Chapter 397: This is called the pattern! (Thanks to the 'Book Friends' 19943_de for the tip!) )
"Can you win?"
I'm talking to Yang Rong on the phone.
Yang Rong is asking me for money.
Yes, that's right, since the laying down of Mengmao County, not only has that broken place not created a penny of income for me, but now, I have to put money into it.
Why?
Because of the military control!
Because of Yang Rong's carefulness.
Because all the goods of the passing merchants had to be strictly inspected, everyone could only take the avenue, and all the places where tax avoidance could be sealed to avoid being attacked, resulting in the intersection of the five armies, which should have been developed, almost became a dead city.
Therefore, Mengneng will become more and more developed.
And our phone calls also talked about money, defense, and troop deployment, and after Yang Rong told me everything, he gave me a number.
He said that if the Burmese army came to attack, it could hold for four hours.
At this time, I asked stupidly, "Can you win?" ”
In fact, I know the answer in my heart, the big guy Peng led the allied army in the mountains and couldn't hold the Nantianmen, so my county town surrounded by mountains could be defended?
But I still have to ask this, otherwise what do I want you to do as the Lord?
"I can win."
Yang Rong gave me an unexpected answer.
I laughed.
It's probably the funniest joke I've ever heard since I came to Southeast Asia.
It's like seeing a child who studies well when I was a child, and I asked disdainfully: "You can be admitted to Peking University, so hard." As a result, the question was exciting, and people replied: "I can go to Tsinghua University!" ”
Still, I can understand that.
They have been in Mengneng for so long, and they will more or less be infected with some habits of the rivers and lakes, not to mention that as the main general, they can't extinguish their own prestige, of course they will say so.
"Do you believe me?"
Yang Rong asked again.
I quickly replied, "I don't believe you, who do I believe?" ”
It's the truth.
All my family is in the run, all the equipment is in the run, I don't believe who he believes?
Yang Rong replied: "Okay, since you believe me, then from now on, don't believe anyone but me." As soon as you get the news that Mengmao is going to war, you will immediately bring people over and be ready to counterattack at any time, dare you? ”
Still counterattacking?
This phone call is like listening to a book from heaven.
"Okay."
Yang Rong said 'um', and finally said: "Remember to pay money." ”
Then, I heard a busy phone tone.
This time, I didn't hide any strategic intentions, and told Yang Rong at the beginning that they might have to withstand the attack of the Burmese army, because I had to tell all the forces in northern Myanmar that I, Xu Ruifeng, were not soft persimmons that anyone could pinch if they wanted to.
He is the chief general of my Chinese army, and I naturally will not hide anything from him.
As for whether he hid it from me, I don't know.
"Half Bula!"
Hanging up the phone, I stood in the office and shouted outside.
Banbula stepped in, the straight back that he had raised when he was the police chief was now bent, and the two big dark circles under his eyes were very tired on his eye sockets, and even the bags under his eyes were a lot bigger: "Master, what's wrong?" ”
"How much money is on the books?"
"After deducting the necessary expenses, plus the latest income, there are still 20 million left, but there is a tank money for the West Asians here......"
"Call Meng Mao."
As soon as I finished speaking, Banbula reached out and pressed it on the back of my hand, and then, turning back and pushing the door shut, he slammed the lock with a 'click', and then turned back.
"Master, do you have a bottom in your heart?"
He didn't seem to know how to speak, and pondered for a long time before picking up the conversation: "Now Mengneng's military strength and armament are in his hands, he was raised by Lao Qiao from childhood to adulthood, and when Lao Qiao died, I heard that the person who gave you the most headache was him......"
"Now, we have to call him all the fronts on the account, which is equivalent to putting our lives in his hands."
"You didn't ask what you wanted, you need so much money?"
He let go of his hand and stood across from me.
In the past, Banbra had never questioned any of my decisions, but when he heard this today, he began to waver.
I took half a step back, sat down on the desk, crossed one leg, and landed on the other leg and asked, "Scared?" ”
"Follow you, there's nothing to be afraid of, but you have to put everything in the hands of Yang Rong, a little."
I nodded, at least it was the truth.
"Then do you think, who can replace Yang Rong in that position now?"
"Are those okay? Experienced in a hundred battles, a top player, whether it is a battlefield commander or a squad raid, he is stronger than all of us here. ”
When Banbula heard my words, he immediately shook his head: "Mercenary, you can't believe it. ”
"Hey, what about the two officers who have just surrendered?"
"General, why can't you observe for a while?"
"What about the Wa chieftains? The head of one party has a status in the hearts of the Wa people, and he responds to every call. ”
Banbula shook his head anyway.
Until I got off the table and straightened my clothes: "I'm always okay, right?" ”
Banbula was directly deflated: "You can't do it even more......" He added: "I don't mean anything else......" The words were only half said and stopped talking.
"I can't ask." He figured it out.
People take the entire Mengneng army, take their lives in front, and ask you for two money, you ask the east and the west?
turned his head and surrendered directly to the Burmese army, how much money did he want, how much did people give, do you believe it?
If you surrender to Lao Cai, you will gain a lot of money, and when the time comes, you will be able to suffer the enemy on your back!
If you are not the worst, you can also stand yourself as a king, right?
In Mengmao, I planted a flag and fell into the grass, shouting 'I opened this mountain, I planted this tree', who can take people to what land? Isn't it true that you will turn your face and earn your own money and spend it yourself?
Still asking?
Banbula opened his mouth again: "Master, then this matter is too risky......"
I reached out and slapped it Banbula's arm, and my hands clapped it, only for a moment: "I know what you want to say, what if you want to say 'what if'?" ”
"You want to say this is northern Myanmar, and anything can happen here."
"But what I want to tell you is, if this matter falls on you, what if you Banbra leads the troops outside to guard the country for me?"
I could see every expression of his face as the sun shone on his face.
"Go, get paid."
Banbula looked at me for a long time before turning around, and I could tell from his gaze that he had taken it.
However, if you ask me at this time if I ever doubted Yang Rong in Mengneng back then, I would say, there is!
But I hid my suspicions in my heart and threw my worries into the stove pit, because at this moment, as long as I discussed this matter with Banbu, when he did something for me again tomorrow, I would have a pimple in my heart, and I would think, 'Should Master Xu also doubt me?'"
It is very likely that this sentence was said by him after drinking in their private small gathering, and this kid would not have said at that time: "I suspected Yang Rong with Xu Ye at the beginning." He had to pick it clean for himself and said: "Back then, when the Yangrong family guarded the country and played with Xu Ruifeng in such a dangerous place, didn't he still suspect others?" ”
Got it?
It's not a question of whether you have evidence or not.
"Master."
The old harrier eagle walked in from outside the door, holding his phone.
I'm a little reluctant to see him, as long as he's fine.
"What's going on again?" I habitually asked.
"It's not an accident this time, it's Bjea who is going to be popular." (End of chapter)
