Devil’s Advent

The army was about to withdraw, Zheng Fan let out a long sigh of relief.

Continuing to fight is too unpredictable. Zheng Fan knew a truth from his previous life, that is, he has no talent for business.

Right now, no matter how corrupt the situation between Cheng Guo and Ye Ren is, they won't be able to hit Shengle City anytime soon.

In this wave of expeditions, I have contributed the army's food and grass supplies, but if I share it, I will definitely earn money.

Don't underestimate those tribal leaders. Ordinary savages live a miserable life, but those chiefs and leaders of large and small tribes are definitely rich, and there are not a few seized goods;

As for cattle and sheep, it is even more vast.

Even if these were not mentioned, even the captured war horses were enough to make Zheng Fan wake up from his dream with a smile.

Why did the knights of the Three Jin Dynasties dare to challenge the iron cavalry of Yan State? Isn't it just the horses supplied by the snowfield?

In this era, a good war horse is definitely more expensive than a human life, and it is several times more expensive.

Therefore, Zheng Chengshou felt that it was a wise move to accept it as soon as it was good.

And as Jingnanhou said, the errands that he could win for himself before may be hopeless, but in other words, the geographical location of Shengle City has been promoted from a corner to a strategic front line in an instant, and its importance has been highlighted instead. After getting out, it will be more convenient and more confident to ask the court for soldiers and ordnance in the future.

It's okay, I just don't have a vision, and now I'm happy to go back with the harvest.

Who knows, Jingnan Hou said again:

"Chicken ribs are tasteless to eat, but it's a pity to throw them away. This is a comment written in your book, and it's used as a metaphor for this boring appearance on the battlefield.

Ben Hou just cooked chicken soup and called you over, but you acted stupid in front of Ben Hou. "

Zheng Fan immediately stood up, then knelt down on one knee, and replied:

"Master Hou, it's not that the general is pretending to be stupid. How can the general not know what is written in the book he wrote?"

Paralyzed, blind man, what the hell are you copying and copying the simple ones?

"The army is outside, the situation is unpredictable, and the general will have self-knowledge, and it is really impossible to see the correct path from such a foggy situation.

The last general really dare not accept Master Hou's chicken ribs. "

"stand up."

Zheng Fan stood up.

"People, you have to be responsible. When I ask you something, you can answer it truthfully. The sky is falling, and I will hold it up.

You are just too cautious, if things go on like this, you will eventually lose your spirit. "

"Yes, Master Hou taught me that."

"As a class teacher, do you have any suggestions?"

"If we go back to Lord Hou, we have to go back slowly."

"Go back slowly?"

"Yes, after all, after we entered the snowfield, we were always winning battles. The savages were in front of us, and we were defeated every time they came.

No matter how bad the situation is now, it's the Situ family's own problem. I, Dayan, really can't handle this kind of pig teammate.

Therefore, we can go back slowly and do our best. If we go back quickly or in a hurry, the outside world will mistakenly think that our army has failed in the expedition.

Furthermore, the team of wildlings, slaves, cattle, sheep and horses in the rear of our army also needs time to gather up. People can run faster, but cattle and sheep can't let them have wings.

Our army retreated slowly to cover them in the rear. In the bitter cold and barren land of the snowy field, the cattle and sheep are the arable land of the savages on the snowy field. We drove their cattle and sheep back. I dare not say anything else, at least this area In the snowy plains, there is no recovery for seven or eight years. "

Many people have a misunderstanding, that is, they think that nomads eat meat every day. That is so naive. Even if they have a flock of sheep, they have to kill one to satisfy their greed during the festival. In other words, it is actually the means of production. Eating cattle and sheep at will is similar to the people in the Central Plains selling fields at will.

"In the final analysis, are you still doing business?"

"Yes, Lord Hou, only if you make a lot of money this time and propose to fight the savage next time, all parties will be willing to support it.

In fact, the most important thing is for Lord Hou's first-time fame. Lord Hou is my Great Yan God of War, so we must not be stained by it. "

"Oh? Still thinking about this Marquis?"

"yes."

"The Marquis knows."

"I will retire at the end."

"Wait."

"What else do you want Master Hou to order?"

"On the way back, fill the water source with the corpses and feces of the savages. You can keep an eye on this matter."

"..." Zheng Fan.

………

The Yan army began to withdraw, and the speed of withdrawal was indeed very slow. From time to time, some cavalry would go out to fight Caogu, and greet those tribes that had not been greeted when they came because of the remoteness. After all, it is not easy for everyone to come out. A familiar face.

The Savage King seemed to have completely forgotten that there was such a Yan army in the snowfield, and never sent an organized army over, not even a gift.

I don't know if it was because of the turmoil in the battle on Chengguo's side that they couldn't draw out any troops, or if they knew that the Yan people were retreating, everyone tacitly formed a tacit understanding.

Yes, a tacit understanding.

In the area where the Yan people ravaged, the major tribes were basically defeated, and the small tribes fled. Although the Yan people captured a lot of money, from another perspective, it is actually equivalent to helping the wildling king clean up this room. He sent a troop over, and soon he would gain actual control over this area, and everyone would earn money.

In this way, the army returned slowly, and it took more than a month to return to the exit of the Tianduan Mountain Range. Next, they had to cross the Tianduan Mountain Range to return to Shengle.

During the long march, the morale of the army has been maintained well.

Xue San went outside to pick some mushrooms and wild vegetables and came back. At night, Zheng Fanhua pulled out a small half to find Tian Wujing to flatter him.

Vegetables are really good things now, eating meat every day, eating meat every day, it is estimated that half of the whole army has some constipation.

Fortunately, the number of soldiers who fell ill due to acclimatization to the environment was controlled, and they were separated into a separate group and transported by special personnel.

In ancient times, when marching and fighting, there were too many examples of encountering infectious diseases and plagues. The Jingnan Army also had corresponding regulations.

Zheng Fan also deliberately went to "observe" it, not to mention, he is really professional. Of course, this kind of professionalism is summed up by the lessons learned time and time again.

Carrying wild vegetables and mushrooms, Zheng Fan came to Tian Wujing's handsome tent.

Tian Wujing was holding a letter and looking at it. When Zheng Fan came in, Tian Wujing put down the envelope and smiled at Zheng Fan.

this laugh,

Zheng Fan was taken aback.

in an instant,

A coolness rushed from the tailbone directly to the top of the head, and the whole person shivered immediately.

In fact, Tian Wujing's expression made people feel too uncomfortable.

"Master Hou, is it a letter from home?"

During the march, there was a huge time difference and lag in message transmission. Sometimes accidents occurred, and military information and letters were not delivered.

At this time, a letter from home is really worth ten thousand gold.

Tian Wujing nodded,

"A letter from her, she is about to give birth."

"Then I guess, when we return to Shengle City, Lord Hou will be a father."

The letter was delivered, and it took at least 20 days on the road. This is the premise that there are no mistakes. It is really difficult to walk, and you will get lost if you don't pay attention.

"Unfortunately, when she gave birth, Benhou couldn't be by her side."

"Master Hou is going to fight for the country, Madam must understand."

Zheng Fan muttered in his heart at the same time:

Why don't you say that the first time she came to your house to meet her in-laws, she met you and destroyed her house?

Of course, this kind of words is just a little flirtatious in my heart, saying that it is absolutely impossible to say it.

"What are you holding in your hand?"

"Mushrooms and some wild vegetables, I still have some sauce left here, let's make a small pot."

The sauce is the bottom of the hot pot.

Before the expedition, Siniang personally fried it with butter and various spices, bringing a lot of people.

If a woman wants to grab a man, she must first grab his stomach.

Although Zheng Chengshou is not a woman, he has benefited from food several times, so he naturally pays more attention to it.

Boil water on the stove, put the hot pot bottom material in, and when the water boils, add wild vegetables and mushrooms.

Zheng Fan wasn't worried about whether the mushroom would be poisonous. Xue San had rich experiences of lurking in harsh natural conditions, so he knew what he could and couldn't eat.

"Zheng Fan."

"Well, Lord Hou?"

"What should a woman pay attention to when confinement?"

"Um?"

How could Tian Wujing ask such a question?

Immediately, Zheng Fan also understood, probably Jingnan Hou really regarded himself as his own, after all, he was still the baby's godfather, and he was too embarrassed to ask such a question to other people, so he could only ask himself .

Fortunately, even though Zheng Chengshou hadn't had confinement himself, he still beeped a little bit.

"Pay attention to keep warm, don't catch a cold, don't wash your hair and take a bath frequently, eat some food that nourishes qi and blood and is gentle, and if the madam wants to be by herself..."

Zheng Fan hesitated for a moment, then continued:

"If you want to feed your child by yourself, you have to avoid some food. Oh, by the way, crucian carp soup feeds milk."

Zheng Fan didn't know whether he was right or not, anyway, his impression was almost the same, no matter whether there was scientific reason or not, at least he should say something more to look like he was very knowledgeable.

"The nurse at home has already prepared."

"But for your own child, it's better to do it yourself. If the wife doesn't have many, you can also use cow's milk and goat's milk."

Tian Wujing nodded slightly while listening, obviously, he was really remembering.

Seriously,

It was really rare for Zheng Fan to see such a dignified Jingnan Hou——a human side.

"My wife is good at recuperating the body, Lord Hou. When we return to Shengle City, I will take my wife to Litian City. My family is safe and safe to use."

Hearing this sentence, Tian Wujing's eyes sank slightly, and then nodded silently.

"By the way, Lord Hou, have you decided on the child's name?"

"Your Majesty wants to name it."

"Oh, yes, yes, what about the nickname?"

"Li Liangting took a nickname."

"Forehead?"

Co-author, what's the matter with you as a father?

"It was agreed many years ago. At that time, His Majesty was only the crown prince. From now on, he will take my child's first name, and Li Liangting will take my child's nickname."

"Master Hou, your relationship is really good."

Tian Wujing shook his head,

road:

"Ben Hou was only ten years old at the time, and Ben Hou didn't agree, so the two of them beat him up."

"..." Zheng Fan.

"When Ben Hou grows up and wants to beat him back, one of them has basically lost his martial arts skills due to injury.

Another is...

In short, the debts bullied by the two of them when they were young cannot be recovered;

Gradually,

I don't even plan to discuss it. "
