Pang Yuan put the credit on Yang Xue, Zhang Shumo turned to look at Yang Xue, Yang Xue smiled at Pang Yuan, and then winked at Zhang Shumo.

Everyone was already full of speculation about Yang Xue's identity, but now that they heard Pang Yuan's words, they were even more curious. So Jiao Qiang couldn't help but ask: "Master Zhang, haven't you asked this girl yet?" ”

Zhang Shumo hurriedly explained: "Oh, this is Miss Yang Xue, who was originally from our Huaiguo, and later fled to Jingguo to escape the war. Who knew that Ji Wen forcibly detained Miss Yang's family and forcibly married Miss Yang as a concubine, and Miss Yang also secretly helped us! Zhang Shumo deliberately concealed that Yang Xue was doing the internal affairs for himself, worried about leaking the news.

When everyone heard this, they arched their hands towards Yang Xue, and Yang Xue hurriedly returned the salute. Then everyone exchanged pleasantries and went to rest.

On the second day, Yang Xue had to leave Dieling Pass early because she was going to return to Jingguo. Zhang Shumo sent her ten miles away, but Yang Xue didn't let him send it again. After all, after passing the Dieling Pass, it is the place of Jingguo, although it is sparsely populated, but in case the Jingguo army sends scouts over and finds out about Yang Xue's matter, it will be troublesome.

Seeing that Yang Xue had to bear such a heavy pressure in this flower-like grade, Zhang Shumo felt very guilty in his heart, and suddenly a trace of impulse was born in his heart: "Actually, it's okay if you don't go back, Ji Wen will only think that you died in battle to cover his retreat, and he won't embarrass your family!" ”

Hearing Zhang Shumo's words, Yang Xue was moved in her heart, she threw herself into Zhang Shumo's arms, and tears rolled in her eyes again: "Actually, I don't want to leave, I don't know if I can see you again in this life, but I am very satisfied with your words!" ”

Zhang Shumo touched Yang Xue's hair: "I promise you, we will definitely meet again!" ”

Behind the two were Pang Yuan and five hundred cavalrymen who rushed to protect them. When Pang Yuan saw this, he immediately said to his subordinates: "Turn around for me, you didn't see anything!" ”

Yang Xue snuggled in Zhang Shumo's arms and nodded heavily: "I'm leaving, can you write me a poem?" It's like what I wrote for Miss Yunyan. ”

Zhang Shumo nodded, looked in the air, and saw several migratory birds flying from south to north, and blurted out the verses.

The bird returned to the clouds, and the Yiren parted; The oath is as strong as iron, and the love between the two is not extinguished.

Yang Xue gradually drifted away with the melodious chanting, Zhang Shumo watched for a long time, and finally took people to start the return journey.

Zhang Shumo was silent along the way, and when he was about to reach Dieling Pass, Zhang Shumo suddenly said to Pang Yuan: "That ......"

Pang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately grabbed the words: "We didn't see anything just now, and we will never say half a word!" ”

Zhang Shumo was also stunned when he heard it, and then understood what Pang Yuan meant, and couldn't help laughing: "It's still General Pang who thinks thoughtfully, but I'm not talking about this, I want to say that I will send a secret sentry to keep an eye on Jingguo's movements later, so as not to be caught off guard by the other party!" ”

Pang Yuan smiled awkwardly when he heard this: "My subordinates understand, but Ji Wen should not have raised troops so quickly when he returned from defeat just now, unless the enemy's reinforcements arrive." ”

Zhang Shumo nodded: "I understand, keep an eye on them just in case." Now we have to deal with the Jingguo soldiers in the next phase of the city first! ”

Back at Dieling Pass, Zhang Shumo originally wanted to gather people from all parties to discuss the attack on the next city, but he didn't think that Jiao Qiang had already summoned everyone in the council hall in advance, so he waited for Zhang Shumo to come back.

Zhang Shumo came to the conference hall, and Jiao Qiang immediately said to everyone: "Everyone, the main reason for calling everyone over today is to discuss the next things. Although Ji Wen has been driven out of the northwest, our crisis has not yet been resolved, and Jingguo's army will come again at any time, so we must always be ready to meet the enemy! ”

Hearing Jiao Qiang's words, everyone nodded yes, so Jiao Qiang continued: "Since we want to resist the Jingguo army, then all of us must continue to unite, otherwise it may be difficult to resist the invasion of Jingguo with the strength of either side alone, so I propose that we form an alliance with the three parties, and then elect the alliance leader to lead the three parties with full powers!" ”

When Wu Tai heard this, he immediately got up and said: "It's naturally no problem to form an alliance, but I think that the leader of this alliance must be Zhang Gongzi, otherwise I won't waste time with you." ”

As soon as these words came out, Huang Qi stood up with a loud voice: "General Wu is inevitably too decisive, right?" Zhang Shumo is just a child who is not as old as a weak crown, how can he be the leader of the alliance to convince the public? ”

Wu Tai glanced at Huang Qi and snorted coldly, "Which green onion are you?" Is there a place for you to speak? ”

Huang Qi was about to have a seizure but was stopped by Huang Can: "General Wu is so angry, Huang Qi is a member of my Western Route Army, why can't he speak?" However, the position of the leader of this alliance can be held by Zhang Gongzi. ”

Zhang Shumo thought that Huang Can was going to have a seizure, and was thinking about how to promote Jiao Qiang as the leader of the alliance, but he didn't expect Huang Can to change his mind and directly agree to Wu Tai's proposal, Zhang Shumo didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to wait and see.

Seeing that Huang Can agreed to his proposal, Wu Tai thought that he was worried about his withdrawal, so he smiled proudly at Huang Qi.

Huang Qi naturally couldn't swallow this breath, and immediately said to Huang Can: "Dad, how can you help an outsider?" I think General Jiao Qiang is more suitable to be the leader of the alliance! ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yan and Zhang Lin immediately echoed: "Well, General Jiao Wen Taowu is proficient in everything, and it is most suitable for him to be the leader of the alliance!" ”

Who knew that Jiao Qiang laughed out loud: "I just have the strength to do it, how can I have any Wen Tao Wu strategy, in my opinion, it is still Zhang Gongzi to be the leader of this alliance, I am still suitable for charging into battle!" ”

After Jiao Qiang finished speaking, the rest of the people agreed to Zhang Shumo as the leader of the alliance. On the contrary, Huang Qi, Zhang Yan and others were stunned.

When Zhang Shumo saw this, he knew that they must have discussed this matter in advance, otherwise they would not have convened everyone to discuss it. It's just that Zhang Shumo didn't expect that even the backbone of the Western Route Army actually agreed to be the leader of the alliance with a hairy boy, did they already know their identity?

Just thinking about it, Jiao Qiang said to Zhang Shumo: "Master Zhang, most people elected you as the leader of the alliance, so you can make a statement, right?" ”

Zhang Shumo arched his hand to everyone: "Since you believe in me, Zhang someone, then I will naturally bow down and die!" If you don't have any objections, can we discuss the next steps now? ”

"This is natural, I don't know what Zhang Gongzi's plans are?" Jiao Qiang asked.

Zhang Shumo directly said his thoughts: "Although Jingguo's reinforcements are like a sharp sword hanging over our heads, after all, this sword has not fallen yet, so I want to take this opportunity to pull out the fishbone stuck in the throat of the next city, I don't know what you think?" ”
