As soon as Kong Youde's family saw that the master was about to be kidnapped, they also drew their swords to surround Li Jiucheng, Li Yingyuan's people were guarding Li Jiucheng's outside, and the other ordinary battalion soldiers were in groups, and the camp gate was covered with blood, and the Dengzhou army had red eyes and could fight among themselves at any time.

Li Jiucheng said fiercely: "What are you doing?" We are all from Dongjiang Town, since Mao Shuai died, he was bullied everywhere, Lao Tzu can't bear it today, first kill all the dogs in Wuqiao, if you rebel with us, you and I will be rich and noble, if you don't want to, Lao Tzu will kill you first. ”

Kong Youde has been born and died for many years, and he also has a ruthless energy on his body, not only did not retreat, but glared at Li Jiucheng and said: "You try it, Lao Tzu frowned and was raised by you Li Jiucheng." Then he said to his family, "If he dares to kill Lao Tzu, you will break his father and son into ten thousand pieces." "Chapter Eighty-Four

Li Jiucheng's eyes flashed fiercely, he knew Kong Youde's temperament, no matter what, he would not give in to the current situation, but Li Jiucheng had no way out, he continued to put the knife on Kong Youde's neck, and said loudly to the soldiers around him: "We are all Liao people, Lao Tzu does not want to merge with you, Jiannu occupied our family, and fled all the way to the Dongjiang River, Mao Shuai led us to kill the Tartars, Yuan Gouguan killed Mao Shuai without evidence, and we arrived in Dengzhou again." He shouted, "What kind of life are we going to Dengzhou, in the eyes of the gentry, even pigs and dogs are not as good, and now we are forced to go to Daling River to die, you are willing to go, Lao Tzu is not willing to go." ”

He agitated, the Liao soldiers around him shouted loudly and did not want to go, some Liao soldiers also cried loudly, Kong Youde said badly, but Li Jiucheng said the truth, and he had nothing to argue.

Li Yingyuan saw the advantage, and said loudly: "We don't want to rebel, but the imperial court didn't give us a way to live, think about it, let's go all the way to the Daling River, and we don't even have food on the way, and when we get to Liaozhen, can those Guan Ning soldiers give us food?" Can we still die if we go to Daling River? This bird court is not worth our lives, we don't want to rebel, we just want to fight for a way to live, it's a big deal to go back to Dengzhou and take a boat to Dongjiang Town, it's better than selling Chapter 84 to Guan Ningjun. ”

The Liao soldiers clamored one after another, standing on Li Jiucheng's side, only Kong Youde's family members were still surrounding Li Jiucheng, but they were also a little shaken, Kong Youde was not good at words, and he couldn't refute Li Yingyuan, seeing that the soldiers were instigated by the Li family's father and son.

Li Yingyuan saw that the soldiers had been won over, but Kong Youde had the most families, if Kong Youde did not agree, it would still be the end of the fire in the end, and he would definitely not be pleased, his eyes rolled, he knelt down at Kong Youde with a puff, and said loudly: "Ask the general to lead our Liao soldiers to find a way to live, Mao Shuai has been fighting for so many years, what will happen, we don't want to give our lives to the court." ”

After saying that, he kowtowed vigorously on the ground, making a groaning sound, with this example, the other Liao soldiers knelt down, Kong Youde's eyes were black and pressed a undulating head, Li Yingyuan mentioned Mao Wenlong, many Liao soldiers cried loudly, full of sad atmosphere, Mao Wenlong did have illegal things in Dongjiang, but he always single-handedly established Dongjiang Town, giving hope to countless Liao people in the dark, these soldiers still regard him as a spiritual support in their hearts, Mao Wenlong's killing has actually affected the mentality of everyone in Dongjiang Town.

Kong Youde looked around the audience, a sense of powerlessness surged in his heart, now the people who killed the Wang family, if they continue to go to Liaozhen, whether they win or lose, their outcome is worrying, the soldiers naturally know the result of offending the civilian officials, no one wants to go to Daling River to die, with the current morale, the people in Shanhaiguan will run away, and they will also be beheaded.

His eyes were blank, Li Jiucheng saw Kong Youde shaken, and also let go of the knife, and persuaded Kong Youde in a low voice: "General Kong, we have had a lifelong friendship for many years, I heard in the north, there are more than 100,000 Jiannu, 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers, just with our current appearance, no one will collect the corpse when we go to Liao Town to die, and then the Guanning Army Liao salary is held, known as more than 100,000 strong soldiers, why do you want us Liao soldiers to rescue, the court is not afraid of listening to the tune now, only afraid of the powerful, the Guanning army dares to run in Beijing, Zu Dashou has not been beheaded, we can do the same, Grab a full on the road, go back to occupy Dengzhou, the court can only recruit us again, this is also our only way to live, when there are people with silver, wouldn't it be happier than now, even if we lose, the left and right are dead, what are we afraid of. ”

Kong Youde's eyes slowly converged, staring at this person who had cornered him, and said fiercely: "Did you lose all the money on your dog day Li Jiucheng, and now you want to drag Lao Tzu to die together?" Go and occupy Dengzhou, occupy your mother's occupation, Wendeng Camp is near Cangzhou, let's reverse, can you beat Chen Xin? ”

Li Jiucheng was trembling, he had been to Wendeng last year, and he was deeply impressed by the soldiers in the Wendeng camp who had trained like a machine, and the battle results were there, no matter how arrogant he was, he didn't think he could beat the Wendeng camp.

Li Yingyuan has been in Dengzhou, and he is more clear about the recent events, so he leaned over and said: "Lord Chen has been fighting with Lord Sun these days, and he may not be happy in his heart, he has always been good to us Liaomin, as long as we clearly say not to go against him, Lord Chen may secretly support us." ”

Kong Youde looked at the soldiers kneeling on the ground, now that they have been killed, the two of them can also make it clear, he actually has no way out, and said ruthlessly in his heart: "****, Lao Tzu has had enough, Da Linghe Lao Tzu is not going, but let's talk in front, let's grab and rob, we can't say rebellion, your mother's rebellion is so easy to make, as soon as the rebellion flag comes out, the emperor will not transfer the nine-sided army to fight Lao Tzu." ”

Li Jiucheng smiled and said, "We don't fight any banners, just rob it, at most, just like Zu Dashou back then, the court still has to recruit us, this murder will become a trivial matter, and we will not be held accountable." ”

Li Yingyuan immediately knelt on the ground and said, "General Kong, the lives of our thousands of Liao soldiers are in your hands." ”

Kong Youde sighed silently for a while: "The current situation has to be like this." ”

Li Jiucheng was overjoyed when he heard this, but he still didn't feel at ease and said: "Shandong's military equipment is relaxed, and the only thing to worry about is Nawen Deng's camp?" It happened to be on the side, otherwise we would take advantage of its unpreparedness, break it with one drum, and capture Chen Xin as a hostage, wouldn't Wendeng's people and wealth be all for me, even if I cut off one side, I would not be afraid. ”

Li Jiucheng's face was hideous, it seemed that he had taken over Wendeng, Kong Youde and Li Yingyuan shook their heads at the same time, Li Yingyuan said: "Dad, don't say that you can't beat Wendeng's soldiers, even if you can beat this gang, we will be seriously injured, and there will be fewer people at that time, and the road is thousands of miles away, I am afraid that we will be suppressed before we reach Dengzhou." ”

Kong Youde also said: "Wendeng Camp is not even afraid of Jiannu, and the thousand people of Shenmi Island are also a big victory against the thousand people of Jiannu, and now more than 2,000 are in Cangzhou, can our 3,000 people fight 2,000 Jiannu?" You better don't bother with Wenden's idea. ”

Li Jiucheng has always been fierce, but he didn't dare to insist at this time, so he had to ask the two of them: "Then what do you say?" ”

Kong Youde touched his chin, "Lord Chen, let's ...... like this"-

"Serve me as Lord? It's up to them to figure it out. In the Wendeng camp north of Cangzhou, Chen Xin threw Kong Youde's letter on the table and smiled at Zhu Guobin, the Dengzhou army finally rebelled, all his follow-up plans have been settled, and now the most important thing is to make these people feel at ease.

Chen Xin got the military information sent by the secret agents of the Intelligence Bureau early in the morning, and Kong Youde's department killed more than ten local people, and then burned down the house of the Wang family's servants, looted nearby, and is still stationed in the local area, without further action.

Their Tang Ma was one person and three horses, they came quickly, and it only took one day to find the Wendeng camp, and sent this letter that made Chen Xin cry and laugh, Kong Youde did not hide it in the letter, only said that he was oppressed and had no choice but to kill, and reviewed the experience of the Liao people over the years, hoping that Chen Xin would start an incident together for the sake of the same Liao people, so that the court could improve the treatment of the Liao soldiers, so that there was no need to go to Daling River, and their whole army was willing to serve Chen Xin as the master.

Zhu Guobin said in a low voice: "My lord, Kong Youde, they are no different from rebellion, we have to guard against them." ”

Chen Xin nodded, "You go and give the order to raise the alert level, the sentry horse will focus on the south, the intelligence staff officer will distribute the information on the military strength and equipment of the Kong Youde Department to the commanders, and the combat staff officer will start to prepare the plan." ”

Zhu Guobin agreed, and went out of the tent, and Chen Xincai said to the sea dog: "Tell Kong Youde to come in." ”

After a while, the sea dog came in a pond horse, Chen Xin saw that it was Li Yingyuan, Li Yingyuan, who pretended to be a pond horse, looked at the account, and saw that there were several guards, knowing that Chen Xin was on guard, for fear that Chen Xin would misunderstand, he immediately put on a low posture and said: "The villain Li Yingyuan, I have seen Lord Chen." ”

Chen Xin let out a long sigh, got up and helped Li Yingyuan up with his own hands, "Mr. Li Qian has worked hard all the way, your affairs in Wuqiao are all oppressed by the gentry, the official is deeply sympathetic, the official has also encountered countless injustices along the way, and he is quite angry in his heart, but he will not dare to agree to the matter of the official, you have to put pressure on the court, you can do it, and the official will never interfere." ”

Li Yingyuan relaxed slightly, as long as the Wendeng battalion does not send troops to fight, they are not afraid of anything, there are very few local soldiers in Shandong, and most of the province is still controlled by guards, and only some migrant workers can be sent to Guanning every year to work as coolies, and there is no combat effectiveness at all.

Chen Xin continued: "You know the matter between this official and Lord Sun, Lao Tzu doesn't want to go to Daling River, Guan Ningjun has millions of liao salaries, Lao Tzu has 30,000 or 40,000 taels a year, why save them, this time is not as good as the last time King Qin, Jiannu stared at our reinforcements to fight, went to nine deaths, you just have to do it, let the court learn some lessons, in the future, you Dengzhou camp is good, we Wendeng camp is good, life can be more comfortable." ”

When he said this, Li Yingyuan's heart was overjoyed, and he was overjoyed and said, "It turns out that Lord Chen thinks the same way. ”

Chen Xin smiled, "Everyone is not stupid, but this official will not make trouble with you, after all, Lao Tzu did not kill anyone, and when you want to recruit in the future, this official will be better to maneuver around." ”

Li Yingyuan thought about it, he was still a little worried about Chen Xin's inconsistency, and said tentatively: "Then what is Lord Chen's plan this time?" Is it possible to continue to go to Daling River? ”

Chen Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "Naturally, if you don't go, your official should not know, continue to march to Shanhaiguan, you don't have to worry about the official's tricks, going to Daling River will not benefit the official at all." ”

"Speaking of benefits, does Lord Chen have any other requirements?"

Chen Xin knew that he was still suspicious, and it was easier to be believed by a rough person like Li Yingyuan who was sometimes more straightforward, so he smiled at the moment: "This official will pass on the news to you, if you want to recruit security in the future, you can also use Guò This official can also deal with you, but what you rob, this official will ask for fifty percent." ”

Seeing Chen Xin's substantive requirements, Li Yingyuan finally believed in Chen Xin, from the perspective of interests, Chen Xin can not go to Daling River if he doesn't get out, and now he is thinking about sharing the benefits, but who makes people have strength, Li Yingyuan knows that his 3,000 people may not even be able to beat a thousand Wendeng camps, so he has to grit his teeth and say, "Give Lord Chen 30%, we are fighting with our lives, please understand and understand Lord Chen." ”

"At least forty percent." Chen Xin did the trick to the end, and stretched out four fingers, "Don't think that this silver can be eaten by one person, if your business is good, the adults of the Beijing Division must have a little bit of it, and there are many wang clans around here, Mr. Li Qian, you can make more money, the total number has gone up, and there are a lot of six achievements." ”

This bargaining made Li Yingyuan settle down in his heart, it seems that Chen Xin really wants to take the opportunity to make a fortune, but the silver is in his own hands, and he still has the final say on how much to give at that time, so he agreed ruthlessly and eliminated the strongest opponent with silver, Li Yingyuan felt that it was still a good deal. Moreover, these Dongjiang troops do not have any connections in the DPRK, and it is inferred from Chen Xin's confidence that he dares to fight against Sun Yuanhua in Denglai, Chen Xin must have strong reinforcements in the DPRK, and he does not really want to rebel, and if Chen Xin builds a bridge in the future, it will be an additional way to retreat.

He hurried back to tell Sù Kong Youde and the others, and when he retreated to the door of the big tent, Chen Xin's voice sounded behind him: "Mr. Li Qian, don't blame the official for not reminding you, don't fight those who hide the harvest, if the silver is less, the Jingshi side is not good, the adults have to force the official to attack you, then the official is not easy to say." ”

"Shameless." Li Yingyuan scolded in his heart, but Chen Xin's appearance is in line with his perception of military generals, they are all goods that ask for money and shamelessness, and this Chen Xin probably has one more life, otherwise how dare he dare to resist Jiannu with more than a thousand people.

Li Yingyuan turned around and said: "General Chen, just rest assured, the silver will definitely be delivered, but we also have a worry, the Wendeng battalion is unparalleled in combat strength, everyone knows it, and I also ask Lord Chen's army not to get too close." ”

Chen Xin laughed and said: "That's natural, the official said that he shouldn't know about you, and he will continue to march to Shanhaiguan tomorrow, and the official also reminded Li Qian that Shandong is the richest by the canal." ”

Li Yingyuan smiled knowingly and withdrew from the tent. (！！！
