Because of the distance and the delay in information transmission, Shen Tang was sharpening his sword and preparing to attack Qiu Cheng. Wu Xian and others received the news that Qiu Cheng's soldiers and horses had sneaked into Nanyu County. In the Dragon Slaying Bureau, which lasted for nearly two years, although the Allies were not as good as It was expected that the dragon slaying would be successful, but it would also greatly improve the combat experience of the troops under the tent. Recently, it has entered a stalemate stage, and all forces are stepping up their efforts to cultivate.
Wu Xian rarely has time to spare.
Just as I was enjoying a sip of hot tea to warm my stomach, my eyes widened in shock at the information coming from the tent. I almost choked my trachea with a sip of tea.
"What did you say?"
Wu Xian put down the tea cup with a clang.
He quickly asked: "Who provoked whom?"
The messenger had no choice but to repeat the information again.
Only then did Wu Xian become convinced that he had not heard any hallucinations.
There are many expressions on his face, some are stunned, some are surprised, some are in disbelief, and some are just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
Asked again: "Then Qiu Fumiyan succeeded?"
The messenger nodded.
Wu Xian: "Do you know how much Qiu Wenyan gained from this trip?"
How did the courier know such detailed data? These were reported by the spies stationed there. The spies were also worried that their identities would be exposed and did not dare to make their actions public, so they only knew roughly: "...I heard that more than a hundred baggage trucks transported seven or eight trip."
Wu Xian was moved after hearing this data.
His friend, Tang Di, knew how to farm grain.
There are not many people or things in this world that Wu Xian can admire. Among them, Shen Tang's ability to manage people's affairs, he truly admires. From the Heyin County back then, it can be seen that Shen Tang has a close understanding of "growing food to eat" Demonic persistence. He has been farming quietly in Longwu County for the past two years. It is not unusual to have such a result, but he does not want to provoke the covetousness of his evil neighbors. Thinking of this, Wu Xian laughed.
By coincidence, Qin Li came at this time.
"What makes my lord so happy?"
Wu Xian: "Qiu Wenyan robbed Shen Youli of his food."
After some detailed explanation, Qin Li found out what happened.
He shook his head: "According to Mr. Shen's past behavior, he doesn't seem to be a master who can swallow this bad breath. This Qiu Wenyan is in trouble."
Wu Xian's smile dyed his eyebrows.
"That's why I laugh. It's fun to see."
Who doesn’t love free jokes?
Wu Xian paused for a moment, stroking his neatly trimmed beard and said: "It's okay, let Qiu Wenyan, a stupid young man with high ambitions and low hands, take the lead and see how much improvement Brother Shen has made in the past two years. I haven't seen him for many years, and I don't know Brother Shen's martial arts. How much taller it is."
He spoke words of warmth and concern.
His eyes were full of calculation and shrewdness.
Qin Li agreed with Wu Xian's words. In the past two years, Shen Tang has gradually managed Longwu County like an iron barrel. The spies planted outside were removed soon. Wu Xian could only know some general trends, but not Know the true background.
The sense of security is far better than having it right under your nose.
Qin Li reminded his lord to beware of Qiu Wenyan.
Wu Xian was confused: "Why should we be wary of him?"
Qin Li said: "Prevent him from using your strength to fight."
As an ally of the Dragon Slaying Bureau, he can shamelessly display the Allied flag - attacking Nanyu County to obtain food is to enhance the strength of the Allied Forces and to better resist the tyrant Zheng Qiao. When Shen Tang counterattacks, he can use his status as an ally to show his integrity. people.
Wu Xian was speechless: "Can't you? Are you so thick-skinned?"
"If he were thin-skinned, Qiu Wenyan would not be able to betray the eldest brother of the Qiu family." Qin Li shook his head at this. It is not a secret how Qiu Cheng got rich. "Furthermore, when the Dragon Slaying Bureau swore an oath, all the forces We agreed to help each other and benefit each other and would not use troops against our allies, but Shen Jun was not among them." Even though Shen Tang sent a batch of food to express his feelings, he was still outside the alliance.
Qin Li reminded Wu Xian again and again.
"My lord, please don't go into this muddy water."
It's not that we're afraid, but we can't let things go wrong. Shen Tang may be our target one day, but it's definitely not today.
Another reason is that the love between Shen Tang and Wu Xian has lasted for a long time and has become synonymous with brotherly love. As the elder brother, if Wu Xian mobilized troops to help Qiu Wenyan defeat Shen Tang, his reputation would not be restored. In this regard, Wu Xian obeyed.
"I still have a sense of propriety, Gongsu, don't worry."
A similar situation unfolded on Gu Renzhanghe's side.
They all agreed that Shen Tang would not suffer the loss of being dumb. It was a certainty to counterattack Qiu Cheng, and they took the time to think of a reason - if Qiu Cheng screamed after being beaten by Shen Tang and came to find them to bring in reinforcements, they would have a reason to refuse. .
But there are more than just the three of them in the Dragon Slaying Bureau.
There are also many people who are willing to borrow troops to get a share of the pie.
Shen Tang could not pay attention to these strange undercurrents for the time being.
She was worried about how many people she would recruit to fight Qiu Cheng, so she made a special trip to Yonggu Pass to discuss with Chu Jie.
"Mr. Shen is worried that there are not enough generals?"
What's the point? He has more here.
Chu Jie has lived a comfortable life in the past two years. He no longer has to worry about military pay and supplies. Even the military affairs are taken care of by others. He, the hands-off shopkeeper, feels at ease. Training soldiers and martial arts is very comfortable. The eyes he looks at Shen Tang are as gentle as looking at a golden doll.
He is also a big benefactor with a lot of money but little trouble!
Shen Tang shook his head: "It's not because of this."
At present, she has 25,000 soldiers and horses under her account, and 20,000 regular troops stationed in Yongguguan. The total of the two is 45,000. The number seems to be a lot, but there are not many that can be used. Chu Jie heard that he pinched his fingers and forgot He calculated and said: "This is true, at most ten thousand..."
The 20,000 garrison cannot move.
Longwu County still needs to leave more than half of its troops to look after the country.
If you hit the target, you can bring in 10,000 people. If you exceed this number, your hometown's ability to withstand risks will be halved, and there is a risk of someone picking peaches and stealing your home. Isn't it funny if the frontline is still fighting, and my hometown changes other people's surnames? No wonder she looks sad. color.
Who would have thought that Shen Tang's words would be astonishing.
"I want to take out 20,000 yuan."
Without Moji, I took the opportunity to swallow up Sibao County in one breath!
Chu Jie took a deep breath.
I don’t know whether Shen Tang has too much appetite or too much courage. How many soldiers and horses can she use? After pulling out 20,000 people, only 5,000 will be left to look after the house? He couldn’t help but wink at Chu Yao and let him Take care of his young lord and have a clear mind.
Unexpectedly, Chu Yao ignored him from beginning to end.
Chu Jie could only touch his nose in embarrassment and asked Shen Tang seriously: "There are 20,000 troops in the battle, so the extra 10,000..."
Shen Tang smiled shyly.
"This is why I came to see General Chu."
Chu Jie: "???"
Shen Tang whispered: "I'll lend you ten thousand."
Chu Jie pointed to the place where he was sitting.
"Shen Jun, this is Yonggu Pass..."
Remind Shen Tang that the troops she is deploying are border guards.
In order to fuck Aki Fumihiko, do you have to prepare your buttocks naked?
Shen Tang hurriedly broke off his fingers and smiled: "I know it's a bit cruel to mobilize the border garrison, but General Chu, think about it, who is the border garrison guarding? Of course it's the ambitious Shiwu. But Shiwu has been in recent years. They have been stirred up by us into a chaotic atmosphere, the civil war continues, and their own ancestors’ bad debts can’t be settled, so where can they find the extra troops to invade Yonggu Pass?”
Chu Jie looked at Chu Yao with faint eyes.
Shen Tang tilted his upper body in the direction of Chu Yao, so that Chu Jie could only look at himself, and his smile was brighter than the flowers: "General Chu, the garrison has not been able to fight a decent battle in the past two years, and there have been few horse bandits recently. If you continue to leave it like this, the weapons will rust, let alone the elite soldiers. You still have to see blood every now and then to stay sharp, isn't this the truth?"
Chu Jie broke away from Shen Tang's hand.
I succeeded only when my knuckles turned white and red.
After holding it in for a long while, he said something.
"Here's nonsense..."
But on second thought, it’s not impossible.
In the past two years, Longwu County has recovered extremely well, and its population has grown steadily, showing signs of peace and prosperity for the people.
Shen Tang also attaches great importance to border defense and always deploys excess national resources to strengthen the barrier. The border barrier becomes more solid day by day. Even if Shi Wu wants to invade, the light barrier will be enough to stop them for a while. Deploying 10,000 troops and horses will indeed not shake the foundation. …
Shen Tang knows very well that money can make people go around.
She bluntly said that after taking Sibao County this time, she would be rewarded based on merit. She would definitely increase the Yonggu Pass military budget for the next year and would never let the soldiers bleed and shed tears. Chu Jie's already shaken heart was completely deflected. He only cared about one thing. Son: "By how much?"
"Forehead……"
Shen Tang was about to say "50%, one year".
Chu Yao, who had always been quiet, made the final decision.
"Thirty percent, one year."
Shen Tang whispered: "Wuhui, is this too little?"
Chu Yao: "If you have too much, it will overwhelm him to death."
Chu Jie almost lost his breath.
Loudly: "Wuhui, when did you become so frugal?"
High emotional intelligence: frugality.
Low EQ: Stingy.
Chu Yao was too lazy to raise his eyelids.
"You think I gave you too much?"
Chu Jie: "..."
When we arrived, there were only two of us, Shen Tang.
When leaving, there were ten thousand troops and horses.
Shen Tang rode a motorcycle and rode side by side with Chu Yao. He laughed so hard that his molars popped out: "It's a pity that General Chu is the main guard and refuses to go out. Otherwise, Qiu Wenyan will definitely be given a big surprise! Fighting generals in front of the formation , his head was blown off!"
"Chromatography hinders silk?"
"surprise!"
Chu Yao said with a smile: "Most of them are frightened."
Indeed, Wuyangyang's 20,000 troops were more than double Qiu Cheng's expectations. Wouldn't they be frightened?
