Chapter 451: The Death of the Two Islands (3)

Twin Islands, a small island located in the western harbor of the Lushunkou Peninsula, is slightly crescent-shaped. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the gentle mountain in the center of the island, there stands a huge cowhide tent, and tents are set up at the foot of the mountain not far from the north and south of the tent; To the north were Yuan Chonghuan and his entourage, with dense tents stretching from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside like mushrooms after rain, while on the south side there were only a few sparse tents, which were the temporary garrisons of Mao Wenlong and his 20 personal soldiers.

Before the sun set, a torch burning with black smoke had been planted inside and outside the cowhide tent; A round table is set up around the tent, and in the center of the table is a large dustpan with white steamed buns is particularly conspicuous, and around the dustpan are several large bowls, which are filled with large pieces of boiled beef, fish soup and thick pork belly; Sitting around the round table were the personal soldiers of Inspector Yuan and Mao Dashuai, eating meat and drinking a lot of wine, looking happy.

Compared with the rough man outside the tent, the food on the table of eight immortals in the tent is much more exquisite - West Lake vinegar fish, grilled sea cucumber, braised lion's head, ginger shrimp steak, Dongpo meat...... A table was set up full, and the wine was even better Shaoxing's daughter red, and the yellow amber poured in the cup was also like.

No matter how good the wine and food are, Mao Wenlong's mind is not on this at all, he hardly does not move his chopsticks, and he is also a little absent-minded about the persuasion of the three people in the tent - in addition to Inspector Yuan, there are also Wu Xiang and a staff member with the status of a senator in the governor's yamen to accompany him; With Wu Xiang, who has sharp teeth, he will never be cold, and the four-person cup is going back and forth, and the drunkenness in the tent is getting stronger and stronger.

This is already the third feast between Yuan and Mao - Yuan Chonghuan invited on the first day, and Mao Wenlong invited back on the second day, this is the third day, and I can't tell who invited whom, but after drinking so much wine, talking so much about nostalgia, wind and snow, poetry and songs, there is no word related to business.

Officialdom, pay attention to nothing serious under the feast, this Mao Wenlong understands - it is good to talk about things only when you are full of wine and food, whether it is okay or not, what kind of charter should be just a few words, as for the next day's big tent, it is just a routine.

Literati, pay attention to a calm bearing, the so-called "lupine scarf, talk and laugh, the canopy is gone", this Mao Wenlong also understands - what the literati want to express, they always have to go around the bend and show their words to make people think hard.

But now that the wine is enough, and the conversation has gone around to "Yan Ran Le Shi", Mao Wenlong can't figure out what kind of charter this Yuan Inspector in front of him is, which makes him a little anxious - he is still thinking about those potato seedlings on the Iron Mountain!

"Brother Zhennan, please drink this cup full," Mao Wenlong was a little distracted, but was pulled back by Yuan Chonghuan's official words with a thick Cantonese accent, "This cup should be congratulated by the Holy Son of Heaven!" …… Although you and I have different paths, we should do our part as ministers and work together to relieve the worries of the Sacred Heart! ”

Mao Wenlong subconsciously answered and drank it all, but he chuckled in his heart - the old fox finally couldn't hold it back and was about to start talking about business.

In the corner of his eye, the general soldier Wu Xiangwu, who had been gagging and trying his best to be funny, was also silent at the moment, staring at the empty cup and waiting for Yuan Chonghuan's next words.

"This second cup should be congratulated by Ling Tang!" Yuan Chonghuan waited for the soldiers behind him to pour a full amount of wine, and then he steadily picked up the cup and said with a smile, "Brother Zhennan is powerful at the border pass, and the Tartars are terrified, and the contribution of the education of the hall is really indispensable...... The so-called 'mother and son filial piety', Brother Zhennan is really a role model! ”

When Mao Wenlong heard him mention his mother, he hurriedly bowed slightly and said, "Don't dare!" Can't! The overlord is overrated! ”

After speaking, he covered his face with his sleeves and drank all the wine in the cup, but his brows were furrowed - Mao Wenlong didn't know what this wine tasted like, but the thought that was turning quickly in his heart was, what did this old fox want to say?

What is the "megatron border pass" Yunyun in front of is naturally unnutritious nonsense, the key is in this last sentence, "mother and son filial piety"? What is he implying for?

When he put down the wine glass and sat down, Mao Wenlong inadvertently noticed a detail, but it was that Wu Zongbing was stunned with the wine glass, and it was not until Yuan Chonghuan glanced at him very quickly that he drank it all.

Hey! This Wu Xiang seems to have understood Yuan Chonghuan's words, and he is really a famous person!

"This third cup should be Ling Zhenghe!" In the blink of an eye, Yuan Chonghuan picked up the cup again, and gestured to Mao Wenlong with a smile, "Brother Zhennan has been fighting the Dongjiang River for more than ten years, and the family is all in charge of Ling Zheng, and he is really amiable and respectable to take care of his in-laws and young son...... And the heart that is looking forward to the return of the beloved, can't you also sigh? (Crab note: Ling Zheng, is the wife of the other party)

Mao Wenlong seemed to have a flash of lightning in his mind - he finally understood what this Yuan Manzi wanted!

He wanted Mao Wenlong to relieve himself of military power, and obediently handed over Dongjiang Town, which he had founded and worked hard for many years!

"Mother's love and filial piety" is to imply that he should go home and be filial in front of his mother; "Looking forward to the return of the beloved" is a hint that he should go home to accompany his wife!

Grandma's Yuan Manzi is so shameless!

Mao Wenlong, who has heard, seen, and experienced many civilian attacks, suppressions, and divisions of military generals, really can't believe that the Yuan Inspector in front of him really dares to make such a shameless request! I didn't expect him to dare to deal with himself so simply and rudely! I didn't expect that Inspector Yuan, who had gone through the Huan Sea, would be so simple-minded!

What kind of person is he and Mao Wenlong, an empty general soldier with no soldiers and no generals?

In terms of grade, he is the chief soldier of Zhengyipin Town, and he is also the governor of the left capital of the festival! It is the crown prince of the first emperor Qinfeng!

In terms of strength, there are tens of thousands of Dongjiang elites behind him, and he controls more than 100,000 Liaodong refugees.

Self-dismissal? Joke!

Looking at Yuan Chonghuan's complacent appearance with his long beard in his hands on the other side, Mao Wenlong wanted to slam the wine glass in his hand on his face for a moment!

Wu Xiang on the side was also stunned, he had heard Yuan Chonghuan's voice just now, and now he was sweating for this reckless overseer - after all, he was Yuan Chonghuan's person, so he naturally had to consider things from Yuan Chonghuan's point of view.

In his opinion, Yuan Chonghuan's posture simply didn't want to solve the problem of Dongjiang Town - even if he was bargaining, he hadn't heard that he could offer such an outrageous price!

The clay man also has an earthy nature, Mao Wenlong is a dignified general soldier, and he can't stand this humiliation; Even if this lawsuit reaches the emperor, Yuan Chonghuan will probably not be able to please anything!

The atmosphere in the tent seemed to have condensed in an instant, and only Yuan Chonghuan's unhurried voice was still chattering.

"If what the main hall remembers is correct, Ling Tang and Ling Zheng are now living in Hangzhou...... Hangzhou, the famous city in the south of the Yangtze River is also ...... The spring dawn at Su Causeway and the evening bell at Nanping are all thought of and forgotten...... Looking for Fang Wulin Mountain, boating in the waves of the West Lake, it is really a great pleasure in life, and it is ......" (to be continued.) )
