Liao Guangpu's seemingly sincere apology made Wang Hu's face look better.

But he still said: "Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, thank you for the hospitality of the second leader tonight, and I will leave here!" ”

When Wang Hu was about to leave the table, Liao Guangpu finally made his conditions: "Leader Lei is not in a hurry!" Our Yun Mengze is now vacant for the position of captain of the 100-man team, I wonder if the leader of the thunder is interested? ”

A captain of 100 people can also be said to be a high authority in Yun Mengze. In terms of status, they are only under the three leaders, and the total number of captains of the entire Yunmengze Hundred is only a dozen or so.

Although Liao Guangpu's chips were not small, Wang Hu still said: "The second leader doesn't need to say any more, the two of us are not strong enough to drink, so let's go first!"

After speaking, he picked up Lin Fan, who was already drunk on the table, and walked out of the door with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Seeing that he was really leaving, Liao Guangpu was not in a hurry to stop him, but said with a smile: "Don't be busy refusing to take the lead, you might as well think about it after you go back, if you change your mind, you can come to me at any time!"

"And what I just said is just the beginning, as long as Leader Lei can make meritorious contributions in Yunmengze, it is not impossible to lead hundreds or even thousands of people in the future!"

"Then thank you for the kindness of the second leader, I will think about it!" Wang Hu's footsteps paused, and he said without looking back.

"Huh! Everyone will be their own brothers in the future, say thank you! Liao Guangpu said very confidently.

What he said was unintentional, but what he didn't know was that when he said this, Lin Fan's body with his back to him shook slightly, and he suddenly opened his eyes, and a fine light flashed in his eyes.

Wang Hu felt Lin Fan's strangeness, but he didn't show it, and helped Lin Fan to leave.

Just after Wang Hu and the others left, Huang Xinfeng came out from behind the screen, looked at the backs of the two of them who had already walked away, and snorted coldly: "It's just two inconspicuous little characters, it's worth it for you to be so active as Second Brother?" Don't you think it's too much of a fuss? ”

Just after Lin Fan and the others went out, the smile on Liao Guangpu's face disappeared, replaced by an indescribable coldness, although his face was still a little ruddy after drinking, but the drunken and coaxed alcohol just now had completely dissipated.

He stared at the door and said to Huang Xinfeng behind him: "Third child, don't underestimate them, judging from just now, these two people are not as simple as they seem!"

Huang Xinfeng pursed the corners of his lips, "What's the big deal?" Isn't it just that if you rely on some fists and kicks at the meeting, you dare to go wild in Yunmengze. I'm afraid they don't know how to write dead words? When the Mukden Assembly is over, see how I clean them up? ”

Liao Guangpu was a little helpless about this, the third child has always had this stinky temper, but he still persuaded him: "The third child, you have to change your temperament as no one in your eyes, and if you continue like this, sooner or later you will suffer a big loss!"

Zhou Xinfeng didn't take Liao Guangpu's words to heart, but he also knew that the second brother was for his own good, so he said reluctantly: "Yes, second brother!" I made a note of it. ”

Liao Guangpu shook his head, the country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to change, and it is not an overnight thing to change.

Therefore, he didn't expect the third child to get rid of these habits immediately, and with himself and his eldest brother pressing, he wouldn't make any trouble in the future.

"Second brother, since they have rejected your solicitation, so ignorant of lifting, do you want me to give them some colors to see?" Huang Xinfeng asked unwillingly.

What he said just now was forgotten by the third child in the blink of an eye, which really gave Liao Guangpu a little headache.

"Who said they rejected my solicitation? That Lei Geng was already moved just now, but he still can't trust us now, and he still has precautions in his heart. ”

"But it doesn't matter, as long as they hesitate a little more, when they are in the Mukden Conference, they will have more scruples, and there will be less chance of getting ahead, and we will have an extra chance of winning."

"So the third child, you have been more honest in the past two days, don't provoke them, everything has to wait until after the Fengtian Conference. When the situation is under control, you can crush them if you want to! ”

"I see, second brother. Then I'll put up with it for a few more days! Huang Xinfeng said angrily.

Lin Fan and the others swayed back to the cottage, and Chen Fangshu and the others hurriedly helped them into the courtyard.

Chen Fangshu quietly looked around, nodded at Lin Fan, and asked Zhang Ping to watch outside, in case someone approached, and then led them into the house.

After avoiding Yun Mengze's ears and eyes, Lin Fan and Wang Hu naturally didn't have to be drunk anymore.

Lin Fan asked Chen Fangshu, "How are you investigating?"

"We went around the whole island in the middle of the lake, which is not big, but it is not small. I have roughly estimated the number of people here, I am afraid that there are no less than a thousand, and most of them are strong men, most of them are bandits, if you count women and children, then even more. ”

"And this is only the largest of the small islands they occupy, they have several small islands nearby, forming a corner with this place, which can support each other in the encirclement and suppression of the official army, and can also be used as a retreat. However, I don't know where those islands are! Chen Fangshu replied.

Lin Fan joked: "It's normal not to know, if you were asked to inquire on the first day, where would Yun Mengze still be able to develop to this day?"

Everyone was amused by Lin Fan, and the pressure in their hearts was invisibly relieved.

After laughing a few words, Lin Fan then asked, "Have you ever inquired about what Wang Yunye's Fengtian Conference is going to do and what is its purpose?"

Chen Fangshu shook his head, "I talked to the people here on the road, and they were all vague about this Fengtian Conference, and they were even more flickering, just saying that Wang Yunye attached great importance to this matter, and nothing else could be said." ”

Lin Fan nodded: "Since Wang Yunye is so mysterious, I think that in addition to those big and small leaders, the people below may not know the details." And this place is so big, a few of us look like fresh faces, and the people here will definitely pay more attention to you when chatting with you, even if they know, they won't tell us, and it's normal that they can't ask. ”

Chen Fangshu snorted and said, "I also inquired, and in recent days, people from other forces have often asked them about the Fengtian Conference. It can be seen that not only us, but other forces still don't know what Wang Yunye's purpose is for gathering everyone this time. ”

"By the way, what did you gain from this banquet?"

After Lin Fan explained their affairs at the banquet in detail, Chen Fangshu teased: "Wang Yunye's handwriting is not small, there are more than 1,000 bandits under Yun Mengze, and as soon as he makes a move, he is a team of 100 people, and he is generous."

"But if they want to win over adults, aren't they worried about the anger of Shuanglongling?"

Lin Fan said: "Judging from Liao Guangpu's performance, he is not very worried about this, and he seems to be very confident that he will be able to subdue us."

Then he said: "Lei Geng is not a long-established figure, they have such a generous offer, so what about the others? Especially those lords of one side, what conditions should they offer, they can't just win over our family, right? ”

Chen Fangshu's face changed: "According to what the adults said, the accumulation of the conditions they prescribe is by no means something that Yun Mengze can bear now." Why did they do it? And what is the basis for this? Besides, other people aren't stupid enough to believe this, right? ”

"That's right, it's unrealistic to expect these outlaws to take refuge without real benefits in front of you, and there's only one way to deliver on these promises."

"That is, to annex all the nearby forces, strengthen Yunmengze, and at the same time recruit troops and horses, and pull together a team, as long as these are done, those promises will not be a problem."

"Also, at that point, it's not up to them to decide whether or not these promises are kept. The wood is already in the boat, and even if they don't honor it at that time, what can others do with them! ”

Lin Fan's words made everyone break out in a cold sweat. Wang Hu was shocked: "My lord is saying that Yun Mengze wants to annex all the nearby forces, what are they trying to do?"

Chen Fangshu thought about it even more, he frowned and said, "Yun Mengze already has thousands of people, if he annexes various forces, at least thousands of people. If you want to recruit troops and horses to expand your power, can you feed thousands or even tens of thousands of people with this Yunmengze waters? ”

Lin Fan nodded and said, "This is the crux of the matter!" But with Yun Mengze, he can't feed so many people anyway. If Wang Yunye really achieved his goal, whether it was to feed these people or expand his power, he would have the only choice left. ”

Chen Fangshu continued: "That's going ashore!" As long as they go ashore, they can plunder the state and county, use it to feed their soldiers and horses, and even occupy the city and conquer the city, even if it is not impossible to be the king and hegemon in the future. ”

"That's right, if our estimate is right, this is Wang Yunye's plan, it seems that this person has a lot of ambitions!" Lin Fan said with a smile.

Chen Fangshu asked again: "But since Wang Yunye is so ambitious, we are in the tiger's den, how can we stop him?" If we fail, I'm afraid Anzhou and nearby states and counties will suffer from military disasters! ”

Lin Fan's face also became heavy, and he said in a deep voice: "Fang Shu is right, the safety of millions of people in nearby states and counties this time is all on us, so we can only succeed and not fail!" ”

"But how are we going to deal with it?" Wang Hu asked.

Lin Fan thought for a moment before he spoke: "This Fengtian Conference is a Hongmen banquet, we can guess it, and others can guess it." This time, all of the people invited by Yun Mengze were all strong and powerful, but not everyone was willing to be swallowed up by others, and they lived under others from then on. ”

"What's more, after Wang Yunye succeeds, other people can survive and even enjoy glory and wealth, and they, the lords of one of the forces, have become threats, and they can't be eliminated for a reason. Therefore, as a last resort, these people are unwilling to be swallowed up by Yun Mengze. ”

"What the adults said is good, but Yun Mengze is powerful, everyone knows that the rafters that come out will rot first, I'm afraid that no one will dare to come out at that time!" Chen Fangshu wondered.

"So what we have to do next is to contact these forces that are dissatisfied with Yun Mengze and mobilize them, as long as there are many people, we can give those people three points of courage." Lin Fan said.

"But let's wait a night, and try not to be the first bird, lest anyone worry about it. If there is no movement today, we will investigate for another day tomorrow to see if those forces are dissatisfied with Yun Mengze, and we will contact again. But in my opinion, there shouldn't be a need for us to take action, and I'm afraid that some of the forces that came earlier can't sit still. ”

"Ahem... Ahem! As soon as everyone finished deliberating, they heard Zhang Ping's cough suddenly coming from outside the door.

In a hurry, Lin Fan directly blew out the oil lamp in the house, making the room suddenly dark, and he couldn't see his fingers.

"Who?" Lin Fan asked Zhang Ping in the courtyard outside the house.

Without the light source, everyone couldn't see Lin Fan's expression at this time, but they still heard a trace of solemnity in his voice.

"Leader Thunder, someone's coming!" Zhang Ping said loudly.
