Chapter 1153 Obviously you are still a little short of

"tasty"

Fang Jie put down his chopsticks and wiped off the oily marks from the corners of his mouth with a white hand towel.

"The dishes here are less mellow but more elegant than the Central Plains. The dishes in the Central Plains, especially the northern ones, have a very strong taste. The dishes in the Dongjiang area are mostly light, and I don't feel bored after eating them for several days."

Mu Qinglin hurriedly said, "There is a century-old shop in the east of the city, which tastes even more beautiful."

Fang Jie nodded: "Since that's the case, I'll go eat tomorrow."

Mu Qinglin agreed with a smile and accompanied Fang Jie to leave the restaurant.

Fang Jie did not live in the place arranged by Mu Qinglin, but lived in the inn. The entire inn was occupied by the Black Flag Army, and those burly and strong murderous soldiers were guarding here, making people dare not get close to it. Some people may suspect that there is no murderous aura on people. This is a very mysterious thing and cannot be trusted. That is because, whether in the past or in the future, ordinary people have no chance to come into contact with these truly murderous people.

"I'm going out to eat again today?"

Xiang Qingniu saw Fang Jie back and couldn't help but curl his lips: "The old man named Mu Qinglin is a good guide and a good slave. I'm afraid that all the restaurants in Mu Mansion City that can be eaten? After all, you are one of the best people in the world. Can you be more reserved?"

"Count one, no two."

Fang Jie waved his hand to correct it.

"It turns out that being handsome can make people feel disgusting!"

Xiang Qingniu couldn't help but stand up and asked angrily: "In the past few days, everyone has only watched you eat and drink in the city. Are you planning to wait like this? Mu Guangling promised to give you food and grass and you believe it? If he doesn't give it to you for a while, he will wait here for a while? Don't forget that there are nearly one million troops in the East Xinjiang, and you can really feel at ease if you leave the soldiers behind here!"

"I express my gratitude for the first half of your words."

Fang Jie sat down on the chair and leaned back to make himself feel more comfortable: "Yes, I'm just waiting for Mu Guangling to give me food, and if nothing unexpected happens, I will get a batch of food soon. Do you believe it?"

"What if you get the food?"

Xiang Qingniu asked: "You have been delaying in the city for several days. Who knows what happened outside? What if Mu Guangling pretended to be sick these days and didn't see you, in fact, the person had already run out, do you know?"

"I really know."

Fang Jie smiled: "And you are obviously much smarter today than before."

Fang Jie poured a cup of herbal tea himself: "Mu Guangling has already left this city. These days, Mu Qinglin just wanted to stabilize me and not let me leave. You can guess all these."

Xiang Qingniu was stunned for a moment: "Then are you still so leisurely?"

"Mu Guangling was frightened by me and ran out of his house, but I was an old man at his house. Why didn't I relax? I had to relax for a few days. When Mu Qinglin felt that the time was almost over, he handed me over the food. Even if the amount was not enough, it was still real food. The army was just here, and I would make a little profit if I could make a little profit. I was not picky about food."

"What if Mu Guangling left the city to arrange for you?"

Xiang Qingniu asked anxiously.

"Nothing in case, it must be."

Fang Jie said: "But think about it carefully, what method can Mu Guangling use to deal with me now? With the current strength of the Mu Mansion, he would not dare to tear Nalan Dingdong apart when I didn't come, and he would pretend to maintain his superficial politeness. When I come, would he dare to use all the strength of the Mu Mansion to fight me?"

"he......"

Xiang Qingniu pondered for a while, and suddenly realized: "Borrowing a knife to kill someone?"

"Um"

Fang Jie nodded: "This method is so old-fashioned, but it has been tried and done. If nothing unexpected happens, Mu Guangling will reveal my position to the foreigners. My Black Flag Army is now the most powerful force in fighting against foreigners. If the foreigners know where I am, how can they not come?"

"Then are you waiting like that?"

Xiang Qingniu asked.

"Wait"

Fang Jie said: "Why can't I go out to his home if Mu Guangling dares to go out to his home? If nothing unexpected happens, Mu Guangling must have guessed that the first place I want to go is Malan Mountain. I want to go to Phoenix Platform, and passing there, it is the most important hub in the East Xinjiang. Mu Guangling is reluctant to leave, and foreigners want it even more, so Mu Guangling should set up a game there. It's best if my Black Flag Army and foreigners fight for both losses there, so he is satisfied."

Xiang Qingniu rubbed his head and found that he was really not good at this: "What do you plan to do, just say it straight, you know that I don't have so many twists and turns in my mind. Wouldn't it be very unfavorable if I follow Mu Guangling's arrangement?"

“Where’s the disadvantage?”

Fang Jie smiled and said, "Mu Guangling's method is nothing more than to lead me to a decisive battle with the foreigners. He even chose the battlefield for me. I should really thank him. For this game, he had to pay a piece of food and grass, which is very conscientious. So I plan to follow his arrangement, because... I was going to fight quickly."

"You can really scare someone to death."

Xiang Qingniu sighed: "Are you ready?"

Fang Jie said: "Mu Guangling hopes that the foreigners will kill me, and hopes that I can eliminate foreigners more, so that he can re-in charge of the entire Dongjiang. Not only will I follow his arrangements, but I will also do my best to help him perform this scene. However,... how to fight this battle is not up to him, nor is it up to the foreigners."

......

......

Morx was very satisfied with his current status.

Under Lehmann, young generals have always had a high status, so the more favored the younger generals are, the more arrogant they are, and they are no longer full of respect for those who are already old. Morx insists that this is a stupid thing, so he absolutely does not allow himself to do so.

He knew that Emperor Leman liked to use young people like him because Leman knew what kind of people could better exert their indomitable combat power on the battlefield. Older people always looked forward and looked back, and with the current military power of the Oplu Empire, no matter where they launched a war, they did not need to be so cautious.

Lehman likes to crush the conquest.

but!

Emperor Leman definitely did not pay attention to those old people.

For example, many young generals said countless bad things in front of Lehman, Shurence is still the highest commander on the battlefield in the East Xinjiang. Even though Emperor Lehman had already led the army, he still did not order to deprive Shurence of his military power. For example, Kirkbeau, who had made the most advice around Lehman, seemed to have his lungs exploded when he coughed, but Mox knew that he must have lived a few more years more than most people.

Because these two old guys understand Lehman's thoughts more than those of them.

So, Morx likes to approach Kirkbeau very much. He knew that Kirkbeau likes antique treasures from the Han people, so he lets people search as many as possible. Regardless of whether the treasures are collected or not, as long as there are enough quantities, the old fox of Kirkbeau can be moved. All he needs is that Kirkbeau mentions himself to Lehman occasionally.

Obviously, he succeeded.

Two of the most powerful young generals in the Oplu Empire have fallen on this land in a row. Mox doesn't want to be the third one. One is an idiot who is arrogant and arrogant and thinks he can easily take down the Phoenix Platform, and the other is an idiot who is also arrogant and thinks he can rule the waterways in the East Xinjiang.

Morx was not surprised by their death.

After being appointed, Morx's first thing was to visit Kirkbeau with generous gifts and express his sincere thanks for his promotion. Then he took the army as fast as possible, and he didn't want Emperor Lehman to have a chance to repent. Although his troops under his command were not very satisfied this time, the number was still amazing.

This time, in addition to the 200,000 elite soldiers of the Oplu Empire, there were nearly 300,000 surrendered soldiers from the Chu State. The role of these surrendered soldiers was of course cannon fodder, but on the battlefield, the role of cannon fodder is often very important.

After arriving in the East Xinjiang, Mox's first thing was not to start a war against any Han army, but to quietly leave his army and secretly arrive in the Curence army with generous gifts. He felt that he needed to show kindness and respect to this old guy, and he knew very well that what the old people like most was to be respected.

He was not here to compete for military power with Curence. Mox knew that only idiots would think that way, and the facts proved that idiots would die quickly. Dongjiang is a big battlefield. If they win in all respects, then military achievements are coveted, but no one can occupy all military achievements. Instead of doing so, it is better to share with others politely.

"Are you still familiar with this taste?"

Mox leaned forward slightly and asked politely.

Shuluns poured the mellow red wine from the cup into his mouth, and his face was full of enjoyment: "This is a fine wine produced in my hometown. Even if I traveled all the world to taste all the famous wines, I can't forget this taste. Mox, you are really interested. Think about it, I have been away from my hometown for many years, and I haven't drunk my hometown for at least five years."

"And your letters."

Mox waited until this time to take out the heaviest gift. He handed a letter to Curence with both hands: "Before I came, I specially sent someone back to the empire and saw your family. Your family was very excited to know that I was coming to see you, so everyone left a sentence in this letter."

Curence's face changed, and he took the letter with his hands trembling. He read it carefully twice, then pressed his heart on his chest: "My grandson has entered the Emperor's School to study, and you can imagine how many years I have not been close to him. In my memory, he is still a child who is rushing butterflies in the garden."

"Yes, time passes so quickly."

Mox sighed: "I remember when I first met you, you attended His Majesty's dinner in the dress of the Navy Commander. At that time, you had just defeated the arrogant Dongpu people with the Imperial Navy, so that they could know what invincibility is. From that time on, you were my idol."

"Ha ha ha ha"

Shullens smiled proudly: "Not every young man still remembers those past events."

"I will not forget because you are my idol, so it is also the driving force for me to move forward."

Mox felt that the opportunity was ripe, so he smiled and said, "I came here this time just to ask for your advice. I don't want to disappoint Your Majesty. After all, my family is not a famous family in the empire. It is too difficult for me to get the opportunity to lead the troops this time."

"You must have visited Kirkbeau's old man."

Shullens said with a smile.

Mox smiled embarrassedly, his acting skills were just right: "Young people always hope to get more guidance from their predecessors."

"All right"

Shuluns put down his wine glass, picked up a piece of intelligence from the table and handed it to Mox: "This is the news I just got. The leader of the Black Flag Army came from Central China. Soon after, he will personally escort a batch of food and grass to Malan Mountain. You know, if this man dies, His Majesty will be very happy!"

Mox's eyes lit up, he stood up and bowed deeply: "Thank you, you are like my father."

The two of them exchanged a few more greetings, and Mox immediately said goodbye.

Looking at the young man's back as he left, Seurence couldn't help but smile: "I always need others to explore the way forward, so I know if there are any traps there... Young man, what you need is not only the disguised respect, but also the innate wisdom to distinguish the authenticity... Obviously, you are still a little short of it.
