ps: Thank you book friends for how I can do my best, but I just want to support my monthly ticket with confidence.

Ouyang Ke said laughably: "Not half, Tianlang, you are right. The Japanese pirates only sent a few people to bluff outside the city, waving a few torches. Their main force secretly went south after Dongfang Kuang went up to the city."

Pei Wenyuan let out a long sigh: "Tianlang, you are such a clever idea. You let the defenders in the city gather at the South Gate early in the morning, but how could you judge that Shangquan Xinzhi would not divide his troops to attack the West Gate and the North Gate?"

Li Cangxing said seriously: "Shangquan Xinzhi in the north is afraid to go. General Qi's troops will come from Huajie at any time. He dare not take the risk of being attacked by the enemy from both sides. The west gate is too far away and there is a deep trench outside the gate, so he cannot attack. Now he knows that all the party members have retreated, and the demon sect Leng Tianxiong was also ambushed in the city and cannot take advantage of it. If he divides his troops again, he is afraid that even the time Leng Tianxiong has won him, so he will definitely concentrate his efforts to attack the city at the south gate."

A look of nervousness flashed across Qian Guanglai's face: "We fought here too fiercely just now, and I don't know how the battle is going on at Nanmen. Since the battle here has been completed, let's go to Nanmen to help. Chen Guerrill has too few troops, only more than a thousand people, so I'm afraid I can't stand it."

Li Cangxing laughed: "You guys, you were just busy fighting, but didn't pay attention to the movements at the North Gate. General Qi's troops had already entered the city just when we were fighting with the Demon Cultists just now."

Qian Guanglai's face changed and he opened his eyes widened: "What, General Qi has entered the city? Why don't we know?"

Li Cangxing smiled and said, "You are fighting too fiercely. This Taizhou City is not small, so it is normal for him to not know. If Shangquan Xinzhi had already broken through the South Gate, the sound of killing would have been shocked by the sky. The city is so peaceful now, it should be that the Japanese pirates could not conquer the city and had already withdrawn."

Pei Wenyuan let out a long sigh: "It's finally over. Tianlang, are we going to chase Shinji Shangquan?"

A cold light flashed in Li Cangxing's eyes: "This is a sure thing. This time we are going to capture this thief. With this witness, the fact that Yan Shifan colluded with Japanese pirates will be exposed to the world. At that time, we will report this matter through the ministers of the Qingliu School and write a letter to impeach Yan Dang."

Pei Wenyuan smiled and said, "Tianlang, I'm afraid that the ministers of the Qingliu school cannot count on it either. Just like Lu Bing could not count on it back then, they did not dare to turn against Yan Song and his son as enemies."

Li Cangxing smiled slightly: "Wenyuan. You are wrong. An old Qingliu minister like Xu Jie may be content with the status quo, but a new force like Zhang Juzheng who is eager to get on the throne will not give up this opportunity. Let's talk about it later. Everyone will have to work harder. The whole team will go to the South Gate and General Qi will arrange the pursuit. I will discuss the next combat plan with General Qi now. See you later."

Pei Wenyuan and others were used to Li Cangxing's actions, and were afraid of the post-war handling and military merits, which also needed key negotiations, so they all smiled and said goodbye to Li Cangxing, and turned around and began to regain their respective troops.

Li Cangxing turned around and his figure soon disappeared into the dark streets.

After walking through six or seven alleys, Li Cangxing turned into an inconspicuous courtyard. This was a top yard with no other rooms around. It looked ordinary outside, with only a large elm tree standing in front of the courtyard, which is considered an iconic building.

Li Cangxing gently pushed the door open and entered. A man stood in the courtyard, with his back facing him, with his hands behind his back. The moonlight was bright and scattered under her frosty and snow-like white hair, which was particularly charming and attractive. She turned her head and a beautiful pear nest appeared on the corner of her mouth: "You are here."

Li Cangxing smiled slightly and said, "Caifeng, I have learned a new way to transmit voice secrets. You can use secret words without touching your body. Do you want to learn?"

Qu Caifeng blinked her beautiful big eyes: "But it was Lu Bing who taught you again? Let's listen."

Li Cangxing told Qu Caifeng the method of transmitting the voice secret. Qu Caifeng was extremely talented and intelligent, and he used to know how to vibrate the pleura and make sounds. This time he only tried it a little and learned it.

Li Cangxing changed his luck method, so that even if Lu Bing was on his side, he could not hear secret words like Qu Caifeng. He smiled and said, "Caifeng, I didn't expect you to learn it so soon, which is really beyond my expectations."

Qu Caifeng smiled slightly: "This is not difficult. Are you going to teach me this today? Are you afraid that Lu Bing or the black robe, or Leng Tianxiong will eavesdrop on the side?"

Li Cangxing nodded: "When I came, I deliberately turned a few more alleys and paid attention to the back. I was sure that no one followed me, but I was not afraid of ten thousand, but I was afraid that if I was afraid, it would be better to be careful. Caifeng, thank you for helping me defend the city this time. If your brothers had not helped Chen Dacheng at the South Gate, I was afraid that the Japanese pirates would have attacked the city with all their might, and they would not have been able to stop it."

Qu Caifeng shook his head: "This is what I should do. The Japanese pirates invade. Even if you don't say you want me to come out to help, as long as I hear this news, I will lead my subordinates from Zhejiang and Fujian to protect the people. The most shameful thing about our Green Forest Village is the invasion of foreign races and harming the people, and we will never sit idly by."

Li Cangxing said seriously: "How is the battle situation at the South Gate?"

Qu Caifeng brushed her hair casually, with a unique charm: "My two thousand brothers ambushed in this Taizhou city early in the morning. This is also what you have planned long ago. We have changed into Ming army clothes these days and patrolled the city with Chen Dacheng. When you entered the city in the afternoon, Chen Dacheng and our people had all gathered at the South Gate. Just now, your East Gate and the Demon Cult were fighting, and Shangquan Xinzhi wanted to take the opportunity to sneak attack the South Gate, but we followed your plan, beat the drums and raised the fire, and shouted loudly. Seeing that we were so powerful that we did not dare to attack the city, he slipped away directly."

President Li Cang breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was chatting and laughing at Pei Wenyuan and others, the Japanese pirates were fierce and cruel. Moreover, Shangquan Xinzhi was determined to win this time. He forced him to attack the city regardless of siege. At least he would cause huge casualties to Qu Caifeng's subordinates. After the destruction of Wushan Sect, Qu Caifeng had been traveling all over the south of the Yangtze River for more than half a year and contacted his old subordinates, but only more than 2,000 people have been gathered so far. If the casualties in this battle were too great, I am afraid that I would not be able to rebuild the Wushan Sect in the future.

Li Cangxing smiled and said, "This is probably the best ending. To be honest, I don't want you to lose too much this time, which will affect your future development. Caifeng, you are willing to pretend to be an official army this time, I really want to thank you."

There was a hint of sadness in Qu Caifeng's eyes. She sighed softly and said secretly: "Cangxing, do you know? I have never forgotten the night when the Wushan Sect was destroyed in the past three years. I woke up from nightmare countless times. If it weren't for your plea, I would have died. I wouldn't have let my brothers wear that dog skin."

Li Cangxing also felt a sense of apology in his heart. He lowered his head and said, "Caifeng, I feel wronged, thank you."

Qu Caifeng raised her head, her expression returned to normal, and waved her hand: "Forget it, not to mention this, General Qi is still a good person, and his subordinates are always honest and loyal people. This time he killed the thieves for the country, and I should also help him. Besides, the main ones who destroyed my Wushan Sect were Yan Shifan and the people from the Dongting Gang, and I can't count this revenge on ordinary officials. But in the future, I still don't want to wear this Ming army's skin, and my brothers will not be willing. Cangxing, this time I will treat you as a favor, and don't mention it again in the future."

Li Cangxing nodded: "I am so grateful that you can help me this time. Now your brothers should have switched defenses with Qi Jiguang's troops. They should have entered the city half an hour ago."

Qu Caifeng's lips curled: "After the Japanese pirates retreated, our people retreated from the city. According to the original agreement with you, we left the city from the north gate and met Qi Jiguang's subordinates on the way, which was considered a change of defense. Cangxing, you should discuss with General Qi about pursuing Japanese pirates now, instead of wasting time with me here."

Li Cangxing smiled slightly: "My subordinates have been taken by Fatty and Wen Yuan to meet with General Qi. I am here to discuss with you if I have something to do."

A hint of joy flashed across Qu Caifeng's face, and his eyes were circulating in his beautiful eyes: "Oh, just say anything if you have something to do, don't be so hesitant to me."

Li Cangxing nodded: "I had a big battle with the Demon Cult just now. I did not destroy the leader of the Demon Cult in one fell swoop as planned. Finally, I reached an agreement with Leng Tianxiong to make a ceasefire and truce within three years."

Qu Caifeng sighed softly: "Leng Tianxiong is a generation of overlords. It is not easy to completely eliminate him once. Although your plan is thorough, I was not optimistic about it from the beginning. And I always wanted to bring someone to help you personally, but you always refused."

Li Cangxing waved his hand: "Caifeng, I don't expect to destroy the Demon Cult this time. Even if you are willing to help me, the result will be almost the same. I can destroy his General Altar Guard today, and may even kill or seriously injure Shangguan Wu and Situ Jiao, but it is very difficult to kill or injure Leng Tianxiong. If you show up today, the undercover Demon Cult will be completely exposed. Next, Leng Tianxiong will definitely do his best to deal with you. This will be of no benefit to you, so I did not let you participate in my battle with Leng Tianxiong this time. Besides, I am the one who has a grudge against Leng Tianxiong, and you have no deep blood hatred with him."

Qu Caifeng gritted his teeth and said, "I destroyed my Wushan Sect back then, and Leng Tianxiong also sent someone to help the war. I and him are not without any grudges or grudges. Besides, with his relationship with Yan Shifan, I will definitely not be able to avoid him in the future. Instead of letting them join forces in the future, it is better to destroy the Demon Sect first and cut off Yan Thief's arm."

Li Cangxing smiled slightly: "In my opinion, Yan Shifan and Leng Tianxiong are just having different dreams and using each other. This time Leng Tianxiong is willing to lead the crowd to participate in the battle of Taizhou. The purpose is probably not for that little spoil, but to develop their own power in Zhejiang and Fujian, and establish a branch here in the future."

"If this is not the case, Leng Tianxiong only needs to send Lin Zhenyi to bring hundreds of troops to do it, but this time they are all elites, obviously not just to help Quan Xin with a little help. If I expected it, they want to establish branches in these two coastal provinces, intervene in overseas trade in the future, and even recruit fierce Oriental swordsmen and Flang Jimen who are skilled in firearms."

Qu Caifeng smiled: "Leng Tianxiong is a person who can't get up early without profit. He is all about fighting for the world of power. You have made a complete analysis. I am recruiting me to join him and re-summon old subordinates in seven provinces in Jiangnan. I am afraid that it is a bargaining chip for him to restrain Yan Shifan and attract his attention, so as to create opportunities for his own expansion. Cangxing. What agreement did you reach with Leng Tianxiong today? Also, based on your judgment, will Leng Tianxiong be a black robe?"

Li Cangxing shook his head thoughtfully: "Leng Tianxiong made an agreement with me today that he would not attack us within three years, and in these three years, his power would not be able to enter the five provinces of Zhejiang, Fujian, Nanzhili, Jiangxi and Guangdong."

Qu Caifeng said suspiciously: "He agreed to this condition too? It seems that he is forced to you very hard today. Even the Guangdong Province that he has always occupied will withdraw?"

Li Cangxing smiled and said, "Guangdong is the territory I have fought for for you. I will never give in to this point."

Qu Caifeng's beautiful eyes blinked: "Why? Do you intend to let me go to Guangdong?"

Li Cangxing said seriously: "Well, Leng Tianxiong wants you to go to Huguang to compete with the Dongting Gang for the original Wushan Sect headquarters. Don't be fooled by him in this matter. With your current strength, going to Huguang Province to conflict with the powerful Dongting Gang, which is a powerful Dongting Gang, is just a dead end."

"Among other provinces in the southeast, Jiangxi Province is a force of the Taiyi Cult. It is also a base used by Lu Bing to monitor the south. If you want to go to Jiangxi, you will undoubtedly have a head-on conflict with Lu Bing, not to do so."

"Nan Zhili was the southern capital of the Ming Dynasty. It was a key prevention place. There were few mountain villages and green forests there. If you force yourself to gain a foothold there, you may be surrounded by heavy troops from the government, which is not feasible."

Qu Caifeng smiled slightly: "Zhejiang and Fujian provinces are the places where you are preparing to develop your own power after destroying the Japanese pirates this time, so you don't want me to come and compete with you for territory. Right?"

Li Cangxing shook his head: "From my heart, I really hope you can help me, but Caifeng, you must know that if I want to come back this time, at least I will defeat the Demon Cult and the Yan father and son. It is very likely that in this process, I will have conflicts with the foolish emperor and the Jinyiwei, and in the end I will embark on the road of uprising. I don't want to implicate you in this matter."

Qu Caifeng shook her head firmly: "Cangxing, why do you always meet me so much? When I was in Wushan, I said that if you want to raise troops and seize the throne of the tyrant monarch, I will definitely help you with all my strength, and for nothing else. Even if you make me go to Guangdong, if you raise troops, I will definitely raise the flag to respond."

Li Cangxing felt a little moved, and his expression became serious: "It is precisely because of this that we cannot be together in the development stage. Guangdong has always been a place where the imperial court rule is weak, and there are many people, Dong and Yue people. If you develop in Guangdong, you can avoid the whirlpool center of the whirlpool competition for hegemony. Secondly, if the government wants to suppress you, it is afraid that it is powerless. Three years will be enough to restore 80% of the strength of the Wushan Sect back then."

Qu Caifeng smiled and said, "Do you still want me, the nominal Leng Tianxiong ally, to be in Guangdong Province, to separate your contact with the Demon Sect, so that you can buy time for your own development?"

Li Cangxing nodded: "It's because of this consideration. Our current strength is indeed insufficient. It is difficult to fight Leng Tianxiong in a comprehensive manner in the short term. Your only problem in Guangdong is that the Dongting Gang in Huguang Province in the north should attack you with all his might. But since you have formed a nominal alliance with the Demon Sect, you can ask Leng Tianxiong to send someone to help you. Leng Tianxiong is obviously even more unwilling to Guangdong fall into the hands of his mortal enemy Dongting Gang. You can sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, find ways to provoke the fight between the two sides, and take the opportunity to develop and strengthen yourself."

Qu Caifeng frowned: "It's just that Leng Tianxiong repeatedly persuaded me to retake the head of the Wushan Sect. I didn't object at that time. Now you have just reached an agreement with him to withdraw from Guangdong, so I will take over Guangdong. Is this too obvious?"

Li Cangxing shook his head: "This is why I want to discuss this matter with you today. We may not be able to meet each other for a while in the future, so major events must be decided today."

"You will first take these two or three thousand tribes to join the Demon Sect's people to feint attack the head of the Wushan Sect. The Dongting Gang's defense there is not too strict, and you should be able to capture it in one fell swoop."

"But Chu Tianshu learned that you had re-entered the world, he would definitely lead the main force to fight for it himself. Don't fight with him at that time. If you want to give up Wushan and evacuate towards the Guangdong area, I will pretend to open a branch in Guangdong at that time. After you come, we will pretend to be defeated. Or because there is something wrong in Zhejiang and Fujian, you need to shrink your strength and retreat, so that you can occupy the branch in Lingnan. This is natural, and Leng Tianxiong doesn't have much to say."

Qu Caifeng's eyes lit up: "It's really a good plan. Cangxing, you are really amazing. You think of all these things one by one. By the way, this time I attack Wushan, do you need to take the opportunity to take out the Taizu secret bag?"

A cold light flashed in Li Cangxing's eyes and he said decisively: "No. We do not have the strength to directly raise an army now. The reason why I fought for those three years was not to quit with Leng Tianxiong, but to make friends with generals from all over the country and spread our influence among the people. Only when the time is ripe, the people's hearts are available, and some military support can I take that step."

Qu Caifeng sighed softly: "Cangxing, you have made up your mind to overthrow the foolish lord."

Li Cangxing nodded: "I have not made up my mind yet. If the tyrant monarch does not come to stop me from revenge, I don't want to start this. After all, once the world is in chaos, I still don't know how many people proclaim themselves emperors or how many people are in trouble. Even if I want to raise an army, I have to be absolutely sure that the people in the world will not be trapped in the war for too long."
