The army set out, went north from southern Xinjiang to Shudi, and then went down the river to the south of the Yangtze River.

When the spring breeze blows, it is already a spring light at this time, the flowers on both sides of the strait are red, and you can smell the fragrance of flowers on the boat.

Xiangyang City.

Kuai's Lodge.

The head of the Kuai family, Cai Chongwen, the head of the Cai family, Chi Hanli, and Huang Youxin, the head of the Huang family, were sitting together at this time, and the atmosphere was quite dignified.

"The Zhu family added three inexplicable so-called textbooks to the list of science and technology, and listed them in the Four Books and Five Classics, which is really deviant."

Cai Chongwen looked at the three family heads around him and spoke indifferently.

"So what?"

"Mu Ying and Xiao Han, but in March, they destroyed Xia, Liang, and Duan one after another, three powerful local warlords, and the soldiers were in full swing, and they did not reduce the battle of Poyang Lake that year."

"If we turn against it, I'm afraid we'll hit a stone with an egg."

Chi Hanli sighed lightly.

"But... Could it be that we can't let the Zhu family's group of mud-legged people bully? ”

"We are all families that have been inherited for hundreds of thousands of years, are we really afraid of the reckless Zhu family royal family of their ancestors?"

"This move of the Zhu family royal family is tantamount to digging the foundation of our family!"

"Can't fight, let's communicate with the world's families, overthrow them, Emperor Zhu, and change a group of royal families, in this world, who sits or not, why should they swallow their anger at the Zhu family?"

Huang Youxin didn't open his mouth angrily, and he was extremely unhappy.

"Alas!"

"But we really can't beat them, the four of us together, at most we will take out tens of thousands of families, not to mention overthrowing Emperor Zhu, even the 100,000 southern expeditionary army we can't stop."

"What's more, the Zhu family's royal family and Xiao Han, the little Mr. Huaixi, don't know who this kid learned the art of war from, it's so ghostly."

"Besides, do you really think that those families from all over the world will be willing to take risks with us?"

"At this time, the Ming army has just won a big victory, and they are all scared to death one by one, and they are all busy showing loyalty to the Zhu family's royal family there."

"If you want me to say, let's be honest, now the Ming political outline is still the best for us to master, the law of the Ming Dynasty is also half of our share with those rich businessmen, as for the Ming agricultural skills, as long as we can unite those rich businessmen, every time in the spring and autumn, raise the cost of the road, few farmers have the opportunity to rush to the examination room."

Chi Hanli sighed again.

If Mu Ying and Xiao Han's southern expeditionary army were in a stalemate, Chi Hanli would also feel that he would have the opportunity to use this momentum to communicate with the families from all over the world, but no one expected that Xiao Han's clever plan would be so simple that it would simply shock the jaw of the entire Ming family.

More than half of the families are strong, and almost all of them have been frightened by Xiao Han.

Now, in the powerful circle of the family, there are even rumors that even if a million army can be raised, as long as Xiao Han, the British prince of the Zhu family, and the prince with a foreign surname, will not be able to defeat the Ming army.

"Brother Kuai, you say something, what should we do? Could it be true that we let this group of pigs take such a group of old farmers to and pee on top of us? ”

Cai Chongwen set his eyes on the host Kuai Pingfeng, who had not spoken.

"Xiao Han is indeed a genius who is not born in the world, his three books have also been read by the old man, indeed, it is a masterpiece of the world, if it is placed in the Spring and Autumn Period when a hundred schools of thought are contending, I am afraid that there will be a chance to claim to be a faction and compete with Confucianism, Law, and Mo."

"But... What if he dies? ”

Kuai Pingfeng's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Brother Kuai, you're not kidding, are you?"

"Xiao Han is Mr. Huaixi, upright and prime, I'm afraid that he can always escort this Zhu Ming for decades, how could he die?"

Chi Hanli opened his mouth, his face full of disbelief.

"Brother Chi, you can just say this, everyone knows that Xiao Han has always been frail and sickly, if he suddenly dies of a vicious disease, I don't think it's strange."

Cai Chongwen smiled, obviously knowing a lot about Yingtian's news.

"It's more than that."

"The eyeliner of my Kuai family in southern Xinjiang has come to the news, in recent days, Xiao Han has hardly shown up, and has let his guard Tong Zhang Shun appear on his behalf several times."

"We have reason to suspect that this thousands of miles of travel has cost Xiao Han a lot of life, and he is almost unable to get out of bed at this time."

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Kuai's eyes.

"What do you mean, brother..."

Cai Chongwen was slightly stunned.

"Kill?"

"Let's make up for this Xiao Han with the final blow?"

Huang Youxin suddenly got up and stared at Kuai Pingfeng.

"Not bad."

"No matter how smart Xiao Han is, after all, he is just a mortal fetus in the flesh, don't look at the current Ming warships going down the river with great fanfare, there is a high probability that it is just a bluff."

"With his state, we don't even need to send a killer to kill him, as long as we create some chaos and let him continue to work hard to frighten, he Xiao Han is afraid that he may return to heaven."

"You may not know, but our Kuai family is in the eyes of Yingtianfu, but there has been reliable news that before the expedition, Xiao Han's kid didn't even resist in the court, and his mouth spurted blood."

"So, from the old man's point of view, Xiao Han's body is likely to be as the old man guessed."

"Today, I won't go around the bend with you, on the Yangtze River, my Kuai family has raised a group of water thieves with more than 1,000 people as a backup force."

"What hole cards do you have at home, I don't know... Can you be honest? ”

Kuai Pingfeng's gaze swept towards the heads of the three families present.

"Brother Kuai, when did you quietly make a group of thousand-person water thieves, it won't be that group of black sailers, right?"

"Since Brother Kuai is so atmospheric, then my Huang family will not hide it, the group of mountain bandits in Jiulong Mountain is from my Huang family, the number is close to two thousand, and the equipment is reasonable."

Huang Youxin's eyes lit up.

"The Jiangkou Dart Bureau is my Cai family's secret industry, and it is also a thousand people, if there is a need, you can use it."

Cai Chongwen nodded slightly, and then looked at Chi Hanli with Kuai Pingfeng and Huang Youxin.

"Ahem, ahem!"

"This... My Chi family didn't raise such a force, but the Lin Villa, which has risen in recent years, is actually a distant kinship force cultivated by my Chi family, and most of the tenants on the village are quite loyal, and if they are equipped with weapons, they can pull out more than 2,000 people. ”

Chi Hanli coughed dryly twice, hesitated for a while, and finally spoke.

"Huh."

"The Lin family is really your person, how could I be a foreigner from their family who suddenly took so much land and got the Beishan mine."

"Brother Chi is really willing to do it, you must know that the forces participating in this operation, whether they succeed or not, basically have to let the court kill them."

Kuai smiled with the wind.

"Haha!"

"Brother Kuai laughed, it's just a secret affiliated family, if you can really get rid of Xiao Han, it will be gone."

Chi Hanli smiled awkwardly, but he was already secretly scolding in his heart, the ghost knew that he was going to do so much suddenly, and their family didn't have any secret green forest forces, so they had to take the loyal affiliated family on top?

"In this way, the four of us together have six thousand people, but this is still not enough, Xiao Han and they will have two days to come to us."

"It's time to make some stories about the rivers and lakes, and then, trick some Diao people into following our people to attack the Ming army's fleet."

"This matter, everyone is also skilled, remember to pick yourself cleanly, don't be implicated at that time, and catch the handle of the Zhu family's royal family."

"Remember, today a few of us were drinking tea and playing chess in the villa, and we even almost fought, and we didn't talk about anything else."

Kuai Pingfeng said, grabbed a white jade chessboard from behind, and threw it to the ground.

Bang!

With a crisp sound, the valuable white jade chessboard suddenly shattered to the ground.

"Everyone, do you understand?"

Kuai said lightly.

"Understood!"

"Brother Chi plays chess and Laipi, this chessboard, Lao Tzu fell."

Huang Youxin smiled.

"You fell? Yes. ”

"Remember to pay it when the time comes."

The corners of his mouth were hooked.

"Haha!"

"Hahahaha!"

…

Several powerful family heads glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Above the Yangtze River.

Daming flagship.

"Brother Tong, why haven't you seen Brother Fengxue come out these days?"

Lan Yu couldn't help but be a little curious when she saw that it was Tong Zhangshun who was passing the word on her behalf.

"Grandpa Guo has recently been drafting an administrative strategy for my next Ming Dynasty, and the less important things will be conveyed by us."

Tong Zhangshun glanced at Lan Yu and arched his hand slightly at Lan Yu.

"Oh?"

"It's a pity to be so busy, come on, come on, serve the wine first, something interesting happened in Xiangyang recently."

Lan Yu said as he slapped open a jar, the high wine produced by the Duke of Xiao Hanguo.

"What's interesting?"

Mu Ying was quite interested, and immediately opened a jar of wine and asked.

Although Xiao Han suggested that he stay in southern Xinjiang directly and let Xiao Han go back to get the canonization, Mu Ying finally decided to return to Jinling first.

It's not that he doesn't trust Xiao Han, he believes that Xiao Han does have this ability, but he always feels that the process that should be taken still has to be followed, so as not to fall into the hands of others.

"Hey!"

"Recently, there was a group of water thieves in Xiangyang who hooked up with a group of thieves, and then pulled up a dart board and a member, made up thousands of people, hit two county seats, robbed the grain depot, opened a warehouse to release grain, and rebelled on the spot.

The blue jade monster laughed.

"No, what's so funny?"

Zhu Wenzheng frowned, what's the matter with this blue jade?

Someone rebelled, and he's still here to watch jokes.

"It's not a good thing to happen in normal times."

"But this is just in time for us to catch up, isn't this a feat delivered to the door?"

"This hasn't responded to the sky yet, and there are military exploits that take the initiative to send it to the door, shouldn't you laugh?"

Lan Yu took the wine jar, took a sip, and said as a matter of course.

"Hey!"

"Brother Tong, what are you still doing here?"

"Sit down and drink."

Lan Yu caught a glimpse of Tong Zhangshun, who was still standing and seemed to be about to leave directly, directly pulled a chair, and then dragged Tong Zhangshun over.

"Several generals are all my Ming nobles and prominent statuses, and Tong is just a guard..."

Tong Zhangshun stood still and didn't let Lan Yu pull, and said with a glance.

"Hey!"

"Lao Tong, don't come to this set, don't we know what your situation is?"

"Fengxue, he didn't treat you as a guard at all, we are all our own brothers who fought together, it's not interesting to talk about this. How? Look down on us? Think how many of our brothers are not worthy of being brothers with you? ”

Lan Yu looked at Tong Zhangshun.

Xindao This kid is still pretending to be garlic here, such an important power, the wind and snow have been given to you, you tell us that you are just a guard, who will believe you when you say this?

"I don't mean that, General Lan doesn't want to smear people's innocence out of thin air."

Tong Zhangshun frowned slightly.

"If you don't, sit down and drink."

"He didn't come to the celebration banquet in the snow, the old runaway drinker, today you came, you drink for him."

"Let's say okay first, don't run away from drinking, Fengxue is weak, a few of us are embarrassed to be too ruthless, you are fat and strong, my brother is not polite to you."

Lan Yu said with a smile.

"In that case, then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate."

Tong Zhangshun snorted coldly, this Lan Yu clearly looked down on his amount of alcohol, although since he followed Xiao Han, he didn't drink much time, but when he was out of the mix, he Tong Zhang Shun was also a generation of wine gods, and when Lan Yu was so engaged, he suddenly became angry, and he wanted to touch Lan Yu.

Next, Mu Ying, Lan Yu, Zhu Wenzheng, and He Wenhui began to discuss how to deal with this group of thieves while drinking.

It's better to talk about it than to drink and brag.

Except for Tong Zhangshun, who was bored and drinking, these were all fierce generals who led more than 10,000 troops to fight and block one side alone, and they naturally didn't pay attention to a rabble of thousands of people.

You say two thousand people are flat.

I'll just say one thousand five.

And he took a thousand, eight hundred...

As for Tong Zhangshun...

"General Lan, come, I respect you!"

"General Lan, come, treat us as brothers, and drink this mouthful."

"General Lan, so-and-so did it, you are free!"

…

"Report!"

"Mu Shuai, generals, a group of thieves drove a thousand small boats and went straight to our fleet."

Just as a few people were drinking, the herald suddenly rushed in.

"Hey!"

"We haven't gone to strangle them yet, but we still dare to attack our Daming's fleet, it's really an old birthday star hanging, and it's tired and crooked, right?"

"Come on, call five hundred brothers with good water nature, and come with us to raise this group of pure thieves!"

"Brothers, drink first, wait for us to come back in a moment, and punish ourselves!"

Under Tong Zhangshun's wave of attacks, Lan Yu, whose face was slightly red, couldn't help but slap the table angrily and scolded angrily.

Lan Yu's face was a little unbearable at this time, he just said that as long as he brought five hundred people and hung out his "blue" character flag, thousands of thieves would inevitably flee from the wind, but before these words fell, the other party hit the door, didn't this directly hit him Lan Yu's face?

If he could endure this, then he would not be a blue jade.

While speaking, Lan Yufeng ordered the troops and ordered the boat, and led the people out to kill.

Lan Yu left, Mu Ying, Zhu Wenzheng, He Wenhui and Tong Zhangshun couldn't take another sip, and suddenly another herald ran in.

"Report! Mu Shuai, generals, General Lan Yu drove away with those thief boats, but another thief's boat rushed over. ”

…

It was another two waves of pirate boats in a row, and Zhu Wenzheng and He Wenhui all left with people one after another.

"Report! …”

"Another thief ship is coming?"

The herald was halfway through his speech when he was interrupted by Mu Ying.

"The handsome man is like a god."

The herald snapped his ass.

"Why do we feel something is wrong?"

"It's... Turning the tiger away from the mountain? ”

"What are they going to do?"

"Send a warship to send them away."

Mu Ying frowned and said coldly.

Mu Ying's military level is not low, but when he was with Xiao Han, Xiao Han directly calculated everything, which made Mu Ying look like a tool man who was simply responsible for execution.

Bang!

Not long after the herald ran out to give the order, all of a sudden, Mu Ying and Tong Zhangshun both keenly felt that the flagship ship shook slightly.

"It's not good, the water ghost scuttles the boat!"

"What a bunch of cunning thieves."

"Brother Tong, remember to keep watch for the wind and snow, I'll arrange it."

Mu Ying said, and immediately took someone down.

Tong Zhangshun also ran towards Xiao Han's room.

In Xiao Han's room, at this time, Xiao Han was holding a military book with one hand a little awkwardly, as if he had something on his mind, he didn't turn a page for a long time, and he didn't even find that the military book was reversed.

Bang!

Suddenly, the door was suddenly violently kicked open, and then a man in black rushed in directly, and a dagger stabbed straight at Xiao Han's throat.

Bang!

Xiao Han's pupils shrank slightly, and he threw away the military book in his hand, and then turned over dexterously, dodging this time, and pulled out the portable sword that had not been used several times hanging on the wall behind him, and slashed at the assassin in front of him with a sword.

Boom!

This sword was powerful, and the assassin hurriedly drew his sword to block, but he was invincible to the strength of this sword, "Wow, wow! "Take a few steps back in a row.

"You... Are you Xiao Han? Are you sickly? ”

The assassin's pupils vibrated and he opened his mouth incredulously.

With the sword just now, he felt his hands go numb.

With such a lot of energy, you tell me this thing is weak and sick, foolish?

If this thing is all weak and sick, what is he? Sick seedlings or kidney deficiency?

"That's not right!"

"This kind of intelligence can't go wrong, you're not Xiao Han!"

The assassin shook his head, and then stared at "Xiao Han" in front of him.

"Yo!"

"Has it been discovered?"

"Sure enough, it's still difficult for me to play a cultural person like Grandpa Guo."

"Xiao Han" shook his head slightly, and then pressed down, and slashed at the assassin in front of him with another sword.

Boom!

Another collision, the assassin was completely defeated by the fake Xiao Han in front of him and retreated for a while, and the wooden ground was stepped on by him several sinking footprints, only to feel that the tiger's mouth was numb, and the whole person was about to fall apart.

Bang bang bang!

Seeing that the fake Xiao Han was about to kill again, the assassin didn't dare to stay at all, so he planned to run away quickly.

As a result, I saw Tong Zhangshun rushing over from outside.

Before he could react, Tong Zhangshun's palm, the size of a fan, had already reached out like lightning, and a palm slashed into his neck, instantly causing the assassin to lose consciousness.

Immediately, Tong Zhangshun directly reached out and broke the assassin's mouth, and with his hand, he deducted a small piece of poison from his teeth.

"Hold him up and bring him back to the heavens for interrogation with the torture instruments of the Jinyi Guard."

Tong Zhangshun said lightly to the fake Xiao Han.

"It's the instructor!"

Fake Xiao Han responded, tore off the mask on his face, and walked towards the door.
