The city where Zuo Zuofu is located is Xinyang City. Before Hu You withdraws from the central area, Xinyang is just a small city. After Zuo Zuofu occupied Xinyang City, he vigorously built Xinyang City, spent a lot of financial and material resources, and forced Xinyang City to build Xinyang City from a small city into a military fortress. Zuo Zuofu himself also led a large army to garrison here.

Hu You disagrees with Zuo Zuofu's approach. Although Xinyang City has been vigorously built by Zuozuofu, its basic skills are too poor. Even if it wants to develop, it will not be able to be forced to do it in a short time. Without three to five years, it is impossible for Zuozuofu to have the same influence as Huadu. Zuozuofu doesn't leave Hua, but set up Xinyang City as the headquarters. I really don't know what he wants to do. Anyway, if it were Hu You, he would never do this.

However, if Zuo Zuofu wants to do this, Hu You can't control him. Everyone belongs to two different factions, and they are all big-name figures, and no one can control whoever. Not to mention Zuo Zuofu uses Xinyang City as the headquarters, even if he builds a cave as the headquarters, Hu You can't control him. Of course, Hu You doesn't plan to care about him.

It takes twenty days to walk from Tongcheng to Xinyang City. It is such an inconvenience to retreat in civilization. You should know that in the past spacecraft era, this road was completed in one day. However, it is not a bad thing to retreat in civilization. At least the process of the war has become much slower due to the problem of dealings. Unlike before, the spacecraft can attack in a full range with just one move. If you can't beat it, you can run very quickly.

During Hu You's trip, Hongye was headquartered, and Huang Jinfeng was by Hu You's side. Huang Jinfeng is now Hu You's chief financial officer. From the allocation of military supplies to the soldiers' uniforms and shoes, all of them are under the supervision of Huang Jinfeng. Huang Jinfeng also used her strength to prove her ability in this area. Although she has not been here for a long time, there are few people in the army who are dissatisfied with her.

The reason why Huang Jinfeng came this time was because Hu You couldn't figure out what Zuo Zuofu was thinking. To put it bluntly, he didn't know what exchange conditions Zuo Zuofu had to pay to agree to send heavy troops to guard the Nanlin Passage. If Zuo Zuofu wanted money, then Hu You, who was not good at this aspect, would be unable to film the version. If Huang Jinfeng was there, there would be no problem.

Speaking of the current situation in the martial arts world, Hu You is also very troubled. Although there are only three forces left in the martial arts world, since the Dark Empire and Linhe Empire may interfere in the martial arts world at any time, the overall situation in the martial arts world is much more complicated and dangerous than before. Although Hu You's Immortal Legion is already the most powerful force in the martial arts world, this is not safe. If Zuo Zuofu's German and Feifei army join forces with Xikeli's Dongyang City, or any of them join forces with the Dark Empire or Linhe Empire, Hu You will be very uncomfortable. If you don't do it well, the Immortal Legion will be removed from the civil and military world. This is not an exaggeration. Whether such a thing will happen is just a difference of thought. As long as Zuozuofu or Xikeli has such an idea, it will become a fact.

************************************************************

After twenty days of trekking, Hu You came to Xinyang City. When he saw the three words "Xinyang City", Hu You suddenly thought of Dongyang City in Xikeli. If you don't do it, Zuo Zuofu took Xinyang City as the headquarters to go to Dongyang City. As the saying goes, the old ones don't go to the new ones, but after Dongyang City is finished, isn't it Xinyang City's turn to unify the world?

Hu You came to Xinyang City this time without a secret. Before he set out, he had already ordered someone to call Zuo Zuofu. When he was about to arrive in Xinyang City, he would send troops out of the city to protect Hu You for a hundred miles, so Hu You knew clearly when Zuo Zuofu in Xinyang City.

"Do you think Zuo Zuofu will come to welcome you?" Huang Jinfeng asked Hu You. She is not good at military affairs, but she is a genius in business. Looking at this meeting from her business perspective, you can also see a lot of them. She knows whether Zuozuofu came to welcome you personally is related to Zuozuofu's attitude towards Hu You. If Zuozuofu came to welcome you personally, it means that he still values ​​Hu You, and the possibility of this matter being completed will be relatively high. If Zuozuofu doesn't come, it's hard to say.

"Don't guess, that's not?" Hu You signaled Huang Jinfeng with his eyes.

While talking, a team of people were coming from the city to the city gate. The one who was riding the horse was Zuo Zuofu. This is interesting. Although the civil and military circles have experienced two civil and military regressions, cars and tanks are still there. Zuo Zuofu actually rode a horse to meet Hu You. Although it is not unique to you, it is also very creative.

"What does he mean?" Huang Jinfeng didn't expect Zuo Zuofu to do this. Is it a popular retro?

"Who knows." No matter how smart Hu You was, he would not be able to explain what Zuo Zuofu's behavior meant for a while. However, the people had arrived, so Hu You couldn't continue to stay in the car. He pulled out of the car door and stopped in place and waited for Zuo Zuofu to ride over.

"Young Marshal, I haven't seen you for many days, so don't be fine." Zuo Zuofu came to Hu You's face and turned over and dismounted. He was a little stupid, and he was quite imposing.

"The General Zuo Zuofu is so elegant." Hu You smiled and said, "This horse is also a good horse, it's sweat and blood."

"It turns out that the young marshal also has research on horses. It seems that I am showing off my skills." Zuo Zuofu laughed.

"I just look at it in the book, I can't say whether I understand it or not."

"Young Marshal is so polite. If you can tell you that this is a horse breed, it proves that you are an expert. It just so happens that I have a good horse. You can help me see it. Come on, bring the horse over."

Without saying anything, a shiny horse all over the body came to Hu You. The horse was not sweat and blood, but black cone. This horse was no worse than sweat and blood, and I don’t know where Zuo Zuofu got it. I remember that the first time Hu You saw the black cone horse was in the golden phoenix. When Hu You saw the golden phoenix for the first time, the golden phoenix rode the black cone horse.

"What a beautiful horse." Huang Jinfeng was right beside Hu You, couldn't help but touch the horse's head, and praised sincerely.

"It turns out that the lady is also a person who knows horses. Since that's the case, I'll give this horse to my wife." Zuo Zuofu was generous and gave it to her as soon as she said she could, without any ambiguity.

"How did this happen? It's your favorite."

"Young Marshal, you're just a horse. With your friendship, what's that?"

***************************************************************

The construction of Xinyang City is better than Hu You expected, but it is also very good. After all, it is rooted in it. From all aspects of popularity, Xinyang City does not have the potential to become a big city in a short period of time.

Zuo Zuofu was quite enthusiastic about Hu You's arrival. Not only did he send horses, but he also personally sent someone to arrange his residence. I don't know whether it was for showing off or why, he directly vacated a hotel to receive Hu You and his group. You should know that Hu You had only about 500 people coming from the public, and there were two or three floors enough to live in. It was really unnecessary to vacate an 18-storey hotel.

"Zuo Zuofu is quite interesting. How likely do you think he is to cooperate with us?" Huang Jinfeng has a good impression of Zuozuofu, at least not annoying.

Hu You shook his head and said, "Zuo Zuofu is not as simple as it seems. At most, we are a combination of interests. We cannot have sincere cooperation. At night banquets, don't talk nonsense, I will deal with everything."

Huang Jinfeng said dissatisfiedly: "When did I say anything, you, you are really getting older and older now."

Hu You laughed. He liked Huang Jinfeng to look like this little woman the most. Every time Huang Jinfeng did this, he felt very cute.

After washing up, it became dark after a short rest. Hu You and Huang Jinfeng changed their clothes and left the hotel under the protection of eight guards. They got into the car sent by Zuo Zuofu.

"I thought he was going to get a horse again." Huang Jinfeng said with a little disappointed. Compared to cars, she prefers the nature of horses.

The hotel is in the center of the city, not far from Zuo Zuofu's banquet site, only a ten-minute drive away. The banquet site is just arriving. When Hu You arrived here, he realized that Zuo Zuofu was not the only one who invited him, but also many people.

Although he was in Zuo Zuofu's territory, Hu You was still an absolute star. As soon as he got off the car, many people surrounded him, including those in Zuo Zuofu's camp, and some were not in Zuo Zuofu's camp.

"Lin Zhan?" A familiar figure pulled Hu You's spirit. He didn't expect to see Lin Zhan from the Linhe Empire here, and he came to attend the banquet as Lin Zhan looked like.

Lin Zhan obviously saw Hu You, but he did not avoid it, but instead strode forward. He looked quite handsome when he changed his military uniform to a dress.

"It's really where we meet in life, Young Marshal, we're meeting again." Lin Zhan looked friendly and could not tell that he had a deep hatred with Hu You. But strictly speaking, he and Hu You really had no deep hatred. If there was a collision between the two major forces.

"General Lin, you haven't seen each other for many days, are you okay?" Hu You also smiled. As the saying goes, don't hit people with smiles. Lin Zhan is smiling all over his face. Hu You can't use a dead face to face others.

"Not very good, young marshal, you know." Lin Zhan shook his head and said. Lin Zhan suffered a few losses in Hu You's hands, and there was not much of the name of the genius commander. If it weren't for the Linhe Empire's change of masters and blood, it would be hard to say whether he still has his current status.

"I really don't know much about this. You are here to attend the banquet, how about we go in together?" Hu You didn't plan to settle the past grudges with Lin Zhan here. Let's leave the matter on the battlefield to the battlefield before we can talk about it.

************************************************************

The banquet hall is very beautiful. I don’t know whether it is intentional or unintentional. Hu You’s seat and Lin Zhan’s seat are two opposite each other. Everyone sat on a large round table, next to it was Zuo Zuofu’s accompanying guests, and Zuo Zuofu’s seat is also at this table, but it’s still empty. It seems that the master is going to show off, and he will not come out until the last moment.

Hu You and Lin Zhan sat down together, but they stopped talking after sitting down. Compared to the lively atmosphere of other tables, the place seemed a bit deserted, but they did not break the meaning of desertedness.

Zuo Zuofu must have about twenty tables for guests this time. Since the venue is not small, the tables are quite apart, so it is relatively comfortable to sit up. If Lin Zhan is not sitting opposite, Hu You should feel more comfortable. Now, it’s hard to say that he is happy or unhappy. The host has already arranged this way, so let’s see what programs will be next.

The people at each table were already full. The whole banquet hall was just outside the seat of Zuo Zuofu, and a burst of music started. Then someone sang the lyrics that Zuo Zuofu arrived. The side door opened, and the left husband walked out of the side door with a swaying three times.

"It's like the emperor's trip." Huang Jinfeng whispered. Before this, she had a good impression of Zuo Zuofu, but now, she doesn't like Zuofu very much, and she feels that this is too artificial.

"I think it's quite interesting." Hu You laughed. He was afraid that Zuo Zuofu would not have the heart to be an emperor, so he would have it. That would be easy. Those who are the hearts of an emperor would not bow to any force easily. Zuo Zuofu and Xikeli were not dealt with at first, and the Dark Empire and Linhe Empire both had emperors. Zuozuofu would never stand up and not sit down if he wanted to cooperate with them. The final result would definitely be the failure of cooperation.

Lin Zhan obviously thought of going with Hu You, and Zuo Zuofu's appearance also made him frown. However, he covered up very well and did not make any dissatisfaction on the surface.

Zuo Zuofu came to the main table with three steps and out of politeness. Hu You stood up to greet him. Lin Zhan was reluctant, but he still stood up. It was obvious that Zuo Zuofu was very satisfied with this, and his face was almost smiling like a bun.

Before sitting down, Zuo Zuofu introduced Hu You personally, and then went to Lin Zhan. When introducing Hu You, Zuo Zuofu introduced Hu You's identity. When he arrived at Lin Zhan, he only said a name, and did not point out that Lin Zhan was from the Linhe Empire.

There were merchants attending the meeting, but more were important officials under Zuo Zuofu. Hu You were familiar with them, and they must have heard of Lin Zhan's name. Although people have the same name, there is only one Lin Zhan who is qualified to sit opposite Hu You. They must know that Lin Zhan is Lin Zhan of the Linhe Empire. Hu You intentionally observed Zuo Zuofu's subordinates. Some of them were expressionless, while others showed disgust for Lin Zhan's attendance. This was another good news for Hu You.

It goes without saying that the whole banquet is good for wine and food. The performances of the beauties on stage are also very good, but such a banquet is just polite to Hu You, which does not explain any problem, and can even be said to be a waste of time.

************************************************************

"What do you say Lin Zhan is here for?" After the banquet, when Huang Jinfeng returned to the hotel, she couldn't help it. Although it was her first time meeting Lin Zhan, she knew who Lin Zhan was. Throughout the night, she was considering the impact of Lin Zhan's appearance on their plan, and the answer she came up with was not optimistic.

"If I guess correctly, it should be related to the Nanlin Passage." Hu You said in a deep voice: "If this is the case, it will not be good news for us."

"That means that Linhe Empire and the Dark Empire may have reached a cooperation, right?" Huang Jinfeng didn't need to look at the problem from a war perspective. She just needed to bring in commercial competitive relationships to know what Lin Zhan might represent.

"That's right. Strictly speaking, the two current power-in-powered people are in-laws and have just taken office. Their status is not very stable. It is entirely possible to cooperate temporarily for their own interests." Hu You had a good understanding of the relationship between the royal family, knowing that they could completely ignore any affection for the sake of power, but at the same time, for their own status, they can often form interest alliances more decisively than ordinary people, which is related to the education they received since childhood. To put it bluntly, everything is for status.

"If this is true, what are you going to do?" The smile on Huang Jinfeng's face disappeared. She knew that Lin Zhan's appearance would cause Hu You a lot of trouble. The possibility of cooperating with Zuo Zuofu was only 50%, but now I am afraid that it is less than 30%.

"Look at it for now. I just observed Zuo Zuofu's subordinates. Not everyone has a good impression of Lin Zhan. The appearance of Lin Zhan may not be a bad thing for us. The key is to depend on the development of the situation."

"Well." Huang Jinfeng also knew that before the situation was unclear, anything she said was useless. But she didn't know that Hu You was already imagining that if Zuo Zuofu intended to cooperate with the forces behind Lin Zhan, then how many opportunities would he have to contact directly with Zuo Zuofu's men to achieve the goal of undermining Zuozuofu. You should know that there are too many irreconcilable factors between the martial arts and the literary world. The generals under Zuozuofu could not say that there would be relatives who died at the hands of the literary world. If Zuozuofu really wanted to act alone, there would definitely be no fewer people who opposed him. If Hu You secretly supported them, then there would be no chance to defeat Zuozuofu.

Of course, Hu You didn't want to do this unless it was absolutely possible. This is not that Hu You had righteousness to Zuo Zuo, but that Zuo Zuo's control over the German and French military is still very strong. Once he wants to be a subverted Zuo Zuo, then the German and French military will probably be destroyed.

The Nanlin Passage is now in the hands of the German and African military. Once there is a problem within the German and African military, the army of the Dark Empire will definitely break into the martial arts world. This is the situation that Hu You most unwilling to see, but on the contrary, Lin Zhan is willing to see. If you really get to this point, Hu You's purpose of coming to see Zuo Zuofu this time will be completely defeated and Lin Zhan will succeed.

************************************************************

The day after the banquet, Zuo Zuofu did not meet Hu You again. According to the news that Hu You received, Zuo Zuofu did not see Lin Zhan again. What Zuo Zuofu was thinking in his heart, Hu You really couldn't guess clearly for a while.

It was not until the third day that Zuo Zuofu sent someone to invite Hu You. The meeting this time was Zuo Zuofu's home rather than Zuozuofu's command center. Speaking of which, this meeting can be considered a official business or a private meeting. The nature is not important. Hu You cares more about Zuozuofu's attitude.

"Young Marshal, please use tea." After retreating, only Hu You and Zuo Zuofu were left in the whole house. Zuo Zuofu personally poured Hu You a cup of kung fu tea, which was pretty good in terms of the atmosphere.

"The general should be able to guess the purpose of my visit this time, right?" Hu You was not here to have a tea. He didn't plan to say that Zuo Zuofu would continue to waste his time. He would start by listening to Zuo Zuofu's meaning first.

"The Young Marshal is forcing me." Zuo Zuofu sighed and said, "I know the Young Marshal is here for Nanlin City. The Nanlin Passage of Nanlin City directly transports the Dark Empire, and is regarded as a thorn in his eyes by the Dark Empire. There are signs that the Dark Empire has ideas about the Nanlin Passage and may take action in the near future, and the Young Marshal also came because of this."

Hu You thought Zuo Zuofu would talk about it, but he didn't expect Zuozuofu to say everything in his heart. This made Hu You feel that he underestimated Zuozuofu, but Zuofu used the word "pse", which made Hu You realize that this matter would not be so smooth.

"Since the general knows everything, I really want to hear what the general thinks." Hu You took a sip of the tea ceremony.

Zuo Zuofu shook his head and said, "I don't have any ideas. I know the importance of the Nanlin Passage, but the young marshal should also know my difficulties. I can't defend the Nanlin Passage."

"Why did the general say this?"

"Since the young marshal asks, I'll just say it. For two years, I have been fighting against Xikeli. The young marshal knows that Xikeli and I have a win or defeat, and at most a draw. Of course, this is achieved only when the entire army is gathered. If I divide the troops into the Nanlin Channel and fight directly with the Dark Empire, then my back will inevitably be empty. With my understanding of Xikeli, he will definitely take the opportunity to put a knife behind me. In that case, my situation needs to be said to be the young marshal knows. How do you think I will fight this battle?"

Hu You frowned and said, "Is the general who means letting Nanlin Channel ignore it? You should know what the consequences will be if the Dark Empire army enters the martial arts world, it will be a disaster for the creatures!"

"I know this, but I can't do anything about it. I have to give me some advice. I have always admired your wisdom. I can do whatever you want me to do."

Hu You really wanted to give Zuo Zuofu a big mouth. This guy is so shameless. He just threw the problem to Hu You. It is obvious that you, Hu You, don’t help me, and I’m just caught it. Hu You knows Zuofu’s intention, but Hu You can’t ignore this matter and can only suppress the fire.
Chapter completed!
