Chapter 299 Ambition

Shangguan Xiu pondered for a while and said, "If you destroy the entire Qixi clan, I'm afraid it will cause the Shah tribes to attack our Feng army, right?"

Suba shook his head again and again, and said firmly: "No! If the other great clans are destroyed, the tribes may still have the same hatred, but if the Qixi tribe is destroyed, the tribes will only applaud." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Moreover, the fact that the Wind Army can destroy the Qixi Clan in one go shows that the Wind Army's combat power is strong, and even if the other tribes want to be enemies of the Wind Army, they have to be afraid of three points!"

After a pause, he smiled again and continued: "Of course, I won't let Lord Shangguan do me a favor in vain, and I can transfer all the 300,000 taels of silver that the people of Ningnan gave me to Lord Shangguan." ”

300,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, and if you use it to buy military rations, you can buy hundreds of thousands of stones. Shangguan Xiu rubbed his chin and thought about it seriously.

Suba said again: "In addition, I can also send a team of clansmen, dressed as the Wind Army, to assist Lord Shangguan in infiltrating the hinterland of the Qixi Clan to sneak attack. ”

Well, in that case, there is really no reason to refuse. Shangguan Xiu's eyes rolled, smiled, and said, "Since the Suba Patriarch has already opened his mouth to ask for it, how can I have no reason?" As he spoke, he picked up his wine glass and took a sip of wine happily.

When Suba heard this, his face was happy, he looked up and smiled, picked up the wine glass, raised it to Shangguan Xiu, and laughed: "Okay, Lord Shangguan, we will make a decision!" He raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup.

Putting down the cup, he wiped the beard on the side of his mouth, and said to Shangguan Xiu Zhengse: "Lord Shangguan, I still have to advise you again, don't lead the army into Ningnan to fight, as long as you can ensure that Lord Shangguan is safe and sound, I don't want the territory of the Qixi people." ”

Now that Shangguan Xiu has become the actual ruler of Zhenjun, he has a heavy army, and with the relationship between Suba and Shangguan Xiu, of course he doesn't want anything to happen to the latter. Once Shangguan Xiu has three longs and two shorts, and someone else takes power, it is not certain whether Zhenjun will continue to maintain a good relationship with the Ba people.

Suba's ambition is very big, what he wants is not just the one acre and three points of land of the Qixi people, but wants to be the king of the entire Shah region, if he only relies on the strength of the Ba clan, I am afraid that he will never be able to achieve this goal, Suba's biggest hope and reliance at present is Shangguan Xiu.

Shangguan Xiu smiled, waved his hand and said, "Patriarch Suba, didn't we already discuss this issue just now, there is no need to discuss this matter again, I have made up my mind." ”

Suba sighed secretly, nodded, and said, "Come, Lord Shangguan, for the sake of the brotherhood between you and me, another drink!" "Dry!"

Shangguan Xiu and Suba pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and everyone ate and drank until nightfall.

Suba arranged for Shangguan Xiu and his party to stay in his palace, and then he borrowed 2,000 sets of military uniforms and armor from Shangguan Xiu, and asked people to transport all the 300,000 taels of silver sent by Ningnan to the military camp of the Feng Army.

Let's say that Shangguan Xiu and others stayed in Suba's palace that night, and Suba was also very enthusiastic, and specially arranged for Shangguan Xiu and the generals of the Feng Army to sleep with young and beautiful women.

Whether others accept it or not, Shangguan Xiu doesn't care, he doesn't bother to ask about such private matters, he himself shirks the two Ba women sent by Suba.

Living here in Suba, Shangguan Xiu was still very relieved, so Xiao Jue and Wu Yufei also went to rest early. As he was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the door outside. Shangguan Xiu raised his head and said, "Come in." ”

As the door opened, Zhao Chen walked in from outside, he came to Shangguan Xiu's approach, intervened to give a salute, and then handed a small bamboo tube in his hand forward, and said, "Brother Xiu, this is the information that just came from Huya Pass. ”

"Oh?" Shangguan Xiu took the small bamboo tube, pulled off the lid, poured it out, and a roll of paper slipped out of it, unfolded it, and looked down, it turned out to be the battle report sent back by the Dark Banner brothers who followed Tang Wanyun to Ningnan.

Just a few days ago, Tang Wanyun defeated the Ningnan army at Ashan, and now she has led the army to successfully break through Asan and advance to Zhongde County in Ningnan.

After reading this battle report, Shangguan Xiu took a breath, there were only 80,000 soldiers left under Tang Wanyun's command, and the defenders of Asan had 50,000 or 60,000 people.

Could it really be that the conspiracy that the Ningnan people were secretly brewing was to lure the enemy deeper, as Suba said? Shangguan Xiu pondered for a moment and asked, "Zhao Chen, is there only this one battle report sent back?"

"Yes, Brother Xiu, I have only received this battle report so far. "Now it is becoming more and more difficult for them to receive the battle report of Tang Wanyun, and the dark flag personnel who went out with Tang Wanyun must first pass the battle report to Huya Pass, and then send the information to them from Huya Pass.

"I know, you stand down!" Shangguan Xiu put the note of the battle report on the candlestick on the side, and with a snort, the note burned and turned into ashes. Zhao Chen bowed his hand and whispered, "Brother Xiu rests early, and his subordinates retire." ”

Waiting for Zhao Chen to leave, Shangguan Xiu paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. If the people of Ningnan really use the strategy of leading the enemy in-depth, then the current Tang Wanyun is very dangerous, Zhongde County belongs to the hinterland of Ningnan, Tang Wanyun fought there, and the people of Ningnan are afraid that there will be a showdown.

It seems that you will have to speed up your march as well. He had originally planned to let his brothers rest in Ba territory for two more days, but now it seemed that this was impossible. While he was pondering, there was another knock on the door outside.

Shangguan Xiu frowned, turned his head and said, "Come in." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened, and Qing'er walked in from outside. When eating, Qing'er was wearing the costume of the wind man, and at this time she changed into the traditional costume of the Ba people, with a corset of animal skin on her upper body, a short skirt of animal skin underneath, and no shoes on her feet.

Seeing that it was Qing'er, Shangguan Xiu was a little surprised and asked, "Qing'er, it's so late, are you in trouble?"

"I heard that you didn't ask for the woman my daddy sent. Qing'er blinked her big eyes and looked at Shangguan Xiu intently.

Shangguan Xiu nodded and responded, "Yes." "Chapter 299 Ambition

"Why? Don't you think they're not pretty enough?"

Shangguan Xiu smiled and casually made an excuse and said: "This time I am going out to fight, not to play in the mountains and rivers, tomorrow morning, I have to lead the army to set off." ”

"You're leaving so soon?!" Qing'er pouted, and then, she asked with a slight red face, "Tonight, will I stay with you?"

If this was said by another girl, Shangguan Xiu would definitely wonder if his ears had heard it wrong, but from Qing'er's point of view, he was not surprised at all, the women of the Fan clan were so direct.

He cleared his throat unnaturally and said, "Qing'er, if you stay overnight, I'm afraid that if you don't have to wait until tomorrow morning, Patriarch Suba will have to come to me Xingshi to ask for guilt." ”

"No, Daddy won't object to our business!" Qing'er said seriously, she leaned closer to Shangguan Xiu, and added in a low voice: "Daddy likes you too!"

Alas! Shangguan Xiu sighed secretly, and was thinking about how to refuse Qing'er, when Zhao Chen, who had left just now, came back, and when he saw Qing'er in the house, he looked surprised and said, "It turns out that Miss Qing'er is also there." ”

Qing'er glanced back at him, muttering in her heart, he really didn't come at the right time! Shangguan Xiu asked, "Zhao Chen, is there something wrong?"

"Brother Xiu, my subordinates just received a battle report. While speaking, Zhao Chen took out a small bamboo tube from his arms, poured out a roll of paper, and handed it to Shangguan Xiu.

Could it be that something happened to Tang Wanyun, right? Shangguan Xiu took the note with a solemn face, and when he unfolded it, there was not a word on the note, it was just a blank piece of paper.

He couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at Zhao Chen suspiciously, but Shangguan Xiu reacted very quickly, and after thinking about it, he immediately understood Zhao Chen's intentions, and secretly said smartly.

He pretended to look at the empty note in his palm, frowned, and asked, "When did you receive this?"

"Just now. ”

Shangguan Xiu didn't answer immediately, after a pause, he turned up the note in his hand and said to Qing'er: "Qing'er, I have urgent military affairs to discuss with General Zhao, you go back first!"

Qing'er's face couldn't hide the look of disappointment, and she asked unwillingly, "Can't I wait for you to finish the discussion?"

Shangguan Xiu shook his head and said in a deep voice: "When it comes to military affairs, it's not good for others to be present, Qing'er, you better go back!"

"That'...... All right. "Qing'er is deeply influenced by the culture of the Wind Country, and she is not a Fanbang woman who doesn't know anything. She looked helpless, looked at Zhao Chen, and then took a deep look at Shangguan Xiu, and finally reluctantly turned around and walked out.

Seeing Qing'er walk out of the room, Zhao Chen followed to the door of the room, looked outside again, and then he turned around, bowed to Shangguan Xiu, and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Xiu, I lied about having an emergency military situation......"

Before he finished speaking, Shangguan Xiu had already smiled on his back, looked at Zhao Chen appreciatively, and said, "I didn't see it, you are quite clever!"

Zhao Chen doesn't talk much on weekdays, and most of the contact with Shangguan Xiu is for official business, just to convey information, but this time it is for Shangguan Xiu to see his quick reaction and good at improvisation, if Zhao Chen doesn't come in time to solve the siege, he really doesn't know how to deal with Qing'er.

"Brother Xiu doesn't blame his subordinates for being troublesome. Zhao Chen bowed and said.

Shangguan Xiu stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, suddenly remembered something, and said: "I really have something that you need to deal with immediately, you immediately send the brother of the Dark Banner to Zhongde County in Ningnan, catch up with the county lord's army, inform the county lord of the movements of our army, and remind the county lord that he must not lead the army to continue to go deeper, and when he retreats to the area around Asan ......" Speaking of this, he waved his hand again, shook his head and said: "Forget it, it is better for me to write a letter directly to the county lord." ”
