In the big tent, there were dozens of well-known generals from more than a dozen tribes, large and small, who were commanding these people, either to lure them for profit or to suppress them with power. Over the years, Li Chun's only magic weapon for controlling Qin Feng Road was,

Countless coins were thrown at them and heads fell to the ground. The unconvinced tribe has now disappeared into the vast river of history.

Li Chun didn't think highly of these people.

Because these people respect him now, but they are likely to betray him at some point in the future, as long as his strength is not there.

Just like this time after his main force was defeated by Yelu Longxu, some people wanted to grin at him, but the situation reversed too quickly. Before these people had time to betray, he regained his temper.

But Zhangcheng is different.

The Zhang family has been a general for generations, and its influence is not limited to the army, nor is it limited to the Song Dynasty. Even among the Liao people, Zhang Chao and Zhang Cheng are also considered number one, but they are more influential than Li Chun.

Much strength.

This was one of the reasons why Li Chun had to enlist Zhang Cheng when he wanted to seize the Shaanxi Road.

You are famous, but your strength is not strong now, so it is a good time to make a decision.

If such a person does not take advantage of it now, he will have no chance in the future.

Therefore, Li Chun still respects Zhang Cheng very much.

The tribal leaders on Qin Feng Road are tools that can be used, but Zhang Cheng is his partner along the way. With Zhang Cheng's blessing, Li Chun can be even more powerful!

Seeing Zhang Cheng coming over with wine, Li Chun smiled and got down from the table to greet him.

Zhang Cheng filled the cup for the other party and said with a smile: "My congratulations and appeasement make your dreams come true. You will be able to show your great ambitions. From now on, you will soar into the sky and your future will be limitless."

Hearing Zhang Cheng calling himself a subordinate in front of him, Li Chun laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth and said repeatedly: "Little Lieutenant Zhang is so polite. Although you and I are one round apart in age, we can really be called friends.

As brothers, come, come, drink together, drink together!"

Li Chun, who was so proud, held the cup with both hands and raised his head to drink.

An unexplainable smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Cheng's mouth. One hand was still holding the wine bottle, but the other hand reached to his waist.

There was a soft choking sound, and a black arc of light flashed through the tent.

There was a soft cracking sound.

The black arc light passed over Li Chun's neck lightly, leaving no trace but a line of blood on his neck.

There was a sudden uproar in the big tent.

Some people screamed in shock, and some jumped three feet high on the spot.

Li Chun still held the wine glass in his hand and hadn't poured it yet. His eyes were full of surprise as he looked at Zhang Cheng.

Until his death, he never figured out why Zhang Cheng wanted to kill him?

Staring at the drop of blood slowly rolling down from the blade, Zhang Cheng said calmly: "What a good knife!"

This knife was given to him by Xiao Erlang.

At that time, Xiao Erlang made Xiao Ding a horizontal sword that was unparalleled in the world. With the remaining materials, he made two daggers and such a saber. Xiao Erlang kept the dagger for his own use, and the saber.

, and gave it to Zhang Cheng.

After Zhang Chao died at the hands of Xiao Ding, Zhang Cheng returned the sword to Xiao Cheng, which meant that he was cut off.

This knife was returned to Zhang Cheng's hands only half a year ago.

The first time he saw blood was when he beheaded a big shot like Li Chun.

He dropped the wine bottle, grabbed Li Chun's head, and kicked Li Chun's headless body to the ground. Zhang Cheng stood in the middle of the tent with a knife, squinting at everyone.

"Zhang Cheng!" Someone roared and jumped out.

That was a general close to Li Chun. Seeing Li Chun being killed, he was frightened for a moment and finally reacted, drew his sword and rushed out.

"Kill Zhang Cheng and avenge the pacifier!" the general roared and rushed over.

However, his steps only took two steps and then stopped abruptly.

A knife was stabbed into his waist from behind.

He turned his head with difficulty and looked at the guy with the black hand.

That was his deputy and one of Li Chun's trusted generals.

"you you……"

Zhang Cheng sneered, I have been the Grand Lieutenant of the Song Dynasty for decades, do you really think that I got it for free?

"Zhang Quan, guard the big tent door!" He ordered in a cold voice.

The general who had just committed a murderous act shouted his orders, and a tiger jumped to the door of the tent, holding a bloody knife and guarding the door.

"Little Lieutenant Zhang, we can't control the feud between you and Envoy Li. But do you want to challenge all of us here alone?" A tall tribe leader with white beard and hair stood up.

He stood with his sword in his hand and asked in a concentrated voice.

"Clan Chief Li Gen, in an emergency, you should do something extraordinary!" Zhang Cheng laughed, placed Li Chun's head in the middle of the case, then inserted the knife next to his head with his backhand, then separated his hands and let out a squeak.

, he actually tore his robe in half.

Inside the outer robe is a gown, but this gown is a little different. It is sewn into pieces like dried tofu pieces. These are not enough to make everyone moved, but there is a piece hanging from the gown.

The lead made Li Gen's pupils shrink.

"Chief Li Gen must have seen the power of the hand cannon before, so let me tell you now!" Zhang Cheng poked his chest with his finger: "The charge of each block here is that of the previous hand cannon.

More than double. And this gown has a total of ten such tofu blocks, which is equivalent to about twenty hand cannons."

He laughed loudly and said, "Clan Chief Li Gen, tell me, can I challenge you to a fight?"

There was deathly silence in the big tent.

As Zhang Cheng said, if this coat explodes, not even a single person in this big tent will have a chance to survive, I'm afraid there won't even be a chance to leave a whole body.

It is estimated that by then, only a pile of minced meat will be left.

"Are you just trying to scare us?"

From the corner, a low, somewhat uncertain voice came.

But inside the big tent, no one paid attention to this noise.

People like Zhang Cheng will never bluff if they don't do something or if they do something, anyone with a little common sense can understand this.

"Little Lieutenant Zhang, why are you here? We have always respected the old Lieutenant and you, Little Lieutenant Zhang. Is there anything that we cannot discuss?"

Zhang Cheng glanced at him and said coldly: "In the face of national justice, there is nothing to discuss."

Li Gen's face turned bitter.

"As a high-ranking official in the Song Dynasty, Li Chun did not want to serve the country. He was shameless and shameless. He used his own body to serve the enemy. He did not feel ashamed, but felt proud of it. Such an unfaithful and unjust person, Zhang will be eliminated for the country today. All the kings one by one

They are all officials appointed by the imperial court. They must live with the emperor's salary and be loyal to the emperor. They should think of serving the country and being loyal to the people." Zhang Cheng said loudly.

Li Gen took a deep breath and said with a wry smile: "Little Lieutenant Zhang, we are just Li's appeasement envoys, oh no, no, no, we are just a small number under Li's command, who can make the decision? It's not what Li said, we are

Just do whatever you say, right?"

There were a lot of people waiting in the room, their heads nodding like chickens pecking at rice.

No matter what they were thinking, no one wanted to anger Zhang Cheng at this time.

This guy is not afraid of death, but everyone doesn’t want to die yet!

"Then I will now give you a chance to stand up and take charge of the matter!" Zhang Cheng laughed: "After completing this matter, I will take care of the promotion of each of you, and the wealth will roll in!"

"Little Lieutenant Zhang, just give me your orders!" Li Gen cupped his hands and said.

"Right now, there are five thousand direct descendants of Thief Li outside. If we don't wipe them out, there will be no good end for us!" Zhang Cheng said: "All of us here have many times the number of soldiers and horses, and we have wiped out this army, and the weapons

The armor and everything else will all belong to you, Zhang will not take any of it, and the property of Thief Li will also be taken by you when the time comes. How about this reward?"

Inside the big tent, there was only the sound of heavy breathing.

Li Chun's five thousand elite soldiers are equipped with excellent equipment that makes people salivate.

Yelu Longxu destroyed nearly 20,000 Li Chun's troops in Huazhou and other places, but those people were still a lot less interesting than the 5,000 Li Chun's personal soldiers.

Li Chun was able to suppress the unruly tribal armed forces on Qinfeng Road for many years, not by convincing others with virtue.

"We would like to, but Xiao Zhang is too happy, we are really no match for them!" Li Gen said.

"Of course my people will be responsible for attacking the fortress. You are just surrounding them on all sides and not allowing them to escape," Zhang Cheng said.

"So, of course there is no problem!" Li Gen couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Little Lieutenant Zhang, will I make arrangements now?"

Zhang Cheng chuckled but remained silent.

Li Gen understood: "Then I'd better drink with Lieutenant Zhang here. Li Jiu, come here!"

A young general walked up to Li Gen. Li Gen whispered a few words. The young general's eyes lit up. He saluted Zhang Cheng happily, turned around and hurried out of the tent. This time, the young general who stopped at the entrance of the tent.

The general did not stop him.

After a while, more than a dozen people walked out of the tent.

Gan Quan finally threw his gnawed bone to the ground.

The bones are so clean that it would make a wild dog cry when they see it. There are even deep tooth marks on the bone stick!

"Come out!" Gan Quan whispered: "The matter should be 80% or 90% done!"

Beside him stood a tall general.

This man's name is Bao Wei, who is from the Jiangning garrison. He is also the person who accompanied Gan Quan and escorted the supplies back from Jiangning.

Today, Bao Wei and his 400 Jiangning garrison will be the main force of the assault.

"Zhang Jia!" Gan Quan said.

A young Qingqi general ran up to Gan Quan with brisk steps.

Zhang Jia is a general of the Zhang family. He grew up with Zhang Cheng and is also one of the most trusted generals by Zhang Cheng.

"You bring a hundred light cavalry and throw hand cannons to destroy the enemy's military formation, cause the enemy to panic, and lay the foundation for the main force to charge and break the formation!" Gan Quan ordered.

"clear!"

The hand cannon is the sharpest weapon in Zhang Cheng's hands now. Naturally, such a thing would not be handed over to others casually. Those who hold it are the people Zhang Cheng trusts the most.

Of course, at this time, they must be the ones charging forward to do the most dangerous things.

"General Bao is following you to attack, I will lead the main force to attack again!" Gan Quan patted Zhang Jia on the shoulder: "Be careful, good times are coming, but don't die!"

"Don't worry, General Gan, I have a long life!" Zhang Jia smiled and cupped his hands at the two of them, turned around and left.

"Please, General Bao!"

"It's my job!" Bao Wei returned the greeting with crossed arms.

Li Gang finally realized that something was wrong.

The tribal troops originally stationed nearby suddenly began to move.

Teams were wandering around their camp, and there were more and more of them. Counting the flags carefully, he was shocked to find that those showing obvious hostility actually included all the tribes here today.

"What happened? Send someone to ask!" While sending people to ask, they also sent people to rush to the Chinese army's tent to ask clearly.

But something happened that frightened him even more.

The two groups of people sent out were all meat buns trying to beat dogs, and they never came back.

His men even saw these people being shot off their horses by the bows of the tribal cavalry who surrounded them.

These tribal armies rebelled!

Li Gang immediately came to this conclusion.

It’s just that there’s no reaction from the Chinese army’s headquarters?

Then, he saw more cavalry appear in his field of vision.

Those are Zhang Cheng's subordinates.

They blocked the last way out for Li Gang's troops.

If he is not ready to fight at this time, then Li Gang is an out-and-out fool.

Li Gang held five thousand elite troops in his hands and was not afraid of his opponents.

He was too familiar with those tribal armies. They were just a bunch of bullies who were afraid of the strong, so he didn't bother to tangle with these tribal armies. The only thing he had to do was to defeat Zhang Cheng's troops directly in front of him. After defeating Zhang Cheng, those tribal armies would naturally

They would run up to them and lick their own feet, and then throw out a few people as scapegoats for their previous disrespectful actions. They had done this many times over the years.

Zhang Jia screamed and galloped forward, and behind him, more than a hundred light cavalry were widely separated, and everyone drove their horses as fast as they could.

The order they received was that even if they died, they had to throw the hand cannon into the enemy's formation.

Closer, closer still.

Zhang Jia heard the whistling sound of arrows in his ears. He leaned closely on his horse, pulled out a hand cannon, and lit it on the fire torch next to the saddle. He suddenly straightened up, shouted, and fired the cannon.

Drawing a beautiful curve, it fell towards the enemy cavalry dozens of steps away.

Almost at the same time as he straightened up, there were two clang sounds, and two arrows had been hit in his chest and abdomen. The pain immediately spread over him. He quickly lay down and took off another hand cannon.

There was a violent explosion in my ears,

He straightened up again. This time, there were only scattered arrows left. Zhang Jia saw that the originally orderly cavalry team on the opposite side had become chaotic amidst the violent explosions.

The horse was frightened!

Zhang Jia laughed. His horse's ears had long been plugged.

This time, he managed to throw the hand cannon at the place where the crowd was the densest.

Behind him, the rumble of horse hooves could be heard.

Zhang Jia turned around and saw the black cavalry charging straight towards him like an awl.
Chapter completed!
