The Liang army camped in the south of a sloping land, where there was spring water and tender grass, and even if something happened, it could be defended on the spot. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Of course, this is just a habitual choice, if Tuyuhun really wants to do it, with their strength, I am afraid they will not be able to keep Zhang Jun.

The tent where Zhang Jun stayed was very low, because it was a marching tent, it could only accommodate four people to sleep, and the only slightly larger tent had been used as a place for deliberations. He hadn't lived with the soldiers for a long time, and he was really a little unaccustomed to it, first, it was difficult to wash up when the army was on the march, and everyone smelled; Second, the snoring of the soldiers was earth-shattering, making it difficult for Zhang Jun to sleep.

In fact, Wang Meng and Zhou Tong deliberately arranged for a more honest sergeant to "sleep", but at night, the whole camp was snoring, and it was like a symphony, and it was not a tent that could be separated at all.

Tossing and turning and unable to sleep, Zhang Jun simply put on his clothes and sat up, looking at the dead pig-like soldiers, he couldn't help but shake his head. In fact, the soldiers of the army slept very lightly, because they could encounter the enemy at any time, and most of them were extremely nervous, ready to slash people with knives at any time.

Later, in order to avoid the camp roar, Zhang Jun specially stipulated strict rest regulations and increased patrols several times, which reassured the soldiers over time. Now they don't wake up if they make a noise, even if they talk loudly. What can wake them up is the sound of gongs and horns, and as long as they form a conditioned reflex, they are not afraid that no one will respond to the enemy's attack.

Zhang Jun opened the curtain and walked outside alone, and immediately the guards on duty whispered to worship. Zhang Jun signaled them not to follow, and walked to the highest point of the camp alone, and the soldiers patrolling along the way greeted one after another, Zhang Jun encouraged them one by one, and walked for a long time in a short distance. Eventually, he found a flat boulder and sat on it.

The moonlight was dim tonight, but the air was very fresh, and there was a faint amount of moisture. It was the sea on the plateau, as clear as a white mirror, as if it could reflect all the distracting thoughts of people. Zhang Jun did not hide the expression on his face and took a deep breath.

At this time, a sound of footsteps came, and Zhang Jun followed the prestige, and saw that his figure was very similar to Wang Meng. Sure enough, when the arrivals approached, Wang Meng's bearded face appeared in front of him.

"The Metropolitan Governor is so interested!" Wang Meng said with a smile.

"General Wang's interest doesn't seem to be bad!" Zhang Jun said with a smile.

The two of them looked at each other and laughed.

This trip to Tuyuhun was really too easy. The conquest army has always regarded the Han army as an imaginary enemy, but after fighting with these barbarians, I know that not every country in the world has strong soldiers and good generals. King Tuyuhun can be so polite, to put it bluntly, he is still afraid of Da Liang's strength.

Zhang Jun patted the stone face next to him and said, "Sit down and talk." ”

Wang Meng was polite, and finally sat side by side with Zhang Jun after giving a salute, taking in the entire military camp.

"Your turn to patrol the camp? Where is the skinny monkey? Zhang Jun asked.

Wang Meng hurriedly got up and hugged his fists again and said: "Qiyu Metropolitan Governor, the last general and General Zhou will take turns on duty, he will be in the first half of the night, and the last general will be in the second half of the night." General Zhou should have gone to sleep······"

"Sit down! Sit down! Zhang Jun waved his hand and said with a smile: "Ordinary chat, you don't have to be so restrained." ”

Wang Meng smiled and sat down again, but looking at his posture, he knew that he was ready to get up and answer at any time.

Among Zhang Jun's main subordinates, Wang Meng and Chen Zhen are both late entrants, both of whom are old and experienced, and are the type of talents that Zhang Jun urgently needs. But now it seems that Wang Meng may still have a mustard in his heart, and he can't let go of it.

At the beginning, he was the first general of the Liang Army to enter Zhang Jun's field of vision, and he also participated in the Autumn Festival with Zhang Jun. In that incident, Zhang Jun captured the white tiger and returned, and Wang Meng also performed well, so Zhang Jun took the initiative to extend an olive branch later.

But at that time, Zhang Jun was still an idle swinger, and he really had no charm to impress Wang Meng, so Wang Meng politely rejected Zhang Jun's solicitation. It was precisely because of this missed opportunity that Wang Meng missed the first crusade. By the time Zhang Jun conquered him again, Wang Meng's importance had been greatly reduced, and it was difficult for him to enter the small circle between several other generals who shared life and death.

Where there are people, there are mountains, and Zhang Jun can't make his subordinates not recognize him. Now in the conquest army, Zhou Tong, Han Hu, and Hu Shuo are one faction; And Chen Zhen, Wang Meng and other generals who came up after the first faction. Although there is no power struggle, the degree of closeness varies greatly. After all, people have emotions, and when they are not doing business, they will always be closer to the brothers who have climbed the ice and snow together and fought thousands of miles.

In fact, Zhang Jun is the absolute authority in the army, and everyone else must obey orders. If the relationship between subordinates and superiors is too close, it is not a good thing. But as a traverser, Zhang Jun still hopes to be relaxed. The loneliness in his heart is something that no one can understand or touch, so he needs someone to listen, even if it is gossip, it can be resolved. In addition, in peacetime, friends or brothers can make people willing to die in wartime.

So he said to Wang Meng: "It's just idle talk, it doesn't have to be like this." If you stand up and speak again, will not Ben Governor look to you? ”

Wang Meng waved his hand again and again: "The last general will never have this intention······"

Zhang Jun pressed his arm and said with a smile: "So just sit down and talk." ”

Although Wang Meng was a little unable to let go, he had also gone through the age of being stunned, and he immediately patted Zhang Jun's ass: "The conquest army can have today's combat power and scale, thanks to the efforts of the major general." The young general was so much younger than the last general, but he could do what others couldn't, which was really admirable. The general relies on you so much, and he is also discerning······"

Honest people are the most convincing, and Zhang Jun is not exempt from vulgarity, and said with a smile on his face: "The Huns can't compete with our Han'er, and Tuyuhun won't be against Da Liang." You go back and tell this sentence to the generals and soldiers below, so that they can rest assured that Da Liang will definitely be thriving. ”

Wang Meng bowed and praised sincerely: "Da Liang has a master like a general, and he is assisted by a young general, and Kuang Fu Central Plains is just around the corner." ”

Zhang Jun said again: "Although General Wang joined my scene a little late, it doesn't matter. What Pontus values most is loyalty and power, both of which you do not lack. In the future, you will follow the Pontus, and you will only need to work diligently, and you will not need to have other distractions. Pontus is optimistic about you! ”

Wang Meng was overjoyed when he heard this, and the depression in his heart suddenly opened, and he hurriedly bowed: "Xie Dadu Governor cultivates, please accept the last general's worship!" After that, he really bowed and bowed, put his forehead on the grass, and said: "The last general is willing to follow the governor forever, bow to the fullest, and die." ”

Zhang Jun smiled, picked up Wang Meng, and said something he often said: "There is no need to die, I still expect the general to be able to go straight to Guanzhong and recover Erjing." When the time comes, he will be crowned with a wife and a son, and he will be admired by future generations for generations, and he will die thanks to him! ”

"Hahahaha!" Wang Meng clenched his fists and said: "The last general will live up to the expectations of the governor." ”

The easiest thing to discuss privately between men is women, and now as soon as the conversation box is opened, Wang Meng is also a lot less restrained, so he mentioned the Mingyue county lord of Tuyuhun, and said that the young general, you are really blessed, not only let Secretary Jiang and Chen Shenjun's daughter secretly agree, but now there is another foreign county lord.

Zhang Jun didn't have a shy expression, and said: "Murong Mingyue is the daughter of Tuyan, and she is also the only blood and bone, if it can really promote the marriage, it will greatly reduce the possibility of Tuyuhun turning over the edge, and even tie it to the chariot of Da Liang, becoming a place for us to have a steady stream of soldiers." ”

Wang Meng's expression also became solemn, and he muttered: "Governor, if Tuyan agrees to marry, then what position will his daughter treat?" ”

Zhang Jun said without thinking: "If she serves me wholeheartedly, I will naturally not treat me badly, if she loves her homeland, then she will be raised in the deep palace." As for what position to treat him, one side room is sufficient, and it is expected that the king of Tuyuhun will not have the luxury of expecting the governor of Pontus to accept his daughter as the main room. ”

There is another sentence that Zhang Jun didn't say, that is, once he gave birth to a son with the only daughter of King Tuyuhun, that is, the rightful successor to the throne of Tuyuhun, and then he can rightfully meddle in Tuyuhun things.

Wang Meng nodded when he heard this, and felt a little relieved. As a subordinate, it is estimated that no one wants their housewife to become an alien. He said: "Tuyuhun is a remnant of Xianbei barbarians, and he doesn't know etiquette, but Murong Mingyue has some appearance, how can he be in the right position?" The Major General was very thoughtful······"

Zhang Jun smiled but said nothing.

Wang Meng stopped and said in a deep voice: "Please give the young general some guidance." ”

Zhang Jun said bluntly: "You have seen too much of the art of war and tactics, but you don't understand the simplest things······

The two talked some more gossip, Zhang Jun yawned, and walked to the camp with Wang Meng. The latter had to continue to patrol the camp, and Zhang Jun went to the big tent of the discussion. He picked up the brush on the desk, wrote a letter quickly, summoned a guard guarding the tent door, and ordered: "Hurry up, and send it to Guzang day and night at once." ”

The next day, the sun rose, shining all over the grassland. The Liang army and Tuyuhun's palace tent army coincidentally came to the place where they met yesterday, while the four thousand Huangshui tribesmen and Jiang De's kid were tied up into dozens of strings and knelt between the two armies.

They haven't eaten a drop of water for a day and a night, and everyone is very depressed, only the head Jiang De is still in good spirits, looking up at the Tuyuhun army, and seeing his beloved woman - Murong Mingyue at a glance.

"Smack!" A whip slapped Jiang De's face, and a Liang sergeant in charge of guarding the prisoners shouted: "Barbarian, if you dare to raise your head again, I will kill you!" ”

Jiang De glared angrily, but in exchange for more whips, until finally, he had to lower his head, leaving tears of humiliation.

On the other side, Tuyan, Jiang Cong and Mingyue happened to see this scene in their eyes. Jiang Cong, as a father, hadn't spoken yet, but Murong Mingyue couldn't help it first, and said to his father urgently: "yes, save Brother De'er!" ”

Tuyan was bitter on his face, if his heart could be saved, he would have been saved a long time ago, do you still need to wait until now?

He urged him to step forward, Zhang Jun also came to meet him, and the two met again in the same place.

This time, Tuyan first expressed his intention to marry, and then mentioned the nobles' suggestion: to exchange armor for slaves.

Zhang Jun stretched out his hand to interrupt Tuyan's words, pointed at the four thousand captives, and said: "King, the matter of the mutual market will be discussed later, so it is better to send grain and grass to your people to eat first, if you starve to death, it will not damage the name of the king's benevolence." ”

Tuyan really had 10,000 heads in his heart***************······ Rushing by. But your captives let me give me food, how can there be such a reason in the world?

As if seeing Tuyan's thoughts, Zhang Jun then said with a smile: "Great King, the Qiang people of the Huangshui Department are the leaders of the Tuyuhun Qiang. Naturally, the people of your land are hated by the people who starve to death, but you are the one who rules here. What's more, it seems that the only son of your important minister Jiang Cong is also among the captives. If there is any misfortune for him······"

"Humph!" Tuyan snorted coldly, narrowed his eyes and said, "The young general has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, this king has seen it!" ”

"Where, where!" Zhang Jun hugged his fists and said: "I have heard for a long time that the king believes in Buddhism, and the so-called saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, you see ······"

Tuyan was angry in his heart, and he didn't want to talk about it at all, so he turned his horse's head and left.

Zhang Jun smiled and watched Tuyan return to the army, and he also returned to his own position.

Today's negotiations seem to have collapsed, but they are not. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Tuyuhun's palace tent army to send grain and grass to the army.

Zhang Jun ordered that stale grain be boiled into porridge for the captives to drink, and that they should not be fed, as long as they did not starve to death.

For several days, the two armies confronted each other as before, but there was no peace negotiation again, and it seemed that Zhang Jun's behavior completely offended King Tuyuhun.

On the evening of the sixth day, Gu Zang sent a messenger, and Zhang Mao personally said to Zhang Jun: As long as you can win over Tuyuhun, anything can be discussed, and marriage can also be tried.

At the same time, the messenger sent by Tuyan to Guzang also returned, conveying Zhang Mao's goodwill - agreeing to the marriage!

It's just that when Tuyan announced this matter, the first person to oppose it was Murong Mingyue herself.

As soon as she learned of this, she went to spy on Tuyan when she summoned the nobles to discuss the matter. In her impression, Han'er's etiquette is very cumbersome, and he speaks in a roundabout way, and he is not a real man at all.

As soon as the meeting was over, Murong Mingyue immediately went to see his father Tuyan.

She couldn't take care of it at this time, so she hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, you can't marry me to Han'er, I won't go!" ”

Tuyan Pingsu was obedient and very fond of his daughter, but he did not agree to her at this time, but said in Xianbei dialect: "Mingyue is the daughter of the Murong clan, if it is beneficial to the clan, you should put the big thing first." ”
