Chapter 107: Ping Yue Ce (I)
When Zhang Fan saw Lu Lingqi again in the martial arts training ground the next morning, her face was still stinky, and she carried out a stormy attack on Zhang Fan without saying a word. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Of course, this did not cause much trouble to Zhang Fan, who was familiar with the Heavenly Halberd Method.
When both sides were panting and sitting on the stone steps to rest, Lu Lingqi couldn't help but ask:
"I know why you're improving so fast...... It's because of that tea from yesterday, right? β
Zhang Fan wiped his sweat, "No, it's because I'm making progress so fast, it's because of my talent, I drank that kind of tea for the first time yesterday." This tea is called Wudao tea. It has an incredible effect on breaking through the wall of martial arts, and it is only effective when taken for the first time. β
Lu Lingqi nodded, thoughtful.
"It's not that I'm stingy. Do you know where this tea came about? Zhang Fan began to make up the story:
From this east, there is a mountain for thousands of miles, the name is Tianzhi Peak, there is a thousand zhang cliff in the south of the mountain, the perennial clouds and mist are shrouded, and the nearby villagers seem to see the fairy dancing from time to time. Later, a traveler passed by here and found that this wonderful scene was actually caused by a one-foot-high nine-leaf tea tree on the cliff. Taoists are also tea lovers, but the cliffs are steep and precipitous, and no one can approach them. β
However, this Taoist is proficient in the art of controlling beasts, and he has worked hard to find a three-eyed stone monkey, and he is good at flying eaves and walking walls. After taming, he climbed up and picked tea leaves to make enlightenment tea. It's a pity that the monkey is stubborn, and the foundation of the tea tree was torn off during the tea picking process, and the tea tree died not long after. Six months ago, by chance, I used a 3,000-year-old He Shou Wu plant to exchange this last bit of tea with him. I will definitely never be able to drink it again. β
Lu Lingqi was deeply attracted by the story just now. In her mind, such a magical tea must have a bizarre story to deserve it. So I am convinced of Zhang Fan's words. Besides, it has also helped him break through the realm anyway, what more can he ask for?
"Well, although you don't have a heart, I also followed you to break through the martial barrier...... Well, thank you anyway! β
Zhang Fan pretended to exaggerate and joked: "It's amazing! Today, Miss Lu actually took the initiative to thank me...... I have to see, is the sun coming out of the west? β
Lu Lingqi glanced at him and said angrily:
"Hmph, naΓ―ve! Alas, by the way, when are we going to go to war against Shanyue? It's been a month of cultivation, and it's almost there, right? β
"Are you in a hurry?"
"That's right! The agreement we made was that I would help you pacify Shanyue, and after completing the task, you would let me go home. Of course I'm in a hurry! β
The corners of Zhang Fan's mouth rose, "In the last battle to annihilate Yan Baihu, many soldiers had casualties and needed time to recuperate. In addition, the first victory battalion has just recruited two thousand recruits, and it also needs time to train. Moreover, military rations, military uniforms, horses, and siege equipment were prepared before the war...... It all takes time, and it's useless to rush. However, the 18th of this month is an auspicious day, and I have decided to go out on an expedition eight days later to defeat Zulang. β
"Danyang Sect Marshal Zulang?" Lu Lingqi raised her eyebrows, "Although his reputation is not as loud as Yan Baihu, he is the strongest of all the Shanyue Sect commanders, and it is said that he has thirty or forty thousand people!" Why don't we start with the weaker Zong Shuai, such as Fei Zhan in Danyang County, Peng Hu in Poyang County, Chen Ce in Lujiang County, and Dong Hei in Yuzhang County...... These people to get started? β
Zhang Fan glanced at her unexpectedly, "Tsk...... Can't see it? Lu Qidu still made a lot of effort! β
Lu Lingqi smacked him, "Hmph! Are you stupid? A few days ago, you ordered the tea division to send information about Shanyue, and I read it every day, okay? β
Zhang Fan laughed, "Yes, worthy of encouragement!" It's better to ask Lu Qidu to analyze and analyze this general and make a reference! β
"Humph! Don't underestimate me, come and come! Lu Lingqi's tone suddenly became serious:
"The most powerful in Shanyue are Danyang Zulang, Wujun Yan Baihu, Poyang Youtu and Peng's three brothers and four groups. After Yan Baihu's death, the remnants of the forces were taken over by Pan Lin, so now the three brothers Zu Lang, You Tu, Pan Lin and the Peng family are our most threatening enemies at present. β
"But I suggest that we start with weaker forces, such as Fei Zhan, Peng Hu, Chen Ce, and Dong Si...... These people are relatively easy to deal with, first defeat them and then absorb them, expand our strength, conquer from near to far, and finally attack Zulang. At present, the most suitable target should be the closest to us - Qiantang Zongshuai Peng Shi. β
Zhang Fan didn't say a word, his face was expressionless, and his eyes motioned for Lu Lingqi to continue, and Lu Lingqi had no choice but to continue:
"If you have to fight the momentum of our army in one fell swoop, then I think it's best to choose Pan Lin, he has just absorbed Yan Baihu's forces, and he hasn't had time to fully control it; What's more, the last time the first victory battalion completely annihilated Yan Baihu's 20,000 troops, and his subordinates fought against us again, it was inevitable that they would be afraid, which was more beneficial to us. β
Zhang Fan applauded lightly, "Yes, clear thinking, reasonable." According to the crude intelligence analysis at hand, it is already very good. β
Lu Lingqi didn't have time to be happy, but she caught a glimpse of Zhang Fan's secluded eyes reflecting the light of wisdom, and said flatly:
"Then have you ever wondered how long it will take to pacify Shanyue according to your plan?"
"Well, this ...... This one...... Possible...... Five-...... Ten years! Lu Lingqi's tone was not very firm.
Zhang Fan smiled slightly, "Ten years? The total population of Shanyue is about 600,000, spread over tens of thousands of mountains in 92 counties in six counties of Jiangdong. β
"The harm of Shanyue began at the end of Qin, four hundred years of the Han Dynasty up to the Son of Heaven, down to the locality, all dynasties have tried to eliminate the harm of Shanyue, and in the second year of Zhenghe, the imperial court dispatched an army of 150,000 to encircle and suppress Shanyue, but still returned with a feather...... Why did the Han army fail repeatedly and repeatedly, losing troops and losing generals, and finally had to be appeased and swallow their anger, causing Shanyue to become more and more ignorant and arrogant? Because...... They all think the same way as you. β
Lu Lingqi was unconvinced: "Hmph! Is there anything wrong with this idea? β
