Almost at the same time that Yan Huisheng received the message from Feiying, Zhou Che, who was on his way to northern Hebei, was also found by Feiying.
The flying eagle circled twice from the clouds, swooped down, and landed directly in front of Zhou Che's horse.
A small soldier saw it and immediately shouted, "General, be careful."
Zhou Che didn't notice the danger, but still took out the sword from his waist as a precaution.
The flying eagle seemed to be aware of the danger from him, and took a few steps back, tilting its head and looking at him, as if to identify whether this person was the person it was looking for.
When a flying eagle is trained to deliver messages, it naturally needs to train its keen sense of smell, hearing, vision, etc. to send messages across thousands of miles. It also needs to draw topographic map landmarks so that it can remember them after repeated viewing, so that the target can be accurately delivered to people.
The most important thing is to have the person's belongings so that he can track and identify them by smell.
In short, among the tens of millions of flying eagles, there are very few who can be trained to be spiritual and understand human nature.
Someone with sharp eyes immediately said: "General, there is something tied to its leg that seems to be... a letter?"
Zhou Che retracted his saber, turned over and dismounted, and reached out to Fei Ying.
The flying eagle sniffed his breath and seemed to confirm that this person was the person it was looking for. It took two steps forward and allowed Zhou Che to pick it up.
A soldier came over curiously, "Huh? Is this eagle really a trusting eagle?"
"Can you still use an eagle to send messages? This is amazing."
Someone asked: "General, are we here to see you?"
Zhou Che didn't know either. He untied the letter from Feiying's leg and opened it. He saw that it was Zhou Gu's handwriting. He immediately smiled and said, "It's my fourth brother."
"Ah? Is this eagle originally raised by the Fourth Young Master?" Someone was surprised, "It can actually find you accurately."
"It's not him, he doesn't know how to raise eagles." Zhou Che was also puzzled. As he spoke, he looked down. Gradually, his relaxed expression turned into seriousness. When he saw the end, he was suddenly shocked and anxious, and immediately said: "Turn around."
Let’s go to Nanping.”
The lieutenant general and his soldiers were suddenly stunned.
Someone asked: "General, what's wrong?"
"Northern Hebei may launch troops to attack Nanping. Zhang Ping wants to rebel, and we have to rush to rescue him." Zhou Che received the letter and immediately took out the note from his arms, brushed a few strokes with charcoal, and wrote back saying he would be here soon.
Then he tied the letter to the flying eagle.
He tied up the letter, and in order to reward the eagle for its hard work in finding him to deliver the letter, he immediately ordered: "Give it some meat."
A soldier immediately went to the food camp and brought a large piece of meat.
The flying eagle looked at it with satisfaction, took the meat in his mouth slowly, then rushed up with the letter and flew into the clouds.
Zhou Che immediately took a hundred thousand troops and headed for Nanping.
After Ningchi finished handling the important affairs of the Eighteen Villages at the Nanping Marquis Mansion, he returned to the mansion and discussed with his father, Nanping Marquis, to deploy troops to defend Nanping City.
Marquis Nanping was a little frightened and said to him: "Isn't it true? Now is not a good time. Is Zhang Ping going to rebel now?"
"Perhaps now is a good time for Zhang Ping." Ning Chi had a different view, "The Nangong family approached General Pingxi's Mansion for cooperation, and spent half of their family wealth on General Pingxi's Mansion to ask him to cooperate in killing Miss Su Qi. The Nangong family
Half of the family wealth is not a small amount, it is enough for Zhang Ping to raise an army."
Marquis Nanping took a breath, "But there are only 30,000 soldiers and horses in our city."
"Let's set up our defenses first, just in case. Miss Su Qi has sent a letter to His Highness the Crown Prince to mobilize troops." Ning Chi also hoped that Zhou Gu had made a wrong judgment, but he felt that this hope was slim and Zhou Gu would not easily
He made a mistake, just like he concluded that Zhang Mao was in the Eighteenth Village.
Marquis Nanping nodded, "Then hurry up!"
With the cooperation of Marquis Nanping, Ningchi quickly rearranged his troops.
Before the preparations were completed, he received a message from someone sent by Zhou Gu, saying that a large number of troops from northern Hebei were marching to Nanping, probably no less than 200,000, and asked him to quickly prepare for the battle.
Ning Chi's face changed. Although he was prepared, there were no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses, which was more than six times the current strength of the Marquis of Nanping. How could Nanping survive?
Fortunately, Zhou Gu said in the letter that he had received Zhou Che's reply and was coming to Nanping with a hundred thousand troops. He only needed to hold on for a few days.
Ning Chi showed Zhou Gu's letter to Marquis Nanping, and Marquis Nanping's expression changed, "I have always known that General Pingxi's Mansion keeps private troops, but I never expected that the amount would be so huge. He could send 200,000 troops at a time to attack Nanping. So,
At least there are 200,000 troops left in northern Hebei."
Originally, the Pingxi General's Mansion in northern Hebei Province had a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, but now it has four times more troops. I wonder what your majesty would think if he knew that Zhang Ping had rebelled.
After all, Zhang Ping's appetite and Zhang Ping's private raising of troops and horses were fattened up by His Majesty.
The father and son had already made preparations, but once this number of soldiers and horses arrived, the pressure increased in vain. Ning Chi asked Jiang Zhu to be invited to the study and showed Zhou Gu's letters to Jiang Zhu.
After reading the letter, Jiang Zhu's face changed and he said to himself, "If I tell Zhou Gu that I regret it now and want to go back to Shiba Village to live alone, I wonder if he will agree?"
There are no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses. There are only 30,000 Nanping troops in this city. Aren't they looking for death? If we attack hard, we won't be able to withstand it in one day, let alone how many days.
Ning Chi looked at him. He couldn't laugh at this time, so he could only say to him: "You have boarded the pirate ship and can't get off. Brother Jiang, you better hurry up and think of a way with me to let your brothers,
Those who want to seek refuge with the prince should take advantage of this opportunity and make a contribution as soon as possible!"
Jiang Zhu was about to cry, "Tell me, 30,000 soldiers and horses versus no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses, how can we achieve meritorious service?"
"There are thousands of your brothers in the Eighteenth Village, and they are all good at killing two." Ning Chi patted his shoulder heavily, "This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Think about those of you who don't want to leave Daliang and follow you."
Brothers who went to Nanchu, now the court is recruiting people who have not made any meritorious service, so what kind of jobs are they given to them? If they make meritorious service in this battle, they will follow to defend Nanping City. When the time comes, they will be rewarded based on their merits. What kind of official position will it be? If some people catch it
Opportunities are not guaranteed even in one step. And Brother Jiang, if you want to seek refuge with Miss Su Qi, you have to show your ability. Just making introductions is not enough to make Miss Su Qi take you seriously. You have to impress him.
, at that time, she will go to Nanchu and proclaim herself the king and ascend the throne, so that you can be respected by her and develop your career."
Jiang Zhu sighed, "Brother Ning, you should really travel around the world to be a lobbyist. This place in Nanping is a waste of your talent."
Ning Chi coughed and said, "What about Brother Jiang? Quickly call on the brothers to defend the city with me?"
Jiang Zhu was helpless, "That's all we can do."
As he said, we have all boarded this boat and cannot get off.
"Oh, and there is my younger brother." Ning Chi suddenly thought of Ning Ze and immediately ordered, "Go and call the second young master."
He is now Su Rong's man. At such a critical moment, he cannot be allowed to stand back and let others use him to his best advantage.
