0559: Breakout direction

"Lord Hugh, I see that none of the brothers in the Fenwei Army have eaten dry food, so you go and arrange for them to eat and drink as much as possible." Xiao Chen held Ren Kangde's hand and turned around and said.

"Yes, the lowly position will be arranged immediately." Xiu Feng hurriedly answered, turned around and went to find the Xiao cavalry battalion guarding the side, and asked him to get some military rations.

"Thank you, sir......" Ren Kangde couldn't help but say again with emotion.

"Don't say thank you, if you have the heart, when there is a convenient day, please ask us to have a good drink." Xiao Chen interrupted Ren Kangde's words and smiled even more heroically.

"Okay, I'll just say this to you, I won't say much about Ren's nice words." Ren Kangde struggled to sit up straight, and he said to the Fenwei soldiers standing around: "Brothers, they are all their own people, so don't be polite to them." ”

"It's for the best." Xiao Chen laughed loudly.

Xiu Feng, who was looking at Xiao Chen from afar, couldn't help but quietly give a thumbs up, thinking that this Lord Commander was far more shrewd than he imagined, and he would be sold to the hearts of the people so quickly.

The logistics soldiers of the Xiaocai battalion quickly sent several large boxes of dry food, all of which were ordinary compressed biscuits and water, and the officers and men of the Fenwei Army were not picky people, they were hungry for a day, and they were already very satisfied with their stuttering.

Ren Kangde didn't take a biscuit until all the soldiers received the dry food, and this casual behavior was seen by Xiao Chen, and he looked up to this person again.

Affected by the information explosion of the great era, Xiao Chen knows a lot of ways to sell people's hearts, thinking that this kind of official and general, first subordinates endure hardships, and subordinates enjoy subordination, which can most move people's hearts.

This kind of behavior, Xiao Chen envies but is difficult to do, he has always been a pampered person, and he thinks that he can't endure hardships.

However, it is enough to win the hearts of the subordinates for the generals, and win the hearts of the generals for the commanders, Xiao Chen is not taboo about Ren Kangde's generals.

In the process of distributing food, Xiao Chen kept holding Ren Kangde's hand and explaining to him that he could not make a fire and could not provide hot food to the brothers.

As a cadre of the border army, Ren Kangde is also well aware of military affairs, and he in turn comforted Xiao Chen: "Lord Xiao, it's good to have a stutter, but now the situation is not good for us, making a fire is easy to attract the bombing of enemy warships, and it is really not cost-effective to lose your life for a mouthful of hot food......

"Watching the brothers endure hardships, Xiao is really unhappy, but Brother Ren, you are right, making a fire is easy to expose the target...... However, I promise here that after breaking through the earthquake city and breaking through to the outside of the encirclement, I will definitely cook more than a dozen of his fierce beasts and give them a good explanation for the brothers......"

"Lord Xiao doesn't have to blame himself, we are used to eating, in fact, this kind of dry food is much better than our Fenwei Army......" Ren Kangde said a little unnaturally.

"As soon as I talk about eating, my saliva is flowing out, Hugh Feng, give me a biscuit, I want to eat while talking to Brother Ren."

"Yes, Lordship." Hugh Feng hurriedly sent a bag of biscuits over and intimately tore off a corner for it.

Xiao Chen took it and looked at it, and glanced at Xiu Feng with a smile, he said this just to get closer to Ren Kangde, he had just eaten a piece of high-energy and high-nutrition instant meat, and his stomach was full.

Xiao Chen took a bite of the biscuit, feeling that it was very dry and difficult to swallow, thinking that people just can't get used to it, and the soldiers of other people's Fenwei Army ate it with relish, but it was difficult to swallow it when they came to him.

Xiao Chen swallowed quietly, and he said deliberately: "Brother Ren, the imperial capital was slaughtered, did you see it with your own eyes?" ”

"Hmm." Ren Kangde was stunned suddenly, and was silent for a little half a minute before he said abruptly: "Miserable, really miserable, hell on earth." ”

Ren Kangde had a thousand soldiers under his command, and they patrolled the sky on two warships, and they naturally saw the tragic scene in the imperial capital.

"I really can't figure it out, King Langya spent decades of time to lay out, and finally got the imperial capital, it is the great treasure that ascended the throne, and he pointed out the country with high spirits, why did he do such a vicious thing? Didn't he want to be emperor? ”

"It's not clear about this humble position." Ren Kangde looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Lord Xiao, I heard Lord Hugh say that you are the lover of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" ”

"Well, I guess so." Xiao Chen sighed, he played with the biscuits in his hand, he didn't want to eat them, and it was impossible to throw them away in front of everyone.

"My lord, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have any plans? I mean to counterattack the imperial capital and recover the rivers and mountains? If there is, he is willing to be a pioneer. Ren Kangde suddenly said excitedly.

"You're a pioneer?" Xiao Chen was stunned, he hadn't started to say anything about co-opting them, but the other party broke out, which made him have some other ideas.

"Yes, I am willing to be the vanguard, only for the 30,000 Fenwei soldiers who died tragically outside the city, and only for the innocent people who died tragically in the imperial capital." Ren Kangde said impassionedly.

"If you counterattack, I will recommend you as the vanguard, but King Langya has destroyed the communication facilities, and we can't contact Xiaoxiao for the time being......"

"Do you know where the prince is going?" Ren Kangde said again.

"It should be back to the ancestral land, I heard Xiaoxiao say that the ancestral land has treasures and ambushes left by the previous emperors, let's go to the ancestral land first and then talk about counterattacking."

Xiao Chen deliberately revealed some important information to increase Ren Kangde's awe of him.

"Back to the ancestral land? Lord Xiao, I'm afraid we can't accompany you to the ancestral land. Ren Kangde said suddenly.

"Why?" Xiao Chen asked in surprise.

"Lord Xiao, it is already a violation of military regulations for us to flee here without an order, but because there is an unpredictable war, this is understandable. So now, it is the best choice for us to go back to the Northern Military Region, if we go with you to other places, the military law is ruthless, we brothers...... If we let them be charged with desertion, we will be ashamed of our brothers who died in battle, even if they die. ”

Ren Kangde said it sincerely, Xiao Chen frowned slightly after hearing this, he really didn't think about this, but he soon had an idea.

"With you people, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break through the layers of interceptions set up by King Langya in various cities, so let's do it, I will recruit you in the name of Xiaoxiao's fiancé, and ask you to escort me back to my ancestral land, in this case, even if the commander of the military region comes, he will have to deal with it as appropriate."

"Brother Xiao, you, you don't have to be so ......" Ren Kang's tiger eyes suddenly turned red, flashing with tears of stars, of course he knew what a big crime it was to disobey military orders, Xiao Chen did this, which was equivalent to saving them more than three hundred people.

"Brother Ren, you don't need to be moved, in fact, I am also for myself, with you joining as a new force, the safety index of my return to my ancestral land will be greatly increased." Xiao Chen pretended to laugh heroically.

"Thank you, Lord Xiao......" Ren Kangde solemnly hugged and saluted.

"Thank you, thank you? Take the command. Xiao Chen patted Ren Kangde on the shoulder and smiled.

"Yes, Ren Kang has to take the order." Ren Kangde suddenly knelt down on one knee, hugged and bowed his head, and shouted respectfully.

"Okay, okay...... Hugh Feng, come here. Xiao Chen clapped his hands happily, he thought of something, and suddenly turned around and beckoned to Xiu Feng: "Brother Ren, let me introduce to you, this Brother Xiu Feng was originally the royal guard of the Royal Forest Army, and I was appointed by me, and now he is the chief of staff of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, you follow him in the future, help him more......"

"Humble command...... Hugh sir, I have seen my lordship in my humble position. ”

"Okay, okay, congratulations on adding another tiger general." Xiu Feng happily supported Ren Kangde, supported the other party hard, and happily said to Xiao Chen.

Ren Kangde felt the happiness in Xiu Feng's heart, and his anxiety about being looked down upon suddenly calmed down a lot.

With the support of Xiao Chen and Xiu Feng, the two biggest leaders, Ren Kangde felt that his life here should not be sad.

The three of them sat down with their hands and said congratulations with joy.

"My lord, I heard Lord Hugh mention that Zhencheng has long been controlled by King Langya, what should we do now?" After a few words, Ren Kangde couldn't wait to ask.

"Brother Ren has been on the battlefield for a long time, presumably you already have a belly case?" Xiao Chen asked silently.

"I have some thoughts in my heart, please look at ...... adults"

Ren Kangde was already a bold person, and when he recognized his brother with Xiao Chen at this time, he couldn't hide his words in his heart, so he immediately picked up a branch on the ground and scratched it on the ground.

"This is Zhencheng, here is Gencheng, and that is Xuncheng, the distance between the three cities is strictly planned, and they are all sixty miles." Ren Kangde quickly drew a simple map.

"Since the earthquake city was occupied by King Langya in advance, I am afraid that these two cities have also fallen into his hands, so we have to pass through this defense line, and we can't walk from the edge of the three cities, but only the wasteland between the two cities."

"Makes sense, go on."

Although Xiao Chen had thought of these for a long time, he did not say anything, and motioned for Ren Kangde to continue, firstly, he had the intention of comparing the other party, and secondly, he wanted to hear a feasible method, at least he could pick up the missing and make up for his shortcomings.

"My lord, the ancestral land is in the southwest of the empire's Xi territory, if I were to garrison Zhencheng, I would definitely think that the people who followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would pass through the barren mountains between Zhencheng and Gencheng, so I will set up heavy troops here, and wait for others to throw themselves into the net......"

"Makes sense, go on." Hugh Feng also nodded and smiled.

"Therefore, it is recommended to go from here, bypass the earthquake city, and leave from the edge of Xuncheng a little farther away." Ren Kangde said in a large circle with a branch.

"Well, that makes sense, so let's decide." Xiao Chen smiled: "Let's set off again in the evening, you guys have a good rest first." ”
