Tang Binbin slowly raised his right hand and waved it in front of Ruan Yunjia's eyes: "It would be unworthy of a gentleman not to avenge this!"
His hand was comminuted and fractured after Mu Tianbo hit it with a meteor hammer. Even though it was bandaged, it was still considered useless. Ruan Yunjia's face was overjoyed when he saw this: "The Lord wants to join forces with Wu Bikui to give Mu Tianbo a blow."
Secretly trying to catch Chen Cang off guard?"
Tang Binbin shook his head with a wry smile: "You still don't understand the current situation!"
"I would like to hear the details," Ruan Yunjia said respectfully.
"Right now, there are four forces inside and outside Yunnan. Our family, Wu Bikui, Prince Mu's Mansion, and Zhang Xianzhong who is on the border! The reason why Prince Mu's Mansion did not attack Wu Bikui is because they are worried that if we take the opportunity to build momentum or join forces with them, Yunnan will be in chaos.
Zhang Xianzhong has an opportunity! In the same way, he went to attack us, but he was worried about Wu Bikui. This is called looking at one thing at the expense of the other, so he asked us to attack Wu Bikui! In this way, he can use all his troops to defend against Zhang Xianzhong!"
"This... my subordinates know." Ruan Yunjia heard Lonely: "Mu Tianbo was worried that Zhang Xianzhong would come in, so he asked us to beat Wu Bikui!"
"But what if we really go to fight?" Tang Jianjian sneered: "Pu Mingxing said it a few years ago, the rabbit will die and the dog will be cooked! Once Wu Bikui is killed by us, even if Mu Tianbo doesn't deal with us immediately, he will
The autumn harvest is settling accounts, not to mention that once Wu Bikui is killed, he will not worry about Zhang Xianzhong, and Bao Buqi will immediately attack us!"
"But if we don't fight, then the lives of the Lord and Master..." Ruan Yunjia frowned.
Tang Binbin hummed, stared at Ruan Yunjia and said: "Madam's side..."
"The eldest lady said that the Lord is her husband, and both Amizhou and Mengzi respect him. She is willing to give up everything to live for the Lord!" Ruan Yunjia said quickly. Tang Binjia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he
He was also worried about telling Ruan Yunjia that the conditions for their survival were that in addition to defeating Wu Bikui, they also had to trap and kill the Wan family! Moreover, Sha Dingzhou was also mentally prepared, in case the point of no return was reached, the Wan family would really have to be sacrificed.
's life.
"If that's the case, then go back and tell the eldest lady to send troops to attack Wu Bikui immediately!"
Ah, Ruan Yunjia was shocked: "Master, didn't you just say that once I was eliminated..."
"I asked you to attack him. When did I tell you to pacify him?" Tang Jianjia smiled evilly. Ruan Yunjia was startled and immediately realized. He sent troops to attack openly and secretly with Wu Bikuitong and put on a show to fool Mu Tianbo.
The time has come to take action!
It’s just that this so-called timing is...
Zhang Xianzhong!
Tang Jingbin looked cautious: "Now that things have come to this, we have to fight a big fight, but the drama with Wu Bikui can be hidden for a while, but not forever! You immediately send people to Sichuan to contact Zhang Xianzhong and ask him to send troops to Yunnan. We are willing to
As an internal support, after taking Yunnan, we can just make the lord the Duke of Guizhou!" He said with a cold snort: "If the Ming Dynasty doesn't give it, we will be the Western Dynasty!"
Come on! Ruan Yunjia couldn't help but clapped her hands: "Even if Zhang Xianzhong can't defeat Mu Tianbo, as long as he sends troops, he will muddy the water. Yunnan will be in chaos, but it is also our opportunity!"
The more they talked, the more they felt that something was going on. Unknowingly, they had been chatting for more than an hour. No one in the city came out to urge them, but Mu Tianbo and Chang Yu on the top of the city were holding telescopes and watching with great interest.
Although I don't know what they were talking about.
In fact, I don’t care what they are talking about. If you cross the wall and ladder, I have a good plan. No matter how much the monkey jumps, it will still jump in the palm of the Buddha’s hand.
But what was a little surprising was that Ruan Yunjia then asked to see Mu Tianbo.
Although he was a little surprised, Mu Tianbo agreed. Ruan Yunjia rode alone outside the city gate to meet him. He knew that Mu Tianbo would not kill him, at least not now.
Looking at the young Duke, Ruan Yunjia had mixed feelings in his heart. The person he once looked up to, but later wanted to torture him to death to avenge his adoptive father, and then ran away to Shadingzhou, but now looking at him in front of him
Mu Tianbo looked indifferent, but there was no hatred in his heart. He couldn't hate anymore, but he had another thought, to bring him down! It wasn't for anyone, he just wanted to bring him down!
Mu Tianbo always had a calm expression on his face, even when he looked at Ruan Yunjia, his eyes were calm, neither happy nor angry, and even said something that surprised Ruan Yunjia and almost made him feel soft: "You can go back to Prince Mu's Mansion at any time and kill your adoptive father and me by mistake.
So ashamed!"
I can't go back, I can't go back, everything can never go back! Although Ruan Yunjia's heart softened, she also knew that nothing could go back to the past, just like the adoptive father who regarded him as his own would not live.
Just like he came over, even if he returns to Prince Mu's Mansion, everything and people's hearts will have changed. Moreover, he has determined that as long as he goes back, he will die at the hands of Mu Tianbo. He may not kill him now, but he will definitely die in the future. The reason is very simple.
, he surrendered to the enemy and plotted against Prince Mu's Mansion, nearly destroying this family that had built a foundation for hundreds of years!
Mu Tianbo can't possibly forgive him!
"Everywhere I work, I work for the Duke of the country. I have no face to return to Prince Mu's Mansion!" Ruan Yunjia dismounted and said respectfully. Mu Tianbo exclaimed: "But it's settled?"
"Wan Shi has already told me when I came here that I would give Sha Dingzhou a chance to survive at all costs, and I am willing to be driven by the Duke to ride on the front and back of the horse for you!" Ruan Yunjia said quickly, and Mu Tianbo snorted: "This is such a personal matter.
Leave it to someone trustworthy to do it, she, hehe, doesn’t dare to take the trouble." Then the topic changed: "I think Mr. Tang has made it clear to you, I will pacify Wu Bikui, remove him from the post of chieftain, and pay five silver dollars.
One hundred thousand taels, and this matter is over!"
"I have already said that I will tell the Wan family that troops will be sent out to suppress my Bikui in the near future..." Before Ruan Yunjia could finish his words, Mu Tianbo interrupted him: "The military situation is urgent, don't complain, just give it.
You have half a month to pacify Wu Bikui, and don’t wait until it’s too late. Don’t blame my prince for turning his back on you!"
Ruan Yunjia was startled and frowned: "I'm afraid the half-month period is too hasty. After the Wan clan's first defeat, they have to reorganize their troops and prepare food and grass, and Mengzi and Yuanmou are hundreds of miles apart..."
Mu Tianbo interrupted him with a cold snort: "It only took me one month from the time Wu Bikui rebelled to the time he was defeated. During this period, it included mobilizing troops and horses, preparing food and fodder, and attacking the city to regain the lost territory. Right now, my bandit is barely surviving, and you are just waiting for me.
If you need to send troops to attack, ten days is enough, not to mention five days more than you and others. Don't make excuses to delay. If it's delayed, then the Duke of our country will personally send troops to quell it, and you and others will be pacified too!"
After saying that, he turned the horse's head and went directly back to the city, leaving Ruan Yunjia alone shivering in the wilderness!
I had a great chat with Mr. Tang just now and was going through various plans, but I didn’t expect that Mu Tianbo only gave him half a month!
That means that their play can only last for half a month at most!
The premise is that Wu Bikui agrees to sing this song with them!
Of course Wu Bikui will be willing. He is so embarrassed now that he can only wish for it!
However, this half month has been too hasty, and the people sent there probably won’t be able to see Zhang Xianzhong in Chengdu.
This matter needs to be discussed again!
I was just thinking that I might not have a chance to discuss with Mr. Tang, so I should hurry back to discuss with Mr. Wan!
Ruan Yunjia didn't need to go back to Ami Prefecture to discuss with the Wan family at all, because the Wan family was in the village less than twenty miles away from Kunming at this time. Yes, to everyone's surprise, she came here with Ruan Yunjia in disguise,
This matter is extremely secretive, and even the subordinates in Amizhou don't know about it, let alone the people in this village. That's why Ruan Yunjia was cautious along the way, and even took a detour to avoid Lu Yongming's territory.
As for whether Mu Tianbo knows, Ruan Yunjia is 100% sure that he doesn't know, because even among the hundreds of riders who came with him this time, only a few people know about it. No matter how powerful Mu Tianbo is, it is impossible for him to detect such secrets.
.
"My brother-in-law is really smart, he actually thought of such a way to get the best of both worlds!" In the village, Wan took out a needle and picked out the light cord, with a faint smile on his face: "That kid Mu Tianbo is very sinister.
, has created a problem for us, listen to his words and fight. Once Wu Bikui dies, we are not far away from death. Don’t fight. Sha Dingzhou is dead, and our people will also be ravaged by its war. However,
But we have to choose, but now this is great, not only can we survive the crisis, but we can also counterattack with an army. As long as there is chaos in Yunnan, we will have a chance!"
"But madam, Mu Tianbo only gave us half a month. Let's not talk about whether we can really defeat Wu Bikui in half a month. Even if our people can't reach Chengdu, if Mu Tianbo really turns his face by then...
..." Ruan Yunjia is very worried about this.
Wanshi looked indifferent: "Some words are easy to say, but it is difficult to actually do them. Even if we haven't defeated Wu Bikui after half a month, are you really going to fall out immediately as a child of the Mu family? Falling out is
There will be a heavy price to pay, he knows very well in his heart that this is just a threat, and although we may not be able to contact Zhang Xianzhong in half a month, it is even less likely that he will send troops over so quickly, but these are not important, as long as there is
It is enough that the news comes that he is going to send troops to Yunnan!"
Ruan Yunjia suddenly realized that yes, regardless of whether Zhang Xianzhong came or not, as long as there was news that he was coming, Mu Tianbo would panic and have no time to go anywhere else, let alone a fire in the backyard. This was their chance to survive and cause trouble!
"Does Madam mean that we should send troops immediately?"
Wan Shi nodded slightly: "It's enough to put on a show. Since we agreed to the Mu family's son, we must see our sincerity. We will send people back to Mengzi tonight to inform Wang Shuo to mobilize troops, and then send people to Sichuan to contact Zhang Xianzhong. In addition,
You should go to Yuanmou in person immediately and have a good chat with Wu Bikui."
Ruan Yunjia agreed and immediately started to separate.
On the other side, in Kunming City, Mu Tianbo, Chang Yu, Wu Zhaoyuan and others gathered together to drink tea and discuss matters.
"I Bikui is willing to pay a reward of 500,000 silver and 20,000 shi of grain. The grain and grass will be sent to Huichuanwei within three days, and the silver will be transported back to Kunming for confiscation..." Mu Tianbo said lightly, and Wu Zhaoyuan and others showed a hint of concern on their faces.
With a smile on his face, it seemed that the battle was worth fighting.
"Confiscation...who is the public!" Chang Yu exclaimed, Mu Tianbo and others were startled, and then they realized that the little eunuch had come all the way here, and it was free of money to send troops and shed blood and sweat!
Wu Zhaoyuan looked at Mu Tianbo and the others next to him, and coughed lightly: "Since the imperial court is a public servant, these compensations will be used as the cost of rebuilding the city and the pensions of the soldiers. Of course, Lord Ruo Du..."
"Of course not." Chang Yu picked up the teacup: "I am a straight-forward person, and I speak my mind directly. The Dongchang Guards spent a month traveling thousands of miles to attack and rescue, and they did it all at their own expense without taking a single cent from the court.
Is it expensive to receive fifty thousand taels of silver this time?"
"It's not expensive, it's not expensive!" Mu Tianbo and the others immediately shook their heads. They really felt that the money should be given, and it was indeed not expensive. After all, if they hadn't arrived in time at the critical moment, the consequences would have been disastrous, so Mu Tianbo still patted his chest.
Expressed its position, in addition, Prince Mu's Mansion is willing to donate 100,000 yuan to the Dongchang Guards.
Wu Zhaoyuan and others still feel that they should give it. Such a small amount of money is nothing if the Mu Palace is so rich, but if the Dongchang guards hadn't arrived in time, hehe...
Chang Yu cupped his hands and said, "We have thanked the Duke for his kindness on behalf of the brother of Dongchang Wei." Then he said lightly: "I will charge fifty thousand from Kui, and one hundred thousand from Sha Dingzhou is not expensive, right?"
". These words were a bit abrupt, which made Mu Tianbo and others startled. It turned out that they had to collect the money in two parts. Logically speaking, the eunuch didn't put any effort into beating Wu Bikui and he shouldn't collect the money. But...
After all, people are now making plans. As for Sha Dingzhou, they have indeed put in a lot of effort.
"Is one hundred thousand expensive?" Chang Yu picked up the tea cup and swept away everyone with a smile.
It’s not expensive! Everyone said almost in unison.
After all, this money should be given. After all, they don't need to pay for it. When Sha Dingzhou's home was later raided, it would definitely cost more than this small amount of 100,000.
