"Hongfei? Why are you here?!" Yi Dongyun was surprised at first, and then quickly understood.
The news only said that Sang Fu was killed by Hong Dong, but did not say why Hong Dong suddenly appeared. When he saw Yi Hongfei, he understood the key.
Hong Dong glanced around, and except for the Yi family members, he had seen almost none of the generals sitting there.
The Yi family has a close relationship with the Hong family. Hong Dong often played with them before, and the two families shared weal and woe. After Sang Fu came to power, he has been suppressing the Yi family. If the Yi family had not been rooted in the military for hundreds of years, It had long been uprooted by Sangfu.
"Brother Xia Feng, long time no see." Hong Dong and Yi Xiafeng exchanged greetings with each other.
Yi Xiafeng teased: "More than twenty years have passed and my hair has turned gray, but you are still very young. You'd better not call me brother, but call me uncle."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The others were not familiar with Hong Dong, so they gathered around Yihe to ask about the situation. Yihe had already thought of his words, and made some true and false assumptions, which did not arouse their suspicion.
"What?! Yi Hongfei becomes the new clan leader?! No, I don't agree!"
When asked about the follow-up plan, as soon as Yihe said this, a general objected furiously.
Putting aside everything else, he and the Yi family have never dealt with each other. If Yi Hongfei becomes the clan leader, he will not be able to reap any good fruits. We must resolutely oppose it!
Yi Dongyun and Yi Xiafeng did not expect their sister to have such an ambition. When they first heard the news about Sang Fu's death, they knew that Hong Dong would not be willing to be the clan leader, and they also thought about recommending Hongqu, the Xuan family and the Yi family They have a good relationship. Xuan Hongqu has been the county magistrate for several years, so he should be able to be the clan leader.
"Do you really want to be the clan leader?"
"Eldest brother, second brother, don't worry. I have been preparing for many years to become the clan leader."
The two brothers looked at each other and knew their sister's temper. They patted her on the shoulder and said, "We support you."
"She wants to be the clan leader? She should become a man in her next life."
Yi Hongfei sneered and looked at the man, "I can let you reincarnate now."
Seeing that the two sides were about to start a fight, Yihe intervened in the middle, with a usual smile on his face, but his words were not polite at all, "This is already the best choice. If you have time to quarrel, why not think about how to get more for yourself?" Many benefits.”
These words made everyone gradually calm down. The escape route they originally thought of was just the struggle of trapped beasts. So what if they occupied the Black Water Tribe. When Wen Yunxi gathered his forces, it would be easy to deal with them.
One wrong step, one wrong step after another. If they had rushed and killed the troops of the four northern tribes when they were intercepted, and followed the trend south to occupy Black Rock City and Pingxi Dam, they would not have been in such an embarrassing situation.
Now the soldiers on the opposite side are fed well with good food and drink. Their soldiers eat pancakes and cold water every day. They are also panicked because of Sang Fu's death. Xi Xiao, who originally besieged Pingxi Dam, also switched sides to Wen Yunxi.
"Oh... I'm so confused..." A sigh came to an end for many days of stalemate.
On the other side of the river, as soon as the dishes and chopsticks were cleaned, they received an order from the clan leader to cook half of the food.
Although they didn't know what they meant, the cooks still rolled up their sleeves and worked hard. Maybe the clan leaders wanted to give them a midnight snack.
"Have you finished yet? Didn't you just have dinner?!" The smell of stewed meat finally dissipated, and the smell of barbecue came from the other side. Are you planning to starve them to death?
Shuishu swallowed, picked up a piece of grass, threw it into his mouth and slowly chewed it, imagining that he was eating barbecue, and when he took a bite, it was soft and fragrant, and the sauce and golden oil slid down the corner of his mouth...
"Brother Shu, you're drooling." The young man's voice was loud, causing the people around him to look towards Shuishu. Although the sky was getting dark, they could still clearly see the water stains on the corners of Shuishu's mouth.
Shui Shu woke up from his fantasy and rubbed the back of his head awkwardly, "I want to eat barbecue."
Everyone didn't laugh at him. They stared at the two dry biscuits every day and smelled the aroma of the barbecue opposite. Many of them were not greedy. "Well, I don't know what the higher-ups are thinking. It's either fight or retreat. What's the point of being in such a stalemate?"
Those generals are very good at eating and drinking, but they don’t know how to sympathize with these small soldiers. Whether they go to war or surrender, can they have a full meal?
Dozens of people gathered together to complain. The more they complained, the angrier they became. Just when they could no longer bear it and rushed towards the opposite side, the general who had been invisible for many days finally appeared.
"Shout surrender to the other side."
"what?!"
"We surrender!"
The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then shouted to the opposite side at the top of their lungs: "Surrender, we surrender!"
In fact, they could withdraw their troops directly, but in response to Yi Hongfei's strong request and because this surrender was just a formality, they complied with her.
The four northern tribes were stunned when they heard this. What's going on? These people are crazy. They didn't start a war. Why should they surrender?
Was it a trap to trick them into crossing the river?
Yanshan was mixed up in the food delivery team and explained the situation to Xu Hui and others in the afternoon. At this time, when he heard the shouting, he didn't take any precautions and asked people to carry the barbecue across the river.
The Red Moon Army was a little nervous at first when they saw them crossing the river. Until they smelled the aroma of barbecue in their backpacks, they didn't even care whether it was poisonous or not, so they picked it up and stuffed it into their mouths.
"Hey, don't worry, there are more here."
Although they were enemies before, some people could not help but sympathize with them when they saw them gobbling up food. They had been hungry for so long, and those generals were so inhuman.
Xu Xiaoyu was young and thin. He stood there like a bamboo pole. He was squeezed a little and fell out. Seeing the barbecue being robbed, his eyes were red with anxiety but there was nothing he could do. In the end, he could only watch from the side. .
"Hey, Auntie, there is some dried meat here, let's take it out for a cushion first." Shu Xia held her little son with her left hand and reached to her waist with her right hand to dig out the dried meat.
Xu Xiaoyu turned around when he heard this. He first saw the baby in her arms, and then recognized it as a woman in her late forties. She was so shocked that her eyes almost fell out of the window.
what happened? ! Why is Milkman here? !
"What are you doing standing there, eat quickly." Shu Xia urged with a smile when she saw that Xu Xiaoyu was holding the dried meat without moving.
"Oh, thank you." Xu Xiaoyu came back to his senses and couldn't care less about being surprised. He grabbed the dried meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
Afraid that he would choke, Shu Xia took off the water bottle from her waist and handed it over, "There are red dates soaked in it, it's delicious."
When Shuishu went over with half a piece of barbecue, he saw this scene. The skinny boy was holding the kettle and crying, while the woman holding the child whispered comfort beside him.
"Hey, why are you crying again?" Shuishu handed the remaining half piece of barbecue to Xu Xiaoyu and smiled politely at Shu Xia, "Thank you, Auntie."
When Shu Xia saw another tall and thin young man coming, she took out a few candies and handed them over, "The dried meat is gone. You can use it to sweeten your mouth first."
"Are these candies made by my aunt?" Shuishu carefully looked at the candies wrapped in leaves and found that they were different from the New Year's gifts that Wen Yunxi had given before.
Shu Xia smiled heartily, "How can I make it? I bought it from a salesman."
"Salesman... he's not bad."
Shuishu was eating sweets while thinking about his future plans. If he didn't want to be a soldier anymore, he might want to go to Pingxiba.
