The moment the stone chamber opened, Gu Lin had already opened his eyes.

The aura of the people who came was very strong, and they were somewhat familiar, neither Gu Tianbei nor the two little maids.

Gu Lin looked at the entrance of the passage and saw Emperor Xia walking in.

Still sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, Gu Lin smiled slightly at Emperor Xia and did not speak.

Emperor Xia came to the opposite side of Gu Lin, sat down cross-legged, he looked at this friend's son carefully, and sighed.

I didn't see it in October, in the eyes of Emperor Xia, Gu Lin not only had his appearance changed, but his temperament had also changed drastically, he was sitting there, but he gave Emperor Xia a profound feeling that he couldn't see through.

The soft face became resolute, and the facial features became angular and angular, and some shadows of the dragon were vaguely visible, but the young man in front of him gave him an unusually calm feeling.

What surprised Emperor Xia the most was Gu Lin's eyes, I don't know why, Gu Lin's black and white eyes had a hint of evil in them, which seemed to attract people's eyes.

"Lin'er, you've grown up. Emperor Xia finally spoke.

Gu Lin didn't speak, he still sat cross-legged, quietly looking at Emperor Xia.

Emperor Xia sighed and said, "The one-year retreat period has not yet ended, but I have to come to disturb your cultivation. ”

Gu Lin still didn't speak, waiting for the following.

Looking at the silent Gu Lin, Emperor Xia did not have any abnormality, and said to himself: "It has been more than ten months since the war between Jiuxia and the two countries began, and at this moment the northern land is in crisis, and reinforcements are urgently needed, and I need a new army commander to lead the team to support." ”

Gu Lin frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Why do you think of me?"

"Because you have a unique advantage. "Xia Huang Road:

"Oh?" Gu Lin looked at Emperor Xia meaningfully.

"No one knows you're a dragon, so no one knows what you can do, but I do. Emperor Xia said slowly: "It doesn't hurt to tell you one more thing, the interior of the summer capital is empty, I only have two people and horses left in my hands, the Praetorian Guard and the guard battalion, these two centaurs cannot leave the summer capital, once they leave, I am afraid that the inside of the summer capital will be out of control, not only the people of the summer capital have no sense of security, I am afraid that the imperial city is also in danger." To tell the truth, I have no troops to send for the so-called reinforcements. ”

Gu Lin smiled in surprise and wondered: "Since there are no soldiers to send, but what Emperor Xia just said let me be the commander of the new army, and I have no soldiers in my hands, how can I lead the team to support the Northland?"

Emperor Xia smiled slightly, from Gu Lin's words, he had already heard what Gu Lin meant, and Emperor Xia continued: "Yes, I really don't have any soldiers for you, but you may be able to form an army by yourself." ”

"I'm an army of my own?" looked at Emperor Xia's gaze became deep, and Gu Lin's eyes were even more puzzled.

"Listen to me and tell you slowly. Emperor Xia thought for a while and said slowly: "Let's talk about your current identity first, you are the second young man of the Great Marshal's Mansion, and the son of the head of the Gu family, there are a lot of foreign disciples of the Gu family, if you raise the flag and say that you are from the first army to help the north, naturally there will be some disciples of the Gu family to join, and if you come to the north to aid the north, the Beichuan Gu clan will not sit idly by, and will definitely give you supplies." ”

"Yes. Gu Lin nodded, he was already thinking about the feasibility of this matter, and after thinking about it, he asked, "But this doesn't seem to be enough, is it not enough?"

"That's just one of them. Emperor Xia smiled slightly and said, "Don't forget your identity as a dragon gu, Hongfa Temple will also be your backing, you can borrow warrior monks from Hongfa Temple as soldiers." ”

Gu Lin's eyes moved slightly, remembering that he was also the identity of the little uncle of Dalong who was also the two masters of Huiguang and Huiming, he couldn't help but smile, nodded, and said, "Well, this is also true." ”

Seeing that Gu Lin nodded without the slightest hesitation, a trace of doubt flashed in Emperor Xia's eyes, but he continued to add: "I can give you a secret decree to put pressure on Hongfa Temple and ask them to lend you troops." ”

Gu Lin smiled faintly and said, "That's not necessary, I just need to open my mouth, and I believe that the two masters will lend me soldiers." ”

"Oh!" Although Emperor Xia didn't know why Gu Lin was so sure, he also had some more confidence in Gu Lin forming an army on his own.

Gu Lin thought for a moment and continued to ask, "What else?" 398

Emperor Xia smiled with satisfaction and said, "The most important group of people actually have to be subdued by yourself." ”

"This ...... I do not quite understand. Gu Lin thought about it and had no clue, so he could only ask, "Who to subdue?"

Emperor Xia said: "Lin'er, do you know that there are still a number of hidden forces in the Xia Capital? ”

"Hidden forces?" Gu Lin's eyes lit up, "What Emperor Xia said, but the Xia Capital Gangster?"

"Yes. Seeing that Gu Lin was able to understand at one point, Emperor Xia was overjoyed, "Then do you know which three are the three major gangsters in Xia Capital now?"

"The Horse Gang, the Sword Society, and the Holy Martial Society. Gu Lin said slowly.

"You are wrong," Emperor Xia said with a smile: "Now the pattern of the underground forces in the Xia capital has changed, and it is the horse gang, the sword society and the Lin Xiangyu tripartite. ”

"Lin Xiangyu?" Gu Lin's mouth opened slightly for the first time, it seemed that the Xia Capital gangster he had formed himself was not so powerful, right?

Emperor Xia explained: "You will know after you go out, Lin Xiangyu can no longer speak the same day, he has been recruiting troops and buying horses, and his talents are very prosperous, and he has steadily competed with the Horse Gang and the Sword Society, as for the Holy Martial Society, it is already a thing of the past." ”

Gu Lin said with great interest: "Emperor Xia asked me to use the underworld method to subdue the other gangsters with Lin Xiangyu?"

"It's also right and it's not right. Emperor Xia nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "This horse gang leader Ma Zhengkun is a downright person, the horse gang has been selling horses in Jiuxia for generations, and has long been integrated into Jiuxia, a few days ago, this horse gang leader also spontaneously organized people and horses, planning to support the north, but relying on their hasty rescue of the rabble, I'm afraid it's just in vain." ”

"I see. Gu Lin nodded, "I can use the name of Lin Xiangyu to annex the Ma Gang, and then take advantage of the situation to subdue the Sword Society, so that the underground forces of the Xia Capital can be used by me, and in this way, I will have the foundation of a new army." ”

This is easier said than done. Emperor Xia sighed and said: "Beining City is in danger at the moment, and I was forced to come to you helplessly, Old General Liu Zhenlong and Old General Yang Zhong have been deeply encircled and are waiting for rescue. ”

Hearing this, Gu Lin's expression froze, "What about Liu Yue'er?"

"The Southern Tiger and the Northern Lion are worried about the safety of their respective fathers, and they have already rushed to the Northland three months ago, fortunately, their master Haoran Yuan Palace is worried about their safety, and they also went to the Northland with them. ”

"Ah!" Hearing this, Gu Lin, who had been in the ancient well, suddenly stood up suddenly, "Liu Yue'er, Yang Qingfeng, and my brother are also in the Northland?"

"Yes. Emperor Xia nodded.

Gu Lin said with a solemn expression: "In this case, without further ado, I will go out of the customs tomorrow morning and go to Lin Xiangyu." ”

At this time, Emperor Xia took out a golden arrow and handed it to Gu Lin: "This is a golden arrow, you have put it away, this new army is formed by you, you can decide what the name is, and I can only wait for your good news in the palace." ”

Gu Lin took the golden arrow, took a deep breath, and his gaze became deep.

"Emperor Xia, please rest assured, I will find a way to complete the integration within three days and rush to the aid of the Northland as soon as possible. ”

"One more thing. Emperor Xia looked at Gu Lin and said, "Tomorrow morning, I will select an elite team of three hundred people from the palace, led by Xia Ziyin, to come to you to report." You don't have to worry, I will explain that he and his subordinates are in your charge, and life and death are also up to you, so that you will have a trustworthy personal guard team to protect your safety. ”

"Xia Ziyin, little prince?" Gu Lin frowned slightly and looked at Emperor Xia.

"Yes, you don't have to worry too much, recently he asked for war every day, but I didn't dare to put this big thing in his hands, I said, although he is my son, you don't have to be taboo, he came to your hands to listen to the order, I will give his life and death to you, this young eagle always has to fly out to see itself in order to spread its wings, the battlefield is ruthless, whether he lives or dies, I will never blame you. ”

"Alas....... Gu Lin sighed, he naturally knew what Emperor Xia meant, but with such a burden, how could he let the little prince fall into a dangerous situation?

"Okay, Emperor Xia, please go back, I already know how to do it, but I still need to consider the details. Gu Lin sat cross-legged on the stone platform again, closed his eyes, and said softly:

"Early tomorrow morning, I will go to the headquarters of Lin Xiangyu and take someone to meet Ma Zhengkun, the leader of the Ma Gang. ”
