"It seems that my apprentice is really extraordinary, so the team is a beginner, and it depends on whether she can make a name for herself in the first battle." Yan Xu touched his chin, under his preparations, Liu Bei has developed very quickly, and now the recruits have good combat effectiveness, and they have the ability to fight, and they can also free up their hands to deal with those old guys, after all, they have been quite lively recently.

Yan Xu took out an invitation card and smiled coldly, it seems that they can't bear it anymore, after all, although they have joined forces to block the Two Realms Mirror, they can't block the other side for a long time, at most ten years, the Two Realms Mirror will be reopened, and then the Eight Mountains will come to this world, and a few old guys who are the heads of the Eight Mountains must go back to sit in town, losing this precious opportunity to benefit themselves.

So they can't continue to sit and watch the play, they need to go down and personally promote the development of the plot, let everything get into the state as soon as possible, and then reap more benefits during this time.

However, their secret promotion also allowed Liu Bei to soon usher in his own opportunity.

In the face of the millions of anti-thieves who spread across the land of the five states, the imperial court really couldn't sit still, and the 100,000 recruits were divided into two as soon as the preparation was completed, and the two ministers Huang Bo who belonged to the camp of the eldest prince and Lu Zhi who belonged to the camp of the second prince were responsible for the leadership, and they were responsible for the two states of anti-thieves.

Although the troop ceremony was very atmospheric and very bullish, and the two princes dressed up at the same time to boost morale, no one knew the huge pressure in the hearts of Huang Bo and Lu Zhi, the two freshly baked ministers who knelt down and vowed to destroy the thieves.

Can there be no pressure, after all, they have in their hands the 100,000 army that the two princes almost broke their money and made out of the old bottom, if they are all lost, the two princes can consider running away, relying on this little force in Zhongzhou alone can not stop millions of thieves, after all, it takes time to form an army, and what the court lacks is time, so they must not fail, because the consequences are too serious, whether it is for the court, for the camp to which they belong, or for themselves, so even if they die, they have to buy enough time for the court.

But even if the situation is so grim, but what is helpless is that they are still competitors in the face of the big enemy, and they must not let one side overpower the other, otherwise they will be 100% caught by their own camp and cut down the sacrificial flag, in this case, they will use the 100,000 officers and soldiers in their hands to crusade against millions of thieves, to be honest, many times even the two leading ministers want to tell the old man to return to his hometown, who wants to come to this job, but unfortunately they are all selected unlucky eggs, unless they die, otherwise don't want to run, until they carry the black pot to do this work to death can be relieved。

Rao is these two think they are good at leading troops to fight, but in the face of this desperate situation, they are still helpless, they can only continue to merge the army formed by those wealthy gentry to increase their momentum, and strive to win a victory first to reassure the prince and the bastards behind him, otherwise they will lose when they come up, and the reprimand and pull of those bastards alone is enough for them not to think about doing anything next.

As ministers, Huang Bo and Lu Zhike know very well what kind of people those Wenchen are, and they know that when facing problems, the skill of throwing the pot is definitely higher than the ability to let them solve the problem.

Therefore, even if you know that this kind of behavior can be called drinking to quench your thirst, you have to do it.

Huang Bo and Lu Zhi naturally knew that these people were inextricably linked to the ministers of the imperial court, so they merged and annexed, but they must not order them to be sent to death, let alone kill the leader, and make the soldiers under the other party their own, once they do this, even they will not survive.

Therefore, although the strength of the two leading ministers has increased a lot, these people can only fight a good battle, don't expect them to really work hard, after all, these soldiers are all formed by their real money, and there are not enough benefits, don't expect them to die.

Even in order to maintain the superficial subordinate relationship, Huang Bo and Lu Zhi, the two ministers leading the army, could only spill out the various official positions in their hands to win the hearts of the people, although they were all miscellaneous general titles with no real power, but at least they were also official positions recognized by the empire.

Although they need to pay some price for this official position, such as the lives of their soldiers, this price is completely acceptable.

And to some extent, this identity is also a permit to allow them to recruit troops privately, and it is their capital to ensure their own interests or compete for the interests of the world in the future, but for the imperial court, this is the source of future turmoil.

It's a pity that the two of them know that this matter will be endless, but there is no way to avoid it, otherwise they will not be able to pass the current hurdle alone, let alone the future, so it can only be so, after all, even they themselves are from a family, and it is a matter of their own interests, some things are unavoidable, so they can only close their eyes and pass this hurdle first.

After collecting a lot of cannon fodder, the two ministers parted ways and led the troops to Hezhou and Shanzhou respectively, although these two states were also occupied by anti-thieves, but they were not one, divided into many people, more than tens of thousands, less than a few thousand, just suitable for one by one, but also take the opportunity to train troops, in order to deal with those more powerful anti-thieves.

But those anti-thieves are not stupid, during this period of time a big bowl of wine, eat meat, be a groom every night, have long been wild, the initial idea of receiving when you see a good thing is unconscious, so when you see the officers and soldiers coming, the timid ones directly pull the team away, go to other states to be a rogue, still free, there are bold and unwilling, planning to unite against the army of the imperial court, play a world of their own, let the court know that they are not easy to provoke, and then continue their own fairy-like small life.

The ten anti-thieves of Hezhou gathered in Tianpeng Mountain to form an alliance, and the leader was self-proclaimed Marshal Tianpeng, with five generals under him, known as the god of five links.

These five generals are respectively arrows without false hair and big eyes, Shunfeng God ears and big ears, invincible fists and feet Li big nose, clever tongue like a spring horse big tongue, blood basin big mouth palm big mouth.

This name doesn't sound like a real name, in fact, when a thief will not use his real name, after all, this is not a robber on the mountain, at most the entrance of the vegetable market will be stabbed, once the thief happens, the whole family has to go on the road together, so they are all nicknames, so as not to implicate the family and shame the ancestors.

Originally, the anti-thieves in Hezhou divided their territories and fought for their own battles to make the entire Hezhou a miasma, but now they are integrated together, and they have really become the overlords, based on the eight hundred miles of canopy mountains and rivers, flowering on all sides, laying down many county seats, and even the county towns have laid more than one, and the state pastors who have fought have been beaten again and again, and even the most relied on the water army have been pulled away A lot of thieves have been thrown, and the rest of the water army does not dare to let it go out, and it is to defend the water village all day long, which only keeps a little vitality.
