Chapter 109: Ten Years of Harmony (Part II)
"Eldest Sun Miao, are you going to fight with our warriors of the Southern Barbarians?" Meng Xun had a black vine armor behind him.
"Could this be a vine armor soldier who specializes in restraining swords?" said the eldest grandson with a smile.
"In a word, fight or not. The rattan armor soldiers behind him rubbed their hands.
"Don't fight. "The eldest grandson is an old fox, how can he not see that the barbarians are now hoping to use this reason to sweep away the ** forces with the advantage of troops?
"Then what do you mean? "The barbarian king was followed by seven or eight cave masters.
"Nothing, just wanted to see what you're doing. Ximen Tian walked over slowly.
"Ximentian, don't go over. The eldest grandson pressed Ximentian's shoulder.
"Barbarian King, let me ask you, why are you violating our Tang Dynasty?" Ximen Tian was wearing fiery red battle armor at this time, and after three years of tempering, he was already quite proficient in the art of war.
"Because I'm happy, I don't submit to the rule of your Tang Dynasty sissy, the great mountains and rivers should belong to us bold and brave warriors. The barbarian king Meng Xun said disdainfully.
"You don't know us. Ximen Tian stood on the high ground and looked at the barbarian king from afar.
"You kid, you haven't reached the age of a weak crown, and the smell of milk hasn't dried up, what do you know. Meng Xun held the weapon fork with a fierce expression.
"The heavy pupil is for the saint Mingjun, I can't understand you or you. The eldest grandson said something about Meng Xun's eyes again.
"Do you dare to fight me alone? Let you taste my Barbarian King punch. The barbarian king Meng Xun continued to provoke.
"There's no point in going head-to-head with you, I admit, I'm old, I'm no match for you anymore. The eldest grandson looked down at Meng Xun and sighed.
"Then get out of the way that stands in my way, let me go straight to the capital, and let me be the prosperous Mingjun!" The barbarian king stepped on his weapon and flew in the air.
"Formation!" The five generals, including Ximen Tian, quickly drove down the high ground and quickly formed a five-way five-element formation.
"Bell, bell!" The barbarian king was instantly encircled by the five generals.
"Quick, go to support!" The Nanban cave masters also took action.
"Break!" Meng Xun was kicked out by the eldest grandson in an instant.
"Ahhh
"Retreat. The eldest grandson retreated quickly, including the five generals of Ximentian.
**'s archers hid behind the shield soldiers, holding the weapons of the Southern Barbarians, and methodically retracted their battle lines until they retreated to the high ground.
Only two quarters of an hour later, there was a small exchange between the two sides.
"You've gotten stronger, but you still can't break through our ** defense. The eldest grandson smiled, and his somewhat rickety body trembled slightly.
"**'s military formation, it's really still so powerful. Meng Xun was jealous.
"You brutes are not weak with each other. ”
"Hmph. Looking at the impermeable ** defense line like a turtle shell, Meng Xun wiped the blood on his face.
"Withdraw!"
"Barbarian king, you don't grow much grain, and you can't harvest much. Do you want me to teach you?" Ji Qiao'er hid in the defense line and smiled slightly, looking extremely cute.
"No, let's withdraw. The barbarian king Meng Xun was stunned and retreated.
"Nanban still refuses to accept the king, it seems that he can only slowly educate them, otherwise he will not be able to explain to the saint for three years. Ma Shuo sighed.
The next day.
"Who are you?" the brute saw a group of men approaching in the distance.
"You who teach you to grow rice. Ximen Tian shouted, and his voice was very loud.
Last night, Ximen Tian and Changsun Miao argued for a long time, and both soft and hard Shi used his own head to issue a military order, and Changsun Miao reluctantly agreed.
"You boy, come uninvited!" the barbarian king heard the commotion outside in the camp, and hurried out.
"Barbarian King, you beat me so badly in the battle of Yutunxia, I helped you so many times, don't you want to thank me well?" Ximen Tian stared at Meng Xun's heavy pupils, and three years of studying the art of war made his eyes have a little more depth.
"I can't see through you anymore. Meng Xun touched the hairs on his face, not knowing how to answer.
"Quick, take me around. Ximen Tian urged.
"Oh, this field has been ruined for you. Ximen Tian looked at the messy seedling field and covered his forehead with one hand.
"It's ugly. Although Ji Qiaoer's voice is good, her words are still unforgiving.
......
The barbarians who planted rice all raised their heads, not knowing what the weak Tang people were saying.
"I, I just like it, whatever. Meng Xun looked at his people and felt that they were planted quite neatly.
"Let him tell you, I don't quite understand. Ximen Tian coughed dryly.
"You've planted too deep, two inches deep, how can you do it? ”
"Also, what if you fill so much water and drown the seedlings. ”
"You, you, get up, and see how I plant!" Ji Qiao'er watched these barbarians messing around, eager to kick them away.
"Fourth uncle, you will too. Ximen Tian glanced at the fourth uncle.
"I am the Tian family. "The fourth uncle has followed Ximen Tian in the past few years, and he has also practiced many military styles.
In that year, the Nanban had a bumper harvest, obtaining 3 million quintals of grain, and the overall efficiency had tripled, and the Nanban people were full.
In the next seven years, the people of the Southern Barbarians cultivated grain on the battlefield of the Tang Barbarians, and they did not drive them away.
In the fifth year, floods occurred in the two gorges of the Tianjiang River, and countless displaced people migrated to the north and south.
Zhengnan ** received hundreds of thousands of people, allocated grain relief, and opened up paddy fields, and since then the Tang barbarian people have no boundaries and have cultivated each other.
**'s defense line gradually opened, and the Southern Barbarian Army and ** also slowly came together, they drank and ate meat together, although the language barrier, but this mutual frankness, so that this group of soldiers of the two armies who were originally fighting each other blended together.
"You old fox, you must be cheating!" Meng Xun was naked, and his hair was exposed.
"Why am I cheating? You are going to shake the dice, have you seen me use spiritual power?" When the eldest grandson heard the trick, his whole face turned green, and his wrinkled hands slapped the table.
"I don't care, return my spirit stone to me. "The dignified barbarian king is like a child at the moment.
"You win it back, what's the matter. ”
The five generals, including the hussar general Ximen Tian and the generals on the left and right, were all dumbfounded, they couldn't believe that the dignified ** Southern Expedition Commander, the temporary first-grade official given by the Emperor, actually fought for ten lower-grade spirit stones.
"What are you looking at, are you afraid of losing?" The cave masters on the opposite side seemed to have figured something out.
"No way. Ximen Tian picked up the pai gow in his hand.
Damn!
"Quick, flop!"
After all, the happy days will not last long, and the sudden change in the situation of the Tang Dynasty caught Ximen Tian off guard.
