Chapter XIII: Military and Political Conference (II)

When everyone heard that Shen Deqian was also going to introduce someone to Yongyang's rebuilding of the water camp, they all thought: It has become a dispute between these two families. Seeing that Jiang Lingtian and Mei Tierui in the hall had their faces as usual, they seemed not to be afraid of Shen and Xu to make any waves.

Xu Daofu looked at Shen Deqian with a soft gaze, in his mind, the reason why Jiang Lingtian and Mei Tierui remained silent was that they were afraid to make up their minds and let Shen Deqian and him check and balance each other, so as to disperse the power of the water camp and ensure that the Xu faction forces dominated the political situation in Yongyang, and maybe other people would jump out to share the control of the water camp.

Xu Daofu's gaze quickly swept over everyone, returned to Shen Deqian's face, and said, "I don't know who Shen Changshi is going to recommend?" ”

Shen Deqian said: "Who do you think it is? After that, he turned his head and looked at Jiang Lingtian, the meaning of inquiry in his eyes was clear at a glance.

Xu Daofu saw Jiang Lingtian nodding in agreement without hesitation, and suddenly understood that there was already a tacit understanding between them, and an ominous feeling rose in his heart. Thinking of the promise made to him by the Xun family and the Chen family, his mind was slightly relaxed, and he stretched out his head to look out of the door, only to see Shen Deqian and Mei Liting walking side by side, covering the face of the person behind him, only his green shirt and body, with an ordinary waist knife hanging from his waist, the three of them walked straight to the hall, and passed in front of the door official, but they did not mean to untie the waist knife.

Although this is not the political hall in the middle of the official city, Jiang Lingtian has been handling official affairs here, so he has the surname of the political hall.

In addition to the halberd Jingwei, when entering the political hall, they all need to untie their blades, and everyone saw that the official and the halberd Jingwei in front of the door not only did not shout and scold, but also showed a stunned look, their hearts were tight, and their hearts were in their throats.

Xu Daofu subconsciously turned his head, but saw Jiang Lingtian, Mei Tierui, Zhang Zhongdao, Shen Binglu and others standing up together, and felt bad, but he heard the uproar in the hall, turned his head and saw Shen Deqian and Mei Liting standing on both sides, Xu Ruyu calmly raised his feet and stepped over the threshold of the dark ironwood, and his calm eyes seemed to look at himself and look elsewhere.

Xu Dao stood there in despair, the blood on his face instantly faded, leaving only a mixture of horror. Although Xiao Bieli, who was standing beside him, had never met Xu Ruyu, he could quickly guess what was happening from everyone's reactions.

At this time, Zhang Zhongdao, Xing Kunmin, and Shen Bingxu quietly moved behind him, so that he didn't dare to move a little, so he had to stand there and watch how the situation developed.

Xu Ruyu paused slightly, took in everyone's reactions, smiled slightly, turned his head sideways to Shen Deqian and said, "Yongyang people don't seem to welcome me. ”

The crowd stood up and rushed forward.

It's just that Xu Ruyu has already resigned from the position of lieutenant, and it is inconvenient to call him by his name, everyone is speechless, and the hall is still silent.

Jiang Lingtian said loudly: "It is a great honor for us to come back to Yongyang. After that, he lined up everyone, led Xu Ruyu to the front of the hall, and then retreated to the next head to stand still, untied the sword at his waist, and handed it to the halberd Jingwei on the side to take out of the hall, so as to show that he was no longer the first person in Yongyang.

Everyone woke up from a dream and shouted in unison: "The last general will see the captain." ”

Xu Dao was like thunder and lightning in an instant, and understood everything, Shen Deqian attached himself to Xu Ruyu, so that Xu Ruyu completely controlled the situation in Yongyang, and only waited for the Yongyang military and political meeting to regain control of Yongyang.

Xu Ruyu returned to Yongyang, choosing when the Puji bandits were very likely to re-invade Yongyang, on the eve of the storm, which side of the nearly two million people in Yongyang stood on, it is self-evident, who can fight against the trend at such a time?

Xu Ruyu's current strength is really not something that other forces can directly interfere with.

Xu Daofu's mind was suddenly empty like a spasm, and he just stood there in a daze, watching others sing and take turns on stage.

Xu Ruyu lifted his robe slightly, sat down on his knees, looked around left and right, and said, "You may as well sit down and discuss something." Looking at Xiao Beili, who was secretly on guard, he said: "Head Xiao, above the river, I failed to report my name, and I hope you will forgive me." ”

Xiao Beili was full of surprise, and said in an astringent voice: "Then it's you?" His face was like ashes, and he said: "You have already made peace with the Changhe Gang, why do you still want to lure me in?" By saying this, he has admitted the reality that he is completely at a disadvantage.

Xu Ruyu smiled: "I and the inner room have been floating on the river for more than ten days in a fishing boat, and it is said that it is raining heavily on the river, and the wind and waves are urgent. ”

Only then did everyone understand that Xu Ruyu had left Qingjiang and had been boating on the river for ten months, but he was just planning to find the best time to appear in Yongyang, so that Yongyang's opposition to him was powerless to resist, and they each remembered their own performance in the past month, although there was no major disobedience, they still couldn't help but ooze cold sweat. With Shao Haitang's help, Xu Ruyu acted more mature and decisive.

Xiao Bei was shocked that Xu Ruyu's cultivation was so strong, plus Jiang Lingtian, Zhang Zhongdao, Mei Tierui and others, who were not much weaker than themselves, really didn't get out of it and grasped it, but looking at the performance of everyone in the hall, maybe they would rush up without waiting for Xu Ruyu to speak out. Thinking about it like this, he calmly came down, pulled the corner of Xu Daofu's clothes in a trance, and said to Xu Ruyu: "I, Donglin Society, want to contribute to Yongyang's rejection of Puji banditry, I don't know what Lord Duwei thinks?" "I looked around, but I seemed to be looking for my seat.

Xu Daofu gave him a tug, and he also came back to his senses, saluted Xu Ruyu and said: "Du Wei can personally Yongyang, Daofu doesn't need to worry so much, and he doesn't need to sleep and eat tastelessly." ”

Xu Ruyu smiled and said: "Xiao Hui's first thoughts, why can't you notice it?" Please sit down and talk. It's just that this smile may not be a little cold, and the tone reveals a majesty that cannot be refuted by others. When Xu Ruyu entered the door, his momentum was suppressed by him, and Xiao Bieli reluctantly retreated.

Zhang Zhongdao moved down a seat and set Xiao Bieli's seat between himself and Jiang Lingtian, although it was not in accordance with the etiquette system, everyone understood that Zhang Zhongdao's move was to prevent Xiao Bieli from suddenly becoming troubled.

Everyone sat down, Jiang Lingtian took the inky Xuantie square seal from Mei Tierui's hand, stepped forward, held it with both hands, and said: "Ling Tiancai is not prepared, but he has been acting as the commander of Yongyang for two years, he has no merit and no virtue, and he is worthy of the people of Yongyang. ”

Xu Ruyu should take the seal of the Yongyang Duwei who represents the supreme power of Yongyang, and put it on the case at will.

Next, Mei Tierui stepped forward and said: "Tie Rui steals the position of the palm print for a long time, I am sincerely afraid, I resign from my position today, I hope that the captain can arrange where Tie Rui's duty is, and try his best to seek welfare for the people of Yongyang." After that, the Mingguang steel seal representing the long history of the palm print was presented to Xu Ruyu.

Next, Xing Kunmin replaced Chen Zifang to hand over the seal of Yongyang Mansion.

Next is Shen Deqian's cross-seal.

Zhang Zhongdao, Mei Liting, Shen Yi, Xing Kunmin and others also handed over the talismans.

Xu Daofu saw that everyone was looking at him, and thought: Nancheng is a soldier of my Xu family, although there is no soldier talisman, it is just a slight inconvenience, I think about it, I will also hand over the talisman. Zhang Shimu then handed over the talisman.

Next, it was the turn of the guards of Siyi, Jiang Lingtian handed over the city seal and military talisman of Suyi, and everyone stopped at the faces of Zhong Ji, Wan Rong, and Gong Hao.

The three of them are not in their respective defense areas, and with Xu Ruyu's prestige and ability, it is not difficult to transfer the men and horses of each department to take over the three cities with the city seals and military talismans of the three cities.

Wan Rong stepped forward, took out the city order and military talisman from his arms, looked at it reluctantly, and then said ruthlessly: "It's paid." With that, he handed the city order and the talisman to Xu Ruyu, and returned to his seat silently.

Zhong Ji and Gong Hao looked at each other, hesitated for a long time, and then showed a look of resignation, and handed over the city seal and the military talisman.

After the seal was handed over, Xu Ruyu looked at the seals piled up with emotion, and sighed secretly: Is this Yongyang's ownership? Looking at Jiang Lingtian, there was a trace of confusion in his heart, and he was stunned for a moment before he said in a loud voice: "The seal is handed over to the political affairs hall, and it is guarded by Jiang Lingtian, Mei Tierui, and Shen Deqian. ”

There are those who are shocked, they have long expected this, and there are those who are indifferent, but they all know that this situation will not last long, otherwise the Yongyang political system will collapse, and in the near future, the power of Yongyang will undergo earth-shaking changes, but I don't know who loses and who increases.

Jiang Lingtian, Mei Tierui, and Shen Deqian are temporarily in power together, and their position in the future should not be shaken, and seven or eight out of ten of the officials and generals present are from the three people, so they are naturally not in a hurry.

After everyone's expressions calmed down for a while, Xu Ruyu looked at Xiao Bieli and said: "It is imperative for Yongyang to rebuild the water camp, and I also heard the discussion of the princes outside the hall, but I don't know what the head of Xiao will think?" ”

Xiao Beili saw that Xu Ruyu was in charge of Yongyang's power like a river, and no one dared to disobey, thinking that although his power was just stable, but his subordinates were gathered together, no one could stop him from rising to the southeast, and he felt remorseful, and he just wanted to get out and leave at this time, how could he have any high opinions?

Xiao parted and said: "Duke Xu has a son like this, which makes the old people happy. Since Ru Yu has regained the power of Yongyang, we naturally don't need to bother with the matter of Shuiying, everyone knows that Qingjiang Shuiying Weizhen Yue County. ”

Xu Ruyu laughed and said: "The Qingjiang Water Camp has 100 warships and 5,000 soldiers who can arrive in Yongyang City in the afternoon, but it is still insufficient to resist the Puji Water Camp. ”

"What?"

Qingjiang Water Camp is close to Yongyang City, but he doesn't know anything. Xiao Beili glanced at Xu Daofu viciously, and thought: You hurt me.

Xu Daofu was also shocked in his heart, the Qingjiang Water Camp should pass through the waters under the jurisdiction of the Zhu family in four days, and the Zhu family has not been able to send the news out in four days, but you can imagine how careful Xu Ruyu's planning is, and he will not give others a chance to fight back at all.

Xiao Bieli knew that there was no more chance, even if he gave up the five hundred elite children hiding in the river, he was not completely sure that he wanted to get out alone.

Xu Ruyu said: "General Zhang discussed the disadvantages of the inner line defense, and Ru Yu deeply agreed, but the outer line defense needs the support of strong water battalion combat power. I decided to use Junshan in the Yanling Waijiang River as a base to set up a Jinghai Sea Battalion with an establishment of 10,000 troops, and the Qingjiang Water Battalion to send out 5,000 troops. ”

Everyone had already guessed this result when Xu Ruyu appeared, and Xu Ruyu would definitely not let Shuiying fall into the hands of other families, so there was no change.

"Since Xiao will first say that there is a shortage of warships, I hope that Donglin will support more." After that, a fine light shot out of his eyes, forcing Xiao to leave.

Zhang Zhongdao and the others also carried Danxi, but when Xiao Bieli refused to replace the proposal with a ship, they took him down and then made other proposals.

There were as many as four peerless masters of the same level as Xiao Bieli present, and there were even more second-grade masters, who were not afraid that he would fly to the sky.

Xiao Beili said dejectedly: "General Qingfeng is really good, how can I have any other choice?" "After that, he pointed to the Danhai Yuan Acupoint, closed the Dan breath by himself, and banned himself.

Xu Ruyu's eyes flashed with brilliance, and then he returned to normal. Xiao Bei thought: You have practiced Fu Weichen's mystical pupils, wouldn't it be too unwise to lie on it. Zhang Zhongdao immediately relaxed, and sat on the seat collapsed, without the appearance of the master just now.

Xu Ru smiled foolishly: "If my expectations are correct, your fleet will be out of Jinshui, if it is not too crowded, you can let half of the warships come out." Without waiting for Xiao to answer, he continued: "I forgot to tell Xiao Huishou that there are still 6,000 sailors in the Qingjiang Water Camp ready to leave the Qingjiang River. ”

opened his mouth to blackmail one-third of the battleships of the Donglin Society, and did not allow Xiao to refuse.

If no one gives a timely warning, the battleships of the Donglin Society will sail towards Yongyang according to the original plan, and they will be sealed on the river by the Qingjiang Water Battalion, and in the waterway downstream of Suyi, the Qingjiang Water Camp will have no chance to get out at all with the cooperation of the land army.

Xiao Bieli's face turned pale, his body couldn't stop trembling, and he couldn't say a word.

Xu Ruyu said lightly: "Xiao Huishou can leave, I think Xiao Huishou should enter the waters of Suyi when he encounters his own fleet; Yizhi and I are very compatible, I should do my best as a landlord, you can leave the five hundred children of your association in Yongyang to protect him. ”

At this time, the only thing that can save the Donglin Society from this doom is the water camp of the Zhu family and the Yi family, and regardless of whether the two families will be enemies of Xu Ruyu for the sake of the Donglin Society, there are only two time to mediate, and the time is too late.

Xiao Beili left gloomily, looking at his helpless and helpless back, Xu Dao's heart palpitated, and then it was his turn, and he could already feel that many gloating eyes were gathered on him.

However, Xu Ruyu's eyes turned, but he did not stop at Xu Daofu. Mei Tierui unexpectedly stood up and said loudly: "Mei Tierui, please withdraw the martial arts halls of each family, and Yongyang will set up the martial arts halls in a unified manner." ”

This sentence was like a boulder thrown into still water, and it suddenly caused an uproar. The family set up a martial arts hall to train the children of the clan, focusing more on military affairs and martial arts, and the high and low generals in the army all came from the martial arts hall set up by each family, so as to ensure absolute control over the army.
