Scorching

Now that Leng Zhuo's life and death are uncertain and his whereabouts are unknown, Marquis Leng will take care of government affairs on his behalf. After Marquis Leng became regent, the first thing he did was to arrest Bai Feng, Ji Ting and others.But Bai Lin and Bai Lu have been arrested and imprisoned.Mu Jin returned to the north with the withdrawn [-] "Beiling" elite soldiers.

Chamber.

"Bai Feng and others rebelled, and our Imperial Forest Army lost all 3 troops. Thanks to the support of 'Beiling', we suppressed the remaining 10 troops from 'Dongmo' and 'Nanwen'. We now have a central army of [-] and ' Simon's army has [-] troops in addition to those guarding the frontier, that is, [-] horses. Yasukuni has [-] troops stationed in the north of our country to prevent enemy attacks, and in the current form, Lu Moya will definitely increase troops. To fight against our country's [-] 'Bei Ling' army." Leng Hou stood in front of the border map of Ye State hanging on the wall, analyzing it carefully, and sitting below were the right minister Yun Songyan, Mu Guogong, Leng Ran and others Some of the veteran generals said, "According to my estimation, there will be at least [-] additional troops. Moreover, the eastern part of our country was originally the former site of the Yun Kingdom, and Lu Moya will definitely take advantage of the vacancy and attack the imperial capital."

"My lord, I wonder how many troops our country can mobilize now?" An old general asked aloud.

"There is 'Beiling' in the north, so there is no need to send troops; there is 'Simon' in the west, and the foreigners have surrendered, so there will be no danger; while in the east, we need to send 12 elite soldiers just in case; as for the south..." Leng Hou carefully Thinking about it, he muttered something from time to time,~ "The south is Baifeng's base camp. After Baifeng's rebellion fails, he will definitely return there, and there should be about [-] soldiers in his and Ji Ting's hands. It will be a tough nut to crack. After Bai Feng meets Ji Ting, he should go straight north, waiting for Lu Moya to break through the northern border of our country and join him. At that time, this imperial capital will be the turtle in the urn."

Yun Songyan and Mu Guogong looked at Leng Hou's reasonable and well-founded analysis here, and felt in their hearts: The Leng family really has a lot of talents.

"I don't know how the prince deduced these things?" Another old general asked.Although these old generals admire Leng Hou very much, they cannot rely on this kind of analysis for marching and fighting. What's more, if they are not careful now, they will be in danger of overthrowing the country.

"Guess plus feeling." Leng Hou smiled at everyone with a calm expression.

"Ah?" Everyone was shocked when they heard Leng Hou's answer. They clearly felt great confidence from Leng Hou, but they didn't expect such an answer.

Leng Hou ignored everyone's surprised reaction, but said directly: "I am going to send [-] soldiers to the south to intercept Bai Feng and damage his morale."

"No!" Several old generals took the lead in objecting, "As the lord said just now, Bai Feng has 12 elite soldiers, and our country's [-] soldiers will die in vain? And if there are only [-] left in our central army, how can we fight?" How to resist the risks from all sides?" These veteran generals are all old friends of Nangong Mo, with profound military attainments, but they only know that Leng Zhuo is Nangong Mo's beloved disciple, but they don't know that the military talents of the three sons of the Leng family are all from Nangong Mo Hand-bred out.

"The old general's words are wrong." Leng Hou pointed to the large forest in the south of the border map, "This forest is full of thick fog all day long, the enemy dare not move forward quickly, our army can lure the enemy with 2 elite soldiers, and The remaining 2 people are divided into two groups. Each of the [-] people will bring a thousand archers, approaching from both sides of the forest, and assassinate the enemy carefully on the way. If we can make good use of this environment, then the enemy will be greatly strengthened. hurt."

"Has your lord ever considered that this terrain is harmful to the enemy army, and it is also harmful to our army; it is beneficial to our army, and it is also beneficial to the enemy army." Yun Songyan asked suddenly.

"Prime Minister, don't worry." With a confident smile, Leng Hou turned to Leng Ran and said, "Third brother, you go to the Weiwen Pavilion and borrow a few eagles from him to scout the way and send messages for our army. By the way, please invite son Shu Yuan, I have something important to discuss with him."

In fact, Leng Hou had already figured out how to lay it out, and no one knew when Leng Hou had thought up everything, not even Leng Ran.

The three brothers of the Leng family, Leng Hou is calm and calm, and his thinking is extremely meticulous; Leng Zhuo cares about the world, but sometimes he is emotional;Originally, according to the tradition, Leng Hou should be the successor, but Leng Hou left home because of his refusal, and left a letter, thinking that Leng Zhuo was more suitable to be the king than him.Leng Hou likes freedom all his life, and he doesn't like to be entangled in government affairs. Instead of playing tricks day and night, it is better to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, observe the sky, and test the destiny. The years when Leng Hou left home just shaped his sharper feelings.

However, Leng Hou's talent is no less than that of Leng Zhuo.The three brothers of the Leng family are taught by one person, but they have their own styles in the way of fighting: Leng Zhuo likes to use surprise soldiers; Leng Ran likes to attack at night; and Leng Hou will deploy in advance and make full use of everything that can be used.

What Leng Hou said just now in the meeting hall seems difficult to convince people, but it is very likely to happen.

The crowd had dispersed long ago, and only Leng Hou was left in the meeting hall.

Standing quietly, Leng Hou tapped his fingers on the table lightly. Leng Hou felt that if he had guessed correctly, he would have the answer after Qi Shuyuan came.

"Brother." Leng Ran, who had gone to the Unheard Pavilion, called outside the door.

Listening to the sound, Hou Leng pushed open the door and walked out. There were about fifty masked men in red clothes, each of them stood on their shoulders with an eagle with yellow eyes and black eyes. It was exactly the same as what I saw in the Green Firefly Palace that day.

Leng Hou nodded after seeing Qi Shuyuan, who responded with a smile.

To be honest, Leng Hou didn't know how many eagles the Weiwen Pavilion had bred. He thought it would be enough to borrow ten of them.

"Mr. Shu Yuan, please." Leng Hou pointed to the meeting hall, motioning Qi Shuyuan to go inside and talk again.

"My lord, please first." Qi Shuyuan smiled slightly, and then followed Leng Hou into the meeting hall, while Leng Ran and those people were waiting outside.

Inside the chamber.

Leng Hou and Qi Shuyuan stood face to face.

Leng Hou was the first to speak: "My second younger brother always said that if Qi Shuyuan of Yunguo was more ambitious, he would definitely rule the world."

"I'm sorry." Qi Shuyuan replied flatly, "I didn't intend to be an emperor, I just hope that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Now it seems that it's really good not to be an emperor."

"Mr. Shu Yuan really knows people. Leng Hou admires him. But," Leng Hou paused intentionally, "this Jingguo Road Moya is too ambitious, and I'm afraid it will hurt the son's citizens."

"Don't worry, my lord, I have my own plan." Qi Shuyuan didn't know what Leng Hou wanted to say, the person in front of him was much more difficult to deal with than Leng Zhuo.

"That's good." Leng Hou once again affirmed the thoughts in his heart, "I will draw [-] from the Central Army to guard the east, and the rest will be handed over to the young master."

Qi Shuyuan finally saw the horror of Leng Hou: Leng Hou only took [-] elite soldiers to resist the Yasukuni's possibly hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. So, did he expect his last card?

"By the way, I wonder if my lord has heard of Jin Chanyi?" Leng Hou looked carefully at Qi Shuyuan's expression, and continued to ask.

"Well, I've heard the legend about it, but I haven't seen it, why did the prince suddenly mention it?" Qi Shuyuan was once again led into another trap by Leng Hou.

"Since you have heard of it, I believe you must know its attributes and preciousness, and the only one left in this world," Leng Hou suddenly became sad, his melancholy eyes made people want to cry, "it is on my second brother's body." .”

"This..." Qi Shuyuan was shocked again, his eyes sparkled, and he didn't know what to say.

Leng Hou got the answer he wanted from Qi Shuyuan's changing eyes, and continued to pretend to be sad: "Oh, let's not mention this matter. I first wish the son a triumphant return, and Leng Hou is here to wait for the good news."

"Borrow the prince's auspicious words." Qi Shuyuan knew that Leng Hou must have noticed something, but he was not sure, so he had to leave first.

After Qi Shuyuan left, Leng Hou walked out of the meeting hall and said to Leng Ran: "Third brother, according to my arrangement, pass on the order and leave today. In addition, divide the 50 people into three groups and send them to the north, east and south respectively. , so as to help our army win the battle."

"Yes." Leng Ran took the order and quickly went down to convey it.

Leng Hou looked up at the sky, the blue sky was cloudless, the dazzling sun was shining freely, and the warmth was harmonious.

......

After Qi Shuyuan came back from the palace, he prepared to leave for Chejiang tomorrow. This time, besides Qi Shuhan, Ren Yi, Xing Zhi and Mu Feng, he also brought two entourages from the general's mansion. After all, this time he was pretending to be a businessman. , a few of them are too eye-catching, and a few followers can be more similar.Their martial arts foundation is not bad, so they don't need to be protected.Thinking that Lu Moya would be a hindrance, he specially asked Wu Yin to accompany him. Wu Yin is good at sneak attacks and assassinations, and it is perfect for use as a blade, very suitable for cutting throats with a knife.

Qi Shuyuan's purpose of going forward this time is to go to the Su family to find some things.The Su family was originally a general, and Su Xiang was the veteran of the three dynasties of the Yun Kingdom. Now even if the Yun Kingdom is destroyed, the Su family is still a famous family in Chejiang City, controlling the economic lifeline of the Chejiang area. Lu Moya will not directly obstruct it. If he does it, he will be the one who suffers.But Lu Moya wouldn't let them get what they wanted, so he could only obstruct Qi Shuyuan secretly, thinking that it was best for him to act first and not make any mistakes this time.And maybe meeting her this time, it made Qi Shuyuan feel a little better.Let's hope it goes better this time.

"We've arrived at the old place of Yunguo. After driving for two days, let's find an inn to rest." Qi Shuyuan said lightly.

"My lord, shouldn't we have arrived at Su's house earlier? Otherwise, if Lu Moya does something secretly, we may be at a disadvantage." Ren Yi said.Qi Shuyuan is no longer the lord of the country, there is no Yang Emperor Qi Shuyuan in this world, only the son Shuyuan, but the old ministers are still retainers, masters and servants.

"Lu Moya won't do it at this time. He should do it after we reach Chejiang. We shouldn't be too tired at this time, or it will be difficult when we come back. Besides, we can slow down and pay attention to our surroundings. If It is best to have a chance to discover them. In that case, Wuyin Girl did not come in vain." Qi Shuyuan turned his head and smiled at Wuyin and the others, like a spring breeze.

Wuyin suddenly understood why Qi Shuyuan asked the prince to accompany him, his resourcefulness was not inferior to Lengzhuo and Lenghou, but the king once said: "Emperor Yang is not suitable to be a king, he is not as cold and ruthless as a king. I really hope it can be used by me in the future." Now I understand why the king made a deal with Qi Shuyuan for the people of Yunguo to live in peace, and a person like Qi Shuyuan will definitely become the king's guest of honor for his subjects and relatives. Take no precautions.

"Wu Yindan follows the orders of the young master."

"I don't have anything to tell you, just follow along. Take it easy, just take it for fun. Take a look at the scenery of the Chejiang River, and look at your nervous expressions, which are easy to reveal." Qi Shuyuan said softly.

It was already the second day when Qi Shuyuan and his party arrived in Chejiang City, they did not take a break, and hurried to the Su family's house in the north of the city.

Qi Shuyuan said to the door boy: "Your Excellency Shu Yuan..." Before he finished speaking, the door boy stepped forward and said: "Young Master, my lady has been waiting for a long time." Qi Shuyuan and others were very surprised , They came all the way without notifying the Su family in advance.Besides, even if it was waiting, it should be Su Zhao, how could it be his youngest daughter?

Xing Zhi is a veteran with a strong personality and has a good relationship with Su Zhao. He followed everyone into the door and said to the doorman: "Why doesn't the old man of the Su family come to pick up my old bone? Haha!"

As soon as she was led into the main hall by the doorman, she saw a suit of green clothes rushing into the main hall, with a pretty face and serious eyes.He said to those who hadn't had tea yet: "My father got the news three days ago that Yasukuni has stationed [-] troops [-] miles away from Qingling Pass."

"What?" Everyone panicked except Qi Shuyuan, "I didn't expect them to come so soon."

"Enxi, what did your father say?" Qi Shuyuan said to Su Enxi gently.He knew Lu Moya's style of conduct, since he planned to divide the world into two, he would definitely deploy troops in advance.If it were not for the crisis, he would not come back.It has been three years, and the person in front of him has been away from him for three years. He is a little thankful for Lu Moya's ambition. She is no longer a 17-year-old girl. She has become much calmer, but her pair of The agile eyes remained unchanged.If it wasn't such an urgent time, he would definitely hug her and tell her how much he missed her and how much he couldn't let her go.

"My father said to wait for you at the Shenbing Villa. Eighty thousand guards will be guarded in Mingye, and the headquarters of the Imperial Forest Army will be twenty thousand. Our chances of winning are very high."

"Then let's set off immediately, Miss Su to pack up." Mu Feng was the first to react, and the rest were still in shock.They never thought that the elite of the Mingye Army really existed.

"It's ready." Su Enxi smiled lightly.

While talking, a snow harrier landed by the window, calling "lulu".

Su Enxi took down the note from the snow harrier's ankle ring, her face turned pale immediately, she looked at Qi Shuyuan and said, "The Jing army has [-] troops stationed [-] miles away from Moning Pass on the east side."

In an instant, the room was dead silent, Qi Shuyuan said: "Meet Su first."

......

The royal palace of the imperial capital of Ye Kingdom.

"Brother, Jingguo stationed [-] troops at Qingling Pass and [-] at Moning Pass respectively. How much military supplies do we need to prepare to support our army?" Leng Ran suddenly reported to Leng Hou who was drinking tea.

Now the old generals of Ye Kingdom admire Leng Hou very much, and Leng Hou's analysis and budget are extremely accurate.Yasukuni added 10 troops to fight against "Beiling", and sent another 15 troops to surround the east and north of the former site of Yunguo.

"15." Leng Hou said casually.

"Is there some..." Mu Guogong asked.

"The Jing army is 15. Although our army does not have that many people, we must at least have enough military supplies." Leng Hou took another sip of tea, "The [-] central army has left first, Xue Ye and Moxuan, you two are escorting the military supplies. Go to support, set off today, there must be no mistakes."

"Yes."

"Xing Luo, you lead people to send the other 15 military supplies to 'Beiling' and stand by there."

"As ordered."

"Third brother, you lead 5 people to intercept Bai Feng. Remember not to be reckless. If you lose, follow the plan."

"it is good."

Leng Hou's order was spread out one after another, and everyone prepared carefully.

War is imminent.
