Xun Chen heard that Jia Xu actively supported the dispatch of troops, and he was anxious at the moment, and shouted loudly: "Fighting recklessly will inevitably backfire, it is better to suspend the army for a few years, and then raise troops to ......calm down after the country is prosperous."

"Those who offend me in Huaxia will be punished even if they are far away! If you don't have money, you can temporarily squeeze out a little money, and taxes can also be levied in advance. Jia Xu was also anxious, and his voice became louder and louder.

"It's not easy to send troops, don't make a big move, it's the best policy to rest and recuperate!"

"The border troubles are not endless, the day is not safe, once it is invaded by foreigners, what kind of rest and recuperation is bullshit! At that time, the people will be miserable, and the people will die under the iron hooves of foreigners! If you don't send troops, how can you show the prestige of our Chinese country! ”

Jia Xu and Xun Chen quarreled so much that they had different opinions, one advocated sending troops, the other advocated recuperation, chattering endlessly, and the quarrel was red-faced. Both of them are resolute, and as soon as the two of them are serious, they almost started to move. The big people couldn't persuade them, so they could only wait and see what happened, and focused all their eyes on Lin Nan's body.

"Enough! Have you had enough of the noise? A dignified first-class official, an important minister of the country, but for a little disagreement, and make a big noise, what kind of system! Lin Nan slapped the table and shouted loudly.

After a loud roar, Jia Xu and Xun Chen stopped talking, but the eyes of the two people were not convinced by each other.

"Whether you send troops or not, this matter will stop here, and you will all go your own way. I have my own measure. Tomorrow at noon, I will personally issue the decree, send troops or not, all in the decree of tomorrow! After speaking, Lin Nan got up and brushed his sleeves away.

Everyone watched Lin Nan leave, and said in unison: "Congratulations to the emperor!"

After Lin Nan left. Xun Chen glanced at Jia Xu angrily, snorted coldly, and turned his head away. Jia Xu was also furious when he saw it, and sat there with his chest rising and falling, and he was extremely resentful.

After Lin Nan left the Privy Council, he went straight out of the palace, and then went straight to the Yihou Mansion accompanied by Zhu Gong and Zhu Fair!

In the Yihou Mansion, Ma Chao was drinking sullenly. Holding a wine glass, he drank several glasses in a row, his body was full of wine, his face was red, and he was slightly drunk.

Ma Chao raised his wine glass again, and was suddenly snatched down, shouting: "You give it to me!" ”

"Big brother! Don't drink it, you've already drunk a lot, if you continue to drink like this. Mrs. Sister-in-law...... Sister-in-law should blame me again! Ma Dai stood behind Ma Chao, holding the wine glass he had just snatched. Tsushima Chao shouted.

"Get out of here! I've been in Jicheng for so long, although I was named General Long Xiang, but it's just a fictitious position, I've been idle for so long, what else can I do besides drinking? Ma Chao complained.

Ma Dai said: "How about I accompany my eldest brother out hunting and horse racing?" ”

"Huh...... As soon as you go out, someone will follow. What's the point of being watched all day? I really regret that I shouldn't have taken refuge in Lin Nan in the first place, and I wouldn't have ended up in such a field. Say what to help me get revenge, revenge for bullshit! If you don't give me soldiers and horses, forget it. Still restricting my freedom, such days, still let people live? ”

After hearing this, Ma Dai sighed heavily and said: "It's all the fault of the person named Sima Yi, the eldest brother shouldn't have listened to his opinion in the first place, and Suo Xu and Zhang Xiu would not have surrendered to Cao Cao." ”

"Don't mention to me those two ungrateful bastards, they are all the way with Chen Qun and Yang Xiu! If I ever catch them, I'm going to have to kill them with my own hands! ”

"Master Hou!" At this time, Wang Shuang walked in from the outside quickly, and shouted in a panic, "Subordinates see Hou Ye, Your Majesty xià ......."

"Get out! Don't mention him to me, I'm too lazy to hear this guy! Ma Chao didn't wait for Wang Shuang to finish speaking, so he immediately interrupted Wang Shuang's words and shouted loudly.

"Oh? What if I have to appear in front of you? ”

As soon as the words fell, three figures appeared at the door, and Lin Nan stood in the middle, wishing justice and fairness to protect the left and right.

Ma Dai was stunned for a while, and immediately knelt down and said, "Knock to see Your Majesty!" ”

Wang Shuang also knelt on the ground, surprised at how Lin Nan and the others were so fast, they had already come as soon as they ran over. He knelt on the ground and didn't dare to say anything, but stretched out a hand and gently pulled Ma Chao's clothes.

Ma Chao sat there slightly drunk, his eyes were a little confused, and he vaguely saw three figures walking towards him, but he couldn't see who it was. He thought that his subordinates were bothering him again, so he immediately picked up a wine glass and threw it at Lin Nan, shouting loudly: "Get out!" Fuck off! I don't need you to serve me! ”

When Ma Dai and Wang Shuang saw this, they were all panicked in their hearts, thinking that this time Ma Chao had played a big deal, and he dared to throw the wine glass at the current emperor.

"Huh!"

With a crisp sound, the wine glass was immediately split into four halves, wishing justice and fairness at the same time out of the sword, as fast as lightning, one person slashed the flying wine glass with a sword, when the two of them inserted the sword into the sheath, the wine glass instantly burst into four halves, all fell to the ground, and shattered!

Lin Nan was safe, walked straight to Ma Chao's side, stretched out his hand directly, grabbed the back collar of Ma Chao's clothes from behind, lifted Ma Chao up like catching a chicken, threw it out, and threw it out of the hall, falling heavily on the ground, his clothes were covered with wet mud on the ground, drenched in the drizzle.

"Who the fuck would dare to throw me like that? You fucking ate the leopard's gall, you dare to throw me, Lao Tzu made you unable to eat it...... Walking around ......"

Ma Chao was thrown by Lin Nan like this, and he fell painfully, but he was a little sober, and after getting up from the ground, he saw Lin Nan walking towards him angrily, and immediately panicked, only to know that the person he was abusing was Lin Nan. He hurriedly knelt down and bowed: "Sinner Ma Chao, knock to see Your Majesty!" The sinner didn't know that the emperor had arrived, and he hadn't greeted him from afar, so please punish! ”

Lin Nan walked quickly into the rain, stood in front of Ma Chao, and shouted angrily: "Ma Mengqi! ”

"The sinner is here!"

"Look at your current appearance, do you still look like a marquis, a general? Passed out. I'm not afraid of jokes! You're not ashamed, I'm ashamed! After a few sips of wine, you get drunk like this, why don't you soak in the wine vat, you will die of drinking! ”

"The sinner is guilty, but the sinner can't die yet. The revenge of the criminal minister has not been avenged, and the hatred of the country and the family has not been resolved, and he must not die. As long as His Majesty is willing to lend me troops and let me take revenge, His Majesty will let the guilty minister die when he dies! Ma Chao suddenly became sober and immediately said aloud.

"Do you still know that you have a national hatred and a family hatred to avenge? Do you know you're going to get revenge? I thought you had forgotten! Ma Mengqi, I sue you, it's not that I don't give you a chance. It's you yourself who don't give yourself a chance! Gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late, since you returned to Jicheng with me, every day except for sighing and sighing, you are drunk like mud, have you treated yourself as a real general? I knew you would be so depressed, I shouldn't have brought you back in the first place! ”

Ma Chao is also a fierce person, and he smashed Lin Nan with a wine glass just now, which can be regarded as a great crime of disrespect. Condemnation should be given. When he heard Lin Nan speak like this now, he thought to himself that he would die anyway. Otherwise, if you tell all the troubles in your heart, you will be killed or chopped when the time comes, and you will listen to it.

"I regret it too! I regret that I shouldn't have believed your nonsense, saying that you borrowed troops to help me get revenge, what you said was all bullshit! The more excited Ma Chaoyue said, the more he stood up. His eyes widened, and he shouted loudly, "I, Ma Chao, am not a coward, today I know that I can't live, and you just want to use me as a puppet." Watching me like an animal. What kind of bullshit do you want me to do General Longxiang, I'm not even as fucking as a captain, at least there are four soldiers under the commander, what about me, I'm alone, General Guang Pole. Do you also call me revenge? ”

Lin Nan said angrily: "You're complaining about me, aren't you? But do you know why I'm doing this, have you ever thought about it? You are violent, the former prince of Qin is still powerful, and his heart is full of hatred, I give you soldiers at this time, but I will harm you......"

"You don't give me these useless things! Hurt me? Well, I wish you would give me soldiers to harm me, but are you willing to give them? You don't want me to lead the troops at all! ”

"Good! You want to lead troops, don't you? Very good! Now there is a very urgent battle, Xian Lingqiang is entrenched at the foot of Helan Mountain, instigated by the Wei State, often raiding our borders, I am about to send troops to fight, do you dare to pacify Xian Lingqiang for me? ”

"Why don't you dare!"

"I'll give you fame first, the soldiers I can give you are very limited, except for seven days of food and water, there is no military salary, and Xianlingqiang has two or three hundred thousand people at the foot of Helan Mountain, are you still willing to insist on leading troops to the battle?"

"Yes! As long as you give me soldiers! Even if there is only one, I will go on the expedition! ”

"What if you can't calm down Lingqiang first?"

"I'll show you a head!"

"If there is no basis for my words, why should I believe you?"

"I can make a military order, and my family is here, in addition to the soldiers you gave me, I also have to bring Wang Shuang."

"Yes. When are you leaving? ”

"The sooner the better."

"It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, you can set off today, take Wang Shuang, rush to Shuofang, when you arrive, ask Pang De for five hundred cavalry, seven days of food and water, and nothing else. But you can choose as many armor and weapons as you like, and Pound will not stop you. Lin Nandao.

"Good! That's it. ”

The two discussed and decided, and immediately asked people to prepare pen and ink, and Ma Chao personally wrote a military order, signed his name, and pressed his handprint.

After Lin Nan saw it, he took out his personal seal and stamped it on it, and this was the end of the matter.

Then, Ma Chao took off his muddy clothes, took a bath, put on a drape, took Wang Shuang, and galloped out of the Yihou Mansion and galloped towards Shuofang.

Lin Nan saw Ma Chao leaving, and said to Ma Dai: "Take good care of your family, what is missing in the house, just tell me." If there is any difficulty, just say it, and I will ask the household department to send it to you. ”

Ma Dai shook his head, clenched his fists and replied: "Your Majesty, there is nothing lacking in the mansion, but ...... Missing ......"

When Lin Nan saw Ma Dai squeaking, he asked, "What's missing?" ”

"The only thing that lacks the emperor's trust is the lack of trust." Ma Dai replied unhurriedly, his deep eyes revealing a hot gaze, staring at Lin Nan tightly, as if he was expecting something.

After listening to Ma Dai's answer, Lin Nan couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, and then laughed. He patted Ma Dai lightly on the shoulder, and said slowly: "Don't worry, from today onwards, there will be no one to monitor outside the Yihou Mansion, and you can do whatever you want." Ma Dai. I want you to study in Hokubu Hall and Juxian Hall, would you like to? ”

Although Ma Dai has not been in Jicheng for a long time, he has also heard of the Beiwutang and Juxian Hall, the former was originally a place for generals to learn martial arts, but later gradually evolved into a place dedicated to teaching officers and military affairs, and the latter is a place to teach people talents, which are used to cultivate talents. After he heard Lin Nan's words, he immediately burst into flames and nodded. "I do." ”

Lin Nan smiled: "Very good, when you succeed in your studies, I will be of great use, I hope you can surpass your brother and become a general with both civil and military skills." ”

"No! I'm going to do a lot of hard work. Ma Dai said excitedly.

After Lin Nan left the Yihou Mansion, he asked the secretary to order Chen Qun to draft a holy decree to send troops to conquer Xian Lingqiang, with Ma Chao as the general of the expedition to the west, and Pang De was also temporarily restrained by Ma Chao. Ma Chao was officially given the right to fight, and he was full of confidence in Ma Chao's expedition to the west.

The day after Ma Chao left. Lin Nan then notified various institutions to hold a court meeting in the main hall.

In the main hall, among the Senate, the Privy Council, the Nine Books and others, except for Cai Yong and Lu Zhi, who were unable to attend the meeting, the rest were all present. In addition, the secretary Ling Chen Lin and Tai Shi Ling both sat on the court. The content of the court meeting was recorded at any time, and Sima Yi and Jiang Gan were on the sidelines to observe.

Lin Nan wore a crown on his head and a dragon robe, sat on the dragon chair, and glanced at the civil and military ministers present. He immediately said: "I have sent Ma Chao as the general of the expedition to the west yesterday to pacify Xian Lingqiang, and I am also ready to personally march westward for the purpose of attacking the entire Beidi County of Liangzhou, as the front line of pacifying Liangzhou in the future." ”

As soon as the words fell, Prime Minister Xun Chen immediately stepped forward, knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "The minister risked death to admonish and implore the emperor to take back his life." Although the north-west frontier was constantly troubled, it was not enough to use large troops, as long as it was properly defended. Now that the treasury is empty, the supply of troops is insufficient, and there is no way to raise soldiers' salaries, it is not appropriate to make a big move, and the minister thinks that it is not too late to send troops to fight after the national strength is strong for a few years. ”

Tian Feng, Bing Yuan, and Guan Ning stepped forward together, knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "The ministers seconded the proposal!" ”

"陛xià! If we wait a few more years, the enemy will inevitably become stronger and stronger, and it will be extremely difficult to calm down when the time comes. It is better to take advantage of the current situation to send troops, with lightning speed, to pacify Helan Mountain and occupy the north, which is enough to deter Liangzhou and shock the west! Jia Xu immediately stood up and knelt on the ground and said aloud.

Guo Jia, Xun You, and Gai Xun also agreed, and they knelt on the ground one after another, advocating sending troops to fight.

Lin Nan glanced at this kind of scene, and returned to yesterday's quarrel, advocating rest and recuperation while fighting the main battle. In fact, he already had an idea in his mind.

From Liaodong to the establishment of the Huaxia Kingdom, more than half of the empire's economy came from gold mining. However, it is extremely difficult to mine gold now, because it used to be open-pit mining, and mining is very easy, but now it is necessary to go deep into the cave, with the current mining technology, it is simply not enough to meet the demand, not only gold mines, but also silver mines, iron mines, coal mines, copper mines and other minerals, this situation has occurred.

Just a few days ago, a coal mine in eastern Liaoning suddenly collapsed, burying more than 100 miners alive in the ground. Although the rescue has been allocated, the underground operation is dangerous, and the protective measures of the various mining potholes are not sound enough, so the mining is mainly safe, and the output is naturally low.

The other half of Huaxia's economic source was commercial trade, and Yunzhou became the largest trading city outside the country, and in the past, the profits from trade alone could cover the state's expenses for two years. However, when the trade entered the later stage, due to the distant escape of the Xianbei people and the internal migration of the Karasuma people, the Fuyu people were too poor, which directly led to the decline of Yunzhou, a huge foreign trade city, and the income from foreign trade was greatly reduced. Except for the more prosperous generation of domestic commerce, the rest of the places have not developed, and the tax revenue of commerce is relatively small.

In addition, the Huaxia State built a new capital in Luoyang, and encouraged the restoration of the Central Plains with huge sums of money, and there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers to raise, which directly led to the deficit of the treasury revenue and expenditure.

The faster the development, the easier the problem will be exposed, and Lin Nan knows this deeply, and it will take at least a long time to prosper the country. However, the first Lingqiang entrenched in Helan Mountain is not completely eradicated. Once its power grows, it will be difficult to attack.

Although he had sent Ma Chao as the general of Zhengxi to pacify Xianlingqiang in the Helan Mountain area, from a strategic point of view, gradually encroaching on the entire Hetao area was the key. The Hetao region is rich in hydraulic resources, and many of its alluvial plains are suitable for farming. It can be developed into a new grain production base, and if you control it, you can carry out commercial trade in the Western Regions, and it can also play a role in restraining Cao Cao.

Lin Nan's trip to Guanzhong made him see the difficulty of attacking Guanzhong from the front, at this time he could only walk with his feet, that is to say, he had to go over the mountains and mountains, but the road was difficult, and the logistics could not be guaranteed, if he attacked Liangzhou from outside the Saiwai. Then that's fine. The biggest advantage of Huaxia is the cavalry, the vast grassland outside the Saiwai is the best place for the cavalry to gallop, and now it has mastered many grasslands outside the Saiwai, and the Xianbei people have been driven to Mobei, such a large place, the use of grain and grass is also very easy.

He looked around at everyone and asked, "What is the opinion of the nine Shangshu Lords?" Let's hear it. ”

As a result, the nine scholars made their own statements. Opinions, mostly for domestic development reasons. I agree with Xun Chen's opinion, but there are a few who agree with Jia Xu's opinion. For the first time since the establishment of the Privy Council and the Senate, there has been an extreme disunity of political views.

After listening to everyone's words, Lin Nan said, "Since this is the case, then you might as well listen to me." ”

The whole hall was silent. Everyone was looking forward to Lin Nan's words.

After staring at everyone, Lin Nan took a deep breath and said loudly, "I have decided to ......"

All the ministers held their breath and listened attentively, and their eyes were all focused on Lin Nan's body.

"I decide. Issued treasury bonds and sent troops to the west. ”

As soon as these words came out, there were many joys and sorrows.

Xun Chen said reluctantly: "Your Majesty, at this time, the treasury can't come up with so much money when the army goes west, do you want to hollow out the treasury and spend a lot of money to fight this battle?" Soldiers' salaries, grain and grass will be consumed enormously, and the national treasury will be empty in the first war, so how will the whole country operate in the future? ”

Tian Feng also hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister is resolutely opposed to sending troops to the west, and he can't eat a fat man in one bite, so please think twice about it." ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers seconded the proposal!" Bing Yuan, Guan Ning and others said together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I won't touch a penny of the treasury, didn't I just say that I want to issue treasury bonds!"

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other, what is the national debt, how can they understand?

Seeing that everyone was confused, Lin Nan immediately explained what a national debt is, and after explaining it clearly, everyone suddenly realized, and after thinking about it carefully, they felt that this method was indeed feasible. In the end, Lin Nanli defied public opinion and used the temporary issuance of treasury bonds as a means to let the household department issue treasury bonds according to his wishes, for a period of five years, and set a high rate of return.

After the court meeting was dispersed, Lin Nan left the four lieutenants of the Privy Council alone and said to them: "This time, I want to go west and conquer the north, but the lack of troops has always been a headache for me. Taiwei Guo, your wife is the princess of the Xiongnu, I want to invite you and your wife to go to the Xiongnu garrison, openly recruit Xiongnu warriors, and the recruited soldiers and horses will be led by your husband and wife, cross the river from Shangjun and attack the northern land, and I will appoint Wei Yan to go with you again, and be controlled by you. ”

After Guo Jia heard this, he felt very honored, this was the first time in history that he led the troops alone, and immediately hugged his fists excitedly and said: "The minister obeys the order." Your Majesty, the minister still has something to ask for, and the minister wants to take the women's army with him, I don't know if it's okay? ”

Lin Nan smiled: "No, the Women's Army has another wonderful use, I want to stay by my side and act as a surprise soldier!" ”

Guo Jia stopped talking and stepped aside.

Lin Nan continued: "Gongda, you and Wang Wenjun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, went to Dongyi to recruit troops, Wang Wenjun is more familiar with Dongyi, and once accompanied Hu Yu to pacify Sanhan, where he has quite prestige, this to recruit soldiers, for mercenaries, the salary of soldiers is half of our soldiers, Dongyi has a large population, and it is relatively barren, and it is the best person to hire them to fight and fight on the border." ”

"Obey the order!"

Lin Nan glanced at Jia Xu and Gai Xun, and said with a smile: "The two Tai Lieutenants, this time I am driving in person, and you will accompany you together." ”

Jia Xu and Gai Xun are both from Liangzhou, and they also know Lin Nan's intentions, especially Gai Xun, who still has a certain prestige in the minds of Hu and Han in Liangzhou. The two of them immediately nodded yes.

Lin Nan could not attack Guanzhong from the front, as long as he attacked from the flank, he had to take advantage of Cao Cao's unstable foothold in Guanzhong. Beat the side drum first to let Cao Cao know that he was always paying attention to his movements. Moreover, Guanzhong is already ten rooms and nine empty, if Lin Nan can encroach on the Hetao area step by step, it will be equivalent to cutting off one of Cao Cao's arms.

After the dispersal of the court. The holy decree of issuing treasury bonds was first posted in Jicheng City, Jicheng is now the commercial center of the entire Huaxia country, there are countless wealthy people, once the holy decree was posted, it immediately caused a lot of sensation in Jicheng, and the number of people who went to the household department to buy treasury bonds was as high as 100 people on the same day, and the number of purchases per person was still very large, just a short afternoon, these speculative businessmen. The equivalent of a gold mine has been purchased.

The high return on government bonds is the key to attracting wealthy businessmen to buy them, and in extraordinary times, in order to accumulate wealth, this is undoubtedly the fastest and fastest means.

The next day, Lin Nan asked Guo Jia to hand over some of the money and property, and asked Guo Jia to take his wife Calis, Wei Yan and more than a dozen retinues, and rush to the Xiongnu garrison with heavy money. Xun You and Wang Wenjun also rushed to Dongyi with their accompanying subordinates. And Lin Nan took Jia Xu and Gai Xun to Shuofang, with Tai Shici as the vanguard general. With the army of 3,000 women, he went first last night.

……

Shuofang Mansion, Linrong City, Pang De stood on the city wall, looking at the Qiang cavalry swimming outside the city, with a sad face. For a month in a row, the Qiang often broke through the border. With dozens of small forces constantly harassing his station, every time he sent troops, the enemy retreated, and as soon as he returned to the city, the group returned. Messed him up.

"General, the emperor has sent an edict, please take a look at it!" A soldier held a small note in his hand and presented it to Pound.

After Pang De took it, after taking a look, he said angrily: "With Ma Chao as the general of the expedition to the west, let me be controlled by him?" Why does the emperor attach so much importance to a prince who has died in the country? ”

A few days later, Wumenghu, the commander of Xianlingqiangqu, came to attack Linrong City with hundreds of cavalry, stood under the city, and shouted loudly towards the city wall: "Pang De'er, a gallless rat, huddles in the city all day long, dare to come out and compete with me?" ”

Pound wore a steel helmet, wore steel armor, held a steel knife in his hand, stood on the city tower and looked at the Wumeng Tiger who was shouting outside, hating the root of his teeth, it has been four consecutive days, for four days, this boy named Wumeng Tiger will lead hundreds of cavalry to shout every time, but every time he sends troops, Wumeng Hu will retreat without a fight, so that he is not annoyed.

Today, seeing Wumeng Hu standing here shouting again, he immediately pointed to Wumeng Hu under the city and scolded: "If I go to war, don't run if you have a kind!" ”

"If you don't run, you won't run! If you have the guts, come down, I'm going to fight you for 300 rounds today! Wumeng Tiger shouted.

"Three hundred rounds? Ben will be able to kill you in one round, you wait, you run again, you are my grandson! As soon as Pound's voice fell, he went down the tower with a broadsword, and his lieutenants held on to the city walls, and the crossbowmen did not dare to relax their vigilance.

Pound came to the city gate, turned over and rode a war horse, and went out of the city gate with the five hundred cavalry who had been waiting at the city gate.

This time, Wumeng Tiger surprisingly did not run, and after Pang De saw it, he was a little relieved, thinking that this time he had to kill Wumeng Tiger and achieve a little success.

The two armies faced each other, staring at each other with big eyes, and Pound rode out, pointed at Wumeng Hu and said, "Do you want to fight alone with me?" ”

"Of course!" Wumenghu shook his spirits for a moment, and without thinking about it, he drew the saber in his hand.

"Good!"

Pound shouted, shouted "drive", and then rode out and rushed directly towards Wumenghu.

Not to be outdone, Wumenghu raised his saber and greeted him.

When the two horses intersected, Pound raised his knife and slashed, and Wumenghu hid in a kick, and then dodged Pound's blow, and then turned over and reappeared on the horse's back, and the saber slashed towards Pound's back.

Before Wumenghu's saber could be cut, Pound's broadsword had already returned from the front and blocked his back, but he heard a loud sound of "Zheng", and after the two weapons collided together, it was fleeting, and the two people were separated, and a round ended.

Turning the horse's head, Wumenghu suddenly found that his blade had been chopped up, and he couldn't help but be stunned, so he slashed it, and the weapon in his hand was already rolled, and the weapon in Pound's hand was unscathed, many times harder than his. He didn't care anymore and immediately rode forward, and then started the second round of the battle with Pound.

Pound was carrying the broadsword, and with the first round of the fight, he could feel it. This Qiang man named Wumenghu is not weak in martial arts, and he also calmed down and calmly responded to the battle.

Next, the two of them fought for a total of ten rounds, and after ten rounds. There were already many gaps in Wumenghu's saber, and all the blades were cut.

"Whew! Your weapons are powerful, I won't fight you, my weapons are all cut down! With that, Wumenghu turned his horse's head and immediately began to retreat with his subordinates.

Pound finally fought with Wumenghu this time, and he was willing to give up, shouted "where to go", and chased out with five hundred cavalry.

After chasing all the way south for about four or five miles, two groups of people entered a valley. Pang De was eager to make meritorious contributions, and chased directly to the middle section of the valley, when suddenly a horn sounded, and many Qiang people appeared on both sides of the valley, and the arrows were like rain, shooting towards Pang De in the valley.

At the same time, Wumenghu changed a knife. Take your men and start killing back to the entrance to the valley. was also blocked by a group of Qiang soldiers, besieging Pang De and others again.

Pang De knew the plan, and began to retreat with his subordinates, and when the Wumeng Tiger was killed in front, he personally blocked the Wumeng Tiger and retreated while fighting. There were few of the five hundred cavalry left, most of them dead by arrows, and blood stained the valley red.

"Whoosh!"

A feathered arrow shot directly at Pound's left arm, and the sharp arrow penetrated through the leather armor on his left arm, directly into his skin. Blood flowed when he landed.

Pang De held the big knife, his left arm was injured, and he finally had little strength, so he could only hold the knife with his right hand and fight with one hand, but his knife skills were slightly weaker and he could not resist the siege of Wumenghu and other Qiang people.

There were only about 200 cavalry left behind him, and the arrows of the Qiang people were still shooting, seeing that there were more and more people falling, Pang De couldn't help but look up to the sky and let out a long roar, and roared loudly, the roar resounded through the mountains and forests, and the birds and beasts in the distance flew away, and it was heard far and wide.

Wumeng Tiger didn't care so much, just attacked Pound, seeing Pound injured, he was even more excited, he held two sabers, took turns to attack Pound, and was stunned to suppress Pound's offensive.

Pound's left arm arrow penetrated into the muscles and bones, the pain was unbearable, it was very difficult to raise the knife with one hand to block, and it was already difficult to dodge the cold arrow, if it wasn't for his relatives to block for him, he would have died here.

He noticed that there were fewer and fewer subordinates, and he couldn't help but sigh: "The merit has not been established, and the Hu Lu has not been settled, is it true that I, Pound, am I going to die here?" ”

After Wumenghu heard this, he smiled and said: "It's hard for you to fly with your wings today, and this valley is where you are buried!" ”

Saying that, Wumeng Tiger made another quick attack, and let all the two knives in his hand be cut and rolled, and he didn't care. Suddenly, he saw a flaw in Pound, put away a knife, and slashed at Pound's neck.

Pound saw a chopping knife slashing towards him, he could no longer stop it, his eyes widened, and he shouted to the sky: "My life is at rest!" ”

It was too late, it was fast, and suddenly an arrow flew in the air, with a great force, when the sachet in Wumenghu's hand was about to fall, the arrow directly hit the knife face of Wumenghu, and the arrow directly penetrated the knife surface, Wumenghu immediately felt a powerful force forcing his right hand holding the saber to change direction, which made his heart also shocked.

"Poof!"

The saber fell and directly hit the person's chest, but it was a Qiang man's chest, the Qiang man's chest was split by a knife, the blood flowed, and the internal organs in the chest cavity were still beating, and with a scream of "ah", the Qiang man fell off the horse.

Pound dodged this dangerous blow, and when he saw Wumeng Hu, he was taken aback, and the big knife turned around and slashed at Wumeng Hu's arm.

Seeing this, Wumenghu hurriedly discarded the saber in his hand, hid in a kick, and hid under the horse's belly. But Pound used all his strength to slash directly on the horse's back, the steel knife blade went down, directly cut half of the horse's back, the war horse neighed, the pain was very great, Wumeng Tiger saw it, hurriedly jumped away, saw Pound cut the war horse in two with a knife, and couldn't help but be frightened.

At this time, on the high slope, a young general wearing a silver helmet, wearing silver armor, holding a fire Xuanlu gun in his hand, and riding a white horse under his crotch came out from the back of the Qiang people.

Wumenghu looked at it from afar, but when he saw that face was very familiar, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and shouted in panic: "God...... General Heaven? ”

The person who came was Ma Chao, who was praised by the Qiang people as the general of Shenweitian, as soon as Ma Chao appeared, he killed a group of Qiang people, and the rest of the Qiang people were frightened when they saw Ma Chao, and they had no intention of fighting.

"I am Ma Chao, the general of the Huaxia State Expedition to the West, and you don't want to die and leave quickly, otherwise as soon as the heavenly soldiers arrive, they will all be slaughtered!" Ma Chao occupied the highest place, took a deep breath, and shot out of killing intent in his eyes, which made people shudder, and shouted loudly.

Wumenghu saw bursts of smoke and dust rolling up in the woods where Ma Chao came, covering the sky and the sun, thinking that it was the reinforcements of Huaxia Kingdom coming, and the surrounded Pang De and others also had the tendency to break out of the encirclement, without saying a word, he immediately ordered the withdrawal of the army, grabbed the horse of a cavalry, turned the horse's head, and ran faster than anyone else.

With a "hula", more than 2,000 Qiang people fled in all directions, scrambling to run away, for fear of being caught up by Ma Chao.

Pang De was injured, and when he saw Ma Chao's heroic posture and majestic style, he scared off many Qiang people with just a simple sentence, and he was a little ashamed in his heart. He rode up the hillside, saw a puff of sand and dust rolling up in the direction from which Ma Chao came, looked at Ma Chao closely, and asked, "You shot that arrow just now?" ”

Ma Chao glanced at Pang De, and saw that Pang De was injured, blood-stained armor, burly, with a green beard, and a resolute face, he didn't speak, only nodded lightly.

Pound said: "You saved my life, and I will pay it back to you in the future." ”

Ma Chao let out an "oh", and when he saw the standard-bearer below carrying a big flag with the word "Pang", he asked, "Your Excellency is General Wei Pang De?" ”

"Exactly."

"In Xia Ma Chao, now the general of Zhengxi, you must have received the holy decree, right?"

Pang De once met Ma Chao, it was last year, when Yan and Qin were in a decisive battle in Guandu, in that battle, Pang De could only see Ma Chao from a distance, and he had a little impression of Ma Chao, but Ma Chao had never seen Pang De, so Pang De knew Ma Chao, but Ma Chao didn't know Pang De.

He nodded and said, "I have received it, the emperor asked me to assist you in attacking Xian Lingqiang entrenched in the area of Helan Mountain, and I will naturally spare no effort to help General Ma!" ”

While he was talking, Wang Shuang rode a war horse, drove a few bison galloped from the woods, and some branches were tied to the tail and ox tail of the war horse, hanging on the ground, and bursts of sand and dust were raised during the run, and after the speed slowed down, the sand and dust gradually became smaller.

After Pang De saw it, he was surprised, he thought that Ma Chao really came with a large army, who would have thought that after waiting for a long time, he saw Wang Shuang alone, so he asked: "General Ma, are you ...... What about your soldiers? ”

Wang Shuang galloped to the side of the two people and said, "I am his soldier!" ”

Pound couldn't help laughing and said, "It turned out to be a bare-bones general!" ”

"How can you speak, if it weren't for my general who saved you just now, you would have died. Now that I'm talking cool here, I wouldn't have saved you if I knew it! Wang Shuang saw that there was a hint of sarcasm in Pound's words, so he said angrily.

Ma Chao said: "Wang Shuang, don't be rude to General Pang. General Pang, the emperor asked you to be restrained by me, are you dissatisfied? ”

"Of course not!" Pound shouted.

Ma Chao smiled and said lightly: "General Pang, one day, I will let you admire the five-body body to the ground." However, now that you're injured, it's better to go back and recuperate. The Qiang people are not good at using strategies, and this time they can lure you out of Linrong City, which means that there is a wise man among the Qiang people, and it may be someone sent by Cao Apu's thief. ”

"I was careless this time, and I will never be so careless next time. However, thank you for saving your life, I owe you my life, and I will pay it back to you if I have the chance. As soon as Pound's voice fell, he turned the horse's head, and went down the hill with a "snort" and beckoned his subordinates back to the city.
