After Yuan Huaiying and his party learned about Ha Ping's murder, they stayed where they were. First, they were worried about the safety of Meizhuang Town. Second, Meizhuang Town was leaderless and had no arrangements to receive the propaganda mission. Third, Yuan Huaiying and Zhuge Chen

They all believed that staying where they were and waiting for reinforcements was the best option.

After the Jiujiang Navy received the signal, they rushed to the waters near Meizhuang that night. Since there was no one in charge, the soldiers of Meizhuang immediately gave up the Meizhuang Pier and the entire delegation stayed on the ship.

.

In the early morning of the next day, Huo Youji also hurried over with his personal guards. Seeing that they were all safe, he felt much more at ease. After a brief salute, Huo Youji said: "It is good that you are safe, but it is inappropriate for the navy to station at Meizhuang Pier.

, if I stay here for a long time, I am afraid that General Xia Wenyu will be suspicious. Either way, it will be a matter of time for Daxuan to settle in Meizhuang Pier. If it is done, it will be good to have the navy accompanying me."

Yuan Huaiying and Zhuge Chen looked at each other. They really had not considered this matter. It was a good thing that Huo Youji did not criticize him.

Huo Youji glanced at the three of them and said, "The nine ships stationed at Meizhuang Pier will be left to you. Mr. Yu, you are a member of the old navy. I will entrust you with the power to command this navy."

Here you go."

The three of them were all shocked, especially Yu Shan. At this time, Huo Youji was so confident about him. He was indeed a great country, and indeed he had a heroic spirit. At this moment, he felt even more that his original choice was right.

With tears in Yu Shan's eyes, he bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you so much for your trust! Yu Shan will certainly live up to your trust!"

Yuan Huaiying glanced at Huo Youji and thought to himself: "This prince-in-law is really good at seizing opportunities. He has trained all the Jiujiang navy. When doing business, he naturally obeys the commander's orders. If he has the heart to rebel, who can command him except Huo Youji?"

Yes, the Prince Consort is very resourceful! Your Majesty has great vision!"

After the three sent Huo Youji away, people from the National Security Agency hurriedly came to report, "General Zhuge, a large number of people are coming from the direction of Ruihong Town and Yuhan. They will arrive at Meizhuang in the afternoon at the most. Do we want to intercept them?"

The three of them looked at each other, and then Yuan Huaiying said: "Mr. Yu, I thought General Xia Wenyu was here."

Yu Shan nodded, agreed, and said: "Yu thinks Xia Wenyu is here to take over Meizhuang. We don't need to be nervous, let alone intercept him."

Having said that, Zhuge Chen still tried his best to arrange defense. If Xia Wenyu got upset and came straight to them, he would have to deal with it.

As expected, the army coming from the north did not rush towards Meizhuang Pier, but directly entered Meizhuang Town. In the evening, someone from Meizhuang Town called the door at the pier.

"The last general He Bing has met General Yu!"

"He Bing is here, you two, let me go and take a look first." Yu Shan said in a consultative tone. After the incident outside Meizhuang and Huo Youji's order, Yu Shan even recognized his identity as a minister of Daxuan. For some reason, he had this

Just ask.

"Well, Guo Bin, He Bing, and Ha Ping are Xia Wenyu's troika. Two of them have been damaged so far. Xia Wenyu is probably anxious and hesitant now." Yuan Huaiying said with a smile.

"Mr. Yu, Zhuge Chen will come with you." Seeing that Yu Shan was about to refuse, Zhuge Chen said firmly: "Sir, you are in charge of the navy at Meizhuang Pier, but your safety is the general's responsibility, so please don't

decline."

Seeing this, Yu Shan had no choice but to agree. He knew that Zhuge Chen couldn't resist, and Yuan Huaiying on the side did not say anything but also approved of Zhuge Chen's approach.

"He Bing, where is Wen Yu?" Yu Shan asked straight to the point.

"General, General Xia is seriously ill after hearing about General Haping. He is temporarily staying in Yuhan City, otherwise he would have welcomed the general in person!" He Bing replied in a voice like a bell.

"It's just the right time for him to be sick, maybe he's not trying to avoid me, right?" Yu Shan said unceremoniously.

"General, General Xia is indeed ill. I dare not lie!"

"That's all, tell me, what are you doing here?"

"The general knows that there is no reason why he should not personally welcome the general when he comes back. But why is the general with Xuan Ren?" He Bing asked knowingly, and it was obvious that he was not happy about it.

Zhuge Chen looked at him coldly and said nothing. Feeling Zhuge Chen's hostility, He Bing directly drew his sword and pointed it at Zhuge Chen, angrily scolding: "You Xuanren dare to threaten the general, I will definitely kill you today!"

"General He, you are so majestic!" Zhuge Chen pushed back forcefully.

Seeing the two people at war, Yu Shan immediately smashed the tea cup to pieces and said angrily: "What are you doing! He Bing, I am already a minister of Daxuan! Are you going to kill me too?!"

He Bing turned around and knelt down and said, "General, I don't dare! It's just that General feels that we are in today's situation because of His Majesty's great favor. I don't understand!"

Yu Shan was shocked by He Bing's words and didn't know what to say for a moment. He thought for a moment and comforted him: "He Bing, you and I are both from Fujian and Yue. You know the hardships of the people in Fujian and Yue, otherwise you wouldn't go to sea to make a living.

, Now the national policy of Daxuan is based on the people, and His Majesty Daxuan loves the people like his own son. Such a monarch is worthy of our service, do you understand?"

He Bing still bowed his head and knelt down, and replied: "General, I don't understand, so please forgive me. General Xia said that if the general still remembers us old brothers, please pack lightly and travel to Yuhan for a while!"

After hearing this, Yu Shan narrowed his eyes and said: "He Bing, there is no need to hide it. Since I have joined Daxuan, I sincerely mean it. You let me go and sweat. I have nothing to dare, I am only afraid of Daning."

Are you and Da Chu’s envoy also there?”

He Bing replied: "General, I dare not hide it. Daning's envoy has indeed met General Xia, but General Xia has driven them away. From Minyue to Yuzhang, our brothers and Daning will fight to the death, but Chenjing

There are indeed people over there."

"Hmph! Xia Wenyu has a good plan! He is hiding in Yuhan now. Xia Wenyuan is stationed over at Kangshan, right?" Yu Shan said coldly.

"Yes, brother Wenyuan is currently stationed at Kangshan to prevent sneak attacks by the Xuan and Ning armies. Otherwise, Kangshan may be the next Meizhuang Pier!"

"Confused! If Daxuan wants to move you, why did you ask me to come?! The stationing at Meizhuang Pier was my order!"

Seeing that He Bing was still holding his head, Yu Shan stepped forward and kicked him to the ground, saying: "Let's set off immediately, I'll leave with you!"

Just as Zhuge Chen was about to stop him, Yu Shan continued: "General Zhuge was appointed by the imperial court. He and his men must go with me!"

He Bing originally disagreed, but Yu Shan insisted that there was nothing he could do. The final result was that He Bing stayed at Meizhuang, Yuan Huaiying stayed at Meizhuang Pier, and Yu Shan took Zhuge Chen and a thousand guards to Yu Han.

Yuhan is a logistics supply place for the Navy. Xia Wenyu has always liked to live in military camps. For some reason, he rarely goes to Yuhan City. One of the reasons for choosing Yuhan this time is that it is a place where fish and dragons are mixed. No one dares to attack easily. At the same time,

It is also a good place to gather naval generals and officials. More importantly, it is inconvenient for each family to mobilize troops, but it is convenient for him to mobilize troops and horses, and everything can be done under his control.

Xia Wenyu's heart has never been at peace since Du Heng moved the city to join Daxuan. In the past few days, he heard that Guo Bin had joined Daxuan in Sanyang Town. After Ha Ping's death, his heart became even more uneasy.

He originally wanted to continue Haping's work and go to Meizhuang to meet Yushan. This was his old boss and he had a favor for reinventing him. However, he changed his mind after hearing that the Jiujiang Navy of the Xuan Army settled at Meizhuang Wharf.

When he turned to Yuhan, he was betting on whether Yushan would dare to come to Yuhan to meet him.

Just when he was hesitating, his personal attendant came to report that Yu Shan and others had arrived twenty miles outside Yuhan City. This news suddenly stunned Xia Wenyu. He never expected that Yu Shan would come so quickly. He thought

Even if Yu Shan dared to come, he would have to wait for some time, but he didn't expect that people had already arrived.

Xia Wenyu hurriedly tidied up his appearance and trotted on his horse to go out of the city to greet him. Xia Wenyu already had other thoughts in his heart.

Chenjing's envoy was shocked when he learned that Yu Shan had arrived. Xia Wenyu was not very friendly to them in the first place. Now that Yu Shan has arrived, it is likely that the ownership of this navy has already been determined. Yu Shan arrived so fast.

They had no time to plan and incite Kang Shan's naval forces to attack Yu Shan. After thinking for a long time, there was only one way to do it. Let's go all out, otherwise they would not be able to explain to His Majesty Chen Jing.

Xia Wenyu personally went out of the city to greet him. After entering the mansion, Yu Shan looked unhappy and said with a smile: "Isn't General Xia sick? His face is rosy now, but he has recovered from his illness?"

Xia Wenyu replied awkwardly: "The general is joking. I am humbled by my position, but I have to worry about the general's troubles."

"Oh? General Xia is so famous. He has made brilliant achievements in battles from Minyue to Dahu, but he still has a problem in his heart and needs me to solve his doubts?"

Xia Wenyu could tell that Yu Shan still had objections to him, so he simply said it, "General, it's not Xia Wenyu who is ignorant, but the lives of 20,000 brothers depend on one person in a humble position, so I don't dare to make such a decision easily!"

"You must be aware of what happened in Yuzhang. General Du and I are now free. Daxuan has not done anything to us. Our brothers have all been settled. What are you still hesitating about?"

"General, General Du was originally from Chengdu. Du has a good relationship with high-ranking officials and famous generals in Chengdu. I heard from my humble position that General Du once served Emperor Daxuan. The emperor will be kind to him because of his old friendship. And we are all from Fujian and Yue pirates.

, Later, because General Du joined Da Chu, and now he has rebelled against Chu and returned to Xuan, the brothers are somewhat upset, and many people have approached me privately, so I have to be cautious." Xia Wenyu confided all the doubts and entanglements in his heart.

out.

"Now that I'm here, I'm not from the Daxuan clan. There were people from my Yu clan who were loyal to Daning back then. Now the governor of Yuhang in Daning is from my Yu clan. Has Daxuan ever treated me lightly because of this?" Yu Shan knew that Xia Wenyu

After that, his tone softened.

"We are all people who make a living on the water. If we join Daxuan, we will definitely move westward. How will we know how to farm? What will happen to our lives?"

"Hahaha! Xia Wenyu, Xia Wenyu, when will you become like this, okay! Since you have doubts, I can tell you that His Majesty Daxuan has already made a decree. As long as you, Xia Wenyu, are willing to abandon the secret and turn to the light, the Daxuan Navy will accept it!"

Then he looked at Xia Wenyu and said, "And you are one of the three major naval commanders of Daxuan."

Xia Wenyu was stunned. It was too sudden and he blurted out, "General, do you really mean what you said?"

"Seriously! I guarantee it with my life!"

Xia Wenyu stood up and paced back and forth, and after nearly a stick of incense, he said: "May I ask which part of the navy Emperor Daxuan asked me to take charge of?"

"His Majesty's decree, Xia Wenyu is an extraordinary talent in the navy. He can be the commander of the Jiujiang Navy. He is the same as the general of the general's office and is only under the command of the commander's office." Zhuge Chen spoke at the right time. This was the best opportunity.

Xia Wenyu exhaled a long breath and said firmly: "The criminal Xia Wenyu is willing to serve His Majesty Emperor Daxuan!"

Yu Shan took a sip of tea and said softly: "Send it to Chengdu."
