PS: Thanks to the book friend Snow Knight in the Mountain for the tip.
"So you want to go to the Tiger Flag?" Zeng Fukui asked.
Wang Changming, the small leader of the rebel army, said: "Of course I want to go. The Tiger Character Banner has won battles time and time again, and even the court can do nothing about it. There are few in the rebel army who are unwilling to go."
"I heard that Xi'an Prefecture has been captured by the Tiger Character Banner. If you want to join the Tiger Character Banner, you can go to Xi'an Prefecture and try." Zeng Fukui grabbed a peanut and threw it into his mouth.
Wang Changming smiled bitterly when he heard this and said: "It's not that simple. Right now, it's not easy for me to leave Liting Town, and with my identity, I will definitely be secretly watched by Zhang Nanzhong's people. Once If my intention to leave Liting Town appears, Zhang Nazhong will definitely think that I am going to Wen County to deliver a message to Hong Taotian. With his vicious methods, how can I still survive?"
"What you said makes sense." Zeng Fukui rubbed his chin with his fingers and nodded thoughtfully.
Wang Changming raised the wine bowl in his hand and said: "Stop talking about this, drink and drink!"
Zeng Fukui picked up the wine bowl and touched it with him.
The two of them drank together, but Wang Changming, who had something on his mind, drank more. After a while, his eyes became blurred and he became drunk.
The jar of wine was quickly consumed, and the peanuts used to accompany the wine were all eaten. More than half of the wine went into Wang Changming's stomach.
"Brother Fukui, I'm leaving. I'll have a drink with you next time." Wang Changming put his hand on the edge of the kang and got off the kang. He swayed and waved to Zeng Fukui who was on the kang.
Zeng Fukui put on his shoes, stood up from the kang, put his hand on the other person's arm, and said, "Is it okay? I think you can't stand still. How about I take you back!"
"No, it's okay. I can walk on my own without Brother Fukui's help." Wang Changming freed his arms from his hands, took three steps and took one step back towards the outhouse.
Fortunately, there was a curtain between the east room and the outer room, and we arrived at the outer room in a few steps.
Zeng Fukui followed him out uneasily, and kept sending the person out of the hospital, watching him go away, and then came back.
As soon as he entered the room, he found that Wang Jian was already sitting on the earthen bed in the east room.
"Why didn't you agree to him?" Wang Jian asked.
Zeng Fukui was stunned and asked: "Promise what?"
"The man just now said that he wanted to join the Tiger Flag. If we can draw him over, it will be easier for us to deal with Zhang Xianzhong." Wang Jian said.
Zeng Fukui sat down at the table, picked up the kettle and poured water directly into his mouth. After taking several gulps, he put down the kettle and said, "How can you guarantee that he won't expose us in order to please Zhang Xianzhong?"
"I think he has a good relationship with you! He left food for you, and even came to you with wine to drink when he was in a bad mood. You two should have a good relationship." Wang Jian frowned slightly.
Zeng Fukui said: "No matter how good the relationship is, I can't take risks. As long as he is not one of my own, I will not reveal my identity to him. In his eyes, I am just an ordinary citizen of Liting Town."
"You are really cautious enough." Wang Jian said, "Since I can't tell him your identity, why not try to leak Zhang Xianzhong's identity, maybe it will be of some use."
After hearing this, Zeng Fukui shook his head and said: "You can't do this. Once Zhang Xianzhong finds out that his identity is known, there is no guarantee that he will not escape Liting Town. This risk cannot be taken."
"Seeing Zhang Xianzhong roaming freely in Liting Town, and thinking of Captain Wu's tragic death, I really wanted to kill Zhang Xianzhong immediately." Wang Jian slammed his fist on the table.
Zeng Fukui, who was on the side, comforted him: "If you bear with me any longer, I believe that the higher-ups will definitely take action if they know the whereabouts of Zhang Xianzhong. You and I must not ruin the arrangements above because of our own impulses in the past few days."
He had already sent out the news about Zhang Xianzhong in Liting Town, Jiezhou.
He knew that what he and Wang Jian had to do now was to wait for the arrangements from above.
Wang Jian raised his head and looked at Zeng Fukui and said: "Brother Fukui, don't worry, I know the seriousness of the matter and I will definitely not cause trouble for Zhang Xianzhong at this time."
"That's good, you don't go anywhere these days, just stay here with me. It's easy to hide if anything happens." Zeng Fukui said to Wang Jian.
Because Wang Jian is a foreigner, it is not appropriate to appear in public often, especially with Zhang Xianzhong. No one can guarantee whether Zhang Xianzhong still remembers Wang Jian.
The matter of how to deal with the leaders within the Liting Town rebels soon came to an end. Except for a few of Li Li's cronies, most of the rebels did not change much, except for the replacement of a leader.
For many ordinary rebels, as long as they can eat and not starve to death, they don't care who becomes the leader.
Zeng Fukui has been living in seclusion these days. Even if he goes out, he only uses Wang Changming's relationship to find out how long the rebels will stay in Liting Town.
The biggest characteristic of rogue bandits is that they move around and rarely stay in one place for a long time. One is because of food problems, and the other is because of the suppression by officers and soldiers.
Now all the state capitals in Shaanxi are in chaos, with rebels everywhere. There are not many soldiers and horses in Jiezhou, and they are all used to defend Jiezhou City. As for the rebel army government here in Liting Town, they are unable to take care of it, so the rebels are in Liting Town. Safety here in Ting Town is guaranteed.
Bang!
Zeng Fukui, who came back from outside, closed his door and walked to the east room with his hands in his hands.
"How is the situation?" Wang Jian asked.
There were several men in the room who all looked at Zeng Fukui. These men were all field personnel of the Foreign Intelligence Agency and specialized in carrying out a series of assassination activities.
At this time, three days had passed since Wang Changming went to have a drink with Zeng Fukui.
Zeng Fukui sat down on the kang and said, "I'm afraid Zhang Xianzhong will have to leave from Liting Town."
"Is the news accurate?" Wang Jian asked hurriedly.
Zeng Fukui said: "I asked Wang Changming, and he said that Zhang Xianzhong asked the rebel leaders to take people to collect food, but the food harvested by the rebels in Liting Town was enough for the rebels to eat for more than a month. Except for what the rebels wanted Away, I can’t think of any other reason to need to collect food.”
"Is it going to attack Jiezhou City?" the man leading the team in the field asked.
Zeng Fukui frowned and thought for a while, then said: "No, if they go to attack Jiezhou, they don't need to collect food at all. As long as they capture Jiezhou City, all the official warehouses in the city belong to the rebels, so I think Zhang Xianzhong not only won't To attack Jiezhou City, it is very likely that the rebels will have to leave Jiezhou City and even travel a long distance, otherwise they would not be so short of food."
"Can you confirm when he will leave?" Wang Jian asked.
Zeng Fukui shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, it could be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, but one thing is certain, I will definitely not stay in Liting Town for too long."
