Because the time happened to be about to have dinner, Chen Wu invited Yan Xing's thirteen horsemen to stay for dinner by the way.

Now the rebel army is still in its infancy, and Chen Wu is not particularly particular, so the food is naturally average. Although it is much better than ordinary rebel soldiers, it is at best the level of a wealthy family in Longshan. When Yan Xing rode thirteen horses in the Northland, the pomp and circumstance of the great clans they had seen were far greater than this.

However, after the sudden debut, he did not show off as eagerly as an upstart, but made Yan Dongxing more and more optimistic about Chen Wu.

What surprised him even more was that Chen Wu arranged for him to be the head of the equestrian coach, and promised that as long as the training was good, at least the position of deputy commander of the horse team was waiting.

What do you mean by "at least"?

Before defecting, Yan Dongxing, who had already inquired about some information about the rebels, was very clear. This arrangement is nothing more than that his qualifications are too shallow, and he can't serve the public if he is rashly promoted. After joining the rebel army, as long as a period of time passes and makes a few great achievements, the position of deputy commander of the horse team is ironclad. Even the word "vice" may not be impossible to remove!

This reuse, which is completely different from the Good Friends Association, warmed the hearts of the thirteen riders of Yan Xing.

Almost everyone felt that it was too wise to defect to the Taiping Rebels this time.

"When I go back, think about how I can help...... Drill up the horse team of our rebels. Since General Tiangong has given Yan the position of the head of equestrian education, we have to be worthy of this value. I am certain of this meeting, and the general can indeed succeed. As long as we keep up with it, there will be a lot of glory and wealth waiting for us in the future, and the brothers should seize this opportunity! ”

"Big brother, don't worry."

Yan Xing's thirteen horsemen responded in unison, and everyone's faces were excited.

………

Perhaps today is destined to be an unstable day. In the morning, the two armies that served as pioneers were sent away. In the afternoon, he was joined by the thirteen horsemen of Yan Xing. It was just before eight o'clock in the evening. Outside the courtyard where Chen Wu lived, a mysterious visitor was once again welcomed.

"reported to the general, the person who came deliberately covered his face, and refused to reveal his identity, only saying that there was something important to talk to the general."

The first time they encountered this kind of thing, the pro-guard team obviously couldn't make up their minds, and had to disturb Chen Wu's purity.

"Didn't you say anything?"

This inexplicable guy, Chen Wu was also a little confused.

The guard thought for a moment and said, "The sentry at the door seems to have said something." The other party claimed to be from the south. ”

From the south?

Chen Wu pondered for a moment, but vaguely guessed a little possibility. He thought for a moment and said, "Call him in, remember to search his body carefully, and don't let go of the slightest detail." In addition, go and ask the general of the land to be brave! ”

Dian Yong's bravery, Chen Wu is confident, and it is definitely the level of a fierce general. With him protected indoors, even if the comer really had any bad intentions, it would be difficult for him to pose a threat to Chen Wu. Not to mention. If what he expected was right, this person is a "friend" and not an enemy!

As for why this friend is in quotation marks......

After confirming the identity of the visitor. Naturally, you know.

Coincidentally, Dian Yong happened to come back from the Taiping camp inspection, and he was only halfway through the meal. Hearing that Chen Wu called him, and learning that there was a mysterious visitor, he immediately changed into chain mail and rushed over with a sword.

A moment later, the man in a blue shirt who seemed to be everywhere walked into the courtyard. He was holding a hat in his hand that had been taken off after he was admitted to the hospital, but his face was still covered with a square scarf, and he couldn't see his specific appearance.

Li Zishi personally led a team of guards to the door, and then guarded ten steps outside the house. As soon as there is any unusual movement inside, it will immediately rush in to protect the Lord.

"Who is Your Excellency, and what do you want to see me?"

For this guy who is about to come to the door without knowing each other and hides his head and tail, Chen Wu is not polite, and he does not need to be polite.

"Is this how General Tiangong treats his friends from afar?" The man in the green shirt laughed hoarsely a few times, and without waiting for Chen Wu to give up his seat, he sat on the rattan chair in front of him, and said to Chen Wu and Dian Yong: "Don't mention my name, the reason why I came to see the general is because I have the same purpose as the general." ”

"Oh?"

Chen Wu seemed to ask suspiciously, but he felt inexplicably familiar with this guy in his heart.

But anything that can make him feel this way is almost certainly a famous character in "Empire". Moreover, although the other party's voice is disguised, it can still hear a unique exotic tone.

It's just that for a moment, he couldn't figure out who the person in front of him was.

"The general doesn't need to doubt that your rebels are here to overthrow the tyranny of the Empire, and I am also not used to the atrocities of the Qianyuan Empire. Seeing that the general dared to raise troops to be the first in the world, I admired in my heart and wanted to come and make a contribution, and that's all -- there was no place to deceive or take advantage of the general. If General Tiangong doesn't believe it, I don't need to stick a hot face to a cold ass, just leave. ”

With that, he got up and made a gesture to leave, playing a trick of retreating into advance.

Chen Wu knew very well in his heart that this person had ulterior motives for coming to the door. Even if you do leave, you will definitely find a reason to come back in two days. However, it didn't matter if it was so troublesome, this guy said such a big call, and that somewhat special tone finally reminded Chen Wu of who he was.

First of all, they claim to be from the south, but they don't deal with the Empire.

At this point, there is only one force that Chen Wu can think of - the Oman Dynasty!

This southern feudal state, once favored by the Empire, is now ready to turn against its master. Over the years, several small principalities have been annexed by the Omani dynasty. If it weren't for the Tiannan Army of the famous imperial general Leji, who kept them out of the Nanfeng Fortress, I am afraid that the army of the Omani Dynasty would have already gone north.

The so-called Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by. If there was any southern power that wanted civil strife in the empire the most, it would be the Omani people.

Thinking about this clearly, and comparing it with those who had heads and faces in the Omani Dynasty and dared to take risks to infiltrate the empire at this time, the scope was suddenly much smaller. Combined with that unique tone, approximate height and body type, Chen Wu could only think of one person.

Yan Xingbang, the intelligence agency of the Omani Dynasty and the leader of the Black Guards...... henchmen!

Yan Xingbang has two right-hand men, one is codenamed the Wolf of Nanshan, and he is said to be extremely cruel and cunning; The other one is the visitor in front of him.

Codenamed Green Fox's alley light!

Chen Wu didn't know why he had this code name, but according to the player's research, Hu Tongguang preferred cyan, and his surname was "Hu", perhaps because of the homonym, so he gave himself this name. Whether this is the case or not, Chen Wu is not sure, but it is not really important.

Just know who it's coming.

This is one of the top five intelligence agencies of the Omani Dynasty!

called out his identity, and it was not difficult to guess the other party's intention. At this moment, Chen Wu was thinking about how to deal with him. Exploitation is definitely to be exploited, but what about after that? Is it to take advantage of this rare opportunity to kill, or quietly stab his whereabouts and current pseudonym identity to the emperor's ** intelligence bureau?

Either way, Chen Wu's other thought now is: It's great to be able to predict history!

Where could Hutongguang have expected that before he came in and said a few words, his identity was revealed. What he was thinking now was that Chen Wu was probably really wary of him, and it seemed that the first contact was going to fail. But just as he was about to exit the door, Chen Wu finally stopped him.

Hutongguang's heart suddenly settled.

This adventure into the empire's mission is done!

"The gentleman refuses to report himself to his family, nor does he show his true appearance, which makes it really difficult for Ben to trust...... Anyway, Ben decided to give you a chance. You seem to have said something before, and you are willing to contribute? Chen Wu looked at him with scrutiny and suspicion.

"As I said, we are on the same page when it comes to dealing with the Empire."

Hu Tongguang smiled and motioned for the guards outside the door to bring up the package he brought.

Li Zishi glanced at him with some vigilance, then looked at Chen Wu, and after getting permission, he put the package that had been checked in front of Chen Wu.

The package, which had been stopped at the door, contained a brand-new weapon that exuded cold murderous intent in the middle.

Crossbow!

This thing has a shorter range than a bow and arrow, but it is extremely powerful, and ordinary leather armor and even chain mail will be pierced by crossbow arrows, and it can be wound in advance.

Whether it's hand-to-hand combat, sieges, or special operations such as assassinations, this thing can cause massive damage in an instant.

The Empire's control of bows and crossbows has always been very strict. However, if it is said that ordinary hunting bows, or some aristocratic families have a few bows and arrows in their private possession, the imperial government can still turn a blind eye. If someone dares to hide such a thing as a crossbow, then the empire will never be merciful, and it is a felony to be caught.

Like the trebuchet, this is also a militaristic heavy weapon.

"Good stuff!"

Although Dian Yong could even get a hard bow from Ershi, he couldn't help but let out a low exclamation in the face of this well-made crossbow made of stainless steel.

If it weren't for the lack of arrows, he would have itched hands and would have been able to test the power immediately.

"In order to show my sincerity, I can give the general fifty sets of this hard crossbow free of charge, and a thousand special crossbow arrows. If there are not enough crossbow arrows, other arrows can be substituted, but the accuracy and range may be affected. The corners of his mouth under the light square scarf in the alley brought a triumphant smile, and he bowed down and said: "Due to the hasty itinerary and the fact that I dare not attract attention, it is really difficult to carry more materials, so please forgive the general." ”

Fifty sets of hard crossbows!

Even if he guessed the other party's intention in advance, Chen Wu couldn't help but be taken aback, let alone Dian Yong.

He knew very well what this kind of crossbow meant, and he thought that the other party only had a crossbow as a gift, and he didn't pay too much attention to it. But as soon as you open your mouth, there are fifty sets, and a thousand special crossbow arrows are included, which is still free, and the fool also knows that there is a problem with the other party's origin.

"Who the hell is Your Excellency?"

He put the crossbow on the table, and the momentum on his body condensed. (To be continued......)
