Huang Ying's face turned red with embarrassment, and she said softly: "Dad, you are so disrespectful, I won't tell you anymore!" After that, she stamped her feet and turned around to leave.

Cao Shihong looked at Huang Ying's leaving figure with a smile and said: "Girls are not allowed to stay in college, and Ying'er is not young anymore. You can't delay Ying'er's marriage for the sake of such a big thing!"

Huang Chao smiled and said: "You are anxious, and I am anxious too! But this is a big matter, so you can't be too hasty. You have to wait until you have some free time to handle it calmly, right? You can't let me marry off my daughter hastily, right? In that case, how can they do it?

Don’t you want to laugh at me, Huang Chao, for neglecting my daughter?”

Huang Chao's son Huang Ding laughed at the side and said: "Then dad is so reluctant to let my sister get married, isn't he afraid that my sister will secretly run away with the third brother one day?"

Huang Chao glared, pretending to be angry and said: "Children, please don't interrupt when adults are talking! You are only a little kid, and you are just talking nonsense here!"

Huang Ding said aggrievedly: "I'm already eighteen years old, I'm not too young, right? A few days ago you said that when I grow up, it's time to find me a wife, right?"

After hearing Huang Ding's words, Huang Chao couldn't help but laugh out loud and said: "You little bastard, you are getting more and more ridiculous. I just said something casually, and you take it seriously? I let you practice every day, and you

Why don’t you take it to heart?”

Huang Ding was speechless, and said with a smile: "Dad, you are going too far this time. I may not be the right person to practice martial arts, and I may not be able to do it after a lifetime of training. You still have to

Let me practice piano, chess, calligraphy and painting more, and maybe one day I will become a great talent or something, ha..." After that, he turned and left.

Huang Chao spread his hands and said helplessly: "Look, what is going on! None of them are worry-free."

Cao Shihong said with a smile: "As a father, you are too old and disrespectful. How can your children be better off? As the saying goes, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked, haha..." At the end of the sentence, he couldn't help laughing.

stand up.

Just after midnight that night, Zhu Wen secretly marched towards Caishiji with his men and horses. This was not the first time Zhu Wen had done this kind of sneak attack. He also accumulated some experience and knew that large numbers of people may not be useful. The so-called

This is why soldiers are more valuable than more. So he only brought five hundred men, all of whom were elites in Zhu Wen's army.

Although their number is small, almost all of them have a new generation of "Zhentian Lei" newly developed by Wu Biao hanging on their waists. The main thing is to improve the fuse, and the original ignition fuse has been improved into a fuse that is close to the modern grenade.

It's the kind that can automatically ignite with just a pull.

After listening to Zhu Wen's detailed introduction, Wu Biao used the principle that friction between fire knives and flints can produce sparks, and tied small flints to the pull rope. After pulling the rope, the flints rubbed against the designed metal material to generate sparks, which ignited

Lead. This greatly improves the convenience of using "Zhentian Lei". Compared with modern hand grenades, the new generation of "Zhentian Lei" is almost the same in other aspects except that it is slightly less powerful.

With such weapons of mass destruction, in this era where cold weapons are respected, even if you want to walk sideways, no one can really stop you, not to mention these five hundred people actually took a thousand and two

It would be strange if hundreds of "shaking thunders" didn't frighten others!

Taking advantage of the cover of night, Zhu Wen's 500 men and horses opened the way in front. Ge Congzhou, Hu Zhen and others led a large group of men and horses to slowly advance from behind. Ge Congzhou and Hu Zhen could see the front from behind.

A burst of fire burst out, followed by a thunderous explosion. The explosions came one after another, making people dizzy and stinging with such strong light that they could hardly open their eyes.

Ge Congzhou was full of doubts, fear and admiration for Zhu Wen. He really couldn't understand how Zhu Wen could obtain such a powerful weapon. How could he be invincible with such an earth-shattering weapon on the battlefield?

Hu Zhen also looked at the fire in front of him with a smile, and thought to himself: "The third brother is still awesome, fighting behind such a person, it is even harder to win!"

At this moment, a bright fire suddenly rose into the sky with a long tail, and then exploded in the air, as bright as the stars in the sky. This was the signal Zhu Wen had agreed with Ge Congzhou and Hu Zhen in advance.

When people saw the signal, they gave an order: "Go ahead at full speed and kill!"

The rebels, who were already ready to go, rushed forward crazily. Someone had already lit the torch. From a distance, it looked like stars in the sky twinkling...

Bi Shiduo was defeated. In fact, he was not defeated on the battlefield, but was defeated by Zhu Wen's advanced firearm-"Zhentian Lei". In an era dominated by cold weapons, it could have such large-scale destructiveness

Weapons, it can be said, can basically do anything to bring harm.

Bi Shiduo sighed secretly and gave the order to retreat. The last line of defense was the port, but he had no intention of defending it. Since he knew he couldn't defend it, why let his soldiers die in vain?

Zhu Wen and others successfully occupied Caishiji, an important port on the south bank of the Yangtze River. The rebels crossed the Yangtze River from Caishiji overnight. However, due to the large number of rebels and limited ships, there were still 20,000 to 30,000 people who had not crossed the river at dawn.

The defenders of Hezhou and Chuzhou on the north bank of the Yangtze River fled without fighting, and the officials in the city had already disappeared. The rebels easily occupied Hezhou and Chuzhou. Shang Rang and Meng Kai respectively led troops to surround Tianchang (Tianchang City, Jiangsu).

Liuhe (today's Liuhe District, Nanjing City) is only more than a hundred miles away from Yangzhou where Gao Pian was in charge, but Gao Pian still didn't move at all.

What was Gao Pian doing at this time?

Let's talk about Bi Shiduo's defeated army returning to Yangzhou. Bi Shiduo wanted to see Gao Pian furiously, but was stopped by Lu Yongzhi. Lu Yongzhi said: "General Bi is not guarding the Yangtze River waterway in Caishiji, why did he come back to Yangzhou?"

Bi Shiduo looked down on Lu Yongzhi very much, but since Lu Yongzhi was well received by Gao Pian, Bi Shiduo did not want to offend him too much. Bi Shiduo said: "I have urgent military information to see Gao Dutong, please inform Master Lu."

Lu Yongzhi smiled and said: "If you have anything to do, you can just talk to Pindao. Now that the general is studying the way of heaven, how can he be in the mood to deal with these trivial worldly matters?"

Bi Shiduo was secretly angry and held back his anger and said: "Huang Chao's army has crossed the Yangtze River. Now Shang Rang and Meng Kai's troops have surrounded Tianchang and Liuhe. I am afraid that they will break the city in a few days. The bandits are only a hundred meters away from Yangzhou."

Yu Li, if Gao Dutong doesn't come up with a solution as soon as possible, I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous."

Lu Yongzhi sneered and said: "Commander Gao is a god with his troops. He has been on the battlefield for decades and has never been defeated. How can he care about a small Huang Chao? General Bi is Huang Chao's old subordinate. Why is he so active in dealing with Huang Chao this time?"

Or do you have any other ideas? Now that General Bi has lost Caishiji, Huang Chao was able to cross the river and go north, and now he comes here to pretend to be attentive, hum!"

Bi Shiduo's expression changed, he snorted coldly, and was about to rush in.

Lu Yongzhi stretched out his hand to block Bi Shiduo's way, and said coldly: "General Bi wants to break into the Jiedushi's private residence. I don't know what his intentions are? After all, General Bi is a reduced general. I have to protect Gao Dutong's safety."

For your own sake!”

Bi Shiduo said a few words from between his teeth, "How are you doing?"

Lu Yongzhi smiled and said: "What can I do to you, General Bi? I am just adhering to Gao Dutong's wishes and not letting anyone come in to disturb you. General Bi, please go back home first. I will report the general's words to Gao Dutong."

Everyone knows. General, please come!" After saying that, he made a sign of seeing off the guests without mercy.

Bi Shiduo snorted coldly, turned around and walked away, leaving only Lu Yongzhi alone at the door with a proud sneer.

Did Lu Yongzhi take the wrong medicine and dare to intercept such important military information for Gao Pian? In fact, it is not the case. Of course Lu Yongzhi did not take the wrong medicine, and Lu Yongzhi is still a very smart person. Moreover, this person is extremely ambitious.

He is big and has high martial arts skills. In this world, apart from his father Lu Dongbin, I am afraid he has not taken anyone else seriously, including Gao Pian.

Originally, Lu Yongzhi joined Gao Pian just to eat and drink, and he didn't think about what he could do. However, since Gao Pian recently practiced Lu Yongzhi's "original" internal skills, although he has not mastered it, he can.

Gao Pian was not discouraged at all, and he never slacked off for several months.

Since then, Huainan had no time to take care of many military affairs, so Gao Pian handed over some things to Lu Yongzhi one after another. Lu Yongzhi was naturally smart, and could learn anything at once. He also handed Gao Pian over to him.

As the tasks were carried out in an orderly manner, Gao Pian felt relieved, and then handed over more things to him. Lu Yongzhi's power also increased day by day.

Power and wealth are like opium to people. Before he has a lot of wealth and great power, he may not be very interested in such things. But once he has these,

Even if they only have it for a short time, they will fall madly in love with this kind of life with absolute power and wealth. Once they lose everything in their hands, they will feel very empty, lonely, and uncomfortable, just like an addiction.

A gentleman feels as uncomfortable as a drug addict.

Gao Pian went into retreat more and more often and for longer periods of time. Lu Yongzhi had almost become Gao Pian's spokesperson to the outside world. Almost all of Gao Pian's orders were conveyed through Lu Yongzhi. As time went by,

, Lu Yongzhi almost became the de facto military governor of Huainan, and many political orders throughout Huainan were issued from his mouth.

Now Gao Pian has become the commander of all the camps and the salt and iron transport envoy in the south of the Yangtze River. He has recruited 70,000 soldiers and horses a few days ago, but he is still obsessed with the illusory way of immortality. Lu Yongzhi's power

It has reached a new level, especially since he has control over the entire Jiangnan wealth, which makes the already extremely ambitious Lu Yongzhi's ambitions expand sharply again.

Lu Yongzhi is also the son of Lu Dongbin. Although Lu Dongbin is not a god, he is not comparable to ordinary people. He still has a very high level of grasp of astronomical calendar and world fortune. Although Lu Yongzhi only learned a little bit,

He also saw that the Tang Dynasty was rapidly declining, and its destruction was only a matter of time. Lu Yongzhi had the intention of using Gao Pian's power to conquer the world.

He thought that with the 100,000 troops currently under Gao Pian's command, although he might not be able to dominate the world, it would be more than enough to separate one side. In Lu Yongzhi's opinion, Gao Pian probably wouldn't have a few more years to live. At the right time, Lu Yong would
