The next day, Meng Zhong told Le Yi's decision to all his companions, which shocked Meng Hu, Hua Hu, Le Jin and others.

However, in terms of "strategic", Meng Hu, Hua Hu, Le Jin and others could not give any good suggestions. In the past, such things were Meng Zhong, Meng Sui, Le Yi and the other four discussed and decided, so they could not tell whether Le Yi's trip to Yan State was beneficial to Song State.

But one thing is certain, that is, they are reluctant to let Le Yi leave.

In fact, Le Yi is not the case?

When Le Yi was in Zhongshan Kingdom, he had not many companions around him. Only a few military books passed down from his ancestors. However, since he met Meng Zhong and his group, Le Yi's life has become much more colorful. In terms of talent, Meng Zhong, Meng Sui, and Xiang Liao can compete with him. On weekdays, Meng Hu, Hua Hu and others would pull him into the water - just like Meng Hu and Hua Hu followed the army Sima Dou Xing to the city last night, and this group of people did not forget to drag Le Yi into the water. After all, among the group, Le Yi looked the most serious.

In short, the friendship with these companions made Le Yi feel quite reluctant.

But Le Yi also understood that if he stayed by Meng Zhong's side, he could not help his companions, nor could he help Song State. Meng Zhong was no less than him in leading troops to fight. In terms of training soldiers, Meng Sui could also take the lead. As for the affairs in the army, Xiang Liao could also manage it in an orderly manner. Since that is the case, why not go to Yan State to do something that Meng Zhong, Meng Sui, Xiang Liao and others could not do?

"Or why should I go to Yan State with Ah Xu to help Ah Yi with help?"

After thinking for a while, Le Jin said seriously.

Hearing this, Le Yi shook his head and said, "You stay with A Zhong... A Zhong just took office as the guard of Fangcheng. It was the time to use people. According to my estimate, the Wei State may have to fight in the past two years. However, Yan State has surrendered to Qi State, so there should be no wars..." Speaking of this, he blinked his eyes rarely and joked: "It's not me that except A Zhong, A Sui, Xiang Liao, and the others, even if the others go to Yan State, they may not be of any help."

Indeed, among their companions, they actually did not lack the experience of leading troops to fight, but when it was their turn to govern the country, the gap would be huge. Even Meng Zhong, Meng Sui, Xiang Liao and others never tried to manage and govern a city, let alone Meng Hu and Hua Hu. They were reckless men who only knew how to lead troops to fight. Let these people follow them to Yan State. As long as there was no war in Yan State, it would be almost impossible for these people to do anything.

Of course, Le Yi said this just to dilute the sadness of parting.

Everyone actually understood this point. After Le Yi finished speaking, Hua Hu and Le Jin immediately jumped up and said in anger: "You have never seen me manage cities. How can you determine that we do not have the talent in this area?"

"What I said!" Meng Hu also spoke with confidence. Unfortunately, everyone looked at him with disgust, which made Meng Hu feel very sad.

Although Meng Hu had not read many books, he led troops to fight with pure intuition and had no experience in governing cities, he knew that he had such talents!

Just as everyone was pretending to be arguing, Meng Zhong said in a deep voice: "None of us will feel at ease when you go to Yan State alone. Since this is the case... let Rongfu accompany you to Yan State."

"Me?" Among the crowd, Rong Feng was quite surprised.

Meng Zhong did not answer Rongfu directly, but after looking at the former, he said to Le Yi: "Rongfu was once a brave soldier from my Song State. He was valued by the prince (Daiwu) for his bravery, but I think he was really talented to serve as a guard beside me... At present, Yan State is just using people. With Rongfu's talent, I believe that he will have a place in Yan State."

Hearing this, Le Yi turned his head and looked at Rongfu.

As Meng Zhong said, Rong Feng is actually a warrior, but it has to be said that it is almost impossible for him to have the opportunity to display his skills around Meng Zhong and others.

At least in terms of leading troops to fight, Meng Hu, Hua Hu, Mu Wu, Wu Ying, Le Jin and others are all not inferior to Rongfu, and these people are closer to Meng Zhong. In front of these people, Rongfu is indeed difficult to have a chance to excel - Meng Zhong is actually not short of generals.

But if Rongfen followed Le Yi to Yan State, Rongfen could serve as Le Yi's deputy general and help Le Yi in military affairs.

Of course, most of the people who can help Le Yi for the time being are only training soldiers. After all, Rong Qi has no chance to accumulate experience while serving as a guard by Meng Zhong during this period.

But no matter what, it is a good thing to have a familiar person around you.

"this……"

After hesitating for a while, Le Yi turned to look at Rongfu: "Rongfu, what do you think?"

"this……"

Rong Fu showed a hesitation on his face and said hesitantly: "The prince sent me here to protect Meng Sima..."

Seeing his face hesitant, Meng Zhong patted his shoulder and said, "Ronghua, you are a talent. I originally planned to say that if I can become the Hedong Guard this time, I will hand over one of the cities to you so that you can slowly accumulate experience. But you have also seen the current situation. I have only been involved in one Fangcheng Guard... I treat you as a companion, so I tell you the truth. If it takes me ten years to get into the Hedong Guard in Wei State, you will be completely delayed by me... At present, Ayi is heading to Yan State alone, and Yan State is lacking in talents. When you arrive in Yan State, you will definitely become a general, and you can help Ayi with your help."

After hearing Meng Zhong's words, Rongfu fell into deep thought.

He also wanted to confer a title as a marquis to glorify his family, so he made up his mind to follow Meng Zhong, even if he followed Meng Zhong from Song to Wei.

But the problem is that Meng Zhong is not short of generals, such as Meng Hu, Hua Hu, Mu Wu, and others. He will pick them out casually. Whether fighting alone or marching, he is no match for the other party, let alone Cao Chun, Wei Xu, Cai Cheng and other newly recruited generals.

I have to say that it is indeed difficult for him to take the lead on Meng Zhong's side.

But it is different to go to Yan State with Le Yi. Yan State is now short of talents. Even if he is like this, he might be able to get into the position of Sima of the Army. Then he gradually accumulates experience and may be on par with Meng Hu, Hua Hu and others in the future.

Just like what Meng Zhong said, he really treated him as a companion so that he would consider his future.

Thinking of this, Rong Fen looked at Meng Zhong gratefully, nodded and said, "It is really a blessing for Rong Fen to be able to meet with all of you in this life!...I will not hide my thoughts. I want to go to Yan State with 'Sama' to see if there is a chance to make a name for himself, but if I leave, Meng Sima, you..."

As if he guessed Rongfu's thoughts, Meng Zhong smiled and said, "Rongfu, in your opinion, do I really need a guard to protect me?"

After hearing this, Rongfu couldn't help laughing.

Indeed, although Meng Zhong looked like a scholar without any strength after wearing a robe, in fact, Meng Zhong had never stopped exercising over the years - in terms of force, Meng Zhong could actually be among the top three among their group of companions, but he was not like Meng Hu, Hua Hu and others were keen on showing off their martial arts and courage.

Thinking of this, Rong Feng also felt relieved.

On the same day, Meng Zhong and others drank a farewell wine at Duan Gan's mansion. After the drink was finished, Meng Zhong, Meng Hu, Meng Sui and others sent Le Yi and Rong Qi out of the east of Daliang City ten miles east of Daliang City.

Before leaving, Meng Zhong stretched out his hands to hold the shoulders of Le Yi and Rong Qi, and solemnly instructed: "When you go out, be sure to pay attention to safety... Ayi, sometimes you are too straightforward and act like a slut. When you meet someone you don't like, you will not only treat you coldly, but also make mockery. You need to pay more attention when you are in Yan State."

After hearing this, Le Yi looked at Meng Zhong with a strange expression and said angrily: "It's your turn to say this? How did you make a grudge with Tian Wen? Did I pull you from behind? But what happened? You still broke the skin with Tian Wen..."

"Is this happening?"

Meng Zhong suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

From the side, everyone laughed.

During this period, Xiang Liao said a fair word: "In terms of calmness, Ayi is actually more calmer than A Zhong, but Ayi's mouth is too toxic, and often one sentence can make people half-exhaust..."

Hearing the words "poisonous" and all the companions nodded.

Think about why the soldiers of the Xinwei Army were afraid of Le Yi more than Meng Zhong when they were in Zhao State? Isn’t it because Le Yi spoke too harshly when training them? That would be able to piss people to death.

Hearing this, Le Yi smiled and teased Xiang Liao and said, "It's not your turn to say this... I'm poisoning in my mouth, but you're poisoning in my heart."

Indeed, among all the people, Xiang Liao is the most important thing.

For example, when Meng Zhong ambushed Lian Po's army in Zhao State, he set a fire in the forest. At that time, Meng Zhong, Meng Hu, Hua Hu and others were all a little unbearable. After all, the other party was also a soldier of Zhao State, but what did Xiang Liao say? - Unfortunately, there was no turbid oil in the forest!

Perhaps this scholar who looks innocent is actually the darkest and most cruel one among these people.

"Don't say it so bluntly."

After being demolished by Le Yi, Xiang Liao said in dismay, which once again caused everyone's laughter.

At this time, Meng Zhongze was reminding Rong Fen: "... Rong Fen, I know your courage, but you still lack a lot of experience in leading troops to fight. When you have the chance, you should take a look at the military strategy.... Military strategy cannot directly help you defeat the enemy, but it can increase your knowledge and help you immediately think of what tactics to defeat the opponent when encountering similar battle situations in the future, and follow this idea to speculate on the opponent's ideas... In this regard, you can ask Ayi for more advice."

"Yeah!" Rong Fu nodded solemnly.

At the end, Meng Zhong held the shoulders of Le Yi and Rong Qi, lowered his voice and said, "In the end, you two protect yourself. If you don't stay in Yan Country, you might as well come to my side again... In my heart, you, like Ah Hu and the others, are all my brothers."

"Um!"

Le Yi and Rong Feng nodded with emphasis.

After seeing you for a thousand miles, I had to part. After Meng Zhong, Meng Hu, Meng Sui and others saw you off, Le Yi and Rong Fen finally boarded a chariot for transportation and embarked on a journey to Yan State.

Meng Zhong and others have known Le Yi for almost four years, and have known Rong Qi for two years. This time, they left for Yan State. Of course, it is impossible to say that they are not sad.

But Meng Zhong knew that Le Yi went to Yan State, which was the best choice for the moment.

As for Rongfu, on the one hand, he hopes Rongfu can help Le Yi with his help, and on the other hand, he also hopes that Rongfu can find a suitable place for his talent to be displayed.

But after all, he was not valued by Wei State. If he was already the Hedong Guard of Wei State at this moment, he might not have needed Le Yi to go to Yan State to prepare for the future, and Rong Feng could also get a position where he could display his talents.

Unfortunately, he is now just a guardian of the square city and a guardian of the Wei border.

But at this moment, he didn't care about sadness.

After all, although Fangcheng is remote, it is undeniable that it is the southern fortress of Wei State and the basis for Meng Zhong's start in Wei State.

Looking at Le Yi and Rong Qi and his two chariots disappeared from their sight. Meng Zhong was silent for a moment, turned around and said in a deep voice to his companions: "Let's go, let's clean up, we have to go to Fangcheng... Ayi has gone to Yan State, and we have to work harder in Wei State. In the future, Ayi has already made a title of lord and marquis. We are still just guarding Fangcheng..."

Hearing this, Meng Hu, Hua Hu and other companions sneered, but immediately restrained their smiles and showed a solemn look on their faces.

Beside, Xiang Liao said calmly: "Tian Wen can't suppress us all his life, and we can't have only one Fangcheng Guard in our life..."

"Well said!"

Meng Zhong nodded, then looked at his companions and said, "The first step we are waiting now is to rush to Fangcheng, gather my family brothers such as Mengyi Mengshi, Leshi, and Huashi, and reorganize an army with this as the core. They can resist Qi and Zhao in the east and contain Qin in the west. This army will be the guarantee for us in Wei in the future..."

Upon hearing this, Meng Hu, Hua Hu, Meng Sui, Xiang Liao, Wu Ying, Le Jin, Le Xu and others nodded heavily.

After a while, when Meng Zhong returned to the city and returned to Duan Gan's mansion, he happened to see Duan Gan Yin and Tian An and the other two talking in the main hall.

After seeing Meng Zhong, Duan Ganyin waved his hand to summon Meng Zhong to the front of him and asked in surprise: "I heard from the servants in the mansion that anyone among your companions has left?"

After hearing this, Meng Zhong shook his head and corrected: "It's not about leaving, but for the sake of consistent goals."

Upon hearing this, Duan Ganyin and Tian An looked at each other and felt that Meng Zhong's mood was slightly ups and downs at this moment.

However, they didn't want to participate in the affairs of these juniors, so after a few words, Duan Ganyin talked about the main business, that is, Meng Zhong became the guard of Fang Cheng.

"...I know that with A Zhong's talent, you are too talented to be in Fangcheng. However, since the king's order has been released, there is no way to change it. However, we can change it..."

From the side, Tian An interrogated: "Brother Duan Gan and I think so. Ah Zhong, you go to Fangcheng first to take up your post. Don't leave the king with his talent. Stay there for a while... Well, maybe before the end of this year, you, Uncle Duan Gan, will invite you to Hedong again and try to move you from Fangcheng..."

After hearing this, Meng Zhong shook his head and said, "The two uncles Shi's kind-hearted boys are grateful, but the boy has decided to start from Fangcheng."

"Start from Fangcheng?"

Tian An frowned and said, "A Zhong, do you know where Fangcheng is? It is in Wandi, on the border of the three kingdoms of Wei, Han and Chu. I heard that the local poor people are rare, you... don't act irritably."

Seeing this, Meng Zhong shook his head and explained: "Uncle Tian misunderstood. The boy is meaningless. But the boy thinks that Fangcheng may be the most suitable place for the boy now... Tian Wen deliberately suppressed me, just to make me unhappy, just because I once told him that he was unhappy. As long as he was favored by the King of Wei and still served as the Prime Minister of Wei, even if two uncles Shi came forward, it would be difficult to transfer the boy to Hedong. Take a step back and say that even if he broke up with Tian Wen for this and transferred the boy to Hedong, Tian Wen will definitely try to make things difficult for the boy from other aspects. Instead of doing so, I might as well stay in Fangcheng and retrain an army for Wei. This will not only enhance the strength of Wei, but also increase the boy's influence in the heart of the King of Wei in the future... And Tian Wen, when he saw that I stayed in Fangcheng honestly, he should not make any intentional embarrassment..."

“Um…”

After listening to Meng Zhong's explanation, Duan Ganyin and Tian An stroked their beards and pondered for a moment.

They must admit that although Meng Zhong is young, he is indeed Zhou Xiang considering things.
To be continued...
