"Zihui has gone astray again, we and General Li are two countries contending, each with its own mission. Whoever is injured in the hands of anyone has their own destiny, there is no need to be too attached to hatred! Li Mi saw that Fang Yanzao's face had turned blue, touched the criss-crossing scars on his face, and smiled to explain.

If you talk about hatred, no one has a stronger hatred for Li Xu in his heart than him. At that time, Li Mi was a phoenix-eyed silkworm eyebrow, a young man who walked like a tiger. Now he is scarred and staggering. It turned out that many people were impressed by the imperial bearing revealed by Pushan Gong as soon as they met, but now everyone who saw his appearance at first sight frowned. If this loss is carefully translated, it will not be counted for three days and three nights. But now is the time for the heroes to rise together, and Li Mi doesn't want people to feel like they have a small belly.

"What Mi Gong said is that his subordinates have been taught!" Fang Yanzao also instantly realized that he was out of shape, took half a step back, and bowed to Li Mi to thank him.

"If we want to compete for the world, we must first have the mind to tolerate the heroes of the world!" Li Mi smiled and continued to untie Fang Yanzao's knot.

"Didn't Mi Gong cherish his talents and want to take the Li thief under his account? This person has been deeply favored by Yang Guang, and I am afraid that he will not bow down easily! Fang Yanzao sighed and responded in a very unwilling tone. From Li Mi's words, he could hear that the other party took the enemy general very seriously in his heart. If this is really the case, I am afraid that there will be one more person in the Wagang Army who can compete with him in the future, and the resulting changes in power may inevitably be a lot.

"If he can see the general trend of the world, I will naturally meet him!" Li Mi habitually touched his face again, smiled and shook his head. "Looking at the entire Great Sui, there are only four famous generals who can be called Zhang, Luo, Yang, and Li. Now that Zhang Xutuo is the head, Luo Yi is rebellious, and Yang Yichen is entangled in the mess in Jiangdu, and only Li Xu is left in front of us. If you can capture and kill him in front of the horse, the moment when the Great Sui Dynasty will collapse will definitely be just around the corner! ”

"Therefore, Mi Gong strictly forbade the Waihuang Battalion and the Jiyang Battalion to fight, so as not to startle the snake, so that the surnamed Li will see that the situation is not good and slip away before the main force of my Wagang frees up his hands!" Zu Junyan thought about Li Mi's meaning, and his face showed an expression of sudden realization.

"Definitely!" Li Mi glanced at Zu Junyan and continued to shake his head. "This son is well versed in the way of using soldiers, and when Ren and Bodang fight with him in the field, I am afraid that there will be defeat and no victory, which will damage the morale of our army in vain!"

"Mi Gong is right! The humble post had previously mistakenly thought that Mi Gong was unwilling to let the Waihuang Battalion fight, because he was afraid that the surnamed Li would see a bad opportunity and run back to Hebei! Fang Yanzao listened to the coach's tone and didn't look like he was about to surrender Li Xu, a stone hanging in his heart finally landed, and he smiled and brought the topic back to Zu Junyan's proposal.

"As for Jun Yan's strategy of fighting with him, it is even more futile!" Li Mi glanced at Fang Yanzao with a smile, as if he had seen the small abacus in his heart through it. Turning his head, he continued to explain to several of his subordinates. "What Li Thief is now relying on is not a few thousand cavalry in his hands, but the official position of Henan Envoy. Even if our battalions on both sides of the canal go out together and are lucky enough to wipe out all the 4,000 soldiers under his command, as long as this person can go to Xingyang alone, I am afraid that within a few days, he will be able to take charge of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses again. Similarly, as long as we can prevent him from integrating the Sui army near Xingyang, with the four thousand elite horsemen under his command alone, even if they can be ten by one, he will not be able to threaten Wagang in the slightest. ”

Li Mi knew very well in his heart that the current situation was very different from the last time the Wagang army and the elite of Qi County fought on the canal. Last time, he was anxious to consolidate his position in the Wagang army, so he was greedy for merit for a while, and was taken advantage of by the Sui generals. And this time, it was Li Xu who was in a hurry to take charge of the Sui army in Zhulu, Henan, and he was able to wait for him.

Zu Junyan saw that Li Mi had already made up his mind about how to use troops, so he no longer insisted on his own suggestions. But as a bookkeeper, he has the responsibility to remind the mastermind to pay attention to some details, "Li Thief used the mouth of the defeated army to spread rumors and disturb the hearts of our army. Although Mi Gong already has a long-term strategy to break the enemy in his heart, for the unity of the soldiers of each battalion, he should also think of an emergency solution! ”

"Yes, it is better to persuade Zhai Lao to be in charge, ask him to make some concessions, and return Zhang Xutuo's head to his family, so as not to make a mistake with the surname Li again!" Shi Dejisu couldn't get used to the behavior of bandits like the Wagang Army who cut off people's heads and demanded ransom, so he saw the opportunity to advise.

"I should not notice it, it's not that Li didn't say anything to Zhai Lao's family, but that Zhai Lao's family hates Zhang Xutuo very much and refuses to listen to Li's advice!" Li Mi shook his head again and again, sighing.

Shi Deji listened to Li Mi's words and did not clearly accept his opinion, and continued to insist: "Tens of thousands of more pieces of meat may not make the main village fatten itself, and if you lose the hearts of the brothers in the outer camp, it will be worth the loss." Zhai Lao is also a hero, why can't he tell the difference! ”

At present, although Li Mi is the leader of the Wagang Army, Zhai Rang's status is transcendent, and he has great influence among the commanders of each battalion. Since this person had suffered a lot of injuries at the beginning of the cottage grass, he didn't have the energy to interfere in too many government decisions at the moment. It's just that when it comes to money, I've always been very tight. Not only did the spoils of each battle have to be divided according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, but his elder brother also repeatedly made it difficult for the Great Sui officials who came to take refuge and asked for money to join the gang, which greatly embarrassed Li, Fang, Shi, and Zhu, who had the intention of shaping the Wagang Army into a benevolent and righteous army.

Li Mi was angry when he saw it, and he also felt that it was not a way to continue to delay. He looked at Bing Yuanzhen, who had been immersed in official business and had not participated in the discussion, and then glanced at several former Sui officials who had just returned to Wagang, gritted his teeth vigorously, and said resolutely: "Well, since everyone thinks so, I will go and brush Zhai Lao's tiger beard again today." Zihui, after the ink on the military book is dry, you can send the horse to the Waihuang camp. Inform Bodang by the way, and tell him to endure for a while and not act rashly. Jiande, you follow me to Houzhai to see Zhai Lao's family, and move the coral tree we got last month. He endured a lot of hardships back then, but now that he has finally settled down, he likes to collect these rich things! ”

"Yes! Respect the order of the secret prince! Zuo Changshi Fang Yanzao and Cai Jiande, the commander of the guard battalion, agreed, and each went down to prepare. After a while, Li Mi took a few followers, carrying a blood-colored coral tree more than three feet high, and slowly came to the Wagang Houzhai where Zhai Rang lived. As the residence of the founder of the Wagang Army, it is much more luxurious than the Juyi Hall where Li Mi and others handle official business.

Hearing Li Mi come to worship, Zhai Rang greeted him at the gate early. He always believed that the other party was the true son of heaven who could replace Yang Guang, so he didn't dare to hold it up at all. Without waiting for Li Mi to step forward and salute, he took the first step to greet him, stretched out his arms, held the other party's shoulders and shouted: "Isn't Mi Gong busy with official business today, how can he have the leisure to come to see me, a patient?" Could it be that Mao Gong and Biting Jin have successfully conquered Luokoucang? ”

"How can it be so fast. The dog officials of the Great Sui have always taken food seriously. The first few times Meng asked them to rob at night, they only robbed a few small warehouses in the outermost part of the city. None of the 10,000-stone warehouses in the middle could get close. This time, Mao Gong went to the main warehouse again, and it must have taken a lot of effort! In front of Zhai Rang, Li Mi immediately changed to a rough image, and shook the other party's shoulders in response.

"However, although the big boss is assured, Mao Gong has never fought uncertain battles. He said that if he can conquer Luokoucang, he will definitely be able to conquer it. You and I are patiently waiting to hear his good news. After a few laughs, Li Mi continued, trust in his brother written on his scarred face.

"Why do you call me a big boss again!" Zhai Rang frowned, and relentlessly corrected the mistakes in Li Mi's words. "I said it a long time ago, you are the leader of the Wagang Army, not me Zhai. In the future, if you become the emperor, I will be content as a free marquis. Now there are more and more heroes in our village, don't mess up the order anymore! ”

"Hey, what Brother Zhai taught me is that the younger brother said it was smooth for a while, and he couldn't change it. Besides, in the mind of the younger brother, no matter when it comes, Brother Zhai will always be the big boss! Li Mi made a half-gesture and replied loudly. Speaking of the future, he touched the past, and his tone was already a little trembling, "Li Wuzhai (Ze) is not born." If it weren't for Brother Zhai's righteous acceptance, the younger brother's body would have filled the ravine, how could he have today's wealth? Therefore, this order is respectful and humble, let's talk about it in front of others. When we are the queen of people, there are only brothers between you and me, and there are no lords and ministers! ”

Zhai Rang listened to Li Mi's frankness, and he felt warm in his heart, let go of the arm that was holding Li Mi's shoulder, and then laughed and took the other party's hand. "I think at the beginning, Zhai was just a robber leader who sat on the ground and shared the spoils, if it weren't for you Li Mi, how would he be famous in the world? Master, recognizing you as a brother is the most correct thing Zhai has done in his life! It's worth it, and you won't regret it when you die! ”

The two looked at each other, and they both saw the meaning of fist in each other's eyes. Li Mi ordered someone to carry over the coral tree, saying that it was a gift from Xu Yuanlang, the Duke of Dongping, the day before yesterday, and asked Zhai Rang to accept it. Zhai Rang glanced at it roughly, then ordered someone to put the coral tree on the ground, and then complained to Li Mi with a smile: "The Dharma Master still don't send me these things in the future." You know I'm a poor life, and I can't tell the good from the bad! What everyone gave me was enough for my expenses. These valuables should be transported to Hedong to exchange for money and food to replenish military supplies! ”

"In the current chaos, who is willing to buy such a valuable thing? If Brother Zhai can't look at it, let the eldest brother keep it, I remember that he likes to collect rare things the most! Li Mi replied with a smile, "Back then, for the sake of our Wagang, he was forced to bankrupt by the government. Now that we have some savings, we should make up for him! ”

Zhai Hong, who was hiding behind Zhai Rang, had already been dazzled by the treasure light emitted from the coral tree, and was annoyed that his younger brother couldn't be a man, when he suddenly heard Li Mi change his words, he quickly jumped out, took the coral tree in his arms with both arms, and thanked him while rubbing his clothes, "It's still Mi Gong's heart, I'm afraid this coral was moved out of the Dragon Palace." I'll take care of you two brothers, one day you are short of money, come back to me to get it! ”

Seeing his own brother Zhai Hong like this, Zhai Rang could only sigh. He died in the rivers and lakes that year, causing his brother's property to be raided, and his two nephews starved to death. So after the incident, I really hope to make amends to my brother's family. Therefore, every time someone is rejected for a gift, Zhai Hong's name can easily be passed.

After Zhai Hong and the guards carried the coral tree away, Li Mi and Zhai Rang entered the door side by side, and reported in a low voice: "Xu Yuanlang wants to join our Wagang banner, I haven't promised him yet, what does Brother Zhai mean?" ”

"He has occupied the entire Dongping County, with no less than 100,000 people, and it is estimated that he will temporarily borrow our eaves to hide from the rain, and he will fly alone when his wings are dry. So it doesn't make much sense to say yes or not. I'm afraid that you won't be able to deploy him in the future, and we can't easily let him see the gap behind our back! Zhai Rang thought about it and proposed it based on his own experience in the rivers and lakes.

"I think that's the case, too. But if you don't agree to him, you're afraid of chilling the hearts of other people who come to defect! Li Mi sighed and said embarrassedly.

"Then he should come down and let him be in a battalion alone, and listen to the tune and not the announcement. Transfer the Wei Cheng battalion to the junction of Dongjun and Dongping, and guard the fox! If Xu Yuanlang and us are safe, we are happy to let him stay on the flank. If he has bad intentions, let Wei Chengying kill him immediately and merge his men! Zhai Rang didn't want to embarrass Li Mi, so he gave him a more compromise idea.

"Jiang is still old and spicy, I discussed with Zihui and them all morning today, and I didn't expect this good way to come!" Li Mi clapped his hands and laughed.

"You make me happy again!" Zhai Rang punched Li Mi's shoulder hard and scolded with a smile. Li Mi turned sideways to let go of his fist, slapped back with one palm, Zhai Rang dismantled his palm, and picked it up with another kick. The movements of the two of them are not very bright, and they are just for fun. After enough laughter, Zhai Rang thought about it, and Zhengse persuaded: "It's time for the Dharma Master to make a name." I heard that Dou Jiande proclaimed himself the King of Changle, and Gao Kaidao proclaimed himself the Duke of the East China Sea. If you don't make a big name again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to restrain the heroes of the world! ”

"It's not in a hurry, let's win two battles, make the situation bigger, and it's not too late to build a brand. Otherwise, it will be ridiculed to close the door and call the king just after occupying a few county seats! Li Mi was very disdainful of the behavior of Dou Jiande and others, and responded with a sneer.

"I don't know much about this, and I don't know much about it. I haven't read much, and I haven't seen the world, so I just talk about it. Where to go, you can make up your own mind! Zhai Rang's face was hot with laughter, and he explained curtly......

"I know that Brother Zhai is all for Wagang!" Li Mi found that he was speaking abruptly, and hurriedly tried to find a way to remedy it. "Brother Zhai's insight is a hundred times that of the surnamed Dou. You can calmly let me take charge of the great foundation, and this kind of open-mindedness can not be compared to the mere rats. Since I have taken over this burden from Brother Zhai, I will try my best to make it bigger. It's a short time, and Brother Zhai is also not fighting with others! ”

Zhai Rang was not a small-bellied person, but after listening to Li Mi's explanation, he nodded again and again. "That's good, if you have a charter in your heart, I won't have to worry about it. lest the brethren not know who to listen to! ”

"Everything needs more support from Brother Zhai!"

The two talked about it, and they got along very well when they talked about the general trend of the world. Referring to the recent development of Wagang Mountain, Zhai Rang suddenly remembered the disturbing rumors, pointed to the Qianzhai hidden in the pine and cypress, and suggested with a smile: "The last few times the people of the Zhang family came to ransom the head of the old general, you let me ask for a price to scare him away." Now they have gathered 50,000 pieces of meat, which will soon be delivered from the Yellow River. I think the resentment in the hearts of the brothers is estimated to be almost out at this moment, it is better to use a box to decorate the head and sell personal favors with the Zhang family! ”

"I came to Brother Zhai today for this purpose!" Li Mi secretly looked around, and found that there was no entourage following him, so he replied in a low voice.

"Is it still useful for Brother Feixian to hold a dead man's head?" Zhai Rang was very puzzled by Li Mi's reaction, and frowned and asked.

Li Mi nodded slightly, a bit of mystery appeared on his face, "Brother Zhai, hasn't anyone heard that Zhang Xutuo's protégé Li Xu only led 4,000 soldiers and horses, and then killed him to the side of the canal to avenge him?" “

"This kid is too deceitful!" Speaking of Li Xu, Zhai Rang's stomach didn't hit anywhere, and raised his hand to slap the trunk of the tree beside him, causing the remnants of snow on the dead branches to fall. At that time, Li Xu defeated tens of thousands of troops in Wagang with more than 1,000 horsemen on the side of the canal, and killed more than 100 generals in a battle. Although this battle was not personally commanded by Zhai Rang, he also regarded it as a lifelong shame. "When Mao Gong comes back, the three of us will personally go down the mountain to meet this surnamed Li and see if he has three heads and six arms!"

"Brother Zhai, don't be angry, he's sent to death!" Li Mi shook his head with a smile, and stopped talking.

"Sent to death? Could it be that the Lord of Laws already has a strategy to break the enemy? Zhai Rang listened to Li Mi's subtle words, and couldn't help but ask.

"The strategy to break the enemy is on the head of this person surnamed Lao'er!" Li Mi thought for a while, lowered his voice and explained, "He came in the name of avenging Zhang Xutuo, if we return the head so early, those who know outside will say that you and I are generous, and those who don't know will definitely think that our Wagang army is afraid of him." Therefore, the head must not be returned. When the people of the Zhang family arrive, Brother Zhai will not show up, let the eldest brother sit on the ground with him and raise the price, and make it difficult! ”

"However, this will inevitably be misunderstood by the brothers in the outer camp, thinking that we are greedy for money and do not care about their lives or deaths!" Zhai Rang didn't know what the inevitable relationship between the head and the strategy of breaking the enemy was, but the instinct of the Jianghu people made him think that this move was not above board. Any cottage will do the thing of hijacking people and kidnapping tickets. But the other party paid the ticket, and the cottage should be repaid. This is a rule passed down from the ancestors, and few people dare not follow it.

"It's okay, you just made it difficult for him for ten days and half a month, and in the end, we not only returned the head, but also sent the old general's head down the mountain in a beautiful manner with the gift of our predecessors. When people all over the world hear this, who dares not to say that you Zhai Da is righteous? Li Mi's eyes flashed, and clever plans came out one after another.

"The man surnamed Li can't see the head of General Zhang, and even if he encounters any setbacks, there is no reason to withdraw his troops. Let's wait for Luokoucang to be taken, and immediately concentrate our forces and fight his thousand cavalry with more than 40 battalions of men and horses. At that time, not only will the brothers know the good intentions of you and me today, but the heroes of the world will also understand that our Wagang Army is not something that anyone can afford to provoke! ”

With that, he put away his smile, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
