The troops fighting against Yinyang have not moved, but the public opinion war has begun first.

Even though he has a very high reputation in Yinyang City, Yinyang City is now controlled by Li Changzheng. If the war really starts, the three hundred soldiers and horses of the Shoo-Jing County will not be able to compete with Yinyang at all.

As for climbing a high place and shouting, then the people of Yinyang City opened the door to greet him, it was simply impossible, so Zhao Langjiang decided to transform their grudges with Yinyang City into his personal grudges with Li Changzheng.

This is the only way to regain Yin Yang.

Li Changzheng was unstable in Yinyang City, and he urgently needed a victory to establish his status and reputation.

Although the strength is huge, they all think of it together.

Both sides made a campaign to decide the victory or defeat on the Golden Knife Platform, ten miles away from the Ten Mile Pavilion.

Of course, no matter how much you say, neither side took it lightly, nor did they agree on the time to start the battle of attrition. If local victory can be achieved and Li Changzheng's arrogance will be defeated, Zhao Langjiang will never let it go.

On this day, two uninvited guests came to Zhao Langjiang's mansion, saying that they came from Yinyang City and the owner of the grocery store selling sheepskin was stopped outside by Ye Erlang's men.

After hearing this, Zhao Langjiang walked out directly.

The two were old and young, wearing felt hats, looking ordinary vendors dressed up. When Zhao Langjiang saw them, he excitedly said, "Shopkeeper Xu, Li Bufan?"

The two were the grocery store owner Xu Yang and the Yinyang City gatekeeper Li Bufan. When they saw Zhao Langjiang, they hurriedly saluted.

"Have you met the city lord!"

Zhao Langjiang welcomed the two into the room.

After talking and greetings, he asked, "What is the situation in Yinyang City?"

In the past few days, he has received a lot of information from Yinyang City, but it is still said it from them, which is more real.

Xu Yang and Li Bufan told the story in a casual manner.

A few months ago, after Li Changzheng and Li Changgong entered Guifan Tower, they did not make any big moves, everything was as usual. After the chaos on October 10th, the next morning, Guifan Tower suddenly launched an attack and led 200 people to attack the City Lord's Mansion. In less than half a day, he took the City Lord's Mansion.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Chai Gong sent someone to notify Li Bufan. Li Bufan was close to the city gate and took advantage of the situation in Li Changzheng to control the situation, and had been hiding in Sifeng Mountain.

Zhao Langjiang asked, "How about the city lord's mansion?"

Manager Xu said, "Li Changzheng captured Chai Gongwang and Li Xianzhong and ordered them to be loyal to him. Li Xianzhong refused and was killed by Li Changzheng. Now there is a mess in Yinyang, and Li Changzheng does not understand government affairs. All matters will be temporarily taken over by Chai Gongwang."

Li Bufan said, "This is not the first time that Chai Gong wants that guy who is traitorous."

Manager Xu said, "You can't say that to him. If it weren't for him, you would have been caught by them. Besides, he has temporarily replaced Yinyang City and there has been no big trouble."

Zhao Langjiang was not worried about Chai Gongwang. During this period, Chai Gongwang's ability was obvious to all, but as for loyalty, he had never asked for it.

The relationship between him and Chai Gongwang was just hired, gave him a generous salary, and let him work. But he did not regard him as a friend. Of course, Chai Gongwang made a lot of contributions in governing the city.

He was even more worried that it was Baima Yicong and other nineteen cities.

Xu Yang said again, "After General Li's death, Li Changzheng asked the three commanders to be loyal to him. The commanders Li Chenglong and Li Xunbao refused and are now being imprisoned in prison. However..."

Zhao Langjiang heard the indirect voice, "Yellow like a wolf?"

Manager Xu nodded.

"The dragon, tiger, leopard, and wolf guards, only the wolf cavalry army surrendered to Li Changzheng. The wolf cavalry army has the lowest status among the white horses, and Huang Rulang's resentment has been around for a long time."

Li Bufan said, "A man of Semi is an outsider after all."

Huang Rulang is a semen man, known for his cruelty, and has made considerable contributions in the Battle of Yinyang. However, Zhao Langjiang has scolded him many times because of his indiscriminate rules and cruel nature. This time, Li Changgong seized the city, but instead gave him a chance.

"In addition to the people from Guifanlou, Li Changzheng now relies on Semu people to help him suppress the people."

Zhao Langjiang was in a bad mood after hearing this. Li Xianzhong was the commander of the army he relied most on, and Li Qiuyi's old subordinate. He had a good relationship with Zhao Langjiang, but he was killed. Among the four commanders, Li Yuanhu had already died in battle, and the commander of the Tiger Cavalry was always vacant. Huang Rulang rebelled again. After this incident, even if he took back the city, Yin Yang would be seriously injured.

He asked again, "Where is Miss Qingluan?"

On that day, Qingluan defected to Guifanlou, and Zhao Langjiang took her in the city lord's mansion, which was a risky move. He wanted to wait until he returned to Yinyang to solve the troubles of Guifanlou, but he did not expect that Guifanlou would take the lead.

Qingluan is a person who has been on the Book of Life and Death, and Gui Fanlou has never tolerated traitors.

Li Bufan shook his head and said he didn't know.

Manager Xu said, "The news came from the city lord's mansion. After Li Ling captured her back to Guifanlou, there was no news."

There is no news, maybe it is good news.

When talking to the two, Zhao Langjiang found that the situation in Yinyang City was worse than expected. The more delayed it was, the more difficult it would be to recover it in the future. He decided not to delay it.

"How many soldiers and horses do you have?"

Li Bufan said, "On the day when the accident happened, I escaped with more than 100 people. Including those original people in Sifeng Mountain, I could get two hundred people."

After Zhao Langjiang became the city lord, he expanded the original five thousand white horses from 12,000 to 12,000 people, and selected three thousand from 30,000 prisoners of Western Chu, and collected 15,000 troops.

The three hundred Ye family members, two hundred white horses, and fighting against 15,000 white horses is not difficult, at least the siege is not advisable.

They are all the people in Yinyang and the children of Yinyang, so how can they kill each other for this?

Manager Xu said, "City Lord, don't belittle yourself. What Li Changzheng can really mobilize is the Three Thousand Wolf Cavalry of Huang Rulang, and their masters of Gui Fanlou."

Zhao Langjiang said, "It's not time to go, I'll leave tomorrow. I'll ask Manager Xu to help you with some things."

"Please give me instructions."

"If there is chaos today, our Yinyang City cannot withstand a siege. Please contact me with the other eighteen city lords and tell them that this is my personal grudge with Li Changzheng. Before we decide the winner, please wait and see."

"After going back, I spread the news that I was going back in the city, telling the people that Yinyang people would not beat Yinyang people. Also, I would like to send a message to Chai Gongwang, asking him to find a way to convince Li Changzheng to fight me."

After Manager Xu left, Zhao Langjiang stayed Li Bufan and discussed with him in the room for half a day. In the afternoon, he found Ye Erlang again and discussed with him about sending troops.

Ye Erlang said angrily, "In the morning, the elders of the clan held a meeting and did not agree to the Ye family's troops. I tried to persuade them, and they agreed to borrow a hundred people. It's really outrageous."

Zhao Langjiang knew that the Ye family still didn’t? He trusted himself too much.

If it succeeds, it's okay. If it fails, the strength of the Ye family in Xiangjian County will be greatly reduced. At that time, when the counterattack of the Che family and other families will be lost, everything will be empty talk.

Ye Erlang said, "Don't worry, General, the hundred people I selected from them are all elite soldiers and generals who have lived and died with me. I brought them down from Shuangfeng Mountain back then."

Zhao Langjiang nodded to express his understanding.

Borrowing soldiers is just a leverage. He has no intention of using these soldiers to fight against Yinyang City, then

It's equivalent to sending death for nothing.

The next morning, Zhao Langjiang, Ye Erlang and Li Bufan led one hundred men from Ye's family to quietly leave Xiangjian County.

There was no killing of cattle and sheep, and there was no farewell to them. Except for the elders in the clan, there was no even news.

A few days later, everyone arrived at Sifeng Mountain and met with more than 100 Li Bufan's people. Fortunately, Sifeng Mountain was originally a bandit nest. After the Battle of Yinyang, everyone led by Sifenghuang went to Shitou City and had contact with it. The hundred people had enough food, grass and weapons.

After arriving at Sifeng Mountain, Zhao Langjiang did not send troops and ordered the troops to rest on the spot. During this period, he continued to send "spy" to Baimayi and Yinyang City to "inquire" information.

It is more about spreading than inquiring.

It didn't take long before there was a rumor in the entire Yinyang City that the King of Golden Sword Zhao Langjiang was in a hurry and it would take less than a few days to attack Yinyang City.

The reactions of the people are quite complicated.

Some people hope that Zhao Langjiang will come back.

Although this city lord has not been a long time, he has managed Yinyang in an orderly manner, and his life is much better than Li Xiancheng back then. On the contrary, after Li Changzheng occupied the city lord's mansion, he created a white terror in the city, and someone died almost every day. The beheading stones at the gate of the city lord's mansion were stained with blood. Moreover, the wolf cavalry, which is mostly in secular, has also begun to act rampant due to its great increase in status, which makes people dare not speak out.

Some people also expressed concerns.

Yinyang City has been in constant wars in recent years. After finally living a good life for a few days, they have to fight again. They just want to live a good life. Whoever is the city lord is like a bird for them.

In the city lord's mansion, Li Changzheng was a little nervous.

It’s not that he was afraid of Zhao Langjiang, but that the people in the city were getting more and more resentful, especially the news of Zhao Langjiang’s return spread throughout the streets and alleys. He asked the Wolf Cavalry Army to stop the rumors, but who could block the mouths of the crowd?

Especially the two commanders Li Chenglong and Li Xunbao were not loyal to him. He had also found lower-level officers, but Bai Ma Yicong was extremely strict in governing the army. Unless he killed Li Chenglong and Li Xunbao, they only listened to the two commanders.

He fought with Zhao Langjiang, which was inevitable.

But he was not in a hurry, the one who was in a hurry should be Zhao Langjiang. His strength outside the three realms and the Yinyang Formation were in his hands. What was he afraid of Zhao Langjiang?

What he was worried about was Zhao Langjiang's influence.

So he decided to use one word: drag.

As long as it takes three or five months, Zhao Langjiang has no choice but to take Yinyang City and his reputation will definitely drop to a low point.

So what about Zhao Langjiang? So what about the God of War in the Western Xinjiang? I will give you time, but I will not be able to win Yinyang City? I will have no choice but to wait until you have no choice but to have no prestige in the army.

That was the best time for him to take action.

Chai Gongwang walked in with a batch of documents and came to Li Changzheng to sign and approve it. Li Changzheng was not interested in governing the city and said, "You can do it."

Mr. Chai nodded and was about to leave when Li Ling suddenly said, "Wait!"

He whispered a few words to Li Changzheng, and Li Changzheng asked, "Duke Chai, how is the matter of increasing taxes done?"

After becoming the city lord, Li Changzheng discovered that in such a large Yinyang City, the treasury and treasury could not even be taken out. He originally thought that he could become a prince, just like a local emperor, but the financial situation was tight, which made him the city lord bored.

What's more, he promised to share gold and silver for the brothers of Guifanlou. Now that he has successfully seized power, his promise has not been fulfilled. Li Lingcai is fine, but the people of Guifanlou have begun to feel resentful.

Li Lingcai gave him an idea to increase taxes and turn the original ten-to-one to ten-to-five to solve the urgent problem.

Chai Gongwang sighed and said, "I have talked with several chambers of commerce representatives in the city. They are extremely dissatisfied with this. I am comforting their emotions."

Li Lingcai suddenly said, "Put the mood? Who will appease the emotions of so many brothers under my command? Who is dissatisfied? Tell me the name and I will take people to appease them tonight!"
