Chapter Three Inference

Although Chu Yuan, Hu Feng and He Xi did not often walk around the world, they also knew a little about the two major systems of Dongchang divided into Red Dragon and Ghost Fog. After hearing Yun Bianqing said this, wasn't it that he was pointing out that Fang Zhennuo was a Ghost Fog person, and his face became solemn for a moment.

Ji Yeping's smile suddenly faded and raised his voice, "Old Yun, this is not a joke. You need evidence to speak,"

Yun Bianqing looked at Fang Zhennuo: "The people in the East Factory are treacherous and deceitful, how can they leave any handles when doing things?"

Ji Yeping stood up angrily: "He is Mr. Li's apprentice. You said he is from the Dongchang. Wouldn't you be scolding Mr. Li? I invited him to be a military advisor and got Mr. Yan's approval. I am blind, Mr. Yan is also blind." As he said that, his palm slapped his hand and slammed the copper plate on the side, causing the small table to roll up and fall to the ground, making a harsh sound, and blood-stained shrapnel scattered.

"Peace Master calms down," Zhu Qing said: "Peace Master, we should calmly analyze some things and not blindly appeal to feelings. In fact, as he said, although Mr. Li, Mr. Yan and Mr. You are like brothers, we have not had much contact with Military Advisor Fang, and the military advisor is young. As far as I know, he has not been with Mr. Li for a long time,"

Hiraki looked at him: "What, even you doubt it,"

Zhu Qing said: "I'm not suspicious, but said that although Yun Bianqing's words are unfounded, they have some truth. Before things are clarified, everyone should be calm."

Ji Yeping was so angry that he was furious in his chest, but he didn't know how to help Fang Zhennuo. He looked at him standing there with a quiet expression, without any intention of defensiveness, and seemed to have a sense of "a scholar meets a soldier, it's better to be wronged". He felt even more disgusted. He was so angry that he sat back on the chair and turned his face to the ground and said, "Anyway, I believe Xiao Fang, you can think whatever you like,"

There was silence in the hall and the atmosphere was depressing.

After a certainty, Hu Feng bowed down and continued to treat Ji Yeping's wounds.

Everyone looked quietly for a while, and Jiang Wan said gently: "Before we found evidence, everyone was innocent. We suspect each other like this to make the relatives hurt and the enemy happy. Brother Yun, there is Mr. Zhu here, and I and three senior brothers are here. Everyone can ensure the safety of the Pavilion Master. The official army may organize an attack on the island at any time on the periphery. You can work hard and walk around the mountains and rivers to see if there are any shortcomings. Schedule in time to arrange it in order to make sure you have everything you need to do. How about it,"

In the pavilion, the three kings have always been above the Four Emperors. Although Jiang Wan's words were a tone of discussion, they were also an order. Yun Bianqing looked up and saw that Ji Yeping did not look at him. He lowered his head and said, "People Master, be careful," he glanced at Fang Zhennuo again and turned to leave the hall.

As the sound disappeared, Ji Yeping sighed and said, "This old Yun is just a random guess and I don't know what's wrong, but Xiao Fang, you know that he practices big guns, and I also practice big guns. I used to discuss together, and my relationships are closer than others. He is also for my own good. Don't hold a grudge against him." At this time, Hu Feng's bandage was over, and he bowed and thanked him and put on his clothes.

Fang Zhennuo shook his head: "Master, you are so far away from your words. How could I hold a grudge against him? On the contrary, I am very happy."

Hinahei said: "Brother, you are not talking about the slander, are you?"

Fang Zhennuo smiled, he raised his hand, walked a few steps, and looked at the torch light shaking outside the hall door: "Three kings, four emperors, and eight great masters, have all been bleeding and worked hard for the development and growth of Juhao Pavilion, and I came from behind and did something unusual and was questioned and criticized, which is reasonable. Yun Bianqing's ability to doubt me means that he has no problem,"

Ji Yeping's eyebrows stretched out, and suddenly his face darkened again: "I've heard of ghost fog, ghost fog, and mysterious secrets, as if they were undercover, so in our pavilion..."

Fang Zhennuo opened his hand: "Master, if you have such an idea, you will be hit by the enemy's plan."

Hinata was stunned.

Fang Zhennuo said: "At the end of last year, Ying Hongying and his son of Taishan faction disturbed the capital, joined forces with the three factions to withdraw from the alliance, and the Baijian Alliance suddenly changed internally. Although it is difficult for outsiders to understand the matter, some clues can be seen. Perhaps it was because the East Factory had installed people and planned to lead the two families to fight, or it was because the Qin family teased the three factions to rebel, and successfully annexed the Baijian Alliance. None of these matters is that the intensified conflicts must be inseparable from the support of the insiders. Our Juhao Pavilion family has a great cause and mixed personnel. It is difficult to guarantee that there are no people from the East Factory or the Qin family. Therefore, I have been secretly paying attention to it for more than half a year since I took over as a military advisor."

Ji Yeping was quite surprised and looked to the side. Zhu Qing and Jiang Wan exchanged gazes, as if they knew nothing about it.

Fang Zhennuo said: "The more I visit, the more I admire someone,"

Hinahei asked: "Who,"

Fang Zhennuo smiled: "You need to say it, of course it's the one you always talk about,"

"Brother Changsun," Ji Yehei felt even more strange.

Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that the results of the military advisor's visit are relatively optimistic."

Fang Zhennuo nodded: "When the Hundred Swords Alliance happened, it was reported that it was the cause of the Luo brothers. At the beginning of the year, Ma Mingshao died for no reason. The Qin family also cleaned and adjusted the personnel. The truth was confusing, but no matter what, it means that there are hidden dangers within these two major forces, and their locations are also high-level leaders with considerable status. In comparison, there are many gangs in our pavilion, and the personnel situation is more complicated. However, among the backbone above the middle level, no one is worthy of doubt."

Ji Yeping said with a straight look: "Brother has always known people and is good at responsibilities and is very careful. All of this is natural..."

Zhu Qing and Jiang Wan's expressions were a little dimmed, and their heads slowly lowered.

Changsun Xiaochi is indeed the undisputed leader, but after he formed such a stable and powerful team, he chose to leave. This is undoubtedly a greater irony than the problems caused by the personnel of the Baijian Alliance and the Qin family.

Fang Zhennuo said: "My energy is limited, and half a year is not enough to check it out in detail. There may be spies on our island at this moment, so everyone should not take it lightly."

As he nodded slowly, Ji Yeping's neck suddenly became firm, and then raised his face: "You didn't send anyone to help me just now. In addition to worrying about the disparity between the enemy and us, he was also afraid that there would be internal support on the island to make trouble." Seeing Fang Zhennuo smiled slightly, he guessed it, and slapped his thighs and said, "Ha, good brother, you still think carefully. The waterway is blocked, and there are officers and soldiers on the lake. If the island is in chaos, you can't even come back to your home if you fight out."

Chu Yuan suddenly turned his head and shouted: "Who,"

After a sound came out, his body was already outside the door. Hu Feng, He Xi, flew up and broke through the west window.

The wind hangs in her clothes, and there is a figure flying outside the west window and dodging, saying loudly: "Don't do it, it's me."

Ji Yeping picked up the red gun and was about to rush out, but he saw a fire flashing at the door. Not only did the man not escape, he crawled into the hall. When he looked closely, he was stunned: "Old Yun, why are you back?"

Yun Bianqing said: "I didn't come back, I didn't leave at all,"

Ji Yeping immediately understood: He was worried about his safety, so he pretended to leave, and then came back quietly to listen. He poked the gun to the ground and smiled and said, "Hey, you are too careful. I'm still thinking about it. Why did the spy come here as soon as he said it, the spy arrives."

Yun Bianqing took two steps forward and bowed: "Military advisor, now, nostalgia and emotion are useless. The official army sealed the lake and surrounded the island, and it may launch another attack at any time. I wonder what good strategies the military advisor has to defeat the enemy,"

Chu Yuan and his two junior brothers walked back from outside the door. When they heard this, they knew that he had let go of his past grudges. They had a look of Zhu Qing and Jiang Wan and others, and they all showed warm smiles.

Fang Zhennuo smiled with a friendly smile, but his expression became solemn: "Brother Yun asked well, I was worried about this. This time the government operation was very strange. The East Factory led his troops to repair the plank road and secretly crossed Chencang. After the intention was exposed, he fought extremely resolutely. Yu Dayou's reinforcements arrived and joined the people on the hill and Luhuangqiao. He would definitely learn from the two people that the island's foundation could be organized again with their troops, but he retreated silently. This action was abnormal."

Ji Yeping said: "What's the matter? Yu Dayou has been leading troops for many years and is a veteran. He is arbitrary when fighting wars. He has never liked to have eunuchs. He is also intimate with the East Factory on the surface, but secretly careless. This time he saw that Zeng Shiquan suffered a loss, so he was probably happy to see it, hahaha," he said.

Jiang Wan shook his head: "Yu Dayou is a righteous person and will not affect national affairs due to personal likes and dislikes. On the contrary, in the Dongchang, Zeng Shiquan, when he failed his battle, he was very likely to be unwilling to let others steal the credit, so he found an excuse to withdraw his troops back," Zhu Qing said: "Yes, victory and defeat are common, and Dongchang has always been domineering. Although Zeng Shiquan's defeat was embarrassing, he would not have left any talk. If Yu Dayou turned the situation around, his incompetent reputation would be deducted."

After saying this, the hall was silent. Several people seemed to see the same idea in each other's eyes, that is: how to make good use of this when Dongchang and Yu Dayou were in harmony, perhaps the key to breaking through the blockade and opening up the situation.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Ji Yeping couldn't help but: "What's there to think about this? In my opinion, we will mobilize our troops to fight out. As long as we go out of the waterway and go up the river, who can stop us?" Zhu Qing said: "In this way, we will abandon Junshan... Zeng Shiquan Xiang is in the north. Judging from his performance today, his ability on the water surface is obviously a bit weak. Now the Northeast Waterway should be under the control of the East Factory. Before both of their troops can effectively cooperate, a strong breakthrough is indeed much better than defending the isolated island," the Chu Yuan brothers nodded slowly, showing their expressions of agreement.

Fang Zhennuo pondered: "If it were just two groups of people, Zeng Shiquan and Yu Dayou, it would be easy..."

Yunbian Qing Yiqi: "Military advisor, what do you mean?"

Fang Zhengnuo refused to answer, walked two steps forward, bent down and picked up a bloody shrapnel, and shone it to everyone in front of the lights.

The eyes of several people in the hall were also focused on his fingertips. As they looked, Jiang Wan suddenly took a breath of air conditioning. Zhu Qing said, "What's wrong," Jiang Wan said, "I was seriously injured and didn't participate in the battle, but I could see the clearest on the mountain. The cannons on Yu Dayou's ship were average, and the range was far less than that of Zeng Shiquan. Moreover, the ships they were on were far less than those of Dongchang,"

Ji Yeping was stunned for a moment and recalled: "Yes, there is a varnish on the ship of Dongchang, and the wood is also new. It's probably just been built, what's wrong?"

Jiang Wan said: "The imperial court's military expenditure has been tight for years, so how can there be money to build so many new ships?" Chu Yuan said: "The wealth and honor are the imperial family. It has been more than half a year since you made a big fuss in the capital. The emperor has the intention of conquering the capital, and it is not difficult to raise some ships," Jiang Wan said: "Senior brother doesn't know. Previously, with the line of Xu Ge Lao, we can explore a lot of the imperial background. Jiajing's alchemy and Taoism are being refined and peaceful. The military spending on Japanese military is very expensive. The Ming Dynasty has been eating food for many years, but it has been unable to make ends meet. In addition, Altan and other foreign tribes

The court has long been unable to hold on to it. Although Longqing's succession has eased after he ascended the throne, the situation is still serious. This year, in order to prevent the earth-shaking barbarians, he transferred Qi Jiguang to build the Great Wall in the north to train troops, and at the same time sent Yu Dayou to wipe out Zeng Yiben. These two expenses are enough to empty the national treasury. Now there are enough levies and miscellaneous taxes. If it is further levy, it will inevitably cause civil unrest. But now, such a large warship is placed there one by one, and it can be seen that each one is quite expensive. Where does this money come from? Isn't it understandable?"

Having said that, Ji Yeping had already understood completely. He clasped his chair armrest with his ten fingers and said, "Qin Juexiang,"

Fang Zhennuo said: "Yes, the Yangtze River line is in our eyes. The imperial court wants to build so many ships. We will not notice that. Tan Lun and Qi Jiguang trained troops in the north. In addition to repairing the Great Wall and training military horses, they also purchased a large number of fine irons and recruited many blacksmiths to send them all into the military camp. If they were just forging ordinary weapons, they would not be able to use so much, and there was no need to keep it so confidential. In my opinion, Zeng Shiquan brought this batch of new cannons, which was probably the masterpiece of the two of them. This kind of iron cannon is not small, but transportation is not easy. The capital is closer to Shanxi, and transported by land and then loading the ship south is the most convenient and fastest."

For a moment, everyone's hearts sank. If it were as Fang Zhennuo said, in addition to Zeng Shiquan and Yu Dayou, there were also Qi Jiguang's newly trained 50,000 elite soldiers and Qin family warriors. Since last autumn, the Qin family has been increasing their efforts to expand their troops. At the end of the year, the Hundred Swords Alliance was swallowed up again. Now the two strong forces have merged and their strength has increased sharply. Even if they pick up and pick up one-third, there will be 10,000 or 20,000 people. These four people arrived at the same time. Not to mention the few people on the island now, even if they gathered all the brothers on Mount Lu, Taihu, and the Yangtze River together, they would be afraid that they would not be able to resist.
