The city defense battle was a complete victory, and the generals in the city breathed a sigh of relief.According to experience, these barbarians should retreat when they see that the city cannot be attacked.But this time the Di tribe didn't know what happened, and they were stationed outside Nanping City.

In the next few days, the Di troops continued to harass and attack.Make the city guards unbearable.Generally speaking, the infantry of the Han nationality has little advantage over the cavalry of the nomads, but the infantry is stronger in the case of defending the city.Therefore, although the enemy invaded frequently, Nanping City and most of the Yinping area behind it were well guarded in the hands of Li Shun, the prefect who liked to fight steadily.

"The barbarians went south just for food and grass. There's no reason why they would spend so much manpower in a battle that didn't win?"

"We don't have enough food and grass, and the court still hasn't allocated troops and food. How long will it last if this continues?"

"The sheriff has already transferred people and food from the rear, but I don't think it will last long. Did you say that the Di tribe has the support of the Huns?"

The two school lieutenants who were chatting outside the military account both sighed at this moment, if this is the case, it would be a disaster for no reason.The barbarians are like grass on the fence, whichever side has more interests, they will take refuge in that side.Originally, the Han Dynasty would win over these barbarians in order to stabilize the border, but now that the tax revenue of the Han Dynasty has been reduced year after year, it cannot maintain itself, let alone use property to win over the barbarians.Shanyu Shanyu, who originally surrendered to the Han Dynasty, betrayed the Han Dynasty a few years ago, and Liangzhou and Yizhou North also fell into the melee.

The two shook their heads helplessly, saluted each other and said goodbye.

"Does Zhihuai have something on his mind?" Jia Xu turned Sima's face and asked, standing behind Nan Xing, as if he wasn't the one who read the joke on the female wall with malicious intentions that day.After that day, the two called each other Biaozi. Although Jia Xu didn't contribute much, the two had faced the enemy together after all.

"I'm just thinking of a way to retreat from the enemy." Nan Xing said equally indifferently.Jia Xu is a double-faced person, only those truly powerful lords can suppress him and prevent him from being a demon.Nan Xing felt that he didn't have this kind of self, and he didn't intend to have anything to do with this person.There is no way, she is cowardly, afraid of being stabbed in the back.Besides, she can't tell Jia Xu what she thinks!

"He defeated the enemy in the first battle, the captain... no, the captain is really a young hero!" Jia Xu complimented without expression, and it seemed that he was not sincere at all.

Nan Xing played an important role in the last confrontation with the enemy. He defeated the enemy and finally saved enough military resources to be promoted to the rank of captain.Now she can also be called "Little General".In fact, it can be promoted faster, but because Nan Xing has not been sent to the front line, the number of heads is not enough, so it is delayed.

In the previous battle of defending the city, the number of heads was enough, so she was promoted.Now Jia Xu calls her "School Captain" instead of "Little General" just to remind her to continue harvesting heads!

"Don't worry about it, if Wenhe wants to go home as soon as possible, I can send someone to see him off." Nan Xing said with a smirk, focusing on sending him away as soon as possible.If he dared to sow discord with Li Shun, it would be really difficult for her.

Who knows why this person was very rude when he first met her, and she didn't know what she did wrong.

Nanxing is in a period of irritability. The long-trusted intelligence network has been destroyed by the enemy. Do they know how much manpower and material resources are needed to cultivate a trustworthy spy?Now because of the stupid criticism of the Di clan, most of his staff in the Western Regions have lost contact. Nan Xing is very irritable now, and he doesn't want to play Tai Chi with Jia Wenhe who feels that he has malicious intentions.

Jia Xu probably saw that Nan Xing didn't want to chat with him for a long time, so he said very sensiblely, "Xu is a Han citizen, so I should contribute to the country. There is a war in Nanping, and I will help to rescue the siege. Since the captain is in a hurry, I will wait another day Stop bothering me." Then he bowed and left.

At this moment, Nan Xing was thinking about his intelligence points and spies, so he saluted and bid farewell to Jia Xu immediately.

I don't know if it's because there have been too many unlucky days recently, but when he returned to his house, Nan Xing received good news.

Information came from the "Yueguan" where Shanyu Shanyu, the Southern Xiongnu in Liangzhou, mingled and sang operas, although it was more than half a month ago.

"I guess it's because the information point between Liangzhou and Yizhou was cut off, so the information is so slow." "Yin" under Nan Xing added, defending his colleague.Since the Di tribe has strengthened the wall and cleared the wilderness, it is natural to deal with all the people and wealth at the border of Yi and Liangzhou, and no one is allowed to leave, so the "shops" they have placed in various places will not be spared.

Without a transfer station, it would be troublesome to deliver the news.Especially when pigeons are not available outside the Great Wall.

Nan Xing waved him back and opened up the hard-won information.

"The second son of the Di tribe saw Shan Yu and surrendered to fight for the position. He was supported and wanted to offer Shan Yu as a gift from the back of Yinping. Shan Yu's Han counselors said that in order to protect the concealment, please strengthen the wall and clear the country. I hope to retreat quickly."

Nan Xing twitched her lips. It is not uncommon for Han people to defect to the Xiongnu. With such a vicious scheme, if Jia Xu wasn't here, she would have thought it was Jia Xu who did it.

The method of fortifying the wall and clearing the field was originally used to resist the invasion of powerful enemies, but now it is used to keep secrets, and the effect is outstanding!Nan Xing thought happily.

The last two days may also be tired, and the Di tribe's attacks are no longer frequent.Nan Xing planned to find an excuse to meet Li Shun tomorrow and tell him about it.

Throwing the note into the stove, Nan Xing thought about it.Since it's just for the sake of being superior, it's easy to handle.It is not a big problem for Eli to lure him to persuade him to surrender, and then let him defect.

Unexpectedly, before she could think of a reason, someone came to her door.

Looking at Jia Xu in Tsing Yi outside the door, Nan Xing really couldn't control his expression.It doesn't matter whether she is preconceived or looks at people with prejudice, anyway, she really doesn't want to deal with this person, why does he keep looking for her!

"Wen He is really free, why come to visit at this time?" What time is it?What are you doing here?

"I guess the captain is free at this time. I'm in a foreign land and it's hard to communicate with people. It's just right to see the sunset, so I'm here to have a drink with the captain." I knew you in Nanping. If I have something to do now, of course I come to you up!You see I brought wine to bribe you.

Nan Xing let him into the yard with a smile on his face, and asked, "I don't know what's going on with Wenhe, why can't I speak to the sheriff?" It's useless for you to come to me. If you need something, go to the sheriff!

"A certain low-minded person, if you want to make meritorious service, you need to be recommended by the captain!" You have just made meritorious service, and those big bosses are convinced of you, of course you need to be recommended to make me reused.

"Then do you have a nomination certificate?"

"nature."

As soon as Nan Xing heard this, he stopped practicing Tai Chi and asked someone to go into the study with her.After sitting down, he asked directly, "I don't know what trick you have?"

"Watching the battle that day, I had some doubts." Jia Xu opened the small pottery bottle he brought, poured wine for Nan Xing and himself, and continued, "Why did the Di clan not withdraw after losing a large number of clansmen?"

"In the past few days, I have thought about it a lot and figured out the joints. The command of the Di tribe may have other plans!" Jia Xu said lightly. , very familiar with the style and habits of the Hu people.If he guessed right, then the commander of the Di tribe's army should have come here to fight for the right of succession.

Thinking of the news he heard when he left Wuwei, Jia Xu is [-]% sure of this judgment.

"It's nothing more than the pasture, the leader's position!" Nan Xing took a sip of his wine, and then continued Jia Xu's words.She already had information, and now she said this to make herself appear less predictable.

"Of course." Jia Xu raised his eyelids and glanced at Nan Xing who was answering the conversation. He was not shocked, as long as he observed carefully, many people could find something was wrong, especially in the past so many days that the Di tribe's army was unable to attack for a long time. It is abnormal to persist so much.

However, he had a hunch that the communication between himself and the young captain would be smooth.

As he expected, the communication with Nan Xing was very smooth, as if Nan Xing knew what he wanted to say.

Nan Xing was seriously thinking about Jia Xu's proposal.It was nothing more than asking him to meet the command of the Di tribe troops to lure him.This is similar to what Nan Xing thought at the time, so he easily followed his train of thought.

Given that some details were used by Jia Xu for his meritorious service, Nan Xing did not continue to ask.He promised to recommend him to Li Shun tomorrow, and then sent Jia Xu out of the house.

After the recommendation, Nan Xing never asked about Jia Xu again. He only knew that the Di tribe withdrew their troops and took Jia Xu away after a while.Li Shun said that Jia Xu had been honored as a guest by the second prince of the Di clan and was escorted back to Wuwei.

"It's outrageous." Nan Xing and Butler Tang, who came with new guards after hearing that Nanping was besieged, complained about it.

Tang Butler was still silent, but his face was full of spring breeze.A few months ago, Lushui gave birth to a boy for him, and he was just happy.But when your master is trapped, of course it is important to rescue him first.

This time the crisis was resolved too quickly, and he got out of the siege before he arrived.Nan Xing also wrote to him, but Tang Butler felt that there was not enough manpower in the north, so he might as well fill them with the people he brought, and came anyway.

"I see you are quite happy."

"Well, I'm very happy." Nan Xing generously admitted his joy.Jia Xu is a cruel person who can put tens of thousands of lives at risk for his own benefit.He's just a jerk, the longer he stays here, the more dangerous it will be, it's better for him to leave early.

Butler Tang nodded, remaining silent as usual.However, Nan Xing always felt that he was complaining about something in his heart again.I didn't care about him, anyway, I complained about her more than once or twice in my heart.Anyway, it doesn't matter, just treat it as a small hobby of your subordinates!

It's a pity that both master and servant were happy too early.

Nan Xingdu left Nanping with his subordinates because of dispatch, leaving only the "hermits" to rebuild the intelligence network.Nan Xing found that it was not suitable to set up fixed intelligence points in these war-torn areas. This time, he asked the intelligence personnel to imitate the "music hall" model, pretending to be merchants, entertainers, etc. to move around the territory, and set up a fixed contact person in each city. There are no shops.If there is danger, everyone can escape.

When Nan Xing ordered people to teach them, he emphasized three things that must be done: they must be loyal to the master, they must be loyal to the organization, and they must protect themselves.

For this accident, Nan Xing will find a way to get back for the sacrificed spies.

Nan Xing received Li Shun's order just after returning to the defense after passing through Yinping County.March to the northeast to wipe out the Di people in the territory.
