"That's very good. Thank you so much, Lord."
Zhou Ping smiled.
Nie Chen nodded and said,
"I have been busy recently and have no time to engage in other businesses. When I am free in the future, I will open some factories. Let's develop industry, make glass, and make lenses and telescopes. Let me tell you, this telescope is a good thing. It can allow people to see several things. Something outside of it.
With this thing, our generals and scouts can detect the enemy's situation in time..."
Just when Nie Chen was talking with great interest, Qi Huan suddenly came hurriedly from outside, clasped his hands and said,
"Lord, we have military intelligence!"
"Say it."
"My lord, after Liu Hu asked King Andong for help, King Andong sent a hundred thousand troops from his hometown Dongping County to Weihu County for rescue.
But a few days ago, after these 100,000 people arrived at Hequ County, they suddenly stopped. It must be that King Anton received the news that we had occupied Weihu County.
Afterwards, King Anton discussed for a few more days, and after a game between the big families, they finally decided to let Ning Wushuang from the Ning family come to lead troops to fight with us and take back Weihu County.
Ning Wushuang brought another 50,000 soldiers and horses from Dongping County to join the 100,000 people. A total of 150,000 troops came to attack us. "
"Ning Wushuang?"
Ouyang Ming's eyes lit up and he became energetic.
"What? Mr. Ouyang has heard of this person?"
"Of course I've heard of him, and I've seen him before. He's my junior brother."
Ouyang Ming smiled.
"Junior brother?"
Nie Chen said in surprise,
"May I ask what sect you belong to, sir, and who did you learn from?"
"What does sect mean?"
"That's what the sect means."
"oh oh."
Ouyang Ming nodded to express his understanding and said,
"My master, Xuan Weizi, founded a sect in the western border of Qi State. Because the dojo is on Yunmeng Mountain, it is also called Yunmeng Sect.
Teacher Xuan Weizi must be over eighty years old this year. He is extremely proficient in all walks of life. He is a famous strategist, strategist, military strategist, martial artist, Qi practitioner, etc. In any profession, His elders are all leaders, and they are comparable to gods.
Each of his disciples can only learn one skill from him, but just this one skill can make the disciples become the best among men!
In my early years, when I was traveling around the world, I went to Yunmeng Mountain and visited the most famous teacher in the world. I was deeply impressed by his talent and knowledge, and I immediately knelt down to worship him.
I learned the strategic skills from Master Xuan Weizi, and a year after I went up the mountain, Ning Wushuang also went up the mountain. Because we are both Feng people, we are relatively close and have a good relationship. What he learned is The teacher’s commanding skills! "
"Such a powerful person? It's a pity that he is in Qi State and is too far away to invite him over."
Nie Chen said regretfully.
"My lord, don't think about asking the teacher to come out. I don't know how many monarchs and emperors from the four countries have wanted to ask the teacher to come out, but they have failed because the teacher is devoted to cultivating Taoism and wants to become an immortal.
His main identity is a Qi practitioner, and other knowledge is studied and played in his spare time, but it is this kind of fun in his spare time that allows him to cultivate many powerful people. "
"For example, Mr. Ouyang, a powerful person like you, haha, are there really immortals in this world? Can humans become immortals?"
Nie Chen asked curiously.
"Of course it's impossible, but practicing qi can indeed cultivate one's character and live a few more years. The teacher is just obsessed with cultivating the Tao.
Lord, I know you also want immortality, but I must advise you to give up this desire. Many kings in the past dynasties have been unable to resist the temptation of immortality, and have been deceived by those so-called Qi practitioners and drained their treasury. The elixir ignores the government affairs, causing the country to be in turmoil, weakening the country, and causing hundreds of officials to fight for power..."
"Stop, stop, stop, I'm just asking out of curiosity. I won't make elixirs and cultivate immortality. That stuff is too illusory. I'll be poisoned by heavy metals after taking elixirs, so I won't do it.
Let’s talk about Xuan Weizi, ah no, let’s talk about Ning Wushuang. "
Nie Chen wiped his sweat. He felt that if he continued to talk about cultivating immortals, Ouyang Ming would have to rebuke him.
"Okay, Ning Wushuang is a descendant of the Ning family. He and his master focused on learning the military skills of commanding troops and fighting. Moreover, he was very talented and learned quickly and thoroughly. Later, he and I left Yunmeng Mountain one after another and returned to I came to Feng Kingdom, and I heard that he fought several famous and victorious battles under King Anton."
"In other words, this person is a powerful enemy. Although he only has 150,000 people, if he is careless, he may really defeat him."
Nie Chen said with a solemn expression.
Ouyang Ming thought for a while and said,
"If we simply defend, there will be no problem. After all, we now have an army of hundreds of thousands. But if we want to defeat him, capture him, and make him surrender to us, we will have to put more effort into it.
Wouldn't the Lord be tempted by such a famous commander? "
"Of course I am tempted, but he is a noble under King Anton, so he looks down on me, right?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Huan immediately said,
"Lord, I think there is still a chance."
"Oh? Please sit down and explain in detail."
After hearing this, Qi Huan pulled up a chair and sat down, saying,
"Lord, because our main enemy at this stage is King Anding, some time ago, the Shadow Guard sect Qiu Ying infiltrated into Dongping County and King Anding's lair. We focused on exploring King Anding's military strength and famous generals. Found something interesting.”
"What's interesting?"
"General Wang Hao has been Ning Wushuang's subordinate for a period of time before. The battle he fought to become famous against King Zhennan was the tactics arranged by Ning Wushuang. In that battle, Wang Hao not only became famous in one battle, but also became even more famous. It’s Ning Wushuang who is the commander-in-chief!”
Hearing this, Nie Chen became more energetic and said,
"Then how about asking Mr. Ouyang and Wang Hao to write a letter together to persuade Ning Wushuang to surrender?"
Qi Huan's head was full of black lines and he said,
"My lord, shouldn't we be wary of Wang Hao being incited to rebel by Ning Wushuang?"
"No, Wang Hao is not stupid. He is the commander-in-chief here. If he goes to King Anton, he can just be the commander-in-chief."
Ouyang Ming also smiled and said,
"My lord, don't think about surrendering before fighting. Unless we can capture Ning Wushuang alive, General Wang and I will go out together to persuade him to surrender.
General Qi, please continue to tell us about Ning Wushuang's information. "
"Okay, Ning Wushuang is not very popular with King Anton. Because he has won several battles, other families are jealous of his power, so they slander King Anton. King Anton is also worried about Ning Wushuang. The power was too great, so they took away Ning Wushuang's military power.
Not only that, King Anton also found an excuse to kill or exile all the collateral clan members of the Ning family in order to check and balance Ning Wushuang and weaken Ning Wushuang's power.
If Ning Wushuang still had some prestige, he might not even be able to protect his own parents. "
