Prime Minister take care

Chapter 57 Ugly Face

Micang Mountain.

It was bone-chilling cold in the mountains in winter, and everything was quiet and empty at that time. Even the birds and beasts were reluctant to show their heads. Only occasionally would hunters go deep into the mountains to hunt rare birds.

However, at this time, Micang Mountain was bustling with people coming and going, transporting materials.

Rammed earth and stones, the foundation has appeared.Where the mountain road passes, a small reconnaissance village is beginning to take shape.It was almost noon. The Dongyang Sect disciples patted the soil in their hands, walked quickly to the fire, and lit a fire to keep warm.

There was a large pot on the shelf above the fire, boiling hot soup.

There was a whistle, and the whistle from a high place saw an ox cart, escorted by Sergeant Chang Ce, filled with grain and meat and being transported to the construction site.The guarding Dongyang believers let go, and Sergeant Chang Ce unloaded the grain and meat.

Dongyang believers happily took the meat and threw it into the pot.These meats are all cured bacon, which is durable for storage and transportation, but the taste is not as refreshing as fresh meat.

There is no need to add any seasoning. Dongyang believers only put some wild vegetables dug in the morning into the pot.The hot water is rolling, and the fragrance soon hits your nose.

For the Dongyang believers who have always been poor, it is a great enjoyment to eat coarse cakes and drink hot soup on this winter day.

Sergeant Chang Ce was also there. They had finished transporting the supplies and it was time to return, but when they smelled the broth, they were too lazy to leave.

"Brothers, would you like some broth too?"

Although the Dongyang Cult has enmity with the Yang family, there is no grudge between the Dongyang Cult and Sergeant Chang Ce.On the contrary, the two sides are very harmonious in getting along these days.

"Why is this so embarrassing? We can just deal with it once."

With that said, a dozen Chang Ce sergeants took out the bowls they carried, walked to the big pot, and scooped out the broth.Sergeant Chang Ce was given rations, just for convenience, but he did not bring any meat.

The Dongyang believers were not stingy either. The two parties sat together, bragging and spanking.

In the distance, Ye Qingqing was watching the scene, his eyebrows furrowed unconsciously.

That day in the Yang Mansion in Xian City, after Yang Xian rescued her.Ye Qingqing had no choice but to put aside her grudge and cooperate with Yang Xian.

Even so, Ye Qingqing was always on guard.But even so, under Yang Xian's methods, the Dongyang Sect's followers are getting closer and closer to Yang Xian.

But Ye Qingqing is very worried that the two of them may fall out in the future.Rather than having to kill each other in the end, it would be better not to have too much contact in the first place.

Yang Xian promised to help her rescue her father Ye Dongyang.So in this winter, he personally led [-] Changce sergeants to move to Micang Mountain, plus [-] Dongyang believers, surrounding the Nether Prison inside and outside, and the power was even greater than in the previous days.

Yang Xian used the same method as her, which was to surround the outside of Netherworld Prison, trying to force Lou Jing to submit.

However, Ye Qingqing soon discovered that Yang Xian pretended to be helping her save her father, but actually had other intentions.

Yang Xian used the oppression of Nether Prison as an excuse to let one hundred thousand Dongyang believers build military facilities at key roads and dangerous places in the mountains.Some places are simply beyond the sphere of influence of Netherworld Prison, and have even reached Micang Road.

Micang Mountain is the jurisdiction of Zhounan County in the east of Yizhou.Zhounan County is located, surrounded by water and fertile land, it is a good place to garrison fields and troops.

Coupled with being surrounded by mountains, the four roads from Yongzhou to Yizhou could not bypass this place in the end.It can be said that this is the military frontier for Shu to resist Liang Jun.Yang Xian has already stationed troops here.Ye Qingqing could see that he had already been on guard against Liang Jun.

These days, Ye Qingqing has gotten over it.Yang Xianming said that he was helping her save her father, but in fact he was using her [-] Dongyang followers as coolies to strengthen and build the defenses for him.Thinking of this, Ye Qingqing gritted his teeth and prepared to go back to settle the score with Yang Xian.

Yang Xian's Dazhai is located in a valley in Micang Mountain, with only one entrance and exit.When the soldier guarding the gate saw that it was Ye Qingqing, he didn't stop her and quickly let her pass, arriving at the Chinese army's stronghold.

Opening the tent door, a wave of hot air came out.Yang Xian was discussing military affairs with a group of Changce Army generals in front of the sand table, ignoring Ye Qingqing.

"The army's food and grass have been stationed in Nanzhong. The city defenses of Baocheng, Miancheng and Gucheng have also been reinforced. Are the armaments at Baocheng Pass in place?"

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, five thousand powerful crossbows and 60 arrows have been sent from Xiancheng to Baocheng Pass. They will arrive in three days."

Yang Xian nodded, "Micang Road is directly connected to Yongzhou. Sanshui is in the hands of Liang Jun. If Huan Wu launches an attack, Liang Jun will most likely use this as an advance base."

If Liang Jun wants to enter the hinterland of Yizhou, he must first capture Zhounan County.Baocheng Pass is between Micang Road and Zhounan County. If Liang Jun ignores it and goes straight to Xiancheng, he will not only be in danger of being cut off, but also face the more dangerous pass of Xichuan's Jiange!
"Lord, I'm worried that Liang Jun will send partial troops from Quegu, Baichuan, and Shiyang to harass our army's hinterland."

"The two roads of Quegu and Baichuan have been abandoned for a long time. Even if Liang Jun sent partial troops, it was mostly to explore the road and prepare for the next attack on Shu. The terrain of Shiyang was too steep, and Liang Jun wanted to march on this road. , it is unlikely to be possible within a few years. Just in case, I have sent rangers to patrol the three roads, and also had people build several outposts at the entrance of the three valleys, and set up a camp in each."

The expressions of the generals changed. The meaning behind Yang Xian's words was that they were obviously ready to defend Liang Jun for a long time.

Ye Qingqing saw this and did not immediately get angry.For some reason, Yang Xian at this moment was not as frivolous as when he got along with her, and was serious and serious, which surprised Ye Qingqing.

After the military discussion was over, the generals withdrew from the camp.Yang Xian shook his fan, looked at Ye Qingqing, and asked, "What does the leader want from me?"

Ye Qingqing temporarily forgot about raising an army to prosecute.She is not a general and is not insensitive to military situations.

"From what you said, it seems that you already know that Liang Jun will attack Yizhou next year? In order to capture Youzhou, Huan Wu spent a lot of effort. Shouldn't he have cultivated for a few years before attacking Shu?"

Yang Xian rolled his eyes and said, "Of course!"

"Why are you so sure?"

"Huanwu negotiated peace with Jingyun, and he did not hesitate to give him the title of Marquis of Yan and let Jingyun join him. It would be unbelievable if there was no conspiracy behind it. The most important thing is that I received a letter, The above lists all the ugly things that the old thief Huan Wu did after he got the land of Yan, and depicts the arrogant, arrogant, and outrageous ugliness of the old thief."

Ye Qingqing walked over first. There was a letter on the table behind Yang Xian. It was written on the envelope that Jing Ping'er, the daughter of the Marquis of Yan, presented a letter to the Prime Minister of Shu, Yang Xian.

Ye Qingqing looked at it and saw that it first contained a cordial greeting and polite remarks about the not-so-deep friendship between the two, and then emphatically praised Yang Xian's literary talents, indicating the determination of the Yanshu family and the Huan thieves to be incompatible.Finally, he expressed his apology and stated that the Liang army was strong that day, and that when the Yan army withdrew, two letters from Yang Xiantong scolding Huan Wu were lost, and that these two letters were accidentally obtained by Huan Wu. After reading them, he vowed to The fact that Yang Xian broke his bones and turned into ashes.

The preface of this letter is not long, but the rest of the letter focuses on describing how Huan Wu was angry, how sad and angry, and how he swore to heaven that he was incompatible with Yang Xian.

Ye Qingqing felt happy after reading it, and inexplicably developed a liking for this woman named Jing Ping'er.In fact, anyone and anything that can make Yang Xian unhappy can arouse her interest.

"By the way, what does the leader want from me?"

Ye Qingqing's face suddenly dropped as he thought of business.

"Yang Zizhan, how do you plan to save my father?"

Yang Xian shook his fan and said something that drove Ye Qingqing crazy: "It's better to save yourself than to save others."
