On the eighth day of the first month of June, after Guo Yan came out of Li Dao's mansion, he immediately gathered his generals to attack Li Dao's mansion, but Li Dao had been reminded by Taoist priests and witches to strengthen the protection of his surroundings.

June 12, the two sides in Chang'an City to fight inseparable, Guo Yan took advantage of the chaos to rob the Son of Heaven, Li Dao found out, the Son of Heaven has been taken away by Guo Bi, Li Dao can't, had to rob the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, the war between the two sides also from Chang'an City to the outside of the city, Guo Bi led the troops to occupy the martial arts and Li Dao in just half a month of war continues, the three auxiliary places of the direct fight are full of mourning, blood flowed like a river.

"General, it's time!" Xinfeng, Zhang Ji's residence, Jia Xu looked at the information sent from the front line, and looked at Zhang Jidao with a smile.

"Wen He is talking about counterattacking Chang'an?" Zhang Ji stood up, looked at Jia Xu and asked.

"No, it's about seizing Fan Chou's military power." Jia Xu shook his head, Chang'an can only be broken by Chen Mo, he knows Chen Mo's intentions very well, if Zhang Ji intervenes at this time, it is likely that Chen Mo wants to seize power, this is definitely not a wise move, he will be suspicious if Zhang Ji is under Chen Mo's command in the future.

"Fan Chou?" Zhang Ji frowned when he heard this, he and Fan Chou have been hypocritical for many years, and he couldn't bear to do it at this time.

"Not bad." Jia Xu nodded and said: "There are two ways for the Marquis of Changling to go to Chang'an, one is to take Feng Yi and cross the Jing River, and the other is to cross Xinfeng, no matter which road is chosen, if the Marquis of Changling attacks Chang'an, Fan Chou will not sit idly by, so at this time, to take Fan Chou, I think it is the best time." ”

Li Dao and Guo Yan are busy with infighting, so they have no time to take care of anything else, and other Xiliang generals are afraid that only Hua Xiong, who is stationed in Feng Yi, has this ability, but Jia Xu guessed that it is really hard to say who Hua Xiong is facing at this time, don't forget that Hua Xiong and Chen Mo have a good relationship, and this time Li Guo is fighting, Hua Xiong did not say anything about it, which is very intriguing.

Zhang Ji nodded, looked at Jia Xu and said, "But Fan Chou has a heavy army, how can I seize power?" ”

"This matter is not difficult, the general can invite Fan Chou to discuss on the grounds of Li Guo and the others, ambush the knife and axe man, and capture and kill him!" Jia Xu smiled.

Zhang Ji nodded, and immediately asked Zhang Xiu to invite Fan Chou to come to discuss, and at the same time asked his cronies to bring fifty sword and axe hands to hide around, and when he gave an order, he rushed in and captured Fan Chou.

In the afternoon, Fan Chou was invited by Zhang Xiu, in the past two days, Fan Chou was also a little irritable, he didn't know whether he should continue to persecute Chen Mo according to the plan, or lead the troops back to persuade him, everyone came out with the Taishi, and now he controls the land of Sanfu, holding more than 100,000 Xiliang soldiers, working together, there will be something to do, but now what is the strength of his family, Zhang Ji invited him to discuss this matter, Fan Chou also had this meaning, and he agreed.

"You said these two people, why did they fight like this?" Fan Chou sat down with Zhang Ji, drank a little wine first, and sighed.

"Brother Fan, I didn't come to you today for this matter." Zhang Ji looked at Fan Choudao seriously.

Fan Chou was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zhang Ji with some confusion: "Didn't you ask Jinrong to come to me just for this matter?" ”

Zhang Ji said in a deep voice: "Brother Fan, since the Taishi went, dozens of generals of the Xiliang Army, large and small, have divided their territory in Guanzhong, and although Li Dao and Guo Yan control the court, not only have they done nothing, but now they are fighting each other, do you think we really have a future in this situation?" ”

"Jun Rong, what do you mean by this?" Fan Chou's face sank and he looked at Zhang Jidao.

"It doesn't mean much, it's just that I don't want to go down like this with them anymore, the situation in Guanzhong, you also know that if it goes on like this, eight hundred miles of fertile land, I'm afraid it will be uninhabited for thousands of miles." Zhang Ji said in a deep voice.

"You and I are soldiers, how to care, it's not something we should worry about, we just have to fight!" Fan Chou looked at Zhang Ji and frowned.

"It's good, but for whom? But I can call the shots. Zhang Ji slowly picked up the wine buds in his hand, looked at Fan Chou and said, "You and I have been friends for ten years, Brother Fan, do you really want to follow Li Dao and Guo Yan all the way?" ”

"It seems that Jun Rong has found the Ming Lord." Fan Chou's body leaned back slightly, looking at Zhang Ji's gaze, which shone with danger.

"What do you think of the Marquis of Changling?" Zhang Ji looked at Fan Choudao.

"Chen Mo?" Fan Chou shook his head and said: "He is not from Xiliang, nor is he from the old department of Taishi, Fan Chou is only loyal to Taishi in this life, and he is only loyal to Xiliang, Chen Mo...... Not enough qualifications. ”

Don't look at Fan Chou's good talkers on weekdays, but the plot of the township party is very heavy in his bones, Chen Mo is not from Xiliang, and he can't get his approval.

"Then it's rude!" Zhang Ji slammed the wine bud in his hand to the ground, followed closely, and the knife and axe hand who had been waiting outside the door came in with a bang.

Almost at the same time, Fan Chou suddenly stood up, and before the sword and axe hand approached, the long sword at his waist had already been drawn, and a sword stabbed at Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji is also proficient in martial arts, and he has been prepared, seeing Fan Chou get up, he has already drawn his sword and intersected with Fan Chou's long sword, but his strength is worse after all, the hand holding the sword trembled, and was repelled by the force of Fan Chou's blow, and sat on the seat.

Seeing this, the knife and axe hands around rushed forward, Fan Chou held up the table in front of Zhang Ji as a weapon and slashed back, several knife and axe hands who pounced were knocked out, although this is a hall, but the space is limited after all, Fan Chou has been on the battlefield for a long time, and his strength is outstanding, at this moment with a sword in one hand and a table in the other hand, dozens of knife and axe hands could not get close for a while, but Fan Chou took advantage of the terrain to fight back in embarrassment, and killed several knife and axe hands.

"Get out!" Seeing that the surrounding knife and axe hands were forced to retreat, Fan Chou threw out the table case and knocked several knife and axe men into a back, but Fan Chou did not advance but retreated, striding towards Zhang Ji, wanting to capture him.

Zhang Ji has also gotten up at this time, holding the sword in both hands, and Fan Chou fought fiercely, although he is also proficient in martial arts, but the strength is not as good as Fan Chou, a few rounds down, the sword in his hand can hardly be held, Fan Chou is so strong that he will not let go, a sword will be Zhang Ji in the hand of the sword flying, reaching out to capture Zhang Ji as a hostage, a silver gun suddenly rushed out from behind Zhang Ji, straight to Fan Chou's throat.

"Hugh my uncle!" At the critical moment, it was Zhang Ji who came, and a silver gun approached Fan Chou's vital point.

Fan Chou was helpless, so he had to swing his sword and fight again, but he saw that Zhang Xiu's martial arts were still above Zhang Ji, a silver spear collapsed and stabbed, fierce with a bit of elegance, and gave full play to the advantage of being an inch long and an inch strong.

And Zhang Ji on the side also came back to his senses at this moment, picked up the long sword from the ground, and the uncle and nephew joined forces, forcing Fan Chou to retreat again and again.

"Seal the back road!" Jia Xu, who came with Zhang Xiu, saw that Fan Chou was fighting and retreating, and was about to exit the hall, he felt bad, so he hurriedly ordered the knife and axe to block the door and cut off Fan Chou's retreat.

"Zhang Ji!" Seeing that the way to survive was cut off, Fan Chou was also ruthless, roared angrily, and fought to receive a shot from Zhang Xiu, but also to get close to Zhang Ji first, and let Zhang Xiu's silver spear pierce his shoulder, but the long sword in his hand used enough strength to slash at Zhang Ji.

"Uncle beware!" Seeing this, Zhang Xiu hurriedly made a broken word, and with a press of the gun, the silver spear that pierced the opponent's shoulder armor stirred.

No matter how fierce Fan Chou is, he couldn't help screaming in pain at this moment, and the force of the sword that slashed at Zhang Ji dispersed, but Zhang Ji easily blocked it, and stabbed Fan Chou's chest with a sword.

"Brother Fan!" Looking at Fan Chou, who was frozen, Zhang Ji was a little unbearable, after all, the two had been friends for more than ten years, and now they were fighting for life and death, and it was not what he wanted to end up in this field.

Fan Chou grinned, but there was a fierce light in his eyes, Zhang Xiu on the side saw that the situation was not good, he pulled out a silver gun, and in Fan Chou's angry gaze, a little cold star shattered Fan Chou's throat bone, Fan Chou's body trembled, holding the sword in one hand, and froze in place in a posture of accumulation, and did not fall down for a long time.

"Uncle, dead!" Zhang Xiu stepped forward, probed Fan Chou's snort, and turned his head to look at Zhang Jidao.

Zhang Ji sat down on the ground in a dejected manner, looking at Fan Chou's round eyes, and all kinds of feelings came to his heart for a while.

Jia Xu saw that Fan Chou was still standing, he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he didn't come in, so he hid behind a group of swordsmen and axes and shouted: "General, don't hesitate at this time, take away his talisman, and quickly seize Fan Chou's military power, and if it is late, there will be changes!" ”

After all, Fan Chou is here for a banquet, if his cronies learn that Fan Chou is dead and gather soldiers and horses to take revenge, they must seize the military power and kill these cronies before they are launched.

Zhang Ji sighed, stood up, looked at Fan Chou, who was staring at him, and bowed slightly: "Brother Fan, don't blame!" ”

Fan Chou naturally couldn't say anything, his burly body was unsupported, but he slowly fell to the ground, but his body still maintained its previous posture.

"Zhang Xiu listens to orders!" Zhang Ji took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Xiudao.

"The last general!" Zhang Xiuyi stepped forward and said loudly.

"According to this list, kill everyone on the list on the spot!" Zhang Ji's eyes were murderous, since it had reached this point, even if he was ashamed of Fan Chou in his heart, but his cronies couldn't stay, the two had worked together for a long time, and he naturally knew who his cronies under Fan Chou had the ability to influence the army.

"Whoa!" Zhang Xiu intervened, and immediately turned around and left to transfer troops, preparing to clean up the Fan Chouyu Party in the Xinfeng camp.

"Sir." After Zhang Xiu left, Zhang Ji looked at Jia Xu, sighed and said, "Please come with me to restrain Fan Chou's soldiers." ”

"Whoa!" Jia Xu nodded slightly, Fan Chou's cronies were gone, and the remaining Xiliang army, with Zhang Ji's prestige, was not difficult to gather, and he readily agreed at the moment and walked out side by side with Zhang Ji.
