"I once asked you what your purpose was in studying martial arts, and your answer at the time was: to protect your loved ones from harm. This is very good, but not good enough, we are all one of the Han people, seeing the chaos in the world, the common people are miserable, how can we be alone? ”

"The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, I don't expect you to be able to calm the world, but at least you have to shock one side and protect the people from the chaos, understand?" Wu Mourning said solemnly, Zhu Li saw him so serious for the first time, although he usually had a straight face, he always revealed his warmth, but now it is different.

"Okay, master, I'll do my best." Zhu Li clenched his fists and assured firmly.

"Well, you're not vain, you're not pompous, that's good, and if in the end, you've tried your best and still haven't done anything, I won't blame you." Although he said so, Wu Mourning didn't believe that Zhu Li would be a person who had achieved nothing, a teenager, so that when he met for the first time, he had an urge to bow his head and worship, if such a young man could be ordinary, then he would be a ghost.

He didn't know that the impulse to bow down was actually caused by the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and it actually had nothing to do with Zhu Li, but when Zhu Li had him, the Sixteen Kingdoms, he was the king of heaven who shocked the world, and if he wanted to be ordinary, I am afraid it would be difficult.

On this day, Zhu Li only trained for most of the day, and the rest of the time, he stayed by his sister's side, let her ride on her back and walk the horse, let her sit on her neck, stretch out her arms to learn to fly, etc., as much as possible to let the little girl play happily, the silver bell-like laughter almost never stopped, making Wu Mourning and Pang Honggu very embarrassed, after all, it was the decision of the two of them that caused the little brother and sister to be separated.

In the evening, as expected by Wu Mourning, Bi Shiduo reorganized the army and handed over all the reserve army to Pang Honggu to take charge, and he himself took the army and set off overnight to Tanzhou.

Wu Mourning discussed with Pang Honggu and asked her to hide the grain and grass left by Bi Shiduo in a designated place when she dismissed the women and children, and when she had time to pick it up, Pang Honggu naturally agreed.

At the time of separation, Wu Mourning was dressed in armor, carrying a knife and holding a spear, commanding more than 700 Pang Xun's old departments, under the leadership of Bi Shiduo, set off in a majestic manner, accompanied by Zhu Li, Zhang Guimu, and Zhang Guihou.

Zhu Li was dressed in black iron steel armor, holding a double-edged spear weighing more than fifty catties, carrying a standard Pu knife at his waist, closely following Wu Mourning's side, with a serious expression, not daring to slack off, after all, this was the first time he had experienced such a scene.

And Zhang Guihou and Zhang Guimu brothers are different, I heard that they have become real guards, these two brothers, energetic, have been very high, their spirits are flying, their eyebrows are dancing, they are as happy as the New Year, and they almost don't have the words "I'm very happy, I'm proud" written on the door of their heads.

Bi Shiduo is the general of Huangchao, his command ability will never be as good as Qin Yan, when the emergency replenishment, Bi Shiduo took the lead in gathering some of the elites hidden in the auxiliaries, and then selected other elite auxiliaries, with elite veterans as the fire captain, the team is positive, and a team of more than 8,000 people was formed in an instant.

As for the old department of Pang Xun led by Wu Mourning, Bi Shiduo was also very greedy, but unfortunately these people only obeyed Pang Honggu's orders, and now they are led by the Wu Mourning who does not know the details, and it is impossible for him to interfere.

He also intended to let Wu Mourn take the lead, but just thinking about it, he knew that Wu Mourning would not listen to him, and the other party had no other promises except for promising him to act when he saw the opportunity.

However, Bi Shiduo still has high expectations for them, he already has little hope for Qin Yan's subordinates, Qin Yan's background is no one knows better than him, that is, a scoundrel, bandit, and fanatic, after a battle with Liang Zhang, it would be good if he could keep some remnants of the army, and the hope of turning defeat into victory could not be counted on at all.

The galloping army drove out, and hundreds of Yue cavalry rushed out, closely following behind Bi Shiduo.

The sudden appearance of Yue Cai made Zhu Li very surprised, he stayed in the reserve army for more than half a month, and he had never seen a horse, but now hundreds of horses suddenly poured out, not strange.

Although he was on the march, Wu Mian still paid attention to Zhu Li's state at all times, and found that his expression was different, so he couldn't help but look at him.

When Zhu Li saw him, he immediately came up to him, pointed to the hundreds of Yue riders in front of him, and whispered: "Master, where did these Yue riders come from, why have I never seen them." ”

Wu Mian glanced back at the hundreds of Yue cavalry who were following behind Bi Shiduo, and said indifferently: "Those Yue cavalry are all sentinels, they have been wandering around us, responsible for reconnaissance and intelligence, you just didn't pay attention, in fact, every once in a while, there will always be a few riders who come back to report the news." ”

After answering Zhu Li's doubts, but also reminding Wu Mourning's attention, he stared at these Yue Riders intently, as if he realized something, and muttered: "Bi Shi Duo will not pin his hopes on these Yue Riders, if so, he is really whimsical, it seems that we have to prepare early." ”

"What are you going to do?" Zhu Li asked puzzled.

"Bi Shiduo doesn't know the enemy at all, he deliberately gathered all the Yue cavalry, I'm afraid he wants to use them to deal with Liang Zhang, if Liang Zhang is an ordinary general, he is understandable to do so, after all, this is the south, there are more boats and fewer horses, maybe he can really succeed, but what kind of person is Liang Zhang, he was originally a Xirong person, cavalry competition, Bi Shiduo is not worthy of his apprentice, if he really does this, we want to fish in the water, it will be difficult, we must change his mind." Wu Mourning frowned, a little hated that iron could not be made of steel.

"Why didn't the master tell him?" Zhu Li asked puzzledly, this is also his biggest doubt, they are now a group, shouldn't they be both prosperous and lossy, and he found that Wu Mourning always eliminated Bi Shiduo, Qin Yan and others intentionally or unintentionally, which made him very puzzled.

When Wu Mourning heard this, he glanced at him with a smile, and lowered his voice: "Why do you want to tell them that it is inevitable to be a military general and a horse leather shroud, and it is common to become someone else's pawn, do you think Bi Shiduo, and a fool like Qin Yan, are you qualified to let me be their pawn?" ”

Wu Mourning's words made Zhu Li suddenly proud, this is the pride in Wu Mourning's bones, to put it bluntly, he doesn't look down on the generals like Bi Shiduo and Qin Yan at all, but if you think about it carefully, Wu Mourning has this pride, but it is inevitable.

Who is the king of Wu Mourning, he is the founder of the Ran Wei regime in the Sixteen Kingdoms, the former emperor of Ran Wei, even if he has to assist Zhu Li due to the relationship of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", he will not call himself a subordinate, but very domineering Zhu Li has become his own disciple, this is his pride, the former emperor, although he has forgotten the past, and lived again, it is still difficult to change the pride that he once had as the emperor.

When he said this, Zhu Li closed his mouth in amusement; Using Wu Mourning as a chess piece, Bi Shiduo, Qin Yan and others are really unworthy, and with this feeling in his heart, he hurried up.

At dawn, the army drove to the edge of Xiangshui, a group of dejected, decadent and wooden remnants of the army, dragging the tattered banner to meet them, roughly estimated that there were only about two or three thousand people, Qin Yan led the vanguard army, a total of about 11,000 people, now there is only so little left, the whole loss of more than seven or eighty percent, it can be seen how miserable they were defeated.

The first person, with his hair scattered and his clothes and armor in rags, saw Bi Shiduo, he was silent, knelt down, and looked like admitting punishment and admitting punishment.

Fortunately, such a tragic situation seems to have been expected by Bi Shiduo, he was not as angry as he imagined, but jumped off the war horse, personally helped the man, and comforted: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, General Qin does not have to blame himself, the battle report will be received, the enemy is too cunning, people are unexpected, in that case, even if it is replaced by this general, it will not do better than General Qin, and please General Qin cheer up, let's regroup and fight again, I don't believe that he is a three-headed and six-armed character." ”

Bi Shiduo was also forced to be helpless, he received news that Liang Zhang had a total of 30,000 troops, and they were all fierce soldiers, only relying on the army of less than 10,000 under his command, he had no confidence to defeat the other party, although Qin Yan was defeated, but he still gathered two or three thousand remnants, don't underestimate these people, they are all old pawns, strong combat power, Bi Shiduo still expects these people to give him his life, how can he not win over.

Bi Shiduo's performance was very successful, at least it seemed that Qin Yan was very moved, crying like rain, wailing and thanking, gambling and swearing, "Bang, Bang, Bang" patted his chest and said wildly, he will definitely wear guilt and make meritorious contributions, etc.

Seeing Wu Mourning laughing, he shook his head secretly, Zhu Li also felt a little disgusting, this is too fake, the loss of six or seven thousand people, the sentence "victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers" is completely exculpable, it is really speechless.

However, Bi Shiduo is the main general, how to deal with it, it is not Zhu Li's turn to point fingers, and along the Xiangshui coast, the army quickly completed the second integration.

Of course, among the remnants, there are one or two hundred men from Pang Xun's old department, and these people were soon attached to Wu Mourning's command, and now the strength controlled by Wu Mourning is about nine hundred people, and he already has the number of people in one province.

Pang Xun's old department was originally the remnants of Pang Xun's rebellion, although it is not the original team now, but most of them are the descendants of those original team members, they have been wandering for so many years, almost never stopped fighting, and those who can survive are the elite of the elite, and the combat power is immeasurable.

After the rectification, it was already midnight, and Bi Shiduo urgently convened a military meeting, Zhu Li followed Wu Mourning's side, and was fortunate to participate in the meeting, and the participants, about a dozen people, were basically officers at the level of captain.

Although Wu Mian is a captain, he now has nearly 1,000 people under his command, which is equivalent to a medium-sized Zhichong Mansion, and in terms of real power, he is no less than those guards under the command of the captain.

Bi Shiduo sat on the throne of the big tent and took the lead in speaking: "General Qin, you have fought with the other party, you should know the enemy's situation best, you should talk about the specific situation first." ”
