Forty-seven-two, I want your life
Time is crucial to victory or defeat. Whether it is a martial arts master, a military expert, or a strategy, the right time can certainly achieve twice the result with half the effort.
When Pei Mingcui planned the second assassination, Li Jing was still waiting, and he was waiting for the best opportunity to take action.
Li Jing is not optimistic today when facing tens of thousands of bandits. The current bandits are no longer optimistic. The bandits are different from the past. Du Fuwei and Li Zitong made a comeback. In addition to training a group of internal and military loyalty to death, the bandits' discipline and equipment have also improved greatly. Without the continuous encirclement and suppression of officers and soldiers, they have had time to train a team with good combat in a few years. Chen Faxing was even a master of the gentry, and he led the elite soldiers of the Great Sui Dynasty.
If one move is not careful, the whole game will be lost. If Li Jing wants to talk about the number of troops, he is still inferior to the three families, but if he wants to talk about the strategy and forbearance, the three families will be inferior to him!
People are on Guabu Mountain, and Li Jing looks far away. Guabu Mountain is in the northwest of Yangzhou City, which is already the area of Jiangdu County, and is even more eyeing by Du Fuwei, Li Zitong and Chen Faxing.
As the head coach, Li Jing has always liked to observe the enemy situation on the front line and grasp first-hand news.
Looking at the yellow dust rolling in the distance and soaring into the sky, Li Jing showed an incomprehensible smile. He knew that it was Du Fuwei and Shen Lun who were fighting, and these two were allies not long ago!
When Du Fuwei and Shen Lun were fighting, they even forgot that Li Zitong was attacking Yangzhou City with all his strength.
Li Jing's original plan was to provoke the relationship between the three people and reduce their strength. The ancients had two peaches and three soldiers, so Li Jing wanted to use Yangzhou as bait to design the three people to kill. But before he could do it, Li Zitong took the lead. Although the process was different, the result was no different.
After all, Du Fuwei has experienced many battles. These days, he has defeated Chen Lun several times, but he was restrained by Chen Lun's military strength and had no time to plot against Yangzhou. Chen Lun was even more holding on. I can't get Yangzhou, so you can't even think of getting involved and pestering him.
Chen Len originally sent a son to Du Fuwei and Chen Lun as hostages, hoping that they would defeat the wolf Li Zitong first. He then imitated Bian Zhuang's method of stabbing tigers, but he didn't expect that the two tigers would bite them without waiting for being stabbed. During this period, Li Zitong took advantage of Du Fuwei and Chen Lun to attack Yangzhou City when they were restraining each other.
Yangzhou City is no longer safe!
Li Jing was not in a hurry to see them biting dogs, but he had already sent Hawkeye and ants to sneak into Yangzhou City secretly to collect effective information. He even knew that Chen Len had not been asleep all night last night. He knew that Chen Len could not withstand Li Zitong's pressure and was ready to take his family to escape at any time.
As we know, either tonight or tomorrow night, Chen Len will be ready to escape, and Li Zitong will soon enter Yangzhou City.
Li Jing was not in a hurry. He knew that everything now was just an appetizer. The show was officially started when Li Zi entered the city!
At night, Chen Xiaoyi arrived quickly, bringing the expected news, "General Li, Chen Len abandoned the city and fled. He actually defected to Du Fuwei, and Li Zitong entered the city at night and had already taken control of Yangzhou!"
Li Jing was not surprised, "Continue to pay attention to Li Zitong's movements!" Seeing that Chen Xiaoyi was about to speak but stopped, Li Jing asked, "What else is there?"
Chen Xiaoyi said: "General. Eagle Eye was trying his best to monitor Li Zitong's movements. But he found that Jiangdu County was near Yancheng, Haiti. There were large troops near Zhongli County on the left side of Jiangdu. The two teams should have about 10,000 people and no signs. They are now approaching Yangzhou."
Li Jing frowned and pondered without saying a word. He did not think of who was in charge of these two armies.
Logically speaking, neither of these two armies should be a team of three parties to fight, because at the moment, they did not need to hide, and there was no one nearby with the ability to mobilize such a large army except these three people. While pondering, there was another news coming to report. Li Jing opened it and breathed a sigh of relief, "It was probably this person's troops."
Chen Xiaoyi was excited, "Who is it?"
"There is news in Li Zitong's army, that is tonight... Li Zitong will be happy to marry Wang Shichong's daughter!" Li Jing said with a smile.
Chen Xiaoyi said in surprise: "Wang Shichong, is he still alive? But this has nothing to do with the Zhongli army coming out in Yancheng?" He suddenly realized, "General is saying... is that Wang Shichong's troops?"
Li Jing smiled and said, "The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind. Now, Li Zitong should have retired successfully. Tonight, Yangzhou will definitely be particularly brilliant!" The instinct can be said to be full of confidence.
He just used a trick to make Du Fuwei and Chen Lun piss off. The three forces, in theory, were slightly weak, but it was Li Zitong who won Yangzhou City. This alone made him proud.
Of course, there is one thing that makes him even happier, that is, tonight he will marry Wang Shichong's daughter, enter Yangzhou City, and become a newlywed man. The wonderful things in this world are nothing more than this.
Wang Ji'er is quite exotic. When Li Zitong saw her, she felt that she should be her own woman.
This is not to say that Wang Ji'er is so beautiful and unparalleled, but her background, and noble and elegant are undoubtedly Li Zitong's lifelong luxury.
Li Zitong is still a thief today. But this thief can occupy the place where Yang Guang lived and press a very noble woman under him. This idea is so exciting to think about.
Li Zitong was very excited. When he led his troops to the county magistrate's mansion, he could no longer hold back. However, he was still quite deep after all, so he seemed to be happy and angry on the surface.
Suddenly a strange thought flashed, Wang Shichong had lived in this mansion before! I don’t know why this thought flashed through, Li Zitong felt a little funny, shook his head and smiled.
The bandits followed him, but the first two were the two who worked hardest in conquering Yangzhou City, one was named Yang Gongqing and the other was named Le Botong.
Yang Gongqing was originally the leader of the bandits in Handan. After Yang Guang was defeated in the conquest of Liaodong, he became famous all over the world for stealing Yang Guang's forty-two horses. At that time, Yang Guang was still a king of heaven, and it was really brave to dare to steal the horses of heaven. However, this thief later went to the north and south and achieved nothing. He defected to Li Zitong in recent years, and today he has become Li Zitong's confidant general, and has made great efforts in this attack.
Le Botong was also a bandit who was powerful in the country. He was extremely skilled in martial arts. After defecting to Li Zitong, he was considered his right-hand man.
Li Zitong looked at his subordinates and sent a series of orders to send them. First, he wanted to control Yangzhou City. Yang Gongqing and Le Botong followed the orders to lead the generals to retreat and deploy the city defense just in case. By tomorrow, everyone would consider dismantling Chen Lun and Du Fuwei.
He attacked him with his remaining power, and Chen Lun's playboy, Du Fuwei was brave but not resourceful, so how could he defeat these two people?
Later, of course, it was the only way to rule the river and wait for an opportunity to attack the Jingxiang land. At that time, as long as you could contact Li Tang, all things were not impossible.
Thinking of this, Li Zitong's ambitions were unstoppable and his past discomforts had disappeared.
But he was a little uneasy, and he vaguely heard that Li Jing had killed Zhang Shan'an and pacified Lingnan, as if he had the idea of taking Jiangdu. However, the uneasiness was quickly diluted by joy. Li Jing was said to be famous, but so far, no one has seen anyone before. I believe that the rumor is exaggerated. As long as he can fully capture the land of Shenfaxing, even Xiao Buyi will not be taken seriously by him, let alone a mere Li Jing.
People are above the high position. Li Zitong thought more than a year at that moment. He was originally a gloomy and cunning person, but no matter who he is, he always has a moment of complacency in his life, otherwise wouldn’t it be boring?
Seeing this, Mao Wenshen was a little uneasy. Seeing that all the generals were taking orders to act outside, he couldn't help but whisper, "Mr. Li, do you really want to marry Wang Ji'er?"
"What, do you object?" Li Zitong asked casually.
Mao Wenshen hesitated for a moment, "Wang Shichong was originally the magistrate of Jiangdu County. Later, he became the chief marching officer of the marching attack on Wagang. Although Xiao Buyi restricted his development, he was once a hero after all!"
"What do you want to say, be more happy." Li Zitong said impatiently.
"I want to say, Mr. Li, you should be more careful about Wang Shichong. I am afraid that he will be ill-behaved and will take over your great cause as already." Mao Wenshen said cautiously.
Li Zitong was silent for a moment, "What do you mean?"
"If I want to do this, on the wedding night tonight, we can ambush people in the lobby and wait for Wang Shichong to take charge of the marriage, and kill Wang Shichong once and for all!" Mao Wenshen suggested.
If it were someone else's suggestion, Li Zitong would probably slap him in the face. But Mao Wenshen and Li Zitong have been friends for many years and have been making suggestions for Li Zitong over the years. They can be said to have worked hard and made great contributions. Li Zitong did not want to scold him, but he said a little dissatisfied: "If it weren't for Wang Shichong's plan, how could I get Jiangdu? But if I only got the territory, I would behead the heroes. Wouldn't I let the people who depend on him again be Han?
Mao Wenshen said anxiously: "But raising a tiger is a disaster. I am afraid that if I don't kill Wang Shichong today, he will be beaten back. When General Manager Li took Du Fuwei's territory, he was attacked by Wang Shichong. If it weren't for this, why would the General Manager be embarrassed today?"
Li Zitong pondered for a long time before saying, "Today's wedding, since Wang Shichong married my daughter, he would definitely not plot against my country."
Mao Wenshen shook his head and said, "Want to Yang Jian, the founding leader of the Great Sui Dynasty, wouldn't he steal the throne of grandson?"
Li Zitong hesitated again, and a soldier arrived hurriedly, "Master Li, Wang Ji'er asked for a meeting." Li Zitong was excited, "Please hurry up."
Wang Ji'er was dressed in red clothes and floated in like a red glow. She sat on Li Zitong's lap, reached out and poked Li Zitong's forehead, and smiled and said, "Sir, what are you still discussing?"
Li Zitong looked at Mao Wenshen and signaled him to retreat.
Mao Wenshen frowned, but he did not dare to go against Li Zitong's intentions and stepped back awkwardly. Li Zitong smiled and hugged Wang Ji'er's slender waist, "Of course, it was discussing the wedding night tonight."
His hands and feet were not regular, and he swam on Wang Ji'er. Li Zitong was not an impatient person, just wanted to see Wang Ji'er's reaction.
"But..." Wang Shichong was in a dilemma.
Li Zitong cut off the topic, "Don't mention this matter again. Master, please take us to see how the marriage is planned first."
"Master Li..." Mao Wenshen wanted to say something else. Li Zitong said unhappily: "If you have something to mention tomorrow, don't slap it." He left with his sleeves. Mao Wenshen was uneasy and glanced at Wang Shichong. When he saw him looking over with a smile, for some reason, a chill broke out in his back.
After a few people left, Mao Wenshen couldn't help but go to Le Bo's passage: "General Le, I always feel that Wang Shichong's hidden conspiracy will be detrimental to the general manager, but the general manager is indulging in women and is not prepared for it."
Le Botong's long-lasting solidity looks extremely calm. He usually has a good relationship with Mao Wen. At that time, he led his troops to attack Du Fuwei's camp by pretending to be Chen Faxing's troops.
Seeing that Mao Wen was deeply worried, Le Botong also sighed: "Wang Shichong's heroes will never be willing to live under others."
Mao Wenshen was overjoyed and said, "General Le really thinks this way?"
Le Botong nodded vigorously and said, "It's a pity that I'm a little slight. I wonder if Wang Ji'er is married to the general manager, how can we stand up to her pillow so strongly?"
Mao Wenshen whispered: "Since General Le is interested, then you and I might as well join forces to ambush and kill him while Wang Shichong turns tonight to prevent future troubles. By then, the road is already complete, and we are loyal to the general manager, and the general manager will not blame us." Mao Wenshen is Li Zitong's military advisor, and Wang Shichong came. He posed an unprecedented threat to his status. Therefore, he worked so hard, half for Li Zitong, but half for his future status.
Le Botong was still hesitant, and Mao Wen said in a deep voice: "After the matter is done, I will never treat General Le unfairly. If the general manager asks for guilt, I will bear it alone!"
Le Botong's eyes lit up. He stretched out his hand and wiped his neck and said, "Since that's the case, I will give my life to Military Advisor Mao!"
The two of them had decided to discuss it, and Le Botong immediately went to find someone. But Mao Wenshen walked slowly towards the auditorium. Seeing that it was clear, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Li Zitong and others had arrived in the auditorium. Wang Ji'er spoke softly and the fragrance was soft. Li Zitong felt comfortable and relaxed in her body and mind. For a moment, she felt that her wife was like this and her husband had no more desires!
You can see that in the auditorium, except for the ritual candles that are lit and the bright and bright auditorium, there is no big red wedding letter posted on it. The auditorium is deserted, let alone any joy. Li Zitong was displeased and scolded: "How come the arrangements are so simple?"
Yang Gongqing looked at Wang Shichong behind Li Zitong. It seemed to have a deep meaning.
Li Zitong had no eyes behind her back and could not see the expressions of the two. She walked straight into the auditorium and saw only a rattan chair. She also saw Wang Ji'er and smiled. She seemed to be dissatisfied. She said furiously: "Mr. Lord!"
Gongqing Yang stepped forward and said, "What are the instructions of the general manager?"
Li Zitong said coldly: "I know you are a rough man, but the preparation here is too simple. I will send you half an hour to set up the auditorium. If Ji'er cannot be satisfied, military law will be dealt with!"
After he shouted in a deep voice, the auditorium was silent. When Li Zitong saw that Yang Gongqing was still moving, his anger became even stronger, "Why didn't you go?"
Yang Gongqing suddenly smiled, full of strangeness. When Li Zitong saw him, he suddenly felt chill in his heart. He felt a numbness on his waist. Li Zitong roared lowly before he reached out to hug Wang Ji'er. He felt that his arms were slippery, and Wang Ji'er had already left him like a fish.
Li Zitong's body stiffened, and she looked down and saw a needle stuck between her waist, only a short piece was exposed.
The place where the needle was pierced suddenly became numb. Li Zitong reached out to draw the knife without hesitation. With just a wave, the poisonous needle had been cut off by him.
He is cruel to others and is no exception to himself. Although the poisonous needle is poisonous, Li Zitong doesn't care. The poison of poison can make his heart sink.
Wang Shichong still had a smile on his face, Yang Gongqing was still respectful, Wang Ji'er smiled like a flower, but when she fell into Li Zitong's eyes, she was like the teeth of a poisonous snake and a wasp's tail needle.
Wang Shichong walked to the rattan chair in the auditorium, sat down slowly, and smiled and said, "Sir, the wedding is coming soon and Mount Tai is coming, why don't you kowtow to worship?"
His smile was still humble and still had the same feelings as a father-in-law and son-in-law, but when he heard Li Zitong's ears, he felt creepy.
Just when he was about to move, footsteps sounded outside the auditorium, and dozens of Li Zitong's subordinates rushed in. When Li Zitong saw it, he was not happy but surprised because he saw the strange look like Yang Gongqing on the faces of those people.
Those people holding swords and axes in their hands had formed a siege against Li Zitong. Wang Shichong's smile remained unabated, "Mr. Li, you are bleeding profusely, you must bandage it."
Li Zitong smiled miserably and said, "Wang Shichong, I treat you very well, why are you treating me like this?"
Wang Shichong smiled, "I'm always in charge of you. I know you have worked hard, I only plan to let you have a good rest after your wedding today. I will give you some hard work to my father-in-law. As long as you kneel down and recognize me as my father-in-law, how can I bear to harm you?"
Li Zitong smiled miserably and said, "Okay, I'll worship you, so what can I do?" He stepped forward and knelt down, and suddenly slashed with one knife, and had already scratched Yang Gongqing's waist. This move was quite vicious. After all, Li Zitong was also a hero, deeply surrounded by heavy siege, and his waist was numb. He was shocked. At this moment, he was already clear and indifferent. Wang Shichong was Shangyuan, Wang Ji's children, and only Yang Gongqing could stop him. As long as he forced Yang Gongqing to retreat and escape, there was still a glimmer of life.
Yang Gongqing seemed to have expected that he would take action, and took two steps back. Li Zitong did not attack and retreated, and had already entered the sword and axe driver. One man was desperate, and ten thousand men were invincible. Although there were many sword and axe drivers, Li Zitong could not stop him even if he fought hard.
Li Zitong broke out of the siege and was about to rush into the darkness in a few steps. The opposite side suddenly shouted, "Sir, what's wrong?"
The man was Mao Wenshen, and there were Le Botong next to him, and dozens of people followed behind them. Li Zitong was happy and knew that Mao Wenshen was loyal and shouted sternly: "Stop them!"
He was already shaking. Le Botong stepped forward to support Li Zitong. Mao Wenshen shouted: "Kill Wang Shichong!"
Chapter completed!
