Gaoyou, the former residence of Lu Yong.

Zhu Li was discussing the next plan with Yang Zaixing, Yan Keqiu, and Chen Gong, when suddenly a man in black appeared in the mansion. The man was very skilled and did not have any slightest sound when he entered the mansion.

However, as soon as he entered the mansion, he was noticed by Zhu Li and Yang Zaixing. Without waiting for Zhu Li to give orders, Yang Zaixing immediately raised his long sword and rushed out. When Zhu Li took Yan Keqiu and Chen Gong walked out of the hall, Yang Zaixing and the man in black had already fought in a group.

The person who came was wearing a black outfit and a ghost face. He was moving around and moving, and he used the tricks of the world, which was very strange.

The standard Tang sword in his hand was like a sport, and it was difficult to get in; even with Yang Zaixing's skills, he had never taken advantage of it at this time, and the two sides were equally matched and equally matched.

Seeing the familiar ghost face, Zhu Li didn't know who the person was, but she felt relieved and suddenly said, "Stop, I'm my own."

When the two heard this, they glanced at each other and stopped suddenly. When the man in black saw Zhu Li, he quickly took off his mask and bowed, and said in surprise: "General, you are really okay, you are so good. You are Jing Ming, pay homage to the general."

Seeing the man, Zhu Li was also very surprised: "Jing Ming, why have you become a ghost warrior?"

This person is nothing else, but Jing Ming, who was rescued by Zhu Li in Yiting City, and the filial man who cuts his flesh and feeds his mother.

When he saw Zhu Li asking, Jing Ming smiled and said embarrassedly: "General Zhou had tested his subordinates' martial arts in the morning. He said that he could not use his subordinates' talents on the battlefield. As soon as he returned to Shuozhou, he recommended his subordinates to Mr. Guo, so his subordinates became ghost warriors."

"So that's it." Zhu Li suddenly realized that he knew the reason why Zhou Dewei did this just as he saw Jing Ming take action.

After telling his own story, Jing Ming said again: "Mr. Guo is very worried about the general. After seeing the letters brought by General Yue Pengju, he immediately sent his subordinates and others to come to support the general."

"Well, so, you are not the only one who comes?" Zhu Li said curiously.

When Jing Ming saw the inquiry, he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly said, "Yes, General, we are divided into three groups. We headed south to Xichuan. When the gentleman heard that the general might be going west, he sent all the troops to sneak into Sichuan and Shu to support him. He made great efforts to reach Xu and Yang, active in the coastal areas, trying to confuse the enemy and cover the general."

"Along the way, my subordinates hiding, sneaking into Yangzhou, trying to find the general, and want to guard the general to the death. Fortunately, my subordinates are lucky to meet the general here." Jing Ming looked very excited and explained the whole story of coming here calmly.

When Zhu Li heard this, she understood Guo Qizuo's intention. She felt very moved and looked at Jing Ming and said, "How many people have you come along the way? Can you contact them?"

"Report to the general, there are a whole team of people, plus a total of 53 people, the subordinates are team commanders, two deputy teams, and the Five Fire Ghost Warriors. If the general gives orders, they can go out immediately." Jing Ming looked at Zhu Li and said confidently.

In Jing Ming's eyes, Zhu Li was his benefactor and his good lord. Although he did not participate in the bloody battle between Weiqiao, he would always hear his comrades mentioning him, and he would be very excited and angry.

It is precisely because of the bloody battle between Weiqiao and Zhu Li's death and the performance of the rear end of the Shuozhou Army that the current Shuozhou Army is extremely cohesive.

Although the ghost warrior is a secret guard, he wants to get Guo Qizuo

To select elite soldiers and to come south to support Zhu Li, everyone was rushing to the top. Jing Ming also won the job after several battles and luckily defeated dozens of ghost warriors teams.

Yan Keqiu looked at Jing Ming, looking at the man with clear eyes and square face, and his sincere respect when facing Zhu Li had a feeling of excitement.

How the general treats his subordinates, what kind of loyalty will burst out with his subordinates. Except for Yang Zaixing and Chen Gong, this is the first time Yan Keqiu has seen Zhu Li's soldiers. Jing Ming's expression of being prepared to die for the general at any time and anywhere made him inexplicably amazed.

He was willing to fight for the first time and fought for the first place. This was a look he had never seen in the Yangzhou army, and it also made him feel more confident in his choice.

"General, now we have manpower, and some of the things we plan can be done." After looking at Jing Ming in a daze for a while, Yan Keqiu had a sudden inspiration and immediately spoke to Zhu Li in a low voice.

Zhu Li glanced at him in confusion, ignored him for the time being, and said to Jing Ming: "It's good to come, but you're here unfortunately. The situation is a bit bad now. Let the brothers hide it. Safety is the most important thing."

"No" Jing Ming's eyes circulated, as if he was inexplicably grateful, and immediately responded without hesitation.

"Zaixing, please accompany Jing Ming to wander around the mansion and introduce him to the current situation and let him understand the situation as soon as possible." Zhu Li turned to Yang Zaixing and instructed seriously.

"I promise, don't worry, I will definitely treat Brother Jing Ming well." Yang Zaixing didn't expect that someone who was so capable of fighting came, so he was naturally very happy and hurriedly promised.

Looking at Yang Zaixing's unfulfilled expression, Zhu Li could not know what the other party was thinking. However, as a general, competing with each other can promote improvement, and he is unwilling to worry about it.

Turning around, Zhu Li looked at Yan Keqiu and whispered: "What can I do now? Mr., can you get a share of the turmoil in Yangzhou?"

"The general is wise and wants to get a share of the pie, otherwise, he will give those martial artists a bargain." Yan Keqiu said calmly.

Zhu Li glanced at him suspiciously and walked into the living room first.

Yan Keqiu followed closely behind and came to the hall. After the two sat down one after another, Yan Keqiu bowed: "Last time, his subordinates suggested that the general force Bi Shiduo to rebel. Once the rebellion was successful, Yangzhou would inevitably change its masters. However, these warriors were not good masters of Yangzhou. If the wealth that Gao Pian had plundered for several years fell into their hands, it would be a waste of resources."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Li nodded and said in confusion: "I don't know what good ideas do you have?"

"If General Bi Shiduo rebelled, if things were accomplished, with their nature, they would definitely not return the government to Gao Pian."

"Besides, these martial artists are not good people in the management of the local government. If they are allowed to do whatever they want, it is difficult to guarantee that the people of Yangzhou will be trapped in dire straits." Yan Keqiu was full of worries. After all, he was half a Yangzhou native. If he could, who wouldn't want to help his hometown? Now the opportunity is right in front of him, so he naturally did not want to let it go and continued: "Looking at the entire Yangzhou, only two people can ensure the stability of Yangzhou."

"Well, who are the two people sir?"

"One is Liang Zhang. Liang Zhang fought against Gao Pian in the east and west, and he made great achievements in military achievements. He is in great responsibility, both in the hearts of the people of Yangzhou and in the eyes of military guards."

"Besides, Liang Zhang is not a martial artist. He is also a virtuous official from Han Zhong, and is the best candidate to govern the local area and control Yangzhou. The only downside is that this person is a barbarian of the Western Rong, but I don't know if he will take the people of the Central Plains to heart." Yan Keqiu frowned slightly and explained seriously.

When Zhu Li heard this, her expression was calm and seemed to be considering it.

"The second person is Yang Xingmi. Yang Xingmi is a good talent. From the fact that he manages Luzhou in an orderly manner, we can see that this person is extraordinary. But after all, he is a new high in the army. It is easy to say that the people are willing to control Yangzhou, but in the army, there must be many people who do not accept him. If a riot occurs because of disobedience, Yangzhou will still not avoid military disasters."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Li frowned and blurted out: "Since both of them have their own advantages and disadvantages, how are you going?"

Yan Keqiu heard this and said solemnly: "It depends on how Liang Zhang performed in this incident."

“How to say it?”

"If Bi Shiduo's troops surrounded Jiangdu and Liang Zhang rushed to support Gao Pian, it means that this person is more loyal and has no clarity in the righteousness and is unavailable; if he rushed to support Bi Shiduo and forced Lu Yongzhi to kill it, it means that this person is the first to be righteous. It is not necessary to let him control Yangzhou." Yan Keqiu talked freely and made a sound.

When Zhu Li heard this, she suddenly thought of Liang Zhang in history. It seemed that this guy had never moved from beginning to end, so she curiously said, "What if Liang Zhang didn't even bother from beginning to end?"

Zhu Li's problem made Yan Keqiu stunned, and then laughed loudly: "Haha, General, he let it go, so what else can we hope for him? Naturally, there is no need to consider him anymore."

Zhu Li nodded and continued to ask, "If Liang Zhang doesn't work, are you going to help Yang Xingmi get to power?"

"The general is wise, but it may not be easy for Yang Xingmi to take office." Yan Keqiu said with a little concern.

"Are you afraid that he can't hold the towns and generals in the place?"

Yan Keqiu nodded and said helplessly: "Yang Xingmi is a hero, but after all, his foundation is too shallow, the people are not worthy of their expectations, and the military power is not obvious. How can he convince the public?"

"What do you want?"

Yan Keqiu did not answer this question immediately, but pondered for a while and said cautiously: "To be on the safe side, you may have to bother the general to take a walk."

"If the Yangzhou issue can be solved, Zhu doesn't mind going on, just say it bluntly." Zhu Li promised immediately.

Yan Ke asked Zhu Li to agree and hurriedly said, "General can help Bi Shiduo take down Jiangdu. Let's see the reactions of all parties. If Liang Zhang rushes to Bi Shiduo and force Lu Yongzhi to kill, we naturally don't have to worry about the follow-up. Just support Liang Zhang to take the lead; if otherwise, the general might as well take the opportunity to get rid of a few people who are most threatening, such as Qin Yan, Dong Jin, Gao Ze and others."

“Are these unstable factors?”

“That’s right.”

"Why is the sir so sure that Qin Yan will definitely go to Jiangdu? He is free and easy in Xuanzhou, so why should he come to this muddy water?" Zhu Li was puzzled.
