Chapter 318 Decline

Li Fengyun immediately arranged for the work of swornship, and invited Yuan An, Xiao Yi and other alliance officials, as well as Zhen Baoche, Meng Haigong and other heroes to witness the swornship of the five brothers.

After Li Fengyun finished his work in detail, Shan Xiongxin, Xu Shiyi, Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu also got to know each other and had a preliminary understanding. The excitement of the four people gradually calmed down, and then greater doubts came to his heart. What is the profound meaning of Li Fengyun's move?

Among the four people, only Shan Xiongxin's origin was OK, and he could barely be regarded as a place of honor. Although Xu Shiyi was a declining nobleman, his identity as a merchant actually existed and invisibly "expelled" him from the ranks of nobles. As for Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu, they were like ordinary people who were replaced by humble origins and now they only had a thousand people under their command, and they were two weak thieves.

With Li Fengyun's strength today, his every move has profound meaning. It is definitely not his impulse to make friends with the four people, nor is it a place to be excited, but has a purpose. For example, Shan Xiongxin can bring him some of the power of the Wagang people, such as Xu Shiyi can bring him financial support, but what can Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu, who have nothing, bring him?

Xu Shiyi already knew Li Fengyun's prominent background and had some guesses about what he would do in the future, so his doubts were even greater. Li Fengyun had a righteous relationship with a lowly person, violated the basic principles of the aristocratic hierarchy. Of course, Li Fengyun was unruly doing whatever he wanted, and with his strength, he could break all rules unscrupulously. However, after all, he was a person of this era and wanted to do something big in this era, so he must follow the rules of this era, otherwise he would inevitably have to run into blood. Therefore, Xu Shiyi was puzzled. If Li Fengyun became sworn with the children of wealthy families, it would be natural, but it would be incredible to have sworn with the four of them.

However, this doubt can only be kept in your heart, you can't ask, and you can't ask, so you can only wait for the answer in the future. Now Li Fengyun's identity, status and strength are too different from them. People are arrogant and take the initiative to become sworn brothers. You are not grateful and even suspect that they have ulterior motives, that would be too ignorant.

Soon, Li Fengyun and the four returned to the camp, and they were greeted by a large group of alliance bureaucrats who were envious, jealous, hatred and doubtful. As the sky became darker, the commanders of various powerful commanders and commanders of various military forces came one after another, and congratulations came one after another, but without exception, everyone's eyes were filled with envy, jealousy, and unexplained doubts.

Those who know Li Fengyun's rise, such as the King Zhuxiong of Wagang, Wang Dangren and Li Gongyi, all know that Li Fengyun and Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiyi are friends of life and death. It is understandable that these three people have become sworn, but who are Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu? What is the friendship between these two unknown young men and Li Fengyun?

Yuan An, Xu Shisan and others knew very well the origin of Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghu, just two small soldiers in the rebel army. They didn't know why Li Fengyun took great care of them, and now they were even more sworn brothers. It was so surprising that even their eyes fell off.

But whether it is envious, jealous, hatred, or confusion, the facts cannot be changed. Li Fengyun and Shan Xiongxin, Xu Shiyi, Du Fuwei and Fu Gonghuyi have formed Jinlan. According to age, Shan Xiongxin is twenty-six years old, ranking first and eldest, Li Fengyun is twenty-four years old, second and second; Xu Shiyi is nineteen years old, ranking third; Fu Gonghu is eighteen years old, fourth and fourth; Du Fuwei is the youngest, seventeen years old, fifth and fifth.

Next, I drink happily, drink and drink, and drink and make fun of each other. When I was drunk, no matter whether Li Fengyun was mentally damaged or had ulterior motives, I would leave everything behind and talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow.

A large number of drunken scenes were all drunk, Shan Xiongxin, Du Fuwei and Fu Gongfu were all drunk, but Xu Shiyu was very sober, while Li Fengyun remained calm and his heart was not beating. After sending away the alliance bureaucrats and the heroes, he returned to his tent.

Xu Shiyi accompanied Li Fengyun for a few words and finally got to the point, "The Twelve Lady is in the River

Li Fengyun seemed to have made a prediction, but was not surprised at all, and said calmly, "The war in Qi County is tense, so it is not appropriate to leave."

Li Fengyun's polite refusal seemed to be within Xu Shiyi's expectations. After all, Li Fengyun fulfilled his promise and helped the Hebei people save Cui Hongsheng, but the Hebei people made Li Fengyun go back on his word and were unwilling to fulfill his promise to attack Zhang Xutuo by three rebels. Instead, he threatened Li Fengyun to defeat King Yang Nan of Qi at any cost, and simply regarded Li Fengyun as a knife that could be used at will. Of course, Li Fengyun had reason to be angry and had reason to interrupt cooperation with the Hebei people and the Cui family.

"Brother, the dispute over the imperial rule is as you predicted. The Holy Lord asked King Dai Yang You to stay in Xijing. If nothing unexpected happens, the one who stayed in the Eastern Capital was either Zhao Yang Gao or Yue Yang Tong." Xu Shiyu said quietly, "The Cui family is deeply trapped in the dispute over the imperial rule, and is full of dangers. Once your prediction is fulfilled again and a mutiny breaks out in the Eastern Capital, the Cui family is in danger, so..."

Li Fengyun decisively raised his hand and interrupted Xu Shiyu's words, "On the same day, he told Cui Jiu that there was no evidence. If he wanted to find evidence, he would start from his own people and not cause trouble for him."

"Brother" Xu Shiyi looked embarrassed and wanted to persuade him again, but when he saw Li Fengyun's cold face, he had to shut up.

"Third brother, I won't make it difficult for you." Li Fengyun said, "Go and tell her that I told Cui Jiu that day that if Cui cannot correctly analyze the political situation of the Dongdu today and cannot come up with effective countermeasures, Cui will inevitably fall into one big pit after another. Not to mention that Cui Hongsheng's life is difficult to protect, the entire Cui family will quickly decline."

Xu Shiyi looked at Li Fengyun in surprise and blurted out, "Dongdu really wants a mutiny to break out? Who is that mutiny?"

Li Fengyun sneered, "I don't know, I can't predict it beforehand. If someone exaggerates and makes mistakes in deduction, wouldn't it be a big cause of Cui's revitalization?"

Xu Shiyi was very embarrassed. He knew that he had said the wrong thing in a hurry, which made Li Fengyun feel a little unhappy. "Brother, don't blame me, I have no choice. I have to bow my head under the roof."

"You are a certain brother. No matter what you do, you won't blame you." Li Fengyun's face was slightly relaxed and he smiled slightly. "In the future, no matter how the situation changes, no matter what the fate of a certain and the alliance is, you must always abide by your duties. Do whatever you want, do whatever you want, and never lose your mind because of brotherhood, and don't make hasty decisions because of impulse. Your destiny must be mastered by yourself. This is the basic principle of being a person and doing things. If you lose this principle, you will not be Xu Shiyu."

Xu Shiyu was both ashamed and moved. In fact, since the two met, Xu Shiyu owed Li Fengyun a lot, even a life, but Li Fengyun never asked Xu Shiyu for help. Among the two, only Xu Shiyu owed Li Fengyun, and no Li Fengyun owed Xu Shiyu. So Li Fengyun said these resounding words with a clear conscience. On the contrary, Xu Shiyu felt guilty and uneasy. He was a businessman, and he was seeking profit and avoiding harm. He had been at a critical moment. He always overwhelmed friendship. This was the true nature of a businessman.

"You have a rest." Li Fengyun stood up and patted Xu Shiyi's shoulder affectionately, "I am satisfied to have you four brothers when I come to this world."

Looking at Li Fengyun's back gradually disappearing into the darkness, Xu Shiyi fell into an inexplicable mood, with depression, fear and anxiety. Is this swornship a blessing or a disaster? What is the future?

The next morning, Xu Shiyi said goodbye and left, but a few days later, he appeared in Kuangshan again, following a group of mysterious white men wearing powerful hats and walked into the alliance camp.

At this moment, Li Fengyun and the Zuo brothers of Changbai Mountain had met and discussed specific attack strategies. The two sides agreed to attack Licheng together. The alliance army mainly attacked in the northwest direction, and the Changbai Mountain Rebel Army launched a restraining attack in the southeast direction. At the same time, Changbai Mountain sent 100,000 people to Douzigang, Hebei, and invited Wang Bo to take this opportunity to cross Henan and return to Qilu. In addition, he sent a messenger to Beihai, inviting Guo Fangyu, the leader of the Beihai Rebel Army, and Qin Junhong entered the battlefield of Qi County as soon as possible, joined forces with the Changbai Mountain Rebel Army, and tried his best to defeat Zhang Xutuo, winning a piece of territory for himself and a good development opportunity.

Almost at the same time, King Yang Nan of Qi led his army to leave Pengcheng and enter Lu County. He joined forces with the prefect of Lu County Li Min, and began to encircle Mengshan, trying to use the strategy of surrounding Wei and saving Zhao to rescue Zhang Xutuo, who was trapped in Licheng.

After the news reached the battlefield of Qi County, Li Fengyun immediately ordered the army to obtain local materials and help the craftsmen of the Alliance's logistics battalion to make siege equipment day and night, and put on a stance of an upcoming battle of attacks.

The news of the deteriorating situation in Qi County quickly reached the Dongdu. The Holy Lord was furious and ordered King Yang Nan of Qi to speed up the suppression of the white-haired thief Li Fengyun, and to help Zhang Xutuo stabilize the situation in Qilu in the shortest time and ensure that the Donglai Naval Division could cross the sea for a long expedition within the scheduled time. He also ordered Zhang Xutuo to actively suppress the thieves and give heavy rewards. He also ordered Li Zixiong and Cui Junsu of the Donglai Naval Division to pay close attention to the battlefield in Qi County and give Zhang Xutuo necessary support. However, the main task of the Naval Division was to prepare for the Eastern Expedition. In other words, unless absolutely necessary, the Naval Division should not join the battlefield to suppress the rebellion, so as not to waste energy and accidents.

Wei Fusi passed many news from the Eastern Capital to Li Fengyun at the first time, and clearly warned him that the situation on the battlefield of Qilu was becoming increasingly unfavorable to the rebels, and this unfavorable situation would inevitably discourage the Hebei rebels, and the possibility of going south was getting smaller and smaller. Therefore, Li Fengyun must take action under the city of Licheng, at least to create the illusion that it is beneficial to the rebels.

Li Fengyun decided to attack and the tough battle must be fought. At this moment, Xu Shiyu arrived with his mysterious guests.
