Zhu Youcheng's face darkened, he pointed at the Baiyi with his finger, shouted to Chen Guoqi: "Don't talk nonsense, look at the Baiyi."

Sure enough, Bai Yi was waving his hand desperately, and he was wrong.

Wu Huping smiled and said, "Sir, Chen Guoqi is not good, let me give it a try."

He bowed his fists and said to Bai Yi politely: "Brother Bai Yi, show me the movements, I'll guess what you want to say."

Wu Huping's etiquette is very standard, but unfortunately Bai Yi does not understand the official language of the Ming Dynasty. Wu Huping's style is a glamorous look on the blind man.

Wu Huping continued, "Now you start gesturing, I'm much smarter than that guy."

Bai Yi pointed at the road ahead with his finger, and Wu Huping said, "Which road ahead?"

Bai Yi lay down, Wu Huping turned his head and said to Zhu Youcheng aggrievedly: "Mr. Zhu, this Bai Yi bullied me. When I asked him what he said, he actually pretended to be dead."

Then, Wu Huping turned his head back and said to Bai Yi viciously: "Don't pretend to be dead, I'm very fierce and will kill people."

Only then did he realize that Bai Yi didn't seem to be pretending to be dead because he was trying to make a squirming look.

Wu Huping suddenly realized and shouted: "I understand, I understand!"

Following [v, he turned around and told Zhu Youcheng: "Sir, that barbarian told us that there is a snake in front of him, and it may be a python."

After saying that, he also made a "hiss" sound from hissing.

When the Jinyiwei heard that there were snakes, they were all clever. Most of them came from the north and hated the colorful, winding and biting insects.

Zhu Youcheng pointed to the Bai Yi powerlessly.

Wu Huping turned around and saw that Bai Yi had already stood up and shook his head desperately like killing a chicken and wiping his neck.

Both of the favorites were screwed up, and Zhu Youcheng was at a loss.

Chu Liang said: "Mr. Zhu, let me give it a try."

Zhu Youcheng glanced at him and said, "You? Can you?"

"Remove the word 'a', just one word 'yes'. Don't worry, look at me."

After saying that, Chu Liang jumped off his horse, walked forward, and whispered with Bai Yi for a few words. Then he came back to report: "Sir, I asked clearly. He said that Hei Yi built a pond on the top of the mountain in front of him. If we go further, Hei Yi will open the water gate to release water. When the flood surging down, our army will all turn into fish and turtles."

Zhu Youcheng was surprised. He knew the power of the mountain torrent. Not to mention that he is in the Ming Dynasty with less developed technology, even if there are hundreds of years, facing the flood, humans are still helpless.

But when I thought about it, Zhu Youcheng was a little suspicious. Will anyone build a pond on the top of a mountain in the Ming Dynasty? This is not a later generation. It is necessary to build a reservoir and store water to make tap water. Moreover, the barbarians are still in a slave society and culture is in an ignorant stage. Do you know how to build a reservoir?

Zhu Youcheng was judging the authenticity of the words of the Yi people. Wu Huping asked a little enviously: "Chu Liang, when did you learn the local language of the Yi people? I also want to learn one or two sentences. But I can't learn it either."

Chu Liang said proudly: "You can't do anything smarter. I just learned it casually."

Zhu Youcheng said disdainfully: "What's the use of learning? I'm about to promote the Ming Dynasty among the barbarians. At that time, all the barbarians will speak the Ming Dynasty. No one will say the slang that is too rustic. Who are you going to use slang to chat with?"

Although the barbarians rebelled and tried to establish a barbarian country, everyone yearned for the Ming Dynasty. Ordinary barbarians liked to mix one or two Chinese characters when talking, while senior barbarians all used Chinese dialect when chatting, just like the so-called higher Chinese in later generations who spoke English in public. If Zhu Youcheng promoted the Ming Dynasty Mandarin education among the barbarians, no one would use those slangs at that time.

When Chu Liang heard this, he couldn't help but look a little sad.

Zhu Youcheng asked: "Chu Liang, go and ask, how did he know about this? What are the details of the matter?"

Chu Liang said a little embarrassedly: "This... this is a bit difficult. I don't learn them well... I'm afraid it's a little difficult to translate..."

"No matter what difficulties you have, you must overcome. This matter is of great importance and is related to the overall situation of our army's march route and pacifying rebellion. Chu Liang, I'll ask you all about this."

Wu Huping and Chen Guoqi also advised him together.

Chu Liang blushed and said, "Then I'll try it, but you must not laugh at me."

Wu Huping and Chen Guoqi said together: "I promise not to laugh. Besides, can you compare to us? We were just so ugly. Can you be more embarrassed than us?"

Hearing the promise, Chu Liang felt confident. But he did not go to Baiyi, but instead used his strength to shout behind him: "Come out!"

"Here, come." With a reply, a barbarian squeezed out of the crowd.

Everyone was puzzled, and Chu Liang explained: "Mr. Zhu, you teach me to use your brain in everything. Seeing that Master Chen was really unreliable to guess his words when he saw the movements, I went back to the level just now and found someone who understood the Ming Dynasty's official language and asked him to translate it for me. However, I wanted to give myself a long face, so I said that I learned the local language of the Yi people and could understand the words of the Bai Yi."

Everyone burst into laughter, and even Zhu Youcheng couldn't help laughing.

Chu Liang said in annoyance: "You don't keep your promises, you don't laugh, and now you're laughing so happily."

Zhu Youcheng smiled and said, "Who told you to brag? Go quickly."

Chu Liang brought the Yi translator to Bai Yi. After some conversation, everyone finally understood the whole story.

It turned out that the other side of the mountain was the fields of the Yi people. The Yi people were also hardworking people. They learned to plant rice from the Han people. Unfortunately, Guizhou was mountainous and there were not many plains. They reclaimed fields from low to high on the gentle slopes of the mountain, which was the so-called terraced fields. In order to irrigate the terraced fields, the Yi people built water-storing ponds on the top of the mountain for generations, and over time, they formed a lake with abundant water. After Anbangyan rebelled, in order to prevent the Ming army from besieging Anjia after the defeat, they stationed heavy troops near the lakes on the top of the mountain. Once the traces of the Ming army were found, they immediately dug up the lake and washed away the Ming army with water.

This is a vicious plan to hurt others and yourself. After the water is released, the enemy will naturally be defeated, but the terraced fields will lose the reservoir and the harvest in a year will be almost done.

Afraid of opposition from the barbarians, An Bangyan did not inform most barbarians after formulating the plan. This Bai Yi accidentally heard their plan while serving the guards at the gates.

Originally, he was afraid of causing disaster and was ready to ruin the plan. However, when the Jinyiwei came, they killed all the Heiyi, and one of the Heiyi was the evildoer who dominated his wife.

He was grateful to the Jinyiwei. Seeing that the Jinyiwei was walking towards the death penalty, he could no longer bear it, so he came over to persuade them to continue moving forward.

Zhu Youcheng was scared and sweated: Fortunately, the Jinyiwei usually did good deeds and accumulated virtues, so this time he only killed the Heiyi and let Baiyi go. Otherwise, once the rebels' plan succeeds, the Jinyiwei will probably be wiped out.

He said to Bai Yi: "In the future, all the Yi people will be changed to noble Ming names. If you have great kindness to the Jinyiwei, then now I will give you the surname "Guo". When the Yi people choose a surname, there are two surnames that cannot be chosen, one is the character "Zhu" and the other is the character "Guo". Both of these two characters are big surnames, and they will not be rewarded unless they have great contributions. If you are kind by nature, you will be called "Liang". From now on, you will be called Guoliang."

Bai Yimu looked at Zhu Youcheng woodenly, and he didn't kneel down and kowtow like pounding garlic until the translator told him the good news.

After kowtowing, he pointed to his chest and said in a strange way: "Guo...Guoliang?Guoliang!"

This Bai Yi actually learned how to pronounce his name in an instant.

He laughed wildly and shouted "Guoliang" while rushing back to the level, probably to show off his friend.

Zhu Youcheng looked at Bai Yi’s cheerful back with a smile and murmured, “There are other rewards I haven’t given you, so I’m so anxious to leave? Forget it, I’ll destroy the An family anyway, and I’ll have to come back. If I meet you, I’ll give it to you together.”

After pressing Bai Yi's affairs, Zhu Youcheng is now in a dilemma and is in a dilemma.

If we advance, the rebels will inevitably dig up the lake and flood the Jinyiwei. If we take a detour, how can we know if there are any other lakes on the hill? If we retreat, we will not even think about it. First, we may be laughed at by those conservative soldiers. Second, we should see that victory is in sight, how can we retreat and retreat?
