Chapter 14
What's more, you also said, "The third prince's Danfeng eyes scanned the audience, it sounded like he was asking for everyone's opinions, but in fact, the third prince was just informing everyone of his decision.
"Chongzhou lacks soldiers and horses, and it is difficult to win. If I go to sit in the town, the soldiers will have more courage, higher morale, and a higher winning rate."
When the third prince swept past Xie Wuyuan, he finished the rest in one breath.
Forget it.
Xie Wuyuan sighed.
It's not a big deal, although it hinders the plan, but Xie Wuyuan thought to himself, he can still protect Tan Zimo.
"Are you really going?" Xie Wuyuan looked serious.
"En." The third prince stared straight into Xie Wuyuan's eyes without any hesitation, and his attitude was very firm.
"Yes." Xie Wuyuan finally let go.
"No, absolutely not—"
Fan Jinghui was stunned, his eyes wandered around the faces of Xie Wuyuan and the third prince, trying to find a way to persuade these two ancestors who did not play cards according to common sense.
"It's okay," Xie Wuyuan said, his tone was flat, but he succeeded in irritating the anxious Fan Jinghui,
Xie Wuyuan took the third prince's free hand with one hand, and with the other hand, he took the zhezi out of the third prince's hand and threw it to Fan Jinghui.
"I'm with him."
"Chongzhou's affairs are entrusted to you, Fan Jinghui, take care of yourself and pay more attention to food and grass."
I don't worry about leaving it to you!
Do you think you are the Great Luo Jinxian who can protect the third prince comprehensively? !
Don't you look at Fei Hefeng, alone, with high martial arts?Are you strong? !
Look at Fei Hefeng!What has he made of himself? !
Just you, Xie Wuyuan, do you still expect to protect the third prince? !
A string of words circled around Fan Jinghui's mouth, before swallowing them all.
Fan Jinghui was roaring in his heart, but he also knew that if anyone in this world could stop the third prince, it would only be Xie Wuyuan.
Right now, Xie Wuyuan was moved by the third prince, and indulged in their Highness's nonsense, the remaining subordinates, they can only watch and hope, hoping that nothing will happen to the third prince.
Fan Jinghui sighed, rolled up the notebook casually, and threw it to the subordinate officer beside him.
"I will pay attention to food and grass, take care of your highness, and be careful on the road."
"Do not."
The third prince interrupted Fan Jinghui, turned his head to look at Xie Wuyuan, and said firmly, "Xie Wuyuan, you stay."
"You stay here."
The third prince repeated it again.
Xie Wuyuan looked at him with raised eyebrows, but didn't speak.
The third prince's pretty eyebrows showed a little impatient look.
"Fan Jinghui doesn't understand anything, I feel more at ease if you stay here."
The front line is too dangerous to let Xie Wuyuan take this risk.
The third prince tightly clenched his fists, restraining his urge to stick to Xie Wuyuan's side all the time, and spoke in a calm tone, asking Xie Wuyuan to stay behind.
"It's okay, don't worry about things in Chongzhou County."
Xie Wuyuan said in a neutral manner, and arranged Fan Jinghui's affairs along the way.
"As for what you're worried about, if Fan Jinghui is really unsure, how many people are in the barracks? I'll see how many people there are in the past few months. I'll ask them to report to Fan Jinghui later."
Xie Wuyuan turned his head to look at Fan Jinghui.
"If you don't know how to deal with something, you can ask them."
Fan Jinghui nodded in response. Although he disliked Xie Wuyuan in some aspects, he had to say that what Xie Wuyuan said was very useful in these matters.
The third prince wanted to persuade him again, but was stopped by Xie Wuyuan's words.
"Nothing in the world is as important as your safety."
Xie Wuyuan said so.
"I promised you, with me here, you don't need to worry about protecting yourself."
The third prince was dumbfounded immediately, his face blushed indistinctly, and he was at a loss for words for a moment, unable to answer.
In the end, the third prince and Xie Wuyuan went to the battlefield together.
Xie Wuyuan held the crimson cloud bow, and the hand holding the bow had bulging veins, ready to go.
The long and narrow eyelashes hang down, covering the expression in the eyes.

The author has something to say: the second
☆、Chapter 125
Xie Wuyuan served as the county lieutenant of Chongzhou County earlier, and stayed in the barracks for a while.
Therefore, Xie Wuyuan has a good understanding of the generals' behavior and fighting style.
At this time, although he came here in a hurry from Chongzhou, he was not considered an airborne, let alone a novice. Strictly speaking, Xie Wuyuan, as the county lieutenant of Chongzhou County, was the immediate superior of these soldiers. It was also very smooth to dispatch the generals.
"When the book is used, you will hate less, and you will not know the difficulty unless you have passed through it."
Xie Wuyuan sighed softly as he looked at the formation he had drawn according to the model in the study notes.
The formation is still the same formation, but I don't know what the effect will be.
Xie Wuyuan had read a lot of military books when he was young, and he thought he was good at marching troops, but when it really came time to use it, even though Xie Wuyuan was used to being calm, he didn't have much confidence at the moment.
In other words, Xie Wuyuan was able to command the generals to line up the army calmly at this moment, all because of the coercion accumulated over the years of arranging things.
We can roughly call it the calmness of mystery.
"This formation looks very strange."
The third prince sat on the desk beside him, watching Xie Wuyuan play with the sand table beside him, constantly evolving and deducing, simulating fighting.
"Yeah." Xie Wuyuan nodded, and explained casually without raising his head, "Qiao Nan has never used these formations, let alone the emperor, the previous emperor didn't even know about it."
"If it succeeds, what about victory or defeat?" The third prince suddenly became interested and asked.
Xie Wuyuan pondered for a moment and gave an approximate number.
"Let's fight ten with one."
"Win more with less?" The third prince asked repeatedly, his excitement and joy couldn't be concealed in his words.
"Don't be too happy," Xie Wuyuan sighed, "This formation can only be used once. I don't have much research on the evolution of formations. It's good enough to follow the script. Don't expect me to change this formation 36 times. , 72 changes."
"Oh," the third prince turned his head sullenly, and then as if thinking of something, Danfeng's eyes brightened, and he added excitedly, "That's not bad, let's kill their prestige first, and boost their morale."
"En." Xie Wuyuan nodded.
When the third prince and the others first arrived at the border, the soldiers of Chongzhou County were also very prestigious and fought victoriously for a while.
Everyone saw the third prince Qi Wei Wang coming in person, from the generals to the soldiers, everyone seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and they wanted to rush to fight the Turks.
He came and went again and again, and won many times.
Xie Wuyuan's formation was deduced quickly, and Xie Wuyuan was quite satisfied with the improved formation, so he ordered it to be arranged, and he just waited to see the final result.
The crowd is passionate.
Xie Wuyuan commanded well, and the soldiers below cooperated well.
"Come on!"
"Your Highness can come to the battlefield in person, why can't we go all out?"
"Kill all the Turks!"
Fei Hefeng led everyone to fight together on the front line. Xie Wuyuan sometimes appeared on the battlefield, but he rarely went down to fight. His main task was to protect the third prince.
Nothing is as important as the safety of the Third Prince.
This is Xie Wuyuan's heartfelt voice.
Even if he risked the disgrace of the world, contacted the Turks in private, and even deliberately framed the He family, all of these were just to satisfy Tan Zimo's wish, so that Tan Zimo could ascend the throne in a legitimate way.
If Tan Zimo is gone, all of this will be meaningless.
In the first few months, there were many good news at the border.
"Report, today's record, the border is connected with the Turks, and our army won again."
"Report, our army has won a big victory."
"Report, the Turks retreated three miles away."
……
The third prince sat in the main tent, listening to waves of messengers reporting the good news non-stop, and he felt very relieved.
The front line is very long, and the combat time is also very long.
From March, almost until June, a full three months.
From the harvest of vegetation in spring to the abundance of fruits, from the spring rain to the warm wind in summer.
From the abundance of food and grass to the lack of payment of military pay.
The third prince sighed.
"The food and grass of the Turks should also be exhausted."
"En." Xie Wuyuan responded in a low voice, but he didn't know where his mind was wandering.
The third prince was concentrating on watching the Turkic battle flag in the distance, estimating the situation of the battle, but he didn't see anything strange about Xie Wuyuan.
The third prince continued.
"I have calculated that according to the situation in previous years, in ten days, the Turks will run out of ammunition and food."
Xie Wuyuan nodded, with a calm tone: "If everything is normal, we will be able to return to Chongzhou County in a few days."
For a long while, there was silence.
Fei Hefeng came down from the front line, covered in blood, and came in to report.
"Just now we faced off against the Turks again. We killed [-] Turks and lost [-]."
Xie Wuyuan nodded.
"Well, it's normal to lose [-]. This formation is indeed not very powerful. It's normal for the opponent to break it."
After changing the subject, Xie Wuyuan continued to ask.
"How much food is left?"
Fei Hefeng sighed: "It's less than three days."
The third prince frowned, then turned to Fei Hefeng and asked, "How many days are left for the military salary in the court?"
Fei Hefeng sighed: "Chaoli's military salary has not been sent."
The third prince's face was full of disbelief: "How could it be? I wrote the paper early in the morning and handed it in. There's no reason for the emperor not to see it?!"
A trace of apology flashed across Xie Wuyuan's slender eyes, but only for a moment, before disappearing in an instant.
All that could be seen were his narrow eyebrows, tightly wrinkled.
"The emperor doesn't know that there is a war here?" Xie Wuyuan asked.
"I probably know it," the third prince sighed, "I handed over the brochure, but there has been no reply so far."
Xie Wuyuan frowned again, did not continue to dwell on this topic, and asked another question instead.
"Where's the grain and grass in Chongzhou County? There must be a granary."
The third prince propped his forehead with one hand, waved to one of his subordinates, motioning him to tell Xie Wuyuan.
"Reporting to Commander Qi, our granary in Chongzhou County has long been empty."
empty?
Xie Wuyuan's eyes darkened, his expression was unclear.
The third prince sighed, and continued the man's words: "In the past few years, the earth dragon has turned around, and the granary is almost empty. Where can there be food and wages?"
"What happened to Chaoli?" Xie Wuyuan asked, "Did Chaoli explain it?"
The third prince sighed again.
"There was a large-scale drought in the Liang Dynasty this year, and Emperor Liang Ming was busy dispatching manpower to relieve the disaster. It was too late to send manpower to Chongjun, and it was too late to send military salaries here."
Xie Wuyuan didn't say anything more, turned around and went back to the tent, wrote a letter, and sent it out overnight.
Chongzhou County.
No food for three full days.
The military pay was delayed, and the morale of the soldiers, which was originally high, also declined.
"How to do?"
After calming down a wave of soldiers making trouble, Fei Hefeng cried in front of Xie Wuyuan and the third prince with a sad face.
"I can't hold it back at all. This nearly three-year friendship is so useless at the critical moment?!"
"Friendship," Xie Wuyuan sneered, "After you eat bran swallowed vegetables with the soldiers, you can talk about friendship with them."
"Ah?" Fei He Feng's eyes widened in disbelief, "They still care about what I eat?"
Xie Wuyuan sneered: "What's the matter, people have worked so hard for you, they have run out of food, and the soldiers are not allowed to see what you eat?"
"It's no wonder that the soldiers have been making trouble these past few days. It turns out that the problem lies here." The third prince was stunned, and immediately ordered, "All the generals and soldiers share the joys and sorrows, and the rules are the same."
The rest of the food was shared equally among all the soldiers, and they only drank a bowl of porridge every day, which was enough for another five days.
At the beginning, the generals still had lumps in their hearts, why should they distribute their food to the soldiers, and they complained about the third prince in their hearts.
After the third prince heard this, he specially summoned all the generals and held a meeting for them.
Brainwashing Conference.
Needless to say, the third prince is actually very imposing and can scare people in front of others.
"I think everyone knows the importance of this battle."
A concise opening statement.
"We stayed in this poor country for three full years, for what?"
The generals were thoughtful.
"Isn't it just to win the other two princes and successfully obtain the qualification of crown prince?"
Some of the generals nodded. Indeed, their group of people followed the third prince, isn't it just to follow the dragon?
The third prince observed the expressions of the generals and struck while the iron was hot.
"If today's war is defeated, then we will stay in the fief for the rest of our lives."
The generals changed their colors one after another, and staying in such a remote place was more unacceptable than killing them.
"Fight!"
I don't know who shouted something in the crowd, and all the generals also followed suit.
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
The crowd is passionate.
Xie Wuyuan exchanged glances with the third prince on the stage, quietly withdrew from the crowd, and returned to the tent.
The author has something to say: the third
☆、Chapter 126
Xie Wuyuan took the lead in responding and set an example for the officers.
Not only do they go in and out with ordinary soldiers every day, but they also eat together.
When a soldier eats bran, he eats bran, and when a soldier swallows vegetables, he swallows vegetables.
Refuse to open any form, any sense of the small.
Not only that, Xie Wuyuan also distributed the food and grass he brought to the soldiers, and sometimes the food was not as good as the soldiers.
The officers and soldiers looked at this young master from the capital, and they suppressed all their original discussions.
Everyone knows how Xie Wuyuan's family is. This little son of the Xie family has been pampered since he was a child, and he has been raised there since he was a child. He has never suffered outside.
But now, following them, a group of big bosses, eating bran and swallowing vegetables together, everyone has no food to eat, so the soldiers feel better.
What's more, in the previous victories, Xie Wuyuan has already proved with his strength that he really has the ability to become the county captain of Chongzhou County.
There are people in Chongzhou who don't know Xie Wuyuan.
Few people don't know the name Xie Wuyuan.
Xie Wuyuan made a move to replace the house he was originally living in with a wooden house, which saved the entire Chongzhou County from the death of more than a hundred people. This kind of thing, anyone would take it to heart.
What's more, Xie Wuyuan specially sent people to compose nursery rhymes and spread them in the streets and alleys in order to make the battle bigger.
The people are ignorant, but the people are also simple.
The soldiers who came out to serve in the army saw this young man who came from the capital and was kind to the whole Chongzhou County, following behind everyone, eating together for the last meal without the next meal.
Naturally, there was no other idea, and everyone died down, and did not continue to make trouble.
It's just that the internal affairs of the army in Chongzhou County have been resolved, but the Turkic affairs are still pending.
The Turkic battle line is very long this time, and the food and grass are also well prepared, which is completely different from the past.
The third prince stared at the Turkic army with suspicion on his face.
"Impossible. According to the weight of the previous ruts, the depth of the marks left by the ruts, logically speaking, it is already a miracle that it can last until now."
"How come the Turks haven't run out of food until now?"
"Is there so much military pay?"
Fei Hefeng became suspicious.
"I suspect that someone secretly provided military pay to the Turks near Chongzhou County."
Fei Hefeng wiped off the blood stains on his body, and suddenly said this guess.
"How is it possible?" The third prince Danfeng opened his eyes slightly, extremely puzzled.
"There is nothing impossible." Xie Wuyuan chuckled, "After all, among the three princes, only you have won the emperor's praise."
"The remaining two want to attack you, which is understandable."
The third prince's tone froze.
"This," the third prince turned to look at Xie Wuyuan, full of trust, "Who do you think it could be?"
"Fourth prince." Xie Wuyuan sighed.
The third prince was startled.
"How could it be the fourth prince?"
"The He family is only the main force fighting against the Turks, how could it be possible to deliver food and grass to the Turks in private?"
"Xie Wuyuan, are you not mistaken?"
Xie Wuyuan chuckled lightly, and asked the Third Prince.
"Why not?"
"Two years ago, the He family fought against the Turks, and there was a good news. The emperor Longyan was very happy, and he brought all the civil and military officials to go hunting in autumn, do you still remember?"
"Remember." The third prince nodded.
of course I remember.
He He was injured during the autumn hunting, Xie Wuyuan ran over aggressively to question, how could the Third Prince forget such a thing?
"So, the He family has always been able to fight the Turks, but this time they suddenly couldn't?"
The third prince looked up at Xie Wuyuan, with an expression of "Are you kidding me?"
"That's right," Xie Wuyuan couldn't help rubbing the top of the third prince's head, "Look, you don't believe it, the He family has always been able to restrain the Turks for no reason, but this time they suddenly couldn't restrain the Turks' movements, let The Turks fled wildly from Youzhou to Chongzhou County."
The third prince still couldn't believe it, and habitually refuted Xie Wuyuan: "Why did the He family do this?"
Xie Wuyuan smiled, didn't speak, just looked at the third prince quietly.
The third prince was taken aback.
Fei Hefeng was also taken aback.
Xie Wuyuan analyzed every detail, and every word he said made sense.
The He family was able to contain the Turks, I don't know once or twice, and if you count it carefully, it has been five or six years.
It doesn't make sense now that they can't be restrained suddenly, Turkic ran to Chongzhou County.
The third prince lowered his eyes in deep thought.
Xie Wuyuan then continued.
"The Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War have always been responsible for matters such as food and wages."
"Ah."
The third prince nodded, the matter of food and payment is indeed the responsibility of the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of War.
What Xie Wuyuan wanted to say, the Third Prince could roughly guess it.
"Which family's household department will not pay the military department for disaster relief?"
The Ministry of War has always been the place of the He family.
"It makes sense." Fei Hefeng nodded, agreeing with Xie Wuyuan's suspicion.
The third prince frowned and thought deeply.
half an hour.
"Send someone to look it up."
Fei Hefeng took the order and went to the army to find suitable candidates.
------
Three days later.
"Report, our army's food and salary have been cut off. Please show me, sir."
The orderly entered the camp again.
Fei Hefeng sighed.
"Hey, I can't even live a life of eating chaff and swallowing vegetables."
The third prince was correcting the memorial at the desk. Hearing this, he paused the brush in his hand and sighed.
"Before, the support from the people in the suburban cities was delayed for two months. What should we do now?"
Xie Wuyuan leaned on the table beside him.
"It's okay, I've already written to You Lin, and it's almost time for her to come."
It was too late to say it, and it was so fast, as soon as Xie Wuyuan finished speaking, You Xiaolin's voice came through the tent.
"Ah, master, I'm exhausted."
You Xiaolin was panting as he ran, holding a bunch of herbs in his hand, and two people followed behind him.
acquaintance.
Tea Bell and Wei Yuanzheng.
"Master, I have already gone to the next county to buy grain, but they don't sell it, no matter how high the price is."
According to Xie Wuyuan's instructions in the letter, Chazhong went to buy food and grass early in the morning.
It's just that, without exception, all the grain and grass of the major commercial firms have been purchased.
"Thanks to this lord, otherwise the little one is still wandering around and returning empty-handed."
"I heard that you have Turkic harassment here, so I came here specially to see if I can help you?"
"Unexpectedly, I saw this young man and said that he belonged to the Xie family and wanted to buy food and grass."
"Coincidentally, all major grain stores in the county refuse to sell grain and grass."
This story was full of twists and turns, and the Third Prince's face was disturbed when he heard it.
Xie Wuyuan pinched the third prince's hand, patted to comfort him.
The small actions of the two did not disturb Wei Yuanzheng's narration.
The dog food has been stuffed a lot, so naturally I am not afraid.
Wei Yuan continued to speak.
"Fortunately, there is still food and grass left in our county. I have sent someone to escort it, and it should be on the way."
The author has something to say: the fourth
Do you want to thank Wuyuan, meditate.
☆、Chapter 127
Wei Yuanzheng came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
As soon as he finished speaking, he left again before he could have a sip of hot tea.
Tea Zhong consciously stood behind Xie Wuyuan, serving tea and water for the third prince and Fei Hefeng.
Xie Wuyuan stretched out his hand to stop the movement of the tea clock.
"Everything in the barracks is kept simple, so you don't have to wait around like this in the future."
After hearing their predicament, You Xiaolin came all the way from Chongzhou, and he was very tired at the moment.
"Master," You Xiaolin couldn't even speak properly, panting too quickly.
"I brought a new grass seed, which I found a few days ago when I was looking for an antidote to the plague."
Xie Wuyuan took the herbal medicine from You Xiaolin's hand, and looked it up and down.
You Xiaolin took the opportunity to drink his saliva.
"I've tried it, and it recovers quickly, and this kind of grass grows fast. Once it's planted, it can grow one piece in two days."
"Oh, that's right," You Xiaolin took out a bag of fertilizer from his pocket.
"Sprinkle some of this when planting," You Xiaolin added, "This stuff is not harmful, it's all natural and pollution-free, but it's too unpalatable."
Xie Wuyuan found a few people to experiment.
It was exactly the same as what You Xiaolin said.
Full of satiety.
There is no harm in the short term, but the taste is not very good.
Thus, the soldiers and generals in Chongzhou began their grazing career.
The days of grazing continued until the scouts returned.
The man's surname is Zeng, and his name is a Ming character.
As the name suggests, he is clear and clean, and he handles things very neatly.
Zeng Ming not only followed Xie Wuyuan's order, but also found the person who provided the Turkic army with military pay, and even marked the three different routes used by the Turkic army during the period of lurking for several days, and also attached detailed rules, such as——
"Turks usually like to take the first route because they are close."
"On rainy days, the road is muddy. Although the first route is close, the road is slippery and prone to accidents."
"Therefore," Zeng Ming pointed to another route for Xie Wuyuan to show.
"On rainy days, Turkic grain and grass mostly go the second way."
Xie Wuyuan stared at the three dry routes for a long time, and suddenly said a word.
"The three routes share a common point of intersection."
Zeng Ming pointed to the route and nodded, adding.
"Yes, these three routes all pass through the border between Wei State and Daliang Dynasty."
Fei Hefeng was stunned.
"indeed."
"Okay, without a map, I can see this out of thin air. It seems that I have a good understanding of the terrain."
Xie Wuyuan hummed casually, signaling Zeng Ming to continue.
Zeng Ming took a look at Xie Wuyuan, and continued cautiously.
"The people who provide the military pay wear the clothes of defending the country."
"I speak with the accent of Qi State, and my eating habits are like people from Jing State."
"It's hard to tell where the person is. After thinking about it, I finally decided to draw a portrait and come back."
"Ah."
Xie Wuyuan nodded, signaling Zeng Ming to present the portrait.
This person is well-organized, logical, and highly adaptable, and he is a good material for a scout at first glance.
Zeng Ming, Xie Wuyuan wrote down the name of this person.
ordered at the same time.
"Divide the troops into three groups and attack the Turks by surprise."
"Yes."
Fei Hefeng took the order.
The surprise attack was successful, and the Turks were unprepared.
Under Xie Wuyuan's command, the Turks' combat effectiveness suddenly became very low.
Many Turks were even caught off guard by the beating, dropped their food and grass, and ran back to the barracks crying for their father and mother.
Two large carts full of food and grass, enough for a group of soldiers to last for another month.
"Let's fight quickly."
Xie Wuyuan stood on the watchtower, with his hands behind his back, sighed, and gave the order for a quick battle.
Speaking of getting food and fodder, Xie Wuyuan strictly forbids the soldiers to use it privately, and all the expenses will be distributed by him at the same time.
"In order to show fairness, all food and grass are distributed by the county captain?"
Zhang Wu read the announcement in a cadence, abruptly reading a different point.
The soldiers began to resent again.
"Why? Does this little boy want to eat alone?!"
"The grain and grass are brought back by us. Why should this person who has been sitting in the back and doing nothing control the grain and grass?!"
There were complaints in the army.
Zhang Wu and several of his confidants took the opportunity to stir up trouble.
"That's right, that's right, we don't accept it!"
"Change your leader!"
Zhang Wu and his group only hoped to oust Xie Wuyuan from the stage, so as to have an explanation with He Zi as soon as possible.
Xie Wuyuan turned a deaf ear.
Even Fei Hefeng and Fan Jinghui came one after the other to persuade them several times.
"Xie Wuyuan, the military salary is tight now, it's not good for you to influence like this, so please pay more attention."
"That's right, no matter what, you can't hold the food and grass in your own hands. At least find someone to be with you?!"
Xie Wuyuan responded with a smile.
Send the two of them out of the house, and then continue to go about their own way.
In terms of food distribution, Xie Wuyuan was really fair.
Soldiers and soldiers have strict specifications, no one will be less, and no one will be more.
Even Xie Wuyuan himself was given the lowest ration of soldier rations, and he didn't make a small fuss for himself.
After a few days, the complaints in the barracks gradually dissipated.
In fact, as long as Xie Wuyuan didn't fill his own pockets, no matter how dissatisfied the soldiers were, they wouldn't have such a big opinion.
Two days later, the barracks was full of wailing, which was a sign of food poisoning.
Under Zhang Wu's deliberate guidance, the soldiers began to curse again.
"It's probably because they have a grudge against us and secretly put something that shouldn't be put in the army ration, and took the opportunity to punish us!"
"That's right! If it wasn't for his small belly?!"
Zhang Wu started alone, and everyone responded one after another.
That night, the Turks attacked.
The author has something to say: the fifth
☆、Chapter 128
The soldiers who led everyone to scold Xie Wuyuan earlier, now want to add insult to injury.
But this time, no matter how they encouraged them, the soldiers in the barracks were unmoved.
What's more, some of the soldiers even changed their previous listless and sickly appearance, yelling "Chong", "Kill", took up weapons, and bravely killed the enemy.
Zhang Wu's people were at a loss.
"Report!"
After hearing the scout's report, the Turkic general looked confused and kicked Zeng Ming who was standing aside.
"Didn't you say you would add food to the grain?"
"Why don't these people from the Liang Dynasty have any problems at all?!"
"what?!"
The Turkic general raised his foot and stomped Zeng Ming's ribs.
"They are all|poisoned, what do you mean they are all|poisoned?! Which eye do you see that they are all poisoned?"
"What's going on?!"
Zeng Ming spat out a mouthful of blood, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and held his chest to pant.
"I went to see it, and it was indeed poisoned. Why did they appear on the battlefield and still be so lively, I, I don't know."
"Come here, drag this sloppy thing out for me!"
The blood-stained Zeng Ming was dragged away by Turkic servants, so he didn't mention it.
------
Besides, Xie Wuyuan once again won a complete victory.
The third prince's face was pale, and he sat slumped on the chair.
"Aren't the people in the barracks all sick? Why do I listen to the outside, as if we won?"
"Well, we won."
Xie Wuyuan took off the armor on his body, and went to wipe the sweat off the third prince's forehead.
"It's not a little bit better. You Lin will come over later, so bear with it."
"fine."
The third prince pushed away Xie Wuyuan's hand, looked up at Xie Wuyuan with stubborn eyes.
"Xie Wuyuan, tell me the truth, are you hiding private soldiers?"
"What private soldiers are hiding?"
Xie Wuyuan chuckled, "I have that heart, but I don't have the time."
"The ones fighting today are all soldiers under Fei Hefeng's hands, from the Chongzhou barracks."
"Why don't they show signs of poisoning?"
"En." Xie Wuyuan went around to the back to wash his hands, wiped them with a handkerchief, and then returned to behind the third prince.
Putting the cold hand on his neck, the Third Prince shivered from the cold.
"They weren't poisoned because I didn't let them eat any food at all yesterday."
Xie Wuyuan smiled and stretched his hand down the third prince's skirt.
"what?"
The third prince opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
"Isn't yesterday's food and grass supplied to the entire barracks?"
Xie Wuyuan smiled and shook his head.
"No."
"You found out that there was a problem with the food early in the morning?"
The third prince looked up at Xie Wuyuan.
Xie Wuyuan smiled and hugged him in his arms, lowered his head and kissed him on the neck, after a long while, he finally released him contentedly.
Ask the third prince back.
"Do you remember the reaction of the Turks yesterday?"
"Ah."
The third prince nodded.
"A lost dog, fleeing in the wild."
Xie Wuyuan chuckled lightly.
"It's not been a day or two since we've been dealing with Turks, why did we suddenly run away?"
"You were suspecting at that time that the Turks were cheating?" The third prince looked up at Xie Wuyuan.
"Ah."
Xie Wuyuan nodded.
It turned out that after Xie Wuyuan got the grain and grass, the soldiers were strictly forbidden to use them without permission. Instead, he asked the accompanying military doctors and traveling doctors to test whether the grain and grass had been poisoned.
After confirming that it was indeed poisonous, Xie Wuyuan simply resorted to tricks.
After detoxifying the grain and grass, he went to You Lin to ask for some special plants, and put a few plants in the grain and grass, mixing them with the grain and grass for the past few days, creating an illusion similar to food poisoning.
The Turkic people who were placed in the Liang Dynasty would naturally report this matter, and Xie Wuyuan could also successfully rule out the traitor based on this.
Please enter the urn.
Except for a small problem in the process of confirming the traitor, the whole thing was planned very successfully.
Chongjun faced the Turks, and Chongjun won a big victory.

Regarding the matter of poisoning, the third prince wanted to investigate, but Xie Wuyuan firmly suppressed it.
"Leave this to me."
Xie Wuyuan said.
The third prince's pretty brows and eyes were frowned, and after a while, he made a concession.
"can."
In fact, Fei Hefeng has almost done the investigation.
Xie Wuyuan asked the case to be settled at this time, Xie Wuyuan and the third prince knew exactly what he was going to do.
"Zeng Ming, tsk, it's not easy."
Xie Wuyuan thinks highly of Zeng Ming, and originally planned to focus on training, but now.
Tsk, I really didn't expect that Zeng Ming would co-operate with the Turks inside and outside, and tamper with the grain and grass in private.
It's no wonder that the Turks retreated so easily last time, and there was some sense of sending food and grass for no reason.
Xie Wuyuan pondered for a while.
Turks cannot move.
Small fights, friendship is there, it doesn't hurt.
But once it is really hurt, no one can guarantee whether it will hurt both sides.
Sunset West Mountain.
Xie Wuyuan finally made a decision and gave the hat to Zhang Wu.
After a quick investigation, it became clear that Xie Wuyuan's movements were always clean and neat.
Zhang Wu held a grudge against Xie Wuyuan and Fei Hefeng, and when he failed to take revenge secretly, he became malicious and poisoned the grain and grass in the barracks.
After the incident, Zhang Wu committed suicide in fear of crime, leaving behind several confessions and correspondence records with the He family.
Well, of course, we will not discuss how Zhang Wu was killed by someone sent by Xie Wuyuan.
All in all, on the day Zhang Wu "judged himself in fear of crime", the tea clock never appeared.
After Zhang Wu's death, he left a large number of correspondence records with the He family.
A lot of information was revealed in the letters between the He family and Zhang Wu.
For example, Chongzhou Dilong turned over.
And the frontier war started.
Also, the military pay and food have not yet arrived.
The reasons for all kinds of things were also explained in a letter.
Of course, as for these so-called letters, tsk, since Xie Wuyuan was able to find someone to forge Concubine Mao's handwriting, Zhang Wu's handwriting is actually very simple, not to mention, Zhang Wu was originally connected with the He family, which everyone knows .
It's not too simple to frame it.
The reason why the military salary has not been reached so far is clearly written in the letter.
The He family ordered Zhang Wu to stop the relief food and grass sent by the emperor to the Chongzhou area. At the same time, he asked Zhang Wu to notify the local military and household departments to pretend that there was no such thing as military pay and food.
For another example, the reason why the Turks suddenly came to attack Chongzhou was also found in another correspondence between Zhang Wu and the He family.
Regardless of how other people react to these letters.
Just talk about the third prince.
The third prince really believed it.
Seeing is believing, hearing is believing, and there are all witnesses and evidences, so it is hard for people to deny it.
"What are you going to do with it?"
Xie Wuyuan patted the third prince's back lightly, and asked slowly.
"Well," the third prince turned over in Xie Wuyuan's arms, stretched his back to Xie Wuyuan, "I also
