Chapter 2016 One Ride as a Thousand (How's the Weather over There Now?)

Xiang Shaolong's words were not groundless. In fact, they had already encountered a horse thief attack before this, and because of this, after seeing Fang Zheng, Xiang Shaolong immediately thought of asking this "horse thief killer" for help. But Fangzheng's attitude towards this is still the same as before, as long as there is money to get it, everything is negotiable... Anyway, it doesn't matter how many horse thieves are killed, doesn't it?

And Xiang Shaolong also has his own plan, now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the clear, although there are a lot of envoys, once it is confirmed that those horse thieves are actually soldiers of the King of Wei, then it can be said that they have already entered the territory of Wei. If the den of thieves is found, King Wei can mobilize all forces to exterminate them.

Under such circumstances, the solution Xiang Shaolong came up with was...to stick to it.

"We will find a nearby mountain to face the dangers of the plain, build earthen villages and ditches, store wild game springs, and guard him for ten and a half months. At the same time, we will send Qingqiu to Fengqiu to ask for help from the guard there. No matter how the king of Wei intends to kill him Kill us, after all, we are still on the surface the envoys sending the princess to make peace with the King of Wei, and the other party will definitely have to follow, once Wei Jun is with him, it will be very difficult for the King of Wei to do anything at that time."

"Xiang Bingwei's method is good, but the general is a little worried. What if those troops intercept the Qingqi scouts, or kill them secretly, and claim that they have not received any information about us?"

At this moment, another general also asked, but Xiang Shaolong smiled, and then looked at Fang Zheng beside him.

"In fact, sending Qingqi scouts to send a message is just a pretense. As you said, the other party has a lot of ways to pretend that they have not received the news. But the summoning is only one, and the second is to force the other party to come early. Then, we can send them Catch them all."

"Xiang Bingwei seems to be very sure about this?"

Seeing Xiang Shaolong's calm face, the others were surprised, but Xiang Shaolong shook his head.

"All in all, we have no other way at the moment but to give it a go."

The others thought for a moment and felt the same, so they took the order and went away, each scattered to do their own work. At this moment, Ji Yanran also got off the carriage next to her and walked to Fangzheng's side.

"Mr. Fang, Yan Ran just chatted with the third princess. I heard about the situation here. It seems that the situation here is not good."

"Yeah, but just don't do our business."

Fang Zheng put his hands behind his back, looking at the blue sky, white clouds, grassland and lakes in front of him.

"What are Ji's plans? I just talked with Xiang Bingwei, and I plan to stay and help them deal with these horse thieves. If Ji thinks it's dangerous, why don't you go back to Daliang first?"

"Master Fang wants to stay?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Ji Yanran frowned slightly.

"Mr. Fang should know that these horse thieves are not real horse thieves."

"But since they call themselves horse thieves, then they are horse thieves, and what's wrong with making money?"

Fang Zheng chuckled and looked at Ji Yanran again.

"It can protect the safety of one side, eliminate villains, and get a lot of money into the account. Isn't this a blood-earned business?"

"Mr. Fang is really...unexpected."

Facing Fangzheng's answer, Ji Yanran was also speechless, not knowing what to say. Generally speaking, all young talents, in front of themselves, are all arrogant and arrogant, treating money like dung. Like Fangzheng's frank expression that Xiaoqianqian is really sweet... It really made Ji Yanran feel a little speechless.

"correct."

Fangzheng didn't intend to continue discussing those horse thieves, but changed the topic.

"Have you met Xiang Bingwei, Ji? What do you think of him?"

"Xiang Bingwei... um..."

Ji Yanran tilted her head and thought for a moment.

"The third princess seems to be quite infatuated with him, but it's a pity that the two people's identities are too different, not to mention that the third princess is going to Wei Guo to marry King Anli... Hey, daughters in this world are hard-working people .”

Speaking of this, Ji Yanran also heaved a long sigh, she is smart and very clear about the information from the court. So there is a clear understanding of the whole thing. Although it is said that the third princess of Zhao State went to Wei State to marry the King of Wei, in fact, the King of Wei did not have this idea, and it was Lord Xinling who really made it happen. It is also because of this that King Wei is very dissatisfied with him, which is normal. A courtier can even make decisions about the king's marriage, so why not let you, Mr. Xinling, be the king of this country.

And Zhao Qian herself is even more pitiful, no matter whether she reaches Daliang safely or not, there will be no good results. Even if she is married to King Wei, just seeing that King Wei is willing to send someone to kill her, it can be seen that King Wei is very dissatisfied with this marriage. Even if the two get married in the end, Zhao Qian's best ending is to be thrown into the cold palace , It was almost a muddle-headed "sudden illness and death".

Also as a woman, Ji Yanran also understood Zhao Qian's difficulties, but it was a pity that her status was aloof, and it was not easy to intervene in this kind of affairs. Apart from feeling sorry for Zhao Qian, there was nothing she could do.

"Everyone, Ji, don't need to worry so much. If Xiang Bingwei is really Zhao Qian's hero, he will definitely rescue her."

"This is easier said than done..."

Ji Yanran couldn't help laughing, but she was taken aback when she saw Fang Zheng's mysterious smile.

"Could it be that there is something hidden in it?"

"Hehehe, in short, we just need to watch the show. In any case, this is their own problem."

Fangzheng shook his head, not intending to spoil it.

For the next three days, the envoys camped on the spot, dug ravines, and built earthen walls. They built a simple version of the earthen fortress. Fangzheng watched it fresh and lively, and found it quite interesting. It was also the first time for him to see how the ancients dug pits and built positions on the spot. After all, in the main world, this kind of work was usually done by mages. Now it seems that this can be done without relying on spells.

Xiang Shaolong sent Qingqi scouts to ask for help, and he himself was busy all day to organize the position. Finally, after three days, the scouts reported that nearly ten thousand horse thieves were coming from the plain.

Hearing this news, Xiang Shaolong's face collapsed.

Others were not much better off.

After another day, at dusk, a large number of horse thieves appeared on the grassland in such a mighty manner.

"The King of Wei seems to have really made up his mind."

Standing on a high place, looking at the army of horse thieves in the distance, Fang Zheng chuckled, while Ji Yanran looked serious. Although she knew that the situation was critical before, she never thought that it would be so critical. There are tens of thousands of horse thieves, which shows that King Anli is determined to kill Zhao Qian. You must know that the number of this envoy team is only about a thousand people, and there are some family servants among them, and there are only a few hundred people who can really fight. Use it?

Hundreds of cavalry against tens of thousands of horse thieves?

If you are all driving 59, there is still hope.

While Fangzheng was blowing the wind, Xiang Shaolong came out of the third princess's tent with a serious expression, came to Fangzheng's side, and cupped his hands at Fangzheng.

"Mr. Fang, I'm sorry to trouble you this time."

"No problem, but Xiang Bingwei didn't forget to promise me."

Fangzheng squinted his eyes and looked at Xiang Shaolong. He didn't need to enter the tent to know what was going on. Zhao Qian saw that the enemy army was strong and felt that she would die this time, so she asked Xiang Shaolong for a dagger. When the city was broken, he committed suicide directly, so as not to be insulted by those bandits.

And Xiang Shaolong was also stimulated, and vowed to keep the three princesses safe, but he also knew whether this could be done was only unknown, so he had to find Fang Zheng again to confirm—after all, the other party had thousands of people!

The most exaggerated thing is that one rider is worth a thousand, and one is an enemy of ten thousand. I am afraid that no one would have thought about it in their dreams.

However, Xiang Shaolong had seen Fangzheng show off his supernatural powers before, so he still had some confidence in Fangzheng's unpredictable methods. Seeing that Fangzheng was so calm at this moment, he was also relieved.

"That's great, please don't worry, if Mr. Fang can help Xiang Mou through this difficult time, Xiang Mou will be very grateful."

"Ha ha."

Fangzheng glanced at Xiang Shaolong, then turned his head away. I don't care if you are grateful or not, but you can't lose money. If you lose money, don't blame me for being rude.

I didn't even compete with you for the leading role, so asking for a small amount of money as a reward isn't too much!

If you don't even give me money, be careful that I sell you to Mr. Longyang.

"Boom boom boom boom!!!"

At this moment, the sound of war drums sounded from the bottom of the mountain, and everyone immediately came to the front of the formation and looked down the mountain. I saw that those horse thieves had already cut down the trees and blocked all the escape routes around them, which was almost equivalent to surrounding them. At this moment, most of the other members of the envoy saw this scene, their faces were ashen. After all, no matter what angle they looked at, they were all doomed.

"They want to attack the city at night."

Watching the horse thieves hang up lanterns and raise wooden shields, Ji Yanran also looked solemn. Even she clenched the long sword in her hand.

"Don't worry, Ji, you just need to watch a good show."

Seeing Ji Yanran's nervous look, Fang Zheng smiled lightly, then he raised his head and looked towards the sky.

"It's also good at night. In this way, everyone won't have to see something unsightly."

"Mr. Fang? What do you mean?"

Hearing Fangzheng's inexplicable words, not only Ji Yanran was rather surprised, but even the other generals looked over suspiciously. But Fangzheng didn't answer, just whistled lightly. Soon, his huge white deer came from behind and stopped obediently beside Fangzheng.

"It's very simple. Fang hates horse thieves the most in his life. Since these horse thieves have appeared in front of Fang, don't expect to go back alive..."

Having said that, Fangzheng casually patted the wooden box hanging behind the white deer. The next moment, the wooden box opened with a sound, and then a guqin quietly flew out of it, and landed firmly in front of Fangzheng.

It's a pity that this is not the Three Kingdoms, otherwise I would have come up with an empty city plan.

Fangzheng stretched out his hand and stroked the strings, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

So, let's get started.
