"You said we were going to Yihe? That's a good place. ”

His eyes narrowed into a line with a smile, and Hua Shengrong patted Yun Chongbo's shoulder with great ease, and there was no more panic at night.

The so-called Yihe, in the Jinzhou aborigines of the real name of Hami, is one of the big cities in the south-central part of Jinzhou, in Xingqing is just south of 200 miles away, the northwest is surrounded by mountains on both sides, there is a big lake in the south, there are tens of thousands of acres of land in the square circle, it is a rare arable land in Jinzhou, it is also the earliest place of cultivation for the soldiers in Jinzhou, and it is also the earliest place of cultivation for the soldiers in Jinzhou, and it is set up by the imperial court 600 years ago to set up the post of Yihe Duwei, leading the tuntian, until now, it is a famous granary in Jinzhou, and the grain of the officials and soldiers in half of the state depends on its supply, especially the capital Xingqing, and it is necessary to take more than 1,000 stones of grain from Yihe every month to support a cityAt the same time, Yihe has built a large warehouse, which can store hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and grass, and the paper accounts alone will be a great famine, and Yihe's six warehouses are also enough for the whole army of Heishui to be half a year old.

According to the military regulations of the Central Plains, this place can be called a place of life and death, at least there should be a confidant general, tens of thousands of elite soldiers stationed here, but, it is very strange, compared with that important position, Yihe is not protected by pitiful.

"There are only two thousand-level officers in total, and the specifications of the garrison are not even five thousand?"

"Yes."

Nodding slightly, Xiao Wenshuang confirmed Yun Chongbo's question, his eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"But why is that?"

"Because I don't need it, of course!"

Haha laughing, Hua Shengrong patted Yun Chongbo, and said proudly: "The people who garrisoned the army in that place are stupid, and the local people of Jinzhou don't know about it." ”

It turned out that hundreds of years ago, Yihe City created a time, and also set up military horses and horses to fight here all the year round like the ordinary military system, one was grain, and the other was guarded, but later there was a Jinzhou Commander of Soldiers and Horses, and he wrote to the imperial court, and generously stated, please withdraw this army and move north to defend the border.

"Speaking of which, he is right, the three directions around Yihe City are thousands of miles of desert, mixed with some large and small green states, there are no people of different races at all, Xingqing is in the north, it is only more than two hundred miles away from here, if people of different races call, how can they pass the Xingqing pass first, if even Xingqing is defeated, then, the garrison here is even more useless?"

"Even if there are really some horse thieves and bandits who have been killed from the desert, but here in Xingqing except for Helian Pass, it is all a horse and a flat river, as long as there is a little news, the cavalry can arrive in a day, how to say that there are four or five thousand people here, even if you can't win, can't you hold it for a day?"

"Besides, although it is said to be a desert, it is not that no one lives, a green state is a village, a water and grass is a group of people, here is hundreds of miles away from Yihe City is the largest, usually the people buy some oil and salt, sell some medicinal materials are here, come and go lively, not sooner or later Yihe will send people out to patrol, larger villages also have beacon poles, if there is really a large army moving here, it can be known a hundred and ten miles away."

"But..."

Shaking his head, Yun Chongbo didn't say any more, but he was still very suspicious in his heart: last night, Zhao Feiya suddenly said that he was going to save the city and hang the people, so he refused to say anything more, only said that he was going to Yihe, and then avoided it, which made him nervous, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.

If according to what Hua Shengrong said, then the city should be as safe as Mount Tai: how to say it, Jinzhou is the land of the Heishui Wanyan family, and the "Tiefutu Army" directly under the Wanyan family's own military account is called the "Three Great Cavalry in the World" with the "Red Rabbit Army" of the Gongtai Dong family and the "Yueqi Mud Pill Army" in the "Pingnan Jiudao Military Horse", a mere 200 miles of road, in their opinion, it is indeed just a day's footsteps, and if someone can unknowingly put the force that can annihilate the Tiefutu Army with a regular establishment of nearly 20,000 people into the Yihe line... That is a head-to-head duel without this method, and Golden State will inevitably fall into the hands of people.

(But, Brother Zhao, he doesn't seem to be a person who can talk casually?) ）

The fox was suspicious, Yun Chongbo didn't have much to do with Hua Shengrong, pulled Xiao Wenshuang to the back of the more secluded team, and whispered about his doubts, but saw Xiao Wenshuang nodding slightly, and said: "Childe, you are right, but if you really want to attack Yihe, you don't necessarily have to alarm Xingqing." ”

Calm and expressionless, Xiao Wenshuang began to tell Yun Chongbo something, which made his eyes open again and his mouth wide open:

"You're saying that you... Oh, no, our Taiping Dao also planned how to blitz Yihe before? ”

With a faint expression, Xiao Wenshuang said, "That's nature." ”

"Knowing that it is seeking skin with the tiger, if you don't pre-make the tiger's strategy first, it will be too careless." As he spoke, his face twitched suddenly, and a chill flashed in his eyes.

Yun Chongbo knew that she must have remembered the matter of Zhang Nanjian's giant gate, smiled bitterly, patted Xiao Wenshuang's forearm, and said, "Don't think about it so much." ”

Xiao Wenshuang was only distracted for a while, and then she retracted her mind and said, "Yes", and whispered the original Taiping Dao strategy.

The scale of Yihe City is not very large, although there are 100,000 agricultural reclamations, but more than ninety percent are scattered in the four fields, the people who live in the city are extremely Liao, except for a few large farmers with a lot of wealth, it is the Quartet business travelers and thousands of military horses stationed here.

"Although Yihe City is not high, but the four fields are not hindered, you can see dozens of miles away, there are guards on the high-rise buildings in the corner of the city day and night, see the enemy shouting, and at the same time there will be flying horses from the north of the city, and the mountain pass will report to Xingqing."

Hearing this, Yun Chongbo couldn't help but say, "What's so difficult about this? Since it is a mountain pass, there is no other way to go, just ambush the people and horses in advance and wait. ”

Xiao Wenshuang nodded and said, "Exactly, so it's not a problem." But with these watchmen, the possibility of stealing the city is extremely small. ”

Yun Chongbo blinked and said, "If it can be arranged in advance, it shouldn't be so difficult to deal with just a few lookouts, and since this place has been peaceful for a long time, everyone must be careless, maybe it's just to say that they sleep on it at night." ”

Xiao Wenshuang said: "Yes, we also thought about it at the beginning. ”

Thinking about it, he said: "The farming households here have lived here for dozens of generations, and outsiders can't get in at all, at most there are three or five spies, but it is impossible to hide thousands of military horses." ”

After a pause, he said: "There is another trouble, this place is Xingqing grain station, when there is nothing to do, it is necessary to send more than 1,000 stone of grain to Xingqing every month, it is to transport cattle and horses, endlessly, Yihe goes to Xingqing more than 200 miles, there is a mountain pass in the middle, the ox cart is generally five to six days, like this spring famine season now, there is no grain in the field, all depend on the treasury to draw, even more powerful, all are flowing water departures, there are dozens of grain teams back and forth every month. ”

Yun Chongbo did the math in his heart, and said while thinking: "Oh... That said... It is necessary to start while the first group of grain trucks has just left, and it must be finished before the next team of grain trucks should go back, so as not to attract the attention of the main force of the Black Water Army on the other side of Xingqing, but in this case...", Xiao Wenshuang has already intercepted and said: "At most, it will be six days." ”

She looked into the distance and said slowly: "The Wanyan family has always governed the country with the rule of military law, and the rules are extremely strict, this strategy was approved by Wu Qu for four months last year, and he promised that there will be no mistakes." ”

"If you want to attack Yihe, the best time is this month, three days later, from March 20 to March 25, it is the most suitable time in the first half of the year."

Her tone was extremely strange, which made Yun Chongbo also frightened, but saw that Xiao Wenshuang had no sadness or joy on his face, and still said slowly: "And the group in charge of actual combat in this plan, Wu Qu also arranged at that time, in the wasteland area of the southeast of Yihe combined with the mountains, you can ambush about 5,000 men and horses, where you can go to Yihe for about forty miles, and the fast horse can rush forward, and you can attack the city in less than an hour, that direction has always been remote, and the population is the least among the three sides, so the price to be paid in this way is the smallest." ”

Yun Chongbo didn't understand the meaning of Xiao Wenshuang's words for a while, and still laughed: "What's the price, it's just to stay in the wild for a few days, at most be careful, don't let the people in the surrounding villages see it..."

Xiao Wenshuang glanced at him and said lightly: "Childe understands?" ”

Yun Chongbo only felt that his mouth was dry, and his throat was tumbling, but he couldn't reach the root of his tongue, and after a long time, he said with great difficulty: "You mean, all the villagers, all..."

Xiao Wenshuang said: "Yes." ”

"Arrange manpower to snipe at Helian Pass, pincer and shoot the watchmen, or even arrange a small number of masters to mix into the city in advance, it is easy to do, but it is only an impact, to really capture Yihe City, there must be more manpower than the defenders in the city, and there is only one way to let such a large number of troops be able to safely lurk on the side of Yihe City and wait."

Yun Chongbo couldn't help but say: "But you can not kill people, you can just lock them up..."

Xiao Wenshuang said slowly: "Childe, that's not possible." ”

"An army is an army, not a jailer, and people may run, they need food, and they need manpower to guard, and they are reliable manpower that must be taken seriously, and it is a great waste, an unbearable waste, for an army that is waiting for the best and most efficient state, and only waiting for a signal in the city."

Her face was extremely calm when she spoke, but Yun Chongbo shivered for no reason, and she was speechless for a while.

saw that Xiao Wenshuang was still muttering, "But, it's still not quite right..."

While the different troops with doubts were advancing towards Yihe according to their own plans, a grand ceremony was taking place in Xingqing City.

The lanterns are colorful, the drums are singing, and the scene is so grand that it can be called "luxury", and the people of all ages in Xingqing City are attracted to the streets to watch this lively play that may not be able to wait for once in hundreds of years.

Since yesterday, with a few orders from the end of Yan Gaizhi, the generals of the Heishui family inside and outside Xingqing City have all mobilized, even with officials of all sizes, and old officials and servants have been dispatched in all directions, and the whole Xingqing City has been turned upside down.

Until this morning, Wan Yan Gai led all the big and small generals of the Yan family to sprinkle out of the east gate, spread the feast for three miles, set up nine brocades, personally worship the Dao Zuo, respectfully and respectfully will be the military department of the Shangshu, Xia Guanda Sima, has been away from Jin for many years Wan Yan family master Wan Yan Qianjun welcomed into the city, and the whole city knew that Yan Qianjun had returned to the west.

In front of all the new ministers and old generals of the Wanyan Army and the people of the city, Wanyan Gaizhi gave the most appropriate and respectful courtesy to the Wanyan Qianjun, and even returned the Wanyan Army Family Master Command and the Blackwater Army Marshal Seal, which represented the supreme power of the Wanyan family and had been in his hands for a long time.

Although no one said it explicitly, it was similar to "Wanyan changed his heart to kill his brother and seize the throne!" Rumors such as "Wanyan is actually afraid of disaster and avoids leaving" have already run many times under the dark water, and that kind of shadow has long become a heart disease for the lower-level officers and even soldiers of the Blackwater Army, and it is precisely because of this that when Wanyan Qianjun took over the seal ribbon with a smile, the long-lasting cheers suddenly gathered like thunder and echoed in the sky above Xingqing City.

… In such excitement, all the focus was on the Wanyan brothers, except for a few people with a heart, few people noticed that among the many retainers behind Wanyan Gai, there was a missing Confucian robe.

"Look, you don't have any influence under the Heishui family, and no one feels strange that you didn't show up on such an occasion."

Wide clothes and clogs, the plain robe on his body is still white and spotless, Wang Siqian is playing with a green and transparent Ruyi in his hand, looking down at the lively scene below, while groaning.

"Isn't namelessness the best way to be a strategist?"

With a faint smile, Guigu Fulong stood sideways behind Wang Siqian, looking respectful, but not condescending.

"Nameless..."

Repeating Guigu Fulong's words, Wang Siqian's expression seemed to be very touched.

"Indeed, there are all the laws in the world, but the nameless is the most difficult..."

let out a deep and incomprehensible sigh, and in the next moment, this fame spread all over the world, and the strong man who really had nothing to do with the word "nameless" had turned his head and looked at Guigu Fulong.

"I'm still interested, though, what exactly do you want to do?"

The place where the two of them are located is a high-rise building in the corner of the city, more than ten feet from the ground, and from this height, people are like ants, horses are like insects, and houses and mansions are just like children's toys.

Wang Siqian's question came suddenly, without any warning, but he couldn't move the mind of Guigu Fulong, smiling, he looked directly at Wang Siqian's eyes, bowed down and said: "Huiren Wang, but there are some snail horn changes, I really don't dare to pollute Wang Qing's listening." ”

The wind blew, lifting the clothes of the two people, looking up from below, all of them looked like immortals, but at this time, no one looked up.

After a pause, Wang Siqian said, "Then it's up to you." As he spoke, he turned back to the city, holding Ruyi in his hand, and looked down at the city.

"For a long time, my Langya Wang family has never participated in any family infighting or the change of the emperor's surname, in the final analysis, it has nothing to do with us."

"As long as others don't hurt the Wang family, the Wang family will not hurt others, in things like chasing deer, the only principle of the Wang family is to support the side that has the hope of a quick victory, and before that, the Wang family will maintain neutrality and will never intervene rashly."

"This is the highest principle of moving with the times, regardless of the same surname, so that the Wang family can be rich and immortal for thousands of years."

"But there are exceptions to this principle, do you understand?"

Speaking of the last sentence, Wang Siqian's voice was already cold, but Guigu Fulong was unconscious, bowed down and smiled: "This is also right and wrong, and the other is also right and wrong, only Huayi's distinction is right and wrong; This is also a weight, and the other is also a weight, only the wind and bones are important... The Langya royal family has adhered to the Great Xia civilization for thousands of years, and those who are evil to Litong Fanbang dare to do it, so there is nothing neutral to talk about, and the younger generations have always known. ”

Wang Siqian nodded slightly and said, "It's good if you know." But seeing that Guigu Fulong was still polite and respectful, no different, he sighed secretly in his heart, and he had nothing to say for a while.

Suddenly, there was another sensation below, and many people shouted wildly, as if they were extremely excited.

Wang Siqian heard it in his ears, and he already understood, and said in amazement: "Wanyan Da Sima actually wants to personally lead the army to take the main force of the Xiang people? ”

Seeing that there seemed to be a smile on Guigu Fulong's lips, anger surged up, and he said in a deep voice: "You really figured it out? ”

Guigu Fulong slowly bowed and said, "Please make it clear to the king." ”

Wang Siqian took a deep breath and said slowly: "The matter of Jinzhou is not related to the interest of the Central Plains. ”

"At the turn of winter and spring, the horses have no fodder grass, the three clans are allied, each with a clever heart, although the sea is immeasurable, but in the face of the intrigue of the three major clans of the Xiang people, it is just an empty honorific title in the middle of the coordination, and it can't really do anything."

"Therefore, we don't want to take the matter of the Wanyan family being empty at the border due to the annihilation of Taiping Road, and being taken advantage of by the Xiang people."

"In the same way, are you loyal to Wanyan Gaizhi, or loyal to Wanyan Qianjun, or are you scheming, that kind of thing... We don't mind. ”

Guigu Fulong said in a low voice: "If you mind, King Wen or the Dragon King will already be cleared of Xia, right?" There was a faint expression of anger in his voice.

Wang Siqian said categorically: "Exactly." ”

After thinking about it, he said: "Confucian disciples are all over the world, and the generals in the army are Zuo Banlongmen, not to mention that the people of the Thirteen Yamen are omnipresent and omnipresent, not to mention that the world is in the heart, and the public opinion is attached to Xia, although Jinzhou goes to China for thousands of miles, but it is only a dance in the palm of the hand, and it can be destroyed by covering your hands, do you understand?" ”

What he said was actually very strange, you must know that Wang Siqian did not have any official position in the court, only a false title, Xi led the fiefdom, but these few words were said in the tone of a minister, as if he was warning a foreign minister.

Guigu Fulong didn't feel strange, but chuckled: "Students read poetry and books at an early age, and they are strict and Huayi's defense, so please rest assured." ”

He also said: "The Heishui family is a species, I don't know the etiquette and enlightenment, in the old days, there were even fathers who died and sons inherited their mothers, and brothers and nephews who died were all bad habits of sons, so they set up a head of the family, often need blood to splash five steps, ugly places, non-Central Plains civilization can imagine, now there are no more than two generations, the old habits still exist, naturally not afraid of this, this is not a brother's jealousy, nor a brother's greed, not a fight, but also a rule." ”

When he said the word "rules", he seemed to be ironic, and suddenly smiled again: "Actually, don't look at people's mouths, what about my Great Xia?" Brothers fight for power, flesh and blood have no relatives, this matter has been known since ancient times, Wang Boya, when he knows the rumor of fighting rice ruler cloth...", but when he was talking, he heard Wang Siqian cough lightly and said: "That's it." But there was something strange in his voice.

His words seemed to arouse Wang Siqian's thoughts, although he stopped drinking, he didn't speak, only paced a few steps on the high platform, leaning on the railing to the wind, as if he had a lot of emotion, but he was speechless.

Fang Dao: "King Wen said that you are a person who can't see through, and also said that today, if you want to fight with your wit, it will probably only be possible if the Tianji Ziwei on Yuntai Mountain or the old man of the Inner Palace Zhong will personally take action." ”

Guigu Fulong bowed and said, "King Wen has won the award." "There was no color on the face.

Wang Siqian said again: "It's just that Tianji Ziwei has the Great Sage of Chaotian behind her, and Gonggong Zhong relies on the Son of Heaven to rely on, but you are just a guest of the Heishui family, do you understand?" ”

Guigu Fulong said respectfully: "Students understand. ”

He said in a deep voice: "Although Jinzhou is secluded, it is also the land of Great Xia, and it is not allowed to be spied on. ”

He also said: "In the next painstaking plan, in fact, it is for the long-term peace and stability of Jinzhou, if the king of the people does not believe it, more than 200 miles north of Xingqing, it is the grain of Jinzhou, and the king of people only needs to take a look, and then he knows that Fulong is painstaking." ”

Wang Siqian frowned and said, "Oh? Seeing that Ghost Valley Fulong stood with a smile, very calmly, Fang sighed: "That's fine." ”

Guigu Fulong suddenly smiled and asked: "Since I saw the king of people, the students have always had a question, can the king of people show me?" ”

Wang Siqian was about to leave at this time, and when he heard his questioning, he didn't look back, but said, "You say." ”

Guigu Fulong arched his hand and said: "Don't dare to ask your seniors, what is it here?" ”

Hearing this question, a sarcastic smile suddenly appeared on Wang Siqian's lips, but he didn't let people see it when he turned his back to Guigu Fulong.

As he walked away slowly, he spoke lightly, but his words didn't seem to have anything to do with Guigu Fulong's questioning.

"The title of Guigu Fulong represents the highest glory among the wise men of Great Xia, and with such a title, any incredible strategy should only be taken for granted, and beyond that, there is still a lot to do."

"Since you respect me as a senior, I will say a few words, with the wisdom of the king, there are few opponents today, but in many cases, the best layout is to foresee the darkness at the beginning, so that there is no need to use wisdom and strategy at all."

"Ancient sages have clouds: those who don't know astronomy and geography can't be generals."

"In the face of the sudden heavy rain without chaos, it is indeed the duty of a military advisor to be able to quickly formulate a strategy related to the rain war, but a truly excellent military advisor will know the future of the wind and rain, and will not let the troops fight this kind of encounter that requires sudden adjustment."

"Among today's new strategists, you and the Cao family can be called the best, and the things you have to learn are the same, in addition to being able to adapt in the wind and rain, you should also learn to anticipate the coming wind and rain and make arrangements in advance."

"In the First Battle of the Three Treasures, the performance of the Cao family's intelligence and decision-making system was simply a mess, if it weren't for Cao Fengxiao's change in front of the formation, Cao Wenyuan was in danger, Cao Zhongkang was in danger, and the Dong family had already made a full contribution, but, can that kind of miracle really be repeated again?"

"The art of war and strategy are valued precisely because of their inadequacy!"

"Fulong's Teng is a major event of the country, which can calm the world and also sow chaos among the people.

As he spoke, Wang Siqian had already gone away, leaving only a somewhat stunned Guigu Fulong, standing on the city tower.

At this time, his face was no longer calm and self-contained, but was replaced by confusion mixed with worry, and if you look closely, you will find that there is still a trace of panic in it.

(When he said something like this, did he know something, or did he see something...) ）

(What kind of wind and rain did I miss?) ）

"There's a saying, actually, I've been saying it to you for a long time."

With one hand on his waist and one foot on a stone by the river, Zhao Feiya turned his back to Yun Chongbo and Xiao Wenshuang, put his right hand on his forehead, and squinted at the horizon in the distance, while saying so idly.

Here, beside a small river, the water is shallow, and it is a good place to get water after the march, but when their leader talks to people here, none of them will be bored enough to squeeze here with water bags.

After two days of marching, Yun Chongbo and the others had escaped from the mountains and began to enter a fairly gentle slope, but in terms of the characteristics of no one and barren, this place was still not much different from before, and Yun Chongbo did not see anyone during the whole day's march. I can only tell jokes with Hua Shengrong, talk about some things with Xiao Wenshuang, or see how the weak girl Xiaoyin is.

Speaking of which, that Zhao Feiya is not bad, seeing that Xiaoyin is alone and weak, he actually sent a few soldiers to take care of her, but there is no need to fall behind or something, but those people somehow, although they are away from the battlefield, they are still cold, as if they can't smile anymore, although Xiaoyin is taken care of by them, but he is still fighting and competing, peeking at Yun Chongbo from time to time, very pitiful.

Yun Chongbo didn't know much about these things, and he felt relieved when he saw that Xiaoyin was already taken care of, and he was even more happy: Xiao Wenshuang seemed to be very satisfied with this arrangement, and in his words, he felt much gentler.

Look at the front is already a horse Pingchuan, if according to Hua Shengrong's saying, hurry up, you can arrive at Yihe City in half a day, Zhao Feiya suddenly passed down the general order, teaching the whole army to camp at this time just after noon, although the two of them were suspicious in their hearts, but they were only hospitable to the Lord, but Fang Zha camped Zhao Feiya had already visited, briefly explained the intention, but wanted to invite Yun Chongbo Xiao Wenshuang to talk to him to no one's place, the two were already very curious in their hearts, and naturally invited them to agree to go here with him.

After saying that this was just an opening statement that made the atmosphere more unpredictable, Zhao Feiya turned around, looked at the two of them, and said slowly: "It's not a secret, Fei Ya is really the general of the Imperial Capital Forbidden Army, and he has a secret decree and a heavy responsibility when he comes to Jinzhou." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, both of them were surprised, not because of his self-confessed identity, but because he actually confided in himself, and because his identity was very different from the identity that the two imagined. Zhao Feiya didn't wait for the two to speak, and continued: "The king's life is here, please forgive Feiya for not being able to confide in what is going on, but this matter is related to today's luck, which is not trivial, and I hope the two of you can help." ”

The faces of the two changed again, Xiao Wenshuang glanced at Yun Chongbo, and said, "Then what is Yihe's matter?" ”

Zhao Feiya arched his hand again and said: "That matter actually has nothing to do with Feiya's errand, it is really Feiya's heart for a while, and I can't bear to see a city ruined." After a pause, he said: "If it is irrelevant, but it may not be, no matter what, there is someone here." ”

Fang Jiang told the ins and outs of the way: it turned out that he was ordered to come west, and he only brought a team of about a few hundred followers, and deliberately chose to enter from the south of Jinzhou for reasons that were inconvenient to tell, and wanted to cross the entire desert and then transfer to Xingqing through Yihe, but found several slaughtered villages along the way, and after careful inspection, he was even more shocked to find that the murderous troops were actually professional elite soldiers with excellent training, not ordinary horse bandits, so he decided to find out, so he scattered his subordinates, Many of his subordinates were originally born in the Western Regions, and some of them were originally from the garrison, and they were all good archers and horses, so they were naturally very convenient, and within a few days, he taught him to discover the traces of Xiang Ren, and then they spied on each other, wanting to find out how many people there were in this army, who was the commander, and what was the purpose.

"The assault from the mountains that day was actually an operation that we had been preparing for a long time, and the original intention was to use the black sailors as bait to lure out the main force of the Xiang people and then attack from behind, but I didn't expect that in the end, we knew that it was just a partial division, and the big leader of the Xiang people's army was not among them."

"But, fortunately, what we captured was not the main force of the Xiang people, because..."

"According to the comprehensive information from several of my subordinates who have been sacrificed, the Xiang Ren troops that entered the southern part of Jinzhou this time and lurked in the wasteland are all cavalry, and their total number is about six thousand, with the strength of my six hundred men, if it is right, it will only be death."

Saying that he was going to die, Zhao Feiya's eyes were full of pride, which made people feel that he had enough confidence to know that if it wasn't for the absolute superiority of the opponent in numbers, it would be impossible to subdue him and his men.

However, compared with that kind of confidence and pride, what Yun Xiao and the others cared about more was the number he provided.

"Six thousand, you say?!"

Shocked and suspicious, Xiao Wenshuang couldn't help but open her mouth to confirm, unlike the ignorant Yun Chongbo, she clearly knew how many mountains and rivers there were and how many checkpoints there were between Yihe and the northern frontier, and it was precisely for this reason that her fear was more than ten times more than that of Yun Chongbo.

(Even if there are 1,000 people, I'm afraid they have exceeded the limit of Xiang Ren's ability to operate, and 6,000 people, it can only be that there is a problem at the top level of the Wanyan family, and only by operating in the scheduling link can there be a chance to put such an army into Jinnan silently, then... ）

Unlike Zhao Feiya, Xiao Wenshuang was already seventy percent sure that the leader of the Xiang people this time was the second disciple of the sea, the young clan master of the Hetao Jin clan, Jin Luonao, and he already knew that Guigu Fulong had some degree of cooperation with him, but in the blink of an eye, Xiao Wenshuang had already made up his mind: "This is definitely the hands and feet of Guigu Fulong, but I don't know what he wants to do." Seeing Zhao Feiya's eyes blazing, he was looking at the two of them, and said, "The two of you should be more familiar with the local characters than me, but are there any clues?" Then he smiled and said, "We are just wanderers, and we know this there." On the other hand, he was already thinking about it, trying to find a better excuse to retire from the camp with Yun Chongbo.

Taiping Dao and the emperor's surname have been entangled for thousands of years, hatred is knotted, and it is not a common day, Xiao Wenshuang is a major general of Taiping Dao, once he hears that this Zhao Feiya is responsible for the secret decree of the inner palace, and the things he plans have the great hope of the emperor, when he really wants to turn his face and kill him or stir it up after taking out the will he bears, where is Sasuke and him?

But he heard Zhao Feiya say slowly: "What is the purpose of these people, Feiya is actually not clear, but according to the situation here, it is estimated that it should be unfavorable to Yihe, and no matter what the military is, the 100,000 people inside and outside Yihe City are always innocent, so they decided to fight." ”

looked at the expressions of the two, and said: "Looking at the appearance of the two, there are some festivals with the court or the Wanyan family, what is it, Fei Ya doesn't want to ask more." ”

Shi Zhengse said: "After finishing the Yan family, he had pacified the civil strife, and now he is guarding Jinzhou, and he has merit in the country, but they belong to the army, they do not understand the governance of the people, and they are also pampered and arrogant, and they are also extremely evil in Jinzhou. ”

When Xiao Wenshuang frowned slightly, Yun Chongbo couldn't help but say, "But... What can you do, if there are really more than 6,000 people? ”

Zhao Feiya smiled slightly and said: "If you can win by relying on more, then there are 100,000 people living in Yihe City now, so why add more garrisons?" ”

He said proudly: "What's more, for a general, with the enemy, defending the land, and protecting the people as the three responsibilities, see the enemy retreating, how can he have the face to eat this money?" ”

Yun Chongbo was stunned in his heart, and was thinking: "These two sentences are so familiar, as if I have heard them there...", but saw Zhao Feiya's eyes flickering slightly, and seemed to be staring, and seemed to be expecting, only to feel that the pride in his heart was agitated, just like the day before yesterday on the mountain, and when he had not thought clearly in his heart, he had already said loudly: "Okay, let's go too!" ”

Zhao Feiya's eyes flashed, and he hugged his fists and said, "Brother Xie Yun's righteousness." Not to mention, just a wave, and then strode away, and never looked back.

After a while, a soft sigh sounded, and it disappeared in a flash, but it came from Xiao Wenshuang's mouth.

Zhao Feiya returned to his tent, sat quietly for a while, and gave a few orders to the sergeant outside the tent.

After waving all his subordinates away, Zhao Feiya paced a few steps in the camp and walked in front of Xiaoyin, but turned around, turned his back to him, hugged his hands in front of his chest, and laughed slowly: "I'm really a little curious." ”

Xiaoyin looked at him and didn't agree. Zhao Feiya said again: "I'm curious, what is so valuable on these two people, so why did you go to the trouble of coming here to cook in person, sister of the Liu family?!" ”

As soon as the words "sister of the Liu family" were spoken, Xiaoyin suddenly changed.

It is still the fine dusty cloak, and it is still the pitiful face, but when Xiaoyin slowly stands up from the chair, her eyes are no longer the cowardice and helplessness that Xiao Wenshuang is familiar with, and what she exudes is no longer the kind of "dazed" and "afraid", instead of the feeling of "concern" or "worry", what is shrouded in Xiaoyin's side at this moment is already a somewhat mysterious, mild, and some majestic mixture.

Looking at Zhao Feiya, Xiaoyin said lightly: "How did you see it?" ”

Her voice has changed, although it is weak, but it is not as like duckweed as before, but more like a handful of fragrant flowers with an iron heart, and under her appearance, there is an unbreakable backbone.

Zhao Feiya raised his head to the sky, snorted, and said: "Beauty is like vanilla, you can't hide yourself, I also recognize what you look like." ”

Xiaoyin chuckled lightly and said, "What a good man, when did you learn to be so flamboyant with Mu Feng." ”

But he said: "Then I didn't say, I can call you your second cousin?" As he spoke, his expression was already a little serious, and the light in his eyes condensed, staring at Zhao Feiya's back.

Zhao Feiya laughed and said, "That's nature, otherwise what do you want?" Kowtow? ”

Suddenly, he said: "Why the hell, you haven't said it yet!" ”

Xiaoyin calmed down, leaned over and smiled: "If the second cousin tells me why you brought someone to Jinzhou at this time, I will tell you why I came here." ”

Zhao Feiya smiled: "Oh, it's so simple? ”

But he said, "That's it, that's it, what's my business." ”

Fang turned around, glared at Xiao Yin and said, ", I just want to say one thing: I don't care what you want to do, it's best to stop it for me immediately." ”

Xiaoyin shook slightly, and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Zhao Feiya smiled coldly and said, "What I mean is that you'd better stop here and stop making decisions about him." ”

Xiaoyin was slightly angry and said, "You want to cover the two of them?" Do you know who they are? ”

Zhao Feiya laughed and said, "Of course I know. ”

"Only then will I preserve them and cooperate with them."

"The core of Taiping Dao... Isn't that the best? After this incident, in the future... When we meet in the future, we will have friendships to climb, so that we will not draw our swords and swords without seeing people, and it will be possible to sit down and talk calmly. ”

"Just now, they have personally agreed to cooperate when they know the identity of our imperial court, and if they can cooperate today in order to defend against the Xiang people, they may be able to establish cooperation again for other topics."

"Actually, the emperor's surname and Taiping Dao have been fighting for thousands of years, and everyone has no sweetness, so they should have found a way to cooperate a long time ago!"

Xiaoyin's face was slightly surprised, and said, "The second cousin has big ambitions!" ”

And he said, "What do you want?" ”

Zhao Feiya smiled coldly and said, "That Yun Chongbo should be an immortal?" In the hearts of the Taiping Daoists, he should be a fairy-like figure, right? Isn't it true that this kind of person will unexpectedly bump into my camp? I will take this opportunity to subdue him, so that his heart will be with me, and I will meet the Taiping Tao in the future. ”

Fang glared at Xiaoyin and said, "So, you'd better not play any tricks secretly, don't mess things up, otherwise, I remember the relationship between our two families, but my golden lance may not be clear." ”

He was murderous when he spoke, it was purely a threat, Xiaoyin's face was full of anger, but she suppressed it, and she owed a blessing, and said: "The second cousin is so ambitious, and the sister admires it." ”

He smiled again: "But, I heard, those who can't give, can't ask for it, that stupid boy himself is afraid that he doesn't know what he wants, second cousin, what method do you plan to use to make him return to you?" ”

Zhao Feiya frowned and said: "Change people's hearts for people's hearts." ”

"I intend to treat him as a brother, courtesy like siblings, kiss like flesh and blood, if necessary, you can follow the example of your predecessors and worship him as a brother with a different surname.

As he spoke, Xiaoyin's eyes were already widening wider and wider, and by the time he finished speaking, he had even opened his mouth wide, and said, "You, you want to treat him as a brother and brother, and you will marry him with a brother with a different surname..."

Zhao Feiya had already walked to the door of the tent at this time, looked out with his hands in front of his chest, and said, "Yes." ”

Xiaoyin's face changed several times, it was extremely weird, and finally pressed it hard, took a few deep breaths, and said with a smile: "Okay, that sister will wish the second cousin success first." ”

Zhao Feiya glanced at her, as if he was a little surprised that she was so easy to speak, but he didn't ask questions, just looked at her deeply, and said, "Very good." As he spoke, he summoned a few soldiers and taught them to return Xiaoyin.

It's just that the soldier just came in, but he paused, and suddenly waved his hand again: "You go out first." ”

He said to Xiaoyin again: "You can mix around him like this, it must have taken a lot of effort, and the price is about a long time since you have been in contact with the people of the Liu family, right?" ”

Xiaoyin chuckled on her knees, but did not answer him.

Zhao Feiya ignored her, and only smiled: "Since you agreed to my business, my brother can't treat you badly, so I'll send you an information." ”

He Zhengse said: "Actually, I'm not sure about this news, just forget if you hear it." ”

Fang Dao: "My second uncle may be coming back." After a pause, he added, "To be precise, he may have already passed through Tangzhou at this time." ”

Xiaoyin was startled, and when he was about to ask, Zhao Feiya laughed and called his subordinates in again, so Xiaoyin stopped talking, gently bowed his clothes, and went with the sergeants.

At night, the half-moon hung indifferently in the sky, with few stars, twinkling in the cloudless night sky, emitting a cold light of dark blue.

The wind is not too strong, but the night wind is always cold, especially in high places.

"Bang, Bang, Bang..."

In the sound of bangzi, a dark yellow "air death wind" was carried in front of the team, leading a team to yawn for a long time, and about 20 soldiers lazily climbed up the city tower.

Above, there are the guards who don't even want to open their eyes, one by one, staggering, a few of them have to rely on weapons or pillars around them to stand, obviously just woken up by someone, especially in their mouths are not clean scolding: "Your mother, it's getting later and later, there is a kind of you don't come to change the guard tomorrow, let grandpa sleep well..." was kicked out before he was sprinkled clean at the little peach..."There was a burst of laughter when he said that, and the officer was helpless, just said in a loud voice: "I only know that there are poor mouths, there are really people who steal the city, and you are mistaken, and then you know how to write dead words..."

In the chaos, the two teams of sergeants finally began to settle the value one by one according to the rules: it didn't matter, it was just some official articles, most of them were nonsense, these people were all old soldiers, and no one took it to heart, just grinning and dealing with it, just taking advantage of this to walk back and forth on the city tower, and the new value was removed from the cold, and the substitution was just to catch up with the sleepiness.

To say that among the officers and soldiers on duty on the city tower, the most bitter is the "lookout" who climbs on the tall wooden building and squatting, not to mention the hard work of ascending, and the wind comes from all sides, such as a knife to remove the bones, and can not close his eyes when he is extremely sleepy, and he can not learn from other people to eat and drink, and he has always been the official face of the rules, when he is the healthiest among all the people, the person with the best eyesight, in fact, he has always been a novice coward, and no third person will do it, and it generally can't squat for long, ninety percent of the nine is still yin and yang, and it won't take long to slip down, and tonight is no exceptionWhen the officer patrolled to the bottom of the wooden building, he saw at a glance that the soldier was wrapped in a cotton robe and leaned against the flagpole and slept soundly, and when he didn't realize that the fire was burning again, he kicked it and scolded: "Fuck you are looking for death, I don't know that the adults have set a lot of new rules, they must be strictly governed and regulate everything, you have to let you know like this, at least fifty military sticks..."

Since he was a pawn, he must be the most incapable of backstage among the pawns, so he didn't dare to learn from the people in front of him, just touched his buttocks, and didn't dare to say a word, so he led the pawn who came to change the guard and hurriedly climbed up to the wooden building, but, halfway through the climb, he couldn't help it, and secretly scolded: "Your grandma's, if the adults know, it must be your report, a fart official, and the majesty of the mother..." There is no one like Lao Tzu who has drunk the northwest wind and the eyes of the wild wolf all night here..."Suddenly realized: "The strange rules are changed and changed, and it will always be our bad luck, and among the people who set the rules, there has never been a brother who has suffered here..."

While complaining in their hearts, the two of them had climbed to the top, and the two of them picked up the brazier according to the rules, squinted into the distance, and checked whether the big gong on the corner was okay, and the previous pawn turned around and wanted to go down, while still whispering in his mouth: "If you want to go down to sleep later, lean to the west, the wall has been urinated by a few bastards during the day, and it stinks tight..." There are not even a ghost at this time, and in the spring famine, even the wolves are starving to death, so what's the chaos..."As he spoke, he turned around and squinted to take a closer look, but he also saw that something seemed to be wriggling in the dead darkness.

After the delay of the two, some people below were already impatient, and a few of them had opened their throats and scolded: "What do you look at, can you still see that you can't do it?" Someone else said something cool and not yin and yang: "Otherwise, how to say that the pawn is the soup in our soldiers, every time you want to leave, they drag it to the end..."

Suddenly, there were several strange noises, and the scolding was lowered.

The officer suddenly felt that something was wrong, turned around sharply, and said as he touched the saber in his waist, "What...", but before he could say the word "human", he snorted and froze.

The two guards above knew that something was wrong at this time, and screamed, and at the same time pounced on the corner to grab the big gong, but before they could rush forward, they felt a pain in their legs, and fell to the ground, and saw that their thighs had already taught a long arrow to penetrate, and they were nailed to the wood!

"Are you like this, are you the so-called elite soldiers of the Xia people?"

With a contemptuous and somewhat sentimental sigh, the enemy finally appeared, but there was only one: his whole body was hidden under the black armor, and he slowly walked out of the shadows of the castle tower, carrying a longbow, and in his left hand a shining saber, blood still dripping from the blade, but in his right hand he held the booklet, and he did not know what it was.

"Ugh..."

Sighing softly, he walked slowly forward, but he did not let go of any corpse, he would always step on it, and when he stepped on it, there would be the sound of Yin Yin bones shattering.

Hearing the sound of blood-stained footsteps gradually approaching, the two guards trembled non-stop, knowing that today was not spared, and they even forgot that "you can still shout loudly".

But suddenly, a hand helped them up, and even spread something in front of their faces, and said lightly: "Tell me, what is this?" ”

The old man trembled and said, "I, I can't read..."

The owner of the hand laughed and said, "Yes, I forgot." Then he lifted it up, read a few lines, and said, "What is this?" The two guards on duty understood it, and they both felt nonsense, but they didn't dare not answer, and said cautiously: "Yes, it is the booklet of the rules of our rotation to guard the city..."

The man: "Oh? ”

And he said, "This thing is new." As he spoke, he turned a few pages, and said, "There is a seal in the back, is it something that has just come out?" ”

The attendant said, "Yes." ”

The man chuckled and flipped through again, and said, "The seal was added by Xingqing, and it looks like it was pushed down from above?" ”

The duty officer had a look on his face and said: "No, it was set by our side, and when the boss saw that it was good, he set up a rule to push, and at that time he also rewarded our master, and even we mixed a meal of wine and meat." ”

The man laughed and said, "What?! ”

"Then, can you tell me—" As he spoke, his tone had gradually become gloomy and stern.

"Why, no one follows the rules you set yourself?!"

As he spoke, his fingers pinched a few lines on the booklet.

"If all of these rules had been followed, I would have been discovered by now, but why, from officers to non-commissioned officers, none of you really did it?"

The two guards looked at each other, and they really couldn't think of words to reply to him for a while, and after a while, one of them said: "However, these rules, these rules were originally formulated for the lords above, and the lord who made the rules has been promoted, and if this is not enforced, who will pay attention to him..."

The man said lightly, "Oh? ”

He stood up, exhaled a long breath of turbidity, and said: "That's right, yin and yang are violated, feminine and cunning, that is the habit of the Xia people, it is not surprising, but..."

As he spoke, he suddenly turned around, staring at the two of them with blazing eyes, his expression extremely majestic.

"But why are you doing that?"

"Isn't the man of the Heishui family also a son of the grassland? Are you not also a people on horseback? Why, in just one generation, you can completely learn these things from the Xia people, and even be even more 'excellent' than them?! ”

"In the life of the Xia people, what is there that can make your Black Water Clan degenerate and assimilate so quickly?!"

His voice was not very loud, but the anger in it was clear at a glance, and it could not be clearer, the two guards trembled with fear, and could not answer.

The man did not ask any more questions, but looked left and right, and took the big gong hanging from the horn in his hand. Said lightly: "This is used to call the police?" You're doing your duty, and you're just thinking about knocking on it. As he spoke, he suddenly raised the gong and struck hard!

On this quiet night, Wan Lai was silent, and his hand strength was extremely great, and the sound was like thunder, and even the gong surface was shattered, but... But there was no response.

After a long time, a few faint scolding voices came from under the city tower:

"If you're drunk, you won't go to your mother, catch a gong and hit something, don't let people sleep, *..."

"That's exactly what happened..."

With a wry smile, the man flipped the booklet in his hand and read softly:

"As soon as the gong is sifted, it is the third-level police order of Tianzi, and all the guards under the city should go to the city; The second sieve of the gong, no matter when, someone should report to the master of the horse, and at the same time check the setting of the rolling wood and stones; Gong three sieves... Forget it, there's no point in reading it anymore. ”

He stuffed the booklet into his bosom, but he suddenly remembered something, and asked the guard, "This place is supposed to be equipped with all kinds of fortifications, right?" What about the rolling wood? What about the stones? ”

The two watchmen opened their mouths and stammered for a while, and the younger one finally couldn't help but scold: "There is a ball of rolling wood and stones, the wood has been sold, and the stones have all become the foundations of our thousands of homes..."

The man was stunned for a moment, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, the laughter was extremely clear, but it stopped in a flash, and he smiled and said, "Don't teach people to ask Hou again." "Sure enough, there was some movement down there.

He lifted the two guards, leaned against the wooden railing, faced the darkness outside the city, and smiled: "Keep your eyes open, you can see clearly." As he spoke, he shook his right hand, only to hear the sound of "blazing", and a spark cannon shot up into the sky, exploding a large ball of fire in the night sky, and even the starry moon and sky light were suppressed for a while.

Beneath the blazing firelight, the man sighed softly and removed his helmet, revealing the young and especially innocent faces.

(Master...) No, Great Khan, in the face of such a depraved and corrupted army, I am confident that I will finally conquer it, no matter how long it takes, I am confident that it can be done, but, at that time, will we, the blue wolves and eagles of the grassland, also fall in front of the Xia people's flower world like the Blackwater people, and finally become a part of the Xia people, and even become their prey in front of the new foreign races? ）

(In that case, wouldn't it be better for us to stay on the prairie from the beginning?) ）

Thinking hard, he opened his hands to the night sky, and silently squirmed his lips with a very reverent expression.

(Great Immortal Heaven, please give me wisdom so that I can see all this and make decisions!) ）

No matter how derelict he is, it is still too dazzling to get such as "fireworks", which is impossible to ignore, the lights are lit up little by little, the impact of armor leather weapons, nervous footsteps and reprimands are constantly ringing, but, ignoring all this, Jin Luo brain just leaned on the edge of the flag fight, staring intently at the darkness in the distance,

Soon, the others began to notice the strangeness in the darkness.

The "movement" that had previously attracted the attention of the guards had gradually turned into a "commotion" after the fireworks soared into the sky, and although everything hidden behind the deep black curtain could not be seen clearly, the low sound of horses' hooves like thunder still came from the darkness in bursts, tearing the "tranquility" to pieces.

Subsequently, the fire appeared.

The lighting of the first torch is like a bean candle that can be blown out in one breath in the darkness, and it cannot even illuminate one's surroundings, but when one fire becomes ten, when ten fire heads expand into hundreds, and when the fire spreads rapidly to both sides at a speed like the wind, it has the same shocking feeling as at the beginning of the creation of the world.

Soon, thousands of torches were raging from the distant horizon, burning into an overwhelming line of fire, sweeping everything away.

At this time, the vanguard has rushed to the place where Yihe does not reach the two arrows, and it can be clearly seen that it is all cavalry, all of them stop at the horses with their legs, hold torches high in their right hands, and hold shining sabers or spears that can be thrown in their left hands, and the firelight illuminates those fierce faces, which have obvious characteristics different from those of the Xia people.

"Xiang Ren, it's Xiang Ren who killed him!"

Like the expansion of the firelight, even faster than that, the screams of horror came one after another, connecting into a huge "chaos", and soon, the entire Yihe was covered.
