In less than a month, the Song army had conquered Gui, Liu and Yi, defeated the main force of Danan Kingdom, recovered hundreds of miles of lost land, annihilated more than 100,000 enemies, sang triumphal songs all the way, and advanced forward.
After capturing Liuzhou, the army rested for five days. After Yang Paifeng's troops who had gone to defeat Yizhou, they rushed to join him before they rose up and went straight to Pennsylvania.
It is more than 300 miles from Liuzhou to Bienzhou. Along the way, there are Xiangzhou Defense Prefecture, Wuxian, Yangshou and other counties, and they also defeat Wuhua, Laibin and other counties, which greatly boosted their military power.
In more than ten days, I arrived at the foot of Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania is already the depth of the Great Southern Kingdom. It is less than fifty miles away from the state, so it is already Kunlun Pass. As long as you cross Kunlun, you can go straight to Yongzhou, wipe out the Great Southern Kingdom, and capture and kill Nong Zhigao.
On this day, the army arrived at the city of Pennsylvania and set up camp twenty miles away.
Just after he settled the three armies in front and back, he suddenly heard the guards report: Report to the marshal, the latter general Chen Shu had already cleared the remaining bandits in Jinghu and led the army of his troops to meet!
Mu Guiying was overjoyed when she heard this and hurriedly summoned Chen Shu to the front and said: With the help of the public, our three armies are even more powerful, and Pennsylvania is within reach!
When Mrs. Chen saw her husband return, she was overjoyed and followed Mu Guiying out of the tent to greet her.
The couple met and couldn't help but feel moved.
After the two of them had a separation, Chen Shu said: Marshal, I will bring two more people here.
oh?Mu Guiying asked in confusion, who is that?
Chen Shu hurriedly turned his body to the side and bowed slightly and said: Grandma Eighth, please come here!
At this time, two men and women walked out of the crowd. The leader was a middle-aged beautiful woman, who was less than fifty years old, and she still had charm.
Although her temples were slightly white, her skin was still as tight as a girl, and her temperament was skillful, just like the Queen Mother of the West walking down from Kunlun Mountain.
I only heard her voice as pleasant as a silver bell: Guiying, I haven't seen her for many days, so I'm fine!
When Mu Guiying saw this, she hurriedly bowed: Bagu, why are you here?
It turned out that this middle-aged beautiful woman was the eighth grandmother of Tianbo Mansion and the eighth sister of Liulang Yang Yanzhao.
When she saw Mu Guiying ask, she said: Shortly after you left Tianbo Mansion, the emperor issued another order to grant me the title of General Pingshu, and together with Yue Gang, we went to the two rivers to quell the bandits and rebellion.In the past few days, the war in Sichuan has been settled. The commander-in-chief returned to the court, but unexpectedly he met your envoy sent to Tokyo on the way.After asking, I realized that the southern army was in great strength, so I asked the emperor to go south and go to help you.
The general Yue Gang, who stood behind the eighth sister Yang Yanqi, was born with an eight-foot body, with a white face and three long beards. At this time, he bowed: The last general will meet the marshal.
Mu Guiying said happily: With the eight grandmother and General Yue helping each other, why worry about the injustice of the South?
Sister Yang Ba said: Huh?Guiying, why didn’t Miss Jinhua be seen?Since you left the capital, I have not seen her for several months. I miss her very much. Call her here and let me take care of her.
Upon hearing this, Mu Guiying immediately turned joy into sorrow and said sadly: The eighth aunt didn't know anything. The girl was careless the day before yesterday and was captured by the enemy. Now she is being involved in the camp, and her life and death are unknown.
What?Sister Yang Ba was shocked, how could this be done?When I take action, I will kill all the thief and rescue Jinhua!The eighth sister Yang Yanqi has never married for life, so she has no children in her knees. She regards Yang Jinhua as her own and loves her so much.
Mu Guiying said: The eight aunt came from afar, and she was covered in dust. It would be better to rest for a night in the camp and wait for the battle tomorrow to face the enemy.
Sister Yang Ba said: Gui Ying, Jinhua is trapped in the enemy camp, anything can happen.If the chastity is taken away by the enemy, how can she be a human being in the future?Without further ado, please give an order quickly and wait for me to take action to fight the enemy generals!
When Mu Guiying heard this, she was ashamed of shame.
At this moment, Bagu should not know that she was humiliated by the enemy. If she knew about this, how should she face it.
She stayed for a while and said: In terms of seniority, it is the eldest sister of the eighth aunt, and Guiying dared not blame her!
Sister Yang Bajie said: This is in the military camp, not in Tianbo Mansion, so naturally the military is legally entrusted with the superiority of the army.You are the Grand Marshal Pingnan, the emperor conferred the emperor, and I will obey your orders!
Mu Guiying had no choice but to enter the coach's tent, sit in the middle, throw a token, and say: I am the coach of the eighth aunt Yang Yanqi and General Jun Yue Gang, and lead the troops out of the camp to fight under the city of Pennsylvania!
The last general will receive the order!The two said in unison.
After receiving the general order, the two of them came out of the commander's tent, ordered the eight thousand troops they brought, left the gate, and came to the city of Pennsylvania.
The garrison of Pennsylvania was Lu Mao, a famous general of the Great Southern Kingdom. Seeing the Song army fighting, he hurriedly ordered the city to go out in full swing and form a formation under the city.
Standing firmly with his foot in the formation, Lu Mao rode out and said: Who is calling for the formation?Sign up quickly!
Sister Yang Ba took action and said: Your aunt is right!
Lu Mao looked closely and saw that there was a female general in the Song army formation. He asked: Are you the Grand Marshal of Pingnan Mu Guiying?
Sister Yang Ba said: Why do you need the marshal to take action personally if you kill a slut like you?I am the daughter of Yang Linggong of Tianbo Prefecture, and Yang Yanqi, the General of Pingshu!
Lu Mao smiled and said: It seems that there are really no one available for your Song Dynasty.How do you go into battle to kill the enemy? They are all wives and widows!
Sister Yang Ba said: Killing a person like you is enough, why do you need my Song family to come!
Lu Mao was furious and instigated the horse to slash it up.
When Yang Bajie first arrived in the Pingnan army, she was determined to save her granddaughter Jinhua, but she was not afraid. She raised her pear blossoms and embed her golden spear and went up to meet her.
The two fought for more than twenty rounds, and they saw that Yang Bajie's shooting skills were amazing and elusive. She stared at several vital points on the enemy's general and repeatedly attacked.Lu was already injured all over when he looked for a while and thought to himself: It is rumored that all the widows of the Yang family are as brave as men. When they see each other today, they are indeed well-known.If I continue fighting, I may lose my life here.
It’s better to withdraw your troops for the time being and make plans!After thinking about it, he flew into the city with a fake shot.
Sister Yang Ba was not willing to let him go so easily, and then he caught up with him with a gun.
When he chased the city, thousands of arrows were fired at the top of the city, and the rocks rolled in at the same time. He could not take the lead and had to withdraw his troops and return to the camp.
Sister Yang Bazhe entered the camp and saw Mu Guiying. She said angrily: It’s a pity that she failed to kill the thief general in the formation. When the battle will be fought again tomorrow, she will definitely present the head of Lu Mao to the tent!
Although Mu Guiying and Yang Bajie are one generation apart, they are of the same age. Bajie is not a few years older than Mu Guiying, so the two are often called sisters in the mansion.
At this time, Mu Guiying saw that her eight sister seemed unwilling to accept her, so she smiled and said: "Auntie, don't be anxious, I will surround the city tonight."Then Lu looked like a turtle in a jar, and it was like taking something out of his bag!
Before he finished speaking, a blue flag official came and said: Report to the Marshal, the enemy general Lu Mao saw that he was unable to defeat our army, and had already taken down the flag at the top of the city and fled towards Kunlun Pass.General Yang from the front camp ordered the villain to come and ask if he wanted to enter the city?
Sister Yang Ba said: That kid is smart and runs fast, otherwise he would have made his body and head different from him!
Mu Guiying said to the official of the Blue Banner: I will pass on the orders of the generals to enter the city to safeguard the people!
Lu Mao originally wanted to resist the city, but unexpectedly, when the Song army was just approaching the city, Yongzhou had issued an imperial edict to him.
He was asked to abandon Pennsylvania, preserve the main force, and all his troops were withdrawn into Kunlun Pass.
Lu Mao relied on his courage and was dissatisfied with something, and insisted on a decisive battle with the Song army.
The general Li Shun advised: The main force of our great southern country has been completely destroyed by the Guishui River. If he is like the defenders of Guizhou, Liuzhou, Yizhou and other cities, he will fight stubbornly by the city, and will be defeated one by one by the Song army.It is better to follow the will of the emperor, retreat into Kunlun, accumulate troops and horses to make a comeback!
When Lu Mao heard that he was right, he ordered the entire army to withdraw from the west of the city and head straight for Kunlun Pass.
To Mu Guiying's surprise, the Song army took Pennsylvania with almost no blood.
After taking down Pennzhou, it was not far from Yongzhou, and there was only a Kunlun Pass in the middle. It seemed that it was not far from the day when the army returned to the court.
After entering Pennsylvania, Mu Guiying ordered the soldiers of each battalion to post a banner to relieve the people.
When Yang Wenguang, the former army, heard that the eighth grandmother had arrived in the army, hurried to Shuaitang to visit.
Yang Paifeng also got up with his injuries and went to pay homage to Sister Ba.
The whole family gathered in Pennsylvania and was very happy, but it was a pity that it was missing.
On the second day, Shi Jian returned from Gongcheng and Zhaozhou with five hundred men to meet Mu Guiying and said: Marshal, the villain has buryed the bones of the five warriors and sent them to Tokyo for burial.Come and listen to it.
Mu Guiying said: The former Japanese general has discussed with General Yu, and after disguising himself as you go to Yongzhou after disguising yourself as a thief, Nong Zhigao and Thirty-six Caves.This is the original intention of the commander to you on that day, and General Yu also agrees very much.You can make some things right away and head to Yongzhou.
Shi Jian said: Marshal, the villain only wants to kill the thief, I don’t know if I can leave the villain to listen to it in the army.
Mu Guiying said: Our army has already arrived in Pennsylvania and will seize Kunlun Pass soon.There is a dangerous situation for one man to pass this pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it. If there are soldiers from the thirty-six caves to help, even if the Song army has more than one hundred thousand, it will never be able to break the pass.You are also serving the country, so don’t refuse.
Shi Jian said: Since the marshal said that, the villain obeys his orders.But there is something else that villains still have, and I don’t know whether to talk about it or not?
Mu Guiying said: If you have something to say, it doesn’t matter if you say it.
Shi Jian said: When the villain entered Pennsylvania City, he happened to meet two envoys from the Prince of Jiaozhi. He wanted to ask for a meeting with the marshal, saying that he had a major matter between the country and the country. I wonder if the marshal received it?
Prince of Jiaozhi?Sister Yang Bajie, who was sitting aside, wondered, what did they send envoys to do?
Mu Guiying said: Let’s summon them first and hear what they want to say?
After Shi Jian received the order, he went down to welcome the two envoys into the coach's hall and said: The person sitting on the table is Mu Guiying, the Grand Marshal of Pingnan who was granted by Zi Qin today.What's the point of you two? Just tell her.
Mu Guiying looked down at the hall and saw that the two envoys, one of whom was about thirty years old, and the other looked less than thirty years old. They were both white and beardless, thin and capable, with their eyes as if they were greedy and wicked, and they were sinister and ferocious. Although they did not look at each other, they kept looking around with their light.
Mu Guiying asked: I don’t know what the envoy has to come?
The two of them knelt down together, and the older messenger said: I am Li Changjie under the command of the Prince of Jiaozhi County.
He pointed to the younger man beside him and said: This is Li Changxian, the younger brother of the villain, who has met Marshal Pingnan of the Song Dynasty.
The messenger doesn’t have to be too polite, please get up quickly!Mu Guiying said, "My Song Dynasty and Jiaozhi have always been at peace. Today, the envoys entered our army. What are the important things?"
Li Changjie's voice was very thin, so thin that it was a little sharp, and it sounded like a woman: I have long heard of Marshal Mu's reputation as a master of all over the world, and I am honored by ancient and modern times. I am fortunate to see him today. It is really heroic and dare not look up to you!
Mu Guiying smiled and said: The messenger has been over-rewarded.Guiying is just a female player and dare not take on such a reputation!
Li Changjie then turned to the point: The marshal went south this time to rebel against Guangnan for the sake of Nong Zhigao.I think Nanonzhi Plateau is a rebel general of Jiaozhi, but because Jiaozhi cannot tolerate it, he rebelled south of the Celestial Empire.The prince had always had a good relationship with the Song court, and he was uneasy when he came out to disturb the heavenly dynasty.We will be ordered to lead 5,000 troops to the border. If the marshal agrees, the Jiaozhi soldiers will cross the border and attack Yongzhou from behind Kunlun Pass to welcome the marshal into the city.The marshal can suppress the thieves without bloodshed.I wonder what the marshal intended?
Mu Guiying pondered: Guiying appreciated the beauty of the Prince of Jiaozhi.However, this Guangnan area belongs to the territory of our Great Song Dynasty.If the bandits were in chaos here, the Song court should have sent troops to pacify the prince and dare not bother the prince.
Li Changjie was stunned and said: Is the marshal going to reject the prince?
Mu Guiying said: I dare not refuse, but since the king's army has arrived in Pennsylvania and defeated the thieves, it is a matter of time before the prince can worry about it.
Li Changjie said: Marshal Mu, do you know the danger of Kunlun Pass?Now that the Nong army is guarding each other, Yongzhou is gathering its troops again. If the Song army wants to break through the pass and enter the city, it will be difficult to reach the sky.Please think twice.Don’t let the soldiers be injured by the prince, and he will betray the prince.
Mu Guiying said: Please ask the envoy to tell the prince that on the day when Guiying pacified the thief, he would report to the emperor to make the two countries aligned with the Qin and Jin.
Li Changjie stood up with an angry expression, but he still said politely: Since this is the case, the lower official should report the truth to the prince.
Mu Guiying said to the left and right: Arrange a comfortable place for the messenger!
No need!Li Changjie said, the officials dare not disturb them too much, so they just parted.
Li Changxian also looked up at Mu Guiying and said: Marshal Mu, there will be a date in the future! After saying that, the two brothers shook their sleeves and left.
When the messenger walked away, Jiao Tinggui said angrily: This messenger is so rude!
Sister Yang Ba asked: Guiying, why did you refuse Jiaozhi's kindness?
Mu Guiying said: The eighth aunt doesn’t know that Li Foma, the prince of Jiaozhi, has always been ambitions and is not inferior to Xia Liao. This time, he deliberately flatters me, and must have intentions.It is better to reject it to avoid future troubles.
Meng Dingguo smiled and said, Marshal, you are too worried!Although we do not need to rely on its troops to break through Yongzhou, we thought that Li Foma was a mere county prince. Could it be that he would still be greedy for the territory of our Song Dynasty?
Mu Guiying said: After the battle between Gui, Liu and Yi, the main force of the Nong thief has almost been exhausted. No matter how many people gather in Yongzhou, it is difficult to have hundreds of thousands of people in a while.Now that our army is stationed in Pennzhou, it is only a short distance from Yongzhou. Why bother to lead the wolf into the house and seek troubles for yourself!
Meng Ding Guodao: How could this lead a wolf into the house?
Mu Guiying said: If Jiaozhi County has the heart to help, it can send troops long before the general arrives.Otherwise, when this commander is in Guizhou, he can also send troops, and it is not too late.However, at that time, a hundred thousand people gathered in Yongzhou, and the popularity was unparalleled, so he dispatched troops to the border to watch.Even when Nong Zhigao's army was in full swing, there was no restraint.Now that I saw that I was annihilated all his troops, the situation was clear, I planned to cross the border and share a cup of soup.
Meng Dingguo slapped the table and cursed: Unexpectedly, Li Foma had such a trick, but fortunately the marshal did not agree to him!
Mu Guiying continued: Nowadays, Nong Zhigao is at the end of his strength, and the mountains and rivers are over. At this time, Jiaozhi County has been watching the fire across the bank for a long time, but he has not had the order of his commander and dared not cross the border.If the general agreed to his request, he would take it as his own when he conquered Yongzhou.At that time, you will occupy Kunlun Pass again to resist the king's army. Then you and I will do anything to him.Do you want to fight against a group of bandits who are in a state of decline, or fight against a whole country's soldiers at the height of the sky?I guess I don’t need to say much, I know in my heart.
Sister Yang Ba praised: Gui Ying is resourceful and really a handsome talent.If you don’t point out and look at the road of Jiaozhi County, we still don’t know it!
Outside Pennsylvania City, Li Changjie and Li Changxian walked together in the wilderness.
Li Changxian asked: Brother, Marshal Mu will not let us cross the border, what should we do?
Li Changjie said: Let’s go back to the border first, hold on to the army and act according to the opportunity!He looked back at the towering city walls in Pennsylvania and said hatefully: Mu Guiying, one day, you will regret your decision today!
After capturing Liuzhou, the army rested for five days. After Yang Paifeng's troops who had gone to defeat Yizhou, they rushed to join him before they rose up and went straight to Pennsylvania.
It is more than 300 miles from Liuzhou to Bienzhou. Along the way, there are Xiangzhou Defense Prefecture, Wuxian, Yangshou and other counties, and they also defeat Wuhua, Laibin and other counties, which greatly boosted their military power.
In more than ten days, I arrived at the foot of Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania is already the depth of the Great Southern Kingdom. It is less than fifty miles away from the state, so it is already Kunlun Pass. As long as you cross Kunlun, you can go straight to Yongzhou, wipe out the Great Southern Kingdom, and capture and kill Nong Zhigao.
On this day, the army arrived at the city of Pennsylvania and set up camp twenty miles away.
Just after he settled the three armies in front and back, he suddenly heard the guards report: Report to the marshal, the latter general Chen Shu had already cleared the remaining bandits in Jinghu and led the army of his troops to meet!
Mu Guiying was overjoyed when she heard this and hurriedly summoned Chen Shu to the front and said: With the help of the public, our three armies are even more powerful, and Pennsylvania is within reach!
When Mrs. Chen saw her husband return, she was overjoyed and followed Mu Guiying out of the tent to greet her.
The couple met and couldn't help but feel moved.
After the two of them had a separation, Chen Shu said: Marshal, I will bring two more people here.
oh?Mu Guiying asked in confusion, who is that?
Chen Shu hurriedly turned his body to the side and bowed slightly and said: Grandma Eighth, please come here!
At this time, two men and women walked out of the crowd. The leader was a middle-aged beautiful woman, who was less than fifty years old, and she still had charm.
Although her temples were slightly white, her skin was still as tight as a girl, and her temperament was skillful, just like the Queen Mother of the West walking down from Kunlun Mountain.
I only heard her voice as pleasant as a silver bell: Guiying, I haven't seen her for many days, so I'm fine!
When Mu Guiying saw this, she hurriedly bowed: Bagu, why are you here?
It turned out that this middle-aged beautiful woman was the eighth grandmother of Tianbo Mansion and the eighth sister of Liulang Yang Yanzhao.
When she saw Mu Guiying ask, she said: Shortly after you left Tianbo Mansion, the emperor issued another order to grant me the title of General Pingshu, and together with Yue Gang, we went to the two rivers to quell the bandits and rebellion.In the past few days, the war in Sichuan has been settled. The commander-in-chief returned to the court, but unexpectedly he met your envoy sent to Tokyo on the way.After asking, I realized that the southern army was in great strength, so I asked the emperor to go south and go to help you.
The general Yue Gang, who stood behind the eighth sister Yang Yanqi, was born with an eight-foot body, with a white face and three long beards. At this time, he bowed: The last general will meet the marshal.
Mu Guiying said happily: With the eight grandmother and General Yue helping each other, why worry about the injustice of the South?
Sister Yang Ba said: Huh?Guiying, why didn’t Miss Jinhua be seen?Since you left the capital, I have not seen her for several months. I miss her very much. Call her here and let me take care of her.

On the second day, Shi Jian returned from Gongcheng and Zhaozhou with five hundred men to meet Mu Guiying and said: Marshal, the villain has buryed the bones of the five warriors and sent them to Tokyo for burial.Come and listen to it.
Mu Guiying said: The former Japanese general has discussed with General Yu, and after disguising himself as you go to Yongzhou after disguising yourself as a thief, Nong Zhigao and Thirty-six Caves.This is the original intention of the commander to you on that day, and General Yu also agrees very much.You can make some things right away and head to Yongzhou.

Mu Guiying asked: I don’t know what the envoy has to come?
The two of them knelt down together, and the older messenger said: I am Li Changjie under the command of the Prince of Jiaozhi County.
He pointed to the younger man beside him and said: This is Li Changxian, the younger brother of the villain, who has met Marshal Pingnan of the Song Dynasty.
The messenger doesn’t have to be too polite, please get up quickly!Mu Guiying said, "My Song Dynasty and Jiaozhi have always been at peace. Today, the envoys entered our army. What are the important things?"

I am fortunate to see him today. It is really heroic and dare not look up to you!
Mu Guiying smiled and said: The messenger has been over-rewarded.Guiying is just a female player and dare not take on such a reputation!
Li Changjie then turned to the point: The marshal went south this time to rebel against Guangnan for the sake of Nong Zhigao.I think Nanonzhi Plateau is a rebel general of Jiaozhi, but because Jiaozhi cannot tolerate it, he rebelled south of the Celestial Empire.The prince had always had a good relationship with the Song court, and he was uneasy when he came out to disturb the heavenly dynasty.We will be ordered to lead 5,000 troops to the border. If the marshal agrees, the Jiaozhi soldiers will cross the border and attack Yongzhou from behind Kunlun Pass to welcome the marshal into the city.The marshal can suppress the thieves without bloodshed.I wonder what the marshal intended?
Mu Guiying pondered: Guiying appreciated the beauty of the Prince of Jiaozhi.However, this Guangnan area belongs to the territory of our Great Song Dynasty.If the bandits were in chaos here, the Song court should have sent troops to pacify the prince and dare not bother the prince.
Li Changjie was stunned and said: Is the marshal going to reject the prince?
Mu Guiying said: I dare not refuse, but since the king's army has arrived in Pennsylvania and defeated the thieves, it is a matter of time before the prince can worry about it.
Li Changjie said: Marshal Mu, do you know the danger of Kunlun Pass?Now that the Nong army is guarding each other, Yongzhou is gathering its troops again. If the Song army wants to break through the pass and enter the city, it will be difficult to reach the sky.Please think twice.Don’t let the soldiers be injured by the prince, and he will betray the prince.
Mu Guiying said: Please ask the envoy to tell the prince that on the day when Guiying pacified the thief, he would report to the emperor to make the two countries aligned with the Qin and Jin.
Li Changjie stood up with an angry expression, but he still said politely: Since this is the case, the lower official should report the truth to the prince.
Mu Guiying said to the left and right: Arrange a comfortable place for the messenger!
No need!Li Changjie said, the officials dare not disturb them too much, so they just parted.
Li Changxian also looked up at Mu Guiying and said: Marshal Mu, there will be a date in the future! After saying that, the two brothers shook their sleeves and left.
When the messenger walked away, Jiao Tinggui said angrily: This messenger is so rude!
Sister Yang Ba asked: Guiying, why did you refuse Jiaozhi's kindness?
Mu Guiying said: The eighth aunt doesn’t know that Li Foma, the prince of Jiaozhi, has always been ambitions and is not inferior to Xia Liao. This time, he deliberately flatters me, and must have intentions.It is better to reject it to avoid future troubles.
Meng Dingguo smiled and said, Marshal, you are too worried!Although we do not need to rely on its troops to break through Yongzhou, we thought that Li Foma was a mere county prince. Could it be that he would still be greedy for the territory of our Song Dynasty?
Mu Guiying said: After the battle between Gui, Liu and Yi, the main force of the Nong thief has almost been exhausted. No matter how many people gather in Yongzhou, it is difficult to have hundreds of thousands of people in a while.Now that our army is stationed in Pennzhou, it is only a short distance from Yongzhou. Why bother to lead the wolf into the house and seek troubles for yourself!
Meng Ding Guodao: How could this lead a wolf into the house?
Mu Guiying said: If Jiaozhi County has the heart to help, it can send troops long before the general arrives.Otherwise, when this commander is in Guizhou, he can also send troops, and it is not too late.However, at that time, a hundred thousand people gathered in Yongzhou, and the popularity was unparalleled, so he dispatched troops to the border to watch.Even when Nong Zhigao's army was in full swing, there was no restraint.Now that I saw that I was annihilated all his troops, the situation was clear, I planned to cross the border and share a cup of soup.
Meng Dingguo slapped the table and cursed: Unexpectedly, Li Foma had such a trick, but fortunately the marshal did not agree to him!
Mu Guiying continued: Nowadays, Nong Zhigao is at the end of his strength, and the mountains and rivers are over. At this time, Jiaozhi County has been watching the fire across the bank for a long time, but he has not had the order of his commander and dared not cross the border.If the general agreed to his request, he would take it as his own when he conquered Yongzhou.At that time, you will occupy Kunlun Pass again to resist the king's army. Then you and I will do anything to him.Do you want to fight against a group of bandits who are in a state of decline, or fight against a whole country's soldiers at the height of the sky?I guess I don’t need to say much, I know in my heart.
Sister Yang Ba praised: Gui Ying is resourceful and really a handsome talent.If you don’t point out and look at the road of Jiaozhi County, we still don’t know it!
Outside Pennsylvania City, Li Changjie and Li Changxian walked together in the wilderness.
Li Changxian asked: Brother, Marshal Mu will not let us cross the border, what should we do?
Li Changjie said: Let’s go back to the border first, hold on to the army and act according to the opportunity!He looked back at the towering city walls in Pennsylvania and said hatefully: Mu Guiying, one day, you will regret your decision today!
