Xu Shichang found Zhai Rang and a group of brothers in Wating.

The local heroes in the north and south of the river raised their banners to rebel, especially the rebellion of Menghai Gong in Jiyin, which deeply shocked Zhai Rang and the Wagang brothers. Although Meng Haigong didn't know that Zhai Rang and the others were hiding in Jiyin City, after raising the flag, he still asked the King of Jiyang to be the brother of the Han Dynasty and the Wang Dangren of Waihuang, and invited the Zhai Rang brothers and the Shan Xiongxin brothers to join forces to fight against the Sui.

Fellow brothers have rebelled, the situation is changing dramatically, you continue to shrink your head and hide in the dark and wait for the opportunity, that's not right, it's not right to say that it's good to be cautious, to say it's bad to say it's cowardly like a mouse, you don't have the courage and guts you don't deserve to be the boss.

Zhai Rang couldn't sit still, anxious.

Xu Shiyun's arrival made Zhai Rang overjoyed. He urgently needed information from the outside, and he knew the purpose of Xu Shiyun's visit to Pengcheng clearly, and he believed that Xu Shiyun came in a hurry and must have brought 100,000 urgent and important news.

"Great drought?" Zhai Rang was quite surprised, but when his eyes fell on the post and saw the dark brown dry lake bottom, he was not surprised. As the saying goes, people are unlucky to drink cold water and stuff their teeth, and the same is true of this national fortune, once it encounters a catastrophe, it will be one after another, and there are even strange periodicities, and there will be several natural disasters every few years**, which makes the monarch and his subjects tremble.

Last year, the lower reaches of the river were flooded, and the middle reaches of the river were flooded, blocking the river and causing the water level to rise, causing the river to flow backwards, not only blocking the waterway, but also harming Gyeonggi. The pillar of the river has stood in the middle of the river since ancient times, and it has stood tall despite the impact of wind, rain and waves, but it collapsed last year due to continuous rainstorms, which in itself is a bad omen. Since then, all kinds of rumors and prophecies have been flying all over the sky, and the goal is directly aimed at the Eastern Crusade. The Eastern Crusade still began, and Middle-earth mobilized all its national strength to support this huge expedition, but if at this critical moment, Middle-earth suffered another drought, and the north and south of the river suffered another catastrophe, then it was foreseeable that the rebels would sweep through Shandong like a stormy wave, when the government had no energy to provide disaster relief. There is no way to live, and rebellion has become the last straw, and in the midst of danger, who does not grasp the straw?

It's just that there will really be a drought this year? If there is no drought and he rebels again, then when the Eastern Expedition is won and the expeditionary force returns, won't the Zhai family and his brothers be wiped out?

Xu Shiyun could not give an answer.

Li Fengyun's predictive ability, Brother Bai's mysterious power, Xu Shiyun will always hide in his heart and will never say it. It's not that Cui Shi gave a gag order, nor is it because this matter is absurd, but basic common sense. From Cui's point of view, a strange person like Li Fengyun can be met but not sought, and if he encounters it, it is the blessing of Cui's family, and this kind of blessing can only be enjoyed by Cui's alone. If there are more people to share, and the word spreads, and everyone comes to fight and grab, then it will not be a blessing, but a curse. "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty", this is the truth.

Xu Shiyun shared Cui's "blessing", and Cui's also acquiesced to his sharing, in a sense, this is equivalent to improving Xu Shiyun's weight and status in Cui's wealthy family, and he should be content. In Middle-earth, the Cui family is a big family, a wealthy family among the giants, and it is rare to have the honor to climb the Cui family and become an important role in the Cui family's affiliation, and once it becomes one of these rare families, then the benefits from it are incalculable.

Xu Shiyun had witnessed Li Fengyun's mysterious power, so he was convinced, but Zhai Rang didn't, in fact, even if Xu Shiyun told the truth, Zhai Rang still wouldn't believe it. Seeing is believing, hearing is false, Zhai Rang is not a drooping child, how can he be deceived casually?

Xu Shiyun could only fake the tiger and put Cui's out. Cui's strength is unfathomable, Cui's predicted that there would be a drought this year, and Cui's authorized Xu's to go to Jiangzuo to buy grain, so that the disaster could be relieved and the innocent could be saved.

This matter is credible, the wealthy families of Middle-earth have strong financial resources and reputation, and often give relief in times of great disasters, spreading the morality of "being kind and helping the poor" all over the world. But that doesn't prove that Choi's prediction was accurate, so what if it wasn't? The grain bought by the Cui family can be hoarded, and there is no turning back if the Wagang brothers rebel.

Xu Shiyun had already thought of a countermeasure and came up with a thoughtful proposal.

First of all, do not openly raise the flag, and do not openly burn, kill, plunder, and attack the city, but as in the past, loot the Tongji Canal, but no longer make a small fuss, but a large-scale looting, all grain, grass, weapons, gold, silver, silk, silk, as long as it is something that helps the team to develop and grow, all loot. If you want to raid the canal on a large scale, you must build an army, you must pull up the team, this is a necessary condition, otherwise how can you loot on a large scale? And how do you bring back what you have plundered?

How is the army built? The Wagang brothers all have their own manpower, many hundreds, and dozens of others, and most of them are the core strength of the local township regiments. Now organize them, form an army, unify command, and join forces to fight, so that they will form a fighting force. With an army capable of fighting power, the Wagang brothers can carry out large-scale raids and constantly expand and strengthen themselves.

If the shape shì exhibition is not good for the Wagang brothers, they will be reduced to zero, continue to hibernate, and wait for the opportunity.

If the situation in Middle-earth becomes worse and worse, and the situation is beneficial to the Wagang brothers, they will take the opportunity to raise the flag, use the plundered food and weapons, recruit people as soldiers, quickly expand the army, hold high the banner of anti-Sui, and try to dominate the great cause.

This construction is very in line with Zhai Rang's psychology of looking forward and backward, suffering from gains and losses, not raising the flag, not making the first bird, but also being able to quickly expand its strength, not only to protect itself, but also not to miss the opportunity, it can be said that there are many wins with one stone.

After the deliberations of many Wagang brothers, such as Zhai Rang, Zhai Kuan, Shan Xiongxin, Shan Xiongzhong, Wang Ruxin, Wang Dangren, Zhou Wenju, Li Gongyi, Wang Yaohan, Wang Bodang, etc., Xu Shixian's construction was finally perfected and a detailed implementation plan was drawn up, and the top priority was to build the army.

"Brother Bai's army is called the Cangtou Army." Xu Shiyun said, "Our army started from Wating, or it should be called the Wagang Army." ”

The name of Wating is too small and has no momentum, and although the name of Wagang is not bold enough, it has the spirit of gathering mountains and forests and occupying mountains as kings, and immediately won the unanimous consent of the brothers.

Xu Shiyun remembered Li Fengyun, that day, it was Li Fengyun who stood here, pointed to this swamp and said, this is Wagang, in the future, you and Wagang will go down in history.

I believe in my brother, I must achieve great things and leave a name in history.

Li Fengyun is crossing the Surabaya River at the moment.

By his side, in addition to Xu Shisan, who never left an inch, there was another handsome young man.

The young man's name is Xiao Yi, from the Lanling Xiao family. The Xiao family in the world came out of Lanling, and the Xiao family has entered its heyday since becoming the royal family of the Jiangzuo Qi and Liang dynasties. The Cui family and the Xiao family were married to each other and had close contacts. Considering that there are many uncertainties in the future situation, the Cui family is very much in need of Li Fengyun's mysterious ability to predict the future at a critical moment, and Li Fengyun expressed his sincerity in cooperating with the Cui family, so he decided to give Li Fengyun more help. So the twelve ladies made a temporary decision and put Xiao Yi, who was eating and drinking with him, as a secret envoy in Mengshan, so as to keep in touch with Li Fengyun at any time, and at the same time let Li Fengyun get some help from the Lanling Xiao clan at the right time.

Xiao Yi lives in Jiangdu for a long time, and he is a typical gentleman, who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, and he also makes friends with some inferior people and does some ridiculous and shameless things. The twelfth lady is Xiao Yi's aunt and cousin, and once when she went to Jiangdu, she happened to meet him while drinking flower wine and gambling heavily, and she was very angry, and immediately sent someone to beat some of Xiao Yi's inferior friends to the point that they lacked arms and legs, and finally threw them into prison together. The aristocratic children of Jiangdu couldn't afford to provoke the twelve ladies, so they put their hatred on Xiao Yi's head, and only one night later, Xiao Yi was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and there was nowhere to hide.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, but he was thrown into the mountains by the twelve ladies, and he was not familiar with the place, and he mixed with a group of vicious traitors all day long, which is not a human life at all. Thirty-six plans to go, Xiao Yi escaped in the middle of the night, but was caught by the patrol Fengyun guard, it was dark and he couldn't see clearly, and he raised his fist and beat him violently. Xiao Yi was beaten to death, and since then he has never had the idea of escaping, looking forward to the twelve ladies to "save" him.

Li Fengyun didn't expect that the twelve ladies would also "fool" people, and they actually threw such a fool by his side as a secret envoy, what kind of secret envoy is this? This is an ancestor at all, not only to take care of food and housing, but also to ensure his safety, if he dies accidentally, what will he explain to the Cui family? Li Fengyun had a hard time, so he handed Xiao Yi over to Xu Shisan.

Of course Xu 13 is unwilling, I have a lot of serious things, how can I have time to eat, drink and have fun with a gentleman?

Li Fengyun is angry in his heart, and he slanders the twelve ladies endlessly, if you dare to fool me, okay, I will accompany you to the end. He explained to Xu Shisan, you must protect this person, but as long as he is alive, you can do the rest, you must not treat him as the secret envoy of the Cui family, let alone treat him as a family gentleman, you should treat him as a gangster in Jiangdu, "train" him, "temper" him, until he becomes a qualified rebel soldier, your task will be completed, and your good luck will come, and the glory of the rest of your life will depend on this Jiangdu Xiao Lang.

Li Fengyun "fooled" Xu Shisan, and Xu Shisan actually believed it. Xu Shisan has admired Li Fengyun to the extreme, from a thief who has nothing, to pulling up the army and laying down the territory, but in just a few months, it is like a dream, and now he has secret contacts with the Cui family, the first wealthy family in Shandong, it can be imagined that with the help of the Cui family, the prospects of the righteous army are of course very good. Li Fengyun turned stones into gold, turned decay into magic, his ability was too great, Xu Shisan respected him like a god and obeyed his words.

After one night, Xiao Yat's nightmare was not terrible, but terrifying. Xu 13 became a demon, "tormenting" him day and night, making him worse than dead. In addition to the pain, Xiao Yi swore to kill Xu Shisan, eat his flesh and drink his blood. Xu 13 turned a deaf ear and still worked tirelessly to "practice" Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yat struggled in a nightmare, and suddenly one day he walked out of the mountains and appeared by a river with a strong current.

"Master, what kind of place is this?" Under Xu Shisan's "training", Xiao Yi not only lost the richness of the children of the family, but even his tone became humble and polite, especially for Xu Shisan, he was a "master", lest he would be tortured by the so-called "devil training" at night.

"Lu County." Xu Shisan's words are concise and to the point.

"What about the river?"

"Surabaya."

Xiao Yi looked at the soldiers of the rebel army who were crossing the river and asked, "Where are you going to cross the river?" ”

"Yangguan."

"Where's Yangguan?" Xiao Yi asked curiously, "Why do you want to fight Yangguan?" ”

Xu Shisan glared at him viciously and shouted, "Shut your mouth!" ”

"Why shut up?" Xiao Yi's eyes widened, acting like an idiot, and asked reluctantly.

Xu Shisan almost collapsed, who the hell is torturing whom? How could the Lanling Xiao clan raise such a wonder?
