Chapter 181 Making Friends
"Please sir." Li Xin made a gesture of invitation to Zhang Cai, Zhang Cai gave a cold snort to Li Xin, and went out of the cabin.Obviously he was angry, and it has not dissipated until now.

When I got out of the cabin, I realized that a large ship had leaned on top of my own ship, and a springboard had been stretched out to connect the two ships together.Visible to the naked eye, a bearded man was sitting on a big tiger-skin chair, with a young man standing beside him, and some pirates around were holding ghost-headed swords and looking at everyone coldly.Zhang Cai was stunned for a moment, and there was actually a trace of worry and fear.

"It's a Hongmen banquet!" A burst of ridicule came from behind, but Li Xin was still dressed as a scholar, with a sword on his waist, extremely handsome and unrestrained.

"Haha, I didn't expect that your Excellency was on the head of Jiangyin City. I was really surprised when the arrow shot at me, Gu Sanmazi!" A hearty voice came, but Gu Sanmazi stood up, cupped his hands at Li Xin, and said : "Thank you, Your Excellency, for your mercy."

"In Jiangyin City, I just want to meet Gu Sanmazi, who is so powerful on the Yangtze River. It's extraordinary to see him today." Li Xin also laughed loudly. Regardless of Zhang Cai beside him, he raised his foot and walked towards the horizontal board. He stepped firmly on the Gu Sanmazi flagship, but there was no sign of fear.Seeing this, Zhang Cai also flicked his robe sleeves, and walked up to Gu Sanmazi's flagship, but there was still a hint of worry in his eyes.

"I don't know, sir, what is the name of a strong man?" Gu Sanmazi stared at Li Xin seriously. If it hadn't been reported by the eyeliner in Jiangyin City, he really couldn't believe that the one who could pull the six-stone bow turned out to be a weak-looking scholar guy.Looking at Li Xin's appearance, Gu Sanmazi really didn't know how to call him a gentleman, and finally called him a strong man.

"I'm Li Xin in Huai'an." Li Xin cupped his hands and said, but he didn't hide his identity.

"Taicang Zhang Cai." Zhang Cai also introduced himself, but he was surprised that Li Xin used his real name. You must know that Li Xin is now a golden mountain in the Jiangnan area. As long as you catch Li Xin, you can get a lot of money from the court reward.According to the theory, Li Xin should have hidden himself very deeply, but Li Xin actually revealed his true identity in front of these horse bandits.

"Li Xin in Huai'an, Zhang Cai in Taicang." The two people on the opposite side suddenly stood up, not to mention that Zhang Cai in Taicang is famous in the south of the Yangtze River, this Li Xin in Huai'an is even more famous throughout the south of the Yangtze River. , but he had also heard of Li Xin's name, but he didn't expect Li Xin to appear in Jiangnan, and even on his own boat.

"That's right, it's Huaian Li Xin." Li Xin nodded.

"I didn't expect the world-famous General Li Xin to appear here, so courageous." The young man next to Gu Sanmazi cupped his hands and said, "Just because of this, we can be sure that the general is Li Xin. Such boldness. I will see the general next week at Chu Yun."

"Don't dare." Li Xin nodded and cupped his hands and said, "This time Li Xin ventured south, I didn't expect to meet two heroes here, but Li Xin was lucky in his life."

"Hmph, a nest of snakes and rats." Zhang Cai watched clearly from the side, and finally couldn't help but snorted coldly.He just couldn't bear the situation in front of him.

"Haha, the general is really courageous. Nanjing has already issued a hunting order. As long as you can get the general, the previous crimes will not be blamed, you may be promoted, or you may get rich. Isn't the general afraid that I will take the general to Nanjing?" Zhou Chuyun Laughed out loud.

"If that's the case, I'm afraid the two generals will die before me." Li Xin didn't show any worry or fear on his face. How does it compare with Jiannu? The people around me, Li Xin, are not good at water warfare, but within five steps, it is easy to take the heads of two generals. The two generals crossed the river and died in the hands of the two generals. I don't know how many, if I take the lives of the two generals, I'm afraid it will be an easy thing." As he spoke, he heard a soft sound, and saw a sword suddenly appearing in front of Gu Sanmazi, with a cold light , Breathtaking, Gu Sanmazi couldn't help but tremble.

"The courage of the general is beyond our comparability." Gu Sanmazi and Zhou Chuyun couldn't help but gasped when they saw this, then Gu Sanmazi cupped his hands and said: "The general's name, although we are in the south of the Yangtze River, we also heard that After all, in the green forest, who doesn’t admire the general’s bravery and reputation outside the pass, although I, Gu Sanmazi, am a pirate, I also know that the general is a hero in the world, how dare I offend him.”

"Yes, yes." Zhou Chuyun also looked respectful, cupped his hands and said: "Actually, I came here this time not for other reasons, but to thank the general for not killing me just now. General, please take a seat, sir." That week Chu Yun made two more chairs for the two of them to sit down.

"Hmph!" After Li Xin thanked them, Zhang Cai still had an angry confrontation, which made the two of them very embarrassed.

"You two have been on the river for several years, I don't know how you feel now?" Li Xin glanced at the two and said with a smile, but inadvertently resolved the embarrassment of the two.

"Today's imperial court is corrupt, tyrannical government is rampant, and the people are in dire straits. We used to be poor people. We took this path in desperation. We thought that we would be destroyed by the imperial court in a month or two, and my own life would be killed by the imperial court. It's just a curious person. Over the years, the imperial court has not only been reluctant to wait for me, but our strength has grown stronger and stronger." Gu Sanmazi patted his thigh, swept Zhang Cai aside and said: "Mr. Zhang, I Gu Sanmazi knows that scholars like you look down on us pirates, hum, if it was peacetime, why would I, Gu Sanmazi, beg for life at sea. You forced me to do this."

"At the beginning of human beings, human nature is good. If you have grievances, you can naturally appeal to the court, but you have become a pirate and made a disaster for the river. If you behave like this, if your children and grandchildren will face the world in the future?" Zhang Cai still Said disdainfully.

"The imperial court? Mr. Zhang, do you think we haven't done it? But what happened in the end? My eldest brother was almost killed by a high-ranking official in the Yamen." Zhou Chuyun said disdainfully: "I can't wait for this, just say General Li, he He is an official, but what about now? He has made great achievements outside the pass, and we all admire him, but what did your court do? You actually ordered the entire Green Forest Road to arrest him. To such a meritorious official Even so, let alone ours. Mr. Zhang, if you are like this one day, I am afraid that you will be like us."

"You?" Zhang Cai blushed, and finally gave Li Xin a vicious look.Now that I have left Linchuan and boarded Li Xin's big boat, it is conceivable that Li Xin will definitely spread the news, and by then, it will be shit or shit.The court must have thought that he had taken refuge in Li Xin.Perhaps the final outcome is not as good as these two people!
"Being a thief at this moment may not be a thief in the future." Li Xin said with a smile: "The so-called thief who steals the hook will be punished, and the one who steals the country will be a marquis. How can Mr. Zhang not know that the two of them will not be able to become marquises in the future? Think of the time when the Taizu The emperor is also a monk who became a monk in Huangjue Temple, and he is also a member of the red scarf. How could he know that he would win the world and become a great Ming Dynasty in the future? And there is Emperor Chengzu, you who came to the throne Don't you think there is a problem? Back then, Emperor Hui was the heir to the throne personally appointed by the Taizu. According to Mr. Zhang, there is no such thing as becoming an ancestor. It is better to be a prince honestly, isn't it? ? But he still rebelled in the end and took away his nephew's country."

"Emperor Chengzu is so wise and powerful, how can you compare with him. You and other pirates are pirates. Apart from burning, killing, looting, and wantonly invading the common people, what else can you do? Thinking of Fenghou is a joke in the world." Zhang Cai blushed and had a thick neck, cupped his hands towards the north, and glanced at the three of them with disdain.Gu Sanmazi and Zhou Chuyun's expressions changed slightly when they heard this, and they looked at Zhang Cai with unkind eyes. If it wasn't because of Li Xin's presence and Zhang Cai's reputation, they would have been rude to Zhang Cai long ago.

Li Xin laughed suddenly when he heard the words, pointed to Zhang Cai and said, "Mr. Zhang, do the so-called princes and generals have a kindness? Maybe when the Emperor Taizu raised up the rebel army, the old man would not have thought that he would have the time to rule the world. In history, no emperor would have thought that he would become an emperor one day. What does Mr. Zhang think?"

Zhang Cai was taken aback when he heard this, but he didn't make a sound, and just looked in other directions.It can be seen that he has no objection, which is enough to show that what Li Xin said is correct, but he is unwilling to admit it because of face.

"However, with the appearance of the two of you, it is really impossible for you to be named marquis and general." Li Xin said to Gu Sanmazi and Zhou Chuyun when he saw that the heat had come, "Although the two of you have thousands of soldiers, in the final analysis they are nothing more than sea warriors. Bandits are some people who rob houses and houses. The survival of these thousands of people is also the result of your robbery of business travelers along the way. Let me ask, if the two of you block the entire Yangtze River and there are no more business travelers along the way, how will you two survive? You two may be able to capture the city , using the navy to capture the city and land on land is already a weakness, do you two agree?"

Gu Sanmazi and Zhou Chuyun glanced at each other, their expressions were stunned, panic flashed across their eyes, Gu Sanmazi stood up, cupped his hands at Li Xin, and said, "I also ask the general for guidance."

"It's not a long-term thing to rob a house. Now the world is in chaos. Although I, Li Xin, have defeated Jiannu and Lin Danhan outside the pass, the situation in the north of the court has not improved. Although Jiannu was defeated, the foundation has not been damaged. North Korea However, what about the imperial court? If the imperial court governs Qingming, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, the establishment of slaves will naturally not affect the foundation of Ming Dynasty, but today's Daming has long been riddled with holes. The thieves, one after another, wiped out this group of bandits today, and there will be another one tomorrow. The imperial soldiers are exhausted, and the morale of the imperial army is low, and the food and grass are lacking. If it goes on for a long time, it will definitely not be able to suppress the internal rebels. There are many, most of the officials are corrupt officials, the court is intriguing, and has no intention of governing the world. Although the current emperor is diligent, the court is already in the sunset, even if Zhuge is reborn. The ruler sword saves the people from fire and water, even if they die, they can achieve a career and a reputation, and the two forces in the south of the Yangtze River are enough to deter the great river. In this situation, why not do something that is beneficial to the people of the world?" Li Xin stared Looking at the two of them, his tone was extremely sincere, and he helped them analyze the Tao.Even Zhang Cai on the other side couldn't help but listen with ecstasy.
