Chapter 260: Secrecy
Listening to Xing Hongwolf's narration, Li Zicheng's brows were sometimes furrowed, sometimes stretched, and he was always looking at Wang Ziyong with a complicated expression, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, feeling a lot, a generation of heroes fell so lonely and silently.
"General Li Chuang, before the alliance leader died, he made a special exhortation, hoping that you can accept us survivors and join the Li family's army."
After Xing Hongwolf said this, his eyes flashed with inexplicable brilliance, looking at Li Zicheng expectantly, and most of Wang Ziyong's surviving subordinates were the same, Liu Fangliang was even more excited, and frequently handed over his eyes to Li Zicheng, looking like the boss was about to agree, this is 20,000 people.
However, Li Zicheng was still the same, unmoved, his expression did not change much, he just raised his eyes and quickly glanced at those who survived, most of them were embarrassed, looking sluggish, and sad about losing their leader.
In the end, Li Zicheng's gaze lingered on Xing Hongwolf and Eight King Kong, who were second only to Wang Ziyong, and his lips opened lightly, and he said slowly: "Everyone, more than 20,000 brothers, to tell the truth, no matter who it is, if there are 20,000 more troops at once, every leader will be very happy, and I can't wait to take them under my command immediately, and I, Li Zicheng, am naturally no exception." ”
In an instant, hearing Li Zicheng's words, some people were happy, some people were worried, and their reactions were mixed.
"However, the leader of the Wang League has just died, and he has not yet entered the ground for peace, and there is a big revenge that has not been avenged, how can I, Li, take advantage of the danger of others at this time and bring everyone under my command?"
"Brother Li, what do you mean by confusing me? Could it be that you still don't look down on our remnants of the defeated army? Xing Hongwolf was secretly anxious, and couldn't help but interject and ask a few words.
"Hey... Chief Xing, brothers, I, Li Zicheng, don't mean that. Li Zicheng knew that he was not good, and he didn't express it clearly, which caused a misunderstanding, and after he hurriedly said a word, he further added: "It's not that I look down on all the brothers, but I want to avenge the blood hatred of the lord of the Wang League, and then talk about the matter of going to stay." Of course, I am honored and very welcome for my brothers to join Li Jiajun. But not all brothers think so, and there are some who want to be original and lay a foundation for the world. ”
However, at this moment, Li Zicheng's words just fell, and without waiting for others to respond, Ba King Kong was the first to stand up and said in a rough voice: "Boss Li, in addition to the alliance leader, you are the first person who makes me admire Ba Kong from the bottom of my heart, not only is he affectionate and righteous, but he is even more convincing in doing things!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Xing Hongwolf on the side just wanted to say something, but Ba King Kong seemed to think of something, and said again: "Boss Li, no matter what others think, what the final decision is, as long as you can avenge the alliance leader, no matter whether you succeed or not, from now on, I, Ba Kong, will follow you with all my heart!" ”
Obviously, just these words, Li Zicheng has already won the approval of the Eight King Kongs, as well as the vote under his command.
"General Li Chuang, what the Eight King Kong said is exactly what I, Xing Hongwolf, want to say, from now on, Xing Hongwolf will follow you, and will never betray the Li family!" Xing Hongwolf was also very moved, his expression was very moved, and after agreeing, he seemed to think of something, his face showed a deep groan, and he said in a deep voice: "General, I know that you really want to avenge the alliance leader." However, you have just come back, and you still don't know anything about the situation in Huaiqing Mansion, the imperial court has gathered tens of thousands of troops in the three mansions of Huaiqing Mansion, Weihui Mansion, and Zhangde Mansion in Henan, so you must not act impulsively and recklessly. ”
Liu Fangliang couldn't bear it anymore, and then echoed: "Yes, boss, not only that, the official army led by Cao Wenzhao is stationed in Zezhou, eyeing the north of Huaiqing Mansion, once there is an emergency in the three prefectures, he can quickly support, and Zuo Liangyu, Li Bei and others form a flanking attack, we can't act lightly." ”
"Hey... When did I say I fought hard with them? Li Zicheng waved his hand to stop the few people who were still going to continue to persuade, and then said coldly: "Even if you can't kill Zuo Liangyu and Deng Xi, you must use the blood of the officials and soldiers to pay tribute to the spirit of the king alliance leader in the sky and comfort his old man." ”
Without waiting for the others to say anything, Li Zicheng's expression suddenly became hot, and he asked instead: "By the way, Leader Xing, do the other rebel leaders know about the death of the leader of the Wang League?" ”
"Nope." Xing Hongwolf shook his head, his expression reappeared sad, and explained, "The alliance leader only passed away yesterday, and we haven't had time to inform the other rebel leaders. ”
At this time, Man Tianxing, who had been silent all along, suddenly added: "Moreover, the situation is very chaotic now, even if we have the heart to inform the other rebel leaders, we don't know where they are?" How do I be notified? ”
"Isn't there a single rebel to hear from?" Li Zicheng had a bad feeling in his heart, and his face was full of doubts.
"General, it's like this, it's not that you don't know where all the rebel armies are, and you also know where several rebel armies are."
Although his heart was full of doubts, Li Zicheng did not ask, he knew that Xing Hongwolf would tell the reason.
"The whereabouts of the rebels that we know of, without exception, are all wandering in Shanxi Province around Pingyang, Lu'an, Zezhou and Liaozhou. However, Cao Wenzhao was stationed in Zezhou, blocking the road into Shanxi."
Hearing this, Li Zicheng showed surprise on his face, and couldn't help but say, "Okay... If that's the case, that's great. ”
"General Li Chuang, what do you mean by this?" Xing Hongwolf's brows furrowed slightly, and his expression was a little not very good-looking.
"Hehe... Leader Xing, brothers, don't get me wrong. Li Zicheng hurriedly threw out a sentence of coping, smiled faintly, looked straight at Xing Hongwolf, and asked without answering: "Leader Xing, as an old seniority, I don't know if you still remember the situation after the death of Leader Wang Jiayin, and the situation of the rebel armies from all walks of life?" ”
"What do you mean...?" Xing Hongwolf's heart moved, showing a look of understanding, as if he had guessed something, and asked with deep meaning, and his expression eased a lot.
"Xing Red Wolf, yes, that's what I meant." As if he had guessed what Xing Hongwolf was thinking, Li Zicheng replied affirmatively, and then continued in a deep voice: "Leaders, don't forget, when the leader of Wang Jiayin was betrayed by traitors, there was civil strife among the rebel army, which gave the officials and troops a chance, and as a result, some large and small rebel armies were wiped out. ”
"Therefore, I think that before the situation is stabilized and the situation of the rebel army is eased, the news of the death of the king alliance lord must be kept secret. The reason for this is not only to stabilize the other rebel armies, but also to better avenge the alliance leader. ”
"Brother Li, keep the news of the death of the Lord of the Wang League secret, what does this have to do with revenge?" The Eight King Kong asked with a big stab, full of puzzlement.
"The relationship is very simple, once the news of the death of the lord of the Wang League spreads, not only will the rebel army in the vicinity be in turmoil, and they will be more inclined to surrender the official army, but it will also make the momentum of the official army soar, Zuo Liangyu and Deng Xi will be more cautious to prevent our stormy revenge. At that time, if we are taking revenge, the price we will have to pay will be even greater. ”
After Li Zicheng replied without hesitation, he saw that everyone showed a sudden expression, and then his tone was closed, and he said loudly: "Okay, the deceased person pays the most attention to one to enter the earth for peace, let's hurry up to dig a grave for the lord of the Wang League, and let him rest in the ground as soon as possible." ”
