Wei Feng smiled disapprovingly: "Liu Xingnan, you are too careful. If your father comes here, he will definitely give Feng Sufu the opportunity to ask for help like me, so as not to be more troublesome in the future!"

"Hmph!" Liu Xingnan snorted coldly: "Just be arrogant. Haven't you heard that arrogance will be defeated?"

Wei Feng thrust his waist and said proudly: "Before me, the strength of the troops in the world was Wei, and Tuoba Yi was a famous general among the Wei people. But when he met me, not only did he fight in the north, but he was completely destroyed by 170,000 elite troops, but he also lost his life. Could the fish he had pieced together by Yan State be stronger than Tuoba Yi? Even if he made 200,000, I would be afraid of it?

The marching is not about the large number of people. Otherwise, wouldn’t Fu Jian have already sieged Jiangdong with 870,000 troops? The orders are different and his thoughts are different. This is the cause of defeat. The more people, the more opportunities there are to take advantage of it. I want to see who will come from the reinforcements of Yan State and how many people can come!"

Liu Xingnan stopped talking, but just rolled his eyes to Wei Feng.

......

Late that night, several ropes were thrown down at the dark Jicheng. Black shadows climbed down carefully. About 30 people. One of them looked southwest and lowered their voices: "The Jin army is stationed there, be careful, spread, and circling from left to right. As long as the wheat fields are burned, it will be a great achievement. General Feng will be rewarded with great rewards!"

"Abide by the order!" A low voice of promise sounded one after another.

The leader waved his hand, and the shadows scattered into the night.

These people were all wearing black clothes, carrying a small black package on their backs, which contained dozens of tinder oil. The tinder oil was put into a leather bag and unbuttoned the buckle at the mouth of the bag. What was extremely convenient and more advanced was that they also had fire notes!

The specific age of fire slicing is no longer verified, but it must have appeared with the emergence of paper. It was a very rare item at that time. Ordinary people could not afford it. It was generally limited to powerful landlords, wealthy merchants, major gentry and imperial families. Most people still use two dry wood branches to make fire, and then use flints or iron sheets. This way, the fire is long and takes one to two minutes. In terms of burning wood and raising fire, Liu Xingnan and Liu Jiao's aunt and nephew are familiar with each other.

The fire fold is to cut the rough earth paper into a length slightly longer than the bamboo tube and then roll it up. The tightness is moderate, and the thickness is equivalent to the inside of the bamboo tube. It is inserted into the bamboo tube and ignite it and then blow it out. Although there is no flame at this time, there are red highlights burning faintly, as if the remaining fire in the ashes can remain undyed for a long time, and finally plug it with a ventilation plug.

When using it, unplug the plug and it will rekindle after blowing. Of course, blowing also requires multiple practices to master the skills. It requires sudden, short, powerful, and large air supply!

The shadows were moving forward in the dark night. Although it was a plain, it was almost difficult to find. Unless a man was arranged in advance, Zhang Ning used a stupid method of waiting for the rabbit. In addition to the wheat field where the army was stationed, a man was arranged every two hundred steps behind and on the left. He was lurking under the earth ridge of the wheat field.

"Huh?" An ambushed guard suddenly moved his heart, and gradually there was a slight sound of footsteps in the distance, and he stopped on his head. This made him secretly raise his eyes and look up. Two sneaky men in black seemed to be trying to take out something from their backs. So he suddenly burst out, and he knocked one out with a palm knife, then twisted his waist while the second person had not yet reacted, kicked him in the temple!

The temple is a fatal acupoint in the human body. Being hit hard will cause life worries, but this guard obviously grasped the measure and was just knocked out, not to die.

After knocking down the two of them, a few muffled noises came from a distance, and even a flash of fire, followed by a scream. It was obvious that the distance was far away. The Yan Man was shot on the wrist by an arrow when he ignited the fire.

The guard smiled knowingly, moved the two prisoners to the ground ridge and continued to lurk. Originally, the thirty Yan people calculated the time and speed of walking, and agreed to ignite the fire at the same time, but the sudden abnormal movement made the rest realize that the operation failed.

The leader shouted: "The people of Jin were prepared for a long time and retreat!"

In the night sky, several heart-wrenching night owls suddenly sounded. This was the retreat signal planned by the Yan people, but this sound also made the ambush guards no longer care about it. They shouted and rushed forward, and chased and killed the pitiful twenty people with hundreds of people!

Although the Yan people were all wearing black clothes, they were useless to the guards. Unless they did not move, they exposed their bodies as soon as they moved. In the end, in addition to the lucky escape, nearly thirty people were caught in front of Wei Feng.

Wei Feng sat on the top, with a bunch of prisoners on the ground, and his face was a little uneasy. Several serious injuries were bandaged by the female Yasha.

After a brief glance, Wei Feng suddenly asked, "Anyone of you has been captured by me after following Murong Xi?"

Wei Feng just asked casually, but to his surprise, more than ten people looked at each other, and one of them hesitated: "The general was once respected by the general for not killing him. This time... this time he fell into the hands of the general, and he was really shameless."

"Oh?" Wei Feng said in surprise: "It seems that he is still an old friend. Do you hold any position in Feng Sufu's army? Are they all from the Murong family? How many people in the Yan State surname Murong?"

The man bowed: "Return to General, the Murong family is a clan name. In fact, although many civilians and small and medium-sized tribes in the clan are both Xianbei, most of them do not have Murong's surnames. Instead, they have changed surnames passed down from ancestors, such as Fei, He Ruo, Qiu, Ding, etc.

The reason why the clan name is Murong is because the Murong family is the strongest branch in the tribe. This is similar to the Tuoba family. The millions of Tuoba family are truly qualified to take Tuoba as their surname. Oh~~ The sin is far from it. As far as the sin is concerned, after the Heavenly King Dai Zen, the Murong family was almost killed. Now Yan State no longer has the surname Murong. Even if there are, they are all adults with relatively distant bloodlines. As for us, they were selected by General Feng as scouts because of their good skills and assigned to burn... and burn the wheat fields outside the city."

Wei Feng nodded in understanding. Just as Qiu Nini, Empress Dowager Ding and others claimed to be from the Murong clan in the Xianbei region, they actually belonged to the Murong clan. For example, Changsun Fei and Mu Chong of Wei State were the same. They were born into the affiliated clan of the Tuoba clan, especially the Qiu Muling clan of Mu Chong, who changed his surname to Mu.

Wei Feng pondered again: "What's your name? Which tribes do you all come from?"

The man replied honestly: "Return to the general, the criminal general is Zhang Jian. He only knows that he is from the Murong tribe of the Xianbei province, but he can't figure out the origin of the surname and which clan is the specific clan. As for the others, they are Dingling people, four of them are Kumoxi people, and the eight are remnants of Jin people, and he is a Khitan person, and the rest belong to the Murong tribe."

With Zhang Jian's vigorous introduction, Wei Feng roughly understood the racial situation among these people and began to reflect on his own ethnic policies. Judging from these prisoners, they did not seem to have a strong sense of belonging to their own race. So, can they be naturalized as their own people?

Of course, the races that have already formed a blood hatred for the Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje, Tuoba tribes, etc. cannot be lenient. Since they have started killing, they can simply kill them all. For example, the affiliated tribes in the Murong tribe, Ding Ling and Khitan can give them a chance, but only for civilians, the nobles and the heads must be killed!

Wei Feng had the intention of giving it a try, so his face darkened and he asked, "Zhang Jian, are you willing to surrender to me?"

Nearly thirty people were shocked and looked at Zhang Jian together. Without further ado, Zhang Jian quickly led everyone to kneel down on the ground and shouted: "General is benevolent and righteous, and we will not kill him twice. We are willing to return to the general and serve the general!"

"Okay!" Wei Feng's face showed a smile: "Let's get up, from today on, we will be our own people. Come on, you are all frightened. Zhang Ning, I will serve as a drink for me to suppress their shock!"

"Thank you, General!" After nearly thirty scouts who surrendered, they were taken out by Zhang Ning.

......

From Ji to Pingcheng for about 800 miles, Feng Hong set out at noon on April 27, whipping all the way, and arrived at Pingcheng on the evening of April 29. After reports, he was temporarily sent to the inn for close surveillance, but the next day he received news that he was allowed to attend the Wei Dynasty meeting on the first day of May and presented Feng Sufu's letter, which made Feng Hong's heart full of expectations.

Pingcheng has begun to have the capital city after the construction of Tuoba Gui in the past ten years. The city circumference is 32 miles long and is completely built according to the standards of Chang'an and Luoyang. This is Guocheng. In Guocheng, the imperial city is the north and the south is the capital city with a 20 miles around the city. Although it is only a beginning, it has already been inhabited. The capital is composed of lifangs, and the scholars and common people are separated and do not allow mixed residences. Each has its own place. This is the beginning of the Lifang system in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Early in the morning of the first day of May, Feng Hong was led by the guards to rush towards the imperial city. When he saw it, it was depressing. Although many places had traces of planning, no one worked. The stones that had been polished until halfway, the walls that had just been built, and the abandoned tools were everywhere along the way.

Feng Hong understood that the root cause was the loss of a large number of elite troops in Wei State, and forced Tuoba Gui to urgently recruit civilians, craftsmen and other young men to join the army, resulting in insufficient manpower in construction and temporarily stagnant in the construction of Pingcheng.

This made Feng Hong feel a little confident in persuading Tuoba Gui, but he also knew that Tuoba Gui was moody, so he was always thinking about his words secretly.

Not long after, Feng Hong was led into the imperial city of Wei. After waiting for nearly half an hour, a sharp duck voice suddenly sounded like a relay in the distance: "The envoy of Xuanyan State will meet you!"

Feng Hong quickly calmed down and stalked towards Tai Chi Hall.
