The marriage of Li Chaosheng, the magistrate of Lantian County, caused a stir in the world. This is the treatment of a big shot. If his every move could not affect the world, who would be talked about by the world because of a marriage?

Who would lead to many calculations and harsh criticism just because of a marriage?

But no matter how lively the rumors were outside, Li Chaosheng didn't know that he was once again buried in a pile of official duties. Who said it was good to be the number one? Being the number one is a word that can control the lives and deaths of countless people. But

The top leader also has troubles. After all, the top leader has too much responsibility. Countless people have to rely on the top leader for food and drink.

"County Honor."

Li Chaosheng was looking at a document. At this time, Guzi came over and woke up Li Chaosheng. Li Chaosheng looked away from the document. At this time, Guzi said: "Your Majesty, the latest military information, yesterday Lu Xiangsheng led the Tianxiong Army to fight with Xingxian County, Shanxi Province.

Encountering Li Zicheng's army, a two-pronged battle broke out. Lu Xiangsheng broke through Li Zicheng's blockade and successfully entered northern Shaanxi. He formed a corner with Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting and surrounded Gao Yingxiang."

Li Chaosheng nodded after hearing this and said: "Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army is weaker than the Tatars, but compared with thieves like Li Zicheng, they are elite soldiers. This is not surprising."

After Li Chaosheng said this, Gu Zi said: "In addition, Lu Xiangsheng sent his housekeeper to Lantian to discuss the purchase of arms. Lu Xiangsheng sold all the properties in his hometown for a total of ten thousand taels of silver. He hopes to buy some grenades from us."

"Oh, buy them all into grenades?"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Gu Zi curiously, and Gu Zi said: "I bought them all as grenades. I asked the butler, and the butler said that his master told me so, and he just followed it."

Li Chaosheng laughed when he heard this and said: "Lu Xiangsheng is still a smart man. If he had enough money, he could indeed buy some of every firearm. But he doesn't have enough money now. Buying grenades is the fastest way to increase the combat effectiveness of his Tianxiong Army."

Gu Zi heard this and said, "Sell it to him?"

Li Chaosheng nodded and said, "Sell it to him."

After hearing this, Gu Zi said: "How about meeting his servant?"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Gu Zi and said, "Is it necessary?"

"Let's meet him. Lu Xiangsheng seems to have asked him to deliver a message to the county magistrate."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Gu Zi, who said, "I asked the butler, but he refused to tell me and insisted on telling you."

Li Chaosheng waved his hand after hearing this, and Gu Zi immediately brought Lu Xiangsheng's old housekeeper in.

"Old servant Lu Zhong has met Mr. Li County."

At this time, an old man in civilian clothes entered the room and saluted Li Chaosheng. Li Chaosheng glanced at the old servant and said, "You see something wrong with me?"

The old servant said: "My master has something to say and asked me to bring it to you."

"explain."

Li Chaosheng put down the document and looked at the old servant. The old servant said: "My master asked me to tell Mr. Li County that this time the three armies besiege the bandits, the bandits will definitely be wiped out. If the bandits are wiped out, the Ming Dynasty will have a chance to recuperate. In three hundred years, the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed."

The dynasty has not come to an end yet, and the world will not be destroyed by the hands of bandits as the county magistrate said. When the Ming Dynasty is still recovering, the magistrate should not act arrogantly, and act accordingly."

"Hahaha……"

After hearing what the old servant said, Li Chaosheng burst into laughter. This Lu Xiangsheng was really a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. He never forgot to support the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, the failure of this peasant uprising is certain, because this peasant uprising was very hasty, and Li Zicheng did not shout out his slogan of eating her mother, drinking her mother, and not paying for the food when the king came.

In other words, this uprising has no program, so the organization is very loose. It is certain that this uprising will be wiped out. This period of peasant uprisings in history also ended in failure. However, the roots of the Ming Dynasty are rotten. As long as there is a little disturbance, such as

If there is a natural disaster, these peasant uprisings will develop again like locusts.

So as soon as Lu Xiangsheng saw that Daming was improving, he came to persuade him. He didn't know whether he regarded him as a friend or what.

Li Chaosheng looked at the old servant and said, "Lu Zhong, right?"

"Go back and tell Lu Xiangsheng that victory is only temporary. Even if they wipe out the bandits this time, it does not mean that the Ming Dynasty can be revived. Tell him not to have too much hope, because the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment."

The corners of Li Chaosheng's mouth turned up, and there was a hint of mischief in his eyes. Lu Zhong didn't understand, but he still held up his hands and said, "Lu Zhong has written down what the county magistrate said, and he will report it to my master verbatim."

Li Chaosheng said: "Okay, the words have been brought. It's time to discuss the sale. Ten thousand taels of silver. The grenades cost six taels of silver each. You can buy a total of 1,666 pieces. Forget it, you have such a large quantity.

, I’ll give you one thousand, six hundred and sixty-seven coins as compensation, pay the money, get the goods, and find him.”

Li Chaosheng pointed at Guzi, who looked at Lu Zhong and nodded with a smile.

After hearing this, Lu Zhong looked at Li Chaosheng and said, "By the way, our master also asked me to tell you something. He asked me to ask the county magistrate if he can fight, and what to fight?"

After hearing this, Gu Zi looked at the old servant and asked tentatively: "Discount?"

"Yes, discount."

Lu Zhong quickly said, why is this word so strange?

Gu Zi smiled and said, "Gong Lu has been with the county minister for a long time, so he already knows about the discount."

After speaking, Guzi looked at Li Chaosheng, and Lu Zhong also looked at Li Chaosheng, waiting for Li Chaosheng's reply. Li Chaosheng laughed and said: "Go back and tell Lu Xiangsheng that if he uses these grenades to kill Tatars, I will give him a 20% discount. Now he

I used grenades to kill compatriots without a penny discount. In addition, I regretted it, so I sold Lu Xiangsheng 1,666 grenades and gave him the remaining four taels of silver in change."

"yes."

Gu Zi replied, Lu Zhong looked embarrassed, how could he still lose money on this transaction?

Lu Zhong was led down, and Gu Zi came back soon. There were specialized people responsible for small things like buying and selling arms. Gu Zi was the secretary of the county magistrate, how could he leave the county magistrate's sight so easily.

After Gu Zi came back, he looked at Li Chaosheng and said, "County Lord, what do you mean by Lu Xiangsheng?"

Li Chaosheng put down the document at this time and said: "I guess he heard some rumors and thought that after the bandits were killed, the court would take action against me. Lu Xiangsheng also knew Lantian's strength, so he didn't want any unpleasantness between the court and us, so

He just reminded me, but he underestimated the ability of the court princes to cause destruction, and overestimated my endurance. Okay, don't worry about him, we can develop normally. As long as we don't mess up and Lantian doesn't mess up, any little kid will do it.

Nothing to fear."

After hearing this, Gu Zi seemed to understand, but he still said: "By the way, county magistrate, I just heard someone report that Zhang Xianzhong sent a messenger to Lantian. He is currently staying in Guanyi and hopes to be summoned by the county magistrate."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng was stunned: "Zhang Xianzhong?"

Gu Zi nodded and said: "Indeed, and I heard from people that this messenger is very crazy and has an aura of superiority to others, which is unpleasant."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Gu Zi and said, "Oh, let's meet him then."

Li Chaosheng said to Gu Zi: "Let him come to see me."

After hearing this, Guzi said: "Yes."

Li Chaosheng stood up and said, "Let's go for a walk in the back garden. Sitting every day is not good for your health."

Soon Li Chaosheng came to the back garden, and Gu Zi had already sent someone to announce Zhang Xianzhong's envoy.

"Hmph, I thought your county government in Lantian County was made of gold. Even this poor county government dares to claim to be rich, but it's not even half as good as my adoptive father's palace."

"This is also called a garden. It is really small and pitiful. People say that Li Chao gave birth to a generation of heroes, but it is nothing more than this."

"This, what is this..."

Li Chaosheng was sitting in the pavilion in the garden eating rhubarb and apricots with Guzi, when he saw a strong man in the distance talking non-stop.

Li Chaosheng frowned slightly: "Is that Zhang Xianzhong's envoy?"

Gu Zi nodded and said: "Yes, Zhang Xianzhong's fourth godson, Ai Nengqi, is famous for his bravery. Together with Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu, he is known as the four great generals."

"A crude martial artist still dares to call himself a general. No matter how powerful he is, can he still be as powerful as a warrior?"

Li Chaosheng said disdainfully. After hearing this, Gu Zi said: "That's right, Brother Mengzi is brave and invincible. I have never seen anyone who can make Brother Mengzi use his full strength."

Li Chaosheng watched Ai Nengqi walking over. When he got close, his bodyguard clasped his fists and said, "Bring the county magistrate Ai Nengqi to you."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng glanced at Ai Nengqi. Ai Nengqi then clasped his fists and said, "Ai Nengqi, the Eighth King's subordinate, has met Commander Li."

Li Chaosheng frowned slightly after hearing this. Commander, this is the name on the green forest road, which is how the bandits call the bandit leader. Ai Nengqi thought that Li Chaosheng was also the bandit leader.

Li Chaosheng glanced at Ai Nengqi calmly and said, "You are Zhang Xianzhong's envoy. What message did Zhang Xianzhong ask you to bring to this county?"

Hearing this, Ai Nengqi cupped his hands and said: "Commander Li, now the imperial court has sent a large army to encircle our leader Gao Yingxiang. You and I are both from the Green Forest Road. At this time, we should work together to attack the court and rescue the leader Gao, in the name of our Green Forest hero. "

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng glanced at Ai Nengqi and laughed: "That's nonsense. I, Li Chaosheng, am an official of the imperial court and the sixth-grade magistrate of Lantian County. When did I become a member of your Green Forest Road?"

"Li Datong, Mingren, don't tell secrets. I have inquired clearly before coming here. You started out as a bandit. You first robbed the Black Dragon Village, and then used the Black Dragon Village to annex the six groups of bandits in Lantian at that time, including the current general. My subordinate Liu Zongmin, this news has been spread for a long time, it is no longer a secret."

Ai Nengqi looked at Li Chaosheng and said, "What are you pretending to be? Everyone is a bandit, what kind of official are you pretending to be?"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Ai Nengqi and said: "Haha, you also investigated me before coming here. Okay, let's just talk about the final goal. There is no need to play the trick of first difficult and then easy."

After hearing this, Ai Nengqi said: "The commander-in-chief was really happy. In this case, I mentioned it. Our eight kings said that you are not on the same side as us, so it is unrealistic to ask you to save Alliance Leader Gao, but our Alliance Leader Gao has It’s difficult, our eight kings need to be rescued, but the eight kings are now blocked from southern Shaanxi by Lantian, so I hope that the commander-in-chief will make a way for our army to pass through southern Shaanxi to rescue Alliance Leader Gao, it won’t be difficult.”

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Ai Nengqi and smiled: "Do you think I can agree?"

Ai Nengqi said: "What's the point? I'm just lending you Lan Tian a way, and I'm not asking you to send troops to fight against the imperial court. Why don't you agree?"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng stretched and said: "Hey, I'm tired of sitting. Okay, Guzi saw off the guests. Go back and bring a message to Zhang Xianzhong. Lantian County does not allow any outside forces to interfere. I will not borrow this road. Let you

The Eight Kings should take a detour."

Li Chaosheng turned to leave, but Ai Nengqi's eyes widened: "Stop!"

Li Chaosheng ignored Ai Nengqi, but Ai Nengqi shouted at the top of his lungs: "Li Chaosheng, stop and don't use the way. Aren't you afraid of the Eight Kings' army?"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Ai Nengqi and said, "Ai Nengqi, ask the Eighth Kings of your family, does he dare to start a war with me, Lantian?"

Ai Nengqi heard this and shouted: "Li, don't be shameless."

"You are so bold. You dare to insult my county magistrate. Let me take you down."

When Gu Zi saw Ai Nengqi being so bold, he was furious. He humiliated his ministers to death. You, a reckless man, dared to insult my county magistrate. You are so bold.

Thinking of Gu Zi's order, the two guards rushed up and prepared to capture Ai Nengqi. However, Ai Nengqi was indeed a fierce general. The two guards were knocked out as soon as they met each other. Seeing this scene, Gu Zi let out a cry.
