase and kill Zhang Xianzhong.

Now there are only three paths before them.

One is to capture Hancheng before the arrival of Qin Shuhuai and He Renlong, so that they can hold on to the reinforcements by virtue of the strength of Hancheng, and then fight a decisive battle with the official army.In terms of the speed of mobilizing troops, the officers and soldiers are definitely not as fast as them, because their territory is nearby, and the soldiers and horses near the officers and troops have basically been wiped out.However, it only takes more than an hour for Qin Shuhuai to rush to Hancheng. Can they capture Hancheng in such a short time?

The second is to put all their eggs in one basket and go to the north of the city to ambush Qin Shuhuai.As long as Qin Shuhuai's army is defeated, they can go north to join the [-] army in Yichuan, and then fight back. Even if they can't take Hancheng, they can at least return to their territory safely.Moreover, after Qin Shuhuai's army was defeated, the officers and soldiers' strength on the three sides would be greatly emptied, which would be very beneficial to their future.However, if Qin Shuhuai could not be defeated quickly, when those cavalry and He Renlong's army arrived, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.

The third is to evacuate immediately, as Li Zicheng said.In this way, Gao Yingxiang's troops can be preserved, because his old lair is not far from here, there are several fortified cities there, it is useless for Qin Shuhuai to chase and kill him.But if he chases and kills Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong will definitely run around, and whether he can gain a firm foothold on the three sides in the future will be a problem.Without Zhang Xianzhong's support from the three sides, Gao Yingxiang would have lost a hand, which would be a huge loss.

Time is running out, and they need to make an immediate decision on what to do!
