It is rare for two top masters to fight each other, and the soldiers gathered around to watch.

Fighting against Qin Canglan, Su Mo's strength was revealed little by little.

Seeing that Su Mo took so many photos in the hands of the Generalissimo, Liu Ren finally believed that Su Mo did not use his full strength just now.

Qin Canglan shot out like a dragon, and attacked Su Mo's lower body with one move. Su Mo hit the ground with his spear, jumped up with his strength, rolled over Qin Canglan's back, and killed a blow the moment he landed. Nice back carbine.

Qin Canglan didn't turn his head back, and thrust the red-tasseled spear into the ground with his backhand. Su Mo's spear head stabbed his red-tasseled spear impartially.

"it is good!"

The soldiers applauded.

Su Mo smiled: "Grandfather's sword is not old yet. So what if I don't know this trick?"

He decisively drew back the long spear, raised it above his head and spun in the air, and chopped down with one shot.

There are no complicated moves, only simple heavy blows.

Qin Canglan held the red-tasseled gun with both hands to block his attack.

Then Qin Canglan praised: "It's been a long time without making moves, and my internal strength has grown a lot."

Su Mo withdrew his spear: "Uncle and grandpa accept!"

The two went through more than a dozen moves, and the soldiers' blood was boiling with excitement, wishing that they could be as powerful as the two of them.

The soldiers were fascinated, wishing they could keep fighting, but at this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind them: "If you don't practice in the morning, what are you doing here?"

Everyone's expression changed.

Qin Canglan made gestures with Su Mo.

A general dressed in armor, holding a helmet, and with gray temples strode over. This person is none other than Leng Tiannan's uncle Leng Kui.

Five years ago, after Wu An Jun died in battle with Wei Xu and several Wei family sons, he took over the troops at the frontier, and Emperor Jingxuan named him Yipin Zhenbei General.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the highest position of a military commander is Grand Marshal, and the next rank is Grand General.

Leng Kui said majestically: "Everyone is stuck here, so there is no need to practice, right?"

The crowd dispersed with a whoosh.

Only Leng Kui, Liu Ren, Qin Canglan, and Su Mo were left in the noisy venue.

Qin Canglan and Su Mo came to the border in the name of escorting food and grass. They can be dispatched when necessary, but the real power is Leng Kui.

Leng Kui seemed to have just seen Qin Canglan and Su Mo at this time, and cupped his hands towards Qin Canglan indifferently: "It turned out that the old Huguogong was instructing the soldiers to practice martial arts, but it was a bad luck for me to come. "

Qin Canglan smiled faintly: "It's not a guide, I'm idle and bored, so I'll do two tricks with Mo'er."

Leng Kuipi smiled, "Then I'm afraid I'm going to disturb the two of you. How about talking in the camp? General Liu, you can come too."

Liu Ren cupped his hands: "Yes."

A group of people went to Leng Kui's camp.

It turned out that the spies sent back information, and Wancheng, a hundred miles away to the east, was invaded by bandits again. This was the second time this month. Leng Kui hoped that Su Mo could lead troops to Wancheng to quell the chaos.

Leng Kui said: "Lead your troops to Wancheng quickly, and make sure to wipe out the rebellious party in Wancheng!"

Su Mo asked, "How many troops does the general plan to give me?"

Leng Kui said, "Five thousand."

Liu Ren was taken aback for a moment: "How can only five thousand be enough?"

Leng Kui said seriously: "The situation at the border is tense now, and there are only so many troops I can allocate."

"Five thousand is enough." Su Mo said.

Leng Kui smiled with satisfaction: "Then it's settled, we'll leave later."

Qin Canglan suddenly said, "General, what are your arrangements for the defense of the border?"

Leng Kui looked at him: "In what capacity is the old protector asking me?"

Qin Canglan smiled: "Ask casually, it's fine if it's not convenient for you to answer."

"It's not inconvenient, I plan to station troops in Wengcheng and Liaocheng."

"What about Jia County?" Qin Canglan asked.

Leng Kui said: "Jia County is just a poor town with a poor population. Its military strength is limited. Try to defend a larger city, isn't it? What's more, Jia County has a special geographical location. Once more troops are added, it will undoubtedly be a challenge to Beiyan. We must Preventing Beiyan from causing chaos is not taking the initiative to start a war."

He said, got up and walked out.

Qin Canglan said lightly, "Leng Kui, this battle is destined to be fought."

Leng Kui paused, opened the curtain and went out without saying anything.

Su Mo looked at Qin Canglan, "Grandfather."

Qin Canglan nodded: "He is a general, you should do what he says first, and check the reality of Wancheng by the way."

Su Mo pondered for a moment, and said, "Granduncle, with all due respect, His Majesty does not want to fight this battle."

The Leng family is Emperor Jingxuan's confidant, if not, how could Emperor Jingxuan give the biggest fat to the Leng family? Leng Kui's attitude was to a large extent the attitude of Emperor Jingxuan.

Qin Canglan snorted coldly: "I know he doesn't want to fight, and I didn't count on him at first. The Qin family's reinforcements are on the way. Last time Wei Ting defeated Beiyan, he could have taken advantage of the victory to pursue it. It's our Majesty who is afraid of wasting people and money." , abruptly summoned Wei Ting back, and disbanded the military power of the Wei family. I don't want the Qin family and the Su family to become the second Wei family, this battle must be fought, or not fought!"

This is not to say that he must let the soldiers die, but that even if he blindly tolerates it, he will not be able to exchange for the so-called peace. Beiyan's annual tribute is getting more and more perfunctory every year. Miserable? No, it was Beiyan who managed Emperor Jingxuan's attitude, knowing that although he won on the surface, he was afraid in his heart.

Qin Canglan is not Emperor Jingxuan, he would rather die on the battlefield than rely on the enemy's breath!

...

Su Xiaoxiao, Fusu and Jingyi traveled all day and night, and finally arrived in Chong County in the early morning.

Due to the presence of caravans from various countries in Chongxian County, even Beiyan seemed to avoid this place on purpose during the war, so Su Xiaoxiao was a little unbelievable when he broke into Chongxian County after seeing the devastation at the border.

"Chong County...it's really lively."

"There are many caravans." Fusu parked the carriage in front of a rice shop, "Young Madam, the first one has arrived."

He went to get the stool, Jing Yi had already stretched out his hand to help Su Xiaoxiao down.

Fusu: Can you stop competing with our hidden guards? You will make it impossible for me to raise my wages!

Su Xiaoxiao asked about the price of grain, probably due to the tense situation at the border, the price of grain has risen a bit, rice has increased by three copper coins per catty, white flour has increased by four copper coins, not to mention chicken, duck and mutton.

From morning to night, they bought almost all the shops in the county, and even the grain shipped to the Western Jin Dynasty was cut off by her at a high price.

Not to mention the ones that were shipped to Beiyan, that was not a single grain of rice left for Beiyan!

After cutting off all the food and grass of the Beiyan caravan, Su Xiaoxiao finally experienced the joy of a local tyrant.

Fusu looked back at the carriages and horses that occupied almost half of the street: "These grains should be enough to survive this winter. The next step is how to transport them to the border. With so much grain, it will be very eye-catching on the way."

Quietly ask, do you still have a monthly pass?
