Zhutian: My skills are not serious

Chapter 611 Gathering in Luoyang: Everyone Here is Trash

The heroes of Wagangzhai stood on the east side of Yuwen Huaji. The first one had a round bun on his head, wore leather armor, and had two carefully trimmed mustaches under his nostrils. His eyes were small but bright, and he seemed smart, but also a bit vicious.

Sitting on the warhorse next to Li Mi was Shen Luoyan, who had not changed much from two years ago, except that her hair had been changed to a bun commonly used by women. This was no wonder, as in the TV series Shen Luoyan was not only the military advisor of Wagang Village, but also married Li Mi and became the wife of the village.

The person who is inseparable from Shen Luoyan is naturally Chen Laomou, who once deceived Shuanglong. This guy has gained a lot of weight compared to before, and his face is greasy. It can be seen that his life in Wagangzhai is much better than when he was under Dugu Ba.

He was looking at the Wagang Army, and Shen Luoyan was also looking at him with a playful smile on her lips. It was unknown what she was up to.

"The man with a knife on his back behind Li Mi's left is Li Jing, the one who was looking at Hong Fu. He is also the current garrison commander of Luoyang. Although the Wagang Army occupied the Eastern Capital, Li Mi did not dare to live in Ziwei City."

"The man on Li Jing's left who is holding two maces and has a mighty figure is Qin Qiong, the first general of the Wagangzhai who led troops to attack Luoyang."

"To the left is Wang Bodang, who uses a double-pointed soft spear. Before Shen Luoyan defected to Wagangzhai, he and Pei Renji were known as Li Mi's right-hand men. Now their status has declined a bit."

"Beyond that are Luo Shixin, Cheng Zhijie, and Xu Shiji."

"The two people on Li Jing's right are masters of the Changbai Sect, the brothers Fu Zhen and Fu Yan."

"There are also Bing Yuanzhen, Shan Xiongxin and Wei Zheng. The one holding the fishing rod is called Mo Cheng. He has 36 rods in one hand, which is very tricky and wild."

Zhu Can introduced the lineup of Wagangzhai to his new master and his women in detail. Anlong had already negotiated with him a few days ago. Based on his contribution to the Sui army last year, he would be given a position of Duke as long as he accepted the amnesty. In the north, there was the coalition of Li Mi, Li Yuan, Yu Wenzhi, Liu Wuzhou, and Liang Shidu, and in the south was the powerful Xiao Chu. If he did not join one side, it would be a matter of time before he was destroyed. So he hesitated for a few breaths and then "advanced and retreated with Brother Anlong".

"Huh? That's..."

Linglongjiao and Shafang followed his suspicious gaze and saw several knights appearing behind Li Mi's team. They walked to the front of the formation and put some distance between themselves and the people from Wagangzhai.

"Du Fuwei? Dou Jiande? Li Zitong? They are here too?"

Du Fuwei was a middle-aged man in his fifties, wearing a tall hat on his head and with a face as stern as a deathly person.

Dou Jiande was tall and mighty, with a full beard and eyes as wide as Zhang Fei's.

Compared to the two people in front, Li Zitong was much more gentle and handsome, wearing a white gown, a jade pendant hanging from his waist, and a small crown on his head. When the wind blew, his black hair and white clothes fluttered, making him look more like a young man from a scholarly family than a bully on the edge of a knife. The only flaw was that his eyes were narrow and long, making him look a little frivolous.

"Since Du Fuwei and Li Zitong fell out, the two sides have fought many times and their hatred has grown. Why did they come here together today? And Dou Jiande, aren't they afraid that Li Mi and Yu Wenhuaji will suddenly kill them?"

Chu Pingsheng said, "What's so hard to understand about this? We all know that the lips and teeth are cold. Now that Xiao and Chu are powerful, if they don't show some unity, how can they fight against the Jiangnan troops? What's more, there is the Buddhist sect to mediate, and the wanderer Ning Daoqi to be the guarantor."

"Huh? Xue Ju from the Northwest is here too?"

Just as Zhu Can was about to compliment Minister Chai, he saw a middle-aged man with dark eyes and a sickly look riding a horse up to Li Mi. He didn't know what they said, but they all laughed heartily, which slightly reduced the solemn and murderous atmosphere on the battlefield.

"Li Mi and Xue Ju, how come these two are wearing the same pants?"

"Just make friends far away and attack those near."

Chu Pingsheng looked at the leaders of these separatist forces and said, "If we count carefully, only Li Gui, who is supported by the Western Turks, and Shen Faxing, who is entrenched in Zhejiang and does not want to provoke the Xiaochu army, did not come."

Dugu Feng stroked Feixue's mane and said, "That's not right. There are Gao Kaidao and Luo Yi in the north."

Zhu Can said, "They are here already. Aren't they the two people beside Li Shimin?"

After hearing his words, Fu Junyu, Ling Longjiao and others realized that they were only paying attention to Li Mi in the east, and missed the movement in the west. There were indeed two more people in front of the Tang army. Li Shimin was greeting them. One had a broad face and a high forehead, a voice like thunder, and a bold temperament; the other wore brocade Shu clothes, a purple gold crown, and was dressed in a flashy way.

"Luo Yi is on good terms with Li Tang. As long as Li Yuan wants, the Changlin Army will push north and he will probably surrender immediately. As for when Gao Kaidao got in touch with Li Tang, I don't know."

At this time, Dugu Feng pointed at the camp where Liang Shidu and Liu Wuzhou, the two heroes of Shuofang, were and asked, "Who is that person?"

Zhu Can looked carefully and saw a middle-aged man with his back to them, riding a yellow and white warhorse, carrying two short-handled axes behind him, and his sleeves bulging with arm muscles.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be Guo Zihe who is entrenched in the Yulin area and is sandwiched between Liang Shidu and Liu Wuzhou."

Dugu Feng said, "Humph, if I were him, I would definitely take advantage of Liang Shidu and Liu Wuzhou's southward march to seize their territory."

King Garuda, who was notorious as the man-eating demon king, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

You Chuhong also shook her head, speechless at her granddaughter's naivety.

"What are you saying... am I wrong?" Chu Pingsheng said, "Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, and Guo Zihe all relied on the support of DTZ to gain a foothold in the north. In the early years, Li Yuan also colluded with them. It was not until he marched south into Guanzhong and captured Chang'an and obtained the support of Buddhism that he reduced his dependence on DTZ. For a guy like Guo Zihe, who sent his brothers to DTZ as hostages, can you expect him to ignore the intentions of DTZ and take the opportunity to seize the territory of Liang Shidu and Liu Wuzhou?"

Zhu Can said: "In fact, this guy is a two-faced person. On the one hand, he tries to please DTZ, and on the other hand, he flirts with Li Tang."

Dugu Feng found it difficult to sort out the intricate relationships between these forces with his own mind.

"Hahahaha, such a grand event, how can I be absent from Yun Shuai."

A powerful voice swept the entire venue, and a black shadow flew past in the air, like a bat with its wings spread, and it folded in the air and landed less than a hundred meters away from where Chu Pingsheng and others were parked.

Correspondingly, amid the sound of horse hooves, Yun Shuai's daughter Lian Rou, wearing a pearl headband with a strong Western style, urged the horse forward. Behind her was a carriage. As the black curtain with a white lotus pattern printed in the middle was lifted, the pot-bellied leader of the Tianlian Sect, An Long, walked out, like a balloon blown by the wind, and landed lightly. The picture looked quite awkward.

It is understandable that Anlong rides in a horse-drawn carriage. The tonnage and size of the horse are there. If an ordinary horse is pressed by him, the better ones can only walk a few steps, but the spine of the weaker ones will be broken.

Surprisingly, after the fat man landed, another person walked out of the car. He was thin, with short legs and long feet, which looked very uncoordinated. He was holding a silk handkerchief in his hand and looking at the sun above his head, which was dripping with sweat. He seemed to be more afraid of heat than ordinary people.

Zhu Can was surprised and said, "Oh, it's Li Gui."

Just now, Minister Chai said that he was missing. Who would have thought that this guy is so annoying.

It can be seen that Li Mi, Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou and others standing opposite were also surprised by Li Gui's arrival.

Shen Luoyan, the military advisor of Wagangzhai, stepped forward a dozen steps, and asked loudly, "Is this person Li Gui from Xiliang?"

This is a very impolite question.

They immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, Guo Zihe, Luo Yi, Li Shimin, Yu Wenzhi and others all looked at them.

"Hmph." Li Gui was also the number one overlord in the northwest, and he proclaimed himself the Emperor of Daliang. How could he be happy to be addressed like that by a woman?

Shen Luoyan continued, "Judging from your position, Xiliang Kingdom is going to stand together with Xiao Chu?"

Li Gui took a look at the Jiangbei heroes who were in high spirits on the opposite side, then looked at Chu Pingsheng who was surrounded by a group of beautiful women, and showed hesitation on his face.

At this time, Yun Shuai laughed and said, "Such a grand event, I, a Western figure, came to take a look and see the style of the heroes of the Central Plains, but I don't want to be involved in the dispute. Military Advisor Shen does not need to test it again."

Everyone knows that the Western Turks are behind Li Gui, and Yun Shuai is the national teacher of the Western Turks. His words are roughly equivalent to Li Gui's answer.

Shen Luoyan continued to push his horse forward: "Watching the battle? I think if the evil way prevails in the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiliang Kingdom and Western Turkic will have to bet on it."

Li Gui's face looked even worse, but Yun Shuai just smiled and didn't respond.

Shen Luoyan looked at Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, and Guo Zihe who had taken refuge in DTZ, shook his head and sighed: "Poor, poor..."

Liang Shidu said angrily: "Shen Luoyan, who do you say is pitiful?"

"Of course I'm saying you're pitiful." She straightened her horse and looked at Minister Chai who was swallowing the purple grapes that Rong Jiaojiao handed to him as if no one was around. She said, "Last year, when the Sui army marched south, many people thought it was not even a gamble, but a road to death. But who would have thought that with the help of Minister Chai, Xiao Meiniang changed her mind and used the Lingnan Song family as a fulcrum to leverage the entire Jiangnan region. In just a few months, she took over half of the country."

She looked at the man opposite her deeply for a few times and then said, "That day when Minister Chai conquered Cangwu, I persuaded Lord Mi to invite Emperor Huangtai to stay in Xingyang for a while, thinking that even if the Empress Dowager led her troops back north, Minister Chai would not repeat the Cangwu tragedy in Xingyang. But I didn't expect that... the descendants of the Yang family in Luoyang, the eastern capital, were all burdens. Only if we conquered Luoyang and persuaded Emperor Huangtai to surrender, she would have enough reason to abandon the ruined Yang Sui, step out from behind the curtain, and ascend the throne in the birthplace of the Xiao family, becoming a great empress. If I'm not mistaken, all this is the masterpiece of Minister Chai, right?"

Chu Pingsheng smiled without comment.

"It is said that Song Que's second brother Song Zhi is the reincarnation of Sleeping Dragon. Compared with Minister Chai, he is just a name in vain." Shen Luoyan clasped his fists and said, "Such strategic and political vision, Luoyan admires it."

There is no doubt that this is praise and compliment, but Dugu Feng frowned as she listened to it, and frequently looked back at her fiancé, with a sense of crisis in her heart.

The smile on Chu Pingsheng's lips became more and more intense. "Not bad, not bad. Through exaggeration and analysis, I have mobilized the emotions of Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, Yu Wenhuaji and others in a few words. They regard me as a serious threat and want to get rid of me as soon as possible. Although in my eyes, they are just a bunch of chickens and dogs with their fighting power, but at least we can build consensus, unify our positions, and unite around the Wagangzhai headed by Li Mi."

A clay chicken and a clay dog?

He said the heroes of Jiangbei are just chickens and dogs?
Du Fuwei, Liang Shidu, Li Zitong and others all glared at him, filled with resentment.

Yu Wenshang, the most skilled fighter among the four great clans, had a fierce look in his eyes.

Seeing how arrogant he was, Shen Luoyan's smile became even wider.
