Chapter 65: The Rotten Rat (3)
Li Yun looked at Lu Yao in shock, only to feel that the young general's eyes were extremely deep and difficult to see. In the eyes of this person, there is no secret about all the calculations hidden in his heart.
After a while, Li Yun said with a wry smile: "In the past, when I was in Bingzhou, I felt that Daoming Qingjian was knowledgeable, which was unusual and comparable. After months of not seeing each other, you are getting more and more ...... Alas, more and more shrewd......" He stomped his foot, suddenly became excited, and said loudly: "Daoming, are you willing to stay in Hebei to help me?" ”
"What?" This proposal was really something that Lu Yao didn't expect at all, and he was stunned for a moment.
Li Yun showed an eager demeanor, and said in a loud voice: "Daoming, I thought about it, you are originally a general of Yamen, I invite Yang Derong and Cai Zini to join me on the table, with Daoming's merits, I will definitely be promoted to a heavy general above the third grade...... Rest assured, you saved Yang Derong's life the day before yesterday, and he has no reason to refuse this matter. ”
Yang Derong is the general of the chariot cavalry, Shi Yangheng, the one who was rescued by Lu Yao when he escaped from the prison city of Wei County. And Cai Zini is engaged in Zhonglang Cai Ke, and in the past, he pleaded with the king of Chengdu to pardon Shiheng Gong, Shilong Gong and other Lu clan children, but Lu Yao has not seen him for many years.
Li Yun thought for a moment and continued: "Of course, we and other martial artists use their forces to do things, and the official position is just a false name. As for the actual position...... If Daoming is willing to condescend, I should treat him as a brother, and I am willing to treat him as the deputy of the whole army, above Tian Zhen, Tian Lan, Bo Sheng and others. In addition, after this battle, I should reorganize the original Yecheng defense army as soon as possible, even if the old and weak are useless, at least 20,000 new horses will be obtained, if Daoming is interested, these 20,000 people can be led by you. That's right, that's right! TD still has the status of a merger state talent at the moment...... In this way, if Daoming intends to rule one side, he can choose any one large county in the begging territory, and I am willing to promote you as the county guard! ”
Li Yun gushed endlessly, said in one breath that he would come down, and finally clapped his hands, staring at Lu Yao with blazing eyes: "How?" ”
Lu Yao took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it again.
This is the second person after Lu Zhi to spare no effort to recruit himself. The defeated soldiers in the past have become the target of others' vigorous recruitment at this moment, which is really a great honor for Lu Yao. In Lu Yao's previous life, it was like a huge leap from a dick who submitted resumes to major recruitment websites to a golden collar who queued up for appointments in major headhunting companies.
But Lu Yao doesn't really think that he is the kind of talent who is captivating at first sight. Lu Zhi's promise was just a gesture that he had to show because of the situation, and Lu Yao never took it seriously. And since Lu Zhi was looking for an opportunity to escape, it was obvious that he had never expected to really be able to cooperate with Lu Yao.
As for Li Yun, his commitment must be much more reliable than Lu Zhi's. This time, the Jisang Shile thieves and thieves made a rebellion, and I don't know how many officials in the land of Sanwei suffered, and countless official positions were vacated. If you get the recommendation of powerful people, it is not difficult to be a general, a county guard, etc.
However, although Li Yun's conditions were very sincere, Lu Yao was not moved.
Lu Yao traveled east this time, and took on the task specially given by Liu Tingshi. When he arrived at Yecheng, he was going to go to northern Xinjiang to participate in the ceremony of Tuoba Xianbei's Danhan Mountain Sacrifice to the Heavens. This action is too important for Li Yun to know. If he misses the major event of merging with the state because he is greedy for Li Yun's solicitation, the township will definitely be ridiculed by the Qing Dynasty. This is a huge blow to his reputation.
It's a shame to say that although Lu Yao is a traverser, he is not good at science and technology that can be learned from things, and he also asks himself if he has any strategy to help the people. When he dreamed back at midnight, he even sighed several times: he came in a hurry and didn't bring his laptop. In this life, all he can rely on is an understanding of the general trend of history. Under the tremendous pressure of the Wuhu chaos and the land of China will turn into a hell on earth, Lu Yao's initial thought was just to save his life. Later, as he gradually gained a foothold in the state, he could talk about the so-called "ambition". And if you want to realize those "ambitions", whether it is to protect the safety of one party, whether it is to respect the king and help the world, or to hit the water waves in the middle to curb the flying boat, it is inseparable from personal fame.
The word fame is illusory, but it has a practical effect.
Prestige is the only way to gain a proper position in the imperial court system; If you have a reputation, you can raise your arms and call for a man of ambition. Not to mention, just look at the three points at the end of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao and Liu Biao's disciples, the talents and ears of the Chinese, but they can stand on one side and rank among the heroes, doesn't they rely on the fame they have accumulated over the years?
From the Battle of Banqiao and the Battle of Jinyang, Lu Yao tried his best, fought for the first, and was born and died again and again, which gradually made him famous for being brave and good at fighting. Later, he was ordered to send envoys to Yecheng and Northern Xinjiang, and Lu Yao also intended to continue to improve his reputation, so as to make more friends with talents, and climb up as soon as possible within the imperial court system to gain greater power. If you lose your hard-won good reputation because you are greedy for immediate gains, then your hard work and efforts for this will not be in vain. Such a desperate move, Lu Yao really didn't dare or had no intention of doing it.
Moreover, he is also in a critical situation, Yue Shigong is more and more frustrated, and he is in front of the enemy, showing his heroic spirit; However, Li Yun was satisfied with recovering Yecheng and was busy with his own calculations. How clever is this behavior compared to Sima Teng? This made it difficult for Lu Yao to look down on him. Even if Li Yun treated him as a second-in-command, Lu Yao was unwilling to stoop to be his subordinate.
Lu Yao was silent for a moment, lifted his robe, and saluted Li Yun solemnly.
Li Yun was surprised and stretched out his hand to help, but heard Lu Yao say: "Brother Chongde is so loving, and he must remember it in his heart." How can I accept the grace of Liu Tingshi Jianba, and see that I am a subordinate official of the state, and Liu Tingshi is to me, and I am the monarch's father. Therefore, I really dare not think of him as ......"
"Oh......" Li Yun delayed his voice in disappointment and responded. His face became a little gray, and he smiled self-deprecatingly: "Also, I, Li Yun, am just a rough man from the army, where can I compare with a handsome man like Yue Shigong, I guess Daoming can't look down on it." I lost my mind about this matter. ”
"I am ashamed to say this." Lu Yao saluted Li Yun again: "Don't hide it, I'm about to say goodbye to the general." Now that the battle in Yecheng has come to an end, it is useless to stay without anyone else. Moreover, Yue Shigong had another task to explain before. If there is nothing else important, we plan to leave Yecheng tomorrow. ”
"Oh, yes......" Li Yun was obviously a little unable to keep up.
Seeing him like this, Lu Yao was a little unbearable. Li Yun is not a rare heroic figure, and his selfishness is a little heavier, but he treats the people around him with true affection, otherwise tens of thousands of people will not be able to return. His invitation is indeed sincere, such a person may not be suitable for his superiors, but at least he is a good comrade-in-arms.
Lu Yao took a step forward and said solemnly to Li Yun: "Brother Chongde, although the Shile thieves have retreated, they are holding the wealthy people of Yecheng hostage, and their strength has increased greatly, and they will make a comeback after a little rectification." A few months ago, during the Battle of Jinyang, I fought against Shi Le, and I tried my best to win by luck. This person is well aware of the law of governing the army, and he uses soldiers like an arm to make a finger, and has the style of a famous general...... If time comes, it will be a great disaster, and the general must not ignore it as an ordinary person. ”
Others will despise Shi Le, how can Lu Yao? This Shi Le is the Emperor Gaozu Ming of Later Zhao who finally unified most of the north, "escaped from Guangwu, when he was driven to the Central Plains, and he didn't know who killed the deer"!
Seeing the disapproving look in Li Yun's eyes, he couldn't help but become anxious, and his voice was raised: "At this moment, the thieves have been plundering all night, and they will definitely relax, just concentrate the elite soldiers to pursue, and take them by surprise." It must be known that Nashile is good at controlling the army, so the opportunity at hand is fleeting. If my brother can ......"
"Don't worry......" Li Yun waved his hand, smiling reluctantly, but the meaning of refusal was obvious: "Don't worry too much." As long as there are no other people's constraints, I will fight against the opposition, and even if it is difficult to win completely, I will always have the confidence to maintain the situation. ”
Lu Yao immediately understood Li Yun's thoughts. Since he made it clear that he had no intention of joining hands with him, whether it was from the perspective of self-esteem or authority, Li Yun would never allow himself to say more about the situation in Wei County. If he wants to persuade Li Yun to do anything, he is afraid that it will backfire. He sighed, hesitated a few times, and had to give up.
Since it came to this point, both of them felt uneasy for a while.
Lu Yao was silent for a while, said a few words, and then left.

Sorry for the delay. Not much to say, there will be a change in an hour.
