Chapter 130: The Darkest Hour
On the northern border of Yinren Village, in a camp.
Zhang Yanyan and Lu Huahua looked at this inconspicuous camp curiously, both of them were guards at the level of ironclad captains, and they knew the location of many camps in the village, and they had never heard of such a camp north of Liangchengang.
The heroic young man walked around alone on the school field in the center of the camp and muttered: "This camp should be newly built, and the soil on the school field is still very clean, and there is not much floating dust. ”
In general, the school field of the camp, due to weekday training, the ground is repeatedly trampled on by guards, and the floating dust on the ground will be more and thicker. At this time, the young man found that the school field was clean and abnormal, and immediately made his own judgment.
Lu Huahua came out of the barracks, hugged her arms with one hand, and caressed her smooth neck with the other, and said indifferently: "There are a lot of cooking utensils and flags in the barracks. ”
The two looked at each other, and both saw doubts in each other's eyes.
At this time, the Teng Snake walked back from outside the camp, and the sky was already slightly white, but it should still be more than half an hour before sunrise.
"How's this camp going?" asked the tall Teng Snake with a smile.
Zhang Yanyan said softly: "It's new, it's strange. ”
"Oh, what's so strange?" said the tall young man chuckled.
"There are only flags and cooking utensils, no weapons and blades, this is a shadow camp, right?" Lu Huahua's magnetic voice sounded.
Teng Snake nodded appreciatively and said, "Our task is to negotiate with the people of Fallen Leaf City, since it is a negotiation, we need some façade, and this shadow camp is our façade." Each of you takes ten flags and follows me to the forest at the back of the camp, and we will arrange it. ”
The so-called shadow camp is actually a false camp established in real combat in order to disrupt the enemy's reconnaissance sight, and its tactical applications are varied, which can be used to hide the real camp and play a surprise effect, and can also be used to inflate one's own strength to deter the enemy.
Teng Snake, Zhang Yanyan, and Lu Huahua, each holding ten huge flags, came to the small hillside behind the camp, and planted one every ten zhang. Normally, a flag represents a whole squad, about ten or so people. At this time, thirty banners stood in the forest, representing a full three hundred regular armed forces.
In the eyes of outsiders, Yinren Village must have prepared an absolute main force for this negotiation, even if Ji Rentu led two thousand iron cavalry, in this dense forest, it was not the opponent of the three hundred elites of Yinren Village.
........................ Dividing line ........................
Helian Tiexin looked at the swarthy young man in the hall, ignored the other party, turned his head to look at Shui Yuntian, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Shui, why is this?"
The middle-aged man immediately bowed down and said: "Family master, my Tiexin Village and Yinren Village have been enmity for generations, although the population of that little Yinren is only half of my Tiexin, but in the past few decades, there has been constant friction between the two villages. As the saying goes, on the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly?"
Speaking of this, Shui Yuntian raised his eyes and glanced at Helian, and continued: "Shui has always known that the head of the family has great ambitions, and he is eloquent and has a strong iron heart. And this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
The white-haired old man smiled and asked, "Mr. Shui, tell me, what is the chance?"
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, and he knelt down on one knee and said: "Shui has followed the head of the family for more than ten years, and he is fortunate to be loved and entrusted with a heavy task to preside over the intelligence work of Tiexinyiying. Our spies got the news that Ji Shenfu, the city lord of Fallen Leaf City, had already sent troops to Yinren, according to which it was less than two hundred miles. ”
Helian Tiexin's eyes flashed when he heard the news, but he still didn't interject, just nodded, obviously he also had his own news channels.
The white-haired old man stood up, first helped Shui Yuntian, who was kneeling on one knee, up, and then ordered his subordinates: "The one who comes is a guest, the one who comes! Take these three guests down for breakfast." ”
The black and white couple and Lin Fenghuo were taken to the side hall for dinner.
Shui Yuntian continued in a deep voice: "As the saying goes, the sandpiper and the clam fight, and the fisherman profits! We can use this matter to blackmail Yinren Village and negotiate with them. ”
Helian frowned and looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Why did you negotiate with Yinren Village instead of teaming up with Fallen Leaf City to destroy them?"
"The head of the family, if the so-called Yinren Village is destroyed, then who will take over their remaining forces and territory? Is it the head of the family or the county leader?" Without waiting for the other party to answer, the middle-aged man added:
"Today, the forces of the six parties have been formed, and if they are broken rashly, they may become chaotic. Someone in the water still suggested that the head of the family should press the border through the fallen leaves and negotiate with the forbearance to jointly resist the enemy. With the help of Lin Fenghuo's advantages in our hands, we will exchange some more favorable conditions. For example......"
"Like what?" asked the white-haired old man.
"For example, let Yinren Village exchange Yanjing Iron Mine!" Shui Yuntian laughed in a gloomy voice.
Helian Tiexin, touching his thick short hair, although his beard and hair have gradually turned white, but the old man still feels that he is as strong as he was back then, counting the seventh aunt wife he married a few months ago, the head of the Helian family feels that he should be twenty years younger.
"Hahahaha, Mr. Shui is really resourceful! If it succeeds this time, Mr. should take the first credit!" said the head of the Helian family with a smile.
"What does the head of the family mean?......" Shui Yuntian asked in a slow voice.
"Just do as Mr. Water does!" the white-haired old man waved his hand and agreed briskly.
Shui Yuntian was overjoyed and said: "Shui is willing to ask for his life with his grandson and go to Queshan to facilitate this negotiation!" said that the middle-aged man wanted to kneel down on one knee again.
Helian Tiexin hurriedly supported the other party and said continuously: "No, no!"
"Shui Feng is young and promising, and his martial arts are also a first-class master in my Tiexin Village. Mr. Shui, I think the key to the success or failure of this matter lies in whether we can contain the Iron Cavalry of Fallen Leaf County. And this task is none other than Ling Xiansun. ”
Shui Yuntian's eyes flashed, obviously understanding the other party's concerns.
This time it was done, the negotiator must be a great achievement, and Shui Feng is in charge of the Tiexin Village Action Team, and Shui Yuntian is the intelligence director. If this is done, I am afraid that the Tiexin Village in the future will really be the one who has the final say for the grandfather and grandson.
It's not that Helian Tiexin is suspicious of sages, any force of the nature of the world, the attitude towards talents and talents has always been love, hate and fear.
Shui Yuntian retracted the light in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "What the head of the family said is that Shui Mou was not thoughtful, and he thought that he could let Gongzi Hong preside over this negotiation." Shui is willing to assist Childe and handle this matter without leaking!"
Helian Tiexin laughed and said, "Mr. is too worried! Mr. is still in charge of this negotiation, let Helian Hong follow Mr. Shui's side, and learn more." If there's anything wrong with him, let him beat and scold, as long as he lives and brings it back to me!"
The middle-aged man didn't dare to say anything.
......
In this way, the two of you said a word, I said a word, and the monarch and the minister walked into the breakfast hall in the side hall happily.
When the white-haired old man saw the three people seated, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked Shui Yuntian, "Who are these two couples?"
As he spoke, the head of the Helian family looked at the black and white couple sitting on one side.
