Several miles away from the south gate of Shouzhou City, the camps of 200,000 thieves were covered with mountains and fields, and there were tents and huts everywhere. The thieves in the camp gathered together in groups, drinking and having fun, playing money, gambling, listening to music and opera, laughing and slept soundly in the tent. The entire camp seemed to be as lively as the market was in the market.

A large tent was erected in the center of the camp. This was the tent of the king of treasury Gao Yingxiang. It was enough to accommodate a hundred people. Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong and the main leaders of the thief were drinking and discussing matters.

Due to the hot weather, several doors of the big tent were lifted up, and everyone in the tent was full of chì     luǒ, and some even wore a pair of shorts. When they were drunk, a gust of wind blew through the hall, which immediately attracted everyone to feel comfortable.

Gao Yingxiang put down the wine bowl in his hand, glanced at Zhang Xianzhong who was chewing at his desk and said, "Jingxuan, after capturing Shouzhou and seizing the food and grass, I plan to go straight west, take Yingshang, and Yingzhou and enter Henan; where is the place where we can show our skills? What are you planning? Continue to join forces with me, or divide the troops to go elsewhere?"

Zhang Xianzhong stood up, chewing a piece of half-baked beef in his mouth, and said vaguely: "King of Chuang, what I, Lao Zhang, mean, we will go to Fengyang after the battle of Shouzhou. Fengyang has no walls, and grab another replenishment of food and salary, and join forces with the old horses in the sky. After robbing Fengyang, we will walk eastward and capture a prefecture and county, so that the court thinks that we want to attack Nanjing. The soldiers of the Nanzhili Guards have long been decayed. At that time, the court will have to transfer troops from the Central Plains to protect Nanjing. Except for King Lu of Yan, Henan, the rest of the official army is not good at all. As long as we transfer King Lu of Yan, we will shoot back to Henan with a fake shot, and we still want to attack anyone!"

Gao Yingxiang thought for a while and felt that what Zhang Xianzhong said was reasonable. Since his uprising, he had suffered a great loss under Lu Xiangsheng. He was not afraid of other officials. If Zhang Xianzhong's plan to attack the east and west was successful, Lu Xiangsheng would probably be transferred to the southern Zhili area. Jiangnan is the important food and tax for the court, and there is no way to make any mistakes. Once Lu Xiangsheng leaves Henan, he will lose one of his major concerns. He will fight back to Henan and gather refugees to seize the opportunity to capture Kaifeng. That will shock the world.

However, although Zhang Xianzhong's plan is good, he seems to be inferior to him. If he acts exactly as his idea, wouldn't he be the King of Rebellion be incompetent?

Gao Yingxiang snorted, "The literati of the court are all treacherous like ghosts. Jingxuan, your plan is not bad, but I think it is impossible to deceive those big headscarves. To the east, there are rivers and ponds, and my subordinates are more than 10,000 elite cavalry, but if I encounter a warrior who can fight in Nanzhili, it is not worth it. If you want to fight, lead your subordinates to the east. I will still turn west to Henan. I am not afraid of him, King Lu Yan!"

How could Zhang Xianzhong not see his little thoughts? He knew that he was a narrow-minded person and could not tolerate others being stronger than him, but who said that he was strong? The situation was stronger than others. Under the current situation, he had to count on him to shelter from the wind and rain. Otherwise, once he divided his troops out, the court would definitely kill himself at all costs. Burning the imperial tomb would be a serious crime to kill the ten clans.

As his mind turned, Zhang Xianzhong slapped his thigh and smiled, "Well! It's still a king of ​​Breaking King! I forgot the more than 10,000 elite cavalry under the command of the King of ​​Breaking King! The river network in the southern Zhili area is densely populated, and it is indeed not a place for cavalry to use their skills. I, Lao Zhang, thinks a little bit! No wonder the world's rebel army is headed by the King of ​​Breaking King, because it can see clearly! I, Lao Zhang, admired it!"

Gao Yingxiang picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, with a smug smile on his face: "I, Gao Yingxiang, went from a horse dealer to tens of thousands of elite soldiers today. It's not about rushing hard, but about here!" After saying that, he put down the wine bowl, pointed his head with his fingers, and continued.

"I am also a man who has read military books and has his own strategies. I'm not a fan of it. Looking at the Ming Dynasty, there are not many people who are proficient in strategy like me and can command thousands of troops! Don't look at Jingxuan, you have been with the army. Aren't you just an official army? You are still a little worse than me, hahahaha!"

Zhang Xianzhong sneered in his heart: I have been studying in a private school for a few years, and after joining the army, I have experienced many battle formations, marching and setting up camps and camps. You are a horse dealer, in addition to writing your own name, you are also familiar with military books. Do you recognize the words in military books? Are you shameless? You are also proficient in strategy. Bah! You can gather so many people because you are generous in spending money, otherwise who would like to follow you?

The other leaders in the tent were yelling and laughing, and no one paid attention to the conversation between the two leaders.

Zhang Xianzhong smiled and said, "Old Zhang has been obeying the King of Chuang in this life, so I will follow the King of Chuang! I will go wherever the King of Chuang goes!"

Gao Yingxiang nodded in praise and said, "Jingxuan, I, Gao Yingxiang, said this. I will really accomplish anything in the future. I will give you the Grand Marshal of the World!"

Zhang Xianzhong was extremely disdainful, but he looked extremely grateful on his face. He solemnly bowed: "The words of King Chuang made Lao Zhang feel warm in his heart. There is nothing to say. King Chuang has an order, so I will never be vague!"

Gao Yingxiang nodded with a smile and said, "The thing that is important now is to capture Shouzhou. We have been here for two days. We have just reported to the army. There is not much food and grass. It takes a lot of money to chew 200,000 people in one day. The rich people around Shouzhou have already brought their property to the city in advance. I guess that as long as we capture Shouzhou, we will not have to worry about food and grass within one month! Let's do this, Jingxuan, I will give you the important task of siege. I have to mobilize the cavalry to clean up the official army and horse team behind. I will guarantee you that you will not be sealed for three days after breaking the city!"

Zhang Xianzhong cursed in his heart, knowing that Gao Yingxiang was dissatisfied with his constrained to save his strength every time he fought. This time he made up his mind to consume his strength. But the two of them were chatting so enthusiastically just now that they were ready to become emperors and be named the marshal of themselves. This time, they really couldn't refuse, otherwise Gao Yingxiang would really turn against him.

"Don't worry, King Chuang, I will definitely take down Shouzhou as soon as possible! But my men are short of weapons and arrows. I hope King Chuang will add some more! I will return to the camp and prepare for it. Just wait for King Chuang to come, and I will take people to attack the city immediately!" Zhang Xianzhong stood up and expressed his passionate attitude.

Gao Yingxiang was very angry. As his power grew, the leaders of all thieves flattered him when they saw him, and no one dared to obey his orders. This also made him gradually develop the habit of being domineering, so he least wanted others to set conditions in front of him. Only this Huang Hu repeatedly disobeyed his orders. This time, he opened his mouth to ask for this and that. Gao Yingxiang really wanted to draw his sword and chop him up. But now there is an official army behind him and a strong city in front of him, which is not the time to turn against him. Just bear with him and wait until the city is broken, and he will definitely send someone to find an opportunity to kill him!

Gao Yingxiang stood up and waved his hand generously and said, "The rebel army in the world is originally a family, and some soldiers are very good! Jingxuan is going to return to the camp to prepare, I will send it to you here! But I want to see Shouzhou break within two days. Otherwise, Jingxuan, the military order is not a joke!"

Zhang Xianzhong bowed his head and bowed, "Don't worry, King Chuang! I will definitely take down Shouzhou within two days!" After that, Zhang Xianzhong picked up the armor beside him, without wearing it, and greeted Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo and several adopted sons left in a hurry.
