One Thousand and Sixty: The Legendary Iron Eater Legion (2)

Meng Zhan is scheming, but he can't hold back his pig teammates and wastes the best opportunity.

By the time a few urgent letters from eight hundred miles arrived at their destination, it was somewhat late, and the army of Huang Song and Jiang Pengji had already entered Cangzhou.

Fortunately, Huang Song said that his task was to contain the troops in Cangzhou, and he was not very dedicated to fighting, and he did not do his best, so the pressure on the south of Cangzhou was relatively small. In contrast, the pressure in the north of Cangzhou was great, and Jiang Pengji led the troops straight in.

When Meng Zhan's secret letter arrived, her army had already breached the Cangzhou border defense line, tearing a hole with a tough posture.

Facing the sudden attack, Cangzhou was caught off guard, and before realizing what happened, the site changed owners.

The bad situation didn't improve until Meng Zhan's secret letter arrived.

Meng Zhan knew very well that Jiang Pengji was able to break through the Hanchang Pass in a short period of time, which showed that she had a good fighting power.

If you want to win, you need to make a unique move.

He wrote a letter and added his patriarch's token, preparing to invite the Gaoyue tribe to go out.

The Gaoyue tribe is a beast-controlling alien tribe that Meng Zhan's ancestors befriended, and almost every member of the tribe can control fierce beasts.

Because of the friendship of the ancestors, the Meng family took care of the Gaoyue clan for generations, and the Gaoyue clan relied on this kindness to obtain countless benefits from the Meng clan.

Meng Zhan asked them to send troops to stop Jiang Pengji's army, and they had no reason to refuse.

However, the Gaoyue people were raised very well by the Meng family, they had a big appetite and were insatiable.

They can agree to Meng Zhan's request, but they have to pay military expenses, and they will be paid a million guan and ten thousand cattle and sheep.

When Meng Zhan heard about this, he sneered and responded——

At first, the friendship between the Gaoyue people and the Meng family was very simple, and the Meng family only needed to prepare the territory for them to live in.

As time goes by, more and more forces are coveting Cangzhou. After all, Cangzhou is rich in war horses. Who wouldn't be greedy?

If the Meng family wants to keep the cornucopia of "Cangzhou", they must have their own cards, and the Gaoyue family has become the best choice.

Since then, the Gaoyue people have become blood-sucking insects attached to Meng Shi, and Meng Shi can't do anything to them.

At this moment, I want to repeat the old trick——

"Yes, but what they want, we can't give it now. We can only pay a deposit of 100,000 guan and 1,000 cattle and sheep first. After the willow thief leads the troops to withdraw, the remaining gap will be filled in one go." Meng Zhanxi The anger is not visible, as if the other party's conditions are nothing.

In fact, Meng Zhan only planned to give the "deposit" to coax the Gaoyue people into working hard, and the rest of the money——

Hehe, it also depends on whether the Gaoyue tribe is alive or not!

The patriarch of the Gaoyue clan did not suspect fraud, and he was relieved when he saw the tenth of the deposit.

"Tsk—the children of the Meng family are getting more and more stingy, and they send us hundreds of thousands of pennies every year—how about sending beggars?" The head of the Gaoyue clan smiled triumphantly. After returning to the clan area, he whispered to his confidant privately, "This When you encounter difficulties later, why don’t you obediently hand over a large amount of money to eliminate disasters? Why did you go early? If Meng Zhan’s son is not so stingy, maybe he won’t need his military expenses this time.”

Take people's money and eliminate disasters for others.

The Gaoyue tribe took the "military deposit" given by Meng Zhan, and mobilized 5,000 elite and beast legions to march to the front line.

Although the Gaoyue tribe only dispatched 5,000 strong men, in a battle, 20,000 to 30,000 enemies are not enough for them to kill.

The Gaoyue people live in a relatively closed life. They know Jiang Pengji's name, but they don't take her seriously.

"It's just a woman...Meng Zhan can't even win against a woman, he is useless. If Liu Xi is captured alive, he will have to discuss it with Meng Zhan's son. The annual subsidy can't be only 150,000 yuan. It takes 500,000 guan.”

Although the Gaoyue tribe is very rich, no one would dislike their lack of money.

In the past, the Meng family treated them well, and the money they sent up every year ranged from 300,000 guan to as little as 200,000 guan.

Ever since the stingy Meng Zhan became the head of the family, the money he gave has been getting less and less every year.

Cangzhou has well-developed waterways, and merchants traveling from south to north will stop here, and the business development is very good.

The Meng family occupied Cangzhou,

I don't know how much money they have earned, but half a million yuan a year is not enough for them to put a gap between their teeth.

Now that someone knocked on the door, did you think of their Gaoyue tribe?

Humph——

If they don't take the opportunity to cheat, the Meng family may not know who their ancestors relied on to make their fortunes!

Jiang Pengji didn't know about this at all, because the scouts sent out hadn't sent back any news yet.

"My lord, after passing this pass is Luofengwu—"

Jiang Pengji looked at the angle of view of the live broadcast room, and took a rough look at the terrain of Luofengwu.

"Luofengwu? What's so special about this place?"

Meng Hun explained, "Luofengwu is located in Qianyan County in the north of Cangzhou. Luofengwu has dense forests, low mountains and gentle slopes, and wild animals often appear. The most important thing is that most of the people in Qianyan County are related to the Gaoyue tribe. Luofengwu is the clan land of the Gaoyue clan—"

If they wanted to attack Cangzhou Meng County, they couldn't bypass Qianyan County, let alone the Gaoyue tribe.

Jiang Pengji said nonchalantly, "What's wrong with the Gaoyue tribe's land? Surrender if you know what you know. If you don't know what to do, just fight there."

Meng Hun choked for a moment——

It's really the protagonist's style to fight when there is a disagreement.

Meng Hun couldn't persuade him, but Wei Ci couldn't just sit idly by. He said, "The army led by the lord is an army of benevolence and righteousness. Naturally, the generals should be courteous first and then soldiers. If the Gaoyue people are willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, that would be great. If not, then It’s not too late to send troops.”

As soon as he came up, he beat people up violently, and his reputation was not very good.

Jiang Pengji pouted.

She came to attack Cangzhou, but she had to greet her before the attack.

Sure enough, she still can't understand the art of war in ancient times.

Just as we were talking, a sound of horseshoes came from afar, and our army scouts brought back a strong man dressed strangely.

The temperature is getting warmer now, but ordinary people are still wrapped up tightly. The strong man of the foreign race in front of him is very different. He only wears an animal skin vest, a tiger skin flower skirt, and a circle of brightly colored feathers on his head. The outer skin is covered with ferocious animal patterns.

The eyes are like eagles, the wide and long nose is slightly sunken, and the thick brown lips occupy half of the chin.

He swept his eyes around, clasped his fists in salute, and said fiercely, "I am the envoy of the Gaoyue tribe, and now I want to see your lord."

The strong man's elegant speech is not very good, and his accent is not correct, which sounds quite awkward.

"An envoy from the Gaoyue tribe?" Jiang Pengji raised her eyebrows, "What are you doing here?"

After she finished speaking, she secretly glanced at Meng Hun——

Meng Hun was in favor of the ceremony before the soldiers, did the co-authors know that the whereabouts of the army had been leaked?

The strong man looked at Jiang Pengji dissatisfied.

"Is this how you treat guests?" the brawny man asked, "Is this how you are treated when you are sent as an envoy by the patriarch's order?"

The Gaoyue people have a very high status in Cangzhou, and many Han people will bend down to salute or retreat when they see them. The Gaoyue people don't fear anyone except the nobles. Living in such an environment for a long time, the Gaoyue people have developed a strange sense of superiority, consciously superior to others.
