On the seventh day of the first lunar month of the second year of Chen Chaobei Ding's reign, Shizhu's commander Gu Xifeng launched a violent attack on Gu Yanfeng's headquarters in Wanzhou. Soon after the attack, Yang Bo of Kaizhou formed a pincer attack on Wanzhou. After Gu Yanfeng resisted for three days, on the tenth day of the first lunar month,

In the evening, he withdrew from Wanzhou and retreated to Qingjiang County in Yiling. Tushan Yiyuan, the governor of Yiling, personally greeted him.

The matter in Wanzhou was resolved within three days. Gu Xifeng was highly praised by Cao Li and Yuan Changli who was far away in Luochen City. Yuan Changli generously granted Gu Xifeng the title of Marquis of Wancheng County. This made Yang Bo, who failed to seize the opportunity,

Annoyed, everyone's focus was suddenly drawn to Dongchuan again. As for the bloody battle at Zangda, no one paid much attention to it. Of course, no one paid much attention to the fact that Gu Yanfeng actually recaptured Wanzhou.

There were not many casualties.

In Ning City, Zhizhen Town, Gu Qingfeng pretended to be an ordinary Central Plains woman and took Meng Wanshu for a stroll in the city. Meng Yan and Meng Huan followed behind and said this. The little girl was very excited. Gu Qingfeng chased after him breathlessly.

Physical strength is really good.

"Brother Qi, when I handed over to Lu Ping the day before yesterday, I saw that he was very unhappy!" Meng Huan shrank his neck and said.

"He is not suitable to be in charge of the army here. He only pursues military achievements and does not care about the lives of soldiers. Our Xifu does not need such a heartless general." Meng Yan said lightly, but his eyes never left Gu Qingfeng and Meng in front of him.

Wan Shu.

"General Jin will return to Yeling today, why don't you give me any more instructions?" Meng Huan asked tentatively. He could see Lu Ping's dissatisfaction and Jin Qian's worry, but he didn't know what happened.

Curiosity drove him to ask.

"You are going to go on an expedition the day after tomorrow, why are you meddling with other people's business?" Meng Yan said with a frown. Seeing Meng Huan's disappointed look, he still couldn't bear it and said, "Jin Qian did something he shouldn't have done. I

I have already talked with him, how is it? Do you have the confidence to lead the army independently for the first time?"

Meng Huan said confidently: "Brother Qi, don't worry, I won't let you down!"

"What I'm most worried about is your attitude. Compared with our Xifu soldiers, the Zhu Mu family is not bad. They live in the mountains and dense forests all year round, and the terrain is more familiar to you. You must be careful!" Meng Yan said dissatisfied.

Seeing Meng Yan's dissatisfied look, Meng Huan immediately became nervous and said: "Seventh brother, I am not underestimating the enemy. Based on the Mingjian Division's information, I made the battle plan after a whiteboard review with General Gu Sheng. Zhu Ti seems to have an overwhelming number of troops."

Advantage, but Zhu Ti’s guard Jing Yi is a descendant of the Central Plains and is not trusted by the Zhu Mu family at all, so this journey is mainly about psychological attack, and I have asked Miss Qingfeng to help.”

Meng Yan had a general understanding of their plan. Meng Huan could take the initiative to do things, and it was a good thing to take the initiative to communicate and cooperate. "What are you going to do over there in Nayong?"

"Nayong is the key to this battle. I have talked with Marquis Jin. As long as he can prevent Banzhou from peeping south, I will have no worries. General Gu Sheng is going to return to Yeling City with Marquis Jin. I will make my own

He sent out troops, passed through Puding, and weaved gold; he sent out troops from Yeling, passed through the Acropolis, Nadong, crossed the attack, and then gathered at the foot of Nayong City."

"It's a big taboo among military strategists when we divide our troops. Aren't you afraid that Nayong will take the initiative to cut off your contact?" Meng Yan thought about teaching.

"Seventh brother, I dare to do this because I have studied the report of Mingjian Division. Zhu Mu has always been defensive in Nayong. Nayong's general Utu Liang is a good defensive general, but he has obvious problems in offense.

Even if the Zhu Mu clan reacts to the shortcomings, we have already reached the city and it will be too late to change the generals. The main purpose of this journey is to fight quickly." Meng Huan told the whole plan.

Meng Yan nodded, expressing his approval of their plan, and then added a reminder: "I will keep an eye on Zhu Di for you. Jing Yi should try not to hurt him as much as possible. Most of the Central Plains people of the Zhu Mu family are under his protection.

Survival can be regarded as his contribution to the Central Plains."

Meng Huan smiled awkwardly. It seemed that Gu Qingfeng had already told him that he had indeed made a second-hand plan for Jing Yi, which was to assassinate Jing Yi if he failed to persuade him to surrender.

"Eleventh Master, you must remember that our expedition is not to satisfy our selfish desires, but to allow the people to live a good life, to avoid the persecution of the cruel officials of the aristocratic families, and to no longer have enslaved Central Plains people. We must always remember to use war to

Stopping the war is the goal." Meng Yan was instilling the correct ideas into Meng Huan.

Meng Huan fell into deep thought, and Meng Yan stopped caring about him. These things cannot be understood at once. Let him digest it slowly. Forcibly controlling his thoughts will make him resist. Meng Yan quickened his pace and stepped forward to follow up.

Breeze.

"Your Highness, did you make sense?" Gu Qingfeng turned around and looked at Meng Huan, who was walking behind and thinking.

"I don't know. I've already taught him everything he needs to teach. It depends on him to what extent he understands. If you tell the people in Mingjian Division, I will live with Jing Yi."

"It has been arranged for a long time. I know you cherish your talent." Gu Qingfeng became more and more comfortable with Meng Yan, especially after receiving the news that Gu Xifeng had secretly joined.

"Zhu Ti, after Nayong is captured, you can take Shu'er back to Changsha." Seeing that Gu Qingfeng wanted to refuse, he raised his hand to stop him, and then said: "Don't be too busy refusing, you have things to do when you return to Changsha.

, First, the Military Intelligence Department of the Metropolitan Governor's Office will temporarily move to Dongchuan, and the Government Affairs Department will move to Hezhou to make preparations, and all administrators and generals must make arrangements; second, Tushan Yiyuan's attitude is very clear, but for the sake of safety

, Su Qing and Shi Ying went to deal with the border between Yiling and Xizhou. You have to sit in Jiangxia to supervise and don't let this matter happen unexpectedly; and you always have to meet your brother. The hope that Gu Sheng brought this time

Are you really not going to reply to Feng Heyanfeng’s letter?”

Gu Yanfeng was okay, but Gu Xifeng was a little embarrassed. Gu Qingfeng hadn't figured out how to face his brother yet, and was very confused.

At this time, a warm big hand suddenly took her cold hand. Gu Qingfeng subconsciously wanted to break away, but Meng Yan's strength was beyond her. She looked at Meng Yan intently, and Meng Yan's eyes were full of tenderness.

Gu Qingfeng suddenly bumped into each other, his face was very hot, and he stammered: "Your Highness, you, me, oh! So many people are watching."

"Qingfeng, I don't want to avoid anything. We are facing each other after all." Meng Yan said softly.

"But, I..." Gu Qingfeng gasped, speaking incoherently.

"I won't hide it from you, Haoyue's position in my heart cannot be changed, but I can see your feelings for me. I am not a stone, understand?" Meng Yan said without any concealment.

When Cang Shu Haoyue was mentioned, Gu Qingfeng froze. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, didn't he just like Meng Yan like this? He dared to speak out and did not avoid or run away. After thinking about it, he said firmly: "Madam will always be

Madam, I have never thought of replacing Madam, I am me, I am Gu Qingfeng."

This is the first time that the two of them face their feelings directly. There are not many gentle whispers, but they can feel the flavor of a fierce war and an iron horse. If Cang Shu Haoyue is Meng Yan's white moonlight, hanging high in her heart,

Gu Qingfeng is like a clear spring in Meng Yan's heart, sometimes trickling, sometimes magnificent, always accompanying Meng Yan.

"Aren't you willing to meet your brother?" Meng Yan asked softly.

"I will leave for Changsha after Zhu Ti gets the results. The relocation of a large number of people requires careful planning."

Meng Yan smiled. Gu Qingfeng rarely responded positively, whether it was about relationships or official business.

"By the way, Your Highness, news came back from Jiyang City that Mr. Zhao was imprisoned on death row by Quan Hanliang. It is difficult for our people to succeed." Gu Qingfeng recovered his emotions quickly and immediately changed to the role of Mingjian Division.

.

Meng Yan was stunned, his expression became distressed, and he said: "Qingfeng, I won't hide it from you, this Mr. Zhao is my father, the same Meng Zhao who was hunted down by the Gu family back then."

"Uh," this time it was Gu Qingfeng's turn to be troubled. She didn't even think that Meng Zhao was still alive and appeared at Cui's place.

"It's okay, don't be nervous. I have never seen him before. Haoyue has always been responsible for exchanging letters with him. Now I can only leave it to you. Try your best to save him."

"Uncle was rescued by the Changsun family?" Gu Qingfeng asked.

Meng Yan was surprised. In such a short time and with a small amount of information, he could immediately determine the ins and outs of the matter. "Yes, how did you know?"

"It's not difficult. I heard my father say that when the old family leader killed my uncle and his group, he didn't find his body. At that time, no one who had the ability and courage to accept my uncle except your mother-in-law, Sun, dared to do so.

, before your cousin appeared in Jiuquguo, and then started to have contact with Dongfu. Now your cousin has turned into the Marquis of Yanzhou in Chen Dynasty. It is obvious that the Changsun family betrayed his uncle for profit. This is not difficult to understand.

Yes, big families always put interests first." Gu Qingfeng said calmly. She was born in a big family and was the only daughter of the head of the family. She had seen too many of these things.

"You mean his identity is actually an open secret?" Meng Yan suddenly remembered something and became a little nervous.

"Yes, my uncle's life will not be in danger for the time being, unless Quan Hanliang wants to completely fall out with us, but I will have to make new plans after he is rescued."

"Leave Zhu Ti's affairs to me. You will go back to Changsha tomorrow and immediately free up Changsha and hand it over to Nanfu. There won't be any delay!" Meng Yan's nervousness became more and more serious.

Gu Qingfeng looked at Meng Yan in confusion, why he suddenly became like this.

"Lu Chongzong is my second brother! My dear second brother!"

Gu Qingfeng was dumbfounded. What kind of complicated relationship is this? "Is Mr. Yu your second brother?"

"Yes, he was exiled to the south when he was young and was adopted by the late emperor. Not long after I was born, Yang Boqin took me in out of compassion." Meng Yan said helplessly. In fact, he sometimes didn't want to believe it.

I have such a tortuous life experience.

Gu Qingfeng now re-examines Meng Yan's relationship. First of all, Meng Yan is not an orphan. His father and brother are both alive. Secondly, the situation that caused their separation is the Gu family, which is his own family. Thirdly, she completely understands why that day

With the help of Lu Chongzong's mansion, it was so smooth to get out of Chencheng. They were like brothers.

"Your Highness, you should send a message to Duke Yu quickly and reach our sphere of influence first," Gu Qingfeng reminded.

"I know that Ye Shuai and Shi Ying are guarding Xiao Yu in Jiangxia, Zhuo Shuai is coordinating the provisions of various armies and horses in Baoqing, Qing Shuai and Gu Yanfeng are on the Dongchuan front line, and Jin Qian is in Yeling. The only mobile forces we can mobilize are

Yu Geng is here, I will give you a handwritten message, asking Yu Geng to cooperate with you in the defense from Chencheng and Dongfu. No matter which link goes wrong, it will be a disaster for us!" Meng Yan suddenly felt that dangers are everywhere.

.

Gu Qingfeng took a deep breath, knowing the importance of this matter, "I'm leaving tonight. I'll go to Lincheng first, and let the horse take your handwritten letter to Hengyang. Time is tight. As long as someone lights a fire, it will be fired.

out of hand."

"I can't come forward. You make decisions on family matters on the fly to ensure Lu Chongzong's safety and stabilize the family."

"Don't worry, your home is my home, isn't it?" Gu Qingfeng gave him a rare response with a playful look.
