king array

Hanzhong is surrounded by the Qinling Mountains in the north and the Ba Mountains in the south. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The Hanzhong Basin is rich in products and has been called the Land of Abundance since its inception.However, with the addition of such superior geographical conditions, it will naturally become a battleground for military strategists. If it is a stable and prosperous age, it is okay, but when it is a time of troubled times, it will be a piece of fat that everyone misses.

Qingping Mountain is nothing more than a thin nail on the edge of the Qianliwo Plain in the Hanzhong Plain, and it is not even qualified to be seen. Therefore, Hanzhong has never had any contact with Qingping Mountain. Seriously.

Fortunately, the soldiers are attacking the city, why would you think of asking them for help?

The banquet continued, Zhong Lishan left the banquet hall with Ling Xun Wang Da and others, and found a quiet side hall to meet Hanzhong's envoy.

"General Zhongli, the villain is a general of the Hanzhong state government. He came to ask for help under the order of the state shepherd. Chen Bing's heart of a tiger and a wolf is trying to annex the western states. I also hope that the general will give a helping hand because Qingping Mountain and Hanzhong are closely related. !"

The envoy from Hanzhong called Zhong Lishan a general, which shows his flattery. The mountain bows.

Ling Xun watched coldly, but doubts arose in his heart.

Although Hanzhong is adjacent to Liangzhou in distance, it is blocked by the Qinling Mountains. If Chen Bing wants to leave Liangzhou and go straight to the Central Plains, he will not be out of his mind to fight Hanzhong. He must go east, which is why he went straight in before. The land of Gyeonggi.

Thinking of this, he asked the question.

When the emissary heard this, he gritted his teeth and said angrily, "What your lord said is exactly right. I and those wolves in the northwest of Hanzhong were not in conflict with each other, but I don't know which god damn villain spread the rumor that there is a king hidden in our Hanzhong." The gods know that the king's formation is a bird, and when Chen Bing got the news, he came to attack the city like a mad dog and said that if the state shepherd didn't hand over the king's formation, Hanzhong would be flattened! Now Chen Bing's army is fighting There are formation masters who have besieged our Hanzhong for more than a month, and the food and grass in the city have been cut off. Those formation masters all have sorcerer's skills. My [-] troops in Hanzhong are nothing in their eyes..."

Ling Xun frowned slightly.

It's King's Formation again.

What the hell is this king formation, everyone wants him, could it be that if you really get the king formation, you can be the lord of the world?

Zhong Lishan didn't respond after listening for a while, and didn't know what he was thinking about.

It was Wu Qing who spoke first: "Since Hanzhong's [-] troops are invincible, what use are our hundreds of people in Qingpingshan? Master Zhou must be in a hurry to go to the doctor."

"Although there are no soldiers in Qingping Mountain, but..." the envoy from Hanzhong raised his eyes and took a peek at Mu Jiu, "I heard that Qingping Mountain hides an expert in formation techniques. There is a turning point!"

Wu Qing's complexion changed, he looked at Mu Jiu and Ling Xun coldly, and stopped talking with a cold snort.

Ling Xun actually already had some thoughts in his mind, but he knew that he shouldn't speak at this time, so he didn't say anything anymore. As for Mu Jiu, Yuan Xi and others, they didn't even express their opinions. For a while, everyone in the room His eyes fell on Zhongli Shan.

"Come here, take the Hanzhong envoy down first so that you can rest." Zhong Lishan finally said.

"General..."

"This matter is of great importance, we have to discuss it." Zhong Lishan waved his hand, stopping the Hanzhong envoy from continuing to speak, with a firm attitude.

The messenger had no choice but to bow and retreat.

As soon as the envoy left, several leaders of Qingping Mountain couldn't hold back, and Wang Da immediately scolded: "Why is your face so big? Although the Hanzhong State Shepherd never made trouble for us openly, he did it secretly. Tripzi, when the capital was under martial law, we had supplies to buy from Liangzhou, and we refused to borrow their way back, but when something goes wrong, we are the first to think of us! Save me!"

"That's right! Don't save him! Let Chen Bing decapitate that bumbling Hanzhong old man!"

It is rumored that Hanzhong State Shepherd is addicted to drinking and sex, cowardly and immoral, the boss is old, spoils concubines and kills wives at home, sells officials and nobles outside, and governs a good Hanzhong into a mess. There are many bandits on Qingping Mountain who escaped from Hanzhong. Few people didn't have a good impression of him, and they all clamored to die without saving him, and wanted to see the Hanzhong State Shepherd's joke.

"Brother Feng, what do you think?" Zhong Lishan asked Ling Xun at this moment.

Ling Xun said bluntly: "I think Hanzhong should be saved."

Zhong Lishan: "Oh? Why?"

"Although Qingping Mountain is small, it is closely related to Hanzhong. Although the lord of Hanzhong is incompetent, a weak neighbor is worse than a strong wolf. This Hanzhong will be lost sooner or later. If Chen Bing replaces it, Hanzhong will definitely be used as a camp in the future. If we violate Qingping Mountain, we will be in danger at that time, so it is better to send troops to help this time, and put forward some conditions so that we can take Hanzhong by ourselves in the future."

"What? You mean, we can take Hanzhong in the future?" Zhong Lishan was slightly surprised.

Ling Xun laughed, "Why, is Brother Zhongli willing to be trapped in this little Qingping Mountain for the rest of his life?"

Zhong Lishan stopped talking.

The eyes of the bandit leaders headed by Wang Da suddenly brightened.

"Yes! Master Feng is right! We should send troops!"

"Yeah, after we drive those Northwestern wolves away, we'll take Hanzhong down! Hanzhong is a huge territory, much more spacious than our Qingping Mountain!"

Seeing that the bandits became more and more excited as they talked, Wu Qing poured cold water on him and said, "I'm afraid that if you steal chickens, you will lose a lot of rice and end up covered in chicken shit. Who is Chen Bing? What kind of force is the Northwest Army? Although we have several formations here But don't forget, the team of formation masters under Chen Bing's command is not free!"

Wu Qing specially emphasized the word "array master" a little more, showing a sense of sarcasm.

"What is their array mage? We have Mr. Mu sitting here!" A bandit leader objected.

"That's right, how many people in the world can match Mr. Mu's array skills?"

Zhong Lishan is not mediocre, although he has never been familiar with the art of war, he understands what it means to be cold-hearted. If Chen Bing captures Hanzhong, they will not have a good life, so his heart is moved, and he is about to ask Ling Xun again. The formation master helped Hanzhong, how sure of winning, but suddenly heard Mu Jiu speak.

"Actually, sending troops to Hanzhong has one more benefit to Qingping Mountain."

"Mr. Mu, what benefits are you referring to?" the bandits asked.

Mu Jiu raised his eyes, staring at the bandits with his black eyes, and spoke loudly with a few words: "Send troops to serve as soldiers, and you will no longer be bandits from now on."

Now that the world is in ruins, why some pavilion chiefs and corporals can stand on their own with a team of more than a dozen people, but there are so many bandits in Qingping Mountain, but they still can't get rid of the word "bandit"?

If the name is not correct, the words will not ring true.Zhou Mu was appointed by the imperial court. Since he sent troops at the invitation of Zhou Mu, he was famous as a teacher. Since then, he has a regular banner, which is enough to take off the hat of bandit, and he can stand on his own as a powerful party that cannot be despised.

The gangsters in Qingping Mountain naturally didn't understand this kind of political trickery, but Mu Jiu's words seemed to ignite their blood.

Which man is willing to live with a gangster name?Those Qingping mountain bandits who fell into bandits back then were also from good families. They were so squeezed that they couldn't survive, so they had to take this road. of.However, if one day he can become a soldier, with the reputation of fighting with a long sword, even if he dies, he can be called a hero!Guangzong Yaozu, be a good boy who stands up to the sky, who would not?

"That's right, if we accept the Hanzhong State Shepherd this time, we will be able to establish a legitimate title in the future, recruit troops from abroad, attack cities and conquer territories, and see who dares to underestimate us!" Some bandits with quick brains immediately reacted and understood Mu Jiu's proposal This point, the deep meaning behind it.

"As expected of Mr. Mu, we savages who study can't think of this."

Some people even patted their chests and said: "Mr. Mu, as long as you are willing to go to Hanzhong to support, I will go with you without saying a word!"

"Yes! I'll go with you too!"

"And me, my brothers are also willing to go with you!"

The bandits were very enthusiastic, and they had the intention of leaving for Hanzhong immediately to beat Chen Bing back to his grandma's house.

Zhong Lishan looked at his brothers, and suddenly felt some emotion in his heart.He knows these brothers best, they are all rough people, they have always regarded reading as bullshit, looking at scholars is like looking at weak chickens, when did they say "you deserve to be scholars"?

It's only been a few months, what kind of ability does this Mu Jiu have to make these brothers who have been with him in the wind and rain willing to risk their lives to follow?

"It's too late today, let's talk about it tomorrow." Zhong Lishan closed his eyes and said a little tiredly.

All the mountain bandits were discussing about it, but they were all stunned by Zhong Lishan's words.

Zhong Lishan ignored them, left and went back to his residence.

Seeing Zhong Lishan leave, Wu Qing followed him out. Just as he reached the door, he suddenly saw a sneaky figure approaching him.

"Second leader! You have to persuade the first leader!! Don't let him agree to support Hanzhong! If he agrees, then the surname Mu and the surname Feng must take this opportunity to recruit another formation master. The Dharma Academy will also be opened. When the formation masters become bigger, our Qingping Mountain can still control them? Is the owner of Qingping Mountain surnamed Zhongli or Feng?"

"I see." Wu Qing said to the man with a sullen face, and quickly chased after Zhong Lishan.

The person who spoke didn't dare to follow, and retreated secretly again. When he passed by a torch swaying in the wind, his face was shaken brightly, it was Wang Qi whose arm had been injured by Mu Jiu.

Wang Qi knew very well that he had no skills, only one mouth was useful.So when those formation masters who had made friends with Master Huang left Qingping Mountain, he did not follow, but found a new backer for himself, that is, Wu Qing.He knew that Wu Qing hated formation masters, so he made use of this to make a big fuss, and gave Wu Qing a lot of advice on weekdays, so Wu Qing was instigated by him to go to Zhongli Mountain to find trouble with Ling Xun.

As long as Zhongli Mountain is still the owner of Qingping Mountain, and Wu Qing is the second in charge, he will have a mouthful of food. As for the future of Qingping Mountain, what does he do?Today's world is difficult, and every day counts as a day.Anyway, as long as people who don't like him don't like it, he can have a good life.

Wang Qi held his hands in his sleeves and sucked his nose. Standing at the door, he looked at Ling Xun and the others in the room from a distance, narrowing his eyes slightly, showing a bad look.

Zhong Lishan left, and the others had to go back separately, but Ling Xun didn't go back to his yard directly, but came to find Mu Jiu, and the first thing he said in person was: "You don't want Brother Zhongli to send troops to help Hanzhong?"

Mu Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh? Why did my lord ask such a question?"
