I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 517
Zhanyao Pass, as the name suggests, is a bloody place that the Wen Dynasty imposed on the northwest demon country.

The fact is exactly the same. Zhanyaoguan is a military city, ten miles long from east to west, eight miles wide from north to south, and there are many sub-forts and forts that stretch out from the main city.

In the early years of the Wen Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were stationed here all the year round, and monster corpses were often everywhere outside the city, bloody and bloody. Until now, because of the killings in the past, there is an oasis in this vast western border.

Song Mu and the others finally arrived here after traveling in the desert for several days. Looking up at the magnificent city in front of them, they couldn't help showing some awe.

When Song Mu came to the land of the western border, he did not see this city, but he knew that apart from the magnificent pass city in front of him, there are six military cities of the same size standing in the western border. .

Every year during the war, countless soldiers marched from these fortresses, and this place also became the rear fortress of the war legions of the Wen Dynasty.

There are also common people living in the military city, but most of them are family members of the army, and some of the city's miscellaneous servants are taken care of by exiled prisoners.

After Song Mu led the team into the city, he couldn't see the noise that should have been in the past city. The streets were solemn, and he could only see groups of soldiers walking in line. .

"The city lord of the Yaozhan Pass is the great Confucian Luo Yan. I heard that this lord governs the army very strictly, and the army discipline of the Yaozhan Pass is the worst in the entire western frontier."

Song Mu heard the explanation from Lord Dog next to him, so he nodded his head this time, and he has a good impression of this city. Since the military discipline is strict, the combat effectiveness of the army here must be considerable.

At present, Song Mu and other sergeants in Xiguan were led to a school yard to rest and settle down.

Song Mu also looked in here. At this moment, there were quite a few soldiers gathered in the school field barracks, but at most a dozen people gathered together. Looking at their slightly different armors, it was obvious that they were not soldiers from the same city.

When I saw Song Mu's team coming in, there were also the military lieutenants who came up to say hello to Lord Dog. They were all middle-aged lieutenants, and they all seemed to be quite familiar with Lord Dog.

Song Mu also bowed to them, but just led the team to live in the barracks first, and then reported to the officer of the school field.

When registering in the military official's room, the military official even raised his head to look at Song Mu when he heard about the men and horses in Zhenxiguan, his face seemed rather surprised.

"It turned out to be the general from Zhenxiguan, but how do you look at it?"

At this time, a stout man next to him took a few glances at Song Mu. He saw that Song Mu was tall and burly, but he had a refined temperament, so he asked with his hands clasped.

"In the Song and Qing Dynasties, I was transferred to Zhenxiguan a few months ago."

Song Mu clasped his hands and explained briefly, but the other party had a smile on his face and said to Song Mu at this moment.

"So that's the case. I also said that after Vice General Lin retired from the army due to serious injuries, which general will bring the army from Xiguan to the competition this year, and Mao Sheng will be promoted in the third and upper pass. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

Song Mu also quickly bowed his hands, seeing that the formalities were completed, he also bowed his hands and turned his head to leave, but just after leaving the door, Mao Sheng chased after him, and said to Song Mu at this moment.

"I've offended General Song. Mao is also leading a team to participate in the competition this time. I wonder how he is preparing for Zhenxiguan this time?"

Song Mu was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the other party, while Mao Sheng continued to speak with a smile.

"I just heard that this competition is a bit different, so I want to ask General Song if he knows, and what is his plan?"

Song Mu paused when he heard this, but he said calmly with his hands clasped.

"But General Mao was disappointed. Mr. Song is just here for the first time, and he really didn't make any plans. Now the team is practicing indiscriminately."

But Mao Sheng waved his hand with a smile, looking at Song Mu at this moment and said with a smile.

"General Song's words are wrong. Wuben, the army of Xiguan, you are at the first pass. Needless to say, the strength of a military lieutenant, and the strength of a scholar lieutenant must not be underestimated. Even General Song is a Jinshi at such a young age, and General Wang is also Being able to send you to lead the team must have some skills."

Saying this, his expression towards Song Mu became even more flickering, as if he had other intentions.

Song Mu was also puzzled by the other party's scorching eyes. He was about to ask questions, but the other party handed over to Song Mu. He only said that he was looking for a chance to compete, and then left in a hurry under the pretext of having something to do.

Seeing this situation, Song Mu was also surprised at the moment. He was a little confused at the moment, but he didn't care too much, and went directly to the barracks.

When passing by the school field, there were teams of lieutenants practicing, and there were bursts of literary power fluctuations inside, and it took a while to see the chaos on the field bombarded by literary power.

Song Mu also turned his head to look around, and saw that these lieutenants had firm expressions, calm breaths, and excellent skills in cooperating with the attack methods, so he nodded silently at this moment.

There is a reason for such a strong army, the frontier army of the western frontier has always been known for its bravery.

Right now Song Mu was about to leave, but he suddenly heard a cry from far away.

The voice actually called out his own words, causing Song Mu to pause suddenly at this moment, and when he looked quickly, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

It was actually Fu Zefeng who studied in Jizhou Prefecture back then.

Although the other party is still a scholar, he is quite burly, wearing a suit of armor and walking towards Song Mu quickly.

"It really is Jingzhao, no...now I should call you..."

Fu Zefeng walked forward with a smile on his face, but Song Mu quickly reached out to stop him, and then quickly whispered the reason.

Knowing that Song Mu is now joining the army under a pseudonym, Fu Zefeng also gave a sudden pause on his face, and then nodded very seriously.

"Song... Don't worry, General, I know the seriousness of this matter, and I will never share a word with others."

Saying this, Fu Zefeng even raised his hand to swear, but Song Mu pulled it down with a smile, then looked around, and then found an inconspicuous place to talk to Fu Zefeng.

Meeting an old acquaintance from afar, Song Mu would naturally not be so indifferent.

After talking with Fu Zefeng, Song Mu found out that the other party was also a lieutenant who came to participate in this competition. He has served in the western frontier army for four years now, and his strength has reached the peak of a scholar. After this, Also prepare to choose an opportunity to take part in the military imperial examination and enter the realm of Juren.

Fu Zefeng was pleasantly surprised by Song Mu's appearance in the western frontier army, and was even more surprised when he learned that Song Mu brought an army to participate in the competition. Song Mu explained briefly, and Fu Zefeng also sighed slightly and said .

"Although I don't have much contact with Mr. Fengming, but Mr. Fengming left like this, Brother Song, I'm sorry."

Song Mu waved his hand and just spoke at the moment.

"Don't talk about that, Senior Brother Fu, I don't know if there is any change in this martial arts competition?"

Song Mu also thought of the tone of Mao Sheng's speech just now, and asked now.

Hearing Song Mu's question, Fu Zefeng was slightly taken aback at this moment, before speaking.

"Speaking of which, this is also the second time I have come here, but I heard that this year there are several great Confucian scholars who will watch the ceremony in person, and the scale is larger than before. Each legion has sent troops to participate. Our school has only twenty or thirty teams. I heard that There are hundreds of character teams participating, and other words..."

Saying this, Fu Zefeng seemed to have remembered something, and said to Song Mu at this moment.

"I heard that there will be a competition for military officers leading the team this time, but I don't know what's going on, General Song, but you know about this?"

Song Mu was also taken aback, expressing that he didn't know. Fu Zefeng was also surprised when he heard it, but he could only shake his head helplessly.

Soon after, Song Mu returned to his barracks, thinking about how this competition would be, when the dog master had already walked over.

Before he came to him, Song Mu saw a serious look on his face, and he was also puzzled at the moment.

Just as he was about to speak, Lord Dog had already spoken to Song Mu.

"General Song, according to the information I just received, this time the generals above seem to have improvised. This time not only the teams will compete, but the military officers leading the teams will also compete."

"I heard that they are going to choose generals, but there seems to be something different."

Song Mu's eyes paused, and at this moment he also remembered the unusual look of Mao Sheng before.
