Valley Emperor

The reason why Li Xuan said at this time that he wanted to go on a personal expedition was naturally not simple, but with many deep-seated purposes.

I want to take a look outside and observe this era more deeply. Another example is to take this opportunity to leave Huangzhu Mountain, get rid of Fang Dongquan and the others, and return to living incognito in normal society.

Also, I wanted to test whether Fang Dongquan and Liu Bagou were still as defensive about themselves as before.

The result is very obvious. Li Xuan just said that he was going to the outside of the mountain. They just couldn't wait to make themselves think twice. On the surface, they said that Li Xuan was a man of gold and could not be easily involved in danger, but they made it clear that they would not let Li Xuan. leave.

Maybe they really think so, like Liu Bagou, but in Li Xuan's view, they are trying to prevent him from leaving and get rid of them.

Thinking of this, Li Xuan's mood is naturally not that good.

Seeing everyone's unanimous opposition, Li Xuan didn't insist, because he knew that even insisting would be useless.

What he said just now was just a test. Since the test has revealed their attitude, then there is no need to insist on it in the follow-up.

On this matter, Fang Dongquan said again: "This time out of the mountain, the ministers and others will definitely do their best, and please wait for the good news of the ministers and others in the palace!"

Huang Xueren also picked up the conversation at the right time and said, "It can be half a month at most, or ten days at least. The minister will definitely return with food to report victory to His Majesty!"

Li Xuan's eyes swept over these people once again, his face has slowly eased from the previous icy cold, and after a while, he said: "The Qing family is full of confidence, I am very relieved, so I will wait for the good news in the palace. !"

Then he waved his hand again and said, "Okay, all the Qing families can go home and make arrangements. If you have nothing to do, let's go!"

I feel very relieved to say that it is, but this is just a step that Li Xuan found directly for himself. Although the steps are a bit steep, but Li Xuan, the emperor of the valley, has become the emperor of the valley. This road is not an ordinary road, naturally not. Will care whether the steps are steep or not, the big deal is falling to death.

After driving away these people outside, Li Xuan felt a little bored, so he didn't go back to the backyard, but went to the playground to watch his guards practice.

Although it was said that the last time they attacked Shuilongzhai, the Guards, who had high hopes for Li Xuan, did not fire a single shot and did not show any combat effectiveness, but Li Xuan did not give up his high hopes for the Guards.

Why?

The combat effectiveness of this Guard is a trivial matter. What’s more important is that this Guard is an army that he has personally trained, and the soldiers in it are all teenagers, which makes it easier to establish their self-confidence. loyalty.

Since Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren were still very guarded about themselves in the test just now, and they could not leave this place in a short time, Li Xuan also put his mind on other aspects, such as getting rid of the embarrassment of the current puppet emperor situation.

Among the 1,000 people in Huangzhu Mountain, there are more than 200 young men, and these two hundred young men basically listen to Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren, and even the guards around Li Xuan are from Fang Dongquan.

This kind of situation is unbearable for Li Xuan. Since you don't let Lao Tzu go, then Lao Tzu will take control of the real power. Then we have to see if you will regret today's decision.

The Guards are not only a trump card for him to use against officers and soldiers, but also a means to expand his right to speak in Huangzhu Mountain.

Especially in the current situation of Huangzhu Mountain, which cannot leave for a short time, the importance of the guards is even higher.

When Fang Dongquan and the others gathered young men and prepared to organize the battle of Fengjiazhuang, Li Xuan also quietly expanded the size of the guards.

Before, there were only twenty people in the Guards, but now Li Xuan has recruited about 20 teenagers to join the Guards.

Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren's actions were naturally seen by Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren, but the guards were all half-aged teenagers, and they were not among the young and strong bandits. In addition, the guards played in formation every day. , instead of cultivating personal martial arts, this kind of thing is just a young man's game in the eyes of everyone in Huang Zhushan.

Everyone thought Li Xuan was funny, so they didn't stop him. Instead, they watched Li Xuan direct some silly young people to line up on the playground every day with the mentality of watching a joke.

As long as the Guards did not prove themselves on the battlefield, Fang Dongquan and the others would not be able to look at the Guards squarely, especially when they attacked Shuilong Village last time, more than 20 people from the Guards ran away, let alone go into battle. After the war, they didn't even have their share of waving the flag and shouting, so it was impossible for everyone to have the same great hope for the Guards as Li Xuan.

No matter what other people think, Li Xuan has great expectations for these young men in the Guards.

Three days later, Fang Dongquan, Huang Xueren, Chen Tufu and the others officially set off with two hundred young and strong bandits. The two hundred bandits will divide their troops into two groups, and Fang Dongquan will lead them all the way. They will go out with great fanfare and then attract the attention of the officers and soldiers. And lead them away, it is best to lead them into the deep mountains, and take the officers and soldiers in circles.

The rest of the way is led by Huang Xueren and Butcher Chen. They will go around Longhua Town in a low-key manner, then sneak all the way to Fengjiazhuang to launch a surprise attack, capture Fengjiazhuang and return with food.

These two routes, one is high-profile like a devil entering the village, wanting to jump around with the noise outside, and the other is a low-key one, but it's the same as the devil entering the village, just don't shoot, come quietly.

After they left Huangzhu Mountain with their people, Huangzhu Mountain became calm again, and the old and weak women and children continued to work in the fields, picking wild fruits and vegetables, and fishing in the river.

It's just that some old hunters in Huangzhu Mountain have followed Fang Dongquan and the others out of the mountain. Therefore, the large-scale organization of manpower hunting has stopped. It is only occasionally that some old and weak young people go hunting. Although there are not many harvests, but It can also allow some people to eat meat and improve their meals.

As for Li Xuan, he continued to bury himself in the training of the Guards. In fact, he had nothing else to do except this matter.

The civil affairs of the 'Datang Dynasty', there is not much to say, and there is not much to say, but they are all handled properly by Liu Bagou, Qian Mengjiu, and Wang Wenhua. Occasionally, something is reported to Li Xuan. Most of them will put forward feasible suggestions, all Li Xuan has to do is to say: yes.

And Li Xuan himself is not interested in these things. In this ravine, managing a group of bandits is not attractive to him.

He is more interested in how to change the embarrassing situation he is facing, such as escaping from this place, or building up a strong guard force, and then defeating the attack of the officers and soldiers.

As for the rest, it doesn't matter to him right now.

As time passed, in the blink of an eye, Fang Dongquan and the others had been out of the mountain for ten days, and some news came back one after another a few days ago. Continue to send a messenger to Huangzhushan to report the situation.

The last news was that Fang Dongquan and the others were about to approach Longhua Town, which attracted the attention of the officers and soldiers.

At the same time, Huang Xueren was also ready to lead people to bypass Longhua Town secretly.

Counting the time, now Fang Dongquan and the others should take the officers and soldiers around in the mountains, and Huang Xueren should have arrived at Fengjiazhuang.

However, the specific situation is unknown to everyone in Huangzhu Mountain.

As time passed, the atmosphere in Huangzhu Mountain became more and more tense.
