Dao fruit.

"Taoist priest?"

Seeing this Taoist priest, Qiu Yan felt suspicious.

The other people sitting in the hall seemed to be very familiar with this Taoist priest, and they didn't show surprise.

Then, the Taoist priest named Jingquanzi came up, chatted with Liu Jing, and then said: "Please also write down the information that needs to be conveyed on this piece of paper, so that the poor Taoist can pass it on." With a flick of his big sleeve, there was an extra piece of paper in his hand.

The paper was yellow and dry, as if it would crack at any moment.

However, Liu Jing seemed to understand the strangeness, and asked someone to take a pen and ink, and wrote everything Qiu Yan just said on it.Qiu Yan stood aside, answering Liu Jing's inquiries from time to time.

Originally, if Qiu Yan wrote the pen, it would be the most ideal, but this letter was to be passed on to Song Yuan, and it involved military power, so Liu Jing, who had a comparable official character, was required to write it.

Not far away, the Taoist priest Jingquanzi stood quietly in the hall, smiling, his eyes swept Qiu Yan from time to time, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.

It took Liu Jing a full meal to write this. During the period, he also exchanged opinions with other officials several times, refined the wording, and synthesized the latest military information, filling a whole sheet of paper.

At the end, he stopped suddenly, frowned, and asked Qiu Yan with some puzzlement: "What is the purpose of the Marsh people's marching troops? According to what you said, after the Marsh people lacked horses and robbed money and food, they moved slowly and easily Being chased, intercepted, and surrounded by the officers and soldiers, wouldn't it be a waste of effort for them to send troops this time."

"The student has some thoughts." Qiu Yan had expected Liu Jing to ask this question. "When the student was in Wuxin City, he had contacted the little prince of the Marshman and talked with him. He knew that his clan was not stable. This time, probably Someone among the marsh people has the idea of ​​unifying the marsh tribe, and this march may be to borrow the hands of officers and soldiers. Kill a group of people to reduce resistance within the clan."

These words were heard by Liu Jing and the other officials, and they were like enlightenment. They guarded one side, knew the situation in the southwest, and had a little understanding of the marsh people's interior, and immediately understood the mystery inside.

Liu Jing frowned and said, "What a ruthless method. I don't know whether it was De Ying, Fat Xin, or Jian Duoyi who made this move. In the current situation, this goal may be half achieved." Guess written up.

It's just that the officials in the hall don't know.Qiu Yan still had some words to say.

Na Faxin marched, searched for craftsmen and ironware everywhere, and the pictures were not small, and the Fanren even tried to use this to preach, but there was no evidence for these things, and rashly speaking out revealed their cards.So I bury it in my heart and wait for the time.

"All right."

Soon, Liu Jing collected the pen, read it through, and then handed it over to Jing Quanzi.

"So, that poor Taoist is about to pass it on." Taking the paper, Jing Quanzi took a deep breath, and then flipped his wrist and fingers flexibly.In the blink of an eye, the paper full of words was folded into a paper crane, and finally he blew on it.

Snapped!

The paper crane made a crisp sound, then flapped its wings and flew up, fluttering out of the lobby and straight into the air.The speed was extremely fast, and it disappeared into the sky in a blink of an eye.

Seeing this scene, Qiu Yan's pupils constricted immediately, and his heart was full of surprise: "This Taoist priest is not shy about performing Taoism in the government office! How did he resist the invasion of official spirit? And it is so mixed with ordinary people. Officialdom. The entanglement of cause and effect and karma is no small matter, is this person not afraid?"

The official yamen is not a simple place. Although this is a world where gods and Taoism are manifested in the world, people with supernatural powers still dare not show their means in the officialdom at will. No small matter.

The reason why Qiu Yan dared to take the road of imperial examinations was because his avatar, although he had practiced, had no mastery and was not involved in Taoism. One is that there is no relationship with the deity of the gods, and there is not much karma and luck involved.

In history, only when the dynasties change and the fortunes and fates of the heaven and the earth are chaotic, there will be a large number of cultivators, each betting on their bets and conquering the world.

"Although the Da Rui Dynasty has said that it was in its heyday, there was no great chaos after all, and some Taoists blatantly joined the government, huh? This reform, to a certain extent, can also be regarded as an act of revolution. Could it be that Do people bet their luck on it?"

Qiu Yan looked at the Taoist priest, thinking in his heart, his thoughts fluctuated.

At this time, Liu Jing recruited two more people, and said: "Go to the backyard to tidy up the two rooms, and let Mr. Qiu and Taoist Jingquanzi settle down first."

After saying this, he turned to look at Qiu Yan and Jing Quanzi: "The situation is unknown now. To prevent accidents, please stay here for a few days. For your relatives, friends and Taoist temples, I will send people over there illustrate."

Both Qiu Yan and Jing Quanzi nodded and said, "That's exactly what it should be."

It's about military affairs, so of course we can't be sloppy. Letting Qiu Yan and Jing Quanzi stay in the mansion is not only to prevent the news from leaking out, but also to eliminate their suspicions when similar things happen.

After a while, someone came to lead the way and took the two of them away, while the officials in the hall began to discuss again.

………………

Wuxin City, the barracks outside the city.

Da da da!

As soon as he rode far away, there was billowing dust.

The rider galloped his horse into the camp, and the road went smoothly until he reached the big tent in the camp. Then he got off his horse, walked in, knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists and said, "General, my subordinates have found out the situation. The Yongping Army is indeed They sent out troops, but they were plotted against by the marshmen and fanren, and lost about 1000 cavalry."

After the words fell, he took out a letter from his arms and presented it.

"Oh? Zhang Duling couldn't bear his temper after all."

In the tent, the generals are lined up on the left and right, and Song Yuan is at the head, sitting on a suit of armor and a big horse with a golden sword. He has a great atmosphere. He finished the letter, read it once, and then passed it on to the generals.

Beside Song Yuan stood a man dressed as a scholar. His face was like a crown jade, his lips were red and his teeth were white. After reading the letter, he said with a smile: "The poor mountains and bad waters in the five marshes are not good for horses to run around. , handed over to one of his sons to lead, so several of his sons are trying to fight for the spot, and this Du Ling's war horse is probably going to fall into the hands of the Fan."

The general on the left came out at this time and said: "General, since Zhang Duling has suffered losses, shouldn't we send troops? It's better to compare the Yongping Army!"

Immediately, someone retorted: "It's not right! Sending troops now is to take advantage of Yongping's ammunition. They might beat us up afterwards and throw the responsibility of war horses on us. I think we should wait and see what happens."

As soon as the general finished speaking, other people also expressed their opinions one after another, and the camp was in chaos immediately.

On the contrary, Song Yuan remained silent and let the generals talk.

The scholar next to Song Yuan said again: "General, now is an opportunity. There are not many people in Jiannan Dao who know how to fight. As long as the situation continues to deteriorate, it will always be difficult. I might as well let it go and let them know how powerful they are. They will not be too opposed to the proposal to divide the troops into garrison in the future."

As soon as this person spoke, the others all shut up and turned their eyes to Song Yuan, waiting for the next sentence.

Song Yuan looked around, and then said slowly: "The army and Taoism do not command each other. How to fight is our business. It is not up to others to comment. My Wu Xin army is guarding one side. The responsibility is not light, and we can't act rashly. Let's wait and see." When the situation is clearer, we will discuss the matter of sending troops, but war horses are too important to be left to wander, we must draw up a regulation and see if we can regain some of them."

All the generals below immediately understood that Song Yuan wanted to wait and see what happened.

In fact, ever since they were called to the camp and heard the news of the Marsh and Fan people entering the army, they knew that Song Yuan intended to send troops, but they had to think carefully about when, how, and where to send troops. After all, as long as troops are sent out, it is inevitable that there will be damage. Of course, we must think carefully and strive for benefits.

The scholar said to Song Yuan: "The officials and lords of Jiannan Road probably don't know the situation. They will ask us for help when they have suffered enough losses and know that the Yongping Army can't count on them. One or two."

As he was speaking, there was a sudden sound of breaking through the air outside!

hum!

Immediately afterwards, there was a "poof" on the top of the tent, and a hole was opened!

A paper crane flew in, and was immediately scattered by the energy and blood, turning into a piece of withered yellow paper and falling in front of Song Yuan.

"Huh?" Song Yuan raised his hand to take a picture, sucked the paper into his hand, first glanced at it roughly, then changed his face, read it carefully, and finally shook his head and smiled: "What a scholar's words, Qiu Yan, Qiu Yan , I really shouldn't let you go."

The scholar next to him has been paying attention to Song Yuan's expression, and when he heard the name "Qiu Yan" in his mouth, his expression changed slightly.

Putting down the paper, Song Yuan stood up and said: "Everyone is ready to prepare and send troops immediately! Solve the military disaster in the Yuanning Mansion as soon as possible. In addition, let people fly pigeons to pass the letter to the Zuo Army's Governor's Mansion, saying that the monks and soldiers of the Fan people have robbed them." A group of war horses went north to Longyou via the West Road."

"This……"

The generals looked at each other in blank dismay, a little puzzled, just now Song Yuan was just watching the situation quietly, why did he turn his face away, and he was about to send troops, and he also wanted to send a letter to the Zuojun Governor's Mansion.

"General, the Yongping Army must have passed the letter. If we also spread the letter, it will be the joint name of the two armies immediately. I am afraid that the governor of the Zuo Army will really send out manpower to intercept the horses! Please think twice..." The scholar stepped forward to persuade, but his eyes were He glanced at the paper in Song Yuan's hand.

"Look for yourself," Song Yuan handed over the letter, "Without this letter, the Jiannan Road government and the two military towns would not belong to each other in this matter, but with this letter, it would be The grand strategy of the entire Southwest cannot allow me to take advantage of the fire."

Song Yuan was full of regret, picked up his helmet, and led the generals out of the camp, while the scholar looked at the letter paper, but his face changed continuously.

Half an hour later, Wu Xin's army, which had been ready for a long time, set off to the west.

………………

At the same time, outside Jiarong County, there was a sudden explosion!

The golden light covering a mound disappeared, and then a huge phantom of Zaogong emerged.

Afterwards, the phantom expanded and released a faint breath, covering the county town not far away.
