Tan Zhaoyu doesn't care about these false reputations, "Being able to kill the enemy is a good knife." If this method is feasible, I will have a few more blast furnaces to make iron-made weapons in Qiuchi. Even if time is tight, at least the elite of the main force must have a new weapon in their hands. ”

He Lu said happily: "I have figured out a lot of mechanisms before, if there is this new iron, maybe I can make it." ”

Tan Invite Yu is very dependent on He Lu now, and said directly: "If you need anything, ask Qin Zhongzhi for it." Before we leave the Walker Building, if you can produce a few good weapons, I will reward your son well. ”

He Lu nodded with a happy face, "Cheng Xian Ji Ji Yan!" ”

Seeing that He Lu and Shigong were going to continue to fight another sword, Tan Invite Yu and Yun Daosheng took the first step to leave.

Out of the refining room, Yun Daosheng hesitated and spoke, "Senior sister, can't I really go to Qiuchi with you?" ”

Tan Yuyu patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "Don't worry." Even if I really want to fight with the Northern Wei army, I will definitely not let Uncle Xiao be hurt in the slightest. Besides, my master is also here, he will definitely be able to protect my little uncle. ”

Yun Daosheng nodded, he knew that he would only become a burden to invite rain if he went. So I had to suppress the worries in my heart and promised, "I will do my best to calculate for my senior sister." If there is an accident, we will send you a message as soon as possible. ”

Tan Invite Yu smiled and thanked him, "When you say that, I suddenly feel a lot more relieved." ”

-- The Dividing Line --

After Yanzhi received the emperor's order, he set off from Jiankang with the Huaiyin Water Army. But he didn't want to really confront the Northern Wei army head-on, so he found various reasons to delay the trip, only marching about ten miles a day, crawling to the border like a snail.

And his deputy general, Duan Hong, because he led 8,000 elite cavalry, both horses and weapons were well-equipped. This person was dedicated to meritorious service, and it only took seven days to rush to the Hu Army Battalion and officially take over the post of commander of Tan Daoji.

Duan Hong was also terrified for a few days at first. In order to save his life, he let the eight thousand elite horsemen he brought take turns to rest. Four thousand men must be guaranteed to be on alert at all times.

Of course, this is not to prevent the Northern Wei Dynasty from coming, but to be afraid that the military camp will mutiny, so that he will be unjustly killed.

To Duan Hong's surprise, the entire Lake Army Battalion was surprisingly calm. Although the soldiers of Hulu showed obvious dislike for Duan Hong and his eight thousand elite horsemen, none of them really disobeyed Duan Hong's orders.

Duan Hong naturally didn't know that Tan Daoji had sent someone to explain it a long time ago, and strictly forbade the soldiers of Hulu to make any rebellion against the imperial court because his handsome seal was taken away.

In Duan Hong's view, those people in the DPRK and China are exaggerating. What Lake Army Battalion cannot lead troops unless Tan Daoji, and what Lake Army is actually the Tan family's pro-army and private army.

The so-called catastrophe is coming, and they fly separately. The people of the Lake Army are not fools. Anyway, they are all working for the imperial court, is it possible to hang themselves on the crooked neck tree of the Tan family?

After sitting firmly in the position of commander in the army for nearly a month, Duan Hong had an expansive misjudgment of his deterrence and ability to lead the army. Under the circumstance that Tan Daoji's original cronies repeatedly backed down, Duan Hong decided that these people couldn't make any waves. Instead of keeping it by your side all the time and watching out day and night, it is better to cut the grass and eradicate the roots directly.

So Duan Hong asked people to smuggle a batch of military rations out to sell, and then directly detained this crime on several Tan Daoji's cronies. Let the four leading generals be trapped on a large wooden stake in the camp. After a day of exposure, he ordered people to be severely tortured and made to hand over the silver taels obtained from the sale of grain.

Several people refused to admit their guilt, Duan Hong was anxious to establish his authority, so he simply let people continue to be tied up like this to set an example.

It's just that Duan Hong didn't know that although his military rations were secretly bought from his cronies, he bought the grain shop in Qingzhou. But the entire shop in Qingzhou is under the control of the Zhu family's firm. As soon as Duan Hong's talent revealed that there was a large amount of grain to sell, the people of the Zhu family had already spread the news to the Xingshi Building.

Tan Invite Yu also arrived at the Xingshi Building before he learned about his father's Shuai Yin being taken away. At first, Tan Zhaoyu was quite happy, firstly, he thought that his father should finally see the face of the royal family crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, and secondly, he felt that once the Northern Wei Xingbing went south, Liu Yilong would have to beg his father to take back this handsome seal again.

It's just that Tan Yuyu didn't expect that Liu Yilong would be deceived by Yan Zhi. This Lake Army Battalion fell directly into the hands of Duan Hong, who had never heard of Tan Yuyu.

Just when Tan Zhaoyu wanted to directly let Duan Hong die forever, Tan Daoji's letter was delivered.

In the letter, he first lamented that he was about to break his promise again. I thought that I could have a good chat with Invite Yu when I returned to Qingzhou this time, but now I was ordered by the emperor not to leave Jiankang. He earnestly asked Invite Yu not to interfere in this matter, and he had already written to inform the generals in the army, asking them not to disobey Duan Hong's orders because of himself.

Tan Daoji still thinks that the emperor's suspicion of him is only temporary. As long as the Tan family can prove their loyalty, the emperor will definitely reuse and trust the Tan family again.

At the end of the letter, he also told Yu Qian that if the life of the Seventh Prince really can't be saved, let her protect herself first.

Although Tan Zhaoyu knows that Tan Daoji's approach is the most prudent at present, and it is also "focusing on the overall situation", this does not mean that Tan Zhaoyu agrees with this kind of concession without a bottom line.

Sure enough, Duan Hong had only been in the handsome position for a month, and he began to change people.

Even if Tan Daoji warned Invite Yu not to meddle in this matter, Tan Invite Yu couldn't watch her father's cronies be unjustly killed like this, these were all generals of her uncle's generation.

Bringing people and riding horses, the "Northern Wei Army" composed of 3,000 Lu Shuihu and the descendants of the Ying clan quietly ambushed next to the Hu Army Battalion by taking advantage of the night.

This is also thanks to the fact that Yu Yu came to the barracks once before, so she knows a little about the layout and blind spots of the entire camp. Tan Yuyu straightened the imitation of the Hu Army's military uniform on his body, and glanced at Gai Wu next to him.

When Gai Wu received it, he immediately lit the torch in his hand, and then raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar. Before the whistle fell, countless torches were lit up near the barracks in an instant, and the sound of horses' hooves was like a wave, mixed with the shouts of Xianbei words, which instantly alarmed the entire Huhu Army Battalion.

"The Northern Wei army is coming——!!" I don't know who shouted in the Lake Army Battalion, and the sentry heard it, and it was just a gong warning shot, but at this time, he naturally shouted, "Enemy attack!" Enemy attack! The Northern Wei army is coming——! ”

The soldiers who were resting woke up from their sleep one after another, completely unaware of where the Northern Wei army came from!

Duan Hong ran out wearing his shirt and pants, looking around in a panic, "Where did the Northern Wei Army come from?!" When did they cross the river!? Why didn't Ben Shuai receive any news from the Northern Wei Dynasty! ”

But at this time, the leading generals of each battalion were trapped on the pillar and dying, and the ordinary soldiers had no one to command, and they were all in chaos, and they couldn't even put out a basic formation to resist the enemy for a while, who would pay attention to what Duan Hong was shouting?
