After the guards in the shadow left, Mo Yuanji stood alone in front of the only intact table in the room, looking at the place on the map where Jia Yu had just left his finger marks.

"Barbarians...barbarians..."

Mo Yuanji murmured several times, and he was a little difficult to make a decision. After living in the northern border for so long, he knew better than anyone else what would be the tragic result of putting the barbarians in the Great Zhou territory. I guess by then, the four words "destroyed" of living beings may be the best portrayal of the future of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But if the barbarians do not introduce the power and relying on Mo Zizai's ease to defeat the 500,000 family coalition forces, the best result of his 100,000 border troops is probably that he can defend the northern border, and it is hard to say whether he can defend it.

After thinking for a long time in his heart, Mo Yuanji finally made a decision in his heart. He summoned a confidant and said, "After sending someone to Yanling Mountain, get in touch with Wulianghe."

"Contact Urya?"

The confidant was stunned for a moment, but did not question it, but asked, "Prince, what did you say to him?"

"Don't say nothing."

Mo Yuanji shook his head and said, "It's all I need to send someone to find him. If he was a smart person, he would understand what I mean."

"If he is not, there will be no need for contact in the future."

"Here."

Although this confidant didn't know what Mo Yuanji meant, he nodded and turned around to arrange the matter.

After this confidant left, the shadow guard who had been dealing with Jia Yu rushed back, but under his black clothes, blood oozed out, and it looked like he was seriously injured.

"What's going on?"

Mo Yuanji looked at the Shadow Guard and frowned slightly. As a guard who protected him personally, the Shadow Guard's strength was in the soul realm. Now, he can even get hurt if he deals with a Jia Yu who has no cultivation. Isn't that too useless?

"There are masters around Jia Yu."

The Shadow Guard half-kneeled on the ground, with a bitter face and said, "I failed to deal with it. I hope the prince will forgive me."

"There is a master? Where does the master come from around him?"

Mo Yuanji stared at the Shadow Guard with a bad expression. The guards around Jia Yu were all sent by him. If there were masters, how could he not know?

"etc……"

Speaking of this, Mo Yuanji suddenly remembered someone. He looked at the Yingwei and asked, "Is it the old man Bai Changqiu brought over last time? Has he come to Dingzhou?"

Last time, Bai Changqiu came with a guard from the human realm, but when he went back, he said that the two of them were going back together. However, according to the information they controlled, the old man from the human realm separated from Bai Changqiu as soon as he left the city. They did not find out where they went.

Now it seems that this old man is hiding near Dingzhou.

"It's him indeed."

When talking about this person, Yingwei felt that his wound was a little painful. If that person hadn't killed him, that sword would have killed him.

"No wonder..."

Mo Yuanji nodded slightly when he heard this. Some time ago, a servant told him that someone from the worshipper's mansion came to find him, but because he was not here, the person from the worshipper's mansion left after seeing Jia Yu. He thought that the worshipper from the worshipper came to him to tell him that when the celebrity warrior entered the city.

However, this person was sent away by Jia Yu, so he naturally hid it down.

"I underestimate him."

Mo Yuanji sneered, then said, "However, just a warrior in human realm wants to be unscrupulous, which is too much of a disrespectful person."

"Which direction did they run?"

In Dingzhou City, border troops are everywhere, and human warriors cannot exert their strength at all. Not to mention that he is with Jia Yu, even if he is alone, he will never escape from Dingzhou City.

"Go back to the prince, he... didn't leave, and there are a few words to me for me to bring to the prince."

The Shadow Guard, who failed to kill, looked a little ugly when he was regarded as a sound tube, but when he thought of what Jia Yu said at that time, he still honestly acted as a sound tube.

"He said that Sun Qing and Liu Yu had contact with the prince because of his instruction. If he died and the prince wanted to use them to kill Kou Yi, they would never do it."

"He also said...he is just for revenge now. As long as he can achieve his wish, he is willing to deal with it with the prince."

"Ha~ He really thought he would win me."

Mo Yuanji snorted disdainfully. Sun Qing and Liu Yu had long been secretly bent on him. They had already told all the things about them. Now Jia Yu actually thought that these two people were just pretending to defect to him and wanted to use this to threaten him. It was really overestimating his ability.

However, although Mo Yuanji didn't care about Jia Yu's threat, he still stopped summoning people to encircle Jia Yu.

If he wants to cooperate with the barbarians, his subordinates must give him some advice to restrict Wulianghe, and Jia Yu is obviously a very good choice.

Before defeating Mo Zizai, Jia Yu would definitely be a very useful tool, so there is really no need to kill him now.

After pondering for a while, Mo Yuanji slowly spoke, "Okay, I understand this, you go down and recover from the injury."

"Here."

Seeing that Mo Yuanji had no intention of blaming him, Yingwei breathed a sigh of relief and retreated.

...

In Guangling City, the two armies who went to Jieyang and Yecheng had already rushed back and helped the Shenwei Army to place the surrendered soldiers.

In the city mansion, Mo Zizai looked at Xu Boyuan with a slightly complicated look. This guy was too fierce, less than 10,000 to 150,000, and drove them to a desperate situation like a pig. Whether it was means or courage, it was definitely a certain one. It was really a bit incomparable to be a deputy general under Han Qu before.

"All fifteen thousand soldiers were killed?"

"yes."

Xu Boyuan nodded silently. Although he won this battle, he did not expect any reward. Although the soldiers were enemy troops, they burned all 150,000 people to death. This was a bit too much.

Throughout history, there are not a few generals who have done such a great job in doing things, and the fate of those few people has not been very good later.

After all, this matter was too bad. The historian wrote down the matter with a big pen. Most of them were infamous in later generations. No monarch would bear such a great reputation for a general, so this reputation could only be borne by him. So even if he wins a battle, the best result is to not rise or fall.

Fortunately, Mo Zizai, who is in charge of the matter, does not follow any rules, so he will probably not be punished for this matter.

But then again, if it weren't for Mo Zizai, Xu Boyuan would have chosen to use such extreme means even if he was defeated in the war.

However, Xu Boyuan did not regret this. He had seen what the soldiers did with his own eyes. They were just a group of disasters. If they could not be killed, if they were allowed to escape back, they would harm the people around them. Therefore, even if they were punished, Xu Boyuan would admit this.

"You're so cruel."

Mo Zizai shook his head helplessly, but because Yang Yanzhang had told him about this before, he also understood the situation, so he had no intention of blaming Xu Boyuan.

"Well, that's it."

After pondering for a while, Mo Zizai said, "Don't worry about this, just push me to the head. Go back and submit memorials to the court, saying that it was the order given by the king to let you do this."

Mo Zizai may not be a good emperor, but he is definitely a good boss. He is extremely skilled in taking the blame for his subordinates.

Anyway, he didn't care about the infamous reputation of later generations. As for the remaining old masters in the court who were unchanging in the past, if Xu Boyuan did this, they might point fingers at Xu Boyuan, and even scold him with books. But after Mo Zizai took this matter down, you let them point fingers at Mo Zizai and try to twist their heads off.

To be honest, Xu Boyuan was very moved when he heard Mo Zizai say this. There were not many monarchs who could be such a monarch for his generals in ancient times, so he immediately spoke: "This is the idea of ​​the last general, and the consequences have also been considered. The prince does not need to be like this..."

"Okay, I have the final say in this matter."

Mo Zizai waved his hand and said, "This matter has been settled. Apart from this matter, you can submit memorials as much as you want. I will also ask for memorials for you."

"But if you give me a reward, you have to wait until you return to the court. How can you get your titles and get Weiyi to decide. I am not good at this, so don't count on me."

"Thank you, Prince."

Seeing that Mo Zizai was not polite to him, but directly gave him this moment, Xu Boyuan couldn't help but give a deep courtesy, "In the future, the prince will be destined to be ruthless, and he will do whatever he wants!"

"Okay, don't be so polite."

Mo Zizai didn't think there was anything. He asked these people to go to war. Now that he won, he would naturally resist these messy things. Anyway, he was not afraid of these people rebelling, so it didn't matter.

"You guys go and have some rest first, and then go back if you have any problems..."

Before Mo Zizai could finish his words, Yang Yanzhang suddenly rushed over. He spoke to Mo Zizai with a somewhat ugly expression: "Prince, it's not good, Zheng State has used troops to our Great Zhou."

"Zheng Kingdom?"

Mo Zizai was shocked when he heard this and asked quickly: "Is the East Realm lost? What happened to Mr. Zhang?"

"That's not."

Seeing Mo Zizai's reaction, Yang Yanzhang knew that he had misunderstood and quickly explained: "It was Xiao Yan's army who brought tens of thousands of troops to cross the Wanling Mountains and appeared in the weak place of our Great Zhou."

"I don't know the specific situation yet, but the news from the East Realm said that Yanyang County has been captured."

Speaking of this, Yang Yanzhang couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, Mo Zizai gave Zhang Yuan the autonomy in the East before, asking him to copy all the aristocratic families and merchants and hoard enough military rations. Otherwise, if the tens of thousands of troops appearing behind the East, if Zhang Yuan's food and grass are cut off and attacked from front and back, the East would probably be in danger.

"Is Yanyang County captured?"

Mo Zizai felt a little incredible when he heard this. At that time, my son was worried about the problem of crossing the Wanling Mountains, so he arranged troops in Yanyang County behind the Wanling Mountains. Although the strength of those soldiers was average, most of the cities on Yanyang County were built very high against the mountain, which was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Not to mention that there are only tens of thousands of troops, even if it is ten times more, it is impossible to capture the entire Yanyang County in a short period of time.

"Are their soldiers as strong as the soldiers of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry? Not so?"

Although Mo Zizai felt that his idea was a bit impossible, he did not take it too lightly. He spoke to Yang Yanzhang and ordered: "Send someone to check immediately what happened to Yanyang County."

"Then these surrendered soldiers have no time to take care of them for the time being. They directly draw out some of the strong ones and let them follow the Shenwei army to drive towards Yanyang County. As for the rest, if they are honest, they will be sent to mine and repair roads. If they are not honest, they will directly kill them on the spot!"

"Here!"

Yang Yanzhang knew that the situation was urgent now, so he didn't say much. After responding, he went out to arrange specific things directly.

After he left, Mo Zizai looked at Xu Boyuan and said, "General Xu, I want to hand over a task to you, I wonder if you are willing?"

"Your Majesty just speak."

Xu Boyuan bowed without any refusal and bowed and said, "I will go through fire and water until the end, and I will never refuse."
