A few days later.

Zhai Changping and others returned to Erduzizhuang.

Previously, Li Wuchang sent Zhai Changping and others to go to Hedong, Hongnong, and Feng Yicheng to inquire about various news in case of trouble.

Of course, we also have to guard against the Zhang family.

Zhang Yanbang and his gang have been back for several days, and the Zhang family has not made the slightest movement, and they don't know what the conspiracy will be.

"In your opinion, will the Zhang family take the initiative to get us during this time, or is there any conspiracy brewing?" Li Wuchang looked around.

Jiang Minglun analyzed: "I think in the matter of Zhang Ya, the Zhang family has to spend some time calming down, and it is good to be stunned by this chaotic punch." The assassination of the viscount in Jingzhao is not trivial, as long as Dali Temple is willing to put a little effort into it, even if it can't catch conclusive evidence, it will make the Zhang family a commotion, after all, we have given a lot of clues. ”

The clue he was referring to was what Li Wuchang said to Zhou Zhutou: Zhang Ya, in his forties, a black-faced strong man, and seven-grade strength.

There are indeed no fewer clues.

Cao Hao frowned and said, "It's been so long, will they still go to check?"

If it weren't for Zhou Zhutou coming to the door, Li Wuchang would not have come to the so-called report, it was purely nonsense, disgusting people, provocations, and did not expect Dali Temple to really give the Zhang family a hand.

Zhao Xun said: "We don't know if Dali Temple will investigate, but Jingzhao County Sang Taishou can count on it, Sang Taishou is a disciple of Tang Zhifeng, and many people comment that he is jealous and hateful and not pedantic, and in recent years, he has been vigorously cracking down on illegal forces in Jingzhao, and his attitude has always been very resolute. ”

After a pause, he continued: "No matter what, let's stay well-informed, and it's always right to be on guard. ”

Li Wuchang nodded, looked at Zhai Changping and others, and said, "Now let's talk about Hedong, Fengyi, and Hongnong." ”

No matter what the Zhang family wants to do next, what should be done still has to be done, and the three places have the Zhang family's industry.

Zhai Chang's face was serious, and he said: "The current situation in Hedong is very complicated, let's talk about Hongnong and Feng Yidong first." ”

After that, he looked at Nie Quan and Xie Changhao.

Hongnong County is located in the southeast of Fengyi and Hedong, and the three counties are three-legged, but Hongnong County is not as troubled as Hedong and Feng Yi, compared to other counties, it is quite a stable county, of course, there are small-scale bandits, Tianluo Gang and Hanshui Gang have not been in the past, which is the luck of Hongnong.

Nie Quandao: "The Zhang family does not have much industry in Hongnong, I took a general look, whether it is the shops in the city or the Zhuangzi outside the city, the defense force is not large, the Zhang family's brand is easy to use, and no one has always dared to make trouble." ”

After a pause, he continued: "There are two things worth noting. First, the Hanshui Gang should have attacked Hongnong recently, maybe there has been some action, but we haven't received any news. Second, it is to confirm the first point, the imperial court will send a group of soldiers into Hongnong City, I have seen the notice, and there is also an old friend of ours, Captain Yan Chong. ”

Hanshui Gang to Hongnong?

This is indeed big news.

"Yan Chong?" Li Wuchang couldn't cry or laugh.

Why is there that guy everywhere?

Didn't he have a hot fight with Lu Xuandong and Lu Xuanming in Chang'an City?

Ran out again?

"Isn't this guy afraid of the bandits of the Hanshui Gang? Zhao Xun laughed, and then said seriously: "Eh, you say, should we remind that Guo Taishou of Hongnong? In addition to guarding against the Hanshui Gang, we also have to prevent Yan Chong's guy!"

As soon as this remark came out, it caused a burst of laughter.

Xie Changhao said: "I'm afraid that the eastern part of Feng Yi is not going to make trouble recently, and Wang Taishou is very diligent in training and patrolling in order to prevent the Khitan masters and Hanshui gang maniacs from Hedong from entering Feng Yi to make trouble. ”

In Dayan, as far as the county level is concerned, if it is not a military town, the responsibilities of the Taishou are very large, and they belong to the real head snake, and the military and political are grasped, and the people below are divided into two factions, the military and the government, and they are fully assisted by the Taishou, and they are generally only controlled by the thorn history of the state to which they belong.

In recent months, Wang Taishou has indeed been very diligent in training troops, and has hoarded a group of elites at the junction of Hedong and Feng Yi, just to prevent a large-scale invasion by bandits and Khitan masters.

Dayou Hedong can't take care of so much, and he will take care of Feng Yi first.

Li Wuchang frowned and said, "Changping, tell me in detail, what's wrong with Hedong, how do you look like you, something big will happen at any time." ”

The Hedong Rebellion began last year, when the Taishou of Hedong was still Wei Tong, and the Hanshui Gang and the Tianluo Gang officially broke away from the base camp of Xiangyang and united to cause rebellion in Hedong, which was tantamount to rebellion.

The bandits also established a stronghold at the junction of Feng Yi and Hedong to confront officers and soldiers, and even instigated rebellion in the military village, endangering Feng Yi.

Feng Yicheng was almost pierced twice.

Li Wuchang and others participated.

Later, Wei Tong was transferred to Jingzhou, and the new Taishou was recommended by Taiwei and his surname was Cui.

In recent months, the Hanshui Gang and Khitan masters have been making trouble in Hedong.

The Tianluo Gang has long been mixed into Luoyang, Xingyang, Xiangcheng and other places, and it is said that the base camp is rooted in Xingyang, east of Luoyang.

The chaos in Hedong is still continuing, there is news every day, it is very stable, the government can't exterminate the Hanshui Gang and the Khitan masters, and the Hanshui Gang and the Khitan masters have no action to gather people to attack the city, just make chaos everywhere, raid the patrol soldiers outside the city, kill people and steal goods, spread rumors, and incite the people to rebel.

The newcomer Cui Taishou also had a few brushes, brought some elites from Luoyang, organized many encirclements and suppressions, and gained some gains, but his own losses were also extremely heavy.

In addition, there are still a group of Luoyang Baidao forces dealing with the Hanshui Gang and Khitan masters.

At present, it seems to be stuck in a quagmire, and everyone is not happy.

"The balance in Hedong is estimated to be broken. Zhai Changping's words shocked everyone's hearts.

Zhai Changping then broke out three more news.

"First, Luoyang City Baidao hero Xiang Kui and Nie Jin duel, almost died, in order to save Xiang Kui's life, Luoyang Baidao forces gave Nie Jin a promise not to attack the Tianluo Gang and the Hanshui Gang within three months. ”

"Second, part of the elite of Luoyang City in Hedong has withdrawn, because the Tianluo Gang has begun to attack Xingyang in the east of Luoyang, and the speed is very fast, it should have been planned for a long time, Xingyang's defense force is not very strong, and the interior is overwhelmed by masters, and the city will soon change hands. ”

"Third, because of the promise given to Nie Jin by the Luoyang Baidao forces, the Baidao masters in Hedong have also withdrawn, and the situation in Hedong is even more critical. ”

As soon as these three points came out, everyone changed color at the same time.

No wonder Zhai Changping said that the balance in Hedong was about to be broken.

Hedong belongs to Jizhou, and Jizhou is already chaotic, so it seems that the imperial court has to think of a good way.

Li Wuchang frowned and said, "Tell me what happened to the duel between Nie Jin and Xiang Kui? Xiang Kui almost died?"

Everyone nodded, indicating that they also wanted to hear the details.

At the beginning, many people knew about it, and they all hoped that Xiang Kui could teach Nie Jin a good lesson and combat the arrogance of the Tianluo Gang.

Li Wuchang even wanted to figure out the time and place, thinking about watching it.

It's a pity that there was no fight later, saying that Nie Jin had something to do to go to Jingzhou temporarily, and he didn't know what to do.

"I also heard from people in the rivers and lakes, and now there are many people in the rivers and lakes in Hedong, and the news is very well-informed. Less than ten days ago, Nie Jin and Xiang Kui duel in Xingyang, and there were many people who went to watch and witness the underworld and white way, including several masters of the White Horse Temple, the white road forces of Luoyang City, and even the giant Kou Zuoqian of Dongting Lake and the Jiujiang madman Sikong Sheng all passed, there were a lot of people, and the scene was very big. Zhai Changping said roughly.

Everyone was shocked.

There was such a big commotion.

It is said that the two fought for more than a thousand moves, and the world was discolored, and the sun and the moon were gone, and finally Nie Jin made a trick that everyone had never seen before, the power was extremely amazing, Xiang Kui couldn't resist it, he was shot away on the spot, bleeding all over, and almost died, it was the master of the White Horse Temple who came forward to let Nie Jin stop. Zhai Changping continued.

The crowd was speechless.

After a while, Li Wuchang muttered: "Xiang Kui of Luoyang City is coaxing on weekdays, and he says all day long that he wants to make Nie Jin look good, grandma is a bear, and she was almost slaughtered by Nie Jin, did that Nie Jin beat chicken blood?"

"Changping, you said that there were a lot of underworld and white ways to witness at that time, were there any people from the government?" Jiang Minglun asked.

"No, it is said that it is a matter of the rivers and lakes, and there are no people from the government. Zhai Changping explained.

"Oh my God, at that time, the underworld and the white way gathered together to watch the duel? this ......" Nie Quan was a little puzzled.

In his impression, the underworld and the white way are natural opponents, and it's strange if they don't fight when they meet each other.

"Regardless of the black or white way, Nie Jin and Xiang Kui are grandmaster-level figures after all, and no one should dare to mess around with their duel, just witnesses. Zhao Xun explained, and then frowned: "However, the White Horse Temple suddenly intervened to save Xiang Kui's life, which is obviously not in line with the rules of the rivers and lakes...... Nie Jin didn't go crazy?"

Zhai Changping continued: "Nie Jin didn't make a fuss, but Zuo Qian of Dongting Lake went crazy, and he almost caused a conflict. However, Sikong Sheng, who was both righteous and evil, did not express his position, so everyone did not fight, and in the end, the White Horse Temple and the Luoyang Baidao forces gave Nie Jin a promise not to trouble the Tianluo Gang and the Hanshui Gang within three months, and everyone revealed it. ”

When everyone heard such a grand event, they all looked very yearning, and they couldn't calm down for a long time with all kinds of pictures that might have happened at that time.

Li Wuchang came back to his senses and said in confusion: "The Baidao forces in Hedong have not had any definite news, and now they are about to withdraw from Hedong?

Zhai Changping nodded and explained: "Although the Baidao forces in Luoyang usually don't like to take care of the affairs of the imperial court, it's just that the Hanshui Gang and the Khitan masters are too arrogant, so they also mobilized a group of masters to go to Hedong, but they are usually not very high-profile, and it is normal that we have not received specific news in Feng Yi, and now I am afraid that they are really going to withdraw from Hedong." ”

Everyone knows.

Zhao Xun muttered: "Nie Jin should have been planning for a long time, and want to break through Hedong and Xingyang in one fell swoop, I am afraid that they have great plans, and take advantage of the imperial court to deal with the Khitan and Huns, and attack Luoyang, if they are allowed to enter Luoyang City, I am afraid that ...... Tsk......"
