Chapter 269: Ready to Go

The ensuing gathering was lively and touching.

Because the people who came here to build the city wall were people from various towns in Feixi County, who may not have seen each other before, let alone knew each other, but after this time, many people have become friends and brothers with each other.

So that kind of cohesion between each other suddenly went up.

Behind the city wall, it has been completely covered with green bricks, which can be used to garrison troops in the future, but today it is used for cooking.

All the people involved in the construction gathered here, dozens of people gathered around the fire, eating dry food, drinking broth, chatting, bragging, reminiscing, and laughter came far and wide.

By this time I was already standing on top of the city wall, looking at the endless grassland in front of me, a small river that meandered, and behind it was the core of the county. Turning around, he looked out of the city wall, and the moat was in sight.

It was a wall, a wall that stood in the way of the world, but only I knew in my heart that sooner or later I would have to cross that wall and go into it to build my own world.

However, at present, it does not have the ability to take the initiative to attack, on the one hand, there are few soldiers, and there are 400,000 troops in the Tianqian Pass alone, and if you want to break the defense of the Tianqian Pass with only your own 200,000 troops, I am afraid it will be very difficult.

It is even impossible, because the height of the moat pass is much higher than the wall built by himself, and there are mountains on both sides, so it is almost impossible to cross the mountain and attack directly into the interior.

Therefore, the moat in front of him is really the same as the moat, and it is difficult to overcome.

At this time, Gongsun Ce stood silently beside me and did not speak.

"Gongsun Ce, when do you think I will be able to wrestle and walk there?" After speaking, I pointed in the direction of the Heavenly Trench Pass.

"My lord, I believe in a sentence, since you have chosen the road, don't be afraid of the long way. Although this hurdle is difficult to overcome, I believe that we will succeed in overcoming it one day, and it will not be too long. ”

At this time, Gongsun Ce stood with his hands in his hands and said quite confidently.

I turned my head to look at Gongsun Ce next to me, smiled and didn't speak.

"My lord, do you think I'm too blindly confident? Actually, these self-confidence are given to me by you, my lord, and before you came, no one knew that Feixi County could develop like this, including me. ”

"Even my two younger brothers have left in despair, but I believe that this is not the end of all this, and with the trade with the barbarians, I believe that Feixi County will get better and better. ”

"At that time, I will conscript you into the army, 200,000 can not be crossed, I will use 400,000, 400,000 if 40 people can't be enough, I will use 800,000, I believe, as long as we want, we will definitely be able to. Absolutely!"

At this time, Gongsun Ce clenched his fists and waved in front of him, and the vigorous and confident aura instantly infected me.

I took a deep breath and sighed to myself, "yes... As long as we have dreams, what can stand in our way!"

Then there was no word, Gongsun Ce and I stood silently on the top of the city tower, looking into the distance, and we didn't talk to each other.

And just when the city wall was just built here, Xiang Wentian of Tianqian City knew about it, but he didn't take it seriously, because at this time, the entire dynasty was already in chaos.

The military salaries and grain that should have been transferred to Feixi County were also detained by Xiang Wentian privately.

Although Tang Tiande has always asked to stop it, Xiang Wentian understands that people are building city walls on their own territory, what is in the way of you, you go to stop it, what reason do you use to stop it?

On the contrary, what Xiang Wentian is most afraid of now is one thing, that is, to ask Tang Tiande to transfer troops, because there is my town guard outside, so the garrison of Tianqian Pass is a bit redundant.

Just today, on the day of our lively celebration of the completion of the city wall, Tang Tiande once again patronized the city lord's mansion.

At this time, in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Xiang Wentian was sitting on the main seat drinking tea, while Tang Tiande was pacing in the hall, constantly chanting words in his mouth.

At this time, Xiang Wentian put down the teacup, sighed and said, "I said Old Tang, you may not be wandering, I am dizzy when you are wandering, you have something to say, nothing to drink tea." What a fool of you!"

Tang Tiande, who was pacing, was stunned for a moment, then looked down at Xiang Wentian, and replied lightly: "Old Xiang, you are not in a hurry at all, the city wall built by Su Xiao's turtle grandson has been completed today, so difficult that you are not in a hurry at all?"

"What's the hurry?" Xiang Wentian was stunned.

"It's so hard that you don't know, Su Xiao's turtle grandson already has an army of 200,000, has he already reached an alliance with the barbarians? Now he has built a city wall here, which is obviously guarding against us!"

At this time, Tang Tiande was extremely anxious, his feet still stopped, and he kept pacing.

Hearing Tang Tiande say this, Xiang Wentian poured himself a cup of tea, and did not speak immediately, but fell into deep thought.

Then there was only the sound of Tang Tiande pacing back and forth in the entire hall.

After thinking about it for a while, Xiang Wentian's eyes lit up, and then asked, "Old Tang, are you sure that up to today, not a single urgent shipment from the Imperial Dynasty has been sent to Feixi County?"

Tang Tiande waved his hand impatiently and said, "Definitely not, I dare to pack tickets for this, those who have entered the Tianqian Pass for a long time are all old acquaintances, and there are few strangers in and out until now, so I dare to pack tickets at this point." ”

"It seems that the little guy should have discovered something and knew something, so he built the city wall, which is good, it is self-protection, and it is ugly, this is ready to show his minions!"

At this time, Xiang Wentian was holding a teacup and looking out of the door, as if he could see Feixi County.

Hearing Xiang Wentian's words, Tang Tiande stopped pacing at this time, and directly made his butt on a chair, picked up the teacup and poured it and asked, "What do you mean, Lao Xiang, this turtle grandson is still preparing to attack us?"

Xiang Wentian put down the teacup and nodded gently, and then said: "He built the city wall, as you said, to prevent us from suddenly sending troops to attack directly." Before, he couldn't hold on at all. ”

"And now that he is guarding the walls, he can plan for the future. On the one hand, we can't attack easily, otherwise with his 200,000 army, it will be difficult for us to defeat it, and on the other hand, it is this city wall that firmly grasps Feixi County in our hands. ”

"Regardless of whether we close the moat or not, only once he closes the city gate, then Feixi County is a lonely city, how he develops, what it becomes, no one knows. ”

"So, it seems that this turtle grandson still has some ideas in his heart, and it seems that we are going to test a thing or two. ”

At this time, he thought about the problem and rotated the wrench on his finger and calmly analyzed.

"Temptation one?" Tang Tiande was stunned, not knowing what Xiang Wentian meant.

"Well, it's just a test or two, I'll send him a letter tomorrow and invite him to come to the meeting, this wall is built, we can't say we don't know, right?

At this time, the corners of Xiang Wentian's mouth showed a sly arc.

"It's... Lao Xiang, I'm afraid that turtle grandson won't come to the banquet, now in this situation, even if there is no secret letter delivered, but that turtle grandson doesn't know at all, at this time, if he comes, hell!"

At this time, Tang Tiande surprisingly raised an objection, because Tang Tiande felt that the probability of such success was not large!

"Hmm...."

After Tang Tiande said this, Xiang Wentian thought about it, too, just under the pretext of congratulations, why did people come? It would be good for people to write back to express their gratitude, and there was no need to thank them in person.

After being silent for a moment, Xiang Wentian's eyes lit up, and then said, "Old Tang, how about you say that the two of us will go directly to Feixi County to visit?"

When the words fell, Tang Tiande did not reply immediately, but fell into thinking, the current Tang Tiande is no longer the stupid Tang Tiande before, at that time, he did not dare to bear the charge of rebellion.

And now that the dynasty is in turmoil, no one cares about them anymore, and he now has an army of 400,000 in his hands, which is a force to be reckoned with, so he is not as respectful to Xiang Wentian as before.

After a moment of silence, Tang Tiande asked, "What is the excuse for visiting? It won't just mean to congratulate the successful construction of the city wall, right?"

Xiang Wentian glanced at him without a trace, and the corner of his eye revealed a trace of killing intent, and then hid it well, and said casually: "That turtle grandson still has 100,000 troops' military salaries, grain and grass here." ”

"I haven't sent it yet, I'm going to explain, it's not that I don't send it, it's that the dynasty didn't give it to me!"

Xiang Wentian sneered, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Tang Tiande thought about it, it was okay, and he went to visit under the pretext of apologizing and explaining, and that guy couldn't object.

Thinking of this, Tang Tiande nodded approvingly and agreed.

After a brief discussion between the two of them, Tang Tiande resigned.

Xiang Wentian was still sitting there drinking tea, as if he was very thirsty.

It's just that Tang Tiande had just left the hall for less than a moment, and from behind Xiang Wentian, a secret door opened suddenly, and a person wrapped in a black robe walked out.

didn't speak, sat directly next to Xiang Wentian, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip directly.

"This old Tang is anti-hearted, and he is a little out of my control. ”

The black-robed man put down his teacup, and a hoarse voice came out of the black-robed man's mouth, "Of course, now that they have an army of 400,000, what are you asking the sky? ”

"What do you have besides some money and food? Don't think that the city guards are still under your control, that's impossible!"

Hearing this, Xiang Wentian was stunned and did not answer.

"So, you can either kill the two of them directly, or you can put down your attitude, cooperate with them, and wait for my lord to do it, and the three of you will go south in one fell swoop to help the lord establish victory. ”

"At that time, the glory and wealth were inexhaustible, not to mention that one person was above 10,000 people, but the one acre and three points of land around the Tianqian City were still up to you to ask the sky!"

The hoarse voice stopped abruptly and didn't continue!

"What the envoy said is true? You didn't lie to me! Don't let me work hard to help the Lord ascend to the throne, but in exchange for killing me!"

The words of the black-robed man directly hit Xiang Wentian's weakness, so Xiang Wentian had to think about what he had to face next.

"Since I am here, what I say is what my lord means, so you can rest assured that the lord of the city. There is also that Feixi County, no, you and Tang Tiande will take Feixi County back!"

After speaking, the black-robed old man got up and left directly, leaving Xiang Wentian alone.
