"Trap? They ambushed us in the valley? The terrain in the valley is not suitable for an ambush. And they only have a thousand soldiers and horses, how can they ambush us? Bao Meng, are you worried too much? You are afraid of Fang, but we can
Don't be afraid." Zhan Junshan, the leader of the second village, said.
"Second Village Master, this is not a question of whether you are afraid or not. It's just that you don't know Lin Jue's methods. When they attacked Shirenshan Dazhai, Fang Lin and Gao Muqing only brought more than a hundred men. What was the result? Zuo Zongdao's men came up
We have thousands of people, haven't we had our hearts ripped out by him? This person cannot be treated with common sense. For the great cause of the leader of the village, we cannot take it lightly." Bao Meng said in a deep voice.
"Tch. I think you were scared out of your wits by that man named Fang. Bao Meng, you are also the number one person in Funiu Mountain, but now you have become as cowardly as a turtle grandson. It's a pity, it's a pity.
"Zhan Junshan smacked his lips and shook his head.
"Hahaha, isn't it? Master Bao is so cowardly now." A group of people ridiculed and laughed.
Bao Meng's face turned red and angry, but he didn't know how to tell the difference. His popularity among Qin Donghe's tent was not good because he had been very close to Luoyan Valley Dazhai, so this made it difficult for him to be favored by Qin Donghe.
Dong He completely accepted and approved of it. Others saw this and didn't like him either.
"Shut up, everyone. I think Brother Bao's words are very reasonable. Be careful in sailing the ten thousand year ship. If we fall into his trap, wouldn't it ruin the good situation? Entering Luoyan Valley to fight them, I always feel
There seems to be some conspiracy. But I can't tell what conspiracy it is, but I always believe in my hunch. Just now I had some doubts, so I asked brothers for their opinions. Otherwise, I would have agreed to such a good thing before.
Do I still need to ask you?" Qin Donghe said.
Everyone immediately shut up and thought to themselves: You are afraid, so why bother talking about this? What kind of bullshit premonition? There are countless things that can be done.
Qin Donghe pondered as he walked along the walk: "However, if we don't accept this challenge, we will definitely be ridiculed in the future, which will also have a great impact on morale. Moreover, this is indeed an excellent opportunity. We have been unable to attack Luoyan Valley for a long time.
The situation is deadlocked, which is really a headache. Since they are overestimating their capabilities and want to confront us head-on, this is a great opportunity for us to capture Luoyangu Dazhai. This is really embarrassing. I don't want to miss this opportunity.
But I don’t want to take too many risks, so what should I do?”
The tent fell into silence, and everyone was thinking hard about a good solution, but their minds were in chaos and they couldn't think of a good solution.
At this time, a person in the corner suddenly said: "Master of Dazhai, I have a clever plan, I wonder if I can present it to you."
Everyone turned to look, but it was one of Qin Donghe's counselors named Yuan Song. This man was a failed scholar in Nanshan County. Because of his failure, he was dissatisfied with the court, so he fled into the mountains and became a bandit. Because he had read some books
, there are many truths in talking about him, so Qin Donghe kept him as a counselor in the village. But in fact, he was just a mediocre person with no talents. He was often scolded by Qin Donghe.
He only ate and did not work, and kept a useless person around him.
Seeing that it was Yuan Song who was speaking, all the leaders rolled their eyes and thought: What the hell do you have in mind? I'm afraid it's just nonsense again.
Qin Donghe was more interested in having more opinions at this moment, so he said in a deep voice: "Whatever you want to say, just say it."
Yuan Song cupped his hands and thanked him, and said in a soft voice: "All the subordinates heard what the leader of the stronghold just said. Now what the leader of the stronghold is worried about is whether they are playing a conspiracy by issuing this gauntlet. If this is a conspiracy.
, no matter how good the opportunity is, you can’t take the risk because it’s not worth taking the risk.”
Qin Donghe twisted his beard and nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Go on."
Yuan Song continued: "In fact, it is very simple to determine whether they have a conspiracy. Since it is a war, the leader of the village does not have to obey their mercy. Why don't the master of the village reply with a letter of war and tell them that we, Heifeng Village, are willing to
Accept their challenge and let the two sides fight it out. But you have to choose the location of the battle. See if they agree. If they don't agree, it means they have something evil in their hearts. There must be something weird in Luoyan Valley, just to lure us in.
That's all. If they agree to find another place to fight, we will choose another place to fight. At that time, it will be a real fight with real swords and guns. This is exactly what the leader of the village wants. The leader of the village thinks
Or not?"
Qin Donghe nodded slowly, and suddenly laughed loudly and said: "It makes sense, Yuan Song, you are still not confused at the critical moment. Yes, why should we fight in Luoyan Valley? We know there is something weird but still take risks,
Are we crazy? If you want to fight, you can just come out and fight. If you don't dare to come out, you have something in your heart. This is a wonderful idea. If they don't dare to come out to fight, it's not that I don't dare to confront them head-on, but that they are plotting.
It’s a trick, and no one else can tell us anything. Let’s do it this way. Yuan Song, you are very good, you are not just for free."
Yuan Song smiled and cupped his hands and said: "It is my duty to make suggestions for the leader of the village. I am willing to go to Luoyan Valley Village to support the leader of the village."
Qin Donghe chuckled and said, "Aren't you afraid that they will kill you?"
Yuan Song smiled and said: "Master of the stronghold, if the two armies are fighting, they will not kill the envoys. If the master of the stronghold does not kill Ruan Ping, they will not kill me. Besides, what if I am killed? I will follow the master of the stronghold for a few years."
, I feel very guilty for not having made any merit. Even if I die this time, I can still repay the kindness of the leader of the village."
Qin Donghe said loudly: "Okay, Yuan Song, I feel comfortable with what you say. I will ask you to go and run for me. Once you have done this, I will worship you as my military advisor when you come back. If you die, I will
You were buried with great splendor."
Yuan Song was extremely grateful and thanked him repeatedly.
At that moment, Qin Donghe ordered the teacher to call the teacher back to the tent to draft a reply for him. The teacher had just fallen so badly that his lower back was almost broken by Qin Donghe's kick, and the blood in his nose had just stopped.
, his beard was full of blood stains, but he didn’t dare not to come to do the work. However, when he picked up the pen to draft the reply, he no longer had the intention to be wordy. Originally, according to his temperament, this reply must be written with extraordinary momentum.
The other party wrote a letter of challenge, but at the moment he had no energy at all, so he simply recorded the matter hastily. There was no elegant and elegant words in the letter. It just recorded what Qin Donghe said as it happened. It was full of words such as, "I am not afraid of you, I am afraid that you will admit it."
Coward. "You can fight if you want, but I have to choose the place. If you have the guts, you will agree. If you don't, just say you don't have the guts." Such vulgar and simple words. They really don't have any literary talent at all.
When the matter reached this point, Ruan Ping naturally could not be killed. Although Bao Meng was very disappointed, for the sake of the overall situation, he had to swallow his anger. At that time, Yuan Song carried the letter and several personal followers, and followed Ruan Ping up and down Yangu University.
Go to the village.
…
In the Luoyan Valley Dazhai, Lin Jue started to get busy in the afternoon. The one hundred craftsmen and hundreds of helpers who were coming were brought to the open space behind the Juyi Hall by Lin Jue. The surrounding area has been guarded and no one is allowed.
Idle people are waiting to approach.
Including Gao Muqing, no one knew what the military advisor was going to do. Lin Jue didn't explain much and asked Lin Hu to take out a wooden box from the package he carried with him. After opening it, he took out a folded piece of paper.
After unfolding, there are some strange graphics dotted on it. In the middle is an octagonal cylindrical trumpet-shaped figure, surrounded by decomposed graphics, with various data such as size marked on it.
Gao Muqing was very curious and couldn't help but ask Lin Jue what he was doing. Lin Jue smiled mysteriously and didn't answer. He immediately ordered 300 men to go to the woods to cut down thick and strong trees. He asked that instead of using pine and fir wood, they should
Using hard-wooded trees such as pear, jujube and locust mulberry. It is obvious that something is being made.
While waiting for the logs to arrive, Lin Jue summoned a group of craftsmen to briefly explain the components of the thing on the drawing. The thing was actually not complicated. Although the craftsmen were not very skilled, they could still understand it.
.When the first batch of dozens of logs were delivered to the site, the craftsmen immediately began to work hard with their axes.
Gao Muqing and Bai Bing were wandering around boredly, asking Lin Jue what he wanted to build, but Lin Jue refused to say anything. The two of them were speechless. After wandering around, the two came together.
Gao Muqing felt a little angry when she saw Bai Bing dressed in white and looking youthful and beautiful. She already had a vague idea of the relationship between Lin Jue and Bai Bing. Although she was a generous woman and never jealous about this matter,
The knot in my heart is still there.
"How long have Miss Bai known him? He seems to love you very much. He took you with him when he came to the mountain. It's really like a bond. Are you married?" Gao Muqing asked with a smile.
Bai Bing's face turned red, knowing that Gao Muqing was deliberately provoking. Although Lin Jue had asked him not to be rude to Gao Muqing, Bai Bing refused to show weakness in the face of provocation.
"Sister Gao is joking. I came to the mountain to visit my master. The other purpose is to protect the young master. There is no one around to protect the young master, so how can it be done? Although sister Gao is very skilled in martial arts, she can't take care of her in the mountains all day long.
Young Master. But don’t worry, Sister Gao. From now on, I will take care of his safety, and Sister Gao can just be the leader of the village with peace of mind."
Gao Muqing was a little angry. Bai Bing was clearly saying, 'With me, Lin Jue won't need you anymore.' The words were subtle, but there was a hint of provocation in them.
"Oh? Miss Bai is so confident? Do you think you can protect him? Then I will give you a test. Miss Bai is Senior Bai's student. Famous teachers produce great disciples, so their martial arts skills must be first-rate. Let's compare.
After a while, I want to see if you are qualified and qualified to protect the young master's safety. If you can't even beat me, it will be a joke." Gao Muqing said with a smile.
Bai Bing's eyes turned into crescent moons as he nodded and said: "Sister Gao is competing, how dare I disobey? However, Sister Gao is the leader of the village. If she loses to me in front of so many people, wouldn't it be wrong?
It's a loss of face. I won't embarrass you. Let's do this. If you want to fight, we will fight eventually, but not at this moment. After we have retreated from the danger of the cottage, we will go to find a secluded place in the mountains and forests to separate.
What do you think, sister, of having a good time?"
Gao Muqing laughed, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, that's the deal. Before you leave, we will have a fight. If you win, I admit that you are qualified to protect him. If you lose, you must speak softly when you see me in the future.
There must be no offense in your words. Otherwise, I will teach you a lesson."
Bai Bingbing smiled and said, "That's it."
Gao Muqing snorted and turned around to leave. Bai Bing also walked to the side with a grim expression. Lin Jue, who was busy with a group of craftsmen and was sweating profusely, never expected that his two women were already facing each other.
For a while, before the duel with the enemy at the foot of the mountain, the two women had already finalized the agreement on the battle.
