Datong Town Urban General Town Office.

"General, the person is brought here." Zhao Wu entered the house and reported.

Liu Heng moved his eyes away from the official document in his hand and said to him: "Bring people in. By the way, make him a cup of hot tea. No matter how you say it, they are all familiar people. Don't blame him."

Zhao Wu retreated.

Soon, two soldiers escorted a man into the house.

After entering the room, the man saw Liu Heng behind the table and said, "Master Liu Dong, long time no see. I didn't expect that after parting last time, I was already a prisoner when I saw him again."

"Find a seat for General Li." Liu Heng said to the soldiers who were escorting Li Kaiyang, and then said, "General Li considers himself a prisoner, but I don't regard General Li, you really as a prisoner."

There is a bench in the room.

The soldiers brought a bench and placed behind Li Kaiyang.

Li Kaiyang sat down with a big golden sword and said, "Justice Liu Dongzhu sent someone to escort me from Shanxi to Datong. I guess it's not just to meet him, just say anything!"

At this time, Zhao Wu, who had brewed tea, walked forward with a tea jar.

"Drink tea first, although it is not as good as the tea at General Li's home, it is also a good tea." Liu Heng raised his hand and made a gesture to use it.

Li Kaiyang was not polite at all. He took the big teapot from Zhao Wu, took it in front of him, and looked at it, saying, "When using this thing to drink tea, Liu Dongzhu is really open-minded. If there is a lack of tea sets, I will write a letter to send it back, and ask my family to give Li Dongzhu a good set of gaps."

"Thank you for General Li's kindness, but I'm used to using this." Liu Heng picked up the large teapot on the table and took a sip of the tea inside.

Li Kaiyang said: "With Liu Dongzhu's current status, he can't get anything he wants. He uses such things to entertain guests, but it is not very decent."

As he said that, he turned the big teapot in front of him.

"It's just for drinking water. This thing is very good. It contains a lot of it, which makes it quench your thirst." Liu Heng smiled and raised the teapot in his hand.

Li Kaiyang picked up the teapot and took a sip of his mouth, then took it away from his mouth, and said, "Take it away, I'm not used to this thing."

"Change General Li again and use a blue and white tea set." Liu Heng said to Zhao Wu.

Zhao Wu walked over, took the big teapot from Li Kaiyang's hand, and turned around and left the room.

"I won't be your prisoner, but I won't be a thief. I can't use this tea jar." Li Kaiyang leaned back and found that there was no back of the chair behind him, which was not the Grand Master's chair he usually sat on, so he quickly sat upright.

Liu Heng looked at Li Kaiyang with a smile and said, "General Li is not optimistic about the future of the tiger-shaped flag?"

"What future can the bandits have?" Li Kaiyang said contemptuously, "The court has sent 300,000 troops, of which the Liaodong army that defeated slave thieves has 100,000. It will soon arrive at Xuanda. Master Liu Dongzhe took advantage of the fact that he is now holding great power. It is better to enjoy it, and this life is worth it."

Liu Heng smiled and said, "The 300,000 army is a bit exaggerated, and he can only deceive people who don't understand. At most, the 100,000 army is the only 50,000 troops from Liaodong."

"Impossible. Liaodong has just won a great victory, and the slave thieves dare not come to spy again for the time being. It is a good opportunity for the imperial court to dispatch a large army to Xuanda to suppress the rebellion. How could it be that only 50,000 troops were sent? I don't believe it." Li Kaiyang frowned.

He is the deputy general in Yulin Town.

When he dispatched Yulin Town troops to Shanxi to suppress the rebellion, he had already learned that Liaodong sent 100,000 troops, and the imperial court dispatched 200,000 troops from the 12 guards, totaling 300,000 troops to encircle and suppress the bandits in Xuanda and other places.

The court used so many troops to encircle and suppress Liu thieves, and no matter what, he could not think of any possibility of failure.

After hearing his words, Liu Heng smiled and said, "It seems that Governor Li is not here, and General Li's news has been much blocked. I really believe that the court has dispatched an army of 300,000."

"Isn't it?" Li Kaiyang asked back.

Liu Heng shook his head slightly and smiled, "I just said that there is no so-called 300,000 army at all. Now the 100,000 army sent by the court has arrived at Yanqing Guard, and 50,000 of them are soldiers from Liaodong. The commanders of these 50,000 are Jiang Yingzhao and Man Gui."

"This is impossible! How could the court send such troops? Liaodong can send more troops. With Liaodong's troops, what kind of rebellion cannot be suppressed." Li Kaiyang was unwilling to believe it, thinking that Liu Heng was deliberately lying to him.

Liu Heng said: "Whether you believe it or not, this is the fact, and even if the court wants to send more troops from Liaodong, it may not be possible."

"There is no threat from slave thieves in Liaodong for the time being. Not to mention 100,000, even a 150,000 army can be sent." Li Kaiyang retorted.

The two great victories in Liaodong made many people think that the situation in Liaodong changed from defense to offensive, and it was sooner or later that the slave thieves were put down, and he was one of the members who supported this view.

Liu Heng took a sip of water and explained to him: "The threat of slave thieves has always been there. In fact, there is only one Ningyuan victory in the so-called two great victory in Liaodong. The great victory in Jinzhou does not exist at all. It is just a great victory made by Liaodong officials colluding with some people in the court. Although Ningyuan victory was won, the damage of slave thieves is not great, and it is far from hurting it. As long as the slave thieves have enough money and food to be used, they can completely siege Ningyuan City again."

"This is impossible." Li Kaiyang said, "Even if it is true, how can you know such a thing?"

He thought Liu Heng was lying to himself.

Liu Heng spread his hands and said, "If you want to find out whether it is true or not, you will naturally be able to figure it out. Moreover, this kind of thing will not last long. Why should I deceive such things?"

"Tell me this, what do you want to do?" Li Kaiyang stared at Liu Heng and asked.

Liu Heng leaned back and said, "I just told General Li that it is impossible for the imperial court to send 100,000 troops to wipe out my tiger flag. Moreover, among these 100,000 troops, only the 50,000 troops from Liaodong. As for the virtues of the 12 Guards, I believe General Li knows better than me. Such troops are not even as good as the peasants under the tiger flag."

"Fifty thousand Liaodong soldiers are enough, that is the elite general who has defeated Lao Nu's 130,000 army." Li Kaiyang said in a deep voice.

The 12 Guards of the personal army have long been abandoned. It is okay to bully ordinary bandits and bandits. Facing the powerful soldiers of the tiger flag, such the 12 Guards of the personal army have no power to fight.
