The devil is coming

Chapter 106
"On the other side, the withdrawal has begun."
Zheng Fan nodded and said to Liang Cheng: "Let's go out first."
At this time, there is no need to consider whether Qianjun is trying to spread suspicion. To be precise, when these ten thousand Jingnan troops appear, the situation is infinitely close to that of a flying dragon riding on the face.
Unless a meteorite falls from the sky, how can we lose?
Of course, Qianjun and Qianguo don't have the fate of the Son of Destiny, otherwise it would really be the taste of God in this world that is unique.
The barbarian soldiers began to march under the command of Liang Cheng, and the Qianguo army was also moving, but they were more preparing for battle. No matter how rotten the interior of the nearby Sui Fortress was, at least the battlements were now on it. People are on guard.
This made Zheng Fan couldn't help but wonder who the coach of the Qian Kingdom was. You know, in this situation, someone who is not the emperor actually dares to give in, and does it so thoroughly. Ordinary people really can't do this. situation.
All fools know that in the face of disputes between countries, whoever dares to give up on the stage will be liquidated after returning home.
However, seeing the Yan Army cavalry who had been chased by their own side for two days just swaggering away in front of him, the morale of the Qian Army did indeed drop. It was a bit like an eggplant beaten by frost, but because it came from Jing The Southern Army was a real threat, but they still managed to gather their energy and began to form formations under the command of their respective generals.
The flanks of the Jingnan Army's formation opened up, allowing Zheng Fan's cavalry to enter. Immediately, the Jingnan Army began to change its front troops to rear troops, and alternately covered the retreat in an orderly manner.
"It is powerful but not arrogant, and it is strong but not overbearing. If the Marquis of Jingnan is really leading the army, this Jingnan army is also elite, and this Marquis of Jingnan is even more extraordinary."
This is the evaluation given by Liang Cheng. For anyone, especially a general who is in high position, with iron armor, some of the characteristics of a person's personality will be infinitely expanded and magnified.
Just like now, if Zheng Fan leads the army, he will definitely leave in a more arrogant and domineering manner. Before leaving, he will have to show off his skills in front of the people of Qian Kingdom. After all, everyone can see that the people of Qian Kingdom are giving up. Now, no matter how much you show off in front of him, he won't dare to fight back against you.
But Marquis Jingnan did not do this. It seemed that he still treated the Qianjun as equal elites, and was still on guard against possible pursuit by the other party when he evacuated.
It is human nature to be a grandson when the situation is low, but it is remarkable to remain humble and prudent when the situation is great.
However, after listening to Liang Cheng's words, Zheng Fan said:
"Speak a little more if you can talk."
"Huh?" Liang Cheng didn't understand, because the first reaction of everyone who heard this was that the other party was being sarcastic.
"Tell me, don't stop. Tell me more about the formation, the battle, and your views on how to attack Qianguo. The exam is coming soon."
"Okay, my lord, but do you need my subordinates to help you take care of the injury on your back first?"
"No, just tell me, don't worry about this injury, just keep it."
Liang Cheng started to talk. This was a big zombie who had led troops in wars since ancient times. His insights and experience were unique. The most important thing was that he was also good at self-learning. For example, the man who broke out last night That time, Liang Cheng truly admitted his mistake in front of Mowan.
The devil is not scary, but I am afraid that the devil will still reflect on himself.
Liang Cheng was talking, while Zheng Fan was listening carefully and memorizing it silently in his mind. It was a bit like staying up late in the dormitory the night before a college exam and making cheat sheets with oil paper tape.
Not long after,
A Jingnan military academy lieutenant came on horseback.
The order was given:
"The Marquis has an order, Zheng Shoubei comes to see you."
…………
Because the army was marching, Zheng Fan was led to a carriage by the commander on horseback.
"Come in."
A woman's voice came from inside.
The captain looked at Zheng Fan and made a "please" gesture.
"Um, ah?"
Zheng Fan was stunned for a moment. Seeing that the carriage had no intention of stopping, he took a breath, rode the horse and chose a suitable position, then put his hands on the saddle.
I want to jump, but because I was possessed by the magic pill last night and my body is particularly weak today, my legs are a little weak.
The Qi and blood were drawn several times, but they seemed very weak. Finally, Zheng Fan had to turn his head and look at the captain, and said with some embarrassment:
"Brother, help me?"
It's not that Zheng Fan is being pretentious, it's true that he can't jump over it. If he accidentally misses his heartbeat and falls again, even if he is unlucky, he will be run over by such a big carriage.
Hiss, that sour and refreshing...
There was no disdain on the captain's face, but a hint of admiration. He rode over and reached out to grab Zheng Fan's shoulders.
Zheng Fan used this strength to jump up and finally jumped onto the deck of the carriage.
"Thanks, brother."
Zheng Fan stabilized his body and clasped his fists at the captain.
The captain also returned the greeting with cupped fists.
Zheng Fan looked forward and reached out to lift the car curtain. He was not really worried that Marquis Jingnan would look down on him, because such a big man rarely cared about his own personal emotions when looking at problems, even if the other party knew that he was "deep-minded" , but they will also hold their noses and think that their actions have actively created border friction and confrontation, which is in line with the strategic layout needs of Yan State.In order to guide the direction of the wind, you must also reward yourself.
The carriage was very big, and Zheng Fan felt a sense of warmth when he walked in.
Behind the brazier, Du Juan was helping Marquis Jingnan remove his armor, and Marquis Jingnan had his back to Zheng Fan.
Zheng Fan just stood there, not daring to be too presumptuous. The person in front of him was a powerful master after all, and after all, he had just "saved" himself, so he had to give someone some favor.
Not every nobleman is as dopey as the Sixth Prince.
When he thought of the Sixth Prince, Zheng Fan suddenly felt that he still missed him a little bit.
Marquis Jingnan took off his armor, sat down in front of the charcoal basin, and pointed lightly with his fingers.
"sit."
Naturally, Zheng Fan had no stool to sit on, not even a cushion. The carriage was spacious, but it only had one pair of cushions.
Therefore, Zheng Fan sat down cross-legged.
One good thing about Yan State is that although there are hierarchies, there is no need to pay attention to details. You can just sit down when you are told, and you don't have to kneel there fearfully.
Marquis Jingnan glanced over Zheng Fan's body, seeming to notice the blood stains on Zheng Fan's body, and said:
"injured?"
"It's not serious when I return to the Marquis."
Du Juan handed a sweet potato to Marquis Jingnan. Marquis Jingnan shook his head, pointed at Zheng Fan and said:
"give him."
Du Juan handed the sweet potato to Zheng Fan, and Zheng Fan reached out to take it. At the same time, their eyes met.
The female spy from the Secret Intelligence Department actually sat in a carriage with Marquis Jingnan. Does Marquis Jingnan know how to play and is not shy at all?
The very hot sweet potatoes were weighed back and forth in his hands. Zheng Fan was not in a hurry to eat them and let them dry first.
"You are very brave."
Zheng Fan didn't know how to reply, so he didn't reply.
"That's all, let's talk about what the scene is like in the border town of Qianguo."
Zheng Fan began to index in his mind. In fact, he was a personal experiencer of the action, so he naturally had his own insights. But just like the same scenic spot, if you ask a primary school student to write a travel diary and a literary giant to write a travel diary, it will definitely have a different feeling.
Liang Cheng is a general with experience in leading troops. Using his perspective and presentation method to answer Jingnan Hou's questions will obviously produce better results.
"The border troops of the Qian Kingdom have long been defeated by the golden jade outside. The three counties of the Qian Kingdom have all built cities and forts, trying to use the bricks and tiles of the forts to stop the iron hoof of our great Yan.
However, those who are good at fighting should put people first. Soldiers, armor, equipment, and city bricks are all dead things. Although dead things can be used as aids, they are not enough to rely on.
According to what the general has heard and seen along the way, although there are brave and loyal people in the border army of Qian State, there are only a few who are difficult to achieve a better situation. The soldiers cherish life, the scholars love money, and nearly half of the garrison troops in the border army have empty quotas. , and nearly half of them have become private slaves of the powerful.
There were three towns in the northern part of the Qian Kingdom, Chen, Liang, and Wei, with a total of 80 soldiers and horses;
But according to the general's opinion, if we fight in the field and Lord Marquis is the commander, our [-] Jingnan Army and our [-] Yinlang County soldiers and garrison troops will definitely be able to defeat them! "
"Master Hou is the coach" was added by Zheng Fan himself. Liang Cheng's original words were that in that situation, unless the coach was a pig, it would be difficult to find a reason to lose.
Marquis Jingnan put his hands on the charcoal basin to bake.
Said very calmly:
"Then in your opinion, why didn't I order the war earlier?"
Since you spoke so poorly of the Ganjun army, why didn't I order them to be killed earlier?
Zheng Fan had already torn open the skin of the sweet potato and took a bite. Zheng Fan had not yet tasted whether the sweet potato was sweet or not, but he felt a little happy in his heart. It was probably equivalent to finding out that he guessed the question correctly during the postgraduate entrance examination.
"Because the country of Qian is rich, but our country of Yan is poor."
Hearing this, Marquis Jingnan's eyes suddenly narrowed, but he was not angry.
"go on."
“The Qian Kingdom occupies a rich and prosperous land in the Central Plains, and is far larger than our Yan Kingdom in terms of territory and population.
The reason for the weakness of the Qian Kingdom is not that the country is small, that the country is poor, or that the people are few, but that it emphasizes culture and suppresses military affairs, and that the scholar-bureaucrat class has become powerful. The power of the emperor of Qian Kingdom has been weakened. The local area is rich but the country is poor. The local area is self-respecting but the country is declining. weak.
Since ancient times, small countries have been used to conquer big countries, and poor countries have been used to conquer rich countries. The way to victory lies in speed, and the big countries must not be given an opportunity to breathe and adjust. "
Hearing this, Marquis Jingnan raised his head and looked at Zheng Fan again.
But he smiled and said:
"In that case, if you went to tease Gan Ren without permission, wouldn't it be a warning to Gan Ren?"
"As for the Marquis, the last general's move was just to find out the reality of Gan Ren. Although it caused Gan Ren to lose a little face, it was only a minor trouble in the end, far less than what the Marquis would have done if he had just given an order to directly kill the Qian Kingdom. The Qianbian Army cavalry swallowed it in one gulp, which shocked Ganren even more."
"Slight trouble?"
"Yes, Xiaoyou, with this strength, there is no way to wake up a person who is pretending to sleep."
"What a person who pretends to be asleep even if you can't wake him up. Zheng Fan, you made me take you seriously today."
"Fear at the end."
"Then in your opinion, if I, Dayan, want to attack the Qian Kingdom, how should we do it?" Marquis Jingnan paused and added: "Be specific."
"First, just like today's Marquis, put pressure on Qian Guo and ask Qian Guo to deploy its domestic warworthy troops to the three northern counties for defense.
Our army will look at the right opportunity and wipe out the elite field warriors of Qian Kingdom in one fell swoop. Their cities and fortresses can be left alone, and they can use an iron cavalry to attack Qian Kingdom's capital!
When the time comes, we will have the initiative to force the monarchs and ministers of Qian State to cede territory and pay compensation for peace, or to continue to destroy Qian State and go to Beijing to capture the monarchs and ministers of Qian State and return them to the country to present to His Majesty. The initiative lies in our hands. "
"Haha, according to you, just my Jingnan Army is not enough."
Zheng Fan took a deep breath,
I'm making quick decisions in my mind,
At last,
Still opened the mouth and said:
"I, Dayan, still have 30 Zhenbei troops!"
Marquis Jingnan's left fist suddenly clenched. For a moment, the flames in the charcoal basin seemed to be completely compressed by an invisible momentum. The light in the carriage also dimmed instantly, reflecting the face of Marquis Jingnan. , began to flicker.
a long time,
Marquis Jingnan opened his mouth and said:
"Did Xiao Liuzi tell you these?"
"His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince has a close relationship with the general, and they are close friends. However, the general can see this himself. The general is from Beifeng County, and he has also served in the Zhenbei Army.
I don’t know about the other generals, but one thing is that the general can guarantee his life, Zhenbei Hou, there is no way he can rebel! "
Marquis Jingnan seemed to have filtered out all Zheng Fan's other words.
I directly caught a strange point,
Road:
"As a local foreign minister, you have an affair with a prince. Do you know what kind of sin this is?"
Zheng Fan's mind immediately recalled the conversation he had with Xiazi Bei that night. After he told Xiazi Bei about the Marquis of Jingnan, Xiazi Bei made this conclusion:
Marquis Jingnan is the empress's biological brother and the brother-in-law of the current Emperor Yan. Logically speaking, such a relative should learn to behave with his tail between his legs. After all, as a foreign relative, the word "foreign" is the biggest limitation. Throughout the ages, as long as the relatives dare to dance happily, unless you take their place, the end will be quite miserable. At best, it is like a chamber pot, which will be poured out after use.
But the Marquis of Jingnan was able to take charge of the Jingnan Army, and he was so arrogant and domineering in his actions. He broke into the city and went on a killing spree in Yinlang County. Excluding this Marquis of Jingnan, he had no way out for himself. There is only one possibility left:
The Marquis of Jingnan is probably the same type of person as the Marquis of Zhenbei.
When he said this, Blind Bei looked up at the stars, patted his legs, and sighed with emotion that the Yan country was really lucky. Could it be that the country's fortune was really booming, so such outstanding figures popped up one by one?
Blind Bei was worried that if the Yan State was so prosperous and destined to unify the east, would it be possible for him and others to be obedient citizens for the rest of their lives?
Troubled times are the soil where careerists like them are active. If Li Zicheng were to go to the peaceful and prosperous China of later generations, he would only be able to work as a hard-working and down-to-earth courier on JD.com.
In Xiazibei's analysis, he believed that Marquis Jingnan's vision and ideology went beyond the gains and losses of one household, and even exceeded the limitations of his own destiny. In his eyes, there may only be the country and the nation. s future.
This kind of person can no longer be regarded as a politician, and can be prefixed with "伟".
An Emperor of Yan, a Marquis of Zhenbei, and a Marquis of Jingnan,
Blind Bei finally burst out with a curse word:
If these three guys stand together, then the other three countries will have nothing to do with us!
……
For this reason, when faced with questions like this from Marquis Jingnan, Zheng Fan chose an extremely bachelor attitude.
replied:
"The last general met His Highness the Sixth Highness after he saved his life. Moreover, His Highness is kind-hearted and benevolent. He does not judge people based on their family status. The last general really respects His Highness the Sixth Highness."
"The style of a benevolent person? Why don't you say he has the style of a master?"
"actually……"
"Actually what?"
"Actually, I do think so. It may be because among the princes, I only recognize the Sixth Highness. Therefore, I think that the other princes may be better. Otherwise, I really don't understand why the Sixth Highness can't..."
"Presumptuous!" Du Juan scolded.
Zheng Fan immediately threw the sweet potato skins in his hand on the carriage and changed his position to kneeling on one knee.
"The general made a mistake."
"Oh, you should know which prince is about to take over the East Palace, right?"
"The general knows that it is His Highness the Second Highness."
"Then you should also know who your Second Highness is from this prince?"
"The general will know that he is the nephew of the Marquis."
"Then you still dare to speak like this in front of me?"
"When I reply to the Marquis, whatever the Marquis asks, I will answer truthfully. I will not dare to deceive the Marquis in any way."
"You dare not lie in any way. In this way, the relationship between you and Xiao Liuzi is irreconcilable. Does that mean that Xiao Liuzi will not be regarded as the prince in the future? You must also learn from the way Zhenbei Houfu helped the late emperor ascend the throne by sending troops to help Xiao Liuzi. ah?"
"The general will not."
"Oh? Now I can't do it anymore. Why, I said all the things I shouldn't have said before, and I said such presumptuous things, but now I suddenly don't dare to say them again?
Don't you have a very good relationship with Xiao Liuzi, but you don't dare to help him at the critical moment? "
Zheng Fan smiled and said,
replied:
"Returning to the Marquis, the last general has few troops. The last general Cuiliu Bao originally only had [-] cavalry. This time we lost dozens of cavalry when we went south. These soldiers are not enough."
Du Juan's face suddenly froze, and she tried not to laugh.
Marquis Jingnan smiled directly and pointed at Zheng Fan.
"You, you, hehe, why, are you so sure that I am unwilling to kill you that you dare to be so presumptuous?"
"The end will not dare."
"You don't dare. Why don't you dare? You only have a few hundred people under your command, but you dare to go south without authorization. If you have a Jingnan Army under your command, are you going to directly help your Sixth Highness to rebel?"
"If the general has a Jingnan army under his command, the general will be more willing to fight against the Qian Kingdom and go to Beijing.
The Cuiliu Fort where the last general was stationed was the place where the first Zhenbei Marquis broke willows a hundred years ago. However, the first Zhenbei Marquis never got his long-cherished wish, which was a pity.
Therefore, I would like to ask the Marquis to grant my permission. If one day I, the Great Yan Tie, ride on horseback to the capital, I would like to be the first to climb the city wall even if I don’t do this defense. In short, I would like to be the first to climb the wall of the capital! "
After hearing these words, Marquis Jingnan said,
His face calmed down.
He reached out and picked up the remaining sweet potato beside the charcoal pot.
Road:
"There is also a sweet potato, do you want to eat it?"
"I won't eat anymore."
"Why, it's quite sweet."
"Master Hou, if you eat too many sweet potatoes, you will fart a lot."
"..." Marquis Jingnan.
Marquis Jingnan's chest rose and fell.
Finally, he threw the sweet potato in his hand directly at Zheng Fan.
scolded:
"roll!"
