Langye City, the border city of Nanyan and Yuelong, is located in the southernmost city of Yuelong, where the four seasons are rainy and mild, the vegetation is lush, there are many ethnic minorities, and the folk customs are simple.

Although Chen Feng is young, he has a soft spot for the simple folk customs here, and he is still very reluctant to let him go back to Yueyang City, but the division cannot be violated, and it is the best for him to recruit troops and horses to strengthen his army.

Sweep the population to the south and go all the way north.

The iron horsemen made a detour from the east, in order to avoid the soldiers and horses guarding the west of Ji Chen.

But look, Chen Feng is still afraid of General Ji Chen, a young man wearing red armor, holding a simple knife, riding a red rabbit horse, the best horse breed is still a red rabbit, tall, strong limbs, can travel thousands of miles a day, this kind of rare BMW is only available in the Northern Wilderness, the emperor saw the face of the great master to reward Chen Feng as a gift to Nanzhen, so many years have been taking care of it.

At this moment, the young man had a calm smile on his face, and a soldier on the side rode quickly to catch up and said: "General, it is not easy to recruit soldiers and horses in this area, and many men have been bought by a woman!"

"Woman?" Chen Feng wondered, "What kind of woman is buying so many men to do? Could it be that she is itching so impatiently? Can't find a suitable one?"

The soldier smiled and said, "It is said that there is a female bandit who robbed a lot of silver and spent money to buy men, and it is in this area." ”

Chen Feng said clearly: "The bandits still spend money, it's really strange, no matter her, as long as she doesn't provoke me, more is better than less, as long as the man is arrested from village to village, each family will be ten taels of silver per person, and those who disobey will be killed." ”

As he spoke, he took the white jade from his waist and handed it to the soldiers, this is my token from General Zhennan, they see that this token can be regarded as a rebellion, there is nothing wrong with it.

The soldier agreed, "Yes!"

The two of them quickened their speed, and when they reached the village in front, they went door to door and arrested people, and the children were arrested as long as they were as tall as horses, and those who disobeyed were killed, and only men were killed, not women, and children who were no taller than horses.

As everyone knows, this method violates military morality, and if one person forcibly captures the soldiers, he will only make the soldiers complain, so how can they have the enthusiasm to go to the battlefield?

Qi Hongtian understood these truths, so when he went south, although he recruited troops and did not arrest any of them to serve as soldiers, he was just crazy brainwashing, and the brainwashing effect was very good.

As long as the reputation of the places swept by Chen Feng was complaining and complaining, leaving behind the old, weak, sick, disabled, and women, who would work? As a result, many places were poor, and the state tax revenue in this area was obviously reduced, and even the local officials reported to the imperial court to ask for food.

Chen Feng's behavior along the way quickly spread to the palace, and the news spread really fast, Qing Ziyuan just wrote a letter to stop this kind of behavior, who expected that Qi Hongtian would know about it and use this as an excuse to eliminate Chen Feng.

When he went to court today, Qi Hongtian stood at the front and said to the Queen Mother: "Chen Feng violated the taboo in the army and arrested people to fill the army, so he should be killed, leaving a few fart dolls and old women who will work, they will have a famine, the court tax will be reduced, you don't eat, Lao Tzu's brothers want to eat, grandma's Lao Tzu will wave his troops south to arrest this guy back!"

Qing Ziyuan hurriedly smiled and said: "It's all my disciples, and if this little cub wants to kill, I will kill it." ”

"The treasure in your palm, are you willing to kill it?"

"If you make a mistake, you will make a mistake!" Qing Ziyuan snorted coldly, "But he can't kill for the time being, and now at a critical moment, Nanguan can't be lost." ”

Qi Hongtian laughed when he heard this: "Dead old man, you are so cunning, didn't you summon him to go north, will you say that Nanguan can't be lost?"

Qing Ziyuan hurriedly smiled: "I asked him to go north because he asked him to go north to recruit troops and buy horses, not to return to the dynasty, and we can't relax at any of our passes." ”

Qi Hongtian understood that this was Qing Ziyuan's excuse, so he said: "Yes, you old thing has said so, I'll see if he goes north to return to the dynasty or is he stuck in the old nest?"

After speaking, he turned around and went out, Liu Xiaoran sneered on the side, the fight between the two was really interesting, and he thought to himself, Chen Feng would not dare to come back this time.

After retreating from the dynasty, Qingzi Yuan quickly returned to the mansion and wrote to Chen Feng to ask him not to come back, not to arrest people and fill troops in the future, as long as he came back, Qi Hongtian would not let him go, hide in the south safely, continue to turn back and defend the south, blow dry the ink and send someone to send it immediately.

Yan Lianyun sat aside and drank a cup of tea and said, "National Teacher, is this kind of behavior really good for your apprentice? Didn't you calculate that he would come like this?"

Qing Ziyuan put down the brush and said: "Queen Mother, do you know that the time for Zhitian Realm to calculate the future will not be very long, and I haven't calculated this point yet." ”

"How's the moment?"

"Let Chen Feng return to Nanguan to guard, Qi Hongtian will not attack us for the time being, Chen Feng can't fall, as long as he falls, we don't have any military power. ”

"I don't know what Xiao Yuanshan means, so I withdrew the guards and let Qi Hongtian guard the city gate. ”

Qing Ziyuan was puzzled: "I don't know, why don't you go and find out his details, what does it mean to be the commander of the guards?"

Yan Lianyun said: "It's okay." ”

Qing Ziyuan lifted the gray robe and walked out, lifted the kettle to the courtyard to water the flowers, and Yan Lianyun left with a few guards until Xiao Yuanshan's mansion.

Xiao Yuanshan doesn't drink and pretend to be drunk these days, and when he drinks too much, he smells the wine and is no longer fragrant, which is disgusting, so he practices swords in the mansion these days, and sometimes he goes outside the Tianmen to see Chen Bei'an, and chats with Chen Bei'an about his recent cultivation.

He had just finished practicing his sword and was about to go to Tianmen to see Chen Bei'an, Yan Lianyun was arriving, Xiao Yuanshan frowned slightly.

Yan Lianyun turned into the courtyard and saw Xiao Yuanshan and smiled: "Where is Commander Xiao going here?"

"Go and meet my apprentice. Xiao Yuanshan chuckled, "Since the Queen Mother is here, she won't go, please sit down." ”

"So I disturbed Commander Xiao?"

"Where is it? the Queen Mother must have something!"

The two came to the living room and sat down, Xiao Yuanshan ordered the little servant to serve tea, Yan Lianyun smiled and said, "Why did you withdraw the guards and let Qi Hongtian guard the city gate?"

Xiao Yuanshan said bluntly: "Qi Hongtian forced me, the knife was on my neck, let me do this." ”

"You're afraid of him?"

Xiao Yuanshan glanced at Yan Lianyun and smiled: "Aren't you afraid of him?"

Yan Lianyun was silent for a while, took a sip of tea and said, "Good tea, this tea is from our Nanyan, right?"

"Yes!" Xiao Yuanshan looked down at his shoes, "Nanyan is foggy and can produce a lot of good tea. ”

Yan Lianyun put down the teacup, although she didn't come to enjoy the tea, and said, "You mean that you took refuge in Qi Hongtian?"

Xiao Yuanshan said impatiently: "I'll be straightforward, I won't take refuge in anyone, if you want to pull me to take refuge in you, just give up!"

"Sometimes it's not okay to go alone. ”

"Sometimes it's not okay to blindly huddle together for warmth. ”

Yan Lianyun smiled, and secretly thought, when the words are said and done, what else can he say, it seems that Xiao Yuanshan is unconvincing.
