After Hou Jiawei decided to get rid of Xu Ruwei neatly, he immediately sent a letter to Bai Mazi and used this force. Tearing your face during the day and doing it at night is also vigorous enough.

It's just that I didn't expect it to end up like this.

At this moment, he was also a little shocked in his heart, Dong Ce, who was a straight thief, was so powerful! If you want to attack him, I don't know if it's right or wrong.

But then he sneered: "It's just a hundred households, like ants, and they will be crushed to death as soon as they stretch out their hands." ”

No matter how powerful he is, he still dares to offend Shangguan, flout the law of the country, and openly rebel?

The person who sent the letter, Hou Jiawei also inquired carefully, although it was a little muddy, but he was very honest, and he had explained everything in 1510, and there were no flaws.

After a long time, Hou Jiawei finally sighed and paced back and forth in the room for a few steps, feeling a little lighter.

In any case, Xu Rujian is finally dead, and his goal has been achieved. Without Xu Ruji, the urgent pioneer, to divide his own power in Zhenqiang Fort, Liu Ruozai would not be so happy to deal with himself. There is still a fight here, and he is not a character without a backstage and shallow roots!

The only thing he was worried about now was whether it was possible for Dong Ce to know that this was instructed by himself.

"Will the captured horse thief leak his secrets?"

Shaking his head, he felt unlikely, Bai Mazi did this The novel is extremely secretive, except for him, even the closest henchmen don't know, and it's unlikely that it will be leaked.

After thinking about it, I put my mind at ease.

"This Dong Ce is brave and strategic, he can defeat Bai Mazi's three hundred horse thieves with only eight horses, Bai Mazi's means I know, these three hundred horsemen are all bandits who can fight, all of them are inferior horses, hard bows can be opened, and they don't want to die when they see blood. Even if you are waiting for five or six hundred officers and soldiers, you are not an opponent! How can this Dong Erlang fight, but he can't be the hero of the world with one hundred? If this kind of talent can be included in the bag, I am afraid that it will be extremely effective. It's a pity......"

Hou Jiawei sighed, and felt very sorry for Dong Ce's categorical rejection that day. It's just that this trace of emotion disappeared immediately after a flash in his mind, his face instantly became ruthless, and a cold smile flashed at the corner of his mouth: "Dong Ce, wait, wait for Lao Tzu to stabilize Liu Ruozai and then clean up, dare to lose my face in public, Lao Tzu wants you to survive and not die!" I heard that you took advantage of Sun Ruhu's beautiful girl, and Lao Tzu also let you taste the taste of watching yourself cuckold! ”

Almost at the same time, in Liu Ruozai's mansion in Zhenhe Fort, his mansion was much worse than Hou Jiawei's, but it was also clean. The heavy rain poured down, drenching the blue bricks and stone slabs spotlessly, and it was also elegant and quiet.

In the study, Liu Ruozai, who was dressed in cloth, also frowned and looked at the letter in his hand. They were all sent by Dong Ce, describing one thing, but the content was very different.

Liu Ruozai's face already has wrinkles, like a knife and an axe.

He read the letter three times in a row before putting it down, and suddenly stood up, slammed his fists on the table in front of him, his face was full of anger, his eyes were almost spewing fire, and he scolded: "Hou Jiawei, you husband, the old man will definitely cut you with a thousand knives!" ”

The angry roar quickly died out in the pouring rain outside the window, and didn't travel far.

Dong Ce wrote his inference carefully in his heart, and with Liu Ruozai's shrewdness, he immediately deduced it from all aspects, Dong Ce said that I am afraid that it is eight × nine and ten!

And maybe even Liu Ruozai himself didn't find out, or he found out but didn't want to admit it - when he saw this letter, he was also afraid!

How can this Hou Jiawei play cards so unruly? How dare he be so bold?

There was a faint thought in my heart: "What if I really provoke Hou Jiawei and he actually sent troops to kill me?" Without a fierce general like Dong Ce, could I have saved my life? ”

A slight fear was followed by an irrepressible outrage.

In these years, the civil and military officials have killed the generals like pigs and dogs, how could Liu Ruozai ever put Hou Jiawei in his eyes? And now that the chess pieces he planted are dead in such an unknown way, Liu Ruozai is like a slap in the face, and it hurts hotly!

However, he finally held a high position for a long time, and his qi cultivation skills were also very deep, so he quickly calmed down his anger and began to think about countermeasures.

It's just that after a long time, he is getting more and more irritable. Because he was a little panicked to find that he was really helpless against Hou Jiawei! Such people who will die and break the net once they are desperate will not be caught and killed by the neck! And once he turns his face and does not have strong soldiers and horses to support him, what will happen to him?

"That's right! Dong Ce! Recruit Dong Ce to come. ”

Liu Ruozai suddenly thought of him, of course he didn't want to invite Dong Ce to ask him what his strategy was-he looked down on martial artists from the bottom of his bones, although he had a somewhat high opinion of Dong Ce, he didn't think that he could have any clever plans for things that he was helpless about. He was only recruited to protect himself.

As for Xu Ruji's death, Liu Ruozai just glanced at it lightly and didn't pay attention to it at all.

A mere military attaché, as inferior as a pig and a dog, dies and dies, what's the big deal? It's just a tool to deal with Hou Jiawei by himself, not to mention, now Liu Ruozai has found a tool that seems more suitable.

However, he should not be in a hurry, and the province made Dong Ce think that he relied on him, and he was a little arrogant.

Liu Ruozai made up his mind to dry him for a few days first, and he was not in a hurry.

―――――――― Dividing Line――――――――

The rain finally stopped.

The heavy rain that lasted for three days and three nights seemed to turn the heavens and the earth into an obscure and gloomy ink painting, in which the storm and rain were dripping with paintbrushes.

Although the rain had stopped, the sun had not yet risen, heavy clouds piled up on the horizon, and the cold dampness after the rain swept by the wind.

A few horses came slowly from the southeast direction, the ground was slippery after the rain, there was mud everywhere, and the war horse could not get up at speed, and if you didn't pay attention to it, the war horse stroked to the side, which was the end of the person turning over on the horse. The war horse is stabbed to the side, even if it is scrapped, it cannot be used in the future, let alone on the battlefield, and if people are unlucky, they can't say if they fall to death directly, no matter how they are, they will have a broken tendon. It is a person who understands horses and loves horses, and in such cases, they all ride horses slowly.

Dong Ce gently pulled the reins of the horse, flicked the horsewhip in his hand lightly, and pointed to the front: "It's here, it's here." ”

The crowd looked forward.

In front of him was a huge wasteland, I am afraid that it would not be more than ten miles wide, and the ground was not very flat, but similar to the gentle hilly terrain. Originally, it was a barren area, but with the invasion of heavy rain in the past few days, the tenacious vitality of the plant was immediately revealed. Almost overnight, the infested wasteland turned green,

It seems to have been unexplored since ancient times, and it still retains its pristine gloom and desolation.

The whole moor was a yellow-green hue, and when a gust of wind came, the long grass fell down, and there were some small white flowers scattered in between. There are very few trees here, and the occasional few are very lively, although it is summer, and some of them are also dressed in brown jackets.

Because of the rain, many puddles appeared on the wasteland, one by one, and the streams that came out of nowhere, cut a big hole in the vast and empty wilderness, and many gray or red boulders on both sides of the stream, which made it even more desolate and desolate.

Slightly north of the center is a rocky mountain, which at first glance gives people the feeling of being rough and weird, like a military household who can't eat on the nine sides, half-naked, revealing skinny muscles.

The peak is not high, that is, about one or two hundred meters high, but it is extremely steep, and the cliffs stand on all sides, and there is no angle for climbing. On the surrounding flat ground, many large boulders rolled down, the smallest of which was the size of a house. The top of the mountain is bare, and there is no grass.

From a distance, on the top of the stone mountain and near the left, it seems that some ruins can still be seen.

Rough, lonely, desert, and cold are the main colors here, but here is more like a footnote to a word - backcountry.

This is a desolate poverty that makes people frown when they look at it.

"How is this here?" Everyone looked at each other, and they were all a little confused, and they couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in the adult's gourd.

This place is called Dashigu, and everyone is familiar with this place.

The north of Datong Town, this place is the nine plains of the pre-Qin Dynasty, the Shuo Fang of the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Xia Prefecture of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the clouds of Liaojin, which is the shape of Hebei Shanxi since ancient times. Since ancient times, it has been a battleground for soldiers, and for thousands of years, countless battles have taken place here. And this big stone is one of them.

It is said that this place was an ancient battlefield thousands of years ago, at the beginning of the founding of this dynasty, General Xu Da was still here with an army of 100,000 and the Mongolian Tartars fought a fierce battle, and the killing was so bad that the color of the heaven and the earth changed, and its blood was yellow! Over the past thousand years, this area with a radius of more than ten miles is afraid that there are no less than hundreds of thousands of bones!

It is said that at night, there is a burst of ghost crying, which is terrifying to hear. In such a fierce place, the people naturally avoided it before it was too late, even if it was daytime, it was also a detour. In fact, the edge of this place is between Anxiangdun and Shilipu.

Originally, Dong Ce didn't care much about this, but since he got Liu Ruozai's order to collect the displaced people and train the troops in Tuntian, he began to pay attention. After staying there for a few days after rushing to Shilipu this time, Dong Ce mobilized all the limited geographical information stored in Shilipu, and explored carefully, trying to find an excellent place. These days, he has recruited a lot of old people to come and inquire one by one.

So finally decided to be here, and as soon as the heavy rain stopped today, Dong Ce took them to visit.
