Hear this.

Wei Rong glanced at Chu Wei with an embarrassed face.

He and Chu Wei have been old friends for many years, so naturally they don't want their old friends to lose their son-in-law.

But now, Li Xingchen is recruiting troops in Pingcheng, and he already has the intention of rebellion.

Even if he wanted to plead for Li Xingchen, he couldn't hide the eyes of Emperor Wei and the ministers in the palace.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thought that he should first send the minister to Pingcheng to find out the case of rebellion before he could convict Li Xingchen and arrest him back to Beijing for trial."

Wei Rong pondered for a moment, and finally came up with this choice.

"Your Majesty, the case of Pingcheng's rebellion is very important, and there must be no delay, in case the sinner Li Xingchen colludes with the Jin State, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Chen Yinglong came out in response and bowed his hand: "The old minister thinks that he should immediately let Wuzhou Mu Lu Ben lead the men and horses to Pingcheng and arrest the sinner Li Xingchen!" ”

As the Chinese book order of the Great Wei Dynasty, Chen Yinglong has always been scheming.

But this time, he completely miscalculated Li Xingchen.

Originally, in his plan, Li Xingchen would hide around like a lost dog and dare not show his face.

Unexpectedly, this kid did the opposite, and in just over a month, he actually caused such a big incident in Pingcheng.

This is completely beyond Chen Yinglong's estimate.

Therefore, he must nip Li Xingchen in the bud in advance to prevent future troubles.

"Hmm...... Chen Aiqing is really thoughtful! ”

Li Zhen nodded with satisfaction, and immediately issued an order: "Zhongshu Province drafted an edict and ordered Wuzhou Mu Lu Ben to go to Pingcheng to capture the sinner Li Xingchen as soon as possible, there must be no mistake!" ”

……

On the other side, Li Xingchen didn't know that his traces had been exposed.

Since swallowing the industries of the Wei family and the Tang family, the Li Mansion has become the largest foreign wealthy family in Pingcheng.

But despite this, those prominent families in Pingcheng did not dare to covet it in the slightest.

After all, the impact of Li Xingchen killing Wei Qiang in public before was too deterrent.

not only made those noble clans honest, but also made some ruffians and hooligans dare not commit crimes against the wind.

At the same time, more than 2,000 new soldiers of the Shuofang battalion were trained by Xiong Tonghai, and their combat strength was also increasing every day.

In just over 20 days, the Shuofang battalion already had a well-disciplined and solemn military appearance.

Coupled with the various new equipment created by Li Xingchen, the combat power of the Shuofang battalion has been upgraded to a new level.

These days, Yang Furen has also been to Shuofang Camp a few times, but each time he has left with shock.

Because of Shuofang Battalion's training methods, as well as those powerful new equipment, Yang Furen's cognition was completely subverted.

Besides.

Li Xingchen's cloth industry territory, under the expansion of Wang Yuanshuang, slowly expanded to other states, counties and counties.

With the rise of the fame of Wang's cloth shop, there is an endless stream of cloth orders, and the workshops in Cangyun Village are busy day and night.

……

Pingcheng, Yangfu.

In a courtyard, Yang Furen was having tea with Li Xingchen.

"Yang Gong, so many days have passed, but is there Tang Peng's whereabouts?"

"According to Wuzhou's eyeliner, Tang Peng has fled to Wuzhou, and now he is the treasurer of Wuzhou!"

"Hehe, such a subordinate person, Wuzhou Mu will actually reuse it?"

Li Xingchen took a sip of tea, shook his head and sneered.

Yang Furen said: "Li Dutong doesn't know that Wuzhou Mulu was originally Chen Yinglong's protégé, and the reason why he reused Tang Peng was to control Pingcheng in the future. ”

"In this way, wouldn't our Pingcheng face the threat of Wuzhou at any time?"

Li Xingchen frowned.

After two months of integration, he has already made Pingcheng his home base.

"At the moment, what the old man is most worried about is not the threat of Wuzhou, but the Jin Tartars outside Qingyun Pass."

Yang Furen stroked his beard and said with a solemn face: "Recently, the Jin Tartars have transferred another 100,000 troops to be stationed outside Qingyun Pass, and there is a momentum of large-scale attack at any time, once Qingyun Pass is lost...... We're afraid that we're going to be ruined! ”

Li Xingchen said: "Yang Gong doesn't have to worry, as long as the new pawns of the Shuofang battalion become powerful, even if they face the Jin State Tartars, they can keep the city from losing!" ”

"But Shuo Fang is full of calculations, and it is only 3,000 new pawns."

Yang Furen said with a wry smile: "Three thousand against one hundred thousand...... The disparity in strength is too great! ”

"Yang Gong's words are wrong."

Li Xingchen looked at the sky and said leisurely: "Husbands and soldiers, there are visible soldiers and invisible soldiers. ”

"The visible soldier, the halberd, the man of the flesh."

"Invisible soldiers, the sun, moon and stars, wind and clouds, water and fire, the aura of mountains and rivers, so that everything can be soldiers."

Well, his talk about the army was borrowed from Zhuge Liang's famous words in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in his previous life.

But when he heard it in Yang Furen's ears, his eyes widened suddenly.

"Shhh...... Can everything be a soldier? Li Dutong is so high-minded, he can be called a generation of soldiers! ”

Yang Furen looked at Li Xingchen in disbelief.

The shock in my heart has reached the point of no return.

"Yang Gong, you only need to store a large amount of grain, and leave the matter of city defense to me!"

Looking at Yang Furen, who was shocked, Li Xingchen knew that he was suppressed.

"Lord County, it's a big deal......

Just then, there was an exclamation from the hallway.

Li Xingchen turned his head to look when he heard the sound.

I saw Fan Sheng and Qi Guanzhong walking towards the courtyard with a panicked face.

"What happened? Why are you so panicked? ”

Yang Gong looked at the two of them and said with a displeased face.

This old man is a county official, but like a hairy child, he panics when he encounters something.

"Lord County, the Gaoshan thieves have come down the mountain, they have plundered ten villages in Taiping Township all the way, and now they are coming straight to Pingcheng!"

Fan Sheng looked anxious, beat his chest and paused.

Yang Furen scolded angrily: "Look at your unpromising appearance, it's just two thousand Gao Mountain thieves, what are you panicking about?" ”

You Yang Furen really sit and talk, don't have back pain.

It was the ancestral business of the Fan family that was looted, of course you don't panic.

If your Yang family's ancestral business was robbed by the Gao Mountain bandits, could you Yang Furen still be so calm?

But belly slander is belly slander.

Fan Sheng didn't dare to show the slightest unhappiness.

"Lord County, my subordinates have lost thousands of dollars, if the Gaoshan thieves break through Pingcheng, the consequences will be unimaginable, and my subordinates will ...... Can subordinates not panic? ”

"With Li Dutong here, Pingcheng can't be broken, and just two thousand thieves can't be more than chickens and dogs, and they can easily be gathered and annihilated!"

Yang Furen looked at Li Xingchen, and his old face suddenly became pleasant.

It's as if Li Xingchen is the Dinghai Divine Needle of Pingcheng.

"What the county lord said is very true, Li Dutong is both civil and military, and the Gaoshan thieves will definitely not be able to break through Pingcheng."

Qi Guanzhong immediately echoed: "In addition, the soldiers of the Shuofang Battalion are just showing their strength, and they can just use this wave of Gaoshan thieves to practice." ”

"Qi Dianshi is right, it's time for the new soldiers of the Shuofang battalion to practice."

Li Xingchen stood up, hugged his fists and said, "Yang Gong, I'm going to transfer troops to encircle and suppress the Gao Mountain bandits!" ”
