Zhang Xianzhong and Yuan Shizhong swaggered out of the camp, until now, Zhang Xianzhong is still nervous, and he doesn't believe that Li Zicheng will let himself out like this.

"Eight kings, don't worry too much, Li Hongji will not dare to come." Yuan Shizhong rode on his horse and turned around and said.

Zhang Xianzhong said: "How can you be so sure that Li Hongji is not a good person. ”

"Li Hongji is not easy to get along, my Yuan Shizhong is a soft persimmon?" Yuan Shizhong snorted coldly when he heard this, and said: "The camp is only separated from the official army by a drop of water, then Wang Ding is fighting against the water, if he dares to move, Wang Ding will definitely cross the river and fight." ”

"Even if he Li Hongji doesn't care about Wang Ding, there is not my little Yuan Ying here, what are you afraid of?"

"Somewhat." Zhang Xianzhong looked behind him and found that it was still as still as water, and he also nodded and believed this statement.

The two went out of the camp, all the way south, and soon arrived in Lantian County.

This Lantian County was originally a garrison for the official army, but last year, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong passed through once, and the official army was beaten away, and the treasury was released, and the young and strong among the people were almost caught.

Now when I come back and look back, there is not a single hair left.

Yuan Shizhong was a little embarrassed, Zhang Xianzhong didn't feel anything, he had seen a lot of this kind of scene, in his opinion, even if he didn't snatch it all, the officers and soldiers would be clean.

"Eight Kings, where are you going?" Seeing Zhang Xianzhong leading people to the west, Yuan Shizhong stopped in front and said with a smile: "Aren't we going to Nanyang to vote for the king of Nanyang?" ”

"Oh, I'm going to go West Side." Zhang Xianzhong's heart tightened, and he slowly touched his hand to the knife.

This Yuan Shizhong is really an iron-hearted member of the official army, and he wants to be the next Liu Guoneng, if he goes to Nanyang like this, he is afraid that he might as well stay in the camp.

At that time, I was afraid that it would really become a fish on the board and be slaughtered.

"The west is deserted, what is better, the eight kings still follow me to the dock as soon as possible, where you can take a boat to the inner countryside, and it will be not far from Nanyang City to the inner countryside."

Yuan Shizhong sneered again and again, and also revealed the dangling knife on his waist.

"Oh, yes, yes..."

Zhang Xianzhong was about to make a move, but suddenly found that the people in Xiao Yuan's camp had silently surrounded the horse team on his side at some point.

Xiao Yuan's camp is not as powerful as breaking into the camp, but it also has a scale of more than 20,000 yuan, and its power is not small.

Zhang Xianzhong now has only a few hundred people left, and Yuan Shizhong knows that Liu Yuqi is under Zhu Youhua, and he must be coerced to go to Nanyang.

Hundreds of people were surrounded by 20,000 people in the middle, and the number of the opposing horse team and the old camp was the same.

The two sides confronted each other for a long time, and just when the atmosphere was gradually tense, Zhu Chengju of Xiao Yuanying said with a smile: "What are you doing, everyone hasn't been together for a long time, if you have anything to say, it's not too late to talk about it in Nanyang." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Kewang also smiled and said: "That's it, father, Nanyang is not a small place, there are not many officers and soldiers, let's go, we can do more." ”

Yuan Shizhong sneered: "What do the eight kings think? ”

Zhang Xianzhong was silent for a long time, let go of his hand first, and said with a smile: "I think it's good, then let's go find the boat first?" ”

"The Eight Kings please." Lieutenant General Yuan Shi waved his hand, and the people in Xiao Yuan's camp also made way to get out of the way to the dock.

Watching Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Kewang and others quickly enter the city, Yuan Shizhong's face changed abruptly, and he said coldly:

"You take the horse team to keep an eye on them, Zhang Huanghu's eighteen village horse team is known for its prestige, bring more people, if you want to defect to the court, this is a good hand."

Zhu Chengju nodded, and ordered the two thousand horse team to roar away.

......

Henan, Nanyang Fucheng.

Today's Nanyang has changed greatly compared with last year, first of all, the official road outside the city.

Under the correct program of Zhu Youhua, the king of Nanyang, "if you want to get rich, you must first build roads", the military and civilians of Nanyang worked together to repair and expand the official roads, which greatly promoted the circulation of the population.

After the official road was repaired, blocks of residential areas soon developed around it, and many markets and settlements appeared around Wangzhuang.

But these suburbs-like places are not blocked by city walls, and once the rogues attack, it is almost equivalent to being undefended, and it is easy to be surrounded by three lights.

At this time, it is necessary to use Nanyang to build.

Under the instructions of the Nanyang Royal Mansion and the Nanyang government offices, Nanyang Yijian was responsible for the expansion and maintenance project of Nanyang City.

It's a big project.

The labor battalions under Nanyang Yijian have their own division of labor, and they are also the backbone of construction.

They wanted to renovate the city walls, towers, horse roads, and official offices that had been in disrepair for a long time in Nanyang City, and demolish the warehouses and houses that were not used much in the city.

After the demolition, new necessary facilities were to be expanded on the original site, such as a forage yard and an armory.

This is still inside the city, and there is a larger project outside the city, which is to add a new wall around the newly emerged suburb of Nanyang, called the outer city.

Zhu Youhua is a county king, and even the Nanyang Mansion can't be the master of this kind of thing, so he has to report to the top, and only after the court resolves can it be put into practice.

Zhu Youhua had heard of the speed of the court's resolution in later generations, and when the court's decision came down, he was afraid that the cucumber dishes would be cold.

What Zhu Youhua did was also very simple, it should be reported and repaired.

In recent days, Zhu Youhua has been discussing with Xu Shouhui and other old craftsmen about enclosing land for the city, and these villages suddenly appeared, and people from all over the country came to hear the wind and did not protect them, which is not good at all.

But if you want to protect it, the cost and expense are too great.

Nanyang City is no longer small, and an outer city is circled around the Wangzhuang and villages outside the city, and this scale is at least several times that of when Nanyang was built.

"Speaking of which, isn't it just a matter of money!" Zhu Youhua clapped his hand on the table and said, "You let go of this king, and the matter of money has my father!" ”

"When the prince said so, the villain was relieved." Hearing this, Xu Shouhui laughed.

Special mother, Fu Wang is rich in the world, and it is not easy to build a Nanyang, as for how to pluck this iron rooster, this is not his own business.

"The prince is not good!" Suddenly, a guard ran in with great fanfare.

"What's wrong, it's not good for this king to expand Nanyang?" Zhu Youhua frowned and asked.

The guard took a breath and said, "Lord Wang, it's the thieves who are here, and there are quite a few!" ”

"Again?" Zhu Youhua slapped his forehead, "This Nima is wave after wave, and there is no end, how many thieves are there in the hinterland of my Daming?" ”

In your own home, how can you be as scared as you are outside the plug!

"Lord, what a happy event!" Liu Yuqi suddenly ran in and laughed: "My cousin has a letter!" ”

"Yuan Shizhong replied? How to say! "Regarding the appeasement of Yuan Shizhong, Zhu Youhua is more concerned.

Liu Yuqi handed the letter to Zhu Youhua and said, "He and Zhang Xianzhong crossed the river by boat from Lantian Wharf, and they will arrive in the inner countryside of our Nanyang Mansion in a few days!" ”

Zhu Youhua said: "In this way, it is only three or five days away? It's really fast, do you want my brother to be anxious? ”

"The prince made fun of the little one again." Liu Yuqi was finally going to reunite with his cousin, and he was a little overjoyed.

Listening to the two singing and harmonizing, the guards were stunned.

Wait a while, let this guard take care of it, Yuan Shizhong is the cousin of this Liu Yuqi, so this thief, is he here to surrender?

Or say that his own prince is a god, Yuan Shizhong is a giant, a thief with tens of thousands of people under his hands, and the officials and troops in northern Shaanxi have also suffered a lot of losses from Xiao Yuan's camp, and the governors have repeatedly failed to surrender.

Who would have thought, a letter here passed, and it fell.

As soon as the guards thought of this, they heard Zhu Youhua ask, "Which thieves did you just say?" ”

The guard took a few steps back and sneered: "Back to the prince, it's a little confused, what I just said is this Yuan Shizhong and Zhang Bingzhong." ”

Zhu Youhua also smiled and said that it was okay, and waved his hand to order him to go down.
