"Alas, you don't have to be so nervous, I don't eat people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Ling Yan smiled a little helplessly and sat down at the table, "I also had dinner with your father, your father is not like you, we are very happy to eat...... By the way, his old man's alcohol consumption is really good, hehe......"

Liu Hui arched his hand and said: "General Yan, thank you for taking care of my father, the general's kindness......"

Ling Yan hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Liu Hui's words: "Hey, don't thank me, you have also done me a great favor, and you are the ones who really want to thank you...... By the way, when I have time, I will thank your father! ”

Liu Hui said: "As long as the general orders, I can invite my father to come at any time......"

"Well," Ling Yan nodded, "It's too late today, tomorrow, I'll treat you to another meal." ”

Liu Hui said gratefully: "Thank you for General Yan's kindness on behalf of my father......" After speaking, his expression became a little flustered, as if he was worried about something, "It's just a military order set by General Zuo, I am not allowed to leave without permission, and I must not meet my father from time to time, otherwise, I will be subject to the ...... of military law."

Ling Yan grinned: "Now, Juye City is already mine, I have the final say, I want you to see your father, you can go to see it, you don't have to listen to other people's orders...... I decree now that you may leave at any time and go home, and that no one shall hinder you. ”

Liu Hui's eyes widened, as if he didn't say what Ling Yan said: "General...... Don't tease under ......"

Ling Yan smiled: "I'm not joking, what I said is true. Don't worry, no one will dare to stop you in the future. If anyone hurts you or your father, tell me. ”

Liu Hui looked at Ling Yan stunned for a while, and then as if he had reacted, he knelt on the ground and thanked him again and again: "Thank you, General Yan!" Thank you, General Yan! ”

Ling Yan hurriedly said, "Hurry up!" Let's eat together. ”

Liu Hui stood up, looking very embarrassed: "This ......"

Ling Yan beckoned: "It's okay...... Just let me command you...... You can't disobey, can you? After speaking, Ling Yan laughed.

"Yes......" Liu Hui couldn't afford to make such a joke, so he smiled awkwardly, and then was forced to sit opposite Ling Yan.

Ling Yan sandwiched a large piece of meat for Liu Hui and said with a smile: "I ordered you to eat this piece of meat." ”

Liu Hui was very restrained, agreed, and picked up the meat and ate it.

Ling Yan smiled with satisfaction and ate it himself—not to mention, Liu Hui's cooking skills were really good.

During the meal, Ling Yan was chatting with Liu Hui.

After Liu Hui gradually relaxed, Ling Yan said: "Liu Hui, this time I was able to break through Juye City, it all depends on your father and son, you have helped me a lot, I will definitely repay you...... But I can't think of how to repay you, so why don't you say what you want, as long as I can do it, I will help you achieve it. ”

Liu Hui hurriedly put down his chopsticks and arched his hand: "General Yan has promised me to see my father, this is already a favor......

Ling Yan waved his hand indifferently: "This can't be counted, this is what I promised just now, now you want to be individual." ”

Liu Hui said gratefully: "General Yan has been so good to us, how dare I mention anything again?" If I can go home to see my father and live in peace, I will be content. ”

Ling Yan saw that Liu Hui had always "not been on the road", although he was helpless, but there was no way, after thinking about it, he said, "That's it...... You live here in peace now, and when I come back from the crusade against the thieves, I will come back to pick you up and your father, and we will go back to the Great Victory City together. ”

"Great Victory City?" Liu Hui was stunned.

Ling Yan smiled: "That's my place, and it's much more prosperous and safer than here." ”

Liu Hui probably didn't expect him to get this kind of treatment, and he was so excited that he almost cried: "General Yan is so kind to us, I ...... Never forget! ”

Ling Yan pouted mischievously - he was used to hearing this kind of talk, and he wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

Liu Hui hurriedly said: "General Yan, if you don't think I'm dragging the general, I'm willing to march with the general!" ”

Ling Yan thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No, you better stay here and accompany your father first...... After that, I don't know what enemies I will encounter, which is very dangerous...... It's always a lot safer in this city. ”

Liu Hui hurriedly said: "General Yan, I'm not the one who is afraid of death!" The general marches all the way, and he definitely needs someone to make food, and I may not be able to help with other helps, but I can make a fire and make food, and I can ......"

Ling Yan smiled: "I'm not saying that you're afraid of death, it's just that I don't want you to take risks, if there is really any accident, what should your father do?" However, I understand your wishes, and if you want to do something for me, then just cook some more delicious food while I'm still here, hehe......"

Seeing that Ling Yan refused to let him accompany him in the crusade, Liu Hui nodded heavily: "That's good!" The general will stay here for a few more days, and I will cook some good dishes for the general. ”

"Good!" Ling Yan was very happy and raised the wine bowl, "This bowl of wine should be regarded as my thank you for your hospitality, I will do it first as a respect!" After speaking, he raised his head and drank all the wine.

After Ling Yan crossed here, he didn't learn anything else, but the amount of alcohol increased day by day, and he also became very bold.

Liu Hui also hurriedly picked up the bowl and drank it all.

After that, they chatted for a while, and just as Ling Yan was in high spirits, a soldier came in and said, "Your general is asking to see you outside the tent." ”

Ling Yan nodded. After a while, You Heng came in.

Ling Yan stood up and smiled at You Heng: "Brother You, you came just in time, I'm having dinner with Liu Hui, come, let's eat together." ”

You Heng looked at Liu Hui, and a hint of indifference appeared in his eyes.

Although Liu Hui was only a civilian, he was not stupid, he probably saw what You Heng meant, and hurriedly stood up and said to Ling Yan: "General Yan, since you have something to discuss, then...... I stepped back. ”

Ling Yan originally didn't plan to let Liu Hui leave, even if You Heng had something to discuss with him, he didn't care if Liu Hui heard it - Liu Hui was just a civilian after all, not to mention that Ling Yan had a good impression of him. However, seeing that You Heng's meaning was no more obvious, Ling Yan also followed: "Okay, then you go and get busy first, and when I have time tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will invite you and your father again." ”

Liu Hui agreed, said goodbye and left.

When Liu Hui came out of the tent, You Heng came over and sat down, looking at the food on the table: "Brother Xian, this meal is all made by Liu Hui?" ”

Ling Yan thought that You Heng was suspecting something, so he said with some puzzlement: "Yes, what's wrong?" This meal...... Any questions? ”

You Heng shook his head: "The food is nothing, but I just think that the virtuous brother is too indulgent." ”

Ling Yan was stunned: "Brother You, what are you talking about...... What is the meaning? ”

You Heng looked at Ling Yan: "Brother Xian, although Liu Hui is meritorious, after all, he still has to abide by the position of dignity and humility, and let a commoner sit on an equal footing with a virtuous brother, for a long time, it will damage the majesty of the virtuous brother." ”

Only then did Ling Yan understand what You Heng meant, he sat down and smiled: "Brother You, then Liu Hui and his father have really helped us a lot this time, otherwise this Juye City may not be able to get hold of it until now." Although he is a civilian, he should be rewarded for his merits...... Let him have a meal with me, it's nothing, don't worry, big brother, I'm measured. ”

You Heng looked at Ling Yan for a long time, but sighed.

Ling Yan felt the meaning of You Heng's sigh: It was obvious that You Heng was "proportionate" to himself, and he felt very "disproportionate".

"Brother You, do you have anything else to tell me?" Ling Yan asked tentatively, he knew that You Heng shouldn't just sigh for Liu Hui.

You Heng pondered for a moment, then asked, "Brother Xian...... The thief promised to heal General Yu's wounds? ”

Ling Yan said happily: "Yes! And he has already given his inner qi. ”

You Heng asked again: "The thief has no internal qi in his body at this time?" ”

Ling Yan said: "There should be some of them, I have seen him emit internal qi, and the light is very faint." ”

You Heng frowned slightly: "Brother Xian, how do you know that the thief general is not a show?" ”

Ling Yan smiled: "Brother You, you are too worried. I was right next to him when Colonel Zuo transmitted the internal qi to the fibrous roots, and I could see the process clearly. The national teacher told me that the root that absorbs internal qi must obtain a large amount of internal qi in order to change color. After Zuo Xiao's internal qi came out, the root of the beard really turned black. No matter how strong Zuo Xiao's internal qi is, after consuming so much internal qi, there shouldn't be much left. ”

You Heng thought for a moment, and then whispered to Ling Yan: "Brother Xian, if this is the case, then this is the best time to kill the thief general of Zuo Xiao. ”

Ling Yan was slightly stunned: "Brother You, Colonel Zuo gave up his internal qi to help me save General Yu, if I take advantage of the fire to rob at this time, it seems to be ...... It's not like a gentleman's doing......"

You Heng smiled a little indifferently: "Brother Xian, have you forgotten how he treated you and our army before?" On several occasions that day, our army was almost wiped out, and even the lives of the two of us could not be saved! ”

Ling Yan recalled that the butcher was killed and Yu Genggen was almost killed by Colonel Zuo from the city, and there was a trace of anger in his heart, but he immediately thought that Colonel Zuo was willing to sacrifice all his internal qi to heal Yu Qianggen's wounds, and it seemed that he could also offset his sins against Colonel; As for the trap that Colonel Zuo set up to defeat his own army in the past, although Ling Yan was very angry at the time, he can understand it now: after all, the purpose of the two armies is to destroy each other! Either this side defeats that side, or that side defeats this side, a life-and-death duel, naturally there will be no mercy, and there will be no mercy on his subordinates.

"Brother You...... You're right," Ling Yan was very embarrassed, "but didn't I already promise him?" It's always bad to be untrustworthy, right? Colonel Zuo has no internal qi now, and he doesn't pose any threat to us at all, even if he kills him, it's just like killing an ordinary person, but this is not very good for the reputation of our army......"

You Heng immediately asked, "Brother Xian, what did you promise him?" Did you promise him not to kill him? ”

Ling Yan thought about it for a while, he had promised Colonel Zuo that he would not kill his Yellow Turban soldiers, but it seemed that he really didn't say that he would not kill Colonel Zuo. He said: "I don't seem to have promised not to kill him, but since he has sincerely surrendered to us, then...... Is it necessary to kill him......"

You Heng asked in a cold voice: "Brother Xian, if you don't kill him, do you want him to march with our army?" ”

Ling Yan did not hesitate and nodded.

You Heng frowned and said slowly: "Brother Xian, there is something I still want to say...... Zuo Xiao and Yu Zhenggen are both generals of the Yellow Turban Thieves, and it is unknown whether they really surrendered...... Once these two suddenly rebel in the army in the future, and then join forces with the thief army, then our army will definitely be in danger! ”

Ling Yan nodded: "What your eldest brother said makes sense. I've thought about this too...... I don't think General Yu will rebel, I think he really surrendered to our army...... As for General Zuo, I don't think he's lying to me, otherwise he wouldn't have made such a big sacrifice...... Even if he surrendered by deception, he has no internal qi, what can he do? ”

You Heng didn't speak, and he didn't say anything.

Ling Yan continued: "If they lie to me, of course there will be danger, but I don't think there will be much danger; But if they really surrender, it will be of great benefit to our army......" After a pause, he continued, "Just talking about Colonel Zuo's influence among the Yellow Turban Thieves, it should not be underestimated...... He is the 'Western God General', and he should have a pivotal position in the Yellow Turban Army, if he surrenders to us, then the subsequent crusade and siege will definitely get twice the result with half the effort! If we meet a city guard who is his lieutenant, then we can let him persuade him to surrender, if he can take the city without blood, wouldn't it be the best result? ”

You Heng thought for a moment, then nodded.

Ling Yan continued: "In addition to persuading us to surrender, Colonel Zuo can also offer us strategies to break the city, which is very helpful to us in terms of his strategy...... Besides, Colonel Zuo's martial arts are not bad. ”

You Heng paused for a long time before he said again: "Brother Xian, it's a good thing that you have this fierce general...... It's just that I'm worried about raising tigers......"

Ling Yan smiled and nodded: "Okay, I know, I'll be careful." ”

You Heng nodded reluctantly: "That's fine." ”

After the two chatted for a while, You Heng left.

After Ling Yan had eaten his fill, he felt sleepiness attacking, so he went to lie down and rest.

I don't know how long it took, and in a trance and half-asleep, Ling Yan suddenly heard someone calling him.

Ling Yan rubbed his eyes and looked towards the place where the voice came from: "Who?" ”

A voice behind the door said: "General Yan, the soldiers and horses of Sanzhai have arrived outside Juye City, please make a decision." ”

Ling Yan was overjoyed, immediately refreshed, hurriedly walked outside the door, and asked the soldiers standing outside the door, "All the soldiers and horses of the three camps have arrived?" ”

The soldier replied, "Yes." ”

Ling Yan was very happy, and hurriedly walked out of the house and walked towards the city gate.

When he arrived at the city gate, Ling Yan saw that the city gate was wide open, and outside the gate were Kuai Liang and the others and his thousands of soldiers.

Ling Yan hurriedly walked over and asked Kuai Liang with a smile, "General Kuai, everything is okay?" ”

Kuai Liang arched his hand and said, "There is no accident. But when we arrived here, I saw that the guards on the city were still Yellow Turban soldiers, and I just thought something was wrong, and the city gate was opened, but the guards would not let us in. ”

"Well," Ling Yan nodded, "I haven't had time to change the defenders yet...... Now that the city is in hand, there is no need to rush about other things. ”
