Zhu Nao

This side Xie Wuji is intensively arranging military training, and the people in Yanzhou City who are sitting in the city of Yanzhou heard the news, they are very uneasy, fearing that he will lead troops to attack the city at any time, so they also stepped up the intensity of troop training, ready to go at any time Ready to fight.Coupled with the increasingly intensified internal conflicts of Xuantian Sect, the situation north of Xiaoguan became tense day after day.

……

In Yanzhou City, when Jiao Bie was training soldiers, a messenger hurried over, as if he had something to tell him.

Jiao Biejiao's soldiers were handed over to the lieutenant general temporarily, and he walked aside and asked, "What's the matter?"

The messenger said: "General Jiao, Shi Zhangqi is looking for you."

Jiao Bie thought there was something serious about it, but when he heard Shi An's name, he immediately became angry.He said angrily: "If he wants to look for it, let him look for it. Tell me what to do!" He waved his hands and went back to continue training.

However, not long after, Jiao Bie was directing the army to change formation, when he heard footsteps behind him, he turned his head and saw that it was Shi An who led the people over.

Jiao Bie didn't want to pay attention to him, and continued to do his own thing.Shi An waited on the side for a while, but he lost his patience and walked over directly.

"General Jiao, General Jiao!" He stood behind Jiao Bie and patted Jiao Bie on the shoulder. Face and Shi An walked aside.

"What's the matter with Shi Zhangqi?" Jiao Bie had a stern face, his voice was so stiff that every word was like a stone, and he smashed a hole in the ground as soon as he uttered it.

Shi An asked impatiently: "General Jiao, the enemy is at hand now, and we should not be underestimated. Didn't we agree to train together? Why do you always practice on your own without me? When Xie Wuji's army comes over, just you Can you live in Yanzhou?"

Jiao don't hear that he still has the face to say this, it's really embarrassing to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.

You must know that although he joined the Xuantian Sect, it does not mean that he and the Xuantian Sect are one.The more people there are, the easier it is to split into various factions, especially for a half-way monk like him, it is impossible for him to completely agree with the people of Xuantian Sect.

He surrendered to Xuantian Sect for personal benefit, so he would never hand over his own people to Xuantian Sect to manage, but only wanted to use the power of the sect to expand his power.But Henry Zhang wanted to gnaw down his strength, and the purpose of sending Shi An was exactly that.

In the past few months, Shi An has been racking his brains to infiltrate his own hands into Jiao Bie's army, and Jiao Bie has been deliberately trying not to let Shi An put his hands into his own nest, and by the way, get some money from Xuantian Sect. Some benefits.When Zhu Nao didn't come, there was no major conflict between the two sides. Although each had their own ghosts, they lived in peace.

But now, with the enemy at hand, Jiao Bie is indeed short of manpower. Shi An took this opportunity to propose that the Xuantian Sect's army and Jiao Bie's Yanzhou Army should jointly train to fight the enemy together, but in reality, they were making small moves in secret. , I want to achieve the purpose of overhead power through the reorganization of the army.

Jiao Bie really had enough, completely enough!What he really cares about now is not that bit of power, but his own life! !

What a terrifying opponent Xie Wuji is?Plus Junau, is this still a joke? ?As long as Xie Wuji is willing to say that he will not kill him if he loses, he will immediately hand over this mess to Xuantianjiao, there will be no second words!

The problem is, if Yanzhou falls, he will definitely die, Xie Wuji can't let him live softly.He had no choice but to bite the bullet and prepare for the battle, against his former master.

If there are any unrivaled talents in the Xuantian Sect, it is not impossible to let him hand over the military power.The problem is not to mention talents, how can there be anyone in the cult who knows how to fight?The so-called cult army, looking at the large number of people, is nothing more than a group of bandits composed of mobs.It’s okay to bully and bully the common people. If you really want to fight a well-trained army, it’s like a rabbit fighting a tiger, and you’re looking for your own death!

Jiao Bie looked like he didn't want to tell Shi Anduo, and said coldly: "Shi Zhangqi, your subordinates and mine have different fighting habits, and it's difficult to cooperate with each other. Why don't you train your own."

After he was about to turn his head and go back, Shi An quickly stopped him: "Don't go, General Jiao, I haven't finished my words yet, what's your attitude?"

Jiao Bie was like a string, and the regret, pressure, fear, and resentment of the past few days... had stretched him to the extreme.Being dragged by Shi An, with a bang, it broke.

He shook his hand violently and pushed Shi An out.Caught off guard, Shi An took several steps back and almost fell on his back, but fortunately he was supported by the people around him in time.Before he could recover, Jiao Bie pointed at his nose and started cursing.

"What's my attitude? What should my fucking attitude be? Shi, do you know what the situation is?! Every day, every day, people flee the city to join Xie Wuji and Zhu Nao!! If this continues, all of us Everyone is going to die!! Will your army, which is worse than shit, know how to fight? If so, I will give you the city to guard!!"

Everyone was frightened by his sudden outburst, the Xuantian disciples were the first to react, and immediately became angry: actually calling them worse than shit?Why!

However, before everyone could attack, Shi An quickly raised his hand to stop them.Being pushed and scolded again, of course he won't be in a good mood.But he received a letter from Henry Zhang a few days ago, asking him to comfort Jiao Bie.After all, if you want to defend Yanzhou now, you can only count on Jiaobie.

Shi An apologized and said with a smile: "General Jiao may have misunderstood. No one in Yanzhou knows the war better than General Jiao, so naturally they all listen to you. I'm just afraid that you don't have enough manpower, so I want to give you some more manpower." .” The implication is that at least in the matter of commanding the troops, he temporarily gave up fighting with Jiao Bie.

Jiao Bie was still disgusted.Even if Shi An gave him his army, he still didn't want it.The army of rubbish was brought over, afraid of ruining their good team!

Jiao Bie turned his head and walked back, Shi An hurriedly chased after him: "General Jiao, you just said that people defect to the enemy every day?"

Jiaobie said viciously, "Don't you know?"

Since Xie Wuji's arrival, Jiao Bie has ordered the city to be sealed off, and ordinary people are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving, so as to prevent the enemy from sneaking into the city and his own traitors from escaping.But the order is one thing, and the actuality is quite another.Recently, there have been frequent incidents of common people escaping from the city mixed in with the supplies transport team, and ordinary soldiers fleeing through the city gates. It is obvious that the hearts of the people have gone in the direction of Zhu Nao and Xie Wuji.

Jiao Bie couldn't figure it out: Zhu Nao and Xie Wuji were originally two people from different camps combined, how could they integrate so well?From the Central Plains to Liangzhou and then to Yanzhou, they were able to stay close all the time.How much ability and how consistent tacit understanding this requires the commander in chief!

Shi An also couldn't figure it out: They always captured people's hearts wherever they went, so what kind of ability did Zhu Nao have, how could he steal people's hearts away?

But when it comes to fighting Shi'an, it's really not good. He still has some experience in sowing discord and deceitful techniques.He pulled Jiao away and said: "General Jiao, although I haven't read military books, I know that soldiers are not tired of deceit. Since there are always people going to join the enemy recently, why don't we just take this opportunity to put our people there and give them the next blow?" Set, let them drill?"

Jiao Bie paused.Send someone to swindle surrender?

This is a way, but if you really want to do this, you must find someone who is very loyal to yourself and reliable in doing things.More importantly, this person has to be willing to risk his life. After all, this kind of mission is very dangerous. Once exposed, he will definitely die.

But Jiao Bie was a rebel general, and his subordinates, that is, the Yanzhou Army, were all Xie Wuji's subordinates.Even Jiao Bie himself was still in awe of Xie Wuji, let alone his subordinates?Turning around, the fake surrender turned into a real defection, and it became a joke within a joke.

Is there anyone who is so loyal that he can absolutely trust?Yes, but very rarely.

Thinking of this, Jiao Bie subconsciously looked at the person on the field who was directing the training on his behalf - standing there was his lieutenant general, Cui Cheng.

……

After a stick of incense, the training came to an end, and Cui Cheng walked off the field.

"General, what did Shi An tell you just now?" Cui Cheng asked.

Jiao Bie watched him hesitate to speak.

Seeing this, Cui Cheng vaguely felt that it was related to him, but he couldn't think of what it could be, so he couldn't help being very puzzled.

Jiao Bie shook his head and said, "Let's go, go back and rest first."

The two disbanded the army and walked back to the mansion.

Halfway on the way, Jiao Bie suddenly stopped in his tracks, hesitating, "I...just now...ah."

Cui Cheng is the person he trusts the most and also his most capable subordinate, he doesn't want to send Cui Cheng to feign surrender.After Cui Cheng left, there was no capable person around him.But in the current situation, he really couldn't think of any other way to defeat Xie Wuji and Zhu Nao,

Cui Cheng frowned slightly, straightened his back and said, "Please tell me, General."

Jiao Bie finally opened his mouth, staring at the ground: "Shi An suggested to me that I can send someone to Xie Wuji to feign surrender. Now that the enemy is strong and we are weak, only by making him fall for the trick can I have the possibility of turning defeat into victory. "

Cui Cheng was slightly taken aback, thought for a moment, and said, "Is this the only way now?"

Jiao Bie nodded with a wry smile.

Cui Cheng hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help asking: "General, until now...do you regret it?"

Jiao Bie frowned fiercely.When he colluded with Xuantian Sect, Cui Cheng once persuaded him to believe that Xie Wuji would bring troops back to rescue Yanzhou.But at that time, he was blinded, he didn't listen to Cui Cheng's advice, but believed in Xuantianjiao's rhetoric.

Does he regret it?Nonsense, my intestines are full of regrets!There is not a day without regrets!but……

"What's the use of regretting?" Jiao Bie gritted his teeth, "I've already killed Xie Wuji's beloved general and robbed him of Yanzhou City. Will he forgive me if I kneel in front of him and beg him? Impossible. !"

Cui Cheng's expression was complicated, he hesitated to speak.After all, he swallowed all the other words, and only said: "If this can save the general's life, then I am willing to feign surrender. What to do is up to the general's orders."

Hearing his answer like this, Jiao Bie was both relieved and reluctant, and in the end he slowly spoke out the strategy he had just thought up.

By the time they finished speaking, the two of them had already arrived near their residence, and it was time to go back separately.

Jiao Bie said: "You go back and rest first. I will call you to discuss after I have drawn up all the plans."

"Okay." Cui Cheng saluted, turned and left.He walked more than ten steps away, when Jiao Bie suddenly stopped him from behind.

"Ah Cheng." Jiao Bie spoke a little faster than usual, and he could hear his uneasiness and apprehension, "You will not betray me, will you?"

Cui Cheng turned around, stared into Jiao Bie's eyes, and said, "Yes."

Jiao Bie's eyes became more and more urgent, as if he was seeking proof of something.

"Although I also admire General Xie, but over the years, you have promoted me, you have cultivated me, and you have been born and died with me." Cui Cheng looked serious, "I will not betray you."

Jiao Bie finally nodded slowly and said, "Okay. Go and rest."

Cui Cheng saluted again and left.

=====

rich county.

The 4000 people have assembled and lined up neatly in the open space, with their bags neatly packed and ready to go.

Zhu Jiao led the horse and stood on a higher ground to inspect the whole army.From now on, these 4000 people are her army, they defend her territory, and she is responsible for their life, death and living law.

Zhu Jiao's hand holding the rein of the horse trembled slightly.She closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, turned her head, and saw Xie Wuji standing not far behind her.

Today she was going to lead the troops back to Qingyang, Zhu Nao didn't come out to see them off because he had something to do, but Xie Wuji himself sent them out because he wanted to preside over the order of the barracks.

Xie Wuji raised his head to look at the sun, and said calmly: "Let's go as soon as possible, otherwise we won't be able to make it before dark."

Zhu Jiao was in a very complicated mood.

For Xie Wuji, she has always had a resentment in her heart.Back then, the reason why she came to Fu County to marry Xie Wuji was just to change Qingyanghou's decision.But after meeting each other, she realized that Xie Wuji was young and promising, and his appearance was so handsome.She was originally a young girl in love, how could she not feel poetic when facing such a handsome face?

It's a pity that for every inch of her mind, Xie Wuji can beat her back by a foot.Up to now, she didn't dare to think about it, and she couldn't think about it anymore.

She ordered to the subordinates beside her: "Let's go, let's go."

Her subordinates immediately sent an order to go down, and the four thousand Qingyang soldiers turned around and prepared to go on the road.

Zhu Jiao also got on the horse, but she didn't leave immediately, she pulled the rein of the horse and turned around in a small circle, and turned her eyes to Xie Wuji again.

"……Hey."

Xie Wuji raised his eyelids and looked at her.

Zhu Jiao thought that she had already given up thinking that she shouldn't have, but the girl's arrogance and unwillingness coupled with a little curiosity made her unable to help asking before leaving: "General Xie, in your life, you really don't plan to Marry a wife and have children?"

Xie Wuji's eyes moved, but he didn't answer.

"Don't get me wrong." Zhu Jiao explained immediately, and then her voice dropped, "Don't you feel lonely when you don't have anyone around you to share with you?" This is also the life she will experience in the future.

"some."

"What?" Zhu Jiao was taken aback, and it took a long time to realize what Xie Wuji had just answered her.

--some?Is there someone who can share, or do you feel lonely?

Xie Wuji was silent for a while, and said: "Xie knows that he has a weak temper and doesn't like others. Miss Zhu, I have offended you a lot these days, please forgive me."

Zhu Jiao was stunned for a while before realizing that Xie Wuji might have seen through her unreasonable intentions, she immediately felt ashamed, wishing she could gallop away immediately.But she couldn't bear her curiosity, so she continued to ask: "Do you have someone who can share the burden for you? Who is it? Have you already married a wife? In the military camp, or in the south of the Yangtze River?"

The corner of Xie Wuji's mouth twitched slightly, as if he smiled very shallowly.But he shook his head and didn't say much.

He said, "Let's go, be careful on the road."

Zhu Jiao: "..."

Even when it was time for parting, Xie Wuji was still so puzzled.She snorted secretly, stopped entanglement, and galloped her horse towards the army that had already set off.

The horse galloped against the wind, and the strong wind blew on her face, making it a little painful, just to blow away the troubles in her heart.

She secretly poked her stomach and said: In this world, people and affairs always change one thing after another, but she just doesn't believe that Xie Wuji can go on like this forever.I just hope that the person who subdued him will show up soon, and make him suffer a little more, so as to vent the anger in my heart for myself!
