Chapter 7: Born Leaders

Compared with the boiling crowd, several officials on the field showed a trace of regret, and many soldiers showed indignation, believing that the other party had deceived first, and it was not a real skill at all.

Meng Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head, winning is winning and losing, he had already taken the initiative to admit defeat just now.

There is a good saying that "when you come out to mix, you have to pay it back", he had used this trick when he had a trick with Wu Hei before, but the slight difference was that he shattered the entire ring before he jumped into the air, and Wu Hei didn't have time to react and stepped on the ground first.

The two of them ended in a draw, this time he took the initiative to admit defeat, but there is no shame in losing, the most important thing is that he has achieved his goal, while showing his ability, invisibly, he has also got closer to the people of the Gaoqiong tribe, especially this pair of grandchildren.

In this respect, he was worth losing to this girl more than winning everyone.

"Roar, I won, grandpa, did you see it, wow, he admitted defeat," Gu Ye jumped up and down like a little sparrow, and ran to the old man excitedly.

"Presumptuous! If it weren't for the mercy of the general's men, you would have been defeated," the old man glared at the girl, and although he was insulting angrily, he still couldn't hide the doting in his eyes.

"Haha, it's okay, I'm willing to lose the bet," he laughed and walked over to his grandson.

"You see he has admitted it," Gu Ye spat out his little fragrant tongue and affectionately grabbed the old man's arm.

"You are free now," Meng Yun nodded and said with a smile, and then turned to the ground and pointed to the table of food that was knocked to the ground, "But you also destroyed the table of wine and meat, and you can't blame me." ”

"Really?" Gu Ye's big eyes seemed to be flashing with little stars.

"It's more real than gold," Meng Yun was amused by the girl's appearance, including Jing Jian behind him, and several officials couldn't help laughing, they had never seen such an innocent girl.

"Roar grandpa, did you hear that?" Gu Ye jumped and cheered happily, pulling the old man's arm and shaking and shaking, not caring at all about the wine and meat that was knocked to the ground.

"Oh, I heard, I heard," the old man nodded at him again, "The general is benevolent!"

"Don't say that, old gentleman, I'm here to correct the names of all the warriors," Meng Yun hurriedly waved his hand.

"What does this mean?" the old man and several slaves nearby all looked puzzled.

Meng Yun raised his hand to signal a few people not to worry, and then under the puzzled eyes of everyone, he turned around and stepped into the broken ring, and shouted loudly at the audience, "A true warrior can be killed, but not humiliated!"

"This is a forged edict, I originally wanted to use it in exchange for your trust," Meng Yun pulled out the fake edict prepared in advance from his bosom, "but I have changed my mind now, deception will never be trusted! You are all true warriors, and you deserve my respect!"

Speaking of this, he threw the edict into the brazier, and then a puff of green smoke rose, and the false edict was burned to ashes, this improvised act meant that he had deceived Gu Ye.

"Brother Yun, you," Jing Jian wanted to say and stopped.

The old man frowned when he heard this, while the others were still confused, and exchanged their heads, "What do you mean?" "What's going on?" "I don't know......

"The wolf clan in the north is now expanding in a big way, and everywhere the wolf clan army goes, corpses are everywhere, and there is not one of the ten households," Meng Yun looked around at everyone in the audience as he spoke, "The wolf clan wizard uses the blood and soul of a living person to sacrifice and refine spells, and the sacrificed person will turn into a dried corpse, and the methods are extremely cruel! Among these people are old people and women, as well as teenage children and young children, even some deep mountain tribes have not been spared, this is what I have seen with my own eyes!"

At this time, the old man was still frowning and silent, most of them had nothing to do with themselves, with the mentality of watching the show, although a small number of people were skeptical, but other than that, they didn't react much.

"Anyone who lives in this land can't stay out of it now, so what I want to say here is," Meng Yun said and suddenly raised his voice, "Please give up your past enmity and fight against the wolf clan together!"

At the moment when he finished speaking, the crowd was in an uproar, "We don't even have a home, why should we help you?" "Yes" "Why......

"You are wrong, don't help me, I, like you, am not from the Northern Xuanguo!" You can judge for yourself based on my accent," Meng Yunchong was the first to speak, and after speaking, he looked around at the crowd, "But what I want to say is that now it is not only the people of the Northern Xuanguo, but also not only me, a foreign race, including the friends of the Xia Kingdom and some of the demon clans, and even the enemies of life and death in the past, everyone has abandoned their previous suspicions!"

At this moment, the crowd gradually quieted down, and a small number of smart people began to savor what he said, but there were still many people who ignored him, and he was not surprised, after all, people were telling the truth, their own homes were destroyed, and what heart did they have to fight for others?

"Yes, your homes have now been destroyed," he shouted again at the crowd, his voice sonorous, "but you are still alive, and there is hope for continuity in life, and there is no shame in defeat, and it is a coward to give up the struggle!

At this moment, everyone bowed their heads and remained silent, their faces a little complicated.

"This person's name is Jing Jian, you should all know him, it is true that he is the son of the Beixuan royal family, but he is also a kind-hearted person, otherwise I, a foreigner, would not help him," Meng Yun pointed to Jing Jian in the audience and said.

The whole valley was quiet, only his voice echoed in the mountains, one moment generous, one moment lonely and sad, rendering everyone's emotions.

"At the time of the crisis, it was he who believed in me and let me be the general, and Blackwater City reversed the decline of the previous day in one fell swoop, please give me a chance to follow me to Blackwater City to have a look," Meng Yun said here and slowed down his tone, "Just a month ago, the homeless people and friends of the demon clan from all over the city joined forces to thwart the attack of the wolf clan! I am currently planning a counterattack against the wolf clan, so I need your help!"

It was at this time that people began to look up and listen.

"After defeating the wolf clan, I and Kyomi Gongzi will definitely try our best to ensure that you return to the clan land, and do everything we can to help you rebuild your homeland," he gradually raised his voice as he spoke, "I am here to promise you! One day, I am bound to ask the monarch to pardon you and let him repent for your deceased family members, and you can also use this to erect a monument to the departed war spirits, so as to comfort those heroic souls who have died defending their homeland!"

Just as he finished the last sentence, more than seventy percent of the people's eyes were already red, and some of them were already crying, and Jing Jian frowned and said nothing.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that these people were not moved by his deeds, but by what he said and the people he mentioned. The Gao Qiong tribe values love and righteousness, maybe he can promise with profit and deceive with false edicts, but it is far better to be sincerely moved.

This is a simple world, and everyone's concept of the country may not be clear, but the understanding of home is the same, parents and wives, true love......

At this time, Jing Jian stepped onto the stage at the right time and took the initiative to kneel down to everyone, "I apologize to everyone on behalf of my father, and after the victory of the war, General Yun and I will fulfill our promise together!"

At this moment, the first big man to fight with him wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, turned around and arched his hand at the old man, "Elder, Gongzi and the general are honest and don't deceive me, do you see if it's ......?"

"Good grandpa," Gu Ye hugged the old man, the pear blossom brought the rain, and cried into tears.

He had deceived this kind-hearted little girl just now, but the other party looked at the old man with a begging gaze regardless of his previous suspicions.

At this moment, each slave's eyes also shifted to the old man, waiting for the old man to make a final decision.

"The old man dares to ask the general, what if we are unwilling to obey the arrangement?" the old man's face did not change.

When everyone burst into tears, the old man was the only one whose expression never changed, not that the other party was hard-hearted, this was a manifestation of rich experience, and the old man was vigilant from beginning to end.

"Elder, please rest assured, even if you are unwilling to help me, I will still fulfill my promise today, not only that, but I will also release everyone on the spot and distribute rations to everyone," Meng Yunchong solemnly clenched his fists at the old man, "But I'm sorry, I can only give you five days' rations each, and the rest of the food will be provided to those heroes who have not given up the struggle so far!"

"After this, I will gather more people to join us, including these black-armored soldiers who have fought against you behind me, and each of them will soon follow me to fight to the death against the wolf army!"

Meng Yun said and looked around at the crowd, and finally his eyes fell on the old man, "Please make a decision!"

Everyone in front of them gasped, but they didn't say a word, staring at the old man, and the red in many people's eyes was still there.

As the old saying goes, "a spit is a nail".

If he says the next word, he will definitely do it, whether the Gaoqiong tribe is attached or chooses to part ways, he will not go against what he has said.

However, this does not mean that it is his true thoughts, which may not be heard by others, but the old man must be able to hear it, and his words are actually threatening.

The Gaoqiong tribe walked out of the mountains, basically there was no way out, and they would eventually be wiped out by the wolf clan.

Even if you stay in the mountains and eat five days' rations, you will still freeze to death and starve to death. After all, winter is not a suitable season for hunting, not to mention that the prey within a radius of five hundred miles has long been wiped out by the wizards of the county town.

It's a game, it's a choice, and it may not be very kind to do so, but the reality is so cruel, black is black, white is white, and there is no gray area in between.

In this process, whether it is threat or force, it doesn't matter what some people think, he just wants to tie as many people as possible to the chariot and lead them to fight the wolf clan to win a chance to survive.

The original intention of the control law is the same, he doesn't care what some people think, and those who survive in the end will only celebrate the aftermath of the catastrophe, rather than caring about the past gains and losses.

"Good grandfather, this monarch is not a good thing, but the wolf people are even more hateful, why don't you go with him to see it? If what he said is false, it's not too late for us to leave, he can't take care of us anyway," Gu Ye raised his hand to wipe away his tears, shook the old man's arm and said, "We don't have food, we can't live at all, if we meet the wolf people, won't we also die?"

"I'm grateful that you didn't have the idea of robbing our grain and grass," Meng Yun jumped out of the ring and half-jokingly.

Gu Ye made a big red face and hid behind the old man.

"Alas-" The old man shook his head and sighed, then closed his eyes, not knowing if he was worried that Gu Ye was kind-hearted and might be deceived in the future, or if he thought of other concerns.

A quarter of an hour later.

The old man opened his eyes again, leaned on crutches, and stared at him for a few seconds, without saying a word in the process, and then he was about to kneel down on one knee at him, "The old man is willing to follow the general!"

As the old man knelt like this, the whole crowd shouted a tsunami, and they knelt on the ground one after another, "We are willing to follow the general!" "We are willing to follow the general!" ......

"I am willing to follow the general!" Gu Ye also naughtily bowed to him.

Meng Yun hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man, he definitely couldn't let an old man kneel down for him, "The old man doesn't need to be like this, everyone get up quickly!"

Meng Yun helped the old man to sit on the wooden chair, nodded solemnly at the other party, and then turned around and climbed into the ring, shouting loudly, "Listen to the order!

"Yes!" the soldiers on the field poured into the crowd.

In fact, these copper chains are very fragile, but even so, no one dares to smash them open, in fact, the reason is very simple, before smashing the chains without permission, it can be regarded as a rebellion, this kind of behavior can be killed on the spot, which is also the meaning of the existence of the five thousand garrisons.

During the breaking of the unlock chain, almost everyone was looking at him feverishly, he definitely couldn't look at people stupidly at this time, and the whole person was excited and couldn't help shouting, "You are willing to fight side by side with me, you are my comrades-in-arms!"

"I am here to assure you that I will never be prejudiced because of your identity, and I will never shrink away because I am in a high position, as long as I am on any day, I will definitely advance and retreat with you! On the road of charging, no brother is allowed to walk in front of me!"

At the moment when his words fell, the crowd in front of him knelt down again, "Long live the general......!"

Even the old man couldn't help it, and said to him excitedly, "Although the general is young, you are a natural leader!"

At this time, he turned his head and suddenly found that Jing Jian's face was a little unsightly, and several officials close to Jing Jian also dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, "Vanima is done with calves, and now it is ...... to play."
