"Let Third Brother worry about it."

In Pingyuan City, when he saw Zhang Xing stepping into the door surrounded by several people, Niuda looked pale and struggled hard on the couch to speak. "I know my situation well...with a little practice, I can return to my previous state."

.”

Zhang Xing was obviously startled... The news he had received before he came was that the person had suffered internal and external injuries, and he looked like he was either dead or disabled, so he was so frightened that he rode over immediately.

What's going on?

"It's not that I'm here to comfort the leader." Before Niu Da could speak again, Xiong Bonan rushed to answer. "The injury of Niu Da leader is indeed relatively serious, but we have to look at it from two sides, one side is his own injury, and the other side is the internal injury in his Dantian...

...As long as the internal injuries in the Dantian are healed and the body bones of the big cow are slowly warmed up, the external injuries will always be the same... Even if you take ten thousand steps back, the right foot will not be healed, but the cultivation of Dan Ning is still there

, before and after the formation, how can it delay things?"

Niu Da condensed his elixir.

Zhang Xing suddenly came to his senses, but he didn't have any doubts in his heart. Niu Da's cultivation and talent were basically slightly inferior to Xu Shiying's. If there was any earth energy bonus, his status as a big leader and a separate party was also

Put there, Xu Shiying was two years late in condensing the elixir, which already makes people wonder if there is something unclear in his heart.

"I see, how about the internal injuries?" As soon as he thought about it, Zhang Xing hurried forward and took the other person's hand on the couch to ask.

"The internal injuries are not too serious. The main reason is the depletion of the true energy and the external injuries. The injuries are relatively serious, including the intestines and abdomen and the right foot." It was Xiong Bonan who made the introduction.

"It doesn't matter whether there are internal or external injuries, it's just fine when we come back. The next step is to recover." Zhang Xing sighed and continued to comfort him, but he couldn't help but continue to ask. "Since the elixir is condensed, why is the true energy exhausted? Dantian is damaged.

?”

"The elixir was condensed not long before the battle, and it is not yet stable." Xiong Bonan continued.

"The main reason is that we lost Chanyuan City!" Niu Da suddenly squeezed Zhang Xing's hand, his face turned red and he burst into tears. It was obvious that he was both emotional and injured. "The defeat was originally expected.

During this period, I only thought that I could retreat to the city and defend again, so I spared no effort. I just thought that no matter how difficult it was to get back to the city, it would be easy... As a result, the officers and soldiers pursued me too hastily, and actually arranged two lines of ambush behind me.

, just after I was defeated, they just pretended to be our army and took the city... Then thousands of men, they lost their evidence out of thin air... Most of them were children from the eastern part of Dongjun, and they were all scattered. Who could not save them? In the end, one person was saved.

One place, another place fell into another place, and when I saved another place, I turned around and the person I just saved has been destroyed...I... Third brother, I will always be at odds with Qutuda in this life!"

"We are at odds with the violent Wei forces." Zhang Xing immediately answered. "Since Qu Tuda has done this, he will surrender in the future, how can we give him a chance to kill him?"

When Niuda heard this, he gritted his teeth and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Xing hesitated for a moment, remembering the method of autopsy at Jing'antai, and said again: "Relax a moment, I'll try to use my true energy to explore your body. If there is any important place, don't resist, it will hurt."

.”

Although Xiong Bonan had already done it, after all, it was Zhang Xing who came to check the injury in person. Of course Niu Da had nothing to say and just nodded quickly.

In this way, Zhang Xing released his true energy and reversed the opponent's meridians. Sure enough, he could detect clearly that one of the odd meridians passed through the chest and abdomen;

On the contrary, in the Dantian area, although Niuda himself was sweating from the pain on his forehead, there was still a weak but obvious source of Qi.

After confirming that everything was correct, he felt relieved a little and gave Niuda a few more words of comfort, which only allowed Niuda, who was sweating profusely, to have a good rest. Then he turned around and walked out of the hospital to talk.

Arriving outside the courtyard, he continued walking for a while, and came to the green tree in front of the stables. He asked Jia Runshi to sit in the middle and screen out the others. Only the four big leaders Wei Xuanding, Xiong Bonan, Wang Shuyong and Xu Shiren were left.

Ask in a low voice:

"King of Heaven, according to the situation you sent someone to tell you, do you think that Zhang Changfeng has no good intentions and wants to use Chief Niu in exchange for the government? Has he ever abused Chief Niu?"

"Anyway, I won't treat you well." Xiong Bonan said seriously. "Of course, I wasn't treated well during the march. It's hard to say that, but at least there is a suspicion of deliberately delaying the injury to control the big cow leader, and the exchange of military rations is even more serious.

conclusive."

"Why is he like this?" Wang Wulang, who had just received the news and turned back from the northwest boundary ditch, interrupted in surprise. "Isn't he a rebel?"

"Not a serious rebel." Wei Xuanding replied with a sneer. "The children of the Zhang family call themselves romantic and have been together in the Eastern Capital. What kind of rebels are they? They are just abandoned sons of the Zhang family."

"That's not entirely true." Zhang Xing was as matter-of-fact as ever. "I've seen Mr. Zhang before, and he doesn't seem like someone who would be so deliberate about his chess moves. And judging from how embarrassed he was when he escaped from Hedong,

It's more like he is self-righteous... I have to say the rebel army, it can be regarded as the rebel army... As for what he did, it was nothing more than being beaten, knowing his own weight, but the location of Heishan, whether it is Dongdu, Hedong, or even Jijun

, Hanoi, Wu'an, and Wei County are all the enemies of the imperial power, so in order to survive, they dare not flirt with us. But no matter what, the imperial court is not easy to mess with, but we are easy to mess with? Others have been arrested by Qin Er

?”

"Yes." Xiong Bonan agreed immediately.

"Chief Wei went to send a letter and said that the previous discussion on handing over was still worthwhile, but we don't want Niuda alive. We only want Zhang Changfeng's body in exchange for the Bohai Prefect... If we exchange it alive, we will beat the Bohai Prefect to death and send it over.

." Zhang Xing simply waved his hand and said.

"I know." Wei Xuanding responded cheerfully.

"Don't disperse all the Chanyuan prisoners who were exchanged. Carefully select a thousand men and divide them into two six hundred men. When reorganizing the army this time, they will be placed in two camps... let Niu Da lead these two battalions.

, by the way, he is also a direct subordinate... When the time comes, we will see if Niuda's injury heals quickly. The two battalions will be placed on the westernmost front line to prepare for the next stage of combat... These things in the entire army will be even more important.

The King of Heaven will go to Ban County to handle it himself, and it is up to you, Duke Wei, to handle the matter of moving the defense." Zhang Dalongtou continued to give instructions.

"sure."

"this is necessary."

After a few people agreed, Zhang Xing hesitated for a moment, then looked at a few more people: "You are here, in charge of internal and external affairs on the Western Front. Do you think there is any other way to say this battle?"

"The ambush and the people who pretended to surrender probably have something to say. Before, I thought that Li Ding and Li Qingchen might have participated in this battle. Looking at it now, Qin Bao is probably involved." Wei Xuanding said seriously. "But the big leader Niu doesn't want to say...

"

"What's there to worry about?" Zhang Xing's face suddenly darkened. "If Qin Bao and Li Qingchen were caught in the battle formation, they should have his sword. If they surrender, they would have to draw lots. The military formation matters will be

It's so simple. On the other hand, Li Ding can be said to have a strong army in his hands. He also promoted several leaders such as Cheng Ming and Fang Yanshi, and contributed to the establishment of the Pu Tai Army. In addition,

He has done other scattered transactions, so he is qualified to do some articles with us, not because of his friendship with anyone."

"Actually, it's hard to tell about the deception of the city." Wei Xuanding nodded and continued. "According to the soldiers who were in the city at that time and were later returned, it was Guan Xu who directly opened the city, but now Guan Xu's life and death are unknown.

, whereabouts unknown..."

As soon as these words came out, Xiong, Wang, and Xu all frowned.

"If there are no conclusive clues or evidence about this kind of thing, don't say anything." Zhang Xing quickly interrupted and said seriously. "Just keep it in mind, and it can't even delay someone's promotion and appointment... On the other hand, once there is conclusive evidence,

, I have to find it even to the ends of the earth!"

"Yes." Wei Xuanding nodded.

"Is there anything else going on here?" Zhang Xing couldn't ask further, and at the same time glanced at Taoist Wei. The few words he said were rejected by the people around him, but he was always in a high mood, which was not like his character at all, but he didn't know why.

thing.

"And..." Wei Xuanding answered seriously. "Yuan Baocun let go, that's what happened just now!"

"So fast?" Zhang Xing was extremely surprised. "Didn't he say the day before yesterday that he relied on Qinghe Cao Shancheng to be well-defended in front of him, so he was showing off in a high manner? What did I say about him the day before yesterday? Is it easy to be brave behind a high wall?"

"Yes." Wei Xuanding twirled his beard and smiled.

"I guess I saw that Qu Tuda locked him outside the real wall." Xiong Bonan seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but sneered, but repeated Qu Tuda's behavior of heavily deploying troops around Li Yangcang in Ji County.

"No matter how tough Qinghe is here, it is just a fence. It is impossible to stop our army in one county. Instead, Qu Tuda turned around and deployed defenses behind him, completely exposing the reality of Dongdu..."

Everyone suddenly nodded.

At this time, Wang Wulang suddenly sighed inexplicably and couldn't help but interjected: "Now that I think about it, our gang is really lucky... When we first established the gang, everyone recommended Zhang Sange and Li Gong to be the leaders. At that time,

There are still people who are not convinced, thinking that although the two of them are famous, they don’t have any soldiers, horses, population, money or food in their hands, so why should they be the leader? Even Xu Dalang and I came together to promote it, just because we knew that an uprising was imminent. If we couldn’t find someone to

A few of us local people cannot win over the famous people in Dongjun, and other heroes from Jiyin cannot be replaced by local officials... But now it seems that there are people who really know more to take the lead.

How many detours will be avoided? I won’t say anything that is too much to say. I will only say that wherever I hit, I can’t reach it, and how hard I can touch it. These are actually things we already knew before we crossed Hebei.

However, the high officials of the imperial court did not understand the situation until the end."

Several people were stunned for a moment, and each nodded.

Xiong Bonan responded directly: "That's the truth!"

"People like Yuan Baocun may not not know these things, they are just among them..." Zhang Xing, as always, always makes excuses for the losers. "There are also people like Cao Shancheng, they may not not know, but they can be regarded as having him.

It’s not like I’ve never seen someone who is a loyal minister and a filial son. Even Xue Wanbi’s temporary anger cannot be said to be entirely without merit.”

After saying this, Zhang Xing looked at Wei Xuanding: "What are his conditions?"

"He wants to follow Liang Jun's example and listen to our instructions, but he will not change his banner. At the same time, he wants us not to send troops there unless necessary. He thinks that the Jun soldiers will guard the western front for us, and he should not dispatch officials..."

"Are you kidding?" Wang Shuyong was speechless before he finished speaking. "We dare not go further into Liang County. Cao Wang, the prefect of Liang County, also has the ability to stand in front of Cao Lin. Who is he?"

Even the hero Xu Shiren, who had embarrassing qualifications, laughed.

Unexpectedly, both Zhang Xing and Xiong Bonan were silent. The latter glanced at the former and spoke first: "Let me say it first... I think if they can follow the rules of our gang, the people will no longer pay double taxes.

, he will keep up with whatever government decrees we want to make, and at the same time, he can keep asking for food from Liyangcang in the west, but we can't allow him!"

Wang Shuyong suddenly said: "Yes, food."

"Actually, it's not just food." Xu Shiren hesitated for a moment and then actually spoke. "Longtou, I have noticed before that various other materials in the army are also consumed very quickly... For example, the best three-armor bow does not use true energy.

A bow that can penetrate three layers of iron armor when fully drawn will lose one when it is used up. Not only is there a lack of craftsmen, but also the corresponding materials. Others such as Mingguang Armor's Mingguang Breastplate, Horse Armor's Mask, Twelve Stones

The waist crossbows are also similar."

"This is a big deal." Zhang Xing became solemn when he heard the words. "It's definitely not just these top-notch ordnance parts. This is just for the first time. I'm afraid that ordinary beef tendons, armor pieces, and leather will also gradually make ends meet..."

"It's another huge difficulty." Xiong Bonan became increasingly uneasy. "So in the long run, storing the ingot here can indeed give you preferential treatment."

Zhang Xingduo glanced at Xiong Bonan, and then nodded: "For the sake of our help, the land of a county is no longer important. In Wuyang, we can actually wait for a few years... As long as Yuan Baocun is willing

Give him food, weapons, and listen to instructions and not do evil. How about we give him a three-year agreement? Let him stay for three years, but he must send some people to monitor key points. I don’t know what Wei Gong thinks.
