The news of the capture of Fuyang City soon spread to Xiangguo and Fanyang, as well as Jinling, and everyone was accustomed to the city changing hands, but Li Xiaofei shocked everyone by killing the rich of the family, robbing the rich and helping the poor. Pajaqili of Xiangguo looked at his subordinates wrapped in fur to keep out the cold, and also started the idea of killing the rich and helping the poor; Xiaoshan, Xiao Ding, Yuan Kang and others in Jinling City were furious, and hurriedly united with the courtiers to enter the palace to find Liu Xuan.

Pajachili told his idea to several generals around him, but these generals objected one by one, because these wealthy families gave gifts to the generals of the Black Flag Khanate. Pajaqili wanted to insist on his own idea, and several large patriarchs of Xiangguo hurriedly rushed over. The leader is called Old Master Lu, and it is said that some high-ranking officials of the Liang State were his students, and they were very famous in the land of Yan and Zhao.

Old Master Lu came to see Pajaqili on crutches, and when Pajaqili saw that the old man was trembling, for fear that he would fall, he asked Old Master Lu to sit down on his left and right, and took a pot of fire and put it in front of Old Master Lu. The old man's hair was white, but his eyes were bright, and he asked, "Does the Great Khan want to take over the world, or do he want to be a robber who robs his house?" ”

Pajaqili paused for a moment: "If you can take the world, you can take it, if you can't take it, we will move these people and property back to the grassland, and if you can't move it, you will burn it!" ”

Old Master Lu threw his crutches to the ground, which frightened Pajaqili: "The Great Khan's words are ridiculous, this is not an overnight world, and it is not by burning, killing and looting to take the world, only by curing can there be a take."

Pajaqili didn't understand it, so he said directly: "Okay, you just say what you mean, I just want to use you today, and learn from others to kill the rich and help the poor!" ”

The patriarchs who came with them were already pale with fright when they heard this, but Old Master Lu shouted with disdain: "Stupid! If you kill these rich families, who will raise grain and grass? Who will mobilize the people? In the future, if you sit in the world, will you go to beg for food and govern the country with a group of people called Hanako? Since ancient times, no matter who is the emperor, he has to deal with many things in the world with the family! Let me ask you, do you know how this tax is collected? Do you know how much grain there is in this country? If you rob ten times, you might as well find the rich family to collect it once! ”

The generals under Pajaqili also persuaded: "Great Khan, this old master Lu is very right, without them, it will be difficult for us to requisition grain and arrest people, they are better at doing these things than us, if we want to get rich every year, we really can't do without them!" ”

"Great Khan, this city management is not what our Fire Dragon Clan is good at, we just have to fight, they collected the money from us, and we saved a lot of trouble"

Seeing that everyone was echoing, and thinking that he really couldn't manage the city, he deliberately said: "Then if we are defeated, you will not surrender to the Liang State again, and then our Black Flag Khanate will still have nothing?" ”

Old Master Lu smiled: "Great Khan, there is a saying in the Central Plains, buying and selling is not benevolent and righteous, if the Great Khan is unfortunately defeated, as long as the green mountains are left without worrying about no firewood, when the Great Khan comes back, let's sit down and talk again, peace is precious."

Several patriarchs who came with him also hurriedly spoke: "Our treasury slaves are the Great Khan's, and the Great Khan will come to take them, and they can come at any time, don't worry."

Only then did Pajachili relent: "Since this is the case, I am relieved, then I will listen to this old man's words."

Several generals were unhappy: "Great Khan, the Central Plains has respected teachers since ancient times, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to call Old Master Lu like this."

"Great Khan, if we want to conquer the hearts of the people in the Central Plains, we must also learn to be benevolent and righteous."

"Yes, yes, we have to learn their methods, so that we can fight to Jiangnan in the future"

Pajaqili looked at this battle, where these generals were still the generals of the khanate, and it was clear that they were the guests of these wealthy families. When the matter came to this point, Pajaqili Ye Zi obeyed everyone, asked Old Master Lu to write him a few letters and sent them to Liang State, and issued a proclamation declaring that he sent troops to the Central Plains to save the people from fire and water, protect the lives of wealthy families, fields, property, and so on.

In the Jinling court, there was already a lot of indignation, Yuan Kangzuo asked Liu Xuan to go to Li Xiaofei's official post and escort him back to Jinling for interrogation, Xiaoshan Xiao Ding directly asked Liu Xuan to order Chen Hongyi to correct Li Xiaofei in front of the army, and the rest of the courtiers also gritted their teeth and asked Liu Xuan to kill Li Xiaofei and return the family to justice. Liu Xuan waited for everyone to finish speaking before he said: "Is there ironclad evidence?" ”

The ministers looked at me for a while, I looked at you, and looked at each other for a while, and then Xiao Shan said: "Although there is no ironclad evidence at present, the rumors from the north must have their roots, and maybe there is such a thing, so that everyone will know about it."

Liu Xuan smiled: "Because of the rumors of killing the general, this head can't be opened, so let's do it, aren't Sikong Xie Rui and General Zhong about to cross the river to take over the city, and we'll see when the time comes." This dynasty is sharing the world with the family, and it is expected that Li Xiaofei will not have the courage to kill so many rich families. Please also wait for the reply from Sikong Xie Rui."

After all, the purpose of killing Li Xiaofei was to weaken Chen Hongyi, and now Xie Rui and Zhong Zhiming led the army to take over the northern city, Li Xiaofei was just a hard-working pawn, not enough to worry about.

Chen Hongyi saw that the heavy snow closed the mountain for several days, sent spies to explore the way, and learned that there was a highland Niuwang Village next to Xiangguo City, and there were only a few hundred people guarding it. Chen Hongyi was willing to let go of this opportunity, so he took advantage of the night to touch Niuwang Village and seize the village.

The defeated army fled back to Xiangguo to report to Pajaqili, Pajaqili climbed the city wall to see, the Niuwang village erected a big banner with the character of Chen, and then saw that the outside of the city was still white, so he had an idea, turned around and asked his generals to bring people to fetch water to water the city after nightfall.

The next day, Chen Hongyi led the army to attack the city, and the city wall was all covered with ice, and Pajaqili laughed on the city: "Old horseman, I don't defend the city today, and you can't climb the city wall. ”

Chen Hongyi led the army around Xiangguo and then retreated to Niuwangzhai, Liu Jian couldn't help but sigh: "The people of this Black Flag Khanate are also very cunning, they know how to water into ice to block our army, and we can't take this city now."

Chen Hongyi looked at the ice-like Xiangguo City, drew his sword and plunged it into the ground: "This ice and snow, our army can't adapt to it for a while, but now that the army is retreating, Li Xiaofei will become a lone army, and there must be a way to take this Xiangguo City." Tell the battalions to go around and find some locals, and I'll find a way to get rid of them."

The battalions grabbed some local hunters from the mountains and forests, and when Chen Hongyi saw that these people were all tied up, he scolded: "Let you let me invite, but you have tied people up, quickly untie them up and entertain them!" ”

After several hunters were untied, they hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, Chen Hongyi asked them to get up: "Don't worry, we are just here to ask some questions, we will not beat you or kill you, we will let you go back after asking"

The hunters were trembling, and Chen Hongyi asked people to fetch fire and hot water to share with them, and then asked: "On such a snowy day, if you want to climb the frozen mountain, what will you do?" ”

The hunters looked at Chen Hongyi: "The general is going to ask this?" ”

Chen Hongyi nodded: "That's the problem, if it's a cliff four or five feet high, and the wood can't be built, what should I do?" ”

An old hunter spoke: "When I was a child, I saw my grandfather burn a big log and put it on the mountain, and when it smoked, it was stuck in the ice, and then it froze again, and hung firmly."

A young hunter also spoke: "I pinched a snowball with a few brothers a few days ago and rolled it over, and then inserted wood into the snowball, and climbed up the wood."

Chen Hongyi didn't quite understand this snowball, so he asked everyone to give him a demonstration, and several hunters quickly pinched out a snowball the size of a water tank for him, Chen Hongyi and Liang Jun both looked at this snowball, Chen Hongyi pointed to Xiangguo City: "What will happen if this snowball rolls down this mountain?" ”

Orion is blunt: "If you hit a tree, it will scatter or divert the course, and the general will roll the snowball down the mountain, and you will have to cut down all the trees."

Chen Hongyi laughed: "Okay, anyway, we have to burn firewood, and I will order all the troops to cut down all the trees under the mountain in three days, and sort out three ways." Liang Jun had long been short of firewood, and when he heard that he could cut trees for firewood, he took a big axe and a long knife and saw to cut down trees.

Li Xiaofei, after learning to ride for a few days, although he was not as good as Zhu Yaoshi's equestrianism, he could easily control the war horse, so Zhu Yaofei asked Li Xiaofei to teach him water and rowing. Li Xiaofei's face was embarrassed: "This ice, snow, and underground water, people will freeze", Murong Ling sneered on the side: "Liar"

Li Xiaofei was anxious: "You can do it, you will teach"

Murong Ling took off his clothes directly, revealing the phoenix tattoo behind him, everyone was stunned, this phoenix was like a painting on paper, Murong Ling's skin was more delicate than a woman's. Murong Ling didn't hide it, he took everyone to the river outside Fuyang City, chiseled the ice, jumped down with a plop, drilled around under the ice, and after swimming dozens of feet, he broke the ice from under the ice and landed lightly on the shore and pointed at Li Xiaofei: "It's your turn"

Li Xiaofei had to take off his clothes hard, but was stopped by Pharmacist Zhu: "Master Li, you just have to say the method, you don't have to go into the water yourself."

Li Xiaofei breathed a long sigh of relief, lay on the riverside and put his head into the water, and then raised his head: "Learn to hold your breath in the water first, don't panic when you hold your breath, and then slowly exhale it when you can't hold it."

Yao Shi Zhu did it a few times, but he was still puzzled: "It's not okay to just hold my breath, I have to swim around like General Murong."

Murong Ling smiled: "It's easy to do", and then raised his foot and kicked Li Xiaofei and Zhu Yaoshi into the river.

Li Xiaofei floated up and swam ashore after a few strokes, but Zhu Yaoshi choked in the river, Murong Ling jumped into the river again, swam around Zhu Yaoshi but did not save him, Zhu Yaoshi choked a few mouthfuls of water and immediately held his breath to stabilize himself, Murong Ling shouted next to him: "Hands and feet are paddling according to my appearance, the faster the better"

Pharmacist Zhu returned to the shore in the same way as Murong Ling, and Murong Ling was already waiting on the shore, and Pharmacist Zhu was steaming all over: "General Murong, that's it?" “

Murong Ling kicked Pharmacist Zhu back into the water with one kick, and Pharmacist Zhu was kicked seven times, but he was able to swim back and forth in the river more than thirty zhang wide. After Pharmacist Zhu went ashore for the last time, Murong Ling had already set up a fire for him and dried his clothes. Murong Ling looked at Pharmacist Zhu's men: "Do you also want to learn?" “

Everyone waved their hands one after another, but Pharmacist Zhu gritted his teeth: "You have to learn, learn more skills, and you will have more ways to live in the future!" Brothers, suffer more now, and shed less blood in the future."

Seeing Pharmacist Zhu speak, Murong Ling didn't wait for everyone to run back, so he kicked them all into the river one by one.
