Xu saw Zhang Yu's hesitation, and Luo Yi said loudly, "I promise you in the name of the defender of Xicheng that as long as you help me defend against the Turks and defend Xicheng, I will do my best to help you thoroughly investigate the injustice suffered by your General Zhang Rong." ”

Looking at Luo Yi's determined expression, Zhang Yufu gradually wavered. Looking down at the tip of his shoe, he didn't know what he remembered, and the corners of his mouth hooked a somewhat calculating arc. After a while, he raised his head, turned to look at Luo Yi, and said, "General Luo's kindness, I really can't refuse." It's just that...... General, you also know that it is not me who is in charge of this Qingfeng Village after all, and there are some things that are useless if I just agree. ”

Luo Yi raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Yufu, with a look of crying and laughing on his face.

Today's Qingfeng Village, although Ruan Ning is still the big boss, but the people in the village are all convinced by this Zhang family boy. As long as this kid is relieved, others will naturally not say anything.

At this moment, Zhang Yufu said that he couldn't be the master, and he obviously wanted to get some benefits from him.

Taking a deep breath, Luo Yi commanded outside the door, "Come on, go and invite a few distinguished guests from Qingfeng Village." ”

In the side hall, Ruan Ning, who had been waiting a little impatiently, was about to go out with a longbow, and immediately left Xicheng after finding Zhang Yufu, but saw that the soldier who had taken Zhang Yufu before came over again, saying that Luo Yi wanted to see them.

Ruan Ning and Longbow looked at each other, and there were some doubts in their hearts, but they looked unfazed on their faces.

"Alliance?" When he arrived at Luo Yi's study, after listening to Zhang Yufu's ins and outs, Ruan Ning looked at the man in front of him with a little doubt on his face.

Some time ago, Qingfeng Village was besieged under the secret operation of the Xicheng government and almost wiped out the whole army, but she didn't forget it so quickly.

But as soon as she heard that it was to defend against the Turks, the little guard in her heart was pressed again.

A large part of the reason why the ancestors of Qingfeng Village chose to set up camp in the Broken Soul Mountain was that the terrain of the Broken Soul Mountain was dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was still a necessary place for the Turks to invade the Central Plains. When her father was dying, he also told her that at any cost, she should also guard Qingfeng Village and Broken Soul Mountain.

Therefore, after learning Luo Yi's intentions, she immediately planned to nod her head and agree.

Just as she was looking up to say something, she suddenly met Zhang Yufu's gaze.

Looking at Zhang Yufu's slightly raised eyebrows, Ruan Ning turned his words, looked at Luo Yi with a little hesitation on his face, and said, "General Luo, it's not that I, Qingfeng Village, don't want to form an alliance with you, after all, I really let the Turks fight, and none of us can please us!" Just, right...... In the past two years, Qingfeng Village has been surrounded and suppressed by the government, and we are really afraid...... You said that if we do our best to help Xicheng, but in the blink of an eye, there are people with bad intentions who take advantage of Qingfeng Village's weakness to open fire on Qingfeng Village, then where will I and my brothers go to reason? ”

Listening to Ruan Ning's words, and then looking at the sad look on her face, Zhang Yufu secretly gave her a thumbs up.

Luo Yi looked at the small movements of the two, took a deep breath, and said, "What the big boss said is extremely true, Qingfeng Village and I have formed an alliance, and the Shoujiang Mansion will naturally not treat you badly." I will make an agreement, as long as I Luo Yi is still in Xicheng for a day, I will never let any force in Xicheng invade Qingfeng Village. What do you think? ”

"In this way, Ruan Ning has thanked General Luo in advance." Ruan Ning gave Luo Yi a salute, his eyes full of smiles.

In the future, Qingfeng Village has such a backer as the Xicheng Shou General's Mansion, whether it is Zhao Shizhu or those forces in the desert, if you want to pay attention to Qingfeng Village, you have to weigh it.

After signing the agreement, Ruan Ning immediately wrote a letter, asking people to send it back to Qingfeng Village quickly, and inform the people in the village of the alliance between Qingfeng Village and Xicheng. She and the three of them stayed in the Xicheng Guard's Mansion for a few days to discuss specific cooperation matters with Luo Yi.

Xicheng County Ya, when he learned that Ruan Ning, Zhang Yufu and others had been invited into the Xicheng Guard's Mansion, Zhao Shizhu was so anxious that he paced back and forth in the house.

"My lord, my lord......" came the voice of the henchman he had sent out to inquire about the news.

Zhao Shizhu hurriedly looked over and asked, "How?" What did you find? ”

The henchman shook his head and said with a sad face, "The Guard's Mansion is in a tight position, and our people can't enter at all." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Shizhu's face changed, he glared at the henchman, and roared dissatisfiedly, "I haven't found any news, what are you doing here!" ”

The henchman was stunned for a moment, suddenly remembered something, raised his hand and patted the back of his head, and said, "My lord, it's Huitou Alley, someone over there has spread the news, saying that you are invited to go there." ”

Hearing the words "Huitou Lane", Zhao Shizhu couldn't care about what Luo Yi was doing anymore when he was looking for people from Qingfeng Village, so he cleaned up and quietly walked out of the back door of the Xicheng County Ya.

Avoiding everyone's sight, he unconsciously entered the back alley, and Zhao Shizhu's heart was excited.

Since the failure of the last encirclement and suppression of Qingfeng Village, Lord Moqi asked him to go back and wait for news, and this wait has been more than half a year.

Pressing down the hood that covered his face, Zhao Shizhu exhaled a breath of turbidity.

After waiting for so long, he finally came out.

This time, I saw Mochi, still in that somewhat dark tent. Before he could speak, Mochi sent him a low letter.

Looking at the letter in his hand, Zhao Shizhu raised his head with some confusion and asked, "This is?" ”

Mo Qi held the iron rod in his left hand, and his right hand covered the back of his left hand, and said in a deep voice, "This is a handwritten letter from the master of Qingfeng Village, which was just intercepted by my people. ”

After a pause, Mochi continued, "Luo Yi has formed an alliance with Qingfeng Village, preparing to follow the terrain of Broken Soul Mountain and block the advance of the army. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Shizhu's feet softened, and he immediately knelt down, and explained again and again, "Mr. Moqi forgives his sins, now that the guards are heavily guarded in the mansion, my people can't get close to ...... at all."

Mo Qi didn't bother to listen to Zhao Shizhu's explanation, interrupted him, and said, "I'm giving you one last chance." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Shizhu's body stiffened, and he hurriedly looked up at Moqi, and said, "Sir, but it doesn't matter, this time, I will definitely not disappoint Mr." ”

Mo Qi was noncommittal, and in the slightly gloomy tent, Zhao Shizhu couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, "I want you ......"

After leaving from Huitou Alley, Zhao Shizhu returned to the county office without stopping. After learning that Ruan Ning and Zhang Yufu were still guarding the general's mansion in Xicheng, he immediately ordered 5,000 men and horses, and left Xicheng without alarming anyone on the pretext of inspecting the border.

Ten days later, Zhao Shizhu arrived at the Broken Soul Mountain with 5,000 men and horses.

After receiving the news, the people of Qingfeng Village suddenly felt like they were facing a great enemy, and they urgently became martial law. At this moment, Zhao Shizhu's henchmen single-handedly arrived outside the gate of Qingfeng Village, tied a letter to an arrow, and shot it into Qingfeng Village.

Hitomi took down the letter, looked at the handwriting on the letter, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, "It's a letter from the big boss." ”

"Look at what the big boss has written." Shiro was illiterate, so he leaned behind his pupils and didn't understand anything for a long time, so he asked anxiously.

The eye quickly read the content of the letter, looked up at the people around her, and said, "The big boss said that she went to Xicheng this time and formed an alliance with Luo Yi, the guard of Xicheng. In the future, Qingfeng Village will use the terrain of Broken Soul Mountain to join forces with the defenders of Xicheng to resist the invasion of the Turks, and in return, as long as Luo Yi is still in Xicheng for a day, he will protect our Qingfeng Village for a day. ”

Hearing this, Shiro's solemn face relaxed, and he slapped Lei Huo beside him on the shoulder, and said, "Hehe, this is a good thing!" Our Qingfeng Village has been regarded as a thorn in the side of the government for so many years, and now it has finally come out. ”

Lian Cheng frowned, and said with some disapproval, "Let's form an alliance with the people of the government, I'm afraid it's inappropriate." Don't forget, how did Mahei Village and Weihu Village bring about their own destruction! ”

Hearing this, Lei Huo shook his head and said, "That's not what I said! Mahei Village and Weihu Village are colluding with the government to attack their own families, and if something happens. But we're different, we formed an alliance this time, but it's to defend against the Turks. ”

The blind gun also nodded, and said softly, "Lei Huo's words are right, although we are all bandits who rob houses and houses in the desert, we are still Great Sui people after all." If the Turks come to fight, no one can sit idly by! ”

Several people were discussing, and the voice of Zhao Shizhu's confidant came from outside the village, "That is the handwritten letter of your big boss Ruan Ning, and now she is staying in Xicheng to discuss with General Luo." In order to deploy as soon as possible, General Luo asked Lord Zhao to bring 5,000 men and horses to settle in Qingfeng Village first, why don't you open the gate of the village and let us in. ”

Looking at the dense crowd of people and horses in the distance, Shiro raised his hand and waved, and said, "Go and open the gate." ”

Liancheng stopped the person who went to deliver the message, looked at Shiro with a frown, and said with wariness in his eyes, "How can you open the gate of the village with just one letter!" Have you forgotten this Zhao Shizhu, how much you want to exterminate our Qingfeng Village? In case this is his ploy......"

"The handwritten letters of the big boss are here, what other conspiracy can there be! It's not like the big boss and Zhao Shizhu will join forces to frame us! Shiro looked at Liancheng and was a little puzzled, only to feel that Liancheng was overprepared.

"Shiro, this matter can't be believed so easily. Once this is a conspiracy, as soon as the gate of the village is opened, we have no chance of winning against the 5,000 men outside! Lian Cheng was resolute in his opinion, and said that he would not let Shiro send someone to open the gate of the village.

"How many of you? It's the same idea as Liancheng? Juro looked at the other dozen or so people and asked with a frown.

"Shilang, Liancheng's suspicion is not unreasonable, after all, he brought the troops, but Zhao Shizhu!" Lei Huo frowned and persuaded Shiro, who had a temper.

"I heard that before Jin Buchang's brother established the Lone Eagle Village, he had stayed in Zhao Shizhu's mansion for a while, and I think I know more about Zhao Shizhu than we do. Why don't you ask him to ask? Seeing that everyone had their own opinions, Flying Blade was at a stalemate for a while, and tentatively proposed.

Not long after, Jin Buchang, who had just changed his guard, was invited to the gate of Qingfeng Village. As soon as the audience told the reason, he immediately objected, "The gate of the village can't be opened!" This Zhao Shizhu is scheming, and he has always used unscrupulous means to achieve his goals, and there must be fraud in this! ”
