Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Wating is bathed in the afterglow of the sunset, beautiful and peaceful, but the people on the tile are full of resentment and murder.
Zhai let out the anger. Li Fengyun's strategy worked, and he successfully rescued the Shan family, but pushed Zhai Rang and the Wagang people to a dead end. Next, Yingyang Mansion will definitely encircle and suppress Wating and exterminate the Wagang people. Cui's is still open, and the twelve ladies warned in advance, asking the Wagang people to leave Dongjun as soon as possible. However, although the world is big, there is no place for Wagang people to stand.
Of course, Zhai Rang would not openly drive Li Fengyun away, that would chill the hearts of his brothers and damage his reputation, and the Cui clan and the Dongjun magnates would not give up besieging and killing the Wagang people because of this. In this case, you can only bury your anger in your heart, and you must be open-minded, measured, and responsible. In addition, Zhai Rang and the Wagang people were jealous and afraid of the white prisoner in their hearts, and did not dare to provoke him at will and provoke him, so as not to bring disaster to themselves.
Although the two sides have only known each other for a few days, Li Fengyun has fully demonstrated his amazing strength, which is not only strong in force, but also outstanding in wisdom and strategy. Li Fengyun is also a gangster, and he is also a notorious thief, as well as his arrogant, aggressive, and lawless and violent character, which makes him extremely strong in acting for others, and this strength, coupled with the grace of helping Zhai Rang, Shan Xiongxin, Xu Shiyun and others, made him quickly win a place in the hearts of the Wagang people, and occupy a unique and important weight.
This is a world where the law of the jungle is the strongest, and strength determines a qiē. If Zhai Rang insists on staying in Dongjun and staying in Wating, he will have the advantage of the right time, place and people, and will inevitably be able to continue to lead everyone, and once he leaves Dongjun and flees to a foreign land, his advantage will be lost, how can he lead the Wagang Zhuxiong?
Zhai Rang's worries were gradually alleviated in the debate among the Wagang people about their future survival strategies.
The people he trusts and relies on the most, in addition to his own brothers, nephews and protégés, are Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shixian, these "fellow believers", although nominally the Zhai family is their benefactor and shelters them in the sphere of influence, but in fact, the interests between the two sides are too deep, and they have long been a community of interests.
Although Li Fengyun "took risks" to save Shan Xiongxin, Xu Shiyun and some Wagang people in this crisis, Li Fengyun's "freedom" was exchanged for the lives of the Wagang people, and they were both kind and righteous to each other, and they couldn't say who owed whom, so Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiyun would not turn to Li Fengyun as a benefactor because Li Fengyun saved their family, and what benefits could Li Fengyun bring them? Li Fengyun is mysterious, no one knows his past, and no one knows his secrets, which is a crisis in itself, and secondly, Li Fengyun keeps saying that he wants to rebel, he has nothing, gathering a group of people to rebel, burning, killing and plundering, of course it is good for him, but for Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiyun and others, there is no benefit, only endless disasters. In this case, how could Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiyun turn to follow Li Fengyun?
Zhai Rang was hit hard and his self-confidence was frustrated, so he was too worried, and Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shixian's consistent support for him not only made him feel extremely loyal to his brothers, but also made him quickly regain his self-confidence.
In the survival plan of the Wagang people, except for Li Fengyun, who insisted on raising the flag to rebel, everyone else supported Zhai Rang's strategy, went to Xingyang County and Liang County, and made a living by plundering passing ships on the South Canal (Tongji Canal) that traverses these two counties.
Li Fengyun couldn't help but ask, how long do you plan to do this? Isn't it glorious to be a thief? Is this your ideal life to live like this? Princes and generals, would you rather have a kind? Why can't you raise the banner of rebellion like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, climb high and shout, and create a new world?
The Wagang people ignored it, and Li Fengyun was a madman, a madman who was forced to a dead end by the powerful people of the current dynasty, and a delusional person who was bent on claiming the king and hegemony and then taking revenge on the powerful people of the dynasty. Today's Middle Earth is the unification of the Middle Earth, today's dynasty has a huge Weifu army, today's world is rich and rich, the national strength is strong, today's emperor with the Weifu army to conquer the north and south, the west and the east, all the conquers, invincible. To rebel in today's circumstances is pure foolish dreams and self-defeating.
The Wagang people quickly evacuated. More than 100 miles south of the straight line from Wating is Jishui. Dozens of miles south from Jishui, is the Tongji Canal that runs through Xingyang County and Liang County.
Xu is a shipping tycoon in Henan, and he is also the boss of the Henan Navigation Association, and all ships walking on the Henan canal must follow the rules of the guild, so that the Xu family's influence on the large and small rivers in Henan can be pushed. This time, the Wagang people evacuated with the help of Xu's power, and Xu's fleet docks were all over the north and south of the river, and after hundreds of Wagang people boarded the ship from different evacuation locations, there was no trace of it like a handful of sand and gravel sprinkled into the river.
The current Wagang people are mainly Zhai and his sons and nephews, protégés and former officials, including Zhai Kuan and Zhai Rang brothers, nephew Zhai Mohou, protégé Wang Ruxin, and friends Jia Xiong and Shan Xiongxin.
Xu Shichang had the protection of the Cui family, and appeared in front of the public in a grand manner, and continued to be his young proprietor of the Xu family, which provided convenience for the escape and survival of the Wagang people. Other local heroes, such as Wang Yaohan, Wang Bodang's brothers, Wang Dangren, Zhou Wenju and Li Deyi, were rescued because the Cui clan used very strong means to quickly quell the storm born in Dongjun, but with the example of the Shan family, they were all extremely low-key, and temporarily cut off the contact with the Wagang people, so as not to be caught by the government and miserably suffered.
Wagang people are weak and weak, they want money but no money, no people, no land, just like a group of lost dogs are wanted by the government and chased and killed, fleeing in all directions. And Li Fengyun always talked about Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. The ideas of the two sides can be described as very different, and there is no place for intersection at all.
Li Fengyun was very depressed because of this, locked himself in the cabin, except for eating and sleeping, he was not willing to take the initiative to accommodate the Wagang people, nor did he have the will to deepen understanding, eliminate estrangement and ease contradictions, which made the distance between the two sides more and more distant, but the two sides were forced to endure each other according to their own needs, and they could maintain the situation of coexistence for the time being.
At dusk that day, the fleet anchored at the canal wharf in Songcheng, the capital of Liang County.
Late at night, Li Fengyun, who was reading in the cabin, suddenly heard the sound of hurried horses' hooves, he hesitated slightly, put down the scroll, walked to the window, lifted the curtain and looked out. The moonlight is hazy outside, and the various lanterns on the pier and the ship emit dim light, making the night look softer and warmer. Several healthy horses galloped in, and immediately all of them wore dust towels, black robes, and black coats.
Li Fengyun's eyes showed a look of vigilance, and he looked more carefully.
The man in black drove his horse to the pilot ship of the fleet, and before he could dismount, a sailor on board asked in a loud voice. As soon as the man in black spoke, Li Fengyun heard that it was Xu Shiyun's voice. Li Fengyun secretly rejoiced, during this time he hid on the ship, after Shan Xiongxin, Jia Xiong and others disappeared 6 times, only Zhai Rang and Wang Ruxin knew him, but they really couldn't find a common topic with each other, so they were very depressed.
Xu Shiyun got on the boat, first went to see Zhai Rang and Wang Ruxin, and then entered the cabin where Li Fengyun lived, and after a little greeting, he took Li Fengyun and Zhai Rang and Wang Ruxin to sit together under the pretext of eating and drinking.
Zhai Rang was very generous, and did not deliberately reject Li Fengyun because of his disagreement with him on the concept of survival, but always regarded him as a member of Wagang, and called him together to discuss no matter how big or small. It is also a good thing to listen to opposing opinions at such a critical moment. And Zhai Rang's approach was deeply appreciated by Li Fengyun, and giving each other the necessary respect and trust was the reason why the two sides were able to endure each other.
"How's the situation in Hakuba?" Zhai Rang got straight to the point, and before the wine glass was raised, he went straight to the point.
"The pursuit is very strong, whether it is the imperial history or the county guard, before receiving the edict of the Eastern Capital, what should be done has to be done." Xu Shiyun showed a sad face, "Although the thunder is loud and the rain is small, but the pressure on the twelve ladies is too great, after all, the case of Baima is too big, after the envoy of the Eastern Capital arrives in Baima, he has to investigate anyway in order to give an explanation to the Eastern Capital, but now the culprit of the White Horse case has not only not been caught, but has fled without a trace, which is very unfavorable for the people of Shandong." ”
Zhai Rang was silent. Wang Ruxin, who was sitting beside him, couldn't help it, his eyes flickered, he glanced at Li Fengyun, who was eating and drinking, and stopped talking.
Wang Ruxin is in his thirties, with a medium build, a white face and a short beard, shrewd and capable, and has been a subordinate under Zhai Kuan for several years. He was very jealous of Li Fengyun and worried that Zhai would be burdened by him, so he repeatedly mentioned Zhai Rang to drive away the white criminals, but Zhai Rang refused.
"Does Choi have any hints?" Zhai Rang asked.
Xu Shiyun smiled bitterly, looked at Li Fengyun and said, "The Twelve Ladies vowed to cut off Brother Fengyun's head with their own hands, so they left the White Horse some time ago and chased south along the Tongji Canal. ”
Wang Ruxin laughed, a little gloating, "This is Cui's hint, Cui's target is Bai Lang." ”
Li Fengyun put down his wine glass, glanced at Wang Ruxin with disdain, and sneered, "If the Cui clan only has such a mouse's eyes, he will be dead a long time ago!" ”
Wang Ruxin suddenly changed color, and when he opened his mouth, he wanted to sneer at each other.
Zhai Rang hurriedly stopped, looked at Xu Shiyun and asked, "The Cui family is coming to Songcheng?" ”
Xu Shiyun looked solemn and nodded solemnly.
"Did she hear anything?" Zhai Rang asked.
Xu Shiyun shook his head, "She came to Song City with great fanfare, definitely not to chase and kill Brother Fengyun." ”
Zhai Rang's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and he suddenly smashed his fist on the food table, "Who is the traitor?" ”
Wang Ruxin realized the coming of the crisis, and his expression was a little flustered, "Ming Gong, it may be that there is something wrong with Han Xiangguo." ”
"Make an appointment with Han Sang-kook right away." Zhai Rang said decisively, "I must see him tomorrow." ”
