Devil’s Advent

"Get off the boat, quick, quick, quick!"

The captain shouted loudly, and Guo Dong and Xu An quickly got off the boat.

Unlike before at the Jingcheng Wharf, everyone went ashore leisurely and leisurely. Now, the navy has entered the capital of the Chu people, so, to be on the safe side, the fleet chose the strategy of disembarking in batches and deploying troops.

On the one hand, it can be as efficient as possible, and on the other hand, it can quickly expand the field of view;

It doesn't matter whether the army will be scattered in the general way of spreading beans, but at least there will be no such extreme situation as being directly made dumplings when they get together to disembark.

For the Yan army who is used to cavalry combat, it is a bit awkward and unaccustomed to march on two legs, but after all, it has been experienced step by step during siege battles. The ability to change levels is beyond doubt.

"Quick, quick, keep up!"

The flag bearer ran ahead, Guo Dong, Xu An and a group of soldiers followed.

In fact, they don't know exactly where they are now, but they probably know that they and others have entered the depths of Chu country very far, and what the unfamiliar environment brings them is not panic and pressure, but a strange stimulation.

A few days ago, Dayan’s hundreds of thousands of soldiers from all walks of life were burying their heads in attacking the city. It can be said that they had suffered enough from the Chu people’s wall and army stronghold. At that time, many soldiers would curse every day after returning from camp: When I break your tortoise shell and go to your Chu land, I must burn, kill and loot Yunyun.

Now,

they did,

The main force of the Yan Army is still fighting against the solid city wall outside Zhennan Pass. I and others have already arrived in the heart of Chu State. How can we not make them excited?

In the final analysis, this is still not exhausted. The battle of Jingcheng was too easy to win. A granary fire burned for two days and nights, which can be regarded as lifting the hearts of the big guys.

Right now, if he suffers two setbacks in a row and is alone, his morale will definitely plummet.

At that time, no matter how elite you are, it will be useless, you will die in a foreign land, and your bones will be in a different place. When the pessimistic mood envelops the entire army, you will collapse as you want or will collapse.

Therefore, since ancient times, there have been many cases of lone troops in-depth battles, and it seems that there have been many classic battle cases, but this is actually a kind of survivor bias;

The reason why military adventures are called military adventures is because most of the broken halberds are called adventures.

At that time, Uncle Zheng accompanied Li Fusheng to the south. The two towns of Li Fusheng and Li Bao suppressed the northern army. Li Bao was in charge of leading them, and Li Fusheng directly crossed the Bianhe River and reached the city of Shangjing.

Putting aside the factors of combat power and so on, the reason why the Yan army can persevere, and the dry army who came all the way to stop it, can be said to have helped a lot.

Because, the Yan army can defeat them again and again, use the victories in battles to soothe the deep fear and anxiety of the lonely army, and use the defeats of dry people to make up for the morale that is constantly losing.

so,

the most important,

Still can't lose.

Uncle Zheng got off the deck, surrounded by his personal guards, and the sword master stood beside him.

In the front, where the reeds are sloping, there is a kind of yellowish color coming from autumn. If the poet comes here, he may write the inexplicable sadness;

It's a pity that although Uncle Zheng has always liked hypocrisy, he doesn't really like writing or copying poems.

And as a soldier, when my boots step on this slightly muddy ground, I can't help but feel a kind of emotion in my heart;

If it were normal times, and I led the cavalry to gallop like lightning, I would never touch this kind of area. The muddy reed marshes would often easily become a field of casualties for the side with cavalry as the main combat force.

"Si Niang."

"My lord."

Si Niang was wearing a black cloak and a leather armor she sewed herself, standing behind her master.

"I think the armor style of our personal guards is not bright enough."

"Go back and change."

Uncle Zheng smiled in satisfaction and nodded:

"good."

The Juggernaut on the one side had an expressionless expression, he was used to this Uncle Hirano's wandering mind whenever he was faced with a major event.

Perhaps this is a difference in outlook on life.

In the eyes of Uncle Zheng and the demon kings, the pursuit of refinement is a kind of great respect for life.

Originally, the town led by Gao Yi was regarded as Uncle Zheng's personal guard, but Uncle Zheng felt that after this battle, he would have a bigger territory and more power, so he had to change it.

As for how to change it specifically, it is not something that needs to be considered now.

The battlefield situation has already been laid out at this time.

According to the boundary of Yangcheng, it is impossible to say whether it belongs to the capital of the Chu people and is rich.

Of course, this kind of abundance may not have much to do with the lower classes, but here, there should be a lot of wealthy households, and it is impossible to have less food, treasures, silk, and beautiful maidservants.

San'er took a step ahead and led Dai Li and others to investigate Juyang City;

Jin Shuke, Gou Moli and Fan Li, the three of them led a group of troops, and rushed towards Juyang City from three directions.

If according to Yangcheng and Jingcheng, it can be done in one fell swoop, then it will be extremely beautiful. If the army goes deep alone, it can have a foothold, um, it is very good;

Even if they can't take it down, it doesn't matter, the Yan army will not foolishly prepare to attack the city, but will send troops to plunder the suburbs of the city, using blood to nourish the evil spirit of the soldiers.

Of course, it can also be called in a high-sounding manner to "supply the enemy", "reduce the war potential of the Chu people" and "create panic".

"Um."

Uncle Zheng sighed.

The Juggernaut said, "Are you hungry?"

Uncle Zheng nodded,

road:

"I didn't eat breakfast, I was on an empty stomach and wanted to drink sliced ​​mutton soup."

………

"Tsk!"

Behind the slope, Xue San raised his head and looked at Yangcheng in front of him.

It is said that Yangcheng is not a big city, nor is it a place for military strategists to contend for. It is just a county seat in the land of Gyeonggi.

The wind of Jingcheng's fall should have been conveyed, but the news of the Yan army's downriver should not have come so fast.

But according to Yangcheng, the gates of the city are closed tightly, as if they are facing an enemy.

Xue San smacked his lips, if it was just to close the city gate, it would be fine, but outside the city, there are two Yingkou.

One, in the north of the city, and one, in the south of the city.

The camp is not big, only a dozen tents, and each camp looks like a hundred people, but what is interesting is that they are all cavalry, and at a glance, the number of horses is actually more than the number of people .

The armor on those cavalrymen was also too bright.

Let's put it this way, this kind of armor, if the master doesn't set up a flagpole to drive his subordinates to fight fiercely, he won't wear it.

In short, it is flashy, purely for the pursuit of good looks.

For Chu people, cavalry is extremely precious. In Chu State, those who can use cavalry purely as a guard of honor are definitely not ordinary people.

Furthermore,

When there is no absolutely clear enemy situation,

The gate of the county seat is closed as soon as it is said,

Completely disregarding the daily production and rest of the people inside and outside the county,

How come there is a meaning that the future generations will lead the convoy to pass through Jingjie?

Xue San rubbed his chin with his hand,

He was originally the first echelon to check if there was a chance to rush to the city gate, but now it seems that there is no way to rush to the city.

There are many soldiers on the city wall. Even if the city wall is not high, it is somewhat unrealistic to take the city with simple siege equipment under such a guarded posture.

But camping on the spot, building equipment, finding weak points, and attacking the city by traditional means is really too risky. It is impossible to say that the city is not broken, and reinforcements from the Chu people will arrive, forming a large encirclement for their own side.

"Go, go back and inform Uncle, and say that Yangcheng is heavily guarded and the city gates are closed, so you can't take it by force. Just tell me that I suggest that the soldiers and horses of the three groups should lurk on the spot and keep silent."

"Here!"

Dai immediately ran back.

Xue San pressed down on his body, squatted up, and began to stretch his legs, doing warm-up exercises.

The other subordinates around immediately squatted down and began to warm up.

They were trained by Xue San, so they are naturally no strangers to these movements.

Xue San saw this,

laughed and scolded:

"A bunch of jerks, do you want to eat farts?"

Others are a little unclear.

"Go away, spread out to the surroundings, and then look at the surrounding situation, leaving the two of them here to wait for Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will go inside and try to feel it himself later.

You want to go with me?

Do you want to kill Lao Tzu to death? "

An excellent assassin must have strong confidence in his own body skills, but if he is accompanied by a group of oil bottles, he must be caught blind.

These people, in fact, can be regarded as crawling out of the dead, but the problem is that there is still a big gap between their level and Xue San.

"There must be ghosts in this city."

Xue San was talking to himself while continuing to warm up.

If it is in other circumstances, or if it is someone else, it is enough to complete a job task, but the three children are different, and outsiders may not see it clearly, but people in the real inner circle know that the few people under Uncle Zheng In doing things, sir, you have great autonomy.

At the same time, Xue San has always had the attributes of Fuwa, and he brought back the head of King Fu back then.

Assassins often have an innate instinct for truly valuable targets.

However, just as Xue San finished warming up and was about to touch the corner of the city, a personal guard by the uncle ran up from behind:

"Mr. San, uncle has an order, stay where you are!"

Xue San asked suspiciously:

"What's the matter?"

………

"It's still like this."

Uncle Zheng really didn't know what to say.

Several large ships on my side leaned here after unloading soldiers. As a result, a Chu army with a size of two hundred people took the initiative to lean over in a small boat.

Pay attention, it's not sneaking over, but swaggering over while saying hello.

They actively stood on the boat and shouted, demanding that the boat ladder be thrown down.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Yan army on the boat threw down the ladder rope, and then the soldiers of the Chu army on the small boats began to climb onto the boat.

When one comes up, one is tied up, and the ones behind continue to come up and be tied up.

Faced with such wave after wave of voluntary offerings of heads, the soldiers of the Yan Army on the deck felt a little unreal.

In fact, it was the Chu army who misjudged the identities of these large ships, because the flags of the Qu family were still flying on the ships. Is it your own?

So, here they come.

After going up a batch, it turned out that the people who had gone up did not poke their heads out to say hello. The Chu soldiers who stayed on the small boat finally realized that something was wrong, but when a bow and crossbow protruded from the side of the big boat and aimed at them, they He also threw down his weapons wisely, surrendered and was captured, and all of them were caught.

Uncle Zheng, who was standing by the bank, felt ridiculous when he heard the news, but on the battlefield, such muddled things often happen.

Uncle Zheng returned to the boat, intending to check the situation.

As soon as I boarded the ship, I heard the report from my subordinates:

"Uncle, there is another boat coming over there."

"oh?"

Uncle Zheng walked to the side of the ship and found that there was indeed another ship coming from the opposite side, but that ship was supposed to be loaded with a lot of things, so it was slower, and it should be with the previous two ships.

Uncle Zheng glanced around and said:

"Detain these people to me."

"Here!"

The deck was cleaned quickly, and then the ship full of boxes finally approached.

The soldiers of the Yan army on the deck took the initiative to open the deck and dropped the rope, which can be said to have given them enough courtesy.

Ah Ming moved a chair and asked Uncle Zheng to sit on it and wait.

Not long after, a group of people came up.

The leader is actually a white-haired old man. The old man's body is quite strong, and he can climb up by himself holding the rope and stepping on the rope ladder without the help of others.

Beside the old man, there were still some men in armor, but these men were obviously not used to wearing armor on weekdays, and when they suddenly wore it, it was loose and loose, and they didn't look serious at all.

This group of people gave people a very greasy feeling. Even though the old man was very energetic, when he saw Uncle Zheng sitting there, his face immediately overflowed with that flattering smile.

In fact, there are people in the military who like to pull relationships and mix circles, and there are people like this in any industry;

But the problem is, the captives who were captured earlier, they still look like Lian Jiazi at least a little bit. Although the armor is a little messy, they can still slash people.

And the second batch came up, it seemed that they had never held a knife at all in their life.

The old man knelt down,

The crowd behind him also knelt down together:

"Slave, pay respects to nobleman Qu, and dare to ask, are you..."

The old man, this group of people, including the guards of the two ships they went ahead of, must really have misunderstood the person.

He eagerly leaned forward, thinking that he had bumped into Qu's fleet.

Although the Qu family lost the main force of the Qingluan Army at the foot of Yupan City in the early years, they also lost Qu Tiannan, the pillar of the family, and they were robbed of their brides on the day the princess bestowed their marriage and became a laughing stock among the nobles;

but,

The centipede is dead but not stiff;

Just looking at the fact that Qu's can directly oppress Liang Guo with the strength of a family and still have enough strength to breathe, one can see how deep this family's heritage is.

Behind the scenes, how to tease is one thing, but face to face, you have to bow your head.

Uncle Zheng smiled,

The group of people in front of them really... can't see the situation clearly.

However, it's really hard to blame them, this is within the scope of Gyeonggi, normal, who would have thought that there would be a fleet of Yan people here?

Uncle Zheng replied:

"So-and-so, Qu Peiluo."

"Ah, so it's the son-in-law... so it's General Zuo."

"See General Zuo."

"See General Zuo."

General Zuo is Qu Peiluo's general number, in fact, it is useless, because the imperial court confers this title, it will not give you a single soldier, and you, Qu Peiluo, can still only control the internal power of the Qu clan.

This is just a kind of compensation given by the court after the son-in-law failed.

"Who are you guys?"

Uncle Zheng asked.

"Return to General Zuo's words, Zhang's family in Old Shiyue County."

"The Zhang family?"

Uncle Zheng cast his gaze around.

For a while, He Chunlai, Siniang and the others were all recalling which noble family the Zhang family belonged to.

Even Ah Ming,

After a sip of wine,

Looking around, he also frowned slightly, pretending to be thinking.

The old man is not ashamed, because how could the young master of the Qu family, a small family like him who can't even go up the rank, know?

"General Zuo, the lintel of Zhang's family is low, so he can't get into General Zuo's eyes. However, Eunuch Zhang next to the king, Zhang Guan, is an old nephew."

"Oh,, are you from Zhang Gonggong's family?"

A smile appeared on the old man's face immediately, and a kind of pride could be seen vaguely,

road:

"Exactly, exactly."

"Eunuch Zhang, the relationship with Uncle Ben, cough, and General Ben is excellent."

"That's natural, that's natural. General Zuo is a real nobleman, a young hero, and his family nephew often mentions General Zuo in letters, saying that he admires General Zuo's demeanor."

In the officialdom, everyone carries the bridal sedan chair, so it is not easy to offend others.

Especially, for the servants.

Uncle Zheng fell into deep thought,

The Zhang family in front of me, oh, the Zhang family from Yue County, no wonder it looks so unreliable. Although Uncle Zheng disdains to agree with the statement that nobles are inherently noble, but families with more than three generations of wealth or hundreds of years of inheritance Well, this person has been a master for a long time, and he does have a "celestial spirit", which is the so-called... aristocratic temperament.

Zhang Guan should be the eunuch of the state of Chu. Since he is sadly about to become an eunuch, it is obvious that the Zhang family should have been miserable ten or twenty years ago.

Generally, when there is no other way out, who would take a stab at his job?

Therefore, as that Eunuch Zhang gradually got up, the Zhang Family in Yuexian County also gradually gained some recognition.

The old man bowed his knees in front of him because he was under the banner of the Qu family, but on the boundary of Yue County, he should be able to walk sideways.

but,

If he finds out his true identity later,

It should be a hundred times more frightening than seeing the young patriarch of the Qu clan.

With that in mind,

A smile appeared on the corner of Uncle Zheng's mouth.

The old man saw Uncle Zheng smiling, but he got it wrong.

Opened the mouth and said:

"General Zuo, are you also here to defend the king?"

Uncle Zheng's breathing suddenly became short, and his body froze immediately.

Deep in his heart, a huge wave has already set off.

but,

Uncle Zheng still forcibly suppressed his emotional fluctuations,

With a very easy-going "hmm\

,"road;

"You too?"

"So that General Zuo knows that although my Zhang family is not in the ranks, my Zhang family is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and the world can learn from it. This time, the nephew sent a letter, calling the old man to dissipate the family wealth and recruit brave men to come to defend the king. Up.

hehe,

There is also a little bit of careful thought, that is, the king can see our loyalty, and can help my Zhang family raise the rank, the lowest, the lowest is fine. "

The old man obviously really thought that his nephew really had a good relationship with the young master of the Qu family, so he dared to say such "heartfelt" words.

Uncle Zheng swallowed, his hands were already trembling a little,

but,

Still opened the mouth and said:

"This general is naturally here to defend His Majesty."

"Then, please ask General Zuo to allow me to meet the king together. My family nephew must be very grateful to General Zuo. My Zhang family in Yuexian County will also follow Qu's example in the future."

Uncle Zheng nodded and said:

"It's easy to say, easy to say, this is what the general should do. It's just that the general still has some things to unload here, and it will take some time."

"Me too, me too. My ship is full of tributes for the king. Of course, General Zuo also has a share."

"If Mr. Zhang wants to go with this general, we have to wait a little longer, but we can let the tribute go first."

"Extremely, extremely, anyway, this place is not too far from Juyangcheng, let the people below... ahhhhhhhhhhh..."

Uncle Zheng stretched out his hand to grab the old man's neck, and he was lifted up. He looked at Uncle Zheng who was pinching him with horror and pain.

previously,

Why are you still going around in circles,

He didn't want to use force directly, because Uncle Zheng didn't want to take risks. Although this wave of people in front of him didn't look like one, who knew if he would encounter the kind of reckless Chu State who was really "loyal to the king and patriotic" deep down in his heart?

Therefore, Uncle Zheng was patient, and started to talk slowly, and now, the trick has come out.

set out,

a surprise,

one,

Big surprise!

this moment,

Uncle Zheng even had a kind of cold arrows and stone throws he suffered on the battlefield before, all of which were to save his character, all for the sake of his character explosion at this time!

"Regent, are you occupying Yangcheng?"

The old man, obviously not one who can stand up to a big scene, was frightened by Uncle Zheng's aura, and even lost control immediately.

After all, it is a small family that was forcibly promoted by the eunuch clan, so it can't get on the stage.

Uncle Zheng frowned slightly and threw it on the ground.

He Chunlai immediately drew the knife and laid it across the old man's neck.

"Yes, yes, yes, the King's Luanjia is in Juyang City. It was my nephew who wrote to me."

The members of the Zhang family behind the old man immediately nodded in agreement, confirming the old man's words.

"Heh...hehehe...hahahahahaha..."

Uncle Zheng just laughed lightly at first, and then laughed out loud.

immediately,

Uncle Zheng stopped speaking instantly,

Slightly condensed eyes scanned the surroundings,

ordered:

"Benbo's military order was passed on, ordering Jin Shuke, Gou Moli, and Fan Li to surround Yangcheng with three troops.

Unfurl the black dragon flag and the 'Zheng' flag, and inform my uncle, let him wait for a while, or make preparations;

his sister-in-law,

come to him

Greetings! "
