Fenghua husband and splendid wife

Chapter 857 The Two Sides Meet! (4)
"Fortunately, your son is wise and dispatched people early. We have now discovered that there are changes in several borders. However, at present, it should be a small-scale harassment, just to attract our attention."

"Sanqi, go and call Yun Ruogu over."

"Yes, son."

"I'm afraid it's not just to attract our attention, it's to contain our other troops. In this way, our troops that can deal with Huangfu Dingtao will be even more limited."

Qian Xia didn't understand, so, "Don't we have so many troops?"

Mu Liu smiled young, and stretched out his hand to stroke her hair, "Qianqian, you don't understand. The moment the gate of Qiyangguan was opened, 30 troops came in directly. Even if Huangfu Dingtao had never fought, But that Prince Rui is a hero on horseback. It is impossible for him to fight unprepared."

"You mean, Cang Ming will continue to increase his troops in the follow-up?"

"Very likely. Moreover, at present, they have obviously reached a certain consensus with Qianxue. Even if Qianxue will not help Cangming, at least they will not help Ziye to fight Cangming."

Qinglong was slightly stunned, "How did you find out, Young Master?"

"It's very simple. Qianxue and Cangming have been friends for more than a hundred years. There are intermarriages between the two countries, almost every generation of royal family. But the current war obviously does not pose any risk to Qianxue. , Therefore, Qianxue will not intervene at this time. At least, not now."

Qian Xia became even more confused when she heard this, "How do you know that there is no danger to Qian Xue? What if Cang Ming's ambition is too big, and then she will do something to Qian Xue?"

"Hehe, it's impossible at present. You see, after Cangming's army entered Qiyang Pass, they directly passed through Qiyang County and reached the east side, while Qianxue is here, relatively close to Huai'an."

Only then did Qian Xia understand, and looking at the map again, it was indeed so.

It happened that Yun Ruogu also came in, with a calm expression on his face, but there seemed to be a little irritability between his brows, it seemed that he also knew about Qi Yang.

"Things are bad?"

"At least for now, it's not very ideal. Sanqiu Zirui should come to us tomorrow. He meant that there would be no risk in Anyang City for the time being. He sent a general from Sanqiu's family to bring him with him. The tens of thousands of horses in hand went straight to Qi Yang."

"These people's combat effectiveness is too weak. Against Cang Ming's well-trained army, I'm afraid they will only be beaten."

Although Yun Ruogu's words are somewhat hurtful, they are true.

"Mu Liunian, don't you plan to send out the Mu family army yet?"

Mu Liunian shook his head, "It's not the time yet. We don't know enough about Huangfu Dingtao's team. Besides, I'm worried that at this time, other places will also be unstable."

As he said that, he also gave Yun Ruogu all the secret letters that Qinglong had given him before, and let him read them one by one.

"I have to say that Huangfu Dingtao's move is very clever. We just want to move now, at least we have to think about where we should move? Moreover, Ruogu, even if we move, the soldiers and horses in the Liaocheng area will not move for the time being. We can't reduce it any more. Our current troops and horses are enough to deal with the invasion of foreign enemies, and if we divide them up in batches, I'm afraid it will be dangerous. After all, the terrain around Phoenix Mountain is not very favorable to us."

"I understand what you mean. At this time, we must first see what the court's attitude is. Then, we need to see which direction the soldiers and horses of the Cangming army are going to go."

"My people found out that the fourth prince is now trapped in Qiyang County. He is poisoned and can't leave even if he wants to. At this time, Huangfu Dingtao can make great use of the name of the fourth prince to deal with Zi Ye invaded. I was thinking, now I should find a way to rescue the Fourth Prince. At least, let Zi Ye’s people understand that this is Cang Ming’s trick, not the Fourth Prince’s original intention.”

"The method is good, but among thousands of troops, it is too difficult to save a person who cannot move freely."

Yun Ruogu shook his head, this is almost an impossible task.

Qian Xia also fell silent, the second brother was right, if it was so easy to rescue, the hidden guards under the fourth prince could do it, why should they help?

"Since it's his hidden guards who can contact us, why don't we join hands with them, and work together from inside to outside to rescue the Fourth Prince?"

As Qian Xia said, her eyes became brighter, "As long as all the subjects in the world know that the fourth prince did not borrow soldiers from outside, those common people will surely join the fight against the Cangming army." Among the team, at the very least, this will make Cang Ming inferior in terms of momentum."

"Well, what my sister said is reasonable. But how to save it? We still have to think carefully about how to arrange it after being rescued."

"Sangqiu Zirui will come over tomorrow, and we will discuss it with him then. He has a lot of ideas, and he is good at divination. At least, he can give us an approximate direction and time, which is better than us being too blind."

Yun Ruogu nodded, but Qian Xia was a little surprised by what Mu Liunian said. Didn't expect him to have such a time?
It never occurred to her that at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, although she had various conflicts with Sangqiu Zirui, once it involved national affairs, he would be so calm.

It seems that she didn't know enough about Yuanchu before, and unconsciously, his image in her mind became taller again.

That night, Mu Liunian discussed with Yun Ruogu and several generals until very late. Qian Xia fell asleep in a daze, feeling that someone had come back, but he just smelled the familiar fragrance, and went to him without opening his eyes. His arms arched, and he slept more soundly.

Before dawn the next day, Mu Liunian was woken up by someone, and after Qian Xia woke up and helped Xiao Yunhua get dressed, he realized that Sangqiu Zirui had arrived early.

Three big and one small, some weird combination, gathered around a round table, ready to have breakfast.

Qian Xia also felt a little embarrassed, cleared her throat, "Why don't you see my second brother?"

"I asked him to go to the yamen. At this time, the law and order in the city must not be messed up. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be changes."
