At this time, countless brocade guards poured out of the surroundings, some of them were holding crossbows in their hands, and some of them pulled out their sabers and aimed them at the middle of the big sword.

The people who watched the excitement were suddenly frightened by this formation, and they all turned their heads and ran, and in an instant, they ran cleanly.

Hu Dadao's palms have begun to sweat, he is a man of iron, even if he has a strength, he has never seen this kind of formation, he believes that as long as he dares to move, he will immediately be shot by a crossbow arrow and pierce his heart.

Cheng Xiaolian laughed above his head at this time: "Hu Dadao, you still put me down." If they're not careful, you'll be pierced into a sieve. ”

Hu Dadao snorted: "Okay, you call someone again, you are too untrustworthy." Although he said that, he still put Cheng Xiaolian on the ground, although he had a brave spirit, but he was not a stunned person who didn't care about his life.

After Cheng Xiaolian came down, he stood firmly: "Officially acquaintance, I am His Royal Highness Zhu Hetan of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Hu Dadao was stunned there, neither did he salute, nor did he not salute, and his face was a little embarrassed for a while.

Cheng Xiaolian continued: "I heard that a strong man has the ambition to be a captain Chi Gong, although I may not be able to become a Tang Taizong, but I still want a strong man to help me." ”

Hu Dadao immediately asked: "I'm just an ironworker, the two of us are also the first day to meet today, just because of my laughter, His Royal Highness decided to accept me, isn't it a little too rash?" ”

Cheng Xiaolian snorted: "Can an iron striker say that the teacher is the one who preaches the Tao and receives karma to solve doubts?" Besides, I've tried the strong man's hand, the strength is great, and the move is not the trick of the farmer, I think the strong man is either a family heirloom, or a spy sent by the enemy. ”

After saying that, Cheng Xiaolian waited to see Hu Dadao's reaction, Hu Dadao laughed: "Your Highness is quite smart, in just a short time of fighting, I have almost touched my bottom carefully, I do have a family heirloom, but I failed to be a marquis and worship the general, I dare not insult the reputation of my ancestors, if His Highness can trust me, I will follow His Highness, if His Highness can't trust me, then let's break up." ”

Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "You follow me, if you are sent by the enemy, I am sure that you will not harm me." ”

Cheng Xiaolian is very happy today, although he didn't eat well, but he accepted a strong man, although this person's background is unknown, but he still has to think about a good place.

Returning to the mansion, Zhu Fu looked at Cheng Xiaolian with a resentful expression: "Your Highness finally came back, and went out to eat, is the food in the mansion so unpalatable?" ”

Cheng Xiaolian said with a smile: "I said Uncle Fu, the food at home is very delicious, but isn't this street lively." ”

"I didn't eat the stew at noon, and whatever His Highness wants to eat in the evening, I'll just make it for you."

"It doesn't matter, I'm going to go to the academy now, you can decide what you eat, and it's not a big deal."

Cheng Xiaolian really wanted to go to the academy to take a look, and I heard that Mr. Gu Yanwu occasionally felt cold yesterday, no matter what he said, he should always go and take a look.

When he arrived at the academy, Zhang Peng had already found several doctors to surround Gu Yanwu and was persuading him to take the pulse: "I said Mr. Gu, you should quickly let this gentleman take the pulse." ”

Gu Yanwu pursed his lips: "I said you kid, you have hired eight doctors for me in this moment's kung fu, what do you want to do, a little wind and cold, you have to treat me to death, right?" ”

"Oh, Mr. Gu, it's not that you don't know the temper of my Royal Highness, this doctor will always be in the wrong vein, in case this kind of thing happens, Your Highness will have to kill me. One more doctor is a little more certain, so don't shirk it. ”

Gu Yanwu had no choice but to stretch out his hand: "Take the pulse, hurry up, I'm still in a hurry to go back to read." ”

Cheng Xiaolian walked over with a smile: "Mr. Gu, how is your health?" ”

Gu Yanwu stood up suddenly: "Your Highness, you can be regarded as here, look at this kid, what do you think of me, give me a pulse one by one, is it not clear to me if it is cold or not?" ”

Cheng Xiaolian felt the temperature in the room, but it was quite warm, and glanced at Zhang Peng: "I said that this room is quite warm, why did you make Mr. Gu sick?" ”

Before Zhang Peng could speak, Gu Yanwu stood up suddenly: "I can't blame him for this, the moonlight in the courtyard was very good the night before yesterday, I went to take a look, I didn't pay attention to it, I got a little cold, it's fine, just take a few pills." It's Your Highness, you have to pay attention to your body, what are so many doctors doing in this academy, it's better to send them to Your Highness. ”

Cheng Xiaolian smiled and waved his hand: "You guys go down for the time being." Watching the doctors around him leave the room, Cheng Xiaolian sat on a chair on the side, and then laughed: "Mr. Gu, don't worry about me, there are doctors around me, and I came to discuss something with you today." ”

Hearing Cheng Xiaolian say business, Gu Yanwu no longer dwelled on this matter, and quickly cheered up and looked at Cheng Xiaolian: "Your Highness, just say something." ”

Cheng Xiaolian coughed: "Our Daming now occupies the three provinces of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu, of which Sichuan and Shaanxi are rich lands, there should be no problem in raising soldiers, I let Daniel Zhang go to Ningxia, how to go next, and ask Mr. Gu." ”

Gu Yanwu laughed: "Your Highness, you can be regarded as asking the blind question, I can only read in my life, but I won't march to fight, so I should ask others about this war." ”

Cheng Xiaolian stared at Gu Yanwu: "This sentence must be asked to Mr. Gu, where do the people of the world want me to recover next?" ”

To tell the truth, now Cheng Xiaolian has more territory and troops in his hands, and he is much harder to speak, now there are more choices, but he doesn't know how to march, he can fight too many places, from Ningxia to the east and west, from Shaanxi out of Tongguan is Shanxi, and after capturing Shanxi is the Gyeonggi stronghold, or there are Geng Shang coalition forces outside Kuimen, and now it is not impossible to fight them to grab part of the territory of the two lakes, there are many choices, but I don't know how to fight, and what others put forward is tactics, That's why Cheng Xiaolian thought of asking Gu Yanwu.

Gu Yanwu pondered for a while, and said slowly: "I'm not a soldier who understands soldiers, otherwise I wouldn't have been defeated again and again when I opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, so I can only tell you the consequences of fighting these places, and you have to handle the specific things yourself." ”

Saying that, he took a sip of tea: "Of course, the best choice is to attack Shanxi, and then seize the Gyeonggi land, and our Ming Dynasty will immediately shake the world, and then the restoration of the country is just a matter of raising hands." ”
