"Minghou, are you going to form an alliance with me?" Lei Bo was a little flustered.

His eyes stared at Mu Jing, and his expression was a little hard to believe.

There's a lot of meaning in that.

After all, with his status and power, he is only a watchdog at best, and he can't compare with a prince, and it is impossible to compare with Mu Jing, the Ming Marquis.

Once the alliance is successful, it still means that Mu Jing has put him in the same position.

But why did Mu Jing surrender his identity and form an alliance with his little Nanyang Governor?

"Questions?"

Mu Jing asked.

"Minghou is afraid that he is mistaken, he is just the acting lord of Nanyang, but he is not qualified to form an alliance with others!" Lei Bo shook his head: "Lord Minghou is afraid that he has found the wrong person today, you should go to Runan!" ”

"So, I'm on the wrong side?"

Mu Jing smiled indifferently and stood up directly: "Since this is the case, then we will leave!" ”

He was about to go out.

"Stay!"

Lei Bo only wanted to suppress Mu Jing's momentum, but he didn't expect Mu Jing to be so neat, he suddenly became a little impatient, and hurriedly stopped Mu Jing.

"Since Captain Lei Du can't be the master, why should I waste my tongue!" Mu Jing turned his head and said to him coldly.

"Although I can't represent General Hou, I can still call the shots in this Xinye's one-third of an acre!"

Lei Bo hurriedly said: "I believe that Ming Hou now also hopes to suppress the expansion of the Guanzhong Army in Nanyang, between us, cooperation is mutually beneficial, if you want to keep Nanyang, you still hope to fight with Ming Hou in a joint battle!" ”

Since Wuyin was broken, he had broken off contact with Runan, and he could only defend Xinye, and he couldn't hold on to the enemy for long, Mu Jing gave a glimmer of life, and he naturally had to seize it.

Otherwise, if the fight really starts, he Xinye won't be able to survive for long.

The most important thing is that now that Mu Jing has broken through Xiangyang, if Mu Jing's soldiers and horses go north and stab him, he will be disabled even if he does not die.

"Captain Leidu, you're wrong!"

Mu Jing said indifferently: "It's right to cooperate with you, but I don't necessarily have to cooperate with you, I can also cooperate with Guan Zhongjun, eat you in one bite, Nanyang is nothing in my heart, now I care more about Jingzhou, if I get Nanjun, why am I afraid of Nanyang!" ”

"Minghou said this, I'm afraid I don't believe it!"

Lei Bo frowned, feeling that Mu Jing was pretending, he looked a little gloomy, and said: "If it weren't for Nanyang, I'm afraid that Minghou wouldn't condescend to be noble, come to my Xinye!" ”

Mu Jing doesn't have a reputation in the world, but with his Ming marquis title, the status of the princes in charge of one side is on a par with his lord Yuan Shu, and coming to Xinye to see him in person can be regarded as condescending.

"I came to Xinye, not because I want to recapture Nanyang, because I don't want the Guanzhong Army to move south, and cooperating with Lei Duwei is my first choice, but if Lei Duwei is not enough to convince me, then I can also cooperate with others!"

Mu Jing smiled faintly: "Even if I don't cooperate with anyone, or even send troops to the north, as long as there is Captain Lei Du to guard Xinye, I think even if they have the intention of going south, the first one to die will definitely not be me!" “

He just wants to tell Lei Bo, I can form an alliance with you, or I can not form an alliance with you, anyway, I don't have much loss, after all, now Lei Bo's troops are in Xinye, defending the northern line of Xiangyang, and the Guanzhong army wants to go south, and it can't bypass Xinye, and Lei Bo's soldiers and horses stationed in Xinye are the most dangerous.

Lei Bo's fists were clenched, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were uneven, but he couldn't refute it, because what Mu Jing said was reasonable, and now his soldiers and horses were on the front line, and if he wanted to die, he would die first.

That's why he got Mu Jing to go north in person, he would be so excited, without saying a word, he came directly to greet him, just to grab a straw to save his life.

"Minghou, since you have gone north, you must also want to unite with us, you should know in your heart that without us standing in the way here, your rear may not be peaceful, although Xiangyang is safe, but Wudang and Shandu are fine!" At this time, Lei Bo's deputy general Chen Lan spoke.

"You're right, that's why I'm heading north!"

Mu Jing didn't deny this, but said very indifferently: "But now I'm a little disappointed, a person who can't even make up his mind, how dare I make an alliance with him!" ”

Lei Bo's face suddenly turned red.

"What does Minghou want?" He asked word for word.

"So now you can call the shots?" Mu Jing asked rhetorically.

"Yes!"

Lei Bo spat out a look.

"That's what you call talking!" Mu Jing said indifferently: "I can provide a horse of grain and grass, send troops to cooperate, I hope you can fight with the Guanzhong army, the Guanzhong army is so rampant, it is just because they think that there are no soldiers and horses in Nanyang can suppress them, only by defeating them can they suppress their expansion, and then they can slowly recover Nanyang!" ”

"It's okay to fight a battle, how many soldiers and horses can you send?" Lei Bo asked.

"A battalion!"

"A battalion?"

"Three thousand soldiers!"

"Too little!"

"It's quite a lot!" Mu Jing said lightly: "I have a battalion of the herding army, you can have one enemy and two enemies, and the three armies of the town are in front of the battle!" “

Lei Bo's face was a little red when he said this, because it was not a lie, but it was true, Lei Bo and the herdsmen had fought countless times, and he deeply knew the combat effectiveness of the herdsmen, and the main force of the first battalion of the herdsmen could fight at least 5,000 soldiers and horses under his command.

The pastoral army sent troops to Xiangyang, he thought that he had a chance, and sent troops from the championship to take Shunyang, but the appearance of a battalion left by the pastoral army, that is, the Guanzhong army, could be regarded as covering up his embarrassment, otherwise he would not be able to attack an empty western part of Nanyang, and he would have become a laughing stock.

"I want 50,000 stone of grain and grass!" Thunder thin price increase.

"Thirty thousand!"

Pastoral scenery price reduction.

After laying Xiangyang, he does have enough grain and grass, even if he doesn't transport it from Hanzhong, he can ensure logistics and surplus grain, but his grain and grass are not blowing strong winds, not as much as you want.

"Yes!" Lei Bo was already satisfied, and he asked, "How do you want to fight?" ”

"How about we take the initiative?" Mu Jing asked.

"Hit Yuyang?" Lei Bo was a little timid, and the Guanzhong army was invincible all the way, driving him south from the north, and finally stopped at Yuyang, but they also placed 3,000 soldiers in Yuyang.

"Don't dare to fight?" Mu Jing sneered.

"Although Yuyang City is not a strong city, my troops are insufficient, and I have been defeated all the way, and there are less than 8,000 soldiers left under my command!" Lei Bo said softly.

This was somewhat unexpected by Mu Jing.

Lei Bo was too ruthless.

Of the tens of thousands of main forces, only 8,000 remained, which was peeled off by the Guanzhong Army layer by layer, and the vitality was damaged.

"My shepherd army can take the initiative to be bait!" Mu Jing thought about it and said softly.

"Oh?"

Lei Bo's last shackle was broken, he wanted to fight a war, but he didn't trust the herdsman, so he had been hesitant to send troops, but now the herdsmen dared to take the initiative to be bait, but they could try it.

"How to fight, I will send someone to contact you!"

Mu Jing admonished him: "Captain Lei, I hope we can cooperate happily this time, as long as we win this battle, at least we can thwart the offensive of the Guanzhong army, and in a short period of time, they will never dare to go south!" ”

"I hope we have a good time working together!"

Lei Bo breathed a sigh of relief.

Mu Jing took the hat and left Lishui Township that day and headed to the west.

After a day and a night of travel, he arrived at Chaoyang County.

The county seat of Chaoyang is now in the hands of the herdsmen.

The pastoral army in the city is the Pingshan Battalion of the Violent Bear Army led by Li Yan, the Pingshan Battalion is responsible for guarding Nanyang, and after the defeat and retreat to Nanxiang, it retreated to Wudang, and took Wudang as the defense to prevent the Guanzhong Army in Nanxiang in the north.

But five days ago, after receiving a summons from Mu Jing, Li Yan led his army to Chaoyang.

Chaoyang County in the melee, lost the town guard of Nanyang Taishou Mansion, it is simply a group of dragons without a leader, and it has been attacked by the pastoral army once before, the pastoral army is in the city, and it does not take half an hour, the people in the city will open the door, and take it down.

"The last general, Li Yan, meet the lord!"

"No need to be polite!"

Mu Jing picked up Li Yan and said to him: "I just came down from Xinye, and I have already negotiated with Lei Bo, next, we will discuss with Lei Bo, and jointly send troops to capture Yuyang, this time, I am ready to let the Pingshan battalion fight, remember that fighting Yuyang is not the goal, the important thing is that in this battle, we will eat the three thousand Guanzhong army and thwart the offensive of his Guanzhong army!" ”

"Will Lei Bo play tricks with us!"

Li Yan didn't believe Lei Bo very much.

"It's normal if it's not a heart, but he should understand the truth that he can't afford to offend us now, so it's normal to make a little small moves, and he won't go back on the big picture!" Mu Jing said: "It's right to guard against him!" ”

He patted Li Yan on the shoulder and said, "I don't have time to continue to spend on this, you are fully responsible for this battle, how to fight, I don't care, I just need a result!" ”

"No!"

Li Yan's eyes were bright, and he bowed to his head.

Mu Jing thought for a while and said, "By the way, there is one more thing, once you successfully defeat Yuyang and eat this part of the Guanzhong Army, you will sell Lei Bo easily!" ”

"Sold?" Li Yanleng paused.

"He and we are all hiding and tucking, in case who knows, it's already clear at a glance!" Mu Jing said with a smile: "I didn't let him get his wish, before the war, I also helped him hide, and if he won the battle, he let everyone in the world know that Lei Bo and Mu Jun cooperated to fight such a big victory!" ”

"The main thing is to let Runan know!"

Li Yan understood in seconds, and his eyes were bright and bright: "The lord is killing two birds with one stone, let the north know that we have formed an alliance, the Guanzhong army must be afraid, let Runan also know that we have formed an alliance, and win this battle, he has made great contributions, but he has hated Yuan Shu's heart!" ”

"Yuan Shu is such a cautious person, just see if he can tolerate me, the enemy who killed his father, and his subordinates to cooperate!"

Mu Jing sneered.

"The lord wants to recruit Lei Bo?"

"Lei Bo is now a lone wolf, he has a chance to become a loyal dog, and we also need a person to guard in Xinye, after all, it is related to the overall situation of Xiangyang!"

The ranch nodded.
