Hezhou Military Camp.
Stationed more than ten miles away from the Valley of the Dead.
Zhu Yue did not dare to move forward easily until accurate news was sent back.
This distance not only ensures that their troops have enough reaction space, but also can understand the situation in the Valley of the Dead in a timely manner.
The Chinese military tent.
Zhu Yue pinched his nose with a black line on his head and looked at the exhausted subordinate in front of him who couldn't even stand firmly.
Since coming back, I have spoken three sentences and gone to the hut four times.
According to his statement, before leaving, he was held down by a dozen strong men and fed some powder and a few ladles of cold water.
It started already halfway.
"Shameless!"
"A dignified Liaozhou governor actually used such a despicable method!"
"What a bully!"
No matter how good-tempered Zhu Yue was, he still slapped the table at this time.
"Second the order, the army will advance five miles, and a small group of troops will be prepared near Wangshan Pavilion in advance. Listen to me, and everything will be broken down as a sign. You rush out for me. Don't worry about the others. You must give me a break." Fu Mingli caught it."
Zhu Yue said bitterly.
…
Wangshan Pavilion.
Located on the mountainside east of the Valley of the Dead.
In the past, it was a thatched house for passers-by to rest.
After the thatched houses gradually collapsed in the back, the county magistrate of the nearby county had someone repair such a pavilion.
From time to time, I watch the sunset on the mountainside.
By the way, I do some things that are not very convenient to do in the yamen.
After the war in Liaozhou, the county magistrate rarely came out. For ordinary people, the pavilion was leaking from all sides and had no protection from wind or rain. It was of no use. Gradually, the pavilion fell into disuse.
When Zhu Yue came to the pavilion, Fu Mingli had already been sitting inside and waiting for a long time.
Zhu Yue was still cautious. Before coming, he made sure that Fu Mingli had arrived. Then he led a dozen people and walked slowly towards the mountainside.
"Brother Fu, long time no see!"
"Brother Fu's ability to accept the appointment really impresses me and my younger brother. Your courage is admirable!"
Zhu Yue cupped his hands and stepped forward and said.
"I said Zhu, do you have any serious illness in your head?"
"This is our Liaozhou, how can I not dare to go? But you, being able to come here, are really not afraid of death."
Fu Mingli said coldly.
The Zhu Yue in front of me gave people the impression that although he was very polite and generous, he was very fake and made people very unhappy!
"Haha, Brother Fu is really merciless."
"The weather is perfect today. Wouldn't it be nice for you and me to have tea and talk?"
"This is the tea I specially brought from Hezhou. I don't know if it will get into Brother Fu's mouth."
Zhu Yue said slowly.
He didn't take Fu Mingli's words to heart at all.
Fu Mingli was so angry that he gasped for breath.
Obviously everything was caused by this guy in front of me, but from what he said, it was my fault?
Mudd!
Fu Mingli was very depressed.
at the same time.
On the hillside west of the Valley of the Dead.
"grown ups!"
"grown ups!"
"They're all gone!"
"It's at a pavilion halfway up the mountain to the east."
"Fu Mingli took a dozen people, and Zhu Yue also took a dozen people. They are probably already up the mountain now."
A soldier ran over panting and said to Zhang Bao.
"Um?"
"What is this for?"
"Why don't we start fighting instead of talking?"
Zhang Bao felt something was wrong.
According to Zhang Bao's opinion, they should be eager to go up and tear each other apart.
"I don't know, sir, but it's definitely not a good thing. I watched from a distance. To the north and south of the pavilion, the two of them were ambushing many people."
"I'm guessing we're going to take action if we don't agree!"
The person came said.
"How many troops are there?"
Zhang Bao asked quickly.
"I couldn't see clearly. I didn't dare to get too close. I saw it while climbing on a tree. They were all well hidden, but there were still hundreds of people there."
The visitor said to Zhang Bao.
"It's strange. If you want to fight or not, if you want to talk, you're still defensive. It seems it's time to add fuel to their fire."
"Wu Dayong, ask the two teams to go around behind them and find a way to set fire to them. Let's light them first!"
"I don't believe I can't fight!"
Zhang Bao thought for a while and said to Wu Dayong.
The two teams quietly walked around.
…
Wangshan Pavilion.
"Brother Fu, try our Hezhou tea."
Zhu Yue handed a cup of tea to Fu Mingli.
Fu Mingli's eyelids trembled.
"Wait a minute, I'll drink your drink!"
Fu Mingli replaced the tea cup that Zhu Yue was about to put into his mouth. Zhu Yue looked confused and didn't understand what Fu Mingli meant.
"If you have something to say, just say it, if you have something to say, let it go. Why are you talking to me?"
"If you have any other tricks, just use them!"
Fu Mingli said to Zhu Yue, and after thinking about it, he put the tea aside.
"Brother Fu, where did you start talking about this?"
"I don't remember where I offended Brother Fu. I hope Brother Fu will tell me. If it's my fault, I will definitely make amends to Brother Fu."
Zhu Yue said with a question mark.
"speak out?"
Fu Mingli almost dropped the tea cup.
You drugged us and tortured us like that. Is it okay to say this casually?
You don't think it's a shame, but we think it's embarrassing!
You did it on purpose, right?
Fu Mingli's eyes were like daggers, staring at Zhu Yue.
Seeing Fu Mingli's gaze, Zhu Yue was stunned.
Damn it?
Did I say the wrong thing?
Can't I admit my mistake?
It’s not over, right? !
Do you really think that I, Zhu Yue, am made of clay?
Zhu Yue also felt angry inside.
"Brother Fu, if you continue to do this, there will be no way to talk. You must have heard of my methods. Now that I come to talk to you in person, I have already given you a lot of face."
"Don't be ignorant of praise!"
Zhu Yue said coldly.
"means?"
"I have not seen?!"
"How else should I meet?!"
"If we can't talk about it, why don't we talk about it!"
Fu Mingli was about to pick up the tea cup and threw it down. It turned out that Zhu Yue had just poured the tea on it. As soon as he took it, Fu Mingli retracted his hand because it was hot.
"Let's all calm down!"
"Today we are here to discuss things, not to quarrel. Arguing will not solve the problem!"
"I'm here to talk about cooperation with you sincerely. If it weren't for me, the imperial court would have given up on your Liaozhou this time. In the end, you and I are just pawns now. You can't survive on your own."
Zhu Yue took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said to Fu Mingli.
After listening to Zhu Yue's words, Fu Mingli calmed down.
He naturally knew what Zhu Yue was talking about, otherwise he would not have led his troops south, but his attention was completely diverted by the things Zhu Yue arranged along the way, and he almost forgot about it.
"How do you want to cooperate?"
Fu Mingli picked up the teacup and drank the tea.
After drinking, Fu Mingli's heart skipped a beat.
Mad, why did I drink?
Could it be that some medicine was put in it?
"I come to talk to you sincerely, otherwise I wouldn't bring so many people to talk to you now. I am not only helping you, but also helping myself."
As Zhu Yue spoke, he stood up and gave Fu Mingli some tea.
"No no no!"
"Stop drinking, stop pouring!"
Fu Mingli declined quickly.
"Brother Fu, you're welcome."
Zhu Yue thought Fu Mingli was humble and still prepared to fall.
One of them fell, the other hid, and accidentally, the teacup fell to the ground with a bang.
moment.
Two teams of people rushed up from the north and south sides of Wangshan Pavilion.
