Yuxiong felt that it was tricky, and it was not a problem to find it like this, so he couldn't help frowning.

A county lord said: "Chief county lord, we stayed on the mountain for one night, and there was nothing abnormal, which means that Qinglianghou did not set a trap here." After all, he has limited manpower, and he doesn't dare to clash head-on with our Baijun people. I searched for a day, and as I searched, I thought that his intention was very simple, that is, to take advantage of the steep mountain, and hide in the middle of the mountain, waiting for us to find them, so that we could divide and destroy them, little by little. He reckoned that we would not find them today, and that tomorrow we would surely cast the net wider and the people more scattered, so that he would have to strike. This ploy is so vicious!"

Yuxiong took a deep breath and nodded: "What you said is not unreasonable, as far as it is concerned, there is only this possibility, otherwise why hide in the mountains? ”

The county lord said: "They can't go back now if they want to, this mountain is too dangerous, they must all go on foot, without the cover of the mountain, they can't move an inch, we can catch up with them in the blink of an eye, and destroy them." ”

Another county lord said, "Yes." In fact, the chief county lord, we have already captured Xinjun, then we have won the battle, and now the three counties outside the gate are in our hands, and our task has been completed. As for those remnants, let them stay in the mountains to fend for themselves, I don't believe that they can stay in the mountains for a lifetime, and when winter comes, we will set fire to the mountains, and if we don't believe that they will not be burned to death, and let them taste the taste of being burned to death!"

Yuxiong sighed: "The strategy of burning the mountain, I haven't thought about it, it is indeed a good policy, I'm afraid that Hou Ye can't wait!"

The county lord said: "In the past, Hou Ye couldn't wait, because we always stood still, so he was in a hurry, and now we have captured the three counties outside the Guanwai, the overall situation has been decided, and only the remaining thing is to slowly clear out the remnants, it is reasonable, presumably Hou Ye will not object." ”

Yuxiong thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll probe the Hou Ye's tone first." ”

Lu Changhai got the news and was overjoyed, Yuxiong really did not disappoint him, not only did he not wipe out the whole army, but he also captured the three counties outside the Guanwai without much effort, it is a pity not to share this exciting thing with the emperor. Look at tomorrow, who will dare to sneer at him in the court?

Lu Changhai went to the palace overnight, and Jiang Licun had not slept yet, so he summoned him in the side hall.

Jiang Licun saw him and said, "What is the important thing that is worthy of Hou Ye coming to play in person at night?"

Lu Changhai could not hide his joy and said: "Yuxiong has already captured the three counties outside the Guanwai, has the emperor heard about it?"

Jiang Licun nodded and said, "I heard a little wind!"

Lu Changhai said: "It seems that this Jiang Xiaobai is also exaggerating, it is an embroidered pillow, I really thought he had a lot of ability, but I didn't expect my army to be overwhelmed, and it was also a touch of collapse, running faster than a rabbit." ”

Jiang Licun said: "Collapse at the touch of a button, how many enemies have you killed?"

Lu Changhai's words softened by half, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said, "There are no numbers yet!"

Jiang Licun said: "It's not that there are no numbers, but the enemy has no casualties at all, right? That Qingliang Hou won the battle, and there were no casualties, and people didn't even lose the battle without casualties, don't you think it's funny?"

Lu Changhai hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty! That Jiang Xiaobai just ran fast and let him slip into the depths of the mountain, but now he is unable to fly with wings, so he can only stay in the mountains and wait for death, and when winter comes, the grass and trees will wither, and a fire can burn them to death." ”

Jiang Licun sighed: "I have also heard about the situation on the front line, although I can't figure out what tricks that Qingliang Hou wants to play, but I always feel that he is not so simple, and I always feel that he is plotting a big move." ”

Lu Changhai said: "Why does the emperor want to grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige? Everyone can't figure out what tricks he wants to play, which means that he has no tricks, he is already exhausted, I don't believe that he alone will be smarter than all of us?"

Jiang Licun let out another long sigh and said, "I hope so!"

Lu Changhai said: "The emperor will wait and see! This time I will definitely want that cool marquis to be wiped out!"

Qinglianghou sneezed at this time, lay on a boulder on the top of the mountain, wiped his nose, and said, "Who is talking bad about me?"

Buxiu lay down beside him and said, "It's not me anyway, I haven't even let out a fart!" It must be those people below who are speaking ill of you, bringing them to the mountains to suffer, mosquito bites, so hot that they can't even sleep, they can't even spill a soak of urine a day, they all turn into sweat, and the little brother is completely an ornament, and can only be used to distinguish between men and women. ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "That's what you think in your heart, right?"

Buxiu said: "How is it possible? I, Buxiu, know the righteousness, how can I have such despicable thoughts?"

Feng Yan lay on the other side of Jiang Xiaobai, and said at this time: "You can be content, fortunately it's summer, it's just a little sin, at least you can save your life, if it's winter, those guys will definitely set fire to the mountain, and we won't even have a place to run." ”

Bu Xiu sighed: "We now have all our hopes on Wang Fatzi alone, usually see him blow his cowhide bigger than the sky, I don't know if it will work, if he misses, we will all follow the play, don't wait for the enemy to burn, I can scare myself to death." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "With Bai Dou's cultivation, Wang Fatzi can open a mountain and establish a village in the land of tigers and wolves in the Thousand Zhai Alliance, and settle down, it is not a fluke, he is still a little capable." ”

Buxiu said: "I'm afraid of what happens!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "This is a battlefield, not a workshop, it is a place of death and life, do you think you are here for a vacation?"

Bu Xiu said: "Maybe I'm still too naïve! By the way, alliance leader, why did you say that Yuxiong sent someone out to look for it and didn't look for it for a day? It seems that we can't use so many holes we have prepared." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "They are also very entangled now, twist into a rope and come out to find it, but they can't find much place, spread out and look for it, and they are afraid that they will be broken by each of us." I see that they have walked a little bit on the first day, and they must be afraid in their hearts, or the wind and rumors fought beautifully, and they were frightened, maybe they are waiting for winter to come now!"

Bu Xiu said: "Alliance leader, then when will you find me a small stick like Fengyan, and let me go out majestic." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "The ruler is short, the inch is long, you don't have to force everything, you have to explore your own advantages, I think your mouth is much more powerful than a stick." ”

Buxiu pouted and said: "My mouth is not a woman's mouth, no matter how flexible the stick is, it can be contained, but I hate that I am a man." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Buxiu, you owe a beating again, right?"

Buxiu smiled and said, "There are no outsiders here!"

Yuxiong's hundred counties lived on the mountain for a few days, and they lived more difficult than Jiang Xiaobai, the water transported down the mountain every day was pitiful, on such a hot day, sweat was like rain every day, and hundreds of thousands of horses did not drink enough, let alone take a bath, and after a few days, the smell of sweat could be smelled under the mountain. What's even more uncomfortable is that they don't even have food every day, they can only eat dry food, which is like adding fuel to the fire, and their throats are about to smoke.

After five days, fortunately, the people who had drunk the well water did not die, and there was nothing abnormal, so Yuxiong was relieved and allowed to use the well water.

This made the people of Baijun very happy, and surrounded the well with three layers inside and three layers outside, and the waist-thick bucket didn't have time to lift water, and everyone drank it to the fullest. Fortunately, the wells on the mountain were all hit above the springs, and they drank quickly, and the water grew quickly, and after drinking for a long time, the water level did not drop in the slightest.

Although there is also water in the mountains, no one dares to drink it, after all, it is inconvenient to guard it, and it is easy to be poisoned. And this well, since they went up the mountain, they have sent dozens of people to guard it day and night in turn, and there will be no problems.

The night was peaceful.

Near dawn, there was a sudden movement in the well, and the wall of the well built with stones was originally neat and smooth, but at this time, a stone actually moved, and then it was slowly pumped in, very slowly, slower than ants climbing, without a sound. After the stone was pumped in, a hole appeared, and after a while, a human head poked out of the hole, looking around like a mouse, and after making sure that it was not found, an arm poked out of the hole again, holding a porcelain bottle that had been opened, which contained white powder, and poured it into the well water in one go, and then the man slowly retracted it, and slowly pushed the stone out, and there was no abnormality at all.

This person is none other than Wang Qinghu. This hole has been dug for several months, before the army went up the mountain, Wang Qinghu got into the hole, stayed for six or seven days, has been waiting for an opportunity, yesterday heard the sound of intensive water, and the conversation on the well, he knew that Yuxiong had relaxed his vigilance.

When the light came, a few firemen came over and began to fetch water, wash vegetables and rice.

At this time, another monk came, holding a mandala jade needle in his hand, three inches long, with the thickness of his fingers, and his whole body was snow-white. Mantuoyu is extremely sensitive to water quality, as long as the water is poisonous, it will immediately turn black, sometimes no one is poisoned, but the water quality is not good, it will change color slightly.

The monk said, "Get out of the way, let me see if there is any poison in the water?"

A fireman laughed and said, "Yesterday, so many people drank it and were fine, how could it be poisonous? Even if it was poisonous, it was too late, and they all drank it." ”

The monk glared at him and said, "So you can only cook for a lifetime, without a little vision, what if a master sneaks in at night? ”

Although the fireman was unimpressed, he was helpless and had no choice but to say anything, so he smiled and brought the bucket in front of him, saying, "Then you can try!"
