When the funeral procession of the princess of Chu went out of the east gate, the king of Chu stood on the side of the street with Ning Jiu, watching the procession away with a blank face, until the last person entered the city gate, he pulled the reins, twisted the horse's head, and galloped towards the north gate.

After a short time, he crossed the Lanjiang River and headed north, and if things went well, his vanguard should have conquered Xiaomanzhen, the northernmost part of the Lanjiang River, and let the large army advance smoothly.

Fighting horses all the way, not taking waterways and mountain roads, Han Tong was not at ease, so he sent someone to answer halfway, and finally took the king of Chu into the camp at noon.

Murong Mian threw away the reins and strode into the boss's camp, "How is it?" Have you taken it? ”

"It's easy to capture a small town like that." Han Tong said with a smile, "Bai Changjian probably didn't expect us to take a long detour and attack an inconspicuous town, and we didn't do anything to prevent it. His iron cavalry battalion is good at land warfare, and our cavalry is not bad," he walked to the sand table and pointed to a place, "According to the prince's will, after the vanguard troops capture Xiaoman Town, turn around and march westward, deploy controls along the way, and then turn back to the north, so that the enemy can not figure out our intentions." Take advantage of its unpreparedness and attack its important town. ”

Murong Mian sat down and looked at the sand map, "Bai Changjian can be named the god of war, there must be something special, don't be careless, I may not meet him in a short time, but everything is in case, pass the order, if you meet Bai Changjian, don't hurt him, you must capture him alive." ”

Han Tong was puzzled, "Lord Wang, capture the thief and capture the king first, as long as you kill the boss, the stragglers below will naturally not be angry, as soon as your old man's prestige comes out, they are not scared to the point of urine, and we will win without a fight." ”

Murong Mian was silent for a moment, "His surname is Bai." ”

Han Tong said, "Lord Wang, there is no friendship to talk about on the battlefield, he is the general of Emperor Laozi's Dianyuan, if we don't fight him, maybe he will fight us......"

Before he finished speaking, someone hurriedly lifted the curtain and came in, knelt on the ground, and arched his hands above his head, "Lord Wang, I just received the news that Bai Changjian's people burned our six newly built warships. ”

"Look, what did I say," Han Tong spread his hands and looked right, "This time has already burned our six ships, isn't it now?" He asked the soldier who reported the news, "When was it burned?" ”

"It's dawn, it's dawn."

Murong Mian let out a rare laugh, "I really know how to pick the time." The smile was light and cold, and the little soldier kneeling on the ground did not look up, but shook for no reason.

Han Tong was stunned for a moment, and waved his hand to let the little soldier out, "So, isn't it because we made the first move that Bai Changjian fought back?" Could it be that there are internal ghosts in our people who have leaked the news? Why is the time so accurate? We're attacking his town, and he's burning our ships. ”

Because he went to the house to mourn Bai Qianfan and knew the time of her funeral, the time was just right. Fortunately, I finally met a person who met an opponent in chess, and his surname was Bai, and he was a little interested in this eldest brother who had never met, the prince of Chu.

"It seems that my previous estimate was correct," with this voice, the prince stepped in, "I said earlier that Murong Han transferred Bai Changjian to the edge of Weishui, it must be useful, sure enough, even if we still stand still today, they will definitely do it, so it's good, no one comes first, no one has lost the opportunity, and this battle is interesting." ”

"Why is the second brother here," Murong Mian raised his eyes to look at him, "You don't have to worry about the war, this time, you will definitely go to Lin'an City in one go." ”

"I don't worry about you," said the prince, "and you are too busy to take care of anything, and I have to watch from the sidelines." ”

Murong Mian smiled bitterly, "What do I have to worry about, I didn't have a base before, so the second brother went with me, and now the south has become a climate, and I can't do without people, so the second brother should go back to Suzhou City." ”

"Don't drive me away," the prince looked at him carefully, "I didn't sleep last night, I will eat later, go to bed early, recuperate, and march tomorrow." ”

Han informed the prince of the meaning of the prince, the king of Chu was thoughtful, although he looked as usual, his temples were dyed white, he had just arrived and stood up, it was the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and these two touches of Chinese hair made people feel sad. Acacia is too much, it's not a good thing, an inch of acacia is an inch of gray, day after day, year after year, it will slowly boil out the essence and flesh, and become depressed. He is now bent on avenging the princess, except for the war, he really can't take care of anything else, he and Ning Jiu can be counted as talking in front of the king of Chu, but their advice, the king of Chu may not be able to listen, the prince is different, he is a king, and he is also a brother, and his face King Chu may be sold.

"What did you say?" The corners of Bai Changjian's mouth sank, "They captured Xiaoman Town in the morning?" ”

"Yes, I just got the news," Guan Xiong said, "they have unknowingly bypassed the hill and captured Xiaoman Town, and the general can't guess what their intentions are, why are they so close and far away that our large army is here?" ”

In this way, they did not take the lead, the old fox of the king of Chu seems to have already made arrangements, he burns the ship here, and he attacks the town there...... It was obviously the day of the princess's funeral, so he came to this hand, could it be ...... He touched his chin, his brow furrowed.

Yes, the king of Chu used the funeral of the princess of Chu as a cover, deliberately confusing the public, wanting to confuse them, the death of the princess of Chu and the prince of Xiaoshi...... Maybe there is something else wrong, looking for the king of Chu to take revenge, it seems that he has found the right person.

Fortunately, he had already made arrangements and burned the other party's ships, which was a tie.

Bai Changjian unfolded the map and circled Xiaoman Town with a pen, and was also a little puzzled, what were they doing to occupy Xiaoman Town, just an inconspicuous town......

He took his hands and paced around the room, "How's the reaction from the sailor's side?" ”

"Naturally, we have strengthened our vigilance, we want to burn the ship again, I'm afraid it won't work."

"The king of Chu did not use a water division, but walked the mountain road, thinking about it, he also knew that we were guarding here, it was a one-man pass, ten thousand people could not be opened, and it was impossible to break through, now we don't need to go south, they ran over by themselves, since they want to attack, let's defend it." He groaned slightly, "Tell the brothers to keep an eye on the sailors on the other side of the river, and if there is any movement, immediately report to me, in addition, send people to Xiaoman Town, they probably want to use Xiaoman Town as a breakthrough point, bypassing us and marching north, the mountain road is rugged, not conducive to the march, you send two elite teams over, don't block head-on, stick diagonally from the left and right, disrupt their team, let them wander around the mountain for a few more days, and wait until they are exhausted, and then eliminate them one by one." ”

Guan Xiong's eyes lit up, "This is a good way, if we contain their vanguard army, and then break them one by one, it will inevitably boost our morale, the King of Chu is not strong enough, presumably the mountains and rivers are far from having time to support, and they will definitely suffer heavy losses." ”
