On February 5, 430 of the Great Jin Dynasty, five cavalry brigades and fifteen infantry brigades of the Guards Corps of the Broken Army, as well as more than 106,000 people trapped in the camp, finally arrived at Gongyang City, the capital of Xiangzhou, after more than a month of marching.

Wang Ben, the commander of the Guards Legion of the Broken Army, was introduced by the officials of Xiangzhou, and after seeing Feng Ziheng, the governor of Xiangzhou, he hugged his fists and said: "Zhenyuan general Wang Ben has seen Feng Zhoumu, this time Wang Ben was ordered by my lord to lead an army of 900,000 to support Xiangzhou and resist the Eastern Barbarian army that invaded our Great Jin, Feng Zhoumu, I don't know what the situation in Xiangzhou is now?" ”

Now Liu Ji's military position is still a captive general, all the generals under Liu Ji's command, the highest military rank is General Zhenyuan, the commanders of the six major legions in the Broken Army have been named General Zhenyuan by Liu Ji, and the commanders of the seven elite troops of the Broken Army, as well as some generals with outstanding contributions, have also been named General Zhenyuan.

Xiangzhou Prefecture Mu Feng Ziheng said with a wry smile to Wang Ben: "The current situation in Xiangzhou can be said to be very bad, at the beginning of this year, the Qing Yi people sent a large number of troops to Xiangzhou, according to the information obtained by this official, the number of Qing Yi people increased the number of troops at least more than 500,000, and in the middle of last month, the Dongban army, dominated by the Qing Yi people, launched a large-scale offensive against Hedong County, in the offensive of the Dongban army, Hedong County Taishou Gao Rail was killed in the defense of Qianyang City, the county capital, Qianyang City was also immediately broken by the Eastern Barbarian Army, and Gao Rail Taishou originally controlled Hedong County and Yumen County, and now all the cities have completely fallen into the hands of the Eastern Barbarian Army. ”

Feng Ziheng's words did not make Wang Ben show any surprised expression, on the way to Gongyang City, the capital of Xiangzhou Prefecture, Wang Ben had already learned the information of the Qingyi tribe's increase in troops through Heishuitai, as well as the news that Hedong County and Yumen County were captured by the Dongban army, and this time the Qingyi tribe not only sent 500,000 additional troops to Xiangzhou, but also sent 500,000 additional troops to Fuzhou.

Wang Ben then asked: "Feng Zhoumu, has there been any recent movement in the Eastern Barbarian army in Xiangzhou?" ”

Xiangzhou Prefecture Mu Feng Ziheng shook his head and said: "The Eastern Barbarian Army has not made any major moves in the recent period, the main force of the Eastern Barbarian Army has been staying in the territory of Hedong County and Yumen County, they may have received the news that the Broken Army is about to arrive in Xiangzhou, and they are afraid of the prestige of the Broken Army, so they have not launched another large-scale offensive in the near future, and the official can only hope that General Wang can drive the Eastern Barbarian Army out of Xiangzhou now." ”

Wang Ben pondered for a while and said: "Feng Zhoumu, since the Eastern Barbarian army has not made any major moves for the time being, then General Ben is ready to lead the army to rest here in Gongyang City for a few days, after all, our army has traveled for more than a month, and the soldiers are very tired, and I also ask Feng Zhoumu to replenish a batch of grain and grass for our army, as for how to bring the Eastern Barbarian army back to the 100,000 mountains, we still need to think in the long run." ”

Xiangzhou Prefecture Mu Feng Ziheng nodded and said: "Please rest assured, General Wang, now in Gongyang City, a large amount of grain and grass has been hoarded, which is enough for the millions of soldiers of your and my armies to consume for more than half a year. ”

After this period of army expansion, in one city and two counties controlled by Xiangzhou Prefecture Mu Feng Ziheng, now Zhou Mu Feng Ziheng has gathered 250,000 troops, of which about 150,000 are in Gongyang City, but most of the soldiers in the army under the command of Zhou Mu Feng Ziheng are urgently recruited young and strong, so the combat effectiveness of the 250,000 troops under the command of Zhou Mu Feng Ziheng can be imagined.

After the Dongban army dominated by the Qingyi nationality captured Hedong County and Yumen County, Feng Ziheng, the governor of Xiangzhou, can be said to have not had a good night's sleep, and he was worried every day, afraid that the main force of the Dongban army would march to Gongyang City, even if there was the benefit of the city wall, Feng Ziheng, the governor of Xiangzhou, still did not have confidence that he could hold Gongyang City with 150,000 troops.

Now that the 900,000 troops of the Broken Army have arrived in Gongyang City, the state pastor Feng Ziheng is finally relieved, as for whether the Broken Army will stay in Xiangzhou after the Eastern Barbarian Army is driven back to the 100,000 mountains, the state pastor Feng Ziheng has no heart to think about it.

In the Taishou Mansion of Qianyang City, the county capital of Hedong County, Xiangzhou, Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa asked Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western part of the Qingyi tribe, with a puzzled expression: "Since Wumeng Tusi has already intended to take the opportunity to capture some more land in the Jin Kingdom, why did the king of Wumeng stop continuing to expand the results of the war after leading his army to capture Hedong County and Yumen County in succession?" With the Jin army in Xiangzhou, it is impossible to stop the warriors of the Qingyi tribe and our Guxi tribe, and the armies of our various ethnic groups can completely capture one or two more counties before the army enters Xiangzhou, and even it is not impossible to capture Gongyang City, the capital of Xiangzhou! ”

Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western Qing Yi tribe, shook his head and said: "Although my father changed his mind this time because Li Jinbao, the Tusi of the Bai Miao tribe, was seriously ill, and was ready to take the opportunity to capture some land in the Jin Kingdom, I feel that Li Jinbao, the Tusi of the Bai Miao tribe, is too sick this time, and I am not ready to let the army go too deep into the hinterland of Xiangzhou of the Jin State and capture Hedong County and Yumen County, also because these two counties are close to the 100,000 mountains, so that once something happens to the 100,000 mountains, I can lead the army back to the 100,000 mountains at any time." ”

It turned out that the Eastern Barbarian army, which was dominated by the Qing Yi people, had just eaten the 150,000 troops of the Southeast Xiang Army in Fuzhou, Jin State, but the Bai Miao people in the 100,000 mountains suddenly spread the news that Tusi Li Jinbao was seriously ill, which made the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago can't help but have some other thoughts.

To tell the truth, the Qing Yi and Bai Miao have been very greedy for the land, population and wealth of the Jin State beyond the 100,000 mountains for hundreds of years, but the hatred between the Qing Yi and the Bai Miao is too great, almost to the point where it is impossible to coexist, so that neither of the two ethnic groups dares to put their main energy on the Jin State.

This time, the two baby daughters of the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Agogo were robbed, and the most suspected was a Jin caravan, and the Jin court ignored the official letter of the Qingyi people asking for the return of the two princesses, so the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Agogo was angry, and then gathered the two million troops of the Qingyi tribe and the dependent tribes, and divided the troops into Xiangzhou and Fuzhou of the Jin State.

Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Aguo initially just had the idea of teaching a lesson to the people of the Jin Kingdom, hoping that the Jin court would find a way to send his two precious daughters back, and was not ready to annex the land of the Jin Kingdom.

However, with the Qingyi nationality-dominated Dongban army into the Jin State, the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago saw the poor performance of the Jin Xiangzhou army and the Fuzhou army, and even the southeast wing army, known as the strong army of the Jin State, also folded its wings in the hands of the Dongban army dominated by the Qingyi people, and the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago's heart has already had some careful thoughts, if the Xiangzhou and Fuzhou of the Jin State can be owned by the Qingyi people, then the strength of the Qingyi people will increase greatly, but it is a pity that the Bai Miao people have been eyeing the side, Even if the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Aguo has some careful thoughts, he has to keep it in his heart.

However, the news that Li Jinbao, the Tusi of the Bai Miao tribe, was seriously ill, suddenly came out of the Bai Miao tribe, which made the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Agogo immediately feel the opportunity given by God to the Qingyi tribe, and soon the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago mobilized one million elite troops of the Qingyi tribe to increase the troops of Xiangzhou and Fuzhou of the Jin State by 500,000 each.

The Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago also gave his two sons, that is, the western king of the Qingyi tribe, Wumeng Ergu, and the southern king Wumengkezi, issued an order to capture the land of the Jin State as much as possible, and pointed out that the so-called capture is a permanent occupation, and this time the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago will take the opportunity to annex some land of the Jin State, and the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago hopes that the two sons can capture all the Xiangzhou and Fuzhou of the Jin State.

Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa frowned and said, "Hasn't the news of Li Jinbao's serious illness of Bai Miao Tusi been confirmed?" Could it be that there can be a fake? ”

Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western Qing Yi tribe, said in a deep voice: "Anything can happen between the Qing Yi and the Bai Miao people, and I have always had a feeling of uneasiness about the news that the Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao is suddenly seriously ill, so it's better to be careful!" In addition, after capturing Hedong County and Yumen County, if we do not continue to attack other counties and counties in Xiangzhou, I still have a layer of concern, that is, the Broken Army that has entered Xiangzhou, you must know that the Broken Army is not an ordinary army, it is a strong army that crisscrosses the Western Regions and the grasslands, if our Qingyi people fight with the Broken Army and suffer losses, our Qingyi and other ethnic groups in Hedong County and Yumen County The army is also easy to retreat into the 100,000 mountains. ”

Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa nodded and said: "It is still the thoughtful consideration of the Wumeng King, we really can't measure the Broken Army by the combat effectiveness of the Southeast Xiang Army, but the Broken Army has defeated the coalition forces of the four major powers in the Western Regions and the coalition forces of more than a hundred nomads in the grasslands. ”

Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western Qing Yi tribe, continued: "According to the information received, the troops of the Broken Army entering Xiangzhou should have arrived in Gongyang City, the capital of Xiangzhou, and our troops of all ethnic groups are waiting for work in Hedong County and Yumen County, waiting for the Broken Army to take the initiative to attack Hedong County and Yumen County. ”

In a bedroom in the Tusi Mansion of Wuyuan City in the 100,000 Great Mountains, the Bai Miao princess Li Weiqi smiled and said to the Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao who was lying on the bed: "Abba, get up and move!" In fact, Abba doesn't need to be so careful at all in the Tusi Mansion! ”

Li Jinbao, the Tusi of the Bai Miao tribe who should have fallen into a coma, immediately opened his eyes, "Be careful, our Bai Miao tribe and the Qing Yi tribe have been fighting for hundreds of years, and they have sent a large number of spies to each other, and even the local division does not dare to guarantee that there are no Qing Yi spies in the Tusi Mansion in Wuyuan City, so the local division must continue to pretend to be seriously ill, and it must be the same as the real one, otherwise how can you deceive the ears and eyes of the Qing Yi tribe." ”

In fact, the Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao was not sick at all, he pretended to be sick in order to confuse the Qing Yi people, and after the Bai Miao people sent more than 20 dead soldiers to Chengyin City to assassinate Liu Ji failed, the Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao came up with the trick of pretending to be sick again, so that the Qing Yi people could rest assured that they could compete for territory with the Jin army.

Li Jinbao knows very well in his heart that the Qing Yi tribe is actually the same as their Bai Miao people, and has always had ambitions for the land of the Jin State, but because of the containment between the Qing Yi and the Bai Miao people, neither of the two tribes can bite the big fat of the Jin State, if at this time the Qing Yi Tusi Wumeng Ago learns that he is seriously ill and in a coma, then the Qing Yi people are likely to take the opportunity to expand the scale of the war with the Jin State in order to annex part of the land of the Jin State, and as a result, the Qing Yi Tusi Wumeng Ago is really fooled.

Bai Miao princess Li Weiqi said with a smile: "Abba's trick of pretending to be sick is really powerful, the Qing Yi tribe has now mobilized about a million troops, and they have entered Xiangzhou and Fuzhou in the Jin State respectively, and the war between the Qing Yi and the Jin State seems to be getting bigger and bigger." ”

Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao said with a smile: "This is far from enough, now the Qing Yi people are only in Xiangzhou and Fuzhou in the Jin Kingdom, more than three million troops have been invested, and a considerable part of them are dependent on the Qing Yi Nationality of other ethnic groups, it is best that the Qing Yi Nationality can send another two or three million troops into the Jin Kingdom, in that case, once our Bai Miao Nationality starts a full-scale war against the Qing Yi Nationality, it will be much easier." ”

Li Weiqi then said: "Abba, you are too greedy, according to the information we have obtained from the Bai Miao people, the Qing Yi people have entered the Jin State this time with more than 3 million troops, and the Qing Yi people's own army accounts for 2.5 million, and these 2.5 million Qing Yi troops are the elite of the Qing Yi people, if the Qing Yi people put another two or three million troops into the Jin State, the Qing Yi people will have no strength in the 100,000 mountains." ”

Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao stretched his waist and said: "I just think about it, even if I fall ill, the Tusi Wumeng Aguo of the Qing Yi Nationality will not dare to invest all the strength of the Qing Yi Nationality in the Jin Kingdom, and the Qing Yi Nationality will not ignore the existence of our Bai Miao Tribe." ”

Li Weiqi then asked Li Jinbao again: "Abba, the last batch of dead soldiers did not complete the task, do you need to send another group of dead soldiers to pretend to be people from the Qingyi tribe to assassinate Liu Ji and Liu Ji's relatives?" ”

Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao pondered for a moment before saying, "Then send another group of dead soldiers to give it a try!" Remember, you don't need to assassinate Liu Ji, you only need to kill one or two of Liu Ji's relatives! ”

Li Weiqi said: "Abba rest assured, my daughter will explain the task clearly." ”

Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao said: "In addition, regardless of whether the plan to assassinate Liu Ji's relatives is successful or not, it is decided that the dead soldiers sent by our Bai Miao tribe must not show any horses. ”

Li Weiqi nodded and said, "My daughter will definitely pick out the real dead soldiers, and she will definitely not show any flaws." ”
