Jiang Xiaobai said: "How are you practicing the wood-burning knife technique?"

Chen Jingru said: "Half a month ago, you can already burn wood!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "It seems that you work very hard!"

Chen Jingru said: "Don't dare to disappoint Master. ”

Jiang Xiaobai sighed: "Since the sword technique is successful, it is time to come out and see the world." ”

Chen Jingru said happily: "In this way, the master agrees that I will stay? I'm afraid that the master will drive me back when I come here!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Is Zidongzhai arranged?"

Chen Jingru nodded and said: "I'm not interested in the position of the owner of the village, I don't like to do those things that rob the house, I have already handed over Zidongzhai to my senior brother, and I will follow the master wholeheartedly in the future, this is much more interesting than the Thousand Village Alliance." Just now I heard from several county lords that Master had just annihilated the enemy of the eighteen counties, and I felt so sorry that I couldn't catch up with Master to fight side by side. ”

Wang Qinghu said: "Our alliance leader is wise and powerful, and he still needs to fight side by side with you? Even if you catch up, it is just to move stones!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "If you want to fight, there will be opportunities in the future." ”

Wang Qinghu said: "By the way, alliance leader, why did you summon me all the way over? Isn't it just to see me? Then I will be flattered." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "I asked you to come because you still have the value of use, otherwise I wouldn't be rare for you." ”

Wang Qinghu pouted and said, "Alliance leader, you hurt my heart again, my heart hurts so much." ”

Jiang Xiaobai gritted his teeth and said: "Wang Qinghu, you talk like this disgusting, believe it or not, I will let people drag you out and beat you to the flesh now?"

Wang Qinghu was startled, and said with a smile: "Don't take it as an example, don't take it as an example!" By the way, I still have a surprise for you. He turned around and brought a wooden basket from the table on the side, handed it to Jiang Xiaobai and said: "When Mrs. Yu saw me coming to look for you, her eyes were very red, and she wanted to come with her, but the Qianzhai Alliance could not be left without an owner for a day, and she couldn't come if she wanted to, so she made some snacks with her own hands, saying that they are your favorite food, let me bring them to you." ”

Jiang Xiaobai took Tilan and said movingly: "Sister has a heart." ”

Wang Qinghu said: "But I secretly tasted two on the road, I don't feel good, it's not as delicious as I did, if the alliance leader likes to eat, I can make it for you every day in the future, it's still fresh." ”

Jiang Xiaobai glanced at him and said, "You can't make that kind of taste." ”

Wang Qinghu sighed: "I know, that's the taste of affection! It seems that my craftsmanship can only be appreciated by people who can't please a wife like Fengyan." ”

Fortunately, Fengyan is not here, otherwise he would have to fight with him.

Jiang Xiaobai arranged for the two of them to stay, and one of them gave another Zengxiu Pill, which made Wang Fatzi tremble with joy, and his mouth couldn't close, and this trip was really cost-effective.

In the next few days, Jiang Xiaobai led everyone to survey the three counties non-stop, looking for a suitable combat terrain, although they have not seen any trace of the enemy yet, they all know in their hearts that the enemy has sacrificed the people of the eighteen counties in vain, and he will definitely not give up, and he will definitely make a comeback.

Standing on the highest peak of Xinjun, looking into the distance, I saw the mountains layer upon layer, like the undulating waves on the sea, majestic and majestic, there is indeed a husband when the pass, ten thousand people do not open the trend.

Liu Zhisheng sighed: "Fortunately, I didn't come here last time, otherwise I would definitely persuade the chief county lord to retreat here, stick to the mountain, and wait for work." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "It seems that this time the county lord Liu is planning to retreat here?"

Liu Zhisheng said: "Doesn't the chief county lord think like this? Compared to here, Zhijun is a big mound, and there is no danger to defend at all!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "You said the same last time. ”

Liu Zhisheng exclaimed: "Could it be that the chief county lord still plans to stick to Zhijun?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "It's easy to give up some things, but it's difficult to take them back." As a last resort, I don't want to lose a city or a pond in my hands, every inch of land is our living space, and the smaller the place, the more dangerous we are. ”

Buxiu said: "That's it, I'm afraid of what he will do? Anyway, the canyon in Zhijun is still there, and then I will lead the enemy over, and then smash the enemy with a stone, won't we win again?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "I don't have that ability, if you have it, then let you lure the enemy, I don't mind moving stones for you." ”

Feng Yan said: "Unless the enemy sends a pig as the chief county lord this time, it is estimated that Xiao Buxiu wants to lure the enemy, and the enemy will beat out their as soon as he enters the enemy camp, and let him eat it when he fights it." ”

Bu Xiu said disdainfully: "You are a stupid bird, right? Everyone will think that we will not use this trick again, then we will go the opposite way, take it by surprise, and use this trick, the enemy will definitely not think of it, and we will be fooled!"

Feng Yan said: "Little Buxiu, you are really a genius, you don't dare to think about others, you don't dare to do it, that's okay, then I'll leave this difficult task to you, but I won't follow you this time, I don't want to be beaten out by others." ”

Buxiu said: "Look at your little bit of interest, you think I dare to go, I don't dare to go, I feel that this plan is perfect, it's a pity not to say it." ”

Jiang Xiaobai turned his head to look at Chen Jingru and said, "Jingru, you have been running away with me for a few days, what do you think?"

Chen Jingru didn't expect the master to ask him alone, his expression tightened, and he said, "I don't know how many soldiers and horses the enemy will come?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "It should be no less than twenty counties." ”

Everyone was shocked, the eighteen counties had already scared them half to death, and if they came to the twenty counties, would they not let them live?

Chen Jingru muttered, "Why don't we transfer the people of the Thousand Villages Alliance?"

When it comes to the bandits of that county, even hundreds of thousands of horses and horses in the Blood Lan Country can be defeated, and only twenty counties of people and horses, when they encounter the bandits of this county, it is estimated that they will be gnawed to the point that there are no bones left. Several county lords were in good spirits, and Liu Zhisheng hurriedly said: "This is a good idea!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Since ancient times, officials and bandits have not been separated, if something happens to the Qianzhai Alliance, will the Zhongxia Empire send troops to rescue it? Compare your heart with your heart, don't embarrass my brother in the Qianzhai Alliance. ”

Several county lords were disappointed for a while, but the chief county lord also had a point, and it was difficult to say anything more.

Back in Zhijun, within two days, the news came that Tianlu had mobilized fifty counties of people and horses, and had already set off from the camp and would arrive in Zhijun in a few days.

When Jiang Xiaobai got the news, he summoned several county lords to the main hall and told the news to several county lords. Several county lords were so frightened that their faces were like dirt, and the people of the twenty counties had already scared them half to death, not to mention the people of the fifty counties, which was almost ten times their own, and their legs were weak when they thought about it.

Niu Xuangu hurriedly said: "Without further ado, the chief county lord, it's still too late for me to retreat to Xinjun, and if it's too late, I will really be dumped by the enemy." ”

Several other county lords hurriedly said yes.

Jiang Xiaobai said sharply: "In addition to withdrawing, what else will you do?"

Several county lords also felt embarrassed, and their old faces were red, but after thinking about it, they felt that their faces were still not important. Niu Xuangu said: "We don't want to withdraw either, but the enemy has fifty counties, and if we don't withdraw, it will be tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "With your little guts, it is a dead end wherever you retreat." Isn't it a shame to scare you like this before you see the shadow of the enemy?"

Niu Xuangu said: "We are not afraid of death, we are just thinking about the overall situation." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Your overall situation is to obey orders, and then those who retreat will be killed!"

Now Jiang Xiaobai's prestige has long been different from what it used to be, and there is no need to rely on bragging/forcing to deter them, several county lords dare not have any objections, Niu Xuangu said: "We only have the chief county lord Ma Shou, since the chief county lord said not to withdraw, then we will not withdraw, and fight with the chief county lord to the end." It's just that we have too few soldiers and horses now, should we ask for help from Kannai?"

Jiang Xiaobai snorted coldly and said, "You go to Zhennanhou for help, and Zhennanhou goes to ask for help, do you think that life in the Guannai is better now?

Several county lords looked at each other, they were really more popular than people, and they were also fifty county people, they were shocked when they heard it, but the chief county lord listened to it, but he didn't pay attention to it at all, didn't they stand under the same sky, and they didn't lead the same group of people?

However, they were also shocked at first glance, flustered, and were slapped on the head by Jiang Xiaobai, and slowly eased up, feeling that this situation was so familiar, the last time they heard that the strong enemy was coming, they seemed to be so panicked, and rushed to retreat, no wonder the chief county lord said that they couldn't do anything except retreat! Thinking of this, he was indeed a little ashamed, Fan Shutian hugged his fists and said: "Since the chief county lord did not put the people of the fifty counties in his eyes, we can't tolerate them in our eyes, we swear to follow the chief county lord to the death, go to the soup and fight the fire, and we will not give up!"

Liu Zhisheng also said: "Yes, we are just giving some opinions, but we are not afraid of death, we will do whatever the chief county lord says!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "Okay! I'm the attitude I want!" He took out a few pieces of paper from his arms, handed them to Liu Zhisheng, and said: "This is a purchase list, you are responsible for buying all the things on it, you are familiar with the customs, remember to go to the customs to buy, don't let the enemy notice the movement." ”

Liu Zhisheng took the list and glanced at it, and said, "Don't worry, the chief county lord will definitely complete the task." ”

Jiang Xiaobai handed the remaining pieces of paper to Niu Xuangu and said, "These are drawings, you arrange for someone to make the things on them according to the drawings, the sooner the better." ”

Niu Xuangu also glanced at it a few times, raised his head and said, "No problem, I will arrange someone to rush to work overnight, and I will definitely not delay the chief county lord." ”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "Then you guys go and get busy!"

Several county lords answered and retreated.

Bu Xiu leaned in at this time and said, "Alliance Leader, you really didn't take the people of the Fifty Counties into account?"

Jiang Xiaobai glanced at him and said, "Bragging/Can't you brag?"

Feng Yan said: "I just like to watch the young master brag!"

Bu Xiu was stunned: "Then the alliance leader is not sure?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "I'm gambling!"

Buxiu said: "Who are you betting with?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Bet with the sky!"

Bu Xiu was stunned: "What are you betting with the sky?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "You will know what to bet on." ”

Bu Yi nodded and said: "It seems that I have to prepare a way back, this gamble is a living life if I lose! cherish life and stay away from gambling!"
