While the Chishui Ministry was actively preparing for war, it wrote to Nanchu to ask why it was treacherous and secretly kept Qingyun. After receiving the letter, the Southern Chu Imperial Court of course refused to admit it. Old Lady Xu looked at Chishui's letter worriedly, and recalled that the craftsmen sent out had lost two people, and for a while his confidence was shaken again, and he wanted to terminate the alliance with Qingyun.

As soon as Mrs. Xu entered the lobby of the military department, she retreated from everyone, leaving only the book of the military department, and asked straight to the point: "How many cannons did you send to Qingyun?" ”

The military department Shangshu standing next to him replied respectfully: "There are ten doors in total." ”

"Fire

What about medicine arrows? ”

"More than three hundred."

"That's enough, no more sends." Old Lady Xu ordered, "The ambition of the Qingyun Ministry is even greater than that of the Chishui Ministry. Why should we feed a white-eyed wolf and cause trouble for ourselves. ”

The military department is in charge of the fire

Medicine, I have long known that the craftsman sent was killed. Although Craftsman Zou just said that it was Xiang Qiang's master who made trouble, but Mrs. Xu and the secretary of the military department still had suspicions in their hearts, and the khan did not agree, how could the great master dare to torture him in private?

"If we break it, the contract we made before ...... "The military department Shangshu is an important minister in the court, so he can know the private agreement between the court and Qingyun."

Mrs. Xu understood that the military department was worried that Qingyun would use this as an excuse not to return the lost land in the Central Plains in the future. But Mrs. Xu said: "Now that the Chishui Ministry is intervening, we have to stop." Instead of worrying about the Qingyun Ministry, let's think about how to deal with the Chishui Ministry. ”

"Will the Chishui Ministry send troops to attack?" Bingbu Shangshu asked.

"I have received a letter from Yuan Yuan, in which she mentions that Major General Yele has dissuaded the Khan and will not attack for the time being. However, we still need to be ready for battle. ”

Xu Yuan has always had correspondence with his family, and Ye Leyi knew about it, but she didn't stop it. After all, homesickness is human nature, and Xu Yuan has no access to any secrets, Ye Leyi trusts Xu Yuan very much.

When the military department Shangshu heard the assurances of Princess Anping, he was relieved at once. At least Xiang Qiang will not send troops immediately, they will be caught off guard, and they still have time to prepare food, grass, soldiers and horses.

The Chishui Department gathered soldiers and horses, stepped up training, and made a big disturbance on the grassland, and the spies of the Qingyun Department knew it at once. At first, Tuoba Ling still had a trace of luck, thinking that the Chishui Department and Nanchu had fallen out. But Yele Khan didn't take Qingyun seriously at all, and directly declared war on them, completely shattering the beautiful illusions of the great power division.

Khan Tuoba Yan urgently summoned the Great Masters and Qin Luo to discuss countermeasures. Khan complained: "We have been very careful in transporting weapons and food and grass, how did they find out about it? ”

"It seems to have been leaked by a craftsman from the Central Plains." The Great Master glared at Qin Luo fiercely, "It's all your fault, if you didn't have to release those craftsmen, how could the Chishui Ministry find out that we were allied with the Central Plains." ”

Qin Luo now feels that the great masters are becoming more and more unreasonable and brazen. His injuries were just right, and he was too lazy to compete with Tuoba Ling for a while, and was finally reprimanded by the Khan.

Qin Luo said to the Khan: "For the sake of today's plan, immediately gather the soldiers and contact the Baisha Department." ”

"Baishabu, can you rely on it?" The Great Master is still very suspicious of Baisha.

The khan also showed doubts, and the grass on the wall fell with the wind. If there is a real fight, I am most afraid that the Baisha Department will suddenly turn back and help the Chishui Department.

"If the Khan is not at ease, I will go there myself?" Qin Luo asked.

Tuoba Yan remembered that when Danyang City was in danger, it was also Qin Luo who sent an envoy to the Chishui Department and found reinforcements to save their lives. It's a pity that the benefactor of the past has become the enemy now. I have to sigh that time has changed, and things are not people.

Tuoba Yan's heart suddenly tightened, maybe at that time, when Ye Leyi led the troops to rescue Qingyun, they wanted to occupy Danyang City and become the lord of the grassland.

The wind rises at the end of Qingping, and its coming is gradual, and its entry is also deep. The Chishui Ministry's rebellion has long been symptomatic. It's no wonder that Tuoba Yan was confused by Yeleyi at that time, and he responded to Chishui's needs and neglected to take precautions.

"Okay, allow you to send to Baisha. Hopefully, this time, you'll be able to bring in a rescuer as well. Tuoba said.

"Minister, you will not fail in your mission." Qin Luo commanded.

Tuoba rubbed his brow and waved them down. Qin Luo turned around and retreated, while the Great Master had not left after Qin Luo left. Tuoba looked at the second brother suspiciously, and asked, "Do you have anything else?" ”

The Great Master glanced at the tent vigilantly, and after making sure that Qin Luo was far away, he said in a low voice: "Don't pin all your hopes on this wall-head grass in the Baisha Department, Khan, it's better to redevelop the fire."

Medicine, perhaps, can come in handy. ”

"It's too late, the Chishui Ministry may attack tomorrow. Second brother, why don't you give up, now let Alem train the soldiers of the firearms battalion, which is the most important thing. ”

Tuoba Yan has already broken off the idea of developing firearms, but the great master is still unwilling, he is not willing to see such advanced weapons in the Central Plains, and they Qingyun does not have them.

"Khan, you have to take a long-term view, we are so backward, we will definitely be counterattacked by the Central Plains in the future."

Tuoba Yan is now on fire, where can he see the long-term? He felt that the second brother had been stunned by firearms recently, "I only look at the present, the Red Sailors are coming to the city, we can't even save our lives, what do you care about the long term?" ”

"Well, I can't make sense with you." Tuoba Ling was disheartened, "I only ask the Khan to give me fifty fires."

Medicine arrows, as a study. ”

"Nope." Tuoba Yan's heart is now on fire

There were not enough medicine arrows in the first place, and some were used in the training firearms battalion. When the war with Chishui began, Nan Chu would definitely not be able to send weapons. There are not enough soldiers in the firearms battalion, and the second brother still wants to do research?

"That'...... Thirty sticks, is that okay? "Tuoba Ling has reduced the number of demands.

Tuoba Yan was taken aback, the second brother was not only beaten for firearms, but even began to learn to bargain like a herdsman in the market? The second brother has always been an arrogant person, but now he doesn't care about his face, and he has given up everything.

The devil was stunned, he was really stunned. This firearm is really harmful.

"Twenty?" Seeing that the Khan was deep in thought, Tuoba Ling thought that he was angry, so he tried it again.

"......" Tuoba Yan saw his second brother begging him so humbly for the first time, and he really didn't know what to say.

"Fifteen, no less." Tuoba Ling made the final concession.

"Okay, good, I'll give you fifteen." Tuoba Yan relented, and finally agreed.

Three days later, the Chishui Ministry sent troops to the Zhanlu Prairie and launched a decisive battle against Qingyun. At this time, Qin Luo had already taken his guide Ze Anji on the way to Baishabu. Therefore, he didn't know that it was not Yeleyi who led the troops to fight this time, but the scheming Yelekhan.
