"Hahaha!"
Ning Fan laughed loudly and said: "In today's world, there are sages and virtuous people who are far more talented than others. They have the ambition to conquer all the wastelands and have the heart to swallow up the sun and the moon."
"My army, Yu the Great, has now pointed his sword at the East Huai River, defeating the great Yan, crushing the Southern Barbarians, and looking like a whale swallowing up the whole world!"
"His Royal Highness King Yong is open to all rivers, recruiting talents, and wants to rebuild the mountains and rivers of Huainan."
"Today's imperial court is prosperous, and today's Dayu is like the rising sun."
"Occupying mountains and grass is not the right way after all, and tens of thousands of brothers gather here, it is really difficult to support them. If they return to the court, they will have no worries about food and drink. If they are lucky enough to establish some achievements, they can also honor their ancestors."
"No matter what happens, if you disarm and return to the countryside, the imperial court will provide accommodation for you!"
"This is the original intention of His Highness King Yong. Let me convey it to the heroes. How you decide is entirely up to you!"
Ning Fan's tone was very gentle, his eyes looked around, and he clasped his fists and said: "Although I receive a salary from the imperial court, I have always admired people with loyalty throughout my life. All of you here are my brothers!"
"No matter what his position is in the future, Zhao will never fight with you!"
Ning Fan's tone was very sincere, and he praised His Highness King Yong unstintingly.
There was a hint of emotion on the faces of many leaders, and some of them turned their attention to Yang Zaixing, waiting to see what happened.
Sun Pu, who was on the high platform, looked at Ning Fan with a deep look on his face, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
Yang Zaixing did not look at Ning Fan, but turned to the brothers behind him and said loudly: "Brothers, what Brother Zhao said makes sense. The current court is indeed not stupid, so this can be considered a way out."
"How to choose, I, Yang, respect the ideas of brothers!"
"Brother Yang, we all listen to you. The leader of the village was harmed by villains. Now the brothers have no backbone and are willing to follow you!"
"Yes, Village Leader, you make the decision, brothers will follow you to the death!"
The brothers from the twelve villages expressed their opinions one after another, while the other leaders also showed a hint of hesitation.
"Brother Zhao, are you sure the court will not implicate us?"
"Never will!"
Ning Fan took out a golden token from his arms with a solemn expression, raised it above his head, and said loudly: "Here is the gold medal of King Yong. I, Zhao Zilong, guarantee it with my life. As long as all the brothers accept the recruitment, all guilt will be forgotten!"
"good!"
"I agreed!"
Yang Zaixing expressed his stance directly, walked towards Ning Fan, and said loudly: "Brothers who are willing to accept the imperial court's recruitment, follow me, Yang Zaixing, to build a great career!"
"Brothers who don't want to, see you in the world!"
"I'm willing to follow!"
"I do too!"
One after another, figures moved closer to Yang Zaixing. Ning Fan did not expect that things would progress so smoothly, and he would effortlessly neutralize the tens of thousands of bandits in Wumei Mountain.
No matter what, the overall situation is now decided.
"very good!"
"Mr. Sun, let the three thousand fine armors ambushed in the Lu Palace come out!"
"The general trend has been decided. Don't resist stubbornly."
Ning Fan looked at Sun Pu on the high platform. The latter nodded helplessly and walked into the Lu Palace. Not long after, figures wearing armor walked out of it, dejected.
"Everyone!"
"Master Yang, Master Zhao!"
"I dare to ask, what should we do if we don't want to submit to the imperial court?"
A tall man with a beard stepped forward, looked at Ning Fan, and asked bluntly.
"His Royal Highness King Yong has something to say about this matter."
"If you don't want to submit, you can disarm and return to the fields. Everyone will be given farming tools and a few acres of land."
"If you are stubborn and still make a living by robbing homes, seeking wealth and killing, and blocking roads and robbing, His Highness King Yong has also said that he can't control it outside of Huainan, and he will never tolerate it within Huainan!"
As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, a look of concentration appeared on the man's face. He pondered for a long time and sighed with sadness.
"That's it!"
"His Royal Highness King Yong is a true man, a true hero who has been on the battlefield!"
"Being able to serve under him is not considered an indignity of talent!"
Ning Fan smiled and nodded. The effect was obvious. The acting skills of his stooges were very good. Under their guidance, the thieves in Wumei Mountain followed his arrangements in a rhythmic manner.
"good!"
"Brother Yang, and all the leaders!"
"Since you are willing to submit to the imperial court, neither the imperial court nor His Highness King Yong will treat you badly. After the reorganization, you will be rewarded according to your reputation and the number of people under your command!"
"The treasure troves of King Huai will all be returned to the imperial court, and the armors will be provided to you brothers first!"
"Now the victims of the Huainan disaster are running around, and all the gold and silver belongings among them have been confiscated and used to relieve the victims!"
"Early tomorrow morning, the brothers who have been recruited will rush to Lingzhou to accept reorganization!"
…
The northern border of Dali.
The war god Xi Xiongtu of Li State led an army of 200,000 to confront Da Yan's army of 300,000.
decisive battle!
"Sir, now there are many people in Dayan, and most of them are cavalry. How should we face the enemy?"
"Haha, so far in this battle, we are in an invincible position!"
"how you said that?"
In just over a month, the majestic Li Kingdom War God was so impressed with this powerless scholar that he could even be said to obey his words.
An empty city was used to hold back Da Yan's army of more than 100,000 people, which turned the battle in the north into a turning point and captured several important towns in a row!
Now, even His Majesty the Li Kingdom has decreed to make him the minister of state!
"To this day, our army has won several games in a row and recovered all the lost ground."
"Da Yan has lost several games in a row, its morale is low, and its supply line is long. As long as it holds on and fights a protracted war, the country of Dayan will collapse without attacking!"
"But if that's the case, how can I, Dali, win?"
"Why win?"
Zhuge Liang asked back, directly stopping Xi Xiongtu from asking.
"Now that Dali has recovered all the lost territory, is it still preparing to counterattack Dayan?"
"this……"
Xi Xiongtu's expression suddenly became clear and he looked ashamed. In this situation, there was really no need for Dali to continue fighting.
As for the counterattack against Da Yan, it is even more nonsense. To regain the lost territory, a huge price has been paid, and the methods and strategies have been used to the extreme. If it were not for Mr. Kong Ming, Da Li would have been destroyed long ago.
"Indeed!"
"Whether we fight or not depends on Da Yan. If they refuse to give up, I will stay with them until the end!"
"If they retreat like this, we will naturally end it too!"
Zhuge Liang looked into the distance with a smile and said softly: "It's time to go back to the court!"
Upon hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Xi Xiongtu's expression suddenly condensed and he looked in a trance.
yes!
I almost forgot, Mr. Zhuge is from Dayu!
It is a pity that such a person of unparalleled magnificence is not his own son.
How terrible would it be if we were to become enemies with this person in the future?
"General Xi, Dayan is so powerful that only I, Dayu and Dayi, can resist!"
"If Da Yan wants to break me, he can only resort to alienating tactics and turn the two countries against each other. I must tell Her Majesty the Empress that no matter what happens in the future, I, Da Yu, will never do anything untoward to Da Li before Da Yan destroys the country." !”
"do you understand?"
Zhuge Liang gave Xi Xiongtu a thoughtful look, and the latter suddenly woke up and solemnly raised his hands, with a complex look on his face: "I will convey your wishes to your Majesty!"
"Sir, you will always be my friend!"
"So best."
