But sometimes, we have to admit that only such bold people can get ahead.
Without courage, even if there is an opportunity, you will often miss it.
Of course, it seems that Wang Xu's ability is hard to say at the moment, and his luck is really bad.
I had just joined the great cause of the uprising, and before I could make any splash, I ran into an opponent like Meng Zhao, who was at the level of a demon king. It can only be said that my luck was bad!
Meng Zhao has just listened to Meng Chuan's report. What the Jingshan bandits revealed is very similar to what Wang Xu said. The information is generally consistent, the only difference is that what Wang Xu said is more detailed.
At the same time, Meng Zhao also became interested in this rebel army hidden in Liangzhou, which seemed to have grown in size but did not show up in a big way, and asked,
"Tell me more about the situation of this rebel army, who is leading it, the specific number of rebels, the generals of all parties, and military supplies. In short, the more detailed the better!"
At present, among the three states in the North, Jizhou, Liangzhou, and Yanzhou, the calmest one is definitely Jizhou. Not only are the nine princes in charge, but the Houlei family of Beining and the Bomeng family of Nan'an also complement each other. The army has gathered to suppress all abnormal movements, just like in the prosperous times. Next is Yanzhou. Although the big thunder of Pudu Sect is buried below, one thing is that now that Pudu Sect has ceased its activities and actively avoided it, the imperial court can still maintain the general direction. In addition, with the old guy Tan Changming here, for a while, he can also
Nothing serious will happen.
The worst is Liangzhou. Because it is located in the border area, the location is the most remote. There has also been a heavy snowstorm that has not been seen in ten years. Chaos and smoke are everywhere. Although there are no particularly large-scale events, the local people have been somewhat overwhelmed.
situation.
People kill people, people kill officials, thieves kill officials, officials kill thieves, gangs, sects, and aristocratic families all turn into a pot of porridge.
For example, the continuous flow of refugees has shown that the government in Liangzhou has no time to care about relieving the victims.
Therefore, Meng Zhao was not surprised that there was now a large-scale rebel army in Liangzhou. He just wanted to know the information in detail so that he could know himself and the enemy and be victorious in every battle.
After all, people have already begun to put eyes and spies into Lingwu City, and be prepared to cooperate inside and outside. Wishful thinking is so loud, so he has to pay more attention to it.
Wang Xu sighed bitterly and racked his brains to tell him all the information he knew about this rebel army.
The first is the size of this rebel army. From what Wang Xu knows, the number should be around 20,000, at least according to the number he observed.
However, more than 20,000 people are well-trained and have good basic skills.
Two days of training and five days of training can be regarded as the seeds of elite soldiers, and many generals are also very good in martial arts, reaching the threshold of innateness.
A big bandit like him who runs the crossroads must behave honestly in the rebel camp.
No matter how high his martial arts skills are, if he is surrounded by a large army and cooperates with powerful generals, his death will definitely be miserable, and he may not cause any splash.
In addition, a very important point is that the leader of this rebel army has extremely strong martial arts skills and his identity is a mystery. He always wears a mask and his voice is indistinguishable.
Having said this, Meng Zhao narrowed his eyes and asked,
"The person you mentioned is extremely powerful in martial arts. Can you be more specific? What is his level of cultivation? Does he belong to the innate level, or has he surpassed the innate level and entered the realm of a master?"
Meng Zhao now has advanced cultivation and many trump cards. Facing the master warrior, he is no longer as fearful and uneasy as before.
But we still attach great importance to it, especially if the other party has the ability to lead troops, it is a big threat.
Wang Xu was still kneeling on the ground in humiliation and did not get up. Hearing this, he said uncertainly,
"From a villain's point of view, the rebel leader's aura oppression is not as strong as that of the general."
This is a very clever thing to say. It’s just like not saying it. Anyway, you can’t guess correctly.
Aura can be hidden, and it varies from person to person. However, no one has strong martial arts, and his aura must be stronger. It can only be said that there is a certain correlation.
Meng Zhao's expression also became serious, and he pondered for a long time.
In fact, he has been collecting information about the Huangtang Li family, but there has been no result.
I don’t know if there is any handwriting from the Li family behind this rebel army, maybe not, maybe there is.
After all, the Li family is not the only careerist in the world, and the Li family is not the only one capable of raising an elite team. Such speculation can only be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"What about supplies? The snowstorm in Liangzhou has had a great impact. How to supply supplies to the rebel army?"
This is actually the most critical point. There is a saying that goes before the three armies are moved, food and grass must go first.
Fighting a war may seem like a bloody battle, but what is really fought for is national power. National power is food, grass, population, ordnance, etc.
Twenty thousand people are still a group of powerful men. Eating, drinking and having sex is definitely not a simple matter. There must be people who are good at overall planning, so that the arrangements can be well organized and there will definitely be a stable supply channel.
For example, for today's Yangwu Army, whether it is daily consumption or monthly food and salary expenditures, the large and small forces in Lingwu City take the lion's share, and the court represented by the city lord's palace takes the small share. Only in this way can the supply be stabilized, and there is no risk of food shortages.
.
Liangzhou was already in turmoil due to lack of food. This army did not attack cities or seize territory or seize military supplies. It could only be supported by big families.
This can be seen even if Meng Zhao didn't know much information.
"Well, I didn't stay among the rebels for a long time. I just saw that the rebels had plenty of food and grass, and there was no shortage of military supplies. They also provided the elixir resources needed for the cultivation of the strong men in the army on time. Someone should be there.
They are secretly supporting you, but you can’t guess who it is!”
Seeing the disappointed look on Meng Zhao's face, Wang Xu's heart trembled and he quickly said,
"But, but, the villain is very powerful and is highly valued by the rebel leader, so he was able to go deep into the rebel camp. I once accidentally saw the third manager of Lifeng Trading Company coming in and out of the rebel camp. He seemed to be involved." "General, please don't think that the villain is lying. When the villain was a thief in Jingshan, he had interactions with people from all walks of life. Lifeng Trading Company also offered a lot of money to buy the way every time he passed through Jingshan, so he became familiar with Lifeng.
The third manager of the firm."
Lifeng Trading Company is a large chamber of commerce in Liangzhou. If there is a list, it may not necessarily be the richest, but it must be a wealthy businessman on the list.
Some of the fleets and industries under Meng Zhao's name previously had some cooperative relationships with Lifeng Trading Company.
But the most famous thing about Li Feng Trading Company is actually its current boss lady.
A legendary woman who, after her husband died, had no support and no background, relied on her own efforts to support and grow her husband's family's industry.
Beauty, wisdom, understanding, strength, courage, and other words of praise and praise are no exaggeration to describe this widowed landlady.
