Chapter 204: Secret
The stone fort is undergoing a new round of renovation and expansion of the city wall. For emergency response, the expanded city walls were covered with huge trees, filled with snow in the middle, and then watered and frozen into ice. In the cold winter, this way
The city wall is stronger than steel, and the city wall is covered with dead grass, and it doesn't feel slippery on it, but this is just a temporary solution. Once the weather gets warmer, this seemingly solid city defense will disappear within a few days.
Yun Zhao led his army to attack Shiliputuotuo Camp, destroying the food and grass they reserved, and bought a few months of precious time for Shibao and even Anqing. The city defense renovation of Shibao was immediately put on the agenda and started working day and night.
.
It is still late winter now, and it is not easy to obtain materials. It takes a lot of effort to obtain stone, soil, etc., but everyone understands that when you sweat more, you will lose less blood in the coming year. The whole Stone Fort mobilized to join forces together.
The whole scene was full of passion, and even those soldiers who did not need to go to the construction site to join in consciously. Now Yun Zhao's strength is still very weak. If he really fights, he will still focus on defense.
A solid city wall is the enemy's biggest nightmare.
There was a busy day outside, and in a room inside the stone castle, Yao Qian and Jiang Feng sat opposite each other. There were already three or four wine jars on the table, and they drank them all. Yao Qian's face and eyes were all
He was red and even his tongue was a little knotted when he spoke. Jiang Feng, who was much older than him, was calm and composed. Obviously, most of the wine on the table was drunk by Yao Qian.
"Brother, that's OK!" Jiang Feng reached out and held Yao Qian's hand that reached for the wine jar, "You have drunk too much. If you drink it again, you will be really drunk."
Yao Qian smiled bitterly, and tried his best to get rid of Jiang Feng's hand, snatched the wine, tilted his neck, and poured it into his mouth with a big mouthful. Seeing this, Jiang Feng could only sigh: "Brother. Why are you suffering?
?”
With a sound of shouting, Yao Qian threw the wine can and looked at Jiang Feng with red eyes, "Old man Jiang, we will be cursed. After we die, we will be thrown into the eighteenth level of hell and will never be reborn. You said. We two
Is that crazy?"
Before Jiang Feng could answer, Yao Qian leaned on the table and suddenly burst into tears: "What I admire most in my life is the hero, Yan Da, Shen Feng, Yue Ming, all of them are like this, but now, I, I actually
Start yourself..."
Jiang Feng stood up suddenly, reached out to cover Yao Qian's mouth, blocking the words he hadn't said yet. Then he hurried to the door, looked around, then turned around and closed the room
The door, walked to the table and looked at Yao Qian, "Old Yao, what do you regret after doing it? Yun Zhao needs a stage that belongs to him, and An Qing is his, you see, after Yue Ming's death,
As expected, Anqing was the general of Anqing's garrison. This was the most important first step he took. The world is difficult, and often the most difficult one is the first step. This step has been taken.
, at least for a long time in the future, Yun Zhao will be smooth sailing and continue to grow."
"But we act too despicable!" Yao Qian looked at Jiang Feng, "Old Jiang, I have killed many people in my life, but I never thought that I would kill such a person, such a respected person,
A beloved good man, a hero.”
Jiang Feng interrupted Yao Qian, "Those who accomplish great things are not limited to the details! Lao Yao, do you want Yun Zhao to be strong? Don't you want to avenge Yan Da and Chen Feng? You think, how can you take revenge? With this pitiful thing now I am afraid that as long as you show a little bit of your meaning, you will be crushed to pieces."
Yao Qian smiled bitterly and said, "So what if Yun Zhao became the guard of Anqing? The army is only 5,000 people. In the eyes of those people, is it still not worth mentioning that a small fifth-rank general?"
Jiang Feng sneered: "You are talking about peacetime. It's not worth a small Anqing guarding, but when is it now, Lao Yao, haven't you seen it? Meng Renxun (the fastest update) rises. However, the rivers of Dayue are getting worse and worse, and now they are faintly trapped in the whirlpool of seizing the reserve. The chaos has arrived. Yun Zhao has become the guard of Anqing, and is the only general on the border of Dayue who is still resisting the Mongolian army. Even if it is a flag, as long as Yun Zhao is capable, he will summon 10,000, 20,000, and 50,000 people. The court can only pinch his nose and accept it. Maybe he is still very happy."
Yao Qian was startled, "How is this possible?"
"Everything is possible!" Jiang Feng said: "We must do what we want to do to help Yun Zhao take the first step. This flag must be held by Yun Zhao and must not fall on Yue Ming. Yue Ming is still there, Yun Zhao can only be a general who obeys the orders. Yue Ming is not here, and Yun Zhao is the leader of the country. He will take his life and death and take it all."
"The most important thing is the first step. The rest can only be watched by Yun Zhao do it himself." Jiang Feng said.
Yao Qian looked at Jiang Feng with red eyes, and his mouth was filled with alcohol, "Old Jiang, I want to know, why are you doing this? If I am willing to do this, then what are you doing? You have to know , If this matter is exposed, you and I will end up being crushed to pieces. I am afraid that even Yun Zhao will not let us go."
"Heaven knows the earth, you know me, this matter has ended completely with the burial of General Yue Ming. Lao Yao, you have to ask me why, I want to tell you, in order to make a name for yourself, for my Jiang family to be able to be in This land has become a well-known figure. In this life, I have suffered enough of the losses of the people and the anger of those big names. Therefore, I want my descendants to become superiors and able to control the fate of others. the person.”
"You are so sure that Yun Zhao can succeed?" Yao Qian asked in confusion.
"Who can be sure of this kind of thing? But I think Yun Zhao, he has this talent and ambition. Although he still seems very immature now, I believe that as he stepped onto the platform of the Anqing Governor General, his His vision will become wider and wider, and his wrists and scheming will continue to increase as his experience grows. More importantly, this time period provides him with the best opportunity to produce heroes in troubled times. I think Yun Zhao Will be a hero in this troubled world, so naturally we have to invest in advance. The icing on the cake is not even more grateful for the timely help. When Yun Zhao becomes a great man, he will invest again, but it will be far less valuable than now! This is what I am The reason why he defected to Yun Zhao without hesitation, with all his wealth." Jiang Feng laughed loudly.
"But what if Yun Zhao fails? Then you will have nothing and even lose your life because of it. You should know that Yun Zhao's path is not easy to walk."
"Since you want to get the greatest reward, you naturally have to take the greatest risk." Jiang Feng said lightly: "If you fail, you will have nothing, even your life will be gone. What else do you have to worry about."
"But Jiang Xu's mind seems to be a little problem!" Looking at Jiang Feng, Yao Qian asked. "You are so invested, are you afraid you are on Jiang Xu?" After pondering for a moment, he continued: "I'm afraid you can't do what you imagined So?"
"This kid is not born stupid, it is because of the acquired reason." Jiang Feng's face was regretful, "So I put my hope on my great-grandson. As long as Yun Zhao becomes more prosperous, Jiang Xu will follow him, so naturally It will be high. When you find a smart woman and give birth to offspring, Yun Zhao will definitely take care of the merits of my old Jiangtou and Jiang Xu. It is not difficult for me to develop the Jiang family."
"You still think so far!" Yao Qian shook his head and said.
"I can't help but think that Jiang Xu is like now, so I can only plan for the Jiang family while I'm still alive, otherwise the Jiang family will be over after I die." Jiang Feng couldn't help but burst into tears when he talked about his grandson Jiang Xu.
"I feel sorry for my parents in the world!" Yao Qian sighed.
Wiping away tears, Jiang Feng raised his neck and drank a large glass of wine, looked at Yao Qian, and asked curiously: "Old Yao, how did you do it? A few days ago, I saw Yue Ming's injury was obvious. It got better, why did his injuries keep repeating and getting worse? At first, I thought you didn't want to listen to my plan? I had the idea of sending an assassin."
Yao Qian was silent for a while before saying, "I have a specialty in my skills. I will study herbs for the rest of my life. The medical skills are pretty good. Medical doctors can save people and kill people. If I start to treat Yue Ming's injuries, I will inevitably lead me to the situation afterwards. People suspect that is not going to cause fire to burn your body. The key is that this fire will not only burn me, but also affect Yun Zhao. So at first, we must do our best to let Anqing and others see that I am trustworthy. Then he used the medicine to make it repetitively and slowly took his life. In this way, it would not cause doubt. Everyone would only think that he was injured too much, so he would repeat it again and again, every time he repeated it, Ming was actually one step closer to the gate of hell."
"Great!" Jiang Feng gave a thumbs up.
"If I kill Yue Ming with this, I will feel guilty and uneasy all my life. There are gods who are doing it, and God is watching. Lao Jiang, we will definitely be retribution." Yao Qian was in pain.
"I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in gods and Buddhas all over the sky, demons and ghosts, I believe in myself." Jiang Feng snorted coldly: "Even if there is retribution, I am so old, so where are I afraid of? Lao Yao, you Are you afraid? Both of us have their own goals. In order to achieve this goal, what's the point even if we are crushed to pieces?"
After a pause, he continued: "Don't let Yun Zhao know about this matter. He is too young and not cunning enough. If he knew that Yue Ming was actually dead in our hands, he would inevitably be unable to calm down. Therefore, Never let third parties know about this matter until you and me.”
"Of course I understand this." Yao Qian nodded and said, "He didn't know about this at all."
