Chen Ang had handed over the affairs of Donghai County and the Chen clan to his brother Chen Pre, and he was only the titular lord of the Chen clan and the governor of Donghai County. The Xiangfan Society used the matter of Donghai County to make Chen Zhuyi dissatisfied, but the Xiangfan Society allowed ordinary congregants to decide whether to stay in Donghai County on their own, and to a certain extent replenish the population lost by Donghai County due to the war, and with the strong support of Chen Ang, Zhang Zhongdao, Fang Su and others, this proposal was reluctantly passed.

Xu Ruyu asked the caravan to spread the news of his appearance in Shangnan Town, and Donghai County's fine work in Shangnan quickly transmitted the news back to Donghai County. Others may not know his intentions, but those who are familiar with him in Donghai County know that Xu Ruyu is sending a signal that he needs Donghai County's assistance in Shangnan. At this time, Yi Hanwen withdrew his troops from the south bank of Huaishui, and Zhang Jidao effortlessly seized nearly 100,000 square kilometers of land in the three cities of Tongyi, Bianyi, and Yixing on the south bank of Huaishui in Yixing Prefecture for the Chen people, and bordered Baishi, Jiangjin, and Qinghe in Yongning County. And the Zhang Dong relics, who are entrenched behind Qinghe and Jiangjin Mansion, Qianshan and Susong, contain a lot of strength in the Li family of Qinghe and the Yi family in Jiangjin.

At this time, there were two voices in Donghai County: a group headed by Chen Yu and Zhang Jidao believed that they would form an alliance with the Zhang Dong relics, so that Zhang Zun and Zhang Xuyang would lead the elite soldiers of the Zhang clan to contain the strength of the Li family and the Yi family in Qinghe Mansion and Jiangjin Mansion, and the elite soldiers of the East China Sea took this opportunity to send troops to take Baishi, Jiangjin, and Qinghe in one fell swoop; The faction headed by Fang Su and Zhang Zhongdao believed that the East China Sea had experienced a year of war and had not been effectively recuperated, and that if troops were sent to Baishi, Jiangjin, and Qinghe at the same time, it would definitely prompt the three families to form an alliance, so that the East China Sea would lose more than it would lose.

Chen Ang couldn't twist the will of the patriarchs in the clan, so he had to retreat and cultivate. The meeting was pre-made by Cheng Chen of Donghai County, and the participants were all important figures of the Chen clan in Donghai.

Zhang Jidao said: "Open up the Shangnan Trade Road, will only let Yongning County Qinghe, Jiangjin, Nanyang three provinces in one place, and the Shangnan Trade Road in my Donghai County is not obvious, if the army to take the Qinghe, my East China Sea will have three golden waterways, including the big river, Jinshui, Huaishui, its value is several times higher than the Shangnan Trade Road." ”

Zhang Zhongdao sat there angrily and looked at his own brother, and said, "What do you use to seize the Qing River, do you use the Great Yan Technique Array that Ru Yu taught you?" ”

Zhang Jidao's face was slightly red, he naturally heard Zhang Zhongdao ridiculing him for taking care of Xu Ruyu's kindness to him, how could he be at peace in his heart, but no one could stop the pace of expansion of the Chen clan, as the head of the clan, Chen Ang was also set up by his own brother, if he wanted to gain a foothold in this world, he would make himself strong enough, rather than pay attention to benevolence and righteousness. Zhang Jidao remembered the bleak situation of living on the street with his brother when he was a child, ruthlessly avoided Zhongdao's gaze, and said in a gloomy voice: "I in the East China Sea should not miss such a good opportunity, at this time, the Yi nationality in Qingzhou is in civil strife, the Xun family of Fen County joined the Qingzhou war, and the Huo family in Jinyang is a good opportunity for me to seize Yongning County in the East China Sea, how can I miss such a good opportunity because Xu Ruyu once contributed to my East China Sea?" ”

Zeng Yixing said: "Xu Ruyu is also true, my Chen clan Xu took the important position of the governor of Yongyang Mansion, he ignored it, and went to Shangnan to embarrass my Chen clan. ”

If it weren't for Xu Ruyu leading 600 elite cavalry to aid Qichuan in October last year and breaking through Baishi's 20,000 elite soldiers, the Qichuan City guarded by Zeng Yixing would have been wiped out long ago.

Zhang Zhongdao stood up suddenly, saluted Chen and said, "I don't have the qualifications to participate in such a meeting, so I ask to leave now." The words were still so unruly, and his eyes swept over the faces of Zhang Jidao, Zeng Yixing and others who had become extremely unfamiliar, and walked out of the venue without waiting for Chen to speak.

Although Fang Su, Zhang Zhongdao, Jiang Lingtian and others opposed this proposal, Chen Ang, who supported Xu Ruyu the most, was forced to retreat and practice, and if it were not for the hasty removal of Chen Ang's military power and regime would affect the stability of Donghai County, Chen Yu would have been appointed as the governor of Donghai County a long time ago. There was no suspense from the beginning to the end of the meeting, and Zhang Zhongdao angrily wrote a letter about the meeting from Liang Bao to Shangnan and handed it to Xu Ruyu.

Xu Ruyu read the letter calmly and said: "It is not different from what I imagined, I only ordered two hundred and sixty systems, and there are too many people, and it is not enough to divide them." As long as Yongyang is not involved in the war against Yongning, it seems that Donghai County will soon idle Zhongdao and Fang Su, I will write a letter to them, so that they have the opportunity to go to Yongyang, if Zhongdao can bring a thousand Qingfeng Jingqi into Yongyang, the military defense system of Yongyang Mansion will be much more complete. ”

Liang Bao said: "The generals of the Qingfeng Cavalry Battalion from Chen Jingzong to Chen Jingzong are all close to Mr., and they know that the Chen clan treats Mr. so unjustly, they are already very angry, and the Chen clan naturally does not dare to personally relieve General Zhongdao of military power, and it is very likely that a thousand elite phoenix cavalry and General Zhongdao will be sent to Yongyang together." ”

Xu Ruyu nodded and said: "Your analysis is reasonable, but things may not be so simple, Chen Jingzong and many other generals of the Qingfeng Cavalry Battalion are direct descendants of the Chen clan, even if Chen Pre sends the Qingfeng Elite Cavalry to Yongyang, these direct descendants will be transferred." It would be nice if that were the case. ”

"The situation in the East China Sea does not allow for the simultaneous use of troops against Qinghe, Jiangjin, and Baishi, why is Zhang Jidao so enthusiastic about this discussion, Liang Bao remembers that Mr. in Yongyang often praised Zhang Jidao for using troops, he shouldn't be unable to see the severity of the disease?"

Naturally, he didn't see it, but he saw it too clearly. As I expected, Zhang Jidao is about to take up the post of governor of Yixing Mansion. Yixing Mansion has experienced many wars, the family has withered, and Zhang Jidao's control of the military and political power of Yixing Mansion is convenient for him to cultivate his own power. At the same time, for the three family soldiers, the Yixing Mansion he led is the main direction of attack, and the Chen clan will give him more rights, and because the Yixing Mansion is the first to take the battle, the forces of the old family of Donghai County will be slow down when they enter the Yixing Mansion, which will be more convenient for him to expand his power. ”

"Oh, I see, after Mr. analysis, Liang Bao understood."

Xu Ru smiled foolishly: "It will be clearer to look at the problem outside the game." Oh, after I left Yongyang, they didn't stay. ”

When Xu Ruyu said this, he saw Youli glancing at him intentionally or unintentionally, and his beautiful black eyes were clearly saying: You obviously want to inquire about Shui Ruying's whereabouts.

Liang Bao heard Xu Ruyu ask about this, his face quickly darkened, and said: "The water girl wants to go to Lingnan, so her sleeves will naturally follow. Liang Bao doesn't think about it much, now he just hopes to follow Mr. to learn more skills and help him more. ”

Xu Ruyu looked at his face and didn't think too much, patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said: "I have you in my heart, you can stay by my side now with peace of mind, it's so lively outside, it must be the horse gang that sent the saber we wanted, let's go and see." ”

Xu Ruyu casually picked up a cold-light standard saber, looked at the smooth lines of the blade, and his heart was hot: Although the foundation of the temple did not stand up to support him, but just by this batch of high-grade standard sabers, it can be known that the foundation of the temple is on his side, but it is inconvenient to stand up and support it publicly.

Xu Tingyi said with a smile: "This time the foundation of the temple is a big gift, this batch of superb blades only costs 10,000 gold, this is the foundation of the foundation of the hall of Cai Yuhua Cai master, Ru Yu or you come to thank him in person." ”

Xu Ruyu waved the Dan breath into the blade of the knife, and pulled a knife flower at will, the knife shape was slow, but there was a hissing sound in the air, like a tongue of fire licking the air, Xu Ji and Cai Yuhua looked at each other, and thought: The more urgent the knife, the more intense the wind, and this kind of flame noise, the knife is already fast to the extreme, if you try your best, it is not difficult to do, but at that time, it should be everywhere in the air, and the sword light is like a match, so it is in line with the common sense of martial arts. Now seeing Xu Ruyu's unreasonable slow slash, but there is a sound that can only be found at extreme speed, and both of them have a strange feeling in their hearts.

Xu Ruyu's knife hung down, handed it to Liang Bao beside him, and said to Cai Yuhua: "There is Lao Cai's family who personally sent it, please use tea in the house." ”

Cai Yuhua is a lean middle-aged man, but there is no fine line at the corner of his eyes, Xu Ruyu thought to himself: He may rarely smile.

Cai Yuhua was not angry at all by Xu Ruyu's sluggishness, and looked at Xu Ruyu's eyes calmly as water and said: "The main hall knows that this batch of knives was ordered by General Qingfeng, so he lightly selected six hundred high-quality sabers to be forged with cold iron, in order to be able to send these knives to General Qingfeng before the meeting of the Fu, Xun, and Huo families, Cai Fengrao led the four hundred best craftsmen in the hall to rush for nine days and nine nights, and finally successfully forged two hundred high-grade standard sabers among the six hundred sabers, hoping that General Qingfeng would be satisfied." ”

People who knew the relationship between Xu Ruyu and the Cai family, such as Jiang Youli and uncle Fang Wu, were naturally not surprised when they heard this, but Liang Bao, Jimo Mingxi, Wei Yu and others were dumbfounded. Wei Yan shouted: "Good, good, Mr. is really big enough, it seems that the old lieutenant is following Mr. right......" wanted to say more, but gave Jimo Mingxi a vicious glare, only then did he see Xu Ruyu's depressed face, and stood behind the tall Wei Yu nervously, hoping that others could ignore his existence.

Xu Ruyu sighed: "Admit it, Cai Dangjia please go to the quiet room to talk." With that, he walked straight back to the house.

Xu Ruyu turned to face Cai Yuhua, and said quietly: "If Cai Dangjia has anything to say, please tell me." ”

"The prince came to Shangnan, and he just wanted to see General Shangqingfeng."

Xu Ruyu was shocked, and stared at Cai Yuhua's face in disbelief, hoping to see him talking about panic and deceiving himself. But Cai Yuhua's eyes were so calm, although his expression was a little nervous, Xu Ruyu knew that he was not nervous about anything else, but thought of the terrible consequences of this news leaking out.

Either he is too good at talking panic, or Cai Yi, the king of Beijing County, really came to Shangnan Town secretly just to see him. At that time, Chen Ang told Xu Ruyu on the shore of Bashui that the Cai family strongly opposed the affairs of his parents, and only this uncle supported it. Xu Ru stood there dumbfounded, silent.

"The prince hopes that General Qingfeng will lead Miss Jiang to go, and the prince can only stay in Shangnan for one night."

"I know, I'll go late at night, please go back to Dang Cai."

Because Jimo Ming brought more than 200 people who needed to learn to ride in battle, they set up camp next to the horse gang camp in the open space north of the town. The horse gang not only sent 260 fine war horses, but also sent 30 miscellaneous servants for Xu Ruyu to drive. There are horses in the camp to help everyone Zhang Luo, and there is no need for Xu Ruyu and others to worry about it. When Xu Ruyu walked into the camp with Youli at dusk, he saw that everything was arranged in an orderly manner, and all of them were set up in strict accordance with the military camp, and the watchtower towers at the four corners and the camp gate were also erected high.

Liang Bao and Jimo Mingxi led everyone to walk their horses on the school field, familiar with the surname of the war horse they were riding, the situation in Shangnan was delicate, and no one dared to conclude that Ming Yue would not break out to kill, so that people and the war horse would be harmonious as soon as possible, which should be the first priority. But Xu Ruyu was able to make the most elite foot soldiers change to riding warfare at this time, and his courage was extraordinary. Fortunately, the soldiers of the Puji Biaofeng Battalion had been accustomed to cavalry warfare, but there was a shortage of war horses on Puji Island, so there was no cavalry establishment.

Xu Ruyu said: "Boying's arrangement is really proper, except for the camp is a little bigger, I can't find fault." ”

Xu Bo Ying's face flushed, and he looked at Liu Tingshan on the side awkwardly, hoping that he could come out and say something.

Xu Ru smiled foolishly: "The camp is too big, why don't Bo Ying also bring two hundred Ma Gang disciples to be stationed in?" ”

Xu Ji, who had been nervous for a long time, was overjoyed when he heard this: "I'm tired and stupid, I don't know if these two hundred disciples are practicing foot combat or riding battle?" ”

Xu Ruyu said: "Foot combat is the foundation of cavalry warfare, and the effect of infantry combat is obvious in the short term. Liang Bao has been following me for a year, so let him cooperate with Bo Ying to practice foot combat. ”

Xu Ji hurriedly asked Xu Boying and Xu Duanguo to order 200 Mabang children to be stationed in the camp, as if he was afraid that Xu Ruyu would regret it. Xu Ruyu knew that the children of the horse gang should have practiced foot combat, and it was a short-cut array, when Liang Bao followed him to defend the city in Yongyang, the thick-backed knife practiced in the reserve battalion was also a short blade, and Liang Bao now practiced the short-bladed array is more than enough, and there is no need for Xu Ruyu to follow him for guidance.

Xu Ruyu asked Jimo Mingxi to gather the people, turned over and stepped on a war horse, and slowly galloped in front of everyone. The most elite pirates in Puji for the rest of their lives after the war, hundreds of people turned their eyes to Xu Ruyu.

Jiang Youli, Jue'er, Liang Bao, Xu Ji and others could also feel the dignified and domineering momentum like a mountain when they stood far away, and the strength was filled with a beast-like and dangerous aura, which made people suddenly have the idea of fleeing. What kind of army is this, why are they gathered there, it makes people feel so uncomfortable.

Youli calmed down the qi and blood that was almost retrograde, and looked at Xu Ruyu's slightly thin figure worriedly, she knew that if this army in the world could really be called the army of the tiger and wolf, the army in front of her was, these two hundred and forty-nine soldiers were all prisoners of war from the most elite combat power of the Puji bandits, Biaofeng Battalion, they slaughtered countless people, after thousands of catastrophes, their combat power was extraordinary, but they were also fierce, just like a violent beast, and Xu Ruyu was going to control this beast himself.

Xu Ruyu's mind was clear, and what he saw in his knowledge was not the fierce flames in the eyes of these people, but the souls that struggled, unyielding, and howled.

Jimo Mingxi, Wei Yu, Wei Yan, and Liang Bao slowly followed behind Xu Ruyu, how familiar this strong and fierce aura was, reminiscent of blood, Jimo Mingxi entered the front of the queue, and the blood burned violently, and involuntarily expanded the momentum, revealing a cold and ruthless fierce flame in his eyes. Wei Yu and Wei Yan couldn't help but release the sinister aura hidden in their bodies.

Liang Bao and Xu Ruyu were in the center of the sinister aura, only to feel that the evil feeling in their hearts was there, their arms were bent and extended, and they changed several postures in a row, but they still failed to expel the evil feeling in their hearts. Liang Bao didn't know why Xu Ruyu didn't give a helping hand, the vision in front of him gradually blurred, and at the moment when he was about to lose consciousness, a breath of peace and vitality came from Xu Ruyu's body, and the bad feeling that pressed on his heart was like being quickly dissipated by Tang Wo's snow. Liang Bao saw Xu Ruyu cast a glance full of approval.

The breath of life ripples like water rippling layer by layer, everyone present can feel the breath of vitality, that is, Mo Mingxi feels that the breath of vitality ripples layer by layer, and I want to extinguish the flame burning in my heart, that is the fire of my will, how can I let others destroy it? Jimo Ming Xi strongly urged the essence of the Yuan Dan Xi, his Dan Xi technique has reached the realm of practicing the refinement of the gods, the Dan Xi rotates through the back of the head mud pills, and is born like the power of "God" to maintain the flame burning in the heart. But the breath of that ** is so vast, endless, endless, it is difficult for people to give birth to a strong will to resist, no, how can you give up so easily, that is, Mo Mingxi opened his mouth and roared out, and when he was about to try his best to fight the final blow, a soft shout exploded in his ears like thunder: "Do you still think you are a killing instrument?" ”

Jimo Mingxi suddenly opened his eyes, but in the eyes in front of him, he saw that the flame in his heart had not been extinguished, and it was burning more and more in that ** breath. Jimo Mingxi struggled to the ground and said loudly: "Thank you, Mr. for letting Mingxi find him." Ming Xi is willing to follow Mr. to the death. ”

Two hundred and forty-eight people dismounted from their horses and fell to the ground, exclaiming, "Swear to follow Mr. to the death." ”

Jimo Mingxi exclaimed: "Please give me a name." ”

Although Xu Ruyu's voice was soft, it clearly fell into everyone's ears: "You have already passed yesterday, I see your unyielding struggling soul from your burning eyes, and the unyielding struggling soul is the cyan flame, so you can call the Green Flame Army." ”

Jimo Mingxi waved his palm as a blade, cut off the placket of the white robe, and Wei Yu, Wei Yan, and Liang Bao each held a corner, and displayed it in front of Xu Ruyu, and shouted: "Please give the flag to Mr." ”

Xu Ruyu flicked his fingers, the index finger and middle finger of his right hand broke in response, and the blood overflowed like a pill, and Xu Ruyu pointed to the two ancient seals of "Qingyan" written on the flag. Jimo Mingxi displayed the battle flag in front of the army, and more than 200 people roared, echoing like a sad song.
