"Huang Min, I haven't seen you for a month, and you dare to scold Grandpa and me when you have grown your skills?" Lin Yuan just sat down here, watching Huang Min who walked in keep hiding behind Li Chengshuang, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and said with a smile.

Huang Min's originally dodging eyes instantly became flustered, raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Lin Yuan, seeing Lin Yuan looking at him with a smile on his face, he couldn't help but panic, hurriedly stood up, looked at Lin Yuan and said: "Grandpa atonement, the little one doesn't know that you are outside the village, if you know, you will definitely not do this." ”

Liu Wei beside Lin Yuan looked at Huang Min with some surprise, at this time, in his eyes, Huang Min was like a young child who had made a mistake in front of his parents, was this still the bandit leader who shocked Ruyang in the mouth of the scout?

"Okay, I'm still as timid as ever, how can I rest assured that you will be in charge of the army in the future?"

For Huang Min Lin Yuan has his own arrangements, it is not that he has high martial arts in his hands, but he is not very suitable for commanding troops, this Huang Min was able to gather hundreds of people by himself before, which shows that he still has some ability, plus the force is not low, and he basically has the ability to lead the troops.

"Thank you grandpa for not pursuing it." At this time, Huang Min didn't notice the point of Lin Yuan's words, but was grateful to Lin Yuan for letting him go once. On the other hand, Zhu Ning's expression lit up, and he looked at Lin Yuan with some excitement and asked.

"Grandpa, are you talking about going to war?"

Lin Yuan glanced at Zhu Ning and said with a smile: "This depends on whether the other party gives me this opportunity, you must know that the opponent is not stupid." ”

Everyone in the room, including Liu Wei, had bright eyes, and looked at Lin Yuan with some excitement, this news was really shocking, since the end of the first war in the north last year, Da Zhou almost had no big war, and military merits were almost impossible to obtain, Da Zhou can be said to be a country based on martial arts, if there is no military merit, it is difficult to be promoted, Yasukuni Gong said that there is a war to be fought, that means that there are military merits to be obtained, this kind of good thing, for them, naturally hope that the other party will do it.

"Grandpa, how can this kind of errand come from the other party, since there are signs, let's destroy them, how can there be so many things." When Huang Min heard that he could cut people, he instantly became excited, it doesn't matter if the army has military merits or not, the main thing is that he wants to cut people, and he is almost stupid to practice training in this village.

"Act steadily, don't act recklessly for the generals, this is the words of my Great Zhou Army, you have to remember, the enemy does not move, I do not move, we can stand there to deter them, this is the way to go." Rash action can only expose your hole cards too early. ”

After Lin Yuan persuaded him, he almost believed it. If it weren't for the small number of soldiers in his hands, Lin Yuan would be more excited than Huang Min at this time, and he would be able to bring people to level the Xue family.

"In short, things have to come step by step, Liu Wei." After Lin Yuan said a word, he looked at Liu Wei beside him.

"The subordinates are here."

"Send someone to Jiangxian County and hand over this letter to Captain Zhang Li."

As he spoke, Lin Yuan took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Liu Wei. I need to transfer the soldiers from Jiangxian County as soon as possible, according to the Xue family's preparations over the years, there will definitely not be too few people in my hands.

Lin Yuan was right, the Xue family did have a lot of people gathered at this time, but there were a lot of things going wrong in the middle, Xue Huaili had been in charge of these things recently, and he was already a headache.

Looking at the list handed over to him by his housekeeper, Xue Huaili had a headache at this time, frowned and looked at the housekeeper standing in front of him, shook the paper in his hand, and asked coldly, "That's all?" ”

"Back to my lord, these are the only ones who are in contact now, and there are already sixty percent of them gathered now."

Xue Huaili's face turned cold, threw the paper in his hand into the butler's face, and said in a cold voice: "Thirty thousand? Sixty percent? What are you kidding, nine of the ten mountain villages in Yuzhou were cultivated by my Xue family, and you told me that this is the case, what about Ruyang? ”

Seeing that Xue Huaili suddenly became angry, the housekeeper knelt on the ground with some fear, and kept kowtowing and said, "Uncle, spare your life." Lao Er didn't lie, this is indeed all the horses that can be contacted, and there are only 50,000 horses here. Although there are many over there in Ruyang, but、But it's ......"

"But what? If you're not afraid of death, say it quickly! Xue Huaili suddenly stood up and kicked the butler who was still kneeling on the ground.

The housekeeper hurriedly got up and said tremblingly: "Uncle, this cottage in the Ruyang area has been annexed by a village in the past month, and none of our people can stop it. ”

"Dangyan Mountain? Isn't that Yan Jiu's territory? When did it become this Huang Min? Xue Huaili's brows furrowed slightly.

"Uncle Hui, this is also what happened a month ago, after Yan Jiu was killed by an arrow, Dangyan Mountain dispersed, Huang Min took people to occupy the village, and then began to attack the surrounding cottages, and almost all of our people were pulled out,"

"Is it only ours?" Xue Huaitao asked with some confusion.

"No, this Huang Min took Ruyang as the center, swept all the cottages within a hundred miles, and said that there can only be one village in this Ruyang area, and if he dares to come out, he will destroy one." The housekeeper said with a sad face.

It is said that Huang Min is also domineering, and in just this month, he will uproot the cottages in Ruyang. It was also stipulated that they could not go down the mountain to grab food and money, and they would not intercept and kill passing caravans.

If it weren't for the reason, he would like to issue a plaque to Huang Min, thanking him for sweeping away the bandits that have plagued Ruyang for nearly ten years, and he is a good example for the imperial court.

"This Huang Min is so powerful in the Ruyang area, how many people does he have?" Xue Huaili was a little puzzled, he felt that Huang Min was now big in Ruyang, and there must be a lot of people in his hands, maybe he could win it over.

"Five, five hundred." The butler said tremblingly.

"Five hundred? What are you kidding, you have more than 500 people in your hands, and there are 100 times more than him, so that he is so rampant in Ruyang? ”

Xue Huaili looked at the housekeeper, eager to hack him to death with a knife, this kind of rice bucket, tens of thousands of people can't handle five hundred people, even tens of thousands of pigs can trample you five hundred people to death, how many rice buckets have you cultivated with a lot of money over the years?

Xue Huaili didn't dare to think at this time, whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for the Xue family to start an incident with these tens of thousands of rice buckets, could they expect them to be angry with Li Zhou's army?

"Uncle is angry, it's not that I don't work hard, it's really that Huang Min is too fierce, we have also shot, but this Huang Min must be the first in every battle, and his subordinates are all people who are not afraid of death, and it is really difficult to deal with our manpower in just one round." The housekeeper shook his head, and now he remembered the scene of besieging Huang Min and being killed by him, which still made him feel a little cold. The man was so fierce that for Huang Min, slashing seemed to be his only pleasure.

Xue Huaili no longer had the strength to be angry at this time, looking at the housekeeper kneeling on the ground, Xue Huaili waved his hand and said: "I will slowly settle accounts with you in the future, go and send a letter to Huang Min on Dangyan Mountain, tell the other party to go down the mountain to help my Xue family succeed, and when the time comes, he will be added to the official and become a knight, what does he want from my Xue family." If you don't agree, after I have something to do, I will inevitably lead troops to destroy his Dangyan Cottage. ”

"Yes, uncle, the little one will do it." When the butler heard this, he hurriedly stood up and ran outside. Looking at the back that almost fell, Xue Huaili had doubts about his subordinates for the first time, can these people really help my Xue family succeed?

Inside the Dangyan Mountain.

Lin Yuan looked at the envelope in his hand and tried to keep himself from laughing, knowing that when he saw the last sentence in the letter, he still couldn't bear it and laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, I'm laughing to death Grandpa Ben, what kind of idiot can write this kind of thing, this Xue Huaili won't be looking for someone who hasn't read a book to do things."

"Grandpa, what did Xue Huaili say?" Zhu Ning on the side asked with some curiosity.

Early this morning, a letter came in the Dangyan Village, which was done by someone from the Xue family, Zhu Ning didn't read it first but handed it to Lin Yuan, and at this time, seeing that the Duke of Jingguo was smiling so happily, he couldn't help but be a little curious.

Handing the letter in his hand to Zhu Ning, Lin Yuan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said with a smile: "See for yourself, what kind of Spring and Autumn dream this Xue Huaili is doing." ”

After Zhu Ning took it, he glanced at it a few times, and suddenly burst out laughing, making the others a little curious about what the Xue family said in the letter.

"Xiucai, tell me, what did the Xue family say?" Huang Min asked with some curiosity.

"Huang Min, this letter from the Xue family said that you should go down the mountain to help him get started, and I also told you the place, just in Nanyang City, and promised you a high-ranking official, once the matter is completed, it is not a problem to add an official to the knight, what do you want, and threaten you, if you don't agree, he will return after the Nanyang incident

Head to clean you up, are you afraid? Zhu Ning gave a general overview of the contents of the letter.

"I'm afraid of him as a ghost, if Lao Tzu is afraid of him, dare to pull him out so many mountains? Let him be brave enough to come to grandpa and I will come, how much come, how much grandpa I will cut, and the military exploits of the door, don't be in vain. Huang Min said with some disdain.

"I'm afraid you can't wait for him to come and cut you, with this IQ, you don't understand the truth that you must first be inside the outside, and if you can get out of Nanyang City, your ancestors will bless you." Zhu Ning said with a smile.

"What do you mean by that?" Li Chengshuang asked with some curiosity.

"Ruyang is the throat of Nanyang, there are not people from the Xue family here, if the Xue family wants to succeed, they must first go to Ruyang, and then take Nanyang, only in this way can we ensure that the road from north to south is not blocked, but once Ruyang falls into the hands of the enemy, the Xue family is like a turtle in that urn in Nanyang, and there is nowhere to escape. It's just that now the Xue family has abandoned Ruyang and focused on Nanyang, and Zhu Ning is not wrong to say that they can't get out of Nanyang. Lin Yuan took over and said.

"What Grandpa said is very true, he is worthy of being the leader of the troops who has been fighting outside all the year round." Zhu Ning slapped a small sycophant.

"Then what are you going to do now, Grandpa?" Li Chengshuang asked.

"Go to Ruyang and meet this upright prefect of Ruyang, who is not moved. By the way, he brought Xue Huaili back to the previous letter. ”

"Grandpa, what is this letter about?"

"One word, get out!"

After speaking, Lin Yuan got up and walked out of the lobby and walked outside.
