At the beginning, Luo Rucai was still a little disdainful of Xiao Tianjian's acceptance, but at this point, he had to start to formally consider Xiao Tianjian's idea.

Dongshan Tiger watched the cavalry of the Xingtian Army performing a drill in the open space, his fists clenched and his face was red, he looked excited, and he kept nodding his head and muttering something, so that people close to him could hear it, and what he originally muttered was: "Strong!" Great! The big husband should be like this! When it is, too! When will I be able to bring out such a male army! How did this Xiao Dashuai do it? ”

Liu Yaoben, who was accompanying Dongshan Tiger Han Fang, looked at him and smiled slightly: "Brother Han wants to bring out this elite soldier, why is it difficult?" As long as Brother Han says a word, our handsome man will definitely be willing to let Brother Han get his wish! ”

After Dongshan Tiger heard this, his eyes lit up, but immediately dimmed again, how could he not want to lead such a soldier and horse across the battlefield! But although he is very brave, he is always not valued by Luo Rucai, so that now he only has a few hundred soldiers under him, and he does things under Luo Rucai, military discipline cannot be talked about at all, he can't manage it tightly, a little stricter, the people below don't do it, and the general who collapses the sky often restricts him, so that he is always unable to use his strength, so he can only rush up and fight like a madman, and want to bring out such a strong army, not just people.

Luo Rucai looked at the several battalions of soldiers and horses of the Xingtian Army, his heart was quite shocked, he was silent for a long time, and returned to Xiao Tianjian's big tent, Xiao Tianjian smiled at Luo Rucai and asked: "I don't know if these soldiers and generals can still enter Brother Luo's eyes?" ”

Luo Rucai immediately nodded and said, "Brother Xiao's soldiers and horses are the strongest soldiers in the world!" Luo is really ashamed of you! ”

"Where! General Luo is polite, I am afraid that Brother Luo can also see clearly in the current trend, although the rebels in the world are rising in all directions, and the wind is surging, but now after the imperial court implements the four positive six corners and ten sides of the net, the survival of the righteous armies from all walks of life is difficult, this must be Brother Luo must understand, you and I are both forced to rise up, in order to overthrow the Ming Dynasty, how can we achieve great things if we go on alone?

At present, as far as I know, Liu Guoneng has been forced by Xiong Wencan to surrender to the imperial court, and the eight kings have also been forced to be helpless, and announced their resignation in Gucheng, and at the same time, there are many rebels with a slightly smaller force, who have been exterminated by the official army, and even the current situation of King Chuang is very bad!

In today's plan, in Xiao's view, only by uniting many righteous armies can the current court be completely overthrown! Otherwise, they can only be broken by the officials and soldiers, and finally let those dead brothers shed their blood in vain!

Fortunately, my Xingtianjun has also accumulated a family business over the years, and he can still compete with the official army, Xiao is not talented, since I have seen Brother Luo today, I have a reluctant request, I don't know if the general should talk about it! ”

After hearing this, Luo Rucai's heart moved, and he secretly said that he should have come, so he hugged his fists and said, "Brother Xiao has something to say!" Although you and I have met for the first time today, we have been friends for a long time! There's nothing to talk about! ”

"Since this is the case, then I will be blunt! Since Xiao started the army, he has long known that Brother Luo is a wise and resourceful person among the righteous armies from all walks of life, and now if you and I can join forces, with Brother Luo's fame, we will be able to raise our arms and call, and we will be able to respond to all the righteous armies, and fight against the imperial court officials and soldiers together, and conspire for a great cause! But I don't know if Brother Luo can deign to come to my Xingtian Army as a deputy commander? Xiao Tianjian was no longer polite, and even said his thoughts to Luo Rucai.

After hearing this, Luo Rucai took a deep breath: "This ......"

If Xiao Tianjian directly put forward this opinion at the noon banquet, Luo Rucai probably wouldn't agree, but after watching the drill of the third battalion of the Xingtian Army in the afternoon, Luo Rucai was really shocked by the terrible combat power of the Xingtian Army, the reason why he was able to survive in such a troubled era for more than ten years, this insight is indeed not covered, it is really not to praise him for being wise and resourceful, this vision is still quite wide, He also saw how serious the blow to the righteous army was how serious the eight kings were on this four-square, six-corner, ten-sided netting plan implemented by the imperial court, and the eight kings on this matter showed how severe the current situation was, and he himself ran from Shanxi to Yulin for most of the year, and then was driven from Yulin to Shangluo, and then was rushed to Yunyang by the official army, and finally was almost surrounded and annihilated by the official army in Yunyang, if he didn't see that the situation was not good and turned around and rushed out of the encirclement, then his result would not necessarily be better than Zhang Xianzhong. Zhang Xianzhong is at least still strong, and he can get a good one, and if he is not careful, he may be completely killed.

So at the moment, he can say that only by being here with Xiao Tianjian for the time being can he ensure his safety, if he doesn't agree to Xiao Tianjian, once he tears his face, he doesn't need Xiao Tianjian to clean him up, as long as he leads his troops to leave the Lu family, then what awaits him is probably the encirclement and suppression of him by countless officials and soldiers.

So no matter whether Xiao Tianjian invited him to join the gang this time or not, then he can only obey his orders and wait for the opportunity to see the opportunity later, and Xiao Tianjian is very polite to him, and directly offered such high conditions, promising to make him the deputy marshal, at least this reputation is not bad.

After thinking about it again, Luo Rucai gritted his teeth and said: "Thanks to Xiao Dashuai who looks up to me Luo, if I Luo doesn't know how to lift again, I will really be a vain person!" That's it! Just according to what the marshal said! Luo Mou see the handsome! ”

After saying that, Luo Rucai bypassed the table, walked to the center of the big tent, and clasped his fists with both hands to give Xiao Tianjian a deep salute, which can be regarded as a recognition of Xiao Tianjian's status.

And the subordinates who followed Luo Rucai saw that Luo Rucai had already expressed his stance that he wanted to take refuge in Xiao Tianjian, so they quickly stood up and walked behind Luo Rucai, and quickly knelt down to salute Xiao Tianjian one by one, saying that they were also willing to take refuge in Xiao Tianjian.

Xiao Tianjian laughed and stood up, hurriedly walked down in three steps and two steps, grabbed Luo Rucai's arms, asked people to sit next to him, let Luo Rucai sit down, and hurriedly picked up Luo Rucai's subordinate generals one by one, and comforted them with kind words, which can be regarded as everyone happy to return to their seats.

Many things in this world are paid attention to speaking by strength, Luo Rucai didn't look at the festival with Xiao Tianjian at the beginning, and later last year in the Battle of Jiezhou, Xingtianjun gave him another time to see death and not save him, forcing him to escape from Shanxi, but now people have to bow their heads under the eaves, the strength of Xingtianjun is here, as long as he still wants to take refuge under Xiao Tianjian's wing, then he can only listen to Xiao Tianjian's orders.

And the reason why Xiao Tianjian arranged for them to watch the drill of the third battalion of the horse infantry artillery under his command today was also to show his muscles to Luo Rucai and others in this way, and the effect achieved was much better than what he and Niu Jinxing Li Jinde and others expected, Luo Rucai is also a smart person, he did not object, and directly agreed to join Xiao Tianjian's command, so that many of the original preparations could not be used for the time being.

After sitting down, the generals on Xiao Tianjian's side also looked at Luo Rucai, and called Luo Rucai the deputy marshal, and Luo Rucai also responded to this title with joy on his face.

And Xiao Tianjian has never dragged his feet in his work, since the name has been finalized, he immediately discussed with Luo Rucai and others the issue of the reorganization of the three or four thousand troops under Luo Rucai.

In the end, after bargaining, Luo Rucai agreed to reorganize his troops into two battalions of the Xingtian Army, which were divided into one battalion each led by Fu Dashan and Dongshan Huhan, and were stationed in the area of Henghe in the south of Lushi County and Luanchuan Town in the east of Lushi County.

Originally, if it was according to Luo Rucai's original intention, even if the soldiers and horses under his command were reorganized, the person who commanded the troops would not fall on the head of the Dongshan Tiger Han side, but this time, because Xiao Tianjian showed a lot of importance to the Korean side, when arranging manpower, Luo Rucai could not refute Xiao Tianjian's face, so he had to hand over the first battalion to the Dongshan Tiger Han side to be responsible.

This time can make Dongshan Tiger very happy, he has been working under Luo Rucai for so many years, this is still his real self-leading army, and Han Fang has a straightforward temperament, but it doesn't mean that he is stupid, of course he knows that this time he was appointed as the general of the first battalion because of Xiao Tianjian's importance to him, and he was naturally a little closer to Xiao Tianjian in his heart, and hurriedly came out to thank Luo Rucai and Xiao Tianjian, patted his chest and promised: "Please rest assured that the marshal and deputy marshal will take this battalion of brothers well, We must not let these brothers lose their lieutenants! ”

Luo Rucai looked at Dongshan Tiger with an eager face, and felt slightly uneasy in his heart, this time the reorganization, Xiao Tianjian gave him a lot of face, did not disrupt his subordinates, and incorporated these veterans under his command into the old department of the Xingtian Army, and to some extent maintained a certain degree of their independence, which is also one of the reasons why he agreed to the reorganization, and Dongshan Tiger is obviously very grateful to Xiao Tianjian, so he doesn't know if the Dongshan Tiger battalion will be out of his control in the future, and will become Xiao Tianjian's side in the future.

But at the moment, he has no choice but to go down and quietly arrange, and he has nothing to say about such an arrangement, but he is unhappy that he will no longer be able to restrain Dongshan Tiger in the future, and Dongshan Tiger has become an equal to him, so he can only reluctantly come out to thank him, and retreat with a full stomach, but when he withdrew from the big tent, he still quietly turned his head and cast a resentful gaze at Xiao Tianjian, all of which did not escape Xiao Tianjian's eyes, And Xiao Tianjian only showed a playful sneer at the corner of his mouth.
