Chapter Twenty-Four: Zhang Xianba Goes to the North

After Zhang Xianba finished the court, he hurriedly went to the Mu family, one of the major families in Kyoto.

Soon Zhang Xianba arrived in front of the gate of the Mu Mansion, and after the little student who watched the door welcomed Zhang Xianba to the hospitality hall, he went to inform Mu Daogu, the current head of the Mu family.

Soon Mu Daogu came and laughed and said: "I heard that a noble guest is coming, I thought it was the immortal of the road, and it turned out to be the famous Zhang Xianba General Zhang!" What a cherishing guest! ”

"Quick, Brother Xianba, please"

Then Mu Daogu instructed the housekeeper to prepare good wine and food, and said that he wanted to have a good chat with Zhang Xianba.

After the two of them sat down and drank a few bowls of wine, Zhang Xian said domineeringly: "What about Mu Yunfei? Call that boy to me. ”

Mu Daogu winked at the butler, who retreated in seconds.

At this time, Mu Yunfei was playing chess with Mu Yitong in another Liangting in Mu Mansion, and Mu Yunfei dropped one and said: "Yitong, I will return to the border in two days." ”

Mu Yitong said happily after hearing this: "I'm going to leave so soon, can you take me to the border to play?"

Mu Yunfei was just about to reply to Mu Yitong's words, but at this time, the housekeeper came over and said, "Master Yunfei, General Zhang Xianba is here, and he wants to see you by name, and the head of the family will let you go." ”

Mu Yunfei was overjoyed when he heard this: "Where is General Zhang's army, I'll go over now, and I don't care about Mu Yitong and leave with the housekeeper." ”

Seeing that Mu Yunfei ignored himself and left, Mu Yitong snorted coldly and said, "If you don't let me go, I'll secretly dress up as your soldier and go with you, see what you can do with this girl then?" Joy! ”

After a while, the housekeeper took Mu Yun and flew to the door of Mu Daogu's room to greet Zhang Xianba.

After prying the door, he heard Mu Daogu shouting in, and as soon as Mu Yunfei entered the door, he saw Zhang Xianba at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said: "Boy Mu Yunfei, now a major general in the north, I have seen Zhang Xianba's general." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Xianba laughed and said: "What Mu Yunfei, what the king said is right, he is really a hero out of a young man." ”

Zhang Xianba then said in a serious manner: "Kouyu, the lord of the country, now that Da Zhou and Daqi are jointly attacking Yanmen Pass in the north of my Great Liang, Mu Yunfei is ready to go to the north with Zhang Xianba to meet the enemy, if anyone in Daliang can repel Gao Dashang and Ji Tian to solve the danger of Beipei, he will be named the king of the north." ”

Mu Yunfei was overjoyed when he heard this: "Mu Yunfei obeyed the order. ”

Next, Zhang Xianba asked Mu Yun to set off immediately.

Northern Realm Marshal's Mansion, after Ye Jiu stayed here, he had been cultivating for the past few days.

Ye Jiu's cultivation of the Starry Sky Refining Body Determination is different from that cultivated by other martial arts masters, others cultivated to the peak of the refining body and broke through to the refining qi, while the laws cultivated by Ye Jiu came from the Divine Realm, and after refining the body, it was bone refining, but it was basically the same.

Ye Jiu wanted to break through to the Bone Refining Realm earlier, so he got up every morning to exercise as usual, and at night he meditated on the ground and used the divine spring water to refine his body.

In the blink of an eye, a few days later, time passed slowly, although Ye Jiu tried his best to cultivate, but there was still no breakthrough, Ye Jiu couldn't figure out what the reason was, he didn't want to.

After leaving the cultivation room, Ye Jiu wanted to find something to eat, but not long after he went out, he heard someone in the mansion say that Zhang Xianba and Mu Yunfei had just arrived in the north with an army of 450,000, and Mr. Xiao Dongfang was currently greeting them.

After hearing this, Ye Jiu sighed with relief in his heart and said, "Kyoto has finally sent a large army, otherwise what would Gao Dashang and Ji Tian do if they attacked?" ”

Then after Ye Jiu went to find something to eat, he went back to practice, he had already told Xiao Dongfang, and when he started to beat the cane, let Xiao Dongfang tell him, so he was not interested in Zhang Xianba, and he did not go to receive and see Zhang Xianba.

Now Ye Jiu didn't want to do anything except go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions and cultivate, and he wasn't interested in anything else.

And at this time, in a big hall, Zhang Xianba and Mu Yunfei were here, and after a while, Xiao Dong walked in with some generals who defended the city and said: "Thank you very much for General Zhang's army coming to the north to support, this time it may really be hard for General Zhang." ”

Zhang Xianba said reluctantly: "Xiao Dongfang, you don't tell me some useless nonsense, I just arrived in the north, I need to know what the enemy is now, when will the enemy attack, how many troops the other side has, you come and tell me, I have to prepare for the big battle in advance." ”

After hearing this, Xiao Dongfang replied: "After the battle of General Zhang's army in Wanliping, the enemy will have less than 100,000 soldiers and horses left, and according to the report from Xizi, not long before General Zhang's army arrived, both Great Zhou and Great Qi each sent 250,000 troops to arrive, and now the enemy army has about 600,000 before and after. ”

Zhang Xianba's brows deepened after hearing this, and after a while, he said: "It seems that those old immortals in Kyoto have given me a big problem this time!" Then we had a hard time. ”

At this time, Mu Yunfei on the side said: "General Zhang, it's better for me to take two thousand troops to try the enemy's situation, see the depth of Gao Dashang and Ji Tian, and then make further plans." ”
