At the junction of Guide and Bozhou, in a small village. This is not Yuan Laoshan's control area for the time being, because they are very careful now and don't want to provoke Li Yan, so they took the initiative to withdraw from this kind of border place. And after withdrawing, it also gave Tian Yong, who fled here, a little room to survive.

Wu Ding was coming here, and he was also very strange, he was ordered by Li Yan to go to Xiayi alone, and was asked to communicate with Tian Yong. As for the specific content of the communication, it has not been decided, just to see if Tian Yong can do things for Li Yan. This time is just a communication, it doesn't matter if it succeeds or not, it's just a contact.

Several of the soldiers who escorted him over also stopped five miles away and let him come here alone. Although he was a little worried, he had no choice but to move forward.

"Stop!" A voice suddenly rang out.

Wu Ding immediately stood still, not daring to move again.

After a while, several people came out from behind the tree and surrounded Wu Ding, and one of them laughed: "Isn't this the general of Wu Ding?" Why, you came to vote for us? ”

Wu Ding took a closer look, finally recognized it, and said, "Isn't this Brother Wang?" It's great that you're here to keep watch. I want to see Brother Tian, you can help lead the way. ”

Brother Wang looked behind him and asked, "Is there anyone else?" ”

"No, I'm alone." Wu Ding immediately replied.

After the thieves searched carefully behind for a while, they finally took Wu Ding to see Tian Yong.

In a tiled house, Wu Ding finally met Tian Yong. Tian Yong was eating a roast chicken, but there was no wine on the table, only boiled water.

"Brother Tian, you're doing well, you have roast chicken to eat." Wu Ding said with a smile.

Tian Yong glanced at Wu Ding, who came in, took a big sip of water, and sent the chicken in his mouth down. said: "How about it, come and live this fairy-like life with me, right?" ”

Wu Ding shook his head with a smile and said, "Forget it, I can eat a few meals of meat every month." ”

"And what are you here for? Is it persuasion? Tian Yong asked with a sneer, and then continued to nibble on the roast chicken.

Wu Ding sat down opposite Tian Yong and said, "Yes and no. Let's talk about it with the two of us. ”

Tian Yong threw the roast chicken in his hand back and said, "Then, you go out to eat, don't let people in." ”

The soldiers behind him reached out and took most of the roast chicken in their hands, and said happily: "Obey!" General Xie! After that, a few people went outside with the roast chicken, and closed the door by the way.

Wu Ding shook his head and sighed: "Alas, the brothers are all suffering like this? ”

Tian Yong didn't answer, but asked with a sneer: "Have you become a thousand presidents?" ”

"That's right," Wu Ding nodded with a smile: "Named Qianzong." ”

"Cut!" Tian Yong sneered and said, "That's not as big as my official." I have at least 10,000 people under my command now, and if I am recruited, I am afraid that there will be no problem with a deputy general and a general, right? ”

Wu Ding smiled and said, "Our brothers, don't use it for nothing." You have up to 5,000 now, and at least half of them won't listen to you completely. ”

"Say it," Tian Yong said lightly: "What did Li Yan ask you to do?" I know he's sending someone to keep an eye on me, but it's not that easy for him to catch me. ”

Wu Ding nodded and said, "General Li asked me to come to see if you are willing to cooperate with us." If you are willing to cooperate, he will ensure the safety of your family and you will be recruited in the future. ”

"He dares to touch our family to try?!" Tian Yong stood up angrily and shouted: "Lao Tzu broke his body into ten thousand pieces!" ”

The soldiers outside the door also rushed in, and the knives in their hands had been drawn.

Wu Ding sat still, looking at Tian Yong without speaking.

Tian Yong waved his hand and ordered: "All go out!" Who let you in?! Get out! ”

After the soldiers had gone out, Wu Ding spoke: "It's not General Li who wants to do something to your family." If you continue to make such trouble, sooner or later the imperial court will send troops to help suppress it. When the time comes, if someone who comes is ruthless and wants to use your family to ask for credit, won't we also be embarrassed? ”

"If there is any problem with our family, I will settle accounts with him Li Yan!" Tian Yong sat down and said viciously.

Wu Ding asked, "So, did you promise to do things for General Li?" ”

"Nope!" Tian Yong said clearly: "I won't do anything for him!" I'm no longer active here, I'll take the troops south and go to Zhang Xianzhong. ”

Wu Ding immediately reminded: "Don't be stupid!" Now the imperial court is mobilizing a large army, and Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng are the targets to be exterminated. If you go now, then you are really a thief, and your family is also a thief. Although it won't die, it will always be inferior. Now that calm has basically returned to all parts of Germany, life for your family will become more and more difficult. ”

"It can't be so fast!" Tian Yong said in disbelief.

Wu Ding said lightly: "You send someone to Suizhou, Ningling will take a look at it, and the place has basically settled down." How long has it been since Li Yan came? Other places are also fast. ”

Tian Yong was silent for a while before he said, "You go back, I won't do anything for him." But I won't go to the boundaries of Takfu to cause trouble again. So you tell Li Yan that it's best not to let our family have an accident, otherwise I won't let him go! ”

Wu Ding stood up helplessly and said, "Okay then." You'd better not go to Zhang Xianzhong, otherwise it will be irreparable. Don't try to get your family out, it's not safe for them to wander around with you, and you can at least live safely if you stay in Guide. ”

"Brother Xie reminds." Tian Yong hugged his fists and thanked him. After that, he commanded to the door: "Come on, you go and send General Wu." ”

The soldiers outside the door came in and promised, "Yes!" ”

Wu Ding clenched his fists and said goodbye, and left the camp with the few personal soldiers.

After leaving the camp, one of the soldiers asked, "General Wu, our family is not in danger, right?" ”

Wu Ding said with a smile: "Don't worry, since General Li let you go, he won't do anything to your family." As long as you don't defect to Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng, your family will not be in any danger. However, your family will not be able to share the land, and life may be more difficult in the future. ”

"Divide the fields?" The soldiers asked in surprise.

Wu Ding nodded and said, "It's like doing it in Qi County, but your family is recorded, even if someone is willing to join the army, they won't be selected, so there won't be any land." ”

Several pro-soldiers looked at each other, their faces full of regret.

Wu Ding didn't say anything more, and after leaving Tian Yong's control area, he headed north alone. After that, he met the people sent by Li Yan to escort him and went back to Xiayi County to resume his life.
