"As soon as I entered Xinyang City, I heard that Mrs. Shicai was able to fight the town of Yuanhou, and ordered him to retreat three miles, which has the demeanor of the old lady of Baili Mansion back then." As soon as Wang Chao met, he praised aloud without hesitation.

Noya looked left and right, and saw that someone had noticed this place, knowing that it was not appropriate to talk here, so she looked for a secluded place again, and ordered Bingluo and Yuanbao to be vigilant, before she spoke eagerly: "Why did you come here too, what is the matter?" ”

Wang Chao was not verbose, and went straight to the point: "It is for the matter of the Ninth Master." ”

Hope suddenly rose in Noya's heart, and grabbed his hand: "You have news of him?" What happened to him now? ”

Wang Chao comforted: "Madame, don't worry, the ninth master is safe and sound now." ”

Finally, there is news from Baili Jiu, how can Noah not be in a hurry? She let go of her hand and asked anxiously, "I heard that he is unconscious now, how can he still be said to be safe?" ”

"The Ninth Master is now guarded by the Shenji Battalion of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and outsiders can't approach it at all. But our people heard that among the soldiers they were with, there were local Miao people in Yunnan, saying that Jiu Ye was not seriously ill at all, but a kind of Gu in Miao Jiang, so he was dizzy, and the whole person was like a fool and delirious. ”

Nuoya was still apprehensive about Miao Jiang's Gu poison, and her complexion changed when she heard her words: "Gu? Why are they so vicious? ”

"Madame, don't be impatient, this is just an ordinary medical Gu, it is maintained by medication on weekdays, and the symptoms can be reduced when the drug is stopped, and it is not difficult to solve it. Now the main problem is, I have received news that the reserve 20,000 troops of the Marquis of Zhenyuan will arrive in Xinyang City at night at the latest, what are our chances of winning? ”

Noah shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I'm just bluffing, in fact, I only mobilized 3,000 garrisons. Now the Henan County Guard is trying to find a way to mobilize troops and horses, but it is not very optimistic, because Henan County is adjacent to the capital, there are no troops to adjust. ”

Wang Chao nodded, as if in anticipation: "The three princes of the court are well-informed, so the emperor does not dare to mobilize the army in advance." Moreover, we really didn't expect that the Ninth Master would take action so quickly, and the incident happened suddenly and caught us off guard. Now that Fan Shimou has surrendered, the second prince must have taken a clearance action in the court, and the army will arrive soon, so we can only delay as much time as possible. ”

Bingluo and Yuan Bao also heard the conversation between the two, and interjected and asked, "Then do your people know where the Ninth Master is being held now?" If there is a ninth master pressing the formation, it will definitely not be a problem. ”

Wang Chao shook his head: "For the time being, the specific location has not been discovered." I heard that in addition to the people of the Shenji Battalion, the county lord of Anping also guards day and night, and they are inseparable. ”

"If you really haven't given up yet!" Noah hated to think that she had really been cheapened at the beginning, and she would have endless troubles after leaving her today.

She turned around and left, Wang Chao's eyes were quick, his body shook, and he stepped forward to stop her.

"Where's Madame?"

"Naturally, he broke into the camp of Yuanhou in his town and rescued Bailijiu."

The shameless An Ping actually shared the bed with Ah Jiu every day, she couldn't bear it, she coveted Ah Jiu for a long time, and now she got what she wanted, and she didn't know how much she secretly took advantage of, and how much tofu she ate Ah Jiu. It's like the pastry she holds in the palm of her hand has been bitten by someone else, no, it's a lick, and she can't stand it for a quarter of an hour.

"Madam, let's not talk about it for the time being, there are thousands of troops and horses in the Yuanhou barracks in that town, and the ninth master is unconscious, you can't save the ninth master alone. Even if you can save it, have you thought about the consequences? The Marquis of Zhenyuan has no support to fight against you and the old general of Baili, and he is angry and ashamed, can he still calm down and continue to stand still? Can we resist? Now it's a matter of moving the whole body! ”

"Fight it, it's a big deal to fight for your life! I can't just watch Ah Jiu in their hands. Even if I can't save Ah Jiu, it's enough for me to kill her Anping with a sword. ”

Bingluo stretched out his arm to block her way: "If that's the case, what is the Ninth Master going to the trouble of letting me rescue you?" ”

Yuan Bao echoed: "If a family of three falls into their hands, how can the old general be embarrassed?" Did Kaesong surrender? Besides, as soon as you leave, there is no leader in this place, and there are anti-army spies in the government, and they are desperate for chaos, do you ignore the lives and deaths of thousands of people in Henan County? ”

Noya wanted to say, other people's lives and deaths are my business, thinking about the damage to the reputation of Baili Mansion, I can only swallow it, and I will hold back the anger in my body, and I have nowhere to vent, so angry that I can't wait to cut off two bricks on the city wall and crush them.

"What if I stay here? I don't know how to lead troops, I don't know how to fight, what is it to pile this responsibility on me? ”

Noya in the rage was terrible, and Yuan Bao shrank behind Bingluo in a knowing manner, and muttered: "But you are our backbone, and you are the jealousy of the Marquis of Zhenyuan." Besides, if we have to go, it's better to let me and Bingluo go, we have a lot of strength and can carry the Ninth Master. ”

The ingots were just an unintentional remark, but they made Noah's eyes light up, and he looked Bing Ling up and down, and hope flashed in his eyes.

Bingluo immediately understood, raised his head and chest, and asked Noah for his life: "Yuanbao is right, let me go!" ”

Noah hesitated slightly: "Such a danger, are you afraid?" ”

"Madame looks down on Bingluo?"

To put it mildly, but with fearless determination and courage.

"Madame, no! I hope to focus on the overall situation. Wang Chao spoke out again: "Before the reinforcements arrive, you can't easily startle the snake." ”

Noah turned to face him and said categorically, "Ice Spirit must go!" I don't care what method you use, you have to find a way to send Bing Ling into the military camp of the Marquis of Zhenyuan. Only when Bing Ling stays by Ah Jiu's side and protects his safety can I rest assured. ”

Wang Chao was quite embarrassed: "The military discipline of the Marquis of Zhenyuan is quite strict, and now it is an extraordinary period, everyone is vigilant, how easy is it to talk about?" ”

"I don't care, even if it's to let the Ice Spirit take your place. I can find someone to disguise the ice spirit. ”

Wang Chao lowered his head and was silent for a moment, finally made up his mind, raised his head, and said in a deep voice: "Okay! I'll take a risk, everything is arranged by me, tonight, the town is far away from the camp of the camp, naturally someone will respond. Your new identity, Squad Leader Han Gong. ”

At the moment, the background and characteristics of this person, personality traits, etc., were briefly told to Bingluo, and Bingluo was full of joy and secretly remembered it.

This trip is extremely dangerous and the responsibility is heavy, Noya really hates to replace it, but he can't, patted Bing Luo's shoulder, and said solemnly: "If you have the opportunity to fight with Na Anping, don't show mercy just because she is a woman, remember to slap her a few more times for me,"

Bingluo also nodded solemnly: "Yours and the Ninth Master, there are two copies in total, and I have smoked them all." ”

Yuan Bao also tiptoed and patted him on the shoulder, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Long snack, huh?" ”

Bingluo slapped it over: "You just go with greed." ”

Yuan Bao dodged, tried to shrink his stomach, and pouted disdainfully: "If it weren't for Bao Ye, my body size is a little special, do you think Madam will let you be a dumb wood?" ”

Bingluo snorted: "Let you do what, what else can you do besides being beaten?" ”

"You have to rely on your brain to do things, especially at this time, it's not better than doing it with your fists, and you have more eyes on your own."

The two of them were bickering, and Bing Luo knew the kindness of the ingots, and immediately busily contacted the killer who was proficient in disguise techniques, preparing to lurk into the camp of the Marquis of Zhenyuan.

As soon as Bingluo left, Noah had another assistant to rely on, and at this time it was already chasing ducks to the shelves, and she had to take on the responsibility of guarding the city. She asked Zhanqing for a military map of Henan County, and discussed the garrison of the city wall with Yuanbao and the leader of the garrison who came with her.

In the middle, there are constantly people from all walks of life mobilized by Henan County Guard, and Zhanqing is responsible for compiling them and arranging them to be on duty. The number of people is small, from various yamen and camps, which can be described as uneven, inevitably chaotic, and people's hearts are scattered.

Noya briefly inquired about the positions and abilities of several leaders with troops, she didn't understand the size of the official position, she mainly valued skills, assigned positions according to their specialties, and those who had experience in actual combat command on the battlefield stayed to be responsible for command and defense, and those who were full of words were also responsible for logistics and supply, pacifying the people in the city and boosting morale.

In total, it is only eight or nine thousand people, and in terms of numbers, it can barely compete with the current army of the Marquis of Zhenyuan.

However, over the years, Bailifu has guarded the border passes, the country and the people, these generals are usually negligent in management, and they rarely practice, just pretending to be proud, and few have really fought on the battlefield, and the weapons in their hands are rusty. They looked lazy and lazy, as if a gust of wind could blow them down, and they were all loose sand. Noah was worried that at a critical juncture, the enemy attacked violently, and I was afraid that everyone would be stunned, and the birds and beasts would be scattered in an instant.

And the soldiers and horses of the Marquis of Zhenyuan are just the opposite, there are many wars on the border of Yunnan, and the soldiers are all real swords and guns on the battlefield.

Under the pretext of transferring troops everywhere, Henan County Shou had already fled and disappeared, and he was also greedy for life and afraid of death, so he couldn't count on it.

Only Zhanqing, the general defending the city, was more familiar with the situation here, so he temporarily followed Nuoya and led Nuoya to inspect the surrounding environment.

At this time, Nuoya knew very well the meaning of "born in sorrow and died in peace", and the imperial court equipped the local defenders with a lot of weapons and equipment, some of which were quite sophisticated. But because Da Chu has not had a major civil war for decades, some of the equipment has been abandoned. Even the trebuchets had mushrooms on them, not to mention the delicate chain crossbows, which were damaged six or seven times out of ten.

The soldiers were lax and rarely practiced, and the arsenal was littered with discarded arrows and spears, swords, rusty, and covered with cobwebs. In addition, it was also full of lime powder, tung oil, and some lime powder that had been prepared for the war without knowing when.

It was too late to repair those bows and crossbows, and the ingots behind him couldn't help but sigh: "It would be good if Guanluo's kid was here, and he would make the same powerful weapon in three or two strokes, which would definitely be enough for the Marquis of Zhenyuan to drink a pot." ”
