Two days later, Lin Feng met with the envoy of Zheng Jin, the envoy of Fengxiang Festival, in the city lord's mansion, and the envoy saluted and took his seat, and said: "My general has long heard the name of the Marquis of Zhongwu, but he can't visit in person because of the frequent wars, so he will come to visit in the future!" I am fortunate to see the Marquis of Zhongwu today, which is really a blessing for three lives! ”

Lin Feng smiled slightly, looked at the envoy and replied: "Hehe, I have won awards, I have also heard of the prestige of General Zheng Zheng of Fengxiang Festival for a long time, and I hope to say hello for Ben Hou!" ”

"It must be, please rest assured!" The envoy began the theme after a few polite sentences: "This time I came to visit Hou Ye, it is really forced by the situation, my general wants to invite Hou Ye to send troops to Fengzhou, and our army will attack Chang'an together, and jointly fight against the Huangchao rebels of Daqi!" ”

"Very good, very good! That's what I mean! Speaking of this, Lin Feng's words changed: "However, my Shannan Province is also an eventful time at this time, Deng and Tang Erzhou have now been conquered by Zhu Wen, the general under Huang Chao, Jing and Xiang Erzhou are not safe!" Ben Hou is also more than enough but not enough! ”

Seeing that the envoy was about to speak, Lin Feng hurriedly added: "But please come and rest assured, despite this, but General Zheng opened his mouth to invite, if Benhou does not send troops, wouldn't it give General Zheng face?" Besides, now it is the rebels of Daqi who endanger my Tang Dynasty, as the envoy of the Tang Festival, how can I sit idly by! Hehe, let me take a few days, I will transfer 20,000 soldiers and horses from various states and counties, and send troops to Fengzhou, and I will definitely try my best to cooperate with General Zheng at that time! ”

The messenger's outstretched hand slowly fell again, stood up, clasped his hands together, bowed slightly and saluted: "Xie Hou Ye, I often hear people say that Hou Ye understands righteousness, and when I see it today, it really deserves its reputation!" It's really impressive! ”

Lin Feng waved his hand and smiled: "Hehe, I'm smiling!" Compared to General Zheng, I'm still a little far behind! After saying that, he called a servant from outside the door and instructed: "Go and arrange a banquet for the messenger to catch the wind and wash the dust!" ”

The envoy hurriedly said on the side: "Master Xie! But forget about the banquet, the villain is burdened with a heavy responsibility, so it's better to return to his life quickly! ”

"It's good!" Lin Feng nodded and said to his subordinates, "Go and let Steward Hu arrange it." Then he said to the messenger: "In this case, then Benhou will not keep you more!" I'll ask someone below to make arrangements for you. ”

The envoy nodded and saluted: "Thank you, Master Hou!" The villain took his leave first! ”

After the envoy left, Lin Feng lit a cigarette and sat there alone and smoked, thinking about whether to send troops or not, if the troops were sent, whether to fight or not, the consumption would be too great, which was not conducive to the status quo. If you don't send troops, for a person like yourself who suddenly crossed over, he basically has no connections throughout the country, and if he doesn't send troops, he will lose an opportunity to make friends with a powerful feudal town.

At this time, Zhou Chen walked in from the outside and said to Lin Feng with a smile: "Boss, Lord Zhao came here just now, but he said that he didn't see you, let me tell you." ”

"Huh? What's up? Lin Feng raised his head and looked at Zhou Chen suspiciously.

Zhou Chen said in a mysterious whisper: "Lord Zhao said that the things you ordered have been dealt with, and in the afternoon of the tenth day, Chenlong Qianzhuang will open!" The address of the money bank has been set in the center of the city. ”

Lin Feng was shocked after hearing this, and finally came. Lin Feng stood up and let out a long breath, and said to Zhou Chen beside him: "You go to find Old Yuan and Lao Chen, you also move, ten days later, before the opening of Chenlong Money Village, prepare 10 million taels of silver for me!" ”

"What, what??? 10 million ??? Zhou Chen opened his mouth wide and looked at Lin Feng in surprise and asked.

Lin Feng walked to the door, looked at the warm sunlight, smiled slightly, turned back to Zhou Chen and nodded, "Yes!" Ten million taels of silver! No matter what method you use! ”

Zhou Chen hurriedly walked over and asked, "No, boss, can you tell me, why do you want so much money at once?" It's hard for me! ”

"Advertise!" Saying that, Lin Feng closed his right eye, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of firing at the sun in the sky, and let out a "bang!" ”

After lunch, Lin Feng went to the barracks outside the city, where Mao Hao and Xiaofeng were squatting and chatting under a big tree in the training ground. The two stood up and greeted Lin Feng after seeing him coming.

"Big brother!" "Brother-in-law!"

"Hmm!" Lin Feng nodded, took off his sunglasses, squinted at the recruits who were training and asked, "How are you doing?" ”

Although the two are responsible for recruitment and training together, Mao Hao is still the main one in terms of training, Mao Hao pointed to the recruits who are training and replied: "It's good, everyone is working hard!" This is thanks to our good food and salary treatment, and it is guaranteed! Now recruits are being recruited at the entrance of the barracks, and everyone is quite positive! A lot of people from distant states and counties have come here to sign up! ”

Lin Feng nodded and looked at Xiaofeng: "So far, how many people have signed up?" ”

Xiaofeng took out a notebook from the burden on the horse, and simply flipped through it and replied: "More than 65,000 people have already signed up!" It is estimated that in half a month, enough 100,000 recruits will be recruited! ”

Then Lin Feng briefly told the two of them about the envoy sent by the Fengxiang Festival in the morning to request the dispatch of troops, and Mao Hao shook his head resolutely after hearing it: "No, our veterans are simply not enough to send troops to attack the Great Qi rebels, and the most recruits this time have only been trained for less than a month, so they can't go to the battlefield at all!" ”

Xiaofeng also nodded on the side and agreed: "Brother Hao is right! Brother-in-law, you see that we recruits are okay to train here, but if we really pull it to the battlefield, the 10,000 people may not be able to top the 500 regular army! ”

"I know, I know what you're saying! But I can't help it, you said that if I don't agree, it will not conform to the times, and the Fengxiang Festival will definitely hold a grudge because of this! Lin Feng sighed and continued: "Hey! I thought so, pull out the first 20,000 or 30,000 recruits, and let Xiao Hao's Ritian Legion lead the team to Fengzhou. After we went, we just didn't fight, anyway, where we were training. Although we didn't fight, but we also responded to the envoy of Fengxiang Festival, even he can't say anything about us on the surface, right? After finishing speaking, Lin Feng looked at the two of them, waiting for their reply.

Mao Hao frowned and replied: "This is also a helpless way, but if I leave, the training of recruits here will not be able to keep up with the rhythm!" Saying that, Mao Hao raised his head and looked at Lin Feng and asked: "Big brother, I just met a younger brother in the Ritian Legion some time ago, named Mao Xi, who is also my right-hand man, do you think this will work, let him lead the Ritian Legion over, and I will continue to stay here to train recruits!" ”

After listening to Xiao Hao's words, Lin Feng thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, you can look at the arrangement for this matter!" I'm not in a hurry for these few days. By the way, you two remember, ten days later, our first money village in Shannan Road, Chenlong Money Village, will open, and the military salary will be issued in the future, and the silver ticket of Chenlong Money Village will be issued in the future! Don't forget to bring some generals over to cheer you on! ”

"Remember! Don't worry, you'll be there! ”

Lin Feng turned his head to look at the training of the recruits for a while, and felt a little bored, so he said hello to the two and rode back.
