Chapter 367 It Turned Out to Be Him (Second Watch)
The dock fort in the Valley of the Night Wolf is called the Night Wolf Castle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info was originally built by the Xin clan of Yangjun to guard the spiritual stone veins here, but now, it has become a place of refuge for various families in northern and central Hebei.
On the tower of the castle about twelve zhang high, Xin Qiji looked solemn and looked at the dense camp tent outside the valley.
At this time, his friend Zhang Heng, who was not far from him, was fiddling with a huge, kite-like object.
Seeing this, Xin Qiji was impatient, turned his head and looked at his friend with contempt: "It's already a catastrophe, do you still have the leisure to fiddle with these playthings?"
"It's because of the catastrophe that I need this thing. ”
Zhang Heng smiled and looked calm: "I am the art of the Mo family, you don't understand, don't underestimate it. You and I have reached the heavenly position, so naturally it doesn't matter, but they can only rely on this thing to leave the Night Wolf Valley,"
Xin Qiji's expression condensed slightly, he glanced at the 'kite' carefully, and then shook his head: "You are so unoptimistic? This night wolf valley terrain is dangerous, rare in the world, and it may not be impossible to hold it." ”
"I call this preparedness, and if I really want to prepare when the city is broken, it will be too late. ”
Zhang Heng stood up and glanced out the window, his eyes full of helplessness: "And the ending of this Flying Wolf Castle is not obvious? Although your dock fort is strong, it is not inferior to these big cities in Yunzhong Mayi, but the grain and grass stored here can only supply the needs of 200,000 people for a month at most. And the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and there are no reinforcements outside. It is estimated that it will be very good to be able to keep it for seven or eight days. Now I just want to build a few more wings like this before this for my family and friends to flee to. ”
It was this fellow who died of his own accord and brought in so many people and goods. If there is only one Flying Wolf Castle, the Huns will come to attack after taking the wrong medicine, and there will be no risk of lack of food.
Xin Qiji had nothing to say, only a heavy punch smashed on the wall next to him, and his face showed hatred: "This Xiongnu army has been ravaging Jizhou for more than ten days, but the court still has no movement!
He gritted his teeth and said: "That Guyuan Lu clan is also annoying! Watching the fire from the other side, sitting back and watching us and other places in northern Hebei and central Hebei being poisoned by the Xiongnu but not helping! It's ridiculous that we and other families have respected their clan for hundreds of years, and the court has always regarded it as the head of the horse, thinking that it can be protected under its wings. But when there is really trouble, it is abandoned!"
When Zhang Heng heard this, he couldn't help but smile coldly. He knew that in this Flying Wolf Castle now, dozens of large and small families were boiling with resentment towards the Lu family. But in Zhang Heng's opinion. This couldn't be more ridiculous.
Throughout the thousand-year history of Qin, the Xiongnu in the north have been difficult to commit more than once, and there are as many as 12 records of entering Jizhou alone. And the most recent one, just seven years ago, was defeated by Li Yixian, the Marquis of Guangwu, in the clouds. Although the Guyuan Lu clan is located in eastern Hebei and has more than 200,000 troops, how many times have they stood up in the past thousand years?
But this Northland clan didn't know how to be vigilant, and soon after the war, they went to pick up the stinky feet of the Guyuan Lu clan again. Not only did they forget the previous lesson, but they also didn't know that it was the Great Qin Imperial Court that guarded the northern border for them, not the Guyuan Lu clan.
This time was especially serious, following the people of the Lu clan to oppose the Heavenly Saint Emperor, although they kept their own private land and hidden households, but it also made the imperial power weak, and they had to turn more attention to the Kwantung countries.
Today's difficulty, their Jizhou family can be said to be to blame.
For example, today, the Holy Emperor is unable to aid the north, and the Guyuan Lu clan is watching from the wall, leaving only the big clans in southern Hebei and Hebei, all of whom are like ants in Rewo. Running around, but there is no way out.
With a little contempt in his heart, Zhang Heng immediately sighed again. In fact, this is helpless, the power of the Jizhou family in the court is already weak. If you don't hold the unity party, you will not be able to stand in Xianyang.
Looking at this state, only the Wang family of Jingbei County can convince the public, and there is no other choice.
Don't look at the past two days, the heads of all the families have sworn that after repelling the Huns this time, they will join forces to make the Guyuan Lu family regret this day. But after the incident, many of them still had to obediently return to the Lu clan and cheer for their clan.
There are very few people who really want to oppose the Lu family.
"Are you still counting on the Lu family? I heard that the Lu clan has a population of 200,000 in recent years, and their land is actually not enough—"
As he was talking, Zhang Heng's expression suddenly moved slightly, and he looked at the other side carefully. Then he rubbed his eyes in disbelief: "Abandon the disease, look at the other side, are you retreating?"
Xin Qiji heard this, looked at the other side carefully, and then his face suddenly showed surprise: "It's really retreating!"
The tens of thousands of military tents on the opposite side actually had the potential to pull out the camp overnight!
But at the same time, a doubt rose in the hearts of the two - why is this?
At this moment, Xin Qiji only heard that under the stairs, there was a person who stepped on the stairs urgently. There was a sound of 'oh oh', and at the same time a cheer came: "The head of the family, the head of the house! Good news, great news! The envoy of the Wanzhou Festival, supervising the military victory of the Wanzhu Dynasty, annihilated Peng Yingyu at the mouth of Loufeng three days ago, and the day before yesterday, he had led an army of 200,000 to go north to the south of Hebei!"
"Ying Chong?"
Xin Qiji recognized that the voice was his butler Xin Chen. But at this moment, he was stunned for a while: "Who is this person?
"Ying Chong?"
Zhang Heng said thoughtfully: "Could it be the one who inherited the Duke of An Guo?"
"An Guogong Yingchong, the head of the four evils of Xianyang?"
Xin Qiji couldn't help but look strange, thinking to himself that it was impossible, right? That was a well-known straw bale waste, he had seen it when he entered Beijing before, and just because he lost a fighting cricket, he gathered the four evils to smash other people's shops, it was really ridiculous to be a human being.
Such a person can lead the army? That well-known gentleman can also be the envoy of the Wanzhou Festival and supervise the military of Wanzhou?
"It's An Guogong!"
Xin Chen finally reached the top of the building, and with an excited expression, he sent a rune book to Xin Qiji: "This is a letter sent by the clansmen outside, risking death! That adult's soldiers are really sharp and unparalleled! On the 25th, 30,000 troops were raised in Xie County, and Tang Shenhao was defeated in the early morning of the 26th, and Wuyang was broken on the 27th; and then on the fifth day of the fourth month, this man waved his troops north again, and completely destroyed Peng Yingyu at the mouth of Loufeng. It is said that Peng Yingyu and Tang Shenhao Tu Qianniao had all been killed in battle, and in 10 days, they had defeated as many as 700,000 enemy soldiers. ”
When Xin Qiji heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Zhang Heng in horror. Then, in disbelief, he unfolded the talisman. The content is about the same as Xin Chen's narrative, but with a few more details.
Xin Qiji looked at it for a long time before handing the talisman to Zhang Heng, who was curious, and muttered: "This An Guogong, it seems that it is really not simple. ”
Although he still has doubts about some details, now that Yingchong's garrison in Suzhou is true, the sudden withdrawal of the Xiongnu also has a reasonable explanation.
Zhang Heng over there also sighed softly: "It's not simple, I, Zhang Heng, am blind and can't recognize heroes!"
A few years ago, he had also seen Ying Chong, but at that time, he only had contempt in his chest.
ps: Haha, there are still twelve votes left, and the three watches will be prepared immediately, which is expected to be completed before eight o'clock. (To be continued.) )
