Let's say that in the Xuanmen Hall of the Wuyue King's Palace, King Lu summoned all the strategists he could muster, and he was discussing urgently. I saw Princess Lingyi and the veteran Yang Ye sitting at the head of King Lu, and Chen Tao, the commander of the forbidden army, Qi Zhi, Xiao Long, Qiu Sihai and Lei Baye and others were lined up on both sides. In addition, His Highness also stood a number of civil and military officials.

King Lu said: "Yesterday, a spy came to report that the Hachi Kingdom united the Yingque Kingdom and the Xianyu Kingdom with the intention of invading our country. The purpose of inviting you here today is to discuss a countermeasure. Yiwenchen asked: "The national war is big, I don't know if this news is accurate?" King Lu said: "The news of the troops of the Three Kingdoms has long been circulated in Beihai City, so this king sent people to the border. The spy who came to report yesterday was General Xiao's old department when he was in the Mobei Mercenary Regiment, so let him tell you about the current form. ”

Xiao Long got up and walked in the middle and said to everyone: "According to the investigation of the brothers of the mercenary group in the area outside the gate. Outside the Shuangyue Pass, the Naha Chi Kingdom has countless troops for five hundred miles west of Jiufeng Mountain. At a cursory glance, there are nine giant beacons under construction. Chen Tao, the commander of the forbidden army, was shocked when he heard this: "According to the ancient art of war, the beacon fire is the order and the drum is the trumpet. A beacon tower with millions of soldiers visible. If there are nine under construction, doesn't it mean that there are nine million troops stationed there?" Xiao Long said with a solemn expression: "Yes, under each beacon tower, there are no less than 100 mobile drum towers. In my estimation, nine million is only a little more. After a pause, he said: "In addition, three hundred miles outside the Humen Pass between Jiufeng Mountain and Mingyuan Mountain Range, an army is also stationed. Judging from the news sent back by Meng Shuai, I am afraid that there are no less than three million troops. Create a position there. ”

"Oh my God, where did so many people come from that Hachi country, and when did they come to our border!?" The civil officials were shocked one by one, and there was a noise in the hall. King Lu frowned slightly, and shouted, "Please be quiet, and listen to General Xiao!"

Xiao Long bowed to King Lu and continued: "In that military array, we saw the banners of Yingque Kingdom and Xianyu Kingdom. Therefore, this adds up to tens of millions of troops, which should be the result of the union of these three countries. Among the three kingdoms, Yingque is the strongest country, followed by Xianyu country. The country of Hachi is the weakest. their army. It should have taken advantage of the family rivalry Saihachi Kingdom to disturb the border, and quietly gathered together. Chen Tao said: "Since the Hachi Kingdom can unite the two countries to attack, we may be able to ask Beihai City and the Fucha Kingdom in the south for help." Next to him, Lei Baye said: "According to reliable information, the Fucha Kingdom has withdrawn the caravan from the Wuyue Country. and blocked the borders. It is just to prevent too many people from coming in. And Beihai City itself has no army. And they have always been neutral, and this time they did not close the door of that space, which is already the greatest support for us. ”

The civil servant of the hall asked, "Then how many soldiers and horses do we have to resist on the border?" Xiao Long said: "Except for the 100,000 soldiers guarding the border in the southern Lingshan and Luanfeng Mountains. There are 500,000 silver armored troops of Yang Shuai in Shuangyue Pass, 600,000 archers and cavalry in Humen Pass, and 100,000 forbidden troops in the national capital. That's the strength we can muster at the moment. The civil official shook his head and said, "How can we compete with an enemy army ten times our size?" and turned to King Lu and said, "Enlighten my king." As far as Weichen knows, Yingque and Xianyu have no hatred with our Wuyue country, and there are often caravans. This time, I don't know why I was attracted by the Nahachi country. Why don't we send envoys to the two countries, first, to ask for reasons, and second, to ask them to withdraw their troops. We give whatever they want. So that we can save our lives!"

Xiao Long snorted coldly and said, "Now outside the desert, the beacon fire is camping for hundreds of miles. The sand dunes and the Gobi are lined up with battle formations, the yellow sand is all over the sky, and the army is training like an ant colony. The momentum is already on the string, just waiting for the spring snow to melt, and it will attack. Do you think that with only a few small profits, you can make them withdraw from the army?" Qiu Sihai also said: "Yes! I see that they have been planning for a long time, and they have been spying on the land of Wuyue Country for a long time, and the heart of the jackal is clearly revealed. Sending messengers is just time to give them more preparations. King Lu said: "Then according to the meaning of the two Aiqing, what should we do?" Xiao Long said: "The soldiers are fast." In my opinion, we should take the initiative to attack when the enemy's foothold is not stable, the grain and grass have not arrived, and the beacon fire has not yet been established. Catch him off guard and capture his boss!"

The civil official said, "Reckless! You don't want to think about it, the tents of tens of millions of people stretch for hundreds of miles. Even if someone has a martial arts that is a one-stop ten thousand, how can he find the position of the commander among them? Moreover, we don't know anything about the leading figures of the Three Kingdoms, so we rush out like this, but we are afraid that we will not be able to defeat even a beacon tower!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Xuanmen Hall was talking about it, except for Qiu Sihai, Lei Baye and others who were the main ones in promoting a battle, and the voice of seeking peace was really louder. Seeing this, the civil official was quite proud, and bowed to King Lu again: "My king has always governed the country with benevolence, and he can endure everything if he can, and he must not start a war with other countries lightly!" King Lu thought about it, turned to Yang Ye on the side and said: "Although General Yang has already discharged his armor and returned to the field, but the political situation has changed, and this is the time for the country to employ people, so I have to invite you back again." I wonder what the old general thinks about this situation?"

You must know that the weight of Yang Ye, the head of the Yang family, in the court is not the same as Xiao Long and Qiu Sihai and others, who were newly promoted. Not to mention that he fought in all directions in his early years and was in a heavy position. In the family hegemony of this year's single road, Yang Rui won the championship in one fell swoop, which has made the Yang family ranked first among the four families. As soon as everyone heard that King Lu was asking his opinion, they immediately fell silent.

Yang Ye worshiped King Lu and said sternly to the civil and military ministers: "I only have one question. When this army is approaching the city, who is willing to go to the enemy position to lobby the enemy commander for a truce, so that we have enough time to send envoys to Yingque and Xianyu?" The highness was dumbfounded, and no one was willing to reply, and even the civil official who was eloquent shrank back. Although in ancient times there was a etiquette of "two armies fighting each other without cutting each other", anyone has heard of the treacherous behavior of the Naha Chi Kingdom. At this time, lobbying out of the customs is tantamount to sending oneself to death. Yang Ye looked at everyone's reaction and said, "It seems that everyone still understands people, so it's easy to explain." The man took out a large map and said: "Everyone, please look! The Three Kingdoms stationed 9 million troops at Shuangyue Pass and 3 million soldiers at Humen Pass, these two places can be said to be the lifeblood of the Wuyue Kingdom. If the Shuangyue Pass is broken, then there are plains in the area of Jiaocheng, Luancheng and Jilei Mountain. The enemy can easily seize a large part of our country. And Humen Pass is the closest to the national capital. If Humen misses, the enemy can drive straight into Beijing and capture the king. From this point of view, the Three Kingdoms Alliance does not want to give us any chance for peace talks, but wants to wipe the Wuyue Kingdom from this territory in one fell swoop!" King Lu said: "How should the old general deal with it?" Yang Ye said: "There are only two ways to go. The first is to switch and surrender and let the enemy carve up the Wuyue Kingdom. The second is to break the cauldron and fight to the death!"

After hearing this, King Lu got up and said, "The old general has a thorough analysis. I think that the rivers and mountains of my Wuyue Kingdom were brought back by Qin Muzong, the founding king, if others want to rob it, they have to fight!" suddenly pulled out his sword and waved, instantly cutting off the corner of the handrail on the throne. He said to His Highness's ministers: "Next, we will only talk about war! "The civil servant bowed down tremblingly, and promised along with the rest of the officials, big and small. King Lu bowed slightly, turned to Yang Ye and said, "This king is going to go to the battlefield in person this time." Is the old general willing to re-take command of the three armies?" Princess Lingyi next to her heard this and hurriedly said: "Father, this is too dangerous! Please think about it in the long run!" King Lu smiled: "So I plan to let you and Qizhu stay in the national capital." You've grown up. It should be able to control the government. "Princess Lingyi still wants to persuade. However, he was interrupted by King Lu waving his hand: "I have made up my mind! In the past, it was my Huairou rule that neglected the military, so that the Wuyue Kingdom was spied on by foreign powers. Now that the enemy is pressing the border, the country will not exist. How can I, the king, sit on the throne? Although this king is not strong, he can inspire the fighting spirit of the soldiers. Even if she dies in battle, she can still have the face to see her ancestors and ancestors!"

All the generals were moved by King Lu's spirit, and they all knelt down and bowed: "My king is righteous! We are willing to follow him to the death!" Yang Ye also got up and said: "Since King Lu is going to the battlefield, I will naturally follow the veteran left and right." It's just that the handsome seal of this war is not something I can take. King Lu asked everyone to get up, and said to Yang Ye: "Does the old general want to recommend Yang Rui as commander?"

Yang Rui had just won the championship in the Championship and the Fu Array Division, and he was about to be given the title of commander, but he refused at that time. Speaking of it now, everyone thinks that the young man should be in charge of the handsome seal, but Yang Ye shook his head and said: "Marching and fighting is not the same as fighting alone. Although my grandson won the championship of this competition, he has never experienced it on the battlefield, and he is not familiar with the application of the art of war. I can't afford such a heavy responsibility. Lu Wangqi said: "Then who else is more suitable for this position than the old general?"

Yang Ye stroked his beard and said with a smile: "In my Iron Fist mercenary group in Jiaocheng, their military advisors can take on this responsibility. It just so happens that he is still in the national capital. King Lu suddenly said: "Is it Mr. Qi, the military advisor of the Iron Fist Mercenary Regiment? I heard that he also went to participate in this year's Fu Array Master Selection Conference." Yang Ye said: "It's him! It seems that King Lu's news is really well-informed." King Lu said helplessly: "I also think this person is extraordinary." It's just that I sent someone to invite him, but he didn't come!" Yang Ye smiled: "This person has lived in seclusion in Jiaocheng for many years, and he doesn't know where he came from, and his temper is a little weird. Invite him unless it is my grandson. King Lu spread his hands and said: "How can Yang Rui's face be bigger than this king's?" Princess Lingyi smiled beside her: "Father, you don't know what Yang Rui did in the ancient desert city, but there were many people who owed him favors at that time!"

As he was talking, he heard a report from someone outside the hall, saying: "The champion of the battle for martial arts is asking to see him outside the palace!" When King Lu heard this, he said: "Spread it quickly!" When the time came, the young man came to the hall, and the audience told the situation again. Sure enough, he ran back to the Yang family's courtyard and quickly pulled Qi Lao over.

Qi Lao saw King Lu, was arranged to sit down next to Yang Ye, glanced at the map hanging on the hall and said: "The way to use soldiers, attack the heart first, and attack the city first." Psychological warfare is the top, and military warfare is the bottom. If you want to be weak and strong, you can only win by surprise. When King Lu heard this, he was greatly admired, got up and arched his hand, and said, "I would like to hear it in detail." Qi Lao said: "In the area of Humen Pass, there is Jiufeng Mountain on the left and Mingyuan Mountain on the right, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is a husband who is a pass, and ten thousand people are not open. Commander Chen led 100,000 forbidden troops to help, and together with Meng Shuai, a total of 700,000 soldiers and horses. If you only defend and don't attack, you should be able to deal with the three million army for a while. The key is how to deal with the nine million enemies outside the Double Moon Pass. King Lu said: "What is the best plan for this gentleman?" Qi Lao looked at the young man standing beside him and smiled: "The key to victory or defeat lies in two people. One is Chaheba, the national teacher of Nahachi, and the other is our young master of the Yang family, who is very popular. ”

Princess Lingyi couldn't help but ask: "Millions of troops are fighting, why are the two of them the key to victory or defeat?" The young man smiled: "That's Grandpa Qi who saw me force him here." Take my brush. Qi Lao said: "No." It's up to you. The young man said, "What's the matter?" Qi Lao said: "You have to activate your connections in Beihai City and prepare 500,000 tents in three days." The young man said, "Hey! That tent can accommodate more than a dozen people, to say the least." I just heard that there are only 500,000 people guarding the border. Are you telling them to live in a tent?" the rest of the crowd were just as confused as the boys. Qi Lao just continued, "Yes. As the saying goes, soldiers are not tired of cheating. I just want to let those 500,000 soldiers withdraw from the city and set up flags and camp in the area of Huangsha Town. Every day, horses pulled wooden sticks to stir up dust and sand, and every night a bonfire was lit in front of the tent. If I'm not mistaken, if the Hachi side goes to war, it must be led by their national teacher Chaheba. This person is not only self-interested in harming others, but also suspicious by nature. If he can believe it, we have more than five million sergeants stationed in the pass. Then he won't take the initiative. The other two countries saw that the country of Kazakhstan did not move. Surely, it just can't be defended. That's where we can move on to the next step. The boy said, "I see." That's a lot more, but I'll be back to Beihai City tonight. With the relationship between the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce and the Naval Battle Gang, it must be fully acquired within three days. ”

The crowd rejoiced. Cheering in unison, "Cai!" King Lu couldn't help but nod and said, "Wonderful! It seems that Old General Yang is really right to recommend Mr. to take charge of the Shuai Yin!" Old Qi waved his hand and said, "Don't be busy being happy yet." The odds are only half of the way. If they find out that it is false. It only takes half a day to be captured. Before they found out, they had to send men to destroy the nine towers at the same time. Thus the army of hundreds of miles was as if it had lost its eye. We only need to win in one corner of the battlefield to drive all the armies of the three countries out of the border. ”

When everyone heard this, there was silence again. Who doesn't know the importance of the beacon? But whenever a beacon tower is to be built, it is guarded by elite heavy soldiers. Moreover, it is very likely that the enemy's generals will hide in a tent near a beacon tower. It was so hard to infiltrate the camp of the million-strong army and destroy the nine beacons at the same time, and no one dared to think of it. Even if the plan succeeds after taking 10,000 steps back, it is estimated that those who carry out the plan will not be able to come out again.

"Sister Ren Xue and I can be in charge of the three beacon towers respectively!" All three of them appeared in the competition, especially that Ren Xue, who repelled Wu Feng who emitted the momentum of the Divine Gate Realm with just one palm. No one would doubt that they would be able to destroy the beacon. The boy took the lead, and someone immediately followed. Xiao Long next to him said: "That's good! So, Shanshan and I are in charge of one!" Qiu Sihai smiled: "Then Lei Baye and I will also go and bring him down!" Qi Lao said: "Our Iron Fist mercenary group will try to bring down one, but in this way, there are still three unclaimed." Princess Lingyi couldn't help but say, "I'll go too!" King Lu said when he heard this: "Don't talk nonsense! I just ordered you to sit in the national capital, how can you go to the battlefield?" Lingyi said: "Father, otherwise who else can go?"

"Let me go for the princess's share!" "And me!"

Suddenly, two familiar voices came from outside the hall, and everyone turned their heads to see that it was Jing Shao and Zhou Qiao who were sweeping from the air. The guards in front of the hall looked at it, and at the same time pulled out their long knives and surrounded them. Zhou Qiao still had a childish posture, raised his hands and shouted: "Slow! Slow! Although we are uninvited, we don't need this kind of welcome!" Seeing this, the princess stamped her feet and shouted, "Zhou Qiao, what are you doing here?"

King Lu said to Chen Tao: "What's going on? Shouldn't my nephew serve his sentence in prison?" Chen Tao bowed in fear: "It's a dereliction of duty on the part of his subordinates! We heard your words on the rooftops. I came down to repay my uncle for not killing. If I am lucky enough to survive the destruction of the beacon tower, I will definitely go back to the prison to serve my sentence. Zhou Qiao spread his hands and said, "So, this is how I was pulled down." ”

The princess pulled King Lu and whispered, "Father, don't be angry. I couldn't see my cousin suffering in prison, so I asked Zhou Qiao to release him. I didn't expect them to show up here. King Lu said: "You are trying to make me angry to death." The state has national laws, and the family has family rules. If you do something wrong, you will be punished. As the future queen, how can you know the law and break the law?" said the princess, "My daughter knows that she is wrong. But now is the time to employ people, so let my cousin make meritorious contributions. King Lu coughed dryly and said to the guards: "You all put down your swords!" Xiang Jing Shao said again: "Do you know the mistake of seeking power and usurping the throne?" Jing Shao said: "My nephew knows the mistake." It's also wrong for me to say that my uncle only wants comfort. I just want to be able to do something for the country. King Lu said: "Okay! I will allow you to be in charge of a beacon tower, and you can regain your freedom after the matter is completed." But you are not allowed to return to the royal family, are you willing?" Jing Shao knelt down with tears in his eyes and said, "Thank you King Lu! When Zhou Qiao heard this, he hurriedly pulled Jing Shao to the side. Qi Lao said: "Well, then there is only the last one left." "I want to know what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown. (To be continued......)
