At the foot of Luofu Mountain, the flames on Buquanmu's body were burning, red,
The fire beast (fire rat) weighing hundreds of pounds is bathed in the flames, playing happily.
The scorching flames not only prevent the fire beasts (fire rats) from being injured, but also make the long red brocade hairs on their bodies smooth and bright.
However, as long as the fire beast (fire rat) burst out with flames, the long hair on its body will immediately become snow-white and the whole body will be flawless.
The ghosts responsible for collecting the fur of the fire beasts, and used food to calm the fire beasts that burst out of endless wood. They used scissors to cut off their beautiful and bright hairs and collected them, and sold them to the fire cloth.
Go to the textile factory.
In recent years, the Huohuanbu business in Jiuyou Country has been doing well.
Firewashing cloth is sold overseas and is dominant in the underworld.
It is all because of the unique geographical advantage of raising fire beasts in the Luofu Mountain area. Fire beasts feed on flames in endless woods, with strong and bright fur, so the woven fire cloth is naturally made of.
In addition to the responsibility of protecting the safety of this place, the garrison on Luofu Mountain also has another responsibility, which is to protect the fire beasts here from poaching, and also allow the fire cloth of Jiuyou Kingdom to be continuously weaved and sold overseas, so that
The treasury is full.
The garrisons in the area defended this place, and the fire beasts lived in this place were never poached.
The soldiers stationed here are therefore more good at defense and are not very good at mountain search and guerrilla warfare.
The rebels who were wiped out and flew away from the mountains, the army under the command of the ghost captives could only help and assist from the side. This is also the reason why Wu Xiaohui was sent here.
He will serve as the main attacker with his soldiers.
Wu Xiaohui, who was sitting in the military government office on the mountain, took a few sips of tea to moisten his throat, and said to the ghost captain: "Uncle, you have thought very carefully, so I will be much more relaxed."
The ghost captain smiled and waved his hand, indicating that Wu Xiaohui didn't have to be so polite, then frowned, stared at the floor tiles under his feet, and said thoughtfully: "But there is one thing that Shi Ben and I feel very much."
Confused."
"Oh?" Wu Xiaohui frowned slightly, and his focused eyes fell on the ghost captain opposite him.
"This rebellion came suddenly, giving people the feeling of hasty action. Moreover, the enemy's combat power is very weak." The ghost captain locked his eyebrows a little longer and continued to say thoughtfully: "I follow my lord for more than ten times.
It's been 2019, and I have encountered rebellions from all over the country seven or eight times. I have led my troops to encircle and suppress the rebels more than three times. I have never seen a rebel with such weak combat power."
"Almost all of them are about to collapse at once." At this time, Shi Ben took the speech and said with a solemn look on his face: "The weapons in his hand are behind, and some rebels even hold wooden sticks and hoes."
When Wu Xiaohui heard this, he also frowned and his eyes gradually showed a confused look.
Indeed, this situation is very strange. Even if the rebels have many mobs, their weapons will not be so backward.
Wu Xiaohui was also confused about this and couldn't figure it out.
At the same time, the ghost captor spoke again and said ashamed: "They can't fight, they run away very quickly. I was afraid of fraud, so I didn't dare to chase them deeply. Instead, I gave the rebels a chance to escape into the mountains and have time to make up the matter.
It's zero."
However, this was not something that the ghost captain wanted to do on purpose. At that time, the enemy retreated very quickly, and the ghost captain did this as the best way to deal with it.
Before you know the enemy's true purpose, you will rashly go deep into the mountains and forests to pursue them, and you will be most likely to be ambushed by the enemy. Be cautious and careful, and you will be careful and have no big mistakes.
"So Xiaohui, you must be extra cautious when entering the mountain to encircle and suppress the enemy." After a pause, the ghost captor reminded Wu Xiaohui again: "No matter what, you can't act voluntarily, you can be conservative and not radical."
After listening carefully to the advice of his senior uncle, Wu Xiaohui nodded heavily and responded. He also kept the ghost captive's explanation in mind.
"Xiao Hui, how many people have you brought?" At this time, Shi Ben asked again.
"A battalion of soldiers." Wu Xiaohui said without reservation.
For the soldiers trained by Wu Xiaohui, one enemy of ten are everywhere in his army. They are also elite soldiers who are good at sneak attacks, guerrilla warfare, blocking the enemy, and surviving and searching in the mountains and forests.
One battalion of troops is enough.
"Well, then we can only wipe out the rebels one by one." Shi Ben said this after thinking for a moment.
"Yes, I originally planned that way." Wu Xiaohui nodded and said, "But, I want to capture a few of them alive and take them back, and leave them to the Chachasi to investigate the real purpose behind them."
Guilu and Shi Ben thought silently for a moment, nodding in agreement with Wu Xiaohui's proposal.
There are many strange things about this rebellion, which has made the local supreme military commanders Gui Lu and Shi Ben, two veterans who have been through the battlefield, confused.
Wu Xiaohui's proposal is the key to unlocking these doubts.
It also coincides with the planning of Lin Cong and Xuan Sect in Yuque Palace.
"Come on, Xiao Hui." The ghost barbarian said this, stood up and walked towards the wall on the right side of the lobby.
There is a large map one meter high hanging on the wall, and the huge map is almost covered with a whole wall. The detailed landscape geography is outlined on the map at Hehuangdao, and the mountains and rivers of the southern part of Xuanyanzhou are all
The topography and landforms are clearly presented in the eyes of the ghosts in front of the map.
After Wu Xiaohui stood up and took heavy steps, the stone Ben, who had trembling slightly on the ground, walked over, Guilu picked up the straight bamboo pole standing in the corner of the wall, and pointed at the map one by one.
, a big mountain in the southwest of the Luofu Mountains area said: "Light Hui, according to the information, most of the enemy troops fled far away and entered this place."
Wu Xiaohui looked closely and saw that the top of the mountain painted on the map was covered with clouds and mist. A long river winds through the mountain and rivers also have tributaries. It passes through the mountains and divides the mountain into two, like a yin and yang fish.
generally.
Wu Xiaohui, who worked and fought in the southern region, is also very familiar with the terrain and geography of the place. He immediately did not look at the small annotations on the map. He just looked at the location of the mountains on the map, and blurted out and said, "Yunling.
”.
"Yes, the guide I prepared for you is also familiar with the ghosts here. The rebels chose Yunling as their retreat destination, and they also have a strong purpose." The ghost captain who nodded continued: "In the Circle of Eight, the eighth one in the square radius."
In the Yunling Mountains, there are many strange peaks under the pine waves. The cliffs are tall and straight, and there are countless rugged rocks and rocks in various shapes. Such complex terrain takes up all the ambush or guerrillas.
The right time and place. A large army enters the mountains on a large scale and encircle and suppresses, and may encounter enemy blocking where tens of thousands of men are left. This will cause great casualties and injuries. In addition, the mountains are full of ghosts and mists, making it difficult to see the top of the mountain and the true appearance of the mountain, so it is inconvenient to march
, It is also extremely difficult to transfer materials to the mountains, so all I can do now is to surround the mountains. Going into the mountains and siege and suppress them, and you have to rely on you."
As soon as they finished speaking, the ghost barbarians and Shi Ben turned their heads together, and looked at Wu Xiaohui at the same time, and looked at Wu Xiaohui with expectation. The two of them placed their hopes of entering the mountains and encirclement and suppression on Wu Xiaohui's
Body...
Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, at the foot of the eastern foot of Qingqiu Mountain, far away from the downtown area, there is a building complex composed of rectangular courtyards, with four courtyards in front and back.
The palaces and houses in the courtyard are extremely luxurious. The materials used in gold and jade make everything in the courtyard. When it is not rainy, bathing in the cloudy sun is so dazzling and dazzling.
The beams and wood used in the houses are also colorful jade trees, which are solid and gorgeous. Even the bricks are filled with green mud and soil, making every house in the East China, where rainy rains are rainy, not
As for the leakage and ventilation situation.
All the halls have yellow glazed tiles on the top of the mountain. The front eaves open the door, the second eaves have a sill window, and the rear eaves are indirectly connected to the back eaves. The space and masks are very wide, not crowded, and majestic.
Spectacular.
So many materials for the upper and lower materials, and the gorgeous materials were collected from countless people's fat and paste to build this courtyard mansion.
Even the pair of nine-tailed fox stone sculptures that were half a meter tall at the door were not mediocre. They were a whole huge piece of white jade carved out.
The guards inside and outside the courtyard were tightly guarded. You could see guards at fixed posts and patrols back and forth everywhere.
This is the heir of the future ghost king of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom. The current residence of the crown prince of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom and the crown prince Hu Qingping - Tai**.
Hu Qingping lived here in the past.
In fact, unless you go to the Slender Ma family that Hu Qingping wants to raise, you basically live in Taizhao at other times.
When he was sixteen years old, his father, King Qingqiu of Fox, deposed the crown prince and established the young Fox as the crown prince of the Fox Kingdom. He then built this palace palace for the prince of the Fox Kingdom, Hu Qingping, of the Qingqiu of Fox Kingdom, to live in the residence.
.
To this day, Hu Qingping has lived here for a hundred years.
He is already familiar with every grass, every brick and tile here.
Today, it is raining continuously, and heavy rain continues to slap in the Hu Qingping Taizhao.
The rain water moistened the ground roof, bringing out a burst of rich yin energy, and the slight coldness scattered in the rain and fog.
Hu Qingping was wearing a gray-white robe and stood with his hands behind his back. He stood in front of the main hall door, staring at the darkness brought by the drooping dark clouds. The water curtains kept falling from the eaves in front of him were stunned.
The crystal clear water droplets formed a water curtain and hung upside down, making Hu Qingping not very clear about everything in the courtyard outside the water curtain.
Just like now, he is in the battle situation in Dongyingzhou, he can't see anything clearly.
Logically speaking, his plan should have completely paralyzed the troops of the Jiuyou Kingdom in the Dushuo Mountain area and lost a lot of combat power under the plague.
However, the information Hu Qingping obtained was that Dushuo Mountain trained troops twice a day. In the early morning and evening, the high-pitched shouts of train soldiers could shake the sky and the earth in the rain.
Although the spies from the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom did not dare to approach Dushuo Mountain rashly to check, they listened to the shouts that could be heard in the wind and rain ten miles away, and they judged that Dushuo Mountain was as usual and that the garrison was not paralyzed.
This made Hu Qingping confused and suspicious. I wonder what went wrong and made the plan fail?
In fact, he didn't know that his plan was indeed successful and caused considerable trouble and losses to Jiuyou Kingdom. The problem was that his opponent was King Yan Luo, an experienced old ghost.
King Yama knew that once he showed weak combat power or leaked the serious casualties of the local garrison due to the plague, he would immediately add more courage to the enemy and would also attract the enemy's attack in the rain.
In order not to let the house fall and rain suddenly, King Yama arranged many loud sergeants in the mountains every day to gather together for training. At the same time, he would shout loudly during every training session.
The loud and loud shouts resounded through the sky.
The enemy spies who dared not approach Dushuo Mountain could not see the situation in the mountains clearly in the rain and fog, and could only judge the situation in the mountains by their voices.
This has misled all people from outside the mountain.
Not to mention Hu Qingping's right-hand assistants and spies, even the residents of nearby towns felt that the morale of the soldiers in the mountains was high and did not relax or neglect their training due to the continuous rainy days.
The experienced King of Yan Luo was very successful in carefully planned this trick of using the rain and mist performance, which made Hu Qingping confused and doubted his ability.
In the past few days, he has been frowning and unable to sleep or eat, and bloodshot is already rising on the edge of his eyes.
If this continues, Hu Qingping believes that the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom cannot weaken the local army of Jiuyou Kingdom in Dongyingzhou, so Qingqiu Fox Kingdom can only continue to honestly choose to be a vassal state of Jiuyou Kingdom.
But this is Hu Qingping, Qingqiu Fox King and half of the imperial court of the Fox Kingdom, who are not willing or willing to accept it.
The fox ghosts are very ambitious and are strongly eager to go to Tuba, to compete with Jiuyou Kingdom and the Northern Yin Dynasty, and to check and balance each other.
What else must be done?
Hu Qingping, who was staring at the rain curtain in front of him, thought silently and thought about it.
If it weren't for weakening the local Jiuyou Army, Qingqiu Fox Kingdom would have no strength and could compete with it.
However, Hu Qingping racked his brains and couldn't think of a new way.
Just as he was thinking hard, an old fox ghost passed by under the water curtain in front of him, stood in front of his fox Qingping, and immediately bowed.
The old fox ghost's robe was wet with water and was still dripping water.
After the old fox ghost bowed, he saw that there were no outsiders around, so he tried his best to lower his voice and said to Hu Qingping: "Crown Prince, the king has made up his mind to go abroad and go to the capital of Jiuyou Kingdom to serve on an envoy to meet Jiuyou King.
.”.
The appearance of the old fox ghost and his words interrupted Hu Qingping's thoughts.
He calmed down and asked the old ghost thoughtfully: "It's my uncle Wang who has passed on some news, right?"
Hu Qingping knew that although the Fox King of Qingqiu had agreed to Changqin before, he was still worried about going to Jiuyou Kingdom.
Now that I suddenly made up my mind, I just gave up my concerns. It is very likely that Hu Lan sent back some news.
"Yes." The old fox ghost did not deny it and nodded, "Master Hu Lan sent a message back, saying that King Jiuyou recently began to seek peace and wander around after signing the peace treaty with the Northern Yin Dynasty. Why don't he go out to play again?
It’s not even a big deal of state affairs. The king thinks that it’s the best time to go abroad to the Jiuyou Kingdom at this time.”
The wind and rain are swaying, and the water curtain is still falling.
Amid the sound of falling into the water, the old fox ghost smiled softly, showing pride.
A little contempt appeared in his eyes, which was the contempt for the Jiuyou King Xiao Shizhu.
The plan to expel the Jiuyou Army and dominate the east of the underworld seemed to have been successfully completed in the mind of the proud old fox ghost.
Like most of Xiao Shizhu's enemies in the past, these arrogant fox ghosts in the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom made the mistake of despising the cynical Xiao Shizhu.
"The king has another task, and I will give it to the prince." After a while, the old fox ghost lowered his voice to Hu Qingping again and said, "The king will be arranged by the prince when he is going abroad."
