Traitor Summoning System [Infrastructure]

Leonard spent a day inspecting the inn under construction, returned to Little Thorn Castle in a carriage, and drove overnight.

He looked out of the window of the carriage, and the great darkness divided the city from the wilderness.

"All this peace is about to disappear, Feng Xian." Leonard said with emotion.

"It's going to rain, my lord," Lu Bu said.

Wei Zhongxian said: "Sure enough, the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of the building."

Leonard smiled: "You're quite romantic, Fengxian."

Lu Bu: "Eh... I don't mean that the situation is like a storm or something. It's really going to rain. Look at the sky."

Leonard and Wei Zhongxian were awkward at the same time, Leonard said: "Oh, cough, tell your subordinates to pitch a tent to avoid the rain."

"Yes." Lu Bu said.

The soldiers quickly set up tents one by one.

Just as Leonard entered the tent, it really started to rain outside.

The rain fell densely from the sky like gray silver needles. Because there was no wind, the rain fell straight down, causing a series of ripples on the ground.These ripples are very regular, from small to large, spreading into a perfect circle, as if carefully calculated, without a trace of error.

This kind of scenery makes people feel very magical and dreamlike after seeing it.

Leonard sat in front of the tent, Lu Bu went to inspect the other tents, and Wei Zhongxian stood behind Leonard.

It's time to chat. It's a waste of not chatting in this atmosphere.

"The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies." Leonard said, "This is used to describe Daming."

Wei Zhongxian nodded, "Well, although my Ming Dynasty is not as powerful as Datang, I still have the same backbone."

Leonard really likes Daming, it really was an era with a lot of backbone.

There were many threats to the north of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, Shanhaiguan was regarded as a barbaric place by the people of the Central Plains. To solve this problem, Emperor Yongle moved his capital to Beiping and guarded the country's gates to keep the enemies out.

After that, Emperor Shaowu committed suicide on hunger strike after being captured, Emperor Longwu died in battle, and finally Emperor Chongzhen did not flee even though he was approached by soldiers, and ended himself in Meishan.

It is true that the emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country.

Although the Ming Dynasty produced many strange emperors, it never signed any unequal treaties, cut land, and never married.This is the only dynasty in the past dynasties except for the relatively short Qin Dynasty.Therefore, many people in later generations regarded Daming as the most backbone dynasty.

Then Wei Zhongxian told Leonard a lot of things about the Ming Dynasty. Leonard was excited at first, but as the night progressed, he began to feel sleepy.

Wei Zhongxian helped Leonard to sleep.

When Lu Bu returned from his inspection, Wei Zhongxian, who was guarding the door, hurriedly motioned him to keep his voice down.

Lu Bu couldn't help but poked his head and saw that Leonard had fallen asleep.

Lu Bu felt relieved, "Wan Wu, come to my tent to discuss matters."

Now Lu Bu has more than 2000 soldiers under his command, plus some young and strong soldiers, the number is already quite impressive, and some large-scale tactics can be used.

He knew that Wei Zhongxian would train soldiers, so he asked him to come with him.

Wei Zhongxian's heart skipped a beat when he heard Lu Bu's greeting.

Here, the people under his command call him a bachelor, his colleagues generally call him his name affectionately, and the lord also calls him his name.This is a real respect, and he didn't see any contempt from those people's eyes.

His name has not been called for many years.

In the past, even when those civil servants and military generals knelt at his feet and raised their heads, they still couldn't hide the contempt for him as an eunuch in their eyes.

So he has rage and anger in his heart, and he wants to make those people's eyes full of fear, and let fear crowd out all emotions.

And now it's different.

Wei Zhongxian nodded: "Okay, I just want to discuss the matter of guarding the station."

……

Earl Lucas of Sunlun City sent an envoy to invite Leonard to a banquet in Sunlun City.

The banquet didn't look friendly, so Leonard didn't agree immediately, but called his men and told them about it.

"What do you think?" Leonard asked.

In fact, at this time, it is more appropriate to say, "What do you think, dear dears?"

Both He Shen and Lu Bu thought there was no need to go, but Lu Bu didn't think it was necessary. He liked to come and go directly, simple and rude.He Shen is for Leonard's safety.

Gongsun Sheng was still making glass and didn't come to participate in the discussion, but he never expressed any opinions.

Maester Rutherford said frankly, "Of course."

Wei Zhongxian originally thought that he was the only one who thought he could go, but after hearing the words of Bachelor Rutherford, he felt that he was no longer alone. He said, "Scholar Rutherford, you think you should go too."

"Yeah, why don't you go?" Maester Rutherford asked, "He ate so much of us, why don't we go eat theirs too."

"Yeah." Wei Zhongxian was thinking about what Maester Rutherford's words implied, and then he said, "Earl Lucas of Sunlun City is afraid of the lord, but according to the customs here, he will not take such insidious actions." Of course, it’s good to be careful.”

Maester Rutherford froze for a moment: "Ah? My lord fear?"

Wei Zhongxian was also taken aback: "Ah? Don't you know?"

Maester Rutherford was stunned again: "Ah? Why are you afraid?"

Wei Zhongxian was also stunned for a while, and said dumbly: "...Because the lord has incorporated the surrounding villages, sooner or later the Sunlun City will be incorporated."

Bachelor Rutherford: "Huh?? Are we going to incorporate Sunlun City?"

Wei Zhongxian: "..."

He paid wrong after all.

Wei Zhongxian immediately felt that he was not only a lone tree that was hard to support, but also a teammate who was holding back and was shaking this lone tree...

He had been building an inn outside before, so he didn't know much about Bachelor Rutherford. He just thought that these and Heshen and the others were listed as bachelors, so they were also talented people. Now after this convulsion, he finally understood.

Leonard next to him was thinking and analyzing with his heart. After listening to their conversation, he was overjoyed and made a decision:

"Go, take the soldiers and horses with you." Leonard said, "I want to see what Earl Lucas wants to tell me."

As soon as he heard that he was taking him, Lu Bu immediately turned against him: "Okay, my lord! Then let's go together!"

This time it was replaced by He Shen, who was helpless: "My lord..."

"I know you're worried about my safety, but with Feng here first, I'll be more careful, no problem," Leonard said.

"Okay." He Shen said, "Then stay outside and don't enter the opponent's castle."

"Yes." Leonard said, taking He Shen's proposal.

He replied to the envoy of Sunlun City, saying that he could go to the banquet, but not inside Sunlun Castle, but outside Sunlun Castle.

The envoy got a response, so he hurriedly left Little Thorn Castle and headed for Sunlun City.

Leonard watched the envoy's disappearing figure from the tower of Little Thorn Castle, and said:

"Let me see if I can defeat others without fighting."

After Lu Bu heard this, his face turned red immediately, and he almost wanted to jump back.

Leonard couldn't help laughing at Lu Bu's eagerness for war.

He Shen and Wei Zhongxian also laughed.

For a time, the atmosphere inside and outside the house was full of joy, very relaxed.

It feels really good to be with a group of powerful guys doing great things together and get along with each other easily.

……

Earl Lucas of Sunlun Castle agreed to Leonard's request. He set up a venue outside Sunlun City and held a banquet to entertain Leonard.

The long wooden table is placed in a tent covered with flowers, and everything around it can't be seen as a temporary arrangement, and it is very gorgeous.

The juggler was performing a show, and he twirled three swords at the same time. Lu Bu kept staring at the entertainer, for fear that the other sword would drop his hand and shoot at Leonard.But Lu Bu was too worried, the juggler obediently performed the show from beginning to end.

The long table is full of all kinds of food.There are ripe fruits soaked in cream, large birds stuffed with various pulps, beef patties soaked in milk, and some very strange meats, such as crocodiles, camels, and a Jean Renner De terrified honey locust.

The final dish is a black swan with only feathers.

Leonard picked and ate some. He ate very little, and many dishes seemed to make him lose his appetite.

Earl Lucas had a good appetite, he ate big mouthfuls, and talked to Leonard about all kinds of interesting things that happened in Sunlun City recently.

Earl Lucas was obsessed with alchemy, but Leonard didn't take alchemy seriously: "I don't believe in this."

Earl Lucas said: "Gold is the most perfect existence of all metals!"

"Why?" Leonard asked with interest.

"It can't be melted, it can't rust, it's eternal, it's perfect," Earl Lucas said.

oh.Leonard understood, this is because gold is an inactive metal, it can also be melted, but the melting point is very high, and the technology in this period cannot reach it, so he thinks it is a perfect metal.

Then Earl Lucas said: "And everything in the world must develop into perfect affairs, so all metals will develop into gold, so alchemy is not magic, it is in accordance with the weather."

It was only then that Leonard understood the thinking of the medieval alchemists. It turned out that they were based on this theory.

Leonard asked some interesting questions, and the two of them chatted like this, without any sense of gunpowder for the time being.

According to the title, Leonard should serve him by the side, but almost everyone present knew that this was impossible.

Earl Lucas was still eating, but Leonard didn't have much thought to continue maintaining this hypocritical peace, mainly because the food here was really unpalatable.

"The point of alchemy is to change the appearance of an object rather than the essence..." Earl Lucas was still talking about his alchemy.

Leonard interrupted him: "Count Lucas, have you considered my proposal?"

"Proposal?" Earl Lucas swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth, just as there was a piercing sound of musical instruments from the bard, so Earl Lucas didn't know whether it was because of that frown or because of what Leonard said. What he said: "You haven't said anything yet, my respected Viscount Green."

"Proposals don't need to be said sometimes," Leonard said.

Outside is sunshine, outside is beautiful music, and the golden harp of the bard smudges the sun.

But the atmosphere in the tent changed completely.

"Then what are we doing with our mouths open? Hahaha." Earl Lucas said with a smile: "Master Viscount Green, sometimes you have to talk."

"Maybe you can keep devouring this rotten food with your mouth open, just like you did." Leonard said lightly.

"Ah, it sounds like Viscount Green is very dissatisfied with me?" Earl Lucas asked.

Leonard stared at him without speaking.

Earl Lucas laughed out loud again, this time his laughter was cold, which frightened everyone around him.

The bards and jugglers over there also stopped their movements and looked here blankly.

"Because I don't know the fun? Because everyone else has defected to you, but I haven't? How dare I disobey the will of the majestic Viscount Green?" Earl Lucas laughed and said: "Viscount Green, you are too arrogant, you Think I can't see through your tricks? Are you feeling angry now?"

"There is no anger, I only want to leave anger and hatred to the real villains." Leonard said lightly.

Many people around quietly stayed away from here, for fear of being implicated.

Earl Lucas: "The real villain, huh..."

"Also, when I say something to you, it's not a proposal, and I won't propose it." Leonard continued.

"What's that?" Count Lucas asked.

Leonard stood up, the obscurity in his eyes burning with fiery sparks: "It's not a proposal, but a trial." After Leonard finished speaking, he turned around, "Feng Xian, I'm going back."

Earl Lucas gritted his teeth and looked at Leonard: "You...you!"

Leonard opened his arms, and Lu Bu tied the cape on for Leonard.

Leonard turned his back to Earl Lucas and said, "You're ruthless, whether you're acting on purpose or you're really doing it, it's useless against me. Prepare well, and don't let my Fengxian be too disappointed."

Lu Bu turned his head and showed a cruel and ferocious smile at Earl Lucas.

Then he left with Leonard.

The expression on Earl Lucas's face gradually disappeared, and finally turned into coldness and silence.

He was indeed acting, hoping that he could paralyze the scarlet lord, make him underestimate him, and then defeat him on the frontal battlefield.

Now it seems to have failed, the opponent is more powerful than he imagined.

Then, let's look at the frontal battlefield.

He is the earl, and he doesn't think he will lose.
