0049 Return to Nanyang
So, as the night approached, Kou Xingtian led Princess Wuyaluoshili, Yugu, and the ghost mastiff to bid farewell to the moon in the water and the ancient demon ape, and the three of them beat their horses out of the gate of Jiangling City, and went straight to Nanyang.
From Jiangling to Nanyang, there is Xiangyang, the capital of Nanqing Kingdom, Kou Xingtian was not interested in entering the capital to continue to stay and delay, he returned to his heart like an arrow, so he made a detour to Xiangyang.
Along the way, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, hurried with all his might, and only after a few days, did he see that he had arrived at the Nanyang realm.
Fortunately, Emperor Nanqing learned from the pain and worked hard, the entire country has been governed quite well, the people's livelihood has gradually recovered, and the order is almost established.
If it weren't for the fact that the Wumeng Empire was too powerful, always eyeing the border, invading the border and violating the border, if it was really given to the Nanqing Emperor for more than ten years and decades to enter the world, it would really be possible to restore the country and make it possible for the Daqing Dynasty to flourish again.
However, the Wumeng Empire was too fierce to give the Nanqing Emperor enough time to rise, and this was the most obvious and severe crisis situation in front of him.
The ground of Nanyang is quite large, and like Jiangling, it also belongs to a prefecture, which has jurisdiction over more than ten large counties, including Xinye, Wan, Huyang and so on.
Koujiazhuang is in Wolonggang, Nanyang Mountain, this Nanyang Mountain has a very wide range, a radius of thousands of miles, and the big one is not Koujiazhuang, but the black wind village.
The bandits of Heifeng Village gathered and roared, robbed houses, and the five owners of the village were extremely vicious, making the entire Nanyang Mountain far and near unpeaceful.
Due to the remoteness of Nanyang Mountain, the terrain and terrain are quite complex, the Black Wind Village has all the geographical advantages, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Nanyang soldiers of the Nanqing Dynasty can not attack at all, and they cannot exterminate this banditry.
After several failed attempts to attack and suppress the bandits, they gave up and let it go.
After arriving in Nanyang County, the jurisdiction where Nanyang Mountain is located, on this day, several birds of prey suddenly flew in the sky, and after hovering in the sky for a while, they all landed on the ground.
It turned out that these were the birds of prey domesticated by the Persian princess Uyakashri, including the largest and majestic golden eagle, a peregrine falcon, and four or five flying eagles.
On that day, Yi actually flew too fast with his flying sword, and these birds couldn't keep up at all, and they were all left far behind, thinking that they had been lost from now on, and I was afraid that they would never be seen again.
Unexpectedly, today, they miraculously found their master's side en masse, so that Princess Wuya Kashli and these birds of prey were finally recovered.
When Princess Wuya Kashri saw them again, she was very happy and excited, and immediately called Kou Xingtian to find a high-grade inn in Nanyang County and rest first.
He ordered the best meat in the store, and couldn't wait to treat all of them to these fierce birds.
"The situation in Nanyang Mountain doesn't seem to be optimistic," Kou Xingtian walked into the guest room from the outside and said to Princess Wuya Kashli and Yugu who were feeding the eagles, "I just asked the store and many people in the county to inquire about the current situation in Nanyang Mountain, and they all said that the bandits are powerful, and everyone is afraid of this group of bandits, and they are extremely panicked." ”
"Then what should I do? Your forces are all in Jiangling, far away from here, if you mobilize troops and horses, I am afraid that you will arouse the suspicion of the imperial court and be held accountable, but you will be in trouble," Wuya Kashri shook her head and said.
"You, me, or Yugu, our personal strength is not enough to deal with this gang of bandits, their five village bosses, I heard that all of them are extremely good, and we must not be hard to shake head-on, and kill ourselves. ”
"This is exactly what I'm worried about, if the Ancient Demon Ape comes with me, maybe I can fight them once, the victory or defeat is at least five or five, and I don't know until I fight. Now that the primeval demon ape is not there, then it can't be considered in terms of directly confronting the bandits. ”
Kou Xingtian is thoughtful and thoughtful, almost everything, although he is small, he is young and old, and his scheming is not small.
"And they still rely on the geographical advantage, the official is helpless against them, so it is becoming more and more rampant, not only usually disturbing the surrounding areas of the county at will, but even sometimes a large number of bandits are dispatched to directly attack the county. ”
"It seems that we are going home, and there is another great test and tribulation!"
"What should you do, then? Can you think of a good way to deal with this gang of bandits, and then make it up the mountain?" asked Princess Uyakashri again.
It's good that Aunt Yu won't interject when she is killed, and she is very scrupulous in her identity and duty.
Kou Xingtian shook his head helplessly and sighed: "I can't go up the mountain right now, go back to find out the situation of my Koujiazhuang in Wollongong, but we can't go up the mountain and be captured by the bandits, and throw ourselves into the net!"
"Also, our family doesn't have the protection of the Eight Array Diagram, which is equivalent to losing all protection, and can only be plundered and bullied by bandits, I really don't know what the situation of Koujiazhuang after the robbery is, I'm so worried." ”
"My flying eagles were originally scouting the enemy's intelligence on the grassland, they are all scout eagles, why don't we leave them at the inn and let them go to explore the real situation of the bandits in the entire Nanyang Mountain, and then make plans?" Princess Wuya Kashri happily offered her advice.
"I think it will be difficult to break through to them from the outside," Kou Xingtian shook his head, "There are so many thieves that we can't do anything if we know their details, only by pretending to take refuge in them, first penetrating into them, slowly approaching their power core, dividing from within, and making an internal breakthrough is feasible." ”
"You want to pretend to be a little thief and take refuge in them?" asked Princess Uyakashri with her big blue eyes, flashing in surprise.
"Yes and no, I have a better plan," Kou Xingtian nodded slightly, and shook his head slightly, "I probably understand that in order to resist this gang of thieves from invading the surrounding counties, Nanyang Mansion has about 15,000 government soldiers stationed in Nanyang County, and the other two county towns adjacent to Nanyang Mountain. ”
"Among them, Nanyang County is the first duty of garrison, where 8,000 government soldiers are stationed to defend against thieves, led by a government soldier general and four commanders, we may be able to take advantage of this force. ”
"How can you mobilize them? You are not a Tai Master of Nanyang Prefecture, you can't dispatch them, and they have repeatedly failed to suppress thieves, so they have long lost their confidence and fighting spirit in suppressing thieves, and they just want to get by and protect themselves. ”
"That's why I thought of using you as a beauty, maybe it's the key to determining the whole victory or defeat?"
"The county is so small here, it is rare to meet a beauty like you, and it is still a rare Persian princess, as long as you take off your veil, set up a stage on the most lively street in the county, dance a few of your Persian dances, and show your face, I am afraid that it will immediately cause a sensation in the entire county, and even Nanyang. ”
"I'm about to attract the attention of the gang of thieves in the Nanyang Mountains, arouse their interest and desire, they must want to capture you alive and be their wife. ”
"What if it is self-defeating and causes me to be harassed by them all day long?"
"As long as you are remembered by them all day long, it will be easy to do, that is, we will set a trap to lure them into the middle of the urn and have a good opportunity to catch turtles in the urn!"
"Do you want to mobilize the Nanyang County garrison, set up an ambush, and then use me as a bait to lure the bandit leader to lead the army to kidnap me with great fanfare, and lead them all into the ambush circle to encircle and annihilate me?"
"Exactly!" Kou Xingtian nodded firmly, "Once this annihilation battle is successful, this group of bandits will lose at least half of the bandits, and from then on, their vitality will be greatly damaged, and it will be much easier to exterminate the rest of their troops next, this is an extremely important breakthrough." ”
"Well, even if I'm willing to go out and be your bait, then how can you say that the soldiers here will obey your command?"
"Also, even after the victory of the encirclement and annihilation, there are still nearly half of the remnants of the bandits, they all wandered into the Nanyang Mountains and hid deeply, these soldiers have no way to take them, and the threat of your Koujiazhuang has not been eliminated, isn't it useless?"
"That's why I can't reveal my true identity in front of the bandits, and I have to hide it from beginning to end, until the bandits are ambushed, and when the soldiers are more than halfway down, their morale is low, and their ferocity is greatly reduced. ”
"Also, in their heyday, they are arrogant, it is very difficult for you to break into them, and it is even more difficult to get their attention, it is too difficult to break into its core and subvert it as soon as possible. Princess Wuya Kashri was stunned for a moment.
"And when they lose power, they feel that the general trend has gone, and when their hearts are at their lowest, your refuge is undoubtedly equivalent to sending charcoal in the snow, and you will quickly get their attention, so that you will quickly become their cronies, break into the core, and quickly disintegrate and divide them. ”
"Exactly, at that time, coupled with your perfect cooperation with me on the outside, it would be easy to deal with this whole gang of bandits," Kou Xingtian nodded deeply.
"However, if you don't reveal your identity and expose yourself, then who will persuade this group of government soldiers stationed in Nanyang County? Do you want me to convince you, or even ask me to use a beauty trick from beginning to end, first persuade the Nanyang government soldiers, and then implement the plan to lure the bandits?"
"No, you can pretend to be my uncle's eldest son Kou Taicang's daughter-in-law who came back from the Western Regions, Kou Taicang has no time to go back to Nanyang Koujiazhuang because he has important matters, so he will first send you back to Koujiazhuang alone to visit your father, and I am now your servant, Yugu is your servant, escort you have found this Nanyang County. ”
