    Two hundred and twelve invasion

    After calming down, Meng Ju said calmly: "Miss Ouyang, don't make a decision in a hurry and think about it slowly. If you really follow me, you will have to endure a lot of hardships and take great risks, and even have your home raided and beheaded.  It's possible - this isn't to scare you, it's true."

    "Ah!" Ouyang Qingqing covered her mouth lightly and said in surprise: "My lord, you are a high official of the imperial court and a high-ranking official of the government. Who is so bold as to dare to murder you?"

    Meng Ju laughed and stood up: "A high-ranking official in the imperial court? Miss Ouyang, you have been hiding here for a while and have little contact with the outside world. You may not know the details yet. Xiaojiu will explain my matter to you later.  I¡¯ll take my leave now.¡±

    Ouyang Qingqing also stood up in a hurry. She seemed to be in a hurry to confess something, but Meng Ju stopped her: "Don't rush into talking about it now - don't be impulsive about certain things. Think about it clearly before talking. That will be good for everyone. In a few days  I will come see you again. If you haven¡¯t changed your mind by then and still stay here, then¡ª¡ª¡±

    He said nothing more, just nodded vigorously at Ouyang Qingqing and smiled slightly.

    Ouyang Qingqing cried with joy, tears welling up in her eyes: "Sir, I'm waiting for you"

    "The current situation is very chaotic, please take care of yourself."

    Meng Ju said take care and walked out quickly.  After walking out for a long time, he couldn't help but look back and saw the slim figure in the light blue sarong still standing at the door, holding on to the door frame for a long time.

    Meng Ju waved vigorously at her, turned around and strode away, with a touch of joy and warmth in his heart.

    As soon as he returned to the mausoleum office, Meng Ju had not yet settled down on his chair. Military Intelligence Inspector Xu Long had already walked in. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Sir, they are coming! They are coming to kill!"

    Meng Ju was shocked and asked in a deep voice: "Who is coming to kill you!"

    "The border troops have come from Wuchuan! Lord Governor, the Dongling Guards of Yansang County reported to us that starting from the day before yesterday, the border troops entered the country in large numbers from the direction of Wuchuan, and they are advancing towards Yansang County!"

    On the same day, an emergency meeting of mid-level officers was held in the mausoleum office.  When I heard that the Wuchuan border troops had begun to move out, an invisible coldness enveloped the venue, and everyone fell silent.

    This time, Meng Ju did not engage in pseudo-democracy that allowed people to speak freely. He announced his decision directly: "Since the enemy invaders have entered the country, we don't have to be polite. Beixing!"

    Wang Beixing stood up and said: "The governor, the general is here!"

    "You must mobilize your troops and seize Xian Yuba's new brigade outside the city for me! The war is about to start, and we can't allow that villain Xian Yuba to stab us in the back! Is there any problem with this battle?  ?¡±

    Since Leping returned, Meng Ju has ordered an expansion of his troops because of the large number of battle armors captured.  In this expansion of the army, the three main forces of Zhenbiao, Sanya and Heishi have all expanded to have more than 300 battle armored masters, while Xian Yuba's new brigade only has more than 130 battle armors.

    Not to mention the huge disparity in military strength between the two sides, the newly formed brigade has been without food and pay for nearly three months recently because Meng Ju stole the food and grass from the Dongping Governor's Mansion. The soldiers complained, and many soldiers secretly took weapons and sold them to the Dongling Guards.  , some officers even sold their battle armor, and some came to Dongling Guard and offered to provide them with information and act as undercover agents.

    Military discipline is so lax that Xian Yuba doesn¡¯t want to take care of it, but it¡¯s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.  If he was stationed in other places and the garrison ran out of money, he could still ask the merchants and residents around the station to "temporarily lend" or "sponsor" it, but unfortunately there were three divisions of Meng Ju and one of Xiao Heng's stationed in Jing'an City.  Even if Xianyu Ba was given three more courages, he would not dare to reach out and snatch food from Meng Ju's bowl.  Since he couldn't produce money and food to satisfy his subordinates' hunger, Xian Yuba had no choice but to turn a blind eye to his subordinates' messy things.

    If you want military discipline but not morale, if you want morale but not morale, Meng Ju will not be embarrassed if he wants to kill him all the way. But in the past, he was worried about not angering Tuoba Xiong, so he kept holding back and did not make a move, but now that everyone is tearing up  After losing face, Meng Ju naturally no longer needs to be polite to him.

    Wang Beixing saluted: "No problem, Governor! If Xian Yuba dares not to surrender, I will let him be completely destroyed!"

    "Okay, you can mobilize all your troops and take action immediately. You don't have to wait any longer."

    Wang Beixing saluted, turned around and left with murderous intent.

    Meng Ju then turned to face the officers: "Everyone knows what happened. Tuoba Xiong, the governor of Northern Xinjiang, defied the imperial law and invaded our Dongping territory without any reason! Since I have been ordered by the imperial court to guard Dongping and protect the territory and the people, it is my duty to  I absolutely cannot allow Tuoba Xiong to be so arrogant. I have made up my mind, I will not offend others unless they offend me, and I will offend them if they offend me!"

    The officers looked at each other, their eyesGods are quite weird.  As soon as Tuoba Xiong's troops entered the country, Governor Meng immediately attacked Xian Yuba.  The town governor showed such an uncompromising attitude that it made it difficult for everyone to say a lot of things.

    Next, Meng Ju simply assigned tasks to his subordinates:

    Xu Long of the Military Intelligence Department is responsible for collecting intelligence, continuing to pay attention to the movements of the border troops, and reporting three times every morning, noon and evening;

    In order to maintain wartime order, the curfew in Jing'an City was put under the specific responsibility of Lan Zheng, the general manager of the Jing'an Department of Tomb Guards. In fact, it didn't matter whether there was a curfew or not. There were only a few people on the streets now. When news of the massive invasion by the border troops spread,  When I came out, I was afraid that not even a ghost could be seen;

    Lu Liulou¡¯s standard-bearing division drove out of the city to assist the black room division in disarming Xian Yuba¡¯s new brigade;

    Meng Ju originally wanted Lv Liulou to take charge of the dental surgeon as well, because the dental surgeon went to Chicheng before returning to Chicheng. Meng Ju originally wanted Lu Liulou to take charge of the dental surgeon.  The war would be even more troublesome, and he was afraid that he would not be able to take care of it and cause trouble. For the dental surgeon, it would be better for you to choose someone else.

    Being in charge of a battle armor master is certainly very busy, but it is not necessarily true that he is too busy to handle it.

    Everyone here understands that Lu Liulou is just an excuse. He wants to avoid suspicion and does not want to take too much power and destroy the balance in the military.

    Understanding Lu Liulou¡¯s intentions, Meng Ju did not embarrass him. He asked: ¡°Since Mr. Lu has no time to take care of it, which inspector is willing to come out and act on his behalf?¡±

    He waited for a long time, but no one agreed.  The inspectors all said that Inspector Meng might as well take charge of it himself. If anyone else had replaced him, he probably wouldn't be able to overwhelm the arrogant and powerful men of the Tooth Master.

    Meng Ju was stunned. Are dentists usually very arrogant?

    Meng Ju said calmly: "Okay, since everyone said so, I will take care of it for the time being. Okay, if nothing happens, everyone can disperse. Go back to your posts, from now on, there will be a war.  "

    After dismissing everyone, Meng Ju just returned to the study. Before he could take a breath, Inspector Ouyang Hui of the Independent Commission Against Corruption came to the door.  He hesitated for a long time, just talking nonsense. Meng Ju listened impatiently: "Inspector Ouyang, do you have something to do with me? Just tell me what you have to say, no need to beat around the bush."

    Ouyang Hui mustered up his courage: "If the governor said this, you would be arrogant for your humble position. Just now there are so many people and you humble your position, so it's hard to say it directly, but you have to think twice about this matter! Over there with the border army, just fighting  We only have 4,000 armors, and we don¡¯t even have half of what they have. If we start a big fight like this, even if you, Lord Governor, are very brave, after all, there is a huge disparity in military strength, and we can¡¯t take advantage!¡±

    Meng Ju smiled, knowing that Ouyang Hui was speaking tactfully.  It's not just as simple as not being able to take advantage. If a fight really breaks out, the Dongping Lingwei will face the entire army being annihilated, and all the officers will die without burial.

    "Inspector Ouyang, you don't have to worry too much. If there is a fight, we will certainly suffer heavy losses, but the border troops will also feel uncomfortable."

    Seeing that the governor was so ignorant, Ouyang Hui wanted to slap him twice and call him "confused". He begged bitterly: "Sir, you can't look at things like this! We are outnumbered and the enemy is outnumbered. Even if you, the governor, try again  Yongwu, we can at most suffer similar losses in the fight, right? But if we lose a thousand or hundreds of Doukai, the border army is only wounded in flesh and blood, but we have to completely lose our combat effectiveness. Without the support of Doukai soldiers and horses,  , what can we do to gain a foothold in northern Xinjiang?"

    "Inspector Ouyang, what you said makes sense. But now, the border troops are coming. If we don't resist, are we waiting to die? Inspector Ouyang, what can you do?"

    Ouyang Hui hesitated for a long time, and finally said hesitantly: "Lord Governor, my humble post is that I joined the Lao Ling Guard during the Zhengping period. I have served in the Dong Ling Guard for almost twenty years, and I have served four town governors.  . To the Dongling Guards, I have always been loyal to my humble position, and some of my suggestions to humble my position are entirely out of public interest I hope you don¡¯t have any thoughts."

    Meng Ju was surprised: "Of course, I have never doubted your loyalty to Inspector Ouyang."

    Ouyang Hui breathed a sigh of relief, but his face turned red: "I have a relative in my humble positiona distant cousin. He is the counselor and staff of the Six Towns Dudu Mansion. It is said that he can also talk to Marshal Tuoba Xiong.  . If your Excellency agrees, I would like to write a letter to my cousin. Maybe maybe I can talk to the other side through my cousin? If the matter can be resolved without fighting,  That¡¯s naturally the best.¡±

    Meng Ju stared at Ouyang Hui blankly, making him feel uncomfortable: "Sir, can you say something?"

    Suddenly, Meng Ju burst out laughing wildly, and he patted Ouyang Hui on the shoulder: "Inspector Ouyang, I just realized today that you are so funny - uh, I mean you are soWhat a joke!

    Tuoba Xiong mobilized troops from four provinces and exhausted all the troops in northern Xinjiang. What a determination this is!  You just hope that you can make him withdraw his troops through peace talks - well, forget it, I won't say anything anymore.  Inspector Ouyang, you have to remember this sentence: 'Only those who can fight can make peace.  ¡¯ If we fight to the death, the frontier army can afford it, but Tuoba Xiong cannot afford it - it¡¯s okay, it¡¯s okay, I know you don¡¯t understand it now, but you will understand it in the future.  "

    Ouyang Hui was confused, but Meng Ju didn't say much to him and drove him away: "It's okay, Inspector Ouyang, just relax, we are determined to be okay."
