Mr. Jin Jian Li Zhu is also a master!

Yao Pingzhong was stunned when he heard this, and everyone in the hall was stunned.

Lu Junyi said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Jin Jian Li Zhu is actually the grand master?"

Zhao Tong nodded and said: "Not a first-class person, nor a little master, this person is indeed a master!"

Zongze frowned and said, "Why would such a person become a thief?"

Zhao Tong said: "The news I got from the Privy Council is that Wang Qing initially rebelled, and was encouraged by Li Zhu to support him. I think... he wanted to be a minister who obeys the dragon!"

Everyone was silent, even Yao Pingzhong, who was eager to try just now, looked a little ugly.

However, it only took a moment for Yao Pingzhong's expression to return to its original state, and he said: "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if Li Zhu is very skilled in martial arts. As long as he can win the ring, sneak into the bandit army, and then make strategic military plans, no matter how high his martial arts skills are, I'm afraid it will be... Don’t you know how to fight?”

Zhao Tong looked at him and smiled slightly: "Are you sure you won't be seen through?"

Yao Pingzhong's chest smacked loudly, "Your Majesty, my subordinates have also been in the martial arts world. How do you think they don't look like a forest hero?"

Zhao Tong looked at him, and found that his temperament was naturally different from that of Liu Qizhe Kecun, but... you didn't seem to have a Jianghu spirit, but rather the ruffian spirit of the Western Army.

He said: "It's not like a good man, he only has one in the army!"

Yao Pingzhong opened his mouth, but Zhe Kechen said aside: "I'm afraid you are not mixed with the heroic spirit of the world and the rogue spirit of a thief and an army."

Yao Pingzhong frowned and said, "Everyone I saw in Green Forest in Guanzhong was like this. What's the difference?"

Zhe Kecun said: "The temperament is different!"

Yao Pingzhong thought for a while: "Yes, yes, I have that kind of temperament that goes forward, fights the enemy bravely, and never retreats. Ordinary people in the world are just ruthless, not that kind of going straight forward, and there are more Somewhat cautious.”

Zhe Kecun said silently: "As long as you are happy."

Yao Pingzhong looked at Zhao Tao and said: "Your Majesty, if I keep practicing, I will definitely be able to do it. The Luzhou Challenge..."

Zhao Tong said: “Let’s discuss it again!”

At this moment, just outside Luzhou City, craftsmen were building an arena.

This time Wang Qing set up the Luzhou Arena, which was actually a last resort.

There were really too many soldiers under his command, and they were all like wolves and tigers. Although they charged into battle bravely, they were completely disorganized and there was no military discipline or strategy at all.

This is also the reason why Deng Xunwu led his troops to conquer and won two games in a row in the first place.

In those two games, Wang Qing's side was defeated because he did not have a general to lead the army. If it were not for the bravery of these bandits and refugees who killed the Forbidden Army in fear, they would not have won and conquered Luzhou.

Afterwards, Wang Qing was frightened and hurriedly consulted with Li Zhu. There were many soldiers but few generals, and they started fighting like swarms of swarms. Sometimes they didn't even listen to military orders. This was not a long-term solution.

Therefore, Li Zhu came up with such a strategy. He set up an arena in front of Luzhou City to recruit heroes from all over the world. He could not only select generals in the arena, but also attract those copycats who had soldiers to submit.

Wang Qing praised at the time that it was indeed a clever plan that killed two birds with one stone, but Li Zhu shook his head and said that it killed three birds with one stone.

Wang Qing asked why, and Li Zhu said that those people from the stronghold may or may not surrender, but just to pay a visit is fine. As long as we take this opportunity to contact him, it will be a big deal, and some big strongholds must be invited to come and watch, such as Hebei Tian. Hu, the youngest Zhong from Liangshan, Shandong and Dongting Lake, etc.

Wang Qing was even more puzzled when he heard this. If he doesn't seek refuge, what's the point of inviting him here?

Li Zhu smiled and said, this is a plan to unite Zongheng.

Thinking back to the end of the Sui Dynasty, not only one family revolted, but eighteen families rebelled against the king, and seventy-two people rose up to overthrow the Sui Dynasty. Now that there are many soldiers in the Song Dynasty, we should unite with more families. After overthrowing the Song Dynasty, think about how to divide the country.

Wang Qing suddenly realized what he had planned, and he followed Li Zhu's plan and began to build Luzhou Lei.

This arena was naturally placed right in front of Luzhou City, with its back to Huaidong and other places, and was supervised by the Imperial Envoy Qiu Xiang.

The ten large arenas must not only be built majestic, but also luxurious. Even the wood must be carefully selected and carved with cloud patterns. The roof of the arena must have a high shed to protect it from the sun and rain, and the outside must be covered with long silk bouquets. , hung in a circle on the roof of the shed.

Although this project is time-consuming and not much, it can be completed before the start time set by Li Zhu.

As for the opposite side of the ring, there are also flower shed seats for watching, which are prepared for Wang Qing and the ministers and generals in the court.

Far away on the other side, many simple houses have been built for some poor green forest heroes to live for free. Of course, those who want to live in the city are also required. As long as you have enough gold, silver and copper in your wallet, the inns and brothels in the city , you can pick it up.

Wang Qing is not afraid of spies sneaking into the imperial court. Firstly, he has masters like Li Zhu sitting in charge. Secondly, he knows that there are few masters in the Forbidden Army. Thirdly, not only does he have many soldiers, but also many green forest heroes. If the imperial court If someone else sneaks in, I'm afraid they will be discovered soon.

The Luzhou Games is scheduled to start on May 19th, and there are still three days left. However, outside Luzhou City, there are already more patrolling soldiers along the border, and the inspections are becoming more rigorous and meticulous.

In the past few days, heroes from all over the mountains and forests came one after another. Luzhou City was full of people inside and outside the city. Even the simple wooden houses next to the ring were full of people.

Just the day before the arena started, on the eighth day of May, a group of three people came from outside Luzhou City.

One of the young men was wearing a silver cloak and a robe full of flowers. He had a straight figure and extraordinary temperament. He had a big pink flower on his temples, his eyebrows were slender, his face was like turmeric, he was smiling but not smiling, and he was holding a folding fan in his hand. , I came here to write a letter under the moonlight, just because you are in the mountains, and there is an evil charm and arrogance in your behavior.

The other person was tall, with a tiger head and tiger eyes, bright eyes, and an unruly look. He had a knife at his waist and a spear behind him. He stood there like half a hill, looking majestic and full of evil spirit.

The last person, however, was wearing a bamboo hat and ordinary clothes, walking at the back. He lowered his head to please his eyes and could not see his expression. At first glance, he looked like an ordinary man in the market. However, this man had a bulging waist. The sleeves are also stiff and stiff, as if there is something hidden inside.

The three people did not run to the city gate, but looked at it for a moment and then came to the ring. Then the ordinary-looking man walking at the end took out a few things from his body and went to the registration area next to the ring to get a shot. call.

The person sitting behind the registration desk was a close associate of Wang Qing, called Du Gui. He was about thirty years old. He looked at the ordinary man and said, "Hero, where do you come from?"

The ordinary man said: "I came from Guanzhong with my master. I heard that the King of Huai was recruiting heroes from all over the world, so I came here to fight for him."

Du Gui said: "Can I also register my nickname?"

The ordinary man said: "Let me talk about my master first, he is Li Fei, who is known as the Jade-faced Butterfly and the sweet-smelling young man."
