Wu Shixun continued: "Yes, yes, I agree with what General Zhuang said. "Alright, it's time for me to lead the troops out, you talk."

Zhuang Ji shouted to Wu Shixun and said, "Hey, your department is starting along the river, right?" ”

Wu Shixun said: "Yes, Xiao Zuo and I formed a joint encirclement and locked them up one by one. ”

Xiao Bu said again and again: "Yes, yes, Kada Shifei is one, but it is actually a triangular encirclement. Wu Xianxian, you may be the first to contact Tu Dengfu, see how he treats us, it's best not to conflict too much, just settle it peacefully. ”

Wu Shixun said understandingly: "I know, salute first and then soldier, let him make the right choice." ”

Zhuang Ji said approvingly: "Yes, he changed me and influenced him with sincerity and generosity, it is best for you to find a way to meet with Tu Dengfu and explain the overall situation, and at the same time, you can also touch his details to facilitate our deployment." ”

Wu Shixun immediately thought of a person, and said to Zhuang Ji: "General Zhuang, can I ask Huai Yue to contact Tu Dengfu?" I don't know if Huai Yue had any contact with him when he was at Shimen Pass. ”

Zhuang Ji waved his hand and said, "Huai Yue still has his task, so don't touch him in general." You can go directly to him about this, because after all, he is the commander of the first army, and he has to give him the respect he deserves. ”

Wu Shixun said again and again: "Yes, yes, okay, I'll go." ”

As soon as he went out, he ran into Jing Yin and stopped him and said, "You are going on an expedition?" ”

"Yes," Wu Shixun invited Jing Yindao, "The princess will come with us, okay?" ”

Jing Yin asked rhetorically, "What's the use of me going with you?" ”

Wu Shixun said sincerely: "The princess presses the formation, which is more useful than an army of 100,000. ”

Jing Yin encouraged: "With you Wu Shixun personally commanding, you will definitely be able to win the battlefield." I can only be a logistician for you. With that, she entered Zhuang Ji's office.

As soon as Zhuang Ji saw Jing Yin, he said, "You came just in time, sit down first." ”

Xiao Bu and Jing Yin nodded and said, "Princess, you're busy, I'm leaving." Then he hurried to go out.

Jing Yin stopped Xiao Bu and said, "What are you anxious about?" Just in front of General Zhuang, how to arrange the part of the people I brought? Can I continue to bring it? ”

Xiao Bu glanced at Zhuang Ji, and looked out for a while before saying: "Princess, don't go to the front line, it is said that the battlefield here is different from Yelang, in addition to human warfare, more tribal leaders like animal warfare, so, the danger is greater, you command the logistics." ”

Zhuang Ji immediately said: "General Xiaozuo's opinion is good, Jing Yin, you should do a good job in logistics, it is the same as doing front-line work, it is all for winning the battle and keeping peace." ”

Jing Yinshun said: "Even if it's all the same, General Zhuang, you are in charge of logistics, and I will go to the front line to ensure that I will win the battle according to your deployment, is it okay?" ”

Zhuang Ji was choked and speechless, and Xiao Bu said when he saw this: "General Zhuang means princess, you can play an important role anywhere." Well, if the princess really wants to go to the front, ask General Zhuang to arrange, and if the original team is not enough, you can be replenished at any time. ”

Zhuang Ji pointed at Xiao Bu and said: "Xiao Bu, you don't talk about credibility, just now you said that the front line is dangerous, let the public be in charge of logistics, this will change?" In the face of such a complex battlefield, is it necessary for you to put the princess in battle? ”

When Jing Yin heard this, she said unhappily: "According to what General Zhuang said, I am a person who can be asked or not, okay, I won't tell you big men, see if I have my own way." After that, they went out separately. Although Zhuang Ji called her from behind, she just didn't look back.

Jing Yin has two little soldiers, Gou Han and Erwa, so she has not forgotten to do a good job in logistics, such as the treatment of the wounded, so she arranged for Gou Han to prepare early.

As soon as the Battle of Shimen Pass ended and was about to attack the Laobaptist tribe, Jing Yin ordered Erwa to lead a few soldiers to lurk into the tribe for reconnaissance. Although these two babies are young, they have earlier military reconnaissance experience before seizing Wucheng, and they have trained their fat courage. He went deep into the tribe and prepared to meet Tu Dengfu, but was unsuccessful. only got the tribe's military strategy, which made Jing Yin mentally prepared.

Starting from the riverside, Wu Shixun's troops advanced 300 miles south to the north of Doudidian (now Zhaotong City), where the Laobaptist tribe gathered.

The leader of the Laobaptist tribe and Tu Dengfu had long been aware of the arrival of the Chu army, but they did not expect it to come so quickly. The head man asked Tu Dengfu to say: "Since it is the Chu army, can you convince them?" ”

Tu Dengfu asked rhetorically: "Do you want to fight them to the end, or do you want to make peace without a fight?" ”

The leader reprimanded: "My people have lived here for generations, how can outsiders occupy it? Not to mention what to talk about. If you can't make up your mind to fight the Chu army, you should quickly hand over the military power, and someone in our clan will fight them to the death. ”

Tu Dengfu said uncomprehensibly: "It's a fact that you have lived here for generations, but the Chu army just came, and they didn't say to drive everyone away, right?" My opinion is to talk to them first, and if we fight as soon as we come up, we may have an advantage at first, but in the long run,"

The head man said arrogantly: "I don't care about that, if you don't follow my orders, you can roll up and leave." ”

Tu Dengfu said angrily: "You really ignore your daughter and want me to leave? Then I'll go. As he spoke, he took nothing, picked up his sword, and walked out.

Lao Batou looked at Tu Dengfu's back, and suddenly felt that letting him go at this time was tantamount to self-destruction. He hurriedly caught up with Tu Dengfu and snatched the sword in his hand and said, "Let's go?" Where are you going? Go back quickly, and we'll discuss what to do. ”

Tu Dengfu heard that the head was discussing countermeasures, so he didn't bother with him, and turned around and returned to the head man's mansion.

His father-in-law said, "You lead troops to guard the pass, and then I have my own way to deal with outsiders who come from other ways." ”

Tu Dengfu said suspiciously: "Just guard the pass and it's over?" Is there anything else you can do, say it and I'll listen. ”

The leader waved his hand and said, "No, I can't say that yet." Don't be offended, because I haven't thought about maturity yet, and it doesn't do much to say it. ”

Tu Dengfu thought that it was useless to fight with his father-in-law, and he listened to him for the time being, if he wanted to make achievements, it was better to improvise on the battlefield. He said respectfully to his father-in-law: "Big head, I listen to you everything." ”

Tu Dengfu deployed his troops on both sides of the pass, and he didn't know what secrets his father-in-law would have, so he had to go to the pass by himself, and he couldn't see any flaws on the surface of the soldiers. Hehe, sit and wait for Xiaobu's Chu army to come.

"But he didn't come." A voice reached Tu Dengfu's ears.

He looked back and said in surprise: "Oh, Huaiyue, the big housekeeper, are you here?" ”

Ding Huaiyue made an arrogant gesture and said, "What, you are not welcome when I come?" ”
