"The magistrate of Pixian County, Cao Shancheng, had his nest stolen and his people were also beheaded??"
"Yes, what should I do?"
"What else can we do? Let's repay 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, send a document to the four governors of Bohai, Pingyuan, Dengzhou, and Qizhou, asking them to report their merits to Magistrate Cao, and then ask Lieutenant Fang to visit his hometown in person and take the document to see Qinghe Prefect, ask him if he wants to come together, and be careful to give this person some credit... He has made many friends, what can County Magistrate Cao do, isn't he dragged in? After he is dragged in, he can be taken in turn. Isn’t it enough to use your merits to win over others?”
Cheng Dalang nodded and got off the platform.
In the afternoon, only Li Ding, Zhang Xing, Xiao 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 plan, blowing the wind and watching the clouds. On the table was a pot of tea and two cups...Today's weather, to be honest, is a bit unpleasant. Okay, the clouds are a little thicker and the wind is a little strong... But this kind of scene has happened too many times in the past few years. The two of them are the pair who talk about current affairs the most, and they get together because of political discussions. It's windy, snowy, and lightning. Thunder did not delay the two men's discussion of politics and criticism of Chengyu.
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 Jinsheng, we went to find them, but they were cautious. The governor of Bohai even asked Cheng Mingqi, "Do you want to be an official or a righteous person at Pu Tai?"
"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... even if the army comes over and suppresses it for a while, there will be no delay. These places were in chaos and chaos on their own until the Wei Dynasty was unable to quell the rebellion... Under such circumstances, it is normal for local officials who have lived there for a long time to have their thoughts, and they are not stupid."
"It fell apart." Li Ding sighed. "In Guanlong, it's disintegration. In other places, it's collapse. We've talked about it."
Zhang Xing nodded, then picked up the tea cup to drink.
"What are you going to do next?" The atmosphere between the two parties calmed down a bit, and Li Ding came to ask. "After this battle, the bandits in the surrounding area will not dare to come again, and then the imperial army will probably come to suppress it like thunder. You are the third-ranked criminal on the black list. It is useless to stay here. Why don't you take the opportunity to go away? Go to the north. How about Huang or Dongyi take 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. "Let's see how dilapidated Dongyi is, and whether it still has the ability to compete for supremacy in the world... When the Wei Dynasty fell, it was because they had the right time, the right place, the right people, a great master, the strength of soldiers and horses, and two more There is a supreme being who is vaguely helping from the top, and there are even many generations of Central Atomic brothers who have fled in the past... If they can cheer up, make reforms 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 really change it yourself, then it will be Dongyi's turn. The Wei Dynasty will change those shortcomings on its own. The Tang Dynasty was able to change some things... not to mention the four conquests, the people of Dongyi 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 is going on? They are just a corner of the chess game in the world. If you don't see it with your own eyes, you will have no idea." Zhang Xing nodded. road. "And it is precisely for this reason that I still want to go to the Northern Wilderness... Back then, the Black Emperor, the Witch Clan Sin Dragon, and the Red Emperor Empress rose up from three sides. The Red Emperor Empress was born as an orthodox princess of the Monster Clan. Not to mention, the Black Emperor The fact that I and the evil dragon of the Wu Clan can rise independently may also have something to do with the geographical location they guard... The terrain of the Northern Wilderness is also wonderful."
"Not bad." Li Ding responded immediately. "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 been better than the east, and the north has been better than the south... The terrain in Guanzhong is so good. Outside of the Four Fortresses, there are only a few obstacles from Bashu, Central Plains, and Jin. In comparison, although Dongyi is rich, it is not enough to support them to swallow up the Eastern Territory and Central Plains. , Hebei, Jianghuai and other large open lands; while the Northern Wilderness is too big and too cold, with such a vast territory and sparse population, it is necessary to merge with Hebei and capture the Shan Dynasty in order to stabilize the world."
"Just playing chess." Zhang Xing said disapprovingly. "Of course I know that Guanlong is the best, followed by Beihuang and Dongyi, and Nanling lacks the foundation, but some geography is better than nothing..."
"You just don't want to go to Guanlong?" The wind was getting 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 and take up a post as the master of Hebei, your Miss Bai? What have you experienced since you left Hekou? 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 overgrown. However, 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 just happened 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 Guan Long, I have said it before... that is the difference between Ding Tianxia and An Tianxia." Zhang Xing continued to preach seriously. "Since the Emperor Ancestor's Eastern Expedition, the victors of all dynasties have all started from Guanlong. This has resulted in the layers of merit and nobles there, and they have been constantly connected. They have taken the flesh and blood of Hebei, the Central Plains, and the south of the Yangtze River to supply the 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 other places and Guanlong, then I will tell you clearly that I have this intention."
Li Ding did not feel surprised, but smiled bitterly: "Don't do the easy things, 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 asked immediately. "One more group of Guanlong nobles will be linked together, another Guanlong-Shandong dispute will occur, and another collapse will occur!"
"But, what is the difference between the new group of people from Hebei and Beihuang, Dongyi and Dongjing, and the group of people from Guanlong?" Li Ding was still puzzled. "If we take the road of Hebei and the East, 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 split! At most, it is one step It’s just a long way away!”
"Who says it's not?" Zhang Xing sneered. "But didn't I say it? It can be better if it can be better. It is a dragon that can depose a dragon. Deposing the evil dragon of the Guanlong nobles will always give the people of the world an extra breath, and this breath may It’s a generational thing…why not do it?”
"So is this what it means to depose the Dragon Gang?" Li Ding was suddenly confused. He glanced at Xiao Zhou who turned back curiously, but then smiled bitterly again. "Should we depose this evil dragon like Guan Longgui? No wonder we should depose him instead of get rid of him."
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 became a little tighter, so much so that the shadows of autumn clouds were rolling around and drifting across the balcony in random directions.
"You...what else do you want to do?" Li Ding became a little cautious.
"Nothing." Zhang Xing replied casually. "I'm just going to do my best, 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 to ask. "And some people, like you, what 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?"
"He will 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.
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, but it became cold again, and it seemed that there was a hint of rain, but it was stuck there like Li Silang's words, and could never 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 Being, could you 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? And how can we kill him cleanly?"
The rain gradually fell, unexpectedly, not very urgently.
Li Ding seemed to be relieved: "It seems that I am too stingy... When you get to that point, whether you depose the dragon or slay the god, it is inevitable... But why does it have to be called deposing 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 become a Supreme Being." Zhang Xing sighed.
Li Ding did not say anything this time. Instead, he 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... It's not difficult if you say it's not, I won’t argue with you either!
"Li Silang, do you know what I like most about 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 little rain. Li Ding also calmed down a lot 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 clans 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 about to be stabbed 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 the story in a certain book, the Green Emperor was even afraid of being killed by the White Emperor, and he did not hesitate to descend to earth and pretend to be a white emperor. The emperor's generals hurriedly helped Bai Emperor confirm his throne, and thus saved some of the remaining tribes in the fifty states of Dongyi... Why is this?
And the descendants of the ancestors and emperors came forward one after another and forcibly established the three radiances and four imperialisms. The three radiances were natural things, but they overpowered the four imperialisms. Black and 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 providence...and it is extremely lofty...He does not appear, he does not speak, he has no idols, and after the three radiances and four emperors came out, no one dared to take anything from the ground. No matter how you make random gestures... you all know that there is a heaven above the three radiances and four emperors, and the will of heaven is high enough... Then let me ask you, besides being high, is the will of heaven good or bad? Or should I say it is smooth or against it? Woolen cloth?"
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, He can only be good and smooth... Maybe we are wrong no matter how we speculate, maybe there is no God's will at all, it is just a projection of human will, but it doesn't matter... Just like the Supreme Being who has not lost his morality, Let me tell you, there is no such thing as 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... also seems to be undisputed.
To put it bluntly, without that providence, civilization would not have been possible.
Therefore, God’s will is probably good and absolutely smooth, and there is absolutely no problem with this. As for later discovering that God's will is really bad, that doesn't matter. When that day comes, it's 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, and to point out a way to make it happen. There are ways to make this world more wonderful and civilization more profound." Zhang Xing answered frankly. "Then go and achieve it! And according to the paths of the four supreme beings, as long as your path is right, you can naturally get the bell of God's will and become stronger and stronger. The so-called upholding the will of God, holding the heart of the people below, expanding the earth and gaining Qi, Depose the dragon and strengthen yourself...the territory, people's hearts, and cultivation are actually intertwined with each other, and there is a path that always points to the Supreme."
"This is nonsense." Li Dingfu became calm again. "Isn't this how the four emperors come? But the question is, what exactly is this road? How wide and how high is it? Just depose the Dragon of Guanlong, that's enough? And if this road is high enough, enough It is broad, in line with God's will, and enough to realize the Supreme. Do you know how difficult it will be? Eternity, only four of them! Do you think it is accomplished?"
"If the talisman is not in line with God's will, can't we just try it? 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 the dragons in Guanlong are not enough, 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 really doesn't work, will it be enough if we take the opportunity to dominate the world?"
"What's that?" There was a muffled thunder, and Li Ding picked up the tea cup and drank the last bit of tea, obviously confused. "What personal attachment?"
"As for whether it is difficult or not." Zhang Xing ignored it and continued to talk seriously. "Everything in the world is never a question of whether it is difficult or not, but once the road is opened, it is enough to defeat other opponents... If we can gather people's hearts, call on talents, be down-to-earth, and go up step by step, success or failure, isn't it us? Do you have the final say? Qing Emperor is just not angry. Could it be that he and Bai Emperor will end up having a fight? We can only guide him."
"It's still too far." Li Ding frowned. "Not to mention anything else, there are only a few people in your Deposed Dragon Gang, but they are just a bunch of people. They all have their own desires. Who is willing to bow to you? There is also Li Shu, how are you going to deal with it? Are you sure? Won't you be betrayed by others? Even outside the Deposed Dragon Gang, Du Po Formation of the Huaiyou League is really willing to help you? Hebei heroes, there are still quite a few in officialdom, how can they be willing to help you instead of Da Wei? ? What about Uncle Cao Huang? Even if the Wei Dynasty 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. Let's look at the current situation."
"It's just that these people are all old. From the great masters to the great heroes, they have all been tortured to death by you for decades, but don't they have any talented successors?" Li Ding simply laughed in anger. "Sima Erlong, Zhang Changgong, and countless other talented people who study and meditate at home. When the storm changes, dragons will change... and even your family Bai Changjian... Do you know that if the Bai family becomes powerful? Your Bai Changjian can take over the world and create his own path, so why should he 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 gradually 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. , clattering to the ground, and amid this chaotic sound, he still sat still and spoke seriously. "I know Sisi's abilities better than anyone else, and I respect her and love her. But if I really want to control Sisi from the general trend and force her to go with me, it's 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 the dragon and the phoenix, the only heroes in the world are Zhang San and Li Si." Zhang Xing responded seriously. "Brother Li, if you and I join forces and work together, we can change the color of heaven and earth, and even the Supreme Being can be crowned by him in the sky! A mere dragon of Guanlong, what a piece of shit?! Sisi must also put aside her own thoughts and follow us Let’s do business together.”
Halfway through his words, a muffled thunder suddenly exploded from above his head. Li Silang lowered his head with a solemn expression, his face 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 weird teacup rolled down and startled a few crows who were hiding from the rain under the railing on the side of the steps, and they 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, he just came to see Li Ding.
"Zhang Xing." In the rain, Li Silang looked at the other party and replied seriously. "My talents are limited and can only be used in the military. Only in this way can I hope to dominate the world in this life, become a dragon, become a god, and be famous for generations... I don't know whether your theory of deposing the dragon is profound, but I don't doubt it, but your situation and My thorough knowledge of the military geography of the world is here, and you still 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 stood up, turned around and walked under the podium with Xiao Zhou, 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 anyone 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 there wasn't one, and after the war, your mind wasn't here... Xiao Zhou, do you remember? In fact, there are them in Jiangdu, all year round, even if we have warm weather before it snows I met Jiang Xinzhou once."
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 ordinary people can find something to eat between crops and serious harvests, they will not eat food, not to mention the chaos this year."
"I know." Li Ding nodded. “But what exactly does it mean to eat dirt?”
"It's just eating dirt..." Xiao Zhou wanted to explain, but he was a little confused and could only look at Zhang Xing. "I only know that Jiangdu is really full of dirt. I saw it with my own eyes when Third Brother Zhang and Second Brother Qin went to measure the land. It's really hard to say here."
Li Ding looked at Zhang Xing.
Zhang Xing said disapprovingly: "Actually, I just fished for some small fish and shrimps on the tidal flat to satisfy my 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. "Just take a look and you will know..."
Xiao Zhou also nodded quickly: "Brother Li, go and have a look. You will know after you take a look."
Li Ding was at a loss for a moment, doubtful, but he was dragged off the platform by Zhang Xing, and then walked to the tidal flat outside the camp. When he came off 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 cautiously: "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 fish them out, we won't have time to fish 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 can it be shrimp eggs?"
Several women and children didn't know how to answer at all, and the children didn't dare to speak anymore.
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 the 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 was heavier, and many of the tidal flats were occupied by Jiangdong families to raise geese and cranes. Geese and cranes also liked to eat this. It was for this reason that Brother Zhang ransacked the homes of the eight families and killed all the geese and cranes. ...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 he seemed to expect someone to refute him.
But no one responded, and it seemed that this was really the case.
"Get some military rations from the camp." Li Ding thought for a moment, then held the fish basket and turned around in a low voice to order several officials and sergeants who followed him. "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 ignored him and was cautious before entering the fish basket, 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 skills and only care about your own success, but you are 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, you are not good at cultivation, 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 turned around in the rain. As expected, his face was 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." The foundation is a sure defeat. I don’t even dare to follow you!"
"Abolish personal attachments, kill dragons and revive 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. Can't I afford to gamble? But you, seeing this with your own eyes, can still hold back. It is true that you are from the Guanlong clan, you are full of determination, and you are determined to become a dragon and a god, and be famous for generations to come... …”
"Don't force me." Li Ding was discouraged and left.
"I am patient." Zhang Xing looked at the other party's back and declared boldly. "And I'm not forcing you! I'm here to act as a thief, and I'm waiting for you to come!"
"I still said the same thing." Li Ding almost walked quickly to the camp gate without forgetting to look back. "The heroes of the world are not so easy to deal with! You underestimate the heroes of 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 eastward... 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 or something, so I don't know what happened when Li Ding left.
"Are you Li Ding, the messenger 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 fluctuations, and they would be discussed with Dongdu Bagui, and then he would give 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, because the person 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 energy like a golden wheel. "According to the decree of the ruling emperor Shu 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 beat him into the black tower.
The reason couldn't be simpler. Cao Shancheng, the magistrate of Yixian County, was careful 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 during the battle. Later, the national military supplies and troops were handed over to the local powerful.
It 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.
As a result, Emperor Cao saw clearly and realized the seriousness of the problem, so he decided to put Li Ding in prison for questioning.
ps: Good night everyone.
