After Zhou Shixiang said this, there was no sound in the room. Twenty or thirty men looked at him at the same time, their faces full of surprise. Boss Hu, Zhao Sihai and others were also stunned when they heard it, and Duke Xiang of Song looked at Zhou Shixiang with a strange look on his face.

"So you're serious?"

Cheng Bangjun was overjoyed and excited, wishing to confirm Zhou Shixiang's words on the spot so that Hu Quan and others would not regret it. As for the relationship between Zhou Shixiang and these bandits, he didn't care whether the words worked! He didn't care whether they wanted! All he wanted was these bandits who were willing to attack Luo Dingcheng, and he didn't care about anything else and didn't care about anything else!

Why did the court recruit these bandits? Isn’t it that these bandits can cause trouble for the Qing army in the rear, making it impossible for the Qing army to concentrate its efforts to attack the Guangdong Ming army? Therefore, the title of officials is secondary. What is important is that these bandits are willing to work for the court. Only in this way can Cheng Bangjun’s trip to Daqiao Mountain be considered complete.

As for whether Hu Quan, who had only a few dozen people, could capture Luoding City, it was not Cheng Bangjun's concern at all. With the Guangdong governors and grand ministers, he naturally didn't have to worry about the report of the court's war. He knew very well that even if all these bandits died, it would not matter if the hair of the Qing army in Luoding City did not fall off. In the writing of the governor's corps, the important thing was how to highlight the loyal and brave image of the governor's important ministers who were determined to recover the lost territory, actively contact the Yishi and Yishi, plan in the middle, and swear to fight the Qing army to the end. The result of the battle didn't matter at all, because no matter what the result was, the goal of Guangdong officials had achieved. They just proved to the court and the emperor that they were not at a loss in the face of the Qing army's attack in Guangdong, but actively responded and worked hard day and night to regain the lost territory.

"No vain words!"

Zhou Shixiang ignored Boss Hu's anxious eyes and made a loud affirmation. With this affirmation, Boss Hu was immediately anxious and opened his mouth to stop it. But before he could scream, Duke Xiang of Song pulled him, and he had no choice but to swallow his words. Seeing this, other men who wanted to stop him could only swallow their swear words back into their stomachs.

"When will the troops be launched?" Cheng Bangjun struck while the iron was hot and wanted to make this matter thoroughly practical.

Zhou Shixiang was worried for a moment and said, "Seven days later!"

"Okay, OK, OK!"

Cheng Bangjun has three words "good" in a row. The more he looks at Zhou Shixiang, the more he is, the more he is happy. While feeling deeply, he is impressed by the Xinhui scholar who kills Yunlong to avenge his parents, wife and children.

"General Hu, since your subordinate is so determined, I wish the general a success! When the general takes over Luo Ding, I will personally wear a robe and a crown for the general, and ask for merit from the court for the general!"

The matter has been settled, and Cheng Bangjun was determined to seize the time to lobby the next place, so he tried to succeed in going back before the end of the month, so he was unwilling to stay more. He bowed to Boss Hu, who was still stunned and then lifted his foot away.

"Procedure..."

Boss Hu's throat was dry, and he watched Cheng Bangjun and his party leave. When he looked at Zhou Shixiang, he was already complaining. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

The other men in the house were not as polite to Zhou Shixiang. As soon as Cheng Bangjun left, they exploded.

"My surname is Zhou, you tell me, what will we use to fight Luo Dingcheng in three days, and how can we fight!"

"My elder brother didn't say anything. Why should you, an outsider, make the decision for us?"

"Brothers surnamed Zhou, I respect you as a hero who killed the Tartars and don't care about you. However, we will not fight this Luoding City. If you want to know the truth, leave quickly, so that the brothers will not say anything bad!"

"I said it clearly before. Just taking things without doing anything. This is a big fucking skill. You will let us die. What are your thoughts!"

"Scholars are very ghosts. The one named Zhou is deliberately trying to kill us!"

“……”

Listening to the quarrels of these men, Zhou Shixiang did not defend himself, and just listened motionlessly.

"Scholar, why did you promise to attack Luo Dingcheng? This is really not something we can do, you...ah!" Zhao Sihai still couldn't believe that Zhou Shixiang had decided for them like this. He was shocked and could only sigh.

"Brother Zhou, I know that your whole family is called Tartars to kill. You are eager to take revenge, but you can't take our brother's lives seriously, right?" Peng Dazhu admired Zhou Shixiang and scholars, but it was related to his own life and couldn't help but complain.

Ge Wu and Ge Liuyuan also wanted to complain a few times, but it was obvious that everyone was talking badly, so the two brothers didn't say anything else.

"Stop quarrel!"

Just as the quarrel was arguing, Duke Xiang of Song waved his sleeves impatiently and signaled everyone to shut up. He had a high status in the minds of the bandits. Seeing this, the men closed their mouths.

After calming down, Duke Xiang of Song said, "Don't get angry, brother Xu Zhou is the one with the surname Cheng."

Upon hearing this, Peng Dazhu suddenly realized and slapped his head and shouted: "Yes, Brother Zhou is coaxing the man surnamed Cheng."

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shixiang shook his head and said, "Mr. Song, Brother Peng, I am not tying the Cheng surname, but I really want to persuade Brother Hu and all of you to fight Luodingcheng."

Upon hearing this, Peng Dazhu said in a lost voice: "Brother Zhou, do you really want to ask us to die?!"

A bald man in the crowd stared at Zhou Shixiang blankly: "Crazy, crazy, this scholar must be crazy!"

"What's crazy? I think you're crazy!"

Duke Xiang of Song gave the bald man a angrily glance, and then his eyes fell on Zhou Shixiang's face again, and he said in confusion: "Brother Zhou is not going to join the army in Guangxi, why do you advise us to attack Luo Dingcheng? Have you changed your mind and not go to Guangxi?"

After hearing this, Boss Hu also said, "I'm confused too. Why did Brother Zhou insist on us to attack Luodingcheng? I told Mr. Song last night that I would send someone to take you to Guangxi to join the army today. I wanted to tell you, but I was delayed by the Cheng surname... If Brother Zhou doesn't change his mind, I will ask someone to take you out of the mountain and escort you to Guangxi all the way. As for Luodingcheng, I will just treat it as coaxing the Cheng surname. How about it?"

Zhou Shixiang did not change his mind. He nodded to Boss Hu gratefully and said, "Thank you, Brother Hu, for your kindness, but Guangxi is too far away, and I am not familiar with Li Dingguo's army, so I have thought about it over and over again. Since I can meet Brother Hu on this mountain, it means that Brother Hu and I are destined to be. Instead of traveling through mountains and rivers to Guangxi to join the army, it is better to just follow Brother Hu."

"You want to do it with me?"

Zhou Shixiang's words made Boss Hu's eyes, which had already shrunk, open again, and he said in disbelief: "Brother Zhou, are you going to fuck me? You are a scholar, but I, Lao Hu, are a bandits. There is no reason for scholars and bandits in this world." When he said this, he forgot that Duke Xiang of Song next to him was also a scholar, and he was a scholar who had been a county magistrate.

"Who is born a bandit? Who says scholars cannot join a bandit? Not to mention that they are far away, isn't Mr. Song also with everyone?"

"Mr. Song is different from you, the situation is different..."

Boss Hu realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, and his face was very embarrassed. However, Duke Xiang of Song looked calm and did not mind at all.

"Mr. Song told me about Brother Hu. In my eyes, Brother Hu is a man who stands tall and upright, and all the brothers are well-known heroes. Although I have read books for a few days more than everyone, in this chaotic world where life is like grass, what can I do if I read more books? Can you protect your parents, wife and children from being killed by others?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Shixiang closed his eyes in pain, and for a moment, his eyes opened again were full of hatred. He said to everyone in a deep voice: "In this world, I have no relatives anymore. Now I just want to take revenge in my heart!... Brother Hu, Mr. Song, brothers, I, Zhou Shixiang, don't ignore everyone's lives for my own personal grudges. The Qing army in Luoding City is also a human being, and there are no more hands and legs than us. Why should we be afraid of them!"

Boss Hu took over the conversation and said, "It's not that we are afraid of it or not, but that we are too weak and we can't fight this battle."

"Yes, my brothers have not had sex with the Tartars before, but the Tartars are indeed better than us. We are only such a few people. If we really want to attack Luodingcheng, it may not even be enough to put people in the gaps."

"If it was easy to fight, we would have gone to fight long ago, so why should we hide in this mountain?"

"It's also a blessing for us to have fewer people. If there are hundreds or thousands of people, the Tartars in Luoding City have come to attack us long ago. How can we be happy here?"

"This battle cannot be fought, nor can it be fought!"

Seeing that everyone had no confidence in beating Luo Ding, Zhou Shixiang couldn't help but say, "It's true that we have few people, but because Luo Ding's Qing army did not take us seriously, we wouldn't expect that we would have the courage to fight it, so we would have the chance to win. Be prepared and not prepared. As long as we all work together, I think there is a great chance to win Luo Ding City, at least half of the chance!"

"Besides, there is no war in this world that cannot be fought, and there may not be a victory for many people. Since ancient times, there have been fewer battles that win with less than the more? Since everyone has become bandits and become bandits, their heads are tied to their waist bags, and they may have to land one day. In this case, why don't everyone do big votes? The so-called stealing hooks will be punished, and stealing the country will be a marquis. Killing one is a crime, and slaughtering ten thousand is a hero! Even if it cannot accomplish a big thing, it is always good to be able to grab the money and food of Luoding City, which is much better than robbing the family."

"We are not taking the attack power. No matter how fierce the tiger is, it will take a nap. We can't attack it with a loophole?!"

"Brother Hu, I'm saying this. Should I continue to be a bandit leader in this mountain and bring my brothers to make trouble for the people, or take this opportunity to lead my brothers to Luo Ding for a fight. Think about it carefully!"

Boss Hu was stunned and stood there without any reaction.

There was a strange glory on Duke Xiang of Song's face, and he couldn't help but mutter something. If the person next to him came over to listen, he would say, "Kill one is a sin, and killing ten thousand is a hero!"

None of the men spoke, and before they could digest Zhou Shixiang's words, they were all staring at him blankly. After a long time, Ge Wu, who had a fat face, suddenly cursed loudly: "Damn it, scholars must be big votes. I have been a bandit all my life. Isn't it better to be a scholar? Brothers, if you have a big votes, I will wash Luo Dingcheng!"
