C118 New year's eve 3
Chen Cang County, this place was also full of snow!
Li Gang had already been in this place for more than two months, and of course, he wasn't the only one who had come. These dozen or so Home Breaker s were mainly there to monitor Li Gang. No matter what Li Gang did here, they would report it to Zhe Keqiu! Although Li Gang had been chased out by Zhe Keqiu, Zhe Keqiu was still worried, and continued to watch him closely!
Tonight was New Year's Eve, so Li Gang summoned all of the Home Breaker's soldiers to his room!
He prepared fine wine and dishes and spent New Year's Eve with these soldiers of the Home Breaker.
These Home Breaker soldiers came all the way from Middle Han Area to Chen Cang County, but they had never put Li Gang in their eyes! They had swords and spears in their hands, how could they think of a scholar who was weak like a chicken?
From nightfall until now, Home Breaker Soldiers had been drunk on the table one after another, and gradually everyone had been drunk on the table!
Li Gang drank too much too, his face flushed red!
He opened the door and walked out. Suddenly, he stuffed his fingers into his mouth and throat. He could not take it anymore. He lay on the ground and vomited! The wine that was originally in his stomach was constantly being spat out!
After a long while, he finally stopped. He squatted on the ground and gasped for air!
However, his originally drowsy state due to the alcohol had become clear!
"Lord Li!" At that moment, a soft cry sounded out from beside him!
"You're finally here!" Li Gang raised his head, his pale face revealing a trace of a smile!
In front of him stood a tall and sturdy man. This man's entire face was filled with whiskers, it was actually Wang De, who went to the Jingyuan City before!
It turned out that when Li Gang went out at noon and saw Wang De in the county city, he guessed that Wang De would come find him at night and used a trick to get all the Home Breaker Soldiers drunk before he fell to the ground.
"Lord Li knew I would come?" Wang De said in shock.
"I saw you this morning! Those people are lying in the house right now! " Li Gang pointed to the house and said.
Wang De nodded, he walked into the house with large strides, he added a finger to the bodies of all the Home Breaker Soldiers s, after confirming that everyone had their acupoints opened, he became at ease!
"Master Li, let's find a quiet room to talk! Other than me, there are also other friends who have come! " Wang De said.
"Other friends?" Li Gang was startled!
"Lord Li, long time no see!" At that moment, a laugh was heard from a distance. A young man dressed like a scholar had appeared in the courtyard!
"Wang Shu?!" Li Gang uttered in disbelief!
Other than Wang Shu, two more people walked in from outside. These two were tall and sturdy, one look was enough to tell that they were warriors!
"Jing Road Zhao Zhe greets Master Li!" One of the 30 some year old middle-aged martial artists said while cupping his hands.
"Zhao Zhe?" Li Gang was shocked again!
The Jing Road was the and the Deputy Envoy was Zhao Zhe! This Zhao Zhe, who was only second to Curved End in command, had actually come to Chen Cang County! If Li Gang was not shocked, that would be impossible!
"Jing Road Liu Qi greets Master Li!" The slightly younger warrior smiled and also cupped his hands together.
"Liu Qi!" Li Gang was once again shocked!
Just like Zhe Keqiu, Yao Gu and the others, Liu Qi also came from a general class family! When Song Huizong was in power, he was recommended by Gao Dazhi to enter the Imperial Guards! After that, Liu Qi followed the teacher to the Jingyuan Army. After the teacher left, Liu Qi followed the Curved End! Now, Curved End was number one, Zhao Zhe was number two, and Liu Qi was number three!
Historically, after the Curved End was killed by Zhang Jun, Liu Qi took over the position of Curved End, becoming the envoy of the Jing Road. One of them said that Liu Qi had replaced Liu Guangshi as the Law, and that Liu Qi was one of the four generals of the Southern Song Dynasty! As for Zhao Zhe, after the death of the Curved End, he became a spy for the Tsinghua Army!
It could be said that, currently, other than the Curved End, all the other important figures of the Jingyuan Army had actually come to Chen Cang County.
"Quick, quick!" Let's talk in the house over there! " After a moment, Li Gang reacted, and said anxiously.
At this moment, as he walked forward, he secretly thought about it. He did not understand why the generals of the Jingyuan Army would come to Chen Cang County! Could it be that Jingyuan Army's attitude had changed? Could it be that they decided to support the Emperor?
Thinking about this possibility, Li Gang was ecstatic! The Jingyuan Army was now only second to the Home Breaker in terms of power and power, with a total of a hundred thousand troops. If the Jingyuan Army was willing to help, then eliminating Zhe Keqiu might not be impossible!
Not long after, they arrived at a small room! Li Gang lit the fire, and everyone sat down!
"I've heard of the famous generals for a long time, I never expected to see them here!" After everyone sat down, Li Gang said.
"Lord Li is renowned throughout the world, and the entire world admires him! In front of Lord Li, we are nothing! " Wang Shu laughed.
"Why have all of you come to see me?" Li Gang said.
"Naturally, it is to save His Majesty! To serve His Majesty! Zhe Keqiu was ambitious, he had control over the political affairs of the country, and the soldiers of the world were not convinced! We have decided to help His Majesty, the Qing Monarch's side, so that His Majesty can truly take control of the imperial government! " Wang Shu said.
"Is this the intention of the Curved End?" Li Gang said in excitement.
"General Qu doesn't have such a plan! If General Qu had such a plan, he would have agreed to it when we were at Middle Han Area! " Wang Shu laughed.
"Then... "Is this what you mean by that?" Li Gang said in disbelief.
"That's right!" General Qu had no ambition, and only wanted to stay in Jingyuan City, only wanted to protect Jingyuan Army which had a hundred thousand people! His Majesty was being bullied by Zhe Keqiu in the Hanzhong City, but he actually ignored everything else! We can't bear to watch this any longer, so we must help His Majesty! " Zhao Zhe stood out and said.
"We've already discussed this, that's why we're here to contact Lord Li!" Liu Qi said.
"Does General Qu know about this?" Li Gang said.
"General Qu doesn't know! We came here secretly to see you, Sir Li! " Wang Shu said.
"The General Qu is the envoy of the Jing Road, the one in charge of the army! If he does not know about this, will he agree to allocate a large army in the future? " Li Gang said.
"There is no need for him to agree, we can also deploy the army! I, Zhao Zhe, am after all, the Jing Road's mediator, and I, Liu Qi, am an emissary of the Jing Road. With Wang Shu here, the three of us will be able to mobilize the entire army! " Zhao Zhe laughed.
"I heard that the Curved End is extremely prestigious in the Jingyuan Army. Without him, how many troops would you guys have been able to mobilize?" Li Gang said.
"Don't worry about this Lord Li, his prestige is very high, but we are using the name of the Qing Jun side to move the army, we have already convinced countless low level officers! We can mobilize at least fifty thousand troops right now! " Wang Shu said.
"Fifty thousand strong army, that is half of Jingyuan Army! Jingyuan Army is the strongest army in the northwest, so these fifty thousand soldiers are already quite a lot! Li Gang nodded.
"We have to discuss the matter with the Qing Monarch first! That traitor Zhe Keqiu has over a hundred thousand troops at his disposal. Furthermore, he has occupied the Dazhang Pass. If we attack Dazhang Pass forcefully, I'm afraid Zhe Keqiu will bring His Majesty to Sichuan! From Middle Han Area to Sichuan, there are many passes. The path of Shu is extremely difficult, and at that time, it will be even more difficult to save His Majesty! " Wang Shu said.
"We should discuss this properly! Apart from you guys, His Majesty's personal guards are currently in Henan and Henan provinces. They are currently recruiting for the army. I wonder how many soldiers and horses they have under their command. In addition, Li Ruoshui, Wu Jie and the rest of the people in Sichuan, they also had troops under their command! With our combined efforts, as long as we do the right thing, we should be able to clear the king's side! With regards to the Dazhang Pass, it would indeed be difficult to enter without being noticed. Right now, we need an opportunity … " Li Gang thought.
Amongst the few of them, Li Gang was the number one general of the Southern Crossing, Wang Shu was the number one strategist under the Curved End, Liu Qi was one of the golden generals resistance afterwards, and as for Zhao Zhe, he was also a great general who had been in the Western Army for many years!
For the entire night, they discussed non-stop. The crux of the problem was still how to quietly take down the Dazhang Pass, and how to prevent Zhe Keqiu from bringing the emperor to Sichuan! If they could solve this problem, they could make a move at any time!
When the sky lit up, Wang Shu, Wang De, Zhao Zhe, Liu Qi and the rest walked out of Li Gang's room!
They had already agreed to keep in touch from now on! In addition, Wang Shu and the rest continued to mobilize the army, gathering more of the lower class generals, making them loyal to the emperor! Of course, Li Gang would naturally grant these people an official title on Zhao Chen's behalf! If they did not have benefits, why would they betray the Curved End and help Zhao Chen?
The sky was getting brighter, and it was snowing heavily!
Li Gang stood there, feeling extremely carefree in his heart! Until now, he had finally found an opportunity to save His Majesty! With the help of fifty thousand Jingyuan Army s, he already possessed sufficient power!
"Originally, I thought that I would have to endure for a long time, and that it might take me a few years or even ten years to find an opportunity to clear my Monarch's side! But since the Jingyuan Army has sided with His Majesty, then we don't need to be patient anymore! As long as there's an opportunity, as long as there's an opportunity, we'll be able to kill Zhe Keqiu! However, there were still a lot of things to consider! If Zhe Keqiu died, would Jingyuan Army's people be the other Zhe Keqiu after they entered the Middle Han Area? "
"It shouldn't be! If Curved End was involved in this matter, I would still be worried, but Curved End is not involved in this matter right now! Zhao Zhe and Liu Qi were both generals of the Jingyuan Army, but their statuses were similar! Wang Shu is the strategist of the Curved End, and not a true general … "
"However, I still have to be wary! I need to contact Li Ruoshui, Wu Jie and the others. When the time comes, they should also quickly take over the important points at Shu Guan, separating Zhe Keqiu and Zhe Yanzhi! After that, Wu Jie should also enter the Middle Han Area, so that he can form a balance with the Jingyuan Army! "
But no matter what, Li Gang felt that he had finally seen hope! The snow was falling on his face. His face should have been ice-cold, but now his face was red from excitement. It was scorching!
