You Yong and Wang Sili stood side by side under a large pine tree, looking in the direction of Shenzhou.

The two of them, as representatives of the Chengde Festival Embassy, went out of the city for ten miles to greet Li Ze, who was about to arrive in Zhending City.

I don't know how many years this pine tree has lived, and one person can't be surrounded by it at all, and the crown is like a cloud, although it is bent over by the snow, but it still stands proudly in the wind and snow. There is some snow under the trees, but it is much lighter than outside the canopy. Crystal clear ice cubes hung upside down from the branches, and when the wind blew, they collided with each other and made a clanging sound, and some of them broke off and fell to the ground.

Wang Sili stretched out his hand and put an ice cube in his mouth, sucked it, looked at You Yong and asked with a smile, "How do you feel?" ”

You Yong turned his head to look at him, a little puzzled: "What do you feel?" ”

"This little boy we're going to meet?"

You Yong was silent for a long time and said, "It's a great character. With his own strength, he won the four states of Henghai, and this plan is much more powerful than that of the commander back then."

"Isn't it because of Cao Xin?" Wang Sili asked rhetorically.

You Yong shook his head: "Wang Wenshu has told me a lot of things about the little boy. Scheming across the sea has been started since six years ago, and our little son, in the name of business, has infiltrated the sea in all its parts. Earlier, when he played Texas, he benefited from Neiying, and this time you also know that Cangzhou fell in such a short period of time because it had already laid chess pieces in Neili."

Wang Sili swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a grunt: "Six years ago? How old was he then? A ten-year-old child actually started such a long-term plan? ”

"Unbelievable, right? To be honest, I really can't believe it's true, but I can't help but believe it when I see how easy it is for them to hit Yokomi this time." You Yong sighed and said, "If it weren't for that, how could the section commander choose Li Ze to be the master regardless of everything?" For this reason, I did not hesitate to abolish Li Erye and Suning, hey! ”

Wang Sili also sighed silently, whether it was Li Anmin or Suning, but they were all robes that they had fought side by side for many years, and now one was locked up in Huaide Hall, and the other was confined in Jiedu Mansion, I was afraid that it would not end well.

"Lao Wang, I want to retreat!" You Yong said suddenly.

Wang Sili was taken aback: "Retreat, where to retreat?" ”

"I'm a little scared of this young master!" You Yong's voice trembled a little, "Do you know the Shenzhou general Hu Twelve?"

"Of course I know, the Battle of the Deep State has come to the fore, and Suning was unlucky in the end, and he also has great credit!" Wang Sili nodded.

You Yong laughed a few times: "This Hu Twelve is a little boy from beginning to end. Before our battle with Lu Long began, the little boy calculated that we would be defeated by virtue, so he sent Hu Twelve, and this person finally lived up to his expectations in Shenzhou, and soon became an important general in Shenzhou with his martial arts, strategy and ability to train soldiers."

"Didn't you say that this Hu Twelve was the person promoted by Du Teng? How did you become a little boy again? Wang Sili said in a trembling voice.

You Yong shook his head: "Hu Twelve is the little son's person, this is what the festival marshal told me personally. How can there be a fake? It's the festival marshal, and I only found out about this after meeting with the little boy."

Wang Sili shivered violently.

"He's only sixteen years old, so deep in his mind, a little older, what is it?" You Yong shook his head and said.

"Lao You, do you know the measurement of acres of land, the counting of people, and the so-called three-three system of rent policy implemented by the little prince in Yizhou?" Wang Sili asked.

"Of course I do!" You Yong nodded and said, "How could you not know such a big movement?" ”

"You and I are both big families in Zhenzhou." Wang Sili smiled bitterly and said: "My family has more than 20,000 acres of land, and your family is about the same amount, right?" If we follow his tax policy, we will lose money. If you don't retreat, we always have the capital to bargain with him, and if we retreat, wouldn't we let him handle it? ”

You Yong smiled: "If you don't retreat, don't you still want to let him handle it?" Do you know how Cao Xin did it in Yizhou? Separation! Let's divide the other rooms in the house, and it's almost below the limit."

"It's hard to get together at home!" Wang Sili said: "Lao You, if you have a family, your hearts will be scattered. Besides, even if it's a real separation, what about our private parts? Also divided? If we divide it, our strength will be greatly reduced, and if we don't divide it, we won't be able to support it."

You Yongyi stretched out his hand and put down a thick ice cube from the bent pine branch, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it rattling, and said with a sneer: "Haven't you seen it yet?" That's what the little boy intended. Quietly dismantling the private strength of our subordinates, we and the commander can be said to be the monarch and the minister, or we can be said to be the comrade-in-arms, but in the future, under the command of the little prince, there will only be the monarch and the minister, and there will be no partner."

Wang Sili bit his cheek and hissed for a while, "What did Yuan Zhou say?" ”

"Yuan Zhou is a family of poetry and books, although he also has fields at home, but the number is not much, and he has Zhuxuan and caravans. These things were originally told to me by him, only to tell me, don't carry it with the little boy, look at the little boy's means and thoughts, I'm afraid that he won't stop until he reaches the goal. You and I are both Zhenzhou Haoqiang, and the little boy's main blow is people like us. We know everything in our family, we are afraid of a lot of unsightly things, and we really have to carry it hard, and we are only afraid of a handful of pigtails, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will not be a matter of spitting out these land parts."

"How can you say that it is so serious?" Wang Sili said unconvinced: "My Wang is a very upright family."

You Yong laughed: "You and I are away all the year round, busy with official business, how much do you really know about family affairs?" You might as well go home and interrogate me to know that what I say is true. Lao Wang, retire honestly and make room for the little boy, we will definitely be able to live a decent life, if we carry it hard, I'm afraid the end will not be too good."

Wang Sili lamented: "If we knew this, why should we listen to the words of the marshal and support him? ”

"You want to work with the Lulons?" You Yong asked rhetorically.

Wang Sili shook his head categorically.

"Isn't that the end of it, since we can't work with the Lurons, is there any other choice? And Zhang Zhongwu is not a master. With him, maybe there will be no bones left in the future, and the family will be affected. Besides, if we don't support the little boy, we are against the festival handsome, are you sure you can calculate the festival handsome? ”

Wang Sili shook his head.

"In the last battle with Wang Feng, the main forces under my command are Liang Han and Wenfu."

You Yong nodded: "Now you understand, why at that time, the festival marshal took the Chengde wolf ride away from me, right?" ”

"After all, I am unwilling." Wang Sili thought for a while before saying, "Let's talk about it after seeing the little boy!" Judging by his treatment of Duten in the Deep State, we shouldn't be too harsh."

"We'll see!" You Yong put his hand on his eyes and looked into the distance for a while, and said, "Look, they are coming."

Wang Sili raised his head and looked into the distance, and on the horizon, a black line appeared in his field of vision.

The first to appear were the rangers led by Lid. The cavalry belonging to Cao Xin in Yizhou has now been rebuilt, and there are only more than 1,000 cavalry left under the leadership of Li De, all of them are black clothes and black armor, bayonet guns and sabers, and there are not many small bits and pieces hanging on the war horses. You Yong and Wang Sili are both generals who lead the troops, and looking at the formation of the rangers all the way, their faces are a little solemn.

The Rangers of Wuyi seem to be scattered, but if you look closely, you will find that these Rangers maintain an extremely special formation while marching, which allows them to form a combined force in an instant, or they can break down into countless small battle formations in the blink of an eye.

"It's a real team." Wang Sili muttered.

"Under the command of the little prince, the strongest is not the cavalry, but the foot soldiers." When You Yong spoke in a low voice, he waved his hand and motioned for a personal guard to immediately go forward to inform the other party.

Behind the cavalry, a phalanx of black-pressed infantry appeared. In the snow, three thousand foot soldiers lined up in four columns to move forward, and in the middle of the foot soldiers was another cavalry, and the Li Zi banner was flying high in the middle of this cavalry surrounded by foot soldiers.

The Rangers stopped, and several horsemen jumped out of the formation to meet You Yong's own soldiers, and after a few words of conversation between the two sides, the loose Rangers formation formed a dense cavalry formation in the blink of an eye with a whistle. Immediately after, three thousand foot soldiers lined up behind them, and a hollow phalanx took shape in an instant, and Li Zidaqi and those cavalry were in the hollow in the middle of this phalanx.

A horn sounded, and the infantry cavalry split in two, and several horsemen galloped out of it.

You Yong and Wang Sili also walked out from under the big pine tree.

More than ten steps away from the two of them, four war horses stopped at Qiqile, the first one, dressed in white fur, with red lips and white teeth, it was Li Ze. On the left is Cao Xin, on the right is Min Rou, followed by Tu Lichun.

The four of them turned over and got on their horses and walked towards You Yong and Wang Sili.

You Wang and the others took a few steps forward, clasped their hands into fists, bowed down and said, "You Yong, Wang Sili, I have seen Prince Ze."

Li Ze walked forward with a big smile: "It's icy and snowy, the weather is cold, how dare you work the two uncles to greet you, Li Ze is terrified, please get up quickly, please get up quickly."

You Wang and the others raised their heads and looked at Li Ze in front of them, the other party smiled extremely sincerely, and they couldn't see the slightest pretentiousness, as if they really saw the two of them surprised here.

"Brother You, Brother Wang, meet again. On the bank of the Yishui River, a battle broke Zhenwu, Cao Xin heard it, but he drank a big pot of wine! Cao Xin clenched his fists and laughed.

"Then Prince Bidze and Gong Cao swept away Henghai and severely damaged Lu Long?" You Yong said with a smile.

Min Rou and Tu Lichun, who were behind Li Ze, also stepped forward to greet the two. These two are the old bosses of the two of them.
