Chapter 5 Aspiring to the Central Plains Breeze Xu Lai
"Why are you here?" Gu Xifeng asked with a frown.
From a distance, Gu Xifeng's spirit is somewhat similar to Gu Yingfeng. From a close distance, he feels that Gu Xifeng does not have Gu Yingfeng's sinister temperament, but instead feels a bit decent.
"Uncle Lu accompanied the head of the family to Yuezhou to inspect military affairs, so I'll come here."
"Well, you go back first, it's not appropriate for you to stay in the army." Gu Xifeng's words seemed very cold.
Gu Xifeng was not surprised by his father's orders, but there must be problems with his father when he went to Yuezhou. Since he cooperated with the court, why should he go to Yuezhou to inspect defense? There must be something strange about it.
"Brother, will something happen to my father?" �
"Qingfeng, why are you coming out?" Gu Xifeng quickly came forward and helped her sit down.
"Brother, tell me if something happened to my father?" Gu Qingfeng asked anxiously, ignoring Gu Xifeng's concern at all.
Gu Xifeng hesitated and nodded, "There is no problem with my father's order. It's just that the person who sent me messages to me has always been Uncle Lu, and this person didn't ask about your situation but just informed me of the order. I guess my father must be wrong."
"Ancestral Hall? It must be those elders!" Gu Qingfeng rushed to his forehead, his pale face immediately turned red, followed by a violent coughing sound, but in a short while, he actually coughed up a lot of blood.
"Qingfeng, don't be excited," Gu Xifeng said with heartache while helping her to calm down: "My father is still safe for the time being. After all, they are all from the Gu clan. They will not be too much about their father. As long as we take back the crisis of Yuanling's father, we can be relieved. After all, we still have the strength in our hands."
Gu Qingfeng took a long time to calm down and slowly said, "Brother, this is not the case. Yan Feng and Qu Feng's clan began to act against his father after he joined Nanchen. A few days ago, the surrender of Jiangyou Zhuo's clan brought a lot of pressure to his father walking in the clan. My father brought me here to protect me."
Gu Xifeng's attitude towards those three cousins was different. He respected Gu Qufeng and hated Gu Yingfeng. He had the best relationship with Gu Yanfeng. Gu Yanfeng's betrayal had a great blow to him. If Gu Qufeng was the leader among the Gu family, then Gu Yanfeng's ability lies in the dual cultivation of civil and military affairs. Gu Yanfeng's understanding of "scattered chess" can rank second in the clan. As for the first place, she was a seemingly weak sister in front of her. She was a rare genius in Gu's family. She was in poor health when she was born, but she was just such a woman who had already entered the realm of the Little Zhoutian. She only damaged her heart and lungs every time she used it, and she had to take care of her for a long time. She was probably the sister who could control the 50,000 Anhua elites. No one knew about Qingfeng's affairs except himself and his father. He always felt a little helpless when facing Meng Yan's army.
"Don't say Qingfeng in the future. Gu Yanfeng and Gu Qufeng have betrayed their family and have been removed from the clan. We have nothing to do with them. Do you understand?" Although it was a reprimand, it was more concerned.
"Brother, do you really think Brother Yanfeng is wrong?" Gu Qingfeng asked with his eyes flashing.
"It's too late to discuss whether it's right or wrong. I've got along with him, but he has never mentioned Meng Zhao's incident to me. He only told me the truth the day before he decided to betray the family. Do you think he treats me as a brother?" Gu Xifeng's words were filled with sadness.
"Brother, the clan has always been very harsh and cold to his children. I believe that Brother Yingfeng may be hiding somewhere now. The bloody smell of his father as the head of the family has not yet dissipated, and the people in the clan are planning to attack his father again." Gu Qingfeng said that his contemptuous expression was revealed.
"Sister, do you think we can't send troops to Yuanling?" Gu Xifeng smelled a strange smell.
Gu Qingfeng shook his head and frowned and said, "Sending troops to Yuanling is our last chance, but we always feel that something is wrong these days, and we can't say it. I have studied Meng Yan's battle. He has always liked to keep a move. This is the case in the battle of Gangying Ridge that defeated Brother Yanfeng. No one could have thought that he actually sent a pair of people to cross Hengshan and go directly to the back of Gangying Ridge. This time I can't see where his back is."
"Maybe Meng Yan is too confident?" Gu Xifeng felt guilty after listening to his sister's analysis.
"I hope this is the case. I'm afraid I can't follow our wishes. I will take me with me when I go to war. I feel that my health is not that bad recently. With me, I can at least save your life." Gu Qingfeng said weakly.
Gu Xifeng didn't want his sister to go to the battlefield again, but Qingfeng's words made sense. If the battlefield failed, I'm afraid that only this sister could save some situation. He gritted his teeth and said, "You can bring you with you, but it's not a very dangerous moment that you won't allow you to take action. Can you promise me?"
"Brother, don't worry, I won't do anything randomly," Gu Qingfeng suddenly thought of something and said, "Brother, do you think Xiao Yu will take action?"
Gu Xifeng was stunned and thought for a while and said, "Xiao Yu doesn't. Gu Qufeng is stationed in Lizhou. I believe that even if Gu Qufeng betrays his family, he will not take any harm. This will not be beneficial to him. Another thing is to say that Xiao Yu is having a big fight with the Qingluan Army because of Zhuo's affairs, and he has no time to help Meng Yan."
Gu Qingfeng thought for a moment, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I'm thinking too much. Even if there is no Qingluan Army, Xiao Yu, will not help Meng Yan. There is no need for the dignified Prince Nanchen to enhance his opponent's strength."
The two siblings walked back while talking about their father's affairs.
"Ah Yeh! It must be the lady scolding me." Meng Yan said with a smile.
Meng Yan and his group had secretly arrived in Xianning County, where the Qizhou Governor's Mansion was located. Tu Shan Yinyuan was very considerate and of course he did a good job of keeping the confidentiality work of Meng Yan's arrival. Meng Yan brought three thousand Bai Ze left guards over here and stayed in Xianning without any trace under the arrangement of Tu Shan Yinyuan. This set of merchant methods was quite the example of the military formation. At this moment, Meng Yan was scattering on Xianning Street with quartz.
"Duke, let alone wife, I'm afraid that the instructor Su is scolding you. You threw her to Mr. San, and her face was almost falling to the ground without looking at her." Shi Ying said helplessly. It was not because Meng Yan came to Xianning regardless of safety. What he was unhappy was that his wife or Su Qing threatened him before leaving.
"If she comes with her, it will be inconvenient," Meng Yan said with a wicked smile, "By the way, are you in touch with the people in Luantai?"
When he talked about the serious matter, Quartz put away his joking expression and said, "The people from Luantai said that the princess hopes to make an exact time with you."
Meng Yan did not answer immediately, but chose a small stall to sit down, ordered a pot of wine and two local snacks, and after eating two sips and drinking a glass of wine, he said, "Quanyin, tell the people of Luantai that Sanniang may have to prepare for a fierce battle. Fan Lihu's Jinzhou is stuck there. If the Zhendong Army cannot launch an offensive at the same time, it will be difficult to advance westward. After advancing westward, it must quickly occupy Huizhou."
"My grandfather, Huizhou is now in chaos. Each county and county are in charge of its own affairs. Some rely on Fan Lihu, some rely on the prince of Dongyang, and some rely on Duan Wan of Luzhou. How easy is it to quickly take down such a complicated situation?" Quartz asked.
"Huizhou seems complicated, but it is actually simple. It is a paradise. It is really unnecessary to burn the war there, but Huizhou is indeed a real place where military strategists must fight. Fan Lihu and Duan Wan have to go through Huizhou. Sanniang's connection with Jiujiang cannot avoid Huizhou. I asked her to take Huizhou to find a good place for her Qingluan army to station troops, which is also suitable for Sanniang, right?" Meng Yan said the use of Huizhou one by one.
"So Huizhou is indeed a good place, and it also conforms to the temperament of a princess. The place in Huizhou is convenient for Zhengbei Prefecture and Zhengxi Prefecture. Did you give Xizhou to Sanniang on purpose?" Quartz said suddenly.
"Okay, it's not hopeless. We don't need Xizhou for the time being. Qizhou is enough. Yuezhou, Jiujiang and Xizhou are all located on the river. It's hard to do it first if we supervise each other. We want Qizhou to be a barrier for Yuezhou." Meng Yan said while eating, as if he was very interested in Xianning's snacks. It seemed that he was planning to call the second bowl.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew over, which made people feel the heat. I didn’t expect that there would be such a comfortable breeze in this season. Suddenly, Meng Yan said, “What’s the situation in Anhua County? Can you report it?”
"Yes, Anhua County has already prepared to send troops to Yuanling, and the troops from Hezhou have also come out. It seems that Zhuo Shuai has caught the people." Shi Ying said admiringly.
"I'm asking about Anhua County. I have never felt that Zhuo Shuai can't catch them with the blessing of Chen Zhiqing and Su Qing." Meng Yan looked at Shi Ying with contempt.
"Oh oh oh, the leader of Anhua County is Gu Xifeng, the only son of Gu Xing. Su instructed that this person is still capable of fighting, and his ability to lead troops is second only to Gu Qufeng in Gu's family." Quartz said embarrassedly, scratching his head. He has always been unaccustomed to spies, and is more concerned about the situation on the battlefield.
"Go to send a letter to Zhuo Shuai be careful. I always think this Gu Xifeng is not that simple. The battle to defend Yuanling is probably not that easy." Meng Yan thought of Gu Xifeng and Gu Yanfeng had introduced this person to him. He is a general in his mind, but what is more special is that he can always stimulate potential in desperate situations to turn defeat into victory. This is not like a person's personality, unless Gu Xifeng is such a special person.
"Oh! Why are you here, my shopkeeper Yan?" A philanthropist voice swayed to Meng Yan with a capable figure.
"Second Young Master, why are you here?!" Meng Yan was surprised that Tu Shan Yinyuan appeared here.
"The goods are ready, just waiting for your shopkeeper Yan to accept it. You can come here to be so relaxed." Tu Shan Yinyuan blamed with a smile.
Meng Yan felt relieved. All the people were ready and it was time for him to set off. It would be better if Gu Xing saw the flaws. "Guardian Shi, go and notify the guards An and let them prepare to unload the goods."
This An guard is An Kui's younger brother An Can. When Zhuo Bailing proposed to pardon An Can that day, Meng Yan was worried. Seeing that An Can was fat and tall, her face was brutal, and she looked even more fierce than An Kui. So after taking the exam, she found that this guy had already practiced the Kung Fu of the External Kung Fu and had an inner beauty. Meng Yan intercepted it without hesitation and stayed by his side as a personal bodyguard. Although Quartz is good as a guard, it is more suitable to be a commander. An Can's appearance just liberated Quartz.
The three of them hurried back to the Qizhou Governor's Mansion with a smile. Tu Shan Yinyuan whispered: "I'm afraid the Duke's whereabouts cannot be hidden. My elder brother and sister-in-law are going to come to Qizhou."
"Tushan Jinyuan and Zhong Rouxuan are coming?" This was an accident. The trail was exposed, but Meng Yan did not intend to see them, so he said lightly: "Brother Yinyuan, take advantage of the breeze to set off for Puqi tonight."
