Chen Yixin's idea coincides with Bao Zhuhua. If Chen Mo brings the sergeants from the Jiangbei camp to put out the fire, the troops to guard the southern border will be empty. If the Southern Miao people invade at this time, it will be difficult for the Jiangbei camp to resist.
But there is one thing that really makes Chen Yixin confused. Logically speaking, the empty guards in the Jiangbei Camp are very beneficial to the Southern Miao people, but Bao Zhuhua actually reminded herself not to mobilize the troops of the Jiangbei Camp easily, so as not to fall into the trap of the old man Tianqi. count. Her move was indeed beyond Chen Yixin's expectation. For a moment, she didn't know what her intention was.
Baozhuhua saw Chen Yixin looking at him with a little doubt, and smiled slightly: "Miss, are you surprised, why would I remind you not to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Jiangnan camp?"
Chen Yixin was stunned and thought to herself: "This Baozhuhua is really smart. She can see through my thoughts at a glance. If this person is not eliminated, he will definitely become a powerful enemy of our Daxia Kingdom in the future."
Even though Bao Zhuhua was astute and clever, he could not have guessed that Chen Yixin had murderous intentions towards him at this moment. It was not until five years later, when Bao Zhuhua met Chen Yixin's eyes again, that she could see the murderous intent in her cold eyes. …
Now Baozhuhua still smiled and said to Chen Yixin: "You must also know, Miss, that the 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Jiangbei Camp are designed to protect us from the Southern Miao people. At this time, the sergeants in the camp are mobilized to put out the fire at the General's Mansion. This will inevitably lead to an empty defense line in southern Xinjiang. If we take the opportunity to launch a large-scale invasion, the Jiangbei camp will inevitably fall into a passive position. In this case, not to mention the general's palace, the entire Jinling will be in danger."
After hearing this, Chen Yixin smiled slightly and said: "Your words are wrong. There are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Jiangbei camp? How many people can be used to put out a fire? It's just a drop in the bucket."
Baozhuhua heard this and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, but said nothing. Jin Yugua on the side couldn't help but said with disdain: "What one hundred thousand soldiers and horses?! Don't you know how many people there are in the camp?"
Chen Yixin was shocked and thought to herself: "Although the Jiangbei camp claims to have 100,000 soldiers and horses, there has been no war in southern Xinjiang since the war more than ten years ago. The imperial court is also worried about having too many troops on the border. It will inevitably be too big in the future. Therefore, the soldiers and horses in the camp were secretly withdrawn one after another, and they announced to the outside world that there were still 100,000 defenders. However, when the number was at its lowest, including the laborers who did laundry and cooking, the entire camp had less than 50,000 troops.
In recent years, the power of King Qi has grown day by day, and everyone in the court is his party. Seeing that he was self-respecting and ambitious, his father secretly recruited thousands of men as a precaution and claimed to be the bodyguards of the mansion. In fact, he incorporated them into the Jiangbei camp and trained them strictly according to the standards of sergeants every day to prepare them. When needed. Unexpectedly, the imperial court strictly inspected private soldiers. Although my father was a first-class marquis and a general protecting the country, the number of guards in the mansion could not exceed three thousand. In desperation, some men with poor quality had to be turned into militia warriors. As a result, although the numbers have been guaranteed, these militiamen have not received systematic training and have low military literacy. Moreover, due to the lack of military funding guarantee, their weapons and equipment are also extremely backward. The team of more than a thousand people is issued with armor, spears and other personal equipment. The rate is less than 40%. Such a team can only act as a feint attack or live bait to lure the enemy deep on the battlefield, and has no combat effectiveness at all.
At this time, the fire was raging in the mansion, and even if these stragglers were called in, it would probably have no effect. If you want to put out the fire quickly, you must mobilize the elite from the Jiangbei camp. As a result, the defensive strength of the southern Xinjiang defense line will be empty. If the enemy launches a large-scale attack, it will be difficult for our army to resist it. What is even more surprising is that although Baozhuhua and others are far away in southern Xinjiang, they are well aware of the troop deployment of the Jiangbei camp. This shows that the southern Miao people have been inquiring about our military movements for more than ten years, but we have been Being kept in the dark and unaware.
Thinking of this, Chen Yixin couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. She looked at the triumphant Jin Yugua in front of her, took a deep breath, and suddenly said sharply: "Why did General Jin say this? Could it be that you broke into our Jiangbei camp recently?" "
Jin Yugua was stunned and hurriedly defended: "Nonsense... nonsense! Your Jiangbei camp changes posts every two hours, and you have to change passwords at least twice every twelve hours a day. Not to mention that I am a southern Xinjiang person. Even if you are a local bumpkin, it’s not easy for you to sneak into the camp, let alone force your way in.”
Chen Yixin was stunned when she heard this, and said to herself: "Why did Jin Yugua suddenly start cursing people? After thinking about it, I immediately realized that Jin Yugua must have confused the two words "turtle" and "indigenous", which is really dumbfounding. However, He, a member of the Southern Miao ethnic group, actually knows the defense situation of the Jiangbei camp so well, which shows that there must be their spies among the sergeants of the camp."
Baozhuhua saw that Jin Yugua was talking freely, and was afraid that he would reveal more secrets. He hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss Chen is overly worried. Daxia and our southern Miao have always been friendly neighbors separated by a strip of water. More than ten years ago If it were not for the temptation of traitors, the two countries would not be at war with each other. A few of us took the liberty to visit today in order to meet with General Chen and convey our King Chiyue’s wish to forever marry the Qin and Jin Dynasties with Daxia. So, From now on, we will all be a family, so we need to be as close as possible."
Chen Yixin smiled in her heart: "It's so good to be so close. The price of closeness is to reveal all our military strength? We can't afford such closeness."
Baozhuhua also thought secretly: "I don't know what King Chiyue wrote in his letter? But I guess the king meant peace rather than war, so there is nothing wrong with what I said. Regardless of Chen Yixin's letter I still don’t believe it, at least now our wish is for both sides to live in peace. I believe that Chen Yixin is also a smart person. Given the current situation, she would not dare to easily turn against us Southern Miao people, otherwise the army on our border will take advantage of it. , and cooperate with the old man Tianqi internally and externally, their Jiangbei camp and even the entire Jinling may change hands."
Of course Chen Yixin understood this truth. When Bao Zhuhua pulled back the words, she walked down the slope and said with a smile: "That's very good. The top priority is to find ways to put out the fire quickly. Since we can't mobilize the people of the Jiangbei camp, I don't know what your envoy can do." Is there any clever idea that can help us?”
Although Chen Yixin seemed to be speaking to Bao Zhuhua, she kept looking at Jin Yugua with a smile.
Seeing this, Jin Yugua waved his hand and said: "You see, I'm of no use. Although you have a beautiful smile, there are only a few of us. There are two horsemen driving the carriage in the inn. How about I go and get them?" Call me to help you or do some work?"
Before he finished speaking, Jing Nian was already in front of Zhao Niantong and struck Zhao Niantong's chest with the "Buddha's Light" move. Zhao Niantong was on guard before he spoke. When he saw Jing Nian move, he jumped back and managed to avoid this move. Seeing that the blow missed, Jing Nian used his strength and stepped sideways again. His right hand changed from a palm to a grasp, and grabbed Zhao Niantong's neck.
Zhao Niantong was shocked and hurriedly exerted force on his waist and tilted his head back. Before Jing Nian could use the move, he lowered his forearm and hit Zhao Niantong's face directly with his right palm. At this time, Zhao Niantong's upper body was already hanging in the air and he had nowhere to hide, so he could only move his head desperately. Although the face was spared, the shoulder was hit by the palm.
When Pan Suxuan saw this, he swayed and snatched the long sword of a man in black. With his right arm extended, the long sword stabbed directly at the back of Jing Nian's heart. Jing Nian dodged and dodged. Pan Suxuan did not wait for him to stand firm. With a slight shake, the sword's edge turned into thousands of white lights, heading straight towards Jing Nian.
Jing Nian was shocked and said: "Qinglong Sword Technique?!" Pan Suxuan didn't say anything, moved his right foot forward, flicked his wrist, and struck Jing Nian's left shoulder from top to bottom.
Jing Nian was very fast and jumped back. Pan Suxuan stepped forward to catch up. Without stopping, the sword tip was sent forward, pointing directly at Jing Nian's lower abdomen.
Jing Nian did not dare to neglect, he quickly exhaled and contracted his abdomen, leaned back, jumped more than three feet away, pointed at Pan Suxuan with his hand and said: "You...where did you steal the sword technique from?"
Pan Suxuan used three swords in a row to force Jing Nian back. Taking advantage of this gap, Chen Mo had already lifted Zhao Niantong up and retreated to the broken wall. Pan Suxuan saw that Zhao Niantong's face was pale and his right shoulder was drooped, which showed that his collarbone was broken. Looking around, more than a dozen men in black have surrounded the four of them. If Nian Tong is not injured, the four of them will definitely be able to break out of the siege with all their strength. But now that Nian Tong is injured, one person still needs to take care of him. If you want to break out of the tight siege, your chances are as high as the sky.
Jing Nian saw Pan Suxuan frowning and said nothing, and sneered: "Even if you learn one and a half moves of the Qinglong Sword Technique, the sword technique is useless without the Qinglong Sword and Dragon Song Divine Technique. I advise you to surrender quickly and don't make any unnecessary resistance. The old monk is merciful and promises to keep your body intact."
Zhang Yi took a step forward and whispered to Pan Suxuan: "I'll hold them back, you go first." Pan Suxuan was stunned, shook his head and said: "No, Monk Jingnian is very powerful in martial arts, these men in black are not ordinary people, it's me. Work with Zhang Daxia to defend against the enemy, and let Mr. Chen cover Nian Tong’s retreat.”
Zhang Yi smiled and said: "Now it is impossible for us to escape unscathed. I have lived enough as an old bastard. You are still young and have not tasted many beautiful things in the world. Wouldn't it be a pity to die like this? Besides, if When it comes to fighting alone, I'm afraid I'm still better than you, and it's more than enough to deal with this Monk Jing Nian, just listen to me and leave quickly!"
After hearing this, Jing Nian laughed loudly and said: "None of you can even think of leaving! Today the old monk will stew you in a spoonful!" After speaking, he shrugged his shoulders, threw off the loose monk robe, revealing a short skirt, and pulled it out from behind. With a pair of stainless steel eyebrow thorns, he raised his hands and said loudly: "Will you come one by one or three of you together?"
Zhang Yi thought to himself, "In martial arts, a weapon is said to be stronger if it is an inch longer, and more dangerous if it is shorter than an inch. This old monk dares to use such a short weapon, so he must be very good at light kung fu. I need to be careful about him fighting at close range." Thinking like this. , with a single sword in his hand across his chest, in a "hiding sword pose" to guard against a surprise attack by Jing Nian.
