Chapter 1022: Stepping Stones

The atmosphere in the military tent was so heavy that people couldn't breathe.

Wang Lang had already been ordered to leave, and another clerk stood beside Qiao Jing tremblingly, holding a booklet to report the number.

What is the loss of the two granaries, how much grain and grass is left at the moment, and how long can it support the battle......

Regardless of the number, it makes people feel that a sword hangs over the door of the head, and the line on the hilt of the sword will break as the countdown comes.

Qiao Jing vomited a mouthful of blood before, and there was still blood in his mouth at this moment.

This is an internal injury, which is more painful than being slashed directly and blood flows.

At the beginning of the war against the imperial court, Qiao Jing did not expect that the advance of the war would be like this.

He leaned back in the big chair and sneered.

It is said that heroes are young people, and other people's sons are better than the other, and the sons he raised are similar in age to Cheng Jinzhi, Duan Baoqi and others, and his ability to urge him to die is not lost at all.

Qiao Jing had the idea of rebellion for a long time, but he was not well prepared, he wanted to wait a few more years to see the situation, but he didn't expect the saint to let the children of the generals enter Beijing.

He sent Qiao Yun out as an outcast, and Qiao Yun really sought death by himself and threw the problem back.

Qiao Jing naturally borrowed the opportunity to start the army.

I thought I could catch the court off guard, but I never thought that I was stopped by Su Ningbo, who was not drunk and didn't want to drink.

After that, the steps are restricted.

If not, it should be you who come and go, even if he Qiao Jing can't get out, the court doesn't want to enter Shu easily!

The more Qiao Jing thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, he had already issued a gag order not to tell the soldiers below the news of the attack on the granary, but this kind of thing could be concealed for a day or two, but it could not be concealed for a long time.

Even if he insisted on not retreating from the Hezhou battlefield and without supplies, he would not be able to fight.

As for how to reorganize after retreating, it depends on Wang Lang's harvest.

Thinking of Wang Lang, Qiao Jing somehow suddenly flashed a thought in his mind.

This articulate young man, he defected to his command, did so many things, and saw that Shu Di was defeated, what would he do?

Wang Lang's enemy is only Jiang Muyuan, and he doesn't care if Qiao Jing wins or loses.

I could still use the Shu army as a revenge knife before, but since the knife is not good......

Why not throw it away?

It's human nature to throw it away!

Will he really go and beg for food and grass?

"Go," Qiao Jing said, "Go and chase Wang Lang back!" ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone on the side looked at each other.

Qiao Jing's second son, Qiao Xun, stood up, took a few steps forward, and asked in a suppressed voice, "Father also suspects that Wang Lang?" The more the son thought about it, the more wrong it became, and he offered a plan to gather the grain and grass, and if he secretly informed the enemy of the situation of the grain storage, then ......"

Qiao Jing's breath stopped.

Qiao Xun's thinking is different from his, and it is more terrifying than his.

If it is really as Qiao Xun thought, Wang Lang has been latent from the beginning......

After walking through so many cells that night, he really didn't find Cheng Jinzhi?

In the past few months, how much news did he send to Su Ningbo?

Did he hand over all the number of sailors, so that Su Ningbo had thought of a way to deal with it in advance, and had already designed the perimeter outside Zhijiang City?

He seemed to stabilize the Lu family, but he also took this opportunity to walk in all directions and gather all the grain and grass in one place......

Qiao Jing only felt that another stream of blood gushed out of his throat!

The deputy general on the side was also incredulous, and excused Wang Lang: "The team carrying grain last night really hit Gu Yunxi's face......

"Since he is in charge of operation and scheduling," Qiao Xun said, "how do you know that last night's encounter was not what he expected?"

The two orders before and after, when the second order for that team was issued, only Wang Lang knows!

The arrangement is just a disguise left by Wang Lang after the raid on the granary! ”

"Since the second master saw it, why did he ......?"

Qiao Xun said angrily: "I just figured it out!" That scholar is cunning! ”

"What is he trying to do? He's a down-and-out scholar......"

"He wants fame and fortune! Picture a splendid future! Qiao Jing laughed angrily, patted the handrail and said, "Ridiculous!" I, Qiao Jing, have become a stepping stone for him to soar! ”

Wang Lang's father is a sinner, he can't go on a career in this life, and his knowledge is useless.

But he can take advantage of Shu to lurk and make meritorious contributions, not to mention letting Wang Fu'an enjoy his old age in peace, he himself will be able to rise to the top.

If you don't take the official career, you will jump into the dragon gate the same!

Qiao Xun said: "Doesn't he still have an old mother and wife?" Those two are now in Xuzhou, and they ordered to go to Xuzhou and catch those two mothers-in-law! ”

"If he wants to save his father, how can he ignore his mother and wife?"

Someone asks, and someone thinks.

One person went to find a son of the Lu family among the soldiers, led him to Qiao Jing, and asked him to repeat everything Wang Lang said in the Lu family that day.

The Nalu family is a younger generation, and they have never heard it with their own ears at that time, but they have also learned something from their elders.

After Qiao Jing listened, his face turned green, red, white, white and black!

Qiao Jing didn't know the gist of that remark before, but before he got to the point where he was now, he didn't think at all that if it was useful to the Lu family, it could actually be applied to Wang Lang.

"Calculate fame and fortune by human life".

Every life has a value.

If Qiao Jing killed his mother and wife, it would be to give Wang Lang a boost so that he could jump higher.

If you don't kill, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in your heart; killed, but it was Wang Lang who benefited.

How can Qiao Jing not be angry?

There was another person in the tent who didn't say anything from beginning to end, he felt that it was inappropriate to convict Wang Lang by inference, but he felt that Qiao Xun's idea made sense.

Suddenly, there was another shout outside, and in the next moment, the fighting roar continued.

The heralds rushed in, shouting: "The enemy has rushed in!" ”

Qiao Jing was furious, and when he stood up, another mouthful of blood spurted out.

In the past, it was customary for such a stalemate situation, after Mingjin withdrew his troops, neither side would attack with all its might, but left the spare strength to fight again tomorrow.

But today, Su Ningbo seems to be out of the way, he wants to fight to the death and force Qiao Jing to withdraw from the Hezhou battlefield.

Qiao Jing was about to go out with a knife, but he was held up by the left and right, persuading him to keep Qingshan, and vomiting blood again and again was no longer suitable for fierce battles.

How could Qiao Jing swallow this breath!

He was helped out of the big tent, helped up his war horse, and watched his camp fall into a mess under the onslaught of the court soldiers.

The troops of Shu could barely be prepared, but the soldiers of the imperial court shouted and burned two granaries while fighting, and the army's heart was scattered all of a sudden.

This battle ended with Cheng Yan's single-handedly interception of Qiao Xun.

Qiao Jing returned to Luzhou with the remnants of the army, and gave up Tongchuan Prefecture and Chongqing in one day.

Except for those Miao aliens, there are not many prefectures and counties in Qiao Jing's hands, and he can no longer easily hold the rest.
