Chapter 496: Convincing Others with Virtue

Outside the big tent, there was the characteristic tinkling sound of the infantry's iron feet, "General." Immediately, the footsteps stopped at the door of the big tent, and the infantry's voice sounded.

"Infantry, come in!" Gao Yuan shouted.

The curtain was lifted, and the infantry stepped in with a gust of cold wind, and said with a smile: "General, many people have come to the city, and they want to see you, General!"

"Oh, so fast?" Gao Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Who are they all?"

"A group of county soldiers headed by Wang Yulong. Now there is no leader in the county of Liaoxi City, and it is this Wang Yulong who is in charge of various affairs!" The infantry said.

"Please come in!" Gao Yuan stood up, shook the ashes on his body, clapped his hands and said, "This person can know how to advance and retreat, understand current affairs, and he can be regarded as a character. I can get Liaoxi City without any effort. A credit!"

Ye Zhong also stood up, "Then the general will resign."

"General Ye, where is Ye Feng? You can talk to him carefully. He is still a child. There are some things that he can't figure out or see through. Seeing that I refuse to send troops to Langya immediately, he must be unhappy. I don't want him to be unhappy. , like this, Jing'er won't be happy either."

"The general understands!" Seeing Gao Yuan caring so much about Ye Feng and Ye Jing'er, Ye Zhong was also happy, "Although Ye Feng is young, he has read a lot of history books in the past few years. If you analyze the relationship with him clearly, he will naturally understand."

"Then there is General Lao Ye." Gao Yuan smiled and nodded.

"You don't dare to talk about your duties." Ye Zhong bowed and retreated.

After Gao Yuan sat back to the big case in the account, he picked up a report and read it. Disorderly footsteps sounded from outside the tent, and the voice of the infantry also came in, "Master Wang, Mr. He, please come in."

Putting down the report in his hand, Gao Yuan couldn't help but stare blankly at the group of people who entered the account. He was led by an old man with white beard and hair. This person must be Wang Yulong, the oldest person. Except for a few people, most of them were actually wearing ordinary clothes.

"Wang Yulong kowtows to the general!" As soon as the old man entered the tent, he pushed the golden mountain, turned down the jade pillar, and bowed down. The other county captains followed Wang Yulong and fell to the ground. "There is no master in western Liaoning, and people are panicking. Wang Yulong led the county lieutenants and government officials to ask General Gao to enter the city immediately to take charge of affairs in western Liaoning."

Gao Yuan walked around from behind the case in a hurry, bent down and helped Wang Yulong up, "Wang Xianwei, please get up quickly, isn't this going to kill me?" He said loudly: "General Wang and my Uncle Lu Hong are is a comrade in arms,

Brother, I am an elder, how can Gao Yuan deserve such a great gift from your uncles, please hurry up. "

Wang Yulong had never met Gao Yuan before, but he had only heard of Gao Yuan's many legends. With his reputation, Gao Yuan must be the kind of young man who is ambitious and domineering. Han Yilongsun was satisfied when he retired and returned home, but he did not expect that the other party would treat him so courteously.

When he raised his head, what he saw was a smiling, approachable face. There was no evil or murderous look on his face, just like a hospitable little brother next door.

"Infantry, don't move the chairs and the brazier for the old county captain. The county captain Wang is old, and the weather is freezing, and the big tent is not cold-resistant. The old county captain must have fallen from his body all his life. There are a lot of problems, and the old county lieutenant can't be made to suffer."

"Okay, General!" The infantryman moved the chair and the brazier with a smile, "General, how about I get two more braziers?"

"Okay, you are thoughtful, and get some more small horses, so that everyone can sit around the brazier and talk." Gao Yuan glanced at the others apologetically, "Everyone, I'm sorry, there is nothing in the army. , I didn’t have two chairs, so I brought some small horses, and everyone felt wronged.”

Everyone was dumbfounded. When they left the city, they had thought a lot, and they never thought that the scene of meeting Gao Yuan would be like this.

The infantry's hands and feet were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they brought in two more braziers, and a dozen or so small tents, and put the three braziers together, and within the big tent, a wave of warmth rose immediately.

Gao Yuan dragged a small notebook over, sat down next to Wang Yulong, pointed to the rest of the small notebook, and said with a smile: "Everyone, please sit down and talk."

Everyone, look at me and I look at you. In the end, He Baotian was the first to pull a small book, and said to Gao Yuan that he was offended, and then sat down on the other side of Wang Yulong, and the rest of the people flinched. Sitting down shrunk.

The infantry acted as Gao Yuan's personal bodyguard, and made hot tea for everyone after running before and after. The voice seemed to be resounding from outside the sky. Infantry, this is Gao Yuan's confidant and hero. After Gao Yuan made a fuss in Jicheng, after losing one foot, I thought he was useless, but this man is really brave. It's scary, but with an iron foot, he still became a cavalry general in Gao Yuan's army. They never thought that the person who served them before and after running was actually such a famous person.

Gao Yuan sat next to Wang Yulong, but he never mentioned anything about Liaoxi City. He just picked up some old things and chatted with everyone. These things were all mentioned by Lu Hong and him before. , and Huang Desheng and other old people followed Zhang Shouyue to fight on the front line. Wang Yulong was naturally one of them, but he was not as famous as these people.

Sure enough, when these past events were mentioned, Wang Yulong's eyes became a little hazy. An old man, caught in the memories of the past, naturally felt a little hard to extricate himself. The joy of being a brother's child, finally grown up.

The two of them spoke with Xu Xu in their mouths sometimes seriously, sometimes elatedly, but they looked at the others dumbfounded. The other people were a little older than Wang Yulong, so those old things back then naturally couldn't get in their mouths.

Although they can't intervene or speak, but seeing this situation, everyone is naturally relieved. Gao Yuan is so approachable, and everyone doesn't have to worry about the road ahead. It seems that this time, inviting Gao Yuan into the city is the most correct thing in his life a decision.

He Baotian was also Zhang Shouyue's personal soldier, but when he joined this team, the war was over, and Gao Zida was also killed. He was regarded as the last group of people. Looking at Gao Yuan and Wang Yulong's hot chat at the moment, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it's very human Sure enough, you can't use ordinary people's thinking to guess, just look at Gao Yuan's attitude towards them, you can know that Zhang Junbao is really not worthy of carrying Gao Yuan's shoes.

Seeing that Wang Yulong introduced the past to Gao Yuan, he was unable to extricate himself, he coughed softly, "General Gao, please forgive me for being unreasonable, Lieutenant Wang County, the reason why we came to see General Gao this time, please ask Wang County Wei reported to General Gao."

Gao Yuan smiled and nodded at him, Wang Yulong also woke up abruptly, looked at Gao Yuan apologetically and said, "Look at me, I am really old, and when I talk about the past, I can't extricate myself, General Gao, you have also seen the situation in western Liaoning right now. , the old county guard died in peace, and the second son died of injustice. Zhang Junbao, a man with no conscience, is not qualified to be the governor of Liaoxi, but Liaoxi cannot be left alone for a day. Except for General Gao, no one is qualified to take on this position, so General Gao, please come to the city to preside over the important event earlier!"

Gao Yuan looked at Wang Yulong ponderously, "Wang Xianwei, to tell you the truth, I have no ambitions for this Liaoxi City. If you want to come, Wang Xianwei also knows that I already have my own refuge deep in the grassland. Therefore, managing the prairie is my next focus. This time I led troops to Liaoxi City only because of what Zhang Junbao did. Since this bastard is at large, I originally wanted to lead my troops back after beheading Zhang Junbao in front of the old county guard's tomb."

Hearing Gao Yuan's words, Wang Yulong was very surprised, looking at the other person's face, listening to the other person's words, it seemed that there was no intention of cheating at all, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "General Gao, this can't be helped, Liaoxi is already like this now Look, if the general doesn't come to preside over the overall situation, wouldn't Liaoxi continue to be corrupted? Now that the Donghu people have won a big victory, they must retaliate against Dayan, who raised his troops. The general has a way to retreat. This Liaoxi can't go up and down, and the general won't come Presiding over the overall situation, what should I do if the Donghu people call?"

He Baotian stood up and clasped his fists, "General Gao, please take the overall situation of Liaoxi as the top priority and take up the post of Liaoxi prefect. Only the general's great reputation can deter Donghu and prevent them from committing crimes in Liaoxi!"

"General Gao, please take the overall situation into consideration!" Everyone sitting around the brazier stood up together, clasped their fists and bowed to the ground, saying in unison.

"Everyone please get up, please get up!" Gao Yuan looked at the people standing tall and said with some difficulty: "Everyone, to tell you the truth, if I enter Liaoxi City and become the county guard, I'm afraid some people will It is said that I killed Zhang Junbao not to avenge the old sheriff, Brother Shubao and others, but to say that I deliberately wanted to seize Liaoxi. black pot."

"Since General Gao speaks openly and aboveboard, why should he be afraid of others' words?" Wang Yulong stood up, "I, Wang Yulong, who dares to speak nonsense in western Liaoning, although I am old, can still carry a knife, so I will definitely cut off his tongue myself."

"The old county lieutenant, please sit down." Gao Yuan stretched out his hand to support Wang Yulong. "The old county lieutenant has a heart, but Gao Yuan is panicked. How about a long-term plan for this matter?"

"General Gao, this is the top priority in western Liaoning right now. How can we discuss it in a long-term way? People in western Liaoning are in panic and chaos. If General Gao can't support the overall situation in western Liaoning immediately but walks away, I'm afraid that western Liaoning will become a member of the Eastern Hu people. It’s the racecourse.” Wang Yulong pushed the chair away, knelt down on the ground, “If General Gao refuses to agree, the old man will kneel and die here.”

"General Gao, please enter the city!" There was a clatter of small horses falling over, and everyone in the room knelt on the ground except the infantry.

The infantry on one side looked at these people who were kneeling on the ground, and they really admired Gao Yuan in their hearts.

It is easy to enter the city, difficult to deal with people's hearts, and it is even more difficult to subdue these old guards of Zhang Shouyue, but in the hands of Gao Yuan, it is not as simple as a matter, and it is easily settled.

He couldn't help but think of what Gao Yuan said to him earlier, Convince people with virtue!

The infantryman laughed in his heart, he is indeed convincing people with virtue. Of course, the premise is that your sword is sharp enough and your soldiers are strong enough, and then you will win people with virtue.
