And a lot of rouge powder that has been smeared to hide his pale face has already appeared with a few imperceptible longitudinal lines.

They all understood that it was Xia Bing'er with sweat stains on her face.

Gu Xuzhang looked at Gai Mo and Ji Chengye with unkind eyes: "If you don't have anything to say, then go back and do your job, not only should we not worry about the matter of Sakura He, but we should be happy, Shangguan has no time to take care of all the affairs of the forest land now, all we need to do at this time is to eliminate Shi Qian!"

"Xia Guan has nothing to say. ”

Ji Chengye immediately replied, but Gaimo glanced at Ji Chengye and the people behind him, gritted his teeth and walked out of the queue, and bowed to Yang Fengqing: "General, the last general has something to say." ”

Gemmer directly skipped Gu Xuzhang, who was questioning, and spoke to Yang Fengqing, which was beyond everyone's expectations, especially "Yang Fengqing".

Qiu Hongshen continued to close his eyes, pretending not to hear.

Xia Bing'er raised her hand and swept it in front of Qiu Hongshen's eyes, and she didn't panic in the face of the strange look below: "There have been a lot of affairs recently, and the general has just rushed back from Linqiu City, so it's too tired, General Gai, you can say it directly." ”

As mentioned earlier, there are several circles at the decision-making level of Tiance.

Gemmer belonged to the circle of two hundred people at the beginning, while Xia Bing'er was another circle.

Although the counting and multiplying industry is the same as Jin Yinshan, the circle of the former Beilin officials, but the reason why the counting and multiplication industry can be out of the ordinary, Xia Bing'er is the first reason, and whether there is a deeper relationship between them, Gaimer does not know.

But—

He believes that Xia Bing'er's loyalty to Yang Fengqing must be the same as him!

Even if he dies, he will protect Yang Fengqing's foundation!

"Ji Chengye enjoyed all the benefits obtained by Tiance, and when he learned that Sakura and attacked Shangguan and Zhang Wang, he bluntly said in front of all his colleagues, "Anyway, I can't resist Sakura Iwa, it's better to surrender to the enemy" Such people are angry with the gods, and the last general thinks that he should be dismissed!"

Ji Chengye heard the voice of Gemmer who had been scolding him before, and he felt that something was wrong, after listening to Gammer's words, he also thought of a countermeasure, and without waiting for Xia Bing'er to ask, he knelt down first, wept bitterly, and his head slammed on the stone slab: "Before the lower official, I saw that the morale of all my colleagues was low, so I deliberately used words to provoke them, in order to make everyone hate the enemy, the general please Mingjian! And the lower official is a person and does things, there is a heavenly jian, and the people look at it, and the lower official has everything today, relying on Lord Xia's open-mindedness, regardless of past suspicions." What Xia Guan thinks about every day and night is how to repay Tiance, and how to do his best!"

"You-the way you do your best is to befriend all the officials of the former Beilin?"

"General Gai, you are really ridiculous! This official has indeed made friends with some former Beilin officials, but there are also many former Liaodong officials. Moreover, the reason why this official is like this is because he can combine the strength of his colleagues to deal with various difficult affairs at the first time. ”

Gemmer is just a military general, and the polemic is not an opponent of the calculation industry, which is just reasonable.

In a hurry, his head lowered again: "General, the last general dares to be sure that Ji Chengye has bad intentions, please condemn him!"

"General, the lower official sees that General Gai has any misunderstanding about the lower official, please give the lower official two days to explain to him well, and we will definitely be able to reconcile the relationship between us." ”

Xia Bing'er above didn't speak, and only after seeing that the heads of the two of them went down did she speak quietly: "There is indeed some misunderstanding between the two, let's talk about it within two days, let's go down." ”

"Yes. ”

Ji Chengye answered, got up and patted his official uniform, and left first, and the official who was standing near him before also left quickly.

"Lord Xia, General!"

Gemmer raised his head and shouted suddenly, but Xia Bing'er and "Yang Fengqing" got up and walked down.

Gu Xuzhang and Hua Ji walked in front of Ge Mo, Gu Xuzhang patted Ge Mo's shoulder, and looked at Ji Chengye, who was walking in front and was in high spirits: "Get up." ”

He glanced at the more than two hundred civil officials and military generals who were still standing in the hall: "You all hurry back, just perform your duties, there is a reason why Tiance can persist until now." ”

Gammer was about to speak, and several officials came over to grab him: "General Gai, let's go back first." ”

......

In the backyard, in addition to the original person, there is one more person - Yang Zhan.

Gu Xuzhang took out a list and handed it to Yang Zhan: "You take a thousand people and put everyone on this list in prison!

"Yes!"

......

In Weigu City, the coalition forces have long since retreated, but it is still lively here.

There was a burst of cheerful laughter from the City Lord's Mansion, and Shi Qian couldn't remember the last time he laughed so heartily.

It should be, maybe it was the time to follow Yang Fengqing out of the city and kill 20,000 blood tiger iron horsemen.

Thinking of this, the smile suddenly retracted, and the dozens of generals below who were still laughing hurriedly kept their smiles.

Shi Qian's moodiness, even if they have just been promoted, they have long heard of it.

"The south of the Zigong Tianhe River is now our territory, how do you think we can keep this foundation?"

Here it is again, every time Shi Qian asks a question, Zhongsun Han and Yan Guangyuan feel that they are doing life and death multiple-choice questions, if they do it right, they will continue to live, and if they are wrong, they will die!

This time, the two of them pursed their mouths, intending to kill and not speak easily.

But—

"Zhongsun Han, Yan Guangyuan, you two speak first!"

The two looked at each other, wanting to cry without tears, both of them were fallen people at the end of the world.

I knew that when Shi Qian asked who wanted to take in Tiger Roaring City, the two of them recommended themselves over there.

A frustrated thought flashed, and Zhongsun Han got up first: "Although the south of the Gongtian River is our control area, there are only two cities, Weigu City and Nanping City, plus Tiger Roar City, we have a total of three cities, which is comparable to the Zhonglin City that Tiance now controls. However, our troops are only 60,000, and they still have at least 100,000, so the last general thinks that instead of dividing troops to guard against the Tiance army along the Gongtian River, it is better to collect troops in Weigu City and Nanping City, and collect the people and grain and grass south of the Gongtian River into the two cities, and hold the two cities. ”

"Hold on to the city?"

The more Yan Guangyuan cooperated with Zhongsun Han, the more tacit understanding he had, and he got up and spoke: "The last general thinks that General Zhong thinks that the situation is becoming more and more chaotic because of the strong intervention between Sakura and the western forces, and before Sakura and Shangguan and Zhang Wang divide the victory and defeat, Tiance should not attack us easily." And we gathered the people, grain and grass in the center of Weigu City and Nanping City, which is a way to cut off the possibility of Tiance attacking us. Tiance is cultivating and recuperating, and we can also take this opportunity to stabilize the mood of the ruler and the soldiers. The most important thing is to let the soldiers of Yuan Nanlin and Shangguan become a family as soon as possible, only in this way can they completely settle down and fight against Tiance with us. ”

"Hmm-"

Shi Qian couldn't help nodding, he led 40,000 soldiers from Tiger Roar City to Weigu City, there were thousands less people without a battle, and he was struggling with how to make the soldiers not defect.

"Just do as you do, each of you will lead 5,000 soldiers to the Gongtian River, and together with the Star Sword, you will gather from the Gongtian River to this side!"

"Yes!"

......

Even if it is rare to see the scorching sun in recent days, the city of Xiangfeng is still dead.

Boom Boom Boom –

Heavy footsteps came from the corner of the street, and in a few moments, dozens of patrolling Sakura and soldiers walked by.

Many of the windows were secretly opened, and a pair of eyes watched quietly, all of them containing hatred and pain that was visible to the naked eye.

In the study of the City Lord's Mansion, layers of letters were stacked on the desk, and a head was buried behind the high letters.

Da Da Da –

Knock Knock Knock –

"General, General Gongxi has sent an urgent message. ”

With his head raised, Si Kou Haomiao had two big black circles under his eyes, and his eyes were still shining: "Take it in!"

"Yes. ”

Crunch –

A soldier walked in, holding the letter in both hands, placed it on the table, and left with his head bowed.

Si Kou Haomiao pushed away something that occupied the table, and picked up the letter that the soldier had just brought in.

After looking at it for a while, he got up and walked to the window, putting his hands behind his back: "Have you only reacted until now? The so-called four major forces in the west are just paper tigers, and they will destroy Shangguan and Zhang Wang before winter! The remaining woodland and Nanhe are not to be worried about, and they will be cleaned up next spring or summer!"

The hair on his sideburns was blown up, and the corners of Si Kou Haomiao's mouth raised a meaningful smile: "Yang Fengqing, are you back? What kind of person are you? But don't let me down, and don't let Qiongmei down, hehe——"

......

Because Shangguan's territory is separated by two large mountain ranges in the middle, it has never been very convenient to travel between the north and the south. The capital city of Gaoyi is in the south, in order to strengthen the control of the north, the north is slowly appearing a city that is not named as the capital of the capital, but the function is no less than that of the capital - Ziwan City.

Ziwan City has a resident population of nearly 400,000, making it the largest city in Shangguan after Gaoyi.

Now there are crowds of people in Ziwan City, and there are countless soldiers and homeless people who sleep on the ground, sighing and sadness fill Ziwan City.

In the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, the furious Shangguan Moucheng kept slapping the handrails: "What the hell is going on? Why didn't Xiangfeng City survive even one night? Now that the city has fallen into the hands of Sakura and the forward Gongxi Zhengchu, Sakura and the army will come to the city in a few days! You should tell the head of the family what we should do?"

Located more than 60 miles east of Ziwan City, Hugh City can be regarded as the second line of defense against Sakura.

After roaring, Shangguan Moucheng's eyes finally focused on Zhong Qixi.

Zhong Qixi sighed and walked out of the team: "There is no perfect plan now, all you can do is to do your best." Defend Ziwan City first, and then try to recover Hugh City and Xiangfeng City. ”

"Well, in the future, all military affairs will be taken over by the military. ”

Zhong Qixi sighed again, if it weren't for Zhong Qixi wasting so many of their soldiers in vain, he wouldn't be so passive now.

But no matter how sorry Shangguan Moucheng is for him, he can't be sorry for Shangguan Moucheng, if there is no Shangguan Moucheng, what would he be like now?

Without thinking about the outcome, his unwavering voice, as before, made it all clear: "Yes." ”

......

There is a mountain range called the black bird in the northeast of Nanping City, the origin of the name of the mountain range, in the mouth of the people nearby, there is a strange bird on the mountain, the whole body is black, the call is hoarse and ugly, if anyone encounters the black bird or hears the black bird call, it indicates that the family is going to encounter something bad.

So as time went by, fewer and fewer people went to the Blackbird Mountains nearby, and even the cowherds chose to go outside the mountains with less forage.

The meaning of the White Bird Town, which is known at a glance, is to eliminate the bad luck that the Black Bird Mountain Range may bring to the people who live in it.

White Bird Town is only thirty or forty miles away from Weigu City in a straight line, but the road is extremely rugged and difficult to walk, if you really want to go from White Bird Town to Weigu City, it will take at least three days to walk, so it has never been cared about by the people of Weigu City and other big cities.

The people of White Bird Town felt the contempt of the people of Ayutthaya for them, and they didn't want to go out and suffer that sin, so over time, there was a sense of paradise here.

The battle was hot outside, and the recruiters didn't get here, maybe they really forgot such a place.

There is movement and quiet, and after many years of calm, there is still a big event in Shiratori Town that shocked the entire town!

The Luan family, a big family in the town, was rumored to have disappeared a few days ago.

The Luan family offered a reward within a few hours after that, as long as they could find those families, they could get a few acres of land.

With such a big benefit, although it was also heard that the family members had gone to collect herbs near the Blackbird Mountains and disappeared, there were still many young men who went to look for them.

The smarter people also found a large group of people from the neighborhood to go there.

One day, two days, today is the third day, not to mention the original people, even the hundreds of people who went later are gone.

A town of only 6,000 people suddenly lost hundreds of young and strong men, and the whole town was about to explode.

The family members of those men gathered outside Luan's house, yelling and shouting for explanations, and there were many old, weak, sick and disabled people, crying on the side, and the whole situation was a mess.

Some people with ulterior motives hid inside to fan the flames: "It must be that the Luan family has done something disrespectful to the Blackbird Mountain Range, so now the Blackbird Mountain Range has begun to punish us." ”

"The revenge of the Blackbird Mountain Range will never end like this, it will definitely take revenge on our relatives who went to the Blackbird Mountain Range!"

"All the people of the Luan family must be sacrificed to the Blackbird Mountain Range, otherwise our entire town will not be spared!"

Some people who were watching the play on the sidelines heard this, where is this?

So the chaotic team of only more than 1,000 people at the beginning instantly increased to 2,000 people, and if it goes on like this, within half an hour, the people of the entire town will rush to the outside of the Luan family's compound, and at that time, everyone in the Luan family will be killed by the angry people.
