Without Feng Zhang's recourse, Li Wuchang and others went out of Huai'an all the way unhindered, and after arriving at Chungling, they met the personnel of the Intelligence Bureau, crossed the shortcut, and returned to the main city of Xiangyang smoothly.

Shopkeeper Cang, Nie Jin, Wei Xin and others had already arrived, and they were overjoyed when they saw Li Wuchang and others coming back.

The rescue operation is finally over.

It's quite satisfying.

Due to the tendency of Nie Jin and the Tianluo Gang to worsen their injuries, Li Wuchang pondered for a while, and still returned to Fangling in one go, because the main city of Xiangyang was still relatively simple in all aspects, and the medicinal materials were not in order.

The news that the army had rescued Nie Jin soon spread.

In order to arouse the hatred of all parties for the French Shuai Army, Feng Zhang summarized what happened in Yingchuan in detail, slightly increased or decreased, and specially sent people to various states to spread it and spread it to the entire Central Plains.

Lu Xifa took advantage of the fact that a large number of good players from all parties gathered in Yingchuan to transfer all the first-class masters under the command of the French Shuai Army to Yingchuan, first pretending to be Nanyang Gang Cheng Yiming, and colluding with Lin Wu to attack Bai Dao, some of them stirred up fire everywhere under the pseudonym Cao Mengde, and then pretended to be ordinary people in the rivers and lakes to provoke Bai Dao and the Khitan people to fight to the death.

During this period, Lu Xifa's troops secretly found Nie Jin and transferred him away, and Wei Xin personally led the escort team to Chungling to respond.

Now that Nie Jin has been detained by the Fa Shuai Army, he has entered the sphere of influence of the Fa Shuai Army, and the Earth Demon Sword and all kinds of exercises will be returned to the Fa Shuai Army sooner or later.

As soon as the news spread, all sides exploded.

The masters of the Bai Dao gang were furious, slapping the table and scolding, asking Su Han to gather good hands to kill Xiangyang, and some even suggested forming an alliance with Dongjiang, and they must suppress the arrogance of the French commander army in advance, otherwise it will become a big trouble.

The Khitans were not very angry, Ye Ercong and Ye Lufeng only mentioned their interest in Li Wuchang and Fa Shuaijun, and after the Hanshui Gang introduced it in detail, Ye Lufeng carved the three words "Li Wuchang" with a short knife, his eyes were playful and excited.

The Red Dragon Society was a little happy, because the Nanyang Gang had already been selected, and the other forces hated the Fa Shuai Army, which was really something that Lu Shilong's and Lu Shikai's brothers were happy to see.

The Dongjiang faction's thoughts were similar to those of the Red Dragon Society, and while they were happy, they also sent a small team to Yuzhou to add another fire, in an attempt to encourage some remnants of the Tianluo Gang that had dispersed earlier. It's a very simple instigation: The gang leader was detained by the French Army, and you still don't go to Fangling to make trouble?

It is not known whether the remnants of the Tianluo Gang scattered all over Yuzhou will go to Fangling to make trouble, but people from all walks of life have a little idea, and they are wondering in their hearts: Why let the Fa Shuai Army monopolize Nie Jin's treasure sword and exercises? If there is a big force attacking the Fa Shuai Army, then do we have to get involved?

After Zuo Qian heard this, he asked a little uncertainly: "You said that you will see it, will Nie Gang Master really be detained by Li Wuchang?"

This question is difficult to answer, because it is all rumors, although it is rumored, but after all, I have not seen it with my own eyes.

Li Shengze pondered for a moment and said seriously: "Chief, I don't think it's better to make a judgment too early. We can send someone to negotiate with the French Shuai Army first, if the Nie Gang Leader is really detained by them, we can pay a big price in exchange for the Nie Gang Leader and his subordinates, and the attitude can be a little tougher. At the moment, although the French Shuai Army is worry-free for the time being, they should not dare to completely fall out with us......"

This proposal is good, Zuo Qian nodded and agreed; "Then do as you say!"

Of course, he was looking forward to being able to exchange Nie Jin peacefully, firstly because Nie Jin was his personal friend, and secondly, because Nie Jin was not only strong in martial arts, but also extraordinary in means, if he could join the Baling Army, the Baling Army would naturally rise.

I think so, but Zuo Qian doesn't know the bottom in his heart, what he can produce is nothing more than gold.

If what happened in Yingchuan was really as intense as the rumors, then Li Wuchang must have spent a lot of effort and effort, how could he let Nie Jin go if he didn't get any benefits?

As we all know, there are not many masters of making knives in the army of the marshal. Li Wuchang and Jiang Minglun took the lead, and there were Zhou Fang, Guo Laogui, Han Dazhi, etc., plus many masters of the Guards Legion. Even Xu Minglong and Wei Xin were good at using knives in their early years, and they only switched to swords in recent years.

Also, there is no shortage of gold in the French army.

If Li Wuchang is not willing to let go, can he still rob him?

Seeing Zuo Qian's concern, Old Strategist Nie immediately patted his chest and said, "Chief, why don't I go there myself?" When Li Wuchang got married, I drank a few drinks with him, and it should be a little thin......

Zuo Qian thought for a moment and said, "It's okay! If Li Wuchang's attitude is very tough, then don't be too forceful first, just tell him tactfully not to hurt the life of the Nie gang leader, this should be okay." ”

They discussed for a long time, but they didn't know that Nie Jin was not only not detained by Li Wuchang, but also became Li Wuchang's teacher.

Luoyang City is even more lively.

When Feng Zhang reported to Lu Yuanke, Lu Yuanyu, Feng Zhongyi and others, of course, he told the matter as it was, without adding any oil and vinegar, just mixed with some reasonable guesses.

"Nie Jin is actually a brother to Wei Xin of the Fa Shuai Army?" Feng Zhongyi was surprised.

"Indeed!"

Feng Zhang nodded, with regret on his face: "Nie Bing said it himself." Li Wuchang, Jiang Minglun, and Xu Minglong personally went out to explain the problem, if it weren't for that layer of relationship, why would Li Wuchang take that risk? If he was accidentally planted in Yingchuan, the French marshal's army would have taken off a few layers of skin. ”

Lu Yuanke sighed slowly: "Even if Li Wuchang, Jiang Minglun, and Xu Minglong go out in person, plus some miscellaneous masters, their overall strength in Yingchuan is still not as good as the imperial court, Khitan and Bai Dao, and in the end, they actually let the French army take advantage of it, heh!"

Feng Zhang immediately pleaded guilty: "Lord Wang, the subordinates are really careless, they didn't think about the French Shuai Army at all, and thought it was Zuo Qian or the Dongjiang faction who were doing ghosts, I thought that both parties were very busy at the moment, so I ......"

"I don't blame you!"

Lu Yuanke waved his hand and said: "You can decisively seize the opportunity to be the main force, and you have done quite well to twist so many Khitans, Hanshui Gang and Baidao masters, and reduce the pressure on Luoyang and Hedong." ”

Feng Zhang said respectfully: "Thank you for the praise!"

Then he smiled bitterly, and said a little helplessly: "The timing is indeed a good time, but it was created by Li Wuchang single-handedly, in a sense, I became a knife in his hand, buying time and conditions for him to transfer Nie Jin." If the main force has been wandering in the south, how can Nie Jin and his party have a chance to rush to the sideline? Even if they rush hard, I will soon rush up, alas......"

Lu Yuanke looked at Lu Yuanzhi and asked, "Yuanzhi, when you were in Chang'an City, you should have some contact with Li Wuchang, right?"

The implication is obvious.

This is to double down on the understanding of Li Wuchang.

Lu Yuanzhi smiled bitterly: "The contact is some contact, but I don't know much about his interior." At that time, he looked like a stunned man on the outside, with rough nerves, and his personality was not strong at all, so it stands to reason that he was reluctant to be the leader of a party.

If he insisted on scheming, he concealed his martial arts at that time and deceived almost everyone, including the Li family. After it broke out, I didn't think too much about it, I just thought it was a big family's means of self-preservation.

As for other aspects, well, he has a set of rich people, and everyone knows a little bit about this. Also, he likes to get some strange things, drinks, food, medicines, hunting tools, and building sharp weapons. In addition, everyone knows the weapons of the French Shuai Army, I dare to pack a ticket, not only to pay attention to the craftsman, he is the most critical leader......"
