Devil’s Advent

Chapter 252 Old Silver Coin

Liang Cheng is back.

The day of his return was several days later than expected, because he not only brought back the treasures in the treasure house of the Helian family, but also picked out two savage villages and forced the two savage villages to send out their leaders. His son came to Shengle City to meet the city guard to express his submission.

Perhaps, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty first sent Huo Qubing to go out with the army, he was actually a little uneasy;

Zheng Fan, on the other hand, was completely relieved that Liang Cheng led the army to go out.

Genius generals need to rely on an army to do the touchstone and gamble, but a veteran general like Liang Cheng really doesn't need to worry too much.

When the troops returned to the city, Zheng Fan went out of the city to greet them in person.

In a scene of kneeling and supporting,

Liang Cheng has advanced.

It's abrupt, but it's just as it should be.

So when the demon kings had dinner together at night, the pressure suddenly came to Xue San and the blind man.

Everyone is pursuing progress, the two of them are undoubtedly holding back, and even Fan Li has advanced, what reason do you have to explain and excuse yourself?

Ah Ming is not here. Yesterday, Ah Ming led a motorcade to Yanjing.

After the dinner party was over, the rest of the people went to work on their own, while Zheng Fan and Liang Cheng sat facing each other.

"This is the news from the past few days and Litian City's order."

After getting used to the office methods and efficiency of later generations, in many cases, written records and transmissions are indeed much clearer and more accurate than verbal ones.

After Liang Cheng read it carefully, he nodded and said:

"My lord's guess is correct. It should be that the country of Yan plans to use troops against the savages."

"So sure?"

Zheng Fan is used to being used as a smoke bomb,

The first time I was in the civilian camp, I was used as a bait;

Going south to conquer the country also had the same fate. For this reason, Li Bao, the commander-in-chief of the Zhenbei Army, lost an arm.

Zheng Fan felt that he could change his name to Xu Huang, because he was always regarded as that shot.

"My lord, there are a lot of things that need to be raised for the army to go out. According to the information we have now, there is no large-scale war preparation in the country of Yan. Therefore, the scale of this battle must not be large. It is speculated that Jingnan Hou may be responsible alone.

In other words, this is not a national war, but a military operation in charge of a military region.

After the Jingnan Army went through the battle of attacking Jin, the Marquis of Jingnan entered Litian City, and the Jingnan Army was expanded. But now, firstly, soldiers and horses are needed to suppress the new Jinjin, and secondly, the entry of new soldiers will inevitably lead to the loss of the original overall combat power. Therefore, the subordinates estimate that the dispatch of troops this time is likely to be led by the Marquis of Jingnan, and the number of troops should only be around 30,000 to 50,000.

And considering that the road in the Tianduan Mountains is difficult, the environment on the snowfield is even worse, and it is difficult to supply the army, if we really go that way instead of borrowing from Chengguo, the size of the army may only be 30,000. up. "

"Can't you go south from Jin?"

"To the south of the Kingdom of Jin, in the area blocked by the Nanmen Pass, there are many small countries, which look like scraps, but actually want to swallow them in one bite. Unless hundreds of thousands of troops press down on the border, it is easy to eat up;

Besides, although the state of Chu is said to be fighting among themselves, if it puts too much pressure on the state of Chu, it will actually help the state of Chu to reunite. This deal is not worthwhile. "

The small countries at the junction of the big countries in that circle are actually buffer zones left by the big countries by default.

"This time, it's definitely not Tian Wujing who is idle and bored, and wants to go to the snowy field for a horse race. So, what is Yanhuang planning?"

In Zheng Fan's perception, that kind of international aid, especially military intervention, has been a thankless task for a very long time.

Liang Cheng seemed to have guessed what Zheng Fan was thinking, and said:

"My lord, the Situ family is not a small remote country. In fact, he occupies half of the Jin country, and its strength should not be underestimated.

Earlier, the Situ family's army went to the northeast to defend against the savages, and completely emptied their backs to the Yan people. This time, the Yan people should reciprocate.

His subordinates speculated that Emperor Yan might want to use this move to form a fact that does not exist in writing, that is, Chengguo, which is lower than Yanguo, used his own mind and courage, as well as the actual actions of the Yan army, to make Situ The whole family owes a big favor.

There are actually many ways to deal with the enemy. If you can make this opponent not attack you for twenty years, then he is basically not a threat. You can save a lot of energy and focus on other things. on the one hand. "

"Don't you think it's naive?" Zheng Fan asked.

Put the relationship between countries on friendship and friendship?

In later generations, there are not too many examples of how many countries used to call each other like a big brother, and then turned into hatred and killing each other.

"Of course, this kind of relationship is not reliable, but once this move is successful, it can provide Cheng Guo with a good reason for the conservatives in Situ's family."

"This effect?"

"The effect of this move is that Yan's national power has been overwhelming Cheng. This is the root."

"Oh I got it."

"Furthermore, Yan's move may only use the Marquis of Jingnan and 30,000 soldiers. To put it in a rather unlucky way, even..."

"Shut up!"

"..." Liang Cheng.

"Okay, I know what you mean. You want to say that the cost is not big anyway, right?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I understand."

"Then this subordinate will lead the army into the mountain again tomorrow, and clear out a road first. The Marquis of Jingnan probably wants to wait for him to lead the army through the Tianduan Mountains into the snowfield, so as not to be discovered by savages. Wildlings deliver messages."

"Thanks a lot."

"Master, this time, this subordinate intends to keep the one thousand Jingnan army to guard the house, and take the rest out."

"Okay, you can make up your own mind, and use battle as a substitute for training."

"Yes, this subordinate understands."

Not long after Liang Cheng left, Xue San came in, holding a big box in his hand.

"Master, come, come into the house."

"Um?"

"My lord, come on, come in, come on~"

Xue San moved the box into the room first.

After Zheng Fan entered, Xue San closed the door suspiciously again.

"What's in the box?"

Zheng Fan pointed to the box and asked.

When Liang Cheng leads the troops, he advances to the next level, and then immediately leads the troops before entering the mountain, as if he is going to hand over the goods and upgrade to a higher level when he comes back.

Zheng Fan also knew that Xue San must be extremely anxious now.

"My lord, come on, take a look. These days, I am training those fifty second-handers during the day, and I am polishing these things at night. This is my filial piety, and please accept it with the Lord."

With that said, Xue San opened the box,

Zheng Fan was stunned.

Xue San took out the brand new things inside one by one like offering treasures:

"Master, these are handcuffs."

"My lord, look, this is a tendon and leather binding rope, it will never break the skin."

"My lord, this is a leather whip made of wolf skin bought from a trading company. It is a whip without barbs. I also specially made a whip with barbs here. Oh, I also adjusted it myself below. Gold sore medicine."

"Master, this is a mask."

"That's right, my lord, this is a mouth ball, I sterilized it, you can remember to sterilize it after you use it in the future."

"Ah, and, this is the main event, it's me..."

………

Therefore, life is like this. When you find that the road ahead does not work, you may wish to change your mind.

Coupled with the fact that there are so many successful samples in front of you, you can always find some patterns by summarizing.

Xue San felt that he had found a way and succeeded. When his aura increased sharply, the depths of his heart were filled with satisfaction.

The suffocating psychological pressure was relieved at once, the sun became brighter and the air became fresher.

Originally, Xue San planned to go to the blind man's roof to listen to the movement at night.

Didn't the blind man say last time that he would not let him go if he went again?

come,

Who is afraid of whom?

Bibi!

But Xue San didn't go in the end. In fact, the last time I went to see the blind man, it was just to see if the blind man had advanced. Such a useless thing.

As for coming out from the blind man to go to the roof, it was a sign of losing control of his mind. He actually forgot that the Lord would throw the magic pill out of the window when he and Si Niang were doing needlework!

patience, patience,

Be reserved, be reserved;

So Xue Sanyi didn't sleep at night,

When everyone gathered to have breakfast the next day, and at the same time to see off Liang Cheng as he led the army into the mountains again, Xue San walked over at a pace that no relatives recognized.

The blind man was sitting there drinking porridge, taking small sips slowly, before the Lord and Siniang came, Fan Li and Liang Cheng were sitting there eating their breakfast too.

Xue San intentionally sat beside the blind man. When he sat down, a shadow began to spread from his body, gradually wrapping the blind man's arms.

The blind man stopped drinking porridge,

Xue San hurriedly said:

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just got promoted, and I still can't control my strength attribute, oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The blind man was not necessarily angry when he heard the words, he just smiled and continued to drink porridge.

Pack,

You pretend for me,

You are now the whole shift, really at the end of the crane,

You must be very upset, must be angry, must be ashamed, must be restless, pretend, pretend, pretend!

Xue San picked up the chopsticks,

road:

"Everyone should have advanced, we have to celebrate, hehehe."

As he said that, he continued to look at the blind man out of the corner of his eye, only to find that the blind man continued to drink porridge with peace of mind, as if he was detached.

At this moment, Zheng Fan and Siniang came over to have dinner together, and except for Ah Ming, everyone was sitting together again.

Xue San kept smiling and eating the steamed stuffed bun, eating it with the shadow of the blind man, it was delicious, really delicious!

Zheng Fan didn't notice at first,

After discovering that Xue San had been looking at the blind man, Zheng Fan realized that among the seven devil kings, only the blind man was not promoted.

Everyone has been promoted, but the blind man has not been promoted, and the blind man's contribution and hard work are definitely second to none among many demon kings.

At this time,

The blind man finished his bowl of porridge,

Facing Xue San with some surprise, said:

"San'er, have you advanced?"

Xue San was stunned for a moment,

"Um?"

"Congratulations, congratulations, I really envy you, congratulations."

"What?"

The blind man turned to Zheng Fan again and said:

"My lord, I still have something to deal with. Cheng, please be careful. My lord, I'll go to work first."

The blind man got up,

turn around,
