"This time, it can be considered that Guo Zhanshan was the first to notify Hong Min of his attack..."
"Forget it, just give him the stuff to repay him the favor!"
After thinking for a while, Ye Mingsheng made a decision and said with a smile:
When Ye Tie heard this, his face suddenly lit up with joy, he hugged his fist towards Ye Mingsheng and said happily:
"On behalf of Brother Guo, I would like to thank the young master for the reward!"
"It doesn't matter!"
Ye Mingsheng said with a smile:
After receiving Ye Mingsheng's promise, Ye Tie left happily. Looking at Ye Tie's leaving back, Ye Mingsheng shook his head slightly.
Ye Tie has always worked hard and never complained about the things he told him. He has never asked for anything from himself. Now that he has spoken this time, he has to give him some face.
What's more, Ye Mingsheng was already satisfied with being able to dig out this thousand, seven hundred taels of silver from Hong Min, the bandit leader.
As for the things Hong Min hid in the secret warehouse, although he didn't see what they were, he thought that even a bandit wouldn't have any good things, so he just gave them to Guo Zhanshan.
We can take this opportunity to test out what Guo Zhanshan is up to?
Ever since he last heard Ye Tie talk about Guo Zhanshan and went to see him personally, Ye Mingsheng realized something was wrong...
Although Ye Tie had been with Guo Zhanshan for a while in the green forest, and the two were old acquaintances, and the meeting between the two could be said to be a reminiscence of old times, but in Ye Mingsheng's view, this was not enough for Guo Zhanshan, a bandit leader, to take such a big risk. Risk, come to Yejia Village to find Ye Tie in person.
After all, Yejiacun is under his control. As long as Guo Zhanshan's whereabouts are exposed, or if Ye Tie has other ideas, he will be trapped in Yejiacun and unable to escape!
Ye Mingsheng didn't believe that an old bandit who had been in the green forest for most of his life would be so impulsive and take such big risks just to reminisce with his old tribe!
With such an idea, Ye Mingsheng carefully considered Guo Zhanshan's motives and found that his real purpose of meeting Ye Tie in person was most likely not as simple as reminiscing about old times.
It is very possible that Guo Zhanshan was just using the guise of reminiscing about the past, but he actually planned to use Ye Tie's mouth to convey the news of Hong Min's attack to him!
Although there is no evidence to prove his idea, the more Ye Mingsheng thinks about it, the more he feels that this possibility is very high.
And if things are really as he suspected, then Guo Zhanshan's motivation for doing this is very interesting!
················
················
While Ye Mingsheng was in the Ye Mansion, he was giving rewards based on his merits, holding a big banquet, and winning people's hearts.
In a small courtyard in Fengshan County, He Jingyun, who had excused himself from the banquet due to physical discomfort, was drinking and exchanging glasses with more than a dozen former subordinates.
Although it is also a meal, compared to Ye Mingsheng's place, which has big fish, meat, wine and delicacies, although He Jingyun's place has a lot of food, it is undoubtedly much shabby. They are all ordinary big pot dishes, and the wine is only the most. Ordinary yaki knife········
Sitting on the right side of He Jingyun is a strong man who is eight feet tall, with a leopard head and eyes, a voice like a bell, and fists as big as sandbags. This strong man's name is Guan Fei, who was once a captain under He Jingyun and fought in He is extremely brave and highly respected by He Jingyun.
However, because He Jingyun was later transferred, Guan Fei was not influenced by his successors because of his straightforward personality, and he could not control his mouth and said some inappropriate things. After working for so many years, he made countless military exploits, but his official position was not He never moved anywhere and his life was very unsatisfactory.
After He Jingyun came back this time, he immediately recruited Guan Fei. Guan Fei did not hesitate to resign and follow He Jingyun to Liaoyang.
Under the persuasion of his colleagues, Guan Fei drank a few more glasses of wine, and his old habit relapsed. He burped and drunkenly asked He Jingyun:
"Sir, tell me, does this boy Ye Mingsheng not trust our brothers?"
Before Guan Fei finished speaking, the smile on He Jingyun's face gradually disappeared. He picked up the wine glass with his right hand and took a sip.
For a second, the wine table was very lively with everyone pushing glasses and changing glasses. Now it suddenly became quiet. For a moment, everyone's eyes were more or less focused on He Jingyun, who was sitting on the main seat.
These more than ten former members were all He Jingyun's confidants back then. Because of He Jingyun's loss of power, their lives and official careers have been relatively bumpy in recent years.
Otherwise, as soon as he heard He Jingyun's call, he wouldn't have left his family and career to come to a bitter and cold place like Liaoyang.
When everyone came to Liaoyang, they all had one idea in their minds, that is, to do something in their career, to get ahead, and to make up for the lost time!
But unfortunately, although their thoughts are good and their calculations are ringing, in fact, things often backfire as they imagined...
They expected that Ye Mingsheng, who had two or three big cats and kittens under his command, would rely heavily on the famous He Jingyun, and then let He Jingyun control the military power.
But he never expected that Ye Mingsheng would let Lin Huaiwu and Ye Tie be in charge of recruiting troops, and directly take He Jingyun and the people around him with him. Although they seemed to be very valued in this way, they were treated very well. , but they did not let them be tainted with military power at all.
Everyone didn't think too much about it before, they just thought that Ye Mingsheng respected He Jingyun and wouldn't let him touch the painful and tiring job of recruiting soldiers.
But this time in the battle against Hong Min, when He Jingyun took the initiative to fight, Ye Mingsheng chose Yuan Song in the end. Although Ye Mingsheng gave a reasonable explanation, it was hard to kill a chicken with a bull's knives, but everyone still had some doubts. worried.
Seeing that He Jingyun was silent and thinking to himself, the atmosphere at the banquet was a bit awkward. Xun Ke, a middle-aged man of moderate stature and dignified appearance sitting on the left side of He Jingyun, picked up his wine glass, stood up and said with a smile:
"Ye Mingsheng doesn't trust us? Who can he trust?"
"Do you trust that idiot Lin Huaiwu? Or that mediocre Yuan Song? Or that Chen Chuanwu who only has brute strength?"
"I was by your side today, but I heard with my own ears that Ye Mingsheng personally promised that we, Mr. He, would take control of the overall situation!"
"Lin Huaiwu and Ye Tie have recruited thousands of soldiers during this period. The next step is to train the soldiers!"
At this point, Xun Ke paused, looked around at everyone present, and then said boldly:
"When it comes to military training, everyone in the Zhou Dynasty knows how powerful our Lord He is?"
"How many people in this world are better than Master He in training troops?"
