Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his face and said in a deep voice: "I helped you fight off the pursuit of the officers and soldiers, which can be regarded as saving your lives. How dare you come to me to share the property in Bazhou City?"
When Zhang Xianzhong saw Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned down, his face also sank, and he laughed and said: "I originally ran all the way to the west, but I didn't seem to be caught by the officers and soldiers. If your Guangyuan hadn't blocked the way in front, Why should I worry about not being able to escape the pursuit of the officers and soldiers? You blocked my way and then came to help me, what kind of help is this?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was unhappy, but his expression did not change. He still lowered his voice and said, "So, it's my fault?"
Zhang Xianzhong snorted twice and didn't answer, but looking at his expression, it seemed that he acquiesced to Zhu Yuanzhang's words.
Cao Cao and Luo Rucai, who was standing next to him, saw that the situation was not good and quickly jumped between the two of them and persuaded them: "Oh, two eldest brothers, please don't be angry. It's just a trivial matter. Don't make such a fuss over a trivial matter."
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him: "You also want 30%?"
Luo Rucai quickly waved her hand and said: "No! Alas, it doesn't matter if I don't want it. I'm just afraid that your two families will quarrel, so I came here to try to persuade you to have a fight. How about we brothers make an agreement in the middle and I don't want my three achievements? You two The family is divided How about Brother Zhu Ba gets 60%, and the Eighth Kings get 40%?" He is worthy of being the famous leader of the Thirty-sixth Battalion, and he would rather give up his own interests than the two families. The relationship is smoothed out.
Before Zhu Yuanzhang could speak, Zhang Zhongxian rushed to say: "Hey, Luo Rucai. If you don't want your share, I have no reason to be 40 or 60 with him. If it's 50 or 50, there's no need to negotiate."
Wang Er, who was behind Zhu Yuanzhang, suddenly became furious and shouted: "Zhang Xianzhong, don't be shameless, you guys. We had a good stay in Shaanxi. If we weren't worried that you would be killed by the officers and soldiers, why would we go to Sichuan to wade in this muddy water?" "
Zhang Xianzhong said in a weird manner: "Don't think that I am a fool. Although you came to Sichuan to help us in name, anyone with a good mind will know that. If I am killed by the soldiers, you will not be able to sit still in Shaanxi, and sooner or later you will be killed." The officers and soldiers are killing They are all mountain rats that came out of a hole. If they don't form a nest together, they will all be caught by cats. To put it nicely. Help me? Hahahaha! It's not to help yourselves!"
He said these few words. Wang Er, an honest man, was dumbfounded because what Zhang Xianzhong said made sense, and Wang Er was a reasonable person. After hearing this, I felt embarrassed to say anything else. I opened my mouth wide and couldn't say a word for a long time.
At times like this, we have to rely on people who are unreasonable and good at crawling sideways to speak. Xu Renjie suddenly took out a fan from his arms, threw it away, put on a very learned look and walked out with a smile: "Eight Great Kings, what you said is funny, we Zhu Jun don't have as many people as you." Huahuachangzi, we came to Sichuan simply to do good deeds, how can we have your idea of ??putting interests first? Our Zhu Jun talks about doing justice for heaven, doing everything for our brother's loyalty, and never making small calculations."
What he said might be enough to deceive a five-year-old child, but it was a bit ridiculous to tell it to Zhang Xianzhong. Zhang Xianzhong was so angry that he said: "You are telling lies with your eyes open! Do justice for heaven? Be loyal to brothers? How can you do that?" Don¡¯t you say that you care about all the people and want to save the world? Stop talking nonsense to me here. I want 50% of the gold, silver and jewels in the city. If you give them to me, you will still be brothers. If you don¡¯t give them back, you will become enemies from now on!"
Xu Renjie snorted and said in a strange way: "I will personally reward you with five taels of silver, do you want it? I have a total of ten taels, and these five taels are 50% of my possessions"
He made a joke here, but it angered a young man behind Zhang Xianzhong. This man was carrying a long gun and wearing a suit of polished iron armor. He said angrily: "How dare you insult my adoptive father?"
Xu Renjie took a closer look. This young man looked vaguely familiar, but he couldn't remember his name. After thinking hard for a long time, I finally realized that this child was Li Yichun. In the third year of Chongzhen's reign, when the 36th Battalion passed Huanglong Mountain, Li Yichun helped Zhang Xianzhong deliver a message. At that time, Xu Renjie and Zhu Yuanzhang saw this child and went out to report the message. Renjie also asked Zhu Yuanzhang if he wanted to kill him. Unexpectedly, after a few years, he had grown from a teenage boy to a majestic young man, and he looked somewhat imposing with a spear in his hand. (See Chapter 186.)
How could Xu Renjie be afraid of him? He said with a smile: "Did I insult him? I gave your adoptive father five taels of silver with good intentions, but you actually said that I insulted him. Alas it's really"
Li Yichun had already emerged among Zhang Xianzhong at this time, and was respectfully called "King Xiaochai" and "Little Yuchi". Due to his high status, of course his name had to be changed, so he seriously took a more powerful-sounding name Li Dingguo.
He waved the spear in his hand and roared angrily: "The thief insulted my adoptive father, I will fight with you." With the spear in his hand, he made an own move and flew out directly from Zhang Xianzhong's back. The spear was like Wandering dragon, fast and ruthless.
Xu Renjie didn¡¯t know martial arts, so when he was hit by a gunshot, he was frightened and couldn¡¯t dodge. Fortunately, Ma Xiaotian was always on guard against the opponent's sudden attack and injured Zhu Yuanzhang. His eyes were locked on the person opposite him. As soon as Li Dingguo fired his gun, Ma Xiaotian immediately jumped out and raised his shield.
Hearing a loud bang, Ma Xiaotian was actually hit and was knocked back several steps. He finally managed to stand firm with a stake. He couldn't help but feel horrified in his heart. The young man opposite him was so powerful. Fortunately, he used a shield to block it. If he had used a knife or a gun to fight, he might not be able to withstand this blow.
With Li Dingguo's move, both sides could no longer maintain a friendly conversation. Wang Er could not hold back his temper for a long time. He jumped out with a single arrow step and moved the iron rod in his hand forward to take Li Dingguo's second shot. Seeing that Wang Er looked like an iron tower and the iron rod in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand kilograms, Li Dingguo did not dare to take it forcefully. He gently retracted the iron gun in his hand, held up two spear flowers, and used his skillful strength to greet Wang Er. .
The two exchanged two or three moves, but there was no winner. Moreover, Wang Er seemed to be suppressed by the opponent, which made the faces of all the leaders on Zhu Jun's side change color. Only Zhu Yuanzhang was not moved, because he had known for a long time that Li Dingguo was not a mortal. He and Zheng Chenggong later became known as the twins of the Southern Ming Dynasty. He was the most shining general in the late Ming Dynasty. His ability to grow was extraordinary and he could suppress Wang Er. Not necessarily strange.
At this time, people on both sides who were trying to stop the fight jumped out. In the middle of a negotiation like this, they suddenly drew their guns and started fighting. It was not a glorious thing for the generals on both sides to fight together. Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Xianzhong were both heroes, not gangsters. They were very particular. He has great interests and will not allow his subordinates to fight to the death in this situation. So both sides spoke out at the same time, calling Wang Er and Li Dingguo back.
But there was nothing to talk about next. Zhu Yuanzhang said with a cold face: "Since Bazhou has been swallowed up by me, there is no reason why I haven't handed it over to you. If you, Zhang Xianzhong, get some city, you won't be willing to part with it." Give me a few percent. In short, this is how it is. If you don't accept it, just come and fight! Even if the fight damages the vitality of the rebels, I won't be afraid."
Hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong suddenly laughed ferociously: "You are not afraid, so I am afraid? Just fight! We will both be injured, and the officers and soldiers will die together, hahahahaha."
The two of them turned around and left without even talking to each other. Luo Ru was left in the middle and smiled bitterly: "Brothers, don't be like this Can't we sit down and have a good talk? I don't want to die together or something like that. ¡¡±
Seeing that both of them ignored him, Luo Rucai looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a sad face, then turned to look at Zhang Xianzhong, and finally sighed deeply and shouted: "Eight Kings, don't leave, I'll pay for that money I'll do it" Let¡¯s get out of the general assembly!¡±
When he said this, both of them stopped, and a strange look flashed across Zhu Yuanzhang's face. Is Luo Rucai actually willing to pay that money? He is just a thief who goes around robbing women. Although he claims that he rescued all those women, he can only deceive little girls like Li Jieqiong. How can Zhu Yuanzhang believe it? Zhu Yuanzhang knew that this man and Xini had certain abilities, but he didn't expect that he would be willing to make such a sacrifice for the sake of the overall situation. At this point, people couldn't help but take a high look.
Zhang Xianzhong also stopped and looked at Luo Rucai with a funny look on his face.
Luo Rucai said with a sad face: "Brother, I came out to hang out just to live a comfortable life. I have a few women to warm my bed, but I don't have any ambitions. Money too much is too hot. Since the Eight Kings brothers are short of money, I will take it." How about I give you one hundred thousand taels of silver? In this small state city, even if we dig out all the gold and silver in the houses of big families, 50% of it will only be this amount. Brother, I have left the head office, right?"
Zhu Yuanzhang did not interrupt, but Zhang Xianzhong said: "Do you really want to pay this money?"
Luo Rucai said: "I really want to ask you two eldest brothers not to fight and hurt your brother's harmony. Don't look at the fact that we won a small battle here in Bazhou. How many officers and soldiers have we beaten? What a slap in the back." They are all officers and soldiers they are enough for us to fight. Don't cause trouble in a place like this."
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Xianzhong understand what he said better than him, but it is impossible for Zhu Yuanzhang to compromise with a little thief like Zhang Xianzhong. Zhang Xianzhong is a life-threatening person who does not care about anything for the sake of face, but this does not mean that the two heroes do not know how to step down. , Luo Ru just made such a disturbance, Zhang Xianzhong hurriedly got off the donkey along the slope, but said with a ferocious smile: "In that case, I will give Brother Cao Cao a face. I don't want this Bazhou, and whoever wants it can take it."
Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and turned back to the city without even bothering to say a word.
I only saw Zhang XianzhongLuo Rucai was dragged there. After a while, Luo Rucai's army pushed a row of carts into Zhang Xianzhong's camp. Zhang Xianzhong's army laughed wildly and withdrew to the south.
