Chapter 1274 Liu Yuchi, I have exhausted all my abilities!

After hearing what Earl Yongning said, Liu Yuchi was slightly stunned...

But he was a man of clever and flexible mind, how could he not understand the intention of Earl Yongning, he immediately clasped his fists and bowed, saying: "Yu Chi was not a scholar, he was originally a country bumpkin, and he also had the bad record of following thieves.

Fortunately, Earl Yongning did not abandon me and recruited me before. Now he has kept Yu Chi by his side to redeem his crime of being a bandit and causing trouble for the people. Yu Chi is already very grateful, how dare I ask for more rewards from Earl Yongning. "

Yongning Earl Zhang Cheng showed displeasure on his face, and asked in a slightly cold tone: "Mr. Liu, do you dislike the girl that this earl gave you as a gift because she is not presentable or pretty enough? ... Or do you dislike the girl that this earl gave you as a gift?"

Liu Yuchi was startled and trembled all over. He kowtowed repeatedly and tried to explain himself: "Yuchi didn't mean that... My Lord, please don't misunderstand me!"

Yongning Earl Zhang Cheng looked at Liu Yuchi, who was kneeling on the ground, with cold eyes. The corners of his mouth raised, and although he made no sound, his face was full of ridicule.

"All right. Get up quickly. Uncle Ben was just joking with you, why did you get so scared!"

After hearing these words, Liu Yuchi seemed to calm down. He stood up tremblingly and did not dare to return to his seat or look up at Earl Yongning again.

Although Earl Yongning's words were very gentle, there was a strong sense of oppression in them, which made him dare not even breathe, or even raise his head.

"It's really like 'a lazy ox plowing the field, it won't plough unless it is beaten'!" However, Earl Yongning would naturally not say these words out loud.

Zhang Cheng was not very satisfied with Liu Yuchi's performance after staying in the Central Army Headquarters, and even had some opinions about him. However, Liu Yuchi was staying in the Central Army Headquarters on behalf of Yuan Shizhong and Xiao Yuanying after all, so Zhang Cheng was not sure how to deal with him.

Therefore, I am taking this opportunity to give him a warning today. My purpose is just to make him face the reality, adjust his attitude, and serve me like he served Yuan Shizhong in the past.

Seeing him like this, Earl Yongning said gently, "Okay. Yu Chi, sit down and talk."

Liu Yuchi could naturally hear the change in Earl Yongning's tone, but he was even more shocked when Earl Yongning called him by his first name "Yuchi".

…………

Because before this, Earl Yongning had always called him Mr. Liu!
Originally Liu Yuchi thought it was a respectful title, but after staying in the headquarters for a long time he realized that this place was very different from other places. Earl Yongning treated his close associates in a very easy-going and friendly manner, and he called him "Mr. Liu" only because he did not consider him one of his own.

It is precisely because of this reason that Liu Yuchi has been silent during this period. In fact, he has been weighing in his mind whether it is right or wrong to persuade Yuan Shizhong to surrender to the Earl of Yongning!

However, everything that happened today brought him back to reality!
At this moment, neither Yuan Shizhong nor Xiao Yuanying could be relied upon by him anymore. Not to mention Liu Yuchi, even if it was Yuan Shizhong himself, if he violated the military law, I believed that Lord Yongning would arrest and punish him without hesitation.

After all, the Yongyi Army is not as good as the rebels, and Yongning Earl Zhang Cheng is not Li Zicheng, the King of Rebellion!
The reason why Li Zicheng recruited Yuan Shizhong and Xiao Yuanying was, on the one hand, to publicize his tolerance, and on the other hand, to expand his own strength in preparation for the unified leadership of all the bandits in the world in the future.

It was because Li Zicheng's main goal was to expand his power and remove obstacles for his future domination of the world that he wanted to annex Xiao Yuanying. It was also because he was afraid of being murdered by Li Zicheng that he tried his best to persuade Yuan Shizhong to leave Chuangying.

However, the situation on the side of Yongning Earl was completely different from that of the Chuang Army. In advance, Yongning Earl had already stated that "Xiaoyuan Camp was still under the command of Yuan Shizhong", but "everything had to be done according to Yongning Earl's military orders", and the treatment was naturally "consistent with other camps of Yongyi Army". After all, it was the regular army of the court, unlike the bandit group like the Chuang Army. There was a clear relationship between superiors and subordinates and strict military rules and laws, so Yuan Shizhong and Liu Yuchi were very happy to accept these conditions.

I originally thought that with the two or three thousand troops in my hands, although they were no longer an independent armed force, they would definitely be a powerful existence under the command of Earl Yongning, and would be pampered by Earl Yongning in the future!

However, through observations after being surrendered, especially during the time at the Yongning Earl's Central Army Headquarters, and through the military reports that were constantly collected, Liu Yuchi finally saw the gap between Xiao Yuanying and the Yongyi Army.

A battalion of the Yongyi Army, with more than 6,000 soldiers, was able to withstand the repeated attacks of tens of thousands of troops of the Chuang Army, and was also able to launch a brilliant counterattack at the right time, killing and wounding a large number of Chuang Army soldiers.

This was something Liu Yuchi and Yuan Shizhong could not even imagine!
You know, when they chose to leave King Chuang, Li Guo only led a few thousand elite cavalry of the Chuang army and chased them all the way, leaving them with almost no ability to fight back.

If Earl Yongning had not sent Li Jiyu to lead the army to support them, they would probably have become the dead souls at the sword of King Chuang by now. How could they have the luxurious clothes and delicious food they have today? How could they dare to imagine the fame, wealth and honor in the future?

Liu Yuchi, who has seen the reality clearly, no longer has his original arrogance. However, he could not figure out what Earl Yongning was thinking for a while, so he was as silent as before and did not dare to reveal his feelings easily.

…………

At this moment, Liu Yuchi bowed again and said, "Liu Yuchi is grateful for your kindness, sir, and has long remembered it in my heart. Even if I repay you with all my heart in this life, it will still not be enough.

However, since I was granted the throne, I have not made any contribution. How dare I accept the reward from Your Excellency? I feel guilty, so I politely declined. It is not disrespectful to Your Excellency. I hope that Lord Yongning will understand my mistake."

Seeing Liu Yuchi being so obedient, Earl Yongning stopped scolding him and said to him with a smile, "Okay, everything is easy to talk about. Yuchi, please sit down first, I have something to tell you."

Liu Yuchi bowed again before returning to his seat and sitting back down.

"Yu Chi, I would like to ask you to go on a mission for me. Are you willing to go?"

Liu Yuchi was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied, "Yuchi is willing to go!"

"Hahaha……"

Yongning Earl Zhang Cheng laughed heartily and asked him, "How dare you agree to this without asking where we are going or what we are going to do?"

Liu Yuchi saw the opportunity coming, and he stood up and saluted, vowing: "I will go through fire and water for you, my Lord, to repay your kindness. Liu Yuchi will do anything for you!"

"it is good."

Yongning Bo praised him loudly, waved his hand and said with a smile: "You are already my confidant, there is no need to be so polite. Sit down and talk quickly."

When Liu Yuchi heard the word "confidant" mentioned by Yongning Earl, he was shocked and thought to himself, "It's over. I have fallen into Yongning Earl's trap!"
