In the main tent of the Central Army of the Youji Allied Forces, Lu Yao smiled bitterly and shook his head, while Li Yun suddenly became angry. He glared at Lu Yao angrily, and was about to say something, but stopped talking, turned around and paced back and forth in front of his seat. There was silence in the tent, except for Li Yun's heavy breathing and footsteps that echoed endlessly. Dozens of generals, wearing helmets and armor, holding swords and swords, were standing on both sides. They were holding their breath and waiting for the commander to issue military orders, but at this time there was also some commotion. Some of them were paying close attention to the actions of Pingbei General Lu Yao and Yangwu General Li Yun; some were looking at the generals on the opposite side, and occasionally sneered a few times; some were looking around with panic on their faces. Finally, someone who was really ignorant lowered his voice and asked his colleagues: "General Lu is putting the Donghai King's envoy under house arrest, trying to monopolize the power of King Qin? What is going on?" The colleagues hurriedly winked, but at last this guy was not stupid, and he quickly lowered his eyes. He turned himself into a clay sculpture and stood still. Since the establishment of the strategy of the two armies joining forces to attack the king in the south, military meetings attended by the coaches of both sides have been held more than once, but the atmosphere has never been as solemn as this moment. This situation was beyond everyone's expectation. Lu Yao and Li Yun both came from the Bingzhou Army. During the days of fierce fighting with the Xiongnu and Han Dynasty, they fought side by side countless times. There are even vivid rumors that Li Yun was one of the witnesses of Lu Yao's chance encounter with the daughter of the King of Donghai and the master of Jingling. Later, Bingzhou was defeated, and the two men joined hands to fight against the Hebei bandits in Yecheng, and beheaded the giant bandit Jisang. With this great achievement, Lu Yao gradually broke away from the Jinyang military system of Yue Shigong. Li Yun also relied on this to gain strength and gradually became the leader of the generals in Jizhou. Not only do the coaches of both sides have a deep connection, but the key generals of the two armies also have close ties with each other. Take the Youzhou Army as an example: generals such as Xue Tong and Shen Jin, as well as the begging generals in Jizhou, were once colleagues in the army. Rising stars in the army such as Ni Yi, Jiang Li, etc. were originally assigned to Lu Yao by Li Yun. Liu Xia, he was from a wealthy family in Yiyang, Guangping, and was truly from the Cavalry Governor of Jizhou. Because of this, although there were inevitably some minor conflicts and frictions between the two armies as they marched south hand in hand, those with clear minds above the middle-level generals and colonels did not regard it as a major event. It is inevitable that lips and teeth will bump into each other, but how can the situation of lips and teeth being dependent on each other be easily changed? But who would have thought that this situation seems to be about to change. The source of the change is actually the coaches of the two armies who have always cooperated closely! After a while, Lu Yao slowed down his tone again and said sincerely: "Brother Chongde, this matter is not trivial and is not suitable for discussion in public. We might as well" Before he finished speaking, Li Yun raised his hand to signal that the Jizhou Army generals all stood up and saluted. , and then it went out like a tide. Li Yun turned around and stared at Lu Yao: "How?" "" This move completely stunned Lu Yao. He pressed his face with both hands, showing a rare tired look. After a while, he nodded slightly, and the generals of the Youzhou Army also quickly exited the tent. Only Li Yun and him were left in the entire tent. Li Yun stared at the last person exiting the big tent, closed the heavy curtain, and immediately returned to sit down. He supported the table with a broad elbow and leaned slightly towards Lu Yao: "In this way, you and I can always be honest with each other, right? Daoming, I am still the envoy who asked His Highness the King of the East China Sea. "Brother Zhongde" Lu Yao wanted to say something, but Li Yun suddenly waved his hand and stopped him with a powerful gesture. Such an action is almost rude. Li Yun immediately realized that his words and actions were irritable when he was angry, which was not his intention. He sighed and said in as soft a tone as possible: "Daoming, you and I have been colleagues for many years and know each other well. As early as when we were in Bingzhou, I knew that you had a great talent that could soar into the sky. That day, a man in the Taihang Mountains Yes, I think it can be regarded as a small friendship with Dao Ming. When I was in Yecheng, I invited Dao Ming to submit as a beggar deputy commander. Although it was presumptuous, it was all out of goodwill that Dao Ming wanted to go to Daijun. I will let you choose to beg for help. When Daoming raises his troops to go south, I will lead the Jizhou Army to help. After finishing the drink, he gently knocked the tea cup on the table: "Why are you treating me so poorly? Could it be that what I asked for is too much?" At this point, he found that Lu Yao actually He looked a little distracted, and couldn't help but feel angry again: "It's clear, it's clear!" Lu Yao listened to the noise in his ears, and suddenly felt that Li Yun in front of him was a little strange. The image of the shrewd and capable officers in the Bingzhou Army in the past seemed to have disappeared, and the image of the beggar leader who was still tenacious despite adversity seemed to have disappeared, leaving only a bureaucrat. However, Lu Yao was very familiar with the look in his eyes that was full of greed and desire. He had seen it with the noble and high-ranking officials in Luoyang, he had seen it with the corrupt officials in Dongying Gongjun Mansion in Bingzhou, and he had even seen it?I have seen it in those invincible officers and generals of the Jin Dynasty. In a daze, he seemed to be in the tent of Bingzhou Dongying Gong again. At the moment when Daling was defeated, or earlier, he was still young, and at the moment when Shihenggong led a powerful army that he had not seen for decades, he was defeated at Luyuan in Luoyang. At that time, wasn't he surrounded by such colleagues? He shook his head to eliminate these random thoughts from his mind. In any case, Li Yun is still one of the few outstanding generals in the imperial court, and the strength of the Youji Allied Forces far exceeds that of the Bingzhou Army. At the moment, we really need to have a frank talk with Li Yun and do our best to eliminate his doubts. "Brother Chongde, if you say that I put the Donghai King's envoy under house arrest and deliberately controlled His Highness the Donghai King's communication channels, this is absolutely not true." Li Yun was overjoyed. As long as Lu Yao is willing to discuss things head-on, everything can be discussed. He disliked that the distance between their seats was still too far, so he simply stood up, personally lifted the desk table, placed it opposite Lu Yao, and sat down again. "The two armies of Youji and Hebei are from the same water and roots. What can be hidden from each other? I knew it the day after the Imperial Academy Lu Jijiu arrived. Daoming, under house arrest, that is me, Li Yun That's wrong. I guess you are relatives of the Lu family in Wu County, so you naturally have the same idea. The King of Donghai uses Daoming's relatives as envoys, and he must pay more attention to the Youzhou Army than the Jizhou Army. However, I have made this point several times in the past few days. It¡¯s always a fact that you don¡¯t get it when you ask for it, right?¡± Lu Yao remained silent. Li Yun sighed heavily: "His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea, the Commander-in-Chief of Yanyu Division Jiyou and the Six Prefectures, I, Li Yun, am the leader of the generals in Jizhou, why can't I meet that Lu Daoyan?" "Because Lu Daoyan is not the envoy of His Highness the King of the East China Sea." "Even if Daoming wants me to accept the introduction, that's fine, but what?" Li Yun said a few more words before realizing what Lu Yao meant, and suddenly exclaimed. "Lu Daoyan is not the envoy of His Highness the King of the East China Sea. He was ordered by Shi Le to come to discuss with me the issue of a strike between the two families. This fact is shocking, and it is even more likely to be suspected of treason. He may be criticized by the Qing Dynasty. , so I tried my best to avoid external rumors. The misunderstanding caused by Brother Zhongde was entirely due to my poor thinking. Please forgive me, Brother Wanwang." Lu Yao bowed slightly to Li Yun: "The Lu family in Jiangdong is Soochow. The surviving members of this dynasty have always been in trepidation, and we hope that Brother Zhongde will preserve the reputation of our Lu family and not talk about it to others. " "Ah," Li Yun was shocked by the sudden news. He was speechless and made no sense. Sigh. After a long time, he asked in a dry tone: "There is no messenger from the King of East China Sea?" "There is no messenger from the King of East China Sea. As the current war situation shows, the degree of incompetence of the King of East China Sea is far beyond your imagination. In the shogunate , There are neither loyal and brave soldiers who are accustomed to fighting, nor capable civil servants who dare to take risks to send messages. " "The thieves and bandits in the Central Plains" "Firstly, Shi Le was ambitious and had no intention of being a pioneer for the Huns and Han Kingdom. Secondly, the Central Plains had been war-torn for a long time. The soldiers and the people were scattered, and the treasury was empty. If the fighting continued, the army would have nothing to eat. So he sent people to propose. It's a good thing to fight in Luoyang. However, Shi Le is fierce and cunning, so he will have to fight first before talking about the next step. "Is this so?" Li Yun murmured to himself. "Brother Zhongde, you should know that Lu Daoming is not a pretentious person. If you want to be honest with me, I will be honest with you." Lu Yao looked at Li Yun calmly: "If brother doesn't believe it, you can also call Lu Jun and ask him face to face. "It's not urgent." Li Yun shook his head, stood up, and said with a confused expression, "Daoming, I'm confused, so I'm afraid I won't get what I want with my words today." "That's fine."
