Meng Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Xu.

The crescent moon was stunned, and she didn't know how to speak for a while.

"If the Jiang clan is imprisoned and there is no Gu An to save them, the king, you can naturally occupy the land of Linhe County. Linhe, as a military important place for the border defense of the Great Wei Dynasty, will not sit idly by today. At that time, you can use Jiang Taigong Jiang Shan and Linhe as a threat, and ask the Son of Heaven to hand over half of the jurisdiction of Guangzhou to you, expand the territory of Wuhu, and open up the trade ports between Wuhu and Cangwu, Hepu and Gaoliang. Ning Nan took Meng Disaster's words and relieved the siege of the crescent moon.

Meng Disaster set his eyes on him, and said sarcastically: "The Marquis of Huaiyin has made a good plan for Lone, aren't you afraid that this matter will fail, and when it is revealed in the future, the people of Great Wei will scold you for being a traitor?" ”

"As the king said... This matter will only be revealed if it fails, but my father and I are victorious, so the king has nothing to worry about. Besides, my bad reputation in Great Wei has been ingrained in the hearts of the people, and I am not afraid of others saying that I am a traitor. ”

His words had the meaning of breaking the boat, and directly showed Meng Disaster that he was not afraid at all, and he was determined to complete this deal.

Meng Disaster raised his eyebrows and clenched his fist at him and said: "Since the Marquis of Huaiyin is so confident, then Lone is not willing to be the villain who only promises, so tonight's agreement will be reached, and three days later, Lone will naturally lead the eight thousand troops of Wuhu to rush to Linhe from the shortcut to Linhe according to Master Chen's plan and make peace with the Marquis." ”

After saying this, Meng Disaster got up, and after bowing to Ning Nan for a while, he turned around and walked towards the door of the tent.

There was no one in the tent to stop him, and Lu Xun watched Meng Disaster go out, still holding his breath in his heart.

It wasn't until this rude man in a skin swaggered out of the camp tent of the Jing Inspector and walked away that Lu Xun dared to speak: "Lord, Meng Disaster really agreed so happily, will there be fraud?" ”

"He came to make a deal with me, tonight's incident is just that he wants to have one more chip in his hand to act like that, since he can't help me, he can't ruin this deal in person, and then return to Wuhu with eight thousand soldiers empty-handed to let those tribal leaders see the jokes, right?" Ning Nan said disdainfully.

Lu Xun sighed, shook his head and said: "Look at this guy's face, it was obvious that he handed over the letter to invite the lord to see you, but afterwards, everything was arranged by the lord, which made you suffer a lot of coldness... We treat him as a guest, and he is so clever and soft-spoken, and he has to be so calculating and looking down on others, he is really a person who can't be on the stage. ”

"What you're talking about... I don't blame Meng for looking down on me. If you think about it, you will know that it must have been the one who said a lot of things about me in front of Meng Disaster. I was secretly sent to Guangzhou by my father without me, and later went to Wuhu to maneuver among the major tribes, and finally persuaded Meng Disaster to take the initiative to connect with me, which he actually knew very well. He didn't say a word about Zeng Yu, and on the surface he seemed to take the initiative to deliver a letter to me, but in fact, he felt in his heart that if it wasn't for Zeng Yu's persuasion, he wouldn't have bothered to talk to me at all. That's when I got the letter of request after the letter of invitation. ”

"Say it's a request... In fact, it is your order to the lord, and your subordinates look down on this kind of person the most. The play is too lazy to do the whole thing, and he is still suspicious and suspicious, and he talks nonsense. Although he listened to Ning Nan's comfort, Lu Xun was not relieved, and he reported his grievances for his master.

Ning Nan bent the corners of his lips slightly, and said in a gentle tone: "Okay, don't complain here, go down and prepare." An hour later, he set off for Linhe. The partridge, the commander of the Chinese and North Korean fine works, must be guarded. ”

Lu Xun received the order and led the crescent moon standing on the side towards the outside of the camp.

Let's say that after Ning Nan gave the order, he and Lu Xun led a group of 2,000 people to escort the partridge to return to Linhe in the starry night.

At noon the next day, he went from the mountain trail to the outskirts of the county, and detained the partridge in the suburban village, and after confirming that it was correct, he immediately ordered someone to imitate the partridge's notes and repair a book, and sent someone to quietly deliver it to the county town anonymously.

Gu An did not return for many days, and the county land, as Ning Nan worried, piled up defensive guards. Tong Wu, the governor of the county, personally went to the periphery of the county to hold on, and did not let anyone enter and leave at will.

Ning Nan and Lu Xun went to the suburbs to rest in the mountains and forests, divided half of the elite soldiers to pretend to be the commander of Linhe County, and lit fires with the four city gates of the border cities of the county.

The soldiers of the county town below will be in chaos, and they heard that the east gate and the west gate suddenly burst into flames, the fire is as fast as a shuttle arrow, and the city gate is full of smoke, which makes the alarm bell of the small city on the side line loud. Some soldiers hurriedly went up to the city wall and reported to Tong Wu. At this time, there was a fire in the city, and the fire at the city gate had already affected the fish in the pond. In the border city, the people fled to each other, trampled on the left and right, and suffered countless casualties. The city gate could not be guarded, and Lu Xun took half of the guards disguised as county commanders to take advantage of the chaos to sneak into the city and run all the way to the west of the court.

At this time, the partridge letter was conveyed to the Chinese and Korean forces in the administrative office, and the seven forces in the southeast, northwest, and northwest of the county rose up, and the number of troops was not less than 4,000.

There was a great chaos in the city, and Tong Wu had no choice but to return to the governance office, and hurried to the palace of the Marquis of Jiang to report the matter.

Jiang Shan quickly gathered troops and went out of the town to suppress seven turbulent trends, but unexpectedly, there were four fires in the county, and the people were frightened, and they rushed to the city gate with their belongings.

The county defense army and the county unified army stationed at the county gates could not suppress the panicked people, and the city gates were broken. As a result, Chiang's army was unable to clear out the rebellious soldiers, and the situation became more and more serious.

However, the turmoil in the city was not resolved, and Guiyang suddenly sent an urgent message, asking the Hou Jiang Gong of Guannei to send troops for first aid.

The private army in Guiyang County flourished, disturbing the security of the county, and the outskirts of the city gathered a large army and rushed towards Linhe in one fell swoop, just to meet the two thousand troops of Jiang Chan, the grandson of Jiang Shan.

The two armies confronted each other at the bottom of the Changlu Mountain Gorge. The terrain here is relatively gentle, easy to attack and difficult to defend.

The person who led Guiyang's private soldiers was Zeng Yu, who went to Wuhu to persuade him.

Jiang Chan didn't know this person, so he shouted and asked, "Who is coming?" But Guiyang reinforcements? ”

Zeng Yu scolded: "Reinforcements, your grandfather, Jiang Chan!" Lao Tzu is the general of the Wuhu King Meng Disaster! Today is to take your dog's life! ”

As he was talking, he didn't wait for Jiang Chan to answer, he carried an iron gun in his hand and a sword at his waist, leading dozens of cavalry forward and attacking Jiang Chan. That Jiang Chan quickly drew his knife and took the shield, took Zeng Yu directly, and stabbed him with a spear between the two clicks. Zeng Yu was in distress, and he was horrified, and secretly scolded for underestimating this Jiang Chan, so he took the road and left, killed his cavalry, and cut off a person's head.

When Jiang Chan saw that his brother saw the blood, he was immediately furious, and shouted: "Brothers! Kill me!! ”

"Kill!!" The roar of the two thousand troops behind them arrived, alarming the mountains and gorges, and the birds fled in all directions.

The two armies fought each other since the evening, clashing back and forth, killing until night, and the Changlu Mountain Gorge was a river of blood. To say that the strength of Zeng Yu's leading army is not as good as Jiang Chan, two times have passed, and most of Guiyang's Ning Zheng's private soldiers have been killed and wounded. He fought with his wounds and quickly gained the upper hand.

Just as the two armies were shouting and killing each other, another army crashed out from the valley path on the west side and rushed straight towards Jiang Chan. Jiang Chan and Zeng Yu fought, although they had the upper hand, but also lost two hundred good generals, and saw another army coming from the west, and the scale was large, and immediately shocked.

Zeng Yu saw that the reinforcements had arrived, and immediately laughed and said, "Jiang Chan is a good grandson! Tonight I will take your head! ”

He shouted, raised his gun, and went straight to Jiang Chan. Zen couldn't resist the enemy, lay down on his waist, dragged the reins of the horse around a circle, did not dodge, was stabbed in the back, the pain was unbearable, and immediately fled back to the army.

He was in close pursuit with a horse.

Two armies against one army, the casualties are visible to the naked eye.

Jiang Chan suffered a big loss, only 1,200 soldiers remained, seeing that the situation was not good, he was afraid that the enemy could not be more than two private armies, and immediately led his troops around the canyon to find a place to hide from defense.

However, it is said that Jiang Chan of Changlu Mountain is stubbornly guarding the path from Guiyang to Linhe Canyon, and he is forced everywhere and gradually becomes the upper hand; The situation in Linghe County is also grim and unstoppable.

The Chinese and Korean dynasties in the city made a small rebellion, and Jiang Shan led all his three sons and seven grandchildren to fight, but he still couldn't stop this evil development.

There was chaos in the county, and there was an urgent report outside the county. It is only said that the Wuhu King Meng Disaster did not know when he led an army of 8,000 to directly press the small city on the border.

The soldiers were approaching the city, and Tong Wu was in a dilemma for a while, impatient and uneasy. Jiang Shan calmly made a strategy and instructed Tong Wu to lead 5,000 troops to concentrate on resisting foreign enemies.

Tong Wu received the order, and immediately mobilized 2,000 Jiang soldiers and 3,000 county defense and county commanders to go straight to the county gate.

The two armies fought, and Linghe was completely caught in the smoke of the beacon fire. Wuhu and Jiang soldiers were bloodied all night, and it was at a critical juncture that the breath of rescue came from Guiyang.

Jiang Chan was forced step by step, with only 800 troops left to resist the opponent's 3,000 troops, he was almost unable to hold Linhe's defensive line.

When Jiang Shan heard the news, he was horrified, he didn't know who was the private soldier in Guiyang, but he heard the report of his grandson's general: "That person claims to be the general of Meng Disaster!" Jiang Taigong! I also hope to send reinforcements to save the third son! ”

The total number of defense troops and unified troops in Linhe County is only 15,000 soldiers, and the soldiers of his Jiang family are only 30,000 soldiers.

In addition to the 5,000 troops defending in the city in front, there are 5,000 troops fighting outside the city. The total number of soldiers and generals in each county town to resist the rebellion of the fine work was about 15,000. Of the remaining more than 5,000 soldiers, 2,000 soldiers are under the control of the command office, and 3,000 soldiers are guarding the city gates, where are the surplus soldiers for him to mobilize to save Jiang Chan?

At this moment, he was in a difficult situation both internally and externally, and Jiang Shan's anger was almost out.

At this time, outside the Hou Mansion in the Guannei, a person in a dark robe galloped on a horse, followed by two thousand elite soldiers of the command mansion and two thousand elite guards and horses towards Jiang Shan.

Seeing the Marquis of Huaiyin hurrying over, Jiang Shan's originally pale and old face became even darker.

The man dismounted, and out of the courtesy of the juniors to the seniors, he bowed respectfully to him and called: "Jiang Taigong! ”

Jiang Shan didn't have a good impression of this person, and said coldly with a very long face: "I don't know what the Marquis of Huaiyin is doing here?" ”

Ning Nan's face was serious, and he said carefully: "How can the commander of the soldiers and horses not know about the turmoil in the city? If so, wouldn't it be a disappointment to His Majesty's painstaking efforts to send his juniors here? I also hope that Mrs. Jiang will understand that the younger generation has only arrived at this time! ”
