The ancients regarded it extremely important to future generations, especially the barbarians who lived in the deep mountains and old forests for generations, lived by hunting, relied on the sky and luck to eat, and lived a very hard life. You can work hard, but no one wants their descendants to live a life of hardship and hardship. Lei Heng grasped this point and hit the weakness of the barbarian leader in one fell swoop, making the barbarian leader agree to Lei Heng's conditions.

Lei Heng smiled and asked, "Chief, then how did Zhang Fang plan to get rid of me?" "For Zhang Fang's plan, Lei Heng has also figured out countless times, it is nothing more than luring Lei Heng into the mountains and forests, or Zhang Fang rebelling and counterattacking Lei Heng...... However, Lei Heng still needs to figure out Zhang Fang's plan in order to better design Zhang Fang and ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Now that the decision has been made, the barbarian leader also let go, still with a simple smile on his face, and said with a smile: "My lord, the ancestor is the leader of the Wuling barbarians, after the tribe rebelled and split a hundred years ago, he led a part of the clan to live here, and gradually became the Badong barbarians. My name is Zhuang Kui, and I am in charge of these 20,000 tribesmen. Just call me by my name. ”

Lei Heng nodded, agreed, and his eyes fell on Zhuang Kui, waiting for Zhuang Kui to speak.

Zhuang Kui said: "According to Zhang Fang's plan, it is roughly divided into two steps. ”

"The first step, early tomorrow morning, I will lead the barbarians to attack Fangling County, Zhang Fang will deliberately create the illusion that Fangling County is insufficient, so that all the people think that Fangling County is likely to be captured by us. At this time, Zhang Fang would instigate the officials of Fangling to let the adults face us. When the time comes, the adults will lead the soldiers into battle, and the barbarians I lead will fight with the adults for a while, and then they will feign defeat and lead the adults into the mountains and forests. ”

"In the second step, after the adult leads the soldiers into the mountains and forests, Zhang Fang will also lead the army to follow the adults. As long as you enter the mountains and forests and get out of the eyes of the people, Zhang Fang will attack the adults at the same time as me. Zhang Fang's original intention was to get rid of the adults directly, but I knew that after Zhang Fang got rid of the adults this time, he would definitely turn his face and deny people, so he proposed to capture the adults alive and let Zhang Fang send people to escort food and weapons to the cottage in exchange. ”

Zhuang Kui slowly explained Zhang Fang's plan, his expression was calm, but a touch of helplessness flashed on his face. Barbarians are thirsty for killing, and this is the reason why barbarians are thirsty for killing. It was Zhang Fang's killing, but he blamed all the sins on the barbarians.

After Lei Heng heard this, he sneered again and again: "Zhuang Kui, although the plan Zhang Fang gave you is still good, but the loopholes in it can be seen at a glance by a discerning person, for example, you led the barbarians to retreat to the mountains and forests, this is the biggest flaw." There is a way to enter the forest, how can I be so unwise. ”

"If I lead the troops, not only will I not pursue, but I will not even lead the troops out of the city to fight you. I only need to lead the soldiers to defend Fangling City, and I can make you retreat without a fight. Lei Heng was full of confidence when he spoke, and his eyes flashed with wisdom.

Zhuang Kui's eyes flashed with a strange brilliance, and he hesitated for a while before answering and asking: "My lord, tomorrow I will lead my sons to attack Fangling City, what is your plan?" ”

When Lei Heng heard this, he was silent for a moment, and said in a harmonious voice: "Zhuang Kui, since Zhang Fang is going to attack me in the mountains and forests, then I will use his own way to govern his body, and after Zhang Fang leads the soldiers into the woods, you will lead the barbarian sons and I to attack Zhang Fang and completely get rid of Zhang Fang." ”

Zhuang Kui looked at Lei Heng, and felt a chill in his heart. With the way of others, but also the heart of others. This move is really vicious, Zhang Fang wanted to use this trick to kill Lei Heng and dominate Fangling, but in the end he was going to die in his own scheme, I don't know if Zhang Fang would feel very ironic after he knew.

********************

Early the next morning.

Lei Heng had just finished breakfast, and Zhang Fang hurriedly ran to the post station with four or five officials.

"Lord Captain, the lower official has just received the news from the scouts that the barbarians scattered around the county town are about to attack the county seat, and there are thousands of people, please ask the captain to make a decision quickly."

Zhang Fang's face was anxious, but there was an indescribable excitement in his eyes. Although Zhang Fang's expression flashed away and was well disguised, he was still noticed by Lei Heng, who was paying attention.

Lei Heng sneered in his heart, but replied seriously: "Lord Zhang, isn't it just a barbarian attacking the city?" The barbarians are ignorant, and they have no good weapons or enough food, so what is there to fear? ”

Zhang Fang persuaded with an impatient look: "Lord Captain, the barbarians are thirsty for killing, if they don't go out of the city to fight, I am afraid that the people in the city will be affected!" ”

Lei Heng smiled and said: "Lord Zhang, since the barbarians are thirsty for killing, then defend the city and defend the city, and the barbarians will retreat without a fight, and naturally the people will be safe." ”

Zhang Fang hurriedly stepped forward and admonished: "My lord, the barbarians are attacking the city, if the adults don't fight, it will affect the reputation of the adults." Besides, when the adult was the captain of the Southern Barbarians at the beginning, he disregarded the safety of his people, and I am afraid that it will not be conducive to the future management and handling of barbarian affairs! ”

"But I only have more than 20 guards in my hands, how can I lead the troops to the battle?"

"The lower official is willing to hand over the two hundred people from other departments to the command of the adults!"

When Lei Heng heard this, he hesitated for a while, and seemed to be moved by Zhang Fang's words, and said, "Well, I hope it is as Lord Zhang said." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Fang finally showed a smile on his face.

"Uh......h Woo...... Woo ......" Suddenly, outside the county seat, a horn sound came into the county seat.

"Knock...... Boom...... ......Immediately after that, the dull drum beat also rushed into the sky, reverberating in the county town non-stop.

Zhang Fang heard the sound of trumpets and drums from outside the city, a flash of light in his eyes, his face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly said: "My lord, here, here...... Those damned barbarians are attacking the city, please hurry to the city gate as soon as possible and lead the soldiers to defeat the barbarians......"

Lei Heng nodded and said, "Lord Zhang, you go to the outside of the city tower to command first, and I will come later." ”

"No." Zhang Fang responded, then turned and left.

Lei Heng also turned around and left, ordering Sui Sheng to select two groups of shadow guard soldiers to gather, and Han Hao divided into two groups of shadow guards to protect Xi Zhong and other scribes, and waited for the opportunity to seize the county office.

At the time of tea, Sui Sheng appeared in front of Lei Heng with the Shadow Guard and two hundred soldiers.

At the city gate, when Lei Heng arrived with his soldiers, the city gate was actually wide open, and Zhang Fang led the soldiers who should have been stationed on the tower of Fangling City to fight with the barbarians outside the city gate.

"Zhang Fang actually opened the city gate without authorization and led the soldiers to fight with the barbarians, it seems that Zhang Fang is very anxious." Lei Heng secretly said in his heart, Zhang Fang actually went out of the city to fight without authorization, obviously wanting Lei Heng to join the battle as soon as possible, so that the barbarians could pretend to be defeated.

Lei Heng's heart is like a mirror, of course he will not let Zhang Fang sing a one-man show. Lei Heng also picked up a war knife and roared: "Dian Wei, Sui Sheng, kill the enemy with me." Then he led the soldiers and rushed out of the city gate.

"Kill, kill......" A loud roar rushed into the sky, and the sound exploded like thunder. Suddenly, a group of soldiers rushed like wolves and tigers towards the barbarians outside the city.

"Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming." When Zhang Fang saw Lei Heng's soldiers arrive, he immediately roared loudly.

Zhuang Kui, the leader of the barbarians, saw that Lei Heng and Zhang Fang had already met the battle, and suddenly shouted: "The officers and soldiers are too fierce, retreat, retreat quickly!" Then he took the sword in his hand and turned around and ran.

Zhuang Kui took the lead in retreating, and in an instant, the barbarians who were fighting with the officers and soldiers also retreated, and some barbarians saw that they could not get rid of the entanglement of the officers and soldiers, so they simply threw the steel knives in their hands towards the officers and soldiers, delayed the entanglement of the officers and soldiers, and then turned around and fled.

Lei Heng was red-eyed, and when he saw the barbarians fleeing, he immediately shouted: "Kill, kill, kill, kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, you can't let the barbarians escape." After finishing speaking, Lei Heng took the lead in carrying the steel knife in his hand and rushed towards the fleeing barbarian.

Dian Wei and Sui Sheng followed Lei Heng, and when they saw Lei Heng chasing the barbarians closely, they could only catch up with Lei Heng quickly, and followed Lei Heng to protect Lei Heng's safety......

Zhang Fang saw Lei Heng chasing and killing the barbarians as if he had lost his mind, and he was very happy in his heart.

Zhuang Kui led the barbarians to retreat quickly, and quickly ran in the direction where the barbarians lived.

Lei Heng followed closely behind, chasing Zhuang Kui tightly. Behind Lei Heng were the officers and soldiers of Fangling County led by Zhang Fang.

On the surface, Zhang Fang led the officers and soldiers to follow Lei Heng closely, wanting to pursue the barbarians led by Zhuang Kui, but the real situation is that the 200 soldiers led by Lei Heng are in the middle of the two forces of Zhang Fang and Zhuang Kui.

Lei Heng has heard a saying, don't put all your eggs in one basket. If you pin all your hopes on Zhuang Kui, a barbarian, it is undoubtedly stupid, even if Zhuang Kui is truly obedient to Lei Heng, it is impossible to rely on Zhuang Kui's strength.

Even though Zhuang Kui agreed to Lei Heng and was willing to help Lei Heng kill Zhang Fang, Lei Heng had to guard against Zhuang Kui. Therefore, when Lei Heng and Dian Wei led two hundred soldiers to pursue the barbarians, the Shadow Guard led by Sui Sheng began to slow down their running speed and gradually fell behind Zhang Fang's army.

Zhang Fang looked at Lei Heng, who was running in front of him, and smiled weirdly.

Several forces chased after me until they reached the edge of a forest. Zhuang Kui, Lei Heng, and Zhang Fang's eyes lit up at the same time, and they finally arrived at their destination.

As long as you enter the mountains and forests, everything that happens is done by barbarians, and no matter who lives or dies, it is already insignificant. Zhang Fang and Lei Heng invariably flashed such thoughts in their hearts.

The barbarians led by Zhuang Kui were the first to enter the mountains and forests, followed by two hundred soldiers led by Lei Heng, and then Zhang Fang also entered the mountains and forests with eight hundred Fangling soldiers, and finally the two groups of shadow guards led by Sui Sheng.

When he went deep into the mountains and forests, Zhuang Kui, who was running at the front, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Zhang Fang. At the same time, Lei Heng and Zhang Fang also stopped.

Zhang Fang couldn't help laughing out loud and said, "What a Lei Heng...... What a Nanban lieutenant...... It's just a hairy silly boy who has taken shit luck...... I don't know how thick the sky is, and I don't know how sinister people are...... Do you really think that I will willingly hand over the power in my hands, assist you as an outsider, and cut off the opportunity for my children and descendants to dominate one side? After a pause, he instructed the barbarian leader: "Zhuang Kui, let's do it, let our captain see the strength of the barbarians." ”

It's just that after Zhang Fang's voice fell, Zhuang Kui remained motionless, with an intriguing smile on his face, which made Zhang Fang gradually realize that the situation was not good.

Lei Heng looked at Zhang Fang with pity and sneered: "If you want to kill me, why don't I want to kill you?" Kill you, so that Fang Ling can enter my hands and help me achieve great things. When Lei Heng said this, he glanced back at Zhuang Kui and ordered: "Zhuang Kui, kill, as long as you kill Zhang Fang, your parents, wives and children, and your children and grandchildren will all get a county and start a happy life." ”

"Yes, Captain!" Zhuang Kui patted his chest and roared loudly: "Sons, the person in front of you is Zhang Fang who oppresses us, kill him, as long as you kill Zhang Fang, you can get a stable life, kill me ......"
