"The general is a little confused.
It seems that Uncle Jingnan has no part in suppressing the rebels and relieving the crisis in Dengzhou."
Now that Chen Liu had made up his mind, he was naturally not polite when he spoke, and pushed Huang Degong back with just one sentence.
"you" Huang Degongqi's beard trembled wildly.
He is the dignified Uncle Jingnan, and it's okay for a small camp to dare to ridicule him.
"Okay, the future life is scary."
Huang Degong sneered and said: "You mean, we came all the way from this town and led our troops here, and we can't even get a share of the credit."
"Uncle Jingnan is joking again.
Of course, credit goes to those who have merited it.
How come there is no such thing as sharing the credit?
Uncle Jingnan didn't make any contribution, so naturally he won't be able to share the credit."
Chen Liu was not polite at all and kept business matters in a matter-of-fact manner.
In fact, he also knows the rules of division of merit among generals.
Take Liao Zhen back then.
Yuan Chonghuan forcibly gave the credit that belonged to Man Gui to the Liaoxi general, which directly led to Man Gui's break with him.
For generals, the head is the greatest merit, and it can be directly exchanged for silver rewards, or even promoted to a higher rank.
Destroying a person's wealth is like killing his parents.
It is not surprising that Man Gui and Yuan Chonghuan had differences and eventually broke up over the issue of head distribution.
Huang Degong sneered: "Okay, okay, okay" He said three good words in a row, pointed at Chen Liu's nose with one hand and said, "Aren't you afraid that this town will take your book?"
"Chen has a clear conscience.
Uncle Jingnan, please do as you please."
Chen Liu said with a half-smile.
"Huh, Zhuzi doesn't agree with us.
Let's wait and see and withdraw the troops."
After saying that, Huang Degong turned his horse's head and walked away.
He originally thought that Chen Liu would give him some heads at some point, but who would have thought that this guy was inexperienced and ignorant at all, which made Huang Degong extremely lose face.
But no matter what, Huang Degong didn't want to have a conflict with Chen Liu at this time and follow the truth.
After all, the Tianqi Battalion is affiliated to the Shence Army, a new army organized and trained by the Emperor.
It would not be good if it ended up with the reputation of being domineering, arrogant and unruly.
But Huang Degong certainly couldn't swallow this breath.
He had decided to write a memorial to impeach Chen Liu and complain about his grievances.
I believe that the Holy Emperor will definitely give him an explanation The peaks and mountains are like clusters, the waves are like angry waves, and the mountains and rivers are like Tongguan Road inside and outside.
Tongguan, Shaanxi Province is located in the eastern part of the Guanzhong Plain and is the east gate of Guanzhong.
Because of its important geographical location, Tongguan has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.
Now Tongguan is in the hands of Li Zicheng, but the situation is a bit critical.
Duduo led the Eight Banners Army and the Han troops from Kong Youde's and Geng Zhongming's troops to the city, but did not immediately order the attack.
He is waiting for something crucial that can decide the victory: the red cannon.
It's just that the red cannon is too heavy and heavy, and it takes a lot of time to transport it from Taiyuan to Tongguan.
Duduo waited for ten days but did not see the red cannon.
In desperation, he could only order an attack on Tongguan.
Because if we continue like this, the morale of the military may change.
The Shun army did not occupy the city and did not leave.
Instead, they sent Liu Fangliang and others out of the city to fight with the Qing army in the field.
Unfortunately, they did not gain any advantage.
Li Zicheng was unwilling to give up and personally led the infantry and cavalry out of the border to attack the Qing army's camp, but was also frustrated.

It was not until 20 days after Duduo's army arrived at Tongguan that the red cannon finally arrived.
Duduo was overjoyed and ordered the entire army to attack the city.
The gunners fired off their cannons one after another.
Under the fierce bombardment of the red cannon, the Shun army at the head of Tongguan City was overwhelmed and temporarily lost their combat effectiveness.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Qing army launched a general attack on Tongguan.
The Han troops of the Eight Banners rushed to the front pushing the strong shield chariots used for siege, while the Han troops of the Manchu Eight Banners, Kong Youde, and Geng Zhongming followed behind.
From the moment he saw the red cannon, Li Zicheng's heart felt cold.
The power of this thing is extraordinary.
Although Tongguan City is extremely strong, it is still unclear whether it can withstand the fierce bombardment of the red cannon.
After all, not long ago, the equally strong Taiyuan City was destroyed because the red cannon opened the city wall.
Even if the city wall of Tongguan cannot be directly blasted to open a gap, the crenellations and towers on the city wall certainly cannot be saved.
It's hard to imagine what kind of threat the men on the city would face without the protection of the crenellations.
It didn't take long for Li Zicheng's worries to become a reality.
Under the firepower suppression of the Qing army, the Shun army was completely unable to implement the defense deployment.
They all hugged their heads and lay on the ground to prevent themselves from being hurt by the arrows and broken stones fired by the Qing army.
The Qing army had a large number of red cannons.
Although the inner walls of the cannons had to be washed with cold water to cool down each time they bombarded them, they could bombard them in turn, creating the effect of uninterrupted fire suppression.
Even so, Li Zicheng did not want to give up Tongguan easily.
Because the significance of Tongguan is so important.
Tongguan is the east gate of Guanzhong.
If Tongguan is lost, Xi'an will definitely not be able to hold it.
No matter how many red cannons the Qing army had, they couldn't bombard the city wall endlessly.
In addition, the Qing army marched all the way to Tongguan, so they definitely didn't bring much food and grass.
Twenty days had passed and they were probably running out of food.
Li Zicheng decided to wait.
When the Qing army ran out of ammunition and food, it was time to turn the situation around.
But what Li Zicheng was waiting for was bad news.
Another group of Qing troops, led by Azig, bypassed Yan'an and Yulin and went directly south to Xi'an.
Originally, Azige led the Eight Banners Army and Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi and other Han troops to attack Yan'an and Yulin.
However, they encountered firm resistance from Gao Yigong and Li Guo who stayed behind, and it was difficult to break the city for a while.
At Wu Sangui's suggestion, Azig ordered Datong's general Jiang Yang and other Ming Dynasty surrendered generals to lead their troops to continue the attack on the city to contain the main forces of Gao Yigong and Li Guo.
He himself led the army southward to take Xi'an.
Li Zicheng was shocked.
His original plan was that he, Liu Zongmin, and Liu Fangliang would defend Tongguan, while Li Guo and Gao Yigong would defend northern Shaanxi.
In this way, the two armies can just match the armies of Dodo and Azig.
Who would have thought that Azige would suddenly divide his troops and march directly to Xi'an?
Normally, he wouldn't be so panicked, but it was different now.
In order to defend Tongguan, Li Zicheng deployed almost all the main forces stationed in Xi'an.
Today, Xi'an is a complete empty city.
Not to mention Azig's army, even a random army might be able to capture Xi'an.
Li Zicheng fell silent for a moment.
For him, the situation is now between a rock and a hard place.
If Tongguan is abandoned, Guanzhong will be lost sooner or later.
If we stick to Tongguan, Xi'an will be the first to be defeated.
The question now seems to be whether to destroy Tongguan first or Xi'an first.

Once Guanzhong is lost, it will be of no use even if northern Shaanxi is still in the hands of Li Guo and Gao Yigong.
With the north and south blocked, it would be difficult for Li Zicheng to lead his army to join Li Guo and Gao Yigong.
After a painful decision, Li Zicheng finally decided to give up Shaanxi.
He only left Wushan Bo Ma Shiyao to lead 7,000 troops to garrison Tongguan, while he, Liu Zongmin, Liu Fangliang and others led the army to Xi'an overnight
