Time back to eight days ago, Xin Er has not yet led the troops out of Minshan, Li Liang has not yet been defeated by him, perseverance, the third time tried to cut the Qin camp, but because of the loss of the way and another failed move, at the same time as the beginning of the gathering of the Hu people who are good at climbing in Wudu County, Ran Seng Nu and Qiu Tai and other Qin generals sent envoys to Yinping County, Cheng Wen and Pu Badger Sun, to report that they were going to attack Qiu Chi Mountain.

The location of Qiuchi Mountain is in the south of Wudu County, not very far from Yinping County.

In the afternoon of the next day, Pu Badger Sun received this message.

After seeing it, the badger Sun Lan summoned the generals under the tent and said to them: "The ranger and Ning Shuo have come to the house, saying that his two troops will attack Qiuchi Mountain in ten days at the latest. When Meng Gonglin led his troops to Hedong County, he ordered us to fight a quick battle, and asked us to defeat the entire territory of Wudu and Yinping as soon as possible, so as not to make Longxi County unable to withstand the reinforcements of Longzhou, resulting in the abandonment of our army's previous achievements.

"A few days ago, I received a military report from General Shi, General Lu, General Yao and other departments of Longxi County, saying that Guyin's Longbing soldiers had arrived in Wushi County, and they were personally led by Xin Er, the general of Dingxi's conquest, and I thought that he would soon launch an offensive against Longxi County. Xin Youzhu can fight well, and the soldiers he leads are the first-class elite of Dingxi, Taima, Peony Cavalry, etc., and General Shi and others will face great pressure.

"The rangers, Ning Shuo has been prepared to attack the mountain, our department has also been prepared to attack Yinping County, in my opinion, it is better for our department to start attacking the city tomorrow, and strive to capture Yinping County in the shortest possible time, and then it is good to return to help Longxi, why do you wait?"

In addition to his headquarters, the Qin soldiers who attacked Yinping County from Pu Badger Sun had two other divisions, one was the Qiang pawn led by the general of the right army, Tong Jiliang, and the other was the Tiefu Xiongnu warriors led by Tiefu Da, Zhao Xing, the general of Beizhonglang, and Wu Luokui, the general of Huwei.

Tonghuliang, Zhao Xing, and Wu Luokui had no objections.

Because Qu Yuanguang claimed to be familiar with the character and temper of Koji Qiu, Beigong Yue, etc., he and his younger brother Nancheng were also in the army of Pu Badger Sun.

When he heard Xin Er's name, Yuan Guang's eyes were dark, and he couldn't help but panic in his heart, but he had seen Xin Er's constant victory with his own eyes, and Xin Er's methods of dealing with political enemies, and he was already deeply afraid of Xin Er.

And Qu Yuanguang cheered himself up, thinking in his heart: "Lao Tzu is now a dragon swimming in the sea, and the phoenix dances for nine days, and now it is not what it used to be!" Xin Agua doesn't have three heads and six arms, it's not terrible! ”

Tongho Liang is the chief of the Qiang people with the hooves, according to the customs of the Qiang people, with loose hair and a big white and sharp horn.

He parted his legs, sat on the Hu sit, pressed one hand on his knee, crossed his waist with the other, looked at Zhao Xing and Wu Luokui opposite, and said with a big grin: "When attacking Xiangwu County in the past, Zhao Lang and the Wu generals fought a lot with the Long soldiers, and the soldiers of your department know the combat power of the Long soldiers better than the soldiers of our department, and the siege of the city tomorrow ,......" turned to Pu Badger Sun and said, "The last general suggested that Zhao Lang and the Wu generals should be the vanguard of the siege, and first try to play a dozen to see the virtual reality in the city, and then make a plan for a large-scale attack." ”

Pu Badger Sun remembered the explanation that Meng Lang gave him privately before leaving, "try to take the opportunity of attacking the city as much as possible and consume more Tiefu Huns", and he did not allow this suggestion of Tonghu Liang, but he did not ask Zhao Xing and Wu Luokui in an inquiring tone, and said: "What is the opinion of General Zhao Lang and General Wu?" Would you like to? ”

Wu Luokui was very positive, and immediately expressed his position, saying: "That's true! Compared with the general and the general's troops, it is true that our department and the Long soldiers fought more, and they are more familiar with the Long soldiers than the general and the general's department, and tomorrow will attack the city, of course, our department should go first! ”

Pu Badger Sun asked Zhao Xing and said, "What does Zhao Lang think?" ”

Zhao Xing scolded Wu Luokui in his heart, and thought viciously: "Traitor! It is not enough to betray my father, but also to betray my Tiefu people! One day, don't let Lao Tzu find the opportunity, you have to cut you with a thousand knives, peel your skin for a feast, and take your head to make a wine vessel! With a respectful smile on his face, he replied cheerfully, "What Wu Luokui said is what I thought!" Tomorrow the siege of the city, the last general, please be the vanguard! ”

Pu Badger Sun Department and Tongho Liang Department are in one place, there are about seven or eight thousand people, Zhao Xing, Wu Luo Kui Department after the consumption of the Xiangwu siege battle, now there are only more than two thousand points left, because, even if Pu Badger Sun guessed that Zhao Xing was not careful, but he was not afraid of his grievances, so he nodded with satisfaction, stroked his beard and said: "General Zhao Lang and General Wu volunteered, please be the vanguard, and the courage is commendable." When the Yin Ping is laid, I will ask for credit for the two generals, and show the loyalty of the two generals to the king and my Great Qin. As long as it is a person who has made meritorious contributions to the country, the king has always been stingy in rewarding, and there will definitely be a rich reward for the two generals! ”

Wu Luokui smacked his face and said: "Other rewards, the last general doesn't dare to think about it, just begging the king to give a sect girl and the last general just like Zhao Lang general, and the last general will be satisfied!" ”

All those who betray the Lord and seek glory are usually hated, and most of them can only go one way to the dark, and there is basically no turning back, Wu Luokui has betrayed Zhao Yanli and thrown himself under Meng Lang's hands, he knows that from now on, he can only save his life by being Pu Qin's lackey, and on this basis, he will obtain more glory and wealth, so he knows that attacking Yinping County first will inevitably cause huge casualties to the few remaining Tiefu soldiers again, and he still doesn't care about the lives of his fellow clans.

If he hopes to get a daughter of Pu Qin as a wife, it is Wu Luokui who hopes to change his identity as a foreign race of Tiefu Xiongnu because of this, so that he can truly integrate into Pu Qin's "countryman" group.

Pu Badger Sun smiled: "As long as the general can make great achievements, why is it difficult?" ”

And Qu Yuanguang sighed.

Pu Badger Sun asked, "Why is the governor sighing?" ”

And Qu Yuanguang was now removed by Pu Qin and awarded the military position of a cavalry general, and Meng Lang divided two hundred cavalry with him. Yuan Guang replied: "What General Wu is begging for, and what Xiaohu is longing for!" Only when Xiaohu voted for my Great Qin that night, he was in a hurry, and he failed to bring thousands of troops loyal to Xiaohu, although Meng Gong rewarded Xiaohu with two hundred warriors of my Great Qin, but they were all cavalry, and I am afraid that they will not be able to make great contributions in this siege battle. Thinking of this, the last general did not feel lost, because he couldn't help himself, and sighed. ”

"Thousands of steps loyal to Xiaohu" Yunyun, this is Qu Yuanguang bragging. He was indeed in charge of some of the herdsmen in the canal department in his early years, but he was not the eldest son in the canal department, and when it came to his status in the department, he was not as good as his brother Pingluo. His bragging was nothing more than to raise his own worth, so that he could get Pu Qin's attention.

Zhao Xingxin said: "Two pups! ”

When the Tiefu Xiongnu was in Shuofang in the past, strictly speaking, the two sides were not only not allies, but also enemies, but at this moment, Zhao Xing had the same hatred as Dingxi.

He could not hold back his anger, for fear of revealing it, so he turned his eyes out of the tent and looked at the sky and the military flag erected in front of it.

Pu Badger Sun smiled and Qu Yuanguang said: "Although the commander's troops don't need to attack the city, didn't the governor say that you know Kojiqiu and Beigong Yue?" If I can make suggestions in this battle, so that I can know the other, this is not inferior to the battle achievements, and I can not know if I am suitable for the daughter of the sect? ”

Yuanguang was happy on his face, and said sycophantly: "When Xiaohu was a young man, he admired the humanistic romance of my Daqin Shangbang, abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, after coming to my Daqin, Meng Gong, generals and other princes, all of them are heroes of the world,—— Meng Gonggu has been a hero, but after all, he is a Tang man, slightly lacking in martial arts, but the general is not, both civil and military, really heroic and extraordinary, on the other hand, Xiaohu, ugly appearance, vulgar manners, do not hide from the general, every time he meets the general, see the general's demeanor, Xiaohu is very ashamed of himself. If there is really a day when King Meng will not give up and make Xiaohu match the daughter of the sect, that Xiaohu, that Xiaohu, oh, that Xiaohu is willing to die, general! ”

Yuan Guang has been studying with Yin Shi for a few years, and when he is flattered, he is much stronger than Wu Luokui, a rough man.

Pu Badger Sun was slapped up and down by his sycophant, and said with a smile: "You can't die, you're going to die, won't the daughter of your sect be cheaper than your younger brother, are you happy?" ”

Nan Cheng rarely saw Yuan Guang's low-level appearance, a little unbearable, already sitting on pins and needles, suddenly heard Pu Badger Sun talk about him, his face suddenly turned red, and he said eating: "Where, where ......"

Pu Badger Sun asked, "Where what?" ”

Nan Cheng said: "Where is the turn to get the villain!" There is also a brother on top of the villain. ”

According to the customs of the Hu people, after the death of one of the brothers, the remaining brothers, the eldest usually marries the wife of the deceased brother. In other words, if Yuanguang is dead, there is a high probability that his wife should be succeeded by him and Nancheng's brother Pingluo.

Yuan Guang was furious, and said in his heart: "This fool! Can't you hear that Pu Badger Sun is joking? It's really like Lao Tzu is dead! But it was not good to get angry at the man in front of Pu Badger Sun, so he had to swallow his anger.

Pu Badger Sun laughed and said, "Your two brothers, one clever and the other honest, are they really born from one father?" ”

Yuan Guang smiled and said: "Not only the same father, but also a mother." If it's fake! ”

After teasing Yuanguang, Pu Badger Sun stopped continuing the topic, changed the conversation, and said: "Yuanguang, you reminded me yesterday that Yin Luo of Hanzhong County and Zhang Jingwei of Zitong County may send troops to aid Yin Ping. I thought about it, and your concerns are not unreasonable. I have sent scouts this morning to inquire to the east. If it is true that Yin Luo and Zhang Jingwei sent troops to help Kojiqiu, who do you think they will take as their generals, and how many soldiers and horses can they send? ”

Yuan Guang had already considered these two questions clearly, and waited for Pu Badger Sun to ask him, so he immediately shook his spirits and replied: "The generals under the account of Yin Luo and Zhang Jingwei are headed by Yan Xi and Wang Shuwang. Wang Shuwang is already in Yinping County, and nine times out of ten, they will send Yan Jian as the main general of the reinforcements. Hanzhong and Zitong are half a county, with a total of more than 5,000 soldiers and horses, and there are already 1,000 people led by Wang Shuwang to aid Xiangwu County, and Zhang Jingwei and Yin Luo can use mobile troops in addition to the needs of the town, at most they can make up 1,000 people. ”

"Yan Raid, I know his name a little, and he is also a member of Dingxi's generals, but if he can only lead a thousand soldiers, he is not worried."

And Qu Yuanguang also thinks so, he is in a hurry to make a great achievement, so that he can gain a firm foothold in Puqin, so he asked Ying and said: "Xiaohu dares to borrow 500 troops from the general, and join Xiaohu's headquarters, leave the camp tomorrow, and set up a village on the way to Hanzhong to Yinping, so as to destroy this enemy aid for the general!" ”

Pu Badger Sun groaned and said, "You? ”

Yuan Guang said: "Yan Xi is Xin Agua's general, and the villain is very familiar with him. This person is a bit brave, but he has no brains, and he is a reckless man. Xiaohu is confident that he can outwit him! Xiao Hu is willing to set up a military order, if he can't win, Xiao Hu will come to see the general! ”

Pu Badger Sun asked for the opinion of Tonghu Liang and asked, "General Tongho, what do you think?" ”

Among the many generals of Pu Qin, Tonghuliang is as famous as Shi Shou, the former army general of Shouyang County, but unlike Shi Shou, who is famous for his harsh management of the army, he governs the army with leniency, so as to move people's hearts, but he is known for his cunning.

Tonghuliang's height is not tall, and Qu Yuanguang is about the same, he looked at Qu Yuanguang a few times, and said in his heart: "This miscellaneous Hu killed his uncle in order to vote for my Daqin, it can be described as a black hand, and he can take low and be small, and his words are convenient, how long has this been in the Pugong Army?" It coaxed the dangong to be happy, and it can be called cunning. At the same time, he is familiar with Yan Raid and his people, if Yin Luo and Zhang Jingwei really send Yan Raid to lead troops to aid Kojiqiu, he will go to intercept it, but he is a foreign general, but he cannot monopolize the power of blocking the enemy. ”

So, Tong Huliang said, "The last general thinks that although the general is familiar with the enemy's situation, after all, he has only just set things right, but he is not very familiar with the soldiers of our army. ”

Pu Badger Sun asked, "Who should I choose as the main general?" Do you have a recommendation from the general? ”

Tonghuliang said: "The last general's brother Haoping, bravely crowned the three armies, and attacked them with hostility, and he must be captured." ”

Tonghuliang's brother died early, leaving behind a son, named Haoping, who is only in his early twenties this year, but he was born brave, agile and good, and was very famous in Puqin's army.

Pu Badger Sun said to Qu Yuanguang: "Then Haoping will be the general, and the governor will be biased." With the soldiers of the Haoping Department as the main force, I don't need to borrow troops and generals, the generals can only take your headquarters soldiers and horses to go with Haoping to intercept the enemy reinforcements in Hanzhong. ”

And Qu Yuanguang held back his disappointment and replied respectfully: "Yes!" He said flatteringly to Pu Badger Sun and Tongho Liang, "General, General Tongho, please rest assured, Xiaohu will do his best to Sasuke and Captain Tongho." ”

Having decided to intercept possible reinforcements from Hanzhong, Pu Badgersun began to make specific arrangements for tomorrow's siege.

Yinping County is located on the north bank of Baishui, in the north of the city, there is no need to arrange siege troops, just send some cavalry to cruise.

Pu Badger Sun chose the direction of the main attack to the south of the city, and led the main force to attack this section of the city wall; ordered the Tonghoof Liang Department to attack the west of the city; Ordered Zhao Xing and Wu Luokui to attack the east of the city. In the first two days, the attack was mainly carried out by Zhao Xing and Wu Luokui.

The two departments of Tongho Haoping and Qu Yuanguang also left the camp tomorrow and went to the east to set up a village.

The arrangements are in place, and the generals take their own orders.

The next day, Haoping and Yuanguang went east, and Pu Badger Sun and other troops besieged the city on three sides, and the onslaught on Yinping County began.
