Fang Ling was too thunderous and powerful to stand on the top of the mountain, and a sense of pride surged in his heart.

Since taking over Fangling County, Lei Daneng has shown an unusually iron-fisted side, taking the name of Taiwei's protégé, adopting thunderous means to disperse the original various small gangs in Fangling City, and installing his cronies in important positions, which quickly stabilized the situation.

After that, Lei Daneng organized troops to attack the rebels from Xiangyang County, and joined forces with the Taishou of Fangling and Badong Counties, and so far has achieved good results.

There are a lot of rebels in the three counties of Fangling, Badong, and Yiling, and their forces are mixed, but there are only four powerful ones, adding up to 50,000 or 60,000, and most of them are concentrated at the junction of the three counties.

The imperial court had more troops at the junction of the three counties.

Jingzhou has been recruiting troops, and at present, there are more than 40,000 under Yiling Taishou.

Although Liangzhou has been supporting Wuyuan and Shuofang, Jia Song is very concerned about the situation in Fangling and Badong, so there are support troops to come, Lei Daneng and Badong Taishou's troops in the field are slightly less than Zhiyiling, but each person is also in the early 25,000s, although most of them are recruits, but there are also many civilians under the rebels who have just been recruited, so they do not suffer a loss.

There are still more than 7,000 people in Fangling City, most of them are veterans, and they are controlled by Lei Daneng's cronies.

Speaking of which, war is really a buying and selling business.

"My lord, according to the opinion of my subordinates, the forces from Xiangyang County are not enough, if we work harder, we will be able to eradicate them soon, and it will be a great achievement at that time!"

Looking at Lei Daneng's high-spirited appearance, the guards on the side took the opportunity to say good things.

Lei Daneng said: "Those guys in Xiangyang County took advantage of the fact that the imperial court and the Xiongnu were all out to make trouble everywhere and disturb Jingzhou and Liangzhou. ”

He shook his head as he spoke, he was a disciple of Taiwei Lu Shiqing, he had a hot temper, and he was extremely bloodthirsty in his bones.

He had killed a lot of civilians in the city before, because there were many people in the city who publicized Li Wuchang's affairs in private, and their words more or less felt sorry for Li Wuchang.

Li Wuchang obviously came to help Fang Ling stabilize the situation, but he was persecuted and almost died without a place to be buried.

"My lord, having said that, let's not be careless!"

A strategist reminded in time: "Especially Li Wuchang, that guy has made a monstrous wave in Yongzhou since the incident, some time ago after the Hanshui Gang took Hongnong, and went to Jingzhao to make trouble for several days, and now it is outside the city of Fangling, and it is clear that he has bad intentions, we must not guard against it, my lord!"

After a pause, he proposed: "My lord, why don't we divide some troops back to the city, in case Li Wuchang launches a crossover, Fangling City is afraid that there will be danger!"

Lei Daneng snorted coldly: "He Li Wuchang can make such a big move, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is a good time, not how much ability he has in himself, now he has some good troops, but he doesn't even have 10,000, and he can fight at most 4,000, how can he eat Fangling City? I think he can only live a life of hiding in Tibet in the future! Now that the situation in the southeast of Fangling is very good, and he is just taking advantage of the victory to pursue, how can Li Wuchang's child break our rhythm?"

The guard echoed: "What the lord said is not wrong at all! If Li Wuchang's guy hadn't been lucky, he would have died two months ago, where would it be his turn to be such a demon?"

The strategist continued: "My lord, there are indeed no powerful rebels outside Fangling City at present, but if all kinds of miscellaneous forces get together, there are still tens of thousands, so the subordinates still feel that they have to guard against it, in case Li Wuchang plays a joint siege trick again, his subordinates are afraid that Fangling City will repeat the mistakes of Hongnong City!"

Lei Daneng frowned, obviously dissatisfied with the strategist's behavior of always increasing the prestige of others.

The strategist said bitterly: "My lord, it's not that my subordinates are too worried! When Hongnong was broken, the first thing to open the gap was not the east gate of the Hanshui Gang Zhu Changsheng's main attack, but the west gate used by Li Wuchang.

In addition, at that time, there were still many eight-rank beginner masters in Chang'an City who went to save people, but they didn't set off any wind and waves, and all of them were taken down by Li Wuchang and others, which can be seen from this!

Even if he, Li Wuchang, borrowed the power of other forces, but if he didn't have some hard power, how could others listen to him? Also, Li Wuchang had already robbed a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, and grain in Yongzhou, and he had divided a batch in Hongnong City, and Zhu Changsheng gave a batch, so he was not short of money at present, and he had the ability to gather all kinds of miscellaneous forces!"

Lei Daneng was silent, and after a while, he asked, "Is there any news of Zhang Yanbang, Yan Chong, and Liu Jin?" Is it really in the hands of Zhu Changsheng?"

The strategist shook his head and said, "There is no news at present, but there is news that Li Wuchang's eldest brother Li Wufeng and Guo Yunlei, who is under His Royal Highness, have asked Li Wuchang after the Hongnong War, but Li Wuchang really doesn't know.

It is reported that when Li Wuchang was talking to Zhu Changsheng about the conditions, he told Zhu Changsheng that he wanted to take Zhang Yanbang, Yan Chong and Liu Jin, but after breaking the city, Zhu Changsheng and others searched for a lot of effort but did not find Zhang, Yan and Liu.

I estimate that those three people should be Zhu Changsheng hidden, and in the future, I will negotiate with those big families, those three people are all sisters-in-law, and they are worth a lot!"

Lei Daneng asked: "So, Li Wuchang should also know in his heart that those three people are in the hands of Zhu Changsheng, but he didn't make trouble?"

The strategist nodded: "Maybe! But for Li Wuchang, only those few families are not happy, and he will not hold on to it, Zhu Changsheng will always let those families bleed profusely." Li Wuchang's strength is far inferior to the Hanshui Gang, of course, he has to hurry up and leave Yongzhou, otherwise when the Yongzhou army comes back from Shuofang Wuyuan, he will only be unable to eat and walk around. ”

After a pause, he continued: "According to his subordinates, Li Wuchang is definitely different from the ordinary mountain king or green forest gangster, he will never get by, he must want to quickly find a base, and Fangling City is the meal in his eyes." ”

This strategist has been following Lei Daneng for a long time, and he has a lot of city government and strategy, this time he has repeatedly mentioned that he can't underestimate Li Wuchang, even if Lei Daneng is dissatisfied, he has to pay attention to it.

"Do you have any research on Li Wuchang?" asked Lei Daneng.

"A little!"

The strategist nodded and said, "When I was in Chang'an City, I heard that Master Tang praised Li Wuchang more than once, and Zheng Heng and His Royal Highness King Qi also spoke highly of him.

Li Wuchang is a stunned person most of the time, but he has an idea in his heart, and he is willing to humbly accept the suggestions of the people around him, most of the people under him are very young, and they are not famous, most of them are wild, but they should not be underestimated. It can be seen from the fact that he built his second stunned village!

In addition, it is worth noting that there is a person named Wei Xin who was originally a talent under the King of Jin, with martial arts reaching the eighth rank of beginners, brave and strategic, but for some reason he took refuge in Li Wuchang. ”

The guard interjected: "So, that Wei Xin helped Li Wuchang?"

The strategist said: "The grapevine is true, the reason why Li Wuchang was able to avoid the pursuit of King Jin's men was because of that Wei Xin. God knows if Li Wuchang still has any hole cards!"

Lei Da Neng exhaled and was silent.
