Chapter 297 Reception Shangguan Xiu's words moved Wu Nian very much, but precisely because of this, he was even more unwilling to stay in Zhenjun.
He said sternly: "This is the first time that my lord has led an army on an expedition.
I have to accompany my lord on this expedition no matter what."
"But your body" "The villain's body is much stronger now than before, adults don't have to worry about the villain."
Wu Nian said with cupped hands.
Shangguan Xiu took a deep look at Wu Nian, thought about it, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, Mr.
Wu can go out with the army."
"Thank you, sir."
Wu Nian bowed to the ground with excitement on his face.
Shangguanxiu waved to him, turned his eyes to Kong Di, and said, "Mr.
Kong, how about you stay in Zhenjun?"
Kong Di hesitated for a moment, then handed over his hands and accepted the order: "I will obey the arrangements of the adults."
"Well."
Shangguanxiu stood up and said to everyone present: "Okay, if there is nothing else, everyone should go back and prepare.
Early tomorrow morning, our army will set off for Ningnan."
"It's your lord."
All the generals present stepped in and saluted, followed the order, and filed out of the county captain's mansion.
To make a long story short, the next day, early in the morning, Shangguan Xiu led the first and second legions of the Zhen Army to leave Xijing in a mighty manner and marched westward, heading straight to Huya Pass in the west of Zhen.
Two legions, an army of 200,000, the lineup is huge and spectacular.
The marching team is like a long winding river, endless, with no end as far as the eye can see.
In the team, flags are fluttering, ribbons are fluttering, and drums are beating.
Looking at the Zhenjun soldiers in formation, they all have bright armor and a rainbow of momentum.
After hearing the news that the Zhen Army was going to Ningnan, many people from Xijing and surrounding areas spontaneously came to see them off.
Most of the people brought dry food and red ribbons to pray for the Zhen Army soldiers.
As we marched westward, no matter which village or town we passed, there were crowds of people coming to see them off.
When the army arrived at Huya Pass, almost every soldier had bulging bags of dry food in his arms, arms, waists and There are also a lot of red straps tied on the top of the helmet.
It can also be seen from this that the people of Zhenjun strongly support the Zhenjun's westward expedition to Ningnan and fight for the country.
After leaving Huya Pass, heading westward is the Shah area.
After a day's march, the army arrived at Mount Xib.
After staying overnight at the foot of Mount Xibu, the army set off the next morning and continued westward.
Three days later, the Zhen army entered the territory of the Ba people.
Suba, the current chief of the Ba tribe, personally came out to greet Shangguan Xiu.
Shangguanxiu and Suba are old acquaintances.
Suba can become the leader of the Ba tribe, and Shangguanxiu can help him get rid of his biggest competitor, Ding Lun.
Of course, in return, Suba took out the tungsten gold mine in the Ba tribe and shared it with Shangguanxiu.
This is why the Zhen army never lacked spiritual weapons.
After the two met, Suba laughed, opened his arms, walked up to Shangguan Xiu, and gave him a big hug.
He patted Shangguan Xiu's back vigorously and said, "Sir Shangguan, we haven't seen each other for nearly a year, right?"
Shangguanxiu also gave Suba a hug back with the courtesy of the Fan tribe, and said, "It's true that we haven't seen each other for more than a year.
Shahi language."
Shangguanxiu has systematically learned Shahi language, and now he can no longer communicate in Shahi language.
Accessible.
When Suba first met Shangguan Xiu, he was just a battalion lieutenant at Huya Pass, with only a thousand people under his command.
However, in just over a year, Shangguan Xiu had changed from a battalion lieutenant to a county lieutenant. , with four legions in hand and 400,000 soldiers, he can really be called a soldier.
After three days of separation, he looked at him with admiration.

He grinned widely and said: "I have long seen that Lord Shangguan is definitely not a thing in the pond.
He will definitely achieve great success in the future.
Looking at it now, I was indeed right."
"Haha" Shangguanxiu looked up and smiled, waving his hands and saying, "Chief Suba is too polite."
"Sir Shangguan, please come and sit at my clan's residence."
"Please" "Please" Shangguan Xiu and Suba both mounted their horses and walked side by side in front.
Luo Ren, Duan Qiyue, Xiao Jue, Wu Yufei and other generals and Shadow Banner personnel followed, and the entourage brought by Suba also went with them.
On the way to the residence of the Ba people, Suba asked: "Sir Shangguan is leading the army this time, but he is passing through Shah and wants to enter Ningnan."
Shangguanxiu nodded and said, "That's right."
As he spoke, he saw Suba's brows furrowed, as if he had something to hide.
Shangguanxiu asked curiously, "Clan Chief Suba has something to say."
Suba did not answer immediately.
He turned around and waved to the men following him, telling them not to get too close.
Seeing this, Shangguan Xiu also winked at Luo Ren and others, asking them to stay away.
When there was no one around, Suba leaned towards Shangguanxiu and whispered: "Sir Shangguan, to be honest, I recently received a batch of silver from Ningnan, totaling three hundred thousand taels. ” Shangguan Xiu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
For no reason, how could Ningnan send so much money to the Ba people?
He asked in confusion: "Ningnan wants something from the Ba people."
Suba nodded and whispered: "The envoy from Ningnan said that as long as we, the Ba tribe, are willing to send troops to block the retreat of the Feng army entering Ningnan, Ningnan will also send an additional five hundred thousand taels of silver in the future."
Shangguanxiu took a breath.
Suba said faintly: "I think, not only our Ba clan has received money from Ningnan, but other big clans should also have received money from Ningnan.
Ningnan has been so generous this time, it is really hard not to be tempted." , if the Feng army enters Ningnan and fights smoothly, and can win consecutive battles, I think all the tribes in Shah will I have some concerns and dare not rush to send troops to block the Feng Army's retreat.
However, if the Feng Army is unfavorable and suffers a defeat in Ningnan, it is not certain whether the tribes will send troops to assist Ningnan.
Of course, with Shangguan and I Sir, I, the Ba tribe, will naturally not send troops, but I can’t guarantee that for other tribes.”
Ningnan couldn't borrow troops from the Shah tribes, and now he did this again.
The official Xiu rolled his eyes and asked: "Chief Suba, when did this happen?"
"Just seven or eight days ago."
Suba glanced at Shangguan Xiu, cleared his throat, and said slowly: "Ningnan had already given us a large sum of silver before he formally asked us to send troops.
Chapter 297 Reception The son bribed us, what does this mean that Ningnan has a sure chance of victory, that Ningnan is confident that it will definitely defeat the invading Feng army, and the tribes of Shah will definitely send troops to help it in the end, so it dares to unscrupulously spill the beans first The money is used as a foundation.
Sir Shangguan, you and I have a very close relationship.
I have to advise you that entering Ningnan this time is dangerous, so you should proceed with caution.
It is best to station in Shah and not enter Ningnan. " Seeing Shangguan Xiu's wry smile, Suba immediately added: "I know that Lord Shangguan also has the emperor's order on his head.
If he leads his army to stay in Shah, he will definitely attract dissatisfaction and punishment from the Emperor of Feng Kingdom.
But now there is a A great opportunity.”
Shangguanxiu asked: "Oh, what opportunity?"
"Sir Shangguan set off a fire in the Qixi tribe's territory last time, burning most of the Qixi people's forest.
The Qixi people have never forgotten this grudge.
The Feng army will inevitably pass by the Qixi people when they go to Ningnan. territory, with the character of the Qixi people who want money rather than their lives, they will definitely send troops to stop them , Master Shangguan must compensate them first before letting them go.
Master Shangguan can fight them first and deliberately defeat them, and then he can naturally station outside the Qixi people's territory, which will not affect the emperor and the court of Feng State.
There is an explanation."
Suba said while dancing on the horse.
Shangguanxiu rubbed his chin and said with a smile: "This suggestion from Chief Suba sounds really good."
Suba looked up and smiled, patted Shangguan Xiu on the back, and then said with emotion: "I regard Lord Shangguan as a friend, and of course I don't want anything to happen to Lord Shangguan.
The people of Ningnan are cunning, who knows what they are doing behind your back?"
What the hell are you planning?
In my opinion, Lord Shangguan should avoid this battle if he can."

Shangguan Xiu said quietly: "If I choose to avoid the war now, what will happen to the 100,000 soldiers who fought deep into Ningnan before?"
"this" "If there is really a conspiracy hidden in Ningnan and I still sit back and ignore it, then one hundred thousand soldiers will definitely die.
So, regardless of whether there is a conspiracy in Ningnan, it is inevitable for our army to enter Ningnan to fight."
As he spoke, Shangguan Xiu He also patted Suba on the shoulder and said meaningfully: "I am very grateful for Chief Suba's kindness, but it is absolutely impossible for me to avoid the war."
Suba took a deep look at Shangguan Xiu, then shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Sir Shangguan, please don't think that I am lobbying for Ningnan now.
Although I have received money from Ningnan people, I can't help you."
I never promised to do anything for the people of Ningnan.”
"Brothers of the Ba tribe have always valued integrity, and of course I have great trust in Chief Suba."
Shangguanxiu said decisively: "However, I have to fight this battle with Ningnan.
Chief Suba does not need to persuade me anymore."
Suba nodded and said no more.
He changed the subject and said with a smile: "It's rare for Sir Shangguan to come here.
Today, I have to have a good drink with Sir Shangguan and get drunk before resting."
Shangguanxiu smiled, and entered the Ba residence while chatting and laughing with Suba.
The Ba people are a large ethnic group, with several large settlements and even more scattered settlements.
Suba took Guanxiu and others to the nearest residence.
It was very large, with large and small wooden houses standing next to each other, all over the mountains and plains.
There were also many Ba people among them, and people were coming and going in the streets and alleys.
If a city wall was built around the residence, it would be almost like a large city.
After entering the residence, the Ba people on the road all knelt down and saluted respectfully when they saw Suba.
Suba had long been accustomed to this, so he didn't even look at it.
As he walked forward, he said: "Sir Shangguan, here It’s called Agra, and there are 50,000 to 60,000 people from my tribe.”
Shangguanxiu came here for the first time.
He looked at the wooden buildings around him and the Ba people dressed in various costumes and wearing various animal skins.
He thought it was quite new.
He asked: "Here is the Suba chief?"
Are you staying long term?”
