Pei Ju didn't speak for a long time, for a person like him who had served as Xiangguo for nearly ten years, of course he knew the political significance of the Wagang Army's capture of Liyangcang.

"Hey!"

Pei Ju sighed, "The world is really going to be in chaos." ”.

"The Holy Lord is stepping up shipbuilding and preparing to tour the river capital in the south." Yang Yuanqing said again.

"He won't give up on the Great Sui Sheji so soon!"

Yang Yuanqing shook his head, "It's not enough to give up, the trapped beast is still fighting, a Wagang army scared him to give up Sheji, I think it's impossible, I think he wants to move the capital to Jiangdu, first keep the south, and then use the south as the backing, and then gradually exterminate the Wagang army and Dou Jiande and other bandits, and move the capital to the south, in fact, it is his long-established strategy." ”

Pei Ju smiled bitterly and said: "You are only half right, in the sixth year of the great cause, he decreed that the official grade of Jiangdu is equivalent to that of Jingzhao, which actually recognizes the status of Jiangdu's companion, but this does not mean that he wants to move the capital to Jiangdu, and keeping the south is a reason, but it is not the fundamental reason, the fundamental reason is that the capital is depleted of money and grain, and for so many years, the food supply in the capital has been insufficient, and it all depends on the support of Jiangnan Caoyun."

Now the world is in turmoil, the grain of Tongji Canal can not be transported to the capital, just look at the high price of grain in the capital, you know that the capital can no longer support, I told him last year, if the transportation is cut off, then relying on a few large granaries can only support a year, but the battle of Goryeo and consumed most of the grain, so even half a year can not be supported, he knows in his heart that only by going to Jiangdu can he get a stable supply of money and grain. ”

Pei Ju meant that the Sui Dynasty was forced to flee to Jiangdu because the Sui Dynasty was going bankrupt economically, which may be one of the reasons.

Yang Yuanqing smiled again: "No matter what the reason is, the Holy Lord's escape to Jiangdu will only further weaken his ability to control the world, at least the Guanlong nobles he can't control, the ambitions among the Guanlong nobles will inevitably rise up again, and the situation of hegemony in the world will be formed." ”

Pei Ju nodded silently, "Maybe!" He was too conceited. He thought he could control everything in the world, and he wanted to do it in a year, he despised the peasant rebellion, thinking that as long as the Sui officials did not rebel and the nobles did not rebel, it would become the climate, but the peasant rebellion swept the world. A general trend of rebellion was formed. At this time, many ambitious people rose up with the trend, so that the world was in chaos. He finally found that he couldn't control it, so he chose to escape. ”

"Then what is Grandpa going to do? Do you want to go to Jiangdu with him? ”

Pei Ju shook his head firmly, "When I left Yanmen City." I don't plan to go back, now the Sui Dynasty is no longer important to me, the family is the first. ”

Wagangzhai in East County, Wagangzhai at this time is no longer a wilderness at the junction of the four counties, there is only one signboard left in Wagangzhai, the old land of Wagangzhai is no longer used, it takes Weicheng as the center, occupies half of Dongjun, and has more than 400,000 troops. sat on the first place of the major rebel forces in the world.

The capture of Liyangcang made Wagangzhai get enough food, got rid of the food problem that has plagued Wagangzhai for several years, and more importantly, the capture of Liyangcang made Wagangzhai have undergone a qualitative change, and it is no longer a bandit and robber who robbed the countryside and robbed the merchants. Rather, it is a political force that has begun to compete for the world.

All this changed because of the arrival of Li Mi, which transformed Wagangzhai from a wild child running barefoot on the ridge to a neatly dressed and polite nobleman.

Many generals in Wagangzhai have experienced this change, and Li Mi has set up three rules, not to commit crimes, not to plunder people's property, and not to commit adultery with women. Anyone who disobeys these three articles shall be put to death.

Meantime. The capture of Liyang Cang greatly increased Li Mi's prestige in Wagangzhai, and he officially became the second person in Wagangzhai.

On this afternoon, in the hall of the meeting in Wagangzhai in Weicheng County, hundreds of generals gathered together, and an extremely important event will happen in Wagangzhai today.

The hall was noisy and lively, most of the generals were rude people, they spoke in straight voices, without concealment, their voices were like roars, Xu Shixian, the third person in Wagangzhai, sat in a corner, his brows were slightly furrowed, he didn't say a word, he was thinking about his own thoughts, there was a worry in his eyes that could not be concealed, he was worried about the decision that the leader Zhai Rang was about to make.

With the strong rise of Li Mi, Wagangzhai has appeared a mountain can not tolerate two tigers, he repeatedly persuaded Zhai Rang, either send Li Mi away, or kill Li Mi, but Zhai Rang did not listen to him, actually thought of dividing Wagangzhai into two mountains, he and Li Mi each have a mountain, so that one mountain can accommodate two tigers, this is simply stupid.

But Xu Shiyun also admitted that Li Mi brought earth-shaking changes to Wagangzhai, admired his courage and vision, dared to be the first in the world, and directly challenged the Sui Dynasty, especially Li Mi's three prohibitions made Xu Shiyun deeply agree, he believes that Li Mi is the world's hero, a person who can do great things, in comparison, Zhai Rang is much inferior.

Zhai Rang is like a small landlord who is a small rich and peaceful, for so many years, even a county town did not dare to attack, when Li Mi proposed to attack Liyangcang, Zhai Rang was frightened, if it was not for his resolute support for Li Mi, Zhai Rang would never dare to attack Liyangcang such a strategic place of the imperial court.

Although Zhai Rang disappointed Xu Shiqiang, but emotionally, Xu Shiqiang still favored Zhai Rang, Zhai Rang was much more generous than Li Mi, and there was no Li Mi's viciousness and cunning, Zhai Rang treated people with sincerity, and Li Mi treated people with envelopment, which is the biggest difference between the two.

At this time, a big shrugging hand slapped him on the shoulder, "Hey! I said Lao Xu, what is it to sit here alone in a daze, like a girl Sichun. ”

Xu Shiyun was so angry that he turned around and punched, almost knocking over the person who patted him on the shoulder, this rude person was introduced into Wagang by Shan Xiongxin, the fourth master, and was his sworn brother, named Cheng Yanjin, who was originally an officer under Zhang Xutuo, just came half a year ago, his martial arts are average, but his popularity is excellent, only half a year, he is familiar with everyone up and down, Zhai Rang especially likes him, and named him the fifth master, no one objected, Xu Shiyun also likes his righteousness and boldness, but he hates his crow mouth.

Of course, Xu Shiyun didn't really fight, this punch hit Cheng Biting Jin's shoulder socket, he was not annoyed at all, rubbed his shoulder socket and said with a smile: "I saw that you were bored and panicked, so I came to talk to you." ”

Xu Shiyun said angrily: "Who said that I was bored and panicked, I was thinking about something urgent!" You kid just interrupted me. ”

"If you think about something, say it and let my brother think about it for you."

"you, what else can you think of in your head other than a woman?"

Cheng Yanjin looked to both sides, and said with a sneer: "Are you thinking about the two tigers fighting on the mountain?" ”

Xu Shiyun glanced at him in surprise, this kid is not too muddy, he actually has a little vision, he saw Cheng Biting Jin's eyes sly and smiling, so he had a good impression of him, and said with a smile: "I heard Second Brother Shan say, you know Yang Yuanqing, or his brother." ”

"Hey! Shan Lao's crow's mouth, I don't know how to arrange me, Yang Yuanqing of course I know very well, when he lived in the inn and had no money to pay the bill, I still paid the store money and wine money for him, he was very grateful to me, and later I taught him archery"

"Wait! Wait a minute! ”

Although Xu Shixun didn't know who was paying for whom, Cheng Bitingjin's last sentence was obviously the opposite, Xu Shixun blinked and smiled: "Cheng Laohei, I think you should have no money to pay the bill at the guest house, and if you want to pay the bill, he will pay for you!" ”

"How can I repay my debts, is my old Cheng that kind of person?"

Cheng Yanjin found that he had leaked his mouth, his face turned red, scratched his head and smiled: "I'm just joking, Yang Yuanqing is my father-in-law, and I have always been grateful to him in my heart." ”

"Then why don't you go to him, but come to Wagang?"

Cheng Yanjin smiled bitterly and said: "The martial arts of my three-legged cat can't help him, and I don't like the strict military discipline of the army, and I have to order it before dawn, I prefer the brothers in Wagangzhai, who have the same smell as my old Cheng, eat meat, drink in a big bowl, I think this place is more suitable for me." ”

"But you didn't know this was for you until you came in, why didn't you take refuge in him before? Go and repay his kindness. ”

Cheng Yanjin was silent for a moment, sighed and said: "The main reason is that I am afraid that the old lady will not be able to stand the cold over there in Fengzhou, and I am not at ease if I put her elsewhere." ”

Xu Shiyun nodded, this is the respectable place of Cheng Biting Jin, he is extremely filial, in order to treat his mother, he ran all over the world with his mother on his back, and even went to Jiaozhi to find a barbarian doctor, and really cured his mother's illness.

At this moment, a bell rang, and a guard shouted: "The general has arrived!" Pushan Gong has arrived! ”

The lobby suddenly quieted down, and I saw Zhai Rang, the big boss in armor, and Li Mi, the second boss, walking in successively, although both of them were vigorous and high-spirited, but in comparison, Li Mi had a more calm and unhurried bearing.

The two of them sat down side by side on the main seat, Zhai Rang stood up, glanced at everyone and asked, "Are they all here?" ”

"Returning to the general, it's all here!"

Zhai Rang nodded, and said loudly to everyone: "Today, all the brothers are gathered together, because there is a big event to happen in our Wagangzhai, that is, now, I will announce it!" ”

The lobby was silent, Li Mi's face was expressionless, his eyes were calm, as if what was about to happen had nothing to do with him, Zhai Rang glanced at Li Mi, and slowly announced: "From today onwards, Wagangzhai will set up another Pushan public camp, and all the 150,000 brothers recruited by Liyangcang will be assigned to the Pushan public camp, and all the affairs of the Pushan public camp will be decided by General Li, he is the supreme commander of the camp, if there are brothers here who are willing to follow the Pushan public, I fully support it." ”

There was silence in the lobby, everyone knew that this was not appropriate, but no one dared to say anything, but at this time, Cheng Yanjin raised his hand.

"General Cheng, do you have anything to say?" Zhai Rang asked.

Cheng Yanjin stood up and grinned at everyone: "I think of a joke in my hometown, let me tell you about it, there is a pair of brothers in our hometown who want to divide the family, according to the rules of the hometown, the bottles and cans are divided in half, and the family is divided in half a few acres of land, but the ancestral house of the three-point land belongs to the boss, but the second child took the land and took the money, but he refused to leave, he said that this house is comfortable to live in!" I don't want to leave, if the eldest brother wants to go, I can move out! ”

Cheng Biting Jin said a joke, but no one in the lobby could laugh, Li Mi stared at Cheng Biting Jin, his eyes flashing with terrifying murderous intent!
