Ye Yingwu was still a little sleepy-eyed when he saw Li Si. It wasn't actually night yet. The clouds that had been hanging over the dome for a day were finally slowly dissipating. The sunset is obliquely shining, and the distant and near waters are shrouded in a layer of charming colors.

Looking at this young man who hadn't taken off his soft armor yawning, with an unconcealable tiredness between his eyebrows, Li Si, who was standing quietly in the study, couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart. This brilliant Song Dynasty, the mighty sky, and the one who finally supported its sky and guarded a party Li Shu turned out to be just a weak-crowned young man.

Is this Da Song really no one outstanding, or does this young man really have the ability to turn over the clouds and rain?

Ye Yingwu also looked at the two people in the study with some curiosity. Li Si is still the same ordinary gray robe as he was when he first saw him, and this dress is worn on his body, which makes Li Si, who already looks "out of the crowd", more low-key, and no one can imagine that even some down-and-out and poor scholars are heroes in the East China Sea.

And the strong man standing behind Li Si didn't hide his strength at all, although his saber had been collected by the guards outside the door, so he stood there with empty hands, looking a little embarrassed and overwhelmed, but all this could not stop the majestic aura emanating from this strong man. It was as if the angry waves of the East China Sea were following him, and as long as the strong man moved, it would cause the tide to be overwhelming.

couldn't help but sigh in his heart and admire twice, Ye Yingwu stood up while ordering to look at the tea,

Seeing him like this, Li Si hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Li Si, a person at the end of the East China Sea, has seen Ye Zhijun. ”

Li Si has already put on such a posture, Bai Nutao is naturally relying on the gourd to draw a scoop, don't look at him is very heroic, but his heart is not just rushing to kill, otherwise he will not be impressed by Li Si, and he is also an arch at the moment: "Bai Nutao, a person at the end of the East China Sea, has seen Ye Zhijun." ”

The guest had already spoken, and the host was not allowed to answer, Ye Yingwu immediately said loudly: "Two, a certain Ye Yingwu, I am fortunate to be happy!" Tea has been served, and two people are invited to take a seat. The kid is not sensitive, taking on such a heavy responsibility, if the two of them don't dislike it, just call it 'make the king' or the kid's name 'Yuanlie'. ”

"Then thank you Ye Yuanjun." Li Si hurriedly changed his words, but there were dark waves in his heart. Don't look at him far away in Dongji Island in the East China Sea, before coming to Xing**, he has already explored Ye Yingwu's various things clearly, and the title of "Envoy" is only qualified by the civil and military soldiers of the Tianwu Army, to show that he is Ye Yingwu's descendant of the old subordinate, and he has a bloody friendship with this young and promising Xing** Zhijun.

Gradually, although this title has also expanded a little, the scope has never exceeded Ye Yingwu's cronies, so there is an unwritten rule in Tianwu Jun and Xing**, those who can be qualified to call "envoys" are the confidants who can be entrusted with important tasks, so many people work hard, just to earn a meritorious career, and then they can also call the weak-crowned young man in front of them "envoys" in front of their peers.

And now Ye Yingwu casually asked them to call them "envoys", which is a great love, but Ye Yingwu came up and gave favors, what kind of calculation did he make? Li Si secretly figured out in his heart, he didn't know that these twists and turns of Bai Nutao just pouted, thinking that this young man was really strange, obviously he was already in the high position of "Xing ** Zhi Jun" and "Tianwu Army Commander of the Four Compartments", but he always made people call himself the title of "Envoy" that evolved from the "Xing ** Regiment Training Envoy", which is strange and strange.

At the moment when the three of them were testing each other and even making eye contact, the huge wooden map in Ye Yingwu's study was also removed by the guards from the dust cloth. Ye Yingwu nodded slightly, and sighed at Li and said: "Brother Li, since the East China Sea, I don't know that it has been two months, Brother Li did not hesitate to come lightly when he saw the letter, firstly, he kept his promise as before, and secondly, he also trusted the younger brother very much, and the junior brother was inexplicably grateful for this. ”

Li Si saw that Ye Yingwu was not sitting, so he naturally sat on pins and needles, so he simply stood up: "The title of 'Brother Li' can never be afforded, although a certain idiot is a few years older, but compared to Ye Yuanjun's merits, this brother is absolutely unaffordable, if Ye Zhijun does not dislike it, he can call the word 'long regret'." A certain white brother, born in the angry waves of the East China Sea, has no words, so that you can directly call 'angry waves'. ”

Do you regret it for a long time? Ye Yingwu muttered, there is really no such person in the history books of the Southern Song Dynasty that he is familiar with, but the people have their own talents, and it is not impossible for one or two people to emerge in this troubled era that they have changed a lot. But this name also has some meaning, sigh for the eternal characters, how can you not regret it for a long time?

Ye Yingwu looked at Li Si quietly, this Li Si, just judging from the name and words, is also a person with a big heart, but I don't know if he has the ability to manipulate people's hearts, so that he can use it for himself?

"That's a pity!" Ye Yingwu no longer hesitated, and smiled heartily, but the word "brother" still hasn't been removed, "Come on, brother Changxi, brother Nutao, although the journey is hard, please forgive the little brother for not having so much free time, so I can only take advantage of this dusk light to talk about the little brother's plans." If the two of you don't dislike it, after we finish talking about this situation, we will have a banquet for the moon in the small pavilion outside the study, I don't know what the two of you think? ”

Knowing that he should come secretly this time, after all, he can't let people, especially Jia Xianggong in the court, know that Ye Yingwu is colluded with the East China Sea Kou, so it is naturally impossible for Ye Yingwu to invite a group of civil and military personnel from the Tianwu Army to the banquet and set up a banquet in the pavilion, and Ye Yingwu personally accompanies him, which is already unexpected.

It's just that what I care about now shouldn't be the banquet, but the Mutu in front of Ye Yingwu, who doesn't seem to take the strong enemy from the north in his eyes, has been looking at the southeasternmost corner of the entire Mutu. It was not until this time that Li Si and Bai Nutao discovered that the huge wooden map in front of Ye Yingwu was not only the state capitals around Xing**, but also north to the Bianliang area, to the west of Dongchuan, and to the east, it was over Qingyuan Mansion, but these are not very noticeable, what really shocked Li Si and Bai Nutao was that this wooden map has extended to the south and southeast to the islands across the sea from Fujian, as well as Qiongzhou and other places in the Great Song Dynasty.

Li Si was secretly shocked in his heart, and he didn't know how the "Penghu Island" and "Visheye" Island (called by the Song Dynasty in Taiwan) attracted the attention of this golden scale entrenched in the small pool of Xing**. Although those islands are not small, no one has really paid attention to them in the past dynasties, after all, they are barbaric and uncivilized places, and there is no need to pour a lot of manpower and material resources into them.

"Visheya, how much does Brother Elder Know about it?" Ye Yingwu asked lightly, as if the island on the vast smoke and waves thousands of miles away had been firmly grasped by him.

Carefully looking at Ye Yingwu's huge wooden drawing, Li Si took a few steps forward, then slowly stretched out his hand to touch the smooth surface of the wooden drawing, and finally found a concave point on the smooth wooden board that symbolized the vicissitudes of the East China Sea, and then said with a sigh of relief: "Envoy Qi, there are hundreds of sons and seven or eight sea ships under the command of a certain man, and they are here, Dongji Island. ”

Ye Yingwu of Dongji Island knows that it is the small island on the sea to the east of Putuo Mountain seven hundred years later, and it has been a place where pirates have been entrenched since ancient times.

But now there is no time to think about it, Ye Yingwu nodded slightly, and motioned for Li Si to continue. Li Si's hand swept across the smooth plank, all the way to the island in the southeast corner, which was very vague and did not have a complete outline: "And here, is Visheye, how big is this island, not to mention the imperial court, even if there is a certain and Brother Nu Tao, who are often at sea, they don't know, after all, the two sides know too little." On the contrary, between Nabisheye and Fujian, there are several islands, called 'Penghu', which are already under the jurisdiction of Quanzhou ** County, Fujian, and there are still a small number of soldiers and people on the island, but they are not worth mentioning at all. ”

It is estimated that there is only so much understanding of Taiwan and Penghu in this era, Ye Yingwu just nodded quietly. Li Si was slightly shocked in his heart, and he couldn't figure out what this Ye Envoy Jun meant, so he simply asked tentatively:

"I wonder why the envoy suddenly inquired about Visheya?"

Ye Yingwu's cheeks were a little red against the background of the candle flames, as if there were all kinds of fire and blood in his heart that wanted to gush out, and after a long time, Li Si and Bai Nutao heard this young Ye Yuanjun say in a very light but unshakable voice:

"Because, the flag of the Tianwu Army will be planted on that island."

Li Si and Bai Nutao were dumbfounded.

Na Visheye, it's too far away from this Xing**, I don't know why this Ye Envoy Jun paid attention there. However, I have to say that the closest thing that Ye Yingwu can master is the closest to the uncivilized Visheye Island, that is, these sea ships under Li Si's hands. However, Li Si once expressed his intention to surrender, and this Ye Yingwu really regarded him as his subordinate, I don't know if he really saw through Li Si with confidence, or if he was too rampant, thinking that he had firmly grasped this tyrant in the East China Sea.

Subconsciously looked at Ye Yingwu, from those eyes Li Si did not get the news he wanted, Ye Yingwu this person, from the first time they met outside the Qingyuan Mansion at that time, until now, Li Si had to say that he had not seen through this person. Is this a tyrant in troubled times, or a fool who has always been lucky?

It's just that I don't know how he took a fancy to the lonely island of Visheyeh, which was hung overseas and no one cared about, so he called Li Si to Xing** thousands of miles away and ordered him to explain in person.

Well?! Li Si suddenly felt a shock in his heart, what was he thinking in his heart just now, hanging alone? seems to understand what Ye Yingwu wants, what Ye Yingwu needs is this lonely overseas. It's just that now Li Si can't figure it out, does Ye Yingwu want to find a foothold for himself overseas, or does he want to find a place of refuge for the Great Song Dynasty?

Could it be that the war between the north and the south has been eroded to such an extent? If it was the first one, as some people who had taken refuge in Ye Yingwu, Li Si didn't mind taking this deserted Visheye Island as a vote for Ye Yingwu; And if it is the second one, he Li Si will not be able to accompany him, you must know that he is loyal to the mountains and rivers of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the clothes of Huaxia, not the weak Song who kneels everywhere and begs for mercy, and even the royal orthodoxy hates to have to!

Ye Yingwu glanced at Li Si thoughtfully, and immediately understood what this scholar hero, who was powerless but could command the heroes in the East China Sea, hesitated in his heart, and couldn't help but blame himself twice, just now he was negligent and didn't make his purpose clear like Li Si, so it seems that this Li Si is not a person who is too scheming, or he really has the heart to take refuge, otherwise a person who seems to be an enemy and a friend suddenly asks you to cross the sea to conquer a deserted island, and anyone will subconsciously refuse.

At that moment, Ye Yingwu stretched out his hand and knocked on the wooden board on the side of Li Si's hand that had not been taken down, and said lightly: "Tianwu Army, it can't be just a land powerhouse, and it can't be only this Xing** that doesn't have a village in front of the village and a store as a foothold." ”

As soon as these words came out, whether it was the shrewd and rigorous Li Si or the smug Bai Nutao, they were all shocked in their hearts, and they suddenly became clear. Ye Yingwu is arranging a back road for the Tianwu army, if the Southern Song Dynasty is really defeated in the onslaught of the Mongolian iron cavalry, then Bisheye Island, which no one has ever paid attention to, is a retreat that cannot be ignored, or even the last retreat.

At that time, whether it is Ye Yingwu separating one side and transcending the world, or embracing the Song family to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, it will be a good choice. But in any case, seeing Ye Yingwu today, Li Si and Bai Nutao already knew in their hearts that this person would definitely not be a die-hard character like Yue Wumu, if it was to be described, it would be more appropriate for these two people.

In the eyes of Li Si and Bai Nutao, if Ye Yingwu wants to divide one side or even call the king and emperor at that time, then they are from the dragon's work! And even if he coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes like Cao Cao, he still did the work of the tiger! The clouds are from the dragon, the wind is from the tiger, and it is the best choice to find this kind of budding hero in the troubled times.

Although it is risky to follow under Ye Yingwu, after all, everything is risky, not to mention that Ye Yingwu is guarded by Jiang Wanli, Ye Mengding and other old foxes, even if it is a big risk, it is not related to life. Li Si and Bai Nutao were originally the pirates of the East China Sea, and they were engaged in a business without capital, which was the most risky in this world.

So when they made up their minds, instead of worry and fear, the two of them were full of hope and expectation for their future.

Li Si lifted his robe without hesitation and knelt on one knee, and Bai Nutao behind him naturally no longer hesitated and followed. Li Si hugged his fists at Ye Yingwu and said: "Enlighten the envoy, the East China Sea Dongji Island Erlang obeys the order, the sword mountain and the sea of fire, do not give up!" ”

Seeing that Li Si showed his desire to take refuge, and the sincerity on his face didn't want to be faked, Ye Yingwu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly strode forward to help the two of them up. However, despite this, Ye Yingwu will not really let Li Si and Bai Nutao attack Taiwan Island alone, otherwise Taiwan Island will be defeated, if Li Si changes his heart, wouldn't he have made wedding clothes for others.

According to Ye Yingwu's plan, the Tianwu Army will send 500 elite soldiers to the Tianwu Army under the leadership of Zhang Gui, the commander of the Tianwu Army, and Wang Da, the Marquis of Yu, the capital of the Tianwu Army, to go to Visheye, but these 500 soldiers are naturally secretly transferred. The rear of the Tianwu army commanded Zhang Gui to be bold and careful, which can be seen from the fact that he and his younger brother were able to break through the encirclement and enter Xiangyang in the official history, and as Zhang Gui's deputy, Wang Dalai defended Yangluo Fort after the fall of Xiangyang in the official history, and once blocked the Boyan soldiers, and was a young general who could be entrusted to garrison on one side.

Wang Da was originally a talented person, so when Ye Mengding and others recruited talents from all over Jiangnan West Road, he stood out and entered the Tianwu Army as the head of the capital, and later emerged in training, so he was naturally promoted by Ye Yingwu, who had been paying attention to him. Wang Da is naturally grateful for this.

Of course, Ye Yingwu will not be stupid and only send land foot soldiers, Zhang Shijie came to Xing** last time There is also a secret purpose, that is, to discuss with Ye Yingwu the ownership of the water division detachment that is now moored in the net lake, and finally this small fleet will be assigned to Ye Yingwu's Tianwu Army, but this is only small in name, in fact, there are two large sea ships of five hundred materials in this fleet, and there are five or six medium-sized warships, and there is naturally no main building ship that is not suitable for naval warfare.

And this naval division will carry 500 soldiers to the southeast, as for the big river, in fact, after crossing the Poyang Lake, it is the actual territory of the two Huai water divisions in an instant, but now because the two Huai water divisions are transferred to the west, there are no naval division warships stationed at all, so there is no need to worry about being discovered and intercepted. As for commanding this water division, Zhang Gui is a very good choice.

Of course, these Ye Yingwu still seem to have some fly in the ointment, so the big net that the six doors had just opened all over Jiangnan and Fujian began to operate rapidly, trying to wipe out all traces of this matter.

Hearing Ye Yingwu talk about the many things that had been arranged, Li Si couldn't help but have beads of sweat on his forehead, he originally thought that he had countless sons and daughters, and he was proficient in water warfare, and he would definitely be Ye Yingwu's indispensable reliance, but he didn't expect that even without his own people, Ye Yingwu still regarded Na Visheye Island as a thing in his pocket!

This son is extraordinary! Walking out of the study with Ye Yingwu, Li Si was still a little confused in his heart, and he couldn't help but shiver until the night breeze blew.

When it came, it was still sunset, and now the stars are hanging upside down.

I don't know if it's late.
