Although the night was deep and the weather was cold, a city sixty miles northwest of Jiexiu fell into a carnival.

The city is not big, because it is the hometown of Zheng Xing, the great filial son of the mother, named Xiaoyi County, which is under the jurisdiction of Fenzhou Prefecture, forty miles away from Fenzhou, at this time it has been broken by the thief army, and the whole city has carnival.

said that it was broken by thieves, it was self-pasting, in fact, as early as last night, when Jiexiu surrendered, Xiaoyi County's request for surrender had been sent to Li Zicheng.

So, get up early in the morning, wash up a little, the blind Li ordered the camp, and in the afternoon he went to Xiaoyi and went directly into the city, accepting the filial piety of the filial sons, and after a commendation and punishment of appointment and dismissal, he lived in the county Yaguang at night to invite the soldiers to have a party, and the thieves under his subordinates also began to carnival all night in the city, although Li Yan repeatedly ordered that the people should not be disturbed, but who knows?

The originally majestic county government was in a mess at this time, and a bonfire was lit in the hall, where dozens of soldiers were drinking and eating, shouting and drinking, and some people even lay on the main hall and fell asleep......

And the county lord's mansion after the yamen is even more lively at this time, full of cups and chips staggered drinking orders, is there still the sound of silk bamboo piano, but more is a burst of rough lewd laughter sandwiched between the screams of the music girls and bursts of laughter.

Even the back house is like this, there is more wine, more women, but the voice is quieter, and the atmosphere seems to be a little wrong.

In the main hall of the Houfu, a long large table was set up, on which there were all kinds of wine and delicacies, a tall and sturdy man in his forties, leaning on the Taishi chair in the center, his face was dark, resolute and indifferent, but what was more striking was that he was covered with a black cloth on his left eye, and this person was the thief Kou Li Zicheng who took advantage of the annual leave to lead the company's employees on an outing.

There were dozens of people under him, pushing the cups and intertwining the cups, and almost everyone was holding a woman in their arms, kneading and kneading from time to time.

The atmosphere was originally very harmonious, and Li Zicheng and his subordinates also enjoyed this kind of treatment of eating and drinking and giving great health care to every city they visited.

At first, he was very surprised, he didn't know why Chongzhen was so good to him, could it be that he lured the enemy to go deeper? But slowly he found that this matter had nothing to do with Chongzhen at all, in the words of Li Yan and Niu Jinxing, that is what the people want, what the people want!

To him Magbi, Li Zicheng knows that he has a few catties and a few taels, and it is okay to be a mountain king on one side, but he can't really play with his country, he has self-knowledge, the mud can't support the wall, and the dog meat can't go to the big table.

So although he ate, drank and had fun all the way, he had already made a decision in his heart, and he would immediately withdraw his troops after taking Taiyuan to the north, and then he was in danger of being a soldier, and he went to find death.

It's just that...... Glancing at the subordinates who were enjoying themselves at the banquet, he couldn't help frowning, the journey was too smooth, and all of his subordinates floated down, thinking that he could hit the capital without much effort to pull Chongzhen off the dragon chair and go up to get a good look himself.

Ridiculous, ridiculous, from now on to the capital, thousands of miles away, several Xiongguan, the elite soldiers are strictly guarded, just a few small counties are fluttering is really ridiculous, you must know that he did not plan to enter Beijing from the beginning, because he knew that it was a dream, but he had to say this to the outside world, a to boost morale, and to establish the prestige of Dashun country.

Although the fighting spirit written in the text was impassioned, and he vowed to go to Beijing to overturn Chongzhen, and the serfs turned over to be the masters, in fact, only he and a few thieves knew that they would accept it when it was good or if it was not good, and it was their core strategic goal to run away.

Slowly drank the wine in the cup, Li Zicheng swept everyone in the banquet, and his eyes fell on a young man at the end of the seat on the left, the young man was not tall, but he was extremely strong, but at this time, he looked at the head of the seat with murderous intent in his eyes, this young man is the son of Li Guo, Li Laiheng, the king of Xiaochuang.

Seeing the murderous intent in his eyes, Li Zicheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and looked at the head of the table, that is, the strong man in his right hand who was in his forties and had a meaty face, at this time he was holding a woman and gnawing hard, the woman was reluctant but helpless, but this person was the other leader of the thief army, Liu Zongmin, who was also Li Zicheng's brother.

This person is unruly, lustful and greedy, and no one in the army is convinced, and sometimes even Li Zicheng is not a bird, and he is even domineering.

To what extent, to the point that he was trying to kill Li Laiheng with a knife with the strength of wine just now. Just because Li Laiheng said that he accused his subordinates of robbing and killing more than 300 of his subordinates, and made a Jingguan.

This matter has to go back to this afternoon, when the army just reached the outside of Xiaoyi City, a few thieves who escaped from Zhangyuan Village finally found the organization, kneeling in front of Li Laiheng and crying, it was a miserable one!

More than 300 people were killed, and only more than a dozen escaped, and the other party did not hide that they were Liu Zongmin's subordinates, and Li Laiheng was furious under shock.

"Maybe it's Liu Gou's person?"

"They themselves say that they are General Liu's people, and they don't look like they are small" The few thieves who escaped back were also a little uncertain, in fact, they felt the same as Li Laiheng in their hearts, even if Liu Zongmin was arrogant, he would not slaughter his own people so unabashedly, although he and Li Guo were not in harmony, but after all, they were all the way, and they were both thieves.

Li Laiheng sent a thousand cavalry to Zhangyuan Village to investigate, and then went to his father Li Guo to report the matter.

Li Guo (many pseudonyms, one of which is Li Jin, but there is evidence, Li Jin is not Li Guo, is Li Zicheng's third brother's son is more than 20 years younger than him, and he is the same person) This person is good at fighting and calm and strategic, and when he heard the news, he was silent, and he felt that there was another inside story, but he and Liu Zongmin have always been at odds, and this matter can be used as a gun to stab him twice, and the worst thing is to disgust him.

When the army entered Xiaoyi when it was dark, Zhangyuan Village quickly reported that Li Laiheng's 300 subordinates were all killed, the head was on the side of the official road, and the corpses were rammed for Jingguan, as for the people of Zhangyuan Village almost escaped, the angry thieves burned the village to the ground, and that Fanjiabao was also reduced to ashes in the raging fire.

The attack was so vicious, Li Laiheng was furious when he heard the news, and rushed directly to the celebration banquet in the lobby of the back house, and when many thieves were in front of him, he shouted and scolded Liu Zongmin.

Everyone is shocked, what a character Liu Zongmin is, he and Li Zicheng worship brothers, accompany him for more than ten years in the wind and rain to lay down the great Shun country, on power, on prestige except for Li Zicheng, no one can compare, under the thief, all the thieves nodded when they saw him for the first time, even if Li Guo and Gao Yigong, who have always been incompatible with him, have to do a set of surface kung fu.

But even so, he was still very dissatisfied in his heart, why were they all born as thieves, the blind Li could be the emperor and he could only be a minister, and even when he became the emperor, he only named himself a marquis, not even a king, he was stingy.

At this time, Li Laiheng scolded in front of everyone, making him lose face, and immediately became angry, and he drew a knife to kill Li Laiheng, but he was stopped by the blind Li Li, and the military advisor Niu Jinxing kept dragging him from the side and kept persuading.

In this process, Li Guo sat still all the time, looking at Liu Zongmin scolding Li Laiheng with a smile on his face, and Gao Yigong next to him also sneered.

Jiang is old and spicy, Niu Jinxing finally persuaded Liu Zongmin to return to his seat, and then listened to Li Laiheng explain the cause and effect, and immediately pointed out: Someone planted the blame, and the method was rude.

Every time the thief army takes a city, the soldiers are strictly ordered not to disturb the people at will, but a few thieves in private have their own henchmen to search for those big households, under normal circumstances, they are divided in advance, or come first and then come, and occasionally there is friction due to this, but in the end they all end in equal shares, and there are almost no real hands-on fights, let alone soldiers who meet each other and make trouble.

And this time it was just a human life, or more than 300 people, and it was even more appalling to cut off the beheadings to make a Jingguan, this was definitely not done by his own people, it was obviously a false accusation!

So who could it be?

Officers and soldiers, it is impossible, the officers and soldiers have long been frightened, how can they dare to come and grab food from them.

Local peers? It's also unlikely, how dare the little ghost touch the eggs of Lord Yama.

There is only one one, and it was made by the Fan family!

There are two reasons, the Fan family has a private army, and they are obviously unwilling to give up their family assets to the thieves, so they are ruthless, and then move the family north, after all, the base camp of the family is in Zhangjiakou, which is heavily defended Xuanfu.

The second is that according to the traces of the snow, the Fan family also fled north.

Niu Jinxing speculated, everyone was convinced, in fact, anyone who had a little brain believed that Liu Zongmin did not do it, and Li Guo naturally had a bright heart, and the reason why it was so was just a daily stabbing knife.
