Chapter 1240: The Army's Heart Lifts

Now it was the soldier's turn to be dumbfounded, he worked hard to report the news, not only did he not get a reward, but he was to be scolded with twenty military sticks, which was really embarrassing.

Knowing that it was such a starvation result, he shouldn't have come here, but took a gold ingot given to him by Lin Tian and went back to his hometown in Nanyan Country and farmed honestly.

But there is no regret medicine in this world, he had a bitter face helplessly, walked out of Nangong Ao's military tent, and went to get the twenty military sticks.

After the soldier left, Nangong Ao fell into deep thought, although he was very sure that Lin Tian, the general of the Xiangxiang Country, was not the Lin Tian he knew, but he always felt that something was wrong in his heart.

Because Xiangxiangguo, whether it is a civilian official or a military general, should be a woman, when will there be an extra man as the general of the army? And he didn't have any news beforehand, so it can be seen that this Lin Tian has just taken over the army in Xiangxiang Country.

After all, there are a lot of military grain and grass in the rear, if the grain and grass are destroyed, the army's heart will be shaken, not to mention that it is very difficult to break through Nanxia Pass at that time, even if it is a frontal battle with Xiangxiang Country.

"Someone." After Nangong Ao thought of this, he shouted outside the tent.

One of the guards immediately walked in, clasped his fists and said, "Marshal, what are your orders?" ”

"Let General Zhuhuo lead his 30,000 Xuan Beast cavalry to our rear immediately, find out for me a small group of enemies who are destroying our grain and grass base, and remember for me that I must destroy them all and ensure that the grain and grass are transported here smoothly." Nangong Ao ordered.

This battle is a matter of importance, he absolutely cannot allow any problems, this Lin Tian wants to disturb his rear? No way. Master Ben told you that none of you could go back.

The guard nodded slightly, and said more. He asked, "Marshal, is it really good to let General Zhuhuo's Xuan Beast cavalry leave?" We're fighting against the other party's Le Shitong right now. Wouldn't that be a disadvantage? ”

"Hmph, where did you suffer?" Nangong said confidently: "We are now besieging the city, this Xuan Beast cavalry is completely useless, besides, we have an army of 800,000, and only 30,000 cavalry have left, and there is no impact at all...... So the most important thing now is to ensure the safety of the transportation of grain and grass in the rear, otherwise when the time comes, it will be you and me. All 800,000 people will go hungry. ”

"The last general understands, so I will inform General Zhuhuo to leave." The guard nodded thoughtfully, of course he didn't want to go hungry, it was really uncomfortable to fight hungry on the battlefield.

Especially after a battle, the body is consumed, and the more you want to eat, if there is no food and grass, the army will be disrupted.

"Wait." The guards were about to leave the tent. But he was stopped by Nangong Ao, he thought for a while, a wicked smile was drawn on the corner of his mouth, and said, "I remember the last time we fought Le Shitong. Captured 40,000 of her female soldiers, right? ”

"Yes." The guard nodded and said: "We started a decisive battle with Le Shitong, and since our reinforcements arrived, Le Shitong fled back to Nanxia Pass with 80,000 remnants of the defeated army. In addition to killing 120,000 people, we also captured 40,000 female prisoners. Now he is being imprisoned in Peach Blossom City in the rear. ”

"Good." Nangong smiled proudly and said, "This Lin Tian actually used a beauty trick for my soldiers. Yes, men themselves are lustful, and if they can't touch women for a long time, this combat effectiveness can't be improved...... You immediately send people to Peach Blossom City and order them to bring 40,000 female captives to the front line, so that our soldiers can have a good time. ”

The guard was slightly surprised, and said, "Marshal, aren't these captives you want to use to blackmail the empress of Xiangxiang Kingdom?" If you do, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. ”

There are 800,000 men on this front, and if these 40,000 women are brought, will they still be alive? The guards felt that Nangong Ao was a little cruel in doing this.

"Hmph, I originally planned to do this, but our soldiers can't capture Nanxia Pass for a long time, and their morale is relatively low, I must find a way to cheer people's hearts, and these 40,000 women are the best medicine...... Don't say more, I've made up my mind..."Nangong said proudly glaring at the guard.

"Yes." The guards didn't dare to say anything, so they could only do what Nangong Ao said.

Subsequently, the dust and smoke suddenly billowed in the military camp of Nanyan Kingdom, and General Zhuhuo left the front line with his 30,000 Xuan Beast cavalry, rushed to the rear to find Lin Tian's army, and looked for an opportunity to annihilate them all.

Then, a few fast horses left in the barracks, and these people went to Peach Blossom City to inform the guards of Peach Blossom City, send 40,000 female prisoners to the front line, and comfort the 800,000 soldiers.

Then, Nangong Ao posted a notice in the barracks, publicizing the matter of the female captive, naturally, the effect was very good, and the soldiers were excited, and the morale of the army was greatly boosted.

……

Lin Tian's army had been reorganized in Qilin Valley for a few days, and it was not until General Xiang Qiu returned that he ordered the army to move on.

"Xianggong, where are we going next?" During the march, Dong Jiyao rode a horse, looked at Lin Tian on the side and asked.

Everyone immediately laughed, how could they not laugh, Dong Jiyao hated Lin Tian very much in the past, not to mention that he could affectionately call Lin Tian Xianggong, but he didn't even look at Lin Tian.

But it's only been a few days, and this chick has been done by Lin Tian.

Lin Tian smiled indifferently, looked at the road ahead, and sighed: "Actually, I don't know where to go, although it is said to be a march to fight, but our task is not to conquer the city, it is completely to disrupt the enemy's grain and grass transportation...... Therefore, we can only count wherever we go, if we encounter a large army of the enemy, we will run, and if we encounter a small group of enemies, they will be counted as unlucky and destroy them. ”

"Xianggong is so right, don't worry, if there is an enemy, I will be the first to go up and charge." Dong Jiyao said with a smile.

"With you, I'm naturally relieved." Lin Tian nodded and said.

Dong Jiyao suddenly blossomed, because Lin Tian was praising her again, this was the second time Lin Tian was praising her.

At this time, Xiang Qiu and two soldiers ran over from the opposite direction on horseback.

Holding the reins, Xiang Qiu hugged his fists at Lin Tian and said, "General, we have explored the front, and there is a small city in front of us, called Peach Blossom City. ”

"Peach Blossom City?" Lin Tian thought for a moment and said, "Order the team to turn around, we don't have siege equipment now, and we can't take a city." ”

"General." Xiang Qiu hurriedly said: "This Peach Blossom City is just a small city, and due to the war, half of the city wall has collapsed, we can rush in...... And most importantly, this Peach Blossom City is now the place where the captives of the Southern Yan Kingdom are held. (To be continued......)
