Chapter 173 Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers

The next day, in a military camp somewhere on the road, Han Yiba was holding the official document sent by Niu Xuangu in his hand, at first he thought that he was dizzy and misread, but he read it more than a dozen times in a row, and the more he looked at it, the more excited he became, and his hands trembled a little.

At this time, Han Bing walked in from outside the tent and said, "Dad, you called me?"

Han Yiba stood up suddenly, handed him the official document in his hand, and said excitedly: "Take a look, Qingliang Hou has won the first battle!"

Han Bing took the official document and said happily: "Really, it seems that Qinglianghou really did not disappoint us." ”

Han Yi said domineeringly: "Not only did it not disappoint us, but it simply amazed me! The eighteen counties that came to invade were all annihilated, and the most incredible thing is that there was not a single casualty in the six counties under the Qingliang Marquis, and there was no casualty! I have lived for hundreds of years, and I have not heard of it for many years." There is no such precedent for the ancestors of Qingliang Hou, and I feel like I'm dreaming now, it's unbelievable. ”

Han Bing was stunned: "How is this possible? Who sent this official document, it can't be a joke, right?"

Han Yi said domineeringly: "Who dares to play with military affairs? If it was sent by someone else, I really don't believe that it was sent by Niu Xuangu." Besides, my spies outside the gate also reported back, and it was indeed the case, the enemy came tens of thousands of horses, and only a few hundred ran away. ”

Han Bing was quite shocked, and hurriedly read the official document in his hand in detail. The official document is written in great detail, and the ins and outs are clearly written. After reading it, he was silent for a long time before he said: "Qinglianghou is really a genius!"

Han Yi said domineeringly: "I don't admire Qinglianghou at all now, I admire myself, I really have a discerning eye, I know that Qinglianghou will not disappoint me." ”

Han Bing nodded and said, "Father is indeed a discerning eye, and he didn't make the pearl dusty!"

Han Yi said domineeringly: "Fortunately, the Dog Emperor cut his title, otherwise where would I be able to get such a talent? That Dog Emperor must have regretted that his intestines were blue when he got the news." ”

Han Bing said: "It seems that my life should not be extinguished, everything is providence!"

Han Yi said domineeringly: "Now there is Qinglianghou in the west to guard it, don't worry! You go and arrange it, now the focus of our defense should be on the east road, and there is Qinglianghou on the west road, so you can ignore it for the time being." ”

Han Bing nodded and said, "Yes!"

Han Yi said domineeringly: "Also, inform the whole road of this news, this victory is too timely, I need this victory too much to appease people." ”

Han Bing said: "I know this. ”

Han Yi said domineeringly: "By the way, remember to reward the six counties outside the Guanwai!"

Han Bing was stunned and said, "Then what did Qingliang Hou reward him?"

Han Yiba was slightly stunned and sighed: "What Qinglianghou wants, I can't reward it, reward others!"

Han Bing replied and withdrew.

In the Generalissimo's Mansion of Tianlu, oh, now it has become the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhentian. There is a lotus pond in the backyard, and it is now winter, and the lotus leaves are withered, like a pampas fan, covering the water surface tightly. If the poor see it, they will be very pitiful, and they will go down and dig up the lotus root and eat it.

There is a pavilion in the middle of the lotus pond, which is connected to the shore by a straight stone bridge. At this time, there was a man standing by the railing of the pavilion, with a thin body, an eagle hooked nose, triangular eyes, and gloomy eyes, holding a handful of bait in his left hand, and pinching it up with his right hand, and gently sprinkling it into the lotus pond, which attracted a group of colorful fish, competing for food, and causing ripples.

This person is the Generalissimo of Tianlu Lu Changhai.

At this time, a person hurriedly ran over on the stone bridge, his body was no different from Lu Changhai, and he also had an eagle hooked nose, although it was not triangular eyes, but his eyes were also gloomy, probably because of the gathering of similar things. This person was Pei Minqi, who was walking in front of the road, walked behind Lu Changhai, and said hurriedly: "Master Hou, something happened!"

Lu Changhai didn't look back, still unhurriedly sprinkled the bait, and said lightly: "What's wrong?"

Pei Min rode and said: "The people and horses of the eighteen counties that attacked the ground road have lost the battle!"

Lu Changhai was still unfazed, and said: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and it is enough to win back after defeat." ”

Pei Min rode and said: "But this time the defeat is a bit ridiculous!"

Only then did Lu Changhai turn his head and say, "Where is it ridiculous?"

Pei Min rode and said: "The men and horses of our eighteen counties were almost completely wiped out, and only a few hundred people fled back, but the enemy did not have a single casualty. ”

Lu Changhai exclaimed: "What? Where did you hear this news? Did you say it in a joke on the street?"

Pei Min said: "At first, I couldn't believe it, but after many verifications, this is true!"

Lu Changhai frowned and said, "How is this possible? Could it be that the people of these eighteen counties ran to other people's territory to commit suicide?"

Pei Minqi explained the whole process of this matter in detail, but he also pieced together the scattered news, although he knew that the enemy army had surrendered by fraud, but he didn't know what reason he had surrendered, let alone that Fan Xuchao was tempted by the Zengxiu Dan.

Even so, Lu Changhai was furious when he heard this, and scattered all the bait in his hand into the lotus pond, making the fish in the pond half happy. Lu Changhai held back the fire in his stomach and slapped the railing, the railing suddenly shattered and fell into the water, so frightened that the fish fled in all directions. He said angrily: "Waste! A group of waste! Tens of thousands of horses and horses died naked, and they didn't even kill a single enemy, even if they killed a dog, they wouldn't be so ashamed! If this matter is reported, how can you let me meet people in the court? That old guy from Zhennanhou must be grinning now, and he is angry with me. ”

Pei Min rode and said, "As long as we break back a game before this matter gets out." ”

Lu Changhai nodded and said: "That's right, you must break back a game, but the people of the six counties can be wiped out with a snap of your fingers." ”

Pei Min rode and said, "Does Master Hou know who is guarding the six counties?"

Lu Changhai was stunned and said: "What do I care about a small person? It can't be that Zhennanhou himself is in charge." ”

Pei Min rode and said: "The identity is about the same. It is said that Jiang Xiaobai, the former Qingliang Hou, is in charge!"

Lu Changhai exclaimed: "Qingliang Hou?

Pei Min rode and said, "Where is there a second Qingliang Marquis in this Zhongxia Empire?"

Lu Changhai was stunned: "He's not dead yet?"

Pei Min rode and said: "Since you appeared on the ground, you must not be dead." ”

Lu Changhai laughed and said: "It's really a place where the enemies don't get together! I didn't expect this Qingliang Hou to collude with the Zhennan Hou, does he still want to make a comeback?"

Pei Minqi nodded and said, "Looking at it this way, he really wants to make a comeback!"

Lu Changhai's face showed disdain, and said: "Does he think that he is his ancestor Wuwei? A waste who can't even keep his title still wants to make a comeback? It seems that if I don't send him to see his ancestor Wuwei, he won't know how many catties and taels he has? Pass on my order and transfer me to fifty counties!"

Pei Minqi was taken aback and said, "Fifty counties, but the enemy only has six counties, isn't it a bit too much?"

Lu Changhai sneered and said, "Since he is willing to use his mantis arm as a car, then he should be crushed to pieces, not half dead!"

Pei Minqi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it." ”

Lu Changhai said: "Choose a more reliable person this time, don't be like Fan Xuchao's waste." ”

Pei Min rode and said: "Don't worry, Master Hou, this time I will personally select it, and there will definitely be no more mistakes." ”

A few days later, Jiang Xiaobai was sitting in the room practicing, and someone outside reported that it was Lord Niu asking to see him in the main hall.

Jiang Xiaobai came to the main hall, but found that several county lords were there, and to his surprise, it turned out that Wang Qinghu and Chen Jingru were here, and several county lords were talking with them.

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai, everyone stood up, and Niu Xuangu put on a smiling face and said, "Chief County Lord, I brought you the person you want." I really didn't expect that the chief county lord is really the leader of the Thousand Zhai Alliance, throughout the ages, there is such ability, except for the chief county lord, there will definitely not be a second person, I am now admiring the five bodies. ”

Several other county lords echoed one after another, and when they heard that the chief county lord was the leader of the Thousand Villages Alliance, it was really thunderous and shocking. What kind of place is the Qianzhai Alliance? To them, it is really the Longtan Tiger's Den, a place of extreme ferocity, where bandits are like clouds, eating people without spitting out bones, geese have plucked their feathers, and people have left blood, and even hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Blood Lan Kingdom have broken their halberds and sunk in the sand there, which makes people frightened. In other words, although they have the cultivation of five or six grades of Jindou, they dare not go, and if they go, they are also in the mouth of the tiger. But the chief county lord is young and his cultivation is not high, but he has already claimed the king and hegemony in the land of Longtan and Tiger's Den, how can they not be surprised? How can they not sigh? How can they not be convinced?

Jiang Xiaobai smiled: "I am a bandit, you are an official, how can an official admire a bandit?"

Niu Xuangu was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "The official bandit family, the official bandit family!"

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said, "The official and bandit family? ”

Wang Qinghu walked over, grabbed his arm, and said: "Alliance leader, I finally see you again, parting is really a wordless pain, this period of days without the alliance leader, the sky of Zhenxian Mountain is gray, I miss the alliance leader all the time?"

Jiang Xiaobai glared at him and said, "Put away your hypocrisy, I don't like it." ”

Wang Qinghu hurriedly said: "I am from the bottom of my heart, how can it become hypocritical? It seems that the alliance leader does not think about me, and he can't understand the wordless pain." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "I think you have been in the women's den for too long, and you are becoming less and less like a man." ”

Wang Qinghu was stunned and said: "Alliance leader, don't scare me, no wonder I always feel that my chickens have become smaller during this time, and they won't be infected by women, right?"

Jiang Xiaobai glared at him again, ignored him, but looked at Chen Jingru and said, "Jingru, why are you here too?"

Chen Jingru knelt down and said, "Apprentice to see Master!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "In the future, these false gifts will be waived, get up!"

Chen Jingru responded, then stood up, and said: "The apprentice and the master have been separated for a year, and I am worried in my heart, I heard that Wang Zhai is coming to find the master, and I can't help myself, so I also followed, without the permission of the master, I came without permission, and I asked the master not to be angry!"
