Chapter 401 The Eccentric Zhang Xianzhong
Tongqianguan was still as calm as ever, and Li Chaomeng continued: "Isn't he just Zhang Xianzhong? He was really daring to attack our Lantian. He really wanted to go blind. In fact, Shi Dalei didn't need to come, as long as the county Your Honor brings those five hundred new-style cannons over, and the two of us can take care of Zhang Xianzhong."

Li Dezhen heard this and said: "Uncle Mengzi, don't be careless. Zhang Xianzhong can be a gangster, and the strength under his hands is not small. According to the information given to us by the Secret Service, Zhang Xianzhong brought his entire family to Tongqianguan this time. It is estimated that there can be 10,000+ people, 10,000+, that is, 10,000+ pigs for us to kill, we have to kill for a while, besides, Zhang Xianzhong also has elites in his hands, and the strength is also very strong. The county lord asked Shi Dalei to come just in case one."

Li Chaomeng heard this and said: "That's right, just come, I haven't seen Da Lei for a long time, so I just took this opportunity to catch up.

As Li Chaomeng was speaking, he heard footsteps outside, and the footsteps were a little hurried, and at the same time he heard someone shouting: "Report, urgent military situation."

As he spoke, he saw a scout running in quickly from outside and said, "Report to the division commander, there is an urgent military situation."

Li Dezhen was stunned and said, "Tell me, what is the military situation?"

At this time the scout said: "Master, just now the scouts reported that Zhang Xianzhong's army has arrived in Zhuxi County. Li Dingguo has already sent people to Zhuxi County to meet Zhang Xianzhong. I think the army will come to the city tomorrow."

After hearing this, Li Dezhen said, "Bring the military map."

"Yes."

Li Dezhen's adjutant immediately took out the military map. Li Dezhen looked at the military map and said: "Zhang Xianzhong arrived in Zhuxi County and used Zhuxi County as his base. If he goes in, he can attack our Tongqian Pass, and if he goes back, he can retreat to Zhushan for refuge. He is really good at picking places." what."

Li Chaomeng glanced at the map and said, "Do you need me to send someone to sneak attack, maybe I can capture that bastard Zhang Xianzhong alive."

Li Dezhen shook his head and said: "Don't worry, the county lord gave us an order to stick to the Tongqian Pass. With the city pass, we can guarantee that the enemy will not break through the pass. Next, we just need to wait patiently. As long as Shi Dalei comes and the artillery is in place for the reinforcements and Lantian's five hundred new artillery pieces, we can counterattack Zhang Xianzhong and let him know that Lantian is not something he should provoke."

After hearing this, Li Chaomeng said, "I want to beat him up right now."

"Be patient, be patient."

Li Dezhen patted Li Chaomeng's shoulder and said to the adjutant: "Give the county lord a power, saying that Zhang Xianzhong's troops have arrived in Zhuxi County, and they may attack the city tomorrow, please give instructions to the county lord."

"Yes."

The adjutant saluted, then left, and went to send a telegram to Lantian.

Zhuxi County.

Zhang Xianzhong was sitting on the county magistrate's lobby, and standing below were Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu, and Zhang Xianzhong's confidant Xu Yixian. He is an important adviser, and this person is resourceful and resourceful. Since Zhuge Liang is alive, some people call him Sai Zhuge.

At this time, Zhang Xianzhong was sitting on the magistrate's chair to rest. As for the original magistrate of Zhuxi County, he had already run away. Before Zhang Xianzhong's 10,000+ army came, the magistrate of Zhuxi County fled the city with his family.

The magistrate of Zhuxi thought very clearly. Although Zhang Xianzhong now claims to have been recruited, if he is unhappy and the magistrate of Zhuxi kills him, then he will be killed. It is impossible for the court to make things difficult for a mere county magistrate. Zhang Xianzhong, after all, he is the magistrate of Zhuxi County, not the magistrate of Lantian County.

Lantian County Magistrate Li Chaosheng is now a model for all county magistrates in the world. He is privately called the first county magistrate by many people, and he can be regarded as an appealing banner in the county magistrate circle.

Being the magistrate of Li Chaosheng can be regarded as unprecedented.

Zhang Xianzhong sat on the main seat and said, "When will the second child come?"

After hearing this, Xu Yixian said: "Report to the Eighth King that the Second General has arrived in Zhuxi County and should be there soon."

After Zhang Xianzhong heard this, he glanced at Xu Yixian and said, "Old Xu, we have just been appeased by the imperial court, how can we still call ourselves the Eight Great Kings, you should call me Guerrilla General."

Xu Yixian heard this and said: "Yes, yes, but the king will always be the Eight Great Kings in my heart. It's okay for this guerrilla general to call him in front of outsiders. They are all from his own family, so it's better to call him the king."

Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this, the words touched his heart, this Zhao'an is an expedient measure, now Xu Yixian doesn't forget that it's a good thing, so he said: "Okay, then listen Old Xu, if there are outsiders, you can call me Guerrilla General, and when there is no one, just use the old name."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhang Xianzhong nodded in satisfaction, and at this moment he heard footsteps outside the big tent, followed by seeing Li Dingguo walking in with his deputy Wang Jiadong, as soon as he entered the big tent, Li Dingguo saw Sun Kewang and Liu Wenxiu, The two were dressed in military uniforms at this time, obviously they were reinstated by Zhang Xianzhong, and once again had the right to lead the army.

Li Dingguo frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied. The two not only lost a general Zhao Ding and the fourth Ai Nengqi in the defeat, but also lost an army of nearly 5000 people. The head is light, but the adoptive father held it up high and put it down lightly. He just closed the two for a few days, and now they are activated again, and the official is restored to his original post. How can this convince the public?
"Dingguo has met his adoptive father."

"I will see the king at the end."

But no matter how dissatisfied he was, Li Dingguo still respectfully saluted with fists in his arms, and Wang Jiadong followed suit. Zhang Xianzhong saw Li Dingguo smiling all over his face: "Hahaha...my son is back, hurry up, show me the seat, and fight for days , My son is very miserable."

Zhang Xianzhong smiled brightly, and he had an affinity. In fact, he was able to attract a large number of people. People who became the leaders of a party had their own personal charm. If it was just cruel and bloodthirsty, it would be impossible to gather so many people to follow him. Mixed.

Li Dingguo cupped his fists: "Thank you foster father."

After Li Dingguo finished speaking, he sat on Zhang Xianzhong's right hand with his drooping hand. Wang Jiadong sat next to Li Dingguo. Liu Wenxiu frowned slightly when he saw Wang Jiadong's seat and said, "General Wang, you are taking the place of my fourth brother. General Wang, please move to the next seat and sit down."

Liu Wenxiu was the first to attack, and Li Dingguo squinted at Liu Wenxiu and said: "The fourth brother was folded into Lan Tian's hands because of some people's stupidity and incompetence. This seat is also vacant. Why can't my brother sit?"

"Second, who are you talking about?"

Sun Kewang shouted angrily when he heard the words.

Li Dingguo laughed and said, "Brother, don't get excited, whoever I say knows who knows."

"Li Dingguo."

Sun Kewang was furious when he heard the words, and was about to stand up while slapping the table. Li Dingguo glared at Sun Kewang and said, "Oh, brother, do you want to teach my younger brother martial arts?"

Sun Kewang gritted his teeth when he heard the words. If he could beat Li Dingguo, he would have to fight this bastard with a knife at this time. Li Dingguo choked, it's really hard to get off a tiger.

"enough."

Just when Sun Kewang was completely at a disadvantage, Zhang Xianzhong began to take sides, and he glared and shouted angrily: "Every day we meet and quarrel, do you still take me as a father-in-law seriously?"

"Dingguo, I hope he is your elder brother, how can you contradict him so rudely?"

"And you, Kewang, Dingguo didn't mention you by name, why are you so anxious to be seated? And even if you say a few words about you, what's the matter? Wasn't it you who lost the battle?"

After Zhang Xianzhong finished speaking, Sun Kewang lowered his head and did not speak. At this time, Zhang Xianzhong looked at Liu Wenxiu and said, "There is also the third child, Jiadong is Dingguo's brother, and he is also half of my godson. He is sitting in that position." Any questions?"

"No, no problem."

Liu Wenxiu lowered his head and said, Zhang Xianzhong looked at Liu Wenxiu at this time and said, "It's okay, I don't need to apologize to Jiadong."

"Yes, sorry."

Under Zhang Xianzhong's lustful power, he obediently apologized to Wang Jiadong, and Wang Jiadong immediately said with a harmless look: "It's okay, it's okay, I was sitting in the wrong seat."

Li Dingguo glanced at Wang Jiadong at this time, and Wang Jiadong gave Li Dingguo a look. The tacit understanding between the two instantly let them know that Zhang Xianzhong's move must have deep meaning, so be careful not to fall into the ditch.

Thinking of Li Dingguo sitting down calmly, and Wang Jiadong also sitting down, Zhang Xianzhong said: "Well, let's talk about something serious, we have been ordered by the imperial court to be a regular army."

After hearing this, Li Dingguo frowned slightly, the court?

He didn't have the slightest liking for the Ming Dynasty, but he saw with his own eyes that the government confiscated the last sack of food from their family, and his father argued with the officials, and then was beaten up by the officials, and the root cause of the disease fell, and then the family had no food for the winter. In winter, everyone starved to death, and he was the only one left to go out to look for food. Zhang Xianzhong found out and brought him back.

Today Zhang Xianzhong was ordered to be safe by the imperial court. Is Li Dingguo also an officer from now on?Li Dingguo has a sense of shame that he recognizes a thief as his father.

Zhang Xianzhong glanced at Li Dingguo, and then said: "There are no outsiders here, let me tell you the truth, our Zhao'an is fake, I dug Chongzhen's ancestral grave, how could Chongzhen not punish me, I pretended to be Zhao'an, The purpose is to seize Lantian County. Lantian is rich, with strong soldiers and horses, and a large population. We have won Lantian County, and we will have a great foundation. But Lantian is not easy to deal with, so I asked the court to order Li Chaosheng to give us Lantian. We just need to enter If we leave Lantian, then the good days will come."

After hearing this, Li Dingguo looked at Zhang Xianzhong and said, "Father, you have a good idea, but will Li Chaosheng give up Lantian to us?"

Zhang Xianzhong said: "The imperial court has decreed that if he refuses to give in, he must give in. If he refuses to give in, it will be treason, and the imperial court will put down the rebellion. At that time, we will stand by and watch them dog-eat-dog. If there is a chance, we will make a comeback and give Chongzhen It's a surprise for my son, it won't do any harm to us."

"And if Li Chaosheng really gave up Lantian, hehehe, then we will be out of luck. With the affluent Lantian County as our foundation, we will have a base whether we are facing Ming Dynasty or attacking Sichuan. We don't have to As it is now, wandering around like a stray dog."

After hearing this, Li Dingguo said: "Father, since we want to watch from the sidelines, why do you want Chen Bing to pass the copper coin?"

After Zhang Xianzhong heard this, he said: "Hmph, Dingguo, do you think we are the only ones who want to make good plans? In fact, the imperial court is also plotting against us, and they also want us to fight with Lantian. He wants to reap the benefits of the fisherman. I am now The purpose of dispatching troops to Zhuxi County is to give the imperial court a false impression that I am ready to fight Lantian to the death."

"Seeing my attitude, the imperial court will definitely issue a heavy order to Lantian, ordering Li Chaosheng to leave Lantian and give us the place, so that the imperial court is more likely to fight Li Chaosheng first."

"If we don't come, the imperial court will have to face the pressure from Lantian alone, and it is likely to be anticlimactic. This is not in our interests, so we must make one. If Lantian doesn't give up his position, we will fight against Lantian. The illusion, by the way, also puts some pressure on Li Chaosheng, after all, what he has to face now is the pincer attack of the imperial court and our two forces, and he, Li Chaosheng, has suffered."

After hearing this, Li Dingguo still felt that something was wrong. Li Dingguo said: "Father, if you, Chen Bingzhuxi County, angered Lantian, what would Lantian do if he asked us desperately? With the elite of Lantian's troops and the excellent firearms, we are very happy. It's hard to beat Lantian."

Zhang Xianzhong laughed when he heard the words: "The imperial court has already started to attack Lan Tian. At this time, Lan Tian doesn't want to deal with the imperial army. Instead, he looks for us desperately. He Li Chaosheng is crazy. You must know Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, and Lu Xiangsheng. The army is right in front of Lantian's house, what they should consider most now is how to deal with them, not us, hahaha..."

"Besides, we only pretended to attack. We didn't take the initiative to attack outside the Chen Bing Tongqian Pass. If we didn't attack, we wouldn't provoke them, but they were crazy and desperate for us. This is unreasonable, unless Li Chaosheng is crazy."

Zhang Xianzhong said confidently, after all, in Zhang Xianzhong's view, his threat is definitely not as good as those three high-ranking officials in northern Shaanxi, who even defeated Gao Yingxiang. The difference is very far.

Therefore, Zhang Xianzhong was replaced by Li Chaosheng. If Li Chaosheng would give priority to dealing with the three of Hong Chengchou, not Zhang Xianzhong.

Li Dingguo always felt that something was wrong when he heard Zhang Xianzhong's words, but he didn't find it wrong. Zhang Xianzhong looked at Li Dingguo at this moment and said: "By the way, Dingguo, I have to tell you something. Although your elder brother made a mistake, but now When it’s time to employ people, let your eldest brother continue to lead the army and make atonement for his crimes.”

Li Dingguo didn't say a word after hearing this. This is too biased, and it's even unfair. Sun Kewang made such a big mistake, and he just locked him up for a few days and then it's over?But Li Dingguo can't say anything more, because his adoptive father arranged it, he has to endure it if he is not convinced.

Sun Kewang glanced at Li Dingguo at this moment, followed by a slight upturn of his mouth, his eyes were full of sarcasm, so what if you can fight, it's because you can't do anything about me, hehe...
