The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 263

Ye Hongyu narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, thought for a while, and said with a smile, "Master Han's words are ridiculous. If the imperial court regains the northern land, it will take a few more years to recuperate. At that time, hundreds of thousands of troops will go north, and they will be defeated by mere mere wolves." It is really fantastic that the pass can stop the imperial army. Only when the north is still separated, can Hengshan continue to develop. Otherwise, with the population of Hengshan District, how can it survive the imperial court's repeated attacks. What's more, the north of Hengshan is still There is a golden werewolf eyeing him, and if he wants to gain a foothold in this place of the Four Wars, there is no objection."

"Haha, now that the golden werewolf in the north can't take care of themselves, how dare they attack me in Hengshan?" Han Song laughed, looked directly at Ye Hongyu, and said confidently, "Nowadays, the world is in chaos. Falling aside, this has been a sign of the decline of the dynasty since ancient times. Although Hengshan is small, the people's hearts are stable and the soldiers are strong. Even if the imperial court sends hundreds of thousands of troops to fight, what fear do we have in Hengshan?"

Ye Hongyu's face froze slightly, but he soon returned to normal, and said with a light smile, "Lord Han is speaking loudly. As far as Ye knows, Hengshan rose when the Golden Wolf went south, and the time was short. The Xian King’s captives and a large amount of supplies suddenly expanded. But after all, the foundation is not solid, and the people’s hearts are not stable. Although the grassland is in chaos, it cannot last forever. One day, they will still go south to find the bad luck of Hengshan After all, the prairie under our feet is a fertile pasture that the Golden Werewolves cannot part with. And no matter who is in charge of the imperial court, they will not sit idly by in the face of external threats. What's more, as far as Ye knows, this time The Northern Expedition was a conspiracy by Prime Minister Cao to seize military power and establish prestige. Therefore, Prime Minister Cao must go all out to win this Northern Expedition. There is no reason for you and me to be spared. I hope that you adults will take care of the overall situation. Join forces with my Li family to resist the imperial army."

"Haha, Mr. Ye really has a sharp mouth." Lin Yifan put down his wine glass and interjected with a smile, "If you want me to send troops to Hengshan, it's not impossible. But you also know that my foundation in Hengshan is weak. It consumes a lot, I, Hengshan, can't afford it."

"Master Lin was joking. Ye Mou walked all the way, and he saw the Hengshan Mountains criss-crossed, and the roads are full of business travelers. Why do you say that there is not enough money and food?"

"Sir, you only see the surface, but you don't know that the foundation of Hengshan is almost hollowed out." Lin Yifan smiled wryly and shook his head, "There are nearly a million people in Hengshan, and the food rationing system is still in place. Now the seized supplies are almost used up. After all, it was hard to survive until the autumn harvest. More than half of the wheat harvested this year will be used for the rations of the people in the coming year, and the rest can be used to supply the army. This is why I can only maintain [-] soldiers and horses in Hengshan. It is really hopeless Food is available."

Ye Hongyu gritted his teeth, but in his heart he didn't believe what Lin Yifan said at all, but since the other party had already started to call him poor, it was useless to force him no matter what, it seemed that it was impossible for him not to pay some price. "Lord Lin, since this is the case, our Li family is willing to help one-third of the money and food for sending troops, but we have one condition, Hengshan must send [-] troops to fight against the enemy in the south, how about it?"

"This?" Lin Yifan hesitated for a while, "Sir, I also know that the Golden Werewolf lies to the north of Hengshan Mountain, and the west of Weiyuan County is adjacent to the Dingxi Army. It is impossible for me to go out with the whole army and ignore it. This time Going south, I can only send [-] troops in Hengshan."

"Twenty thousand? Lord Lin, isn't that too little?" Ye Hongyu frowned, and said dissatisfiedly, "Even those forces in Anzhou that only occupy half a county can summon tens of thousands of troops. There are people in Hengshan One million, is it only [-] troops?"

"Hehe, I, Hengshan, have always adhered to the line of elite soldiers. My 2 men are not comparable to the mobs of other forces." Lin Yifan smiled slightly, and said proudly, "These 2 horses are the cavalry that I, Hengshan, have worked hard to build. Among them are [-] armored cavalry as the main battle elite. Mr. Ye thinks that my [-] cavalry alone may be worth the soldiers and horses of those small forces?"

"Two, [-] cavalry?" Ye Hongyu and the others took a deep breath, their eyes bursting with excitement. With [-] cavalry at their side, let's ask who is the opponent in the field. "Master Lin, you said that you are willing to send [-] cavalry to go south. This, this is great."

"Mr. Ye, I send out cavalry from Hengshan. You know that cavalry is precious. One cavalry consumes as much as three infantry. I think that if I send cavalry from Hengshan, you must bear at least half of the cavalry's money and rations." The corner of Lin Yifan's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a smile, "Otherwise, I, Hengshan, can only send [-] troops, all of whom are temporarily conscripted, and their fighting power is far inferior to that of the cavalry. I wonder which one you would choose?"

"You!" Ye Hongyu's expression changed slightly, and he said anxiously, "Master Lin, at this critical moment of life and death, you are still so short-sighted to worry about such petty gains. In the face of a strong enemy, everyone should fight against the enemy and tide over the difficulties together. How unwise your lord is doing this."

Lin Yifan was unmoved, and smiled coldly: "Because I have cavalry, I will have more cavalry in the future. What the Golden Werewolf can do, can't I, Hengshan, do it?"

Ye Hongyu was startled suddenly, and then remembered that Hengshan won the Xiazhou Grassland and had countless war horses, and with time, he was able to train a large number of cavalry.Moreover, the Li family was intruded into the interior by Hengshan before, and the soldiers were approaching the city. This is a preview of the Hengshan cavalry going south in the future.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel chills all over his body, which further strengthened his determination to take control of Huazhou. The Li family must enter Huazhou as soon as possible, otherwise they would be wiped out by Hengshan sooner or later.

"Lord Lin, in that case, please fulfill your promise to dispatch [-] cavalry, and I will definitely persuade the Patriarch to agree to your terms." Ye Hongyu hurriedly agreed in fear that Lin Yifan would change his mind.

"No problem. Now that this issue has been settled, let's talk about the command of the coalition. I wonder how Patriarch Li plans to arrange the command of the coalition?" Lin Yifan narrowed his eyes and looked at everyone coldly.

"Well, the Patriarch thinks that since my Li family is in front of the enemy and has dispatched the most troops, the command of the coalition forces will naturally be handed over to the Patriarch. I wonder if Mr. Lin has any objections?" Ye Hongyu said hesitantly, looking straight at Lin Yifan wanted to understand his thoughts from it.

"This is what it should mean, and I naturally won't object." Lin Yifan didn't get angry, but nodded calmly, approving Li Yuan's authority. "However, my Hengshan cavalry is different from infantry. The cavalry focuses on maneuvering and waiting for opportunities. If it is under the unified command of the coalition forces, it may affect the combat capability of the cavalry. I think that my Hengshan cavalry will be led by me. Of course In peacetime, the cavalry will be under the unified management of the coalition forces, but once it comes to wartime, the right to command the cavalry must be taken back. This is also to maximize the combat power of the cavalry. After all, the generals in Hengshan who know the cavalry combat best, Don't you think so, sir?"

"This, isn't that reasonable?" Ye Hongyu frowned, "As the saying goes, there are no two suns, and no two masters in the army. Master Lin's doing this will make my lord difficult to be a man."

"Anyway, the command of the cavalry cannot be entrusted to others. If Patriarch Li doesn't want to lose face, then choose the second method. I can dispatch [-] people to listen to Patriarch Li's orders." Lin Yifan snorted coldly, not at all Not willing to compromise.

"How about this, you and I will discuss the conditions one by one, Ye Mou will immediately send someone back to report to the lord, how about letting him make the decision?" Seeing the deadlock, Ye Hongyu had to compromise temporarily, pleading.

"That's the best. I hope Patriarch Li will reply as soon as possible. The period for the imperial court's northern conquest is not long." Lin Yifan chuckled, "We in Hengshan are not in a hurry."

Therefore, the two parties put their own requirements and conditions on the table and negotiated one by one.Finally, the results achieved and the issues that could not be negotiated are summarized.Ye Hongyu immediately called an attendant, handed the letter to him, and he hurriedly sent it to Jing'an City.

　Why do I feel that the more I write, the more trivial it becomes, and the plot develops a bit slowly?
