Chapter 60 Playing a trick

Wei Fufeng's face changed in shock. He drew his spear and was about to escape behind a tree. Unexpectedly, Hu Hu's father beside him yelled, raised his knife and rushed towards the enemy general.

Wei Fufeng didn't have time to feel depressed, and his evasive action subconsciously turned into a panic attack.

Seeing Amber's father running and jumping up without caring about his own life, he slashed the enemy general's face with the saber in his hand. The enemy general was covered in heavy armor, with only his face exposed.

The enemy general's spear rose up and struck at Kohaku's father's sword. He could not risk being attacked in the face and both sides would be injured.

Bang! The long spear accurately hit the saber that was slashing down, and the saber broke. Amber's father was thrown back by the shock.

Changsha was also shaken by the force of the saber, and the enemy general's figure was stagnated.

Suddenly, like a poisonous snake spitting a message, a spear passed by the right side of Amber's father, and a long shadow pointed directly at the enemy general's door.

Poof! The tip of the spear pierced the enemy general's left eye viciously, and the impact made the enemy general scream and stagger down.

The staggering enemy general steadied his body with his long arms, blood spurting from his face like a fierce spirit, and he was about to pounce forward with tenacious vitality.

Five sword and shield soldiers on the left and right rushed in with sabers to kill. The enemy general was exhausted and died tragically under the sword.

Wei Fufeng reached out and grabbed Hu Hu's father, who was unsteady. He held the spear diagonally in his right hand with a calm expression.

Hu Hu's father turned to look at Wei Fufeng, with shock and surprise in his eyes.

After helping Hu Hu's father, Wei Fufeng immediately put his gun on the ground again, grabbed the crossbow, loaded the arrow, and took aim.

Stretch! The crossbow arrow flew out, accurately hitting an enemy soldier and piercing his chest.

At this time, the other crossbowmen also loaded their arrows again, and the crossbows became powerful for a while, assisting the sword and shield soldiers to destroy all the enemy troops.

This battle was not long, but it was a frightening and cruel one. At least it made Wei Fufeng face the crisis of the battle.

After casually handing the spear to Hu Hu's father, Wei Fufeng walked over and ordered the battlefield to be cleaned, especially the enemy's armor and weapons.

The crossbowmen simply took off their armor and put it on, but Amber's father took off the enemy general's heavy armor and put it on. He was tall and looked very powerful after wearing the armor.

The battle outside the mountains also ended, and more than 200 Hedong cavalry were killed.

Sun Kui ordered his subordinates to gather more than 20 good horses and arm his army with all military weapons. The horses that could not be used were handed over to the army for disposal.

Wei Fufeng sent people to see Sun Kui. After contact and communication, Fufeng's army walked out of the mountains.

Wei Fufeng walked up to Sun Kui, saluted and said respectfully: "Envoy Fufeng pays homage to the deputy envoy."

"Wei Shijun is so polite." Sun Kui responded happily, feeling very grateful to Wei Fufeng for his rescue and directly respecting Wei Fufeng's duties.

Wei Fufeng listened to his subordinates' report on Sun Kui's origins and saw that Sun Kui was wearing a red official robe. He was in his fifties, with regular features and a dignified bearing. He had an official demeanor of not being angry and showing off.

Wei Fufeng glanced at it, turned around and looked elsewhere, and said calmly: "Please, Mr. Deputy Envoy, keep the arrows shot by Fufeng's army."

"Oh, I should." Sun Kui nodded in agreement, turned around and gave instructions, and one of his subordinates followed the order.

Wei Fufeng saluted and thanked him, and then said: "Sir, deputy envoy, can you please take a moment to speak."

Sun Kui nodded and walked to a deserted place with Wei Fufeng to talk.

Wei Fufeng said bluntly: "Sir, are you wondering why the Fufeng Army was able to ambush the Hedong Cavalry?"

"It should be exploration

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

We know the movements of the Hedong Army." Sun Kui replied.

"Your Majesty is right. The Fufeng Army found out about the movements of the Hedong Army, so it laid an ambush in Shilou Mountain for a long time." Wei Fufeng whispered.

Sun Kui nodded and said: "Wei Shijun knows soldiers who are good at fighting."

"I don't know that the soldiers are good at fighting. I just figured out that the imperial army would reinforce Shizhou. The Hedong Army would be ambushed on the way, so they couldn't capture the city first," Wei Fufeng said.

Sun Kui nodded in approval, and Wei Fufeng added: "After I found out about the movements of the Hedong Army, I didn't dare to tell anyone, because the generals of the imperial army have many friends of the Hedong Army."

Sun Kui's expression changed slightly and he said, "Please be careful what you say, Commander Wei."

Wei Fufeng said calmly: "There are rebellious generals hidden in the army, which is a very dangerous hidden danger. Just like today's battle, as soon as the enemy appeared, your army's military strength collapsed. If the general did not flee, his subordinates would be able to look out for the enemy."

follow."

Sun Kui frowned. He had survived after a calamity. Everything that happened before could be said to be thrilling, but the law did not punish everyone, so he could not hold the generals who fled away to blame.

"Sir Deputy Envoy, why don't we play a trick and let the hidden dangers of the generals be exposed themselves?" Wei Fufeng said.

"Oh, Sir Wei, please tell me." Sun Kui responded. Of course he did not want to lead an out-of-control army.

"Your Excellency, go back and tell your subordinates that the Fufeng Army envoy captured a military attaché of the Hedong Army. The military attache cursed that he had been framed by thieves. He angrily revealed the power of the imperial court and that there were military attaches who colluded with the Hedong Army.

When the news spreads, your Excellency summons the generals from all the battalions to see you. Those who have evil intentions in their hearts may run away. If they don't escape, there will be no criticism against you." Wei Fufeng came up with an idea. He didn't want to be with the hidden people.

When enemies work together, it is impossible to guard against them.

Sun Kui nodded and said, "Yes."

...

After Sun Kui returned, he ordered to camp and rest. The Fufeng Army was adjacent to Sun Kui's central camp.

At noon, Sun Kui sent a message to the generals of each battalion to come and see him. The imperial military strength was 500 soldiers per battalion, and the leaders of the battalions were soldiers and horse envoys, who recorded affairs and joined the army and patrol officers.

Not long after the order was sent, the soldiers of three battalions made strange movements and moved away from the central military camp.

Sun Kui was already sitting in the car prepared. Hearing the whistle report, he personally went out of camp with dozens of subordinates to chase after him.

"Soldiers, I have heard that Song Hu has rebelled and defected to the bandits from Hedong. You are supported by the imperial court. Are you going to leave your homeland and become slaves of the Shatuo people?" Sun Kui leaned out of the car and shouted loudly that he could not ride a horse.

The soldiers who were setting off were immediately stunned, and they all stopped to look at the leading soldiers and horses.

When the military envoy Song Hu saw the deputy envoy coming to summon him, he was so frightened that he did not dare to stay. He ordered his subordinates to follow him and drove away on horseback, which was a sign of rebellion.

In fact, Song Hu gritted his teeth and refused to leave, and Sun Kui had no choice but to do so.

As soon as Song Hu ran away, only five of his subordinates followed him.

Sun Kui immediately shouted to pardon the remaining soldiers, and then rushed to another camp to set off.

The other two battalions were adjacent to Song Hu Camp, and before Sun Kui arrived, the soldiers and horsemen of those two battalions had already fled with a small number of close followers.

Three battalions of officers were left behind, and Sun Kui exercised his authority to recruit deputy envoys. He transferred the officers of the three battalions to join the army and inspectors, exchanged them with the generals of other battalions, and promoted three more officers to join the army and become soldiers.

Horse messenger.

After a lot of busy work, the adjustment of military strength was completed, and the generals of each battalion gathered in the central military camp.

Sun Kui introduced Wei Fufeng to the generals and even told them that the strategy to eliminate the traitor was Wei Shijun.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

It turned out that Wei Shijun did not capture the generals of the Hedong Army at all.

Wei Fufeng was speechless. He didn't know if Sun Kui was selfless and refused to take credit, or if he had an ulterior motive. Anyway, he felt uncomfortable inside. People who are good at tricks often make people criticize and fear him.

After adjusting the military strength, the army set off, moving much faster this time. Sun Kui promised the soldiers that they would eat horse meat soup when they arrived in Shizhou.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the army arrived at Lishi County. Before entering the city, Wei Fufeng had already reached a consensus with Sun Kui that military discipline must be strict and there should be no harm to the army.

When the army entered the city, they immediately ate the food prepared by the troops staying behind in Fufeng. Everyone went to eat and went to sleep after eating. However, no chaos occurred. The military generally believed that Wei Shijun was really good.

...

Wei Fufeng returned to his residence. He was very tired from running around outside. He just wanted to take a bath and eat and take a long nap. He flushed his body with water from the well, changed into a robe and went to eat.

He entered the room and sat down with Amber's father, and the other guards were sent away to rest.

While eating, Amber's father suddenly said in a low voice: "It turns out that your Excellency is a highly skilled martial artist."

Wei Fufeng was startled, feeling that Hu Hu's father was really tolerant, so he asked when the two of them were alone. He said gently: "I know martial arts, but knowing martial arts doesn't necessarily mean I can save my life."

"The master shoots his gun like lightning, and the subordinates feel inferior." Amber's father whispered.

"It's not important that I know martial arts. What's important is that I can sleep peacefully. With you protecting me, I can sleep soundly. If it were anyone else, I might have half-opened my eyes." Wei Fufeng whispered.

Amber's father was slightly startled, thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I understand, and I will keep watch for you."

Wei Fufeng smiled and continued eating.

...

With the imperial army stationed in Lishi County, Wei Fufeng was ready to withdraw, and went to see Sun Kui early the next morning. On the pretext of capturing other counties, Lishi County was handed over to Sun Kui.

However, Sun Kui said there was no rush. He said that the adjusted military strength required rectification of military discipline, and asked Fufeng's army to stay for a few days as a deterrent to suppress the unstable military strength and harm the people. Wei Fufeng had no choice but to agree.

After talking about business, Sun Kui turned to ask: "Is Wei Shijun born in Chang'an?"

"Yes, I am from the branch of Webster's family." Wei Fufeng replied.

"Oh, so Wei Shijun and Wei Xiangye are related?" Sun Kui said suddenly.

Faced with Sun Kui's inquiry, Wei Fufeng said frankly: "Master Wei is my uncle, but the Fufeng Army has nothing to do with my uncle."

"Oh, I heard that Wei Shijun is from southern Sichuan, how could he have nothing to do with Prime Minister Wei who rebelled against Xichuan?" Sun Kui asked.

"My uncle was the Jiedushi of Xichuan, and the Jiedushi of Southern Sichuan was another Wei family. The two are not related. I once went to Sichuan to join my uncle, and on the way I met an uncle who was a descendant of Wei Gao, so I became the Sichuan Southern

After the Jiedu Envoy stayed, he later paid tribute to His Majesty the Emperor on the orders of his uncle, and was granted the title of Marquis of Fufeng and the Jiedu Envoy of Central Guizhou." Wei Fufeng explained.

"It is said that the Jiedu Envoy of Southern Sichuan was recommended by the Privy Council. Wei Shijun's uncle is related to Yang Fugong?" Sun Kui asked.

"It has nothing to do with it. My uncle made a deal with Yang Shouliang and deceived Yang Shouliang to get the appointment of the Southern Sichuan Jiedushi. Then my uncle led his subordinates to seize Luzhou, allowing the Southern Sichuan Jiedu to gain a foothold in Luzhou." Wei Fufeng replied calmly.

"What kind of deal? How could you deceive Yang Shouliang?" Sun Kui continued to ask.

"It's okay not to mention the past." Wei Fufeng calmly refused.
