Jin Mantang can be regarded as a full return in Wuyi.

For him, this trip to Wuyi was in a desperate situation, and he found another way to life. The current situation is like this, a big money owner like him, as Li Ze estimated, has become the coveted object of many powerful factions, but anyone who is a little ambitious wants to sharpen his knife Huo Huo wants to do a big job, and the premise of doing a big job is, of course, to have enough money and food. Jin Mantang, the No. 1 salt merchant in Yangzhou, has a lot of money that cannot be used.

Kill Jin Mantang and swallow his property, in the eyes of many people, it is enough to support an army of tens of thousands of people for several years, this huge wealth, so that many people plan in private, if it is not for Jin Mantang using Sheng and Qian Zhuang to hook up the interests of many people, plus there are too many people who want this money and they hold each other back, I am afraid that Jin Mantang will not even have the opportunity to find a way back.

And this time, he found a strong helper in Wuyi, and more importantly, in contact with Li Ze, Xia He and others, he could clearly feel that although the other party needed his money, he valued him more and sincerely wanted to pull him into the gang and become one of them. I have lived in Wuyi for almost half a month, and I have an extremely in-depth understanding of Wuwei's policies.

People like him are inherently sensitive to the policies of a place.

Although Wuwei is based on agriculture, it does not exclude businessmen, on the contrary, in their structure, businessmen account for a large proportion, like the Tu Hu he is familiar with, and even occupies an important position in Wuwei Festival Town as a businessman.

After meeting Li Anguo, the king of Zhending County, the two sides officially exchanged Geng posts for the two children, and after making a family appointment, Jin Mantang officially became a member of Wuwei Festival Town.

The position reserved for him by Li Ze is the position of executive director of Wuwei Qianzhuang.

The confluence of Wuwei and Shenghe is the inevitable result of this incident, and Wuwei also started its own network construction in the south with the help of Shenghe's already laid network, so as to extend its hand to the south.

Jin Mantang is now full of ambition.

The engagement of the two families was held extremely grandly in Wuyi, and the news was also specially arranged to spread all over the world at a very fast speed.

First of all, before Li Ze and Zhang Zhongwu officially fought a decisive battle, those people must still have to look at the style, after all, Li Ze's Wuwei Festival Town is now one of the well-known festival towns in the world, and the strength is strong, it is really unwise to offend such a powerful figure for no reason, and there is such a buffer for a period of time, Jin Mantang can use this vacancy to make corresponding arrangements and arrangements, just in case.

Second, if Li Ze defeats Zhang Zhongwu, then his strength will inevitably go to a higher level, and Jin Mantang will not have to worry about the fox and the tiger, and at that time, I am afraid that there will be a lot of festival towns, and I will have to use Jin Mantang to climb the big tree of Li Ze. After all, there are still very few local powerful people who want to compete for a short and long term in the world, and the vast majority of people just want to keep their wealth in front of them.

Of course, if Li Ze is defeated by Zhang Zhongwu and can only be respectful, those people will never be polite to Jin Mantang, which is also Jin Mantang's original intention to respond in advance.

For Jin Mantang, this is an extremely cost-effective deal, Cheng, he Jin Mantang has really become a figure who can influence the world from now on, and he can already confirm this from the prospect of the money bank that Xia He discussed with him. defeated, at least he can guarantee that he will not die and the clan will be wiped out, and Wuwei will provide him with a place to live.

The worst case scenario is that Li Ze is completely finished, then he will naturally be finished, and if something like this happens, he has nothing to regret, because this is his original situation.

He happily went home.

When he came, he was quietly defeated, but when he left, he was accompanied by Wuwei's guard of honor, and Li Ze even sent a hundred of his own guards to act as Jin Mantang's escort, which is not unhigh-profile.

After dealing with Jin Mantang's affairs, Li Ze finally set his eyes on the inevitable decisive battle with Zhang Zhongwu.

This time it is no longer a small fight, with the death of Gao Biao, Hedong has become an empty shelf, the original seven armies in Hedong, except for Li Cunzhong and Han Qi to form an alliance to support the bureau, Hengye and Daizhou armies exist in name only, the other three armies are independent, and they are no longer able to pose a threat to Gao Yu, and all the pressure is suddenly transferred to the front of Wuwei.

When Li Ze redeployed his army to complete the layout of the front, Zhang Zhongwu also transferred his main force from Hedong to the face of Wuwei's army after several months.

The two sides engaged in a full-scale confrontation on a front of hundreds of miles.

Cao Xin, the governor of Qianniuwei, moved to Yizhou and fully commanded the war between Dingyi and Yizhou, and opposite him was Zhuozhou, the gateway to Youzhou, Zhang Zhongwu's old nest.

This is a war that neither side can afford to lose.

Once Youzhou is not guaranteed, even though Zhang Zhongwu still has a deeper strategic depth, but those places are no longer able to support his huge army, and what is even more terrible is that once you lose Youzhou, I am afraid that those Khitan tribes under Zhang Zhongwu's control will no longer be able to honestly drive him.

On the other hand, if Li Ze loses this battle and Dingzhou and Yizhou are not guaranteed, Zhang Zhongwu will wave his troops and drive directly to Zhaozhou and Zhenzhou, the two fundamental places of martial power. In Li Ze's planning of Yizhou, before Dezhou really grows, these two places are still the center of supporting the entire Wuwei.

Cao Xin's command, now gathered Shi Zhuang commanded Dingzhou 10,000 soldiers, Wang Sili commanded Yizhou 10,000 soldiers, in addition to the autumn harvest, and recruited 30,000 soldiers from the local area, these two generals under the command, gathered nearly 100,000 people, stationed in Zhenzhou Tu Lichun and Liang Han's department of 5,000 soldiers also arrived in Yizhou in mid-October, forming Cao Xin's Chinese army, and the former Li Anguo's close general Wen Fu led the headquarters of 3,000 men and horses, as a guard to protect the front army of food and grass, ordnance safety passage. As Wenfu's helper, it is the 3,000 Divine Army under Xue Ping's command.

Li Ze, on the other hand, after issuing a letter on October 15 to discuss Zhang Xuan, led the men and horses of his headquarters, including 3,000 guards and righteous servants, 1,000 Mo sword soldiers, 100 Chengde wolf cavalry, and more than 1,000 wolf cavalry to supplement the team, and set out from Wuyi and stationed in Dingzhou.

At this point, the war between the two sides has officially begun.

And You Yong, the commander of Wuwei Jiezhen, issued a mobilization order for all the government soldiers in Wuyi, and all the government soldiers need to be assembled at any time and go to the front line.

Hundreds of students of Wuwei Academy threw down their pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, put on their uniforms, and lifted their horizontal knives, and some of them entered Li Ze's Chinese army. Among the disciples of Zhang Huijiao, if anyone is powerless, it will definitely be the object of ridicule, these people are all civil and military guys who can both move their mouths and hands.

Of course, as these sparks that Li Ze pinned his hopes on, it is impossible for Li Ze to really put them on the battlefield unless it is absolutely necessary, let them follow, feel the moment of life and death on the battlefield, and feel the atmosphere of rivers of blood, which is still very helpful for them to help Li Ze conquer the Quartet and govern the place in the future.

Others, along with Zhanghui, were stationed in the Wuwei Festival Town Mansion as a means of stabilizing the rear.

The medical hall located in Zhenzhou is also empty, not only the doctors here, but also those doctors in the countryside have also been emptied, Li Ze has now basically achieved that there is a doctor at every outpost, a medical team for every song, and a field ambulance medical center for each battalion, these doctors in white clothes and white hats have now become an indispensable part of the army, and they are also the most respected group of people among the sergeants.

On the battlefield, from the generals to the small soldiers, no one dares to guarantee that their lives are better than others, and with the existence of these people, life will have an extra layer of security.

Yan Jiu, who was so tired that his little face lost a circle, watched with satisfaction as truckloads of first-aid drugs were sent to the troops, and then distributed to every soldier, and the doctors on the front line would teach these soldiers some simple first-aid methods, don't underestimate these means, sometimes, whether you can save your life, and really see if you can complete these things in the first time.

And the Duzhi Division located in Wuyi is even busier, Xia He is almost unexpected, every day is approving a large number of documents pouring in, the silver money in the treasury is flowing out, and the grain in the grain depot is also flowing out every day, if it is not for the new grain entering the warehouse every day, I am afraid that she will really be unable to sleep at night. But even so, the glamorous Wuwei Du Branch, during this time period, when he appeared in front of everyone every day, he looked unkempt.

In Wuyi, there are only Li Anguo and Li Anmin who are really fine.

Li Anmin originally felt that he could help at this time, but was stopped by Li Anguo, at this time, if the two of them appeared in the Wuwei Festival Town Mansion, it would not be helping, it was causing trouble, and in Li Ze's arrangement, there was no mention of the two of them.

So no matter how anxious they were, the two of them could only work with the Wu family and Aunt Tao to absentmindedly play the new toy that Li Ze got for them every day in the manor, mahjong.

The eyes of the people of the world have fallen on this great war that has a bearing on the overall situation of the north.
