After sending He Shishou away, Li Zhi secretly said that the situation was not good, and when he returned to Fanjiazhuang, he checked the material inventory again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He found Zheng Hui and asked, "Has saltpeter gunpowder been replenished recently?" ”

Zheng Hui replied: "Originally, there was enough inventory in the library for more than half a year. At the end of last month, another batch of merchants from Tiantian and Tianjin entered, and now the inventory is enough for the Tiger Master for a year! ”

Li Zhi nodded, and asked again, "How long is there enough food?" ”

"There are 45,000 stones of rice and 21,000 stones of rice and flour, which is enough for the people in the city to eat for two years!"

With food and gunpowder, Li Zhi was not afraid of Luo Zhending's trouble, and he was at ease. It's really not good, and a war can support it for a year. As for these sick and weak brigades in Tian0jin, Li Zhi can occupy the entire territory of Tian0jin in three months.

In this chaotic year, there are soldiers in hand, and there is nothing to be afraid of. Luo Zhending really deceived people too much, and forced Li Zhi to let go.

On November 13, just two days after sending away He Shishou, who had gone to Beijing, Luo Zhending brought people to Fanjiazhuang.

Luo Zhending held a flag and waved a flag, and took fifty horseback riders into Fanjiazhuang, frightening the people on both sides of the road to avoid it. After entering the city, Luo Zhending looked east and west, and felt more and more that Fanjiazhuang was rich and coveted.

A staff member beside Luo Zhending pointed to the people of Fanjiazhuang and said:

"Your Excellency, the people of this Fanjiazhuang have no patches on their clothes, which means that they make new clothes every quarter. The teahouse restaurant is full of people, which means that they have a balance in addition to daily food, clothing, housing and transportation! is so rich, you can know the abundance of monthly money given by Li Zhi, and you can know the high profit of Li Zhi's industry! If you take these properties, it will not be difficult to enter the governor! ”

Luo Zhending very much agreed with the words of this staff member, but he snorted and did not speak.

Luo Zhending led a large group of men and horses to ride all the way to Li Zhi's official hall, and asked the servants and Li Zhi's family in front of the official hall to shout: "General soldier inspection!" Let your master come out and lead the way! ”

The family didn't know what was going on, so they hurried in to report.

Li Zhi got the report, and secretly said that this Luo Zhending was really anxious, He Shishou had only been gone for two days before he started, how short of money is this? The words he said in front of He Shishou were all forgotten in just two days? Li Zhi was not in a hurry to go out to see Luo Zhending, but gathered the family members in the official hall to prevent accidents.

Luo Zhending waited at the door for a long time without waiting for Li Zhi to come out, very puzzled.

After arranging the family, Li Zhi changed into his official uniform and went out to see Luo Zhending with dozens of family members.

Luo Zhending was already waiting impatiently outside, and when he saw Li Zhi turning his eyes sideways, he scolded: "Guerrilla Li Zhi, you actually made the official wait for a quarter of an hour, what a big shelf!" ”

Li Zhi said lightly: "The chief soldier is also a human being, so what about waiting?" ”

"You..."

Luo Zhending ate a turtle and wanted to have a seizure, but he was choked by Li Zhi's tough attitude and couldn't have a seizure. He flicked the sleeves of his official uniform and was about to walk into the official hall, but was stopped by Li Zhi's family members.

Luo Zhending looked surprised, and asked sharply: "Li Zhi, don't you let this official enter the door?" ”

Li Zhi said lightly: "The chief military officer came with so many people, and the momentum is violent, and I don't expect anything good." If you have anything to say, just say it here. ”

Luo Zhending was stunned when he heard this, looked Li Zhi up and down again, as if he had never seen him, and said loudly: "Do you know what the crime of neglecting to go to the peak should be?" ”

Li Zhi waved his hand and said: "It is also a crime to persecute subordinates, don't the chief soldiers know?" ”

Luo Zhending pulled his face down and said loudly: "Li Zhi, you are not going to hand over the glass secret recipe, are you?" ”

Li Zhi said: "The secret recipe is a family heirloom, and there is no reason to hand it over to the son, not the daughter!" ”

Luo Zhending sneered and said loudly: "Then don't blame the official for using force to search your entire city of Fanjiazhuang!" ”

Li Zhi snorted and said loudly: "This is in the jurisdiction of this official, and this official is not allowed to search!" ”

Luo Zhending laughed out loud and said, "I can't help you in this matter!" ”

He had already inquired about the location of the glass workshop, and at this time he threw down Li Zhi and walked towards the workshop area in the south of the city with his people. Seeing that Luo Zhen was determined to use force, Li Zhi immediately sent people to the workshop area and notified the soldiers of the 100 Xuan Feng Regiment guarding the workshop area to take action to defend against the enemy.

When Luo Zhending arrived outside the glass workshop, waiting for him was already a hundred soldiers of the Election Regiment with loaded bullets and bayonets. Those soldiers are all veterans of the Xuanfeng Regiment, they have experienced two major battles, their eyes are resolute and their movements are fierce, plus they are well-equipped, and they have a murderous aura on their bodies, which is not comparable to the fifty shrimp soldiers and crabs brought by Luo Zhending.

Seeing the soldiers of the Xuanfeng Regiment blocking the way, the family next to Luo Zhending shouted loudly: "Get out of the way, the chief officer searches Dongnu for details, who dares to stop it?" ”

The soldiers of the Elector Regiment did not get out of the way, and remained outside the workshop area.

Seeing that Li Zhi's soldiers were not afraid of themselves, Luo Zhending was so angry that his face turned red, and he personally shouted: "Get out of the way of everyone who knows me, and it is a capital crime to collide with the official's war horse!" ”

The soldiers of the Elective Regiment glanced at Luo Zhending, still blocking the road, only holding their rifles straight.

The soldiers of the Xuanfeng Regiment were originally family members, not soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. They took Li Zhi's private monthly money, not the military salary of the Ming Dynasty, and they only listened to Li Zhi's orders. What's more, Li Zhi usually pays attention to educating the Election Regiment, and always makes the Election Regiment understand that their existence is to defend their homeland, not to charge into battle for the Ming Dynasty, so the name of the Ming General Army can't suppress them.

The general soldier wants to rob the general's property, and if the general's property is robbed, there will be no money to pay the soldiers monthly money, and the good life that the soldiers envy will be lost. The soldiers all understand this truth, where will Luo Zhending be put in the past?

Seeing Luo Zhending's arrogance, the commander of the company commanding the front regiment shouted: "Defend your homeland!" ”

A hundred soldiers raised bayonets and shouted: "Wow! ”

The company commander shouted again: "Defend the homeland!" ”

A hundred people shouted again, "Oh! ”

The neat momentum and the murderous aura of the rest of the war frightened the people and horses on Luo Zhending's side for a while. Although the family Ding brought by Luo Zhending this year is also a veteran who has been honed for many years, he has never seen blood on the battlefield at all, and his momentum is not at all comparable to the iron and blood of the Xuanfeng Regiment. As soon as the 100 soldiers of the selected forward regiment shouted, Luo Zhending's men and horses were so frightened that they took a few steps back and stopped when they were ten meters away.

The formation of Luo Zhending and his party suddenly became chaotic and embarrassed.

Luo Zhending wanted to forcibly search, but was stopped by Li Zhi's family and couldn't enter the glass workshop, so he was not embarrassed. He looked left and right with a red face for a while, and was sulking there, but saw Li Zhi coming leisurely on horseback.

He hurriedly shouted at Li Zhi: "Li Zhi, come and disband your family!" ”

Li Zhi smiled and said, "How can the family protect the private property of the lower officials, how can it be dissolved?" ”

Luo Zhending scolded loudly: "Li Zhi, this official received a report from someone, saying that you harbored Dongnu and led people to search your glass workshop!" You led troops to obstruct your own officials, did you want to rebel? ”

Li Zhi said coldly: "Don't you know that even if it is a porcelain-burning one, its secret recipe will never be leaked?" Not to mention fired glass? If you are a chief military officer, you don't stay well in the Acropolis, covet your subordinate industries, and lead your family to rob other people's secret recipes, are you forcing people to rebel? ”

Luo Zhending seized the loophole in Li Zhi's words, laughed and said: "Okay! Li Zhi, you said it yourself, are you going to do the opposite? ”

Li Zhi shouted: "I don't think it's the Son of Heaven who has the final say, not you." ”

Luo Zhending said loudly: "Okay! Li Zhi, you secretly hid the Dongnu and disobeyed the inspection of the official, which is anti-will. This officer will go back and mobilize troops to bring you to justice! If you dare to resist, you are a rebel! ”

Li Zhizhi, Luo Zhending's unreasonable trouble, was angry, and scolded loudly: "Luo Zhending, don't deceive people too much!" Even if you transfer all the soldiers and horses of Tian0jin, I am not afraid of you! ”

Luo Zhending snorted coldly and shouted loudly: "Let's go back and transfer troops!" So he withdrew from the road from which he came with fifty horsemen, and went to the Acropolis of Tian0jin.
