Chapter 473 Withdrawal

8., mouth.
But Xu Hai and Xu Hong joined forces and went back to the camp.
"Brother, is that silence reliable?" Xu Hong asked.
"No matter whether he is trustworthy or not," Xu Hai said: "They are officials, we are bandits, and they can't pee in a pot."
"Then are you here to see him?" Xu Hong's question pointed to the conflict in Xu Hai's heart, which made him frown. Of course, Xu Hai can't tell the truth, my brother is also confused.
In fact, it has been a long time since he learned that his wife was pregnant, Xu Hai has been in a contradictory state of mind. On the one hand, he also felt that he should consider the future carefully and see if there is any chance to wash his hands; on the other hand, his past experience reminded him that the risk factor of this move is tantamount to seeking a skin with a tiger, and if he doesn't do it well, he will have to pay his life together.
When he returned to the camp, it was already dark, and He Xinyin was already waiting there. He sat down and had a hot meal, which made Xu Hai deeply feel that it was better for relatives in the world.
When he had almost finished eating, He Xinyin asked, "How are you talking about today?"
"Not very good," Xu Hai said while drinking the soup with big mouthfuls: "Sincere, it seems that he wants to provoke the relationship between Ye Ma and the others, and there is nothing new."
Xu Hong sat down and said while scattering rice: "That's right, don't look at who my elder brother is. Can he be fooled?"
Unexpectedly, Xu Hai said slowly: "Second, take someone to Ye Ma after dinner to see if he and Xin Wulang are there anything unusual?" As he said that, he put down the bowl and said in a deep voice: "Let's go and have a look. Go and take Ye Ma over, and I'll have a good talk with him."
"What's there to talk about with that old bastard?" Xu Hong said unhappily.
"I want to ask him what he planned?" Xu Hai said: "If you want to break up, just say it earlier. It will save me from getting into the intestines all day."
"Then I'll go and ask him." Xu Hong nodded and responded.
The next morning, Xu Hong arrived outside Shanghai, but saw that the city gate was closed and was under heavy guard.
", with us blocking us, why are they nervous?" Xu Hong cursed in a low voice and said, "Open the door! I am Xu Hong!"
"The head of the family, Xu Hong is here." The Shoucheng Primary School quickly passed the news to the county government where Ye Ma was entrenched. Ye Ma, who had not slept all night, said with a voice: "If you ask him what's wrong, just pass on a message if you have something to do. If you have nothing to do, just reply. They are not welcome here.
Since his younger brother brought him back and Xu Hai went to meet with Chen Si, he fell into fear. He was afraid that Xu Hai would take his head as his capital for his atonement. If Lu Ji hadn't stopped him, he would have left Shanghai City last night and found a boat to return to Zhoushan.
Why do you need to find a boat? Because the boats were burned by Liu Xian's navy." Although the navy's combat effectiveness was greatly reduced after leaving Yu Dazhuang, he could still do something within his ability, such as finding the harbor of the hukouzang ship, rushing in and burning it clean.
The soldier on the city gate tower poked his head and said, "Master Xu Er, we are the leader, just tell me if you have something to do."
"Are you a genius?" Xu Hong cursed: "Let Ye Ma roll the ball to see me quickly, otherwise I will twist his head off as a ball!" He is arrogant by nature, but mainly because he thinks that his thousands of brothers were sold by Ye Mazi, and he wishes he could swallow him alive!
I have to say that being able to fight and not employ people, and not even knowing people is Xu Hai's fatal weakness. Why did he send him here?
When the school was scolded by Xu Hong, it was naturally added with oil and vigilance to Ye Mazi, which made Ye Ma so angry that he smoked. You Xu Er, you bullied me at my doorstep! The tiger didn't show his power and thought I was a sick cat. So he ordered someone to hang up his armor for himself, and went to the top of the city with full arms, pointing at Xu Hong and cursing:
"Xu Laoer, do you want to twist my head off?"
Seeing Ye Mazi, Xu Hong realized that this was in someone’s nest, and the strong dragon could not suppress the local snake. Besides, he, the commander of the bare hands, couldn’t help but change his tone: “Ye family. You have to discuss this matter well. I came here kindly, why don’t you let me in.”
"Of course there is a reason not to let you in." Ye Ma said, "Tell me, why are you looking for me?" He believed his stuttering brother, and preconceived that the other party was a weasel to wish the chicken a New Year. He must have no kindness, but the above is a virtue of keeping people from thousands of miles away.
In Xu Hong's opinion, isn't he just a ghost in his heart? But when he thought of his brother's instructions, he had to patiently say: "My elder brother asks you to sit over and see when you have time?"
"I'm not available," Ye Ma refused, "Let your elder brother come to Shanghai. I'll prepare the beauties and wait for his big carriage." In his opinion, there is no good banquet, no good meeting, and Xu Hai is probably holding a Hongmen Banquet.
When Xu Hong heard this, he felt more and more guilty. He said to himself: "It seems that Shen Mo is right. This guy is going to sell my brother. He felt that he was right, so he was not interested in fighting and said a few words of scenes. He then fought back to the camp.
At this time, Lu Ji rushed over to hear the news, saw Xu Hong's figure leaving, and asked Ye Ma:
"What did he say?"
"That grandson" Ye Ma spat: "Please go to Xuhai Camp for a banquet. He wants to learn from the king. I am not Pei Gong!"
Lu Ji didn't hear the conversation between them. Hearing this, he didn't realize that something was different, and sighed and said: Come right, I have to be careful and ordered people to be on guard. Many scouts Guan Fafeng x" camp.
At the same time, someone asked someone to come to Wang Xijue. This time he was much more polite and said to him: "We are willing to negotiate with the court. Please bring the message back to Lord Shen, everything is easy to say." Then he sent someone a plate of gold and silver to Wang Xijue and gave him a gift out of the city.
Wang Xijue was ready to live in the enemy camp. Unexpectedly, just the next day, the other party's attitude changed a lot, which made him a little confused, so he had to go back and ask the adults to answer the questions.
B,,,, Xu Hong replied with a poisonous complaint, but Xu Hai was still a little disbelief, but in the evening, the scout came back to report and found that Shanghai City had significantly increased its vigilance and sent a lot of spies to Tongli Town. Xu Hai was finally speechless.
"Brother, Youdao is the best move first, but then the move will be a disaster. Why are you hesitating?" Xu Hong said gritting his teeth.
He Xinyin also added fire and said, "Yes. General, Ye Ma has obviously reached some agreement with the government. We have to make plans early and continue to break things up and suffer chaos!"
Xu Hai's face turned blue and white, his fists were clenched and opened, and finally he let out a long breath of turbid air and said, "The whole life of those who are young" to guard against those dogs and bastards day and night."
Disappointment appeared on Xu Hai and He Xinyin's faces, and they wanted to persuade him again. Xu Hai waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, even if you have to settle the score, go back to Zhoushan first. You can't fight here."
"Yes," the two had to respond, and then listened to Xu Hai: "As for the government, third brother, please go tomorrow and tell Chen Si that we are willing to return the prisoners and retreat voluntarily, but"
As he said that, he touched his bearded chin and said, "They have the intention to take out 500,000 taels. I will withdraw my troops immediately." This is really a thief. It's time for him to blackmail him a little bit. "Damn it, this time, he has evil spirits everywhere." Xu Hai finally said angrily: "It seems that he has to pay a visit to Jin Xiaomiao."
He pressed Xu Hai and said that Wang Xijue returned to Suzhou City. When he saw him safely, he was very happy and personally held a banquet to entertain his favorite student. During the meal, Wang Xijue expressed his question: "Is Ye Ma really ready to surrender?"
"How is it possible? This is not a child playing house?" Chen Shu shook his head and smiled: "Ye Ma said that negotiating is just a delaying strategy. The purpose is to see what Xu Hai should do."
"What will Xu Hai do?" Wang Xijue and Xu Shixing asked, "Will you fight with them?"
"He," Chen Si said with a glass of wine, "This man seems rude and impulsive, but in fact he is suspicious and worried. In this situation, he neither believes in us nor Ye Ma, so I guess. He will withdraw his troops first."
"Then let's let him poison it?" Wang Xijue couldn't help but say regretfully: "What a great opportunity."
"Oh, yes, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Silent nodded, took a sip of wine and said:
"It's hard for a good cook to cook without rice. We don't have the strength to eat him now, so we can only send the plague god away first." As he said that, his eyes turned to the north and said, "If he could come back in time, I would be able to complete this drama."
The two students were almost at the same time, who was they? They were silent but smiled without answering.
Facts have proved that silence is already a master of grasping people's hearts.
The next day, he was comforting the merchants who were approaching the collapse and letting them endure for a while.
But the same words have been said many times. In fact, the effect is lacking, and the merchants' faces are still sallow and dejected.
At this moment, the guard reported: "Sir, someone outside the city claimed to be Xu Hai's representative to ask for a visit."
Silently laughed and said, "I bet that this person must be here to negotiate peace."
"Sir, is Xu Hai finally going to withdraw his troops?" The merchants finally showed a hint of vitality.
"That's a must, he can no longer hold it back." Silent said confidently, obviously in a good mood.
When everyone saw that the adult was happy, they plucked up their courage and said, "Yes, sir, you can't do this again in the future. If not, tell Xu Hai, we can pay the protection fee."
"Confused" Chen Silent frowned and said, "Those people are insatiable. They sent Xu Hai, Wang Hai, Li Hai, and Zhang Hai, are you here to be filial?" He said, "Without mercy, you waved your hand and said:
"I believe in me again. After this time, I promise that there will be no more hustle and harassment from Suzhou Prefecture and will become a windless free port again.
What else could everyone say, so they had to respond timidly and then retreat without delaying the negotiations between the adults and the urko.
The visitor was He Xinyin. Under Sanchi's personal leadership, he went straight into the signing room and smiled at the silence waiting there.
"Go out and guard, and no one is allowed to get close to the yard." Chen Si ordered Sanchi.
When Sanchi went out, He Xinyin clapped and said, "I admire you, admire you, the number one conspirator of the Ming Dynasty. I think you must be your Lord Shen." This guy's mouth is so stinky, and it makes people uncomfortable to praise others.
Silent smiled bitterly and said, "Brother He is too proud. I feel that I am far from the top. "It's too humble." He Xinyin laughed and scolded, "There was no big fight, nor did it threaten and temptation. The Xu Hai gang, the second most important in the world, collapsed." As he said, he had to accept it, "This was something that the court had tried so hard that it could not be done for many years, but with a humble speech, he could do it with an unrelated reply. He Xinyin was so cruel....I am convinced by one or two. But now, I admire you in addition to admiring you."
"Stop praising me, I'm almost floating on the clouds." Chen Shu laughed and said, "Xu Hai is not hurt at all now, so it's a little early to praise me."
"Okay, let's talk about the serious business." He Xinyin said: "Xu Hai asked me to bring you a message. He can retreat or hand over the more than a thousand captured soldiers and civilians to you, but he wants money."
"My concubine?" asked silently.
"Five hundred thousand taels" He Xinyin said in pain for Chen Si: "He really dares to ask for it!"
"Give it." Unexpectedly, silent eyes said without blinking: "I will give him another set of pure gold armor, a jade sword, his wife, and unborn children. I will give you a generous gift."
He Xinyin was stunned. If it weren't for the difference between the upper and lower parts, he really wanted to go forward and touch his silent forehead and said, "Don't you have a fever? Xu Hai has broken up with Ye Ma and the others now, why would you give him money? Don't let others treat him as a fat sheep!"
Silently saw his thoughts and smiled faintly: "This money should be spent. First, it can remove Xu Hai's vigilance; second, it can make Ye Ma Xin resent and make the two break up completely; third, sooner or later, Xu Hai will have to pay me back the capital and interests. If you don't believe me, please go and see."
"You have such confidence?" He Xinyin said in disbelief.
"If I had put it yesterday, I wouldn't dare to say it." Silent smiled mysteriously and said, "But this morning, I got a message." He waved his hand, letting him approach, and whispered in his ear.
He Xinyin's disbelief on his face suddenly expanded ten times, and his chin almost dropped to the ground. He couldn't help but say in a lost voice: "Is it true or false?"
"I'm already here, I'll be rushing back day and night, and at most I can arrive in Suzhou today." Chen Si said softly: "Are you true or false?"
He Xinyin was completely shocked, and he finally believed that the young man opposite, who was in his early 20s, really had the energy to do something that ordinary people could not do.
He Xinyin went back in the afternoon and accompanied him with five ships of gold, silver and treasures, as well as various precious gifts.
This shocked Xu Hai's chin and said, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it! Xu Hong looked at the ship of treasures and shouted: "Brother, Lord Shen is so delicious, let's follow him!"
"Reserved" Seeing him like this, Xu Hai felt embarrassed and said, "Be careful."
As he said that, he couldn't help but say: "It seems that the government is playing with us this time. I'm wrong about Lord Shen. I'll write him a letter later and apologize."
"Then let's clean up Ye Ma!" Xu Hong didn't forget to kill Ye Ma and said, "Just treat it as a thank you to Lord Shen!"
"No," A trace of disproportionate cunning flashed across Xu Hai's face, and he said softly:
"The more this happens, the more reserved you will be. Lord Shen didn't ask for it. Why do we have to make trouble?" As he said that, he waved his hand and said, "Get out of the camp. Let's leave Suzhou Prefecture." He obviously made up his mind. Eat for nothing or not to work.
After two deaths, Xu Hai's army set out. They were preparing to cross the border to Xijiang and meet with Zhenlu who were still fighting hard in Beixinguan to see if there was any cheaper to make.
But Ye Ma from Shanghai City was panicked. He was staring at Xu Hai at all times. When he saw him pulling out the camp south, he was panicked. "If Xu Hai left and had no cushion for him, then Liu Xian, Wang Chonggu and Qi Jiguang would not have rushed up from all directions and swallowed him alive.
"No, we have to withdraw." At the urgent military meeting, Ye Ma said firmly: "Do you have any opinions?"
“No…no comment.
Ye Nan naturally only followed the leader of his elder brother.
"Lu Sang, your meaning is a spoon." Xin Wulang wanted to listen to Lu Ji's meaning.
Lu Ji shook his head and said, "Don't you find this strange?" Seeing the three of them straightened their eyes, he explained, "I'm not talking about withdrawing troops, but we and Xu Hai. No one sat down and had a serious conversation. Just relying on rumors and years of friendship, they broke up. Why do I think more and more I feel uncomfortable?"
In fact, Ye Ma has been considering this issue in the past two days. After the initial anger and fear, he vaguely felt a misunderstanding in it, but he couldn't hold his face down. Now when Lu Ji said this, he nodded and said, "Yes, I should find a way to talk."
"How to talk?" At this time, Xin Wulang interrupted stubbornly: "You dare not go to his place, he dare not come to your place, how can you talk?"
"I'll go there." Lu Ji said: "Do you believe me?"
"It's great that Mr. Lu can go there!" Everyone had no objection, and Ye Ma asked, "What should we do now?"
"I can only withdraw first." Lu Jie sighed and said, "It's a pity that such a good foundation."
