Neutralized three years, early April.

Han Pheasant on the bank of the Yellow River, defeated Li Yan, captured more than 10,000 soldiers of the grass army, captured more than 3,000 horses, countless heavy grain and grass, poor Li Yan, led less than 2,000 remnants of the army, fled westward, and finally took refuge in Zhu Wen.

By the time Liu Zhijun got the news and wanted a piece of the pie, the war had already ended, and Xu Weijun had more than 25,000 horses to guard and surrender the soldiers, count the results, and let him not get a single hair.

And in Han Pheasant's Dazhai, Yang Shihou, who guarded the base camp, was very vigilant, and after a lesson, he divided the soldiers into two groups, one wave rested, and one wave did not dare to relax to patrol Dazhai, so that Liu Zhijun had no chance to take advantage of it.

The army returned to the division camp and continued to be stationed on the banks of the Yellow River, along the Yellow River, and now only Han Pheasant and Liu Zhijun are left to confront each other.

Han Pheasant was not in a hurry at all, he was constantly reorganizing people and horses, practicing day and night; While facing Liu Zhijun's department upstream, he stared at him.

Facing Han Pheasant, whose strength was close to more than 50,000 people, Liu Zhijun was like sitting on pins and needles, he didn't dare to attack, he didn't dare to go, and his fate seemed to be doomed.

On the sixth day of the fourth month, Liu Zhijun had no choice but to surrender, in his mind, instead of waiting for Zhu Wen to defeat Huang Chao and then come to absorb him, it was better to take care of the present and directly join Han Pheasant to get benefits.

Xu Weijun's big tent.

After defeating Li Yan and surrendering Liu Zhijun, Zhu Li and the others did not stop, and immediately began to discuss the strategy of dealing with Shang Rang and Shi Pu.

"Shang Rang originally had more than 30,000 horses, plus recently, Han Zhi and Li Yan have been defeated one after another, and most of the fleeing grass army have been attached to his command, and it is roughly estimated that his current strength has reached more than 40,000." Zhu Li directly opened his mouth and analyzed.

"Shang Rang is the general of Wang Xianzhi and Huang Chao, and he controls the most elite guards of the Grass Army, with his prestige, in the Grass Army, except for Huang Chao himself, no one can shake it, and his combat power is incomparable, and he is invincible."

"Look at Shi Pu again, Shi Pu originally had 20,000 men and horses, these people are his old subordinates, and they are also the most elite guards in Xuzhou, according to the report of the exploration horse, he brought a group of strong men from Pengcheng, temporarily supplemented with 5,000 guards, and the existing 25,000 men and horses are sticking to the city, backed by geographical advantages, and it is also not easy to attack."

Speaking of this, Zhu Li looked around at everyone and continued: "Whether it is Shang Rang or Shi Pu, it is not something that we can swallow in one bite now, no matter which side we attack, the other side will not sit idly by, rather than benefiting others, we might as well wait and see what happens." ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded one after another.

Li Hanzhi is more anxious, and he is belligerent and addicted, he has just experienced a big war, and he is boiling with blood, but Li Yan's guy is too uncompetitive, as soon as he saw the fake momentum created by Han Pheasant and others, he slipped away directly, so that he didn't enjoy it, and the war was over.

And Liu Zhijun, who was even more soft, surrendered directly, so that he didn't even have a chance to go into battle, and under the itch, he said unwillingly: "Then let's just do it?" ”

"Not really." Han Pheasant said, "The general's meaning is to let us wait for news from Cai, no matter whether Huang Chao wins or loses, Shang Rang and Shi Pu will have a battle." ”

"If Huang Chao wins, Shang Rang will carry out Huang Chao's order and have to fight; Huang Chao was defeated, and Shang Rang would also attack Shi Pu in order to obtain the capital to protect himself, and when to fight, it depends on everyone's grasp of the timing. ”

"In other words, Shang Rang and Shi Pu, after the results are out on the Chenzhou side, one side will always be the first to attack, and at that time, it is our opportunity."

Following.

Yang Zaixing and Li Hanzhi stood at the door of the big tent, their eyes wide open for each other, glaring at each other, and they had a tendency to fight.

At this moment, a palace guard hurriedly came with Jing Ming in a strong suit, Yang Zaixing glanced at Jing Ming, and said curiously: "Jing Ming, what is the important news?" ”

Jing Ming's expression was solemn, and when he heard Yang Zaixing's voice, he raised his head, glanced at him with a wry smile, and said apologetically: "Brother Yang, I have something urgent to return to the general, so I won't be polite to you." ”

Before Yang Zaixing could say anything, he saw Jing Ming hurriedly enter the big tent, very urgent, leaving him with a somewhat depressed back.

It made Yang Zaixing look puzzled, and somehow, he suddenly had a bad premonition, at this time Li Hanzhi was still looking at him with a smile, but Yang Zaixing no longer paid attention to it, but pricked up his ears, leaned on the big tent, and listened to the movement inside.

Seeing Yang Zaixing's behavior so strange, Li Hanzhi couldn't help but follow suit, and secretly listened to the movement in the big tent.

"Is there something wrong?" Seeing Jing Ming with a solemn face, Zhu Li wondered.

Jing Ming glanced at Zhu Li deeply, and suddenly "poofed", fell to the ground on his knees, his head buried deeply between his arms, as if he had a great sin, and cried out sadly: "General, your subordinates deserve to die, please give your subordinates the death penalty." ”

Zhu Li didn't take it seriously, Jing Ming was his intelligence leader, and it was a common thing to see him report the situation, where did he think that he would suddenly come to such a scene.

You must know that since the Tang Dynasty, it can be said that it is the most enlightened dynasty in the ancient dynasties, except for meeting saints, even if civilians see Shangguan, they never bow down on their knees.

Kneeling on one knee is already the limit, and even in the army, except for his henchmen, few people kneel to worship, and they generally bow their hands, but Jing Ming suddenly knelt on both knees and bowed to worship, which shows that he must be extremely guilty, or he has indeed committed an unforgivable crime.

Zhu Li was shocked in his heart, stared at Jing Ming, showed a look of scrutiny, and said cautiously: "You get up first, you have something to say." ”

When Jing Ming heard this, he didn't get up, but hoarsely voiced, and said sadly: "General, subordinates, subordinates can't stand you." ”

I can't help myself, Zhu Li was confused when she heard this, and suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, but she still forced herself to calm down and said, "What's the matter?" By the way, if it's about me, get up and speak. ”

"No, general, your subordinates will not be redeemed." Jing Ming said miserably, "Yu Chi Niangzi, Yu Chi Niangzi......."

"What?" As soon as he heard that it was about Yu Chi Jin, Zhu Li suddenly got up, looked at Jing Ming in disbelief, his eyes were full of panic, and said eagerly: "What's wrong with Jin'er?" Come on, what's wrong with Jin'er? ”

"Lady Yuchi, she, she's missing." Jing Ming hissed and cried out sadly.

"Goodong" Zhu Li suddenly felt a burst of dizziness, and her entire brain instantly fell into a blank, and she slumped into her seat weakly, "Jin'er is missing, Jin'er is missing?" ”

In his mouth, all that remained was an unconscious whisper, which was not only unbelievable, but even more difficult to accept.

"How can you say that you are missing if you are missing?" Zhu Li couldn't believe his ears at all, as if he realized something, he suddenly stood up again, condescendingly, looking at Jing Ming, who was lying on the ground, and shouted: "What the hell is going on, why is Jin'er missing?" ”

Zhu Li was really angry, that cheerful and generous little lady with clear love and hate, that woman who was as proud as Dongmei and as delicate as a fire lotus, suddenly disappeared, or disappeared inexplicably under the protection of Jing Ming, Liang Zhang, Xie Tian, Xie Di and others, how could he believe it?

The most important thing is that it is the daughter-in-law he personally booked, and if he says no, it will be gone, how can he accept it?

Although he is not good at expressing his feelings, once he is devoted, he is deeply loved, and once he decides, he is forever.

The sudden disappearance of Wei Chi Jin was tantamount to another piece of flesh in his heart, making him unable to breathe in pain and making him convulsive beyond control.

The anxious and angry roar, even the two people who were hiding outside the big battle and eavesdropping, could feel the kind of anger that collapsed the heavens and leveled the four seas.

Listening to the two sounds of "poof" and "poof", Yang Zaixing and Li Hanzhi, almost in no particular order, all fell to the ground, and a look of palpitations suddenly appeared on their faces.

Not to mention Li Hanzhi, Yang Zaixing has followed Zhu Li for so long, and he has never seen the other party get angry, this is the first time that he has been so angry, obviously he is angry and has lost his mind a little, even if they are brave, they are frightened.

Although Zhu Li adheres to the principle of equality for all and treats everyone around him, in the eyes of his subordinates, he is a lord after all.

What's more, this is a lord who never rushes to speak out, and the sudden outburst of anger is even more terrifying and confusing.

And Jing Ming, who was at the center of the outbreak, was more like a daisy in a storm, as if he could be destroyed at any time, ravaged to the point of decay and ruin.

But in the face of Zhu Li's questioning, Jing Ming had to grit his teeth and replied: "The general atoned for his crimes, the last time the general broke through Li Hanzhi's camp, his subordinates sent the news back, and was about to report to Mr. Yan, but was unintentionally intercepted by Wei Chi Niangzi, she said that she would convey it to Mr. on my behalf, and her subordinates naturally did not suspect it, and then they turned around and continued to inquire about the news." ”

"But a few days later, when the subordinates went back to deliver the news again, I heard Mr. Yan say that the lady left the book and ran away, and she didn't even say where she went." Jing Ming was a little aggrieved, and even a little overwhelmed.

"What did her letter say?" Zhu Li's expression slowed slightly, and he immediately asked.

"The lady in the letter, just passed the news to Mr. on behalf of her subordinates, claiming that she was just going out for a walk, so that everyone should not worry, and did not say where she went." Jing Ming hurriedly replied.

When Zhu Li heard this, his expression was complicated, and he was also clueless, and suddenly said, "What about thank heaven and thank you?" ”

Jing Ming was stunned when he heard this, and then immediately said: "These two people are the relatives of the lady, and they lost their traces at the same time as the lady. ”

After thinking about it, he continued: "We tracked down Pengcheng and confirmed that they had entered the barracks, and since then they have lost clues. ”

"Pengcheng Barracks?"

"Yes. By the way, Pengcheng was recruiting soldiers at that time, and the person in charge was a lieutenant named Huang Hao. Jing Ming thought about it, and then replied in detail again.

What did Wei Chijin do when he went to the barracks, Zhu Li was puzzled, and with his emotional intelligence, he probably couldn't understand it, so he continued: "What about Huang Haoren? ”

"Huang Hao had already led the new army to Xiaocheng about seven or eight days ago, and he should still be in Xiaocheng now, I have sent ghost warriors to sneak in there, so that they can wait for an opportunity to approach Huang Hao and inquire about the news." Jing Ming hurriedly said.

"Okay, except for Huang Hao, don't let go of the guards who entered Xiaocheng in the same batch, if Jin'er mixes into the barracks, she shouldn't use her real name, but thank you and thank you for being very recognizable, and you will notify me immediately if there is news." Zhu Li stretched out her hand and pinched her eyebrows, suddenly feeling very tired, as if her whole person had been hollowed out.
