In the city of Dianchi Lake.

Yonghong suddenly felt a trace of cold wind blowing, making him involuntarily tighten the robe on his body, he put down the book in his hand, looked up at the sky, and asked himself a little to himself: "I don't know if Yonghai will have time to rescue?" ”

The shepherd's front suddenly went straight to the Qiqi, which was unexpected.

He didn't want to reinforce the Mu Qi, so that Zhu Bao and the Mu army of the Mu Qi would share life and death first, it was a good thing for him, even if the Mu Army could win this battle, the consumption would inevitably be very large.

Moreover, it is very irrational to divide troops to the east.

Once the road is blocked halfway, it is likely to go back and be completely annihilated.

But Zhu Bao sent a messenger to ask for help, and the matter has come to this point, no matter what, first of all, it must not chill people's hearts, otherwise Gao Min of Yue Wan will be out of the alliance first, and Meng Shu will also be wary of him.

"The head of the family, report urgently!" A Yong soldier rushed in.

"Pass it on!"

"Yes!"

The Yong's own soldiers handed over the urgent report in their hands.

"How is that possible?"

Yonghong glanced at it, and his pupils suddenly became cold, and his face was still a little pale.

The report was to tell him that a few days earlier, the army had been defeated.

And it failed miserably.

And Lancheng was almost slaughtered, Zhu Bao was killed in battle, he was young and strong, and he was slaughtered countless times, and the real blood flowed like a river, and the corpses were piled up like a mountain.

"Rubbish!"

Yonghong gritted his teeth and shouted: "Zhu Bao, this waste, it's useless, you have been in the city for more than half a month, and you were destroyed and killed in less than a few days, and let me go to reinforce you, a big waste!" ”

After being irritable, he thought of another question, and asked the family soldiers kneeling below: "This news should have reached Dianchi five days ago, why is it so late?" ”

Now he is a little worried, worried that the reinforcements he sent out should not be at this time, but it is difficult to guarantee that the herdsman army will not take the initiative to attack, if it is an ambush, then it will be a big problem.

"Report to the head of the family, after the shepherd army slaughtered Helan, he sent soldiers and horses to seal the passage in and out everywhere, and our people can't come back, this is still the news that our family cultivated ranger scouts, who crossed the mountains and crossed the mountains, and brought back!"

"Damn it!"

Yonghong stood up and paced back and forth: "Come on!" ”

"In!"

A middle-aged man walked in and asked, "Lord Taishou, do you have any orders?" ”

This is one of the three main books of Yizhou County, the only one from an ordinary poor family, but he is deeply valued by Yonghong, and his name is He Yu.

"Where is Yongtong marching now?"

Yonghong asked.

"I sent the news yesterday, it seems that I am about to enter the city, and I am about to arrive in Yelang City!"

"Immediately send someone to expedite eight hundred miles and summon them back!"

"Now?"

"It's now!"

"Taishou-sama, what happened?" He Yu asked.

"See for yourself!"

Yonghong handed the report in his hand to He Yu, although He Yu was the chief bookkeeper of the Taishou Mansion, he was more responsible for being one of his advisers.

He Yu looked at the report carefully, and after half a sound, he said: "Lord Taishou, now to answer, I'm afraid it's too late, Lord Yongtong has probably already encountered an ambush, whether he can escape, look at his own creation, we have to do it first, it should be to complete the defense of Yizhou County, Lord Taishou should discuss it with the barbarian king, the barbarian army must come out!" ”

"You're right, I'm a little messed up!"

Yonghong calmed down, nodded, and said: "But Yongtong can't ignore it, you personally lead 5,000 troops, go east to respond, if you can, you can respond, if you can't, you will return immediately!" ”

"No!"

He Yu nodded in agreement.

After He Yu left, Yonghong thought quietly a lot in the main hall, and after half a ring, he asked people to prepare horses, with more than 300 people in the guard camp, left Dianchi City, and went straight to the west.

On an unnamed mountain, the barbarians were encamped.

"Wang, Yonghong is here!"

"Yonghong?"

Meng Shu was young, burly and strong, his bronze bell-like eyes brushed with a touch of essence, and said, "Please let him in!" “

"Yes!"

A barbarian warrior invited Yonghong in.

"What are you going to do?" Meng Shu didn't speak so literally, he was very direct, and said: "Meng Jie has already led the army to attack the pastoral army, the pastoral army is not much, but the battle and retreat, unless I increase the troops, otherwise I can't take it for a while!" ”

"That's not it!"

Yonghong shook his head: "I'm going to negotiate first, so let Meng Jie withdraw his troops, and withdraw it!" ”

"Negotiations?"

"Originally, I wanted to negotiate with them because I wanted to fight, just like I did with Liu Yan back then, I subdued them first, and then put forward conditions, which will inevitably go a lot smoother, and let them see who is in charge here!"

Yonghong said: "But not now! ”

"Why?"

Yonghong handed a report in his hand to Meng Shu: "This is a report from the Qiqi!" ”

"Zhu Bao was destroyed?"

Meng Xu's eyes widened a little, and he couldn't believe it: "This turtle-like person was wiped out by the herdsman so easily, is the herdsman really so powerful?" ”

"The shepherd army can be famous in the Central Plains, and it must not be underestimated!"

Yonghong said in a low voice: "And they are killing in Jilan City, just to deter us, if we dare to fight with them again, I'm afraid Dianchi City will be the next Helan City!" ”

"What are you afraid of!" Meng Shu said coldly: "We barbarians have been afraid of someone, it's a big deal that we escaped into the 100,000 mountains, I don't believe that they dare to chase after you!" ”

"If it was before, I didn't believe that anyone could break through Helan City, not to mention Zhu Bao's strength, the terrain of Qiqi, you know, even if it is not as dangerous as 100,000 mountains, but in a few days, they broke through Qiqi and entered Jilan!"

Yonghong pinched the bridge of his nose and said: "The ferocity of Mu Longtu, I feel it more or less, this is not Liu Yan, it is not easy to deal with, it is too tough, I can't say that this person dares to bloody the four counties of Nanzhong!" ”

"How dare he?" Meng was a little skeptical.

"Others don't dare to say it, this person is so lethal, and he has a male soldier in his hand, he may not dare!" Yonghong smiled bitterly.

"And what do you want us to do?"

"Show weakness first!"

Yonghong said: "You withdraw the soldiers and horses, I will personally go north, talk to them, if you can negotiate peace, this is the best, even if you suffer a loss, I don't want to fight with the herdsman, but once the negotiation is not close, it can only fight against the water, when the time comes, the warriors of the barbarians, I am afraid that they will have to pour out of the nest to be able to stop!" ”

"The warriors in my tribe who can fight well are all here, the tribes of the thirty-six caves are actually not united, I can only recruit another 20,000 warriors at most, and make up 50,000 warriors!"

Meng Shu said.

The entire barbarian race is naturally more than 50,000 young and strong.

Barbarian is actually not a race, it is a pronoun, 100,000 mountains, countless tribes, at least a million people, 36 caves is just a short name, that is, the most representative 36 tribes, a tribe, representing a race.

Many years ago, these people were called the Jiuli tribe, and later took root in the 100,000 mountains, and they were incompatible with the people of the Central Plains, and gradually formed tribes one after another, and then they were called barbarians by the Central Plains, and the barbarians became the code names of all of them.

Barbarians include the White Barbarians, the Yi Tribes, and the Miao Tribes...... And so on.

Although Meng won the title of the king of the tribe, but he sat in the position of the barbarian king, it was not a long time, thirty-six holes, there are not a few people who disobey him, he prefers to live out of the mountains, but there are still some tribes who are willing to stay in the mountains.

"I hope that a peace can be negotiated smoothly!"

Yonghong was worried.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

On the river surface of Hanyang.

The breeze was blowing, facing the light of the setting sun, Mu Jing was drinking tea and reading a book, in fact, leaving Jiangzhou was also a beautiful thing, at least there were not so many cumbersome things to make trouble for him.

As the lord of the Minghou Mansion, there are too many things to be busy on weekdays, as long as he sits in the Zhaoming Pavilion, there is basically no free time, and after he comes out, unless there are some things that are really undecidable, he will be sent all the way to make a decision.

Other things basically won't bother him, but let him relax, read books, fish, and don't live too comfortably these days.

"Lord, Gan Ning is back!"

"So fast?"

Mu Jing was a little surprised, he put down the book, looked up, and only saw one after another warships, approaching his double-toothed warship.

"The last general, Gan Ning, failed to succeed in the first battle, please punish the lord!"

Gan Ning jumped up, bowed his head, and knelt down to confess.

"What do you mean?"

Mu Jing squinted.

"Failed to ambush its main force!" Gan Ning replied.

"Tell me more!"

"No!"

Gan Ning said this ambush battle in detail before and after, and then said: "It's my lack of experience, I didn't think in advance, they will divide the troops, take the lead in mobilizing the troops, but arouse their vigilance, although the ambush in the first battle, enough to defeat their 3,000 soldiers and horses, but their main force escaped a catastrophe, escaped into the mountains and forests, we are naval soldiers, not good at mountain warfare, dare not easily pursue, so we can only let them leave!" ”

"Zhuge , who is the Yizhou County Army leading the reinforcements this time?" Mu Jing asked.

"Yongtong!"

Zhuge flipped through the information and said: "Jing Wusi's evaluation of it, he is very good at defense, cautious and cautious, familiar with the art of war, and is the first wise general under the command of Yizhou County Shou Yonghong!" ”

"It's kind of interesting!"

The corners of Mu Jing's mouth raised slightly.

After 1,800 years in the history books, in fact, the names will be erased, this is an extremely brilliant era, the heroes rise together, the generals are like clouds, the strategists are like rain, and the talents are like bamboo shoots after the heavy rain, which have emerged.

A person should not be despised because he no longer has a name in history.

"Let Jing Wusi focus on opening a file, investigate this person, know yourself and your opponent, and be invincible!"

"No!"

"Gan Ning, in the case of love, there is forgiveness, but military law is like a mountain, and it must not be violated!" Mu Jing said: "If you fail to complete the task in this battle, you will naturally be punished, and you will be punished with thirty military sticks and a fine of one year to set an example!" ”

"Yes!"

Gan Ning nodded heavily.

In this battle, he was a little dying, and he wanted to make a name for himself and correct his ability, but after all, he was too impatient, and he missed the opportunity instead.

"Gan Ning, I value you very much, but you must first understand that as a general, on the battlefield, the most taboo thing is to be anxious!" Mu Jing saw a touch of frustration on Gan Ning's body at this time, and comforted him, this is a general, what is missing is only experience, he pulls out the seedlings to help him, and he has to pay a price, but he can afford this price, he firmly believes that Gan Ning can become a talent: "If you want to become a famous general, you must first understand on the battlefield that the result of losing, the result of winning, the result of losing, the result of winning, can afford to lose, and you can only be regarded as a general!" ”

"The last will be taught!"

Gan Ning was like an initiation, and the spiritual platform suddenly became clear, and looking at Mu Jing's eyes, there was also a touch of persistent fanaticism.

No one has ever believed in themselves so much.

This is the first one.

"Go get the punishment!"

"No!"

Gan Ning willingly went to receive the punishment, thirty military sticks, for many people, it is a heavy punishment, but for Gan Ning, it is nothing, and the executioner will not fight to death, after all, this is the main general, as for the fine for one year, it is even more trivial.

…………………………………………

The next day, early in the morning.

"Lord, the vanguard army under the command of Sima has entered Hanyang!"

"It's coming so fast, I should be worried that I'm going to the battlefield!" Mu Jing smiled: "So the pioneer is divided, first come to stare at me, I promise, the person who came is Chen Dao, and this guy still dares to be presumptuous in front of me!" ”

Chen Zhi is his confidant.

From the beginning of the establishment of the Jingping Battalion, until now, it refers to where to fight, and it is also one of the few people in the army who is not afraid of Mujing's authority, in front of Mujing, he will always insist, right is right, this is an old-fashioned person.

"Xi Sima is also worried about the danger of the main public!"

Said that the guy, that guy came, Chen came on horseback, stopped on the dock, got off the boat, met Mu Jing, and said: "Xi Sima said, order me, not leave the lord's side an inch!" ”

"Do you listen to mine or to him?" Mu Jing squinted.

"The lord said, the county officials are not as good as the current management, the drama Sima is the head of the Beiwu Hall, weighing the seven armies and seven battalions, it is my superiority, I am naturally listening to the drama Sima!" Chen Zhi said firmly.

"I'm still his boss, I didn't see that guy listening to me!"

Mu Jing was speechless with anger.

"Lord, don't worry, I will occupy your position, you should not see me, it will not affect the mood of the lord!" Chen Zhi consciously stood beside him.

"Okay, Chen Zhi, I remember you!"

Mu Jing glanced at Chen Shuzhi fiercely, it was time for him to put on some small shoes.

"Lord, the battle on the front line is over, the barbarian army has given up the siege of the mountain and withdrawn from the border of Hanyang, and the first and second battalions of the Dongzhou Army have retreated to Lingsu Mountain!" In the afternoon, the messenger of Jingwu Division sent news.

Lingsu Mountain is a mountain thirty miles away from Hanyang, and it is also the battlefield of the barbarian army and the Dongzhou army.

The main force of the Dongzhou Army was transferred eastward, but the first battalion and the second battalion were left.

"The barbarians have withdrawn?"

Mu Jing squinted: "It seems that they know the result of the battle of Qiqi!" ”

"But why did they withdraw their troops?" Zhuge Xuan asked.

"I don't know!"

Mu Jing shook his head: "Retreating without a fight, it's not like the style of the barbarians!" ”

"My lord, there's another news!" The envoy of Jingwu Si arched his hand and said: "Yizhou is too shou Yonghong, I want to negotiate with the lord, and I personally sent an invitation to invite the lord to taste the county for a while!" ”

"Negotiations?"

The corners of Mu Jing's mouth raised a touch of playfulness: "Feelings, this Yonghong wants to talk to me, is he really confident, can he convince me to retire?" ”
