"Idiot, you plowed other people's fields and laid waste your own land. Hurry up and find the arrow clusters next to the camp and destroy them." Wu Gen stood in the Northern Army camp and shouted angrily.
Niu Chao muttered and cursed, carrying a big bag behind his back, patrolling around the Beijun camp, searching for arrow clusters buried in the soil.
The Confederate army's counterattack was over. After the Ling Guards took the lead in strangulation and other soldiers of the Confederate army attacked one after another, the coalition army was finally defeated. On the water table, there was a river of blood and debris everywhere.
Many people, regardless of life or death, fled into the vast fog, with their lives and deaths unknown. Without the barrier-breaking pupil, Yiwu restricted the actions of the Northern and Southern armies, and also restricted the coalition forces.
After this fighting, the coalition forces that were caught off guard lost at least nearly 10,000 horses, and suddenly gave up a lot of their original numerical advantage.
After the battle, the Confederate army could not rush into the fog to pursue them, so they could only let the scattered coalition soldiers disappear into the fog.
After watching the battle, Wu Gen turned around and returned to the Northern Army camp. He saw that the surrounding area was gray, and it was reported that the Gu family was still spreading fog around their home. He couldn't help but get angry and attack Niu Chao. I called him over and gave him a lesson.
Sitting in front of the big tent, Wu Gen looked at the heavy mist not far away, which was as heavy as a mountain, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
It is said that once the barrier-breaking pupil is destroyed, the Gu family should withdraw the fog to create opportunities for their own troops to attack. Why does it continue to maintain it and try to re-close the holes caused by the destruction of the arrow clusters.
Unable to figure it out, Wu Gen stood up irritably. Being confined to one place was really uncomfortable, so he forced Niu Chao to look around for arrow clusters even though he knew that he had been struggling all night.
"Luo Zhang, go find Yang Zheng." Wu Gen ordered. Since he couldn't use the Zhishui Mirror, he could only carry Luo Zhang or Zhuo Ke with him.
After a while, Yang Zheng hurried over and said, "Fortress leader, something is wrong."
"Have we established a line with the coalition forces? I'm going to meet them tonight." Wu Gen took out the piece of paper given by Ji Ye and asked directly.
"We hooked up, but the other party's attitude is a bit ambiguous. He doesn't refuse, doesn't respond, and doesn't take the initiative." Yang Zheng said after careful consideration, "Isn't it a bit unreasonable to meet at this time?"
"It seems that the coalition forces want to drag it out. I don't know why they are like this. I feel a little uneasy, so I want to meet with the other side and have a try. It would be best if I can persuade the other side. After all, the two families are in a stalemate here. For a long time It's not good for us if we grow too long. It's better to find some changes to the situation, and we may not be able to finally break the situation." Wu Gen looked a little tired. After playing for such a long time, he was really exhausted both physically and mentally.
"Okay, I'll contact the other party, where to meet, and who to bring with me." Seeing that Wu Gen had already made up his mind, Yang Zheng had no choice but to agree.
Wu Gen thought for a while and said, "The meeting place is far away from each other's camp. If you are afraid of being discovered by others, you can meet at the edge of the mist. As for the troops, each side will bring two people. I am going to let Zhuo Ke and Luo Just follow the chapter and it will be done.”
"Take Li Qi with you. He has nothing to do in the camp these days. Do you want to pay the bird catcher some more money so that the enemy's masters will not be around to deal with it." Yang Zheng looked around, his expression a little serious.
Wu Gen raised his eyebrows. Yang Zheng looked like he was hiding something, "But there is something."
"It's just some speculation without any solid evidence. We'll wait until it's confirmed." Yang Zheng lifted his belt, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Okay, you have to be careful when it comes to your own people, don't hurt people's hearts." Wu Gen warned, casually thrust the paper in his hand to Yang Zheng, and said with a smile: "You are from the royal family, let's see what official position you can give him. good."
Yang Zheng was very good at it. He took it and looked at it carefully for a long time, then started talking to Wu Gen in a low voice.
In the Northern Army camp at night, Wu Gen, with Zhuo, Luo and Li, carefully entered the mist and headed north.
Since there is no obstacle-breaking pupil, it is difficult to discern the direction when one enters the fog, even with the help of a childish water mirror. For example, if you think the opposite direction is north, you have actually circled to the east or west, so it feels most useless at this time. Fortunately, there is a straight canyon leading to the north near the camp where the Northern Army is stationed. You can't get lost if you walk along the canyon.
They groped forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. After walking for an unknown amount of time, the mist in front gradually became thinner. Finally, they reached the edge of the mist.
After the mist emerged, Wu Gen looked around and followed Yang Zheng's instructions, heading north and finding a large tree that was rare in the grassland, and sat down next to the tree.
Zhuo Ke and Luo Zhang carefully explored the surrounding area in case someone ambushed them. Li Qize slowly escaped into the darkness as usual.
Sitting under this leafy tree, through the gaps in the leaves, streaks of starlight seeped down like fine quicksand. The wind rustled through the leaves, soothing the boredom caused by the fierce battles these days.
Leaning against the tree, listening to the breeze, the chirping of insects, and the chirping of cicadas, Wu Gen suddenly seemed to have returned to the original Dafeng Village, feeling a little bit like returning geese and homesickness. qδ.net
"Li Qi, we've known each other for so long, but you haven't said where your home is yet." Wu Gen said quietly with a piece of grass in his mouth, looking at the stars in the distance.
"How can a person like me have a home?" The voice came from the darkness, rising and falling.
"This is my hometown where my heart is at ease. I don't know where Brother Li's heart is." Wu Gen rested his head on his arms and lay down leisurely.
The other party didn't answer, and after a long time he said, "I have no heart."
"Haha, who can be heartless?" Wu Gen sneered, pointing to the tree above his head and jokingly said: "Do you think this tree looks like a perfect place to hang someone?"
"If you have such an idea, I can help." Li Qi's voice was still cold.
Just as he was about to joke a few more words, Zhuo Ke hurriedly came from a distance and said, "Here comes someone."
Wu Gen sat up suddenly and spat out the grass in his mouth, "How many people are here."
"Three people." Zhuo Ke whispered, "Luo Zhang has already stepped forward to greet them. Let's see if the other party has any other means."
"Well, if the other party can come, it means that half of the deal is already done, but we should be more careful." Wu Gen nodded, "Li Qi, when we discuss it later, go check around and see if anyone is following you."
After a period of rustling, Li Qi had disappeared.
There was a slight sound of horse hooves in the distance. It seemed that the other party's horse hooves were wrapped in something like cloth. Wu Gen stood up, walked out of the shadow of the tree, held his knife and waited for the other party to arrive.
The visitor finally arrived under the tree and looked around warily, "Wu Gen, you are here early."
"Young Master Ba, Ba Zhenfu, I have been waiting for you two for a long time." Wu Gen laughed loudly and pointed behind him, "We are all old acquaintances. I have brought a few pots of turbid wine. Why don't you sit down and enjoy the moon and the wind? Night scenes, narrating the gathering and separation of heroes, and discussing the rise and fall of family and country."
"Wu Gen, don't be so sour. If you have something to say, tell me quickly. I don't have much time to talk nonsense with you." Ba Hong jumped off the horse, followed by Ba Yueze and an entourage.
"Come on, come on, sit down." Wu Gen showed no objection and made a gesture of invitation, "If Brother Ba feels something is wrong, we can also go to the mist to talk."
"No need, I don't know what tricks you are hiding in the mist. You have always been cruel and evil, and you are definitely capable of doing things like this secretly." Bahong walked carefully to the tree and took a closer look. all around.
"What are you talking about? Brother Ba really blamed me wrongly. I, Wu Gen, have always been upright and open-minded, so how could I resort to such dirty tricks." Wu Gen followed him to the tree and sat down first. "If you want to harm someone, Young Master, why would you go to all the trouble to get here? You can just send a few fowlers to assassinate you."
"You think you are the only one who can hire the bird catchers? They only need money, but they don't have any moral principles." Bahong looked disdainful and waved his hand gently. Six black figures appeared around the tree and disappeared in an instant. in the dark.
Wu Gen's expression froze, and he said with a smile: "Brother Ba is really too careful to do such a terrible thing. Forget it, without further ado, I will tell you directly. Did Brother Ba ever keep your father's letter? Already."
Ba Hong's face changed slightly, and he said bitterly: "So what if you keep it? My father is in jail and was forced to write this letter to ask my Ba family to submit to Ji's family. Is it possible that just a piece of paper can force me to take it with me?" People surrendered."
"Brother Ba, regardless of whether your father's letter is voluntary or forced, this move is indeed for
Hello Ba family. "Wu Gen looked at the other party with a smile, "Think about it, at this time when the Ji family is in trouble, if the Ba family can bring order to the chaos and take credit for the rescue, then wouldn't it be a bright future after the war? When the chaos in the province calms down, The Ba family took advantage of the situation and supported the Ji family as emperor, duly following the dragon's honor.
Brother Ba, think about it, after this incident, the Ba family will definitely soar into the sky and prosper forever. What many people dream of, the Ba family can easily get it by just following the trend, so why not do it. "
Ba Hong raised his head and laughed, as if he had heard a big joke, "What is the power of Conglong, Wu Gen? No matter how clever you are, you can't stop the fact that the Ji family is about to perish. This will overturn the boat. Why should I risk my family's fate to climb up the ladder? The coalition forces are preparing to kill the Ji family in one fell swoop these days. When you and Ji Ye become prisoners, I can send you some food. You two are well on your way."
"No, no, no." Wu Gen shook his head, as if he had a pearl of wisdom in his hand, "I have been fighting with you all the way since the coalition army took off, and I know the strength of you and others very clearly. The coalition army has actually been defeated, so let's Brother Ba and I will talk about it in detail.
As soon as the barrier-breaking pupil was destroyed, Yi Wu's methods had been seen through by our army, and he could no longer stop our army from advancing. Without these supports, the Ji family's horses are already stronger than those of other families. How could the coalition be undefeated?
Secondly, the Wen family has sent troops to attack the southern coalition forces. Our army has asked Yuan Xin to secretly send people to attack the coalition forces. The coalition forces and the Ji family are almost the same size. Once the coalition forces here are defeated in one fell swoop, it will be easy to defeat the remaining enemies on the southern front.
Third, tell the truth to Brother Ba. I had already contacted the Murong family before meeting you. They have surrendered to the Lu family and sent another group to attack the Lu family's city and the Qiulin family's horses, preparing to cut off the coalition's retreat.
Fourthly, it can be seen from the Wen family's dispatch of troops that although each family was hesitant at first, they finally sympathized with the Ji family and began to mobilize troops to serve the king. With these four advantages, how could the Ji family be victorious? ”.
Despite what Wu Gen said, in fact, the Wen family on the southern front only sent a few thousand troops to watch the battle from a distance. It is hard to say whether these people are helping the Ji family or the coalition forces. It can only be said that all the families in the Iron Hand Province are waiting and watching, trying to bet on both ends. Until the end, you will never know their position.
"Haha." Bahong raised his head and laughed, laughing so hard that tears almost flowed out, "Wu Gen, Wu Gen, what you said is far-fetched. Let me ask you, if the Murong family attacks the coalition forces, Murong Yu will How can the five thousand people led by Qiang handle themselves? They are so close to the coalition forces, and they were wiped out in reverse."
"Although Murong Yuqiang is a female classmate, she is much more decisive than Brother Ba. Once she sends troops, she is prepared to escape from Huali City alone and join her own troops." Wu Gen had already deduced Ba in detail with Yang Zheng before he came. Hong Po's questions were answered fluently.
"What to do with the five thousand troops?" Bahongyu didn't believe it.
"Just throw it away. Five thousand people are worth sacrificing for the sake of the future of the family." Wu Gen responded calmly.
After hesitating for a long time, Bahong still sighed, "Wu Gen, to tell you the truth, it's not that I don't want to do anything anyway, it's just that I don't dare to do it anyway. According to Lu Lie and Gu Yangsi's private revelations, while the Southern Army was outside, a large army was preparing to attack. He ran towards Hanlu City from the north, preparing to join forces with the coalition forces to attack the Ji family. As for who they were, Gu Yangsi did not reveal them. After the barrier-breaking pupil was destroyed in the past few days, the reason why the fog was not removed was precisely to delay Live in the Northern and Southern Army."
After hearing this news suddenly, Wu Gen couldn't help but be shocked. Which family had rebelled and directly attacked Hanlu City. Hanlu City is an isolated city with no guards outside and only Ji Chen is guarding it. This puts the Ji family in trouble.
