Seeing that this was the case in the Central Plains, the cave owners in Guangyuan Prefecture wanted to complain that the imperial court ignored them.

For hundreds of years, this place has been standing on the wall, from a distance to see the leaves on the tree turn over, a little wind to come to the shadow, you have to turn in the direction of the leaf turn a back, in the middle of the Central Plains and Jiaozhi, it is like a tumbler, see which place is not good, to bounce up again, to the other side.

Zhang Dingya naturally didn't know that Guangyuan Prefecture had such a past, and when he heard Gu Yanzhang say, he also felt that his eyes had been opened, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the sound of cicadas that were chirping one after another in the distance.

It was already late at night, and the camp was silent, except for a few coughs that could be heard sporadically, and the start and stop of the cicadas were very clear.

Gu Yanzhang and Zhang Dingya glanced at each other in unison, and a trace of vigilance floated in each other's eyes.

Could it be a night attack?

Zhang Dingya called to the guards not far away: "Arrange a few people to go over there and have a look." ”

One side pointed in the direction of the southwest.

Liang Jiong is good at military affairs, here is only a little more than three hours away from the mountain, the officers and soldiers are camped here, and they have long been prepared for the rebels to attack at night, he felt that something was wrong at this time, but he did not panic, but was a little excited.

The scout who went to investigate quickly came back and said: "It should be a spy of the rebels, he is a familiar hand, he is very familiar with the terrain, he has not chased it, he has already run away." ”

Zhang Dingya couldn't help but turn his head to look at Gu Yanzhang and complained: "Liang Jiong, this person, has obviously reversed, but his courage is even smaller than before!" The officers and soldiers have just arrived here, and the people are tired and tired, so if they don't sneak attack at this time, they will wait for when! He wasn't that kind of person back then! ”

Gu Yanzhang shook his head and said, "He won't attack at night." ”

Zhang Dingya said strangely: "Why do you say that? ”

Gu Yanzhang said: "Since you are an old acquaintance with him, he is naturally an old acquaintance with you, where will it not be clear what you are doing." ”

Chen Hao led the army south to Guizhou, and sent people to Guangyuan Prefecture, this news can't be concealed if you want to, Liang Jiong only needs to send someone to inquire a little, you can know who the commander and general of the southern expedition are, and at this time, it is just a confirmation to arrange spies to monitor again.

Although Zhang Dingya has a straightforward personality and is not very old, he can bring up troops, but he is already familiar with it, he is used to doing unexpected methods, but no matter whether he advances or retreats, he is cautious.

Since Liang Jiong and Zhang Dingya have known each other since dawn, they naturally know his ability, and they have known that the other party will be prepared for a sneak attack tonight, not to mention the victory or defeat, not to mention five or five, at most six or four, so why bother.

Zhang Dingya couldn't help but sigh: "In the past, I drank wine with Liang Jiong, who would have thought that there would be today." ”

Gu Yanzhang also said: "The world is unpredictable, one misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred, when we can meet each other, just ask him again." ”

As he spoke, he also felt a little emotional, and couldn't help but raise his head and glance at the sky.

The black clouds in the sky were so thick that even a few stars could not be seen.

***

Liang Jiong really did not send troops to raid at night.

Early the next morning, Zhang Dingya arranged for the scouts to go out to explore the way.

The people sent out by the officers and soldiers were still a few miles away from Temo Cave, and they had already been discovered by the guards arranged by Liang Jiong outside, but fortunately they were all locals of Yongzhou, who were very familiar with the jungle and ran fast.

Just as Zhang Dingya's scouts couldn't catch Liang Jiong's spies the night before, Liang Jiong's guards today couldn't catch Zhang Dingya's people.

The guards turned around and found nothing, so they had to run back to reply.

Liang Jiong and the three "princes" he was crowned. A "prime minister" sat in the hall.

The house where they are now stationed is the private property of the previous cave master.

After killing the cave master, dispersing the other party's subordinates, and occupying his house and property, Liang Jiong and others chose this most spacious house as the "White Tiger Hall" to discuss the matter.

He is only forty-one years old, in the prime of life, with a good appearance, especially two extremely black thick eyebrows, which make people look very impressive. When he was a child, Liang's father found an old road in Jizhou City to give him his life, and the other party saw these two thick eyebrows and said that if he became a big official in the future, many people in the world would definitely die.

Later, Liang Jiong really joined the army, although he did not become a big official, but he was able to be regarded as steady step by step.

Until now, sitting in this White Tiger Hall, for some reason, he suddenly remembered the old words when he was a child.

He has indeed become a "great official" in his life, because if he is such a great official, many people will definitely die in the world.

Now that he has rebelled and is still called the emperor in a daze, he should already be regarded as the biggest official in the world, but for some reason, there has always been a feeling in his heart that he has not fallen on the ground.

In fact, from the beginning to the present, Liang Jiong has never planned to rebel.

He is the highest military rank among the people who were laid off in the Guangxin Army, even if he is extremely humiliated, but after all, he has been a military general for many years and has saved a lot of silver, although he may not be rich and expensive, he can support the whole family, and there is no problem at all.

Liang Jiong went to the yamen to ask for silver, and was invited by his subordinates.

He has the highest prestige and the highest official position, and everyone is willing to listen to him, and they always habitually go to him when there is anything.

How could Liang Jiong refuse.

Many people were brought out by him, and everyone was in the same boat, living and dying together on the battlefield, and it was a lifelong friendship.

As long as they go to the battlefield, there will be dead and wounded, and many of the Guangxin soldiers who were laid off were wounded in front of the Yanzhou battle. It is already a blessing to be injured on the battlefield and hurt your fingers, and there are many lame arms and legs.

Now the military exploits have been swallowed, whether it is the reward of silver, or the silk, most of them have been reduced - all of these have been endured, but they actually withhold the pension silver, but they don't know that they are waiting for the rice to fall into the pot now?!

Jizhou has just suffered from locust plague and drought, the price of grain and rice is already expensive, and it will be difficult to have a harvest when planting fields and vegetables, Liang Jiong really can't bear to watch his former subordinates hungry.

He took people to the state government to ask for money, who knew that the state and the general judgment were all avoided, seeing that it was dragging on for more and more time, the soldiers who should have been waiting for the results outside had already been stirred up by the fire, and that day they happened to be muttered a few words by a small official, saying that "they are not dead yet, and they can't even walk here." When the crowd heard this, they rushed forward and beat the little official.

This place is outside the yamen, and the beating is so hard that it attracts the officials to come and arrest them, and when the little officials see that they have helpers, they clamore to send them all to the prison, and they will all enter and leave in the future.

They are all locals, who doesn't know the badness of the officials, and they know that this one really does such things, once he is in prison, how easy it is to do something in it, he really has a life to go in, and no life to go out.

That being the case, both horizontal and vertical are death, starvation is death, unjust death is death, rebellion is death, and simply rebellion can be achieved, so there is still a glimmer of life.

If there are too many people, there will be chaos, and I don't know who started it at that time, so I rushed directly into the state office, killed the little official, and wanted to capture the state official.

When Liang Jiong heard it wrong and ran out, everything was already in the boat, and there was no possibility of maneuvering.
