A stone caused a thousand sensation. When everyone below could not sit still after hearing this, their faces changed drastically.

Without waiting for the others to speak, Chen Sheng continued: "The vanguard troops have arrived in Shiniu Town. According to the information discovered by the spies, there are at least 150,000 troops in the Zhenguo Army and other cadre troops. Let's discuss how to deal with it now."

He rubbed his eyebrows. The problem of Xia Pei Mansion was not solved yet. Now the Zhenguo Army is here again, and unpleasant things are one after another.

"How is this possible?"

When the people in the tent heard this, they looked incredible. The vanguards had already arrived in Shiniu Town, so wouldn't it be only three days away? No, even if the person who reported the news quickly took half a day on the way. In this way, the journey of the army was less than three days away.

"Is the news about Palm Palm accurate?"

Some people even doubt the truth or falsehood of the news, after all, this is not impossible.

Didn’t it mean that the Zhenguo Army was confronting the Black Armored Army? Why did it suddenly appear here? The two places are not close together. Did they fly over? Panhe and Ningyang Palaces no longer need it?

For a moment, everyone in the tent had a question mark on their faces. It was not their fault. The communications in this era were backward and the area was wide, so the news naturally became blocked.

It would be better if there were communication tools such as pigeons, otherwise you would rely solely on manpower, climb mountains and wading all the way, and finally convey the news. The difficulties and obstacles can be imagined.

In addition, there are factory guards in Liu Feng's territory, and there are secret inspection departments there. Although Chen Sheng sent a lot of people to these two places to be spies, they basically went there but did not return, which is also one of the reasons why their news is blocked.

The most important thing is the intentional concealment of Cui Kui, the man who was the man of Wuwei. Since he learned that the second prince was captured, he realized that the court and Liu thief would not start a war for the time being. Sure enough, not long after, Kyoto came a new decree.

Immediately afterwards, the 60,000 troops in the town were broken into pieces, quietly left the southern part of Ningyang Prefecture, bypassed Tangyuan Prefecture from Huzhou, and entered Yixia Prefecture on the west side of Tangyuan Prefecture. Then, they summoned 100,000 auxiliary soldiers and civilians in Yixia Prefecture, as well as a large number of ships, and went straight to the prefecture with the help of the tributary of the Green Water River, so they arrived in Shiniu Town so quickly.

Cui Kui led the army here for two purposes. One was to defeat Chen Sheng, a rebel group, and rescue the prefecture, and the other was to block the pace of the Northern Wei army's going south here.

In the camp, Chen Sheng looked at the expectant gazes below and shook his head, "The news is true. Zhenguo Army came by by water, so it is naturally faster than by land. We must send an army to intercept them, otherwise when Zhenguo Army comes here, we may be attacked from front to back."

After he said that, he looked at the leaders below with a bright look, "Who do you want to lead the army?"

Hearing this, the people below suddenly became silent again, staring at their toes, as if they could see the flowers.

Seeing this scene, Chen Sheng was immediately unhappy. He glanced at him and pointed a name directly, "Jiang Rong, didn't you just say that the army was vulnerable? Now it's your turn to show off. I'll give you 300,000 troops, and you can block the Zhenguo Army for me no matter what!"

Jiang Rong's face turned bitter and quickly turned toward Cao Yu. The reason why he didn't want to fight against the Zhenguo Army was, in addition to this being a difficult bone, the bigger reason was that he didn't want to miss the big fat piece of meat in the prefecture.

It is conceivable that if he went to intercept the Zhenguo Army, he would probably not be able to drink soup when the army captured the prefecture.

Cao Yu looked at his subordinate and his lips moved, and finally shook his head. He knew very well that Chen Sheng assigned Jiang Rong to intercept the Zhenguo Army. One of the big reasons was to suppress him, so even if he stood up and opposed it now, he would not change anything. After all, Chen Sheng is now in charge of the plate.

"Then it's decided that it's still late, everyone is hungry, so they're all gone."

After hearing Chen Sheng's final decision, Jiang Rong's face turned pale. After leaving the tent, he followed Cao Yu and the others back to the camp where Minshan Camp was located without saying a word.

After returning to the camp, the group did not separate, but walked into Cao Yu's tent.

After Cao Yu sat down, he looked at Jiang Rong with a calm face and asked, "What? Are you blamed for not speaking for you just now?"

Jiang Rong's heart was thunderous and shook his head quickly and said, "It's nothing, I'm just not convinced. Chen Sheng obviously did it on purpose."

"Even if it is intentional, we have to bear it. Don't forget that here, he is the one who is in charge of the plate, and what he says is a military order. If you dare to disobey just now, he will dare to chop your head in public!"

Cao Yu said coldly.

Jiang Rong felt a little nervous and hurriedly said, "What I taught is the lesson of the plate."

Cao Yu's expression slowed down, "Okay, everyone is hungry, let's have a meal first."

Not long after, some beautiful little ladies walked in with some wild vegetable soup and roasted sweet potatoes. Because the food and grass were gradually insufficient, roasted sweet potatoes were the best food here.

"Why is it roasted sweet potato again? I've been eating this thing for several months."

Cao Fei, who was sitting beside Cao Yu, picked up a sweet potato and looked disgusted.

"Some of them are good to eat, so how can we get so much nonsense?"

Cao Yu glared at his son, picked up a sweet potato, peeled it off, stuffed it into his mouth, closed his eyes and swallowed it, and then took a big mouthful of wild vegetable soup.

At the same time, in a mansion in Shiniu Town, Wuwei Hou Cui Kui and his son-in-law Liu Hong were also enjoying dinner. Unlike the sweet potato and wild vegetable soup on Cao Yu, although they only had two people, the tabletop was filled with various dishes.

But at this time, the two sons-in-law seemed to have no appetite. The dishes on the table, which were both colorful, fragrant and delicious, did not move much. Liu Hong just drank wine one cup after another, and the atmosphere was dull.

"You can leave tomorrow and go to Xiqi to live a good life with anonymity."

Suddenly Cui Kui spoke.

Liu Feng took the wine glass and slapped slightly, stood up and bowed to Cui Kui, "Dad, I'm the one who has implicated you."

Cui Kui Youyou glanced at Liu Hong and shook his head and said, "There is nothing that can be implicated by the family, and the second prince will not do anything to me. It's just a pain to Pingping. Why are you so impulsive?"

Liu Hong's eyes darkened slightly, and he sat down and continued to drink the suffocation.

After a while, Cui Kui suddenly said, "There was an accident when you asked me to help you before."

When Liu Hong heard this, he immediately raised his head and said nervously: "What happened to them?"

"The families of your two brothers are missing and there are no clues. It is obvious that someone took them away. I just don't know who did it, and the technique is very clever."

Cui Kui was also very surprised about this matter. Those two families are ordinary people, so who would take them all away with them in a big way?

Liu Hong was relieved to hear that he was just missing and not being harmed by the second prince.

"Since someone has taken them away for a lot of effort, it means they are not in danger of their lives. You are unable to protect yourself now, so don't worry about that much. Don't always drink, eat something to fill your stomach and get on the road."

Cui Kui said as he picked up some dishes and put them into Liu Hong's bowl.

"Dad, I understand. You should take care of yourself when you lead troops to fight."

"Haha, what is a mere thief? Chen Sheng's troops are far inferior to Liu Feng, and they can be destroyed, but this time my main task is to drive them away."

"Take them away?"

Cui Kui smiled, "That's right, drive them to Jiangzhou."
