Looking at the calm and composed Li Mi in front of him, Wang Shichong narrowed his eyes, with a hint of caution on his face. Since the destruction of Wagang Village, Li Mi first led the Pushan Battalion to circle around Henan. Since Wang Shichong went north, he and Wan After Henan was divided by Heping, Li Mi disappeared without a trace. He didn't expect that he would come here today and announce his name so blatantly at the city gate. Wang Shichong believed that it won't be long before all the major forces in the world You will know that Li Mi came to his side, Wang Shichong.
Wang Shichong felt very unhappy. Of course he understood the reason why Li Mi did this. In this way, Wang Shichong would have to bear the charge of being a bandit. Even if Wang Shichong killed Li Mi now, Wan He and Li Yuan would The gang members were not vegetarians, so they still poured dirty water on Wang Shichong. Even if Wang Shichong had mouths all over his body, it was hard to explain. Staring at Li Mi closely, Wang Shichong couldn't help but snorted and said: " Pu Shanggong came to Xingyang this time, but I don’t know what he is doing.” Although Wang Shichong wanted to kill Li Mi now, there was no intention of betrayal in his words.
"Haha, why should the prince be so polite? No matter what," after saying this, Li Mi suddenly paused, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, showed an intriguing smile, and said: "No matter what, the prince and I are old acquaintances. Yes, isn't it?"
Wang Shichong's cheeks twitched, and he naturally understood what Li Mi meant. For his own plan, Wang Shichong and Li Mi had secretly cooperated. Li Mi used the army in Wagang Village to eliminate one opponent after another for Wang Shichong, while Wang Shichong sent Masters from the Xiaoyao Sect trained Li Mi at the Pushan secret camp, but later Li Mi took control of Wagangzhai and kicked Wang Shichong away. Now Li Mi is bringing up the past again. To put it nicely, that's because He wanted to cooperate with Wang Shichong again, and to put it bluntly, he wanted Wang Shichong to help him.
Although Wang Shichong did not practice the profound martial arts of Xiaoyao Sect, at this moment, he had the urge to punch Li Mi to death. Of course, Wang Shichong would not do this. His city made him resist his inner impulse, but He slowly lowered his head, took a sip of tea, and hummed unhurriedly: "Oh, really, this is the first time Pu Shanggong and I have met."
Wang Shichong would never admit that he and Li Mi were acquainted. Li Mi's identity was not only a bandit leader, but also one of the masterminds of Yang Xuangan's rebellion. Wang Shichong's current identity was that of King Zheng of the Sui Dynasty. How could he be like this with Li Mi? Li Mi just smiled faintly at Wang Shichong's attempt to cover up his remarks, but instead squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, with 60,000 Jianghuai soldiers, is trapped in this small Xingyang, I really feel a little aggrieved for the prince. Doesn’t the prince not want to break through the shackles and become a dragon?"
Li Mi's words were so tempting that even Wang Shichong's palace was a little moved. However, Wang Shichong was an old fox after all. He quickly calmed down his mind, narrowed his eyes, and said to Li Mi: "What Pu Shangong said What does it mean, but I don’t understand it,”
Seeing Wang Shichong pretending to be stupid, Li Mi also sneered secretly and said with a smile: "Now Luoyang has become an iron bucket. Wan He has trained 160,000 soldiers and horses, plus Wan He has enough food, grass and armor. , and with the help of generals such as Li Jing and Qin Qiong, when these 160,000 troops are trained, I'm afraid the prince will not be Wanhe's opponent."
Li Mi's words hit Wang Shichong's Achilles' heel. In terms of troops and horses, Wang Shichong, who had 60,000 Jianghuai soldiers in his hands, was not afraid of Wanhe at all. However, food and grass were a big problem that restricted Wang Shichong. This was why Wang Shichong had been trapped in The main reason why Xingyang did not dare to expand its strength was that Li Yuan got Yongfeng Cang and Wan He got Luokou Cang. They all had sufficient food on hand, but Wang Shichong only had the military rations brought from Jiangdu and Xingyang. The little food that had been saved could only barely maintain the supply of Wang Shichong's current army. Now Wang Shichong was also having a headache about this matter.
Seeing that Wang Shichong was silent, Li Mi also knew that Wang Shichong had been persuaded by him. Then, Li Mi said again: "Now that the situation in the world has become more and more intense, the prince is also a person with great ambitions. Could it be that he wants to stay trapped all the time?" Sitting here in this little Xingyang, waiting for death,"
Wang Shichong's heart skipped a beat again. He raised his head and looked at Li Mi. His face did not show any emotion at Li Mi's words. Instead, he stared at Li Mi closely and suddenly said: "Li Mi, let's be honest. What do you want?" What to do,"
As he spoke, Wang Shichong waved his arms, and then he heard bursts of sound breaking through the air outside the study. Several men in black robes behind Li Mi made some movements, but Li Mi himself sat there motionless. Although I don’t know Wang Shichong’s identity in Xiaoyao Sect, I also know that Wang Shichong has a close relationship with those martial arts masters who come and go. The movement just now should be those Xiaoyao Sect masters setting up defenses outside the study to prevent anyone from When people approached, Wang Shichong was about to open the skylight and speak frankly. Immediately, Li Mi stopped pretending, and the indifferent smile on his face disappeared. Then, with a gloomy face, he said to Wang Shichong: "Your Majesty, please tell me clearly. Now There is only one way out before you, take advantage of Wanhe before he becomes stronger and attack Luoyang."
"Oh," Wang Shichong didn't rush to continue. He knew very well that the person Li Mi hated the most was Wan He. If Wan He hadn't defended Luoyang, Li Mi's original plan to capture Luoyang would have succeeded. Five hundred thousand troops joined the army. With the endless supply of food and grass, it is very likely that Li Mi could achieve great things, but it was Wan He who stubbornly defended Luoyang. In the end, Li Mi's plan failed, and he ended up with the fate of the lost dog. Wang Shichong saw through Li Mi's thoughts, and it was nothing more than this. Wanting to trick him into fighting Wan He head-on, Wang Shichong naturally would not fall for this trick. He snorted coldly and said: "Li Mi, you don't tell lies in front of a real person. You want me to fight Wan He and avenge you. But what good do I do? You said it yourself just now. Wan He has an army of 160,000 men, and there are many fierce generals to assist me. I can protect myself with just a few soldiers and horses. If I can use them to attack Luoyang, it will be no different than committing suicide. ,"
This study is at the deepest part of Wang Shichong's house, and it is guarded by experts from Xiaoyao Sect. There is no need to worry about others eavesdropping. Therefore, Wang Shichong is no longer as hypocritical as before, and directly exposed Li Mi's intentions, and Li Mi He was not annoyed and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, strike first and then be controlled by others. If you don't take action now, it will be too late when Wanhe is ready."
Wang Shichong fell silent. Regardless of Li Mi's intentions, what he said was correct, but this matter was not that simple. It didn't mean that you could fight if you wanted to. Wang Shichong shook his head and said, "You don't need to say anything. , Even if I am willing to attack Luoyang, with my current strength, I am no match for Wanhe, and I will only end up with a disastrous defeat."
"Hahahaha." After hearing Wang Shichong's words, Li Mi smiled up to the sky, and finally shook his head and said: "Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, the heroic King Zheng has now become timid. There are so many heroes in Xiaoyaomen, but only I’m afraid I’ll just sit back and wait for death with King Zheng,”
When Li Mi said these words, Wang Shichong was neither angry nor annoyed. He just stood up slowly and suddenly reached out and clapped his hands twice. As the two applauses rang out, a roaring sound was heard in the air. Five or six men in powerful robes broke into the study directly. These men held various weapons in their hands, all pointing at Li Mi and the men in black robes behind him. In the eyes of these men, Shooting out streams of light, they were all masters with profound internal skills. A trace of ferocity flashed across Wang Shichong's face, and he hummed: "Li Mi, no matter what you say, I will never be fooled by you. Now, Only by borrowing your head can we not stop everyone's mouth, but at least we can save the situation."
As Wang Shichong said this, all those men took a step forward with their weapons in hand. Looking at Li Mi, he was still sitting on the chair. The sudden appearance of these masters did not make him appear panicked. Behind him, , several men in black robes also immediately raised their weapons and guarded around Li Mi, and the hoods on their heads also fell down with this movement. Among them was Wang Bodang, the bodyguard beside Li Mi. There was another person, holding two swords, looking around with a vigilant expression. It turned out to be the fierce general Xu Shiji of Wagang. In addition to these two people, there was another person with a beard, holding a big sword, facing the enemy with his head held high, and there was no trace on his face. Not the slightest hint of fear.
Li Mi laughed again and laughed for a moment. Li Mi glanced at the approaching Xiaoyao Sect masters, raised the corners of his mouth, shook his head and said: "Prince Zheng, oh Prince Zheng, if I were you, I wouldn't do this. , if I die, Prince Zheng, you will really be trapped in an isolated and helpless situation waiting to die,"
"Wait a minute," just when those masters were about to take action, Wang Shichong suddenly raised his eyebrows and shouted loudly, then stared at Li Mi closely. Although he had already made plans to kill Li Mi, but what Li Mi had just done What he said made Wang Shichong a little worried, so he stopped his men with words, then stared closely at Li Mi, who was not panicked at all, and asked in a deep voice: "Li Mi, what do you mean by this?"
"King Zheng, don't be in a hurry. Let me introduce a new friend to King Zheng." Li Mi slowly stood up, turned sideways, pointed at the bearded man in black robe Shen Hou, and said with a smile: "This general, It is none other than the most powerful general under Xia King Dou Jiande, General Wang Fubao."
