Mt. Yonekura.

In winter, the mountains are cold to the bone, and at that time they are silent and empty, even birds and beasts do not want to show their heads, only occasionally hunters will go deep into the mountains to hunt rare birds.

However, at this time, the rice cang mountain is full of people coming and going, transporting materials, and it is very lively.

Rammed earth and stones, the foundation has appeared. Where the mountain road passes, a small reconnaissance village begins to take shape. At this moment, it was almost noon, and the disciples of the Dongyang Sect patted the dirt in their hands, walked quickly to the fire, and lit a fire to keep warm.

A large pot was on the shelf on the fire, boiling hot soup.

With a whistle, the dark sentry standing on the high place saw an ox cart full of grain and meat under the escort of Sergeant Changce, and was being transported to the construction site. The Dongyang cultists who were guarding were released, and the sergeant Changce unloaded the grain and meat.

The Dongyang cultists happily took the meat and threw it into the pot. These meats are salted meats that are resistant to storage and transportation, but they don't taste as good as fresh meats.

Without adding any seasoning, the Dongyang cultists only put some wild vegetables dug in the morning into this pot. The hot water is boiling and the aroma is quickly coming.

For the Dongyang cultists, who have always been poor, it is a great pleasure to be able to eat coarse cakes and drink a sip of hot soup on this winter day.

Sergeant Changce was also on the side, they were supposed to return after transporting the supplies, but when they smelled the broth, they were a little lazy and refused to leave.

"Brothers, you want some broth, too?"

Although the Dongyang Sect and the Yang Clan have enmity, the Dongyang Sect and the Changce Sergeant have no grudges. On the contrary, the two sides get along very well these days.

"What's so embarrassing about that? We'll just deal with it. ”

As he spoke, more than a dozen Changce sergeants took out the bowls they were carrying, walked to the cauldron, and scooped up the broth. Sergeant Changce had rations distributed, just for convenience, but did not bring meat.

The Dongyang cultists were not stingy, and the two sides sat together, bragging and fart.

In the distance, Ye Qingqing was watching a scene, his eyebrows wrinkled.

That day, in the Yang Mansion in Xiancheng, after Yang Xian saved her. Ye Qingqing had no choice but to let go of the mustard in his heart and cooperate with Yang Xian.

Although this is the case, Ye Qingqing's heart is always on guard. But even so, under Yang Xian's methods, the disciples of the Dongyang Sect were getting closer and closer to Yang Xian's side.

But Ye Qingqing is very worried, the two of them are likely to turn their faces in the future. Rather than killing each other as a last resort, it is better not to have too many contacts in the first place.

Yang Xian promised to help her rescue her father Ye Dongyang. Therefore, in this winter, he personally led 50,000 Changce soldiers to move to the town of Micang Mountain, plus 100,000 Dongyang disciples, and surrounded the Netherworld Prison inside and out, and the power was even greater than in previous days.

Yang Xian's method was the same as her, which was to surround the periphery of the Netherworld, trying to force Lou Jing to submit.

However, Ye Qingqing soon discovered that Yang Xian was supposed to help her save her father, but in fact she had other plans.

On the pretext of oppressing the Netherworld, Yang Xian asked 100,000 Dongyang disciples to build military facilities in various key roads and dangerous places in the mountains. Some places are simply beyond the Netherworld's sphere of influence, and have even reached the side of Yonekura Road.

Mt. Micang is the jurisdiction of Zhounan County in the eastern part of Yizhou. Zhounan County is located, surrounded by water, fertile land, is the best place to Tuntian Tunjun.

Coupled with the fact that it is surrounded by mountains, the four roads from Yongzhou to Yizhou cannot avoid this place in the end. It can be said that this is the military frontier of Shu to resist the Liang army. Yang Xian has already stationed troops here. Ye Qingqing could see that he had already taken precautions against Liang Jun.

These days, Ye Qingqing has come back to his senses. Yang Xian said that he was helping her save her father, but in fact, he used her 100,000 Dongyang disciples as coolies to strengthen and build defenses for him.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingqing gritted her teeth and prepared to go back to Yang Xian to settle accounts.

Yang Xian's Dazhai stands in a valley in the Micang Mountain, and there is only one entrance and exit. The soldiers guarding the door saw that it was Ye Qingqing, and they did not stop her, and quickly let her pass through and arrived at the Chinese army Dazhai.

When the tent door was opened, a stream of hot air came over the storefront. Yang Xian was discussing the military with a group of generals of the Changce Army in front of the sand table, ignoring Ye Qingqing.

"The grain and grass of the army have been deposited in Nanzhong. The city defenses of the three cities of Baocheng, Miancheng and Gucheng have also been strengthened. Is the armament of Baochengguan in place? ”

"Back to the prime minister, 5,000 crossbows and 600,000 arrows have been sent from Xiancheng to Baocheng Pass, and they will arrive in three days."

Yang Xian nodded, "Micang Road is directly connected to Yongzhou. The scattered water was in Liang Jun's hands. If Huan Wu is in trouble, most of the Liang army will use this as a base for advancement. ”

If the Liang army wants to enter the hinterland of Yizhou, it must first get Zhounan County. Baocheng Pass is separated between Micang Road and Zhounan County, if the Liang army abandons it and goes straight to Xiancheng, then there is not only the danger of being cut off from the back road, but also the more dangerous pass Xichuan's gateway Sword Pavilion!

"My lord, I'm worried that the Liang army will send partial divisions from Quegu, Baichuan, and Shiyang to harass the hinterland of our army."

"Quegu and Baichuan have been abandoned for a long time, and the Liang army is sending partial divisions, mostly to explore the road and prepare for the next attack on Shu. The terrain of Shiyang is too steep, and it is unlikely that the Liang army wants to march by this road for several years. Just in case, I have sent rangers to patrol these three paths, and have several outposts built at the mouth of the three valleys, each with a camp. ”

The generals' faces changed, and the meaning of Yang Xian's words was obviously ready to defend the Liang army for a long time.

Ye Qingqing saw it in his eyes and did not immediately attack. For some reason, Yang Xian at this moment did not have the frivolity when he got along with her, and his seriousness made Ye Qingqing a little surprised.

After the military situation was discussed, the generals withdrew from the camp. Yang Xian shook his fan, looked at Ye Qingqing, and asked, "What is the sect leader looking for me?" ”

Ye Qingqing forgot about Xingshi's questioning for a while. She is not a general, and she is not insensitive to military situations.

"Listening to the meaning of your words, it seems that you already know that the Liang army will come to attack Yizhou in the coming year? In order to defeat Youzhou, Huan Wu spent a lot of effort. Shouldn't he have cultivated for a few years before coming to attack Shu? ”

Yang Xian rolled his eyes and said, "Of course! ”

"Why are you so sure?"

Huan Wu negotiated peace with Jing Yun, and did not hesitate to give him the title of Marquis of Yan and let Jing Yun stand side by side with him. It's so eager, if there's no conspiracy behind it, it's hard to believe. Most importantly, I received a letter that counted the ugliness of the old thief of Huan Wu after he obtained the Yan Land, and depicted the arrogant, arrogant, and outrageous ugliness of the old thief. ”

Ye Qingqing took the first step over, and there was a letter on the table behind Yang Xian, and on the envelope was written on the letter of Jing Bei'er, the daughter of Yanhou, to Yang Xian, the prime minister of Shu.

Ye Qingqing looked at it, first with a cordial greeting, a polite gesture about the friendship between the two that was not deep, and then praised Yang Xian's literary brilliance, showing the determination of the Yanshu family and the Huan thief. Finally, he expressed his apologies, stating that the Liang army was powerful that day, and when the Yan army withdrew, he lost two letters from Yang Xiantong scolding Huan Wu, and these two letters were accidentally obtained by Huan Wu in the end, and he vowed to crush Yang Xian after reading them.

The preface of this letter is not long, and the following pages focus on describing how Huan Wu was angry, how sad and angry, and how he swore to the sky that he was inseparable from Yang Xian.

Ye Qingqing was happy after reading it, and inexplicably had a good impression of this woman named Jing Bottle. In fact, anything that can make Yang Xian unhappy can arouse her interest.

"By the way, what is the sect leader looking for me?"

Ye Qingqing's face suddenly pulled down, and he remembered what he was doing.

"Yang Zizhan, how are you going to save my father?"

Yang Xian shook his fan and said something that made Ye Qingqing crazy: "It's better to save yourself than to save others." ”
