And this sentence was enough for Qin Yue to be vigilant, if this old guy led his troops directly to his business path, it would be completely troublesome.

Don't look at the fact that the king of Hejian County is sitting on hundreds of thousands of troops now, and he looks very cool.

Qin Yue had already seen from the information reported by the Shadow Chamber of Commerce below, and now the conditions of this person can be said to be very bad, saying that he has eaten the last meal but has not eaten the next meal.

Now it is estimated that it is a desperate fight, and if you win, you will naturally be happy. At that time, the king of Hejian County can take out part of the money he has in his hand to pay off the debts and hand it over to the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Western Song Dynasty. If you lose, then you will naturally have nothing, and there will be no debt.

If this guy intercepts the trade in the middle, then the Shadow Chamber of Commerce will lose a lot of money, and it can be regarded as an enemy.

So now on the route, you have to avoid the place that comes out of the king of the river. Guye City is naturally to be avoided, everyone knows that now Guye City can be said to be the focus of the attack of the Hejian County King, although it is said that it is controlled by the forbidden army, but who knows if the team of the Hejian County King who came out of Guye City will break through at once.

After taking a closer look at the locations of his various businesses on the map, Qin Yue couldn't help but have a headache.

The stall spread out by his subordinate is too big. It is not difficult to find a few trade routes from it to circumvent the attack route of the Hejian County King, but then, most of the trade routes are within the attack range of the River County King.

That alone is enough of a headache. It's naturally okay to lose some of your money, but if you lose some of your money to fund that bastard, it is estimated that Xue Tianhan will come to find him desperately.

And at this time, outside Guye City, the city wall was already being renovated.

Not only the forbidden army, but even some of the people have been mobilized. Of course, for the work of renovating the city wall, it will not let the people go up, after all, Guye City has been infiltrated by the king of Hejian for a long time, if there are one or two fine works in it, what do you do on the city wall, and then tell the king of Hejian that I am afraid that at the first moment of the battle, these three thousand forbidden troops will become the rations of the other party.

"General, now that most of the city walls have been renovated, can we breathe a sigh of relief? ”

A sweaty lieutenant asked Meng Ke, and the forbidden troops under him also showed a relaxed look on their faces at this time.

These days are nothing short of a disaster for them. Originally, the work of building the city wall was not the turn of their elites, and most of the time it was done by the defenders and baggage soldiers, but who knew that the infiltration of this place by the king of Hejian was not a day or two.

It can be said that in the entire Guye City, there are not a few people who are not meticulous, and they naturally don't worry about letting the people here build the city wall.

The only way to do this is to build a city wall. The consequences of doing it yourself are obvious, that is, tired and dead dogs. That's why they're desperate for rest now, even if it's just for a day.

"With the way you are now, you are worthy of saying that you are an elite?" Meng Ke snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid that things are not so simple, haven't you noticed that the old man of Hejian County King has not moved until now?"

This is very abnormal in Meng Ke's opinion, you must know that the Hejian Plain under the hands of the King of Hejian County, there are only three places that can come out. Now that the last gap in Lone Ye City has to be filled, then the king of Hejian County will completely become a caged bird.

In this case, what would you do if it were you?

Monco's first reaction was to break through, definitely a breakthrough. If you don't break through, the end result is a dead end. He didn't want to be completely trapped in the plain by Western Qin's team, and then wait for the two armies of Western Qin to solve the threat outside, and then run over to deal with him.

This is definitely not in line with the character of the king of Hejian, and this guy is definitely not the kind of person who will wait for death. Before he died, he must have done everything he could to preserve his position!

So there are only two possibilities for the final result, one possibility is that the king of Hejian wants to reap the benefits in the end.

But as long as this guy has a little common sense, he knows how stupid his ideas are. After all, the premise of reaping the benefits is to have a good fight on both sides.

There is still a little possibility on the Western Song side, but there is no possibility on the side of the Middle Zhou Dynasty.

The King of Hejian County, a hero-like figure, is absolutely impossible to gamble on this matter. Unless he has a broken brain, he wants to die now, but it is absolutely impossible for someone with a broken brain......

"Newspaper, there is a rebel army behind us. Just then, a herald came running on a fast horse.

"Bastard, do you know what you're talking about right now?" the lieutenant lost his temper in an instant. After all, the current situation is that the three gates of the Hejian County King are in his own hands, and the team in the hands of the Hejian County King is impossible to appear behind them.

"It seems that we have underestimated the King of Hejian after all. In other words, we are underestimating the ambitions of some people. ”

Monco said helplessly, he had roughly guessed what was going on.

After all, when Ying Xiaoyue came to power, it was just the result of the princes seeing that the king of Hejian County had become a big trend, and they were unwilling to let the king of Hejian benefit alone. But now the position under Ying Xiaoyue's ass can be said to be increasingly stable.

In this case, it is a question of who will win the throne in the end.

Besides, it doesn't seem to be a problem for the queen to recruit a son-in-law, and when the time comes, it will not be a problem to inherit the royal bloodline and ensure the legitimacy of the royal bloodline. So at this time, everyone began to be anxious, even including the princes who originally supported Ying Xiaoyue.

"It was King Jingnan's people, King Jingnan's personal soldiers and the sailors of the Beijiang battalion who crossed the Lanwang River and took over the soldiers and horses of the king of Hejian on the opposite side. The herald finished in one breath.

"How many soldiers and horses are there?" asked Meng Ke, looking at the walls of Lone Ye City.

"Seventy thousand. ”

Meng Ke shook his head, the hope of relying on his subordinates to hold on to Lone Ye City was basically gone. If the number of soldiers and horses on the opposite side is 30,000, then the 3,000 forbidden troops defending the city can still be stopped, but it is 70,000.

Moreover, the number of 70,000 will increase as the Beijiang battalion continues to mobilize troops. Besides, they are now under attack, and in this case, they can't hold it at all.

"Isn't there any news from the marshal's side right now?"

Monco asked, the situation was no longer something that his little lieutenant could decide.

If one is not good, the military disaster may spread directly, and when the time comes, none of the people here will want to go back alive.

"When I came, the commander had already mobilized 3,000 soldiers and horses to go north. The herald said hesitantly.

This news is really not good news, if it is the natural danger that occupies Guye City, no matter how many enemies come from the opposite side, three thousand forbidden troops are enough.

But this time it was different, the other party was directly stabbed from the back of Lone Ye City.

To put it bluntly, the city has now become a lonely city. If he wanted to hold this place, Monko felt that he would need an army of forty or fifty thousand, to say the least.

Three thousand soldiers and horses plus three thousand, that is, six thousand, this start is a hellish difficulty.

And these things, not the worst. Even if there are only 6,000 people, the food and grass that people need to eat every day is not a small number.

With the materials stored now, even if the other party besieges but does not attack, the city will be taken by the other party in a month at most.

"General, what should we do now?"

The lieutenant had obviously never seen such a bad scene, so he had no idea at this time.

"Speed up the work you are doing, and then start building the inner city. Monco's face darkened.

The original location of Lone Ye City was a border city, and the current scale was expanded later. And before the expansion, Guye City actually had a city wall.

It's just that due to disrepair, some places have been demolished and houses have been built. But now is not the time to be reasonable, the houses built on the original site of the city walls were taken by the forbidden army and then demolished.

As for the lack of bricks for the construction of the walls, the matter is quite simple, and there are a lot of masonry in several warehouses. Naturally, these bricks and stones were expropriated, as were the masonry used to build the warehouse.

At that time, Monke was still a little concerned about how these rich men had so many bricks and stones in their hands, but when he grabbed two tongues and asked, he realized that these bricks and stones were used to repair the city wall.

However, it was not the one who helped the imperial court build the city wall, but the one who helped the king of Hejian County to build the city wall.

It is true that this guy wants to break away from Western Qin, but this does not mean that he has no brains.

To win the dream of the Xianyang country, just do it, and the practical thing is to keep the city on the river plain. By the way, to expand the territory, these cities that he took naturally need to build walls for defense.

He originally planned to completely pull out the other two front teeth after taking Guye City.

After the three front teeth city is won, even if there are three more road crossings.

These three cities are of little use to the Hejian County King and the Hejian Plain, but if they are in the hands of the Western Qin court and become a springboard for the court to attack his territory, then he will be uncomfortable.

After understanding what happened, Meng Ke directly waved his hand and slaughtered these rich people who were obviously already opposed.

The execution was held in public, and it was impossible to hide it from others.

And what Monco has to do now is to completely deter those with bad intentions in the city.

"This Meng Ke is really bold, but the military advisor, those people under your command can't do it. ”

The king of Hejian looked at the report in his hand and said to Bai Yan on the side.

Bai Yan took the report, and after just a cursory glance, he knew what this person was talking about. Beiyan's spies are professional, and they sent the information back a few days ago.

But this matter is not a matter at all in his eyes.

Now, what Monco did was use these bricks and stones to build the walls. What they had to do was also to build the walls with these bricks.

Now it's just someone who helps them do these things, the difference is that they can repair it themselves and use it directly, or use it after they have beaten it down.

"Now they are just working for us, I believe that when Guye City is in our hands, they will regret what they did today. ”

Bai Yan said very calmly, but when he looked at the King of Hejian County, he also had a little more disdain.

This guy had boasted that he had infiltrated several nearby cities, and that the intelligence network had been fully established. The one that blows is called a heaven and earth, and there is no other.

Now it seems that the intelligence network he is proud of is nothing more than that, and the news transmission is more than two days later than Beiyan's spies.

Even if it is an ordinary team, there are many variables in two days, not to mention that the team in front of it is still the elite forbidden army in the Western Qin army.

"This is a dereliction of duty, but I remember that you were responsible for contacting this batch of masonry. ”

The king of Hejian County wanted to give up at this time, he had already noticed that these people in Beiyan looked down on him. I finally got an opportunity to taunt, and naturally I won't let it go easily.

"The target of this batch of masonry is too big, and there is no one who can hide this batch of masonry that is not the target of others. ”

Bai Yan said very calmly, obviously not taking the other party's accusation to heart.

King Hejian felt a little stuffy in his chest for a while, like a punch that he had been accumulating for a long time, and the feeling of hitting the cotton.

"Now the third son of King Jingnan has mobilized the Jiangbei camp to fully assist, I hope that the king of Hejian County will not disappoint. ”

The King of Hejian twitched, this matter was really his weakness.

I think I wrote secret letters myself, and I've been writing them for almost ten years, and those guys are like hardcores, all of them are loyal.

Just when he decided to go it alone, this envoy from Beiyan suddenly came out. It's not enough to come out, but directly make up for the shortcomings of his own sailors.

The news of the complete rebellion of the Beijiang camp was quickly spread, and the situation that was originally the defeat of the king of Hejian County was suddenly a lot of variables.

Ying Xiaoyue looked at King Jingnan kneeling in front of her, and she couldn't help but feel a burst of fire in her heart.

However, she knew that this matter could not be all counted on the head of King Jingnan. It can even be said that it has nothing to do with the two people kneeling on the ground now, King Jingnan, and King Jingnan's great prince can be said to be a staunch royalist.

In order to express his loyalty, the king of Jingnan has even handed over his military power and is a hostage in Xianyang.

But who knows that this King Jingnan is indeed loyal, but his son is a second and fifth boy. Especially the third son, in such a short period of time, he completely hollowed out the Beijiang camp.
