All around, there were running soldiers and knights from the Zhenbei Army who were chasing them. Some soldiers knelt down and begged for surrender, but what was waiting for them was a merciless blow from the saber.
These are Li Fusheng’s soldiers and horses, and they are the soldiers and horses of a madman. They have become accustomed to this merciless execution method, and Li Fusheng’s red eyes are not a true reflection of their hearts.
However, Zheng Fan doesn't care about these. He is too lazy to care. War is so cold-blooded and cruel. Moreover, he also knows that as an army that uses blitzkrieg to cross the opponent's defense line and go straight into the hinterland. For them, capturing prisoners was too extravagant, and they simply did not have the energy to arrange and control them.
And tomorrow, Li Fusheng and his troops will continue to move south, and it is impossible to bring these burdens with them.
However, ordinary soldiers are ordinary soldiers, but the enemy's generals and nobles are definitely not among the burdens.
It’s just that because of the special nature of this army, all of them seemed to have been infected by the general and turned into bloodthirsty lunatics, so Zheng Fan was given the opportunity to pick up the slack.
Zheng Fan reached out and pulled off the jade pendant from Zu Dongcheng's waist.
In his previous life, Zheng Fan didn't like playing with jade and didn't do much research on jade. However, when he woke up in this world in this life, he often encountered some such things.
Six Niang has great experience in this aspect. Every time she finishes her sewing work, she always has a few words to chat with her.
However, even for Zheng Fan, a jade layman, he could see how valuable it was.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Zheng Fan got up, and just then a group of knights rushed past Zheng Fan. After they left, Zheng Fan saw a knight turning back. Who else could it be if it wasn't Liang Cheng?
Liang Cheng's body was covered in blood, but judging from its color, it should have been from someone else. This guy's blood was black.
"My lord."
"Are you having fun?"
Liang Cheng smiled implicitly.
Zheng Fan noticed that Liang Cheng's armor was damaged in many places. Apparently, he also suffered a lot of damage and danger when he broke through the formation with him.
However, Liang Cheng's survivability on the battlefield can still be trusted. If nothing else is mentioned, his own zombie bloodline is equivalent to a "blood lock".
"Catch a tongue for me, I think it's a big fish."
Zheng Fan pointed at Zu Dongcheng, who was unconscious next to him.
"Okay."
Liang Cheng continued to ride away.
About a quarter of an hour later, Liang Cheng came back from riding, with the horse in front of him. There was a bloody soldier on top.
Catching a fleeing soldier now is no different from catching a wild goat in the wild, except that as the Zhenbei Army's pursuit area expands, you have to run a longer distance if you want to catch another live sheep.
"Plop!"
The soldier was thrown off his horse by Liang Cheng and fell to the ground.
"Don't kill me, please, don't kill me, don't kill me..."
This soldier was frightened to death.
Judging from his relatively young appearance, it must be his first time on the battlefield. Unfortunately, there is no step-by-step process, and he directly confronts the Zhenbei Army, and he fights against the Zhenbei Army. The craziest town among the six Jun towns.
"Don't be afraid, I won't kill you. Tell me, who is he?"
Zheng Fan pointed at Zu Dongcheng.
The soldier raised his head and looked at Zu Dongcheng, stunned for a moment.
Obviously, he knew him, and even more obviously, he was hesitating whether to answer.
At this moment, Liang Cheng's knife was placed directly on the soldier's neck, and the cold touch made him and the God of Death almost greet each other against the mirror.
"He, he is General Zu."
"General Zu?"
"The Major General of the Zu Family Army."
"Zu Zhuming's son?" Zheng Fan asked.
Zheng Fan, the ancestral army, knew about it, and he was also one of the troops that was previously transferred to the north.
“Tsk, tsk.”
Zheng Shoubei felt very happy. He was really unlucky. In his previous life, he was always blocked from opening a comic studio.
This time You can get credit wherever you go in your life.
This is the correct way to open life.
"The Ancestral Army, the military formation at the front, is it the Ancestral Army?" Zheng Fan asked.
"Yes, yes."
"Oh, okay, let's go."
"Huh?" This soldier was a little surprised.
Liang Cheng slapped the opponent on the back with the back of his knife and said:
"Get out."
The soldier immediately rolled and crawled away in excitement. .
Looking at his excited movements and his excited expression, maybe, happiness is that simple.
It was so simple that as soon as this guy ran out a few dozen meters, a knight from the Northern Suppression Army came over on horseback and chopped him down with a knife.
"Your Majesty has made great achievements again." Liang Cheng congratulated.
“It’s not bad.”
“The Zu family army does have some skills. If the Zhenbei Army was not the one who rushed into the formation earlier, but other troops wanted to overwhelm their formation, It's really difficult."
"What do you think of the Zhenbei Army?"
Liang Cheng hesitated and replied:
"Like a wolf and a tiger. ."
"Yes."
Zheng Fan sighed.
"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, our future troops will not be inferior to those of the Zhenbei Army."
"I am confident of this."
p>
Zheng Fan patted the face of Zu Dongcheng who was unconscious and said:
"Carry it up."
Liang Cheng immediately bent down and lifted Zu Dongcheng carry onon his own shoulders.
The two held the horses and began to walk back.
In front, where the previous charge was, there were Zhenbei soldiers treating the injured Pao Ze.
Compared to the results of the battle, these battle losses are really nothing, and there is no sad atmosphere permeating the battlefield.
Everyone had smiles on their faces, even the injured soldiers kept laughing and cursing something.
The wind and sand in the desert are strong enough to polish off most of the excess impurities, including the emotion of separation between life and death. Pao Ze who died in battle was just one step ahead of him, so there was nothing to be sad about.
The longer you stay in contact, the more you will discover the atmosphere within this army.
They are very pure, so pure that it is scary.
But the blind man once teased that after they conquered the beautiful country of Daqian, would they also become corrupted along with it?
After they became corrupt, Zheng Fan had his own independent way out.
You don’t necessarily have to be determined to rebel, but you must at least seek your own independence. As a time traveler, struggling not to kowtow to others is not too much, right?
However, looking at the Zhenbei Army at this time, Zheng Fan suddenly felt a feeling that it would be great if they could always be so pure.
After defeating the Qian Kingdom, then attack the Jin Kingdom. After defeating the Jin Kingdom, destroy the Chu Kingdom. After unifying the east, then sweep across the desert to destroy the royal court and then send troops to the west.
Huh...
No, if this is really the case, wouldn't I have to be Emperor Yan's dog all the time?
"My lord, there is another way."
"Hey, have you learned skills from a blind man?"
"No, it's just that my subordinate happens to be able to Feel the emotion in the Lord's heart."
"Well, what else can you do?"
"There is a princess in Zhenbeihou."
"I have seen a tigress."
"How does it look like?" Liang Cheng asked.
"It looks good."
"If the Lord is not willing to destroy them, he can accept them."
"You are too idealistic. No matter how delicious other people’s food is, it’s still other people’s food, and it’s not as delicious as your own food.”
But at this time,
There was a person sitting in front.
The person was covered in blood, as if he had been smeared with layers of red paint, which was so greasy that it was unbearable.
But he was sitting alone in a pool of blood.
There was a plate of peanuts and dried meat in front of him. There was no wine, but these side dishes were just on his fingertips. The blood dripping down was sent to his mouth one by one.
It seemed that the place he was sitting was not the battlefield where he had just fought, but a small teahouse in the city.
However,
No matter how the environment changes,
heThe mood is so comfortable and calm.
Just like an old grandfather who likes to sit on the threshold and bask in the sun.
"I feel a little sick." Zheng Fan said.
"I miss it a little bit." Liang Cheng said.
Li Fusheng seemed to have noticed Zheng Fan and Liang Cheng, and shouted:
"Zheng Shoubei, I really like your general."
< p>This is my second confession today.Zheng Fan really wanted to make things happen for both of them, but Zheng Fan knew that Liang Cheng would not leave him.
If you lose yourself and are no longer by your side, you can't watch other demon kings growing in strength step by step while you remain still, right?
Even the Demon King cannot accept this kind of torture.
Li Fusheng seems too lazy to continue this request, because this kind of thing is not authentic in the first place, and his own intention is released. If Liang Cheng is interested in this, it is difficult to say it openly, but secretly They will definitely come to him, and when that happens, they can do it by themselves, and they will be able to get him back.
"I have already ordered my sons to collect the flags and heads of the Qian army and bring them back to Chuzhou City later. Tell me, it's just a city, it's just a little bigger. Why does Zhao Jiulang value it so much if there are more people?”
“Master Zaifu has a gap in his heart, how could it be me...”
“Speaking like a human being.”
p>"Report to your lord, because for a long time in the future, our Yan soldiers and horses will only be stationed in the big city."
"Why?"
"Because The land of Qian Kingdom is too large and the population of Qian Kingdom is also too large. Even if Qian Kingdom is conquered, the area that I, Dayan, can control will be very limited for a long time. Therefore, it is natural to station in a big city. The best choice. Therefore, it is extremely important to keep them safe."
"Okay, I shouldn't ask this. I can't understand it anyway. I just want someone to kill."
p>Li Fusheng pointed at Zu Dongcheng on Liang Cheng's back and asked:
"Who is he?"
"The major general of the Zu family."
"From the ancestral family? There is still something."
Obviously, the work of inquiring about battlefield news has begun, and Li Fusheng has also been summarized.
This "something" is obviously a good evaluation.
After all, the military formation formed by the Ancestral Family Army is indeed the strongest among the three formations, and the combat effectiveness of the Ancestral Family Army is indeed not bad.
But this is good, compared to the level of Qian Guo.
Compared with the barbarians, the gap is a bit big. The barbarians sometimes seem docile, but when they are really crazy, they will really risk their lives with you without hesitation.
Li Fusheng himself has personally experienced this situation several times in which he died in battle until the last person in his clan was killed.
"Zheng Shoubei has made another great contribution." Li Fusheng smiled, but this smile was set off by the blood on his face.Next, it seems a little not so friendly.
Zheng Fan held up his hands and said:
"This is what my subordinates should do."
"Then please ask Zheng Shoubei to take this person into custody. His father There are still 50,000 troops in the north, so it is unlikely that they will have any effect."
"It may be difficult to persuade his father to surrender."
In Zheng Fan's opinion. , these big shots rarely get delayed by personal affairs, such as Tian Wujing, such as Emperor Yan.
Li Fusheng shook his head, grabbed a small handful of peanuts and threw it into his mouth,
said:
“It’s okay to chop his son before the battle to humiliate him. Quite interesting."
"..." Zheng Fan.
……
In Chuzhou City, people are panicking.
Master Wang is here.
This is something that everyone in the city knows at this time, from the powerful people who have not had their homes confiscated and exterminated to the traffickers and lackeys.
However, when the Yan people began to distribute food, there were still an extremely large number of people in Chuzhou City who came to receive food.
In contrast, the powerful are much more reserved.
Even the officials in the yamen were still worrying about their own affairs at this time.
At this time,
Blind Bei and an old man were walking slowly on the wall of Chuzhou City.
This is a majestic and towering city wall. As the capital of Chuzhou City, it naturally cannot be shabby.
But this city wall did not have any blocking effect on the day the Yan people came in.
Blind Bei pointed to the point below where food was being distributed,
and said:
"What do you think of Mr. Wen's move?"
Master Wen, Wen Sutong, is the nominally highest official in Chuzhou City at this time.
Yesterday, it was Blind Bei who personally led people to his mansion, ordered a knife to be placed on the necks of his tribesmen, and forced the old man to wear an official hat.
Wen Sutong shook his head. At this time, he didn’t know whether he let go or became fearless. He directly answered the blind man who made him feel extremely disgusting,
said:
"The fool serves the people."
Blind Man Bei nodded, not angry, but echoed:
"Of course."
"Mr. Bei Since they know that being kind to the common people will get nothing at all, even if they know that the food is distributed by the Yan people, even if they know that the food is stored by the noble families, they still cannot stand with the Yan people.
As long as the wealthy nobles in the city come out to incite them, they will still express their resentment towards the Yan people and regard them as Yan dogs."
"I know this."
p>"Since you know, why do you still do this?"
"There is too much food."
"..." Wen Sutong.
"Mr. Wen, there are probably many people in the yamen writing self-defense notes right now, right?"
"So what?"
"It's nothing, I just think, Wen An old man’s perspective can actually take a longer view.”
“What does it mean to be longer-term?”
“Mr. Wen must be feeling very painful now. First, he is concerned about his future legacy. Comment, the second is to care about the safety of one's own relatives."
"Haha."
"Actually, this is not contradictory at all, just like what Mr. Wen said before. He said that the people of Qian State who are robbing and taking the food distributed by our soldiers in Dayan will not give up on our Dayan because of this, because the fool is the people."
"Mr. Bei, please make an appointment with me. "What do you want to say when you come out?"
"I mean, Mr. Wen, how many of the descendants who will read Qingshi in the future are not stupid?"
"Who can have insight into what will happen in future generations?"
"Then look forward. Emperor Taizu of your country bullied orphans and widowed mothers, and seized the country for injustice. However, this hindered the Zhao family's ability to survive today. Has the official status of the Qian Kingdom been restored?
No, not at all. The Zhao family and the official family of the Zhao family are still the kings and fathers of you scholars, and you are still his ministers. ”
"Mr. Bei means..."
"If Dayan can subvert the Qian Kingdom and use Yan to conquer it, who will care about your decision today, Mr. Wen?"
"Mr. Bei, this is a fallacy."
"I never think that what I say is a wise saying. I just want to relieve Mr. Wen's boredom. I just don't know, Wen "Sir, you want to come here later,"
Is it the Yan Army or the Qian Army?"
Wen Sutong did not answer.
"I appreciate Mr. Wen's sincerity."
"I didn't say anything."
"If you don't say you are a soldier, you are already a soldier." Such an attitude, Mr. Wen, you are about to enter the grave anyway, so now you are thinking about your family. Your grandchildren are still very young."
"Mr. Bei, are you threatening me?"
The blind Bei took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Wen Sutong.
Wen Sutong took the scroll and opened it. After seeing the words on the scroll, his whole body began to twitch with anger,
"This...you...how dare you... You actually..."
This scroll is a notice of peace of the people, issued by Wen Sutong as the "Jiedu Envoy".
The contents of Anmin are all the same, but in addition to Anmin, Wen Sutong also used Wen Sutong's tone to criticize a series of officials, officials, officials, etc., how to violate taboos, and even rise When it came to the Qian Kingdom, Taizu's country was not upright, so the Ji family deserved the height of replacing the Zhao family as the co-owners of Yan and Qian.
"This is a frame-up! This is a frame-up!"
Wen Sutong shouted.
"Yes,This is frame-up, this is frame-up, this is what I wrote, and I can vouch for you, Mr. Wen.
But who believes it?
After all, Mr. Wen, since you put the hat on your head, do you still want to take it off yourself?
This notice to calm the people has been issued today, not only in Chuzhou City, but also in the countryside and villages.
Mr. Wen, you have no way out. Even if you are willing to shoulder all the blame alone, your family will definitely not be able to save it.
Although the Zhao Guan family always talks about being kind to scholar-bureaucrats, you have to weigh these things in your heart. Can you let your Wen family go? "
"What on earth do you want to say. "
"It's just a cliché. Since there is no way out, just move forward honestly. With your status and the fact that you are the first one, I will naturally set you up as a role model. , it is reasonable for him to join our imperial court as a minister in the future.
It’s a good time for you, otherwise if you wait until those husbands also surrender, their qualifications and status will be much higher than yours. "
"Haha, hahaha..."
Wen Sutong, who was still angry before, suddenly laughed.
Blind Bei stood there silently, He said nothing.
Wen Sutong was chosen by Blind Bei. Since he was chosen, there must be a reason for choosing him.
“I have one condition. ”
“You are not qualified to impose conditions. "
"You..."
"You can say some cruel words, but it is meaningless because you are not willing to destroy your entire clan, and I have the ability to destroy your entire clan. , so you don’t have any qualifications to negotiate terms with me, do you understand? "
"The old man has a request. "
" Please tell me, I will definitely tell my master, who will then write to the court. "
"My request does not need to be submitted to the court. I have always been curious about what kind of person can actually make Mr. Bei recognize you as your master. "
"The Lord is a hidden dragon in the abyss. ”
“This is a bit taboo. ”
“Yeah. "
"My request, I have a granddaughter who is sixteen years old. "
"My master doesn't like..."
What the blind man wants to say is that his master doesn't like girls who are too young.
But Wen Sutong But he said first: "No, I don't want to compete with your master, and my granddaughter is not beautiful. "
"That is? ”
“And you. ”
Silence,
A brief silence,
The blind man smiled,
pointed to his eyes and said:
“I’m blind. "
Wen Sutong patted his thigh and said:
"Isn't it just right? ”
