Chapter 12 The mountain rain is coming
When it is divided into four points today, Liang deserves to be the first in national strength, Yan and Chu are relatively weak, followed by the remaining Xiping State is the weakest, if it were not for the steep terrain of Xiping State, and the barren land in the south, it would have been broken by Liang State long ago.
At this time, Hongjiang, the angry king of Xiping, was drunk and dreamed of death in the palace. Most of the women in Xiping Kingdom are vulgar and unbearable, and this angry king is lustful by nature, and almost all the concubines and female officials in the palace are taken from the Central Plains for their fun. Women in troubled times are not as good as dogs, women are weak, for them, no matter where they are, they will be bullied, it is better to enjoy this moment of glory and wealth.
Just as Hongjiang was immersed in the wine pond meat forest, the general of the Xiping State Expedition to the East, A Shan, wearing heavy armor, strode into the palace, seeing such a scene, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and he clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "King Qiyu, there are enemies from outside the Liang Kingdom. ”
Although Hongjiang is absurd, but it is a rare master of the art of war, the reason why Xiping Kingdom can survive in the troubled times, out of the geographical location, thanks to Hongjiang with soldiers like a god, according to legend, in the case of equal or slightly inferior to the other party, this person even against the Liang State Li Jian will not fall behind, and even raise him to the height of the sky, Baili Jin, always the disparity in strength, but also can take advantage of the time and place, the battle damage to the minimum.
When Hong Jiang heard this, he still hugged the smooth beauty next to him, and said with a smile: "It's Liang Guo's group of wine bags and rice bags again, after so many years, I am still alive and well." Now that Li Jian has been named the king with a different surname, it is equivalent to having no military power, rising and descending secretly, and there is almost no possibility of fighting, and the remaining three generals are not to be afraid. ”
Ah Shan's expression remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "Since the king is so confident, then the general will not worry." "It's not that there is no one in the eyes of Ashan's crossbow, just because the terrain of Xiping is steep, surrounded by the sea on three sides, and only the northwest border borders Jingzhou of Liang, which undoubtedly forms a natural barrier, Chu and Yan are absolutely impossible to cross the border of Liang to attack, if Liang sends troops to attack, Ashan crossbow is 100% sure that with the help of geographical advantages, only 30,000 soldiers and horses will swallow Liang 100,000 troops, and Liang must always be on guard against Chu and Yan joining forces. Therefore, Ah Shanxuan guessed that even if Emperor Wu of Liang jumped over the wall in a hurry, he would only send 200,000 troops to attack Xiping Kingdom at most. 200,000, in Ashan's view, is nothing more than to give military merit to the soldiers under his command for nothing.
The King of Anger slowly stood up and squinted at the crossbow at the bottom of the steps. He was nine feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a leopard's head and eyes, just standing like this, like the god of war in the heavenly court, which was intimidating. For the latter, how did the Nu King, who was careful and proficient in the art of war, not know, but Hong Jiang thought very highly of himself, and did not put the Ah Shan crossbow in his eyes, pulled the corners of his mouth, and asked: "What else does the general of Zhengdong do?" ”
Ah Shanxuan replied: "Back to the king, Shang Shuling left the mansion early this morning, according to the guards, Shang Shuling went to sea alone, as for where he went, no one knows. ”
Hong Jiang snorted coldly: "A scholar who has no power to restrain his hands, what is the use of showing off his tongue!" If it weren't for the fact that this person was out of Dongyue Academy, this king would have slaughtered him with a knife, and the general didn't have to worry about this time, when he came back, this king would personally ask. ”
Ah Shanxuan sighed quietly, he and Li Mixian have not had much contact, it stands to reason that the two of them are one writer and one martial arts, and they jointly assist King Nu, and there should be a lot of private encounters, but in fact, the two have never gotten along alone in private, and they have a sense of avoiding suspicion.
But he said that Li Mixian went to sea alone, not a temporary idea, but a game he laid out three years ago, and now that it is the appointed day, it should be over, but the world is impermanent, and Li Mixian is not fully sure that it can be done.
Landing on Yunxi Island, which even the King of Nu didn't know, Li Mixian took a deep breath, and the Li family, who had once shined in Dongyue Academy, had a smug look in his eyes. Three years ago, I went on a long trip to the sea, and accidentally discovered this Yunxi Island, which is isolated from the world by a sea in Xiping Country, the island is rich in products, and there are 3,000 islanders living there, all of whom are tall and strong, and the force is not bad, Li Mixian originally planned to take these 3,000 islanders under his command, but Yunxi in the island king district is unruly and unwilling to send people under the fence.
Li Mi Xiangui is the Xiping Guoshang Book Order, the tongue is bright lotus, and a few words can turn things around, but after all, he is just a weak scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken, as the so-called Xiucai meets the soldiers, it is reasonable to say, I don't know that the sentence offended Ou Yunxi, the latter gave an order, and ordered someone to tie up Li Mixian's five flowers, if it weren't for his identity as a student of Dongyue Academy, I am afraid that Li Mixian would have already become the soul of Ou Yunxi's knife.
The famous Dongyue Academy was founded in the Great Qin period and has a history of more than 600 years. In the past 600 years, ninety percent of the world's top strategists have come from this place, and the emperors and princes of all dynasties are proud to be assisted by a student of the academy. Three hundred years ago, the war of the Seven Kingdoms, the reason why the Liang State was able to stand out from the other countries was because the founding emperor of the Liang State, Liang Xuandi, enjoyed the help of five students, which can be said to occupy the right time and place.
Ou Yunxi has lived overseas for a long time, but he has heard a little about the famous Dongyue Academy, and heard that this person is actually from the academy, although he still does not believe it, he does not dare to take risks, and he loosens Li Mixian's restraints with his own hands, and asks: "How can Your Excellency prove that he is from Dongyue Academy?" ”
Li Mi first rubbed his slightly aching arm, and said proudly: "If the king of the island can't believe it, I will just die, if I can believe it, you and I might as well join forces and conspire to do great things!" ”
Ou Yunxi's face was cloudy, as if he was weighing, as the owner of Yunxi Island, he was free overseas, there was no quarrel with the world, and his life was nourishing, he really couldn't think of what attractive conditions Li Mixian could offer, it can be seen that this person is extraordinary, although he is in danger at the moment, he is still calm and calm, and he can't help but admire it in his heart, so he asked: "Your Excellency might as well talk about it, what a big deal, can you impress someone in Ou." ”
Li Mixian said unhurriedly: "The island king is unparalleled, I guess he will not be willing to settle on this island for the rest of his life, such as today's four points, it is the time for heroes to come out, and I sincerely invite the island king, you and I will join hands to compete in the Central Plains and become a hegemon!" ”
When Ou Yunxi heard this, his eyes, which were already slightly narrow, narrowed into a line, staring at Li Mixian, and after a while, he dispersed the henchmen around him, leaving Li Mixian alone, and no third party knew what the two were talking about.
As for what promises Li Mixian gave later, except for him and Ou Yunxi, no one is destined to know, but in the end, Li Mixian returned to Xiping Kingdom safely, and the matter was rotten in his heart, and no one confided, and then the two exchanged letters for a long time, Li Mixian secretly sent a lot of martial arts cheats to Ou Yunxi, the latter was already good at martial arts, and after getting the cheats, it was like a tiger with wings, originally only a fourth-class top martial artist, in just three years, with the help of the cheats given by Li Mixian, he broke through the obstacles of two or three in one fell swoop, and achieved the root realm, Leap to become a first-class master in the rivers and lakes.
Now that the three-year appointment has passed, Li Mixian visited as scheduled, Ou Yunxi sent someone to wait on the shore early, and brought Li Mixian to Xiaoyao Cave, Ou Yunxi was ready for a banquet, and when he saw Li Mixian, he smiled heartily: "Mr. Li is finally here, really let someone in the district wait." ”
Li Mixian's expression was as usual, and he said: "Fortunately, the island king did not order anyone to tie up Xia Wuhuanda this time." ”
When Ou Yunxi heard this, his smile was even stronger, he was a martial artist, he didn't read much, and he had always scoffed at pedantic scholars, but he had an inexplicable good impression of people who dared to make fun of his own readers.
Raising his hand to signal Li Mi to take a seat first, Ou Yunxi lifted the wine glass and said: "Mr. Li, someone in the district has been in accordance with the agreement, everything is ready, now there are 3,000 households on the island, a total of more than 8,000 people, can gather 4,000 soldiers who can fight, and with the help of Mr. Xia, he will achieve the realm of rooting. It's just that, I don't know how Mr. is preparing? ”
Li Mixian smiled and said: "Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, I got the news below, Emperor Wu of Liang has given a death order in the Jinluan Palace a few days ago, and ordered Cao Bo to exterminate the rebellion of Xiping Kingdom within half a year, but Xiping Kingdom occupies the natural danger, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Cao Bo's army is not good at water warfare, and there are only 100,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and the 40,000 army of Shang's Ashan crossbow is only afraid that there will be no return. If the guess is right, within ten days, the Liang State will definitely send troops, and then General Ashan Crossbow will definitely be sent to the front line by King Nu to face the battle, when the time comes, the King of the Island himself will lead his men to smash the Yellow Dragon, even if Ashan Crossbow has the heart to save the car, it is powerless to return to the sky! ”
Ou Yunxi touched his chin, and seemed to be a little unconvinced, after all, Xiping Kingdom is known as 150,000 soldiers, but there are only 40,000 horses and horses from the mountain, and there are 90,000 elite soldiers and strong generals left. Isn't it self-contained?
Xu saw Ou Yunxi's concerns, and Li Mixian continued: "The king of the island can rest assured, now in addition to General Ashan, the rest of the three generals of Zhenxi, Pingnan, and Xunbei have been rebelled, and the three of them have 90,000 troops, and they will also join it at that time, and the 20,000 personal soldiers of King Nu are not to be feared." ”
Ou Yunxi tapped his fingers on the wine glass and asked, "How can someone in Ou believe you?" ”
"If what I said below is false, after the king of the island released me that day, I could have left, why bother to bother with cheats? I want to be dignified Xiping Guoshang Shuling, even if I don't have the will, if I hide in the territory, the island king wants to go out of the island to kill me, but I'm afraid it's not easy, besides, there are more than 8,000 people on Yunxi Island, it's worth risking your life? What if you catch all of you, in the next Wenchen, what's the use of military merit? Li Mixian's expression was as usual, "But the island king has doubts, and it is also human nature, and there is nothing wrong with it." The king of the island is a smart person, when he knows the truth of what he said, and what concerns he has, he might as well say it today, and there will be a gap between you and me in the future. ”
Ou Yunxi smiled, his face softened slightly, and said: "Mr. Li is quick to talk, someone in Ou is really happy, but Mr. is not good at putting a good book order, why do you have to be that chaotic minister and thief, rebellion, a little mistake, it will be a catastrophe." ”
Li Mixian said indifferently: "Good birds choose trees to perch, in the next scribe, can not do the feat of opening up the territory, can only rely on others, if only on the ability to lead the troops, the King of Nu is indeed a genius, according to what he sees, only Sikong Li, Baili Jin two people in the world are slightly better, even if it is Li Jian of Liang State, it is not as good as King Nu, but the king of a country, just can lead the troops to fight is not good, the art of controlling the next can be described as a mess, a book order of the country of guarding, can not satisfy the appetite of the next. ”
"Xiping is located in the middle of nowhere, easy to defend and difficult to attack, he Hongjiang does not want to forge ahead, he just wants to be a person who keeps the success, does not want to take the initiative to attack, delusionally wants to let Liang and Yan, Chu both lose after the war, and reap the benefits of the fisherman, but at that time, no matter which country wins, it is with the general trend, the three countries only see that there is no mutual checks and balances, how should the small Xiping country respond? The king of the island didn't know, in the early years, he had a gambling game with a junior brother in the academy, and he lost four games in a row after winning three games first, and he didn't want to continue the last two games in a fit of anger, so he lost the opportunity, so that my junior brother chose to belong to a few people in the future, and had no choice but to go down, and he could only worship under the Nu Wangmen, although he had no innate advantage, he could look up to himself very high in the lower direction, thinking that even if he was in Xiping, where the national strength was the weakest, he could turn the clouds and rain, and achieve a hegemony, and trampled my junior brother under his feet, so, An angry king who will only enjoy his success on that one-third of an acre of land is far from satisfying his ambitions! ”
Ou Yunxi couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, and asked with a smile: "I don't know which junior brother Mr. Li is, and where he is now?" ”
Li Mi gritted his teeth first, and said word by word: "My junior brother is the chief strategist of Yan Kingdom, Guo Yuan. ”
