The Vietnamese army captured Hezhou, and also killed the five Cangxiong troops to the point of losing their troops, and retreated and fled.

Half a month later, this news spread quickly throughout Sichuan and Shu, which shocked and even panicked the barbarians of all ethnic groups.

Because this is completely beyond their established impression, in the Sichuan-Shu territory, in the past ten years, the Dayue official army has always been passively beaten, only to see that the city in their hands was taken away one by one, when did they take the city from the hands of all ethnic groups?

Therefore, when many barbarian leaders received this news, their first reaction was not to believe it, thinking that it was a rumor.

But as the matter was further proven, they felt a strong sense of unease, especially the barbarian forces in southern Sichuan, and a sense of crisis that they would become the next target of these soldiers and horses.

For this reason, the leaders of several tribes in southern Sichuan finally gathered together and began to discuss how to deal with the current crisis.

Before, because of the invitation of the Tang Sect, they were also connecting with each other, but everything was slow, how could they act as quickly as this time.

In mid-September, more than a dozen barbarian leaders gathered in Banshu to come up with a definite and unified response strategy.

This Banzhou is another important town in southern Sichuan, but unlike Hezhou and Yuzhou, the influence of the Han family here is very small, and the local barbarians have been the masters for thousands of years.

Although the Yang family has a Han surname, they are authentic southwestern barbarians, and they were only given such a surname because they were submitted to the Central Plains Dynasty in time, in fact, their original surname is Hu Yang.

But over the years, this clan has long been accustomed to this Han family surname, and even regarded themselves as Han nobles many times, and faintly became the leader of the barbarian tribes in southern Sichuan.

Today's Yang clan patriarch Yang Jianting, no matter how he dresses and behaves, is actually no different from the Han nobles, at this time the banquet of other tribe chiefs, on the Han popular wine and delicacies, in the middle of the hall there are beauties and dances, the end is extraordinary.

But these leaders who came out of the mountains were not so particular, and after waiting for a while and not seeing each other get into the right topic, a man sitting on the left hand side snapped his wine glass: "Patriarch Yang, don't you learn from the Han people anymore, let's quickly explain the matter, okay?" ”

These words immediately attracted the other patriarchs to echo one after another, and while looking at Yang Jianting, who was on the throne above, he shouted: "Yes, now that the soldiers and horses of the Han people are about to be killed in front of my family, how can we still have the heart to drink and watch dance." ”

"We also came to Banzhou for the safety of all ethnic groups, and we have a proper idea, so Patriarch Yang should stop hiding and not talking about it."

Seeing that everyone was dissatisfied, Yang Jianting finally waved his hand after laughing, letting the dancers retreat, and then the smile on his face also disappeared: "I can also understand the current situation that you are anxious about."

"Indeed, this incident in Hezhou surprised everyone, because it has been almost ten years, and the Vietnamese officials and troops have not taken the initiative to attack again. But in fact, when it comes to the truth, we should all be prepared.

"Don't forget, there were rumors before that the Yue Kingdom Dum Jun had arrived in my Sichuan and Shu, and he was going to take advantage of us."

Although there was a lot of resentment on everyone's faces, they still nodded in agreement: "Yes, I really didn't expect that the faint monarch still has such ability, it only took a few days to bring out such an elite army, and even the five cangxiong divisions are not their opponents." ”

"Well, it's reasonable for everyone to feel flustered because of this, after all, the strength of the five departments of the bear is not small, and the five departments are combined, and the available men and horses alone are about 50,000, that is, I Banzhou, and the number of soldiers and horses that can be used now is this number."

Yang Jianting said and swept over everyone, and when he saw that everyone's expressions were becoming more and more solemn, he smiled again: "But you don't have to really panic, the situation has not yet reached the point of being out of control."

"I really don't think that if they can take Hezhou, they will be much of a threat to us, I have asked people to carefully investigate, in fact, the Vietnamese army who took Hezhou is only a few thousand."

"Thousands?" The faces of the people were full of disbelief, "How is this possible?" How come Hezhou also has tens of thousands of men and horses from the five departments of the bears, and they can still defeat one enemy and ten people? ”

"The Vietnamese army naturally can't do it, but what if there is a traitor within the five departments of Cangxiong?"

In a word, everyone was a spirit again, and at the same time they looked at each other, as if they were worried that which patriarch around them would suddenly become the internal response of the Vietnamese army.

Yang Jianting's face was even more solemn at this time, and he said in a deep voice: "This is the purpose of inviting you to Banzhou today!"

"At present, our strength is far above that of the officers and the army, as long as we work together, we can use it up, and we can also consume the elite of the Vietnamese army that is less than 10,000 in front of us. But I'm afraid, I'm afraid, there will be traitors like the two gray bows of Cangshan Mountain!

"Therefore, I hope you can make an oath here, and the people of our ten divisions will unite as one from today onwards, advance and retreat together, so that they will not be afraid of the officers and soldiers of the Yue country. What do you think? ”

As he spoke, everyone's faces changed for a while, some people felt that this was indeed a good way, and some people wondered in their hearts whether this would be the strategy used by the Yang clan in Banzhou to annex their own tribe.

After all, the Yang clan is the most powerful barbarian in the entire southern Sichuan, and they have not had the idea of fighting their various departments in the past, but they have been resolved in various ways.

Yang Jianting saw the doubts of the outstanding leader, and smiled again: "Don't worry, this is an extraordinary time, no matter how greedy my Yang family is, I will not do anything that disturbs people's hearts, this time it is only for the common enemy, not for anything else." ”

"Okay, I believe Yang Tusi's words!" A leader took the lead in getting up and drained the wine in the cup in one gulp, "Our Wu Sibu will act on the orders of Banzhou from today onwards, and there is no other word!" ”

"I'm ...... too"

"And me!"

With the leader, many leaders got up one after another to express their attitude, and even those who had hesitated before could only keep up, otherwise they would be accused of having other plans and becoming everyone's enemy.

"Haha, everyone can trust my Yang family, I will tell you again, and there will be a large army in northern Sichuan in the near future, and we will send troops together. This time, we will not drag on as before, and we will be able to meet the Vietnamese army before they launch another attack on a certain city.

"Let that faint monarch and those Yue officials know who has the final say!"

After receiving such a promise, everyone's spirits were lifted, and the previous worries quickly dissipated.

If they are scattered and fighting separately, they will naturally be afraid that it will be their turn next time, but if they are together with the Yang family, they are only worried that the Vietnamese army will not attack.
