Chapter 363: Seeking Cooperation
Everyone in the acropolis saw He Haitao retreating, as if they had won a battle, the city was boiling, the hungry soldiers were not at all like people who had been hungry for a long time, and the cheering momentum shook the whole city. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
People are in good spirits when they are happy, is that what they mean? Strong joy can make people forget all mental pain, but after the joy is over, the lack of hunger, fatigue, and so on will come back again.
"Retreated." Yan Wenying muttered, this female general, after recuperation, has almost recovered.
"But are they really willing to retreat like this?"
As He Haitao and others retreated, Guan Yifu, Wei Qingming and others also returned to the Acropolis, after entering the city, Wei Qingming made such a sound, he thought that He Haitao should not stop there, just a temporary retreat, and maybe there would be some small actions behind the scenes.
"yes, it's worrying." Guan Yifu's eyes looked into the distance with deep eyes, as if he wanted to see the heart of the departing He Haitao.
"Don't be careless, it's best to send a few good hands who are good at hiding to keep an eye on him." Liu Yi suggested.
"Shadow, you go." He Yongjun said into the air, but Liu Yi knew that he was talking to the shadow guard hiding beside him.
Indeed, the Shadow Guard is very good at hiding his figure, and he is very fashionable to be a scout.
After arranging for the shadow guards to keep an eye on He Haitao and them, everyone also began to chatter, because many people hadn't seen each other for a long time, especially Qilin Ma, Lu Lao, and Shi Lao, who hadn't seen Liu Yi for a long time.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, my strength has improved a lot, and this is all out of the realm, and the speed is very fast." Lu Lao said with a smile, but he was really a little surprised that Liu Yi broke through so quickly, how young Liu Yi is, he is not yet twenty years old, right?
"Lu Lao is not bad, congratulations on finally becoming a saint! These days, Yiqing Palace has really worked hard for you to take care of it, I, the shopkeeper, am really a little unhappy in my heart, and I will definitely compensate you well in the future. Liu Yi said with a smile.
"You also know that you are the shopkeeper, and the cubs who accept people don't listen to discipline, and it takes a lot of effort to train them well." Shi Lao complained.
"If you don't obey discipline, you will be slapped to death!" Qilin Horse's violent temper, it is estimated that many people have left a psychological shadow and have been slapped by him.
"This is His Royal Highness the Third Prince, right?" Lu Lao looked at He Yongjun and asked Liu Yi.
Liu Yi nodded.
"Presumably the deer is old, you are always polite, and it is too polite to call His Highness, they are all their own people." He Yongjun said casually.
"We still have to have the number of courtesies that should be had, and we're just doing chores, haha. By the way, Your Highness, we have a great gift for you. Lu Lao waved his hand casually, and he didn't pay too much attention to a title.
"Oh? What a gift? Since Lu Lao insisted on calling himself His Royal Highness, He Yongjun was not reluctant, but was very curious about Lu Lao's so-called gift.
"When I came, I heard that His Highness's army was trapped in the Acropolis for several days, so it must have come to the time when they ran out of ammunition and food, right? Looking outside just now, many of His Highness's soldiers still had food in their mouths before they died, so they should have been lured out by food, right? Lu Lao said.
"Is it? Food? He Yongjun's eyes lit up, his army, what he needs most now is food!
"That's right, we packed a lot of food before we came, and now I'm going to have people distribute it to the brothers." Lu Lao smiled and nodded.
Then he waved his hand to one of his subordinates behind him, and the subordinate suddenly understood, took out a few bags from his mouth, came to the center of the field, opened the rope buckle on the bag, and threw it forward, and suddenly countless rich food fell from it.
And the bags turned into huge napkins and lay on the floor, on which the food was stacked with all sorts of food.
Looking at so much food, many soldiers swallowed their saliva, and the whole audience was swallowing saliva.
"Lu Lao, this ...... Thank you so much! He Yongjun thanked him excitedly, this is simply timely rain! Solved the urgent need of the moment.
"It's a trivial matter, let the brothers share the food." Lu Lao smiled and waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to take it to heart.
He Yongjun nodded heavily, turned around, and spit out two words, "Eat!" ”
Suddenly a group of soldiers were like wolves, and the food was like a flock of sheep, and in a short time it was occupied by the whole wolf pack.
Now no one cares about eating, and they don't care about anything to eat, anyway, as long as they grab the food in their hands, they stuff it into their mouths, and they are really hungry.
"Don't rush, don't worry, take your time, it's not enough." The soldiers who found it were choked and choked, and Lu Lao said a few words and told them to eat slowly.
He Yongjun also gave up his strict discipline for the time being, these soldiers did suffer a lot with him, let them indulge in eating and drinking now.
"Brothers, eat slowly, and be satisfied!" The unicorn horse also shouted on the side.
"Lu Lao, I'll take someone to the city wall to look at the wind, it's always good to have a few more pairs of eyes to stare at." The man who had just handed out the food said.
"Well, go ahead." Lu Lao smiled and nodded.
"Okay!" This subordinate received the order, and casually beckoned more than a dozen brothers from the Yiqing Palace, went to the city wall, and stayed at the head of the city to watch the wind.
In addition, he also placed the rest of the people and horses of the Yiqing Palace in the surrounding open space to rest, although he did not participate in the battle, but he was tired from the repeated journey.
"Lu Lao, are you very satisfied with this young man?" Liu Yi looked at the smiling Lu Lao and said.
"Yes, this Xiao Lu is shrewd and capable, and he is a good material." Lu Lao said with satisfaction.
"Well, Yiqing Palace needs such talents, and it will trouble Lu Lao Duoduo." Liu Yi nodded.
Liu Yi looked at He Yongjun and found that although he had a happy look on his face, his brows still did not stretch, and he should still be worried about He Haitao.
So Liu Yi walked over, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said, "What do you think, I'm worried." ”
"Didn't you knowingly ask?" He Yongjun shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Okay, what are you afraid of, people like He Haitao don't have to worry, when the time comes, he will be beaten so that he doesn't even know his own mother!" Liu Yi comforted, but immediately realized that there was something wrong with his words.
He Haitao's mother, isn't she He Yongjun's mother? Hurriedly apologized embarrassedly.
"It's okay, but I'm worried that he's messing up the whole East Soil." He Yongjun waved his hand, not caring about Liu Yi's words.
What He Yongjun is worried about now is that He Haitao will come in chaos, and he is afraid that He Haitao will damage the fundamental interests of the entire Dongtu for the sake of temporary interests, and it will cause irreparable losses at that time!
"It's useless to worry, let's think about what way to deal with him first." Liu Yi said.
"Method, no way, at present, our side is obviously not enough manpower, and the strength is not as good as theirs." He Yongjun shook his head, he also wanted to find a way, but there was really nothing he could do.
Liu Yi pouted outside the acropolis and motioned for He Yongjun to look outside.
He Yongjun looked out of the city suspiciously, and then seemed to understand Liu Yi's intentions, and asked with a hint of doubt: "You mean, you can ask for help from the people behind these men in black?" ”
"That's right, maybe you can ask for their help, and as for what they want, you can negotiate before you think about it." Liu Yi said.
He Yongjun pondered for a while, and felt that this method might work, because being able to send so many powerful black-clothed people showed that the strength of the person behind him must not be weak, and the means might not be able to reach the sky.
If you can really cooperate well with him, you should be able to defeat He Haitao, but He Yongjun is afraid that the person behind him is very big, what if he falls into the trap of others?
"I'll think about this matter again, and send someone out to contact them first." He Yongjun said, and then waved his hand to find Wei Qingming.
Wei Qingming is usually steady and mature, and he used to negotiate with people often, so it was most appropriate to send him.
After Wei Qingming understood the general situation, he also felt that this method was worth trying, so he came directly to the outside of the Acropolis and greeted the group of black-clothed people who had not yet left.
"May I ask who is the leader of you?" Wei Qingming came to the front of the group of black-clothed people and asked.
All the people in black turned their heads to Wei Qingming in unison, staring at him indifferently, this is Wei Qingming, if it was someone else, it was estimated that he would be scared.
Although the group of men in black looked at Wei Qingming, none of them spoke.
So, Wei Qingming asked again: "May I ask who is your leader?" ”
This time, a man in black finally came out of the crowd, with an ordinary appearance, did not speak, and remained indifferent like the other men in black.
"Hello, who is the Lord behind you?" Wei Qingming asked, he was no longer surprised by this kind of indifference, and he had encountered all the bad things.
"Is there anything wrong with you?" This time, the leading man in black spoke, his voice equally cold, like a lifeless machine.
"Our Highness wants to talk to him, if you can, can you take us to meet him?" Wei Qingming asked politely.
In negotiation, it is important to pay attention to who can calm down to the end, and the winner who persists until the end.
"I'm sorry, but our head won't see you." The leader of the man in black coldly refused.
Seeing this, Wei Qingming still didn't give up, but spoke again: "Our Highness wants to cooperate with your family master with sincerity, can't you really meet him?" ”
"No......" The leading man in black paused before he could say the word "can".
Then, as if suddenly he had changed his mind, he replied, "Yes, our head of the family will meet you tomorrow afternoon, in the nearby thorn forest." ”
After speaking, the leading man in black waved his hand and led the other men in black to disappear into the distance.
Wei Qingming shook his head, always feeling that if he really cooperated, it would not be a good thing.
