"General, here we are. ”

When he came to his senses, Barlow did not dismount immediately, but looked up at the few taverns that were still open, then turned his head sideways, and then swept the deserted environment around him, frowned slightly, and finally turned his gaze to the young soldier.

As if he knew what Barlow was thinking, the young soldier became more and more respectful: "This conversation is extremely important, in order to prevent too many people, my general did not come out to greet him, and I ask the general not to be surprised." ”

Nodding noncommittally in understanding, Barlow's expression did not change in any way. On the contrary, the cavalry of the guards on the side urged the horse forward, looked at the young soldier vigilantly, and leaned closer to lower his voice: "General be careful, something is wrong here." ”

They were all elite soldiers who broke through from the corpse mountain and the sea of blood, and they just took a slight look at the surrounding environment, and they also noticed the weirdness of the atmosphere here. However, Barlow didn't say anything when he heard this, he looked deeply at the young soldier who was still respectful, turned over and dismounted, and waved: "Lead the way ahead." ”

Since he was attracted here for a moment, it is better to go in and see what the other party wants. And don't look at the cold and quiet around, you can't see anyone at a glance. But since it was a trap, Barlow didn't think that he could break out lightly with more than 100 cavalry on his side.

It was just a gesture to dismount in unison, and more than 100 guards cavalry tacitly divided into two teams. A team stays out, looking for an opportunity to explore the surrounding geography and at least know where to break out in the event of a conflict. One team pressed the hilt of their knives and followed closely behind Barlow, apparently intent on entering the tavern together.

Honestly, it's not in accordance with the rules. If it's really Gary inside, it's a transgression. It's a big disrespect. But the young soldier was nowhere to be seen. I didn't seem to see the meaning of the half hundred cavalry. With a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he still walked respectfully in front of him to lead the way.

From the outside, you can see that the area of this tavern is not too large. Passing through two wooden doors, you will find the reception hall. Walking here, Barlow's expression was still calm. After all, he is a fierce man who has seen the battlefield of Qikuo, let alone a tavern. If necessary, even if he knows the tiger's den in Longtan, he will do it.

But upon stepping through the tavern doors, Barlow was hit by a feast. Looking at the things in the hall in a daze, his expression was first puzzled, and then undisguised shock.

Stunned, he raised his hand and made a stop gesture to the vigilant and cautious cavalry in the rear: "Exit, no one is allowed to come in without my order." ”

"General......

"Retreat!"

"Yes. After these half-hundred cavalry, who were both worried and unwilling, completely withdrew from the tavern door, Barlow took a slight breath, looked at the young man who was smiling and standing at the only wooden table in the hall, squinted his eyes, and strode in. "If I'm not mistaken, you're at the top of the guild's wanted mission boards. It is also the target of my Bran army's encirclement and suppression of the Gray Coats this time, Your Excellency Donn, right?"

Laughing at himself, Tang En stepped forward: "Ha, I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect Big Brother Barlow to remember me......" Of course, Barlow will not forget Don En, not to mention that the first time he came to encircle and suppress the Gray Army, he directly failed because of Tang En. Let's just say that not long ago, when they joined forces to resist the Northern Barbarians on the front line, because of Frey's relationship, their friendship was also not shallow. Of course, because someone's public face really couldn't find a memory point, Barlow was also puzzled to confirm it, and then asked the personal guard cavalry to exit the tavern......

After a few steps, Don stopped and saluted briefly, and then smiled easily: "However, shouldn't your target this time be Josia?"

"Josia, of course, too, but you're more special. Barlow said expressionlessly, "You should know that in addition to the military, there is also the Temple of Light that is worried about you. ”

Don touched his nose: "So, I'm still a little famous?"

Taking a step forward, the atmosphere was solemn, and Barlow's eyes flickered: "What's more, if I can take your head to lead the army, not to mention that I will soar in the future, it will be no problem to rise to the top in the short term." ”

Spreading his hands, Tang En pointed to the simple wine on the wooden table behind him: "In this way, how about drinking a glass of Zhuangxing wine before taking my head?"

"Well...... Let me think about it. ”

"Haha......"

"Haha......" Seeing Don raise his head and laugh, Barlow finally couldn't hold back anymore, and laughed heroically, and the tense atmosphere in the hall was instantly swept away.

Seeing Don in this large city, which was the command center of Bran's army in a short period of time, was undoubtedly a big surprise to Barlow. However, with the acquaintance and friendship between the two, even if he knew that the other party's move was similar to throwing himself into the net, Barlow couldn't do anything like meeting and doing it. Taking a step back, even if you want to do it, it's not too late for this meal.

The two of them sat opposite each other across the wooden table, looking at Don who took the initiative to pour wine, Barlow raised the corners of his eyebrows, as if he thought of something, and asked directly: "You will appear here at this time...... The mysterious master who killed Bretta in Pia City a few days ago can't be you, right?"

"Britta? Oh, that's the Virgo. ”

"Virgo, what do you mean?"

"Uh, nothing...... If you're talking about Bretta, a general who dies clean, then I'm right. ”

"Sure enough, it's you! I've been wondering when such a mysterious master has appeared in the Gray Army. Shaking his head and sighing, Barlow's face was full of surprise when he heard this, and he said that Bretta's planting this time was not too wrong.

Take a plan that is arranged for ordinary vindictive powerhouses, and deal with Tang En, who has been wanted by the Temple of Light all over the continent for a whole year but is still unsuccessful, failure is naturally expected. The only blame can only be blamed on Brighta's bad luck, and he inadvertently kicked the iron plate......

Slightly lamenting the bad luck of Fanbreita, Barlow picked up the clay bowl full of wine and touched it with Donn, raised his head and poured it down, and drank it in one gulp. The drinks weren't too good, just plain, but they were strong enough to satisfy the appetite of people like Barlow who had been stationed on the bitter cold frontier all year round.

Raising his hand to wipe the wine stains from the corner of his mouth, Barlow put down the pottery bowl and looked at Don with a smile: "You came from so far and wide to come to the bar, don't you just want to have a drink with me." Say, what do you want to do?"

While picking up the wine jar and pouring the wine again, Tang En said casually: "Don't you think too much, I'm here to deliver a letter this time." ”

"Deliver the letter?" Barlow smiled noncommittally. "What letter?"

"Reminiscing and chattering about the short ordinary letters of the parents. "Put down the jug. Don reached into his arms and touched it. He took out a letter and handed it over casually.

"Ha, it seems that you are not a good messenger. Looking at the folded envelope shell in his hand, the corners of Barlow's mouth couldn't help twitching, tidying it up, pulling out a few sheets of the same folded letter paper, and then put it on the table and flattened it again, and then swept his eyes up and down casually, his body tensed. The gaze is frozen.

Tang En was not surprised by Barlow's reaction, and drank to himself and said, "Although I haven't read it, with the cultural level of Brother Frey, I can't think of anything touching to people's hearts...... Bear with me, knowing that this is Feng Ce's counter-letter, just make do with it,"

On the periphery of the hall, the young soldier guarding the door of the tavern, that is, Luke, couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth when he heard this. The Boss of the Heart is not only not a qualified messenger. Still an unqualified lobbyist. How can there be such a reckless step, but Barlow is also a famous general of the three major army groups on the front line. Is it really good that you casually ask people to give up their great future and devote themselves to the great cause of rebellion with no bright future?

I don't know if it's good or not, but Barlow didn't have any special reaction when he heard it. In fact, even if there was a thunder in his ears now, Barlow would not bother, his whole mind was on a few pieces of paper, excited, melancholy, and nostalgic...... His expression is as unpredictable and complex as a change of wind and clouds.

The letter was indeed written by Frey, Skinny Monkey, Big Bear and a group of old brothers from the original spear breaking team, and as Don expected, the content of the letter did not have any touching words, in fact, it did not even mean to provoke a clear strategy to persuade him to surrender. Some are just full of memories, reminiscing about the good times when a group of old brothers were in the past, and the memory of some dead old brothers......

There are some things that really don't need to be said explicitly, one is unnecessary, and the other is hurtful feelings.

Of course, Frey and the others desperately hope that Barlow will join the Gray Army, and that a group of old brothers can be reunited, fight side by side again, and be proud of the battlefield. But it was only a will, and they respected Barlow's idea more. How many years of life and death friendship have also made them not as 'utilitarian' as Josia and Donne, and directly show that they are plotting against them, thinking that this can enhance the strength of the Gray Army. All they had in their minds was that whether it worked out or not, they hoped that Barlow would not be embarrassed.

After all, time has passed, and Barlow is no longer the ordinary soldier nicknamed 'madman' in the spear-breaking team back then, he is now the number one general in the main army, with his own future, and other fetters, etc., it is undoubtedly unrealistic to want to act freely and freely as before......

Of course, Don and Barlow don't have such a deep friendship, so watching Barlow hang his head and flip through a few pieces of paper, he began to exercise his mission as a lobbyist: "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry to hear that Big Brother Barlow was coming over this time, so without saying hello, I already sent Harry to Big Brother's house some time ago...... You know, I don't mean anything else. No matter what decision you make in the end, Brother Barlow, I will guarantee that your family will always be safe. ”

It is not a trivial matter to rebel against the general of the regular army, and it is not just a matter of pulling people over. Long before he had this thought, Don was already sitting in front of him. If Barlow is willing to join the Grey Army, his family will naturally have to be transferred as much as possible to avoid subsequent retaliation. If Barlow is unwilling, Don will send Barlow's family back safely again, as if it hadn't happened.

Shaking his head slightly, Barlow didn't misunderstand when he heard this, his fingers gently rubbed the paper, and his expression was obviously hesitant and struggling.

Seeing this, Tang En said again: "I understand what Brother Frey, they mean, it is completely up to you to choose." I respect Big Brother Frey's wishes, but at the same time, I really think Big Brother Barlow should think about it. It's not because of Big Brother Frey, it's because of where you're now...... Well, it's a bit shameless to say that, you're here because of us, but it's true that you're in a bad situation right now, isn't it?"

Barlow shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You know this, hehe, it seems that I am really down." ”

"I can't say that, it's mainly because the two thousand cavalry of you, big brother, and the more than 10,000 soldiers of the Cangyan Legion who came over this time are really too different, and everyone can see that something is wrong. ”

"Yes......" Barlow nodded knowingly.

"Moreover, the incident with Brother Frey back then, although the fuse was the brainless nobleman. But if there is no jealousy, the villain hides it from it. How can this nine-death military order be so easy to get into your hands? Fight side by side with such a group of villains who framed Big Brother Frey. Aren't you worried about getting stabbed in the back?"

Barlow frowned when he heard this: "You have evidence?"

"Evidence?...... Don chuckled disapprovingly. said, "I still remember that when I was on the front line last year, in the defense area of the Zichen Legion, the one named Venal killed by Brother Frey, wasn't he one of the villains who framed you in the Thunder Legion back then? Moreover, you can only bring two thousand personal guard cavalry to participate in the encirclement and suppression this time...... Don't blame me for speaking too bluntly, this is clearly the rhythm of killing people with a knife. ”

Stunned, Barlow looked at Don and suddenly grinned: "Haha." I'll admit, at least you're a good lobbyist. ”

"Uh...... Is it visible? so obvious?" Donn touched his nose and smiled as well, "Well, I'm here to rebel. The regular army is not interesting, come and rebel with us. How exciting this is, eating meat and drinking wine in large bowls! Moreover, the front-line army is not allowed to bring women, like our gray-clothed army, there are family members with them everywhere, and there is no need to hold back when there is a need. Even if you are wounded, you will enter the wounded barracks. As soon as the curtain is lifted, ho. It's all young women who take care of her, and you're completely uniformed, seductive, and sure you get hurt once, and you want to hurt a second time, hehe......"

Hey laughed a few times, Don En looked at a man who understood, and he wanted to speak and stopped, and he was very tempting.

However, when Luke heard this, he stroked his forehead, and he couldn't bear to look at it directly. Boss, boss, are you sure you're here to be a lobbyist, not a lacker? Moreover, your realm of opening your eyes and telling nonsense is too deep, and there are women in the wounded barracks who volunteer to help, but those are all aunts and aunts, where did they come from to subdue and seduce......

"Haha......" are all reckless men, Barlow was not embarrassed when he heard this, nodded and smiled, "It sounds really good!"

"That's right, it's all right!" asked Donn, drawing a flatbread with white teeth, his chest thumping, "How is it, heartbeat, do you want to think about it?"

"Well, it's really worth considering......" Touching his chin, Barlow seemed to be really lost in thought. Of course, this is not about subduing temptation, it is just a joke to soothe the atmosphere, so as not to be embarrassed after a polite refusal.

After a moment, Barlow suddenly clenched his fists, picked up the clay bowl and poured it down, as if he had made up his mind. However, after meeting Tang En's earnest gaze, he didn't answer directly, but pointed to the direction of the tavern door and smiled: "If I refuse, won't I be able to get out of here today?"

"Huh?" said Big Brother Barlow. Don shook his head with a smile, but he couldn't help but be slightly excited in his heart, because things seemed to be developing in a good direction...... Spread his hands and said, "Don't say that you and I have a relationship, just say that if I really hurt you, Brother Frey must not lead a group of old brothers such as Skinny Monkey to chase and kill me for thousands of miles!"

There was a pause, "Of course, if Big Brother Barlow you really have the heart to refuse." Please also leave a few dozen minutes for the sake of this meal, so that my little brother and I can run out of the city. ”

"Haha!" Throwing his head up and laughing, Barlow slapped the table and waved, "Okay, that's fine, you can run away now......"

"Uh...... Huh?" Tang En was stunned for a moment, then shocked, and couldn't stop regretting in his heart. The subtext of letting him run away, isn't that a rebellion failure?

At this time, Barlow suddenly said, "Of course, you have to take me." Damn! This aggrieved general Lao Tzu is enough, who do you love, or have fun with the captain!"

"Huh...... Damn, Big Brother Barlow, I won't take you so much gasp. Rubbing his eyebrows, Donn grumbled and muttered. However, his face was completely ecstatic that could not be concealed, and the big stone in his heart fell to the ground, holding up the wine bowl, "Come, do it, it should be a celebration of Brother Barlow joining the Gray Army!"

"Wait. Barlow pressed the wine bowl and said solemnly, "It's okay to join the Gray Army, but there are a few conditions. ”

"It's no problem at all! Isn't it just a few conditions, big brother, you just open your mouth, little brother, I'm out of the way." Are you thinking about subduing the temptation? No problem, let's say, do you want to break an arm or break a leg? Little brother, I promise to do it properly for you, and I will send you to the wounded barracks when I go back. ”

"Damn!" Barlow found that he still underestimated Tang En's lower limit, and he couldn't break down decisively, and said with a wry smile, "Don't joke, I still have a good relationship with your sister-in-law...... Ahem, that's not the point, well, the first condition is to keep my family safe, I owe them a lot, and I can't let them have an accident again. The second is that it was only me who joined the Grey Army, not anyone else. ”

After a pause, he pointed to the door, "The two thousand cavalry outside the house, although they are my personal guards and completely obey my orders, these are all people with families and rooms." I have a way out, it doesn't matter if I betray, but they can't, please understand that. ”

"Third, after all, I fought for Bran for most of my life, so I could get together and disperse. So I hope that until I arrive at the Grey Army's garrison, I will not interfere in the war between you and Bran. For example, in this city right now, I won't help you fight it down...... Well, that's all. ”

Hearing this, Tang En nodded without hesitation: "Okay, no problem, I can promise you these three conditions now." ”

"So be it, sooner or later, I will go out of the city with you when I go back and explain it. "Barlow is a decisive man, and since he has made up his mind, he doesn't want anything else, so he gets up and goes out to make arrangements.

"Wait. This time, it was Don En's turn to call Barlow, and said with a mysterious smile, "Hehe, big brother, are you going to go to the Gray Army garrison like this?"

"Huh?" Barlow was suddenly surprised when he heard this, "Didn't you just say that it was just me, and I didn't implicate other ......."

"Big brother misunderstood. Tang En waved his hand and said, "Since Big Brother has decided to join the Gray Army, in order not to waste your military talents, of course we hope that you can come to fight immediately!

"Cast ...... What do you vote for?"

"Oh, to put it simply, it's a credential to make everyone believe in you. Don't worry, I don't need to worry about this, I have already sent someone to do it...... Hehe, the same excuse, to invite that Gary to come over for a talk, this shouldn't go against the eldest brother's conditions. ”

“......”
