In the village, there are several brick houses with better conditions, which are the residences of Li Tianwang and other core teams, at this time it is not dark, the house has been extravagantly lit with oil lamps, from time to time there are attendants who come in lightly, put down a plate of hot dishes and soup, carefully cover the bowl, and then withdraw lightly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 There were six or seven people sitting in the room, discussing things softly, and all the leaders with heads and faces under the command of Li Tianwang were here.

"Third Brother Ma, you are in charge of the scouts in the army, and the news belongs to you the most well-informed, what is the recent movement of the surnamed Cao, you have to tell everyone." They are thieves, and they are especially concerned about the movements of the imperial army, especially the elite troops, and they must report this information to the high-level leaders in a timely manner.

"What else, that evil star has killed a lot, played enough prestige, and earned enough credit, and now he has crossed the river to plague the Shaanxi territory." A thin man came back slowly, with a scar on his face, from his forehead to his nose, and even his left eye was pulled out of shape, and his already unflattering face was even more hideous.

"Damn, this bastard surnamed Cao has finally left, with him staring at Shanxi, his neck feels cold and panicked." This court official surnamed Cao was thought to be an extremely rare fierce general, so much so that his prestige made these men who were not afraid of heaven and earth fearful.

"Du Lao Er, look at your bear-like, what's so great about his surname Cao, he hasn't come to the front yet, he scares you like this, if you get to the front, do you have to kneel down and shout dad on the spot, ah?" A strong man with a full face and beard seemed to have a grudge against the man who spoke, and his mouth was so poisonous that he could anger people to death, and when he heard his words, the room burst into laughter.

The man who was ridiculed was not annoyed, he just squinted his eyes and looked at the strong man, and said in a weird manner: "Sun Erpole, you are so bullish, do you dare to put the surname Cao right?" With his 3,000 fine horsemen, do you have the ability to beat others? Standing and talking doesn't hurt you. ”

Everyone thinks so, no matter how unpleasant the surname Cao is, but this official surnamed Cao, as well as his three thousand elite horsemen, is really first-class and strong, everyone thinks very highly of themselves, but no one will feel that they are better than others, and they are not even on the same level. The scar-faced man who was in charge of the scout's affairs in the army, Brother Ma, interjected: "Do you still remember Wang Jiayin, the leader of the king? That's a well-known good man, I heard that this time it was also planted in the hands of Cao. ”

"It's a pity that Leader Wang, I heard that there was an incident in Shaanxi, and he was the first to take him as the leader, and he made a big noise, and he came to us earlier to recruit us, but the eldest brother didn't agree. At that time, I had the impression that this person was extremely cautious and cautious, and he was brave and good at fighting, so why did he plant it? Even if the surname Cao brings all the elite horses that are one in a hundred, if they can't fight, they won't be able to escape, they are all old people. ”

"Who knows? There is news that it is to buy the cronies around him, so he got the hand. Third Brother Ma said uncertainly, and then said angrily, "That guy is also lucky, I heard that with this merit, he has been promoted to the chief military officer, and he is damn good." ”

"Grass, this surnamed Cao is really a work, how many things is the yin person behind it?" After listening to everyone's discussions, the strong man named Sun Erpole scolded disdainfully, "Give it back to his mother's Liaodong fine horse." If the court of the dog * day also gives my grandson a few million taels of silver every year, Lao Tzu can also get a team of elite horsemen, and he is sure to be more powerful than him, what is there to worry about. Now mentioning him one by one is as if he is the number one general in the country,, grass. ”

After scolding, he was still angry, and spat fiercely before he was willing. Speaking of the official surnamed Cao, everyone is angry, seeing others being promoted and making a fortune, the spring breeze is proud, but he can only be a strong thief, he has eaten the last meal and has no next meal, and there is no tomorrow after today, plus the bullying he has suffered in the past, the new hatred and old grudges come up together, and they all grit their teeth with hatred, and they have no choice but to bare their teeth alone, and people don't even know it.

"Okay, okay, everyone is gone, so there's no need to talk about him, let's talk about what we're doing. Seeing that the wheat will be ripe in half a month, and the eldest brother doesn't know what to do, how will we live this year? After all, it was not a happy thing, and the atmosphere was not good, so some people diverted the topic and returned to their plans for this year.

At this moment, a person lifted the bamboo curtain and walked in, and when the people in the room saw him, they all got up to greet him affectionately, and made a noise, the person seemed to be not good at words, and kept arching his hands, laughing, and lively for a while, and then quieted down.

"Second Brother Zhao, you are in charge of the overall situation, and now you are about to harvest wheat, does the boss have any plans this year, do you still want to fight Puzhou?" As soon as the man sat down, someone asked impatiently. Most of the robbers have to get by, and when they think of it, they grab a handful, so there is no long-term plan. But they are different, they are not ordinary robbers, everyone has long thought that they are a rebel army, although because the number is too small, the activities are more careful, and have not yet attracted the attention and encirclement of the higher levels, but they always have to go that step.

"Puzhou is definitely going to be defeated, do you need to say this?" The second brother Zhao sat there and talked eloquently, like the Confucianism invited by a big family in the countryside to give a lecture, very gentle, and it was really conspicuous in a group of hills, but everyone still listened to him, "If you want to do a big business, Puzhou is better to fight." The silver, grain, armor, weapons, and other messy materials in the treasury of the state and city government, craftsmen and the like are enough to make our strength turn several times, how can this piece of fat on the side of the mouth be given up. ”

After saying something, he picked up the herbal tea on the table, poured a few big sips, and then said: "Moreover, everyone knows, Wang Shiqi is in the state city, do you think the eldest brother will let him go?" ”

After listening to his analysis, everyone agrees with the rules of China since ancient times, the instinct of the centralized government, and the material wealth is gathered from the top to the top, and the capital is the final gathering place of the world's wealth. In the same way, in the territory of Puzhou, the richest and most abundant place is naturally the political center of the entire state, Puzhou Prefecture, Puzhou City.

"It's also a place where the army gathers, and it's not so easy to fight." In the east of it, it is an important town in the Central Plains, the center of the world, Luoyang, in the west of it, it is the gateway to Guanzhong, Tongguan, such an important place, even if it is located in the interior, it has been peaceful for a long time, but the imperial court garrison is not less, not to mention that now there is chaos, there are more garrisons, where is it so easy to fight.

"Just those three or four thousand officers and soldiers, I have never seen real guns and real knives, and as soon as they go into battle, they will be strained, and the top birds will be used." Sun Erpole said disdainfully, how could he not know what kind of birds the officers and soldiers in Puzhou City were, and how could he be able to see it.

"It's useless, but it's a pity that those shrunken turtles hide their heads tightly, and they don't come out alive or dead, it's really a headache."

"That's because these officers and soldiers are self-aware, they dare to come out, and they can't even have bones left."

"Isn't that nonsense, if that group of officers and soldiers has the courage and ability to come out to fight in the field, where will there be a place for us to stand in this Puzhou."

"I suffered a lot last year, and I was bitten off seven or eight hundred people in one go, and the officers and soldiers were naturally frightened, and in the future, no matter how you tempt them, those grandchildren will not come out."

"Yes, it seems that if you want to take down Puzhou, you can only fill it with human lives."

As soon as it came to the attack on Puzhou, everyone became lively, with their elite foundation on the nine sides, even if the armament is very poor now, and the combat power is greatly reduced, they will not be afraid of the officials and troops in the mainland, but the siege is not like that, but they have few people, and they cannot afford to lose manpower.

"Speaking of siege, I heard a great idea today." Second Brother Zhao, who had been smiling and listening to the discussions, suddenly interjected, and everyone stopped talking to see what good ideas this resourceful Second Brother Zhao had again. I only heard him say, "All the brothers want to know that the eldest brother brought back two young people today, and this idea was came up with by one of the young people." ”

The second Sun pole was anxious, and he didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, so he hurriedly interjected: "Second brother Zhao, how did you become two people, isn't it just Wu Yong's little brother?" ”

"Second pole, you don't know if you have good news, don't you know that the eldest brother brought back a little white face today?" Seeing that the second pole was lonely and unheard, some people laughed at it.

"Day, the little white face is used as a bird, do you sell your ass?" Sun Er said angrily, the little white face is the most annoying.

"Second pole, you guessed wrong this time." After listening to Sun Erpole's angry words, then Second Brother Zhao is not annoyed, who doesn't know this guy's temper, otherwise how could he be called Erpole? He continued, "The idea came from this little guy. When I came back in the afternoon, my eldest brother asked me specifically, I think, this idea is really good. ”

Listening to this idea, Second Brother Zhao said okay, everyone was aroused curiosity, Second Brother Zhao only joined the gang last year, but now that he is the second-in-command, everyone is convinced, this is not something that can be done by nepotism. His vision is very reliable, and under curiosity, everyone is urging.

"It's a stone thrower." Seeing that everyone was in a hurry, Second Brother Zhao stopped selling Guan Zi and said the good idea straightforwardly.
