Jianfeng Gang, Xiao Yunyan's camp.

Luo Hu came to report: "Your Highness, Helian Dingbang sent the most elite ironclad army, divided into two routes, all the way to the Evil Pavilion, all the way to Fengxiandu. ”

Luo Hong said: "This seems to be heading for the Pingning Army." Your Highness, we might as well watch them fight each other, and then I'll go and capture the little princess alive." ”

Xiao Yunyan glared at him, "Who wants you to capture someone?" ”

When Luo Hong heard this, he immediately slapped himself, but Xiao Yunyan ignored him and only asked, "How many people came?" ”

Luo Hu said: "Twenty thousand, all the ironclad troops in Daning have been dispatched, and if you want to come to Helian Dingbang, you are ready to make a desperate bet." ”

Mr. Leng said: "Perhaps, they plan to clean up after the new summer." ”

Xiao Yunyan stood in front of the sand table and thought for a long time, but snorted coldly: "Want to clean us up? Helian Dingbang is too self-conscious. ”

Mr. Leng said: "Your Highness, we now have two choices, either we will form an alliance with Xinxia first, wait until this group of ironclad troops is destroyed, and then fight with Xinxia in the future." Either sit back and watch them lose, and then we take the opportunity to attack the other side. ”

Luo Hong asked: "Then if you let Mr. Leng choose, how will you choose?" ”

Mr. Leng said: "Xinxia has been training soldiers and horses day and night, so why is the time rushed. They wanted to increase their troops, but the treasury was empty. In addition, now that Lord Gongsun has just passed away, the whole situation is sluggish, and the spirit has been greatly reduced, but if we give the new summer time, we will definitely be able to become a tiger and wolf army, so I think that Helian Dingbang's move is only beneficial to us. ”

Luo Hong clapped his hands suddenly, "Yes, that's it, that's it." Obviously, Mr. Leng's words are very compatible with Luo Hong's thoughts.

Xiao Yunyan said: "Luo Hong, Luo Hu, you go to Yuyang and Qingxian respectively to transfer 3,000 soldiers and horses back. ”

Luo Hong was puzzled and asked: "Your Highness, we now have 30,000 troops in Jianfeng Gang, what are we doing with the transfer of troops and horses?" ”

"Be prepared."

Mr. Leng saw that Xiao Yunyan seemed to be a little disagreeable, and said, "Your Highness, I guess that there may be guests coming in the next few days, so we might as well wait patiently." ”

Xiao Yunyan smiled: "Or guess who it will be?" ”

Mr. Leng said without thinking: "It must be Lu Zhongjian." ”

Before Mr. Leng's words fell, someone came to report: "Your Highness, Xinxia has sent an envoy to ask for a meeting." ”

Luo Hong couldn't wait to ask, "Who is coming?" ”

"He said his name was Lu Zhongjian."

This statement made Luo Hong choke enough: "God, I actually said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive." ”

Xiao Yunyan said: "The three of you will receive it, and just say that the king is not there." ”

"Yes."

After Lu Zhongjian arrived, Mr. Leng informed him: "It's really unfortunate that His Royal Highness King Ji went to Yuyang City to inspect today. Master Lu has something to say, just follow him, and when His Highness comes back, he will tell him. ”

Lu Zhongjian saw that Luo Hong and Luo Hu were all there, and knew that Xiao Yunyan was deliberately avoiding him. After a change of thought, he simply did not mention the matter of asking for help.

"Oh, it's nothing, just to remind Your Highness that Helian Dingbang has sent an ironclad army to come, and it seems that it is aimed at Daliang all the way and our Daxia all the way."

Mr. Leng pretended not to know and asked, "Oh, how many ironclad soldiers are coming?" ”

"Twenty thousand."

Luo Hong suddenly leaned back and laughed, and Luo Hu and Mr. Leng also showed contempt. Luo Hong laughed for a while and said: "Ahem, I thought how many came, Lord Lu, this mere 20,000 is really not enough for our beams, but I don't know if you can withstand it?" ”

Lu Zhongjian also smiled, not to be outdone: "General Da Luo doesn't have to worry, our old general Fu is good at strategy, good use of soldiers, and better at fighting formations, and these 20,000 ironclad troops will naturally not be in the eyes of his old man." It's just that I'm here today, and there was something that ......"

Lu Zhongjian deliberately betrayed Guanzi, causing the three of them to ask in unison: "What's the matter?" ”

Lu Zhongjian deliberately raised his voice: "Mr. Leng doesn't know much about this matter, but the two generals Luo are clear. Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to give your Royal Highness and our princess a chance to relax, if there is any misunderstanding in the past, make it clear, who knows that it is so unfortunate......" Lu Zhongjian said and sighed deliberately: "Well, this may also be the will of heaven, since their fate ends here, then I can't disobey the will of heaven." Everyone, excuse me, Lu said goodbye. Several people were dazed by Lu Zhongjian's words, and they were still hesitating about how to respond, but Lu Zhongjian suddenly stopped again, turned around and said, "By the way, he didn't mention what Lu had done in front of His Highness." When he turned his head, he muttered again: "Don't mention it." ”

Luo Hong and Luo Hu glanced at each other, and Mr. Leng was silent for a while. Suddenly, Lu Zhongjian said again: "Mr. Leng, I was an old friend of Lord Yang, and I entered the Liang capital in the early years, and I have always been taken care of by Lord Yang. Mr. Leng, you and I have experienced the ups and downs of this sea of eunuchs, the ebb and flow of the tide, I think we can all empathize, this person, everyone has their own last resort, and some trade-offs are also out of their own way, Lu also hopes that Lord Yang will clear the clouds and return to the imperial capital as soon as possible. If he is still lucky enough to meet Lord Yang in this life, I hope that he will be able to release his past suspicions with Lord Yang one day, and meet with a smile and hatred. ”

"Thank you, Lord Lu, Lord Lu's mind will be conveyed to Lord Yang on the next day. Lord Lu, please—" Mr. Leng said politely and sent Lu Zhongjian away.

Looking at Lu Zhongjian's back, Luo Hong scolded again: "He, what does he mean?" Do you want to tell His Highness that His Highness can have this military power, all of which he earned from it back then? Let His Highness remember his goodness? ”

Luo Hu, who has always been cautious and steady, suddenly took Luo Hong's words, "What he wants His Highness to remember is not his good, and this matter was not done by him alone." ”

Luo Hong looked him up and down in disbelief: "Hey, what do you mean by that?" ”

"It's not interesting."

When a few people returned to the camp tent, they saw that Xiao Yunyan had already come out from behind a curtain on the side of the camp tent, and was sitting in front of the bookcase at this time with a casual look reading the military reports from all over the place.

"Your Highness." Luo Hong was about to ask if he heard Lu Zhongjian's words, but was touched by Luo Hu and signaled him not to talk nonsense. Only then did Luo Hong realize that although Xiao Yunyan pretended to be indifferent, his face was not very good-looking, so he swallowed back the words that had not yet been spoken, and only said: "Your Highness, then I will go to Yuyang." ”

"After being transferred, the soldiers and horses will be placed around the Upper Evil Pavilion first, and we will wait." Xiao Yunyan spoke calmly.

Luo Hu said: "Your Highness, in fact, what Lord Lu said is reasonable. ”

Luo Hong's words Luo Hong was not happy to listen, and immediately retorted: "What kind of that sour Confucianism said, it's just a woman, how can you use it to be so verbose." According to me, when they are both defeated, His Royal Highness will take advantage of the situation to attack Xunjin City, and at that time, even the people and the city will be His Highness. ”

Xiao Yunyan let Luo Hong say this time, not only that, but also nodded, "It's good that you understand, remember, no matter what, this Xunjin City must be the king's." Alright, you guys hurry up. ”

"Yes."

Out of the camp, Luo Hong asked Luo Hu: "What does Your Highness mean?" ”

Luo Hu said: "That's what you mean, even people and cities are His Highness." ”
