"The magistrate of Cao Shancheng, Cao Shancheng, had his nest stolen, and his people were also beheaded??"
"Yes, what should I do?"
"What else can we do? Let me report my merits to Magistrate Cao!" Amid the rumblings, Zhang Xing, who was sitting on the podium, thought for a moment and replied seriously. "In the name of Li Shuijun, I will repay Bohai, Pingyuan, Dengzhou and Qizhou."
The prefect sent a message, asking them to report their merits to Magistrate Cao, and then asked Fang County Lieutenant to go to his hometown in person, take the documents to see the Qinghe Prefect, and ask him if he wanted to come together, and be careful to share the credit with this person.
Someone... who has made many friends, what can County Magistrate Cao do? Isn't he dragged in? After being dragged in, can he use his achievements to attract others? "
Cheng Dalang nodded and got off the platform.
In the afternoon, only Li Ding, Zhang Xing, Little Zhou, and a few crows were left on the grassless podium.
Among them, Xiao Zhou sat down on the stairs holding a cup, while Li and Zhang sat in the middle around a square eucalyptus, blowing the wind and watching the clouds. On the eucalyptus was a pot of tea and two cups...Today's weather, frankly speaking, was a bit...
Not good, the clouds are a little thicker and the wind is a little strong... But this kind of scene has happened a lot in the past few years. The two of them are the couple who talk about current affairs the most, and they get together because of political discussions. It's windy, snowy, and electric.
The flashes of thunder and thunder did not delay the two men from discussing politics and criticizing the public.
But the atmosphere between the two of them was indeed a bit awkward at this moment.
The reason is self-evident. Zhang Xing definitely hopes that Li Ding will stay. This idea has not changed from the beginning, but he also knows that the latter must leave, and both parties knew the other's intentions from the beginning.
"These county guards are also quite interesting."
After Cheng Dalang left, under the shadow of the clouds, Li Ding spoke first and tried his best to smile. "After we defeated Zhang Jinscale, we went to find them, but they were cautious. The governor of Bohai even asked Cheng what his name was, saying that he wanted to be an official at Pu Tai.
Do you want justice?"
"Normal." Zhang Xing sighed. "It is impossible to save the Wei Dynasty, because Hebei, the Central Plains, the East Territory, Jianghuai, and Jiangdong are all people who have lost their hearts. The so-called Wei has been suffering for a long time...it means that a sudden military attack comes.
, suppressed it for a while, without delay, these places were in chaos and repeated themselves, until the Wei Dynasty was unable to quell the rebellion... Under such circumstances, it is normal for local officials who have lived in the place for a long time to have their thoughts, and they are not stupid. "
"It fell apart." Li Ding sighed. "It fell apart in Guanlong, and it fell apart in other places. We have talked about it."
Zhang Xing nodded, then picked up the teacup and drank.
"What are you going to do next?" The atmosphere between the two parties calmed down a little, and Li Ding came to ask. "After this battle, the bandits in the surrounding areas will not dare to come again, and then it is estimated that the imperial army will come like thunder to suppress you. You are a blacklist."
The third imperial convict, it’s useless to stay here, why don’t you take the opportunity to take a walk? How about going to Beihuang or Dongyi to have a look?”
"I really want to go to Dongyi or Beihuang." Zhang Xing, who was sitting in the east, raised his finger and pointed behind him and the north, and answered seriously. "Go and see how dilapidated Dongyi is and whether there is still competition for supremacy.
The ability of the world... When the Wei Dynasty fell, it was because they had the right time, place, people, great masters, strong soldiers and horses, and the faint support of the two supreme leaders from the top, and even many generations fled there
The Central Atomic Brotherhood... If they can cheer up, make changes in their consciousness, and use the name of human race as one, maybe there will be something to say."
"That makes sense."
Li Ding nodded, but then shook his head. "But it's too difficult... The most difficult thing in the world is self-innovation. The term "nature is difficult to change" is so apt. If you can change your own nature, how can you get Dongyi and Wei Dynasty?
Even if we corrected those shortcomings in our own family, the Tang Dynasty could also change some things... What's more, after four conquests, Dongyi's own people were exhausted and internal fighting continued."
"So if the situation is really bad and you have to leave, then go take a look and see what's going on? They are just a corner of the world's chess game. If you don't see it with your own eyes, you will have no idea." Zhang Xing nodded.
"And it is precisely for this reason that I want to go to the Northern Wilderness... At that time, the Black Emperor and the Sin Dragon of the Witch Clan, the Red Emperor Empress rose from three sides, and the Red Emperor Empress was born as the orthodox princess of the Demon Clan, not to mention,
The rise of the Black Emperor and the Sinful Dragon of the Witch Clan may be related to the geographical location they guard... The terrain of the Northern Wilderness is also wonderful."
"That's right." Li Ding immediately responded. "Beihuang, Dongyi, and Guanzhong are all typical places where the struggle for hegemony is based. But you should also know that since the three tribes fought for hegemony, for thousands of years, the West has basically won.
In the east, north is better than south... The terrain in Guanzhong is so good. Outside of the four fortresses, there are only a few obstacles from Bashu, the Central Plains, and Jin. In comparison, although Dongyi is rich, it is not enough.
Support them to swallow up large open areas such as the Eastern Territory, the Central Plains, Hebei, Jianghuai and so on; while the Northern Wilderness is too big and too cold, and the land is vast and sparsely populated. Only by annexing Hebei and taking over the Shan Dynasty can the world be stabilized.
.”
"Just playing chess." Zhang Xing said disapprovingly. "Of course I know that Guanlong is the best, followed by Beihuang, Dongyi, and Nanling lacks a foundation, but some geography is better than nothing..."
"You just don't want to go to Guanlong?" The wind got a little stronger, and Li Ding finally couldn't help but take the initiative to touch on that issue. "You don't want to go to Wu'an to take up the post and be the master of Hebei for your Miss Bai? After you leave Hekou, you
What exactly have you gone through, and why are you so determined all of a sudden?"
"I have never experienced anything. I am just a rebel by nature. If I have to say there is anything special, it is nothing more than seeing villages abandoned and crops growing overgrown. But this is different from the impermanence of life and death I saw along the way.
It's worth mentioning." Zhang Xing responded calmly. "It didn't happen suddenly, it was just that the water was full and suddenly overflowed."
Li Ding looked up to the sky and sighed, but he had nothing to say.
"As for Guanlong, I have said it before... that is the difference between Dingtianxia and Antianxia." Zhang Xing continued to preach seriously. "Since Emperor Zu's Eastern Expedition, the winners of all dynasties have all started from Guanlong. This is
It makes the meritorious and noble people there pile up one after another, and they are constantly connected, and they take the flesh and blood of Hebei, the Central Plains, and the south of the Yangtze River to supply one place. They are so greedy that people's hearts turn away... This is wrong. And if you want to ask me if I am ready to help it.
If you want to stay at home and merge with Guanlong, then I can tell you clearly that I have this intention."
Li Ding did not feel surprised, but smiled bitterly: "Don't do the easy things, but only do the difficult ones?"
"If you don't take the road that is better for the people of the world, do you have to take the bad one?" Zhang Xing immediately asked. "Collude with a group of nobles from Guanlong again, start another dispute between Guanlong and Shandong, and do it again
Fall apart!"
"But, what is the difference between the new group of people from Hebei and Beihuang, Dongyi and the Eastern Territory, and the group of people from Guanlong?" Li Ding was still puzzled. "Just take the road from Hebei to the Eastern Territory.
Now, they won’t be arrogant in the future? They won’t fall apart? Didn’t you tell me that day, the general trend of the world is that if we divide for a long time, we will unite and if we unite for a long time, we will separate! At most, it’s just one step away!”
"Who says it's not?" Zhang Xing sneered. "But didn't I say it? If it can be better, it can be better. If you can depose a dragon, it is a dragon. If you depose the evil dragon of the Guanlong nobles, you can always bring peace to the world.
Take another breath, and this breath may be the matter of a generation... Why not do it?"
"So is this what you mean by deposing the Dragon Gang?" Li Ding was suddenly confused. He glanced at Xiao Zhou who looked back curiously, but then smiled bitterly again. "We want to depose this evil dragon Guan Longgui? No wonder it is deposed instead of eliminated."
Zhang Xing didn't say anything, but gave the other party a strange look.
But just such a glance made Li Ding instantly alert, and he even felt a little bit like the hairs on his hair were standing on end... He didn't even know if it was an illusion, but even the sound of the wind was a little louder, so much so that the shadows of autumn clouds were rolling around, and they were floating randomly across the balcony.
"You...what else do you want to do?" Li Ding became a little cautious.
"I'm not doing anything." Zhang Xing replied casually. "I'm just trying my best. I can take one step at a time and go as far as I can..."
"Zhang Sanlang, this is the truth, but some people... We don't say they can leave, but the farthest we can think of is just a dispute between Guanlong and Hebei... just like Fang Yanshi." Li Ding.
He pursed his lips and tried his best to ask, "And for some people, like you, where is the furthest way they can think of?"
Zhang Xing still looked at the other party strangely, as if he thought the other party was a bit talkative: "What is your ambition?"
"To unify the world, attain the rank of god, and be famous for eternity." Li Ding blurted out. "Didn't you already know that?"
Zhang Xing remained silent and answered.
Li Ding opened his mouth to speak, but there was no sound and he was sweating profusely. At this time, the autumn wind was even worse and it became cold again. It seemed that there was a hint of rain, but like Li Silang's words, they were stuck there and could not be poured out.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Ding finally lowered his voice and said: "You... if you are... I mean if you are, if you become the Supreme, you will really kill all the real dragons in the world and return them to the earth... that is,
Does the vitality of heaven and earth belong to humans?"
Zhang Xing finally came to laugh: "Black Emperor can do it, White Emperor can do it, but other supreme beings can't do it? And how to kill him cleanly?"
The rain gradually fell, unexpectedly, not very quickly.
Li Ding seemed to be relieved: "It seems that I am too stingy when you say this... At that point, whether you depose the dragon or slay the god, it is inevitable... But why does it have to be called dethroning the dragon?
Not slaying dragons or slaying gods?"
Zhang Xing narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
Perhaps because of the raindrops, Li Ding did not notice the subtle changes in the other party's expression this time. Instead, he continued: "And to put it bluntly, how can the Supreme be easily attained?"
"I think it's not difficult to achieve the supreme status." Zhang Xing sighed.
Li Ding did not say anything this time, but glanced at the other party, and went to get the untouched cup of tea, preparing to drink it before the raindrops stained it... The meaning is very simple... If you say it is not difficult, it is not difficult, right?
I won’t argue with you either!
"Li Silang, do you know what I like most in this world?" Zhang Xing didn't care, and just asked in the light rain.
Both of them are masters of Qijing, so they are naturally not afraid of this rain. Li Ding also became more calm and just responded casually: "The vitality of heaven and earth?"
"It's God's will!" Zhang Xing blurted out.
Li Silang was stunned in place, as if he thought of something, but he didn't catch it.
Zhang Xing finally smiled: "I dare to ask Li Silang, the three tribes of humans, lich and demons are fighting for hegemony. The Black Emperor and the Red Emperor empress each hold their own positions, and their intestines are almost torn out. Without delay, they can all achieve the supreme throne, and the witches
The dragon who has committed family sins can only hide in the sea of misery, so what is the point?
The White Emperor swept through hundreds of tribes, effectively abolishing the fortunes of the two races of lich and witches, slaying dragons and cutting off rivers, enforcing laws and regulations... According to a story in a certain novel, the Green Emperor was even afraid of being killed by the White Emperor, and he did not hesitate to descend to earth to fake it.
The generals under Bai Diye hurriedly assisted Bai Diye in confirming his throne, and thus saved some tribes left in the fifty states of Dongyi... Why is this happening?
And the descendants of the ancestors and emperors came forward one after another and forcibly established the Three Brilliance and Four Imperial Majesty. The three radiance is a natural thing, but it overpowers the four imperial lords. Black, white, red and green, who can't stand up and say it? Why is this?
?”
"Because God's will is high." Li Ding answered seriously in the rain while holding a tea cup.
"Yes, it's because God's will is so high." Zhang Xing sighed and looked at the sky. "In my opinion, the most wonderful thing about this world is this God's will... and it's extremely high... She doesn't show up, she doesn't speak, and she doesn't have a statue.
, after the three radiances and four emperors came out, no one dared to make random gestures with anything on the ground... We all know that there is a sky above the three radiances and four emperors, and the will of heaven is high enough... Then let me ask you, apart from the will of heaven
Is height good or bad? Or is it smooth or against?"
Li Ding was silent for a moment. He wanted to tell the other party that this kind of theological issue is not something we should worry about, but at this time he had to admit that this theological issue would probably determine his lifelong ambition and the determination of the person in front of him.
, determines the fate of everyone.
"It's probably good, right?" Li Ding could only say this. "It must be smooth."
"That's right." Zhang Xing finally smiled. "For us mortals, she can only be good and smooth... Maybe we are wrong no matter how we speculate, maybe there is no God's will at all, just a projection of human will, but it doesn't matter
...Just like the Supreme Being who has never lost his virtue, let me say that there is no bad or unfavorable destiny in God’s will, is it always right?”
The rain started to rain inexplicably, and Li Ding's breathing also became rapid.
This principle is not particularly vague, nor is it anything new. When the Trinity Orthodox Church was founded, it was the mainstream statement for the final explanation of most religions in the world.
To put it bluntly, the civilizational context of this world is clear and can be followed, the process of the four supreme beings' attainments is also there, and the evolution of several special true dragons is also clear... Therefore, the expression may be different, but God's will favors the development of civilization.
Progress, falling in love with the world becoming wonderful... seems to be undisputed.
To put it bluntly, without that providence, civilization would not have been possible.
Therefore, there is absolutely no problem that God's will is probably good and absolutely smooth. As for later finding out that God's will is really bad, that doesn't matter. When that day comes, it is another matter.
"So?" Li Ding took a deep breath and continued to ask.
"So, if you want to become the Supreme Being, the first step is to follow the will of God to create the throne... For example, to unify the world, to unite the three radiances into one, to depose the dragon. In short, to turn the world upside down, you have to point out a way to make it happen.
There is a way to make this world more wonderful and the civilization to be more profound." Zhang Xing answered honestly. "Then go and achieve it! And according to the ways of the four supreme beings, as long as your own path is right, you can naturally get the Bell of God's Will.
Getting stronger and stronger, the so-called upholding the will of heaven, holding the people's heart below, expanding the territory to gain Qi, dethroning the dragon and strengthening oneself... The territory, people's hearts, and cultivation are actually intertwined with each other, and there is a road that always points to the Supreme."
"This is nonsense." Li Dingfu became calm again. "Isn't this how the Four Imperial Guards come about? But the question is, what exactly is this path? How wide and how high is it? Just depose the Dragon of Guanlong, that's enough.
? And if this road is high enough, wide enough, in line with God's will, and enough to realize the Supreme, do you know how difficult it will be? It will only be four people in eternity! Do you think it will be accomplished?"
"If the talisman is not in line with God's will, why not just give it a try? It's like whether God's will is good... regardless of other things, just follow this method." Zhang Xing still didn't care.
"Attitude is attitude, difficulty is difficulty." Li Ding sneered. "What exactly is it?"
"If it's not enough to depose the dragon in Guanlong, then all the dragons in the world will be deposed, and the personal dependence will be abolished, so that everyone in the world can become a dragon, so what?" Zhang Xing asked seriously. "If it is not possible, and taking the opportunity to unify the world, will it be enough?
?”
"What's that?" There was a muffled thunder, and Li Ding picked up the tea cup and drank the last bit of tea, obviously puzzled. "What kind of personal attachment?"
"As for whether it is difficult or not." Zhang Xing ignored it and continued to talk seriously. "The world's affairs have never been a question of whether it is difficult or not. It is about how to defeat other opponents after the road is opened... If we can gather people's hearts
, call on the talents, be down-to-earth, and move up step by step. Aren't we the ones who have the final say whether we succeed or not? The Qing Emperor is just not angry. Did he end up having the same fate as the Bai Emperor? It can only lead to
Guide it.”
"It's still too far." Li Ding frowned. "If you don't say anything else, there are only a few people in your Deposed Dragon Gang. They are just a bunch of people. They all have their own needs. Who is willing to accept your request?"
Bye? There is another Li Shu. How are you going to deal with it? Are you sure you won't be betrayed by him? Outside of the Deposed Dragon Gang, the Du Po Formation of the Huaiyou League is really willing to help you? There are quite a few heroes of Hebei.
Officially, why are you willing to help you instead of Wei? What about Uncle Cao? Even if Wei collapses on its own, other nobles of Guanlong will naturally come out with a hero. When the time comes to restore the system, how can you win?
"
Zhang Xing disagreed and immediately replied: "We are all gone. Let's count the famous people. We still have to look at the current situation."
"These people are all old. From great masters to great heroes, you have supported them all to death for decades, but don't they have any talented successors?" Li Ding simply laughed in anger. "Sima Erlong
, Zhang Changgong, and countless talented people who are studying and meditating at home. When the storm changes, the dragon will change... and even your Bai Changjian... Do you know that if the Bai family really becomes powerful, your Bai Changjian will
I can take over the world by myself and open my own path, so why should I listen to your instructions?"
"We can't control the real dragon hidden at home, but when it comes to Sisi, we have to talk about another person." The rain became heavier, and Zhang Xing's whole body showed his true energy, so much so that the raindrops turned into ice beans when they hit it.
, fell to the ground with a crackle, and amidst this chaotic sound, he still sat still and spoke seriously. "I know Sisi's ability better than anyone else, and I respect her and love her, but if you really want to make your thoughts based on the general trend,
Thinking about it, setting up a situation to force her to accompany me is not difficult, it only takes one person!"
"Are you talking about me?" Li Ding opened his mouth and smiled, looking at the sky... He also opened his Qi, but it was far inferior to the other party. Some of the rainwater even passed through the Qi directly and wet his clothes.
"Besides dragons and phoenixes, the only heroes in the world are Zhang San and Li Si." Zhang Xing responded sternly. "Brother Li, if you and I join forces and work together, we can change the color of the world and the supreme being can go to heaven to praise him! It's just a mere pass.
Long Zhilong, what the heck?! Sisi also wants to put aside her own thoughts and start a career with us."
Halfway through his words, a muffled thunder suddenly exploded from above his head. Li Silang lowered his head, his solemn expression unchanged, and the teacup in his hand was steady. However, Xiao Zhou, who didn't know when he turned around, suddenly dropped the teacup in his hand and slid along the podium.
The solid and strange tea cup rolled down, alarming a few crows who were hiding from the rain under the railing on the side of the steps, and fled in a hurry.
Zhang Xing then laughed and scolded him on the spot: "Xiao Zhou, a man, how can you be afraid of thunder? It's outrageous."
Then, I just came to see Li Ding.
"Zhang Xing." Li Silang looked at the other party in the rain and replied seriously. "My talents are limited and can only be used in military affairs. Only in this way can I hope to dominate the world in this life, become a dragon, become a god, and become a celebrity for generations... Your theory of deposing the dragon
I don’t know if it’s profound or not, but I don’t doubt it, but given your situation and my thorough understanding of the world’s military geography, you can’t let me choose to be a thief with you here!”
"I won't reveal your little reason why you don't want to be subordinate to me, but you must remember that you can't escape my grasp in this life." Zhang Xing sighed, stood up, and gave up this effort.
Li Ding was also relieved.
The two of them stood up, turned around and walked together with Xiao Zhou under the podium, preparing to take shelter from the rain, as if they had not said anything just now... After walking a few steps, Li Ding suddenly stopped and curiously looked towards the south towards the river.
.
"What is that?" Li Ding was puzzled. "Why is there someone on the mudflat at this time?"
"It was there a few days ago," Zhang Xing blurted out. "Before the war, you didn't let go of this tidal flat, so it wasn't there, and after the war, your mind wasn't here... Do you remember Xiao Zhou? In fact, there is also one in Jiangdu.
, available all year round, we saw it once in Jiangxinzhou where the weather was still warm before the snow started to fall."
Xiao Zhou was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "I know, they are eating dirt!"
Li Ding was confused for a moment and stood on the steps, puzzled: "What does eating dirt mean?"
"It means eating soil." Xiao Zhou Zhengse explained. "As long as the common people can find something to eat between crops and serious harvests, they will not eat grain. What's more, there has been chaos this year."
"I know." Li Ding nodded. "But what does eating dirt mean?"
"It's just eating soil..." Xiao Zhou wanted to explain, but he was a little confused. He could only look at Zhang Xing. "I only know that people in Jiangdu really eat soil. I went to measure the land with Third Brother Zhang and Second Brother Qin."
I saw it with my own eyes, but it’s really hard to say here.”
Li Ding looked at Zhang Xing.
Zhang Xing said disapprovingly: "Actually, we just catch some small fish and shrimps on the tidal flat to satisfy our hunger..."
"That's just eating fish and shrimp, how about eating dirt?" Li Ding rolled his sleeves angrily. "You two are really alarmists..."
"Go and have a look!" Zhang Xing suggested. "You'll know after just one look..."
Xiao Zhou also nodded quickly: "Brother Li, go and take a look. You will know after you take a look."
Li Ding was at a loss for a moment, hesitant, but he was dragged off the platform by Zhang Xing, and then walked to the tidal flat outside the camp. When he came down from the platform, the sergeants and civil servants in the camp were at a loss when they saw this scene.
I had no choice but to follow, and as expected, I was blocked by a few barefoot women and children.
The latter was frightened and wanted to bow down on the tidal flat to explain, but Xiao Zhousuo raised his hand to stop him, and stepped forward to ask: "Are you fishing for shrimps or crushed algae?"
"It's shrimp eggs." A half-grown girl blurted out, but her mother reached out and held her down.
Immediately, the latter responded carefully: "They are shrimp eggs. Thanks to the grace of the master here, we are allowed to go to the beach. The crops are almost ready. If we don't catch them, we won't have time to catch them after autumn."
Xiao Zhou stretched out his head, looked at the contents of the old fish basket, nodded, then picked it up and handed it back to Li Ding.
Li Ding stretched out his head to take a look and was stunned on the spot. Then he held the fish basket and asked the women and children seriously: "Isn't this dirt? How about shrimp eggs?"
Several women and children did not know how to answer, and the children did not dare to speak any more.
Xiao Zhou, on the other hand, remained calm: "The shrimp eggs must be in the mud... The fish, shrimp mucus and some algae are too sticky and easily stained by mud. Without good tools, they can't be removed at all, so they rinse off the sand and even the mud."
Eating them together can always have some effect, so I just said eating dirt... These are the ways that people found to satisfy their hunger during the years of disaster, so I wrote them down... And there are actually more in Jiangdu, because there are more
The land tax is heavier, and many tidal flats have been occupied by Jiangdong families to raise geese and cranes. Geese and cranes also like to eat this. Zhang Sange ransacked the homes of the eight families and killed all the geese and cranes for this purpose.
...Brother Li, women and children are incapable of catching fish and shrimps."
Li Ding was silent for a long time, he hesitated to speak, his eyes wandered on Zhang Xing, Zhou Xingfan and the women and children, as if he was a little unbelievable, and seemed to expect someone to refute him.
But no one responded, it seemed that this was really the case.
"Get some military rations from the camp." Li Ding thought for a while, holding the fish basket and turned back to the officers and sergeants who followed him in a low voice and ordered, "One bag for each person, half a bucket for the child."
The sergeant was ordered to leave, and the women and children no longer paid any attention to unnecessary matters. They kowtowed together in the tidal flat under the rain, saying that they were benefactors, and their heads were covered with mud and rainwater.
Li Dingli paid no attention to him, and was cautious before entering the fish basket. He then walked back as if he was running away.
Zhang Xing turned around and caught up with him, scolding him on the spot: "My dear friend, you are full of abilities and you only care about becoming a dragon and a god, but are you going to step on these people and eat dirt for the rest of your life?"
Li Ding quickened his pace.
But Zhang Xing caught up with him, grabbed his sleeve with one hand, and then turned around and smiled at the women and children: "Don't call him your benefactor, he is helping the Guanlong people to oppress you, so that you can only eat dirt for generations to come."
The thief!"
Li Ding finally used his strength to shake off the person beside him, but his sleeves and legs were torn directly.
Zhang Xing, holding his already soaked sleeves and legs, couldn't help but laugh: "Li Zeigong, your cultivation is not good, how can you break your defense? Sisi is better than you... How can you do this with such concentration?"
What's the big deal?"
Li Ding finally looked back in the rain, his face was indeed wet, but his tone was fierce: "The dragon you want to depose is not just Guanlong, right? It's not just Jiangdong...Hebei...what do you use as a foundation? You don't have your own."
Foundation, it’s a doomed situation. I don’t even dare to follow you!”
"Abolish personal attachments, kill dragons and rejuvenate people, that's all. It's not a big deal. Take your time and go deeper step by step." Zhang Xing stood on the river beach with his hands behind his back and responded calmly. "As for success or failure, it's just one life. I
Can't you afford to gamble? But you, seeing this with your own eyes, can still hold back. You are really from the Guanlong clan, you are full of determination, and you are determined to become a dragon and a god, and be famous forever..."
"Don't force me." Li Ding was discouraged and left.
"I'm patient." Zhang Xing looked at the other party's back and declared boldly. "And I'm not forcing you! I'm here in front of a thief, and I'm waiting for you to come!"
"I still say the same thing." Li Ding almost walked to the camp gate quickly without forgetting to look back. "Heroes in the world are not so easy to deal with! You underestimate the heroes in the world!"
"Just do it, think about it, and decide on it." Zhang Xing sighed quietly in the rain, letting the rain wet him before turning back.
A few days later, it cleared up after the rain, and the report of victory was well done. Li Ding, escorted by messengers and soldiers from several counties, fled eastwards... Zhang Xing did not see him off, but
He ordered the entire army to rest and reorganize, set up a garrison in Putai, inspect the unclaimed land, and prepare to help the surrounding people harvest local crops.
After this is done, I am afraid that I will have to go to Jiyin to escort ordnance and so on, so I don't know what happened after Li Ding left.
"Are you Li Ding, the envoy of Dushui?"
It was probably not long after the autumn harvest. In the familiar hall of the Dongdu Military Department, Li Ding, who had just arrived here when he entered the city, presented a military report. He sat and waited from morning to afternoon, not caring, because he knew that this military report would inevitably
It would cause turmoil, and they discussed it with Dongdu Bagui, and then gave him an explanation in the afternoon... Sure enough, someone came at noon, and asked Li Ding as soon as he entered the door.
"I am Li Ding."
Li Silang quickly stood up and handed over his hand, because the man opposite him was Zhu Shou, who could almost be considered to be a close aide of Emperor Cao Cao.
"That's good." That Zhu Shou, who was Luo Fang, was impatient for a moment and turned around to look at each other. At the same time, his body glowed with radiant Qi like a golden wheel. "According to the decree of the ruling emperor, Uncle Jun, take it!"
Li Ding was stunned for a moment, but he was swarmed by a group of knights in fine uniforms, captured him on the spot in the Ministry of War Hall, and drove him into the black tower.
The reason couldn't be simpler. Cao Shancheng, the county magistrate of Yi County, was serious and meticulous. While accepting the merit report from his superiors, he sent a document in advance describing the possible course of the battle in detail, and pointed out that Li Ding was likely to collude with the local government.
Later, the national military supplies and troops were handed over to the local powerful.
He even mentioned the underworld's dethronement of the Dragon Gang and the traitors Li Shu and Zhang Xing.
It can only be said that the Wei Dynasty had loyal ministers, and Zhang Sanlang underestimated the heroes of the world.
Therefore, Uncle Cao was aware of the situation and realized the seriousness of the problem, so he decided to take Li Ding into prison for questioning.
