Chapter 89: Winning (8)
Shrill cries echoed through the great tabernacle, with twelve points of misery and twelve parts of madness.
As a veteran soldier, what Li Yun often heard in the military was the low roar suppressed in his chest to explode his strength, the gasp inspired by pain in the ferocious killing, and the roar that had been suppressed by the fierce military regulations for so long that it could only completely burst out between life and death, and it was by no means this kind of ghost crying wolf howl like wagging his tail and begging for mercy. Such a cry in vain exposes the cowardice of the person who started the voice, and will only arouse the contempt of a warrior like Li Yun.
Is this guy really the messenger of the King of the East China Sea?
When Li Yun met with the king of the East China Sea last year, the shogunate still had hundreds of thousands of troops in the Central Plains, and his reputation was prestigious. And the upper and lower bureaucrats of the shogunate are also high-spirited, as if the world can be determined by raising their hands, and Yidi is not enough to be peaceful. What he saw and heard at that time is still deeply in Li Yun's mind. Li Yun really couldn't imagine that one of those officials was crying in front of him at this moment.
He frowned as he stared at the yelling figure in the corner of the tent, barely able to maintain the respectful expression that had been brewed so hard. He strode forward, trying to say something to the man, but the heavy steps provoked an even stronger reaction from the other man.
The man held his head in his hands, curled up into the depths of the dimly lit corner, and continued to scream, "Ahh......h Spare your life, spare your life, don't kill me! ”
Damn it...... Is this guy scared crazy? What did I do to scare him like this? What can be accomplished with such waste?
Li Yun shook his head, forcing himself to suppress the irritability in his heart. He half-squatted down, slowly approached the panicked guy, and said slowly in his most kind tone: "I am Li Yun, the general of Yangwu, not a thief!" Your Excellency need not panic......"
One of his subordinates approached flatteringly, lowering the torch in his hand slightly. The dancing light made Li Yun see clearly that the man's face was covered by scattered hair.
This pale and puffy face looks familiar......
Li Yun let out a muffled exclamation. His body stiffened suddenly, and he took a step back and then a step back in a very uncoordinated position. Seeing that he was about to lose his balance, he subconsciously reached out and touched the ground and straightened his waist.
"General?" Several of them never knew what was going on, and they approached one after another. There are especially vigilant ones, and even have drawn knives in their hands.
The crunch of the long knife coming out of its sheath caught someone's attention. Then the screams that echoed in the tent rose a little: "Help! Help me! Ahh ”
The incessant noise and the shocking discovery made Li Yun's forehead tendons bulge, almost dizzy. He waved his hand to the servants again and again, and shouted, "I'm fine, you guys go out first." ”
Several servants looked at each other, and when they were about to say something, Li Yun shouted again: "Get out!" ”
Watching the tent being lifted and falling again, Li Yun turned around, bowed down cautiously, and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness?" Your Highness? ”
Li Yun, as the commander of the Jizhou Army and the general of Yangwu, has tens of thousands of lives in his hands, and he is also very majestic on weekdays. But his tone at the moment was unusually soft, and even a little flattering...... Because the frightened bird in front of him is clearly the No. 1 minister today, the official worships the prime minister, the leader of Yanzhou, the governor of Yanyu, Ji You, and the military of the six states Sima Yue!
Originally...... There really is no so-called envoy of the king of the East China Sea, and the one who is in the Youzhou army is Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea himself. Lu Daoming, Lu Daoming, the scheming is too deep!
Although the shogunate army fled like pigs and sheep all over the mountains, and although Yanzhou, which was the foundation, had been beaten to pieces by the thieves, Li Yun would never look down on the king of the East China Sea because of this.
If the power of the King of the East China Sea is compared to a big tripod, as long as the position of the King of the East China Sea among the kings of the clan is still important, and the political power in the court is still so large that it covers the sky and the sun, then two of the three tripods are intact. Although the strength of the military is not enough, if it can be made up as soon as possible, the big ding will still be stable and stable, and there is no danger of overturning.
Lu Daoming is obviously interested in this prestigious position. If he becomes one of the pillars that support the shogunate of the King of the East Sea, the benefits he will obtain are simply immeasurable!
How can such benefits be taken by Lu Daoming alone? Even if he is the son-in-law of the King of the East China Sea, he can't do it! At this moment, I am about to let His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea know my Li Yun's sincere intentions, and also let him see the strength and determination of the Jizhou Army!
In the face of Li Yun's gentle inquiry, the King of the East China Sea showed a blank look, and muttered a few words in his mouth, not knowing what it meant.
"Your Highness, don't be alarmed!" Li Yun hurriedly said respectfully: "The subordinate is Li Yun, a general of Yangwu who was stationed in Guangzong under the order of the king. The headquarters of the Pingbei General Lu Yao is our friendly army. ”
Li Yun is a pure martial artist, he doesn't have a three-inch tongue, let alone a skyscraper. But he has always been thoughtful, and he has a lot of experience in officialdom, so he clearly understands the words:
First, it is clear that he has long been acting on the orders of the king, and he is an old subordinate of the king of the East China Sea, and a real family member. The two also showed that they had 50,000 soldiers, and their strength was enough to become a powerful arm of the king of the East China Sea. The three even pointed out the relationship between the two armies, and urged the king of the East China Sea not to have any pressure when he was trying to win him over.
It's a pity that I didn't get any response when I said it. The King of the East China Sea raised his head in a daze, his eyes met Li Yun's eager gaze in a trance, and after a long time, a wisp of saliva flowed from his face...... He fell asleep.
What is this? Well? How so? Is there a problem with him or is there a problem with me? What the hell am I going to do? This situation made Li Yun completely incomprehensible. He only felt a tightness in his chest, and he almost had to thump hard to get his breath.
After a while, Li Yun cheered up again. The people rushed into the camp where the East Sea King was located with great fanfare, and Lu Daoming would react at any time. The time for him to talk calmly is fleeting, and he can't waste half a minute. Even if the situation of the King of the East China Sea is abnormal, this time he has to force a result!
Thinking of this, Li Yun raised his hand and clasped the shoulders of the East Sea King, and shook it vigorously: "Your Highness! Your Highness! Wake up......"
Although Li Yun is not known for his bravery, the strength of his hands that he has trained over the years is not trivial, and after a few shakes, the king of the East China Sea woke up. Then there was a frenzied and shrill scream from the tent: "Don't kill me!" Spare your life! Ahh Help me! Who's going to save me!! ”
All right...... No matter how you calculate, you can't figure out that the King of the East China Sea has become like this...... This time, I'm afraid it's going to get worse. This scream was like a curse of a demon, instantly draining all of Li Yun's energy. He sighed and took two steps back, slowly sitting down.
Although the lights inside the tent were bright, Li Yun's eyes were dark. There was a muffled sound, and it turned out that his hands and feet were weak, and he knocked over the desk behind him.
A long wind rose and swept the tabernacle violently, causing the sand and gravel to roll on the ground.
In the distance, the half-hidden gate of the fortress closed suddenly, and the sound of clanging armor came from all directions. Countless figures lined up like a long line, rapidly approaching along the walls on the north and south sides; Countless heavily armored samurai lifted the planks covered in thin earth and leaped out of the tunnels beneath the tents in various places.
Bundles of pine torches were lit, crimson flames lit up the night sky, and the flickering cold light of the swords, spears, and halberds of the forest was denser than the stars. Finally, there was a low creaking sound, indicating that hundreds of strong crossbows were wound and tightened one by one.
"Formation! Formation! ”
"Don't panic, block the camp gate!"
"What about the general? Where is the general? ”
The officers and men of the Jizhou Army were at a loss and made a mess. They are all brave and good at fighting, and they will not be intimidated by the quick reaction of the Youzhou Army and the scale of the troops used. What shocked them was that the Youzhou Army had already prepared!
Through the rolling tabernacle, Li Yun witnessed all this. He clenched his fists expressionlessly, and got up to look at the trembling King of the East Sea. At this moment, perhaps only by mastering the King of the East China Sea can he win the bargaining chips of the tongue, even if it is the delirious King of the East China Sea!
Unfortunately, this idea can only be fleeting. Before he took a step, the huge screen on the inside of the tent was violently pushed down, and surrounded by dozens of armor soldiers, Lu Yao's light robe slowly appeared in front of Li Yun's eyes.
