Text Section 163 The shadow of the strong

In Landu City, Fang Yan looked at the letter that Duan Lang passed to her, the familiar handwriting, and even the paper had Duan Lang's breath. Knowing that Zhang Ruming was going to marry Azhu, Fang Yan was also happy for them. However, she can't leave Landu City yet.

Fang Jiye has been in a state of illness since the last time he was in a hurry. At the moment of the great enemy, although Fang Yan, who is a child, misses Duan Lang very much, she has to take on the responsibility of taking care of her father. What's more, Duan Lang told her in his letter that he was going to lead his men and horses to Landu City after Zhang Ruming's wedding and start a frontal battle with the Western Vietnamese army. Fang Yan also understood that passive defense was not as good as active attack, and only by constantly consuming the opponent's men and horses could the Xiyue army be driven out of the Two Realms Mountain.

Fang Jiye finished drinking the medicinal soup, and the complexion on his face was slightly obscure. However, Fang Jiye saw Duan Lang's suggestion on the layout of the city defense, and the vicissitudes of life finally showed a long-lost smile on his face.

"Girl, this kid Duan Lang is becoming more and more in line with the old man's appetite. is still a father with vision, and at first glance, he found that this kid is extraordinary. After this battle is over, it's time for the two of you to get married. Fang Jiye looked at the letter and said with relief.

Fang Yan's face turned slightly red, and she snorted coquettishly, "Obviously, your daughter's vision is good, but you almost married your daughter to Zhao Zhuofeng." ”

Speaking of this, Fang Yan's heart moved, "Daddy, if you really marry your daughter to Zhao Zhuofeng, then will you take the western camp to make the enemy of Great Xia?" Or, like the Marquis of Xining, lead foreign enemies into the customs? ”

Fang Jiye was slightly stunned, sighed and shook his head, "I really thought about this matter for my father." If there is really a marriage contract with Xining Hou, even if our family breaks the contract, we can't be scolded by the world. ”

Fang Yan smiled slyly, "There will be no such ending at all, if you really marry your daughter to Zhao Zhuofeng, I will run away from home and elope with Duan Lang." ”

Fang Jiye laughed happily, no matter what, he felt that choosing Duan Lang was a very correct decision. To say that the previous Duan Lang was still a hairy boy in his eyes. But now, Fang Jiye has to admit that Duan Lang, who is less than twenty, is definitely a genius. With the current soldiers and horses of the capital city, it can be said that it is enough to fight against any big battalion in Great Xia. Even this war in Great Xia will make Duan Lang's name spread all over the world. When the time comes, he, who is a father-in-law, will also have an extremely glorious face.

In the city of Landu, some loopholes in the arming began to be adjusted. In the Xiyue camp opposite, Han Pingzi was anxiously waiting for news from Lu Mu.

Lu Mu's secret agent who delivered the news to Han Pingzi was a fast horse, and it would take three days at the earliest. And Da Fei went from Lidu City to Landu City, it was only three hours. In this regard, Duan Lang has an absolute advantage. Therefore, Duan Lang was not worried about a large-scale attack on Landu City. With more than 100,000 men in the city, he believed that resistance for a few days should not be a problem.

Han Pingzi was very worried about Lu Mu's safety, especially when Lu Mu mobilized twenty or thirty good players, Han Pingzi was afraid that Lu Mu would be young and impulsive and reckless. Even if he hit Lidu City hard, he didn't want Lu Mu to have an accident. Han Pingzi knew that he was old, and young people like Lu Mu were the future of Xiyue. If he loses Lu Mu because of a small gain or loss, Han Pingzi is not willing to exchange this price.

In the capital, the people of the whole city hung festival lanterns at the door. Although it was during the great funeral of Emperor Yuning, the people of the capital city only had Shangguan Xuanwu and Duan Lang and others in their eyes. After all, at the moment of life and death, only they are fighting for the capital city. It is not the deceased Emperor Yuning who can help them protect their homeland, but the bloody men of Lidu City.

Zhang Ruming was dressed in a bright red robe, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was the groom's official. Compared with some time ago, Zhang Ruming seems to be a different person. In those days, he ran away as soon as he saw Azhu, but now it's good, his mouth is like smeared with honey, and he keeps shouting 'Zhu Zhu ~ Zhu Zhu ~' all day long.

In the palace, Duan Lang ordered people to go to the camp and notify the generals of each battalion to come to discuss the matter. Tomorrow is the day of Zhang Ruming's wedding, and Duan Lang must arrange everything in advance.

In the lobby, Li Jianshan looked at Zhang Ruming with a happy face, and couldn't help but joke, "Lord Shangguan, I will be the groom's official tomorrow, do you want to learn from Duan Lang tonight." ”

Zhang Ruming pursed his lips disdainfully, "Cowardly, don't forget that this Heavenly Master is from Langzhong, and he hasn't experienced anything." It's Duan Lang, who is with Mingyue every day, and he doesn't see Mingyue's belly bulging. I said Duan Lang, will you be humane? ”

", you two guys are bickering, don't get it on me, okay. Fortunately, Mingyue is not here, she has to beat you if she hears it. Duan Lang scolded with a smile.

Li Jianshan laughed, "Duan Lang, you won't really let him say it." ”

", is Lao Tzu that kind of useless person, it's almost the same thing that happened to Delong."

Zhang Ruming smiled, "Then let's compare and see who will be the father first." I discussed with Zhu Zhu, one a year, and gave birth to seven or eight big fat boys. ”

Li Jianshan couldn't help but stick out his tongue, "I said Lord Shangguan, don't take a bite of Zhu Zhu, it's okay, it's all crooked to listen to." There are still seven or eight births, and you really raised her as a pig. ”

"Are you blessed with many sons, anyway, you can't be like Delong, who is sick and doesn't know if he can live until the day he ascends the throne."

"By the way, how is Delon's health?" Duan Lang asked.

"It's no big deal, I looked at it with a few Lang Zhong in the city, the old illness and excessive grief and indignation, there is no other way but to recuperate." Zhang Ruming said.

Duan Lang nodded, he was also at a loss for Delong's physical condition. Fortunately, Lidu City does not need Delong to be busy at the moment, so let him recover for a while first.

Li Jianshan looked at Duan Lang and asked, "Duan Lang, do you really plan to take the initiative to send troops?" ”

"Yes, the new army is almost trained, and it also needs to be tempered in blood. In addition, it is not an option to just stick to it like this. The soldiers and horses on the side of Landu City are mainly defensive, and if you want to attack, you have to be these men from our capital city. ”

"Then you ~ adopted Lu Mo's suggestion?" Li Jianshan asked.

"I can't say it's adoptive, but I've had that idea for a long time. By the way, how is the status of the investigation into the identity of this person? ”

"I have started the investigation with the help of someone from the Defence Division. It takes time, though. ”

Duan Lang nodded, "This person is a great talent, but Mingyue always feels a little uneasy. Although we recruit virtuous people, we can't let people with bad intentions get in. This person must be investigated in detail. ”

"I've been sending people to keep an eye on me these days, but this Lu Mo is just following you around except staying in the villa. Usually, I went out to buy something to eat, and I didn't find anything out of the ordinary. Li Jianshan said.

Duan Lang pondered for a moment, "There is no doubt about employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people, you must find out the details before reusing this person." After the wedding, I will let him follow the army, whether he is really talented, can only be reflected after the battle. In addition, on the day of tomorrow's wedding, we must take strict precautions, so that the inside is tight and the outside is loose, not only to be lively but also to ensure all safety. ”

"Please rest assured of this, I have ordered Zhou Wu to mobilize a thousand scout battalions to change into civilian clothes and lurk all over the city. In particular, tomorrow's water source and kitchen stove will be taken down as soon as a stranger approaches. The ingredients of the banquet are controlled by Huang Zhi and others, and they will never fake others. Li Jianshan said seriously.

Duan Lang nodded and said, "Tomorrow the main things will be handed over to you, and Lao Zhang and I will sit on the ceremonial platform and wait for everyone to congratulate." There are people coming and going in the palace, and no one can say whether there are any spies from Xiyue. ”

"Okay, when the congregation general arrives, I'll focus on the arrangements, and everything will be implemented to the people." Li Jianshan said.

The three of them were talking, and Liu Xusheng, Cui Zhiliang and other big camp generals arrived one after another. As soon as these old teams arrived, the three of them also put away their jokes and began to get to the point. Duan Lang not only wanted to arrange tomorrow's wedding, but also announced that three days after the wedding, the soldiers and horses of the capital city rushed to Landu City. As soon as this military order was issued, everyone understood that it was not far off to go to war head-on with the Western Vietnamese army.

The north courtyard is the residence where the prince Delong lives. As Delong was bedridden, the hospital was very quiet. But in the open and in the dark, it is heavily guarded. Compared with the north courtyard of Delong, the east courtyard is very lively. The maids in the house are in and out, and all kinds of utensils for tomorrow are placed. In the west wing, Ah Zhu was nervous and excited, and with the help of several brides, he put on the big red wedding dress in advance.

The east wing corresponding to the west wing is where Duan Lang and Yutai Mingyue live. In the room, Han Feng and Yutai Mingyue looked out the window, but there was no joy on their faces.

"Master, have all the manpower been arranged?" Mingyue asked softly.

"I have secretly taken place, and after discussing with Li Jianshan, my people all hold special tokens."

"Master, in terms of the overall situation, Brother Jianshan will be thoughtful, and tomorrow our people will focus on protecting Prince Delong and Ah Zhu. Plus, you have to keep an eye on that Lu Mo yourself. Yutai Mingyue said softly.

Han Feng glanced at Mingyue, "What, you have doubts about him?" ”

"Any young person who is both talented and ambitious will always look for opportunities to show himself." With his abilities, he shouldn't be so obscure. When things go wrong, there must be a demon, this person, I can't figure it out. ”

"If you have suspicions, why not just eradicate them." Han Feng said coldly.

"No, Duan Lang is recruiting talents from all over the world, people with great ambitions, and recruiting virtuous people This is the general trend. If it is eradicated just because of suspicion, not only will my husband fall into the name of intolerable, but in his heart I will also become a narrow-minded jealous woman. There is a famous saying in our grassland, no matter how clever a fox is, it will always circle around its prey. Just look at what he's focused on and you'll soon understand what he's up to. If you really want to show your talent and climb to a high position, this person is a great help to become a husband. ”

"Mingyue, if you doubt it, which side do you think he will be sent from?" Han Feng asked.

Yutai Mingyue thought for a while, "I think it should be the details of Xiangguo Yu Ban and that Detective Si Huai." And only the two of them have the ability to cultivate such an outstanding young man. If it were really their people, this Lu Mo would never be a sincere assistant to Fujun. He can only temporarily win the trust of his husband and become a poisonous snake hidden by his husband's side. At a critical time, this poisonous snake will take the life of the husband. In other words, the purpose of his coming is not for his husband but for Delong. Therefore, your people must protect the Seven Princes. ”

Han Feng pondered for a moment, "Mingyue, is it possible that someone sent by Xiyue or Nanping?" ”

Yutai Mingyue shook her head, "I've thought about it, it's unlikely." Such talents, they are sent to the side of the husband is not of much use. Even if his husband took him on a march to fight, he couldn't pass on the news while he was in the army. What's more, I know my husband, he will not easily hand over the dispatch of troops and horses to outsiders. If it is a person from Xiyue, when Fujun repels Han Pingzi's army, the role of this person can only be to lurk. After this battle, it was impossible for Western Vietnam to use the power of the whole country to conquer Bactria within ten years. Therefore, even if such a talent is latent, it is not worth the loss. What's more, he said that he had taken refuge in Feng Zhun, and if the squire of the Great Xia Military Department didn't even have this bit of eyesight, then Great Xia would not be worthy of being called a strong country. All kinds of signs are combined, and Mingyue believes that he is the team in the shadows. ”

"Mingyue, have you told Duan Lang about these things?"

Tantai Mingyue smiled bitterly, "There are some things that I can't emphasize too much. The husband will become the strong man in the world, but the strong man has the dignity and self-confidence of the strong. As a strong woman, I can be his shadow behind my back, and even a poisonous woman who protects him. But in front of my husband and everyone, I must remain virtuous and tolerant. There are some things that can only be paid silently. Therefore, Mingyue would rather be a guardian in the dark than let her husband feel that Mingyue has no heart to tolerate people. ”

Han Feng sighed, "Sometimes if you're too smart, you'll be very tired." Leave this matter to Master, and his every move will not escape Master's eyes and ears. ”

With Han Feng and these horses secretly monitoring tomorrow's wedding, Tantai Mingyue felt a little relieved. The chaos in Great Xia made Tangtai Mingyue not worry about the battle situation, but because he was afraid that someone would secretly harm the Seventh Prince Delong. Once the Seventh Prince, Delong, died in the capital city, Dezhang would be able to ascend the throne immediately. If that were the case, the entire western army would become cannon fodder for the Western Vietnamese army. If you succeed, you will get nothing but the loss of troops, and once you lose the rear supply and fail, the consequences are unimaginable.

Lidu City built a villa, and Lu Mu sat alone in the house, thinking about every detail. Through these observations, he determined that there was a special means of communication between the Landu City and the Lidu City. Otherwise, Duan Lang would not have waited so with peace of mind.

Lu Mu pinched his fingers and calculated, "Even if it is a flying pigeon, it will take six hours to receive the news." Coupled with the three-day journey, as long as they are stopped for another half a day, the general situation of Landu City can be decided. ”

Lu Mu was sure that with Xiyue's latest climbing equipment and improved catapults, he should be able to take Landu City in four days. In particular, Han Pingzi received the deployment of Landu City, which made it easier for the Western Vietnamese army to attack the weak links. As long as there is no external assistance, Landu City will definitely not be able to stop their 400,000 troops from attacking day and night.

After thinking about the Lan Capital, Lu Mu began to think about tomorrow's plan again. In his plan, when he gets married tomorrow, the first thing he thinks about is how to make chaos in the house. Only in the chaos can his secret team be taken by surprise. The most effective way to make a crowded place chaotic is ~ fire!

Moreover, Lu Mu, who is also a member of the R&D team of the villa, has already done his tricks on the timber of the temporary ceremonial platform. He believes that this fire will make Shangguan Xuanwu's wedding scene more 'lively'!
