Chuxiang camp.

"Is there any news from Chuanshu?" Ge Cifeng looked at the map and asked with a frown.

"His Royal Highness Hui Shizi, no." Dozens of generals stood in the camp, and one of the leading generals replied.

Ge Cifeng punched the table case hard: "When you roar, you are louder than anyone else, and when you fight, you hide farther than anyone else!" Go, tell the man surnamed Peng, if he doesn't send troops, the Tang Sect won't be able to protect him! At the end of the procession, a young general turned around and walked out of the tent, thinking that he had arranged for the messenger to be delivered.

"His Royal Highness, Xigui's side... Would you like to check it out? Another general asked.

"What wind and waves can an old thing that is about to be turned up? Well, go and inquire, and talk to my father, and let him beware of that old thing, and hide in that corner all day and night, and I don't know what to do. Ge Cifeng changed the submissiveness in front of Zhao Yizhi when he was in the capital, and he acted and spoke quite imposingly.

Ge Cifeng looked at the generals in front of him and asked in a cold voice, "Who is sure to capture Zhou Ziru?" ”

All the generals bowed their heads and were silent, and at this time, speaking was not an invitation, but a pure fool. Can Zhou Ziru be so easy to capture? A few days ago, I went to rob the grain, not to mention that the money and food were not robbed, and the back road was almost blocked. If it weren't for Ge Cifeng and the ambush soldiers, they would all have to be explained to the edge of Anhui City.

"His Royal Highness, Tong Meng and Ma Liu used a strategy to divide the troops to kill Nanhuai Li Yaoyang..."

Ge Cifeng looked at the general: "Why don't I know the plan to divide the troops, but the imperial court has 300,000 soldiers and horses, and our army has 200,000, and we still divide the troops?" ”

The general kept his mouth shut and bowed his head silently.

"Report! The prince has brought the grain and grass! "A small school came in to report.

"How much grain and grass have been transported?" Ge Cifeng couldn't help but stand up and asked.

A person strode in from outside the door and pushed the kneeling colonel aside, and it was Jiang Rong, the leader of the beggar gang. Lang Sheng laughed and said: "Your Royal Highness, the prince is really kind to you!" This time, three months of grain and grass were transported! ”

"It's only been three months? The grain and grass of 300,000 soldiers and horses in the imperial court can last for half a year! Ge Cifeng gritted his teeth and said, after taking charge of the army, he knew that it was not easy, the grain and grass were pinched in the hands of his father, and Ge Cifeng had a large army.

Jiang Rong walked to the tent, looked around, waved his hand to the generals and said, "Go out, go out." ”

The generals looked at Ge Cifeng hesitantly, Jiang Rong's martial arts were extremely high, if only the two of them were left in the tent, they were only worried about what would happen.

Ge Cifeng also waved his hand and said, "Go out." "Jiang Rong's martial arts are high, and he also has some friendship with his father, but now that he is in command of the army, the Ge family and the beggar gang are grasshoppers on a rope, and he has no reason to harm himself. King Chu Xiang is just his heir, Ge Yigang died in the capital, and he will not let his incense be ruined. The most important thing is that Jiang Rong has already entered the account, and if he really wants to make trouble, these generals are not his opponents.

The generals rushed out, Ge Cifeng invited Jiang Rong to sit down, and said, "I don't know what the Jiang gang leader has to say?" ”

Jiang Rong picked up the tea on the table, no matter who had drunk it just now, he grabbed it and drank it, and wiped his mouth: "The prince still relies on the prince very much, and now that the army of 200,000 is in the hands of the prince, which vassal king dares to do this?" ”

"If Li Yaoyang was willing, he could control the entire Nanhuai soldiers and horses in his hands!" Ge Cifeng replied coldly.

"That's different, does His Royal Highness have half of Li Yaoyang's martial arts?" Jiang Rong said unceremoniously, Ge Cifeng has no voice, if you talk about martial arts, how much Ge Cifeng is not an opponent of Li Yaoyang.

Jiang Rong pulled the stool closer to the handsome seat: "His Royal Highness, what is the prince's picture?" Not the Emperor's throne yet? If you drag it out like this, when will you reach the capital? Although the three kings of the north have never asked about the Central Plains, if the emperor promises something, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents! ”

"What do you mean?" As smart as Ge Cifeng, he didn't understand what Jiang Rong wanted to say for a while.

Jiang Rong slapped his big hand and said: "I'll just say it bluntly, the reason why the prince allocated three months of grain and grass is because the prince wants His Royal Highness the prince to fight urgently, and he can't wait to attack the capital within three days." As soon as the throne is in hand, the hatred of taking away his wife, why worry about it? Shizi, you didn't like that daughter-in-law in the first place, did you? ”

Ge Cifeng's face was very ugly for a while, and he told outsiders about such obscure things! Ge Ci gritted his teeth angrily, and endured it for a long time before he exhaled faintly: "Gang Leader Jiang is here to persuade me to fight with Zhou Ziru?" ”

"How can that? War is not child's play! Jiang Rong pretended to be frightened and said: "I am a martial artist, I can only fight, nothing else, if the layman refers to the insider, in case I lose, I can't afford this, I am here to give the prince a wake-up!" ”

"Don't sell it, just say something!" Ge Cifeng couldn't wait any longer, he faintly felt that Jiang Rong's words were a little wrong.

"Your Royal Highness, do you want a quick battle or a long battle?" Jiang Rong asked directly.

"How can I be left to the impermanence of the army?" Ge Cifeng blocked back with a word.

Jiang Rong nodded: "You are really a family, the old fox gave birth to a little fox, and he didn't run away." If His Royal Highness the Prince wants to fight quickly, I will help the disciples and bring all of them to help His Royal Highness the Prince attack the city! If His Royal Highness the Prince wants to fight for a long time, because of the lack of food and grass, I also know a few rich friends. ”

Ge Cifeng suddenly realized: Co-author Jiang Rong is here to surrender! Turned his back on the king of Chu Xiang and voted for himself! After thinking about it for a while, Ge Cifeng understood that his father was very old, and it was not a few years left, Jiang Rong was already inseparable from the Ge family, and it was perfect to vote for his young son at this time. At this time of confrontation between the two armies, it can be called a relief in the snow!

Ge Cifeng figured it out in his heart, and he didn't break it, he also leaned towards Jiang Rong's side, and chuckled: "Since Jiang Gang Leader has a heart and a rich friend, I also want to get to know him." ”

Jiang Rong saw Ge Cifeng's chuckle, and knew in his heart that the other party already knew his intentions, and he was not ashamed, he was too tired to twist and turn, and he felt a lot more comfortable after saying it so bluntly. Immediately clapped their hands, the curtain was lifted, and the two walked in from outside the tent.

"I've seen His Royal Highness!" The two said in unison.

"Who are these two?" Ge Cifeng really didn't know any of them.

Jiang Rong got up and introduced: "This is the patriarch of the Nanhuai Wang clan and the Zhu family!" ”

"Villain Zhu Ce, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" Zhu Ce arched his hand and said. It turned out that since Li Rongqi, the king of Nanhuai, attacked Hangzhou, he had fled, left Hangzhou, and came to Chuxiang, and he has been in the beggar gang for most of the year. The Zhu family secretly transferred a lot of money and assets from Nanhuai to Chuxiang, and now the Zhu family in Nanhuai has become an empty shell.

Ge Cifeng got up to return the salute, the gloomy look on his face just now had been swept away, and his mouth grinned: "Then Li Rongqi relies on himself to be the king of Nanhuai, bullying the wang clan, Patriarch Zhu can come to Chu Xiang, this son is very welcome!" ”

"This is a wealthy businessman from Chu Xiang, and he is not an outsider except for Fang Dengfang. Fang Yuanwai took the initiative to find me, and said that he was willing to devote all his family resources to help His Royal Highness the Prince succeed! Jiang Rong introduced another person.

Ge Cifeng's eyebrows moved, and his mouth smiled even wider. It is not uncommon for wealthy merchants to be found everywhere. But every time there is a war, the rich businessmen are the first to run away, how can the accumulated family business be burned down because of the war? Why is this still in a hurry to post upside down? If a wealthy businessman is willing to give his family all his resources to help, it is no less than adding another 50,000 soldiers! Unlike the wang clan, the wealthy businessmen have the financial resources, and the energy source is constantly providing the financial resources, and there is no danger of sitting on the mountain and eating short.

"Outside the Fang staff, look up for a long time! If I'm not mistaken, there is a party in Wucheng with the surname outside, who is rich and crowned with Chu Xiang, so it must be outside the Fang member? Ge Cifeng has a good memory, and he is not afraid of recognizing the wrong person, and it is not Jiang Rong's turn to introduce him in person.

Fang Deng's face was even more gloomy than Ge Cifeng just now, and when he saw Ge Cifeng taking the initiative to salute, he barely squeezed out a smile and returned the salute.

Ge Cifeng saw that Fang Deng was unhappy, but he didn't have the heart to guess, as long as he gave money, it didn't matter if you were forced or voluntary, or if there was something insignificant about the past?

Jiang Rong looked at Ge Cifeng proudly, returned to his seat and sat down, Ge Cifeng stretched out his hand to the two and motioned to sit down.

"Gang Leader Jiang is so helpful, it really makes this son of the world not know what to say." Ge Cifeng was full of spring breeze, and the gloom of the failure to rob the grain was swept away.

"Hey! That's a mistake! My beggar gang and Chu Xiang are both prosperous and loss-making! If the great thing of the world is accomplished, don't treat our beggar gang as a beggar to eat, just kick it. Jiang Rong never left the beggars.

Ge Cifeng understood what Jiang Rong meant, and nodded again and again, as long as the big thing can be done, nothing else matters, the Ge family and the beggar gang have cooperated for so many years, and it is not something that can be divided overnight. As for the next twenty or thirty years, who knows?

Seeing Ge Cifeng like this, Jiang Rong's heart became more steady, and he turned around and walked out of the tent: "Okay, then I'll settle down my beggar disciples, His Royal Highness the Prince, you can talk." ”

Jiang Rong had just walked out of the tent, and Zhu Ce hurriedly knelt down on his knees and bowed to Ge Cifeng: "Your Royal Highness, I have to see His Highness today!" I have a dispute with the king of Nanhuai, but it has never reached the point of tearing my face, it is all a small fight, these beggars are robbing the tribute, so that the king of Nanhuai suspects me and raises troops to attack! Then he assassinated the king of Nanhuai, causing my Zhu family to have no place in Nanhuai..."

"So, when you come to Chu Xiang, you have wronged Patriarch Zhu?" Although Jiang Rong is gone, Fang Deng is still there, this person just said it, he didn't look at the occasion at all, how did he sit on the position of patriarch? Ge Cifeng frowned in his heart.

"It's... Ah no, no, no, if I were in the beggar gang, I would have wronged our Zhu family, and it can be seen that the son of the world is not wronged at all! The whole Zhu family is willing to look forward to His Royal Highness the Prince! Zhu Ce hurriedly nodded and shook his head, and almost cut out his heart to show Ge Cifeng.

Ge Cifeng waved his hand, the Nanhuai Wang clan was nothing more than that, it was just one more dog for him, and then looked at Fang Deng: "Fang Yuan seems to be displeased?" ”

Fang Deng arched his hand and said: "Your Royal Highness, the villain is sincere to vote, I hope you don't have any doubts." ”

Ge Cifeng raised his eyebrows, and this sounded very comfortable, as if he was talking to someone!

"If there is a difficulty, even if it is said, where this son can help, he will do his best!" Ge Cifeng said.

Fang Deng glanced at Zhu Ce inadvertently, and arched his hand: "Your Royal Highness, please rest assured, there is nothing difficult for the villain. ”

Ge Cifeng picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "That's good." "Eyes over the rim of the glass, looking at the two of them faintly...
