Bai Yucheng's sudden arrival, for Gao Yuan, is just an unexpected episode, Bai Yucheng is kind to him, whether it is intentional or unintentional, he should repay him. That's it, after seeing Bai Yucheng and placing them in Curie Pass, Gao Yuan returned to the Niulanshan camp.

As the New Year is approaching day by day, the Niulanshan camp has gradually taken shape day by day, the outer defense facilities have been basically completed, and the improvement of the various functions inside will take a longer time, and can only be done one by one after the beginning of the year. Compared with Curie Pass, the scale of the Niulanshan camp is several times larger, which is also based on Gao Yuan's long-term considerations, in the future, the garrison here will never be more than 2,000 people.

Compared with the busy camp in the past, today's Niulanshan camp is extremely quiet, and many of the projects under construction have also stopped.

Because today is a big day for the Niulanshan battalion, the relocation of the Niulanlan, the expansion of the troops doubled, almost two months of training, today, is the day of the recruit drill drill, but also the day to test the results of these two months, whether it is Gao Yuan, or the captain of the Fufeng Battalion Sun Xiao, the captain of the Chima Battalion Zheng Xiaoyang, all attach great importance to this drill competition, Yu Gaoyuan, this is the time to test the combat effectiveness of the army, and for Sun Xiao and Zheng Xiaoyang, it is a time for a direct contest to compare the superior.

Different from the previous big competition, today's big competition will be followed by a flag-awarding ceremony. The battalion flags of the two battalions of the Fufeng Battalion and the Red Horse Battalion will be distributed by Gao Yuan himself after the big competition, and the winner of the big competition will have the right to embroider a star on the camp flag, which is this star. Let Sun Xiao and Zheng Xiaoyang both have red eyes, both of them know that the camp flag is embroidered with this star, in the next few days, then they can show off their might in front of their opponents, Sun Xiao thinks that he is Gao Yuan's henchman, how can he lose to Zheng Xiaoyang. And Zheng Xiaoyang's qualifications in the army are much longer and older than Sun Xiaoke, and he doesn't want to lose to a junior. Both sides are working hard to compete in this big competition.

Compared with the tense atmosphere outside, on the edge of the school field, in a large tent that was temporarily erected. But it was laughter. Dozens of people were crowded inside, it seemed to be very lively, Gao Yuan sat on the main seat, and the two guests led by one were old acquaintances, Wu Kai, the old friend of Fufeng County, and the other was Zheng Jun, the county commander of Chima County. This county magistrate is much younger than Wu Kailai, in his early forties, and he is new. Dressed neatly, with three long strands of beard carefully on his slightly thin face. Sitting upright, not squinting, a typical literati style, occasionally chatting with everyone for a few words, between the expressions, is also faint. is in stark contrast to Wu Kai, who is dressed in civilian clothes and knows casually.

Gao Yuan also understood in his heart that Zhang Shouyue waved his pen, red horses, and Fufeng were divided into a unified border defense area, and his status immediately rose to a level, and the military, political and civil affairs in charge of this defense army steadily suppressed Zheng Jun's head, which of course made him unhappy, no one wants to have a boss under his nose, Zheng Jun's unhappiness is natural. Wu Kai of Fufeng is different, his mind is on selling wine, for being an official, he is just a sideline, as long as the wine sells well, the rest can be ignored, Gao Yuan is responsible for the military, political and civil affairs of the entire defense area, it is a great thing for him, at least it will not be as headache as before. The sky is falling, and there is a high and far top. As for Gao Yuan, a young man who was not yet twenty years old, pressed on his head, he didn't think about it at all, since he cooperated with Gao Yuan, he had seen too much of this guy's magic. I heard that Gao Yuan was going to parade and invited him to come over to watch the ceremony, even if he rushed over in a hurry, the stronger Gao Yuan was, the happier he was, and when Gao Yuan's army hit there, his wine could be sold there, and if it was a unique business, all those who competed would be destroyed by them, so now, he looked at Gao Yuan, how to see how pleasing to the eye, how comfortable.

In addition to these two, there is also a special observer, that is, the horse bandit who now lives in Curie Pass killed Bai Yucheng, invited Bai Yucheng to come over to watch the ceremony, Gao Yuan was actually just out of politeness, he didn't expect that Bai Yucheng listened, without saying a word, he rode over on a horse, his injury was not yet good, all the way bumpy, but his face was a little pale, sitting next to Wu Kai, looking at the two county commanders with different expressions with great interest.

In addition to these three, the rest are Fufeng, the squires of the two places of Chima and the respected people of the villages and towns, high and far-reaching, the military parade pulled these people over, let them see their fierce military might, for their own control of these two places in the future, and the future expansion, will have great benefits.

Of course, these squires are also very happy to be invited by Gao Yuan, because this is another form of recognizing their status, who is Gao Yuan, he is now the emperor land of Fufeng and Chima, and the scene of him parting with Nanshan, the daughter of Ye Tiannan, the current minister of state, has made this county lieutenant a layer of legend. It's more about awe.

This is a county lieutenant who doesn't take the prime minister in his eyes, offended him, can he have good fruit to eat? After receiving the invitation to watch the ceremony, he was happy, and he had to prepare a generous gift to turn over the table, and even Zheng Jun, the commander of Chima County, had to follow the crowd and prepare a gift, which made Gao Yuan a little surprised, and he didn't expect to invite them over and receive a big gift.

However, the current Zheng Jun is annoyed by this matter, because Wu Kai, the commander of Fufeng County, who is of the same status as him, came empty-handed, and compared with the two, it seems that he is inferior. Seeing Gao Yuan and Wu Kai whispering together from time to time, Zheng Jun felt even more left out, and his heart was even more unhappy.

For Zheng Jun's reaction, Gao Yuan naturally saw it in his eyes, but he didn't care, when this county commander saw his army, no matter how big the dissatisfaction in his heart was, he was afraid that it would disappear, Zhang Shouyue divided Fufeng Chima into a unified defense area and handed it over to himself, in fact, he gave these two places to himself as a territory, so as to facilitate his outward expansion, in order to become a barrier to his western Liaoxi in the future, in this case, he naturally did not have to give him too much color. When he recruited troops in Chima County and collected taxes on grain and grass, this county magistrate did not give himself a moth, and he made things difficult in the open and in the dark. This time, he turned over coldly, and when he was paraded, he was in a town, and then he was pulled again through Wu Kai, in short, he had to be obedient.

After subduing him first, and then start to win him over, this person is different from Wu Kai, Wu Kai is a half-baked scholar, a full businessman, but this Zheng Jun is a full reader, a qualified bureaucrat, can gain a firm foothold in a border county like Chima, and operate well, which is also a talent. Under his own banner, there is a lack of such talents, this heart, Gao Yuan told Wu Kai without reservation, Wu Kai sighed Gao Yuan's means at the same time, but also worried about Zheng Jun's loyalty.

"If you are observing, there will be no disciples, and if the water is clear, there will be no fish! Gao Yuan didn't care about this, "I use his talent, as for whether he is loyal or not, Lord Wu, do you think this Lord Zheng dares to have two hearts in front of my Huanghuang military might?" ＂

Bai Yucheng didn't understand Gao Yuan's intentions, and seeing that Gao Yuan's attitude towards the two county magistrates was very different, not only was he secretly surprised, but he was surprised, but he also paid more attention to the relationship between these two adults and Gao Yuan.

"This brother Tai is very raw, I don't know where he is from? Caught off guard, Wu Kai suddenly turned around and looked at Bai Yucheng. Bai Yucheng is a well-known horse bandit, even in Fufeng and Chima, everyone has heard of him, in order not to be afraid of this squire in the tent, Gao Yuan did not introduce them to them.

"Bai Yucheng! The leader of the horse bandits who killed the sky arched his hand, "Lord Wu's name, I have heard Lord Gao mention it many times."

"Bai Yucheng? Wu Kai's eyes widened immediately, "I know you, Gao Yuan told me after he came back, the battle of Yulin is thanks to you, wonderful, he is really a good man, and he is really a good friend, but how do you know that Lu Dao Gao Yuan is going to hold this military parade today?" ＂

Bai Yucheng smiled bitterly, "Don't hide it from Lord Wu, now I have been beaten into a water dog by Miranda, and I have lost my troops and fled to Lord Gao to take refuge."

"That's it! Wu Kai's face was regretful, "It's okay, it's okay, everyone is good friends, since you are here, you can live here with peace of mind, although Fufeng is not big, but it can accommodate your white brother."

"I'm a horse bandit, Lord Wu's parents are official, aren't you afraid that I will return to my old business here? Bai Yucheng said jokingly.

Wu Kai laughed, "First, you are Gao Yuan's friend, I can rest assured, second, you are the enemy of the Donghu people, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, I also understand this, and third, you helped Gao Yuan kill Yulin, and everyone in my Liaoxi County owes you a great favor, especially a border county like ours. This is the fourth! He lowered his voice, put his mouth next to Bai Yucheng's ear, and whispered: "If you really dare to resume your old business in Fufeng, Gao Yuan will definitely not let you go, although Brother Bai is famous, but in my opinion, he is far from Gao Yuan's opponent."

Bai Yucheng smiled and said, "Lord Wu has a lot of confidence in Lord Gao."

"Of course there is confidence! Wu Kai straightened up and said proudly: "I watched Gao Yuan come out step by step, two years ago, Gao Yuan was just a little ruffian, two years later, he is already a general in command of thousands of people, if I don't have confidence in him, who else do I have confidence in?" Brother Bai, say something that shouldn't be said, since Donghu can't go back, you might as well follow Gao Yuan to do it."

The smile on Bai Yucheng's face froze slightly, "This matter, let's discuss it later!" ＂

"Okay, we'll talk about it later. We'll talk about it later." Wu Kai smiled and nodded repeatedly.

As he spoke, the rumbling sound of the snare drum sounded outside, and with the sound of the drum, the sound of conversation and laughter in the big tent instantly quieted down, and Gao Yuan stood up, "Everyone, the auspicious time has come, let's go out to watch the ceremony!"
