The summer wilderness, although it is green and green, but there is not much life, the land that has been war-torn for a long time is far from recovering, and the three counties of Fanyang Mansion have enough sparks to set the prairie on fire.

The wilderness outside Qizhou City is barren, and the knee-high weeds are swaying with the summer breeze, as if they feel the breath of war, and the weeds are also drooping their heads, and the horses' hooves in and out of the city are stepping over, which proves that there is still a smell of people here.

There are not many changes in Qizhou City, everything is still in order, under the principle of "not fighting unprepared battles", Wuze Deng Jieyu has already made follow-up arrangements after capturing the city, and after the emergency repair of the city gate and city wall, coupled with the rapid cleaning of those war ruins, no one dares to believe that this is a city that has experienced war before the tenth month.

However, even in the county seat, more than half of the villagers in Qizhou are still struggling with poverty and hunger, which also brings some trouble to Wuze Deng Jieyu, but fortunately, Fanyang Mansion is now rich and rich, and the relief method of cash-for-work can continue for a while.

Qizhou City was a guard of Fanyang Mansion's troops, the news of the first battle, has already spread to Siye, in this era, it is tantamount to a miracle, even if it is as strong as the Hedong Army, the strategy is like Guo Wei, the city in the river has been besieged for half a year, but it has not been broken so far.

And the same county town, even for a whole day, how not to make people frightened, such a record so that Liu Jingwu of the Qingzhou Pinglu Army, did not dare to use the sword soldiers, in Binzhou and other places to send additional manpower to defend against the enemy, but also sent a large number of scouts to investigate the direction of Qizhou.

The children of Qizhou City, the Qizhou battalion has also been transferred to Wu'an City to participate in the training of the recruit camp, and Lu Chong also continued to be the county guard of Qizhou as he wished, at this time there were nearly 10,000 troops stationed in Fanyang in Qizhou, and the wind wolf guard left a battalion, and the other battalion heads were transferred back to the three passes in the north, but Deng Jieyu also stayed in Qizhou.

……

The south of Qizhou is not quiet, Liu Feng and Liu Jingwu did not continue to fight in the court, but set their eyes on the next battle, and the moment before the war was the time of scouts.

In order to get the most accurate information, the scouts on both sides started a fight in this wilderness, and Liu Mou, the head of the scouts, was the best in the wind wolf guard, and on a summer night, the cool breeze was blowing.

Several horses galloped through the vast wilderness, their hooves tossing up the dirt and the juice of the grass.

The first person, with a fierce expression, a black black horse, a strong bow, a javelin, a slender riding knife, and sophisticated weaponry, made him like a tiger, this is Liu Mou.

He has been fighting for many days in this wilderness, relying on his armor and sword, keeping a close eye on the scouts of the Pinglu army, and killing and wounding dozens of scouts of the Pinglu army in a few days.

Bringing great trouble to the Pinglu army, Liu Jingwu only learned in the rout of Qizhou that the Fanyang Mansion army had siege weapons, accurate projection of new stone throwing machines, and earth-shattering bullets.

However, all this news, he was half-convinced, in the face of such a fierce enemy, he even regretted for a moment to come to Liu Feng's tiger whiskers, but now he has reached the point where he has to send an arrow.

If he stopped and didn't compete with Liu Feng anymore, how could he, the Pinglu Monarch, be able to deter and rule Xiaoxiao, and such an uncertain war, he was also afraid that he would lose more troops and cause a worse effect because of this war.

……

Pham Duong Mansion, Gaocheng Port.

Because of the importance of the navy, Liu Feng has been sitting in Gaocheng Port to guide.

As soon as Guo Chongtao, who went to Longcheng, returned, he hurried to Gaocheng Port and reported to Liu Feng.

Liu Feng welcomed the dusty Guo Chongtao into the meeting hall, such an honor, Yuwen Jiayou Li Qi and others on the side were also extremely envious, and Guo Chongtao's heart was full of emotion, and he hurriedly thanked him.

Liu Feng waved his hand to signal that there was no need to be polite, and then sat in the first place, and when Guo Chongtao was a little calm, he asked: "What changes can be made in the DPRK?" ”

Guo Chongtao is also accustomed to Liu Feng's casualness, but he stayed in the court with strict rules and hierarchies for a few days, and today he suddenly experienced that Liu Feng's peaceful way of treating people is a little uncomfortable.

He arched his hand and said: "The situation in the DPRK and China is secretive, and the saint is wary of the two generals Guo Wei and Shi Hongzhao, and all kinds of deeds in the court show that the saint has the heart to get rid of the two!" ”

"It's hard to be a minister!" Liu Feng sighed with emotion, for a general like Guo Wei, if the son of heaven of Shengming can allow him to disarm and return to the field, and be a prince, if he is a weak master, he can only fly all the birds and hide the good bow; The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook.

"General Shi is a pure military man, upright and iron-faced, and because he despises the scholars in the court, he has also been squeezed out by the literati, if the current saint intends to put him to death, even if he is the commander of the forbidden army, it is easy to think about it!"

Hearing Liu Feng's emotion, Guo Chongtao commented on the straightforward general,

"Hmm!" Liu Feng bowed his head, and then asked in a deep voice: "In this way, General Guo is also in danger?!" ”

"This is not necessarily, there are a lot of talented people around General Guo, and the current situation must have been planned for General Guo a long time ago, and maybe he has the heart to replace him!" Yuwen Jiayou stroked his beard and said,

When everyone in the hall heard this, they didn't show too much surprise, when today, if there are soldiers and land, they are the masters of one party.

Guo Chongtao said indifferently: "The king's envoy's capture of Qizhou City this time surprised the ministers of the court, but because he had discussed this matter in the court in advance, it did not cause much controversy among everyone. ”

"And that's to be expected!" Liu Feng said: "We took Qizhou City cleanly, but also so that everywhere no longer underestimates my Fanyang Mansion!" However, the effect of this battle is really surprisingly good, and so far Liu Jingwu of the Pinglu Army still does not dare to use all his troops and horses to recover Qizhou City! ”

The crowd laughed heartily.

But when everyone laughed and relaxed, Liu Feng, Guo Chongtao, Yu and Wen Jiayou did not have much joy, Liu Feng and Wen Jiayou wanted to speak and stopped, so they nodded and signaled him to speak bluntly.

Yuwen Jiayou got up and strode to the mountain map hanging on the wall, Liu Feng and Guo Chongtao also stepped forward, Yuwen Jiayou took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "General, if there is a big change in the court, the situation of our Fanyang Mansion is a little delicate!" ”

Liu Fengyu figured, bowed his head slightly, but was silent.

Yuwen Jiayou continued: "If the DPRK and China want to attack the Hedong Army, they must unite the generals to succeed, and now that my Sergeant Fan Yang is so strong, I want to come to the Hedong Army and the DPRK to win us over!" ”

Guo Chongtao's eyes flashed, he had already guessed Liu Feng's thoughts, and said with a smile: "The general is a general?" ”

When Liu Feng heard this, he thought for a while, and said lightly: "A certain person who knows that the Hedong Army helped me in danger is a person with clear grievances!" ”

Guo Chongtao said again: "My subordinates have heard that General Guo is also a person of faith, so why don't the generals form an alliance with General Guo!" ”

"Oh!? I want to hear about it! Liu Feng said loudly.
