"It's a good sentence 'Chess is shocking, and the son cries ghosts', haha...... The old Taoist priest used to play chess with me, but he didn't show his real strength at all! Looking at your game of chess, with its ups and downs, twists and turns, I am terrified when I look at it, I really don't know where you got so many wonders. ”

Feng Tianyu couldn't help laughing when he saw that the old Taoist priest had won this game.

The words of Kwa Wei Xiaohan were good, but in fact they were happy for the old Taoist.

It looked like he had won.

The old Taoist priest looked very calm.

Wei Xiaohan didn't seem to care, he was still full of interest, talking and laughing, and his face was full of joy of reuniting with his old friend after a long absence.

The people talked happily until late at night.

Seeing Wei Xiaohan away, Feng Tianyu and Ouyang Bo returned to the small conference room of the beggar gang.

After a while, Mu Qianmei also came.

Every time there is something important to discuss, they get together without prior notice.

After the three of them sat down, Ouyang Bo first smiled and praised Mu Qianmei:

"The little girl's "Mountains and Flowing Water" played so well, and many people listened to it fascinated. Hehe...... Why didn't I even know about this tune? ”

"I haven't been learning for a long time, so I haven't played it to anyone, old Taoist, your chess skills, I think it's rare to meet an opponent in the Yugu Continent now! Hehe...... How did you get it? ”

After Mu Qianmei answered, she also praised sincerely.

"You little girl, no matter how good I am, can I be as good as you? You invented it! If there is still some progress, it is also thanks to the blessing of the old man! I pulled him to play chess with me whenever I had time, and for a while he didn't dare to go back to the headquarters because he was scared by me. Ha ha...... Of course, when there is no one, I like to ponder on my own, and I can really come up with a clue! ”

When the old Taoist priest talked about chess, he suddenly came to the spirit, and couldn't help but say a few more words.

Immediately thinking of the issue they were discussing, he stopped talking and said:

"What do you think Wei Xiaohan's purpose is here?"

Mu Qianmei replied with a serious expression:

"I think they must have found out something, or heard some rumors, so they came here to test it. His puns when you play chess show that he wants to persuade the beggars not to meddle in this matter, but they don't have clear evidence, so they don't open up to it. ”

"Well, when I heard the tone of his voice, I must have suspected that we were a beggar, the purpose of visiting an old friend, but the drunkard didn't mean to drink! So what's next? Now that they have their eyes on us, it is only a matter of time before they gather evidence. ”

Ouyang Bo asked cautiously.

"Old man, it seems that our peaceful days are coming to an end! What do you think we should do? ”

Mu Qianmei looked at Feng Tianyu and said.

"Isn't the purpose of founding the Beggar Gang in the first place to be to prevent your untimely needs? Since the time has come when we have to stand up, why not do we stand up? With our current strength, we can't be easily defeated! ”

Feng Tianyu said with confidence.

"At the moment, we can choose to deal with them slowly without hard encounters, and give us more time to step up preparations and develop our strength as strong as possible! With the help of Elder Wang, my father has already made contact with some surviving former ministers, and has also secretly contacted some ministers of civil and military affairs in the palace who support my father. ”

Mu Qianmei said calmly.

"A country, the most important thing is military power, now the military power of Yun Yu Country is firmly held in the hands of Yun Tianxiao and his cronies, we must take the military power into our hands before the Eastern Qin action, otherwise, the gang disciples will not have much advantage in the confrontation with the army. No matter how high the martial arts are, they can't stop the crowd! ”

Ouyang Bo grasped the key point and said.

"At this point, I will find my father and Elder Wang to learn about the old departments they have contacted, and see if I can find a breakthrough and slowly infiltrate from the periphery, I believe that when my father takes out the jade seal of the country and waves his arms, there will be many people who will defect."

Mu Qianmei thought for a while and said slowly.

"Well, we have to handle these arrangements as soon as possible, since Dong Qin has begun to try, then it is not far from action. Just like in chess, the chess pieces have already started to move, and the situation will unfold at any time. ”

Ouyang Bo said with some concern.

Feng Tianyu and Mu Qianmei didn't speak immediately, and Ouyang Bo continued:

"As soon as the chess game moves, it should be taken step by step, if Wei Xiaohan's style is like his chess style, he will have several vigorous actions in the future. Under such conditions, if you are not prepared, you will be caught off guard, and if you mess up, you will be passive step by step, and you will not even be able to organize an effective counterattack. The focus of our current preparatory work is one word - fast. ”

"We must do a good job of defensive layout before he launches an attack, and we must first grasp the key things at the moment and deal with them in a timely manner, so that less urgent things can be gradually strengthened and improved during the defense."

Ouyang Bo analyzed very methodically.

"This is the real chess game, old Taoist, in this chess game, we don't have an advantage, we can only wait for the opportunity to counterattack in defense, and we are a little passive from the beginning!"

Mu Qianmei thought for a while and said.

"Chess? It turns out that chess is also related to real war! When you say this, I regret that I didn't learn to play chess well, such an atmospheric chess game, listening to it makes people's blood boil, with the ancient continent as the chessboard, with the resources in their hands as the chess pieces, the actual combat of real swords and guns, it is really a game of chess with great courage! ”

Feng Tianyu listened to the conversation between the two and couldn't help but sigh.

"yes? This is the real chess game, haha...... Little girl, this chess game will be played directly against the Eastern Qin Kingdom by yourself, are you confident that you can win this chess game? ”

The old Taoist priest also asked Mu Qianmei with a dry smile.

"Since it's a chess game, everything is unknown until it's over! In this ever-changing chess game, what we need to do is to calmly analyze the purpose of each move of the opponent, know the opponent and know the self, in order to win all battles. ”

Mu Qianmei was a little nervous in her heart, but she still tried her best to keep a clear head and answer calmly.

"Haha...... Okay, knowing each other and knowing oneself can win all battles, let's hurry up to improve and strengthen our arrangement as soon as possible, and be fully prepared to see how they will move? ”

The old Taoist priest seemed to be full of confidence in Mu Qianmei's chess skills.

"Actually, I think that in the eyes of Emperor Qin Siyong of Eastern Qin, we should not be the main opponent of Eastern Qin, and their strategic deployment will definitely be arranged for the situation of the entire Yugu Continent."

"Therefore, our layout is not just to face the Eastern Qin Kingdom, but to look at the entire Yugu Continent in order to grasp their plan of action."

"The best way to understand what your opponent is thinking is to put yourself in their shoes, to put yourself in their shoes, to see what is best for them."

Mu Qianmei said frankly about her experience in playing chess.

"Think from the opponent's point of view? Hehe...... This is really a good way, just like I play against myself, when I play the sunspot, I think about the purpose of the red man, see clearly before moving the chess, and when I play the red man, I have to find out the best way to move the sunspot's next move. ”

The old Taoist priest also told his experience of playing chess.

"The old Taoist priest is indeed worthy of the two sentences of 'chess is shocking, and the son cries ghosts and gods'! I really hope that in reality, we can still maintain this mentality to play this earth-shattering chess game. ”

Mu Qianmei said with some excitement.

Night.

After Mu Qianmei separated from Feng Tianyu and Ouyang Bo, she returned to the place where her father lived in the backyard alone.

Yun Zhonghe saw his daughter coming over, and couldn't help but ask a little anxiously:

"Die'er, the Eastern Qin Kingdom will actually visit the beggar gang this time, is it the news that I am hiding here has been discovered by them?"

"From their words and deeds, it can be seen that the Eastern Qin State is indeed suspicious, but because there is no real evidence, we are still relatively safe in the short term."

Mu Qianmei replied.

"Now that the Eastern Qin Kingdom and the Yunyu Kingdom will do their best to find out my whereabouts, since they have already suspected it, it is not suitable to stay here for too long, once there is a head-on conflict, the strength of the beggar gang is far from enough!"

Yun Zhonghe said with some guilt.

"Father, since we have to face it, we have to go all out, you have just recovered a little, so you can rest at home with peace of mind. For this bureau, it is destined to be faced, and even if there is no thing to save you this time, we will face an important question - who can be immune from the war? ”

"The matter of us saving my father is just a fuse, and this incident just gave Dongqin an excuse to move."

Mu Qianmei calmly analyzed.

The crane in the cloud couldn't help frowning secretly, and then said:

"It's a pity that our preparations have not yet been completed, and the current situation is very unfavorable for the beggars."

"It's really too late, but if we just want to protect ourselves, as long as we arrange it properly, we still have a good chance."

Mu Qianmei saw that her father was a little lacking in confidence, and immediately cheered up.

"Die'er, I'm so lucky to have such an excellent daughter as you."

Yun Zhonghe said with relief.

"Father, where would I be without you? So Die'er will always support you and get back everything that belongs to us together. ”

Mu Qianmei said firmly.

"Well, let's hope everything goes well!"

Mu Qianmei looked at her father's sad face, and couldn't help but say to the crane in the clouds:

"Father, how about I read a poem and give it to you? It's just long and short sentences. ”

"Well, I'll just listen to the long and short sentences my daughter reads!" The crane in the cloud looked at his precious daughter with curiosity.

So Mu Qianmei slowly opened her mouth and read a song of Li Yu's "Poppy Beauty"-

"When is the spring flower and autumn moon, how much do you know about the past.

Xiaolou had another east wind last night, so the country could not afford to look back at the moonlight.

The carved fence and jade masonry should still be there, but the face has changed.

Ask how much sorrow you can have, just like a river of spring water flowing eastward. ”
