Chapter 249: Bao Juren Steals Books
Bao Juren sneered: "Ye Xingyuan, this person pretended to be a big talker, so happy. I heard that he recently tried to form a water division to block the demon army from going south, which is really self-defeating. If he stays in the north, the demon clan will only treat him as a ringworm and scabies, and he will not bother to take care of it.
But if he dares to move against the current, he is killing himself. It seems that Ye Xingyuan has learned well this year, and he knows that he can't do anything, so he would rather be a jade crush and earn a reputation. ”
Bao Juren advocated surrender in Jiangnan, but unfortunately he was knocked over by Ye Xingyuan with a stick, so he could only leave in a daze, and finally ended up alone, and nothing was achieved for more than a year. Because he made his attitude clear at the beginning, even if he wanted to die heroically, he could only go all the way to the dark, so he hated Ye Xingyuan deeply.
Chen Jianyi frowned and said: "Ye Xingyuan is scheming, he knows that the head-on confrontation is by no means the opponent of the demon clan, and the imperial court will never sit back and watch him go up and down the river. He deliberately released the news, I don't know what the conspiracy is?"
Bao Juren was stunned, but he didn't expect Chen Jian to have such an evaluation of Ye Xingyuan. The time for him to defect to the north was too late, and he didn't have time to make any contributions, and it was difficult to mix in the demon clan system. At this time, when he heard Chen Jian's concern, he volunteered: "Since Chen Gongzi is afraid of this person, this is also easy. Ye Xingyuan moved to Runzhou at this time to train the water division. How about I cross the river in white clothes and meet him for a while, and find out what he is real?"
Chen Jian nodded and said, "This is very good, if Brother Bao can find out his intentions, we can go toe-to-toe." If you go to this person, the general trend of this meeting will be in our hands. ”
The candidates for the examination are roughly divided into three factions, "martyrdom", "surrender" and "resistance". The number of martyrs is the largest, but these people are difficult to achieve anything, and they will not be competitive in the examination.
The capitulation faction and the resistance faction have their own opinions, and if they can successfully implement their strategies, they may be able to win the first place in the examination. Among them, the current leader of the surrender faction is none other than Chen Jian, and the representative of the resistance faction is naturally Ye Xingyuan, who is now famous in the north.
For the capitulationists. Ye Xingyuan's existence has become a key factor affecting their success or failure. If Ye Xingyuan fails, then of course everything is as usual, but what if he really succeeds against the sky?
In the face of the exam rankings, any national righteousness must be put behind for the time being, and Ye Xingyuan should be put down first, so that the resistance faction can be completely finished, so as to ensure that their surrender faction is ranked first.
Bao Juren understood, patted his chest at the moment, and said that he would definitely be able to listen clearly and understand and live up to his trust. Two Huai overnight. Only took a boy, bought a boat to cross the river, and went to Runzhou Water Village to visit Ye Xingyuan.
Ye Xingyuan was busy training the navy, and when he heard that Bao Juren was visiting, he smiled and said: "Since this person is here, I will make a plan to invite the leaders to set up a banquet and invite Lao Bao to drink." ”
Runzhou is now also a three-way zone, although it can be said to be the gateway to Beijing. If the demon clan crosses the river, it will inevitably take this place as the primary attack point, and it should focus on defense. But because of this, there is no army willing to be stationed here. The imperial court was blindly optimistic about the plan of "driving the tiger and devouring the wolf", and the relaxation of armament was shocking.
This also cheapened Ye Xingyuan, who led a rebel army of thousands of people to easily occupy Runzhou. There was still a suffocating silence on the part of the court.
Maybe it was because they were afraid that Ye Xingyuan was the vanguard of the demon clan, or because the bureaucracy was too bloated and didn't have time to react. Or maybe it's because it doesn't involve vital interests, and the ministers in the court don't care at all.
In short, Ye Xingyuan has been here for half a month, and the water village has already been slightly large-scale, and no local officials have even come to ask.
Bao Juren entered the water village, Ye Xingyuan rushed out, grabbed his hand enthusiastically, and laughed: "Brother Bao, you are finally here! Thinking of Brother Bao's high theory, I only feel that it makes sense, and I can't wait to listen to more teachings.
I only hated the country at that time, and I went north the next day, and I never saw Brother Bao again, which was a deep regret. It is a great joy to come here today. ”
Bao Juren didn't expect to receive such a warm welcome, and he was a little confused for a while, and said in his heart that he had suffered enough this year, changed his mind, and was determined to learn from me to defect to the demon clan?
Ye Xingyuan's words were ambiguous, and Bao Juren couldn't understand it, and was about to ask again, when a group of candidates in the same city in Jiangnan rushed in that day, and they all talked to him.
This interruption, the Bao Ju people didn't have time to ask. Ye Xingyuan sat down as the chief and poured wine for a while, and then said heroically: "It's rare for Brother Bao to come today, so we will rest for a day and only talk about Fengyue, regardless of state affairs." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone agreed: "This year has been hard enough, and you are finally willing to give us a day off." ”
Ye Xingyuan patted the shoulder of the person with a strong beating, choked his nose with the drink, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, it's decided." Today, he talks about state affairs in vain, and he who corrupts his brothers and drinks. Iron guard you as a wine officer, take the sword from my waist!"
He untied the cosmic edge and handed it to a strong man beside him, who took it with both hands with a solemn face. He held the sword in his arms and stood impartially behind the Baoju people, majestic. Bao Juren was so frightened that he stammered, where did he dare to say more, Ye Xingyuan couldn't stop persuading him to drink, and he didn't feel drunk after three rounds.
Rao is like this, Ye Xingyuan still refused to let go of Bao Juren, drunkenly pulled him to visit the water village, pointed to the sergeant of A all the way and asked, "Brother Bao, is my army quite majestic?"
Of course, Bao Juren could only nod yes, Ye Xingyuan laughed, and took him to the back to look at the granary, and asked, "Is my grain and grass quite sufficient?"
Bao Juren praised: "The soldiers are good enough to eat! Brother Ye Xian has been in the north for a year, and he has been able to develop to such a climate, at this time, I really want to hate Brother Fool for a while, and he has never walked with Brother Xian!"
He was also a little shocked in his heart, the starting point for each candidate to enter this world is about the same, although he is not afraid of starvation, but he does not have much capital.
When Ye Xingyuan sold his property and went to the north, there were only a few hundred inexperienced volunteer recruits, and the grain and grass were less than a month, but he didn't expect it to be only a year. He had thousands of male troops, all of whom were armoured, and tens of thousands of grains and grass, so that he could hold on to the lonely city.
Is it really so easy to make money going to the north? Bao Juren muttered in his heart. This shows that Ye Xingyuan has played well this year, and it also shows that the control of the demon clan in the east of the Beizhi River is still not enough, but don't really be exploited by this kid.
Fortunately, Ye Xingyuan was confused, and wanted to return to the frontal battlefield, so isn't this army a dish in front of the invincible demon cavalry?
Judging from what Bao Juren heard and witnessed today, Ye Xingyuan was either carried away by the victory and arrogant. Either they have given up the possibility of turning the situation around, and just want to make a big noise. No matter which answer it is, Chen Jian should be able to rest assured.
Ye Xingyuan finished showing off the army and grain and grass, pulled Bao Juren back to the camp tent, and only said vaguely: "I haven't seen Brother Bao for many days, and today I will sleep on my feet and talk until dawn, isn't it happy?"
Bao Juren only felt that Ye Xingyuan's hands were like iron tongs, and he was pulled into the account involuntarily, and then he was kicked to the ground again, rolling to the side of the bed and unable to get up with a sore back.
Ye Xingyuan leaned towards the bed, and immediately fell asleep, one leg hung down from the edge of the bed, just stepping on the chest of the Bao Juren, making him unable to get up.
Bao Juren couldn't cry or laugh, but fortunately, the weather was not too cold, so he was done overnight, which was also a sacrifice for the great cause. He drank too much wine, tore the blanket on the ground and wrapped it around him, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
About the third watch, Bao Juren suddenly felt a pain in his head, as if he had been hit by a stone on the bridge of his nose. He woke up with a sore gold star in his eyes, and when he opened his eyes and looked around, he saw a copper wine jug rolling to the ground, and vaguely remembered that Ye Xingyuan had been persistent since he was drunk, and he probably fell down in the middle of the face of the person.
Bao Juren rubbed the sore spot, seeing that Ye Xingyuan was still asleep, and his hanging thighs also turned over and took them back. got up with difficulty, went to the table and poured himself a cup of cold tea to sober up.
There were many documents on the table in a disorderly manner, and Bao Juren suddenly saw an unfolded letter, revealing only two sentences, "The major events on the river have been harmonized, so my brother should cooperate with the outside."
Bao Ju's heart suddenly shuddered, quietly pulled out the letter, and was about to read it carefully, when he suddenly heard a cough from outside the tent, and someone asked: "Ye Gongzi, have you ever been awake?
Ye Xingyuan turned over on the bed, was so frightened that he rolled to the ground wrapped in the letter, bury his head in the blanket, and didn't even dare to get out.
I only heard Ye Xingyuan agree in a daze, slowly turned over and got out of bed, and staggered to the door of the tent, and the people outside lowered their voices and said: "There is news from the north, just say that the sailor of the demon clan"
"Shhhhhh ”
He stepped out of the tent, took a few steps, and whispered to the people outside. Bao Juren straightened his ears, but he couldn't hear anything clearly, and he only felt itchy and scratchy.
After a while, Ye Xingyuan returned and called softly twice, "Brother Bao! Brother Bao!"
Bao Juren only pretended to be asleep and didn't say a word, Ye Xingyuan shook his head and smiled: "He drank so much wine last night, he shouldn't have been able to wake up, I'm really worried." ”
He chuckled, rolled over to bed, pulled over the covers, and in a moment snored like thunder.
Bao Ju's heart was beating wildly, and when Ye Xingyuan's snort stabilized, he tiptoed out of the tent, and when he saw it by the moonlight, he was suddenly frightened and sweated like rain.
Fortunately, I came to such a trip and saw such a letter, this can smash Ye Xingyuan's conspiracy! Otherwise, silently, I am afraid that this situation will really be turned over by this kid! (To be continued.) )
