After a brief depression, Meng Yan finally ran away and shouted loudly: "Come here!"

The guards had already entered the tent and clasped their fists and replied: "Here!"

Meng Yan groaned and shouted loudly: "Immediately call the officers above the division commander to come to the headquarters to discuss matters!"

"yes!"

The Guards agreed and took the order.

Shi Miyuan and Pu Sanzhi could only look at each other and smile bitterly. Meng Yan summoned all the officers above the division commander to discuss the matter. The purpose was obvious, and that was to send troops.

In less than a cup of tea, the five division commanders of the Guards and their respective chiefs of staff came to Mengyan's headquarters. According to the military system of the Guanghui Empire, the eight local legions had only four divisions, while the Guards had five divisions, and the imperial guards directly under the emperor had six divisions and two heavy armored knights.

Meng Yan's cold eyes swept across the faces of the generals one by one, and finally fell on Shi Miyuan, saying in a muffled voice: "The little king just received an emergency of 800 miles. Xiling is already in danger. As the saying goes, rescue troops are like putting out fires. I decided to send troops immediately, and the entire army rushed to Xiling at a rapid speed to marching!"

The generals looked at each other.

Han Feng, the commander of the First Division, even further flashed out and said loudly: "Your Highness, before the Northwest Legion and the Southwest Legion arrive to join, the Guards must not advance rashly."

Yu Longyun, the commander of the Third Division, also came out and agreed: "Your Highness, General Han Feng is right. Situ Rui's old man is not easy to deal with, and it is even more inappropriate to rush to Xiling to marches. After arriving in Xiling, our army is already trapped and exhausted. If the Mingyue Empire Army takes the opportunity to attack, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Okay, there's nothing to say."

Meng Yan suddenly raised his hand to stop the quarrel of the generals and said coldly, "This is a military order and must be implemented."

Several division commanders flattened their mouths and did not say anything more. Since Meng Yan had issued a military order, as soldiers, they could only execute the orders. Shi Miyuan and Pu Sanzhi knew Meng Yan's temper even more. At this time, they could only make things boring. Meng Yan was ruthless but his relatives refused to recognize him.

Park Sanzhi hesitated for a long time, and then left the line and asked carefully: "Your Highness, after the Guards Army set out first, how should we arrange the solemn Northwest Army and Leyu's Southwest Army?"

Meng Yan said in a deep voice: "Transfer to Zheng Chongguang and Le Yu in an urgent manner with eight hundred miles, telling them that they don't have to come to Yanmen Pass again, and let them lead their troops to Xiling directly to meet with me!"

The western province, Qingniutun.

Meng Hu stepped into Zhang Xingba's home with a hare he had just hunted, and Qi Diaozi followed behind like a shadow as usual.

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Zhang Xingba holding a stone lion naked in the yard. Meng Hu had a rough eye to see that the stone lion that Zhang Xingba used as a toy should weigh more than a thousand pounds. This guy's lever is indeed amazing. No wonder the double iron halberd weighing more than a hundred pounds in his hand was as light as nothing.

Zhang Xingba's physique was particularly amazing. He was shot in his thigh and left shoulder respectively, and his right shoulder was stabbed by a knife. This guy just casually tinkered with a little herb paste on the wound and bandaged it randomly with a linen. After only two days, he was like nothing happened.

Seeing Meng Hu, Zhang Xingba quickly threw away the stone lion in his hand and came forward: "General, why are you here?"

Meng Hu frowned and said, "Your injuries have not healed yet, why are you still playing such a heavy stone lion?"

"The villain can't stay idle." Zhang Xingba scratched his head and smiled, "The villain has been used to playing tricks since he was a child, and he will feel uncomfortable if he doesn't play for a day."

"Here, this is for you." Meng Hu handed the hare in his hand to Zhang Xingba, "stew the soup and replenish it."

"How dare you take this?" Zhang Xingba said embarrassedly, "How can a villain take the general's prey?"

Meng Hu said: "This is a military order, don't forget that you are now a soldier of the Fourth Division."

"Why."

Zhang Xingba responded silly and took the hare from Meng Hu.

Meng Hu turned around and glanced at Qi Diaozi. Qi Diaozi understood and stepped forward and smiled, "Brother Xingba, you are the head of Qingniu Tun. Do you know if there is any excess food in the village?"

"The excess grain?" Zhang Xingba shook his head like a rattle. "Most of the grain grown by the villagers paid the land rent, and the rest was not enough to eat. There was no excess grain... Hey, there was not no grain. There were two large granaries in the north of the village, which were filled with grain, but they were from Mr. Zhang in the county."

“How much food is there in the granary?”

Meng Hu's eyes lit up when he heard this. As long as there is food, no matter whether he belongs to Mr. Zhang or Mr. Li, he will be requisitioned!

Zhang Xingbadao: "In previous years, the two granaries were empty most of the time, and they only temporarily stored the grain when paying the land rent. However, since the Mingyue bandits came in, Mr. Zhang transported all the grain from the county warehouse into the mountains, so it was full of food, at least tens of thousands of kilograms."

Meng Hu's heart moved. This is the case in Qingniu Tun, so is there such a situation in other Tuns?

Qi Diaozi knew what Meng Hu was thinking, so he asked quickly: "Brother Xingba, is this happening in other places?"

Zhang Xingba scratched his head and said, "It's almost the same, at least that's the case for Baishizitun."

Qi Diaozi asked casually: "Bai Shizitun?"

Zhang Xing was domineering: "Just west of Qingniu Tun, across the Six Daoliang, you have to walk more than ten miles of mountain roads. Most of the villagers in Baishizitun are tenant farmers of Mr. Wang in the county. After the Mingyue bandits came in, Mr. Wang, like Mr. Zhang, transported all the grains from the county's warehouse into the mountains and placed them in the grains of Baishizitun."

Meng Hu suddenly felt like he had a lot of mountains and rivers and no way out, and there was another village with dark willows and flowers.

I was originally worried about the problem of food, but I didn’t expect it to be solved so easily. Qingniu Tun and Baishizi Tun are like this, and the other villages are probably similar. The same should be true for the villages on the northern foot of Qingniu Mountain. The Mingyue bandits launched a large-scale invasion and hiding the food into the mountains is a wise move.

Speaking of which, I really have to thank those nobles. If they hadn't sent someone to transport the food into the mountains, I would have been afraid that the food would have fallen into the hands of the Mingyue Empire Army, and Meng Hu's "peasant army" would have gone hungry.

"Let's go." Meng Hu waved his hand and said to Zhang Xing's domineeringly, "Take me to the granary to have a look."

Zhang Xingba took Meng Hu and Qi Diaozi out of the yard as soon as he walked out of the yard, and met the leopard who was in a hurry. When he saw Meng Hu, the leopard couldn't help but take the lead and knelt on one knee and replied: "General, just now he was procuring a horse to report, and a large group of enemy troops outside the mountain, with at least one division of more than 20,000 people."

"Yeah?"

Meng Hu frowned suddenly, and after thinking about it, he turned around and ordered Zhang Xing to domineeringly, "Xingzi, immediately send Tun Ding to control the granary of Mr. Zhang's house, and then all the gates are dispatched to bring the dustpan baskets to Baishizitun to transport grain, and try to transport all the grain in Mr. Li's granary of Mr. Li's house back to Qingniu Tun before dark!"

Zhang Xing domineeringly: "But Mr. Li's granary is guarded by his servants. What should they do if they don't let them move?"

A trace of murderous intent suddenly erupted at the corner of Meng Hu's mouth, and he said with a grim voice: "If the servant dares to stop him, he will be killed without mercy!"

"Okay." Zhang Xingba patted his chest and said loudly, "With the general's words, the villain dares to hold a knife to chop people."

After saying that, Zhang Xingba immediately left and flew away. In less than a moment, Zhang Xingba's thunderous roar sounded in the village: "Listen, the villagers in the village, listen, the general said, let everyone take the winnowing baskets and baskets to Baishizi Village to transport grain. Regardless of men, women, old or young, as long as they can leave, they will bring the equipment and go with me..."

Meng Hu smiled slightly, turned around and said to the leopard, "Go and go to the mountain pass to take a look."

Qingniutun’s southern foothill mountain pass.

Yan Changkong's Third Division has arrived and is preparing to camp outside the mountain pass.

Taking advantage of the gap between the army camping, Yan Changkong led a small team of guards to sneak into Qingniu Mountain along the mountain path, intending to sneak into the situation in the mountains. After walking like a headless fly in the mountains for a long time, he finally found a steep lonely peak. The lone peak is very good and you should be able to see the general situation in the mountains. Yan Changkong is very skilled and brave, so he immediately decided to go up the lone peak and take a look.

What Yan Changkong never expected was that Meng Hu was also climbing up the northern foot of the lonely peak.

The geographical location of this lonely peak can be said to be unique. Standing on the top of the peak, you can not only see the general situation in the mountains, but also see the situation of the official road outside the mountain pass. Meng Hu even sent someone to build an arrow tower on the top of the mountain, leaving three soldiers to guard it specifically to monitor the movement of the official road outside the mountain pass.

On the arrow tower made of wooden stakes, cow hair holding a long bow is on guard.

The mountain wind was whistling and the pine waves were gushing. When Niu Mao was concentrating on monitoring the movements of the bright moon army outside the mountain, he suddenly heard a slight abnormal sound in his ears. At the same time, he also found that a cluster of shrubs on the south hillside seemed to sway slightly. Without any hesitation, Niu Mao took his bow and arrow and shot it.

A flash of cold light, and sharp arrows sank into the bushes. The next moment, a shrill scream rang out from behind the bushes.

Hearing this scream, Niu Mao was shocked, because it was obviously not the scream of birds and beasts, but people!

"Who? Come out!"

The hairs of the cow's hair stood up. It was impossible for the hunter and woodcutter in the mountains to climb up this lonely peak. It was impossible for the one who was sneaking up. Could it be the scout of the bandits outside the mountains? The sound of footsteps of the dongdong dongdong came from behind. The ox horns sleeping downstairs were also alarmed by the screams of the cow's hair and rushed to the arrow tower in a mess.

"What did you find?"

The ox horns rushed to grab the ox hair.

The figures of the two were overlaid. A wolf-toothed arrow shot out from behind the bushes just now. The sharp arrow cluster tore the air and let out a hissing roar. A flash of cold light, the sharp arrow cluster had already shot through the throat of the cow's hair, and the remaining momentum was still shot through the cow's horn's neck. Finally, it was nailed to the wooden wall of the arrow tower with a loud noise.

"Puff."

The ox horns and ox hair strong body shook twice and fell to the ground dejectedly.

Niu Gen was shocked and rushed to escape. Another arrow shot and nailed him to death on the wooden wall.
