Liu Nong was not wearing armor, wearing a slender arrow robe, carrying Chu Yan on his left waist, and there was a shallow arrow mark on the left side of his face. Blowing the north wind for half a year, Mei Langjun is still clear and jade, but the edges and corners are much tougher, the most is the pair of Danfeng eyes, when the opening and closing, the blade looms.

When he saw Liu Yin returning, Liu Nong looked happy, supported Liu Yin, who was about to meet with a big gift, and said with a smile: "Rong Jia is in his body, why do you need to be polite!" ”

Liu Yin hummed and said: "Xiao Langjun, the etiquette cannot be abolished!" As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Back to Xiao Langjun, the five northern outposts have been completed, with ten people at each post, taking turns to be on duty day and night." If there is any abnormal movement, the fire will be raised as a signal, and it can be seen for hundreds of miles. ”

"Very good!"

The five posts in the north, built on the five hills in the north of Shangcai, are semi-ring-shaped arch guards, which is the important thing that Liu Nong did after going to Cai. Liu Nong knows very well that this move is the second most important thing to prevent Hu from riding, and it is important to reassure the people. At this time, I learned that it was finally completed, and my heart was extremely happy. After a while of encouragement, he came to the barracks.

Shang Cai is the county of Runan, and there was originally a military camp, but it was burned clean by the Hu people. Now, the barracks are rebuilt on the original site, but they are more majestic than before, they are hexagonal, a total of six camp gates, when Jingping is peaceful, only open the gates, if there is a war, they can open six gates together.

There is a battalion in the camp, and the Tiger Devourer, Eagle Yang, Rock, Shuofeng, Shooting, Thunder Falcon and Xun Niangzi's Hundred Flower Essence Riders each occupy a battalion.

Tiger devours 500 people, for the elite of the whole army, and now each person has a set of heavy armor, which can be attacked and defended. There are a total of 400 people in the Eagle Guard and the Hundred Flower Essence Cavalry, including 60 mounted cavalry armor and 12 Hundred Flower Essence Cavalry, which are between light cavalry and heavy cavalry, which can be matched with the mounted iron cavalry and can be used as a light cavalry charge. There are a total of 1,000 people in the rock and the wind, seventy percent of them are wearing half-body armor, and each person has a round shield and a sharp blade, which is the backbone. There are 500 sound guards, all of whom are good shooters, and 100 Thunder Falcons.

The three-zhang high platform rises in the middle of the school field, and the armies are divided into formations.

Liu Nong sat on the stage, Xun Niangzi, Liu Yin, Beigong, Qu Ping, Bo Sheng, Du Wu and others lined up in turn. Liu Nong looked at the battle array in the school field, his heart was surging, if he wanted to live in the promised land, he needed a powerful sword and shield as a guard, otherwise, he would be like a mirror moon splashing, floating in the shadows. With these 3,000 strong troops in hand, they can speak of peace internally, and dare to speak out externally.

After inspecting the barracks, Liu Nong and Xun Niangzi walked side by side in the city, and the rest of the generals were stationed in the camp.

The two walked to the Chengxi County Office, and saw all the way, the streets were still dilapidated, but the houses had been gradually repaired, and there were no longer the snakes and rats in the past, and from time to time they saw people coming and going, all of them were villagers who were closer to the city, and they saw Liu Nong and Xun Niangzi and the guards behind them, and they all avoided aside. Their clothes gradually became neat, their complexions were no longer what they used to be, and the most down-lowered eyes were a little more stable, but less but a lot of haste.

Liu Nong carried his hands on his back, his steps were brisk, but Xun Niangzi was walking slower and slower.

When he reached the west of the city, Liu Nong suddenly noticed that there was one person missing from his side, and when he looked back, there was no one behind him, so he couldn't help but smile and stood at the corner and waited.

After a while, Xun Niangzi slowly walked into view. At this time, the sunset set and brushed on her body, which was exceptionally soft. She followed Liu Nong's example, with her hands behind her back and a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth.

When she got closer, Xun Niangzi said as she walked: "I know why you built a post in the north. ”

Liu Nong did not answer.

She continued: "Don't talk about recovering the city or building a sentry, it is still to expel Li Bei, restrain the forts, and order the Shangcai, all for the sake of the people. The law of civil security can be implemented, and this law is the key point from within, that is, it is externalized into force, and it is attached to the order. ”

Liu Nong said with a smile: "However, there are thousands of people in China, but the number of Hu is multiple, dozens of times, if the program is normal, order can be preserved, if it is tied in the hand, how can it be lightly broken!" ”

"Liu, Zhan, Zhen!"

Xun Niangzi's footsteps suddenly froze, and she spit out Liu Nong's name word by word, and then, leaning sideways, tilting her head, asked, "If it was a few years ago, you dared to act like this?" ”

Liu Nong shook his head and said, "Liu Nong doesn't dare!" ”

"Why?" The corners of Xun Niangzi's mouth curled, and the one behind her also clenched into a fist.

Liu Nong squinted slightly, looked at the dying, and sighed: "Xun Niangzi is well versed in the discussion of soldiers, you should know that at this time, at that time, if there is no ancestral Yuzhou army in front, Liu Nong will not dare to enter the north of the river, and how dare he be strong here." Water is impermanent, soldiers are impermanent, and the same should be true for planning, balance external conditions, measure strength, and never lag behind when brave. ”

Xun Niangzi raised her eyebrows and asked, "What is the time to be brave?" ”

What is the time to be brave? Liu Nong was completely stunned by a question, and the thoughts in his mind were surging, but he didn't know what words to answer, and he couldn't tell her that she was an unknown prophet. If it weren't for the prophets, what would we do? Suddenly, he remembered Han Ling, Han Weng, and Zu Li, and then faces appeared, and the promises he made to Han Weng in the past echoed in his ears. Mei Langjun put one hand behind his back, his eyes flashed coldly, and he didn't make a sound for a long time.

Before he answered, Xun Niangzi waited quietly, staring at him with deep eyes, and gently rubbing a small stone on her toes.

Here, Lan Jing.

After a full cup of tea, the light in Liu Nong's eyes retreated, and he glanced at her obliquely, knowing that she had been secretly visiting herself, and she didn't want to answer, but she couldn't help but want to know what she was thinking about. However, this is blood bravery, not wisdom and bravery. Wise and brave, when you know, things are beneficial, there are disadvantages, pros and cons depend on each other, if you are invincible, you should look for its advantages, you must not see the disadvantages but also! And this, it is the time to be brave! After that, he got up slowly, waved his sleeves and left, his chest was as calm as a lake, his eyes were bright, and his breath was like an abyss.

Xun Niangzi tilted her head and thought for a while, and then quickly caught up and said softly: "The soldiers have a saying: a hundred battles are won, and they are in the middle!" Defeat in a hundred battles, and those who decide the outcome in one battle are also for the top! What you said is just the essence of it, but it is not the same reason, Guan Niang, I have received a lot! As he spoke, he turned a slight swipe at Liu Nong.

Liu Nong returned the salute, and the corners of his mouth cracked silently. Then, the two walked slowly and walked through the alley to the county office.

The county office only repaired the public hall and the east and west courtyards, both as a public office and as a private residence, and the two made a difference, one to the west and the other to the east. Liu Nong stepped on his long shadow and stepped into the east courtyard.

The courtyard is also very small, with only one patio and five or six wooden houses. There is an old locust tree in the courtyard, which is covered by three zhang square garden, and Zhisu and Xiao Heiya are playing chess in the shade of the tree, and Hongxiao is watching the game from the sidelines. Perhaps because the battle was too fierce, the three of them did not realize that Liu Nong had been admitted to the hospital.

Liu Nong smiled slightly, for some reason, the childlike heart suddenly rose, so he turned around and walked lightly towards the three girls, just about to probe to take a look at the battle situation, but Hongxiao suddenly turned his head and looked at each other.

Instantly froze, three breaths, Hong Xiao blinked his eyes, Liu Nong raised his eyebrows, and then, the two of them realized that the distance was too close, and their breathing seemed to be audible, both soft and soft, with an inexplicable meaning.

Eye to eye, lip to lip, only three inches apart.

"Xiao Langjun ......"

"Hmm!!"

Hong Xiao hurriedly came back to his senses, retreated suddenly, leaned back sharply, pressed the snow-white palm on the chessboard, and the chess pieces in the board crackled and rolled to the ground, while Liu Nong let out a dry throat, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Xiao Langjun ......"

"Liu Fujun?"

At this time, the chess weaver and the little black girl saw Liu Nong, and after being surprised, the two of them took a look at the red Xiao with a flushed face, and suddenly, you look at me, I look at you, and then, at the same time, look at Liu Nong, turning his dark eyes.

The venue was extremely quiet and the atmosphere was delicate.

Liu Nong knew that he couldn't explain it, so he simply ignored it, touched his nose, walked into the room quickly, shook his head with a smile, and then walked to the back of the case, and sat down in his robe. took a shallow breath, slowly shook it in his chest, and then, unloaded his waist sword and put it on the desk, picked up the wolf pen, groaned a little, and ran through the book. Since coming to the Northland, he has rarely deliberately practiced calligraphy, but he doesn't know that he has another style and bones under his will.

Hongxiao walked in, the flush on his face had faded, he silently walked to the side of the case, picked up Chu Yan and placed it on the sword frame, and then, returned to the side of the case, lit mustard incense, and said softly: "Xiao Langjun, Counselor Guo and Xue Neishi came, and when they saw that Xiao Langjun was not there, they left a letter. As he spoke, he took out a letter from under the desk and handed it over.

"Letter?"

Liu Nong wondered in his heart, it is extremely difficult to communicate between the north and the south, who will vote for it? When even if he stretched out his hand to take it, the envelope was printed with vermilion, and there were four words on it: Zhan Zhen personally opened. The handwriting is as vigorous as a pine, vaguely recognizable, squinting, thinking carefully, the sword eyebrows are slightly condensed.

When I take it apart, my eyebrows are wrinkled.

Leaning less, he folded the letter in half, put it in his arms, walked out of the room, looked at the northeast direction, and was silent.

The northeast is Yongqiu, after several months of fighting, Zu Ti defeated Shi Hu, and was about to wave the army into Chenliu, but was robbed of grain and grass by Shi Le's army, so he had to return to Yongqiu. Shi Le had this opportunity to breathe, when he even transferred 10,000 iron horsemen from Yecheng into Chenliu, and ordered Shi Hu not to fight easily, and defend the city.

The two armies faced each other across the river for half a month, Shi Le and Zu Ti fought for many years, knowing that his people were difficult to fight, and it coincided with the civil strife in Qingzhou, so he sent people to Chenggao County to repair the tomb for Zu Ti's mother to show goodwill, and sent a letter to Zu Ti, intending to stop the sword and open the border market to each other. Zu Ti did not reply to the letter, but he had to account for the plan of Changshi Luolong, let go of the border market, and buy grain and horses on a large scale. When Shile heard this, he immediately ordered men to exchange horses for iron.

And the letter in Liu Nong's arms comes from Yanzhou Xijian. Xi Jian will secretly enter Yongqiu at the beginning of next month and meet with Zu Ti. Xi Jian said in the letter that he hoped that in Yongqiu, he could see Liu Nong's side.

To see, or not to see?

Liu Nong's eyebrows tightened more and more, Xi Jian treated him with deep affection, and it was extremely difficult to come to Yuzhou, and it was inevitable to see him. However, would you rather not be embarrassed? Besides, why did Xi Jian go to Yongqiu? Could it be ......

"Father!"

Just when Liu Nong's mind was spinning, the little black girl who was playing chess suddenly let out a soft cry, interrupting Liu Nong's thoughts, and then Xue Gong and Guo Pu arrived together.

Behind the two, there was one man. (To be continued.) )
