"The dangers of the snow peaks in the north barrier, the beauty of the five ridges in the south, the intersection of Zishui River, the intersection of Shao River, the continuous basins, and the undulating hills are a rare and good place. Zhuohou must cherish it." Meng Yan and others were in Zishui.

Xi'an looked at Shaoling opposite and sighed.

"Lao Zhuo is a brave man. In his eyes, Baoqing City is already in his pocket, and he will definitely cherish it." Ye Bohuai always remained as disappointed as ever.

"Shuai Ye is right. I, Zhuo Bailing, am a brave man. Shaoling is the last barrier connecting the Central Plains. Baoqing City has been heavily guarded by royal troops since ancient times. One Shaoling can be worth half of the Gu family.

Am I willing to let him go?" Zhuo Bailing was used to Ye Bohuai's language skills, so he said jokingly.

"Our Baize army has been coming to Wu since its departure from the southern border in July. We have won two battles in Lingling. The morale of the army is very high. This is not a good thing. Shaoling is different from Linwu and Lingling. Since ancient times, there have been three turns of Zishui and three cities.

It is known as "difficult". The Baoqing Mansion in front of us is a thousand-year-old county. To defeat it wisely, we must not destroy the efforts of our ancestors. Wugang City is at the junction of Wushui and Zishui. It is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

General Jin Qian led the partial division alone and has passed. Longdong City hangs over our heads. It lies on a high ground and is connected to the northern end of Zishui. Who do you think can take up this responsibility?" Meng Yan changed his past peacefulness and rarely exuded majesty.

the breath.

Everyone was not used to Meng Yan's changes for a while. At this time, only Ye Bohuai didn't care and said: "My lord, I thought that General Deng Gang who joined the army would be the main general, with General Yu Geng of Kaiyang Camp as the assistant, and the captain of Tianquan Camp Chaoqun Yinwu.

Thousands of soldiers formed the flanks, along with 2,000 naval troops from the Yuheng Camp and 3,000 warriors from the Yaoguang Camp, a total of 15,000 people marched into Longdong."

"Chao Qun? Is it credible?" Nie Huan asked doubtfully.

This is not a good person. Chaoqun is Zhuo Bailing's subordinate to Tianquan camp. When you say such questioning words, you are scolding people. It is Zhuo Bailing who is scolding. You must know that Zhuo Bailing is also a descendant. This is

As expected, Zhuo Bailing immediately retorted and said coldly: "Chief Lao Shi is worried. If Chao Qun can't be trusted, then just ask the Duke to kill me!"

"Uh, Zhuo Hou, I didn't mean that, I just..." Nie Huan knew that he had offended someone as soon as he said it. He wanted to explain, but Zhuo Bailing stopped him. They were all colleagues in the army. He understood what Nie Huan meant and was worried.

Chao Qun's ability to command the surrendered troops was just that Nie Huan was usually quite shrewd. How could he say such mindless words? He was on par with the topic-stopper Jin Qianyou.

"Zhuohou, let's do as Ye Shuai wants. I'm going to see Yu Geng." He had an unpleasant quarrel with Jin Qian about the Linwu incident and vowed not to have any contact with Jin Qian. Today, the generals will gather in Zishui.

Geng cited the cold as an excuse for not coming because he didn't want to see Jin Qian. Who knew that Jin Qian immediately led his troops and set off after receiving the military order to Wugang. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he still wanted to see this general under his command.

The first person to capture the flag.

After receiving the order, everyone returned to the camp. Only Ye Bohuai rode his horse upside down and followed Meng Yan, saying: "Okay, put away your majesty. It's okay to deal with small soldiers. These are all trusted generals.

Is it necessary? To show your attitude, you have to take time and occasion."

"What do you think about the matter between Yu Geng and Jin Qian? The two people obviously have different temperaments. Jin Qian is withdrawn and paranoid, while Yu Geng is humorous and tough. They are two completely different people. It will probably be difficult for them to cooperate in the future." Meng

Yan originally planned to use Yu Geng and Jin Qian as horns to stabilize the front army, but now it seems unlikely.

"It's a good idea. If the two of them can coexist harmoniously, they can both stabilize the front army and strengthen the flanking arms. However, you have hired the wrong person, and you are so hands-off with each battalion. Don't you just want them to be able to take charge of their own affairs?"

"Letting go does not mean indulgence. After taking Shaoling, I will make adjustments to them. In the army, I will be the leader, and I will establish the Secretary and Supervisor of the Baize Army. I will add divisional battalions in each battalion to strengthen military morale and the training of sergeants. They will not interfere during wartime."

The commander dispatches troops and generals; local officials under the jurisdiction of Bai Zejun are not allowed to put their official positions first. The wealthy families are equal to all the people, and their land is equal to support the people's livelihood." After saying this, Ye Bohuai glanced at Ye Bohuai and said warily: "You'd better not talk loudly and talk about everything.

explain."

"What are you going to do?!" Ye Bohuai was frightened by Meng Yan's idea. If this happened, he would definitely be risking the disapproval of the world. The commander of the army divided the general power, but all the battalions were unifying their thoughts. Meng Yan was not doing this.

In charge of the army, he is preaching, and he is preaching his own religion.

"Shuai Ye is afraid? The world will encounter great chaos every hundred years. Even in the prosperous times, the people can only wrap their bellies. What is the reason for this situation? Without him, the royal family is centralized and the aristocratic families are rampant. Whether it is cultural background, martial arts or...

All businesses are concentrated in the hands of a few people, and poor families rarely get ahead. How can the people not suffer? Why are we rebelling and establishing a country now? It is not to fight for power and profit and form a new situation controlled by aristocratic families. Our purpose is to enable the people of the world to

Getting rid of the enslavement of the aristocratic family will only enrich the warehouse." Meng Yan became more and more excited as he spoke.

For the first time, Ye Bohuai felt that Meng Yan was so scary. As he spoke these words, Ye Bohuai's inner clothes were soaked with cold sweat. He confirmed that Meng Yan had not seen Meng Zhao's theory, and Meng Zhao's information was also top secret in the Dark Night Guard.

, only a few people can see that when Meng Zhao rebelled, he proposed that "the ruler should be supported by all the people, and the ruler should be the ancestors of the people. A general should use soldiers as soldiers, and a general should support the people, and he should be supported by the people; as a general, he should serve the people."

The general should serve the soldiers, and the general should support the people, which is the most important thing for the people. Those who enforce the law should be independent, and the people should be peaceful regardless of whether they are generals or ministers.' Now Meng Yan's thoughts are so similar to these words. Is this a blood inheritance?

"Qianchen," this was the first name Ye Bohuai used to call Meng Yan, which was the highest respect among his peers. "Do you know that Xiao's practice of 'three powers and two prisons' is something that the world cannot tolerate, and

What's more, aren't you afraid of your own death and the annihilation of your family?"

"Haha, Mengshi has been tempered. Now you can see that he has stood up again. Besides, if Mengshi falls again, the people will definitely follow the footsteps we have walked and continue to move forward. Who can say

By that time, the Meng clan was exterminated. The reason why the Meng clan fell was because they were not strong enough. Now, although they are not strong enough to fight, they still have the power to fight." Meng Yan talked openly.

"Have you made up your mind? Do you have to take this road with no future?" Ye Bohuai said solemnly.

"The road is made by people. There is only a cloud of fog ahead, and there is a clear sky. There is no traffic, right?" Meng Yan was a little excited.

"You are responsible for the people, and I am responsible for the war. That's it. There is no shortage of heroes or fools in this world. What is lacking is heroic fools. You happen to be it. Heroes need green leaves to set off, and fools need doctors to move forward. I am willing to be you.

Green leaves and healers." Ye Bohuai made his choice without hesitation.

Cao Li in Baoqing City did not have the world-minded remarks of Meng Yan on the bank of Zishui. Some of them were just nervous, worried, and fearful. Cao Li kept pacing in the study of Shaoling Governor's Mansion, as if waiting for something like this

, the deputy general Feng You next to him was also restless. Neither of them spoke, but it was obvious that they were both very agitated.

Finally, a pigeon with something tied on it landed in front of the window. Maybe the pigeon was just tempted by the delicious food in front of the window. It didn't matter. Cao Li took off the pigeon and took the note to read, then he slumped down on the chair and closed his mouth.

With his eyes open, Feng You next to him took the note in Cao Li's hand in confusion and read it briefly before saying in shock: "Shao Ling is over?!"

"It seems that our only hope is Beiya. Is there still the letter from General Yuan?" Cao Li looked despairing.

"Is Yuan Changli's guarantee credible?" Feng You hesitated.

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, can Mr. Nangong still control it now? Yunmeng Tushan's attitude has always been very ambiguous with Xiao Huli. The Gu family has no time to take care of themselves, and now Meng Yan's army is pressing down on the territory, what should we do?

"Cao Li seems to have given up.

"We still have 50,000 people in our hands, so it's not impossible to fight, right?" Feng You still wanted to make a final struggle.

"Brother Feng, after Meng Yan went north, he won two battles and two victories. Everywhere he went, he was aware of everything. The sergeants did not disturb the people. The newly appointed officials everywhere came from poor families. Anyone who resisted from aristocratic families would be jailed and their homes ransacked. What's more important is that the members of this family

Meng Yan didn't want any of the land, and gave it all to those untouchables. Isn't this what the people in the city have been saying in the past few days?" Although Cao Li was unwilling to admit defeat, the defeat was already in front of him.

After listening to this, Feng You was unable to refute. What Cao Li said was indeed true. Meng Yan's behavior was also confirmed by the garrison sergeants. In fact, the entire Baoqing City was only one battle away from the disintegration of the army.

, "Surrender the city? I am not willing to do so!"

Cao Li shook his head and said: "It is not advisable to surrender the city. General Yuan means to abandon Baoqing, take away all the gold and silver in the city, burn all the food and grass in the city, leaving an empty city for Meng Yan, and then retreat to Fanghe.

Prefecture, and General Yuan will also send troops to Nanyang to put pressure on the Tushan clan and force Xiao Huli to negotiate."

"Brother Cao, if we do this, there will be no room for turning back. The people of Shaoling will hate us to death." Feng You reminded.

"Surrender to Meng Yan? Do you think Xiao Huli will reuse us or Meng Yan will reuse us?" Cao Li raised a fatal question. Both of them were involved in the extermination of the Xiao family and the Meng family rebellion. Nangong Buqi transferred them

One of the two people who came to preside over Shao Ling was that they had a grudge against the Xiao family.

"According to Brother Cao, Yuan Changli is our only chance?" Feng You was really unwilling to give in. He originally wanted to compete with Meng Yan, a so-called rising star, but the current situation simply did not allow it.

"Brother Feng, don't hesitate. Let's prepare separately. You go and gather the food and grass. Before Meng Yan's army besieges the city, we will retreat to Longdong first. We can only watch them fend for themselves in Wugang."
