After observing the terrain marked on the military map, Ning Wushuang asked,
"Although there are mountains here in Qingshui County, the roads are flat and we can completely bypass the city and force the opponent's main army to fight in the field with us. In this way, the enemy's natural danger will be gone.
It's just that in this case, you need to use the grassland, and you may have to face enemies on the grassland, which is not worth the gain.
Qian Jianjun, who is guarding Qingshui County? "
Hearing this, Qian Dafu smiled and said,
"The Qingshui Army in Qingshui County is formed by thieves. The commander in charge is your old subordinate, Wang Hao."
"Wang Hao? He also surrendered to the enemy?"
Ning Wushuang said in surprise.
Because he had been idle at home for a long time, he had few friends and was very closed to information about the outside world, so he did not understand what was going on outside.
"Yes, that's Wang Hao, who is very good at defending the city. He probably has tens of thousands of troops in Qingshui County."
"Wang Hao... If Wang Hao were to defend the city, and there were tens of thousands of troops, it would be absolutely impossible for us to capture Qingshui County."
Ning Wushuang sat down with a headache, looked at the map in front of him and muttered to himself,
"Why did these powerful people surrender to the enemy? The thief chief Nie Chen actually dared to reuse them and make them commanders. Is this person so courageous?"
Hearing this, Qian Dafu sneered and said,
"They are just some rats who are afraid of death and greedy for glory and wealth. Have you heard of Lin Guang, the gun of the Lin family?"
"I've heard of him, and I saw him once in Dongping County. He has good marksmanship, and he can be considered a tiger general."
Having said this, Ning Wushuang raised his head in surprise and asked,
"Why, he also took refuge with Nie Chen?"
"Yes, when he was stationed in Wulan County, he had a dispute with the son of the county governor. He accidentally beat the son to death, and then was arrested by the general. As a result, he ran away in the middle of the night. Later I found out that this guy actually ran to Weiwei. Hu County took refuge with Nie Chen."
Ning Wushuang didn't say anything. He still knew the county guards under King Anton very well. Every one of them had their own corpses, and they were nothing more than corrupt and wealthy people. How could the sons born to such people be any better?
Lin Guang beat the county governor's son to death because he probably couldn't stand what those dandies were doing, and he was doing something to get rid of harm for the people.
It's a pity that such a tiger general was forced to the enemy's side.
However, Liang Peng, Wang Hao, and Lin Guang, who were once under the command of King Anton, were actually willing to follow Nie Chen wholeheartedly, following a small bandit with only one county. This shows that Nie Chen is a person. , still has a unique charm.
Thinking of this, Ning Wushuang suddenly wanted to meet Nie Chen.
Let's see what kind of strange man this is. He can get King Anton's men to help him and turn around to attack King Anton's troops.
But he didn't dare to say these words. He couldn't praise the enemy's lord in front of Qian Dafu.
Suddenly, a soldier came over from outside the commander's tent, holding a note and handing it to Qian Dafu.
After Qian Dafu opened it, he smiled and handed the note to Ning Wushuang.
Ning Wushuang took the note full of doubts, looked at it, and said in shock,
"Ouyang Ming also took refuge with Nie Chen? Now he is in Guiling Pass?!"
"Yes, it's that Ouyang Ming. The governor of Hanzhong County personally invited him, and the prince also sent people to invite him, but this guy actually surrendered to Nie Chen.
I originally thought he was some great big shot, but now it seems that he is just a short-sighted person.
Even though the prince is so powerful, he chose Nie Chen instead of defecting. He would have defected to any of the four kings, even the royal family. I am not surprised. But he chose a bandit. It really made me laugh to death. . "
Qian Dafu laughed, but Ning Wushuang couldn't laugh at all.
His experience of being a classmate with Ouyang Ming for several years made him extremely aware of how terrifying Ouyang Ming was.
Against such a person, the chances of winning are really slim.
In Ning Wushuang's eyes, Weihu County, three hundred miles away, was no longer an iron wall, but a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.
"Qian Jianjun, please go back and rest first. I'll look at the map again."
"Okay, Ning Shuai, go to bed early. Only by taking good care of your body can you win the battle."
Qian Dafu left with a smile.
Ning Wushuang sat slumped on the chair, looked at the note in her hand, and murmured,
"Senior Brother Ouyang, have you also taken refuge with him..."
After a moment, Ning Wushuang's eyes burst into light.
When leading a battle, one must not be timid before fighting, even if the opponent is Ouyang Ming, so what? Even if there are 150,000 troops on the opposite side, so what? So what if it's a dragon's pond or a tiger's den?
When the time comes for the duel between the two armies, I would rather Wushuang than see what your senior brother Ouyang is really capable of.
…
Dongping County, the county seat.
daytime.
As the hometown of King Andong and the fiefdom of past dynasties, the development of Dongping County is still very good. Whether it is the scale of the city, economy and trade, or the height of the city walls, they are all top-notch.
The four major families under the command of King Andong are all located in Dongping County. These rich and powerful people have also driven the prosperity of the county.
There is a river inside the county town that passes through the city and divides the county town into two major areas: East City and West City.
Painted boats and flower boats are flowing continuously on the river, and there are laughter and laughter everywhere, which is a beautiful scene of the prosperous times.
Three miles west of the river, there are many courtyards. In front of a quiet and elegant courtyard, a plaque with the word "Ning Mansion" hangs.
In the past, there were many people with Ningfu plaques in Dongping County. After all, the Ning family had a great business. Later, the Ning family fell into decline, leaving Ning Wushuang alone to take the lead, so only his family could hang the Ningfu signboard.
This mansion is not big, it only has three courtyards. If placed in the home of ordinary people, it would be a prosperous home, but placed in this place full of dignitaries, it looks extremely shabby.
At this time, a young man carrying two loads of fresh vegetables came out of the alley and knocked on the door of Ning Mansion.
After a while, the door opened. An old servant in his fifties opened the door. After seeing the young man in front of him, he said doubtfully,
"Who are you?"
The young man dressed as a salesman smiled.
"The food delivery guy."
"Isn't it usually the owner of the vegetable shop who delivers food? Why are you here today?"
The old servant asked doubtfully.
"Mr. Zhou, Lao Zhang is my cousin, and I am his nephew. I just came to the county to join him recently. Today, my cousin is ill, so he asked me to deliver groceries to your home."
"Oh, okay then, pick it in."
"okay."
The young man carried the vegetable basket and entered the Ning Mansion.
Old servant Zhou closed the door.
After the young man came in, he looked around at the environment of Ning Mansion.
This young man is one of the leaders of the Shadow Guard.
His name is Li Mo!
