The end result is clear.

Li Bing agreed, and he used his power as a prefect to open granaries and armories to finance Li Xiu's army.

And after the incident, he bears all the charges himself, but correspondingly, Li Xiuyuan has to ensure that his wife, son, and daughter are not punished.

After the deal was reached, the prefect Li Bing immediately took Li Xiuyuan and others to the armory in Yangzhou City.

"The ordnance has been sealed for a long time, and many of the previous accounts have been damaged, and now they are no longer clear. Li Bingdao: "I can't say how many weapons are in this armory, but General Li can rest assured that no official has touched the ordnance here, because there is no holy decree from the imperial court."

No one will be able to open the doors of the armory. ”

"Oh, is there such a thing? Is the gate too tightly sealed?" asked Li Xiuyuan.

Li Bing shook his head and said: "It's not this reason, but any soldier who is close to the armory, the armor and even the officials will hear the roar of the beast, someone saw a strange beast crawling in front of the armory at night, no one dared to approach, and the official didn't believe it at the beginning of his tenure, and sent someone to prepare to count the treasury, but."

The scribe sent out fainted as soon as he approached the armory, and when he woke up the next day, he had bruises from the bite of wild beasts, and he sent several soldiers to break through in succession, but they all failed. ”

"The official felt that this armory was not yet born, and it was protected by ghosts and gods, so he didn't bother with it, and continued to seal it. ”

"I'm afraid that the gold in the armory is psychic, and it has become a fine and protects the armory. The Yangtze River King, who was traveling with him, whispered.

The weapons in the armory have been piled up for a long time, and it is not impossible for the golden qi to condense and become a demon.

Li Xiuyuan nodded and said: "Then this news is a good thing for me, at least this can prove that the armory has not been hollowed out by corrupt officials, I heard that many officials will buy and sell the armory, on the grounds of attrition, for personal gain." ”

"This is true, but this armory in Yangzhou City is not only not the prefect of the past dynasties because of the protection of ghosts and gods, but on the contrary, there are no people who are willing to come here to manage the treasury, and now it is almost abandoned. Li Bing said.

Li Xiuyuan looked around.

The walls and floors of this storehouse are all made of old bricks and stones, the cracks and floors are overgrown with weeds, the stone skin is mottled, and the doors and windows are also crumbling, and it is true that no one has managed it for a long time.

Directly ahead, however, a huge warehouse door was in front of you.

The vermilion lacquer on the door of the storehouse has faded, but the brass sticking to the door to form a fierce pattern is more and more lifelike, full of spirit, as if to come to life.

"Go, open the storeroom. Li Bing gestured.

The accompanying treasurer immediately cautiously walked over with a few officials, holding an old key in his hand, ready to remove the copper lock on the door.

But before the treasurer and the official could get closer, a sudden gust of wind swept over and blew near the gate of the storehouse, and the treasurer and several officials immediately fell to the ground without warning, and passed out directly.

Li Bing's face was a little ugly and said: "General Li, you have also seen it, this ghost and god matter is not the official's words, but there is such a thing, if General Li can't solve this matter, even if the official wants to help General Li, the official is powerless." ”

Li Xiuyuan squinted his eyes slightly at this moment, the mortal may have just seen a violent wind whistling by, blowing down the treasurer and a few officials, but he saw that the fox on the gate suddenly came to life, and the phantom of a strange beast manifested in the daytime and roared at the approaching people

roared, directly stunned several of them one by one.

"How many weapons are stored in the armory, the golden qi is condensed, attached to the fierce beast on the door, so that this strange beast is proficient and flexible. He was secretly frightened.

It is not a strange thing that the item is psychic and refined, that is, the stone lion at the entrance of the yamen, the wind and rain blow, and it absorbs the luck of the government, and it will also be psychic, which can deter all the ghosts and gods who are close.

The peach talisman and gossip mirror hanging on the door of ordinary people's homes will also have spirituality after a long time, and they have the ability to dispel evil spirits.

But this psychic ability is not worth mentioning at all.

This monster can even stun people, and it has surpassed the scope of ordinary spirits, almost like a ghost.

"Lord Li, don't worry, a mere warehouse can't stop me, it's just a door god guarding it, and if you surrender it, the warehouse door will naturally open. Li Xiu said from afar.

Li Bing said: "General Li, don't talk big, there are ghosts and gods here, there are already many people who have suffered losses, there was a general soldier Sun who also wanted to ask the official for some weapons, and the official also brought him to this armory, but as soon as he approached the warehouse, he was also dizzy, and fled in the wilderness, and never dared again."

It's about asking for weapons. ”

"That Mr. Sun?"

Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "His official fortune is just a general soldier, and the official fortune of the body is at most a lion, although it is similar to this cunning, but how can the lion be compared to the dragon ziyi, his official luck and the door god above failed in the battle, so he naturally wanted to flee in the wilderness." ”

"Which of you is going to open this lock?"

After speaking, he glanced at the few generals behind him.

He didn't believe that all the people under his command couldn't even surrender to a single stubborn man.

"Why don't you let me punish that foxy?" said the king of Yangtze River.

"What did it do, it was just a coincidence, and it was also the duty to guard the armory, and it was not at fault, and it never left here to make waves. Li Xiu said from afar.

The king of Yangtze River said: "If you don't need to kill by brute force, you have to have a holy decree, and once the holy decree arrives, you can suppress this stubbornness, and it is not difficult to open the armory." ”

"If I want to open an armory, is it possible that I still have to ask the Holy Decree to suppress it?" Li Xiuyuan said with a smile.

The king of Yangtze River suddenly remembered Li Xiuyuan's identity, and said with some embarrassment: "Li Gongzi, you will naturally be able to capture you when you opened the armory in the past." ”

"Big young master, let the little one go, the little one doesn't believe that we will take weapons to quell the rebellion, and it will be upright, and there will be ghosts and gods who dare to stop us. Han Meng stood up and hugged his fists.

Li Xiuyuan smiled: "That's right, then you can try it." ”

Han Meng answered, and immediately walked over, took the key from the fainting treasurer, and prepared to open the warehouse.

"Roar~!"

As soon as he approached the gate, sure enough, the fox on the door instantly came to life, jumped down from the heavy gate, and went straight to Han Meng.

Han Meng was just an ordinary mortal and didn't see this scene.

The golden light in Li Xiuyuan's eyes flickered, and he saw that Han Meng had a fortune cover on the top of his head, which was thick like a canopy, which showed that he was also a person with strong fortune and prosperous luck, and there was also official luck that was not obvious, and his life was hidden in it.

Although he has the ability to observe people's qi, he has not learned how to recognize luck, so he does not know what his future holds.

But the achievements of people with such luck will definitely not be low in the future.

Just as the fox was about to pounce on the top of Han Meng's head and bite him, suddenly a red Jiao rushed out of his body to block the attack of the fox.

"The life grid is a dragon, Han Meng actually has a princely life grid, but this dragon is not entrenched around his body, but is just hidden, which shows that he is just a hidden dragon, and he suddenly rushed out to protect the lord only after being attacked by this fierce beast. Li Xiuyuan's expression moved, both a little happy and a little emotional.

How many capable people are there under his command?

However, whether Han Meng can become a prince in the future depends on the opportunity, because the potential life character will change, and it is not as good as the life of a natural prince.

Like that Li Liangjin, he was born noble, no matter how he is powerful, the name of a prince can't run away.

Han Meng felt a strange wind sweeping over at this moment, but he also felt a breeze blowing behind him, and the two winds were entangled in mid-air, as if they were entangled together.

"The potential dragon is fighting on the fierce one, this is the life protection of the character. Li Xiuyuan understood the strength of this life in his heart.

Han Meng can even fight ghosts and gods like Foxy without falling behind, no wonder his innate saint's life has even retreated from ghosts and gods.

"Li Gongzi, Han Meng is a little reluctant to be alone, this spirit is condensed from the golden qi in the armory, even if Han Meng wins, he is afraid that he will damage his life. The king of the Yangtze River said.

Li Xiuyuan saw that Han Meng was unlocking the lock at the moment, but when the wind hit, his eyes seemed to be in the sand, and he couldn't see clearly when he squinted, and he couldn't open the lock.

It's not a coincidence, it's the spirit that is haunting him and won't let him unlock it.

"You're right, it's too early for them to suppress the spirits, and it's not too late to fight the ghosts and gods when they're fully grown. Li Xiuyuan smiled, and then strode over.

He strode as the wind around him stopped.

The dragon in Han Meng's life grid quickly shrank back, and during the dormant period, he didn't dare to show it in front of Li Xiuyuan.

The majestic and majestic fox also felt fear, glanced at Li Xiuyuan, and immediately shrank back with a swish, and attached to the gate again, without showing any more miracles.

The life of the saint is here to suppress all ghosts, snakes, and gods.

"Click~!"

Han Meng successfully opened the copper lock, and immediately turned overjoyed, and turned around and said, "Young Master, the lock is open." ”

"Go in and have a look. ”

Li Xiuyuan glanced at the fierce man on the gate, the bulging copper eyes didn't seem to dare to look directly at him, and the light was much dimmer.

Han Meng answered, pushed open the door, and the armory, which had been sealed for unknown decades, was finally opened.

Li Bing's expression changed slightly when he saw this, sure enough, this Li Xiuyuan was not an idle person, even the ghosts and gods here gave way to him, you must know that as a prefect, he couldn't open the door of this armory, and he was a guerrilla general who could open it.

Soon, the people entered the armory, lit oil lamps, and lit torches.

Under the light of the fire, everything in the armory is revealed.

Each weapon was wrapped in oiled paper and covered with dust, and although it had not been opened for decades, not a single weapon was rotten or damaged.

With just a slight sweep, Li Xiuyuan saw a mountain of spears, waist knives, bows, arrows, crossbows, armor and shields.

He took a waist knife at random, pulled it out and looked at it, it was still as new as ever, and the edge was still there.

"Looking at these weapons, it can be seen that the Great Song Kingdom also had a prosperous and prosperous time, but it is a pity that the swords and soldiers are in storage, and the horses are put in Nanshan, and the prosperity is no longer there. Li Xiuyuan sighed with emotion, he could feel how powerful the cultural and military equipment of the Great Song Kingdom was in the era when these weapons were used.

Li Bing said at this moment: "General Li, the ordnance in the armory is enough to equip 100,000 troops, I don't know how much General Li wants?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled suddenly: "The prefect said before that the armory here has been sealed for too long, and many accounts have been lost, and if I take a little more, no one will know." ”

"Having said that, the armory is an important place for the imperial court, and there are many lost weapons, which is unreasonable. Li Bingdao.

"Don't take too much, isn't the ordnance here enough to equip 100,000 troops? I only need the equipment of 50,000 troops, but after being sealed for decades, the bows and crossbows are no longer usable, I want to take away all the arrows, I don't need too much armor, 30,000 sets are enough, and if there are more, it will be useless, but it will affect the advance."

Army. Li Xiu said from afar.

He currently has 20,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 cavalry, and it is enough to arm his army first.

With 30,000 elite soldiers, as long as they do not rebel, it will not be a problem to run rampant in the world.

And he doesn't plan to expand the army uncontrollably, so it's too taboo to make a big move.

"General Li just knows it in his heart, anyway, the official will be dead by then, and the official can't control what the consequences are. Li Bing said.

Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "It's good that adults can think like this, everyone dies, adults help me today, and I won't regret it in the future." ”

"Brother Wang, the next thing will trouble you, carry weapons today, arm the infantry tomorrow, set off the day after tomorrow, go to kill the King of the Nine Mountains, Li Liangjin, if everything goes well, you can finish the battle before the beginning of spring and return to Jinling City." ”

"Brother Li, don't worry, I'll handle this matter. Wang Ping responded.

Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "I'm relieved to have Brother Wang's words, by the way, Xing Shan." ”

"The little ones are here. Xing Shan walked out with his fists clenched.

Li Xiuyuan said: "You can't have no archers in the army, I will turn around and assign 5,000 foot soldiers to you, let you lead alone, and you can't let your archery skills be wasted." ”

"Thank you, young master. Xing Shan, who has always been taciturn, couldn't help but be surprised.

All at once, he went from being a guard to a commander of five thousand.

Li Xiuyuan said: "But to be a general of 5,000 people, you have to have real skills, although I have allocated you people, but if you can't do it, this general depends on your ability, don't let me down." ”

"Don't worry, the eldest young master, the little one understands," Xing Shan said confidently.

In the army, the commander of the battalion and the captain are all based on martial arts and skills, and they cannot be done simply by relying on relationships.

If his own ability is not enough and he is defeated by other challengers, then Xing Shan's position can only be given up.

"Alright, that's all for today, let's go back and rest. Li Xiuyuan said, and then bowed to Li Bing: "I am accompanied by Lord Lao Zhifu." ”

"It's okay, please also ask General Li to keep his promises, otherwise this official will not live in peace if he is a ghost. Li Bing said with a straight face.
