What Yang Yun didn't know, at this moment, Qiao Shun, the general of Zhennan, who was not far away from him, couldn't sleep over and over again.

"Marshal, I have found a suitable partner to work with, and the day of revenge for you is not far away." Unable to sleep, Qiao Shun simply stood up and muttered to the sky in the distance.

When it was almost dawn, Yang Yun fell asleep in a daze, and it was dawn not long after he slept. Yang Yun, who was already accustomed to getting up early, no longer had the feeling of sleepiness at this time, got up as usual, picked up the long sword and practiced in the yard.

After coming to this world for many years, Yang Yun has changed from a weak teenager to a young man with a strong body. Kung Fu has also made great progress, and the three or five ordinary soldiers are no longer his opponents, although they are not as good as his fifth brother Yang Ming, but his strength has been able to compete with ordinary generals.

After the practice, Yang Yun was planning to sit down and rest for a while and eat a little heart. At this time, Yao Xia came to Yang Yun and handed Yang Yun an invitation.

Yang Yun opened the invitation card and looked at it, with a smile on his face, and then handed the invitation to Yao Xia in front of him.

"General Zhennan invited you to a luncheon, I'm afraid there is some other purpose for this." Yao Xia said with a smile after reading the invitation.

"I've always had a mystery in my mind, and maybe it can be solved at this luncheon." Yang Yun pointed to this invitation card and said thoughtfully.

When it was almost noon, Qiao Shun sent a small sedan chair to pick up Yang Yun to attend the luncheon. The location of the luncheon was on the Zhennan General's Mansion, so Yang Yun didn't need to bring guards, only Yao Xia and Chi Mu'er followed.

There were not many people participating in midnight, and in addition to Yang Yun and the others, Qiao Shun only brought five or six subordinates to participate. Those who can come to this luncheon should be Qiao Shun's most capable subordinates now, so Yang Yun also quietly told Yao Xia and Chi Mu'er to work hard to have a good relationship with them.

These people who are often in the army, wine is indispensable at the banquet table, especially the high-grade wine brewed by the Cheetah Department that Yang Yun specially asked Yao Xia to bring, so that everyone drank it to a great extent, and after a while, many people were so drunk that their faces were red.

After a few glasses of wine, everyone became more familiar, so they began to talk more. Qiao Shun is a straight man, and while he was drunk, he told Yang Yun about his intentions.

"What, the Great General wants to form an alliance with us?" Qiao Shun's words were beyond Yang Yun's expectations, and he didn't expect it to be this purpose.

"To be clear, Qiao wants to form an alliance with His Royal Highness King Wu, not with Dafu, we will help each other, and we can even fully support King Wu to seize the throne of Dafu." Qiao Shun said firmly.

"With my strength, even if I want to fight for the throne, it can only be a joke. Why didn't the general set the object of cooperation as my fifth brother Yang Ming, second brother Yang Xian, and then my third brother Yang Guang, the ninth brother Yang Yong, the king of Qi, even the twelfth brother Yang Yan, who was crowned king later than me, is stronger than me! Yang Yun said with a smile.

"Your fifth brother Yang Ming, I and my brothers came to this miserable country to survive, Yang Ming is not the culprit, but he also played a huge role, even if we die, we are not willing to rely on him. As for the others, all of them are characters with eyes above the top, and they are not suitable partners for cooperation, I Qiao Shun has always believed in his own vision, and His Royal Highness King Wu will be a figure in the future, even if he cannot be the emperor, he should be a person who leans towards the government and the opposition. Qiao Shun said again.

"Then if we cooperate, what help do you want Yang to give you?" It is of course a good thing to be able to get Qiao Shun's help, but Yang Yun also considers whether he can afford the price.

"I hope that one day, His Royal Highness King Wu will be able to lead us to march west and seize the traitorous country of Zhao Yuanrang?" Hearing Yang Yun ask, Qiao Shun, who looked very elegant, suddenly slapped the table and said fiercely.

"I heard that you are all old soldiers of the Chu State, how can you hate Zhao Yuanrang, the king of Chu, so much?" Yang Yun asked a little strangely.

In the conversation between Qiao Shun and several of his subordinates, you and me, Yang Yun finally figured out the ins and outs of this matter.

It turned out that, as rumored by the outside world, Qiao Shun and his subordinates were indeed the old soldiers of the Chu State. More than ten years ago, Qiao Shun and others were subordinates of Longge, the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the Chu State, and followed Longge to fight for many years and made heroic achievements.

However, more than ten years ago, Longo, who had almost never suffered defeat, suffered the biggest Waterloo of his military career, and he was actually captured alive by a long-distance attack by the five princes of Dafu.

The generalissimo of the soldiers and horses leading the army were all captured alive, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Chu State were left without a commander, and the army was defeated in an instant, losing many manpower. Fortunately, Zhao Yuanrang, the emperor's younger brother at that time, stepped forward and got the military power given by Zhao Yuanqi, the king of Chu, and finally stabilized the situation after some strategizing, but it also made Chu State not have the strength to attack Dafu in the next few years, so that the two sides were in a state of temporary stalemate.

"What everyone knows is superficial, but the actual situation is that Marshal Long has already estimated that Yang Ming will have this raid, and he has already opened his pockets. And Marshal Long used himself as bait to annihilate the elite troops under Yang Ming, and capture the commander Yang Ming alive, this originally foolproof plan, but he didn't expect it to be sabotaged by his own people. Speaking of this, one of Qiao Shun's generals began to get excited, and he slapped the table and said with red eyes.

Under the explanation of Qiao Shun's subordinates, Yang Yun finally understood what had happened. Zhao Yuanrang deliberately let people tell Yang Ming about Longge's arrangement, and deliberately opened an opening from the area where he was armed, so that Yang Ming successfully caught Longgo and escaped from this opening.

Back then, the truth was actually like this, which made Yang Yun feel deeply unworthy for Longgo, but Longgo, who was named Guo Long, had followed him for so many years and never said anything about it.

"After Generalissimo Longo was captured, we were all extremely angry and wanted to ask Zhao Yuanrang for an explanation, but Zhao Yuanrang, who had already obtained the military power, ignored us at all. In desperation, we had to go to the court and really wanted to tell Your Majesty about this matter, but our twists and turns were like mud cattle entering the sea, but there was no news. Qiao Shun took the wine glass in front of him and drank it down, and then continued: "Later, those of us who were loyal to Generalissimo Longo began to be cleaned up, some were demoted, some were imprisoned, and some were even directly beheaded by An on a trumped-up charge. In a fit of rage, I left the barracks with my brothers and came to the Grand Canyon. ”

Qiao Shun and the others came to this miserable country, and they had such a tortuous experience, which made Yang Yun couldn't help but admire their loyalty.

Because it was not clear whether this matter was true or not, Yang Yun decided not to tell Qiao Shun and others the news of Guo Long's fiefdom for the time being.

"I heard that Generalissimo Longgo was later exchanged for a city by the State of Chu and thousands of Dafu prisoners, didn't you send someone to find him?" Yang Yun asked Qiao Shun and the others.

"Why not? We sent a large number of people to Chuyang City to inquire about the news, and we heard that Marshal Long was imprisoned as soon as he returned, and we didn't even know where we were imprisoned. Later, I heard that Marshal Long had been released, but no one had seen him. A general under Qiao Shun said.

"It must be these turtle grandsons who murdered Marshal Long and deliberately found these excuses." Another general slapped the table and said indignantly.

"Yes! How could a man as big as a marshal suddenly disappear? Obviously, he was assassinated by some people, and the person who assassinated him, we can also think of it, so the purpose of our brothers living now is to avenge the marshal. With tears in his eyes, Qiao Shun said emotionally.

"General Qiao doesn't need to be too sad, maybe Generalissimo Longo is still alive at the moment, but he just doesn't want to be disturbed anymore and continues to live in another way?" Seeing Qiao Shun and the others were very sad, but the matter was unconfirmed, he couldn't take the liberty of telling Qiao Shun and the others the truth, so he could only persuade him euphemistically.

"For so many years, we have sent many people to search for Marshal Long's traces, but there has been no result, no matter what? The culprit that caused us and Marshal Long to become like this is Zhao Yuanrang, the king of Chu, even if all my brothers risk their lives, they will fight this despicable villain to the end. Qiao Shun said again.

"Zhao Yuanrang, the king of Chu, is your enemy, and also the enemy of me and all the people of Dafu, I can promise you this matter, once there is this opportunity. I'll do my best, for you, and for me to get rid of Zhao Yuanrang from ourselves. Yang Yun said resolutely.

"Well, the enemy of the enemy is the friend, for our common goal, let's do a bowl together." After Qiao Shun said this, he beckoned all the people present to drink all the wine in the wine bowl together, representing the achievement of the alliance between the two sides.

This trip to the country not only successfully rescued Duanmu Jiyue and others, but also made an ally, which made Yang Yun very happy. It can be seen that this Qiao Shun is a person who attaches great importance to righteousness and trust, and it is very reliable to become an ally with such a person.

This time, what Zhong Wentao did when he came to his fiefdom gave Yang Yun a deep sense of crisis, it seems that even if he is hiding in the fiefdom far away, those people in Xijing City have not forgotten themselves, so only by constantly strengthening their own strength can they have the ability to protect themselves and their relatives and friends.

Qiao Shun's men are all very upright people, and they can talk very well with Yao Xia and Chi Mu'er, so they drink very happily. Cup after cup dried, and by the end almost everyone was drunk.

In the next few days, Yang Yun and Chi Mu'er and others stayed in Qiao Shun's Zhennan General's Mansion, and after many exchanges with Qiao Shun, Yang Yun found that Qiao Shun still had a set of troops.

Qiao Shun is well aware of the principles of "the division is the law, the way of the general, and the soldiers, the precepts are the first, and the honor and disgrace are known", and I saw it in the Zhennan General's Mansion, all the soldiers are energetic and the military discipline is strict, which is the loyalty to Qiao Shun from the bottom of his heart.

Such a military management talent is exactly what his fiefdom needs, although he feels that it is unlikely, Yang Yun's heart still secretly rises in his heart, and he has a heart for Qiao Shun to solicit.
