After this period of operation, the entire Shaanxi was completely out of control by the government, but instead occupied many cities by many anti-army leaders. Xianyang was at the hands of the anti-army all the way. The leader of the anti-army army had a nickname called Shen Yikui, who was the best at fighting, but was also very loyal and respected by other uprisingers. Gao Yingxiang and Wang Jiayin also had concerns about each other because of the previous events. Now with Shen Yikui's guarantee, it is not too difficult for the two to meet.

Despite this, this kind of defense is still indispensable. When the two arrived in Xianyang to meet, they brought thousands of people, and when they entered Xianyang, they were even more surrounded by hundreds of guards. In the original Xianyang government office, the two finally met again. When they saw that the other party brought so many people, Gao and Wang were a little embarrassed. [bsp;    It was Shen Yikui who spoke first to break the embarrassment in front of him: "Both, we are all rebels. If you have any holidays or misunderstandings before, you can spread it out and explain it clearly when you meet today. Only then can we join the front line."

"Brother Shen Yikui said it." Wang Jiayin nodded and said, "Then I will make it clear today. When the official army sent troops to attack me that day, he passed by your city, King Gao Chuang, why didn't you stop it? If we hadn't believed you at that time, our brothers would not have been completely guarded and were eventually defeated by the official army."

Gao Yingxiang sighed: "Brother Wang, I'm sorry for you. I did have an agreement with you to fight against the government army together, but I didn't expect to fall into the gap between the government army, which led to them taking advantage of loopholes." As he said that, Hong Chengchou was captured by himself that day, and then found out the court's letter to Wang Jiayin from him and explained in detail: "Because I was worried that you had surrendered to the court, I was afraid that once I went out of the city to attack the government army, I hesitated for a moment, and eventually led to... Alas, after you were attacked by the government army, I also sent people, but was blocked by the government army there, and finally had to give up. And you should know that I didn't defend in Hancheng for a long time, and it was also considered to be a self-inflicted."

"Hmph, if you were willing to work together with me, why would this be like this?" Wang Jiayin still said angrily.

"But there was something I didn't understand at that time. I was also a little suspicious of the information I received, so I specially ordered someone to meet you, Brother Wang, and wanted to ask you to guard Hancheng with me, but I refused it. This was also the foundation of my lies later. But I didn't know why Brother Wang refused to come into the city at the beginning? As long as we enter Hancheng, with the strength of our two armies, we will be enough to fight with the official army, and Brother Wang's men will not be attacked by the official army." Gao Yingxiang thought of the past and asked.

"This..." Wang Jiayin felt a little embarrassed. At the beginning, he was afraid that he would annex Gao Yingxiang after entering the city. After all, there was still a big gap in strength between the two sides at that time, but this cannot be raised in front of Gao Yingxiang now.

Seeing his embarrassed look, Gao Yingxiang immediately guessed the reason. He disagreed and said, "It turns out that I'm not worried about you. You are also guarding against me. What else are you talking about!"

"You..." Seeing him talking like this, Wang Jiayin was also angry and was about to retort, but was stopped by Shen Yikui: "Okay, two brothers, we are all people on the same boat, why both of us are hurting the harmony for such a little past? Now that we have something wrong with both sides. As long as we can sit down and talk calmly, what can't be solved? Now our biggest enemy is the imperial army. When we should unite, we must not hurt the harmony again."

"Hmph!" Both of them hummed low, then nodded and said, "Okay, let's hear from Brother Shen Yikui."

"That's right? We are all gangsters in the world. Don't ruin big things for a little thing. Okay, let's talk about cooperation after this level." Shen Yikui laughed and said, "Now the government army is powerful, and they have completely controlled all the places in Shanxi. I believe they will use troops against the Shaanxi we control in a few days. Do you think it's right?"

"Of course, the person who led the troops was still our old opponent. Since he had pacified Shanxi, he would definitely not let us go. That day, I resolutely gave up the territory there and retreated my troops to Shaanxi because I knew I could not take advantage of Shanxi at all," Gao Yingxiang nodded.

Wang Jiayin also said: "Yes, that man named Tang Feng is indeed a good player in military use. After all, there are more than 100,000 troops in Shanxi, but he easily defeated him. It seems that we must be able to get up to 120,000 points to deal with him."

"Not only do we have to be strong and we must work together!" Shen Yikui said again: "We have already grasped the situation in Shanxi. Although Liu Guoneng and others are working together, they still found a loophole and easily took the Taiyuan, thus taking the initiative. If we do not repeat the same mistakes, we must fully trust other brothers and join forces to fight the official army. In this regard, the two of us declared the biggest figure among the many rebels in Shaanxi to set an example. Everyone is watching you two."

Gao and Wang looked at each other, then nodded at the same time: "Brother Shen Yikui said that in this situation, we can't be more impatient. We have already taught a lesson, and we should find a way to avoid it now."

"Okay, let's talk about cooperation now." Shen Yikui said as he unfolded a topographic map of a province in Shaanxi. These things are objects in the government government offices in Shaanxi. After the government was driven away, they naturally became things for these thieves. As an ambitious and capable thief, he must know how to use these.

Pointing to the terrain and cities in Shaanxi, Shen Yikui and Gao and Wang carefully discussed how to fight against the government army, where to give up, where to defend, and where to ambush people. They all conducted repeated research. Unlike the anti-army in Shanxi, they did not dare to take the government army lightly at all. This was certainly because of Tang Feng's continuous victory in Shanxi, but the previous consecutive defeats of Wang Jiayin and Gao Yingxiang were the most critical.

At the same time, Chongzhen from Beijing finally saw the memorial sent by Tang Wenzheng for the first time. These were memorials written by Tang Feng, but they only recorded how the official army fought bravely and pacified Shanxi. It was similar to the good news sent by Tang Feng the previous one. This made Chongzhen frown after reading it: "What did Tang Wenzheng do? In addition to helping Tang Feng manage military affairs, he also had to pay attention to some other things. Why did he report such things that have been known to everyone?"

After reading the report repeatedly, Chongzhen threw it on the table. Suspiciously, he quickly came up with a view, could it be that Tang Wenzheng was bribed by Tang Feng? Because of Wei Zhongxian's various actions in the past, Chongzhen distrusts the eunuchs from the bottom of his heart. Although sometimes some things are done by these people who have no children and have no worries, Chongzhen still cannot be completely relieved of them.

After thinking about this, Chongzhen immediately became suspicious of Tang Feng. If Tang Feng really bribed Tang Wenzheng, then what was he doing? Could it be that he really had some other thoughts and was afraid of being noticed by himself? Although he had already had a lot of suspicion about Tang Feng, he was only suspicious until now and had not been proposed by others. After all, Tang Feng was the most critical point for the Ming Dynasty to be stable. But now things seem a little wrong, which makes Chongzhen even more suspicious. If Tang Feng, a minister who holds military power in his hand and is highly respected, had his throne really unstable.

"No, I can't just be kept in the dark by them! I must send some people to grasp everything that happened there, otherwise..." After walking back and forth for a while, Chongzhen finally made up his mind. But now he can't completely trust the ministers in the court, so he can only follow the old path of his ancestors and use eunuchs to open the East Factory.

Since Tang Feng wiped out the East Factory a few years ago while eliminating the eunuch party, the most terrifying spy agency in the Ming Dynasty has stopped setting up. Now, in order to prevent Tang Feng from having any strange intentions, Chongzhen finally decided to set up another East Factory. Only a team of spies that belonged only to him can Chongzhen truly grasp everything outside and not be afraid that someone would covet his position.

As soon as he made a quick decision, Chongzhen immediately called Deng Xishao, the eunuch who had been with him, and issued an order to him: "I want to reopen the East Factory. Now I hope you can help you take on the heavy responsibility. Just find the manpower and other things from the palace first."

After hearing what the emperor said, Deng Xishao was overjoyed and quickly agreed: "Don't worry, your Majesty, I will definitely get everything done." He knew very well that the situation of these people in the palace was now, and that was all because of the lack of the backing of the East Factory. Now that the emperor agreed to reopen the East Factory, they finally had hope again.

"Go, remember not to let others know until things are done."

In Taiyuan, Shanxi, Tang Feng didn't know that his move would make the emperor more suspicious of him. He thought that with the memorial of Tang Wenzheng, the military supervisor, speaking, the emperor would no longer have doubts about him. So in the past two days, he had been planning how to further send troops to Shaanxi. He knew very well that Gao Yingxiang and others there would only be more difficult to deal with than the anti-army in Shanxi. Not only because they had previous experience in rebelling, but they were already extremely familiar with every mountain and water there, which was far from comparable to the newly-entered troops of the Liaodong Army. However, he also had confidence that with the combat power of this Liaodong Army, he would definitely defeat these anti-army troops.

Before this, what Tang Feng had to do was to collect more information about the anti-militaries in Shaanxi so as to use targeted troops against them. This required the efforts of the spies of the Jinyiwei and the scouts in the army, so he had been holding his troops in the past few days and continued to be in Taiyuan City, just because the information in Shaanxi had not yet arrived.

It has already entered Mayday and the weather has gradually become hotter. Tang Feng walked around Taiyuan City for a while and was already sweating slightly. Looking at the fireball above his head, Tang Feng's thoughts returned to his own home in the capital. He didn't know how his wife and children were doing. Do they miss themselves in this early summer?

Just as he was thinking of his family in a daze, Zhang Tai walked over quickly: "Marty, the capital has an order."

"Let's go, see if the court has issued another order." Tang Feng quickly walked out of his thoughts, turned around and came to his temporary headquarters. In fact, after he sent out the good news, he had been waiting for the court's reply. It was not until now that even Tang Wenzheng's memorial was sent, the court made some expressions, which made Tang Feng feel a little uncomfortable.

The meaning of the imperial edict was not beyond Tang Feng's expectations. In addition to commending the Liaodong official army that quelled the rebellion in Shanxi, it was urging them to continue to serve the country and calm the chaos in Shaanxi as soon as possible. However, this reward was very insufficient. It was just that some official promotions did not have the material rewards needed by the soldiers, which made the soldiers feel uncomfortable.

In fact, Tang Feng understood very well that this was just that the court was unable to bear all this. Under years of internal and external wars and even more serious natural disasters, the treasury was completely empty. Although the tax revenue has improved a little because of God's eyes, it is not enough to put the Ming Dynasty's economy on the right track.

In fact, to be honest, Tang Feng still thinks that this was caused by the conservative conservatives of the imperial officials. As long as he was willing to ban the vast coastal cities in the south and thus impose a large amount of taxes, why worry that the imperial court had no money to raise troops to quell the chaos? However, this is not the final word for him, a marquis who can only lead troops, and the concept that he has developed for a long time is not something that can be recognized by Suzhou's profits. In addition to sighing, Tang Feng could only seize greater power according to his previous ideas and use extraordinary means to further realize his ideals and revitalize the ideals of the Ming Dynasty.

However, all this is still empty talk for now. If you want to completely win the morale of the army, you have to take them to quell the Shaanxi rebellion and give the soldiers more benefits. This time, he compared the scores of Shanxi with the soldiers, but the court was reluctant to reward them. The soldiers' views had obviously changed, and this was not something that the emperor could replace.

After receiving the imperial edict, Tang Feng promoted the tent again and recruited generals to discuss the issue of sending troops to Shaanxi. Since the imperial edict had already been urged, although some of the scouts there had not returned, Tang Feng decided to send troops. After opening up a certain situation, he would target Gao Yingxiang and others.

After this unified thinking, the official army moved again. In addition to leaving some people to continue to clear the remaining rebels in Shanxi, more than 20,000 Liaodong Army, plus more than 30,000 strong men selected from the surrendered anti-army, formed a 50,000 army and headed straight to Shaanxi.

After this period of rest, not only did the Liaodong army recover to its best condition, but the anti-army army also began to obey orders. This was also because Tang Feng's strategy was appropriate. He not only did not look down on or abuse these anti-army army, but also gave them full respect, and at the same time, the money was also distributed to these surrendered troops.

The reason why these anti-army rebelled was because they could not live a life. Now Tang Feng could meet their most basic requirements, and of course these anti-army would not be in love with him again. At the same time, Tang Feng took advantage of this period to find the family members of these anti-army and settled them in various parts of Shanxi. In this way, these anti-army had more worries and became more determined to go to war. Therefore, after taking down Shanxi, Tang Feng's troops not only did not decrease, but increased by tens of thousands. Although their combat power could not be compared with the Liaodong Army, they were not weaker than ordinary anti-army. Even because of their more formal leadership, they were even better than other anti-army.

This time, he went to Shaanxi to use these newly surrendered men as the vanguard. Their main general was used to Wu Sangui who took the lead. When he attacked Taiyuan City the last time, he took off the city without exerting his strength, so this time he was full of energy to kill the last time. Tang Feng was very understanding of his idea, so he asked him to be the vanguard, with two thousand Liaodong Army and 20,000 anti-army under his command, and he led other troops to follow closely behind.

On the third day of the fifth month, Tang Feng's army began to advance into Shaanxi, and at the same time, it was soon discovered by the anti-army in Shaanxi that a great war began again. Among these anti-army in Shaanxi, in addition to being cautious and familiar with Tang Feng, many of them did not take the official army seriously. After learning that the official army pacified Shanxi and went straight into Shaanxi, they were ready to move.

Wu Sangui had only entered the Shaanxi territory for less than a day and had already met several anti-army troops and fought several battles. Although these invading enemies could not hurt them at all, it also made him feel inconsistent. Although those anti-army troops could not take advantage of the official army, they could quickly retreat with the familiarity of the terrain as long as they were defeated. The men and horses under him were not completely elite Liaodong soldiers. Although they could firmly gain the upper hand, they did not dare to pursue them too much. In the end, Wu Sangui had no choice but to sulk.

In this way, we must not only march but also beware of the local anti-army raid. Finally, Wu Sangui finally led his troops to Hancheng, and the official army came to Hancheng again.

Now Hancheng is no longer the focus of the anti-army. Now Gao Yingxiang and others have occupied more important cities, such as Xi'an or Xianyang. They naturally won't take this small city like Hancheng seriously. Now Hancheng's people are a thief named Cao Shangfei. He also has thousands of people under his command, which actually allows him to take advantage of such a city.

However, he did not have the intention to defend himself now. In addition to the terrifying pressure from the official army outside the city, he also received a letter from Xi'an, which was Gao Yingxiang and other famous anti-army leaders in Shaanxi advised him to give up Hancheng and lure the official army into the trap of him and others.

It turned out that Cao Shangfei would not agree, but under the threat of the official army outside the city, he had to make a decision to obey his orders.

Outside the city, Wu Sanguiquan did not expect the enemy to abandon the city and leave under this situation. He was defeated by these thousands of people at night, but he finally took down the first city in Shaanxi, which was also an explanation to the above. At the same time, this greatly enhanced his confidence, thinking that the counter-army was vulnerable, and continued to lead troops to kill west early the next morning.

At this time, Tang Feng, who was in Shanxi, also led the central army into the Shaanxi territory...
