In the camp of Xiangjun, Duan Lang did not let the guards practice in the past two days. The stove camp has even improved the food, not only has meat for every meal, but also distributes a jar of old wine for each meal.

The guards of the battalion were well fed and drunk, and they bragged happily to each other. From their expressions, there was no melancholy or worry. But everyone knows in their hearts that Melan City is in danger and may enter a decisive state at any time. Today is full of food and drink, and tomorrow may be the separation of yin and yang. This group of guards from all directions is no longer a recruit who has never seen blood, from the lower pass to Jingshan City, and then after the repeated battles in Melan City, these young guards have become accustomed to smiling in blood.

Duan Lang led the generals to inspect the various camps, the big battle was imminent, and all the horses were accumulating strength. Duan Lang appeased the guards and called on all battalions to learn from the 8,000 dead soldiers brought by Zhou Long. If all the soldiers and horses were as tenacious as 8,000 dead soldiers, let alone the small city of Molan, Duan Lang would dare to wave his army to directly take the mainland of the two countries in Western Vietnam.

After inspecting around, Duan Lang and the others returned to the tent. Zhou Long, whose injuries were not yet healed, also came to the tent.

"Duan Shuai, Zhou Long asks to return to the team." Zhou Long knew that the big war was imminent, and he had no heart to continue to recuperate.

Duan Lang glanced at Zhou Long, "Bring it." ”

"What?"

"Ankang's approval, without the approval of the military medical officer, Ben Shuai can't let you return to the team."

Zhou Long stomped his foot helplessly, "Okay, I'll let that kid approve when I go back." ”

"Aaron, I warn you, don't persecute people, otherwise it's useless to have a approval." Duan Lang said with a straight face.

"If you don't agree, then I'll go to Master Strategist."

"It's useless, Mingyue and Lao Zhang went to the camp of Yixiang City, if you think she will agree, then wait for her to talk." Duan Lang said with a smile.

Zhou Long was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly, "Duan Shuai, Lord Military Master shouldn't take risks, having Lord Shangguan come out is enough to show our sincerity and attention to them." Although the soldiers and horses of Yixiang City are under the banner of resisting the enemy, the people's hearts are sinister and have to be guarded against. ”

"Don't worry, they don't dare to do anything to Mingyue, but this Fan Jiachang, I wonder why Deguang let him take charge of the army? When I was in Kyoto, I had met this person once or twice, and at that time he was just a chief of guard under Prince Hong. I didn't expect that to this day, I can actually cover the sky under the Deguang seat. ”

Zhou Hu sneered disdainfully, "A general is incompetent and exhausts thousands of troops, Deguang himself is a straw bale, what other talents can he have." ”

Zhou Long said, "Second brother, don't say that, Fan Jiachang has been able to serve by Prince Hong's side for so long, and Prince Hong's old fox's tricks have been learned a little." When I went to Yixiang City to persuade Deguang to send troops, this Fan Jiachang was pushing back. This person is not like the veteran Sun Gang, at least Sun Gang is still worried about the people of the world, but Fan Jiachang gives me the feeling that he only cares about the immediate interests. So I felt a little unsteady for him to lead the troops to Melan City. What's more, although Fan Jiachang was born in martial arts, he has never been in charge of military power, and he doesn't know anything about the art of war. ”

Duan Lang said with a smile, "When we formed the army of Lidu City, weren't they all wild roads. After years of fighting and learning, I can be regarded as knowing the wonderful use of chariots, cavalry and foot combat. At the beginning, we people blindly killed and beat and ran away after the fight, but we didn't think about it so much at that time. ”

Zhou Hu also laughed and said, "Just as the so-called fist punches killed the master, when we crossed the desert, we disrupted the entire layout of Mokun at once. Don't look at the fact that we didn't have many soldiers and horses at that time, but we were able to completely cut off the supply line in Nanping. Therefore, Mokun had to order the withdrawal of troops. ”

Duan Lang also said with emotion, "Yes, at that time, we were constantly attacking as auxiliary forces, but we were able to pry the opponent's entire layout plan. Now it's different, we have changed from support to main attack, and the other party has put the whole power on us. If you want to use the fast attack of the year to invade the other party, you can't solve the trend of the war. However, this time, if the Elephant City army can play our role back then, it is very important for the overall situation. The purpose of Mingyue's trip is also to hope that Fan Jiachang can cooperate with the battle according to our layout plan. ”

The veteran Yan Facheng shook his head, "Duan Shuai, we can't pin our hopes on them. I think that this Fan Jiachang led his troops here to come here just to fight for merit in troubled waters. The capitals of the world have pledged allegiance to the divine power, and if the Elephant City does not make any movement, all the people in the world will forget about them. Deguang sent troops to Melan City at this time, but he did not necessarily dare to fight. Once we win the whole battle, of course they will come to get a piece of the pie. In case we lose, those guys will be able to run faster than the rabbits. ”

Duan Lang nodded silently, "If it's just a share, Mingyue is worried that Fan Jiachang will take advantage of the fire to rob and outflank us together." ”

Zhang Qifeng said, "Duan Shuai, why don't I take a team of soldiers and horses and directly destroy Fan Jiachang." Keeping Fan Jiachang behind us, there are more than enough successes and failures, and we are distracted to guard against them. ”

Yan Facheng shook his head and said, "The difficulty is that they are also under the banner of resisting the enemy, if we make the first move, it will be difficult to block the mouths of the people in this world." ”

Duan Lang looked at the generals, "Let's wait for Mingyue to come back, our current focus is still on Molan City." Last time I burned their granary, I feel that this Mokun Lu Mu will not be calm for long. If it's fast, it's ten days, and if it's slow, it's no more than a month, and Mokun Lu Mu is bound to fight to the death with us. ”

As soon as this important battle was mentioned, everyone's minds were drawn back from the army of Yixiang City. After all, the Nanping and West Vietnamese coalition forces are the focus, and Fan Jiachang's side is just a group of rabble in the eyes of the generals.

Just as Duan Lang and others were analyzing, Tai Mingyue and Zhang Ruming also came to the camp of Yixiang City. Fan Jiachang did not look for a dilapidated county town to be stationed, but set up camp thirty miles southeast of Xiangxiang County.

Knowing that Shangguan Xuanwu and Shantai Mingyue came to visit, Fan Jiachang couldn't help but be stunned. He originally thought that Duan Lang would send Zhou Long to discuss the defense plan, but he didn't expect that it would be the famous female military master Yutai Mingyue who came in person, which made Fan Jiachang a little surprised. As for Shangguan Xuanwu, Fan Jiachang didn't want to see him at all.

Fan Jiachang led his subordinates out of the camp to greet him. Anyway, the bright moon of Lantai is famous in all directions, and Fan Jiachang also wants to get in touch with this female military division. When he was in the Prince's Mansion back then, he could only watch from afar, and he was not worthy of talking to Tantai Mingyue at all. Since there is such an opportunity, Fan Jiachang also wants to show his style.

Tai Mingyue and Zhang Ruming came to the outside of the camp under the protection of the pro-soldier team, and as soon as the team stopped, Zhang Ruming licked his belly and walked out of the car tent. Tantai Mingyue did not take a car, but rode a war horse in military uniform. Looking at the heroic appearance of the bright moon in the mountains, Fan Jiachang couldn't help but sigh that the heavens were too good to Duan Lang, such a strange woman with a sword heart would actually be included in Duan Lang's account, which was simply enviable, jealous and a little unwilling.

Fan Jiachang greeted him with a smile on his face, hugged his fists and said, "Generalissimo Fan Jiachang of the Great Xia Soldiers and Horses, greet Her Royal Highness Princess Mingyue of Tangtai." ”

Fan Jiachang regards himself as a marshal of soldiers and horses, but he is known as a princess, which means to tell Tangtai Mingyue that I am the orthodox in the world, and you are just a wandering and scattered soldier. To be a princess is to respect your royal status.

Without waiting for Yutai Mingyue to speak, Zhang Ruming waved his little hand and looked at everyone and said, "People of the gods, this Heavenly Master welcomes you to the realm of Melan City on behalf of the gods. Bless you, Ni Ni Da! ”

After Zhang Ruming finished speaking, he looked at Fan Jiachang, and continued in a condescending tone, "Xiao Fan, I didn't expect us to meet again here." How is Deguang doing? Do you pray to the gods every day? ”

Fan Jiachang's smile froze on his face, if it weren't for his identity, he really wanted to step forward and slap this dead fat man a few times.

"Shangguan Heavenly Master, please pay attention to your words. Your Majesty is the lord of Great Xia, and no one can be humiliated. Fan Jiachang said angrily.

Zhang Ruming smiled, "Of course, not to mention His Majesty Deguang, even if it is a peddler and a pawn, you can't be humiliated at will." In the eyes of the gods, everything under heaven is equal. God's blessings shine throughout the world, and will not be biased because of the level of status. You can rest assured that this Heavenly Master will tell the gods that he will never bless Deguang because of his royal status. ”

Fan Jiachang lost the smile on his face, if his eyes could kill, he would have cut the dead fat man in front of him with a thousand knives.

"Shangguan Xuanwu, if you dare to speak wildly again, don't blame Marshal Ben for being polite."

Zhang Ruming pursed his lips disdainfully, "Then you tell this Heavenly Master, why are you welcome?" ”

Fan Jiachang gritted his teeth angrily, he really had no way to deal with this scoundrel. Not to mention that this is Molan City, even in Yixiang City, he has no way to take the official Xuanwu. This guy has the aura of a god, and he is supported by a powerful army of Lidu City behind him. It's very simple to kill him, but no one can afford to retaliate afterwards. Deguang didn't dare to kill Shangguan Xuanwu, and he Fan Jiachang didn't dare to do so.

Tantai Mingyue looked at Fan Jiachang with a smile, she didn't want Zhang Ruming to be too stiff, so she stepped forward and said.

"Master Fan, we have come from afar, you won't just talk outside the camp."

Fan Jiachang was stunned, and said down the slope, "Yes, yes, Princess Mingyue has worked hard all the way, please inside." Come and lead the horse for Princess Mingyue. ”

Fan Jiachang glanced at Zhang Ruming, and said in his heart Lao Tzu only said that please come to Tai Mingyue, see that you are embarrassed to enter Lao Tzu's camp. Fan Jiachang underestimated the thickness of Zhang Ruming's face, when he pretended to be a miracle doctor in the rivers and lakes, he didn't know how many people beat his nose and face were swollen. This embarrassment was just a slight smile in Zhang Ruming's eyes. Without waiting for Mingyue to be led forward, Zhang Ruming took the lead in walking inside.

Fan Jiachang said in his heart that he had never seen such a shameless person, but he couldn't let the guards drive Zhang Ruming out. In anger, Fan Jiachang could only accompany Tai Mingyue to the handsome tent.

Everyone sat down, and Mingyue glanced at the marching map hanging in the tent, and said softly.

"Lord Fan, on the occasion of the decisive battle of Molan City, Lord Fan can lead his troops to come to support, and Duan Lang, the husband of Mingyue, will thank all the soldiers in the camp."

Fan Jiachang said arrogantly, "Princess Mingyue, you can't say that. This world is Your Majesty's country, and it should be said that this Lord thanked all the righteous people for being able to care about the world and contribute to the court. ”

When Zhang Ruming heard this, his face suddenly drooped, "I said Xiao Fan, I don't like to hear you say this." In addition to Kyoto and Ilcan, what castles have pledged allegiance to Tokumitsu? As long as you say it, this Heavenly Master will give him these cities on behalf of the gods. If not, don't you say big things and flash your tongue, and return the world to Your Majesty's country? They are all people of the gods, and even Ta Deguang is no exception. ”

"Shut up!" Fan Jiachang couldn't help but shout angrily, and said in his heart that the rebellion of these cities is not all done by your kid.

Fan Jiachang looked at Mingyue in Tai, "Princess Mingyue, this commander came to fight against the enemy, is this how you treat friendly troops with such sincerity?" ”

Yutai Mingyue sneered, "You still know that you are an ally?" Since this army division came to your camp, you Fan Jiachang have been aggressive, and you have no intention of cooperating at all. The army of my capital city went all the way north from Huining City, and the Mokun Lu Mu who was killed hid in Molan City and did not dare to come out. It's good that you have become a righteous man when you exit? Fan Jiachang, it's not that I underestimate you, even your master, Prince Hong, didn't dare to speak wildly in front of this military division when he was alive. My title of Mingyue Military Division is not self-proclaimed, this is the military division of soldiers and horses that Delong worships personally. Even if I don't value this false name, my husband is also the protector of the country of the two emperors of Yuning Delong. ”

Tantai Mingyue stood up as she spoke, and said angrily, "If you want to be sincere, it depends on your performance." Sincere cooperation, we welcome, otherwise, we will see each other. Lord Shangguan, let's go! ”

Fan Jiachang opened his mouth in astonishment, and was stunned on the spot. Since Deguang became the emperor, he Fan Jiachang has covered the sky with one hand in Yixiang City, and he greets him with a smile everywhere. But in the territory of Melan City, no one values his authority. Fan Jiachang originally wanted to put up a shelf to give the other party a dismount, but the words of "soldiers and horses meet each other" in the Ming Moon of Tantai couldn't help but make Fan Jiachang break out in a cold sweat.

"Princess Mingyue, oh no, Mingyue Military Division, please stay!" Fan Jiachang hurriedly shouted.

Lantai Mingyue turned around elegantly, looked at Fan Jiachang with a sneer, and mocked, "What, you still want to leave this military division here?" That's good, this military division gives you this opportunity. From here to the gate of the camp, if you dare to order to take down your own division, then I really admire you. ”

"No, no, don't misunderstand. Before coming, His Majesty repeatedly explained that he must get along well with Duan Lang's department. At the moment of the great enemy, we should be unanimous in our efforts to the outside world. As for the attribution of fame, can it be discussed after the war? ”

Fan Jiachang is worthy of being the one who has served Prince Hong, and immediately put on a smiling face and bowed down his straight waist. Although he had 10,000 impulses in his heart to kill Tangtai Mingyue, Fan Jiachang understood that if he couldn't bear it, he would make a big plan. Once it arouses the vigilance of Yutai Mingyue, it is likely to be a big deal.

Seeing Fan Jiachang put down his frame, Yutai Mingyue gave Zhang Ruming a glance, and the two sat down again. Fan Jiachang now knew the power of Tai Mingyue, and he didn't dare to call himself a superior again. In Fan Jiachang's eyes, Tangtai Mingyue is different from Shangguan Xuanwu, the dead fat man is just quick to speak, but Tangtai Mingyue has a heavy army, and his words and demeanor are full of murderous energy.

Now that Fan Jiachang has softened, Tantai Mingyue is no longer vindictive. In a 'friendly' atmosphere, the two sides began to talk about the next battle of Melan. The bright moon of the platform first showed the deployment of the army of the capital city, of course, this is only part of it.

Tantai Mingyue pointed to the marching map, "Lord Fan, my army in the capital city has been deployed in the front, but the left flank is very weak, I hope that Lord Fan's soldiers and horses can set up camp in this place and block the road for Mokun Lu Mu to go south to Gansheng City." When it comes to the decisive battle, you can also kill it from the side to assist our capital army to win the decisive battle in one fell swoop. ”

Fan Jiachang frowned and looked at the marching map, in fact, he didn't know anything about the marching defense, but he just pretended to be very expert. Fan Jiachang said in his heart that no matter where the defense is, when the time comes, Lao Tzu will turn against him and see what way you have to live. Anyway, the people of the world have not seen it with their own eyes, and when the time comes, it is completely possible to blame Duan Lang for being blind and arrogant and causing the defeat of the army.

"Mingyue Military Division, is this position a little farther away from the battlefield?" Fan Jiachang asked.

"Master Fan, I'm thinking about you. If your troops are too close, Mokun Lu Mu is likely to attack you before the big battle. We were attacked a few days ago and had to be guarded against. Unless, of course, you have a secret tune, then they certainly won't sneak up. ”

Fan Jiachang's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Mingyue Military Division, this joke can't be made. Okay, our army will be ready to go, and everything will go according to plan. ”

Tantai Mingyue smiled slightly, "Master Fan, it's just a joke." The blood of the Great Xia compatriots is thicker than water, how could they do such a thing that has lost their conscience. ”

"Hehe, Your Majesty is the emperor of Great Xia, how can he collude with Mokun Lu Mu. My emperor cares about the world, and he can't wait to drive the foreign invaders out of the land of Great Xia as soon as possible. Fan Jiachang said weakly.

"In that case, then let's settle it. When the time comes, I will send scouts to contact Lord Fan every day and report the battle situation in a timely manner. Lord Shangguan, the hour is not early, we should go back too. Yutai Mingyue said and stood up.

"This can't be done, Mingyue Military Division came from afar, how can Fan do his best to be a landlord." Fan Jiachang said politely.

Yutai Mingyue looked at Fan Jiachang, "There are still many affairs in the army, and this army division does not dare to delay." If Lord Fan insists on inviting, you can ask Lord Shangguan to stay and accompany you for a few days. ”

"Uh~this~."

Fan Jiachang said in his heart, you can pull it down, how many days will it be? At the end of the day, if you don't kill him, you have to be angry with him.

Zhang Ruming snorted, "Lao Tzu has no appetite, go, go back." ”

Fan Jiachang didn't dare to continue to stay, and respectfully sent the two out of the camp. It wasn't until Tai Mingyue's team gradually moved away that Fan Jiachang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was the first time he had direct contact with Tantai Mingyue, and Fan Jiachang knew how powerful Tantai Mingyue was. Fortunately, he changed his attitude in time, otherwise once he aroused the suspicion of Yutai Mingyue, it would be a big deal.

On the way back to the camp, Zhang Ruming stretched out his head and cursed endlessly. Yutai Mingyue didn't respond, and all she had in her mind was the picture of the camp in Yixiang City just now. Tai Mingyue's face gradually turned cold, and Fan Jiachang's clumsy acting skills did not hide from Tai Mingyue's eyes. Although Mingyue still didn't know what Deguang had to do with Mokun Lu Mu, she was already sure that the purpose of Fan Jiachang's trip was definitely not to fight against foreign criminals.

Tangtai Mingyue felt a chill in her heart, there were still more than 200,000 soldiers and horses in Molan City, which was already unbearable for her. Now there are 70,000 troops behind it, although the combat effectiveness is not strong, but after all, it is a regular standard equipment. If you really enter the decisive battle, even a straw may crush the entire beam. How to deal with Fan Jiachang's soldiers and horses put Tantai Mingyue in a dilemma.
