Zhang Mingwei's plan was to station a large army in the Chengdu Plain, waiting to harvest a wave of food before launching an attack on Li Zicheng's troops.

There is another advantage of doing this, which is that it can wait for the various places to suppress the thieves to see if they are going well. If it doesn’t go well, he can also send reinforcements.

……………………

For Li Zicheng, although overall, the imperial army did not launch a major offensive against him, the dividing line between the two sides was that he controlled most of the Kuizhou Prefecture, the southern part of Shunqing Prefecture, the eastern part of Tongchuan Prefecture, the entire Chongqing Prefecture, the Bozhou Xuanwei Office, and even some places in Luzhou. However, he felt increasingly uneasy.

Those who went out to explore the road from Kuizhou Prefecture along the Yangtze River came back and reported that Huang Degong led the army to guard the enemy's defense on the other side of the road out of Sichuan, and basically they could not fight.

Li Zicheng naturally experienced Huang Degong's ability. It was difficult to walk out of Sichuan and could not take advantage of his military strength. This also means that the road to the east of Shu was cut off.

As for the Shu Road to Qin, there is only one lychee road in his control. However, news has been heard back now that on the other side of the lychee road, there are Hanzhong generals leading the army to guard the two places in Zhenba and Xixiang, which means there is no hope.

However, these are not the most troublesome things that Li Zicheng has, because from the moment, at least if there is something wrong, he can retreat to the Yunnan-Guizhou area. What he has the most troublesome is the frequent desertion situation in the army.

After his efforts some time ago, he has indeed improved a lot and no large-scale defection incidents have occurred. However, the situation of small-scale deserters has always existed in various armies and cannot be eliminated at all. The number has accumulated to a large extent, and the number has remained large in the past few months.

Although he was also trying to capture those deserters, as long as there were deserters, they would be a warning to all. But even so, it was still impossible to ban them.

Facing Sun Chuanting's offensive in the north, and the Duke Xingguo in the west, to be honest, Li Zicheng has lost a lot of his hair during this period. If this continues, he may become bald.

But even so? He never thought of surrendering to the court! In fact, he had never had such an idea since he embarked on this path.

Zhang Xianzhong still surrendered in Gucheng? But Li Zicheng would rather have the 18 cavalry fled into Shangluo Mountain, but he had never surrendered to the imperial government army? Even if he had fake surrender, he had not surrendered.

This is not to say how strong he is? But if he is used to being the leader, he is not used to flattering the court officials! Of course, he is also worried that he, the thief leader, is really going to surrender? Maybe others are fine, will he be settled by the autumn future!

On this day, Li Zicheng heard that Hotan Mixiu had reported another group of surrendered soldiers to the He Jin army, and he was furious.

"This damn Tian Jianxiu? Don't be caught by me, otherwise I will definitely cut him into pieces!"

"Look at his thick eyebrows and big eyes? It turned out to be such a person. I was really blind at the beginning!"

"Check it out for me? All the defected families were taken to the front line and cut them!"

“…”

After getting angry for a while, looking at the group of people below, Li Zicheng took his anger again: "Why are you not talking anymore? Are you watching my joke?"

"Are you learning from Nada Mishui too? Are you going to sell me back?"

"I've known this for a long time. You want to surrender to the government army, right?"

“…”

He was in a fit of anger, and the civil and military officials below lowered their heads, and no one dared to look at him.

But suddenly, Song Xiance looked up and there was a hint of surprise on his face.

Seeing this, Li Zicheng felt so heartbroken: OK, I didn’t expect the military advisor to gloat. Should he also abandon him?

Thinking of this, when he was about to get angry, he heard Song Xiance tell him with surprise: "General, I have a plan to break the current situation!"

As long as he is a human being, he can always come up with a solution. Song Xiance is worthy of being the military advisor who stands out in Li Zicheng's troops, and he actually came up with a solution.

When Li Zicheng heard this, it turned out that this was the case. He was overjoyed. He quickly stared at Song Xiance and urged him to say, "Oh, the military advisor has a clever plan. Come on, come on, come on!"

When the others heard this, they were also curious, so they turned to look at Song Xiance, wanting to hear what his idea was to break the current situation?

I heard Song Xiancai answer Li Zicheng confidently: "My plan is to follow the plan!"

"..." Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and he used the trick. It sounded very good!

When he came to his senses, he couldn't even sit still. He quickly stood up, took a few steps, and came to Song Xiance in front of him, and said anxiously: "My good military advisor, where did the plan come from? Come on!"

"Tell me if you have any ideas!" Niu Jinxing looked at this and was not very happy on the side, so he said sourly, "Don't think you are self-righteous, but it's a bad idea!"

What he didn't expect was that when Li Zicheng heard it, he actually glared at him, obviously not hiding what he said.

This is actually easy to understand. Li Zicheng is really worried about the current situation. Now that he hears that there is a plan, he certainly hopes it is a good plan! Niu Jinxing said this, it is equivalent to a crow's mouth, who would like it!

Song Xiance ignored Niu Jinxing at all, but looked at Li Zicheng and said, "Didn't the imperial official army always lure our brothers to surrender? Why not secretly choose a trustworthy brother, pretend to surrender, and then cooperate with each other, and will definitely defeat the imperial official army!"

When Li Zicheng heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but immediately came to his senses and was overjoyed. He patted Song Xiance on the shoulder heavily, making Song Xiance grin a little, but he himself didn't feel anything. He just praised him, "Oh, yes, why didn't I expect it! In this way, it can not only severely attack the arrogance of the imperial government army, but also make the imperial government army dare not come to persuade me to surrender unscrupulously in the future! OK, OK, OK!"

Niu Jinxing was so sour that he heard it. This was really a good idea. Why didn’t he expect it in advance!

Seeing Song Xiance laughing, he always felt that Song Xiance was very proud, so he turned his eyes and said, "General, the imperial army may not be fools, should they trust them so much after surrendering?"

Li Zicheng did not answer, but Song Xiance turned to look at him and answered his question first and said: "Brother Niu, if it were the beginning, I believe that the imperial army would definitely prevent false surrenders. However, so long has passed, but this has happened? Everything will be relaxed after a long time!"

After a pause, he said confidently: "There is another example of Li Laiheng and Tian Jianxiu. I believe they will think that we all want to surrender. If what I expected was right, then Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and others might not be very good, but Tian Jianxiu is definitely very happy that someone will surrender!"

"That's right, the military advisor is right!" Li Zicheng immediately made a decision to comment on the plan, "This is a clever plan! I'm sure that Tian Jianxiu would definitely not be prepared, and he would like to surrender the more he would be better!"

After saying this, his face immediately became gloomy again, and he said with hatred: "This Tian Jianxiu must catch him. I will cut him into pieces!"

After Li Laiheng surrendered to the imperial army, he knew his brotherhood and was unwilling to fight against the powerful Jianlu. However, Tian Jianxiu came to dig up Li Zicheng's corner as soon as he surrendered. With his leading role, he had a great impact.

If Tian Jianxiu can be caught and killed to warn him, it will be much better than catching a thousand deserters to warn him.

Therefore, after Li Zicheng finished speaking with hatred, he immediately said to Song Xiance: "You will arrange this matter, the sooner the better. It is best to capture Tian Jianxiu's traitor alive. I want to cut it into pieces and then make his head into a urinal!"

As the people in the lobby heard, Li Zicheng repeatedly said that he wanted to cut Tian Jianxiu into pieces. This shows that Li Zicheng really hated Tian Jianxiu to the core.

In response, Song Xiance immediately responded: "Don't worry, General, if Tian Jianxiu is defeated, even if he escapes, Duke Xingguo will definitely not be able to forgive him! Haha, this is Duke Xingguo's first defeat, and he will definitely be angry!"

Naturally, they didn't know that Zhang Mingwei had actually lost one battle, and that was defeated by him when he sent a vanguard to pursue Zhang Xianzhong. And that time was actually similar to the strategy offered by Song Xiance, which also made Sun Kewang fake surrender and then attacked both inside and outside.

This time, Li Zicheng also came up with a similar strategy, which can be considered as "heroes have similar views"! But can this move always work?

At this time, no one knew about the thief in Sichuan.

After some discussion, Li Zicheng's countermeasures to deal with the public opinion war between the imperial government army were also taken.

However, because Tian Jianxiu's thick eyebrows and big eyes and seemingly reliable generals would rebel, Li Zicheng was a little worried and sternly warned everyone present not to leak any news.

Even after the meeting, Li Zicheng was still thinking about this. He was worried about his subordinates, and for some reason, he thought of the Jinyiwei.

"Do you want to do something similar to it yourself to monitor them?" Li Zicheng thought so, and this thought could not be suppressed immediately.

If such a group of men were watching him as his eyes, he would definitely find signs of betrayal. He Yijin and the others wanted to betray him, but they just secretly investigated him to monitor him!

So, if you really arrange some people to do this, you must not be called Jinyiwei, you must change your name!
