When searching Li Yan's troops, it can be said that Li Zicheng was extremely wrong, and all of Li Yan's subordinates were dissatisfied with this.

Li Zicheng was waiting for the result. The searchers came to report to Li Zicheng and found a letter between Zhang Biwu and Li Yan, which made Li Yan save Zhou Yuji.

Niu Jinxing was laughing because the letter was not written by Zhang Biwu, but was copied by Niu Jinxing. When his confidant copied Li Yan's troops, he pretended to have copied it from Li Yan, which seemed to hit Li Yan.

Li Zicheng looked at the contents of the letter over and over again, and he was already furious! He ordered: "Remove General Li Yanzhi and the right military advisor! At the same time, send people to Lingbao to capture Zhang Biwu to the army! If Zhang Biwu dares to resist, Liu Fangliang will send troops to wipe him out! Moreover, Tian Jianxiu from Guanzhong will also send troops to destroy him together!"

Niu Jinxing was proud: "Zhang Biwu, don't think I don't know! You have no intention of joining my master! And you are walking with Li Yan, you are very dangerous to my master! I asked my master to destroy you early, and I am also loyal! If Lin Quan is suppressed, he will never threaten my position again! The head of civil servants will always be me Niu Jinxing!"

Li Zicheng waved his hand and signaled Niu Jinxing to go down. He wanted to be alone and calm down. Niu Jinxing retreated.

The next day, Li Yan and Li Mou were invited to Li Zicheng, and it was actually more appropriate to say that the bet was.

(Note: I searched a lot of information, and saw that some of the information written about Li Yan's younger brother Li Mou, some of them were Li Nian, or Li Mu. There were even some information that Li Yan and Li Mou were the same person! There were also four brothers, Li Lun, the eldest brother, was studying martial arts in the original martial arts, and was selected as tribute students. The second brother, Li Zhonghua, was named Daliang, and was a tribute student in the Hanoi Academy. He practiced boxing and martial arts with his younger brother, Li Yan, Chen Zuting. The third brother, Li Jun... studied martial arts in the martial arts learning school... As for whether there was Li Yan in history, or what kind of thing, I won't discuss it! My book writes Li Yan's younger brother as Li Mou.)

Niu Jinxing looked at the two brothers Li Yan with pride. He was waiting for Li Zicheng to speak. What kind of expression would the Li Yan brothers do at that time?

Li Zicheng said: "Mr. Li, thank you for your hard work! If it weren't for your personal leadership to attack Ningwu, you wouldn't have killed Zhou Yuji so quickly! Alas! What a pity, Zhou Yuji is a powerful general, I want to take him for myself! It's a pity that he died in battle for Chongzhen!"

"What!" Niu Jinxing was shocked. Didn't Li Zicheng punish Li Yan? Why did he change his mind now? It is said that the emperor has no jokes, and Li Zicheng will be the emperor in the future. Did he change his mind? Something must have happened that made Li Zicheng change his mind. What exactly was? Niu Jinxing was waiting for Li Zicheng to tell him the reason.

When Li Yan and Li Mou left, Li Zicheng kept Niu Jinxing. Seeing Niu Jinxing confused, Li Zicheng smiled and said, "Prime Minister, I can't be bad for Li Yan! After all, there is no evidence! And..." Li Zicheng threw a report to Niu Jinxing.

When Niu Jinxing saw it, he couldn't believe it: "Zhang Biwu gave away Shanzhou and Lingbao to us? He let our army occupy these places? This is his nest! How could he retreat so simply? When we saw him saying he retreated, we didn't believe it! But now he..."

Li Zicheng said: "Yes! Now Zhang Biwu has withdrawn from the Lingbao land, so Tongguan will be safe! Chang'an's safety can be reassuring! And we have broken Ningwu and can attack Datong directly. Datong General Jiang Guan sent someone to ask me for surrender. If I delay Zhang Biwu's affairs again, Jiang Guan will change his mind! Now we should immediately go to Yanmen, occupy Shuozhou, and go directly to Datong! Then we will go to Xuanda, Juyongguan, and finally Beijing!"

Niu Jinxing understood that Zhang Biwu withdrew from Lingbao, leaving Tongguan without any threat. At the same time, Jiang Guan’s surrender letter was received, and the Li Yan brothers were capable ministers in the army and had a very high status. At this critical moment, Li Zicheng would not punish them. On the contrary, he had to comfort them well. After all, even Zhou Yuji’s body has not been found, so it is said that Zhou Yuji is dead!

Zhou Yuji's affairs are still small. The most important thing is to conquer Beijing as soon as possible and seize the country. Niu Jinxing knew this, and he also admired Li Zicheng's thoughtfulness. No wonder Li Zicheng changed his mind in one night.

Niu Jinxing immediately said, "Yes! Breaking Beijing first is the most urgent task! Even if Li Yan and Zhang Biwu have the idea of ​​rebellion, they will tolerate them first. They know that Your Majesty's tolerance will suddenly wake up. Thank you for your great virtue!"

Li Zicheng nodded and said, "Okay! Just help me settle the search of Li Yan's military camp! Don't let Li Yan hate me! Go!" Niu Jinxing then took his leave.

Li Zicheng pointed his hand at Beijing and shouted: "Beijing! Gu is here! Chongzhen, you and I have been fighting for more than ten years. This time, we should decide the outcome, right? Gu doesn't want you to escape to Nanjing! As long as you don't escape to Nanjing, you will defeat Beijing with one battle. Although Jiangnan is big in the future, you can make an order. If you want to pacify the world, you don't have to go through much battle! This is beneficial to the people of the world!"

What Li Zicheng did not expect was that Zhang Biwu did not retreat to Nanyang with his men. Instead, he arrived not far from Ningwu. He looked at Li Zicheng's men covering the sky and moving eastward.

Although Li Zicheng first set out on the war, he had a lot of people, but every time he captured a land, Li Zicheng would be assigned to garrison, so his number would be reduced when he arrived in Beijing.

Zhang Biwu looked at the army that was leaving, and he always felt sad. Although Chongzhen wanted to harm him many times, now he was about to die in the country when facing Chongzhen. He did not have the desire to gloat, and he felt a sense of melancholy and sadness in his heart.

Zhang Biwu couldn't help but remembered that he had read history books before. Zuo Liangyu did not listen to Chongzhen during his lifetime and even fought against Chongzhen. However, after Chongzhen's death, he missed Chongzhen extremely and felt that Chongzhen was dead and could not fulfill his duties as a minister every day. Perhaps people are so strange. When they are still alive, they think nothing about him. Once he dies, he always feels unknown sadness and longing.

Li Jun looked at Zhang Biwu and said, "General Guoxiong, I never thought you would come here! General Zhou Yuji, I have brought you safely! It's a pity that General Zhou Yuji's wife and others could not save them, they were all **! General Zhou Yuji was seriously injured..."

Li Jun said this and stopped talking. After all, it was difficult to save Zhou Yuji. It was impossible to protect him from being hurt.

Zhang Biwu thanked Li Jun: "Thank you! General Li! Go back and tell your brother Yi, if I go to Beijing, I hope he can help me! And I want to remind him that once the Dashun Army arrives at Beijing, the military discipline will be severely damaged, and then the people of Beijing will suffer! This will also lay the root of disaster for the Dashun Army's failure!"

Li Jun was stunned again and said, "General Guoxiong, are you really going to Beijing? This time..." Li Jun seemed very embarrassed.

Zhang Biwu naturally realized that this time he caused trouble for Li Yan. If he hadn't ordered him to withdraw from Lingbao in advance and reassure Li Zicheng, his fate and Li Yan would have suffered misfortune.

Zhang Biwu said: "I have told my brother that I went to Beijing to repay my kindness! Even if I know, so that my head can be put on the ground or some difficulties, I will also get to Beijing!"

Zhang Biwu knew that because he was a Ming general, he went to Beijing without being summoned. He would be misunderstood to save the Ming royal family. If he was really caught, it would be a lot of danger! But now he can't care about so much, Zhang Biwu wants to rescue Princess Kunxing!

Although he knew that Princess Kunxing would not die in this disaster, he thought that he would sneak into the palace first when Beijing was in decline and prevent Chongzhen from killing Princess Kunxing's arm! Let Princess Kunxing exit the Forbidden City safely. This can be regarded as Zhang Biwu's last protection for Princess Kunxing!

Zhang Biwu came to see Zhou Yuji. He saw Zhou Yuji not speaking out. Zhou Yuji also turned his head to the other side and ignored Zhang Biwu. He hated Zhang Biwu, why didn’t he drag Li Zicheng in Lingbao? If Sun Chuanting retreated to Tongguan, if Zhang Biwu dragged Li Zicheng in death, the situation would change!

If Li Zicheng could not enter Qin, he could not establish a national title, nor could he occupy Shanxi. He then went east to Beijing to seize the world and destroy the Ming Dynasty. It was precisely for these reasons that Zhou Yuji was particularly annoyed by Zhang Biwu.

Zhang Biwu said to Zhou Yuji: "General Zhou, I know you must be very angry with me. Why didn't I drag his feet in Lingbao when Li Zicheng defeated Sun's commander? So that the commander Sun's commander was relieved! What I can say is that I can't drag it down. I only have more than 10,000 people, and Li Zicheng has hundreds of thousands of troops! What's more, the emperor has repeatedly harmed me. I don't have the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor like you. All I have is that you are kind to me, so I will be kind to you! The national soldiers are treated by our country, and the dirt is returned to me when they meet me! It is said that the king is not polite to the ministers, and the ministers have not seduced foreign countries to attack, which is a good reward!"

Zhou Yuji still didn't say anything, and he did not agree with Zhang Biwu's explanation. Zhang Biwu could also see that it was not easy to eliminate the anger in Zhou Yuji's heart?

Zhang Biwu said, "General Zhou, what I can say is that it would be better if Chongzhen could escape to Nanjing. I have already submitted a memorial to him to quickly hunt Nanjing. But can he listen? Alas! If he doesn't listen, the city of Beijing will be broken, and Chongzhen will only die for his country."

"The Tartars will defeat Li Zicheng and occupy Beijing, so that our Han people's throne will fall. All we can do is to compete with the Qing Dynasty! Do you know? The Qing Dynasty has sent people to wait on Li Zicheng's way eastward and sent a letter to Li Zicheng!"
