A huge uproar spread from the city to the city gate tower, and inside the city gate tower, Li Xuan drank tea calmly.

Qiu Zhenmu on the side couldn't help but step forward, and saw Muzhou City starting to boil a little bit from the back window, and there was still some amazement in his eyes.

The uproar began near the city gates, spreading rapidly farther away.

More and more people not only know what happened on the battlefield in Muzhou, but even many people have received the notice that the government is about to reorganize the household registration and land award, and they are full of excitement for a while.

"Brother Qiu." Li Xuan raised his head and called Qiu Zhenmu very casually.

Qiu Zhenmu hurriedly came back and respectfully bowed his hand to Li Xuan: "Your Majesty!"

"Here's a list, and tomorrow, you'll take people and arrest them." Li Xuan took out a list from his sleeve, put it on the table, and then pushed Qiu Zhenmu away.

Qiu Zhenmu, without the slightest hesitation, immediately took over the list.

Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction, then flicked his sleeves and said coldly: "These people have all oppressed the people and defrauded the land before and after the fall of Muzhou, and then they became cunning Tianyin Sectists, and now they are re-attached, but their hands and feet are not clean, they will be arrested tomorrow and beheaded the day after tomorrow."

"Whoa!" Qiu Zhenmu immediately took the list and stood on the other side.

Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at the noisy Muzhou City behind him, holding the list tightly in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "These poor guys are already dying, and they have been taken advantage of."

Recalling the various means of the king of Nanchang's line, dividing, co-opting, and killing, such as arming and fingering, resisting the enemy, and then sealing the merits.

Vaguely, Qiu Zhenmu already understood a lot.

As the sun set, suddenly, a fast horse came from the west and quickly rushed to the south gate.

Soon, a battle report was delivered to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan directly spread out the battle report in front of everyone: "Chen Shizheng, more than 1,000 soldiers of the Tianyin Sect, came out of the mountains with shields, and attacked the formation of our army.

At noon, in the land of five miles of the mountain road, he suddenly encountered an increase in the enemy's army, and retreated in defeat, losing more than 100 men."

Win first and then lose, defeat and win.

"Some people are stupid, some people are stupid!" Li Xuan sighed lightly, then stood up and looked to the west.

More than 1,000 people, on the frontal battlefield, more than 1,000 Tianyin Sect Guards were defeated, and even more than half of them were killed.

Li Xuan didn't know what to say for a while.

"Many of the soldiers of the Huijifu have been drawn to participate in the Battle of Silla, and the army is well-armed, and the generals are well prepared, so it is normal for them to be defeated and retreat under the sound of a fight." Yu Ze looked up at Li Xuan, frowned, and said, "But why do you have to fight five miles into the mountain road later, do you mean that they don't know that fighting in the mountains is a disadvantage for us?"

"Maybe it's a fluke." Li Xuan couldn't help but shake his head.

He was almost certain that Huai Jin would be the last to drive his soldiers into the mountain road.

It is even quite possible that he himself led the team.

This Huiji Mansion's murderous intent is very heavy, which gives the Tianyin Sect a chance to take advantage of it.

"Fold the second half of the official document and publish the first half of the official document to the whole city." Li Xuan slowly stood up, looked at Xu Jian, and said, "Prepare a batch of beef and mutton, send it to the military camp overnight, tomorrow, Xu joins the army and accompanies this king to the labor army, and the rest of you, guard the city and calm the hearts of the people."

"Obey!" All the people present immediately surrendered.

The sun and moon rotate, and the night goes to the morning solstice.

At the wharf in Nancheng, Muzhou, Li Xuan stood on the edge of the wharf, looked at Yu Ze who came to see him off, and said in a deep voice: "Today, the grain and grass sent from other states and the Dao Buddha masters will arrive, and everything will be bothered by Uncle Yu's hospitality."

"The subordinate officer takes the order." Yu Ze bowed slightly, and then looked at Li Xuan and said, "Lord Wang's trip, don't go into Tianmu Mountain with the army, it's best to let others explore the way for us first."

"The king knows."

Thirty miles of pool, on the side of the wharf, a group of soldiers looked to the east from afar

When the big ship arrived, his face immediately became solemn.

Li Xuan stood at the bow of the boat, and the vast Xin'an River arrived here and began to gradually narrow.

Further on, there are mountains and dense forests, narrow waterways, reefs, and several canyons and waterfalls, making it extremely difficult for large boats to walk.

In addition, it is autumn again, and the west wind is gradually rising, and it is extremely difficult to fight back along the waterway.

When the boat docked, the soldiers on the shore immediately retreated, and Sima Yaozhi, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately greeted him: "Your Majesty!"

"Sima!" Li Xuan arched his hand and looked sideways: "Xu joined the army and left, led people to unload the cattle, mutton, chicken and all kinds of vegetables on the ship, and then handed them over to Sima's men to send to the front line."

"The fish stall is five miles away." Yao Zhi stretched out his hand and said to Li Xuan, "Lord Wang, please stay in the Weiping Ancestral Hall temporarily."

"Sima, please!" The two rode their horses together and headed towards Weiping Town.

"How was the damage when I rushed into the mountains this time?" Li Xuan asked in a low voice.

"Fifty-seven wounded, sixty-eight dead." Yao Zhi's face showed a look of solemnity.

Li Xuan's face was also solemn: "The soldiers of the Huiji Mansion are not ordinary state and county soldiers, and their combat strength is outstanding, but they were damaged this time, but they were ambushed by the enemy?"

"Yes." Yao Zhi nodded and said, "Originally, according to the plan, I chased three miles into the mountain road and returned, but ......

"Is it Captain Huai's insistence?" Li Xuan immediately guessed the truth of the matter.

"Captain Huaidu, led by the thieves who were badly injured, led his troops to chase and kill, and was finally ambushed by them." Yao Zhi's face was very ugly.

It was originally a big victory, but it was made by Huaijin, and it immediately cast a shadow, and everyone's hearts couldn't help but be dissatisfied.

Li Xuan nodded, and said as if he had something else to say, "Captain Huaidu's meritorious service is earnest!"

"That's true." Yao Zhi's face softened, and he turned his head to look at Li Xuan, and the two of them laughed at the same time.

Weiping Town is built on the mountain, and the ancestral hall is located on the northwest highland of the town.

Duan Baoxuan's garrison is here, and it is strictly forbidden for his soldiers to enter the town to make trouble, but if they are found, they will be beheaded.

The tall stone archway is written with the four big characters of Fang's ancestral hall.

Before Li Xuan and Yao Zhi entered the door, they heard Huai Jin's iconic loud voice: "Governor, the soldiers of Huangshan Mansion have launched a surprise attack from behind, our army only needs to advance quickly to completely defeat it, and please send troops to the Governor."

As soon as Huai Jin's voice fell, Li Xuan just entered the door, his eyes fell on Duan Baoxuan behind the desk, and he arched his hand and said, "Governor, since Captain Huai has such ambitions, why can't Governor succeed."

As soon as Li Xuan said this, both Duan Baoxuan and Huai Jin looked at him in surprise.

Li Xuan lightly arched his hand and asked: "The art of war is cloudy, soldiers, you should know yourself and your enemy, I don't know how many remnants of the Yin Sect are today, and how many soldiers of the Huangshan Mansion will raid from behind, when will they raid, and where will they raid?"

Duan Baoxuan turned his head to look at Huai Jin, and Huai Jin immediately bowed his hand and said, "Qiu Changshi has a letter, the remnants of the Tianyin Sect are now less than 2,000 people, and now there are 800 soldiers from the Huangshan Mansion...... Just beware of the ambush and ask the governor to answer it."

"What does the King of Nanchang think?" Duan Baoxuan looked at Li Xuan very casually.

Li Xuan smiled and said, "The Commander is confident, and the Governor is self-assured, but please ask the Commander to immediately gather the men and horses of the headquarters, set off immediately, and the follow-up soldiers will rectify the materials, and then hurry up to catch up, Captain?"

Li Xuan turned to look at Huai Jin, and Duan Baoxuan also looked at Huai Jin at the same time.

One had a sinister smile on his face, and the other had an indifferent face, and Huai Jin immediately had a feeling of being calculated.

And it's a face-to-face calculation.

Huai Jin really wanted to agree in his heart, because Qiu Shenqi not only sent a message to him, but the messenger was now in his army, eagerly asking him to send troops, and now Duan Baoxuan finally let go, as long as Huai Jin promised to send troops immediately.

However, at this moment, Huai Jin felt an unusually inexplicable heartbeat.

Subconsciously, he took a step back slightly, arched his hand and said, "The last general will listen to Du Du'an

Platoon."

"It's rare, Huaidu Lieutenant, I also know that I have to listen to the arrangement of this governor, and this governor also thinks that His Majesty's holy decree to control the military of the six states was given to Huaidu Lieutenant." Duan Baoxuan stabbed Huai Jin twice, and Huai Jin immediately felt a burst of sweat on his scalp.

"It's rude to the last general, and I ask the governor to forgive me." Huai Jin immediately bowed his hand and bowed down to beg Duan Baoxuan for forgiveness.

Duan Baoxuan replied lightly, and turned to look at Li Xuan: "What does the King of Nanchang think?"

This time, Duan Baoxuan sat up straight and looked at Li Xuan with a solemn expression.

Li Xuan became solemn at the same time, and did not dare to advance, and directly arched his hand and said: "After yesterday's battle, the thieves will not dare to go out of the mountain road easily, or they may still be ambushed in the mountains, you can send a forward, two or three hundred people are enough, explore and advance, and the follow-up army will follow up slowly?"

"Hmm!" Duan Baoxuan nodded and asked directly, "Who led the troops and when did they leave?"

Huai Jin was still pondering the difference between the answer just now and the previous suggestion, and when he heard Duan Baoxuan ask who would lead the troops, he immediately became nervous.

Li Xuan took a step forward and said solemnly, "Still led by Captain Huaidu, how about a day of slowdown, and set off tomorrow afternoon?"

Shouldn't you set off right away?

Huai Jin's brows suddenly tightened, and he looked at Li Xuan, not understanding why Li Xuan had to wait for this day.

However, something even more surprising happened to Huaijin.

Duan Baoxuan showed a hint of hesitation on his face, shook his head, and said, "Let's slow down for two days, we will set off the day after tomorrow, and tomorrow afternoon will still be too fast."

"The Governor is very worried." Li Xuan nodded in agreement, and said with a cautious expression: "This trip, I'm afraid the road ahead is difficult, and you need to bring enough craftsmen and equipment, so as not to run into trouble, you can only fill it with the lives of soldiers."

"Hmm!" Duan Baoxuan turned his head to look at Huainan, and said with a cold expression: "The words of the king of Nanchang, the commander heard it clearly, since this is the case, the commander immediately went back to prepare, selected the soldiers who are accustomed to fighting in the mountains, and set off the day after tomorrow, after departure, do not rush forward, explore all the ambush traps along the way, until the street stops, do you understand?"

"The last general commands." Huai Jin's face showed a look of surprise.

What Li Xuan and Duan Baoxuan said before was a joke, but what they said now is what they really thought in their hearts.

Orders from the point of view of the commander-in-chief of the army, they considered the most prudent marching strategy.

In other words, the previous plan to set off immediately today is simply not feasible.

Not feasible in the eyes of either of them, at least.

The king of Nanchang is just a milky child, but Duan Baoxuan, the general of the Western Regions, also thinks so, so it means that it is extremely dangerous to set off now.

Why is it so dangerous?

What are you hiding?
