"Hiss...it hurts...it hurts..."
Zheng Fan was sitting on a chair, his armor and lining had been taken off, and Xue San was busy giving him a homemade cotton swab Apply burn medicine.
There were blisters on the chest and the inner side of his right arm. The problem was not serious. After all, Fan Li's armor was hot at the time, but the flame had been extinguished for some time.
At least,
I didn’t bake myself.
But after being "baked" like this, the sour and refreshing taste is really hard to describe.
Fan Li was like a child who had done something wrong. He stood aside and kept flapping his hands.
"My Lord, the problem is not bad. My medicine is very good and should not leave any scars. Don't worry, Lord."
Zheng Fan could only nod his head when he heard this. Said:
"Find me some looser clothes."
"Okay, my lord."
Xue San went to look for clothes. , A Ming was sitting opposite, drinking blood. He deliberately didn't change his clothes. There was a hole in his chest, indicating that he had blocked the arrow from the leader before.
Fan Li wanted to find a bench to sit on, but he hesitated.
But Zheng Fan didn’t blame him. Although this stupid guy almost roasted himself, he was still eager to be a savior after all, and he really carried himself back.
On the battlefield, people should not be too pretentious. A burn of this degree is much better than being hit by a knife or an arrow.
Actually, General Zheng knew one thing well, that is, when he was being "roasted", he who was supposed to be sleeping suddenly woke up and took over his body again.
Damn,
He really is a kind father and a filial son.
But General Zheng can only turn a blind eye to this. After all, as a father, you can't force your son to protect you and "anaesthetize" you;
No father would protect his children from danger, but he did the exact opposite. He would not think of his son on weekdays, but would immediately call him if there was any danger.
But no matter what, last night’s night attack was extremely successful.
Liang Cheng’s control over details is truly superb.
It can be said that in terms of tactical details, the barbarian generals on the opposite side were tortured by Liang Cheng.
It also made Zheng Fan understand one thing, that is, there is no pure defense and offense in the absolute sense. It does not mean that if you defend the city, you have to huddle in the city and be beaten.
"Your Majesty, the barbarian troops that came yesterday have withdrawn, no, they were broken up." Liang Cheng came in to report.
"Oh."
Zheng Fan nodded.
The results of last night's battle, including the burning of the camp and the storming of the camp, actually caused limited damage to the savages. The more damage was caused by the savages killing and trampling on each other after the camp was in chaos.
"Also, the Lord last nightThe one who killed him should be the opponent's general, maybe a captain of ten thousand men. ”
First of all, that person’s armor is much better than that of ordinary savages. Secondly, the savage soldiers and horses immediately withdrew, which means that the soldiers and horses should have fallen into a leaderless state. If If the opponent's general is still there, the correct choice should be to camp again at a farther and safer place and maintain surveillance of Snow Customs.
But now, the savages on the outside of Snow Customs are riding. They have all been withdrawn, which means that the command system of the troops has been paralyzed.
Hearing the news, Zheng Fan was stunned for a moment and said:
"Okay. What? "
"Not sure, but we think he is dead, so he is dead. ”
“This makes sense. ”
Zheng Fan nodded. The battlefield is so big. It stretches from Wangjiang to Xuehaiguan, stretching for hundreds of miles. I said here that I killed the barbarian general. Even if you, Marquis of Jingnan, don’t do it again. You know everything, is it possible that you can come and check it out at this time?
Besides, bragging is normal in the military, as long as you win the battle, you are not the kind of person who lies about losing the battle? In return for victory, even if the matter is exposed in the future, the superiors will not pursue anything. After all, the battlefield is so chaotic.
And there are so many savage tribes. In order to win over many tribes, the savage king also generously rewards officials. Although the number of husband captains is not as high as that of the captains of the Yan Kingdom, there are still many.
In short, the current situation has indeed been temporarily solved, and there will be many savages in Kendong in the future. The soldiers and horses arrived, and they were definitely many times more numerous than our own, but at least for now we had a few more days of breathing space.
"My lord, my subordinates have sent people outside. The forests are being cut down and burned, and at the same time some of the fortifications outside the city have to be repaired. "
"Well, leave this matter to Xue San. ”
One time is enough for a trick. Savages are not fools, and they cannot fall for you again and again. In war, you have to return to the extremely primitive way of close combat.
"Yes. By the way, also, although the main force of the savages is now in the Jin Kingdom, the main threat we face does come from the south, but it is not that there are no savages in the snowy fields to the north, my subordinates are worried..."
The Sheng Le Army had less than 10,000 soldiers and horses defending the city. Even including the male slaves of the Jin Dynasty who were issued with weapons, the number was actually not that rich.
Facing a one-sided offensive. , that’s okay, after all, the area of the city wall is fixed, and everyone can just grind it out slowly, but if there are savages attacking from the north, Sheng Le’s army will definitely feel very uncomfortable if they are attacked from both sides.
Drinking blood on the side. A Ming raised his eyebrows slightly,
This is a strategic question, and A Cheng actually came to ask the Lord specifically.
This means that, to a certain extent, the Lord has already. Replaced the original role of the blind man in the team.
"Lord, Yi.The service is here, you can try it. "
Xue San sent clothes.
Zheng Fan put the clothes on his body and said at the same time:
"Call the eldest prince over. "
"Yes. "
Not long after, the eldest prince was summoned. After seeing Zheng Fan, he knelt down on one knee and saluted without hesitation:
"I will see you, General Zheng! "
The eldest prince really has nothing to say in this regard.
Zheng Fan even feels that even if the eldest prince succeeds to the throne in the future, this great Yan will not be too bad.< /p>
It's a pity that I was bound to the Sixth Prince early, just like I was bound to Tian Wujing, and you can't change the ship even if you want to.
"Your Highness, I have a military order for you. ”
Zheng Fan didn’t show any pretense anymore and got up to help the eldest prince to do the show “even if he doesn’t have to”.
The situation seems to have just been solved, but the real crisis is , In fact, it’s not far away, so why should you continue to be pretentious?
“Please tell me, General, Wujiang will fight to the death to complete it! ”
The eldest prince began to admire Zheng Fan’s ability to lead troops in battle.
When a man in the army admires your ability to fight, There are many words, but it is easy to say too much.
At least, the eldest prince felt that he could not do that golden cicada escape from the shell and attack the snow customs, because this kind of skill in using military force is amazing.
The eldest prince even felt a little regretful in his heart. If Zheng Fan had not been promoted by Xiaoliu at the beginning, but had been promoted by his own disciple, then wouldn't it be...
"Your Highness, I will give you 800 cavalry, led by Jin Shuke. He will be the deputy and you will be the leader. I order you two to go north to the Snow Customs to convey greetings from me, Dayan, to the Snowfield tribe. "
The eldest prince immediately understood Zheng Fan's intention and said directly:
"General, do you want me to go to Xueyuan as the prince? "
"Yes. Go and tell the tribes in the snow plains that our army of Dayan has defeated the army of their barbarian king and has now recaptured the Snow Pass. Now, the soldiers and horses of Dayan are busy annihilating the remaining barbarians scattered in the Jin Kingdom. .
Order them to abide by themselves and not make mistakes, otherwise when the cleanup in Jin is completed, our Dayan cavalry will come out of the snowy customs and exterminate their entire clan!
Probably, that’s what it means. The specific wording, how to scare them, how to appease them, how to be a good person or a bad person, His Highness can decide by himself.
This general has only one request,
That is to prevent the savages north of Xueguan from attacking us from the north in a short period of time. "
The eldest prince hesitated.
"What, His Highness is afraid? "
"The general is not afraid of death, but he is worried that he will not be able to fulfill the general's trust. Now our army is stationed at Snow Customs. Although we defeated a barbarian army last night,But I think it won't take two or three days before the savage army will rush here.
If General Mo is unable to complete the general's mission, Xue Customs will definitely be attacked from both sides..."
"Your Highness, there is no need to worry, I believe that Your Highness can handle this matter well. , If you are bold, you can be a little bolder, and your courage can be broader.
Nowadays, the most loyal tribesmen and horses of the direct lineage to the Savage King have already followed the Savage King into the country. Nowadays, many of those on the snowfield have joined later and even some are still waiting and watching. .
Your Highness can go and promise the leader of their tribe that I, the Emperor of Dayan, will grant them the title of Savage King. His Majesty can spread the title of Savage King to the southeast, northwest, and middle. ”
This is actually very outrageous.
And he said this to a prince. In other countries, General Zheng’s head would have been chopped off immediately. Come down and play football.
But nowadays in the Yan Kingdom, Emperor Yan is an open-minded person. He doesn’t care about the imaginary, he only cares about the reality. He even didn’t care about Zheng Fan’s abandonment of his third son. It can be treated as if it didn't happen. This little overstep is just a matter of urgency. Even if Emperor Yan knows about it in the future, it will be understandable.
Besides, the eldest prince is such a person. No matter whether he is pretending or not, he has always been the image of a down-to-earth and sincere military prince. This person is more pragmatic.
"Cell them the title of king? ”
This is the prince in the army, and he was stunned by General Zheng’s tone.
The surname of Dayan is Marquis, and the prince is crowned king as usual, but also It is limited to one dynasty. If the prince does not have great achievements, after the death of his father and one of his brothers succeeds to the throne, according to the tradition of the Yan Kingdom, the princes who are crowned kings will submit a letter to request that the king's title be removed for the sake of national affairs.
For this reason, Dayan's school captains were overrun, but Wang Jue, that is the true son of gold.
That's why the Emperor of Yan granted Situ Yu, the son of Situ Lei, the title of Prince Cheng. Everyone was shocked, thinking that Emperor Yan was so generous.
Zheng Fan stretched out his hand,
but because of the burns on his body, he took a breath in pain, < /p>
The eldest prince hesitated for a moment,
finally lowered his head,
leaned forward,
to make it more convenient for Zheng Fan He put his hand on his shoulder and patted him.
"Your Highness, what are you afraid of if you grant them the title of king now? Just grant it to them. If you can frighten those tribes that still have soldiers and horses in them. As long as they don't go south to attack us.
When we eat up all the main force of these barbarians in the Jin region,
Three Jin regions,
the entire snowfield,
Isn’t it our Dayan that has the final say?
They said that Dayan has made them king, so we just don’t admit it.
If you really don’t accept it, fine,
Let their leader go to Beijing in person. Go to your Majesty to file a complaint, hehe. ”
