Not to mention how to give Sheng Weiqiao a long memory of the sleeping crane, at this moment, in the village not too far from the inn, Meng Jiaqian woke up from a coma.

Left and right were relieved, and were about to step forward to ask for warmth, but Meng Jiaqian was already hoarse and asked, "What's the situation now?"

"General, we haven't met anyone since that night, so it's the same. The subordinates were worried that he had just stabilized his injuries and recounted the heavy losses, so don't make him angry again, and said carefully, "How are you now?"

Meng Jiaqian was silent for a while, what discomfort would he have?

He would simply not have a place to be comfortable!

An unexpected enemy attack, an unbelievable defeat, a bleak future, a predictable wrath from his elders, and a disappointment that frightens him more than the rage...... Young Meng Jiaqian only felt that the past short period of time was simply a nightmare!

And Rong Sleeping Crane is undoubtedly the source of his nightmare.

“…… Now is not the time to leave me alone. The resolute temperament cultivated in the army since he was a child finally overwhelmed the anger and frustration surging in his chest, Meng Jiaqian took a deep breath and said weakly, "Gather all the people who can still fight, and use the remaining horses to raid Jishan!"

Left and right stunned: "General, we don't have many horses left, and we don't have ...... baggage."

"It's because the baggage is gone, and Mi Zhen will inevitably start from here to take care of us, so at the moment, we can only fight the idea of the Jishan thief. Meng Jiaqian coughed a few times and said in a low voice, "In order to cooperate with Mizhen's sneak attack on us, the Jishan thieves have not revealed that they have already returned to Mizhen, so their family must still be in the main village of Jishan! And our lost horses and baggage have fallen into their hands, calculate the time, they should not have returned to the main village at this time...... This is our chance to get some interest back!"

"But we have too few war horses now, even if the sneak attack on the Jishan thief village is successful, I'm afraid we won't be able to take too much baggage. He hesitated left and right, "Moreover, the Jishan pirates have been crisscrossing the western frontier for a long time, and the western Xinjiang army has not not considered extermination, because its main village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is built strongly, so we have to let it go! If the two armies fight on flat land, we are not afraid of anything." But this mountain is ......"

They are elite cavalry, and what they are good at is to fight head-to-head on the battlefield, but as for attacking the city, it will be greatly discounted.

And in order to be in a hurry, I didn't bring any siege equipment before, if the scale of the main village of the Jishan thieves was larger, even if the people who killed them were closed, it would be useless.

Meng Jiaqian woke up, his energy had not recovered, he said two words, closed his eyes tiredly, and said lightly: "The mountain is difficult to attack, and we must fight!

"......" was silent for a while, then came to his senses and said in a low voice, "My subordinates understand!"

Now the battle with Rong Sleeping Crane has inevitably fallen into disadvantage, and relying on Meng Jiaqian alone, he is powerless. The only hope is that Chang'an and Northern Xinjiang can give more support.

The problem is that although the Meng family is powerful, there are also many children, and the elders have limited energy, so it is impossible to take care of all the heirs.

Meng Jiaqian, as Meng Boqin's sister-in-law, is still the most favored fifth son, and he has received a lot of cultivation and resources. Just the 3,000 elite horsemen when he left the northern frontier, how many brothers did he envy? That is, Meng Boqin's eldest son, the future heir of the Meng family's big house, how could he not be jealous?

The result?

Before leaving the school, he almost died, and he rushed all the way to the west to make a stepping stone for Rong Sleeping Crane!

In this case, not to mention the ancestors who didn't get along much with Chang'an, they must think that he is a waste who can only talk on paper, that is, his own father Meng Boqin, who has always loved and favored him, will definitely be disappointed after knowing the news!

In this way, how could they give Meng Jiaqian additional support?

It's not bad if you don't let him go back to Chang'an and be an idler waiting for death!

Therefore, if Meng Jiaqian does not want to be sluggish and has a bleak future, he must seize the time to make some achievements in order to redeem the impression in the minds of the elders of the Meng family.

…… After serving Meng Jiaqian left and right, seeing that he fell asleep again, he left a personal guard to take care of him in front of the couch, and went out to consult with the rest of his companions.

If there is a slow response, he said: "Isn't the general confused? We have just been newly defeated, and we have no suitable equipment in our hands, so we go to fight the main village of the Jishan bandits, even if we succeed, the main force of the Jishan bandits will return to the aid of Mizhen, and we will have to be caught in the urn; if we fail, the remaining few men and horses will be sent directly in." This is unimaginable, and even whether the general himself can leave the western frontier safely is a question!"

"The general just wants to make some achievements for Chang'an, or for the world to see, so that people can know that our general is not incompetent. As soon as these words came out, several people glanced at them blankly, and said hesitantly, "At this time, I only ordered to fight the Jishan thieves...... The Jishan thieves have been entrenched in Western Xinjiang for a while, but not to mention people outside Western Xinjiang, especially in Chang'an, they have never heard of them at all, they are local to Western Xinjiang, and it is difficult for everyone to know them. !"

Seeing that the man had his mouth open, he didn't seem to have fully woken up, so he sighed, "As long as the head is sent up, it proves that we are not defeated or lost, but also found a field to have military exploits, this is not only for our consideration, but also for the Meng clan to cover their faces, Chang'an and the adults in northern Xinjiang, can they still help talk? Although it is said that the Jishan thieves are not easy to fight, there are deserted villages scattered all over the western Xinjiang...... Can't we do anything about it?!"

"Isn't this a good thing?" said the previous person subconsciously, "this ...... What kind of system is this?!"

"What is the meaning of killing good and risking merit?!" Hearing this, the faces of the people were stiff, and after a moment of silence, the worry about their own future took over, and someone sneered, "The Jishan thieves have been crisscrossing the Western Xinjiang for many years, and the Western Xinjiang Army has not been encircled and suppressed, but it has always failed! Although it is said that the Western Xinjiang Army has been erosive for a long time, and it cannot be compared with our Northern Xinjiang Army, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, how can it be the imperial army, how can it be that even a group of bandits can't help it!?"

"This is obviously because there are many people here, who are in cahoots with Jishan thieves, giving them news, selling stolen goods for them, and even secretly mixing with their captivity!"

"So where do the good people come from in this place?!"

"All of them are Jishan thieves' secret traitors, eyeliners and even dependents, and they can all be killed!!"

Although I knew that this person was arguing with strong words, but thinking that his group followed Meng Jiaqian all the way to the western Xinjiang, I thought that they had followed a master with an unlimited future and embarked on the road to take-off, who knew that he would be hit on the head before he arrived at the destination, and now Meng Jiaqian is desperate, and there is only a desperate fight left, how can they not have the same bleak future?

The hatred of the Jishan thieves who helped Rong Sleeping Crane ambush them came to his heart, and his mind was biased towards this kind of rhetoric.

"This is reasonable, what do you think?" At that moment, someone pressed his waist knife and looked at everyone, "If everyone seconds it, then act as soon as possible according to what the general said, and report to Chang'an and Northern Xinjiang as soon as possible!"

Everyone looked at the person who blurted out "killing good and risking merit", this person was closely stared at by a group of colleagues, and his conscience and reason struggled repeatedly for a moment, and finally nodded with a calm face: "Everyone came out of Northern Xinjiang together, although I can't bear it, but after all, brotherhood is more important!"

"You and I, my brother, will not speak such lies. Seeing this, everyone tactfully persuaded them, "Let's move from the north to the west and shed our blood, what are we trying to do? Isn't it just to make meritorious contributions and make a name for our wives and sons? Now that the general has been frustrated, the road ahead is uncertain, and we, who are subordinates, are both prosperous and loss-in, so how can we have good results? Now the general has come up with this plan, which is a good way to survive in death, if you don't use it, you can pay it back as soon as you die, but teach the second elder in the family, as well as the wife and young son, how to deal with yourself?!"

They persuaded each other to throw away their consciences, so they unfolded their plans and discussed in a low voice where to start, earning a share of the credit of "suppressing bandits", so as to explain to the Meng family, or rather, to find a place for Meng Jiaqian's fiasco in front of the world.

At this time, as Meng Jiaqian expected, the main force of the Jishan thieves, who successfully ambushed them, was still packing up a lot of loot, especially the war horses.

On that day, because of the fear of the bravery of the elite cavalry in northern Xinjiang, the Jishan thieves gave priority to killing horses according to Rong Sleeping Crane's orders, resulting in the 3,000 elite cavalry escorting Meng Jiaqian to the post, and the survivor Tai Ban had to change his career to be a foot pawn after this battle.

It's just that in the chaotic battle, in the end, some of the war horses survived after the death of their owners, and they were scattered near the battlefield in fright.

These are all war horses carefully trained by the Meng clan after being carefully selected in Northern Xinjiang, and they have no price, whether they are Jishan thieves or Rong Sleeping Cranes, it is naturally impossible to give up easily.

Therefore, while the dependents of Rong Sleeping Crane stopped in the town to reorganize and collect the carts and horses for heavy loads, the Yoshiyama thieves not only cleaned up the battlefield, but also worked hard to search for traces of lost war horses nearby.

Three days later, Rong Mianhe gathered a group of barely enough carriages and horses from the town and nearby villages, and beckoned the main force of Jishan thieves to set off for Yizhou City, and the results of Meng Jiaqian's party's "suppression of bandits" arrived.

They are all people in remote places, and this kind of village may not have contact with the outside world several times a year, so they can learn about it within a few days, and they are already well-informed about Jishan thieves in Western Xinjiang.

When Wu Da heard the news, he went directly to Rong Mianhe angrily, and demanded that Meng Jiaqian and his party be wiped out: "This group of useless bastards, real knives and guns can't fight us, and they actually raised a butcher's knife against innocent Li Shu, they are simply not worthy of being !!."

However, Rong Sleepy Crane was born as a bandit, and he was used to seeing tragedies in the world, so he was not touched by this situation at all, and shook his head when he heard this: "The combat power of the elite cavalry in Northern Xinjiang is not comparable to your subordinates...... Rao is like this, and the personnel damage is also like them, if it weren't for Meng Jiaqian who kept rushing with injuries, and his subordinates were worried that something would happen to him, they fought and retreated from the beginning of the attack, focusing on covering him to break through, and when it was really bloody to the end, we wouldn't even be able to leave all their baggage at all!"

Now they are like frightened birds, and in their fear, they must be very vigilant. ”

"In this case, we will start a war with them, not to mention whether the place they chose after killing the good and risking their merits will also have prepared traps for us, let's just say that we will have a head-to-head confrontation in the open...... Are you sure your men are going to win?"

He said calmly, "Although the subordinates I brought are fierce, they are not enough in number, and they are not suitable for the battlefield. If you want to plot against the Western Frontier Army, in the final analysis, it depends on your men, and you will fight them all for some strangers at this time, maybe you are happy, but what about the big thing?"

"You are a child of the clan, the bloodline of the Rong family!" Wu Da said with a cold face, "The reason why he traveled west is also because he has the heart to plot for the throne! Then the people of the world are also equal to your future people, what is a stranger?!"

Rong Sleeping Crane didn't raise his eyelids: "As a child, isn't it natural to be sympathetic to the monarch's father?"

"......" Wu Da Da looked at him angrily, and after a long time, seeing that he was always unfazed and had no intention of giving in, he kicked the book case hard and left angrily!

After she left, Gongsun Xi, who was waiting for the pen and ink next to her, frowned and said, "Chief, this big boss has a lot of trouble, do you want to ......?"

He gestured sharply.
