As soon as the Yuan army retreated for more than 40 miles, it was only after stopping the decline that more than 5,000 people left in front of the battle, including the wolf team brought from the grassland, were completely annihilated, and the losses of artillery, firearms, chariots, grain and grass, weapons and other heavy losses were countless.

When Zhang Qi'an got out of the camp and immediately raised his tent, a Mongolian supervisor asked: "Why did you suddenly withdraw your troops when you saw Xian Cangshan?

Zhang Qi didn't say a word, thinking about his next step, and then Lu Ya said on the side: "Big brother, this defeat is all the fault of the younger brother, I didn't expect that Yi Si Lian was so cunning, he actually cast an iron helmet for the demon army, and more than 5,000 people were really sacrificed in vain." ”

"Alas!" Zhang Qi waved his hand, "Where does the virtuous brother say, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers." How can there be immortals in a war, 5,000 people are just a drop in the bucket, the main force of our army has not been damaged, and the virtuous brother does not have to blame himself. ”

Lu Ya's heart was cold, although Zhang Qi was a famous general, he didn't particularly care about the lives of the five thousand people, it seemed that as long as he was a person who marched and fought, he was so ruthless, and there was no difference between good and bad.

Seeing Lu Ya's expression different, Zhang Qi also knew that he had lost his words, so he changed his words and ordered: "Quartermaster, those 5,000 brothers are well settling, and their families will compensate them with five taels of silver." ”

Lu Ya smiled indifferently, he easily bought a life with only five taels of silver, during the war, human life is really like a mustard, but Zhang Jue's move is indeed rare, if it is other officials, I am afraid that these five taels of silver will not be paid.

Zhang Jue ordered the Jiang family and his son to be sent to Dadu, and Lu Ya hurriedly said: "Wait, I want to expel the Gu poison for Uncle Jiang." Then you let him go. ”

Zhang Qi hesitated for a while. Without replying, the overseer said, "How can this be done, what kind of person are you? Do you want to manipulate the imperial court officials?"

Lu Ya squinted at the prison guard. said: "What kind of person are you, Lord Zhang sacrificed his life to kill the enemy, but you are pointing fingers here?"

The prison guard stood up suddenly, "You are a southerner, Lord Zhang, what do you think this kid should do?"

Zhang Jue was extremely dissatisfied with this prison army, and he obviously gave up the lives of 5,000 brothers in order to take care of the overall situation. But this Mongol counted himself down indiscriminately, and if he was in the future war, I am afraid that he would not be able to show his strength. looked left and right, and saw that they were all his cronies, so he smiled and asked, "Lord Overseer, you said that if you were in front of the battle at that time." What will happen?"

The overseer was stunned. "I asked you what to do with this kid, what are you talking about?"

Zhang Qi said: "I said that if you go to deal with those demon armies, do you have any high opinions?"

The prison soldier said: "Then it is naturally a brave fight to kill the enemy!"

Zhang Qi nodded, "That's good, people on both sides listen, the prison army fought bravely to kill the enemy today, and they have already died in front of the battle." ”

"What did you say?"

The prison guard was stunned, and Zhang Qi had already cut off his head with a knife. Everyone on both sides was shocked, and even Lu Ya was quite surprised.

Zhang Qi said: "Mr. Lu Ya will be the military advisor of our army from today onwards. will be outside. The king's order is not subject to anything, let alone his small prison army?"

Lu Ya admired it in his heart, no wonder Zhang Qi was invincible in all attacks, and he was really very courageous. If you want to be a loyal minister of the previous dynasty, you have to look ahead and look backward when you fight, even Yue Fei was the same back then, if you want to win, you can't listen to the influence of others, even if it is the king's order, you have to disobey. If Yue Fei had Zhang Qi's courage back then, I'm afraid everything would have been different.

Zhang Qi said again: "The prison army has died in battle, tomorrow I will play the Great Khan and ask for credit for the prison army, can everyone present today understand?"

Those people are not stupid, who dares to say a word, and they are all Zhang Qi's cronies, so they said in unison: "Understand!"

At this moment, someone came to report that Mu Chunfeng, the owner of Chunfeng Village, and his wife asked to see him.

Zhang Jue was stunned for a moment, "Mu Chunfeng, what is he doing here?"

Zhang Jue had been to Chunfeng Village before, although he had not seen Mu Chunfeng, but he also knew this person. I just don't know why he came to the front of the two armies, "Please let him in." ”

Not long after, Mu Chunfeng took Su Mei's hand and walked into the big tent, and he didn't greet Zhang Jue, but went straight to Lu Ya, "Lu Shaoxia, you are really here." ”

Lu Ya was also quite surprised to see Mu Chunfeng, "Master Mu, what are you doing here?

Mu Chunfeng smiled, "The old man is fine, just waiting to hold his grandson." ”

When Lu Ya heard this, he sighed, seeing that Su Mei was dressed as a woman, obviously she was already a person who was already Mu Chunfeng, she was a little similar to Yin Lan, and it was even more sad for Lu Ya, and she suddenly looked sad.

Seeing this, Su Mei asked, "What's the matter, Brother Ya......?" Hasn't Miss Yin been found yet?"

Lu Ya shook his head and asked instead, "What are you doing here?" ”

Mu Chunfeng said: "We know that you have to deal with Yi Si Lianzhen, and I specially gave you advice." As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Qi and arched his hand: "Lord Zhang, I am originally a small person in the mountains and wilderness, and I don't understand major national affairs. ”

Zhang Qi nodded, "I don't know what the strategy is, if you can really defeat the demon army, I will reward you with a thousand taels of gold!"

Mu Chunfeng smiled contemptuously, "I have a lot of money, I came to help you, not for money, I also killed my wife's sister, I just avenged my wife." Lu Shaoxia, Master Zhang, please come with me. ”

The two followed Mu Chunfeng to the outside of the camp, but saw twelve carts parked in front of the door, each of which was covered with sackcloth, and the flag of the Voyage Dart Bureau was planted on the car.

Lu Ya's eyes lit up, the Voyage Dart Bureau was the secret eyeliner of Zhongyi Island in Dadu, and at the martial arts competition that year, it was the dart master who disguised himself as the Voyage Dart Bureau to get out of Dadu. "This is my dad...... He sent it?"

Mu Chunfeng smiled, noncommittal, "Hide people's ears." Saying that, he ripped off the linen, it turned out that there were twelve big bells hanging on the car, of different sizes, Mu Chunfeng took a spear and knocked on the bell, the bell was deafening, but it was crisp and pleasant, "How about it?"

Zhang Qi was confused and asked, "What is the use of this big bell? Can it have the power of a cannon?"

Su Mei said: "The cannon may not be able to kill the devil, but these twelve bells are very useful." ”

Lu Ya already understood, and said with a smile: "You mean that you want me to use this bell to control the demons and ask them to turn against us and help us, right?" It's just that I don't know the rhythm...... This shouldn't be Xiao Nan's idea, right?"

"I can't hide anything from you," Mu Chunfeng smiled as he took out a piece of paper from his arms, handed it to Lu Ya and said: "Don't worry if you don't know the rhythm, this is the music score, Xiang Nan has already marked the order and number on it, and when the time comes, you just need to follow the long and short numbers written on it, and knock on the big bell for a while, and the custodian demons will all obey you." ”

Lu Ya was overjoyed, "This trick was taught to us by Yi Si Lianzhen when he was in Suzhou, how could he not have imagined that we would use his method to deal with him, haha, where is Xiao Nan?"

Mu Chunfeng suddenly looked embarrassed, looked at Su Mei, and Su Mei continued: "She can't come." These twelve bells were made by her asking the prince to help you. and the prince, he has also been reused by the Great Khan, and he has returned to the south as the lord of the county. ”

"Oh," Lu Ya nodded, "then...... I'm afraid we'll never be together again. ”

Su Mei said: "Brother Ya, don't be sad, the Great Khan has forgiven the master's guilt because of the rebellion between Xian Cangshan and Yi Si Lianzhen, and the marriage contract between her and Xian Cangshan will naturally be dissolved." ”

"Really?" Lu Ya's expression was gloomy, if Xiang Nan became the county lord again, then he would be unrestrained anywhere, he was just a grass people, how could he afford to climb high? Then this Voyage Dart Bureau must also be Xiang Nan to ask for help, it has nothing to do with her father, Xiao Nan She has already done her best for herself, what else can she ask of her?

Su Mei also knew that Lu Ya was sad, and comforted: "Brother Ya, maybe next year's martial arts competition, she will still recruit relatives? When you win the first warrior, won't you be able to marry her? At that time, you can also be a high-ranking official in the imperial court, and you are still worried about the wrong family, the household is not right?"

Lu Ya smiled sadly, was silent for a long time, and then said, "I won't be an official of the Mongols." That's what my father and master taught me. (To be continued......)
