Li Chun and several generals led their troops to see them off, and many relatives and friends sent them out of the capital.

But Li Luan'er walked quietly, she turned into an ordinary woman, and took a team of people who were disguised as merchants and nurses to board a merchant ship and set off from Tianjin Port, and walked along the coastline for about ten days to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, from where she found an inconspicuous place to land in a small boat, and then made up again.

This time, I bought some horses that went out day and night, and they seemed to be slow, but the speed of the march was not slow at all.

After walking for about ten days, and hearing a lot of news, I ran all night until dawn and finally saw a small city, and a group of people pretended to be a caravan and entered the city, and then found a clean inn to rest.

After settling down, Li Luan'er asked everyone to disperse, and a few people went out to the food stall outside to find local specialties, Li Luan'er and two soldiers found a table in the inn and ordered porridge and xiaolongbao, as well as a few side dishes for breakfast.

In addition to staying overnight, this inn also does some breakfast business, not only steaming steamed buns when you get up in the morning, but also sells baked cakes.

Before the buns were served, they smelled the fragrance of the baked cakes, so Li Luan'er ordered a few more baked cakes, and saw that there were already people standing up in front of the stall selling the baked cakes, so she felt that the food in this house must taste good.

After a while, the men in the store served breakfast, and Li Luan'er beckoned the two soldiers to eat and drink, and after a few bites of food, he saw an old man in a robe of about fifty or sixty years old walking in slowly, sat down by the door, and beckoned the men in the store to get him some eight-treasure porridge and baked cakes.

The guy promised to go about his work. The young man who also came to look for breakfast came over to greet the old man: "Fifth grandfather, you are really strange today." How did you get out early in the morning? ”

The old man smiled: "The previous child's body was not very good, didn't he just come out and shake in a few days." ”

"Look. I have not heard of it, but if I did, I would have visited you. The young man smiled and clapped a few words.

The fifth grandfather also knew that people were kind words, and promised a few words not to urge the guy to serve breakfast earlier, the young man found a nearby seat and sat down, and asked the fifth grandfather with a smile: "I heard that the court has sent troops to quell the rebellion, the fifth grandfather, you are the most well-informed, can you tell us about the possibility of the rebellion of the king?" ”

"Reckless, and eat a few bites of food first." The fifth grandfather glared at the young man and waited for the guy to come over.

As soon as Li Luan'er heard the words of these two people, she immediately paid attention. A soldier next to her whispered, "I don't know what the situation of the generals is now?" Did you repel the Liuwang tribe? But Wan Mo told them to cross the Yangtze River. ”

Li Luan'er was also a little worried, but said in her mouth: "Don't worry, the soldiers sent by the court are all soldiers of a hundred battles, and those who have seen blood on the battlefield are comparable to those who stay in the king." ”

She just said it here, the guy had already brought food to the fifth grandfather, and the fifth grandfather drank a few mouthfuls of porridge and smiled: "Speaking of which, the front is really dangerous." ”

"Listen." Li Luan'er motioned for the two soldiers to be safe, and then paid attention while eating.

"How dangerous?" The young man asked in surprise, "Nothing is going on." You always talk to us. ”

The fifth grandfather smiled, took a bite of small pickles and said, "What else?" This time, the king rebelled and sent troops quickly, and the court was caught off guard, and when the court received the war report and transferred troops to prepare for the battlefield, the army of the king had already hit the Yangtze River. After the Yangtze River, it is not so easy to retreat from the enemy. ”

Li Luan'er nodded when she heard this: "What this old man said is reasonable. ”

"Did the king of Liuwang cross the river?" A few other guests also asked.

The fifth grandfather shook his head and was a little proud: "Who knows, after all, a few days ago, I got the news that the court and the king are in a stalemate on both sides of the Yangtze River, and now I don't know how." However, I am afraid that it will not be possible to keep the king. ”

"Why?" The young man was very surprised: "The official family is mediocre. Over the years, the king has recruited troops and horses in his territory, and it is said that there is enough money and food. And the people also supported him, so he ...... it."

The fifth grandfather took a peanut and threw it into his mouth, took two bites, shook his head and sighed: "In the end, you are young, where do you know the joints, let's talk to you in detail, since ancient times, the official family has been paying attention to the right name, the official family has been sitting on the dragon chair for many years, and now most of the ministers in the DPRK and China are the confidants of the official, and they naturally support the official family, and furthermore, that is, the official family has sat on the dragon chair, his name is right, as long as the people are not extraordinarily unable to get by, they will not think about rebellion, and whoever wants to rebel will have to bear the infamy, which is this, The king is at a disadvantage. ”

Speaking of this, the fifth grandfather paused and smiled: "Moreover, the court is also full of soldiers and food, and the court governs a vast territory, leaving the king only in Jiangxi Province, and rebelling against the central government with a place is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. ”

After the fifth grandfather finished speaking, he snorted and drank the porridge, but the people who listened to him fell silent, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his words were very reasonable.

Li Luan'er smiled: "Interesting, this old man's knowledge is good." ”

After saying this, Li Luan'er was a little worried: "According to what he said, it is not easy for the court's army to cross the river now, and the army of the king also wants to cross the Yangtze River, but I don't know what the situation is, whether my brother is good or not." ”

Li Luan'er was really worried about Li Chun, Li Chun was too straightforward, she was afraid that the enemy army would be cunning and Li Chun would be fooled.

Only now Li Luan'er, who is extremely worried, is sitting in the tent with Ma Tao to discuss things.

Li Chun and Ma Tao led the Chinese army and the western army respectively, and now that the two armies can't cross the river, they naturally want to be together.

Sitting with them is also a general named Wu Peng of the water army, this Wu Peng is a general, in the early years in Dongting for water pirates, Dongting 800 miles of water is his world, only later he fell into trouble, just rescued by the first emperor, Wu Peng thanked the first emperor for his kindness and took his brothers to surrender, since then it has become a regular water army of the court. Now that the official family is attacking the king, they transferred Wu Peng's naval army to help the court army cross the river.

Ma Tao sat in the middle and looked at Wu Peng: "General Wu has any way." The army of the king was left on the river, and the ships were strong and the guns were sharp. If we can't bear them, when will we be able to cross the river, the longer this day drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to the court. ”

Wu Peng frowned and was also embarrassed: "General Ma, where do I have any way, if I had a way to lead the army to fuck him earlier, I would have to wait until now." ”

Li Chun patted his head and whispered, "If my sister-in-law and brother-in-law are afraid, there is a way." ”

"Well, you're an afterthought." Ma Tao laughed: "I know that your sister must be uncome, so I said so." Isn't that coveting us? ”

As he spoke, he heard the sound of cannons outside, and Ma Tao hurriedly left the camp, but saw that the Liuwang Department on the south bank had transferred a few red-clothed cannons to bombard here.

"Grandma's." Ma Tao was angry when he saw it, and he ordered someone to transfer the cannon on his side: "Beat Lao Tzu hard, damn, Lao Tzu is not powerful and Lao Tzu is easy to bully." ”

"It's not a thing, if you only have cannons, our cannons are much more powerful than yours." Wu Peng took a sip and scolded.

Followed by. The cannon began to bombard, and after a while, the movement on the side of the king was much quieter.

Ma Tao laughed: "Dog, this time I know how powerful your grandfather Ma is." ”

After a while. There was no movement at all in the king's place.

Ma Tao and Wu Peng laughed, and Li Chun said loudly: "Keep beating and pressing them." Do not tell them to fire again. ”

"Yes." Ma Tao also ordered loudly: "Suppress their artillery fire, let's think of crossing the river." ”

Only his voice fell. I saw that the king of Liuwang on the south bank raised a big banner with Qin Chao, the emperor of the Dayong Dynasty, written on it......

"Stop......" Ma Tao's face changed. He cursed loudly, but he no longer asked anyone to fire.

But the king of Keliu fired cannons again, and there were boats that clearly intended to cross the river.

At this time, Ma Tao was completely anxious, and Wu Peng also stood on the shore and turned around urgently.

Li Chun grabbed his hair and asked Ma Tao: "General Ma, why don't you open fire, if we don't move, the people who stay in the king will cross the river, and it will be difficult for them to cross the river." ”

Ma Tao glanced at Li Chun, and secretly wondered in his heart that Uncle Li Guo's unclear mind was a big fool, but in the past few days, the soldiers have discussed things with each other, and although he has not said much, he has been on point, and he is not stupid to look at, and what he said just now, where can a fool say it.

Not only Ma Tao Nahan, but also Wu Peng found it strange.

Ma Tao looked at the banner that the other party was carrying, suppressed his anger and explained to Li Chun: "King Liuwang is today's uncle, and they are all the bloodlines of Emperor Taizu...... is fighting Emperor Taizu, not to mention us, even if we are here today, we don't dare. ”

"Emperor Taizu?" Li Chun thought for a while before he suddenly understood: "Oh! I know, this Emperor Taizu is the grandfather of the official family, and the king of Liuwang has put the tablet on the ancestor of the official family, if we open fire, it will be disrespectful. ”

"Yes." Ma Tao nodded, and frowned again: "It's really a sinister villain, he actually came up with this kind of trick, and he has the ability to fight with your grandfather." ”

Wu Peng also said: "How is this good, we don't dare to shoot, they will ......."

Li Chun said while pondering: "The grandfather of the official family is placed there, and the elders are pressing the younger generations, so naturally they don't dare to fight......

Suddenly, Li Chun raised his head and asked Ma Tao, "General Ma, who is Emperor Taizu's father?" ”

Ma Tao smiled: "Emperor Taizu's background is not very good, his ancestors are all ordinary people, it is said that Emperor Taizu's biological father also begged for food back then, so naturally the name is not very good, called Qin Gouzi." ”

"What about Emperor Taizu's grandfather?" Li Chun asked again.

"It seems to be called...... Qin Ba's. Wu Peng hurriedly replied.

Li Chun smiled: "It is naturally impossible for a grandson to beat his grandfather, so it is not possible for a son to beat his father, Emperor Taizu has a father, a grandfather and a grandfather, so why don't we follow the king to learn ......."

Li Chun's words were not wrong, Ma Tao understood, and immediately jumped up with joy: "Good way, good way, I will immediately ask someone to write ......" (to be continued......)
