The tiger baby must have used a secret treasure, and he himself should not have such great magical powers, but when did he have such a secret treasure, Shao Wu was also secretly frightened. Finally, Shao Wu was able to calm down, did not ask questions in front of people, and did not speak until this moment.

Huwa replied: "Senior brother, do you remember that I stayed in the Western Wilderness for a few months last year, and I sent the Nine Spirits to report the news, and Mr. Qing Shiqing of the Nine Spirits is a master in the world, and his cultivation is superb and his mana is profound. He gave me three rune leaves, I have used one of them, and today I have used the remaining two, which can be regarded as a complete achievement. ”

......

Shaowu captured the capital city, ordered people to pacify the people, comfort the dead, and collect and reorganize prisoners of war, and those people from the nearby villages who fled into the capital, seeing that there was no military disaster and could be exempted from a year's service, have gone home one after another, and the food and goods they originally carried were also carried home on their shoulders. The bazaar in the capital reopened soon after.

The young minister appointed a chief Fumin lord to be in charge of these affairs, and that was the master of the original phase of the country, Xiling. Shaowu has set up new positions in each city to care for the people, for example, Hongyuan served as the master of Feihong City, and Xiling was the general person in charge of each city. Regarding this appointment, the young secretary also gave an explanation.

Xiling is also one of the main generals of Xiangdu City, and was about to die when the city was broken, but was rushed by the Shaowu army in time to seize the weapon. Later, Shao Wu persuaded him to stay useful and appease the people of the country with his talents, and Lord Peng Keng also spoke on the side, persuading Ba Jun Shao to practice benevolence and morality, and not to involve the people in the clan war. Xiling accepted the appointment.

In fact, in Shaowu's mind, Xiling is not only the chief Fumin lord after occupying the Xiangmuro country, but also the chief Fumin lord of the newly occupied area if he continues to attack the Zheng Muro country and occupy its city outline in the future. But he hasn't said anything about this plan yet, no matter whether he fully trusts Xiling or not, such an important strategic plan can't be leaked in advance.

For Xiling's talent, of course, Shaowu attaches great importance to this kind of person's mentality at the moment. The young man is also very accurate. Xiling is different from Ziqianshang, since he wants to use this person, he must first break his heart.

In addition to his outstanding talents, his diligence is beyond imagination, he is not from a noble family, but he does not miss the opportunity to learn, and everywhere he goes, he memorizes almost all the valuable information in his heart, and asks the elders from all over the world for the knowledge he has inherited.

Even if ordinary people are studious, they will not be as attentive as Xiling. They must have great ambitions. I hope to have the opportunity to show my talent and ambition. He was indeed employed, but he was not valued and respected enough. Now that Liang Yichen, the heir of Chiwangqiu, wants to vent his personal anger and let Yuxuan set up a bureau to harm him, no matter whether the Xiangmuro State can be kept in the future, Xiling may not be appointed by the Xiangmuro State again.

So who will use him again in Ba Yuan, and where will he have the opportunity to display his talent and ambition? For Xiling, this is the biggest blow to his life. Now that Shaowu has given Xiling enough face and entrusted with important tasks, he also knows what this kind of person will do. I'm not worried at all that Xiling doesn't do his best.

Xiling asked Shao Wu in private: "Now that I have offended Liang Yichen, the person in charge of Chiwangqiu in the Xiangmu Kingdom, if the lord uses me, will Chiwangqiu be dissatisfied?"

Shaowu shook his head and said, "I will use you to soothe the people, if you do well." If you do not do a good job, the rumors of the cities will be able to turn you down, and there is no need for Chiwangqiu to deal with you. If Chiwangqiu even cares about this kind of thing. Talking about the magnanimity of the big sects, then I don't have to worry about what state affairs they will interfere in. ”

After Shaowu captured Xiangdu City, the next step was of course to capture Ryoma City and completely cut off the return route of the Xiangqi army. Xiling once offered a plan to Shaowu. Asked Huwa to take out a token and send it to the guard of Longma City, Gongshan Xu, and Shaowu listened to his construction.

This time, Shaowu and Huwa did not follow the prince of the army, but only sent Pangwu to lead the army to attack Longma City. When the soldiers came to the city, Pan Gu sent a messenger to call the door under the city, saying that it was sent by Mr. Xiao, and there was something he wanted to ask General Gongshan to take a look.

Seeing that the military formation of the Bamuro Kingdom had no intention of attacking the city for the time being, Gongshan ordered the door to be opened and the envoys entered the city. The messenger sent a wooden box, which opened to reveal a horn of a foot long and shining silver.

Gongshan Xuan recognized the origin of this thing at a glance. He was born in Gongshan Village in Longma City, and he thought that Mr. Xiao passed by Gongshan Village and saved a villager who was frightened by a horse in the mountains and was injured by a fall. Later, the little gentleman saw the horse chasing the villagers outside the village, so he broke its silver horn and killed the strange beast on the spot, and led the princess to the palace.

The tiger baby taught the palace concubine and her guards a lesson, and Mr. Cangsha immediately appeared, drank and talked with Mr. Xiao, and traveled with him for several months. Xiang Poor punished Gong Yan afterwards, no matter what you say, it was Gong Yan who connived at foreign beasts to hurt people, led the car and driving guards to trample on the green seedlings, which has blatantly violated the etiquette law of the country, and made things bigger.

Gongshan Xu was present at the time, and deep down, he was very grateful to Mr. Xiao, because Mr. Xiao came to the rescue of his people.

Gongshan Xuben is a border general stationed in Longma City, and is responsible for training the elite military formation at the border pass on weekdays. Xiang Poor went out this time and transferred away the field army formation under the command of Gongshan Xu, but he did not take Gongshan Xu himself with him, obviously he no longer reused and no longer trusted him. Although Ryoma City is very important, it is located in the rear of the Xiangmuro Kingdom, and it is only a place for the hoarding and transit of various military supplies, and the credit for logistics belongs to the city lord.

However, the development of the war situation was unexpected, and Shaowu did not directly block the entry of the poor army at the border pass, but went around in a big circle in the hinterland of the Xiangmuro country, and actually killed from the direction of the national capital to Ryoma City. There is no shortage of ordnance in Ryoma City, but there are no soldiers to defend the city at the moment, and most of the garrison formations left by Xiang Poor were also transferred to the outside of the national capital by Yuxuan not long ago to participate in the decisive battle.

Gongshan Xuan did not know the importance of Ryoma City, once Shaowu captured this place, not only could he get a large amount of ordnance in the arsenal, but also completely cut off the hope of the poor army returning to the country. However, Gongshanxu led several armies to defend the city, and the poor army could not return to the division in the short term, which was a certain death.

Gongshan Xuan took this silver horn to recall the past, and couldn't help but sigh. And the lord of Ryoma City, the lords of the city, and the captains of the various army formations, seeing that the Shaowu army had not yet attacked the city, someone first sent a thing to General Gongshan, and they came to inquire what was going on? General Gongshan did not hide it, and took out this silver horn to tell the story of the past.

The name of Mr. Xiao is known to almost everyone in the area of Longma City, and seeing this silver horn is the physical evidence of the deeds of the year. Listening to Gongshanxu, an eyewitness, tell what he saw with his own eyes, thinking of the situation of Longma City today, the hall suddenly sighed. The city lord stood up and said, "General Gongshan, otherwise, you will tie me up and sacrifice the city." ”

Gongshan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Why bother? I boasted this silver horn and surrendered out of the city, and the defenders in the city wanted to fight, but they shot me in the city, and if they didn't want to fight, they disarmed their armor and left." I have heard the decree issued by the Junior Affairs Bureau, that if the garrison does not fight, it may be dismissed and return to its homeland, that those who die in battle may receive a pension, and that those who are captured before the battle shall serve another three years. ”

After saying this, Gongshan Xu went out of the city alone with the silver horn. The garrison stood on the wall and watched him, but not one of them shot him with arrows.

Before Gongshan Xu came to the army, he declared his identity and explained his intention. Pan Gu stepped forward to ask about the situation, and Gong Shanxu returned the silver horn to Pan Gu and asked him to send someone back to Mr. Xiao. Then Pan Gu gave the order to attack the city, and the army did not rush in, but walked in, and the gate in front of it was not closed. The defenders of the city laid down their weapons and armor, and did not fight at all.

There were no casualties in the capture of Ryoma City, and no prisoners of war were captured, and only Gongshan Xuan took the initiative to surrender out of the city, but the rest of the city did not resist. Gongshan Xuhe and the generals in the city made such a choice, of course, it was forced by the form, but when the news spread, it inevitably became another way of saying - Lord Peng Keng's family sent the silver horn of the horse that was broken by his own hands here into the city, and Longma City surrendered without a fight.

After the Shaowu army occupied Longma City, they obtained a large number of ordnance materials, the granary of Taihe City, the arsenal of Longma City, and a large number of other goods in Xiangdu City that were too late to be transported, and the logistics supply of the army did not need to be transferred from Ba Mur country.

The army has advanced to the border between the original Bamuro country and the Xiangmuro country, and further on is Wangqiu Castle, which has been captured by the prime minister, and the Shaowu army has circled and fought back to the Bamuro country.

Ryoma City fell into the hands of Shaowu, and the two cities of Crane and Shanyang surrendered without a fight. These two cities could not be surrendered without surrendering, because their location was west of Luoshui, south of Jiuzhang City, east of Longma City, and bordered the country of Bamuro to the north, and they had become two isolated cities.

After seeing that Hecheng and Sanyo Castle also surrendered, the eastern border of the Xiangmuro Province captured by the Shaowu army was completely connected with the Bamuro Kingdom and became a stable rear.

In addition to the national capital, not counting the places such as Shanshui City, which has not yet achieved real rule, there are eighteen castle outlines in Xiangmuro Country. Nowadays, there are nine castles of Baiju City, Guxiong City, Feihong City, Gaocheng, Jiuzhang City, Jianhe City, Shanyang City, Taihe City, and Longma City, which are occupied by Shaowu.

At this time, Meng Yingqiu sent the news that Xiang was poor and dead, and the army of Xiangmuro had withdrawn from the pass between Pengshan and Zhangren Mountain. The next day, news of Batu City also arrived. Shrike told Shaowu that the general of the Northern Dao clan succeeded in a surprise attack and burned a large number of military rations of the poor, and the poor army was frustrated in attacking the city of Badu, and now it has retreated from under the city of Badu.

After Shaowu captured Longma City, he had already reached the eastern foot of Meng Yingqiu's mountains, so Meng Yingqiu's news came faster than that of Badu City. Berao still didn't know that Xiang was poor and dead, but the Sect Master already knew about it, and it seemed that Meng Yingqiu had another way to find out the news. The young man laughed heartily, set up a banquet in the palace to reward the generals, and announced the "good news" in public. (To be continued......)
