In the afternoon of the same day, Li Chengke, Xiao Dashan and Su Can all received letters from Ye Shaolong.

Ye Shaolong briefly informed the three of them of the news he knew in the letter, and then asked them to defend with peace of mind. Finally, it was mentioned that the Dutch side would send troops at a critical moment to help the port of Tianjin jointly deal with the enemy's navy.

Out of consideration that the Netherlands would send troops, Ye Shaolong asked Su Can to draw out 5,000 musket battalions and go to the capital to support Li Chengke. And he himself was not idle, but left 5,000 soldiers to stay in Yejiabao.

On the same day, he also rushed to the capital with the remaining 10,000 troops, and he had to stay in Yejiabao in person because he was not at ease with Tianjin City.

Just in case, Ye Shaolong had to stay, but now it's different, once the Dutch Navy joins Tianjin Port, there will be no suspense at all, and this part of the sea will definitely not lose.

After all, the Netherlands is the boss of the Eight-Nation Alliance, and they are naturally dependent on their strength. Most of the strength of the foreigners is manifested at sea, so it is not a problem for the Dutch navy to resist the 50,000 coalition forces together with the navy of Yejiabao.

On the same day, in the evening, Ye Shaolong took the lead in leading 10,000 soldiers to arrive in the capital, and he was able to be so fast, which was so much that the cement road was paved throughout the process.

And Werther, who followed Ye Shaolong together, was also shocked by this cement road. When he heard that under Ye Shaolong's rule, all the cities had been completely paved with such cement roads, and his contempt for Ye Shaolong was suddenly disintegrated.

Werther's cognition of Ye Shaolong has also changed from disdain at the beginning to treating him differently now.

Li Chengke personally led the army to greet him outside the city, and after receiving Ye Shaolong, everyone gathered together. Ye Shaolong also introduced them to Witt and Li Chengke, and they got to know each other.

This time, Witte did not show contempt, and greeted everyone very politely.

If Ye Shaolong hadn't seen his true face earlier, he might have been deceived by this guy's acting skills. And his evaluation of Werther at the moment is two words 'hypocrisy'.

Didn't pay too much attention to Werther's affairs, after all, he was just a microphone. Except for passing on the news, he didn't have any place to help Ye Shaolong.

On the contrary, having him by his side seems to be like the Dutch side planting a spy by his side, which makes Ye Shaolong feel very unhappy.

After all, no foreigners were allowed to enter Yejiabao's influence. Therefore, Ye Shaolong can say with certainty that foreigners' understanding of him until now must still stay in the most basic information.

Now that Werther is coming, there must be Ste Haoran's careful thinking in this, so Ye Shaolong will be more or less wary of Werther.

The heart of defense is indispensable, and it is always wrong to be careful, once the Seven Nations Alliance in front of you retreats. Since then, the cooperation between Ye Shaolong and Ster Haoran has come to an end.

The two sides will be enemies more than friends in the future, Ye Shaolong understands this very well in his heart!

asked people to arrange for Witt to go down to rest, and when he left, Ye Shaolong told Li Chengke: "It's good to know this person, but no matter what happens in the future, you can hide it if you can, let alone let him go anywhere in our army, and always guard against him." ”

Li Cheng is a smart person, he has already guessed a little from Ye Shaolong's attitude towards Werther. Hearing Ye Shaolong's words at this moment, he was not surprised at all.

Li Chengke nodded to show that he understood: "I know, handsome!" ”

Ye Shaolong nodded with satisfaction, and then had time to look inside the lobby.

In addition to Li Chengke, there were more than a dozen deputy generals, but they didn't see the iron tower that was usually the most unwilling to be lonely, Ye Shaolong frowned: "Why isn't the iron tower here, could it be that he was seriously injured last time?" ”

When it comes to the tower, Li Chengke is full of anger, but think about this guy because he was shot in the thigh, and now he is lying at home all day to recuperate. Li Cheng was very helpless: "The big man doesn't know, the thigh of the iron tower was shot twice in the last battle, and the doctor said that although it did not hurt the muscles and bones, the wound was very deep and not small, and it must be carefully recuperated, otherwise I am afraid that the leg will not be protected in the future." ”

"It's so badly hurt!" Ye Shaolong was slightly surprised.

Because the letter sent by Li Chengke last time didn't mention too much about the tower, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

After pondering for a moment, Ye Shaolong still decided to go and see it in person: "Let's go, let's go see him!" ”

Li Cheng didn't say much, and immediately stepped forward and led Ye Shaolong in front.

The tower is located not far from the council chamber, just across a small garden.

After Li Chengke arrived in the capital, he did not live in the palace. It's not that he doesn't want to, but Ye Shaolong doesn't allow it, the palace symbolizes imperial power, and once Ye Shaolong and them move in, it will definitely cause unnecessary trouble.

At least, except for the foreigners, the other warlords will definitely arouse their suspicions when they learn that Ye Shaolong actually stayed in the imperial city.

If these warlords join forces with foreigners in the end, then he Ye Shaolong will really lose more than he gains.

The two of them arrived at the door of the tower as soon as they arrived at the door of the tower, and they heard the tower yelling inside the house to go outside the house, not wanting to lie on the bed like a salted fish in the house.

Ye Shaolong motioned for Li Chengke to push open the door and strode in, only to see the iron tower lying on its back on a wooden bed. There was a Lang Zhong who persuaded him while treating his wound and changing the dressing.

"You kid can't save his legs, and you still want to jump outside!" Ye Shaolong's shouting was better than the doctor's bitter heart.

The tower suddenly heard Ye Shaolong's voice, and after a short period of surprise, his heart immediately became weak.

After all, this injury, as well as the loss of two thousand brothers in the cavalry battalion, can be said to be caused by him, if Ye Shaolong wants to pursue it, even if he is a seven-foot man, he feels ashamed of the brothers of the cavalry battalion.

"Young Master, you're here!" The tower is very interesting, and he didn't shout the handsome, but called the young master, which naturally had an ulterior purpose.

Sure enough, after Ye Shaolong heard him call the young master, the seriousness on his face suddenly turned into a smile, and he shook his head helplessly, Ye Shaolong personally stepped forward to look at his wound.

Two bullets had been taken out, and at the base of the tower's thigh, there was a wound the size of a bowl, and the flesh and blood in it were blurred, which was very scary.

That is, the body of the tower can withstand such injuries, if it is replaced by a thinner person, even if it is not dead, it will definitely be half dead, where can it still be alive and healthy like the tower is now.

"Take care of your injuries, if you waste this leg, how will you fight with me in the future!" Ye Shaolong knew the bullish temper of the iron tower, so he had to persuade in a lighter tone.
