After the Wagang army occupied this city, the tide rose in an instant, and it became the strongest group of rebel armies in the world.
Li Mi has made great efforts these times, eliminating Zhang Xutuo's elite, capturing Xingluocang, and taking Xingyang City, winning all the way, invincible, and enhancing the prestige of his leadership.
Li Xuanying took the opportunity to spread the explanation of the proverb in the army, and at present, the Wagang army believes that the protagonist of Tao Li Zhang's words is Li Mi, and the Li family should have the world, and he is also referring to him.
In this way, the civilian and military generals in the army are even more resentful of him, and they all hope that Li Mi will be the true dragon son in the future, so they will become the ministers of the dragon, have the founding merits, and become the final winner in the troubled times.
When the heroes are competing for the deer, standing in line is the most important, even if you are brave, and then have a strategy, but you do not follow the right master, it is inevitable to fail and die, and follow the right master, often invincible, invincible, stained with the light of the future son of heaven, life is very hard, more victories and fewer defeats, and the opening princes in history have come over like this.
The Wagang army led by Li Mi has expanded to 200,000 people, and in addition to the 100,000 people struggling in the city, there are also many camps outside the city, which are endless, and they are being reorganized, changing their clothing, armor, weapons, etc., and then gradually transforming into a regular army.
On this day, Zhai Rang brought some of his cronies to Xingyang City.
Shan Xiongxin, Huang Junhan, Zhai Mohou, Zhai Hong, Wang Ruxin and others, following Zhai Rang and approaching the ancient city, were all shocked by the scale of the military camp outside the city.
Coupled with the garrison in the city, just thinking about it, everyone was secretly surprised, this Li Mi's power was developing too fast.
Zhai Hong muttered: "If Zhai Da didn't accept him at the beginning, how could Li Mi have the current scenery, if he dared to forget his roots and have the mind of being the king independently, I would never spare him." ”
Zhai Rang shook his head and said, "Eldest brother, don't talk nonsense, let people listen, it's not good for anyone." ”
"My brother, you are not in a hurry, I am anxious for you, you are the leader, the first leader of the Wagang Army, now you see, such a big ancient city of Xingyang, so many soldiers and horses, Li Mi is already full-fledged, it is inevitable that he will become arrogant and rude, this time we meet, we should be careful." Although Zhai Hong's character and ability are a little worse, he is not completely pig-brained, and he can still analyze some things, but it is just too one-sided and extreme.
Huang Junhan continued: "General, you can't have the heart to harm people, and you can't have the heart to defend people, now Li Mi's reputation is getting louder and louder, and he has surpassed you, the general, if you can't suppress and deter it, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
After hearing this, Zhai Rang also took it to heart, this matter is related to the life of the family, as well as the fate of glory and wealth, and it cannot be taken lightly.
The 20,000 troops arrived, and after the announcement, they were allowed to enter the city, and saw such a large city, bustling streets and crowds, Zhai Rang and others were stunned, they used to occupy the mountain as the king, sitting on a small city, and it was the first time that the big city of such a scale was occupied by the Wagang army as their own.
Along the way, many people were hotly discussing the rumors that 'Li Mi should have the world', and Zhai Rang, Shan Xiongxin and others were surprised after hearing it.
Especially Zhai Rang, he himself has no ambition and mind to compete for the world, and his eyes determine that he cannot dominate so many heroes and heroes, so he is also retreating in his heart, if he balances the relationship between him and Li Mi, now he regrets a little, he knew that Li Mi was so powerful, the dragon among people, should not accept him, resulting in his current embarrassing position, abdication and Xian's thoughts have sprouted.
Li Mi, Xu Shiji, Jia Xiong and others learned that Zhai Rang had come to Xingyang, went out of the Shuaifu Festival Hall, and greeted them outside the gate together.
On the surface, Li Mi still regards himself as a subordinate and is not arrogant, but the group of generals behind him are a little impatient and have a bad eye, they don't care about Zhai Rang's master, they only feel that they obey Li Mi, but they are unwilling to accept Zhai Rang's leadership.
After Zhai Rang dismounted, he looked at the several rows of military attachés behind Li Mi, full of talents, fierce generals, and some secret palpitations, and felt a cold gaze focused on him.
"The generals have worked hard, and General Li has worked hard and made great achievements, and it is gratifying to congratulate us on laying such a rich territory for our Wagang army." Zhai Rang forced himself to calm down and said the opening polite words.
Li Mi was still a humble gentleman, and said to Zhai: "It's all the blessing of General Zhai, the Wagang Army can have today's achievements, and General Zhai occupied Wagang and actively opposed Sui. ”
The more humble he is, the more unconvinced many generals behind him, such as Zheng Ting, Wang Junkuo, Bing Yuanzhen, Deng Bao and others, they all feel that it was Li Mi who led them to win the battle, and Zhai Rang sat back and enjoyed his success, he had no ability, he was not worthy of everyone's support, and he continued to lead the overall situation.
Zhai Rang and Li Mi said polite words, a little bit of truth and falsehood, it is difficult for outsiders to know, and after entering the Shuai Mansion, they will simply have a party.
Li Mi asked people to report on the current troops, grain and grass, and the cities under their control, which had increased too much compared to the beginning.
Zhai Hong, Zhai Mohou and the others had their eyes shining, feeling that with such a development of the Wagang Army, their benefits would be more and more, and they could make a fortune with their hands.
Shan Xiongxin frowned, faintly sensing that the atmosphere was wrong, those newly attached generals were all staring at Zhai Letting them, their eyes were not good, and some people still had sneers and disdain on the corners of their mouths.
He sighed lightly in his heart: Li Mi's ability is indeed many times greater than Zhai Rang's, but when he joined Wagangzhai, it was Zhai Rang Lixian's corporal, who valued him very much, his brotherly feelings were quite deep, and Shan Xiongxin valued affection, so he didn't want Zhai Rang to have an accident.
Zhai Rang was also secretly surprised in his heart at this time, after all, the territory has become larger, and the number of generals has increased, so it is a little difficult for him to manage, and he does not know the specific situation at this time, so he pushed the boat down the river, and temporarily let Li Mi take charge of these, and then take a closer look at it in the future, and reward the meritorious soldiers according to their merits.
That night, Li Mi set up a banquet for Zhai Rang and others to wash the dust, but at the banquet, after many generals drank wine, their words were somewhat inferior, and few people toasted Zhai Rang, which made the latter unhappy, feeling that the atmosphere was depressed, and the situation was about to get out of his control.
Zhai Rang lived in the luxurious princely mansion before Yang Qing's death, and sent someone to invite his former friend Jia Xiong, wanting to inquire about the truth of Li Mi and others.
