In the account of the rebel army, Lu Bang and other soldiers were adding a statement to the map of the Tayang Kingdom that had been paved there.

The national situation is turbulent, the palace of the Lu family has been captured, and the forces of all parties have really divided the land and become the trend of warlords, dozens of large and small battles in half a day, no one can play a loud banner, either "amnesty to the world", or "new mandate of heaven", and finally even the flag is not needed, just to fight for territory, gold, silver, grain and grass. As long as a force of "righteousness" sweeps in, it can quickly smooth out the edges and corners of the warlords like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and then put an orthodox explanation in the hearts of the people of the world, and the new regime will be able to take root and be firmly established.

Such a good opportunity, how can Lu Bang not seize it, what if he violates the ancestral system and abolishes slavery, when he becomes the ancestor of the new dynasty, the rules he set are the new ancestral teachings of the descendants of the Lu family.

"Wu Licheng and Beide Town are still in the hands of our army, and in this chaos, our army still has the strength to compete." Lu Bang put down the copper ruler in his hand, pointed at the location of the Lu Clan's palace with his finger, and said: "This group of rebels is surrounding the imperial city and claiming to be the king. ”

Lu Bang pressed his hands on the map of Qiping City, he smiled: "The rebels only care about fighting for money and food, and disdain to seize this projectile land, but they don't know that this is the place where the future of the Tayang Kingdom will go. To the south is the North River Wilderness, which is also sparsely populated with little grain, but can produce war horses, cattle and sheep; To the east is the Qilu hills, less wheat and rice but more melons, fruits and vegetables, more strong men, to the west is the Broken Soul Mountain Cliff, this cliff is a miraculous workmanship, it is a very dangerous place made in heaven. ”

The old man on the side, that is, the person who was replaced by Lu Bang as Li Lao, opened his mouth and said: "There is a broken soul mountain cliff, there is an extra dangerous high wall in the west of Qiping City, and Qiping City is located in the east of the central part of Tayang Kingdom, when there is no chaos, the merchants on the road have to pass through Qiping City at least a hundred miles, so Qiping City has become a lonely family, with little grain on three sides, and no one wants to go here as an official, but once the national war, this place produces sharp weapons gold and silver in the north, war horses, cattle and sheep in the south, livestock and vegetables in the east, and many heroes, it is undoubtedly an invisible army, By occupying this place, we will be at least undefeated in the midst of the chaos. ”

"Yes," Lu Bang continued, "after taking the city of Qiping, we must quickly go south. ”

"To the south?" Li Lao said suspiciously: "My lord, the palace is located in the west of Qiping City, and the land rich in grain and grass is mostly on the west side of Tayang Kingdom. ”

"Li Lao, look at the map, almost all the rebels are surrounded outside the imperial city, if there is only one or two rebel armies in the world, then whoever captures the old imperial city first may become the biggest opportunity to get the new world, but if it is three or three rebel armies? The imperial city no longer seems so meaningful, what about the capture of the imperial city, one family becomes bigger, how can the rest of the families not join forces, for a long time, it has become a multi-footed trend, that is, the current situation, fortunately, this group of miscellaneous rebels are still worried about who can take the imperial city, but they did not think of rushing to the south and the north, and the multi-footed establishment is more like Allah in the hearts of the people. ”

"I see, the lord wants to capture the south with lightning speed, and then leave one or two tiger and wolf divisions to guard in Qiping City, harassing the rebels at all times, so that they can only fight every day, and have no heart to look far, and wait until most of the countries start, how can these rebels who are already not mentally strong, not be defeated into a plate of scattered sand, and at that time, it is better to break them one by one, or to end a pot, the overall situation has been decided."

Li Lao thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid of the Tan clan again..."

Lu Bangyin laughed and said: "'Xia' actually invited the 'son of Zhurong', things are much better than imagined, so that the Hangtan clan will not die, and it will be difficult to revive." After I return to the country, I will dig three feet into the ground and clean up all the remnants of the Hanging Tan clan, including those distant people, and leave no one behind! ”

Li Lao leaned closer and said in a low voice: "Lord, 'Xia' and 'Zhurong's son'...."

Lu Bang laughed evilly again, and said: "Don't think about it, maybe the 'son of Zhurong' has already thought of a hundred and ten ways to put 'Xia' to death, haven't you noticed that the 'son of Zhurong' obviously didn't come voluntarily, I don't know what method 'Xia' used, but it is certain that once the Hangtan clan is destroyed, these two forces will never end well, and when the time comes, we will act when we see the opportunity, help the weak and control the strong or the fisherman will benefit, and it will not hurt us." ”

"The lord is far-sighted, and the old man admires. Time is running out, and it is better for our army to move south as soon as possible. ”

"Good!" Lu Bang pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, walked out of the tent in eight steps, and ordered the whole army to reorganize and immediately set out to recover the country.

Suddenly the dust was flying, the sound of horses' hooves began, and after half an hour, the number of tents on the grassland was mostly reduced, and many broken pots and pans were thrown on the ground.

In the past few days, the sky has been very strange, and after yawning, Mu Ziyun walked out of the tent, and above the clouds, a slight drizzle fell, dripping on his shoulders, pressing Mu Ziyun's heart inexplicably dull. He happened to see the heavily armed and fierce army, and Lu Bang was riding a horse, waving a sword, and shouting impassioned slogans to his soldiers again.

The rain was heavy, and a few white thunderbolts flashed from time to time, and the wind hurriedly blew out the remaining sparks on the ground, Mu Ziyun rubbed his eyes, walked five or six steps towards the army, and suddenly stopped again.

Lu Bang turned around and asked vigorously, "Elder Li, why don't you see the remaining army behind the Heavenly Organ." ”

"If you go back to the lord, they will go to Qiping City early."

"Oh? Who gave the order? Lu Bang said strangely.

"It's old."

Lu Bang frowned, just as the rain fell into his eyes, he laughed and said, "After so many years, Li Lao still understands me." We've endured it for so many years, it's time, Elder Li! Restore the country with me! ”

Lu Bang raised his sword with high interest, and for a few breaths, he did not usher in the echo of Li Lao, nor did he hear the shouts of the soldiers, he lowered his head and saw that the faces of the soldiers were depicted with a strange look, the strangeness was very special, just like the faces of the countless officials when he was assigned and demoted many years ago.

Lu Bang couldn't help but shudder, maybe it was because today's rain was too frequent and too cool, he smiled embarrassedly, looked back at Li Lao, and said, "Let's go!" The military situation is important, hurry up and get on the road. He rode his horse a dozen paces, and there was nothing in his ears except the sound of rain, and he turned around and called out to Li Lao strangely, and the wind and rain were coming, staining his eyes.

Lu Bang rubbed his eyes with both hands, shouted a few more words in his mouth, and after barely opening his eyes, he saw the vague figure of Li Lao, Li Lao always faced the army, and the soldiers always faced Li Lao.

Suddenly, a thunderbolt fell from the dark clouds....

"Lai.... Li Lao? Lu Bang's horse walked back slowly, as if the way back was endless across the mountains and rivers, and before Lu Bang could reach out, he leaned forward, stretched his neck, and blocked his face in front of Li Lao's gaze.

Li Lao had to look at Lu Bang, another thunder, pouring rain followed immediately, Li Lao's eyes were so indifferent at some point, and in an instant, the heat in Lu Bang's heart was extinguished by the wind and rain...

"Li Lao? Black.... Old! Lu Bang's neck kept turning, and his haggard, stunned, and seemingly choked voice was muffled by the sound of the rain, "Old Li, you're me... The most trusted person. He pointed to the ground, unable to contain his shock, "You? Want this world too? ”

Li Lao opened his mouth and seemed to sigh, and said: "Lord, this army will pass through Qiping City, go south, go north, restore the country, and complete everything that the lord has planned." ”

"And then—" Lupin's helmet was blown away by the strong wind, and his hair was ruffled by the rain.

Several horses' hooves sounded, a group of people on horses, treading water, they stopped in front of the army, Lupin turned his head, he saw a group of majestic generals, all of them majestic, looking at him coldly....

Lu Bang looked at Li Lao again, and Li Lao said calmly: "Wang Bin nobles, a royal family that was expelled thousands of years ago, is they.... They came back, and the soldiers who obeyed the deployment of the lord had already killed the old decay outside the heavenly organ to Qiping City, and the soldiers who stayed here only recognized the old decay. ”

Lu Bang pointed at Li Lao, his fingers trembled, and suddenly he suddenly realized, and scolded: "Dog thief! You're not Li Lao, I know, you're a widow! You slut, how dare you...."Suddenly stunned again..

Li Lao looked at Lu Bang and said coldly: "There is a special way to identify the lord and the old man, the person here is a real person, I believe that the lord can distinguish it, but the one who led the army outside the heavenly organ is indeed a widow, she has become an old man, and then she has changed her breath with He's bi, except for the lord, no one will find out that she is fake." ”

"Why...."Lu Bang suddenly shouted, "Why! He glared at Li Lao, glared at Wang Bin nobleman, he was resentful and unwilling: "We forbear together, plan together, how many years!" We've ignored life and death before! ”

Li Lao sighed and said: "Lord, there are more valuable things in this world than life and death, more than years of accumulated grudges, more than years of hard work, and more valuable than years of revenge. ”

"You say... What. Lu Bang poked his head, his face did not know whether it was tears or rain, he was in a trance, and then laughed wildly, and hideous.

Wang Bin's aristocratic soldiers stabbed Lu Bang off his horse, Lu Bang rolled in the puddle in embarrassment, his eyes were always on Li Lao, he couldn't believe it, he couldn't believe that there was a reward in this world that could make Li Lao give up decades of hard work and resentment, what was it? What the hell is going on.

The thunder struck the mountain, the rocks on the mountain cracked, rolled down and smashed many tents, and the rain became heavier and heavier...

Lu Bang suddenly turned his head, he looked not far away, in front of the shining tent, the person... The rain was heavy, but the man's face was still clear.

Mu Ziyun opened his gaze sideways, he turned around in the rain and walked two steps, then turned back, and carefully looked at the army in the distance, the people in the distance... He sighed, and halfway through his sigh he felt chills all over his body, and an inexplicable sense of guilt bit his throat...

Lu Bang laughed madly, cried madly, and when he was pierced by a few spears, he seemed to shout: "You all end up the same, we will not die well!" It's all fate! It's all like that, hahahaha! ”
