king array

Sending away two envoys one after another, the envoy from Liangzhou was very arrogant, even though he hated the bandits in Qingping Mountain, he still sent them off with a good voice. Looking at the envoy from Hanzhong, even though he was sent out politely, he It's an embarrassing look like a lost soul.

"Northwestern wolves are greedy. If General Zhongli sees death today, isn't he afraid that the rabbit will die and the fox will be sad and repeat the mistakes of Hanzhong?" The Hanzhong envoy sighed to Zhonglishan one last time before leaving, hoping that he would change his mind.

Although Zhong Lishan knew in his heart that allowing Liangzhou to be captured by Chen Bing would be disadvantageous to him, he couldn't express his difficulties in front of the envoys, he could only say that he was more than willing but not enough.

The envoy of Hanzhong smiled bitterly and shook his head. The disaster of Hanzhong today has nothing to do with others. Because the local bureaucrats are incompetent and the military affairs are slack, even if they, the few loyal and honest officials, try their best to maintain the city, they cannot save the city from collapse.Thinking of this, the envoy's eyes darkened slightly, and he suddenly thought about it.

No matter!Who can't be the master of Hanzhong?They, who are unwilling to join forces with treacherous villains, why bother to run for a foolish master, they might as well unite and simply surrender to Chen Bing, and cooperate with the inside and outside to welcome the Liangzhou army into the city, which will save the people of Hanzhong from suffering from the flames of war.

Thinking of this, the Hanzhong envoy's spirits were quite lifted, and he was about to ride away when he suddenly heard someone behind him shouting: "Your envoy, please stop!" He turned his head and saw a handsome man with picturesque eyes chasing him, showing impatience on his face Zhise, in order to be polite, tightened the reins and dismounted again.

In fact, long before he came to Qingping Mountain, he had heard about Feng Wuge in Jinxiu Tower. At first he thought it was just a peddler and merchant, and he was quite disdainful, but he heard some rumors about him from his friends, and learned that he had once Openly challenged the treacherous eunuch Qin Chao, and immediately stood in awe.To put it bluntly, the reason for coming to Qingping Mountain to ask for help this time is also for several formation masters in Qingping Mountain, and according to the information he has, the most important of these formation masters is the world-famous Mr. Sichen.

Mr. Sichen's talent spread far and wide, and some time ago, it was rumored that he was an array mage. Who among the world's heroes would not want to ask him for help?But the person Mr. Sichen chose to follow is the owner of the embroidery shop of this low-level merchant.

The envoy thought that this Mr. Feng must be extraordinary to get a talent like Mr. Sichen, and he was full of expectations when he came, and firmly believed that with this talent, he must understand the pros and cons of the Hanzhong matter, and would agree to send troops to help.However, when he saw the real person at Qingping Mountain, the envoy couldn't help being disappointed, because he didn't see anything special about Feng Wuge, except of course, he was good-looking.

He looks really good-looking, with white skin and watery eyes, he is so good-looking that he doesn't look like a man. After contacting the rumors about Mr. Sichen's Longyang, the envoy will realize it in his heart, and he will no longer be interested in this Feng. Mr. Zhuo Sichen chose Qingping Mountain to settle down, presumably because of the owner of the mountain, Zhongli Mountain, so when he came to ask for help, he only wanted to lobby Zhongli Mountain, and did not have a deep friendship with Feng Wuge.

Counting the few days they stayed in Qingping Mountain, the two of them didn't say a few words in total, why would he come here to see them off at this moment?

The envoy from Hanzhong thought about it, but on the surface he was still respectful, and saluted Ling Xun, "I don't know why Mr. Feng called me to live here."

Ling Xun hurried, but fortunately he caught up with him before he left, "I want to stop you, I have a few words to say!"

"Let me tell you, my son, I will definitely listen to you."

Zhong Lishan stood aside, wondering what kind of medicine Ling Xun sold in the gourd, but he didn't intervene, just waiting for him to write later, just like the envoy from Hanzhong.

Ling Xun smiled, showing embarrassment, "Actually, as an outsider, I don't know whether to say these words."

Why are you chasing after me?Hypocrisy!

The Hanzhong envoy secretly slandered in his heart, but pretended to be patient on the surface.

Ling Xun pretended not to see the contempt in the Hanzhong envoy's expression, and said sincerely: "I remember the envoy once said that Chen Bing invaded Hanzhong because of the so-called king's formation?"

"That's right, but this is pure nonsense! Presumably that Chen is just making such a bullshit reason for the sake of being famous as a teacher." The envoy became very angry when he mentioned this, and couldn't help uttering foul words.

Ling Xun shook his head and said: "That's not the case. As far as I know, Chen Bing's excuse for the King's Formation was not just an empty slogan. When he sent troops to Beijing to harm the two rivers, he was indeed looking for a man named 'The King's Formation'. s things."

The envoy was a little surprised. In the deep basin of Hanzhong, the mountains on all sides acted as a support, but they were also barriers. Many news were not as well-informed as those outside. related.

"Recently, I have often heard news about the 'King's Formation'. However, no one has been able to explain what it is, but it made Chen Bing look for it like a madman. Hanzhong is known as the Heavenly Mansion. It is beautiful and outstanding. I'm worried that after Chen Bing invades Hanzhong, in order to force you to hand over the 'King Formation', he will have to resort to coercion and temptation, and dig three feet to find this non-existent thing." Ling Xun said here, with a worried expression on his face. , There was a look of regret between the brows, "It's a pity that Hanzhong's hundreds of years of accumulation will soon be put into fire and water, and how many well-educated people in Hanzhong will soon be tortured and humiliated by soldiers and ruffians."

Hearing Ling Xun's words, the envoys immediately broke out in cold sweat. Thanks to him, he was moved to surrender, but he didn't know that even if Chen Bing was enshrined as the new master, what a tragic fate awaited them.I have heard that Chen Bing is cruel and paranoid. If he really believes that the king's array is in Hanzhong, can they still have a good life?Especially for these old officials who have been rooted in Hanzhong for generations, why should Chen Bing forcefully ask for clues?

But where do they know where the King's Formation is?

"Since Mr. Feng already knows that Hanzhong is in great trouble, how can he stand by and watch? I hope you can persuade General Zhongli to save Hanzhong!" The envoy said, wanting to prostrate with tears like rain.

"Liangzhou has strong soldiers and horses, comparable to Daozu. Hanzhong and Qingping Mountain are both fish and meat. Our self-protection is a problem, so how can we contribute to Hanzhong? My brother Zhongli is really helpless." Ling Xun helped the envoy up, but changed the topic, He took out something from his sleeve, "However, I have something to give to the envoy, which may be of some help to the affairs of Hanzhong."

The envoy from Hanzhong took what Ling Xun handed to him suspiciously, and saw that it was a scroll of blueprints written on silk, and when he unfolded it, he turned pale with astonishment.

"This... this is actually a city defense map!"

"This picture was drawn by Mr. Sichen. It is a formation of troops designed according to the topography of Hanzhong. As long as you deploy your defenses according to the instructions in this picture, although it cannot be said that Hanzhong will be turned into an iron bucket, you can at least drag Liangzhou soldiers and let them Do not break through the city easily, if used properly, Hanzhong can be safe for a year. It is not known what will happen after one year, but for Hanzhong, it will always be a turning point."

"My lord's great kindness... If this picture can keep Hanzhong, Mr. Sichen is no different from Hanzhong people remaking their parents!" The Hanzhong envoy was so excited that tears filled his eyes. He looked up and saw the restrained Mr. Sichen, so he had to He bowed three times in the direction of Qingping Shanzhai, and bowed to Ling Xun again and again.

"As the envoy said, Hanzhong and Qingping Mountain are in a relationship of mountains and rivers. One prospers and the other loses. If we don't have unavoidable difficulties, we must do our best to help. But now we are also controlled by others, and we can only do our best. I can help a little. There is only one thing, I hope you will remember that you must not let people in Liangzhou know that this picture is a gift from Qingping Mountain."

Ling Xun's words are sincere, so how can the envoy refuse to obey?He didn't dare to despise Ling Xun any more, and left with a map of the city defense with tears of gratitude.Ling Xun watched him walk away, the tenderness faded from his face, and the corners of his lips slightly curled up.

I also feel sorry for the Hanzhong envoy, who was tricked and didn't know it. He just rushed back to Hanzhong happily holding the precious blueprint.

"Brother Feng, is it okay to give him the city defense map? Since it was made by Mr. Mu, there must be formation techniques hidden in it. There are so many formation masters under Chen Bing, it is impossible not to recognize them."

"There's no way to recognize it." Ling Xun rubbed his brows, turned his head and said to Zhong Lishan, "The state shepherd is incompetent, and Hanzhong is dissociated from morality. If Hanzhong is left alone, it is estimated that within a few days, the people below will rebel and take the initiative to let go." Chen Bing enters the city. When Chen Bing wins Hanzhong with little effort, he will pull up Qingping Mountain in one go. We have no power to resist. But if Hanzhong becomes a hard bone and Chen Bing gnaws it hard, even if Hanzhong is really captured, We must also shed a layer of skin. Even if he comes to Qingping Mountain again, we will be fully prepared to fight him due to the steep terrain. This is also the result of my one-night discussion with Mr. Mu. The time is too long. It's urgent, I'll kill you before I have time to tell you, big brother, don't blame me."

According to Mu Jiu's point, Ling Xun now pays special attention to the relationship with Zhonglishan, and tries not to touch his bottom line as much as possible. He has made up his mind that he must obtain his permission in advance for future decisions about Qingpingshan.

Zhong Lishan saw that Ling Xun's eyes were blue, obviously he hadn't slept all night, he couldn't help feeling guilty, he patted Ling Xun on the shoulder and said: "You are more thoughtful than I am, since Xiaozhen left, this cottage is thanks to your hard work, you Go to rest first, we two brothers will have a good drink in a few days, let me apologize to you."

"Brother, what are you talking about? It's you who frightened the brothers in the mountain last night. How are you doing now? Has Mr. Ruan shown it to you?"

"It's okay, it's just an ordinary headache. Ruan San said that I was depressed and caused by drinking too much for a long time. It will be fine after a period of recuperation."

"Really?" Ling Xun remembered that Mu Jiu told him last night that Zhong Lishan's headache was strange, but he couldn't let it go.

"It's really nothing! Don't worry about it!" Zhong Lishan waved his hand disdainfully, and then his expression suddenly became serious, with a cold look in his eyes, "It's the one who released the poisonous snake, he must be caught! Otherwise, stay cool The state's nails are in the mountains, and there will be endless troubles!"

Zhonglishan was stimulated by the incident of Zhongligan's poisoning, and gradually walked out of the haze of Lingshu's death, and resumed the methods used by Qingpingshan's master in the past. With Ling Xun's assistance, it didn't take long to find out the suspect, but it was none other than Wang Qi, who had served as Master Huang's dog's leg and later switched to Wu Qing's tent.
