My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 183: We agreed to just defend the mountain, but you guys attacked it directly? ! !

tonight.

For ordinary people, it was an ordinary night.

But for the eldest princess and Zeng Anmin.

It was a night that went down in history!!
The names of these two generals will surely be remembered by future generations!
"Great victory!!"

After the Yuanyang Army occupied the high ground of Bifeng Valley.

Zeng Anmin looked towards the throne.

It was a throne that was seven feet high.

That throne belongs to the master of Bifeng Valley.

The great demon king of the Bixuan tribe.

Bixuan's throne!
But today, Zeng Anmin took the seat.

"Bixuan, you really know how to enjoy yourself."

Zeng Anmin lay on the Demon King's throne, squinting his eyes and looking down.

More than a dozen members of the demon tribe knelt on the ground trembling.

"Cat girl, dog girl, why is there a bear girl..."

Zeng Anmin looked speechless.

The female demons kneeling on the ground.

They all had hairy faces, were not wearing much clothes, and were kneeling shivering.

"Why is it different from what I imagined..."

Zeng Anmin looked at the little cat girl kneeling in the front for a while.

In the end, I couldn't help it and waved them away.

Shouldn't the cat girl in my imagination be the kind with cute cat ears, a beautiful figure, and a curvy figure that makes people bleed from their noses...

How come he has a bunch of hair on his face, and only his body barely resembles a human...

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath and looked ahead calmly.

Wu Qianfeng is counting the harvest.

"How about this battle?"

Zeng Anmin sat on the throne, slowly lowered his head and looked towards Wu Qianfeng.

After hearing Zeng Anmin's words, Wu Qianfeng showed respect:
"Master Zeng, in the battle at Bifeng Valley, our army lost a thousand men."

?

“I’m asking about the harvest.”

Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched and he looked deeply at Wu Qianfeng.

Wu Qianfeng's mouth twitched a little and he said with some discomfort:

"The demon race is poor and dull. The only things that are useful to me, the Great Sage, are the minerals in the mountains and the terrain of the mountains and forests."

"As for the harvest..."

Wu Qianfeng sighed and looked up at Zeng Anmin cautiously:

"Some of the monster's corpses can be used as military rations."

"The bodies of the four demon generals and the Mighty Lion Demon King can also be transported back to the capital, and the experts from the Xuanzhen Division can be asked to make some spiritual tools."

"alright."

Zeng Anmin sighed.

He slowly stood up and said, "Order the Yuanyang Army under your command to guard all the mountain roads, and not a single demon tribe can go south."

"Yes."

There is no need to give this order.

After the battle in Bifeng Valley, Wu Qianfeng had received orders from the eldest princess.

Taking Bifeng Valley as the stronghold, all the mountain roads to the north of Bifeng Valley were firmly guarded.

We will never let any demon enter the Bifeng Valley.

"Where is your highness?"

Zeng Namin raised his head and looked towards Wu Qianfeng.

Wu Qianfeng pondered for a while, then slapped his forehead and said:

"The Baideng Mountains are indeed a Feng Shui treasure land. The princess seems to have discovered something and is following the traces to look for mineral deposits."

"profound."

Zeng Anmin stretched himself and waved his hand nonchalantly:

"Keep an eye on these prisoners. Don't let them cause any trouble."

"Yes."

Wu Qianfeng saluted respectfully and walked towards the prisoner.

Zeng Anmin was too lazy to manage these things, so he simply left the cave and walked outside.

"Zeng Anmin!"

A familiar voice sounded.

Zeng Anmin turned his head and looked towards the source of the sound.

Then the eldest princess' figure was seen falling from the moon.

At this time, the eldest princess took off her light armor and wore a palace dress.

The white palace dress was like a white gauze skirt covering her body.

As the eldest princess tapped her toes.

Like a fairy from the Moon Palace, floating slowly towards me.

The eldest princess's eyes were smiling, and her lips curled up like a flame.

The round long legs were faintly visible under the gauze.

Perfection is written all over it.

It was the first time that Zeng Anmin saw such a knowing smile on the eldest princess' face.

He stood there, somewhat dazed, looking up at the eldest princess who was flying in from the tree branches.

"What are you thinking about?"

The eldest princess tapped the ground lightly with her toes, held up the hem of her skirt with both hands, and walked up to Zeng Anmin.

She looked into Zeng Anmin's straight eyes.

For a moment, his face looked a little unnatural.

Therefore, his face fell slightly and his chin was slightly raised.

"Cough cough!"

Zeng Anmin knew that he had lost his composure, so he quickly bowed to the princess and said:

"The princess is as beautiful as a fairy from the Moon Palace. An Min has never seen such a beautiful face before. He was shocked for a moment. I hope Your Highness will not be offended by this."

He is very calm.

The eldest princess was indeed the most perfect woman he had ever seen.

Not only good-looking.

Her figure is so perfect too.

He is also a fourth-rank military officer of the current royal family.

Smart mind.

Excellent in handling matters.

The battle between her and the lion king just now and her agile figure are still lingering in Zeng Anmin's mind.

"Ah."

After the eldest princess heard Zeng Anmin's words.

I don't know why, but a sense of shame arose in my heart.

She covered it up with a chuckle.

"Just now, I went to the southern part of Bixuan Valley. Guess what I found?"

Zeng Anmin blinked, then stroked his chin and replied:
"I just heard from Wu Qianfeng that you followed the trail to explore the mines in the mountains. Did you discover any minerals?"

The eldest princess' eyes still showed joy, and the smile on her face became more intense:
"That's right, I discovered a spiritual mine!"

Spiritual mine?

Zeng Anmin's eyes trembled violently, he looked up at the princess with his eyes wide open:
"Spiritual Stone Mine?!"

"Of course!"

Seeing Zeng Anmin's shock, the princess couldn't help but chuckle and said:

"Thanks for reminding me to lead the troops here."

"Otherwise, we would have missed this spiritual mine!"

"The Xuanzhen Division, the Dao Sect, the Eastern Sect, etc.... These practitioners use spirit stones as currency for transactions. Now our Great Saint Dynasty has discovered this kind of spirit mine..."

The eldest princess' eyes sparkled:

"God help our Great Holy Dynasty!!"

"Zeng Anmin, you have made the greatest contribution to the discovery of this mine!"

"When we return to the capital, I will ask His Majesty to confer a title on you!"

The eldest princess looked straight at Zeng Anmin, her eyes unable to conceal her admiration.

"Uh."

Zeng Anmin coughed dryly, then straightened his eyes, bowed to the princess and said:

"Princess's words are wrong."

"The first credit for this battle goes to Dean Qin."

"If he and Bi Xuan had not defeated him, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to enter this place."

Mention Qin Shoucheng.

Zeng Anmin's tone was somewhat solemn.

The smile on the eldest princess's face slowly disappeared.

She sighed softly:
"President Qin is a man of both ability and integrity, and he is of high character and integrity. I will certainly recommend him to take the lead."

"But your contribution is still not small. After last night's battle in Beifeng Valley, your reputation as a talented general will surely spread far and wide."

"Thank you so much, Princess."

Zeng Anmin bowed solemnly to the eldest princess.

"No need to thank me, this is what you and Dean Qin deserve."

"Oh, by the way, Princess, we should go back and report the results of this battle to Marshal Tian."

Zeng Anmin looked towards the eldest princess and said with a serious expression:
"Leave Wu Qianfeng with the troops to guard here. I and the princess will lead the troops to the front road and bring back some military supplies."

"Ah."

……

The next day.

The eldest princess and Zeng Anmin led a thousand soldiers and left the Bifeng Valley, heading towards the road ahead.

It took five days to get here.

The princess and Zeng Anmin took three days.

After all, there is no need to fight, and there is no need to worry about enemies coming from all directions.

All possible enemies from all around have been cleared out.

"I have met Her Highness the Princess."

"Meet Commander Zeng."

When the two men arrived at the front road, there was a grain transport officer waiting there.

This grain transport officer was from Tian Jishan's army and was here to transport grain to the 5,000 Yuanyang soldiers.

When they went to Bifeng Valley, Zeng Anmin and the princess discussed launching a blitzkrieg.

War feeds war.

Following the army means killing monsters and obtaining food.

Therefore, there is really no need to transport food and fodder here.

"How much grain and fodder is piled up?" The princess looked at the grain transport officer with a calm expression.

The grain transport officer pursed his lips slightly.

He said with difficulty:

"Princess, the Duke has not delivered rations to our army for three days."

When the princess heard this, she narrowed her eyes and looked at the grain transport officer:

"Not sent in three days?"

"Yes."

Her eyes slowly looked towards Zeng Anmin.

Zeng Anmin's face also showed a solemn expression.

"Two possibilities."

His eyes met the eldest princess's:

"First, the food supply route between our army and the Duke of Wei was attacked."

"But only you and Duke Wei know about this grain route, so the possibility of it being leaked is unlikely."

"As for the second one..."

Zeng Anmin's eyes were filled with solemnity:

"The food supply route of the Duke of Wei's army at the foot of the mountain was attacked, and the remaining food and grass cannot meet the needs of the army..."

The eldest princess' eyes also became extremely solemn:
"So, there is no ability to transport food to our army."

"Yes."

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath and said, "No matter what the reason is, we must investigate it first."

…………

South of Baideng Mountain, on a vast plain.

Under the Guangnan County City.

An army of 10,000 is engaged in a very brutal siege.

Duke Tian Ji of Wei had an extremely solemn look in his eyes.

He stood leaning on his sword and looked towards the solid Guangnan County.

Ladders, soldiers, and shouts of killing.

After nearly half a month of siege.

Guangnan County, where the King of Jiang State resides, is already on the verge of collapse.

but……

Even this crumbling city still could not be conquered after a long siege.

A huge city.

East, West, South.

There were large armies attacking on three sides.

The smell of blood and decay had already permeated the air.

Duke Tian Ji of Wei looked extremely unhappy.

His face froze coldly.

around him.

The faces of several deputy generals were also extremely anxious.

The depressing atmosphere weighed on everyone's mind.

"How many days can the army's food and grass last?"

Tian Ji looked at the dusty general kneeling in front of him.

There was an unconcealable solemnity in his eyes.

"If you use it sparingly, it will barely last for seven days."

"After seven days, our army's morale will be shaken."

"If there is no military rations in seven days, I'm afraid there will be a camp roar."

The general kneeling on the ground sighed deeply.

"Use it sparingly..."

These four words sound easy.

But it sounds extremely cruel.

The daily allowance of one pound of food per person was changed to half a pound, or even three ounces...

How can soldiers fight if they don’t have enough to eat…

"And now our army has lost 20,000 soldiers."

"But a rough estimate shows that there are only 3,000 combat-ready soldiers left in the enemy city."

"If there is sufficient food and grass, we will be able to capture this city within ten days."

The general pursed his lips tightly:
"But the food and supplies...will not be able to hold out."

Duke Tian Ji of Wei narrowed his eyes and stared at the army that was attacking the city.

There was silence for a long time.

"We are still two days short of military rations..."

"We are just two days short of rations..."

His hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword.

"The food supply route was attacked..."

His narrowed eyes could not hide his murderous intent:
"Wang Feng, you can't defend the northern pass of the county. We can't prevent the Jiang army from sneaking in and attacking our army's food supply route!!"

Everyone was silent.

No one answered his words.

"General, if we withdraw our troops today, we still have room for maneuver."

"But if you don't withdraw... we must capture Guangnan County City within seven days."

"It would be good if we could capture Guangnan County, as the people in the county could use their food to fill their stomachs."

"But if we fail to capture the city and a camp riot occurs... and the troops flee..."

"This is not the worst. If the King of the South in the city notices the disorder in our army and opens the city to attack..."

Every word made Tian Ji's face look uglier.

He stared at the city.

"Your Majesty's great cause...is only short of two days' worth of military rations!"

His lips trembled.

A line of tears of humiliation flowed from his eyes.

"I, Tian Ji, am ashamed to receive the Holy Spirit's grace!!"

“I am unworthy of the Holy Spirit’s grace!!”

His voice was extremely hoarse.

He held the sword tightly in his hand, staring at the siege army that was advancing one after another. Some were killed in battle, but others were immediately replaced.

"Your Excellency, the deputy commander of the Yuanyang Army, Zeng Anmin, requests to see you."

Someone suddenly walked towards the tent and knelt down to worship.

"The Mandarin Duck Army..."

Hearing this, Tian Ji's face suddenly froze.

His face showed guilt.

"We haven't delivered food to the Yuanyang Army for three days. He must be here to urge for food..."

"How can I face him..."

Tian Ji pursed his lips tightly.

He didn't dare to look at the person kneeling on the ground.

He waved his hand feebly and said:

"not see."

……

There was silence in the tent for a long time.

The person kneeling on the ground slowly raised his head and looked at Tian Ji seriously.

"General Tian, ​​Commander Zeng said that he knows the predicament you are in now, and he is here to deliver food to you."

?

?

?

The entire tent fell into silence instantly after hearing these words.

Tian Ji suddenly raised his head and looked at the man:

"Please come quickly!!"

"Yes."

…………

"Anmin, I greet the Duke. May the Duke be blessed."

Zeng Anmin was not wearing any light armor at this time. He was dressed in a green robe, with a contented smile on his face, and slowly came out of the big tent door.

He came in front of Tian Ji and bowed gently to him.

Tian Ji stared at Zeng Anmin intently:
"You...know everything?"

Zeng Anmin grinned and chuckled: "If the grain route had not been attacked, why didn't General Tian deliver grain to our Yuanyang Army for three days?"

"Then you said you have food..."

Tian Ji took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Do you know that there is no joking in the army?"

Zeng Anmin curled the corners of his mouth slightly.

I don't know when, a feather fan appeared in his hand.

He gently waved his feather fan, his eyes showing a calm and composed look:

"Ten days ago, Dean Qin killed the Bixuan Demon King on the Baideng Mountain Road."

"Our army will attack Bifeng Valley directly and occupy it."

"We didn't loot much food and grass, but we still have nearly 30,000 demon corpses."

"There are quite a lot of corpses of bear demons, wolf demons, dog demons, and pig demons."

"Oh, and there are a lot of dead birds and beasts as well."

"I think it shouldn't be a big problem if we ask the Marshal's troops to improve their food and eat some game to last them for four or five days."

Zeng Anmin finished speaking.

Duke Tian Ji of Wei is also good.

It would be fine if there were more than ten generals in the account.

Everyone felt as if they had heard the most unbelievable words in the world.

They all looked stunned.

Duke Tian Ji of Wei.

This Duke has fought wars for half his life.

Now widen your eyes.

Staring at Zeng Anmin in front of him.

"What did you say?!"

"Bi Xuan is dead?!"

"Conquer Bifeng Valley?!"

Zeng Anmin waved his feather fan lightly, with a smug look on his face:
"Your Majesty, you heard it correctly. Every word is true."

Tian Ji's eyes slowly became dull, and he couldn't help but murmur:

"We agreed to just defend the mountain... and you guys attacked it directly?"
