Fang Cheng naturally refused. These are all rich and valuable people. If they go like this, there will be one who has three advantages and two disadvantages. His heads are not enough to cut off: "Master Hou, this is absolutely impossible..."
"What's wrong!" Marquis Ning Yuan came up, "One is my son and the other is my future son-in-law. If something happens, I will be responsible for it! Look at your tired looks. You are surrounded like this in the middle of the night. It probably won’t happen once or twice, even an iron man can’t stand it!”
"General!" Fang Cheng saluted Marquis Ningyuan, "I also sent people to look at it before. When they touched the edge, they were attacked by people from Northern Xinjiang. Several people almost couldn't come back, and even after they came back, they were all attacked. He was injured, this is really too dangerous!”
Ning Yuanhou looked at the torches not far away: "These juniors are always allowed to take a look. After all, Meng Hetong is Meng Chang's son. He was also among the soldiers before and followed me to suppress the bandits. Let's Let him go, what if there is any unexpected surprise?"
Fang Cheng naturally knew that Meng Hetong was Meng Chang's son, but it was precisely because of his knowledge that he did not dare to take the risk. After all, Yongchang Marquis was deceased and the only child left behind was Meng Hetong. If something went wrong, How could they be worthy of the late Marquis Yongchang!
Looking at Fang Cheng's appearance, Marquis Ning Yuan roughly guessed what he was thinking, and smiled: "Do you think if Meng Chang were here, he would be allowed to go?"
Fang Cheng raised his head and looked at Marquis Ningyuan. After a long time, he sighed deeply and relaxed: "Be careful, this is the border and a battlefield, not a paddock for horseback riding and archery in the capital. You must raise 120,000 yuan." Be careful and take every step carefully!"
Meng Hetong glanced at Marquis Ningyuan who was standing behind Fang Cheng, and then looked at Fang Cheng: "Don't worry, I haven't married yet, so be careful!"
After Meng Hetong said this, he ran quickly.
Fang Cheng had heard about the marriage between Marquis Yongchang and Marquis Ningyuan, but when he saw the ugly face of Marquis Ningyuan, he couldn't help but walked up to Xu Yanquan and asked softly: "What, this marriage?" , your father is unhappy?"
"Our whole family has been plotted by that bastard Meng Hetong, and my father is still worried! Although he just admitted that he is the future son-in-law, when he really thinks about it, he still feels angry!" Xu Yanquan said in a low voice. .
Marquis Ning Yuan on the side naturally heard it and glanced at Xu Yanquan coldly: "Why, don't you go with me to take a look?"
"It's not very useful. This boy Meng Hetong is a bit crazy, but he is also calm and capable. Otherwise, father, you wouldn't have agreed to this marriage!" Xu Yanquan said jokingly.
Ning Yuanhou's face instantly turned darker.
Meng Hetong originally said that he would go out through the side door, but at the moment when he went out, he changed his mind and walked out from the main door, just feeling in the dark without lighting a torch!
When Fang Cheng saw him going out like this, he immediately panicked and wanted to pull him back, but Ning Yuanhou smiled: "Don't worry, this is a smart boy. Since he dares to do this, he naturally has such a plan. ! If that doesn’t work, just wait until he is beaten to death and we will have time to go out again.”
Hearing Ning Yuanhou's words, Fang Cheng's face turned green. What do you mean by waiting for him to be beaten to death before going out? That is really scary! This man was beaten to death just after he arrived. Wouldn't this soldier's morale be about to hit rock bottom?
Fang Cheng anxiously wanted to follow, but was stopped by Ning Yuanhou.
Meng Hetong rode forward, followed by a group of people. These people followed Meng Hetong during the military training. I don't know what method he used, but in the end, these soldiers were completely convinced by him!
A group of them rode towards the crowd on the opposite side majestically, and then Fang Cheng watched nervously as a row of torches fell to the ground, and then another row behind, and one row after another.
Fang Cheng watched the torches fall, his eyes full of disbelief: "Why, how could..."
Marquis Ningyuan didn't say much, but after waiting for more than an hour, Meng and Tong came slowly with torches held high, and tied behind them were the Northern Xinjiang infantry ambushing in the haystacks.
Yeah, just mediocre infantry.
When Xu Yanquan saw Meng Hetong returning slowly and the Northern Xinjiang soldiers tied behind him, he immediately understood: "They set up an empty formation just to consume our energy."
"But when I checked earlier, it was clearly not like this!" Fang Cheng couldn't help but frown.
"That means they did set up a formation at the beginning, and they also started to gradually test in this way. No matter how close we are, we can't see clearly whether they are real people." Xu Yanquan said softly, " And as a rule, when we go to check the opponent's true situation, we often check from both sides of the formation, so they only need to go in the opposite direction and arrange ambush soldiers on both sides of the formation. It doesn't matter how many times we go. Every time, you will find that the opponent actually has soldiers in this formation!"
Fang Cheng was annoyed: "So, this time, Yongchang Hou went out from the main entrance in an open manner, but avoided the soldiers guarding them on both sides, and stabbed directly into their dummy formation! But why did they use this method? ?Although we may feel a little tired, we are also soldiers changing the guard, so we can still have a certain amount of rest."
"If this method is used continuously for more than half a month, or a month, it will greatly reduce the alertness of the soldiers, and will also make the people in the city disgusted. They feel that we only know how to protect the city and do not know how to do anything. Fight back!" Ning Yuanhou said softly, "This Sangge group is indeed as rumored to say, he is a guy who is very good at inciting people!"
Fang Cheng frowned. He actually still didn't quite understand the twists and turns. He was a very responsible and upright general. If he was asked to take the lead in the charge, he could keep rushing forward at all costs, but if Let him meet someone who is trying so hard to destroy you from the inside, and he will become a little at a loss.
Marquis Ningyuan patted him on the shoulder: "In the next few days, don't light torches to defend the city. One team every hour, patrol every corner, but don't light lamps, let alone torches!"
Although Fang Cheng was unsure, he still nodded: "Yes, I will obey your orders!"
Marquis Ningyuan glanced at Meng Hetong, who had returned, and laughed: "That brat still has some brains!"
