Li Zicheng looked at Luo Rucai and did not speak for the time being. He didn't know what Luo Rucai said, but under the current circumstances, he always had to find a way, otherwise he would just wait to die.

"Since the King of Chuang came to ask me, I will express my actual thoughts."

After all, Luo Rucai has led troops to fight for many years and has very rich experience. In this regard, Li Zicheng is not as good as him.

"It is definitely not possible for the rebel army to continue to stay in Hanzhong Prefecture. According to the current government's practice, Shaanxi Province will not take long for a complete change. It can be said that in this process of change, the rebel army will lose its foothold, so the rebel army must leave Hanzhong and Shaanxi."

"I know the king of Chuang is reluctant to leave. After all, the rebel army was born here. Thinking about the uprising in Yan'an Prefecture, it has been almost ten years in a flash, and it is hard to forget."

Luo Rucai said such words made Li Zicheng feel a little uncomfortable. After all, Li Zicheng was not the founder of the Rebel Army. He joined the Rebel Army in the third year of Chongzhen. He followed Gao Yingxiang to fight south and north. Among the many leaders who joined the Rebel Army at the beginning, he would always be a junior.

Luo Rucai didn't care about Li Zicheng's attitude at all.

"Now that the rebel army is facing the greatest danger, we must have the courage to cut off our arm. We must leave Hanzhong Prefecture, Shaanxi, and Sichuan."

"Why did Brother Luo recommend going to Sichuan?"

"Don't worry, I'll analyze it for you now. We can go to Shanxi, which is also a place we are very familiar with, but we can go to Shanxi. The brothers of the rebel army will unconsciously think of the Eight Great Kings (Zhang Xianzhong), and this shadow will always exist. The Eight Great Kings led 50,000 soldiers and were completely wiped out by the Jiangning Camp. This battle is not only the failure of the Eight Great Kings, but also makes the soldiers of the Shanxi Guard not particularly afraid of our Rebel army."

"We can also go to Henan, but we can't avoid Henan Prefecture. I once heard from my brothers that the situation in Henan Prefecture has greatly improved. The soldiers of the local inspection department are extremely fierce. The local people will fight desperately in order to protect their own wealth. Therefore, the rebel army should not go to Henan for the time being during the strategic transfer."

"The rest is Sichuan. Sichuan is also a place with few mountains and people, and the terrain is dangerous. As long as we pay attention at all times, we will be able to persist in Sichuan and gradually strengthen our own strength in this process. I believe that as long as we can persist, we will always have a chance to make a comeback."

Li Zicheng shook his head.

"Brother Luo, I admit that what you said makes sense. But Jiangning Camp has always existed. If Jiangning Camp attacks us, the ending will be unpredictable. I used to not care about any imperial army, but I was really worried about Jiangning Camp."

A smile appeared on Luo Rucai's face.

"The King of Chuang, Jiangning Camp does exist, but as long as we can endure it, Jiangning Camp will soon leave Shaanxi."

Li Zicheng stared at Luo Rucai, not very clear.

"How could Jiangning Camp be so brave, so how could it be idle for a long time? If we left Shaanxi and entered Sichuan, and temporarily settled in a place with few mountain people, wouldn't Jiangning Camp lose its opponent? The emperor in the court was most worried about was probably not us, but the Later Jin in the north."

Li Zicheng immediately understood.

"Brother Luo, what you mean is that we will move to Sichuan and be quiet for the time being. Under such circumstances, Shaanxi will be stable, and the court will definitely let Jiangning camp go to Liaodong to deal with the Tartars."

Luo Rucai nodded with a smile.

"Yes, why didn't I expect that Jiangning Camp left Shaanxi and went to deal with the Tartars. In that case, wouldn't it be better for us to return to Shaanxi again?"

"Yes, this is the best countermeasure. Shaanxi has changed, and it's no big deal. Sichuan has not changed. We can go to Sichuan to overcome the difficulties. I have another suggestion."

Li Zicheng really admires Luo Rucai's judgment.

"Brother Luo has any suggestions, just say it."

"The rebel army will definitely encounter some difficulties. This is normal. As long as we survive this period, everything will be fine. If the rebel army enters Sichuan, the King of Chuang must not be stingy with money. Even if we take out the money and bribe the local government, we can survive well. We have done this method before. Don't look at the court sending officials to be responsible for the arrangement of the four provinces to wipe out the rebel army. In fact, it does not have much effect. All we have to do is to defeat each of them with money."

Li Zicheng nodded frequently, and this idea was also very good.

Li Zicheng was very excited to get a good plan from Luo Rucai, but he was not a woman's mentality, and a temporary move would change his strategy. Leaders such as Luo Rucai still needed to be under house arrest. Only after she completely grasped the command of the rebel army, these people could gain limited freedom.

Seeing Li Zicheng stand up and ready to leave, Luo Ru finally spoke out the last thing.

"King of Chuang, there is something I have always wanted to say, okay, since I have spoken, I will say it all."

Li Zicheng stood opposite and looked at Luo Rucai.

"There are currently 150,000 rebels. This team is too large. Eating, drinking, defecating and urinating requires a lot of expenses. We are about to leave Shaanxi. If the team cannot be streamlined, the possibility of survival is still very small."

Li Zicheng looked serious and looked at Luo Rucai. He needed to explain that the traditions of the rebel army in history were that the larger the team, the better, and he had never thought that the number of people needed to be reduced.

Seeing that Li Zicheng's expression was wrong, Luo Rucai became a little depressed.

"I have already said what I should say. How to decide is the matter of King Chuang. OK, I need to rest too."

Li Zicheng realized that his attitude was wrong, and Luo Rucai had already made an accurate analysis. There was no need to doubt his loyalty. After all, Luo Rucai's efforts were included in the rebel army.

"Brother Luo, don't be angry. If you have any ideas, just say it out loud, I will just listen. This is a matter of reducing personnel. Please explain it to me, so I can do it."

Luo Rucai hesitated for a moment.

"It is necessary to reduce personnel, just retain capable forces. My suggestion is to reduce the team to less than 100,000 people. If possible, it would be good to retain 50,000 people."

Li Zicheng's face changed slightly.

"When the rebels were mostly locals in Shaanxi. Even if they were not as good as food and grass, they could help the villagers. However, when they went to Sichuan, they were not familiar with the place and were completely unfamiliar with the environment. Everything depends on themselves, so it is definitely a burden if there are too many people."

"Secondly, after more people, the rebel army will still attract the attention of the court. We have greatly abolished personnel and showed weakness to the court. I believe that some officials will be excited and reduce their attention to us, so that we can win time and slowly accumulate strength. In this process, the court will also reduce the attacks on us."

"In the end, I thought that the 50,000 or even 100,000 people who were laid off would not be able to leave Shaanxi. It would still be a burden to Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Camp. He always had to support so many people. If they were not done well, these people would still cause trouble if they had any objections, which could also make Su Tiancheng uneasy."

"These brothers have followed us for a long time. Even if they stay in Shaanxi and Hanzhong for the time being, once the time is right, we can continue to recruit them into the team."

For three consecutive days, a large number of officers gathered in Li Zicheng's house. As for what these people are discussing, it is impossible for the soldiers below to know.

It was late December, and the Spring Festival was about to come. At this time, the rebel army suddenly had abnormal movements.

Some people began to divert quietly, but most people didn't know it yet and were encouraged.

On December 24th, when the Chinese New Year was celebrated on the lunar calendar, many soldiers were frightened to find that the officers were gone and the King of Rebellion was gone. They were in a state of headless dragons.

More sergeants chose to go home, and some sergeants continued to stay where they were.

Su Tiancheng already knew the news.

When the bandits moved to Sichuan, he was reluctant to do so. Fighting always suffered losses. Shaanxi has not yet stabilized. The people were doubtful and afraid of policy changes. The rich gentry and wealthy families were unwilling to accept it. They were unwilling to accept it. It can be said that there were fluctuations on both sides. At this time, it was a foolish choice to conquer the bandits in Jiangning camp.

Li Zicheng moved to Sichuan with the bandits, and Su Tiancheng got rid of his worries. As for the suppression of bandits in Shaanxi, it was not a big problem. As long as there was no harassment from bandits, he could manage Shaanxi with peace of mind. I will talk about the rest later.

A large number of bandits were stranded in the Hanzhong Prefecture area, and Li Zicheng took away not many soldiers. This is a very strange phenomenon. However, after a little thought, Su Tiancheng understood the interests.

Su Tiancheng needs time, and bandits also need time, but the preparations of both sides are different. They each have their own wishful thinking. The bandits are unwilling to face the Jiangning Camp, but the Jiangning Camp always wants to wipe out the bandits.

On this point, Luo Rucai and Li Zicheng's analysis was wrong. They thought that showing weakness could make the court careless and that Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Camp could not notice it. Unfortunately, they did not know that Su Tiancheng was a time traveler and fully understood the principle of raising tigers. As long as the opportunity was ripe, the first thing they thought about was to stabilize the internal situation. From this aspect, Li Zicheng could not escape the duel with Jiangning Camp.

The news spread quickly. Just as the Spring Festival was approaching, news came out in all parts of Shaanxi. The bandits completely collapsed because they were afraid of the Jiangning Camp. The leader and the leader fled and left the soldiers behind. From this moment on, the bandits no longer existed.
