Devil’s Advent

The coffin was transported to the city tower and placed in the middle of the city wall on the east side. Zheng Fan sat directly on the coffin board with his saber across his side.

This scene, in the eyes of outsiders, can be said to be extremely tragic. In a cold weapon war, whether the main general can play the role of leading the way often has a great motivating effect on his subordinates.

The soldiers and horses in Li Fusheng's town can be said to be the best at gnawing hard bones among the six towns of the Zhenbei Army. Also screaming and fighting to the death together.

Right now, Zheng Fan is not cramming to imitate Li Fusheng, but because the Shatuo Queshi lying in the coffin can be said to be his biggest reliance now.

If the battle situation finally got to the point where it was out of control, it would be impossible for Sha Tuo Que Shi to hide it anymore, and he would call out for him to take him away when the time came.

Before he was alive, Shatuo Queshi could penetrate several times when facing the cavalry of the Northern Army of Qianqian Town. Now he has become a zombie after death, and his strength should have declined, but he caught a weak link of the opponent and rushed out alone. The probability should not be small.

As for the other demon kings, in their opinion, if Zheng Fan can survive, they just have to figure out a way to go for a walk. If it doesn’t work, they will die. No matter what, it’s better than Zheng Fan, the master, who dies all together. much.

The Situ family's soldiers and horses have already approached the city, and this army of soldiers and horses seems to be considered majestic, indeed they have the demeanor of a strong army.

It is said that when the assassin was still there, he once said that soldiers and horses are like knives, if they are left unused, even the best swords will rust.

Even if you insist on wiping it from time to time, after all, the blade has not been stained with murderous aura, and no matter how carefully it is cared for, it is nothing more than a shiny surface.

Because of this, since the assassination of Xianggong, the Western Army of Qianguo has expanded the defense area to the southwest and included the northern border, which is used to sharpen the knife.

Just imagine, if the Yan army went south this time, if the Western army hadn't played the role of the mainstay, it would have been impossible to say that the situation in the country would have already collapsed, and the so-called attack on Jin by way would be unnecessary.

According to this concept, the three families of Jin, the Helian family and the Wenren family are located in the west of the Jin country. The Helian family is to the north of the Wenren family, and there are many small countries to the south. Therefore, the Wenren family has the most comfortable geographical advantage and sits at the center of the four major countries. The commerce and trade are developed, and the war is poor. Among the three major families, it can be said that the Wen family is the richest.

Although the Helian family is connected to the Tianduan Mountains in the north, because that section of the mountain range also borders the country of Yan, there are not many savages in it since the beginning of time. Apart from being wary of the country of Yan, the Helian family also has no one on weekdays. No matter how many opportunities to use swords and weapons, even if it is against Yan Guo, if it is not this time that it feels that it has a great opportunity, it will not dare to provoke it easily.

On the contrary, it was the Situ family. Not to mention the large number of savages in the Tianduan Mountains in the north, there were even more savage tribes living in the vast expanse of frost and snow in the northeast.

If the threat of savages in Jin was divided into ten shares, then the Situ family could be said to have taken seven or eight shares.

Not to mention that the south of Situ's house is bordered by the state of Chu. The two sides have come and gone over the years, and they will come here every now and then.

The soldiers and horses have been in a state of mobilization and preparations, and the opponent they are facing is not a peasant rebellion. It is difficult for such soldiers and horses not to be tough.

This is probably one of the reasons why Emperor Yan wanted to make peace with the old Situ family after the first stage of the war.

At this time, a support cavalry appeared among the Situ family's soldiers and horses, and went directly to the city.

Zheng Fan raised his hand, signaling not to shoot the arrow.

Zheng Fan is familiar with this job, and he did it himself in Shangjing, but compared with himself back then, his team is obviously much more formal.

There was also a civil servant in a red official robe holding a yellow scroll in his hand, presumably it was the so-called imperial decree.

Emperor Dacheng has a decree. This time he raises troops, he is not willing to go to war with the Yan Kingdom, but only to capture the puppet emperor of Jin and punish him for the crime of disrupting the three Jins.

It seems that he also took into account the low cultural quality of Qiu Ba and others, so the civil official of Chengguo did not read the edict politely, but shouted it out in his own words.

Zheng Fan smiled. His Situ family believed that Yu Ciming was a false emperor, but in the country of Yan, Emperor Yan recognized the status of Emperor Jin, so how could he hand it over?

Although from the perspective of the people of Jin, Yu Ciming is indeed a traitorous emperor who opened the door and bowed to the robbers, but a child will distinguish between a bad person and a good person, and an adult will only care about the position of the buttocks.

My lord, delay for a while. Liang Cheng said.

Unless the general on the other side is a fool, I won't believe it. Zheng Fan said.

What if it's a fool?

OK.

Zheng Fan leaned out of the battlements and shouted:

We need to ask His Majesty Emperor Dayan for instructions!

Redundant, there is no need to say more, too many mistakes.

This civil official was not a good stubble, he said:

Then I will wait for the good news!

After all, he pulled the rein and started the return journey.

Whether the Situ family believed in this plan to slow down the troops, they probably didn't believe it, because the team immediately started camping, and at the same time began to cut down nearby trees to prepare engineering tools.

If it is an ordinary small fortress, when there are not many garrisons inside, in fact, one archer can suppress it, and another vanguard can climb the city and take it down.

But this Wubao itself is not too small, and because of the war a few days ago when the Yan people entered Jin Dynasty, the old Wubao specially reinforced and heightened it for self-protection. The two or three hundred soldiers that Ci Ming brought back, not counting the young and strong of Wubao, have two thousand soldiers. If the Situ family comes again aggressively, unless they want to let their own family members pile up the height of the city wall with corpses directly under the city, otherwise it is impossible to be foolish. Directly ordered to attack the city.

When I was in Qianguo, facing this kind of city wall, my head hurt badly. Now the city wall is on our side, and the opponents are all cavalry, which is quite cool.

Zheng Fan laughed and joked with Liang Cheng.

What the lord said is that in the future, infantry will also be kept in our army, and the scale must not be small, and it will be used when we pull out the city.

Um.

At this time, the blind man silently went up to the tower from below and came to Zheng Fan's side.

Blind man, why are you busy down here all this time? Zheng Fan asked.

When the big event comes, the demon kings each have their own division of labor, and immediately enter the role. The blind man was down there to comfort people, but it should have ended long ago, but it is now dark before coming up.

To tell the truth, although Zheng Fan also knew that Liang Cheng was the best at fighting among the demon kings, he felt a little less safe without this old silver coin by his side when something happened.

My lord, this subordinate went to the Emperor Jin's personal soldiers for a few rounds earlier, and got some words.

Oh? What's wrong? Zheng Fan asked curiously.

The subordinates feel that there is a little problem.

question?

Yes, after Emperor Jin separated from us, his first stop tonight should be Xinsu City, and then his next stop is to return to Fengguo, his own land of Gyeonggi.

And then? Zheng Fan suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

Xinsu City is guarded by my Yan State City, and it is guarded by a general officer under the command of Jingnan Hou, but after asking those soldiers, I learned that when they were about to arrive at Xinsu City, Situ The family's army suddenly rushed out from outside Xinsu City, and they failed to let their team enter Xinsu City.

It's a good relationship. It shows our affairs. Even if our own messenger didn't rush out, Xinsu City will definitely send a letter to Yan Jun.

No, my lord, what this subordinate means is that since Xinsu City is still in the hands of the Yan army, how did the army of the Situ family in front of us manage to quietly approach the vicinity of Xinsu City without being noticed?

Tens of thousands of cavalry can be hidden if they are in the wilderness and valleys. Even if the two princes of Jingnan Houzhen and Beihou entered the Jin Dynasty, it seemed like a good move, but if there is no Jin Emperor, he will go south. The gate led the Yan army to enter, and if there was a real fight, the Helian family would definitely receive the news and respond to it.

Having said that, the blind man turned to Liang Cheng and asked:

Ah Cheng, tell me, is this strange?

The land of Jin was newly attached, and the hearts of the people were not yet accepted. That's why when the Situ family raised troops, the actions of the three Jin dynasties echoed and directly formed a scale.

But since Xinsu City has not fallen, it is almost impossible to ambush tens of thousands of cavalry near Xinsu City. The Jingnan Army under the command of the Marquis of Jingnan is known for its strict military discipline. It is impossible for an army like this to be so careless as to commit such negligence.

Zheng Fan rubbed his swollen temples and asked:

So, what do you mean is that the Jin Emperor was originally intended to be given to the Situ family by the Yan Emperor? Yan Huang and the newly enthroned young master emperor of the Situ family have actually reached a PY deal?

If that's the case, what are you doing now?

My lord, there is actually another possibility. Liang Cheng said.

you say.

Xinsu City has been stationed with a military force for decades, and it was used by Wen people to monitor the capital, and now the city is under the control of our Yan army.

To put it another way, if Yanhuang and the Situ family had not reached a deal to send Jinhuang away like a bargaining chip, the Yan army in Xinsu City would not have deliberately released water.

Then it can only be that this Situ family's soldiers and horses have been hiding near Xinsu City, a place where it is inconvenient for the sentry cavalry of the Yan army to enter and detect.

Zheng Fan immediately responded, Hiding in Gyeonggi?

That's the only place where you can hide your troops without being discovered by the Yan army in Xinsu City. When the Emperor Jin's team is about to enter Xinsu City, make an appointment in advance, and the cavalry from Gyeonggi will rush out in advance. In this way, even if Xinsu The Yan army in the city found them, and there was no way to deal with them for a while.

Zheng Fan let out a hehe\

,"road:

So, this is Jinhuang's self-directed and self-acted game to catch himself?
