Chapter 399 Who Is so Unlucky?

Hong Xiaoyu came back to her senses immediately. She glanced at Yu Feng and then said quickly, "You can't blame Governor Wang for this. I think the reason why Master asked me to call Governor Wang over is because he knows that our brothers, including himself, are here." , not even daring to risk the safety of Third Senior Brother."

Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said depressedly, "Your master is idle. Beichen is now rebelling everywhere. It is obviously caused by the unstable situation in the central royal family. You said that he will not stabilize the court and stay in peace." What are you doing in Xizhou?”

Hong Xiaoyu glanced at Wang Yue and said with disapproval, "My master has been fighting all over the world these years to intimidate Xiao Xiao, and this is how he secured the empire."

Wang Yue didn't want to chat with this political idiot, so he said to Yu Feng, "Take Yang Shao away. After I go back and settle Xiaoyao City, I will take Shi Yi and Uncle Li and Aunt Li with me and return to Southern Qingzhou. "

Miao Feng nodded and said in response, "Why don't you come with us? Not only do we have to attend the wedding of You and Shiyi, but we just happened to hand over Yang Shao to Zhongzhou when we passed by Zhongzhou. We are actually traveling on the same road."

Wang Yue glanced at Yu Feng and Hong Xiaoyu, and suddenly understood something. He smiled and said, "Are you going to Qinghe and waiting for me to get married? You and General Hong will also get married?"

Miao Feng was unusually shy. He glanced at Hong Xiaoyu, then nodded and said, "I am going back to Qinghe this time to report to my father."

Wang Yue nodded, and then he realized that Hong Xiaoyu and Feng returned to Xizhou just to go to Zhongzhou with him.

Wang Yue looked at Yu Feng and Hong Xiaoyu and felt that the two of them were quite suitable. The Qinghe family needed a few generals. After he figured it out, he smiled and said, "Well, you can make arrangements as soon as possible. Go with my army, it is safer in this world."

Hong Xiaoyu thought that the barracks in Xiaoyao City were already overcrowded. She glanced at Wang Yue and asked cautiously, "Prince Wang, how many soldiers and horses in Xiaoyao City are you planning to take away this time?"

Wang Yue knew what Hong Xiaoyu was worried about, so he smiled and said, "Leave more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to defend the city. I will take all the other soldiers and horses away. From now on, every 20,000 soldiers and horses trained in Xiaoyao City will be sent to our Southern Qingzhou immediately. "

Hong Xiaoyu made an estimate and said hesitantly, "Then Governor Wang is probably going to take away more than 40,000 soldiers and horses this time. It's just the family members of these 40,000 people. How are you going to arrange it?"

Wang Yue lamented that Zhou Shengchen's disciples were all concerned about the country and the people. He admired such people very much and patiently explained, "I don't force this. If you are willing to stay in Xizhou, I will stay in Xiaoyao Valley." The land purchased nearby is enough to accommodate them. If they are willing to go to Nan Qingzhou, I can also take them away. It is too close to Nanxiao and they have just returned to Beichen. There is really a lot of wasteland and can accommodate many refugees. "

Hong Xiaoyu heard that Wang Yue had already made arrangements, so she no longer worried about the people. She sighed and said, "Only Governor Wang has the financial resources to support such a huge army so easily and displace so many people." The people live and work in peace and contentment.”

Wang Yue rolled his eyes. This girl was a bit too flattering. He quickly said humbly, "Actually, you can do it in Xizhou. After all, a lot of your land is cultivated by the military and you are still self-sufficient. It's just that your prince is afraid of continuing to expand the army." If it does, it will arouse greater suspicion."

Of course Hong Xiaoyu knew the master's worries, so he smiled and said, "Isn't it possible that Wang, the governor, is not afraid that the Wang family's army will be too large and arouse others' suspicion? According to my estimate, Qingzhou's army has more than 200,000 soldiers and horses. You This time we brought back about 50,000 troops from Southern Qingzhou, which is already close to 300,000 troops."

Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth. He originally planned to build a high wall and accumulate food to slowly become king, but in this era, when you have money and food, your troops are like a snowball. They grow so fast that he was caught off guard.

Seeing that Hong Xiaoyu was still waiting for a reply, Wang Yue sighed, looked at Hong Xiaoyu worriedly, and then said, "As long as your prince's army of 700,000 has not dispersed, I would like to have some of my troops." , no one else will care.”

Hong Xiaoyu was choked by Wang Yue's words. At this time, she happened to reach a fork in the road. She turned her horse's head, saluted Wang Yue and said with a smile, "Then I will go back to the palace first. Our prince also feels that he is with you." One to the east and one to the west, guarding the Dachen border can make Emperor Nanxiao more honest and no longer dare to instigate rebellion against our Northern Chen city lord."

Wang Yue didn't expect Hong Xiaoyu to say that. According to rumors, Hong Xiaoyu didn't study much. He glanced at Yu Feng and immediately understood that the power of love is really powerful.

Wang Yue said solemnly, "As long as your prince is still alive, the Wang Family Army will guard the Eastern Front for one day. I just hope that your prince will take good care of his health and not be tricked by Xiao Xiao."

Seeing that Wang Yue was serious, Hong Xiaoyu bowed deeply to Wang Yue and said with some regret, "Thank you very much, Governor Wang. I will relay the words of Governor Wang to my master. Sometimes, his In my heart, I really feel that there is only a country, no home, and no self.”

Wang Yue was also very helpless. He sighed and then said, "I think your prince is safe for the time being. After all, there are countless city lords who are ready to make trouble. Hey, since ancient times, generals have brought peace to the world, and generals have never enjoyed peace. "

After Wang Yue and Mole separated, they quickly rushed to Xiaoyao City and stepped up to handle the affairs.

While arranging people and horses, checkpoints were set up on the mountains around Xiaoyao Valley. In the future, passes will be built on the mountain roads that are easy to enter and exit, and soldiers and horses will be stationed to ensure the safety of Xiaoyao Valley.

Mole saw Wang Yue's actions and asked hesitantly, "What should we do if King Nanchen attacks us?"

Wang Yue glanced at Mole and said with a smile, "As long as our soldiers and horses are still in Nan Qingzhou, King Nanchen will not attack here. After all, Xiaoyao Valley's reputation in Xizhou is very good. Even if they If you really want to take action crazily, but you can't hold on, you will retreat to the large formation in the valley, and with the help of ten or twenty thousand defenders, the power of Qimen Dunjia will be almost invincible."

Mole thought of the workshops where the formation was located, and said with some distress, "Then those jobs outside, the industrial facilities, are all gone?"

Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "You have to remember, if you save people, you will lose land, and everyone and land will survive. If you save land, you will lose people, and everyone will lose their land."

If Mole realized something, he said with a smile, "Young Master is saying that those facilities cannot be installed properly even if they are dismantled by others. They probably won't be willing to move them. When our army comes over, they will all be ours again."

Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth. He didn't expect Mole to understand so much, so he quickly reminded Mole, "Let our Qingzhou fleet increase their efforts to collect grain from the south, not only to support Southern Qingzhou, but also Xiaoyao Valley." , and also prepare rations for 50,000 people for more than two years, just in case."

After listening to Wang Yue's arrangement, Mole nodded solemnly and went out to make arrangements.

Not long after, Wang Yue and Mole picked up three people from the Li family and took 50,000 troops. They met with Cao Hong's troops outside Xizhou City, escorted Yang Shao, and headed towards Zhongzhou together.

To Wang Yue's surprise, Xiao Yan also followed, preparing to go to Southern Qingzhou with Wang Yue.

On the march, Xiao Yan and Wang Yue walked side by side. He smiled and said, "I have said goodbye to King Xiao Nanchen, and I will disturb King Xiao Qingzhou from now on."

Wang Yue asked Xiao Yan with some confusion, "Why don't you stay in Xizhou anymore? You don't want to take revenge?"

Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, and said helplessly, "King Xiao Nanchen has a good character and martial arts, but he is a bit stubborn and is unlikely to send troops south to avenge me and cause a war between the two countries."

Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth. Xiao Yan was plotting against him again. Wang Yue quickly refused and said, "King Xiao Nanchen is not willing to go south, and it is even more impossible for me to go south."

Xiao Yan shook his head noncommittally, and then said, "There is at least a glimmer of hope here with you. In Xizhou, unless Emperor Xiao of the South is stupid and takes the initiative to invade the north, there is no chance."

Because there were so many soldiers and horses when he went back this time, Wang Yue couldn't pass by Zhongzhou to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, so he planned to bypass Zhongzhou and go to Bingzhou. At the junction of Bingzhou and Zhongzhou, he waited for Miao Feng and Hong Xiaoyu to stop him. After Yang Shao was sent to Zhongzhou, he returned to South Qingzhou together.

This time, because there were prisoners escorted and some family members who accompanied the army to Southern Qingzhou, the huge convoy attracted too much attention. Wang Yue sent the scouts far away and specially asked people to clean up the traces of the army. , so that others don’t know the details of Wang Yue’s army.

The group of people marched secretly like this. After passing Yongzhou, they turned north and arrived near Dongyongzhou.

Because he needed to cross the Yellow River ahead, Wang Yue arranged to collect ships and sent additional scouts.

Not long after, when the army was still some distance away from the Yellow River, some scouts rushed to report that there seemed to be signs of an ambush on the east bank of the Yellow River.

Wang Yue looked at the map and asked doubtfully, "Approximately how many troops are there in the enemy army?"

The scout thought for a moment and then said hesitantly, "I don't know, but looking at that terrain, there is no way that fifty or sixty thousand troops can be hidden."

Wang Yue also breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said to Yu Feng, "Who is this for? Is it for you or me?"

Miao Feng twitched the corner of his mouth and said speechlessly, "No matter what, you were cautious all the way, but you tricked the other party. They didn't know that you took away 40,000 of Xiaoyao City's more than 50,000 horses. Today, I don’t know who is so unlucky.”

Everyone laughed after hearing what Yu Feng said. At first, they thought Wang Yue was too cautious in marching, but they did not expect that there would be unexpected results.

Not to mention Wang Yue's more than 50,000 troops, the Xizhou Army escorted this time. There are also more than 10,000 soldiers and horses following them. Of course, there are also 3,000 to 5,000 soldiers and horses here. They are Cui's private soldiers, and all of them are capable of conquering and fighting.

After Wang Yue waited for everyone to laugh for a while, he quickly arranged, "Mole, you take 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry to the upper reaches, find a narrow ferry, quickly cross the river, wait for opportunities from the flanks, and wait for me and When the opponent is fighting, they suddenly come out, attack with me, and eat the opponent."

The Mole looked at the map and said with a smile, "Young Master, let's bury the pot and make rice first, wait two hours before crossing the river, and be careful of the other party attacking us halfway across the river."

Wang Yue waved his hand nonchalantly and said with a smile, "Go ahead, I know what's going on. We'll wait until the sun sets before crossing the river. You don't have to worry, just be careful to hide the traces."
