Li Mi's public identity in the rebel camp was that Wang Bodang, the hero of Jiyang, Wang Bodang was the messenger of his brothers. Li Fengyun maintained close contact with the Wagang people through him. The special relationship between Li Fengyun and the Wagang people was an open secret in the camp. In addition, Li Mi was brought to the alliance headquarters by Wang Bodang himself, so no one suspected that Li Mi's identity was fake.

Li Mi only wants to cooperate with Li Fengyun. As long as it can influence Li Fengyun's decision, in the Central Plains game, the "chess piece" of the Rebel Alliance will be able to play the role he needs according to his requirements. Therefore, he hides himself deeply, lives in the main camp and never contacts other rebel leaders. This is actually an attitude and a hint, telling Li Fengyun that his purpose of coming here is to cooperate, each with each need, and has no other intentions. Li Mi's approach obviously won the favor of Li Fengyun, which can be seen from Li Fengyun's invitation to talk frankly every night, that Li Fengyun also has great sincerity and expectations for this cooperation.

Today, Li Fengyun was abnormal and invited Li Mi to go to the commander's tent in the scorching sun. Moreover, the person who came to send the message was the recorder of the General Administration Office and the military affairs. It was obvious that a big thing happened, but Li Mi was not dissatisfied. She shook her palm fan and walked quietly, calmly, with a calm and gentle look, as if she was expected.

"The Censor Wei Yunqi, the Censor, has left the prison." Li Fengyun said calmly while inviting Li Mi to sit down.

Li Mi nodded and asked, "The general's elite is still on the line of Cai Shui?"

"A certain person has ordered the regiments of the Selected Front Army to retreat to the east bank of Tongji Canal quickly." Li Fengyun said, "At present, there are still a large number of victims who are on their way to Henan. Once a war breaks out, the innocent will be affected, so please do your best to help."

"General, there is no need to worry. Wei Yunqi's exit from the customs was nothing more than acting as the vanguard of King Yang Nan of Qi, paving the way for King Yang Nan of Qi to go out of Beijing to suppress the rebellion. However, the current situation on the front line of Tongji Canal is too chaotic. Even if Wei Yunqi has the ability to penetrate the sky and the earth, he would not dare to jump in alone. Therefore, it will take some time for him to move south. He must first arm himself and integrate the rural clan armed forces in various parts of Henan to form combat effectiveness. At the same time, he uses the victims to flee to Yuzhou and put pressure on Yingchuan and Huaiyang counties to force Yingru to send troops to quell the rebellion, so that he can attack the front line of Tongji Canal.

The rebel army formed a clamping attack. However, Yingchuan and Huaiyang counties could not cooperate with him in suppressing the rebellion on the front line of Tongji Canal. The reason was that the influx of victims caused tension and large-scale riots could break out at any time. For this reason, the Yingyang Mansion in Yingru area could only mobilize all forces to provide relief and resettle the victims, and do its best to maintain the stability of the Yingru area. Therefore, at this moment, Yingru will not only not hinder the entry of the victims, but will open the door to accept the victims. Otherwise, where would they have the reason to deal with Dongdu and reject Wei Yunqi?"

Li Mi was very vocal, but Li Fengyun was famous.

Yang Xuangan of the Eastern Capital will not cooperate with Wei Yunqi to suppress the rebellion, but will not give more support to the rebel army. Once the rebel army sent all the victims to Yuzhou, although it seemed that they had lost the big burden and went into battle lightly, they actually lost the hostage and no longer had the "fatal weapons" that could threaten the Dongdu, local governments and Yingyang Mansion. In other words, the situation is about to change, and this change is beneficial to the official but very unfavorable to the rebel army.

Li Mi finally found an opportunity to take the initiative. If your Rebel Alliance wants to survive and develop, you must cooperate with me and obey my command, otherwise you will be in trouble.

Li Fengyun didn't think this was a big trouble, and he would not hand over the initiative to Li Mi and let him slaughter him.

"Wei Yunqi's out-of-guard rebellion must have received support from the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the change in attitude of Henan people directly changed the situation on the front line of Tongji Canal." Li Mi continued, "According to someone's estimate, if the Zheng family of Xingyang puts all their strength into it, at least it can bring together a army of tens of thousands of people for Wei Yunqi, but the Zheng family cannot expose all its strength. Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, Wei Yunqi will probably get about three to five thousand people in the next few days."

"What about the Wei Mansion? Have the Yingyang from Xingyang left the pass?" Li Fengyun asked.

Li Mi shook his head, "The military is tough and will never go out to suppress the rebellion without the orders of the emperor and the central government. However, if the Tongji Canal is interrupted, it will seriously endanger the security of Dongdu, affect the victory or defeat of the Eastern Expedition, and affect the lives of a large group of military and political chiefs in Dongdu. According to the law of military development (wartime system), the military must first take action and then report, and decisively send troops to suppress the rebellion."

Li Fengyun's heart suddenly rose. He realized that there was something in Li Mi's words, and realized that Wei Yunqi had gone out of seclusion to suppress the rebellion at this moment, and there must be an ulterior motive behind him.

The basis of Li Mi and Li Fengyun's cooperation is that Tongji Canal cannot be interrupted. Once Tongji Canal is interrupted, the entire situation will be out of control. Neither Li Mi nor Li Fengyun can control the development of the situation. However, if King Yang Nan of Qi wants to leave Beijing to suppress the rebellion, he must let the situation get out of control, and the rebel army and his political opponents lose control of the situation at the same time. In this way, the initiative will come to his hands, and he can lead the army out of Beijing to suppress the rebellion with justification. In the face of absolute strength, no conspiracy can be carried out. King Yang Nan of Qi and the army of the Guard who supported him will win the final victory.

Li Fengyun and Li Mi looked at each other, and they both read what they needed from each other's eyes.

Wei Yunqi left the pass at this moment, not to suppress the rebellion and suppress the thieves, but to wait for an opportunity to cut off the Tongji Canal and open the door to the King of Qi Yang Nan to leave Beijing to suppress the rebellion.

"July." Li Fengyun spoke, with a pun in his words, "July is the key."

Li Mi's face changed and became a little gloomy. "The general once told me that the King of Qi was the only candidate for the inheritance of the imperial throne."

The implication is that although your political position is opposed to the emperor and the reformists and advocates changing the imperial regime, you firmly support King Yang Nan of Qi. Since that is the case, let King Yang Nan of Qi go out of Beijing to suppress the rebellion, isn’t your goal? Since your goal is to make King Yang Nan of Qi build a contribution to the suppression of the rebellion, the Southwest Shandong Rebel Alliance is the "chess piece" in your hand. In order to help King Yang Nan of Qi take office, you will have to sacrifice the entire Rebel Alliance. Since you have decided to sacrifice the Rebel Alliance, what are you still worried about? From this, do you still need to continue to cooperate with me now?

Xiao Yi, who was always sitting on the side silently, couldn't understand it, his eyes were full of confusion. What were these two people in the fog and saying? Why did Li Fengyun say "July is the key"? Why did Li Mi change the topic and jump to the inheritance of the imperial throne after hearing this?

Li Fengyun stopped talking and looked at the map hanging on the side of the tent, thinking about something.

July is the key. On the battlefield of the Eastern Expedition, July is the turning point of the victory and defeat between the two sides. If King Yang Nan of Qi wants to leave Beijing to suppress the rebellion, he will definitely choose to take action in July, which can ensure stability and worry-free advancement and retreat. It is inferred that the time left for the rebel army to continue to plunder Tongjiqu is very short, and according to the Western Expedition plan drafted by Li Fengyun, he would never fight the head-on battle with the official army on the front line of Tongjiqu. As long as the Dongdu sends troops, he will retreat decisively and return to southwestern Shandong and continue to grow with Mengshan.

Li Mi was misled by the information revealed by Li Fengyun. So far, there is no evidence to prove whether the black hand behind Li Fengyun was King Yang Nan or a wealthy family in Shandong. He even thought that the Rebel Alliance was the victim of Li Fengyun's political goals. The "July is the key" that Li Fengyun just said further misled him, making him think that Li Fengyun was about to run away. With no choice, he had to "confront" Li Fengyun. Who are you? What is your purpose?

After a long time, Li Fengyun turned his eyes to Li Mi and asked solemnly, "Who do you think is the most suitable heir to the imperial throne?"

Li Mi looked contemptuous and closed her mouth tightly. He didn't expect Li Fengyun to ask such an idiotic word. Who is the most suitable heir to the imperial throne? Since I don't support King Yang Nan of Qi, isn't the answer coming out? Do you still need to ask?

However, Li Mi also read the answer he needed from this sentence. All extraordinary people have great ambitions, especially those who are rebellious like Li Fengyun! How can people be willing to drive others and work hard for others? With Li Fengyun's current strength, he is enough to expand his ambitions and make him think about it. Is there any kind of king, prince, general, and minister? The more a thief is born, the more superstitious he is to rebel, the more reasonable hegemony is. Li Fengyun finally revealed a little real voice, he wants to use other people's hands to strengthen himself and then dominate the great cause of kingship.

Li Fengyun kept staring at Li Mi's eyes. From the subtle changes in Li Mi's eyes, he probably had his misleading success.

Li Fengyun laughed and took the initiative to propose new conditions, "What do you need to do by sir?"

"Someone needs a general to create a miracle." Li Mi said without hesitation. "Maybe the general lacks confidence, but some have enough confidence to let the general create a miracle that shocks Middle-earth."

Li Mi is welcome. You are ambitious and very good, but if you want to get closer to your goal, you must listen to me now.

"I am not confident enough." Li Fengyun bargained, "Although my army is large in number, it is seriously lacking in weapons and has no power to fight. If Dongdu sends troops, I will retreat and will never confront the official army head-on."

Li Fengyun's meaning is very straightforward. When I came to Tongji Canal, I just robbed and chaotic the situation in the Eastern Capital. The more fierce the forces in the Eastern Capital fight, the safer the Rebel Alliance will be. Of course, once the situation is wrong, the Rebel Alliance will immediately flee.

Li Mi hesitated and said nothing. Li Fengyun clearly "extorted" a batch of weapons from him, but it doesn't matter. It's impossible to have a horse run away and not eat grass. But after Li Fengyun got the weapons, will he keep his promise, obey his own orders, and direct the Rebel Alliance to give a fatal blow to King Yang Nan of Qi? Or the same sentence, who is behind Li Fengyun? Li Fengyun has ambitions, which is beneficial to him, but how big is this ambition? Is it so great that he betrays his benefactor?
