Zhang Xuli turned around and said anxiously: "Isn't there something going on at the border? Cui Congsheng, who escaped from the south, is causing trouble and wants to join Dong Yuan. In that case, Murong Yi will suffer a loss, so I went to help him. Be back soon, very soon." As he said that, he left quickly, walked out of the door, and ran away.
In the west of the city, Murong Yi pushed his army forward in order to strangle Dong Yuan and camped at the border of Dong Yuan's territory.
This year's continuous attacks on Sesha City cost Dong Yuan a lot. He originally thought that after repeated attacks, he would be able to exhaust Sesha City's resources and troops, but now he was suppressed by the army. Dong Yuan looked ugly, sitting in the council hall, watching Everyone below.
"Money will be exceeded. Didn't you call this a war of attrition? I think the name is correct, but it is us who are wasting away."
Seeing that Dong Yuan was already angry, Qian Huichao hurriedly said: "Lord, Sesha City is at the end of its rope and has reached our border. We can concentrate our forces and destroy them."
Seeing that Qian Huichao was so relaxed, Dong Yuan became even more angry and cursed: "Eradicate, how to eliminate it? Who can resist Murong Yi's fighting power? A Ming-breaking Bow in his hand will kill you from a hundred meters away."
Being stared at and scolded by Dong Yuan, he was so anxious that money would exceed his forehead and beads of sweat would appear on his forehead.
"Report, lord, there is Cui Congsheng who wants to see you." The soldiers outside the hall walked in and reported.
"Cui Congsheng." Dong Yuan muttered something in his mouth and said, "I haven't seen you, send him away."
"But he sent the two Mei Xian girls, who are just outside the hall." The soldier said.
I have long heard that Cui Congsheng ran away from Lupo City with Da Mei'er and Xiao Xian'er. These two Mei Xian girls are famous for their beauty. They are outside the hall now, so there is no harm in meeting them.
"Then bring it in."
Not long after Dong Yuan's voice fell, Da Mei'er and Xiao Xian'er walked in step by step from outside the hall.
As his eyes slowly narrowed, Dong Yuan's face gradually became stiff. Time seemed to stop for an instant, his mind went blank, and he stared at the two girls of Meixian with a look of obsession.
"I've seen the lord." The two Meixian girls walked up to Dong Yuan, stopped, and shouted softly.
"Oh, okay, okay, Cui Congsheng is good. You go down first and ask Cui Congsheng to come over."
"yes."
The two Meixian girls stepped back slowly, and Cui Congsheng walked in from outside the hall.
After meeting Dong Yuan, Cui Congsheng said: "Lord, on the way here, I heard that Murong Yi led the army to Deni City. Maybe it is God's will that gives me the opportunity to present a meeting gift to the lord."
With the army approaching, Dong Yuan would not have bothered to pay attention to Cui Congsheng if it were not for the sake of the two beauties.
"Hmph..." Dong Yuan pulled a face and snorted coldly from his nose.
Seeing Dong Yuan's displeasure, Cui Congsheng said: "Lord, this time Murong Yi led the army to our border alone, and there is no other army to support him. As long as we cut off his retreat, under the attack from the front and rear, Murong Yi's combat power will be greatly reduced." No matter how high you go, there is nothing you can do to save yourself.”
When these words came to Dong Yuan's heart, his expression suddenly improved.
"Money will surpass you. Look at Cui Congsheng. He came up with such a good strategy as soon as he came here. I have raised you for so long and you haven't even farted. Learn from it."
After being scolded by Dong Yuan, Qian Huichao looked ugly and kept saying: "Yes, yes, I will definitely study more in the future."
"Okay, Bai Likui, take one flag of troops and go around behind Murong Yi. I will lead one flag of troops to attack from the front. When the time comes, we will attack from the front and back to kill Murong Yi. Oh, no, we have to capture them alive and let Murong Yi do it later. Work for me, hahaha.”
"Yes, Lord." Bai Likui shouted in response.
The news of Dong Yuan's dispatch of troops quickly spread to Sesha City. Zhang Xinyi, who was in the hall, received the news sent by Prime Minister Tuoba and immediately walked into Luo Feng's office.
"Lord, Dong Yuan has sent troops."
Jiang Yuxuan had already made arrangements. When he heard that Dong Yuan was sending troops, Luo Feng was not in a hurry and asked calmly: "How many troops?"
Zhang Xinyi replied: "It is divided into two groups. One group is led by Dong Yuan himself, about one flag, and the other group is led by Bai Likui, also about one flag."
"The return troops are divided into two groups. It seems that it is exactly what Jiang Hongguan said, to cut off Murong's retreat."
"What should we do?" Zhang Xinyi asked anxiously.
Luo Feng smiled and said: "Since Jiang Hongguan could predict it, he naturally prepared a response strategy and sent Zhang Xuli to lead troops to support."
Zhang Xuli's impression in Zhang Xinyi's mind has always been bad, but fortunately, Zhang Xuli's combat ability is good. After careful calculation, he really didn't make any big mistakes.
"So that's it, that's good." Zhang Xinyi continued: "One more thing, Hong Fengliu sent a letter, saying that he has arrived in Aixian City. Calculating the time, it is time to meet with Ma Heng."
"That's good. This time is not only to congratulate Ma Heng, but also to further strengthen our relationship with Ma Heng. As long as we can be on good terms with Ma Heng, we can go west and annex Dong Yuan." Luo Feng said proudly. .
At the foot of Aiqi City, Ma Xiaoke had just returned from Qibin City. Hearing that Luo Feng sent people to congratulate him and gave him many gifts, he happily accelerated his pace towards the city.
In the lord's mansion, Ma Heng prepared a reception banquet. Hong Fengliu sat down with his head lowered. After having a drink with Ma Heng, he said: "Lord Ma, this time Mr. Ma went north to open up the border and came back victorious. Our lord specially ordered me to come. Congratulations and gifts."
"You, Lord Luo, are being polite. If you want to give me a gift, just come over and have a drink." Ma Heng said happily.
"Haha, Lord Ma is still a straightforward person. I often hear our lords praise Lord Ma and your young master."
"Is there any? Hahaha, we will occupy the southeast corner, a small lord, not worth mentioning, otherwise Elmo City will not be handed over to you." Ma Heng said with a smile.
Hearing Ma Heng's words, Hong Fengliu was shocked. What he originally wanted to say about neighbors being kind to each other and not invading each other stopped.
Seeing Ma Heng remain calm, he actually changed drastically. Hong Fengliu suppressed the turmoil in his heart and said calmly: "Haha, when it comes to this, our two families really have a tacit understanding. One went north and the other went south. Although we didn't agree in advance, we worked together to eliminate the enemy. Our lords are also righteous and won the victory. After Aimer City, we will no longer go westward, and will hand over Qibin City and other places within easy reach to Lord Ma to show our sincerity."
"Hahaha." Ma Heng laughed: "That's good. All the credit goes to you, so what are you doing here?"
"The alliance moves westward." Hong Fengliu said sonorously and forcefully.
"Is there any reason for me to agree?" Ma Heng asked.
"Just like the battle in Aimer City, our lord will take the smaller one, and the big profits will still be on Lord Horse's side."
No matter how nice the words are, Ma Heng will not be moved. It's just that Luo Feng has too many high-fighting heroes. It is indeed more beneficial to start a war with Luo Feng than to join forces to advance westward. However, after the westward march is over, Luo Feng's combat power will probably increase a lot, and he will be a strong opponent by then. Ma Heng is a little hesitant.
