Seeing that he was so excited, Mu Ying realized that the situation was not good and hurriedly said: "Then I will go over and ask him to get it back now."
Shao Yan also had this intention, but then he thought, this Mu Zhiping is not a good bird, he is usually as cunning as a loach, and taking the book at this time must be for evil purposes. Mu Ying is naive and simple, how could it be
His opponent could only use ruthlessness to deal with such a person, so he said: "I'll go with you."
"Yes." Mu Ying nodded. The moment they pushed open the door, they saw Mu Boqing running over out of breath. The two were stunned for a moment. Mu Boqing adjusted his breathing and sweatdropped.
He said with a full face: "Ying'er, Mr. Shi, have you ever met Ping'er?"
Mu Ying shook her head in surprise, "No, we are also looking for him. Dad, look at you in such a panic, what happened?"
"He's gone." Mu Boqing sighed deeply.
"Gone?" Shao Yan and Mu Ying looked at each other. I'm so tired. What I was worried about finally happened.
Mu Boqing said helplessly: "In normal times, if I said a few words to him, he would just be vomiting and angry, and he would be fine in a day or two. But for some reason, this time he is completely different."
"It's different? Why is it different?" Shao Yan asked curiously
"I can't tell. Anyway, I feel like he is hiding something from us."
Shao Yan nodded and said: "According to this, he is no longer in the village, maybe he is on his way to Liang Jun's camp."
"Liang Jun camp? What is he doing there?" A trace of doubt flashed across Mu Boqing's face. Now, Shao Yan didn't want to hide it from him anymore, so he told him about the booklet. Mu Boqing
After hearing this, Qing shouted that it was not good and hurriedly sent a team of people to chase him down the mountain.
Shao Yan secretly asked Chang Yixiao to lead the four masters to pursue and intercept him. This time he gave a death order. If Mu Zhiping could rein in his horse from the brink, he would be spared. If this guy insisted on having his own way, he would be killed directly.
In order to avoid future troubles, it is not that he is ruthless. In his opinion, one must not be merciful when dealing with villains.
Chang Yixiao and a group of five people were ordered to go down the mountain to pursue Mu Zhiping. No trace of Mu Zhiping was found along the way. Just as they were returning to the village dejectedly, they suddenly heard the sound of someone moaning from behind a short slope. Chang Yixiao and others immediately came up
He went to check and saw a soldier lying there with wounds on his face and body. According to his confession, Mu Zhiping left here with a few confidants forcibly half an hour ago, fled all the way to the southeast, and was beaten to death before leaving.
Many sentries were injured, and he was just one of them.
For Chang Yixiao, this is great news, because he knows that there is only one way to the southeast from here, and that is Qixian County. Donglin defenders are stationed everywhere in that area, and sneaky soldiers like Mu Zhiping are stationed everywhere.
It is difficult for a character to sneak into the city. If he doesn't do it well, he will be detained as a spy. Thinking of this, Chang Yixiao didn't have time to ask Shao Yan for instructions, and directly led the four masters to chase him over there.
The words were divided into two parts. Shao Yan had been waiting for Chang Yixiao and the others for two days, and he was very anxious. That night, he specially made some modifications to the original sketch, and then told the Mu family's father and daughter the entire plan.
, Mu Boqing naturally obeyed the order, and quickly summoned all his generals to march and set up sentries according to Shao Yan's plan. For a time, the entire mountain was covered with open and hidden sentries, with the two sentries being about five meters apart.
, once an emergency occurs, they will send out signals and pass them from each checkpoint to the main camp. This not only avoids exposing themselves, but also allows the large troops to prepare for battle in time.
Mu Ying was responsible for reducing the original strength of the village and selecting elites to lurk on the mountainside to prevent Liang Jun from suddenly attacking. Although this girl is a female, she is quite agile in getting things done and she also knows a little bit about the art of war.
Except for his mediocre martial arts skills, he is very similar to Bai Ruxue in other aspects.
After two consecutive days of busy work, the enemy defense work was finally over. Shao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. The only thing that worried him was Chang Yixiao. After this change, although all the original plans have been cancelled, Mu Zhiping
The pamphlet in hand involves the entire topography of Laopan Mountain. Once it falls into the hands of Liang Jun or Chu Army, the consequences will be disastrous.
After lunch, Shao Yan, accompanied by Mu Boqing, walked through each hillside for on-the-spot inspection. As long as there was something wrong, he would point it out one by one. Due to the large area of Laopan Mountain, there are several kilometers around it.
After a long walk, he gradually felt that his legs were a little sore.
It was dusk when we returned to the camp. As usual, Shao Yan likes to read the military books of this era when he has nothing to do. The content is roughly similar to Sun Tzu's art of war, such as empty city strategy, counter-intuitive strategy, bitter meat strategy, etc. The reason why he arranges troops
Most of the formations are based on what is learned in books and combined with the actual situation to make unified arrangements on the spot.
Mu Boqing marveled at his military talents, and Mu Ying regarded him as a mentor from the bottom of his heart. When he had nothing to do, he would come over to ask him about the art of war. Shao Yan would talk about some historical facts in his spare time.
He told her about the famous battles. The girl listened with great interest. Sometimes she even sat there all night long.
"Brother Shi, the Sun Bin you just mentioned, is there really such a wonderful person in this world?" Mu Ying sat at the table, dragging his chin with his hands, his red face full of anticipation.
Shao Yan put together the military book and said with a hearty smile: "Of course, he was a wizard during the Warring States Period. Unfortunately, Pang Juan had his kneecaps gouged out and he was left crippled. However, he did not give up because of this. Instead, he worked hard and repeatedly
He made military exploits and finally wrote the ancient book "Sun Bin's Art of War".
Mu Ying frowned slightly and sighed softly: "This Pang Juan is too bad. He and Sun Bin came from the same school, why can't they live in harmony?"
Shao Yan chuckled and said: "What's this? During the Three Kingdoms, there were still brothers who killed each other."
"Three Kingdoms? Is it like this now?" Mu Ying said blankly
Shao Yan nodded and said: "More than a thousand years ago, there was a hero named Cao Cao. He had two sons, one named Cao Pi and the other named Cao Zhi..."
When Mu Ying heard in the story that Cao Pi used a seven-step poem to deal with his younger brother Cao Zhi, he was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "Why is this Cao Pi so cruel? What's the point of fighting if two people in the same room are at war with each other? Such a person should not be the emperor.
"
"You are wrong. It is impossible to be an emperor without being ruthless. You must know that the emperor is carrying a country on his shoulders, which represents millions of people in the world. Although Cao Pi was wrong, from the perspective of the emperor, it can be regarded as love.
Excusable”
Mu Ying asked in confusion: "Brother Shi, why did you help him speak up? Cao Pi deliberately planned to kill his younger brother, and he can still be forgiven? Isn't it too unfair for Cao Zhi?"
This girl was so interesting. Shao Yan smiled and said, "This is politics. When a person gets involved in politics, there are many things he cannot help but do. There are many examples in history like the Cao brothers, for example
The Xuanwumen Incident in the Tang Dynasty, the Golden Chamber Pre-alliance in the Song Dynasty, the Gate Seizing Incident in the Ming Dynasty, the Nine Kings Rebellion in the Qing Dynasty, etc."
"Brother Shi, how do you know so much? How did you do it?" Mu Ying's eyes were full of admiration.
Haha, I have traveled through time. There is really nothing in history that I don’t know. Shao Yan wanted to laugh but was embarrassed to laugh out loud. “Actually, these are what I heard from my father when I was a child.”
"It turns out that your father is really knowledgeable."
Shao Yan laughed loudly: "It's about being knowledgeable, not being far-reaching."
Mu Ying's face turned red and she said shyly: "I'm sorry, I said it wrong."
This girl was born in the grasslands and has little knowledge of the Central Plains culture. She often uses the wrong words, which Shao Yan has long been used to.
The two were chatting when they suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. Shao Yan immediately walked over and opened the door, only to see Chang Yixiao standing at the door dripping with sweat, panting from time to time. He finally calmed down his breathing.
, seeing there were other people beside Shao Yan, he said slowly: "Master, my subordinates have brought back this kid Mu Zhiping."
"Yeah, that's great, thank God, thank God." Mu Ying clasped her hands together in excitement and prayed to the sky, thinking that she wouldn't have to worry about leaking the secret this time.
Seeing how cute this girl looked, Shao Yan chuckled. Hearing Chang Yixiao say that Mu Zhiping and a dozen of his confidants walked non-stop to the southeast, trying to bypass Qixian County and avoid Changqing, all the way to Jin Dingguo's camp.
As they set off, they didn't know that as soon as they stepped into the territory of Qixian County, they were detained by the guard there, the Golden Gun King. Until Chang Yixiao arrived, the Golden Gun King learned that Mu Zhiping wanted to surrender to the enemy, and he was beaten and kicked again.
, that guy was beaten until his nose was black and his face was swollen.
The next day, Shao Yan, Chang Yixiao, the Mu family father and daughter, and other key figures gathered together to publicly interrogate Mu Zhiping. However, no matter what everyone asked, Mu Zhiping insisted that he was visiting relatives and friends and did not admit the fact that he had surrendered to the enemy.
, until Chang Yixiao found the pamphlet from him, his arrogance suddenly calmed down a lot.
Seeing that he refused to confess frankly, Mu Boqing walked over, slapped him hard, and said angrily: "Ping'er, please pat your chest and ask yourself, have I ever treated you badly in so many years? When I chose to
It was also your idea to reorganize the brothers in the village into rebels. Now it is you who has chosen to betray the master and surrender to the enemy. It is not our rebels' fault that you have turned your back on your word. You, you have really brought shame on our Mu family."
Facing his uncle's severe rebuke, Mu Zhiping lowered his head with red ears, raised his head again, turned his gaze to Shao Yan, and said coldly: "The reason why my nephew chose this path is all thanks to him."
Shao Yan was stunned. Oh my God, it’s none of my business. You are a bitch. You can’t poop in the pit. I didn’t force you to be a traitor. A dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory. “I
Speaking of Mr. Mu, could you please go through your brain first when you speak next time? No one can influence you as long as your feet are on your body. Even if you have an opinion against me, you can just raise it directly. Why bother to risk the world?
What? That’s very dangerous.”
Mu Zhiping snorted coldly and said: "Shishan, I will not argue with you today. The winner will be the king and the loser will be the bandit. Since I have fallen into your hands, I will kill or cut you as you please."
Hold your neck high and look confident
Shao Yan wanted to laugh when he saw it. What the hell, it will keep you from crying for a while. "Mr. Mu, I think you misunderstood. First, you didn't fall into my hands, but returned to our big family."
Collectively; two, we have no intention of killing you. As long as you can change your mind and start a new life, you will still be our good colleague——, good brother."
"Huh, don't be so hypocritical." Mu Zhiping turned his head disdainfully, his attitude was extremely arrogant.
Chang Yixiao glared at him, "You are so rude, our master doesn't remember the faults of others. What's your attitude? If it weren't for the sake of the master, Uncle Mu, and Miss Mu,
I asked Brother Gun King to kill you with one blow." This is true. In the prison in Qixian County, King Gun King had murderous intentions for Mu Zhiping several times. Fortunately, Chang Yixiao came forward to intercede for him and was able to save his life.
his life
"Little brat, what qualifications do you have to speak here? Humph, do you think I can thank you if you say a few nice words? Humph, you and your master are the same thing, hypocrites," Mu Zhiping said with a look.
Extremely cold, as if he doesn't care about anyone
"You——" Chang Yixiao was so angry that he drew out his long knife angrily.
"That's all, Yixiao, please step aside first." Shao Yan waved his hand, and then Chang Yixiao stepped aside respectfully.
