At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the competition for the deer in the world

Chapter 8 Undercurrent
"Sun Tzu said: Soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of life and death, the way of life and death, must be investigated."

Cheng De listened to Luo Gongfu's recitation, and his thoughts traveled through the millennium, as if he had returned to the scenes he had seen while listening to the lectures of hundreds of schools.

Half an hour later, he raised his head and found that it was almost dusk. Cheng De looked at Luo Gongfu, showing a satisfied smile, "The recitation is good, let's stop here today, take a good rest tonight, and start writing silently from tomorrow. For the content of "Sun Tzu's Art of War", if there is a lack of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, I will find Luo Yan or Li Sanqi to solve it."

"Yes, master, I remember it!" Luo Gongfu replied respectfully.

Cheng De glanced at Luo Gongfu and was about to leave.

It just so happened that He Sanwu just came back from buying food, Cheng De told Yang Wei and Li Sanqi again, and hurried back to the mansion arranged by Ba Nuotu with He Sanwu.

That night.

A stone in Cheng De's heart finally fell to the ground.

And He Sanwu, who was not far from Cheng De, didn't feel sleepy at the moment, he remembered something Li Sanqi told him.

"I didn't expect that my elder brother would change so much after a serious illness, and he wanted to replace it with Yuan." Thinking of this, he remembered another thing Li Sanqi secretly told him.

According to Li Sanqi, Yang Wei is a person who knows how to read faces. When he saw his elder brother's face, he immediately recognized his elder brother as the lord, and said that his elder brother's face was too precious.If it was the past, He Sanwu would not believe it.

However, all of a sudden, He Sanwu remembered the time when he accompanied his father to Dingyuan. At that time, he heard the story of Emperor Gao from a storyteller. Some people say that his face is indescribable.Now that the elder brother is equally expensive after being looked at by Yang Wei, then, will the elder brother become the second high emperor in the future?
Thinking of this, He Sanwu's breathing was a little short, his eyes became more firm, and he looked at the bed of his eldest brother Cheng De in the dark, with a sense of awe in his heart.

I, He Sanwu, must follow elder brother closely, and make a name for myself in this troubled world.

He Sanwu's heart thumped when he thought of how his elder brother Cheng De was in the past. If the elder brother really replaces him with Yuan in the future, then the elder brother will definitely not treat him badly. After all, the elder brother is a kind person!
Thinking of this, He Sanwu gradually fell asleep.

But at this time, Cheng De didn't feel sleepy anymore.

Because Cheng De had a sense of urgency in his heart.

It's over October now, and he's only just getting started.

However, when he thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was still begging somewhere, his heart calmed down a little.

Cheng De secretly encouraged himself: I will definitely find a chance to win Sizhou City!
The next day, Cheng De took all his brothers to the east gate for a change of defense.

Standing on the city wall and looking into the distance, Cheng De's thoughts were racing.

Na Lin Shan said that there are several brand leaders who are very dissatisfied with him, and it is likely that they will cause trouble for him.

It's just that I don't know how those brand leaders are thinking about making trouble for themselves.

However, if they make trouble for themselves, then they will never sit still and wait for death, but will deal with them in their own way.

An eye for an eye, blood for blood, this is the correct way to behave in this troubled world.

If you can't even handle a few clowns, how can you talk about overthrowing the Yuan Dynasty?
When thinking about this, Cheng De sneered.

Cheng De spent several days in peace.

However, Cheng De knew that under the calm, there must be an undercurrent.

Perhaps, at this moment, some people are brewing a conspiracy against him!
After walking around the city wall a few times, Cheng De felt a little restless.

At this moment, He Sanwu hurried over with an anxious look on his face.

"Brother, I just received the news that Tumen Batai has invited several brand leaders to discuss how to deal with Big Brother in Yihongzhai!"

Faced with several brand leaders who are about to make trouble for him, Cheng De will not do nothing.He arranged for He Sanwu to monitor several other brand leaders under Banotu, and at the same time, gave He Sanwu a sum of money to secretly develop a few intelligence personnel to help keep an eye on the other brand leaders. How to know who is malicious to him.

Unexpectedly, Tumen Batai also participated in it.Cheng De sneered in his heart.

After glancing at He Sanwu, Cheng De said, "Have you seen it clearly? Which brand leaders are going to deal with me?"

"Brother, you can see clearly that there are a total of six brand leaders who participated, only Lin Fei, Zhao Feng, Li Sheng, and Cao Gui did not participate."

Cheng De sentenced the six commanders to death in his heart, but what is more troublesome now is that Tumen Batai is also involved.

After all, Tumen Batai is also a hundred households, with his current strength, I am afraid that he is not enough to deal with him, and although he has led all his brothers to practice the martial arts taught to him by Yang Wei, it is only a few days.

It will take some time before he can really deal with Tumenbatai. After he really masters the martial arts, then it is time to attack Tumenbatai. However, he also needs an opportunity.

It would be great if there was a way to make those people from the Yuan Dynasty panic, so that he could fish in troubled waters.Perhaps, you can also take the opportunity to win Sizhou City.

Shaking his head, Cheng De pondered for a moment, looking at He Sanwu, "Continue to let people stare at the six commanders, trying to find out how they will deal with me. In addition, you will keep an eye on Tumenbatai yourself, I want to know Tumenbatai's daily routine, see if there is a chance to kill him. After all, I always feel uneasy if I don't kill him! Moreover, I have also learned that my father's death is also related to that Tumenbatai. Get rid of him, I can't swallow this breath!"

He Sanwu nodded with a serious expression, "Brother, I will keep an eye on Tumen Batai!"

Cheng De patted He Sanwu's shoulder lightly with his hand, "Of course, your safety is the most important thing. If there is an emergency, remember to protect yourself first and never lose your life. In the heart of the elder brother , your life is much more important than the task! Remember?"

When He Sanwu heard the words, his nose was a little sore, his heart was a little moved, and he thought: the storyteller died for his confidant, that's probably it!
"Well, big brother, I remember!"

After finishing speaking, He Sanwu left in a hurry.

Looking at He Sanwu's back, Cheng De thought in his heart how to get rid of the six commanders secretly without arousing the suspicion of others?

Poison?Unsafe, easy to leave clues.

Or assassinate?If this is the case, it seems feasible.It's just that this approach is likely to cause resistance from brothers.

Forget it, let's face it upright!
This is a troubled time, there must be a chance for me to get rid of the enemy!
Now, prepare secretly!
At the same time, Yihongzhai is extremely lively at the moment.

With his left arm, Tumen Batai is holding a girl in a green court dress with a good face and a graceful figure. With his right hand, he frequently picks up a wine glass and pours it into his mouth, his rough face is flushed.

"I'm very happy that you can come today. You used to work under me. Being able to come shows that I didn't misunderstand you. Come, let's have a drink first!"

Sitting opposite Tumenbatai were six burly men. After listening to Tumenbatai's words, they looked at each other, held up the wine glasses with both hands, and leaned forward so that the height of the wine glasses was lower than that of Tumenbatai. The position in the hand, and then said in unison: "We will do it first, Master Baihu, you can do whatever you want!"

Tumen Batai waved his hands and said, "Whatever you want! Let's drink together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tumenbatai drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.And the six burly men sitting opposite Tumen Batai didn't say anything more, and imitated Tumen Batai's appearance and drank a glass of booze.

"Master Baihu, what do you want our six brothers to do when you invite us here?" One of the big men with a Chinese character face asked.

Tumen Batai narrowed his eyes, a cold light shot out from his eyes, and said coldly: "I called you here to help me deal with a person."

The six strong men couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, and they asked together: "Which person who doesn't have eyesight offended Lord Baihu?"

Tumen Batai snorted coldly, "Of course it's Cheng De, the newly promoted brand leader under Banuotu! This kid made me lose face in front of everyone earlier, so I can't swallow it!"

"Master Baihu, in fact, we also don't like Cheng De. You don't know, that kid was promoted to be the leader of the brand, and he won the trust of Lord Baihu of Banotu, and he also gave us All the battle armor was given to Cheng De. The six of us are naturally dissatisfied, and recently we have been thinking about making that kid spit out all the battle armor!" said a red-faced strong man.

When Tumen Batai heard it, he was happy, and thought: It seems that this kid is unpopular!

"Looking at your appearance, you must have thought nothing of dealing with that kid's attention! I have an idea. I will definitely make that kid unable to eat and walk around, and let him obediently spit out all the armor you mentioned !” Tumen Batai showed a smile on his face, with a look of winning.

"Master Baihu, I wonder if you could tell me in detail what kind of idea you have?" The red-faced man quickly glanced at the other five people and asked.

"I went directly to Baroto and told him, seven days later, let our ten brand leaders each compete in a martial arts competition, and use thirty pairs of black armor as a bet, and the winning side will get these Armor, when the time comes, I will secretly distribute the armor I won to you. However, you can just pretend to lose in the big competition."

After hearing Tumen Batai's words, the six strong men seemed a little hesitant.

"Master Baihu, if Mr. Banotu Baihu knows about this, wouldn't we have offended him?" The red-faced strong man said cautiously.

"Hehe, even if Ba Nuotu knows, so what, I can't keep you guys? Let me tell you another news, the head of ten thousand households in Sizhou City is my eldest brother, so keeping you is just a matter of convenience! I forgive you! Nuotu didn't dare to say anything after knowing it!" Ba Nuotu raised his head and looked at the six strong men with a smile.

"What? My lord actually has such a backstage!!"

At this time, the six strong men couldn't help being shocked!
At the same time, they began to recall in their minds the scenes of why Tumenbatai repeatedly violated military discipline and even killed people in the street, but nothing happened in the end.

Yes!That makes sense!That is to say, Master Tumenbatai Baihu was not lucky enough to be safe and sound before, and everything was blamed on him having an elder brother who was the head of ten thousand households!

Sure enough, things are not that simple!
At this moment, after being shocked in their hearts, the six strong men made up their minds to hug Tumen Batai's thigh tightly.

"Master Baihu, the six of us must cooperate with Lord Baihu and perform this scene well!"

Tumen Batai looked a little proud, "Although it is an act, I will make the fake ones come true. When the big competition comes, I will send my best warriors to take the opportunity to take Cheng De's head. , I said it was manslaughter, forgive Ba Nuotu for not daring to let one go!"

The six strong men felt chills after hearing this, and kept nodding from the sidelines.

After finalizing the matter, Tumen Batai greeted the six strong men to continue drinking and eating meat together.

……

Cheng De, who was standing on the city wall, watched the sunset, and after handing over to the people who came to change the garrison, he took all the brothers back to the residence to rest!

And He Sanwu just happened to return to his residence, and told Cheng De about Tumen Batai's conspiracy in detail. After Cheng De heard it, he just sneered: "I'll wait!"
