After passing through Weishui, the first town to enter Dachu is Hongyu Town.

Unlike other countries, as a city located on the border, since there was no tall city wall as a barrier in front of Hongyu Town, and there were no heavy guards, Xiao Mu led a large army to occupy the entire town without much effort.

The 600,000 Chu troops who were captured, the 700,000 Shui monks who were drawn from Weishui, the 400,000 troops who were recruited from the defeat of Yanting, and the nearly 400,000 Xiao troops that were originally in Ningzhou. The total number of troops was 2.1 million.

With such a large number of troops, it was extremely difficult to dispatch alone, and it took seven days to lead this army across the river, and this was on the premise that all the ships of Wei had been dispatched. And with Wei Di's current dispatching capacity, the grain and grass transferred are only enough for this army for about a month. Not to mention the huge gap in armaments, it was almost impossible for anyone to find a second set of spare armor.

Xiao Mu, who easily took the territory of Dachu, did not have the slightest intention of being happy, he stood at the gate of the town with a frown, looked at the people in the town who were like frightened birds, looked around and said: "Pass the order, the army will be stationed on the spot, do not disturb the people, and those who violate the order will be beheaded." ”

The soldiers hurriedly nodded yes, and Xiao Mu, who received the response, was a little relieved before asking, "How is the situation of the rest of the teams?"

The army of more than two million people was huge, and in all fairness, even Yue Pingqiu, who was the oldest among the people in Ningzhou, did not have the experience of dispatching such a large number of troops alone.

If such a large number of troops are not properly dispatched, they will often be burdened by this huge scale and be pinned down by the enemy. Therefore, Wei Lai divided the army into six legions, led by Xiao Mu, Yue Pingqiu, Zhou Buming, Ning Luchuan, Xiao Baihe, and Xu Trapping, except for Zhou Buming's subordinates with 600,000 troops collected by Dachu, the remaining five people led an army of 300,000 people.

Wei Lai's decision to send troops to Dachu came suddenly, and the plan of the 600,000 army to be dispersed and incorporated was not implemented at all, and now it can only be led by Zhou Buming to minimize the possibility of a mutiny in the 600,000 army.

According to Wei Lai's arrangement, the 600,000 Great Chu army was led by him and Zhou Buming to open the way in front, and the remaining five armies were led by Xiao Mu and others to follow Wei Lai from the fifth route, advancing steadily, collecting as much supplies as possible, and exchanging the silver taels that were escorted with the army for the food, grass and ordnance needed by the army.

"Tell the general that the other four generals have arrived at the preset target according to the plan, and almost none of them have encountered much resistance, and the 600,000 troops led by His Majesty have also camped sixty miles ahead according to the plan

Settle down. The adjutant on the side heard Xiao Mu's inquiry and hurriedly answered at that time.

Xiao Mu could more or less hear some excitement from the other party's tone, after all, before this, most people were suspicious of Wei Lai's plan, and even resistant.

And now all this is going so smoothly, which is really beyond everyone's expectations, after entering the territory of Da Chu, they have hardly encountered a decent resistance, such a situation inevitably gives birth to a conjecture that Da Chu has run out of oil now.

Xiao Mu nodded, he saw the joy on the other party's face, but he was a little worried in his heart - there is a way that a hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, let alone this Da Chu.

He felt that Da Chu's abandonment of resistance at this moment was more like the calm before the storm. What's worse is that Weidi's finances and grain reserves are simply not enough to support the consumption of more than 2 million troops, not to mention the difficulties brought by the narrow supply lines across Weishui to transport grain and grass. Wei Lai's so-called plan to collect as much supplies as possible in every town and town, in Xiao Mu's opinion, unless they can be ruthless and plunder the civilians, it will never be possible to replenish the supply of the army.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mu sighed, and he said again: "After the army is stationed, arrange the manpower to patrol at night, everything is as usual, and there must be no slack." ”

When the armorer heard this, he didn't doubt him, and at that time he arched his hand towards Xiao Mu, and then retreated.

......

"Your Majesty really plans to fight all the way to Tianxiong City like this?" In the barracks of the vanguard army, Zhou Buming walked up to Wei Lai, looked at the emperor in front of him, who was not even twenty years old, and asked.

"Does the general think I can't fight?" Wei Lai asked with a squint of his eyes.

Zhou Buming lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty is talented and intelligent, and has the strategy of ghosts and gods. ”

Wei Lai shook his head, naturally he didn't pay attention to Zhou Buming's rhetoric, and he asked again: "I have a question I want to ask the general, who are you fighting for, general?"

This question came very abruptly, which made Zhou Buming stunned, but before he could respond, Wei Lai's voice continued to sound: "The general is a descendant of the Zhou Dynasty of the Wei Dynasty, but he doesn't seem to have any hatred for me, the person who destroyed the Taimiao of the Zhou Dynasty." ”

"You are also a Great Chu God General, but you seem to be very suitable for the identity of the current Wei general. I wonder what the hell is the general fighting for?"

"Your Majesty is suspicious?" Zhou Buming came back to his senses and asked rhetorically at that time.

"Not skeptical, just curious. Wei Lai said

Road.

Zhou Buming bowed his head and was silent.

Wei Lai smiled when he saw this, but he didn't ask any more questions on this issue: "Everyone has their own secrets, the general is unwilling to say it, and I will not be reluctant." ”

Zhou Buming said: "Zhou doesn't plan to fight for anyone, everything Zhou does is just for himself." ”

"Oh, where do you start?" Wei Lai asked with interest.

Zhou Buming fell silent again, he looked sideways behind him - the vanguard army, that is, the 600,000 Chu army that had been captured, was stationed outside the Huaiyu City of Great Chu at the moment.

Although Huaiyu City is also located on the border, it is the main road between Great Chu and Wei Di Ghost Rong and even Qi merchants in the past, and it is extremely prosperous. However, similar to what happened to Xiao Mu and others, the vanguard army also did not encounter too many obstacles, and they were also not hindered too much in the process of entering the city. And at this moment, the people of the city were standing on the periphery of the army camp with a look of trepidation, as if they were waiting to see how the sudden army would treat them.

Zhou Buming's gaze swept over these people one by one, and then said quietly: "Zhou is a person who is greedy for power, I like authority, I like to be high, and I also like to watch my children and grandchildren under my shadow, even if I don't do anything, I can live a good life." ”

"But the premise is that this world has to be the original world, and these power, fame and fortune are meaningful. ”

"And the current Da Chu is no longer Da Chu, so I think Your Majesty should understand what you mean, right?"

Wei Lai frowned when he heard this, he heard Zhou Buming's words, and looked at those people at that time, and at this moment, the eyes of those people lit up with bursts of blood, their clothes were torn, their backs were bent, and the whole person landed on all fours like a beast, and the next moment those people rushed over and killed.

Whether it was Wei Lai or Zhou Buming, they didn't seem to be surprised by such a change, Zhou Buming took the lead in stepping forward, pulled out the long knife in his hand and shouted: "Formation!"

Then the 600,000 Great Chu troops poured out from their respective places at this time, and they resolutely drew out the long knives at their waists, facing the Great Chu people who had turned into monsters like a tide. The two sides collided together, and although the army on the Great Chu side was somewhat damaged, it quickly stabilized its position under the impact of these people who turned into monsters, and then the bright swords were raised again and again, and began to quickly harvest the lives of these monsters.

And Wei Lai stood in the distance, squinting at all this in front of him, his face was cold, and the light in his eyes flickered, as if he was thoughtful......
