Devil’s Advent

"In three days, within three days, everyone will gather at the foot of Nanpo Mountain. Everyone must tie a wild man's head around their waist, regardless of whether it is a spy sent by the wild man in the snow field or a wild man hunting nearby, regardless of whether it is a man or a woman. It is always missing, whoever comes back without that head, I will twist his head and hang it on my waist for him!"

"Humble post obeys!"

"Humble post obeys!"

In the mountains, forests and valleys, Xue San knelt in front of fifty subordinates whom he had trained through "cramming duck" training.

Under the leadership of Liang Cheng, the soldiers and horses of Shengle City acted as the pioneers of the Jingnan Army, leading the way ahead, while Xue San's troops were in front of the vanguard army.

Although the route in the mountain has been cleaned by Liang Cheng, and several villages have been pulled out for this, but Tianduan Mountain is vast and the terrain is complicated, God knows if there will be any miscellaneous fish that slip through the net.

At the same time, we also need to be wary of the infiltration and monitoring of the savages on the snowfield. Xue San will not command the army to fight, but he also knows that once the movement of this army is discovered in advance, the savages in the snowfield will gather a soldier on the way out of the mountain for the Yan army. A wave of ambushes came up, and no matter how much the Yan army could fight, it would have to suffer because of it.

"Let's all go."

All of a sudden, everyone disappeared into the nearby forest, leaving only one person with a cloth bag in his hand, which contained hawthorns.

"Where did you get it?" Xue San looked down at this subordinate.

Xue San valued this subordinate very much, not because of his excellent aptitude, but because of this person's name, his surname was Dai, and his first name was Li.

It's Dai Li.

With this name, Xue San couldn't help but pay more attention to him. This Dai Li was also on the road, seeing that the chief officer was a little "favored" to him, so he came here often to flatter and contact him.

"The villain himself, thought he could stay by the adult's side all the time, so he carried it for the adult first. Don't be separated from the adult temporarily, and leave it to the adult."

Xue San stretched out his hand to take the hawthorn, nodded, and said a little softly:

"Be careful."

Dai Li was so moved that he knelt down and kowtowed three times to Xue San before turning around and disappearing into the forest.

He is a native of Jin, a surrendered soldier, and he is considered the worst in Shengle City's military system, so at this time, he will only cherish Xue San's approval at this time.

In fact, Xue San just thinks that it doesn't matter whether others die or not. If this guy dies, it will always give people a very unlucky feeling, which is unlucky.

Moreover, after entering the mountain, he asked his subordinates to change his address. Since the master is the owner of the factory, then he should be called Bureau Chief.

He reached out and grabbed a hawthorn, threw it into his mouth, and chewed slowly,

Xue San unbuttoned his trouser belt facing the stream in front of him,

Comfortably released a wave of urine,

shaking,

I walked a few steps further upstream, bent down and squatted down, and began to wash my hands.

San'er likes Jingnan Hou very much, not because of his relationship with his master, but because he thinks that this person is very particular about fighting.

The Jingnan Army also sent sentry cavalry out to slaughter the savages on the marching road. In Xue San's view, this was the appearance of a serious battle.

If everyone is like that Li Fusheng, who rushes up to do it, then what's the use of waiting for others?

Alas, if you don't know how to use spies to expand your vision, it's a blasphemy to the art of war.

I slapped my face with water,

Xue San did a few more stretching exercises,

Then his figure also melted into the forest in front of him.

………

It is impossible for the army to march too fast, but in order to save time, the rest time during the march was deliberately reduced. Fortunately, it is not a fast attack. For these elite Jingnan Army who have experienced wars, it is not a big deal. How difficult.

After marching for ten days, the Marquis of Jingnan finally ordered to set up camp and rest.

People need to tidy up, and war horses also need to tidy up.

Zheng Fan was sitting in his tent, in front of him, Bald Su was delivering freshly cooked noodles.

I don't know which person has no clue,

It is still bald-haired and inherited. After seeing Siniang, this fellow "determined the holy will", thinking that he understood his own taste,

So during this march, whenever he had the opportunity, he asked Bald Hair Su to serve Zheng Fan.

Now that the army is resting, camping and resting, and they have to rest for three days in a row, it is just suitable for exercise, isn't it?

Zheng Fan brought chili noodles with him, sprinkled some on the noodles, and ate it directly. During the march, Siniang was not by his side, so it was considered good to be able to eat this.

After eating and drinking enough, he took the towel from Bald Hair Su and wiped his face, then Zheng Fan went back to his tent to rest.

The human body actually has a period of fatigue. Zheng Fan and Jingnan Hou went back and forth to the snowfield without stopping, and immediately went out with the army after returning. Even though the body can live in Shanghai, the mental fatigue is already very obvious.

Lying on the blanket in the tent, Zheng Fan only wanted to let himself go.

At this time, Tufasu came in kneeling, Zheng Fan turned his head and looked at her, she also looked at Zheng Fan, and then she began to take off her clothes.

In fact, the baldness is not bad, and the face is indeed a little rough and angular, which is inevitable. In the land of Shengle City, a woman comes out to show her face to eat and eat, and wants to take good care of herself like the ladies of Qianguo. It's not realistic, and she is indeed in good shape.

According to San'er, she has a son and a daughter, and her husband died of illness five years ago.

"Put it on, I'm not in the mood."

Baldness gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and put his clothes back on.

"You can stay with me in the future, just take care of food and drink."

Zheng Fan didn't bother to say too much, Baldy sent her over, the meaning was obvious, even if he didn't want to, there was no need to put this woman in a dilemma.

The atmosphere of this world is like this, even the scholar-bureaucrats like Wen Sutong would send their granddaughters to their daughters every now and then, and you can't ask a local powerful patriarch to have much integrity.

"Wipe my armor and knife, thank you."

"Yes, master."

After saluting to Zheng Fan, Bald Hair Su got up slowly, and took Zheng Fan's armor and knife out to wipe them.

Zheng Fan let out a long sigh of relief and tried to let himself sleep for a while.

To be honest, he is not very keen on this war. If he had to choose, he still hopes to bury his head in farming in Shengle City for a few years. It would be very fulfilling to play the Monopoly game, right? ?

Or, after farming, you can bring your four mothers in casual clothes to accompany the caravan, and go to Jiangnan of Qianguo to have a look around, to see temples, to see Taoist temples, to see how those literati still fan in the winter Dressed up.

Even, you can go to a sect to learn something, or go to Yanjing to find a magician fighting qi or something, and see if you can also practice magic and martial arts.

In this world, there are still too many places that I have not explored or experienced. As a result, I can only continue to lie in a damp tent in a daze.

Zheng Fan took a deep breath and said with emotion:

Fallen, fallen;

Once I had a city and some capital in my hand, I started thinking about living a life of petty bourgeoisie.

Must not, must not......

After this sleep, it was dawn directly, and after such a catch-up sleep, the energy and spirit finally returned.

The breakfast food is pimple soup, which is not as rich as later generations, but purely ground pimple soup.

Moreover, when it comes to cooking skills, Zheng Fan feels that his cooking skills are much better than Baldness's. This woman obviously doesn't cook on weekdays, at least, she hasn't really put her mind on food.

Sigh, it's better to be Si Niang, she is beautiful, gentle and good at cooking.

After eating, Zheng Fan put on his armor again, then sat down on the stone outside the tent, and began to be dazed.

Obviously, he can be regarded as the chief general of an army, but he was called by the Marquis of Jingnan to become a mascot in the Chinese army;

Liang Cheng led his subordinates to the front, so he had nothing to do at this time, at least he had nothing else to do before Jingnan Hou called him to command the account.

It is not my turn to inspect the military camp, and it has nothing to do with me to check the morale of the soldiers.

These days, Zheng Fan feels like the kind of "eunuch who supervises the army" he read when reading history.

It was almost noon when Zheng Fan received the order from the Marquis of Jingnan to discuss matters in the tent.

In the commander's tent, there were a total of four generals and a group of generals. Everyone quietly accompanied Jingnanhou to have lunch.

Lunch is very simple, just soak the corn bread in water, everyone from Jingnan Hou eats this.

After Zheng Fan came in, some soldiers sent him a meal of "Recalling Bitterness and Thinking about Sweetness\

,"have no choice,

I can only bite the bullet and chew on it.

In fact, the army is not short of food. Although it hurts me that so much money and food were consumed to support this expedition, Siniang and the blind man are still very angry. It's still a good thing, isn't it?

Therefore, in terms of grain and grass, there is no deduction at all, and they even try their best.

The Marquis of Jingnan finished eating,

The rest have also eaten,

Zheng Fan, who came last, silently stuffed the last piece of corn bread into his mouth,

grass,

This is definitely not their own food, there are actually stones in this nest.

"Woooo..."

Zheng Fan was choked,

Yes,

In the handsome tent, Zheng Fan clutched his chest in pain.

At this time, a general soldier named Wang Ge came over kindly, patted Zheng Fan on the back a few times, and then took a bowl of water for Zheng Fan to drink.

"call…………"

comfortable.

The rest of the people watched this scene silently.

so close,

The high-level generals who died in this expedition are about to be born.

Tian Wujing glanced at Zheng Fan and asked:

"Are you okay?"

Zheng Fan shook his head, then bowed his hands to express his apology to the surroundings.

Wang Ge joked: "I heard from someone before that my brother Zheng was born in a merchant's family, it seems that he really can't live a hard life."

This is a well-intentioned ridicule, not targeted, it can be heard from Wang Ge's tone, after all, everyone knows Tian Wujing's importance to Zheng Fan, and will not foolishly put eye drops in front of him.

The surrounding generals also laughed when they heard this.

Tian Wujing pressed his hand, and everyone immediately fell silent.

"This expedition, the food and drink in the mountains these days are all relying on Zheng Chengshou's support. You all owe Zheng Chengshou a favor."

When Wang Ge and other generals heard the words, they all saluted Zheng Fan, and Zheng Fan had no choice but to return the salute again.

"Today's meal was specially ordered by the Marquis. First, scrape off the oil and water in your belly, so that you won't get tired of those fat and tender cattle and sheep when you enter the snowy field in the future."

"Hahaha…………"

The generals laughed.

"With another day's journey, our army will be able to cross the Tianduan Mountains and enter the snowfield, Wang Ge, Zhang Cheng."

"The end is here!"

"The end is here!"

"You two lead 10,000 soldiers and horses as the right army, with Wang Ge as the main force."

"The last general takes orders!"

"Xiao Mingxuan, Li Dingdong."

"The end is here!"

"The end is here!"

"The two of you lead 10,000 soldiers and horses as the left army, with Xiao Mingxuan as the main force."

"The last general takes orders."

"The Marquis set off one day earlier, led 10,000 riders from the headquarters, and joined the vanguard army with 3,000 riders from Shengle City as the central army. The first one stepped into the snow field, and the left and right armies dragged behind to cover and follow the Marquis's central army."

All generals in unison:

"The last general takes orders!"

It is said that it is a discussion in the account, but in fact there is no discussion. The overall combat idea is very simple, that is, Lao Tzu leads the Chinese army to lead the way, and you follow my route.

Don't worry about the route of entry, strategic goals, strategic planning, etc., just follow my pace.

This is the layout of Jingnan Hou for this battle. Zheng Fan knows that this is based on Tian Wujing's own exploration of the snowfield.

The snowfield is vast, and it is a completely unfamiliar battlefield for the generals of the Yan Army. It is the first time to enter the snowfield to fight, and everyone is blinded by everything in the snowfield. , and even get lost, but this one seems to be simple and straightforward or even sloppy, but it is the safest.

The key is to look at the performance of Tian Wujing, a guide dog.

After the generals left the tent, they started to make their own preparations. Zheng Fan stayed in the tent to help carry some things.

After tidying up, Tian Wujing got on the beast.

Zheng Fan looked at the beast in front of him, and the beast also looked at Zheng Fan, and then, the beast rolled his eyes at Zheng Fan.

"..." Zheng Fan.

"After returning from this expedition, Ben Hou will help you ask for one from the palace."

"Thank you, Lord Hou!"

Zheng Fan has long been jealous of this piss beast, and the piss beast that Tian Wujing helped ask for must have a bloodline level that is not low, not like Xu Pangpang's unicorn.

Then feed it some panacea to ripen it, or feed it some vampire blood or zombie blood to see if it can stimulate the bloodline.

The 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Chinese army were quickly prepared and set off early. One day later, they joined the vanguard army led by Liang Cheng, with a total of more than 13,000 horses, and began to go out of the mountain.

………

"Onda, the tribe here is simply a bunch of waste, they are ashamed of the strong body bestowed by the stars."

"Que Mu, my good brother, please put away your complaints, they have given us food and water, what more do we want?"

"Onda, the tribes here are very rich, they should contribute their warriors to the great cause of the king!"

On Da stroked his beard, he only felt that the brother in front of him was so simple and cute.

They were ordered by the king to lead five thousand warriors to the west, because the news came a few days ago that in the mountains of this area, the Yan people moved a lot, and many savages who originally lived in the mountains of this area He had to escape from his homeland and come to the snow field to survive.

They are actually here to guard.

And here, there used to be many tribes. Because these tribes are adjacent to the side of the Tianduan Mountains, they have learned to do business for decades, and there will be caravans from time to time, so their lives are easy. It is more comfortable than the tribes in other places in the snow field.

At the beginning, when Ang Da accompanied Wang on business trips, he had traveled here many times, so he naturally knew how much business can bring to the tribe.

Even though the bulk has been earned by those unscrupulous businessmen from Yan, Jin, and Qian, the tribes on the snowfield can still obtain some of the most precious supplies.

"Que Mu, don't be angry with them, the prestige of the king has already spread here, didn't you see that when these tribes saw us coming, they took the initiative to send food and water, as well as tents and flocks?

They did not object to being led by the king. After the king settled the war at Xueguan, the king's banner would come here in person, and the warriors of these tribes would also become the most loyal followers of the king. "

"But, why do we have to come here so far when other people can fight Jin people in Xuehai Pass?

Jin people's soldiers and horses are all in Xueguan, what are we here to guard against? "

This is what Que Mu doesn't understand the most. Both he and Onda are warriors under the king's hand. What he desires is to tear up the Jin people who used to oppress him on the battlefield, not come here to drink the sheep here. Milk!

Onda's gaze became deep,

The savage's vision is still too narrow, and Wang has expressed emotion to Onda more than once.

And as a warrior who once walked outside with the king, Onda knew how vast the outside world was.

"We are guarding against the Yan people."

Onda said seriously.

"Yan people? Why did Yan people come here?" Que Mu felt incredible.

"Are you sure that the Yan people will never come here?"

"This...but..."

Onda said in a deep voice:

"Are the people of Jin powerful?"

"The people of Jin have now been defeated by me, and their emperor has also been defeated by us."

"Confused, that's just a part of Jin people. There are three families of Jin people. For so many years, it's only one family of Jin people who have been fighting with our tribe."

"I know that there are two Jin people."

"It's gone, it's gone now, the two Jin people have now been annexed by the Yan people, and the Yan people have occupied their territory and captured their population!"

"So what? If the Yan people dare to come to the snowfield, I will lead the warriors to tear them apart. I will surround their heads and sacrifice to the stars!"

Onda reached out and patted his forehead,

The Quemu in front of him is very powerful, and he is one of the strongest fighters under Wang's command, but his brain...

Ang Da recalled the scene when he and Wang were in Beifeng County, and the figure of the Zhenbei Army in black armor appeared in his mind;

"Que Mu, please put away your ignorance and arrogance!"

"I………"

"Yes, I also think that it is impossible for the Yan people to come to the snowfield, because I really can't think of a reason why the Yan people would come to the snowfield, and Wang is the same.

The abnormal movement in the Tianduan Mountain Range may be due to the Yan people cleaning up the nearby settlements. This is normal. When the Jin people's Helian family was there, they would go into the mountains from time to time to clean up the settlements.

But it is precisely because they are Yan people that Wang Ning sent you and me here to watch. You don't know the weight of Yan people in Wang's heart, and you have never seen the strength of Yan people! "

At that time, the young me and Wang leaned against the tent outside Zhenbei Hou's mansion after busy work, and the two of them looked up at the stars together.

The stars in the desert are as bright and clear as the stars in the snowfield.

Ang Da remembered Wang asking himself: Who is stronger, our saints or the barbarians?

After being silent for a long time, he gritted his teeth and replied: Barbarians are stronger.

Their horses are taller, their warriors are stronger, and their riding and shooting skills are sharper.

The king asked again: How about we compare with the Yan people?

Onda was speechless, because the extremely powerful barbarian was suppressed by the Yan people in the desert, and the result was too clear.

Even though the queen later said that our holy clan will also become stronger in the future, we will regain the homeland that the remnants of the Great Xia took away from our ancestors, and we will become as powerful as the barbarians and the Yan people.

But the shadow branded by the Yan people on Onda's heart is still too deep.

And the little girl who... left that scar on Wang's face.

On that day, Wang was almost executed, but when he came back after being whipped, he was not angry or in pain at all. Instead, he pointed to the scar on his face and said to himself:

That little girl will become my "post" in the future.

"Onda, Onda!"

Que Mu's shout woke Ang Da from his remembrance.

"Que Mu, you don't have to obey my orders, but you must obey the king's will. Do you remember what the king said to you before you set off?"

"Remember………"

Onda took a deep breath and said seriously:

"Then please remember, when you see the black dragon flag, please let go of all your arrogance."

Que Mu clenched his fists tightly and made a "creaking" sound. Obviously, he was extremely dissatisfied.

Ang Da put his hand on Que Mu's shoulder,

comforted:

"Okay, when the king's army invades Xueguan, you will have a chance to fight the Yan people, and then you can fully prove your bravery.

Now, please help me send someone to inform the leaders of the nearby tribes, and ask them if they have any news from the tribe warriors I sent them into the mountains earlier. "

"snort."

Que Mu turned around and left the big tent.

On Da let out a breath, pursed his lips,

There was one thing that Que Mu didn't know about, or rather, the entire tribe, except for himself and the king, no one knew about it at all.

That is, Wang Zeng sent a team to Yanjing, hoping to send troops together with the emperor of the Yan people to destroy the Situ family.

But the legion of envoys,

Since then there has been no news.

………

After the Yan army left the mountains, they did not gallop into the snowfield immediately, but regrouped. While taking a final rest, they had to wait for the follow-up of the left and right armies, not to mention waiting until they came out together, but they had to get closer Look at the distance between each other.

At this time, Zheng Fan returned to his army and directly found Liang Cheng.

"Master?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I have limited time, and I have to go back to Jingnanhou later."

"This is Tian Wujing deliberately cultivating the Lord."

The war brings you by your side, there is no more extravagant opportunity for internship observation than this.

"My lord, I have spent so much effort to raise the troops, but I can't personally command them. After pulling out a team, I have to run to be my own soldiers."

Not to mention that Zheng Fan didn't have such a big grievance. Anyway, this team was pulled out by himself. It's like you bought a toy with hard work, but you couldn't play it by yourself. Instead, a big brother snatched it from you. Toy, say shamelessly to you:

Come on, my brother will teach you how to play, so watch carefully.

"My lord this time is..."

"Oh, I almost forgot, hurry up and tell me how to fight this time, don't be too specific, talk about the general direction, I have a hunch that Tian Wujing will test me on this later."

These days, Tian Wujing kept Zheng Fan in the Chinese army, and would ask Zheng Fan some military questions from time to time. Some questions were more profound, and he would deliberately let Zheng Fan think about it before answering.

Just like when the teacher left homework when I was in school, I handed in the homework the next day.

Zheng Fan took the opportunity to go to the former army to find Liang Cheng. After getting the standard answer from Liang Cheng, he went back to find Tian Wujing the next morning:

"I've been thinking about it all night, and I finally realized something, don't you see..."

After each answer, Zheng Fan could feel the satisfied look in Tian Wujing's eyes, and sometimes, some of Zheng Fan's answers could make Tian Wujing think and feel deeply.

Therefore, no one is an omniscient and omnipotent god, and so is Tian Wujing;

Perhaps, in Tian Wujing's view, Zheng Fan is a rising "general star", but he does not know that he is "communicating" with another military master every day.

It's Zheng Fan who suffers, because he is worried that the standard answers he copied are too standard, so sometimes he deliberately ignores some, blurs some, so that the answers look exciting enough, but not perfect;

Not only can Jingnan Hou be satisfied after listening to the answer, but he also has room to "point out" you.

In this way, after making a job by himself, Jingnanhou can also feel refreshed, a win-win situation.

"My lord, the strategy is actually very clear. Tian Wujing personally leads the central army, and the left and right armies behind him serve as support and support. Considering the situation on the snowfield, the method of chasing sheep with wolves should be used. The shepherd dogs in the group bite off first, that is to say, they only choose the strongest tribes to fight. If they are killed, the remaining tribes are likely to panic and collapse. They must seize the opportunity to fight, or they will not fight. As soon as the war starts, we must bite down all the way, and we cannot let the savages on this snowfield have the opportunity to gather many tribes to form a coalition force."

Liang Cheng was still talking here, and Xue San, who was dirty, came over there. Xue San had been missing for a long time. Fumbled for news.

"San'er, you've been away for so many days, but you're so worried about me." After Zheng Fan finished speaking, he immediately turned to Liang Cheng and said, "If you have anything to add, tell me quickly."

I am preparing to perform a wave of bitter drama routines;

Xue San: "..."

Immediately, Xue San came over and said:

"My lord, I have a copy of the latest military information here. You can hand it in for credit, my lord. Let me say that you personally detected it, my lord."

Liang Cheng smiled "hehe" and said, "San'er, you will not be here for a few days. I don't know that the Lord is basically teaching classes in Tian Wujing's Chinese army every day."

"Er..." Xue San was taken aback for a moment.

Zheng Fan said indifferently: "It's okay, I'll take San'er to report to Tian Wujing later."

………

"The last general, Xue San, see Lord Jingnan."

Xue San took the initiative to come over to salute, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and handed it up.

Zheng Fan walked over, took the paper, made eye contact with Xue San, then turned around and handed the paper to Jingnanhou.

Jingnanhou spread out the paper, and found that what was drawn on it was actually a map of the distribution of several forces in the area in front of him. It was drawn with charcoal, and it was a bit rough.

In fact, Xue San originally wanted to draw contour lines or something, but after thinking about it, forget it.

Tian Wujing quickly discovered a wrong position, and said:

"An extra tribe?"

"Returning to Lord Hou, this tribe should have migrated here recently. It is not so much a tribe as it is an army stationed on a green beach in the northeast."

"Number of people."

"Back to Lord Hou, there are five thousand people, half of them are in armor."

"Sure?"

"Small sure, there will be no mistakes."

"good."

Tian Wujing looked sideways at Zheng Fan who was standing beside him, and said:

"If Benhou remembers correctly, this is also your subordinate, right?"

Because Xue San's image is really "never forget", it's hard not to leave an impression.

"Yes, my lord."

"You know how to recruit talents."

"The last general is just looking for talents for Lord Hou."

Tian Wujing directly ignored this sycophant.

"It seems that the extra soldiers and horses should have been dispatched from the front line of the Northeast Snow Customs recently. That wild man king is indeed giving me face."

No one would have expected Yan Guoguo to send troops, even Zheng Fan hadn't thought of it before receiving the order, but the savage king deliberately sent 5,000 soldiers to stare at this place when the battle was at its most tense. This vigilance is also excellent.

Tian Wujing looked at Zheng Fan,

road:

"Zheng Chengshou."

"The end will be here."

"What do you think next, which one shall we fight first?"

You guessed it right.

"Just fight this army sent by the savage king.

In front of the eyes of many tribes around here, crush and eat this soldier and horse, let them feel the terror of my Dayan iron cavalry from the first moment, make them fearful, make them despair, and finally, let them become Becoming a flock of frightened sheep, and we are a pack of wolves on the snowfield, biting them down all the way, letting their blood soak this snowfield! "

Zheng Fan condensed Liang Cheng's answer a bit, and finally added an "exaggerated" rhetorical technique as a concluding lyric.

It can be seen that Tian Wujing is very satisfied with Zheng Fan's answer.

"The savage king has been stealing his master from Zhenbeihou's mansion for several years, and he really made a fuss. Now, it's the master's turn to take care of his apprentice."

With Jingnan Hou's order,

Tens of thousands of cavalry began to move, and they no longer covered up, nor did they hide. They trampled on the land under their feet with the iron hooves of their horses.

Under the galloping iron horse,

Black dragon flag, fluttering in the wind!
