As soon as noon passed, more than 70 grain carriages drove out of Baima Town and slowly drove towards Yinyang City.

In order to hide their identities, Zhao Lanjiang and Li Chengcheng changed their masks, dressed as ordinary businessmen, and mixed in the convoy, and the three hundred elite soldiers of the Western Army also changed their outfits in Baima Town, and even the standard long knives of the Ming Dynasty were replaced by ordinary blades.

After only traveling more than ten miles, Zhao Lanjiang discovered the problem.

These 300 soldiers and horses are the elite of the Western Army, they have been on the battlefield for a long time, their actions are neat and uniform, and they have a sense of slaughter all over their bodies, which is not found in ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, and at such a critical moment, it is easy to be found flawed.

However, the time was urgent, Zhao Lanjiang called the three centurions and explained a few words, and the centurion smiled, "General Zhao, this kind of thing, you don't bother." ”

In a few moments, the entire convoy took on a "new look".

Seeing this, Zhao Lanjiang saw this, and there were a few loud voices, and because a bird flying in the sky was male and female, they quarreled with each other, and greeted each other's relatives and friends.

Zhao Lanjiang couldn't cry or laugh.

The convoy controlled the speed all the way, and arrived at Hidden Sun City in the evening. The city of Yinyang was under martial law for two days, the city gate was closed, and the moat suspension bridge was raised, separating the convoy from the outside of the city.

Sou!

A rattling arrow landed in front of the convoy.

A military general stood at the head of the city and shouted, "Who is under the city?"

At this time, the familiar faces here of Zhao Lanjiang and Li Chengcheng, although they were disguised, just in case, they still selected a gang leader named Wu Changyou from the scouts of the Fengzi Battalion as the leader of the grain team, this person is originally from Shandong, and said with a thick accent.

"me!"

The military general said, "What?"

Wu Changyou said, "We are a caravan selling grain from the Central Plains, we originally arrived in Yinyang five days ago, and we encountered some trouble on the way, so we hurried and hurried over, and the hour was not yet yet, how can we say that the door will be closed when it is closed? Hurry up and open the door for me!"

The military general at the head of the city said, "Get out! It's wartime, the whole city is under martial law, and no one is allowed to enter the city without the order of the city lord." ”

Wu Changyou shouted, "You are a city gate official with a big tail wolf, I advise you to open the door quickly, otherwise, when my third uncle comes, you won't be able to eat and walk around!"

"Oh?" the general was quite interested, and shouted and asked, "Who is your third uncle?"

Wu Changyou took two steps forward, straightened his chest and said, "You all listen well, my third uncle is your Lord Cao, the prefect of Yinyang City, if you don't open the door, wait for me to enter the city, sue your third uncle, and take your job!"

Above the city, there was a loud laugh.

"What are you laughing at?"

The military general pointed to the head of the city and said in a good manner, "The third uncle is hanging there, if you want to sue, I can give you a ride!"

Looking at the city below, there are two human heads hanging on the city wall. One is the former Yinyang prefect Cao Zhizhao, and the other is Ha Jiangyi, a scout of the Fengzi Battalion.

After Li Xiancheng rebelled, he killed the two and hung his head on the city. After a day of exposure, there were crows catching food, and his appearance was a little blurry, but Zhao Lanjiang recognized Ha Jiangyi at a glance.

A wave of anger rose from his heart.

A few days ago, Ha Jiangyi also came to Yinyang City to find him to catch up, and was still discussing that after completing this task, he would return to the capital to reunite with his wife and children.

Among the old people who came, there were also old men from the Fengzi Battalion, and some people recognized Ha Jiangyi, seeing that he was tragically killed, his head was in a different place, and his face was also full of grief and indignation, and he couldn't help but whisper, "Team Ha!"

Zhao Lanjiang held the handle of the knife in his hand, trembling all over, and had the urge to draw the knife and rush to the city at any time.

Li Chengcheng stretched out his hand to stop him, and said, "The overall situation is important." ”

Zhao Lanjiang took a deep breath, his mind was hot, and he almost had a big fight, if this is the case, then today's efforts will be wasted, he whispered an order, and said: "The overall situation is important." ”

Front, Wu Changyou was still messing around, crying and saying: "My third uncle, you died at a really bad time, you asked someone to believe a little to your hometown, saying that people are stupid and come to sell grain quickly, our whole family smashed pots and sold iron, got these 300,000 catties of food, and transported them all the way here, you died without saying a word, this is obviously the life of our whole family!"

Someone else was persuading him, "President Wu, people can't be resurrected after death, but this grain has arrived, why don't you settle all the costs of transporting grain for us first?"

"Where do I have the money?"

"People are dead, but the food is still there, it's really not good, let's sell it cheaply, and we can go back anyway." ”

The military general listened to their conversation at the head of the city, this mighty team of carriages and horses, there were 300,000 catties of grain on it, and now there is a shortage of food in Yinyang City, if you can get it, then wouldn't you be rich?

Thinking of this, he called a subordinate and explained in a low voice, "Go to the city lord's mansion to find the chief of staff of firewood, and say that there is a team of grain dealers from outside the city, and there are 200,000 catties of grain on it, do we want to get it in." ”

......

Li Xiancheng was in the study, racking his brains to think about his year name.

Since the nineteen cities of Yinyang have become independent, it is natural that they can no longer use the name of the year of the Great Ming Tong, the year name, it must be domineering, it is best to bring a "dragon" word, and it must have a masculine meaning, think about it again and again, and decide to take the year name "Longyang", from today, the ten years of Tiantong will be changed to the first year of Longyang.

Chief of Staff Chai Gongwang stepped in, "Congratulations to the city lord!"

Li Xiancheng beckoned Chai Gong to look over, "Chai Gong, come and take a look, I'll ...... How did I get this year?"

Chai Gongwang leaned over, took a look, and saw Li Xiancheng looking at him with a smile, he chuckled in his heart, took two steps back, and said, "Mighty and domineering, my Yinyang Dynasty will prosper!"

Li Xiancheng said, "I think so too." From now on, I will be called the Emperor of Longyang. By the way, what are you doing here?"

Chai Gongwang said, "Today, there is a caravan selling grain from outside the city, the leader is said to be Cao Zhizhao's nephew, it is said that he has 100,000 catties of grain, and now he is seeking us to buy it at a cheap price.

Li Xiancheng groaned, "Chai Gong, the meat sent to your mouth may be poisonous or bait, but don't be greedy." Have they investigated where they came from?"

Chai Gongwang was willing to investigate, he was still worried about the 100,000 catties of grain in his heart, so he was sloppy and said, "Emperor Qilongyang, it has been investigated clearly, Cao Zhizhao does have a nephew, according to the informant, he wrote a letter to his nephew half a year ago, asking him to transport grain." ”

"That's good. Li Xiancheng said, "Bring in the grain, and everyone will be slaughtered." ”

Chai Gongwang said, "Emperor, this is the time to employ people. As soon as those clowns in the city are eliminated, we will have to deal with the Western Army, so why don't we stay in the lead?"

"Very much for me...... I mean, as the Qing family said. The time is still short, and Li Xiancheng has not yet skillfully switched his name, "How are those people in Xuyang in the city chasing and killing?"

Chai Gong said, "The power on the surface of the grocery store has been wiped out, but Xu Yang has been operating in the city for several years, and he is cunning and has some strength in secret, and in the investigation, once he finds his foothold, he will be hit hard!"

"You're doing a great job. I'm going to seal you ......"

Li Xiancheng groaned.

Chai Gongwang was secretly happy in his heart, he was a talent on the ground, he had the talent of the heavens and the earth in his heart, and he boasted that he could be the prime minister, but he didn't expect to be recognized in the Ming Dynasty.

"You are humble, thoughtful, and good at planning, and have made great contributions to my great cause, and in three days, on the day of my enthronement ceremony, I will definitely give you a satisfactory reward!"

Chai Gongwang kowtowed, "Xie Longen." ”

After taking the edict, Chai Gongwang came to the head of Yinyang City, and when the general saw this, his heart was cold, and he said that he wanted something bad, but his face was full of smiles, "This kind of trivial matter, just leave it to our subordinates, how can you come in person?"

Before Chai Gongwang went to the city lord's mansion, he had already ordered someone to come to investigate, seventy carts of grain, at least 300,000 catties, but the guard general said that the number was 200,000 catties, and he had already made a decision in his heart.

"The emperor was not at ease, so he sent me to settle down. ”

"The Great?"

Chai Gongwang arched his hand in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion and said, "City Lord Li is now called the Emperor of Longyang. As he spoke, he handed the order of the City Lord's Mansion to the general and said, "Liu Shirong, see for yourself." ”

The general took the command, and when he saw that there were 100,000 catties of grain written on it, he smiled knowingly, "Chief of staff, after nightfall, the 100,000 catties of grain will be delivered to your house." ”

Chai Gongwang's face showed displeasure, "Commander Liu, who are you and me?"

"Aren't we all the way?"

Chai Gongwang sneered, "Liu Shirong, this chief of staff has written less than 100,000 catties, do you think he is greedy for that money?

As he spoke, he showed two fingers!

Liu Shirong said, "The chief of staff only needs 20,000 catties?"

Chai Gongwang smiled slightly, "Twenty thousand taels, gold, sent to my house at night." ”

Liu Shirong said angrily, "Aren't you robbing it openly? These grains are not worth 20,000 taels of gold after they are all sold!"

Chai Gongwang said, "There are 300,000 catties of grain in the city, but you report to the city lord's mansion that there are only 100,000 catties, General Liu, Commander Liu, if this matter is known to the Emperor Longyang, guess what the consequences will be?"

Liu Shirong's face turned pale when he heard this, "I clearly reported 200,000!"

Chai Gongwang shook his head, "But what I heard was 100,000 catties, General Liu, when the time comes, the emperor will listen to you or listen to me, you will weigh it yourself." ”

Liu Shirong gritted his teeth with hatred for Chai Gongwang, who ate people and didn't spit out bones, but now he didn't dare to obey, so he had to say, "Obey." ”

After Chai Gongwang left, Liu Shirong shouted angrily and ordered the guards to fall off the drawbridge and let the grain team enter the city. Wu Changyou said, "What price is the general going to give?"

Liu Shirong ordered everyone to surround them, and said, "You spies have actually mixed into Yinyang City, tell me quickly, what is the conspiracy?"

Wu Changyou said, "We are really transporting grain." ”

Liu Shirong patted him on the shoulder and said, "I believe in you, but the City Lord's Mansion doesn't believe it, brother, do you want to die or live?"

"Of course I want to live. ”

"Fortunately, you met me, I can speak in the City Lord's Mansion, you take out 20,000 taels of gold, I will help you dredge it at night, maybe I can buy your life." ”

Wu Changyou said, "I think it's better to choose to die." ”

Liu Shirong ordered his subordinates to detain them with their cars and people, and searched them and found that there were nearly 300 people, but there was not even a single tael of silver! He was careless, and he did not find anything unreasonable, so he ordered the group to be detained in the camp in the west of Suzaku Fang, and they were detained with the white horse Yicong who had been unarmored before.
