Changsun Wuchuan's eyes were fixed on the aristocrat with the style of the Western Regions in front of him. He had a rather large body and a wide waist, which was surrounded by a palm-wide belt inlaid with jade. His clothes were decorated with brightly colored prismatic patterns.

He came to this town and took out the land deed, but was met with resistance.

"It's just a piece of paper."

"What? That little girl from the Central Plains bought this place, but I don't plan to give it to you. How about it? You Central Plains people are tens of thousands of miles away from us. Why, according to the laws of the Central Plains people?

Article, do you still plan to use it in the Western Region?"

"You look like this, and you want to take down this place from me?"

The fat old man had a name from the Central Plains, and was called Xiao Dayin. At this moment, he looked at Changsun Wuchuan and waved his hand. Two or three strong-backed men had already come over, all of them had martial arts skills.

It seems that he was subdued by Xue Shuangtao last year and had a shadow in his heart.

Changsun Wuchuan made an estimate and found that he had the foundation of the fourth level of internal energy. He had a flying horse in one hand and a long spear in the other. He was ranked among the best in the entire Qilin Army. But even if he killed this person at this moment, it would probably be too much.

We cannot completely capture this place.

This town is not big, but there are still hundreds of defenders.

And I don’t know if there are any other means.

Changsun Wuchuan was very careful and worried about disturbing the situation, so he did not expose his martial arts skills. He only pretended to be so angry that his face turned pale. He stood up, grabbed the land deed, turned around and walked out. Xiao Dayin laughed and said:

"You go back and tell your master that if you want this town, then ask him to come here in person. But coming here in person means you have rejected me. I really want to ask for a place."

"The little lady from the Xue family has been sent here. It's not that I can't think about it."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Go away!"

Although Changsun Wuchou is only in his thirties, his temperament is calm and intelligent, and his temper has lost its irritability. He is more cunning and alert. Although he pretends to be angry, he has figured out the military deployment of this place along the way.

clear.

As soon as he came out of the city, he rode up to Li Guanyi and galloped all the way to Li Guanyi. He told Li Guanyi what had just happened and said: "The city-states in the Western Regions fought on their own. Tuyuhun was destroyed, and Dangxiang State failed to maintain its rule. As a result,

The rules here are lax and even worse than when I was here."

"At that time, Tuyuhun still had the royal seal in his hand."

"Although Tuyuhun's cavalry is not as good as the top three equipments of Yechi, Human, and Tiefutu, they can still be regarded as a first-line team. The king's orders can still be transmitted to all directions. Unlike today, at this moment, the Western Region is like a complete

The world is in turmoil."

Changsun Wuchuan said:

"Because this matter involves so much, the general does not dare to make a decision and immediately comes out to inform the prince."

Lei Laomeng grinned: "The forces and nobles in the Western Region are so rude."

Batur barely understood and said: "It's been like this for the past two years. The former King Tuyuhun is still there. Although there are often all kinds of strange orders, everyone will at least abide by Tuyuhun's laws."

"The law is not very good either."

"But at least it's better than what it is now."

Fan Qing was silent, staring at the terrain map he had just drawn.

Li Guanyi was also thinking.

Towns must be captured.

Only with the protection of the city can they compete with the large number of rangers who are already within a hundred miles behind them. Otherwise, even if Li Guanyi and the others can win, the casualties will be extremely heavy.

"But the same goes for siege warfare..."

Siege is definitely the most brutal battlefield.

Only about 2,000 of these people are young men with fighting ability, and most of them are rangers. Their personal bravery is at the level of third-line corps in the Central Plains. It is not easy to lead a group of people to conquer this town.

things.

Li Guanyi was thoughtful and said: "Old Shi?"

Shi Dalin said: "Yes."

Li Guanyi smiled and said: "Give me the medicinal powder you just prepared. Forget it, you can prepare a new one, Cartilage Powder and Mafei Powder. It's best to add some laxatives. There is no need for aphrodisiacs and the like."

Although Shi Dalin didn't understand, he still handed something to Li Guanyi. It was a rather large porcelain vase. Li Guanyi tossed it in his hand and put it on his waist. Fan Qing said: "My lord, you want to..."

Li Guanyi stood on this high point, looked at the town opposite, and raised his eyebrows:

"A strong attack will not succeed, the only way is to outsmart them."

"It's a pity that Mr. Wenhe is not here, otherwise, there must be some strange plot."

"I can only use my own method."

"The scouts of that army are still fifty miles away. At the speed of the army, they will stay outside a certain range to restore their energy to ensure the condition of the raid. At this stage, Fan Qing."

Fan Qing said: "The end will be here."

Li Guan said, "You lead five hundred people on a tour."

"Another thousand people will protect this formation, Gongsun and Wanxiu. The two of you will use chariots, horses and cattle as the outer perimeter to build a basic defense line here. Lei Laomeng will serve as a scout as before."

Gongsun Huaizhi, Pan Wanxiu and Lei Laomeng took the orders.

Fan Qing said: "Where are you, my lord?"

Li Guanyi looked at the town and said, "Me?"

He threw the porcelain bottle in his hand and said with a smile: "I'm going to take this city myself."

"Didn't he want me to go? Then why did I fail to fulfill his wish?"

Changsun Wuchuan knew that it was Xiao Dayin, the lord of this town, who had angered Li Guanyi. Li Guanyi ordered the entire tribe to prepare for defense, and he went to the city himself. Although the rammed earth wall was only one foot high, there was not much more on it.

There were some guards with bows standing.

Yao Guang also accompanied Li Guanyi.

Just like before.

With the assistance of Yao Guang's magic, Li Guan entered the city in a big way. The structure of the town was quite simple and direct, but it also divided functional areas. It was simple and concise, and had many merits.

There are stalls on both sides. Different from the Central Plains, it is a small tent supported by wooden sticks and cloth. A layer of cloth is spread inside, and the fruits tumble to the side, piled up, and then sold.

The money used is still the same as Tuyuhun.

It's just a mixture of big money and small money from various editions over a hundred years ago.

There are also livestock sellers at the gates of towns.

It was not very lively, but felt a bit lifeless. The fruits placed on the ground were all stained with ashes. The fruit seller used a knife to cut out the rotten areas, and threw them on the ground to pile them up. A large number of small fruits appeared.

The bugs emitted a smell similar to fermented fruit wine, mixed with a stench.

As people walked over, insects flew around, and a faint smell of alcohol and stench filled their noses.

Even Qilin, who turned into a long-haired cat and lay on Li Guanyi's shoulder, pinched his nose with two paws and turned to the other side: "Bad fruit."

"Don't eat, don't eat."

Li Guanyi joked: "Hey, you actually have fruit you don't want to eat."

This made the little Qilin grunt.

Li Guanyi suppressed his smile and looked around. There were also many desolate places. About a quarter of the entire town was desolate. It can be imagined that this place was no longer the most prosperous. It was just from various traces.

look.

Over the past year or so, this place has been expanded.

But where will the money come from to expand this place...

Li Guanyi continued to judge and thought thoughtfully: "The eldest lady calls it a village, but the prosperity of this place is not as prosperous as the more prosperous towns in the Central Plains. In the eyes of the eldest lady, maybe it is really just a village.

"

At this moment, people on the road in front of the village retreated, and two monks wearing special clothes came over:

"Amitabha, Amitabha."

"Everyone has committed sins in the past life and suffered in this life. Donate your merits to eliminate all kinds of sins and wipe out all kinds of bitter fruits. You will relieve your worries in this life and receive blessings in the next life. Amitabha, Amitabha..."

There was a burst of Sanskrit chanting. These two monks were not the ones I had seen before. The one in the front was holding a strange iron basin and struck it with a hammer, and there was a lingering sound. The person behind was holding a box.

The numb-eyed people took out small coins and put them in iron basins.

"Monk from the Demon Sect..."

Li Guanyi narrowed his eyes.

The two monks failed to detect Yao Guang's miraculous skills and swaggered past the eyes of Li Guanyi and Yao Guang. Li Guanyi's heart moved slightly and he and Yao Guang chased after them. When they saw these two people, they gathered together.

A whole tin box of big and small coins went into the big mansion in the center.

Li Guan turned around and saw that the entire road was lifeless.

It seems to be even more serious than before.
