Chapter 4: Meeting the Prince
The division commander couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then said in righteous words: "How easy is it to give up the war? I'm a soldier, do you know why I'm fighting? ”
Li Yunlong spread his hands and said he didn't know. Then he said, "I would like to know why you are fighting!" ”
The division commander said: "Our country is in dire straits. At dawn, the people were miserable. The eldest prince killed his father in order to become king. How can I, as a soldier, sit idly by and ignore such a heinous crime?
Among the four princes, except for the second prince, all of them are ambitious and want to be kings. The second prince was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to watch the people suffer, so he ordered the righteous army to crusade against the eldest prince.
The third prince and the fourth prince did not join forces with the second prince to crusade against the eldest prince, but came to attack the second prince, which is really unjust! ”
Li Yunlong was stunned for a moment, thinking: What he said was completely different from what Ouyang Wen said. Second Prince, what kind of person is he?
He said: "I don't want to participate in the war in your country. Can I meet the second prince? ”
The division commander was silent for a moment: "Yes!" I'll contact the second prince! With that, he walked over to the side of the telephone, picked up the phone and dialed a number.
He flipped over, hung up the phone and said, "The second prince agrees with you!" However, there is one condition! ”
"On what terms?" Li Yunlong was a little puzzled, seeing that he still had to put forward conditions, he was so tall?
The division commander said: "The second prince said, you have to go alone!" ”
"Okay! No problem! "What are the conditions for Li Yunlong, it turns out that Jinpus is just worried that he is an assassin and wants to assassinate him.
"Okay, I'll arrange a car to send you to see the second prince right away!" The division commander smiled and immediately called the adjutant to explain the matter.
Suddenly, Li Yunlong felt that something was wrong. I don't know the Kot language, if I don't have Ouyang Wen by my side, how can I communicate with them. Busy said, "Wait! I'm going to bring an interpreter, or I won't be able to communicate with your second prince!" ”
Ouyang Wen translated the words, and the division commander was silent for a moment: "I ask the second prince!" ”
The division commander dialed the phone again, and soon hung up the phone and said, "The second prince agreed, let's go!" ”
Ouyang Wen was injured in the leg by shrapnel before, and he recuperated for three days, and he was carefully treated by Dongfang Yu and has recovered. He and Li Yunlong left with the division commander and got into an armored car.
Before leaving, Li Yunlong explained to his brothers that he should protect Long Yan well. Even if all the people here can't defeat Long Yan together, after all, Dongmen Valley is fighting.
In case of another war, he was worried that Long Yan would be injured. After all, artillery fire is ruthless, bullets don't have eyes, and in the face of hot weapons, no matter how high the martial arts are, it doesn't work.
The armored car drove out of the headquarters, Li Yunlong originally thought that he would go directly to another city to meet the second prince, but he didn't know that he had come to the airport.
The three of them got out of the armored car and got into an Apache helicopter gunship. After an hour's flight, we came to a palace with a very luxurious architecture.
The helicopter landed on the lawn of the garden, and as soon as the helicopter stepped on, the soldiers armed to the teeth stood on either side.
When they saw the division commander, they stood up and saluted one by one, showing great respect. Under the leadership of the division commander, through the corridor and courtyard, they came to a hall.
The layout of the hall is elegant, there is no luxury at all, and compared to this palace, it seems very low-key and connotative.
The division commander said, "Mr. Long, you wait a while, I'll go and report it!" ”
"Okay!" Li Yunlong responded.
The division commander entered the room inside, and Li Yunlong sat down on a chair beside him. Leisurely and uninhibited, he took out a cigar and lit it.
Seeing that Ouyang Wen was still standing there, he said, "Mr. Ouyang, you can also sit." If we keep standing, we will seem worthless! ”
"Second brother is right!" Ouyang Wen smiled and immediately sat down on the chair next to Li Yunlong.
Li Yunlong took a puff of his cigar and asked, "Mr. Ouyang, do you know this Jinpus?" ”
Ouyang Wen couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm sorry! I don't understand. However, I've heard some little stories about the second prince! ”
"Tell me about it!" Li Yunlong wants to know and get to know Jimps well.
Ouyang Wen said: "It is said that when Kimpus was ten years old, he took a walk in the back garden of the royal palace one day. He saw a maid fainting beside the lotus pond.
The maid was in her forties, her face was pale, and she looked like she was suffering from some serious illness. When Kimpus saw it, he immediately went to carry the palace maid. However, he was too small and had little strength to carry it.
At this time, two soldiers patrolled by. The soldiers saw that the second prince was carrying a palace maid, so they naturally wanted to help. However, the second prince did not let them carry it.
He said, 'Just help me carry her on my back, and I'll do it myself!' ’”
The two soldiers wondered and looked at each other. They were little soldiers, and they did not dare to disobey the prince's orders. It was only a brief hesitation, and he immediately did so.
The soldier was worried that the prince would not be able to carry his back, so the two men carried the maiden on either side. At that time, the prince felt very strange, he thought to himself: I just wanted to carry her, but she was very heavy. Why is it that now that it is on the body, it is lighter?
Later, the second prince went to ask his father, the king. When the king heard what had happened, he laughed: "Silly boy, that's because those two soldiers are carrying the palace maid and reducing the weight on your body.
Actually, the people who really carried the palace maid were the two soldiers, not you. You're just carrying it on the surface, but you're not actually carrying it! ”
After listening to his father's words, the second prince suddenly realized. He immediately found the two soldiers and thanked them for turning over the first. Then, he said meaningfully: "I am small now, I can't carry my back, you will help me." In the future, when the burden on my body is heavy, if I cannot carry it, will you share it for me? ”
The two soldiers said, "It is our duty to do whatever we do for the second prince." In the future, as long as the second prince can use us, we will do anything for the second prince at any time! ”
A few years later, both soldiers became generals, and they also became the right-hand men of the second prince.
Li Yunlong listened to this little story and couldn't help asking, "Who are those two generals?" ”
Ouyang Wen smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry! Second brother, I don't know who they are. I've just heard such a story! ”
At this time, the division commander and a middle-aged man in his forties walked out. The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Let me answer your question!" ”
Li Yunlong stood up and looked straight at the middle-aged man: "Can you speak Chinese?" ”
He smiled: "I like Chinese culture very much, so I learned Chinese. Then he returned to the above and said, "Those two soldiers, one of them is my general, Hoda." As he spoke, he pointed to the division commander beside him.
Then he said, "The other soldier is my current Marine Corps commander, Sai Yong!" ”
Huoda introduced: "This is our second prince! ”
"Hello!" Li Yunlong shook hands with Gimpus in the form of a state of etiquette in China.
"Hello!" Jinpus didn't have a little arrogance, and shook hands with Li Yunlong. Immediately shook hands with Ouyang Wen.
He said: "Chinese pay attention to integrity, I heard Hoda say that you want to talk to me about business, and you are Chinese, I immediately agreed." If it were someone from another country, I wouldn't have agreed! ”
Li Yunlong said: "Integrity is the foundation of life, if a person loses integrity, he will lose the value of life." ”
"Mr. Long is so right!" Kimpus laughed heartily, "I like you as a friend!" ”
"Thank you!" Li Yunlong was a little flattered.
Gimpus made a gesture of please: "Please be seated!" ”
The four of them sat down one by one in the chairs, and Gems had tea brought to them. He said, "This is Longjing from your China, Mr. Long taste it!" ”
Li Yunlong tasted it and said apologetically: "Although Longjing is our good tea in China, I am not a person who understands tea, I'm sorry!" ”
"It's okay!" Gimpus didn't mind, but said, "The tea ceremony is very profound, in fact, I am not a person who understands tea, I just like to drink tea." Especially your Chinese Longjing! ”
"Thank you!" Li Yunlong smiled, "The second prince loves our Chinese Longjing, this is our honor. ”
"No, no, no!" Kinpus waved his hand, "It should be said that it is my honor that I can drink your Chinese Longjing." ”
"The second prince is too polite!" Li Yunlong suddenly found that this Jinpus was very modest, and he didn't look like a person who wanted to fight for the world and kill each other.
Gimpus smiled and said, "I heard from General Hoda that Mr. Long has a batch of arms to give me. The condition is, after I unify Kote, I will assign a piece of land to Mr. Long? ”
"Yes!" Li Yunlong nodded his head, "I do have a batch of arms in my hand, which is enough for the second prince to unify the country and quell the war." However, I only give it to the Lord! ”
Jinpus heard what Li Yunlong said, and pondered for a moment and said, "Then in Mr. Long's heart, what kind of person is the master?" ”
Li Yunlong said: "Only politicians who love the people, solve difficulties for the people, and regard the people as their family members can be counted as masters." Of course, these are not enough. It's just a premise! ”
"Presumably, Mr. Long has just come to our country, and he doesn't know much about the lives of the people in the places I rule. I think Mr. Long should walk around first and take a look! ”
"It's good!" Li Yunlong didn't plan to reach an agreement with Jimpus so soon, after all, it was not a trivial matter. If he gave the arms to a tyrant, he would not only harm Kurt's people, but also have no guarantee for his future.
"That's good! Mr. Long lived in my palace for a while, and went to my city to see and learn about the life of my people! Gimps is unhurried and always has a smile on his face.
Li Yunlong didn't say much: "Okay, let's just decide." I'll find out first, and if it works, I'll give you the arms, and you can just agree to my terms!" ”
"No problem!" Gimpus readily agreed. He really needed advanced weapons to arm his troops. If the troops are not well equipped and armed, they may be annihilated by the two younger brothers at any time.
Li Yunlong got up and said, "Then let's say goodbye first, and come to visit the second prince another day!" ”
"Good! I'm waiting for you! Gimpus's face was confident, and he was in a trance that Li Yunlong would definitely reach an agreement with him.
"Farewell!" Li Yunlong didn't sit anymore, and left after speaking.
Gimpus said, "General Huo, send Mr. Long and his friends!" ”
"Yes, Your Highness the Prince!" Hoda looked respectful. Then he made a gesture of please: "Mr. Long, please come with me!" ”
