Chapter 126: Yuhua Pass
The East Gun Town is located in the middle of the East Sage Realm. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
On the tall head of the city, the three gilded characters of "Dongjun City" shine in the sun.
Inside and outside the city gate, many well-dressed sergeants were checking the crowd of people entering and leaving the city gate, and it was in good order.
"It is said that the drought in the western county is very severe, and many of the people in the northern city are starving to death. ”
"Fortunately, our Dongjun is located in the upper reaches of the "Tay River". Although the water source of the "Tay River" is far less abundant than in previous years, it can barely guarantee the irrigation water of the farmland after being intercepted by the dam. ”
"It is rumored that someone came to Xijun City to borrow water a few days ago. ”
"It's not like you're gone, lend them water to Xijun, what do we drink in Dongjun?"
"So, the two sides are fighting again for water, and now the army is in a state of combat readiness. ”
At the door, a few people who looked like people were talking to each other.
"Don't talk about military affairs in public, everyone is scattered. At this time, a man dressed as an officer came over and said loudly.
When they saw the officer walking towards him, they dispersed with interest.
An underground vault in the eastern county town.
A middle-aged man in a white brocade shirt sat cross-legged, the man was quite handsome, but the eye sockets were dark blue, and he looked like he hadn't slept for many days.
In front of him was a fist-sized crystal ball hovering in the air. The crystal ball rotated slowly, and wisps of red, yellow, or green aura continued to emerge from it. The man in white hit the crystal ball with a spell, and these three-colored spiritual qi condensed in the air, and all of them were sucked into the mouth and nose of the middle-aged man. As the three-color aura was inhaled again and again, the dark cyan color in the eye sockets of the man in white gradually receded.
Half an hour later, the man in white breathed out and called it a day, carefully putting the crystal ball into his arms. Standing up, his eyes radiant, like a smoker who had just smoked opium, with an extremely satisfied expression on his face.
The man in white walked to the edge of the wall of the chamber and wrenched his hand on a silver candlestick in the shape of a dragon's head on the wall. The candlestick rotated slightly, and a secret door appeared on the otherwise neat and smooth wall with a "click" sound.
The man in white walked through the secret door, and the wall slowly closed.
A spacious and bright study.
A bookshelf against the wall slowly opened, and the man in white walked out of it.
Sitting at the desk, the man in white looked at the thick folds of books stacked on the desk, picked up the top one casually, looked at it a few times, and threw it aside.
"Li Mansion. The man in white called out loudly.
A moment later, the door was gently pushed open, and a dignified-looking young attendant entered.
"The lowly Li Mansion is waiting, what do you command?"
"I've been in the study for the past two days, has anyone looked for me?"
"Lord Yudong, in addition to the city lord's wife, who came to visit every day, Lord Shoufu also came once yesterday, and I told them that you need to temporarily retreat for two days, and you can't see guests yet. ”
"Well, you're doing a good job, go down, inform Shousuke-sama, and say that my retreat is over, and invite him to come to the study to see me. ”
"Obedience!"
Speaking of me, Li Fu respectfully retreated.
Li Fu had just walked out for a while, and with a "squeak", the door of the study was gently pushed open.
"Tianming, are you there?" said a coquettish woman's voice behind the door.
"I'm here. The man in white hurriedly replied.
A moment later, a woman approached. The woman is dressed in a gorgeous palace dress, tall and tall, with large breasts and a thin waist, phoenix eyes and egg face, and two straight eyebrows revealing a dignified atmosphere.
The woman walked closer, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked at the East County Lord, with a worried expression on her face.
"Tianming, when will your old injury heal, it's been almost a year on and off, I said ask the doctor to take a look, but you won't let me. ”
"Madam, don't worry, this injury is just a little difficult, it's no big deal now, now we are tense with the Xijun side, if the news that I am injured spreads, I'm afraid it will mess up the morale of the army." ”
"I'm just worried that if it drags on like this, the condition will not be good for your health. ”
"Madame, don't worry, I naturally know this matter in my heart. ”
As he spoke, the East County Lord stretched out his hand to grasp the woman's jade hand, and gently hugged the woman into his arms.
The woman pressed her head on her shoulder, showing a gentle gesture.
The two whispered to each other, you and me, husband and wife are in love.
"Shousuke-sama has arrived. ”
Outside the door, the voice of the attendant Li Fu.
The woman hurriedly moved her body away from the East County Lord.
"You have something to do, so the concubine will go back first. After that, he smiled, his beautiful eyes were raised, and the meaning of Lang Qing and Concubine was in the corner of his eyes.
The woman had just walked out of the study when a middle-aged man walked in the door. This person is dressed in a blue Confucian brocade shirt, with good facial features and a gentle appearance.
"Tanglin-kun see the city lord. After speaking, he bowed deeply.
"Shousuke doesn't have to be formal, please take a seat. ”
"I've been in retreat for the past two days, and I don't know what happened to the deployment of the army?"
"My subordinates are about to report this, and our troops have begun to assemble on the border, and the deployment will be completed in the near future. ”
"Well, we can be sure that we will attack the northern city of Xijun first this time. ”
"According to reliable information, a large number of victims have poured into Beicheng, and it is expected that they will be vulnerable to attack. ”
"The first assistant of Xijun City ordered Hu Xia to use his troops to be cunning, he suffered this person's loss in the last war, and this battle must not be underestimated. ”
"What the city lord said is extremely true, the only variable now is the power of Qinghua Mountain City. If we rashly march into the northern city of the western county, it will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the eastern county, although there are not many people in the Qinghua Mountain, they are all bandits. The agreement we made with Qinghuashan was nothing more than a piece of waste paper to bandits like them, and if they took the opportunity to attack our eastern county town, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”
"This is also something that worries me. Originally, this Qinghua Mountain was not to be feared, but a few days ago, a new leader of the "Night Slaughter" suddenly appeared, although this person's cultivation had just entered the True Dan Realm, his strength was very amazing. The last time I fought him for two days and two nights, I only won with half a move. If this person's cultivation goes further, I'm afraid that no one in this little sage realm can match him. If this person is not removed, he will become a great trouble in the future. ”
"The city lord is not worried, his subordinates have a plan. ”
"Come on. ”
"A few days ago, I used the knot pill as a bait to let the "three evils" of Qinghua Mountain secretly hijack Lu Qingyu, the only daughter of Lu Wujie, the lord of Xijun City. The original intention was to distract Lu Wujie, so that we would have an advantage in the ring competition. Although it didn't succeed, this incident proved that the deputy leaders of Naqinghua Mountain and the leaders of that night were not single-minded. We can once again release our interests, and let the "Three Evils" instigate Ye Tu to assassinate Lu Wujie, and when they are both defeated, it will be the day we send troops to Xijun. ”
"I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on the weight of the "three evils" alone. ”
"We only need to give up the border city "Yuhua Pass" in the southwest of Qinghua Mountain to Qinghua Mountain City, Qinghua Mountain City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the direction of Yuhua Pass is its only weakness. We have an agreement with him in advance, and we will give Yuhuaguan as a gift to Ye Tu for nothing, and only ask Ye Tu not to disturb my Dong County in the war between the two sides, I think Ye Tu will gladly accept it. At the same time, we let out the wind and said that Qinghua Mountain City had reached an agreement with our East County, and the soldiers would divide into two routes to take the West County. In this way, Xijun City will definitely adopt various tactics to break through, and the first target must be Yuhua Pass. When the time comes, let the "three evils" instigate the night slaughter to assassinate Lu Wujie, and this plan will most likely be successful. ”
"If this plan fails, wouldn't it be a loss of Yuhua Pass in vain. ”
"The worst result is that Qinghua Mountain City Bai occupies Yuhua Pass. Once it occupies Yuhua Pass, it must allocate one-third of its number to protect Yuhua Pass. In this way, Qinghua Mountain City will take care of itself even if it wants to fish in troubled waters, and it can also prevent Qinghua Mountain City from stabbing us in the back. Once we defeat Xijun, Yuhua Guan and Qinghua Mountain will be in the bag sooner or later. ”
"Okay, just follow the plan of the first assistant!"
.....
On the Juyi Hall in Qinghua Mountain City.
The Grand Chieftain Ye Tu and the other nine deputy leaders were all in the hall.
"Dongjun City has just sent someone, saying that they want to send Yuhua Pass to our Qinghua Mountain City, and they only ask that after the war, we will not be allowed to interfere with one of them. I was willing to accept it, but I thought there would be a conspiracy. Yuhua Pass is not only a choke point in front of Qinghua Mountain City, but also a strategic point on the border of Xijun. Our entry into Yuhua Pass will definitely be regarded as a thorn in the side of the Xijun side, and it will inevitably attack us in a big way. Therefore, I specially asked everyone to discuss this matter. Ye Tu said.
"We have a limited number of people in Qinghua Mountain City, and we can't occupy such a big place, so why bother to go to the troubled waters between the east and west counties. Xuan Daoren said.
"Don't do it in vain, don't do it at this time, can we guarantee that they won't turn around and attack us once the war stops?" said Leng Daoren.
......
Everyone expressed their opinions, and the attitude of wanting and not accounting for half of the situation.
But Xu Yang and the three of them did not express their attitude on this matter.
Ye Tu looked at Xu Yang and said, "Second leader, do you want to do it or not." ”
Seeing Ye Tu ask himself, Xu Yang replied, "I think it should be." The benefits are obvious, with Yuhua Pass, Qinghua Mountain City is even more unbreakable. Dongjun's intention is obvious, that is, to use Yuhuaguan as a bait and let Qinghuashan act as a pawn, so as to consume Xijun's combat power.
The relatively weak Qinghua Mountain is sandwiched between the powerful West County and the East County, and if it wants to survive, it must be left and right, and finally form a three-legged momentum to last for a long time. The occupation of Yuhua Pass is the first step in the development and growth of Qinghua Mountain.
Dongjun wants us to fight with Xijun, if we don't fight, we can send people to lobby Xijun and promise that Qinghua Mountain City will not attack Xijun first. The army of Dongjun has begun to deploy, and after a long time, seeing that Xijun does not attack Yuhua Pass, it is naturally impatient and will inevitably take the initiative to attack Xijun. We reap the benefits, so why not. ”
"What the second master said is reasonable, so I will put this matter aside for the time being, and when I go back and think about it, this church meeting is over, and everyone will disperse. "Night Slaughter didn't make a decision right away.
At night, Ye Tu summoned Xu Yang alone.
"I've considered your suggestion, but how can we convince the West County City that we will keep our promise not to attack them?"
"Didn't Brother Night Slaughter think that after Qinghua Mountain City and Dongjun reached an agreement before, Xijun was surprisingly calm?" Xu Yang didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.
Ye Tu frowned and said, "You mean to say that the spies from the West County have already been mixed in Qinghua Mountain City?"
"If my guess is correct, this person is likely to be among the several leaders, and it is precisely in this way that Qinghua Mountain's intention to infringe on the interests of Xijun for the time being will be accurately transmitted back to Xijun, and Xijun will not take decisive action against Qinghua Mountain City. ”
After listening to Xu Yang's words, the green light flashed in Ye Tu's green eyes, revealing a trace of ruthlessness.
"The great chief should not be in a hurry, and it would be better for this spy to leave him here for us to use. To tell you the truth, I had a relationship with Lu Qingyu, the eldest lady of Xijun. As long as I send someone to send a letter from me to Xijun, clearly informing Lu Qingyu that Qinghuashan has no intention of uniting with Dongjun to attack Xijun, plus the spies among us will definitely send the same information to Xijun. I guarantee that even if we accept Yuhua Pass, Xijun will not embarrass Qinghua Mountain. ”
