As soon as Gao Yigong finished speaking, everyone calmed down, and while they knew it in their hearts, they all looked at Li Zicheng, and Xu Xiake even asked: "Boss, since those people are plotting against our Flying Dragon Chariot, and the momentum is so big, there is a posture of not giving up until the goal is achieved, how are you going to reply to these people?" After all, if they all refused, it would be tantamount to offending all the leaders of the 36th Battalion. Our previous efforts will all be in vain, and it will be difficult to integrate into the 36th Battalion. ”

At this moment, almost everyone has a common heart, that is, the Wyvern Chariot must not be handed over! Even if you have to hand over or share the Wyvern in the end, you can't give in so easily.

After all, that was the magic weapon for Li Jiajun to attack the county seat, and it was the guarantee for Li Jiajun's continuous development of strength.

In the scorching eyes of everyone, Li Zicheng's answer was completely unexpected by them.

"Refusal? Why refuse? ”

After a pause, Li Zicheng looked careless, plucked his ears, and then continued: "The Flying Dragon Chariot, although it is a great weapon for siege cities, is not the only one, and it is impossible to keep its production process completely secret, let alone conquer everything. As long as the leaders of those rebel armies put some thought into it, continue to pay attention, and send some skilled craftsmen to observe it, they will probably be able to make it. ”

"But, brother-in-law, it's a while to be able to monopolize the Wyvern Chariot. As long as those rebel armies don't get the Flying Dragon Chariot for a day, we will have a great advantage and can capture more cities and strengthen the Li family's army. Gao Yigong couldn't help but interject, his face was full of unwillingness, and the others were equally affectionate, but they didn't speak, they were all watching what Li Zicheng said next?

"Hey, hey... Why be so stubborn? We won't stay in Shanxi for too long, and we won't stay in Pingyang for more than ten days. If it's fast, in a few days, we will have to march to other state capitals in Shanxi, and the big guy of the Flying Dragon Chariot is very inconvenient. ”

Gao Yigong wanted to say something and refute it, but was stopped by Li Zicheng waving his hand.

"Yigong, not only you, but also Wu Ruyi, Dang Shousu, Liu Tichun, and Liu Fangliang also think so, and I can understand it. However, you must know that the strength of one person is limited, and no matter how great the development of the Li Jiajun is, it is still unable to confront the official army head-on. Only when the overall strength of the 36th Battalion is raised and the imperial court is busy, can we have more room for development. ”

When others didn't quite understand, Xu Xiake had already understood what Li Zicheng meant, and he thought it was true and agreed very much.

"Yes, what the boss said is right, a big family is not big, only when the 36th battalion of the rebel army collectively grows, can the Li family army develop more smoothly. After all, once our family is dominant, we will be regarded as the target of key encirclement and suppression by the official army, and the former alliance leader Wang Jiayin is not a clear example? ”

Tian Jianxiu followed, nodded frequently after listening, and also agreed.

"If those leaders get their hands on the Wyvern Chariot, they will be impatient and will frantically attack the city, grab more profits, and expand their forces to absorb the rebels. At that time, most of the energy of the imperial court will be contained by these people, and we can calmly and secretly develop more troops, without attracting the attention and key attacks of the imperial court. ”

At this point, everyone already understands very well, and while agreeing in their hearts, there is some unwillingness, but Li Zicheng smiled mysteriously at this time and said slowly: "What do you have to be unwilling? I didn't say no, and I didn't mean that I gave them the Wyvern Chariot for nothing. ”

Hearing this, Gao Yigong's eyes lit up, and he said fiercely: "Yes, you can't cheap them, you must let these old foxes bleed and feel the pain in their flesh!" ”

Li Zicheng nodded, and did not continue to entangle on the matter of the Flying Dragon Chariot, but turned his head to look at Xu Xiake and Tian Jianxiu, and explained solemnly: "Mr. Xu, Jianxiu, you should move faster, try to distribute the excess food to the people, and as for the extra silver, all the excess silver will be exchanged for silver tickets." ”

Liu Fangliang suddenly interjected, looked stunned, and asked suspiciously: "Boss, except for a few taels of silver rewarded by each soldier, according to the past practice, don't we all give all the excess silver to the people?" How do you ...... now? ”

Everyone's reactions were different, except for Tian Jianxiu, Wu Ruyi, and Liu Fangliang's expressions, but the expressions of Dang Shousu, Liu Tichun and others were very calm, and they felt that there was nothing strange about leaving so much silver, and the other rebel armies were like this, and some were even worse, just opening a warehouse and releasing a little grain from the government, and taking the rest away.

Without waiting for Li Zicheng to answer, Xu Xiake explained: "Captain Liu, it's like this, there is nothing to distribute food to the people. However, if too much money was given to him, it would be a disaster, and the people had a surplus of silver, not only to guard against the covetousness of the bandits, but also to worry about the government to take it again. In that case, it is better to leave them a small amount of loose silver, barely enough to survive. ”

"Oh... So that's the case..."Liu Fangliang nodded suddenly, and the others also suddenly understood.

Immediately afterwards, Li Zicheng began to arrange many matters, who was responsible for sweeping away the bullies and local tyrants and inferior gentry in the Daning and Xizhou areas, who was responsible for recruiting troops, who was responsible for dividing the land, distributing grain, and so on.

Five days later, in the east of Xizhou City, about five or six miles in a relatively flat area, there were twenty flying dragon chariots in the middle, strange structures, high bodies covered by a layer of black cloth, only the top platform and the lower chariot were exposed, attracting everyone's attention.

With the Flying Dragon Chariot as the center, all the rebel armies in this area of Binh Duong Prefecture are gathered, not all the rebel armies of the 36th Battalion are here, and there are only more than 20 teams, different in size and uneven strength.

The large rebel armies were in one place, and the smaller rebel armies were united and formed alliances. The leaders of the rebel army who came with this money are all ready to fight, no matter how much money they spend, they are bound to get the Wyvern Chariot!

When Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong and others were observing the flying dragon chariot, Li Zicheng let Gao Yingxiang and Wang Ziyong into his tent, and the three of them talked secretly.

At this moment, Gao Yingxiang's expression was very unnatural, more precisely, it was a little ugly. The reversal and reversal of roles made it his turn to ask Li Zicheng, which made Gao Yingxiang unable to adapt for a while, and he felt very uncomfortable.

However, the flying dragon chariot outside made Gao Yingxiang have to be patient, suppressing the awkwardness in his heart, and seeing what his nephew wanted to do?

The alliance leader Wang Ziyong looked calm, without the slightest sense of restraint, but behaved extremely relaxed and leisurely, and asked with a smile: "Brother Li, you called us two old guys here, what is the matter with the mystery?" As soon as I heard that you were going to sell the Wyvern Chariot, the leaders outside came early in the morning. You're going to hang them out, not afraid that the various chiefs will get impatient and cause trouble and mess up your banquet? ”

"Hey, hey... With the alliance leader you here, and my uncle sitting here, I think even if those leaders outside are impatient, they won't make too much trouble, and they should always give some face. Li Zicheng smiled faintly, said extremely confidently, and the whole person seemed neither humble nor arrogant, and Wang Ziyong's eyes lit up.

Gao Yingxiang's eyes flickered twice, and then returned to normal, he was very surprised, he didn't expect Li Zicheng to be so respectful to himself, and he would call himself an uncle, which was completely unexpected by him.

At this time, Wang Ziyong's expression was closed, still maintaining a little warmth, and suddenly said: "Brother Li, if you have something to say, just say it." I can't wait, and I desperately want to buy a few Wyvern chariots to equip in the army. ”

"Hehe, why is the Lord of the Wang Alliance in such a hurry? The reason why you and your uncle were invited here to be alone in the big tent is that there is one thing to ask for, as long as the matter is successful, how can the alliance leader and his uncle have less of the flying dragon chariot? I can guarantee that as long as the alliance leader and my uncle agree, they can each give five Wyvern chariots for free as a reward. ”

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderclap on the ground, Gao Yingxiang and Wang Ziyong were stunned, with a look of disbelief on their faces, although they didn't know the specific price of the Flying Dragon Chariot, but both of them had a number in their hearts, five Flying Dragon Chariots, without two or three thousand taels of silver, they couldn't take it down at all! The exit is five Wyvern chariots, which is really generous.

What's more, the flying dragon chariot at this time is still a strange existence.

It is worthy of the two masters of the 36th battalion, the existence of an old fox, who was only taken aback for a moment, and then returned to normal, and knew in his heart that Li Zicheng had made such a big price, and things were not so simple.

Therefore, whether it was Gao Yingxiang, his own uncle, or Wang Ziyong, the leader of the 36th Battalion Alliance, although their hearts were ready to move, their hearts were itching, and they wanted to agree immediately, but none of them let go easily.

The two glanced at each other, and asked more representatively, "Brother Li, what is the matter?" For you to pay such a large price, you took out ten Wyvern chariots at once, as a reward for the transaction? If I don't make it clear, I don't dare to ask for these five Wyvern chariots, if they are too hot, I might as well spend some more money to buy them. Moreover, with ten Wyvern chariots missing all of a sudden, aren't you afraid of the various leaders outside making trouble? After all, twenty Wyvern chariots were already a bit nervous, barely enough to supply us rebels. ”

Li Zicheng smiled brightly, and his answer was even more relaxed.

"Lord Wang has misunderstood, the flying dragon chariot I gave you and my uncle was not extracted from the outside. As for what it is, it's very simple, I hope the two of you will help suppress the field, and if anyone dares to make trouble today, I hope to be able to help. After all, selling twenty Wyvern chariots at once is not a small amount of silver. ”

The two were stunned again, and they were so surprised that they felt that Li Zicheng was joking with themselves, things were too simple, there were some fakes in the simple, like falling into a dream!

However, looking at the solemn look on Li Zicheng's face again, he said very sincerely, no longer beating drums in his heart, he had already believed most of it, and turned to joy in his heart.

Gao Yingxiang could no longer maintain his composure, there was some hesitation, some surprise, and even his voice trembled: "Hongji, what you said is true?" Let me and Wang Meng host the thing, it's as simple as that, just to press the scene? ”

"Yes, it's that simple!" Li Zicheng nodded lightly and replied very firmly.

At this time, Wang Ziyong swallowed his saliva twice with difficulty, and after getting Li Zicheng's reaffirmative reply, he put his mind at ease and fully believed it, and the whole person smiled and smiled.

"Hey, hey... Since Brother Li is so bold, my king can't twist and pinch for his own use! Brother Li, don't worry, if anyone dares to make trouble, no matter who he is, even if he tears his face, I will fully support you! ”

"Hongji, Uncle also fully supports you. If anyone dares to make trouble, if you need to use soldiers, you can drive the two thousand people brought by your uncle at will. ”

After Gao Yingxiang gave an affirmative reply and gave the corresponding promise, he did not stay in the big tent anymore, but slowly walked out of the battle very pretendedly, leaving Li Zicheng with the back of his head.

However, Wang Ziyong stayed, the look of surprise and joy had disappeared, and he regained his warm smile again, and waited until Gao Yingxiang walked away, then he spoke again, and said with deep meaning: "Brother Li, you gave Leader Gao such a free pie, and it was five flying dragon chariots, and the leader of this alliance can still understand." After all, your relationship is there. ”

"However, the two of us are not related to each other, and we have dropped such a piece of pie for no reason, although I am happy to accept it, but I still want to understand the reason, the leader of this alliance does not believe that Brother Li only has such a simple request. If things are not very difficult to do, Wang is willing to help one or two, and it is not impossible."

Li Zicheng smiled more and more brightly, and his impression of Wang Ziyong in his heart was even better, and his favorability increased a little more, and then he didn't hide it anymore, and began to open the skylight and say bright words.

"Hey, hey... Since the leader of the Wang League said this, he really did not hide it, but he had something to ask for, and he hoped that the leader of the alliance would agree. ”

"Hmm... Brother Li talk about it and see if Wang can help? Wang Ziyong said at the right time, with a solemn expression, waiting for Li Zicheng's next words.

"Lord Wang, it's like this, almost all the rebel troops of the thirty-six battalions have gathered in the entire Pingyang Mansion. In particular, the area of Puxian is the main concentration place. As the saying goes, there are more monks and less porridge, and Shanxi is so big, less than half of Shaanxi. Don't talk about a Pingyang Mansion, even if you add the surrounding Fenzhou, Qinzhou, Lu'an, and Zezhou, with the growth of the rebel armies from all walks of life, it is not enough for the leaders to eat together. ”

Wang Ziyong was said to be confused, his brows furrowed slightly, and he asked puzzledly: "Brother Li, what do you mean ......?" ”

Li Zicheng smiled faintly, his expression was very relaxed, and his words did not stop.

"Hey, hey... Wang Mengzhu, the meaning of Zicheng is very simple, since the competition in Shanxi is so fierce, then, Zicheng wants to take Li Jiajun across the Yellow River and develop south. If you march south, you will inevitably encounter the official army in the imperial guard. ”

At this moment, Wang Ziyong had already heard it very clearly, and knew what Li Zicheng meant, so he immediately patted his chest, and then took care of it: "Brother Li, this is simple." According to the previous agreement, the leader of this alliance is also going to the southeast region of Shanxi to disturb Zezhou, Lu'an and other places. In that case, let's go to Zezhou together. When the time comes, we will divide the troops into two routes, you go south to Henan, cross the Yellow River, and I will go to Lu'an Mansion. ”

Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Wang Ziyong to agree so refreshingly, worried that Wang Ziyong would regret it, and immediately praised loudly: "Okay, this is the best!" ”

Wang Ziyong also laughed, took a step forward, and said loudly: "Okay, Brother Li, let's stop talking, the people outside should be in a hurry, let's go out?" ”

"Yes, yes, the Lord of the Royal Alliance, please first!" Li Zicheng took a few steps forward, pulled the curtain of the big tent, and made a gesture of please, giving Wang Ziyong enough face.
