It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 835

Wang Sun Lishan had trouble sleeping and eating for several days, and it was only at this moment that his hanging heart settled down.

After meeting Wang Sun Lishan, Li Xingzai went to see the seventeen island owners again. Now he is not what he used to be, and he has proved his strength through a victory. I dare not say that the world can be expected, at least to prove that he has the qualifications to play at the gambling table.

The seventeen island owners all expressed their willingness to support Li Xingzai. Li Xingzai gave them the antidote, and Qipan Island immediately sent troops to Luofeng City to consolidate and expand Li Xingzai's current power.

It's just that the identity of Wang Sun Lishan can't be revealed yet. She still needs to continue to play the role of Mrs. Donghai, and she will only be able to show her true identity when she waits for a suitable opportunity.

Li Xingzai only stayed on Qipan Island for one day. If he hadn't coveted the gold and silver of Qipan Island's troops, he might not have come in person. After that, he immediately returned to Luofeng City to take advantage of the victory and expand his power.

Li Xingzai worked his way up and took down the two cities of Zhongli and Longxi. Li Xing, who fled back to Yangzhou in embarrassment, could not organize a resistance force at all, and the two cities of Zhongli and Longxi were successfully captured by Li Xingzai.

After capturing Zhongli and Longxi, Li Xingzai stopped expanding and began to consolidate the existing forces. His early crazy reserves came into play at this time, and he successfully took over Zhongli and Longxi.

Li Xingzai lacked military generals, but there was no shortage of civilian officials. The Cui Song remnant clan headed by Song Youqu, and the academy forces that had been subdued in advance, although these people were not all talented, they would have no problem managing the two cities at all.

After this battle, Li Xingzai completely opened up the situation in the East China Sea. Now his territory has three cities: Luofeng, Longxi, and Zhongli. The three cities are horns of each other, and the joint defense has formed an invincible fortress. The number of soldiers under his command has also expanded to 100,000. If you count the pirates of Qipan Island, the number of soldiers in the name is even more.

After the victory, Li Xingzai did not dare to sit idle. This time, taking advantage of the victory, he only took down the two cities of Zhongli and Longxi. It wasn't that Li Xingzai couldn't take down more cities, but even if he could take down, he might not be able to swallow it.

Digestion always takes some time. At present, Qipan Island in the East China Sea is still supported by Wang Sun Lishan who pretends to be the king. After several battles, many prisoners have also been captured. These people are also hot, and if they are not handled properly, they will get burned.

Qi Jiguang began to reorganize his army and took prisoners of war for his own use. Song Youqu and a group of people have been dispatched to various cities to handle local government affairs.

The biggest enemy is still Jiangnan Li Xing. How could Li Xing give up after eating such a big piece of meat from Li Xing. Although Li Xingzai defeated Li Xing's Jiangnan soldiers in this battle, Li Xing was not hurt.

Jiangnan is too rich, and occasional failures will not hurt the fundamentals, but Li Xingzai is different. He has won in a row, and it seems that there is no disadvantage, but as long as one defeat, he can be completely destroyed.

So Li Xingzai couldn't be careless. He concentrated all his energy and built a line of defense against Li Xing's counterattack.

However, what Li Xingzai couldn't understand was that Li Xing's counterattack had never arrived. He seemed to have forgotten what had happened and didn't want revenge at all.

Of course that's not the case. It's not that Li Xing doesn't want revenge, but... he doesn't have time.

Somehow, something happened, and in Yangzhou, there was another movement of the Righteous Religion.

The main members of the Justice Church were wiped out in Bingzhou, but there were more or less people who survived. To this day, the Justice Religion no longer has an organized army, but when the world is in chaos, many green forest heroes rise up.

They often like to make waves in the name of the Righteous Religion, and there are also small-scale operations of the Righteous Religion throughout the empire.

From this perspective, the Righteousness never really disappeared.

However, without a leader and without an army, they can't make waves.

But this time, the Justice Religion in Yangzhou is obviously different. There are signs of their activities in every city in Yangzhou. There is a scale, an organization, and of course there must be someone behind it, plotting some kind of purpose.

Burn a granary today, plan an assassination tomorrow. A fisherman found a piece of yellow silk in the belly of the fish, with the words: revenge for vengeance, vengeance for vengeance.

Everyone knows that the Righteous Religion was in the south of the Yangtze River and was first put out by Li Xing. Li Xing chased and blocked the members of the Righteous Sect, and his hands were covered with blood.

This time, the Justice Religion was clearly here for revenge.

So there are all kinds of legends in Jiangnan. Some people say: After Lin Shaoyu went down to Huangquan, even the King of Yan did not dare to judge him.

Everyone said it vividly, and some people claimed to see Yin soldiers walking at night in the middle of the night.

This kind of thing, of course, won't hurt Li Xing's roots, but it's too much to add to Li Xing. It's not that Li Xing didn't want to seek revenge on Li Xingzai, but he was pinned by rumors and couldn't make time.

He began to investigate this matter thoroughly, but said it was strange that this wave of people came and went quickly, like water splashed under the sun and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The most strange thing about this incident is Hong Leo, who has personally participated in the upper-level organization of the Justice Church. As far as he knew, the Righteous Religion had vanished into thin air, and now the people in the name of the Righteous Religion were often speculators.

This turmoil touched his mind, Master, Lin Shaoyu, those days of hiding in the east... People are not plants and trees, and who can be ruthless. After this incident broke out, Hong was listless and couldn't get his spirits up for many things.

In order to avoid the spread of rumors, Hong Liao also thought of an idea. He put on Dao Po, set up an altar in Yangzhou City, worshipped the sky above, and worshipped the thick soil below.

It's just like that, so pretending to be a ghost, this matter can be stopped. Li Xing was as refreshed as if he had killed a fly, and he finally found time to seek revenge from Li Xingzai.

However, taking advantage of this period of time, Li Xingzai had already consolidated the existing territory, and built the three cities into iron barrels.

Li Xingzai had only one city in his hands, and even when there were 30,000 soldiers and horses, Li Xing hadn't even taken down Fengcheng, let alone now? Faced with such a situation, Li Xing had no choice but to wait for the right opportunity.

As for when the opportunity is right, he doesn't know yet, but it's not at the moment anyway.

Li Xingzai also wondered why Li Xing didn't take the opportunity to call when he was weak. He, Li Xing, and Bao Ku Hong Liao didn't know that the matter of the Justice Religion didn't come out of nowhere.

To be precise, they are from Liangzhou.

It was the Jiangnan matter that spread to Liangzhou. Although Cheng Dalei wanted to support Li Xingzai, he was too far behind. So I came up with this method, which caused a storm in the city, and pinned Li Xing to Yangzhou.
