Chapter 623 Breakthrough Direction

Li Zicheng looked gloomy and stared at Gao Yigong for a while, then turned to Li Guo, Tian Jianxiu and others.

Everyone was already accustomed to Li Zicheng's suspicion and fickleness, so they dared not speak.

Li Zicheng seemed to have no intention of asking them to speak, and his eyes moved to Wu Sangui's head.

Wu Sangui looked calm, stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I think we cannot fight head-on with the Ming army, and we should break into Sichuan. As long as we enter Sichuan, the dragon enters the sea, Huguang, Yunnan, and Guizhou, the Ming Dynasty had almost no troops. We can learn from Zhu Yuanzhang from the south to the north and decide the world!"

The people in the lobby looked ugly, but no one immediately refuted it.

Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan are all remote areas. What can you do if you go there? If you are used to eating pork, can you go to the bark and drink miasma?

Li Zicheng also frowned when he heard this. He also didn't want to go to places like Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan.

These places have long been barren, and nine out of ten rooms are empty. Where can I go, what can I get?

He had a great headache and couldn't think too much. He turned to Gao Yigong, Li Guo and others, and his eyes were red, "You guys said."

Gao Yigong didn't dare to speak at this moment, so Li Guo had to get up and said, "Your Majesty, we actually have only two choices, either to go east or west, and we can't be trapped here all the time. My idea is to break through and enter Shaanxi again! Shaanxi is vast and sparsely populated, so we can defeat the official army again!"

Li Zicheng gritted his teeth, sat up, forced himself to hold on, and said, "What do you say?"

"Shaanxi, let's go to Shaanxi!"

"That's right, go to Shaanxi! We were careless before. If we fought head-on with the government army, we should drag them down as before!"

"Yes, as long as we follow His Majesty again, we can completely invade Beijing again. I want to see how many Xibos there will be in the Ming Dynasty!"

"Okay, let's go to Shaanxi again!"

A group of people shouted and agreed to enter Shaanxi again.

Li Zicheng's head hurt even more. It hurt so much that he couldn't control himself. He waved his hand hard and said, "Then that's it, you guys go and do it, I want to take a break."

Everyone also saw how severe Li Zicheng was, so they looked at each other and had to get up one after another, raised their hands and said, "I will leave."

Li Zicheng watched them walk, and then struggled to walk backwards. Before he could get behind, he fell head-on.

Li Zicheng's wife Gao was shocked and screamed to help him up, but she couldn't wake him up. And Li Zicheng began to cough up blood.

Gao was frightened and quickly called his younger brother Gao Yigong.

Gao Yigong brought the "Imperial Doctor" together. The sister-brother relationship stood in front of the bed, and saw the "Imperial Doctor" giving Li Zicheng a pale and covered in blood.

Gao was so anxious that he was speechless and cried.

Gao Yigong looked solemn and extremely nervous.

They were already depressed and looked like they were defeated. If Li Zicheng fell ill at this time, his morale would inevitably be in chaos. Once the official army arrived, he would inevitably be defeated at once!

Gao kept staring at the imperial physician, retracted his hand, and asked quickly: "Imperial Doctor, what's wrong with Your Majesty?"

The imperial physician stood up and raised his hand, saying, "Greeting back, Your Majesty's headache is getting worse and worse. You need to rest assured and not be surprised and angry."

Gao became more and more uneasy and said, "Tell me honestly."

The imperial doctor looked at Gao, then looked at Gao Yigong, hesitated, and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid..."

Before he finished speaking, Gao opened his eyes and retreated repeatedly.

Gao Yigong quickly grabbed her and said anxiously: "Empress, Empress..."

Gao had fainted and his face was full of panic.

Gao Yigong urgently ordered the "palace maid" and the "ichidharma" to treat him.

The ‘Emperor’ and ‘Empress’ fell ill one after another, and the ‘Palace’ was in a mess. When he was in danger, Gao Yigong was calm and quickly blocked the ‘Palace’ to prevent the news from leaking. At the same time, he called Li Guo, Tian Jianxiu and other Li Zicheng’s confidants to come over to discuss secretly.

Gao Yigong, Li Guo and Tian Jianxiu stood in front of Li Zicheng's bed, looking at Li Zicheng's face full of pain and unconsciousness, frowning and looking solemn.

At this critical moment, Li Zicheng was unconscious, but what should he do?

Li Guo is Li Zicheng's nephew. Looking at the other two, he said calmly: "The 300,000 army is not united. Not to mention that those who are rebellious and do not obey Your Majesty at all. Even Wu Sangui and others have ulterior motives. I also know that many people have some connections with the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know how many people want to surrender..."

They were defeated all the way from Shanhaiguan, and they almost never stopped. Their morale was low. I don’t know how many people surrendered to the government army. Now, it is even more difficult to count how many people want to escape and surrender to the government army...

At this time, almost everyone knew that Li Zicheng had a desperate situation, and the so-called "Da Shun Dynasty" was short-lived and could never rise again.

But the middle and high-level officials of them were already tied to Li Zicheng's chariot and could not get off, so they could only walk one way to the black.

Tian Jianxiu listened to Li Guo's words and said with a serious expression: "Gao Jie has sent countless people in secret. I can't tell who has a different ambition now. It seems that everyone has it."

Gao Jie was a person who followed Li Zicheng for a long time, especially with the support of the Ming Dynasty, who was deeply trusted by Li Zicheng. I don’t know how many of his people were in the rebellion army, or who believed him.

If Gao Jie had not had an affair with Xing, he had to be a traitor, and his current status was extraordinary!

Gao Jie was involved, Gao Yigong, Li Guo and Tian Jianxiu became even more worried.

Gao Yigong looked at the expressions of the two, then looked at Li Zicheng who was unconscious and said, "What should I do now?"

Tian Jianxiu said: "Without Your Majesty, we cannot move those people even if we have a token or the Empress. The official army is about to attack, so we must get along with each other!"

Li Guo had a firm expression and said, "Without Your Majesty, we can't do much. If we had no choice, we would take Your Majesty to break through, enter Sichuan, and then go to Guizhou!"

This is also Gao Yigong's always thought. He believed that going to Shaanxi would be wiped out by the government army, and it would be better to go to Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, which had weak power in the Ming Dynasty.

Tian Jianxiu looked at the expressions of the two, hesitated, and said, "If this happens, we will take up to 50,000 people, and the others will be left behind."

Gao Yigong is Li Zicheng's brother-in-law, and Li Guo is his nephew. They are all close friends, but Tian Jianxiu is a little "estranged".

Li Guo did not consider these things and said directly: "Those people who are interested in Ge must not be able to take them. There is no other use except to hold them back. Those people are even more useless. We don't have that much food and grass. As for Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and others... we can make them cut off the rear!"

Gao Yigong also struggled a little. If they really wanted to do this, the loss would be too great!

Li Guo seemed to know Gao Yigong's struggle and said, "You also know who those are, and it's a burden to take them. Let's put aside them and go into battle lightly. 50,000 people are enough to conquer Sichuan. If you can gain a foothold in Yunnan, you can go north to Nanjing, learn from Zhu Yuanzhang, and attack from the south!"

Tian Jianxiu seemed to have made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "No matter how late, the official army is about to attack, we must prepare early!"

Gao Yigong's expression was certain and said, "Okay! Let's take Your Majesty's token and break through to Shaanxi. They will restrain the Ming army and we will go to Sichuan!"

Li Guo and Tian Jianxiu nodded solemnly. At this time, he could no longer hesitate.

The three of them discussed and began to "fake the imperial edict", adjust the "300,000 army" and prepare for the "defeat attack on the Ming Dynasty".

Just now, Li Zicheng set the "direction" in the lobby. Gao Yigong and others were Li Zicheng's confidants. This was not the first time such a thing happened. So although Li Zicheng did not come forward, some people muttered in their hearts, but they could not guess that Li Zicheng was already unconscious and could only act according to the orders of Gao Yigong and others.

At this moment, Li Zicheng's army could not choose much, it was just the direction of breaking through.
