Chapter 214

The next day, Ye Hongyu, on behalf of Li Yuan, brought 100 million silver to the Hengshan Army barracks, and handed over [-] horses to Lin Yifan face to face.

After the subordinates of both parties went to deal with the transaction, Lin Yifan bought wine to entertain Ye Hongyu. Lin Yifan was very concerned about this person, because through yesterday's performance, he found that Ye Hongyu was not a simple person. A real resourceful talent.This made him jealous, wishing he could poach Li Yuan's corner and take him to Hengshan.However, he was very worried that if he used force or some means to force him to surrender and surrender to Hengshan, he would probably be in Cao Ying and his heart in Han, and it would be meaningless at all.

The purpose of setting up a banquet now is to find out the bottom line, probe into the other party's mind, and see if there is a possibility of subduing him.

"Come on, let me toast you a glass." Lin Yifan poured a glass of wine for Ye Hongyu himself, picked it up, and said with a smile on his face.

"Don't dare, it should be my lord." Ye Hongyu picked up the wine glass in fear, and said hastily.

After drinking, Lin Yifan poured another full bottle of wine for him, and said with a smile while pouring, "Yesterday, sir, you really did a great job. The sentence that the common people moved to each other almost caused our generals in Hengshan to fight."

"Here, I'm just doing my best to help you out. If you make your lord unhappy, it's really a death penalty." Ye Hongyu shuddered slightly and forced a smile.

"Hehe, you don't need to be afraid, sir. I don't mean to blame you. On the contrary, I really admire you. I wish I could get help from you." Lin Yifan said, looking at him with piercing eyes, looking forward to the future. The meaning is clear.

Ye Hongyu glanced at him slightly, and couldn't help feeling a little sentimental in his heart, but Li Yuan was kind to himself, how could he betray the lord and turn to the enemy? "Your Excellency's gesture of love, I am very grateful. However, my Lord has kindness to me, and I really can't bear to abandon it. I hope you will forgive me."

"Oh, it's such a pity. With Mr.'s talent, Li Yuan is lucky to have it." Lin Yifan sighed, regretful and envious.

Ye Hongyu lowered his head slightly, "Your Excellency praised me so much, I really dare not take it."

"Okay, then let's not talk about this." Seeing that Ye Hongyu didn't have the intention to take refuge in himself, Lin Yifan didn't force it anymore, come on, let's have another drink. "

After drinking the second glass of wine, Lin Yifan fiddled with the wine glass, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Ye Hongyu, and said seriously: "Sir, since the Golden Werewolf went south last year, the situation in the world has changed drastically. Killed into a sea of ​​blood. Then the Western Golden Werewolf raided the grassland, directly hitting the Golden Werewolf hinterland, forcing the Golden Werewolf to retreat northward. At the same time, Tianyun Guoming was conquering Leizhou in the east, but in fact, he was attacking Shazhou in the north, intending to occupy Shazhou and Wang Anhua. However, it was attacked by the Eternal Kingdom of God behind it, causing the country's people to suffer. In the north of the empire, since the Golden Werewolf retreated, the heroes rose, and the three states in the north were no longer under the control of the empire; while in Haizhou in the south, King Jinghai raised the flag of rebellion and refused to accept the new emperor. Orthodox, self-proclaimed emperor. In less than half a year, the general situation of the world has been turned upside down, the prospects are confusing, and the situation is unpredictable. I don’t know what you think about this, sir?"

"This?" Ye Hongyu frowned slightly, full of worries. At the same time, he was deeply shocked by Lin Yifan's long-term gaze.Even Li Yuan, what he was thinking at this moment was how to consolidate the territory and how to capture Huazhou.Don't think about the changes in the world situation at all, so as to adapt to the development of the situation and adopt strategies tailored to local conditions.Their eyes focused on the square inch, but this Master Lin has already set his sights on the world.Comparing the two, Mr. Lin still has the attitude of a wise master.

"Sir, you don't need to worry about it. Let's treat it as close friends and talk freely about the affairs of the world. It has nothing to do with our positions." Lin Yifan couldn't help smiling when he saw that he hesitated to speak, obviously hesitant.

"Since that's the case, let's try to talk about it." Ye Hongyu took a deep breath. Some words, some ambitions, have already been brewing to the climax at this moment.It's just that Li Yuan is not interested in the world at all, all he cares about is the survival of the family. "My lord, Fang has entered into troubled times today. The starting point is after the Golden Werewolves went south. Because the Golden Werewolves raged in the three northern states, all the northern borders of the empire fell, and countless people died tragically. Hundreds of years of accumulation The wealth of the country was wiped out, and the original stable order disappeared. It is lamentable that the hundreds of thousands of troops of the empire gathered in the capital, did not dare to take a step north, and sat and watched the lives and deaths of the people in northern Xinjiang. Because of this, the influence of the empire in northern Xinjiang is greatly Attenuation. So that after the golden werewolf retreated, the heroes could rise one after another in the northern border. Originally, the golden werewolf retreated to the north, which was the time to regain the northern border and bring it back under the control of the empire. But at this moment, the former emperor died, and the capital was at war. In order to compete for the big position, the princes actually sit and watch the heroes continue to grow. Even if the Tianyun Kingdom invades later, the court will not be able to take care of it. If it is not for the Eternal God Kingdom's sneak attack from behind, it is unknown that the empire fell to Tianyun. Even today, the imperial court wants to take the lead in pacifying King Jinghai, and has no time to look north, so that after a series of mergers, the northern heroes have begun to stabilize and strengthen their ruling area."

"Oh, sir, do you think our heroes from all walks of life in northern Xinjiang can really resist the imperial army?" Lin Yifan frowned slightly, expressing his concerns.

"Hehe, it's really rare for your lord to have such concerns." Ye Hongyu looked at him, nodded and smiled, "The northern border is like a piece of loose sand, and the annexation of various forces is extremely tragic. If the imperial army goes north in one fell swoop, the heroes of the northern border will However, it is as vulnerable as a chicken and a dog. However, the focus of the court is not on this now, so we can have a period of respite. Therefore, I believe that the life and death of our heroes in the northern border will fall on the king of Jinghai in the south. I hope he Being able to severely damage the imperial army in one fell swoop will relieve our danger."

"Mr.'s words are justified, and the situation is indeed as it is." Lin Yifan nodded approvingly, and sighed, "However, it is unwise to pin our fate on others. Could it be that none of our heroes in northern Xinjiang can resist the imperial army ?"

"Naturally, it's impossible to rely on one person's strength alone. Unless everyone's strength is gathered and united to fight against the imperial court, there will be strength." Ye Hongyu shook his head and smiled wryly, "However, it's impossible at all, it's too difficult."

"Union?" Lin Yifan also shook his head and said with a sneer, "Let a group of people with hatred and different ideas be pinched together. I'm afraid that before the court comes to fight, our own people will have internal turmoil."

"That's right, it's said to be a group of heroes, but in fact most of them are reckless. How can they consider the overall situation and the issue of profit and loss. In the northern border, there are only a few who can be called heroes." Ye Hongyu said face-to-face. With a look of contempt, he said disapprovingly.

"Oh. Mr. I don't know, who in the northern border can be called a hero?" Lin Yifan was very interested when he heard the words, and hurriedly asked.

"Well, the one who can be called a hero is naturally an adult." Ye Hongyu glanced at Lin Yifan carefully, and laughed.

"Oh, sir, you're just being perfunctory." Lin Yifan put down his wine glass, looked at Ye Hongyu, and shook his head.

"Don't dare, what I say is definitely not perfunctory." Ye Hongyu looked at him calmly, with a flash of admiration in his eyes, "If it weren't for the fact that your army went south to demonstrate this time, I would never have thought that there would be hidden dangers in northern Xinjiang." Such a powerful force. I heard that Hengshan was just a small county outside the Polang Pass before. Since you took office last year, my lord, Hengshan is no longer the same as before. Then, after experiencing the Golden Werewolf Rebellion, Hengshan began to grow stronger. I heard that the Golden Werewolf suffered a lot from you, and the Polangguan Pass was taken back because of you. Could it be that the development of Hengshan to such a degree has nothing to do with your lord? Is it not enough for adults to be called heroes?"

"Do you think that Mr. Hengshan knows me quite well?" Although Lin Yifan knew that there was some compliment in what he said, he couldn't help but feel secretly proud.Then he smiled and said, "However, the information you have received, sir, is somewhat outdated. Our Hengshan Army not only blocked the attack of the Golden Werewolves, but also wiped out nearly ten thousand Golden Werewolves and ten thousand newly attached troops. At the beginning of the year, we had already Going north to the grassland, regaining Xiazhou, the thousand-year-old hometown, and blocking the Golden Werewolf to the north of Xiayang Mountain."

"What? Xiazhou?" Ye Hongyu stood up in shock, and the wine glass fell on the table, spilling a piece of wine. "You, you took Xiazhou, the Xiazhou that was lost thousands of years ago?"

 As an aside, among the hundreds of schools of thought in the Warring States Period in China, which one do book lovers like?My personal favorite is Mohism, followed by Legalism.Regarding Confucianism, I don't like it, but I don't completely deny it.
