Li Mi was defeated by Pei Yuanqing all the way. He walked around the "Imperial Palace" anxiously with his hands behind his back, complaining: "Military Advisor Xu, it's all your fault. You made me become emperor so early. Now Yuwen Chengdu hasn't even arrived yet, and we are about to be beaten to death by Pei Yuanqing."

After hearing this, Xu Maogong sneered in his heart and thought to himself, you don't want to become emperor so early? You keep talking about me all day long, but you put it aside at this critical moment. Who can't see your ambition?
But Li Mi was the most capable among these peasant rebel kings. Since Xu Maogong had chosen to pledge his loyalty, he would not leave easily. He gently waved his feather fan, looked around at Shan Xiongxin and other loyal ministers, and finally his eyes fell on Li Mi.

"Pei Yuanqing is a brave man. We must use a trick to lure him up the mountain. The stronger he is, the better it will be for us in Wagang."

"Nonsense! How could I not know this? I still think Yuwen Chengdu is a good man. He is a good man who killed the tyrant Yang Guang by using the words he used for us!"

Li Mi cursed loudly: "The key is that Pei Yuanqing surrendered to us. Don't you want to be blinded? He has defeated us all the way. How could he surrender to a defeated general?"

Xu Maogong showed an unfathomable smile on his face: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I have a plan. I will make sure Pei Renji and his family surrender."

A month later.

"Xu Maogong, you sinister villain, I will fucking kill you!"

In the main hall of the Wagangzhai Palace, Pei Yuanqing was swinging a three-hundred-jin hammer to beat Xu Maogong into a pulp.

"Hey, Third Young Master, what did I, Xu Maogong, do that you have to beat me to death?" Xu Maogong blinked and looked at Pei Yuanqing's family in front of him.

"You fucking idiot..." Pei Yuanqing was so angry, "You're playing dumb in front of me, right? You spread the nursery rhyme, right? You sent the report letter with flying arrows, right? You sent the food and intelligence on purpose, right? Ah? You framed my family with a treacherous scheme, and you're still pretending to be innocent. I really want to beat you to death!"

"I did it." Xu Maogong looked innocent. "It was just a little sowing discord. I mean, the level of trust in the court is too low. I haven't even started yet. This is just the warm-up stage. And you guys are already coaxing me into surrendering?"

Xu Maogong really didn't expect this. Even though he was the reincarnation of the Right Prime Minister and was very smart, he didn't expect this to happen. He originally had a complete and complex plan, which was very costly, but it was all for the purpose of getting Pei Yuanqing to come to the mountain.

For Pei Yuanqing, it can be said that any loss is worth it. Once they have Pei Yuanqing, they will have the capital to not be afraid of Yuwen Chengdu. If the invincible Tianbao general is defeated in Wagang, then Wagang can really raise his arms and become the leader of the anti-king alliance.

Xu Maogong originally planned to spread nursery rhymes, shoot letters with arrows, and deliberately let the court understand the two "great victories" of food and supplies by matching the content of the letters. He also deliberately let the court's military supervisors know about it, so as to plant the seeds of suspicion first, and then start his huge plan which was linked one by one.

After all, the Pei family is the general of a pass, and Pei Yuanqing is a brave and fierce general who is unmatched by ten thousand men. It seems that no one would easily let the Pei family go to the hostile forces.

Unexpectedly, there really is such a person. This military supervisor is like a brainless person. Xu Maogong didn't even use a basic attack to exchange for a big move. He just swung in front of him twice to test the opponent, and immediately all the big moves of the opponent, including the flash, were used.

Xu Maogong originally intended to complete this plan in three months to six months, but he did not expect that in less than a month, the military supervisor successfully targeted the Pei father and son.

There was no way, they were a bunch of grassroots rebels who had no idea of ​​the twists and turns of the court. In the minds of the Wagang people, Pei Yuanqing was as brave as Yuwen Chengdu, so he should be treated no less than Yuwen Chengdu.

But the imperial court doesn't care about your ability at all, it only cares about whether you have connections, whether you have a big backer, and whether you can "get things done". Obviously, the Pei family father and son are not good at getting things done, they just do their work silently.

Having won so many victories but not giving the military supervisor a single penny in bribes, the military supervisor was naturally dissatisfied. When Xu Maogong's letter of counter-espionage arrived, the military supervisor was overjoyed and thought he had seized a good opportunity.

After the discovery, all kinds of tactics were used against the Pei family father and son, ruining several opportunities for real victory. Winning or not winning the battle was not a big deal for the military supervisor.

He was a military supervisor, not a general, and he did not rely on military achievements to get promoted or make money. No matter how big a victory he won, he would report it to Yang Guang, and the emperor would be happy and reward him, but it had nothing to do with him as a military supervisor. He made money entirely by taking bribes.

Seeing this opportunity, the military supervisor thought he could take the opportunity to make the Pei family father and son bow their heads, but the Pei family father and son were still not "sensible". Not only did they not bring gifts to apologize, they even quarreled with him and scolded him for delaying the battle.

There was even one time when Pei Renji was not present, the military supervisor almost had Pei Yuanqing tie him up and chop him up for military law. Fortunately, Pei Renji realized in time that he had been an official for many years and knew that killing the military supervisor would be tantamount to rebellion, so he saved the military supervisor's life.

The military supervisor certainly would not thank Pei Renji for saving his life, and he hated Pei's father and son even more. After finally getting the so-called "letter of treason", he threatened to report it to the court and execute Pei's father and son immediately.

At this point, the military supervisor didn't care about the bribe or not. He just wanted the Pei father and son to die.

It didn't matter if he wanted the Pei father and son to die. He could secretly send these letters, food and other evidence of treason to the capital and report to the emperor. The emperor would naturally find someone to deal with the Pei father and son.

Even if Yang Guang didn't know how powerful he was, Yu Wenzhi always had brains. He would definitely choose to trick the Pei father and son into coming to the capital Luoyang alone in the name of "promotion" or "celebration" and then kill them.

As a result, the military supervisor acted like a big fool. He jumped up and down in Pei Renji's tent with the letter in his hand, shouting for the death of Pei's father and son. He also tried to see panic-stricken looks on their faces, trying to make them kneel down and beg for mercy, and then cruelly watched them being beheaded by the court.

How should I put it? It's hard to comment. If Yang Gui knew, he would suspect that this military supervisor was also a time traveler, and that he was a fairy in his previous life, the kind of fairy that he had read too many female novels.

The generals who were in command of a large army were framed in front of them, and the people threatened that they would die a miserable death. Then the generals had to accept their death obediently and miserably.

Don't be so funny. Even a general like Yue Fei, who had complete control over logistics and troop deployment power in the hands of the imperial court and was a model of "blind loyalty" for thousands of years, would have his military supervisor Wang Jun executed for failing to perform his duties and delaying military affairs, right?
The father and son of the Pei family exchanged glances, and in less than a second, they decided to defect to Wagang. Pei Yuanqing walked towards the military supervisor, who thought Pei Yuanqing was coming to beg for mercy, so he laughed loudly and looked arrogant, hoping to see Pei Yuanqing kneeling at his feet and crying bitterly.

As a result, Pei Yuanqing pulled out the hammer from the weapon rack.

The moment Pei Renji locked the gate of the general's tent, the military supervisor felt as if the sky had fallen. Who was Pei Yuanqing? The reincarnation of Nezha! One head and two arms! Although he didn't use his brain to exchange for strength like Li Yuanba, he was a bit stupid. He had been unhappy with this military supervisor for a long time, and now he dared to threaten them?

The hammer hit his head hard into his chest.

Pei Renji was so extreme that he simply took a few thousand soldiers who were willing to follow him, transported all the food and military pay in the city out, and left the court with an empty shell, and went to Wagang overnight.

This led to the scene where Pei Yuanqing was about to hammer Xu Maogong to death in front of the tent.

Xu Maogong looked at Pei Yuanqing's hammer without panic and sneered, "Master Pei, now you have rebelled against the imperial court and joined the rebels. It is no exaggeration to say that the only ones who dare to accept you are us Wagang. Apart from us Wagang, you will have no way out. I advise you to think it over carefully."

"You are just like the military supervisor before. I really want to beat you to death." Pei Yuanqing gritted his teeth and said, "You will die if you don't take me home? You can rebel, but I can't?"

"You want to rebel with a few thousand people, without a base, without food and fodder, without weapons?" Xu Maogong said happily: "General Pei, you are a veteran, do you think this is possible?"

"It's unlikely that we can rebel directly, but they are just like anyone else in that they serve as soldiers and eat food. Now all of you high-ranking officials of Wagang are here. I can beat you all to death and occupy Wagang. Isn't it the same?"

Pei Yuanqing shook the eight-petal plum blossom silver hammer in his hand and looked at Li Mi with ill intent: "Didn't you, Li Mi, kill Zhai Rang and usurp the throne before? Let's do it again."

"Oh my god, why are you doing this to me?" Li Mi was just sitting there enjoying the show with a smile on his face, but he didn't expect Pei Yuanqing to come running towards him with a hammer in his hand. He was so scared that he almost slipped under the dragon throne.

"Hey, hey, Master Pei, look, what are you doing?" Li Mi finally got up from the ground, feeling his legs and feet go limp. He looked at Pei Yuanqing with an awkward smile and said:
"I know that you and your son are both brave men, so you deserve the best treatment. Lord Mao, what are you doing? What's wrong with you apologizing to Master Pei?"

In fact, what Li Mi wanted to say was, even if you, Xu Maogong, give your life to Pei Yuanqing to let him vent his anger, so what? After all, you cannot harm my life.

But Li Mi was different from the military supervisor Pei Yuanqing after all. He knew what was right and what was wrong. He also knew that if he dared to say this, not only Xu Maogong, but even Pei Yuanqing who came to surrender would be the first to beat him to death.

However, even so, Xu Maogong was still unhappy.

"I'm working so hard for your foundation, and facing the vicious Pei Yuanqing, you surrender behind my back?" Xu Maogong had long been dissatisfied with Li Mi's behavior.

After all, they are sworn brothers with outlaws like Shan Xiongxin and Wang Junke. To put it bluntly, they are also desperadoes and gangsters. Do you really think Xu Maogong is that kind of sour intellectual?
He rushed to the front of the imperial steps, slapped the dragon desk with his palm, and angrily scolded Li Mi: "Did Pei Yuanqing scare you with a hammer, so you gave up the throne of Wagang to him? If you don't want to be the emperor, don't do it, let someone else do it!"

Shan Xiongxin and his gang, of course, sided with their brothers, and shouted from below: "Well said, what a piece of shit, how dare you wrong my brother, Pei Yuanqing, what can we do, if we all rush forward, you can't beat us all to death!"

Wang Junke thought to himself, "Don't you brag? Don't you know how capable Pei Yuanqing is? He can kill us all with one hammer. It won't take more than two minutes."

But the most important thing for the outlaws is loyalty. No matter what the consequences are, the most important thing at this time is to advance and retreat together. Wang Junke also carried a big Guandao. He stepped forward and stood with Shan Xiongxin to support his good brother Xu Maogong.

"Hey, look, what are you doing?" Li Mi was roaring in his heart, but he did not dare to show any displeasure on his face.

"I just thought that General Pei and his son are so capable that they need treatment that matches their abilities. How about this, General Pei, I will appoint you as the Grand Marshal of the Army, and you, the Third Master Pei, will take the position of Grand General, how do you think?"

"What the hell!" Xu Maogong pulled out a sword from his waist, chopped off the dragon desk with one sword, pointed at Li Mi's nose and cursed: "They have just arrived in Wagang and have not achieved anything yet, and you want him to be the general commander of the army? My second brother Shan didn't even say he wanted this position!"

Then he turned around and pointed his halberd at Pei Yuanqing and cursed: "Pei Yuanqing, don't think you can scare people by swinging a hammer. I'm telling you, as long as I, Xu Maogong, am here in Wagang, don't think about getting promoted overnight. You want treatment? Exchange it with military merit!"

It's over, it's over!
Li Mi cursed in his heart, "Why did you provoke Pei Yuanqing, this evil spirit? If he gets mad, won't we all die?" Li Mi knew that Xu Maogong was probably trying to provoke him, betting on Pei Yuanqing's arrogance to make him return to his heart.

The problem is, when you go to gamble, you are gambling with my life!

Seeing that Pei Yuanqing had already raised the hammer, Li Mi closed his eyes in despair.

The three hundred jin hammer made a sound like wind, and in an instant a hurricane arose in the palace, as if the Wagang Palace could not withstand Pei Yuanqing's hammer.

Li Mi was so frustrated that he closed his eyes and waited for death. But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement and he felt no pain. He secretly opened his eyes and saw that Pei Yuanqing's double hammers were just in front of Xu Maogong's nose, less than an inch away.

Xu Maogong's hair was disheveled and flying backwards, obviously blown away by the wind from the hammer, but he didn't move at all.

"Okay!" Pei Yuanqing looked at Xu Maogong for a long while before he shouted, "Military Advisor Xu is right. The more military merits you have, the more status you will get. I believe that in the future, Military Advisor Xu will also be fair in rewarding and punishing me, Pei Yuanqing."

"Don't worry, we are a wise army, unlike the incompetent emperor Yang Guang. As long as you have the ability and merit, what does it matter if you sit on my head?" Xu Maogong said calmly.

"Let's go!" Pei Yuanqing carried the silver hammer on his shoulder, turned around and walked out without even looking at Li Mi.

"Retreat, retreat!" Li Mi tried to save his dignity by shouting to himself to retreat, and then he slipped out of the hall. (End of this chapter)
