After a while, someone in front of me shouted, "It's your own people!"

When the team walked around, it was Hu'an Mountain Boat Master Wu Baichang Tianqi and Sanmiao Village Master Pan Furong.

It turned out that the warriors of the Hu'an Mountain tribe were chased by the Chu general Fei Wuyong, and they scattered and scattered, but most of them were quite smooth and retreated to the vicinity of Batong City.

The main general Mu Cheng and the deputy general Pu Yancang counted the number of people, most of them arrived, but the most important person was late, and the two were anxious, and hurriedly went to borrow a guide from Ba Dong, the main general of the Ba Dong military camp, and went back to find them by different routes.

Mu Cheng knew Pan Furong's thoughts, and deliberately arranged her to go all the way with the boat master Wu Baichang Tianqi, and they were the first to find the target.

When the two Pakistani soldiers met, everyone was overjoyed.

Pan Furong said to Meng Long: "Childe, I'm worried about you all the time!"

Chu Wei sneered: "The master of the village is upright. ”

Pan Furong hurriedly said: "Which of us doesn't worry about the son!"

Yu Menglong smiled: "Thank you!

While walking back, the dream dragon told Pan Furong and Tutian about the escape experience.

Tutian ruler and Pan Furong both sighed: "Gongzi Jiren is a natural person, and he has divine help." ”

According to the "Ten Dao Chronicles": "Chu Zi destroyed Ba, Bazi brothers, five people, flowed into Guizhou, Han has the world, the name is You, Chen, Wu, Wu, Yuan and other five streams;

Some people say that the Chu State once destroyed a Bazi State before the Ba State in Jiangzhou, and the tribesmen fled into Youshui, Chenshui, Lishui, Wushui and Qushui (i.e., Wuxi), which is now the border of Hunan, Chongqing and Guizhou. If this argument is correct, then the tribe where the "Youshui Pulsatilla" is located may still be a branch of the Ba people.

More likely, they were one of the former Yongguo Baipu.

Get back to business.

All the samurai, except for the dead and wounded, had retreated to the vicinity of Ba Dong.

Stationed on the spot for more than half a month, according to the news reported by the spies: Chu general Qu Rong has retreated to Wuling, hundreds of miles away from Batong, and his general Fei Wuyong drove into the ruins of Qu Rong's military camp, cutting down trees and preparing to rebuild.

According to inaccurate information: Fei Wuyong intends to impeach Qu Rong.

This news is indeed inaccurate, although Fei Wuyong was dissatisfied with Qu Rong's appointment as the chief general of Guzhangba, he did not come forward to impeach Qu Rong, he thought that with Qu Rong's defeat this time, there was no need to say anything.

As it turned out, it turned out to be as Fei Wuyong expected.

For many years, Qu Rong has studied the military, economy and other aspects of Pakistan, thinking that the opportunity to show his skills has come, but he suffered a big defeat in the first battle.

King Xuan of Chu received the seal and scolded Qu Rongjian for talking about the army and wanted to punish his crimes, and the minister Zhao Xixian and others thought that thousands of troops were easy to obtain, and it was difficult to find a general, especially the generals who knew so much about the enemy country, they were really treasures, and persuaded each other on the grounds that "winning the army is a common thing in soldiers".

The king of Chu then ordered Fei Wuyong to temporarily replace Qu Rong, and Qu Rong returned to the capital to introspect - here I will talk about it first.

Ba Xiu, the coach of the Pakistani army, got the information, and after analyzing it with the generals, he believed that it was possible to Qu Rong, an opponent as terrible as Yangming, and he was powerless for a while, and he would not pose a threat to Ba Tong in the short term.

In addition, it is already in the early winter season, and it is not the time to use soldiers.

So, Ba Xiu ordered the withdrawal of troops.

Before the withdrawal of the army, the local leader of the clan of the Snake clan held a banquet to entertain the generals from all walks of life, and sent condolences to the samurai from all walks of life who came to contribute.

Ba Xiu explained the follow-up requirements to Ba Dong, the commander of the Ba Dong military camp. In fact, he was very relieved about Ba Dong, as long as the Chu army did not attack in a big way, it would not be the next meal of the experienced Ba Dong and Yu Jun at all.

Unlike others, after winning the battle and returning to Hu'an Mountain, Hu'an Palace's son Hu Menglong's heart was even heavier.

First, on the way back, he went to visit the future Lord Taishan and Gongjun, the leader of the major clans of the Communist Clan, and was received lukewarmly.

Gongjun didn't need to say anything, he said a few words politely, but the future wife-in-law Gongbiao and Gongshi Gongxin said some painless things to him, and even deliberately avoided things related to Gongpeach.

This made Gu Menglong, who had never really been in a better mood since his sister Mengyu disappeared and his fiancée Gongpeach was placed under house arrest, felt like he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle.

But this is not all the reason why Menglong is depressed.

During the more than half a month that Ba Yu was stationed waiting for the retreat order, during the communication with his friends in the capital, especially with the famous Chinese official of the Liugongzi Mansion who came with the army (the son-in-law of the great wizard of Hu'an Mountain), Yu Menglong inadvertently received two inaccurate news:

First: According to the well-known analysis of the situation obtained afterwards, Hu'an Palace's Zhongqing Xiangshan secretly played a role in the incident of Huan Mengyu being forcibly given marriage by the lord of Pakistan; at least, Xiangshan had long known that there would be a marriage, but he did not report any news to Hu'an Palace.

In the eyes of Gu Menglong, who is accustomed to being the master, this is a good act, one is disloyalty, and the other is a traitor to seek glory.

Second: The solemn assassination of Zhongqing before that year may be related to Xiangshan.

These two incidents are events that have a significant impact on Hu'an Palace, and when Yu Menglong obtained these two news, he didn't investigate them carefully, he believed it to be true, and he was almost to the point of hating Xiangshan. But he is a stuffy gourd, only in the heart.

Of course, it is impossible for the Menglong to suddenly explode just because of these two things. These two things only played a catalytic role.

As the saying goes: freezing three feet is not a day's cold.

The Menglong person, who has a very different personality from his father, is deep and thoughtful, and has been taught and influenced by Deng Lu, Jian Jian, Yu Chang, Zheng Zheng and others, and has great ambitions.

As he grew older, he was also arrogant in his heart, thinking that he had big ideas for the sake of the country, and even the situation in the world.

In the process of seeing Menglong's mind getting heavier and heavier, winter is coming, and it snows on Hu'an Mountain, wrapped in silver makeup, which is extremely enchanting.

On this day, the lord of Pakistan rewarded the warriors of Guzhangba, and the chief of grain and grass of Hu'an Palace, Tho Huai, personally went to the capital and transported it back in the wind and snow. He was very happy to do this, and he was also happy to distribute the rewards proposed by the mountain master to the meritorious personnel according to the order proposed by the mountain master Mu Cheng and the prison army Zhu Menglong.

In the afternoon of the next day, a small banquet was held in the Hu'an Palace, and the main officials of the Hu'an Palace, the chief generals of the two divisions, and Wu Baichang in Hu'an Mountain attended the banquet, enjoying the special aquatic products such as Baxiang Qingming wine from the fish belly (now Fengjie), elephant trunk fish (white sturgeon) from the Yangtze River, precious fruits such as five-step glaze from Banan, and even konjac (konjac) from near Jiangzhou (now Yongchuan).

When the wine was half-drunk, Yu Menglong made a suggestion.

As soon as this discussion came out, controversy arose, and it was more lively than drinking.
