Su Dingfang's tent is a huge tiger-shaped building, covering an area of nearly 3,000 square meters, as soon as you enter the tent, the first thing that enters the field of vision is a super huge sand table, which occupies nearly 300 square meters, which is the overall topographic map outside the Tang Dynasty.

Su Dingfang was standing in front of the sand table at the moment, his eyebrows were locked, he was holding a small flag in his hand, he was plugging and pulling it out on the sand table, and when he saw Lei Yun coming in, he immediately showed joy on his face, and immediately stepped forward, grabbed Lei Yun who was about to salute, and said in a loud voice:

"Excuse me, wait for you to be so old for a long time, the food is almost cold, I'm starving, eat first."

There are six small dishes on the small round table next to the sand table, a pot of wine, the dishes are not exquisite, just ordinary, the layout of the whole handsome tent is also extremely simple, in addition to the big sand table, there are only a few necessary furniture, and they are all very old, but the weapon rack is very conspicuous, the weapons on it are cold and shining, and it is a rare good weapon at a glance.

It turned out that Su Dingfang was extremely honest and honest, advocating frugality in life, although he was a general and held a huge amount of money, but he did not seek the slightest personal interest for himself, worked hard for the affairs of the country day and night, worked hard, and was extremely generous to his subordinates, and was deeply loved by the officers and soldiers of Xuanwu, and it was precisely because of this that Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Empire, loved him very much and entrusted him with important tasks.

After the four of them sat down, Su Dingfang beckoned a few people to eat, and at the same time picked up a thick noodle flatbread first, rolled a green onion stained with sweet noodle sauce, and wrapped it in a sauce pig's nose, and ate it sweetly.

After Su Dingfang took a big sip, he saw that Lei Yun and the three of them didn't move their chopsticks and just watched him eat, so he was a little stunned and said:

"How many of you eat, do you think my food is not good?"

When Lei Yun heard this, the three of them hurriedly made a set of each volume, and after eating it, it turned out to be extraordinarily delicious, so they all ate it in a big gulp, of course, Lei Yun couldn't eat this, so he had to continue to nibble on the Poria cake, Meng Yuan said while eating the corners of his mouth:

"I really didn't expect that you, the general, would dominate one side and live so frugally, which really makes me feel ashamed."

Su Dingfang smiled slightly when he heard this, and said:

"I know that the three of you are now full of money, and now it is not what it used to be, and it is a little aggrieved to let you eat this."

Without waiting for Lei Yun and a few people to speak, he immediately changed his words and said:

"However, since you are still members of the Xuanwu Army, then you should be strict with yourself according to the standards of a soldier, you must not be overindulgent, and you must always be ready to stain the territory with blood for the country."

After speaking, he looked around at the three of them, then his eyes stayed on the thundercloud, and said leisurely:

"Especially you, my chief military officer, you seem to have not been to the barracks for a long time, are you not satisfied with the position I have arranged for you?"

Hearing this, Lei Yun immediately got up, hugged his fist at Su Dingfang and said:

"The general misunderstood, Lei Yun is a fairy fate, some things are simply involuntary, as for the affairs of the army, he has never dared to waste it, at present, the military food reserves are sufficient, as long as the general gives an order, the supply of military food on the front line can be guaranteed."

Su Dingfang nodded when he heard this, and said:

"Although the affairs of you immortals belong to the top secret of the empire, I know a little bit about it, and you don't have to explain too much, but this time I want to attack the Liusha River fortress of Zhu Ziguo, you must go out with the army, I have written to the imperial court, and specially allocated 30 million catties of military rations to the military rations, which will be transported in a few days, and after you receive it, the 200,000 troops will immediately go to the army."

Lei Yun was stunned when he heard this, but Su Dingfang laughed, took his hand and came to the sand table, stretched out his hand and inserted two small flags, and then pointed to the sand table and said:

"Thunderclouds, come and see, this quicksand river is eight hundred miles wide, and there is only a wooden suspension bridge about 5 meters wide connecting the two banks, which is a natural danger.

In order to control this natural danger, Zhu Ziguo built a fortress on each of the bridgeheads on both sides of the river, across the river, aided each other, and held the suspension bridge to the death, not only completely blocking the trade route from our Datang to the Western Regions, but also relying on the natural danger, he sent troops to harass the border of our Datang for a long time, killing people and setting fires, and doing all kinds of evil. ”

After a pause, he said:

"If we can take these two fortresses of the Liusha River, it will be equivalent to taking the natural danger for ourselves, not only can we open up trade routes, but Zhu Ziguo will no longer be able to intrude on the border of my Datang.

For many years, our Xuanwu Army has been responsible for fighting against Zhu Ziguo, but due to terrain restrictions, it has been in a defensive state, and it was not until the completion of this Gao Laozhuang fortress that it finally had the possibility of attacking. ”

After speaking, he laughed, patted Lei Yun's shoulder and said:

"This is still thanks to your merits, and now we are facing a golden opportunity, last time the seventh prince of Zhu Ziguo Cheri escaped by luck, but did not return to Zhu Ziguo, but stayed in the Liusha River Fortress, and secretly transferred 100,000 troops from the country, ready to counterattack at any time.

Fortunately, God bless me in the Tang Dynasty, King Zhu Zi suddenly became critically ill, and in order to inherit the throne, Che Liman hurriedly returned to the capital with an army of 100,000 to compete for the throne with several other princes. ”

When Su Dingfang said this, he couldn't help but rub his palms excitedly and said:

"The original main general of the Liusha River Fortress is Shamoman, the descendant of the fourth prince Che Li Hu, this time Che Li Man occupied the fortress, so he took away his military power, just let him be responsible for guarding the Golden Wolf Fortress on the other side of his own border on the other side of the Quicksand River, and the Quicksand River Fortress here are all Che Li Man's own descendants, Che Li Man returned to China in a hurry this time, and only 50,000 defenders were left in the fortress, only 50,000."

Hearing this, Lei Yun thought for a while and said:

"That quicksand river fortress is a natural danger, and the opposite side can send a steady stream of reinforcements through the rope bridge, even if there are only 50,000 defenders now, as soon as our army moves, they will definitely send reinforcements."

Su Dingfang smiled slightly when he heard this, and said:

"There can be no reinforcements, because that Shamoman has secretly surrendered, he was rewarded with five million taels of silver, named the Duke of Fuguo, hereditary replacement, and the general superintendent of Jianye Customs, it can be said that the glory and wealth have been extreme, Shamoman has secretly sent the family to Chang'an to show his loyalty.

This Shamoman knew that the fourth prince Che Li Hu was not Che Li Man's opponent, and Che Li Man ascended the throne, and he would be implicated in the reckoning, so I sent someone to persuade him to surrender, who knew that it was so smooth, hahaha, God really helped me Datang. ”

Su Dingfang took a sip of tea and continued:

"The best thing is that although there are as many as 50,000 defenders in the Quicksand River Fortress at present, they are divided into three forces and cannot form a joint force, which is a miscalculation by Cheri, he sent Yadan as the main general of the fortress, and also arranged for Mu Lijie and Huo Moke, who are not in harmony with Yadan, as deputy generals, originally to prevent Yadan from sitting big, but I don't know that in this way, this Quicksand River Fortress will be surrendered to me."

After that, he picked up two small flags, planted one on the left and right sides of the quicksand river fortress, and then said proudly:

"These two places are the barriers of the Liusha River Fortress: Tiger Pass and Xiong Zhen Pass, which are the main battlefields of our operation, I want to annihilate all the defenders of the Liusha River Fortress in these two places, and then go straight to the Golden Wolf Fortress, and completely turn the Liusha River into my Datang."

When Lei Yun left from Su Dingfang's place, it was already afternoon, and Su Dingfang only gave Lei Yun and Meng Yuan three days to take care of their personal affairs, and they had to go out with the army after three days, so as soon as Lei Yun left Su Dingfang's handsome tent, he asked Meng Yuan to go to Chang'an City to contact Zhang Jianxing to join the team immediately, and he hurriedly returned to Yunzhan Cave.

As soon as Lei Yun arrived at the entrance of the cave, he met an acquaintance, it was Ye Tianxiao who had been waiting here for a long time, Lei Yun remembered the previous agreement between the two when he saw Ye Tianxiao, and hurriedly apologized, and then invited Ye Tianxiao into the Neon Clothes Feitian Inn next to the Yunzhan Cave, and told Ye Tianxiao about the process of obtaining his official position.

Lei Yun saw that Ye Tianxiao was leaving, and immediately said to stay:

"Brother Ye, it's not early, why don't you stay for dinner and leave?"

Ye Tian waved his hand with a smile and said:

"No, I'll go back to the exclusive room to eat, eat well and save money, and I'm going to go to the dart game to bet on darts and earn some silver taels."

Lei Yun was stunned when he heard this, and said:

"Darts? The silver taels earned by doing that can't be exchanged for points, and can only be used in Chang'an City, what's the use of us people? ”

Ye Tianxiao looked at Lei Yun carefully when he heard this, and saw that Lei Yun was brightly dressed and obviously mixed well, so he said with a wry smile:

"Brother Lei seems to be not short of silver, do you know that to integrate into the normal life of this dream Chang'an City, silver taels are even more important than points, food, clothing, housing and transportation in Chang'an City, nothing can be separated from silver, only once a month to do tasks, other times you can't nest in an exclusive room every day and not go out, right?"

After speaking, he shook his head helplessly, turned around and left, his back was full of the vicissitudes of life, and he really couldn't bear to see Lei Yun, so he was going to send him some silver, he touched his body, but found that he didn't have a silver ticket today, so he had to smile bitterly and shook his head, and let Ye Tianxiao leave.

After Lei Yun returned to his and Chu Lianyi's residence, he suddenly found that his pet storage space lit up with a red light, and when he saw it, he was immediately shocked, it turned out that his Xuan Bee intimacy had dropped to 60, and if it continued to decline, Xuan Bee was about to escape.

Thundercloud hurriedly released the Xuan Bee from the pet space, as soon as the Xuan Bee came out, he immediately screamed at the Thunder Cloud as if protesting, and then flew around the Thunder Cloud twice, Lei Yun saw this and hurriedly took out a bunch of food, the Xuan Bee ate unceremoniously, and the intimacy barely rose to 61 points.

At this time, Chu Lianyi happened to come back from shopping, followed by more than a dozen small people who were moving things, holding dozens of boxes large and small, piled up a hill on the ground, Lei Yun didn't have time to talk to Chu Lianyi, she saw the Xuan Bee who was eating at a glance, and immediately cheered, ran over and kissed and hugged the Xuan Bee, the Xuan Bee seemed to be particularly intimate with Chu Lianyi, and the tentacles kept rubbing on Chu Lianyi's hair.

Maybe it's because Chu Lianyi and Xuan Bee are both Lei Yun pets, so the communication between one person and one bee is very smooth, and after a while, Xuan Bee and Chu Lianyi are inseparable, Chu Lianyi also deliberately chose a rockery with a hole for Xuan Bee as a temporary beehive in the garden on the west side of the cave.

It turns out that this west garden is actually the back door of Yunzhan Cave, the garden is directly connected to the valley of the mountain behind Yunzhan Cave, because this Fuling Mountain is the largest mountain group outside the Tang Dynasty, so the valley is also very large, nearly 100 square kilometers, the whole valley is surrounded by the surrounding mountains, and there is no exit, so if you want to enter this valley, Yunzhan Cave is the only entrance.

Because the valley is inaccessible, the natural environment is maintained very well, and there are strange flowers and plants everywhere, towering giant trees, and the Xuan Bee immediately liked it as soon as he saw this valley, leaving Lei Yun and Chu Lianyi and flew into the valley, and he couldn't call it out.

Although the Xuan Bee ran into the valley and did not come out, Lei Yun found that the Xuan Bee's intimacy began to rise automatically, and it did not stop until 70 o'clock, and it was already late at night, so Lei Yun pulled Chu Lianyi back to rest.
