Devil’s Advent

The Tianduan Mountains are very long. It stretches almost seven or eight tenths of the northern part of the Jin Kingdom. At the same time, it is also very large, with layers of mountains overlapping each other. It doesn't feel too steep and steep, but instead presents a feeling similar to the East China Sea. vast.

The army marched for a day, and under the command of Xiong Lie, the guide, camped on a flat place in a mountain depression.

Of the three settlements that were to be raided on this trip, the nearest one was only more than 20 miles away on the mountain road. It was a village with a population of several thousand, and the number of men who could fight was estimated to be nearly 2,000.

In the military tent, Zheng Fan gnawed on the roasted pheasant leg.

When the army enters the mountain, those who are capable will naturally hunt for it. Even if the army has enough food, it is good to have a tooth-fighting sacrifice.

Both the barbarian soldiers and the Jin soldiers were very good at hunting. After setting up the camp, they all scattered out, but they didn't know how much prey they would waste, and when they came back, they all rushed to sacrifice it to Zheng Fan.

The blind man sat opposite Zheng Fan, gnawed on the chicken wings, and said at the same time:

"My lord, in fact, this savage is divided into familiar savages and raw savages."

"Does it mean civilized and uncivilized?" Zheng Fan asked.

"The Lord is wise, that's what it means. Anyone who has accepted the influence of Jin's civilization and has traded with Jin, and some people in the settlement can speak Xia language, these are called familiar savages.

The three settlements that Xiong Lie hooked up with before, that is, the three settlements we are going to conquer this time, belong to the settlements of familiar savages.

They are basically located on the outskirts of the Tianduan Mountains, close to the land of the Three Jins. Because they understand the rules, both the Helian family and the Situ family will be lenient to these familiar savages. If you pass them, you can treat them as the Jinmin settlements under your command.

These familiar savage settlements, relying on business relations, have a better life in terms of food and ironware than the relatives of the wild savages in the mountains and in the north of the Tianduan Mountains, so they often take advantage of this advantage to go Annexation and capture of wild savages.

Part of it is to replenish its own population, and at the same time, it will also carry out human trafficking. There have always been savage slave trade activities in the land of the Three Jins, and the contributions made by the familiar savages are greater than those of the Jin people. "

"It's really extravagant, and it's also human trafficking." Zheng Fan smiled, picked up the handkerchief and began to wipe his hands.

"It's also because the side of the Tianduan Mountains and the side near here are not suitable for agricultural development due to climate reasons, so it is useless to have too many serfs."

"Well, let's keep it. It just so happens that those workshops also need manpower."

The blind man nodded, "Subordinates think so too. In many cases, things like gold, silver, and goods are useless instead."

At this time, a guard outside the door came in and reported:

"My lord, please see the bald patriarch."

"Let him in."

Soon, Bald Hair walked into the tent, knelt down and said:

"The baldness will be passed on to the adults, please greet Mr. Bei."

"Get up, bald-haired patriarch, have you eaten yet?"

"Supper has been used, my lord."

"So, what's the matter?"

"My lord, I saw General Liang quietly leaving the stronghold with more than 3,000 soldiers."

"Huh?" Zheng Fan hesitated.

Bald-haired Chengji immediately lowered his head and said sincerely:

"Please forgive me, my lord. The villain didn't intend to see the direction of the army, but..."

"There is nothing to blame for this, you are a lieutenant colonel in our army, if you are really blind and deaf in the army camp, this is a crime.

Besides, with 3,000 people leaving the village, it would be difficult for the people in the village not to notice. "

"Yes, my lord, I dare to ask, where is General Liang's troops going?"

"It's not very convenient to tell you this." Zheng Fan said.

After hearing the words, the bald man gritted his teeth and said:

"My lord, Xiong Lie is gone too. Could it be that Xiong Lie said that he knew a trail that could sneakily attack the savage village on the opposite mountain?"

"Well, you know quite a lot, guess?"

"Returning to the adults, it's not guessing, but Xiong Lie hinted at the villain last night."

"Hint, imply what?"

"He said that the Yan people are much more domineering than imagined. After compiling the people's book, what does it mean for you to be the patriarch?"

"He was right."

"..." The baldness continued.

The country of Yan is also carrying out a large-scale compilation of civilian records. Originally, more than 50% of the population of the whole country "does not exist".

The population has been concealed by the local powerful clans, which also leads to the fact that sometimes local officials have to sit down and discuss with the local powerful clans first if they want to do something, such as conscripting labor.

And this kind of policy of thoroughly clearing the land and incorporating the population can be said to be the lifeblood of the local tyrants.

"The baldness is inherited."

"The villain is here."

"Don't call yourself a villain in the future, call yourself the last general."

"Yes, the end is here."

"You are a smart person. The smart thing about a smart person is that he knows what is sesame and what is watermelon. I am very pleased that you can take the initiative to report this matter now."

"The bald ones will continue to swear their allegiance to the Lord and Dayan to the death!"

"Um."

"But my lord, there is something wrong with Xiong Lie. He definitely did not lead the way willingly this time. Even when he came back after being bullied by the savage colony, in the eyes of the general, he was also pretending.

Therefore, the general implores your lord to order General Liang to be called back, otherwise there may be an ambush by the savages. Xiong Lie should have colluded with the savages. "

Zheng Fan shook his head and said:

"That's too late."

"That………"

The bald-haired successor didn't know what to say. He thought that his advice would be valued and rewarded, but the attitude of the city guard and the military adviser in front of him seemed extremely ambiguous, as if they didn't take it seriously at all. generally.

Could it be that they really thought that the Yan army was invincible?

At this moment, there was a burst of yelling outside, like the cry of a beast or bird.

Zheng Fan and the blind man looked at each other, smiled together, got up and walked out of the military tent, bald hair followed behind.

The military village is set up on a flat place in the col. Standing here, you can see the torches on the surrounding hillsides. With the shouts, God knows how many savages are ambushing around here.

The savages wanted to attack the camp directly when the Yan army left the camp and the camp was empty.

At this time, there were only the tribe soldiers of the bald tribe and some barbarians in the camp, and there were more than a thousand people in total.

The bald man swallowed his saliva, he didn't expect the savages to attack the army village directly!

"My lord, looking at this battle, there must be at least three settlements of adult savages coming, and the number of them may not be less than five thousand!"

This is still a conservative estimate. The savages are fierce. Although the fighting power and fighting literacy are not comparable to the barbarians, in places where the natural conditions and living conditions are generally harsh, women can often hold up half the sky. The boys and women in the clan can also take Those who can bend a knife and move a bow, if they really fully mobilize and pull out all their foundations, even seven thousand savages can't stop them.

Zheng Fan was very calm, waved his hand, and Zuo Jiqian and Ding Hao in armor walked over.

"See my lord!"

"See Master!"

"The bald-haired patriarch, the clan soldiers under your command will be under the command of the two of them. This village is not badly built. For a while, wildlings won't be able to get in."

"Yes, the general will obey!"

The bald-haired Chengji hesitated for a moment, but he gritted his teeth and agreed, and followed Zuo Jiqian and Ding Hao to rectify the troops. Although he was still a little confused now, he knew that since he was on a ship, he would not easily leave The reason to go to sea again.

Zheng Fan looked at the blind man and said:

"Tell me, should I move a chair over and lie down?"

The blind man added, "I still need a feather fan."

"Well, there must be a pot of good tea. You play the erhu next to me, and I will hum a piece of music."

"After it's over, I have to add one more sentence: the younger generation will defeat the enemy."

Zheng Fan's eyes lit up, and he said, "Be careful."

"However, my lord, arrows don't have eyes."

"Well, you're quite right."

"The Lord is wise."

Those who are black and white are on the front line again, not when they are pretending to be aggressive.

"Yo yo yo!!!!!!!!!"

A long howl sounded,

Immediately afterwards, there were echoes from all the hillsides on all sides.

This should be a military order, and immediately, the torches on the hillside began to move and jump down quickly.

"It's also interesting. There are a lot of savages. In this extreme environment, they seem to have a lot of strength. Why have they been used by Jin soldiers as a machine to kill people for a hundred years?"

Hearing this, the blind man explained with a smile:

"My lord, from the very beginning, the savages are actually the masters of the Three Jins. The Yu family was ordered by Da Xiazi to open up the Three Jins. They forced the savages out of the three Jins, so they had to go to the Tianduan Mountains. Central and the snowfields further north of the Tianduan Mountains.

Although they are now savages, they actually created civilization earlier, but were forcibly cut off by the Jin people.

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, it seems easier for a successful person to make a comeback after a fall, but this is often not the case, in fact, it is even more difficult.

Because your mentality is wrong, and you can no longer be as down-to-earth as you were when you were barefoot. This is almost the case with savages. Each settlement, each headman, whoever counts up is the noble inheritance of which family, and each other Convinced, has been reduced to a mess.

In addition, although they are collectively referred to as savages, they are actually divided into dozens of specific 'nations' internally. It is really easy for the Jin people to clean them up. "

"It turns out that there are still these Taoisms. I thought it was just because of the lack of armor and equipment."

"They're okay, they're equipped with armor and weapons, but there are still some, after all, they are wild people, and it's impossible for them to live a life of bare hair and blood.

But in the current situation, the three settlements are all young and strong, and it is amazing to be able to make such a big battle. These three familiar savage settlements have gradually lost their original tribal atmosphere with the development of trade over the years. In fact, it is more like the three city lords who already know how to watch and help each other. "

"In this, Xiong Lie's lobbying should play a lot of factors, right?"

"That's natural, this Xiong Lie can be considered a character, and he has some brains.

However, my lord, according to my subordinates, the savages dare not really kill the Yan people. They know that the Yan people are not easy to mess with, but the three requirements that the lord made to them earlier can be accepted by the bald, because the bald Fa Chengji had no way out, but the leaders of the savages didn't want this.

They probably want to hurt us once through this encounter. Even if the Lord is captured this time, they will treat us with more courtesy and send some gifts to repair the relationship and continue to do business with each other. "

"You are too rational, I prefer to be more emotional."

"What the lord said is, how can you allow others to sleep peacefully on the side of the couch. The sleepers of Dacheng Kingdom and Dayan Kingdom are too heavy to be moved, but the savages here, don't even try to sleep well."

The most important thing is that the best way of primitive accumulation is not to bury your head in farming, but to plunder. You must have someone around you that you can beat and move, right?

The savages had already rushed down, gathering from all directions towards the camp. Thanks to Zheng Fan's good habit of fighting, this habit stemmed from his lack of confidence in his own military command level.

He doesn't know any fanciful ideas about using troops, but at least he understands the truth that it is better to make fewer mistakes at any time.

He has experience in building the camp. After all, this job is actually not difficult. All that is needed is the word "attachment".

How deep the fence of the village goes into the soil, how many zhangs are dug in front of the village, how many trenches are dug, how many sharp bamboo pieces are buried in the pit, the distance between the gate of the tunnel and the antler obstacles at the back, as long as the general pays attention to it, and patrols over and over again, the soldiers will not be afraid. Being lazy can always be arranged properly.

Right now, the outer defenses of this military village have caused the group of savages a lot of suffering, screams one after another, and the defenders in the military village are shooting arrows and obstructing the outside, which greatly hinders the momentum of the savages.

And the unorganized side of the savages is revealed. Often a breakthrough has been formed in one place, but other directions have not received news to gather here, but continue to gnaw hard bones.

The team that broke through didn't even think about going to meet the friendly army, but plunged in with all their brains, and was quickly beaten back.

This made the effect of the military fortification much better than expected, and it delayed enough time.

"Recycle!"

"receive!"

After the savages began to clear the outer barriers and fences, Zuo Jiqian and Ding Hao ordered the soldiers around them to retreat almost at the same time, directly abandoning the outer perimeter, and turned to the core area centered on Zheng Fan's camp for real blocking.

With the crossbowmen inside and the armored ones outside, the bald-haired successor himself acted as a small soldier to obey the command, and led his subordinates to charge back against the dozens of savages who had just rushed over in one direction, directly chopping up the wave of savages. Back, and then immediately return to the list.

"It's not bad to inherit baldness." Zheng Fan commented.

"He has the qualifications of a hero. Since ancient times, heroes have been hidden in the grass, just to see if there is an east wind to help him take advantage of the situation." The blind man said.

Zheng Fan nodded, weighed the long knife in his hand a few times, looked around, and the savages rushing from several directions were all repelled. Finally, they finally regained their composure, stopped the blood on their heads, and began to encircle them first. , and then besieged in all directions.

The costumes on these savages are very weird, some are no different from Jin people, and some are just wearing animal skins, giving them a mixed feeling of civilization and barbarism.

Under the night, you can still hear the shouts of many leaders restraining your subordinates.

To tell the truth, this is not an army, but a group of people managing a messy flock of sheep.

At this moment, Zheng Fan finally understood why the Jin people were able to form an overwhelming advantage over the savages. There was almost an age gap between the two sides in terms of military level and philosophy.

"My lord, can't help it?" asked the blind man.

"I just got promoted after all, I want to try my luck."

It's like just getting a new toy and can't help but want to show it off to your friends.

"My lord, it's not that my subordinates talk too much. Right now, it's not time for the lord to go into battle, so wait a little longer."

"Wait any longer, and it will become a battle with the wind. Always grab the head with the wind, and if you grab the head for a long time, you don't think it's very interesting."

"My lord, there is something inside."

Zheng Fan smiled, put away the knife,

"Is it?"

………

"Third Master, why did you stop for so long?" Xiong Lie looked back curiously, and found that only Xue San was left behind him, and the rest were gone.

There is a canyon in front of it, through this canyon, you can reach the top of the savage settlement, and you can swoop down and attack from behind.

"Isn't it time to start working? We need to rest our feet." Xue San responded, "The soldiers have driven for a day, and followed them through the mountain nest for so long. They have to take a breath before they have the strength to fight."

Xiong Lie nodded and said, "That's the reason."

Then, Xiong Lie sat on the ground, chewing dry food and drinking water.

Xue San did the same, sitting on the ground eating and drinking.

About half an hour later, Xiong Lie looked at the little Xue San and said with a smile:

"I know your skills."

"Yo, don't you call me the third master?"

"What are you calling, I know you, and you are good at tracking."

Xue San nodded and said:

"I know you know I'm good at tracking."

Xiong Lie froze for a moment, then continued:

"I know you followed me into the mountain the day before yesterday."

Xue San nodded again and said:

"I know you know that I followed you into the mountains the day before yesterday."

"I made you follow on purpose!"

"I also deliberately let you know that I followed you on purpose."

Xiong Lie's mind was a little dizzy,

But still immediately said:

"I know you don't trust me!"

"We let you know that you know we don't trust you."

"Ahem..."

Xiong Lie coughed twice, drank two sips of water, and said with a sneer:

"Don't think that I don't know where the thousands of soldiers and horses that you came up with went. They went to the highlands on both sides of the canyon in batches to ambush, right?"

Xue San looked at the complacent Xiong Lie,

shake your head,

road:

"We know that there is no ambush on the high slopes on both sides of the canyon."

"Then...then you?"

"Oh, they've all gone back. They came out to practice at night, and they've returned to camp a long time ago. They should be arriving at the army camp soon. You and me are the only ones left here."

"..." Xiong Lie.

This is a suit within a suit.

Xue San yawned,

road:

"Boy, play tricks, you have found the wrong person."

Why were the demon kings kneaded in the past?

Because they themselves are too weak, their forces are weak, their personal strength is not enough, and at the same time, the opponent they face is too high-level. Right now, when their own strength is at an advantage, the ability to plan carefully will naturally come in handy.

Suddenly, Xiong Lie raised his left arm, and a dark crossbow appeared.

"Whoosh!"

It's too late, it's too soon,

Xue San fell back, lying on his back on the ground, kicking his legs forward.

Xiong Lie drew out his knife and was about to take advantage of the situation to hack Xue San to death, but his body trembled suddenly, and two short arrows pierced into his abdomen impressively.

Xue San raised his leg,

Facing Xiong Lie, he swayed arrogantly like an aerobics athlete,

road:

"Playing with hidden weapons, you have also found the wrong person."

………

on the valley,

Looking at the camp below where the torches were flickering, and hearing the sound of fighting in his ears, Liang Cheng reached out and stroked his chin.

Beside him stood Xu Youcheng.

"Captain Xu."

"The end is here." Xu Youcheng saluted Liang Cheng.

"I heard that you Jin people have been good at fighting savages for a hundred years. This general has never seen it. I don't know if it is true."

"General, we can't beat the Yan people, but the savages are no problem!"

Liang Cheng heard this and smiled,

Knowing how much humiliation this veteran Qiu Ba endured in his heart when he said such words,

reach out,

Patted Xu Youcheng on the shoulder,

road:

"In the future, I will be able to beat the Yan people."

"What………"

Xu Youcheng was still a little baffled, he didn't know why this general of the Yan people would say such words.

"However, right now, please ask Captain Xu to prove it to me. If you lose even the housekeeping ability of hunting savages, then don't think about the same meals as Brother Yan Jun in the future."

"Please take a good look, General."

Liang Cheng stretched out his hand and patted Fan Li's stomach beside him, because Fan Li was already in armor, and his whole body was covered with iron blocks, and there was a clanging sound when he was struck.

"Blow it."

Fan Li, who had already dozed off while standing, was woken up.

Looking around in a daze,

After yawning,

Picking up the rhino horn that he had been carrying for a day, puffing up his cheeks, and just as he was about to blow it, Liang Cheng added:

"If you dare to blow the charge again, you are not allowed to eat tomorrow."

"Forehead………"

Fan Li smashed his mouth, pointed at the rhinoceros horn:

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

When the horn sounded,

The Yan army, who had already returned to the division to complete the anti-siege, no longer hid, and began to charge.

in,

The Jin people, whose morale had been somewhat sluggish, showed a kind of extraordinary bravery and fearlessness at this time, and they all rushed down screaming, really looking like a pack of wolves descending the mountain.

The soldiers of the original Green Willow Fort appeared to be much more orderly, and everyone formed a small team to maintain the formation and charge downward.

A Ming, who had been standing beside Liang Cheng, laughed and joked:

"Does this count as submissiveness in front of the Yan people, and heavy punches in front of the savages?"

"We have to let them regain some self-confidence and murderous intent, otherwise they will all become soldiers. These savages are really no big deal. They come and go in one go, without leaving any escape route for themselves."

"Okay, you can continue to command here, and I will go down too." A Ming said and prepared to rush down the mountain with the large army.

"What are you going to do?" Liang Cheng asked, "The situation has been settled."

A Ming raised the empty water bag in his hand,

road:

"Go for a drink."
