Chapter 719: Two Places Blossom

The three earth-level generals had strong control over the army and a sharp grasp of the battlefield, and they quickly retreated to Jinyuan Village.

Lin Mu, Zang Ba and others, fearing the consequences, had no choice but to stop the war.

As night fell, the bonfire lit up, and the two sides faced each other at the entrance of Jinyuan Village.

Min Hu's change was beyond the expectations of everyone in the Great Wilderness Territory. Even the god general Huang Zhong did not notice the existence of these three people, which shows how deliberate he was.

However, what surprised Lin Mu was that these three earth-level generals did not attack when he led the Qingyang Tiger Warriors to charge, but instead attacked Min Hu in advance.

They must have realized that Huang Zhong's presence would make the plan a success.

These three are definitely not mediocre generals!

Lin Mu stared at the three earth-level generals in Jinyuan Village with great enthusiasm. If possible, take these three people. Although everything went wrong today, I got to know four talents!

"General Lin Mu, we are soldiers under the command of the governor of Luling. We are here to garrison Jinyuan Village under the governor's order. I wonder why General Lin attacked us for no reason? Isn't the general afraid of the Han court's investigation?" The leader was General Ling, who spoke first after both sides calmed down.

"This general is too kind. We are just taking back the territory that belongs to us. This Jinyuan Village was built with my sweat and blood, and the name of the village was also given by me." Lin Mu said loudly.

Under the light of the bonfire, the upright Lin Mu showed the demeanor of a wise general, without the slightest stage fright or embarrassment, as if Min Hu's capture was just a matter of no harm.

Wang Lang, the governor of Luling! Good! Good! Lin Mu finally knew who this group of people belonged to.

Kuaiji County has a very large area, and its neighbors include Wu County, Yuzhang County, Danyang County, Luling County, etc.

Luling County is located in the southernmost part of Yangzhou. Although there is no official road to Kuaiji County, it is also a neighboring county.

I didn't expect that a mere county magistrate would be promoted to a governor after defeating Xu Zhao. His political background is really amazing.

In the feudal dynasty, it was common for officials to be promoted based on military merits. It was not uncommon for a person to be promoted to the position of prime minister because of his merits.

These three generals were Wang Lang's subordinates. If he succeeded in poaching them, he would be furious.

"Hehe... Jinyuan Village was purchased from you by our army's Sima Longxiang at a price, and it belongs to Sima. Your move is to attack and defend without reason, which is the behavior of a traitor."

"Does General Lin want to follow the footsteps of the traitor Xu Zhao?" General Ling said sternly, always wanting to have the upper hand.

"Buy? Oh, what do you buy with? Gold coins? Destiny gold coins? Reputation? None of them." Lin Mu said indifferently.

"You and I should all know that Sima Longxiang took advantage of the situation to pressure me to give up Jinyuan Village. However, that was just a verbal agreement. After that agreement, we have another verbal agreement, that is, we can attack and defend each other and compete with each other."

"Jinyuan Village is just a place for us to train our troops."

"We are acting within the rules. I think Luling Governor Wang Lang has no excuse to name us as traitors!" Lin Mu said with a righteous face without changing his expression.

Sima Longxiang is dead, so what is there to be afraid of? Is there any evidence? Can we confront him at this time?

"You..." A ground-level general next to him heard Lin Mu's sophistry and pointed at Lin Mu angrily.

And Lin Mu and others also smiled indifferently.

History is written by the victors. The strong are respected. At this moment, no matter how Lin Mu sophistry, it is reasonable. Because they are surrounding Jinyuan Village.

And Wang Lang's troops, because they are at a disadvantage, although they have excuses, their momentum is not enough, how can they ask for justice?

General Ling, who was in the lead, also knew this, and he thought about it with a gloomy face.

Should we defend Jinyuan Village tonight and wait for news from Wenyuan Town? Or should we use Min Hu's order to buy time to wait for reinforcements? Or should we directly use Min Hu's order to let Lin Mu give them a way to leave Jinyuan Village?

General Ling hesitated.

While he was thinking about countermeasures, Lin Mu on the opposite side continued to speak: "Several generals are serving the Dragon Court of the Han Dynasty. I have several positions suitable for you three. Why don't you come to assist me and serve the court better?"

"You still want to recruit us? Are you qualified? We are the army of the governor. How can you, a small general, recruit us?" The hot-tempered earth-level general who pointed at Lin Mu before said arrogantly.

"Virtue and ability are not a dispute in words." Lin Mu laughed. He said these words just to plant a fuse. As for being able to recruit these three people immediately at this moment, it is impossible.

After weighing again and again, General Ling still felt that retreat was the safest. It is unknown whether the super tiger general hidden in the dark will rise up again. If such a thing really happens, they have no chance of survival at all.

Lin Mu on the opposite side is not a kind person.

Judging from the previous situation, he is definitely determined to slaughter all enemies in one fell swoop.

...

"Lord, just let them go?" Zang Ba looked at Wang Lang's army that entered the dark forest and said with a puzzled look.

"Let them go. There will be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future." Lin Mu looked at the departing black shadow with an inexplicable smile. He was relieved in his heart. With Huang Zhong's army, it was really different.

"The spies in the south of Yangzhou were mobilized because of Zhicai's needs. There was a gap, but I didn't expect that Wang Lang would take advantage of it and plot against us. Haha..." Lin Mu said with a weird smile on his lips, which looked a bit gloomy in the dark.

At present, Lin Mu did not invest the energy of the Night Shadow Department among the princes, but made full efforts to layout in Taiping Dao, letting Xi Zhicai take charge.

"I think Wang Lang became the governor recently. It may have happened at the same time as the promotion of General Fubo to the lord." Huang Zhong's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he whispered.

"Since he plotted against us, let's plot against him. It's a courtesy." Looking at the swaying black shadows on the dark forest, Lin Mu smiled like a fox.

After a pause, Lin Mu said, "Feng Xiao can take the teleportation array, which is much more convenient."

The chief strategist of the Great Wilderness Territory took action? ! Haha... Wang Lang is going to be unlucky.

"Lord, do you want to take those three generals into your pocket?" Zang Ba said.

"Lord, you should have a bigger plan, for example, the remaining more than 100,000 elites..." Huang Zhong smiled and raised his head.

"No matter what, it's better to let Chief Guo bring the last general Xu Huang here." Zang Ba's eyes lit up and said in a concentrated voice.

Zang Ba had a deep understanding of Guo Jia's plan.

Previously, he returned to Taishan County to recruit soldiers. Although there was a recruitment order from Lin Mu, the number of recruits was still very limited.

Cross-domain recruitment was a sensitive matter that the Dragon Court was taboo and could not be reckless.

When the Dragon Court of the Han Dynasty was not in chaos, private recruitment was a sensitive matter and could easily cause attacks from political enemies. Moreover, Zang Ba recruited soldiers openly, which was even more eye-catching. However, if there was a reasonable reason, that was another matter.

On this issue, Zang Ba consulted Guo Jia, and Guo Jia did not think much about it. He directly mentioned a custom in Taishan County [hunting ceremony] and solved the problem.

This custom was just a simple adult hunting ceremony, but under Guo Jia's suggestion and his father's operation, it turned into a recruitment ceremony.

The little wisdom in it was linked together, and even his father admired it.

This was also the first time that Zang Ba felt Guo Jia's strategy. So he called Guo Jia "Chief Guo".

"Xu Huang, I can't plan for the time being." Lin Mu waved his hand and smiled slightly, as if he had a pearl of wisdom in his hand.

Lin Mu was not surprised that Zang Ba believed in Guo Jia.

"Is that so? Good!" Zang Ba did not ask further.

The night fell, and Jinyuan Village returned to peace.

What Lin Mu did not know was that when a series of changes occurred in Jinyuan Village, Wenyuan Town was brightly lit, and the people of the Great Wilderness Territory were cleaning up the messy Wenyuan Town Wall.

"Lord Feng, the enemy has retreated... Shouldn't we notify the lord?" Li Dian asked with a tired face.

"No need to notify... It's a small matter. He must have a difficult battle to recruit Zang Ba. I won't bother you for now." Feng Zhong shook his head lightly, grinned, flashed a touch of pain, adjusted his body slightly, and touched his chest.

There was a hideous scar on Feng Zhong's chest, and it hurt when he spoke.

There was a faint strange purple residual light lingering on this scar.

And this scar seemed to be caused by the blade of an axe.
