Chapter 312: A Paper Appointment
There is a section of the border to the east of the Basalt Domain that is constantly in conflict with the Shura Kingdom.
Not so long ago, in the same place, there was a brief clash between the two sides. Just when everyone thought that the matter was over, a large force suddenly appeared on the side of the Shura Kingdom.
For a while, this section of the border in the Eastern Xuanwu region immediately became a rumor, and one after another urgent military information was sent to the military headquarters of the imperial capital.
In the core conference room on the top floor of the military department, several cabinet elders sat at the round conference table, and their faces were not good-looking.
"Xuanwu, what do you think about the incident happening in the area you are responsible for?"
"I think it's strange that usually the Shura people will conduct raids on your side of the Blue Dragon or pretend to conduct large-scale military exercises. Why did you run to my corner this time? ”
"The Shura people never do anything without a purpose, and this time they gathered a large army to surround it, and it is estimated that they found something in your area.
Our three kingdoms all have demon god forbidden areas, and there are twenty-four in each country. Except for those that have already been developed, the rest belong to the strategic reserve. When we try to steal and destroy the forbidden areas of the demon gods of other countries, why don't they lurk in our territory like us?
The last time the destruction of the forbidden area of the Demon God of Hecheng was done by the Shura people, but the people we sent out chased it all the way to the border of the Shura country. If it weren't for the people from the Shura Country who had already responded, we would have been able to catch those thieves in one fell swoop. ”
"Suzaku, can you draw someone out of your side? I really don't have enough manpower on my side. Although I am not facing the enemy's main forces like the White Tiger and the Green Dragon, I will send troops to garrison the places bordering the eastern and western fronts.
As you know about the situation in the far north, the infestation of the coastline by sea beasts is increasing day by day, and it has become the place where the most soldiers are drained. ”
"Xuanwu, I'm not having a good time here. Although there are no military disasters, there are many natural disasters in various places, and my soldiers are now like craftsmen and coolies, opening mountains and wading through waters.
However, since you have spoken, then I can't refuse, so send an army to reinforce it! It's just that it will take at least a month to get from me to you! ”
"A month? As long as there is a clever commander in charge of guarding the town, I think a month can still be gained, even if it is two months. ”
"Oh? Are you so confident? It seems that you already have a candidate in mind. I don't know which of the five generals you are going to send this time? ”
"No, no, no, they have another responsibility. Everyone knows the candidate I want to send this time, that is, the kid who has a good record in the defense of Jinling City.
I'm curious to see just how much potential he has. Xiao Pei recently trained in the imperial capital, and I had a long conversation with him before the training. He strongly recommended Feng Ming to me, believing that Feng Ming's ability was definitely capable of commanding a million-strong army. ”
"Xuanwu, you won't believe it! Is an army of a million men so easy to command? Even we don't boast about it. ”
When the white tiger heard this, he felt very uncomfortable. Among the five people here, if you want to say who is the most brave and good at fighting, it is none other than yourself. A kid who has just debuted, will he know how to march and fight better than himself?
"White Tiger, I know you will feel a little uncomfortable after listening to my words. That's why I chose him as manager this time.
In the military camp in the East Xuanwu Realm, there were 20,000 soldiers stationed. Near the border, there are high mountains on the left and right. If he can't hold it with such favorable terrain, I think he is really just a momentary luck, and not a real wise commander. ”
"Humph! I'm not as eloquent as you don't fight with you, I want to hear everyone's opinions, especially Kirin's. ”
"Mine?"
"That's right, it's yours. Xuanwu is good at scheming, and you are good at decisiveness. Who listens to you if they don't listen to you? ”
"You, you, this is to roast me on the fire! Anyway, the military situation can't be delayed, and it's time to give those Luo Zi a little color.
I think that Xuanwu's idea can be put into practice, and our military department has always been eager to recruit talents. As long as it is a talent, we don't care about the background or age.
It is our aim to use what we can. This Fengming bloomed his brilliance in the defense of Jinling City, if he can once again bloom his brilliance in this defense battle, then what if we award him the rank of general? What about giving him the wild road he carved out?
We can't let the soldiers in front of us chill their hearts, we have to stab Fengming to convey a confidence to them. As long as you are truly bloody soldiers, able to defend your home and country, and go into battle to kill the enemy, we, the elders of the military department, will never turn a blind eye to you. In our hearts, you are heroes. ”
"Ahem, ahem, Kirin! Why does it feel like it's the New Year every time it's time for you to wrap up? Your Majesty's New Year's Message is nothing more than that! ”
In this way, an order was written on the letter of appointment by the unanimous opinion of the elders.
A piece of paper, accompanied by the sound of rapid horses' hooves, was sent in the direction of Jinling City.
Feng Ming, who was in the barracks, had no idea about this, and he was looking intently at the map spread out on the table. He wanted to use the least force and the fastest speed to open up a wild road close to Xuanwu City.
"Huh? Why did my left eye jump so hard today! I slept well last night! Feng Ming stood up and looked towards the door of the tent.
"Maybe I'm thinking too much!" With that, he looked at the map spread out on the table again.
Towards evening, Feng Ming stretched a big lazy waist. He wanted to go out and do some activities, and after standing in the tent for a day, thinking about it for a day, it was time for a good activity.
However, as soon as he left the tent, he heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Soon, a dusty messenger appeared in his field of vision.
"Lil..."
The messenger shouted, then turned over and dismounted, and gave a military salute to Feng Ming.
"General Feng, the military department is urgent, please accept it." The messenger respectfully handed over the paper he had in his arms.
"How can you be sure that I am Fengming, this messenger? What if I wasn't? ”
The general laughed. Before I came, I had carefully read and engraved your portrait in my mind, and it was one of the abilities required to be a messenger. ”
"Good work. Please also take a break in the tent. ”
"No, I have to rush back to my life. That's the farewell. With that, he got on his horse and returned the way he had come.
Feng Ming looked at his back and smiled, and after that, opened the paperwork.
"No, it won't! It also makes it fun to play! Could it be that the elders have clairvoyance, know that I am too comfortable here, and deliberately find something to keep me busy? ”
After reading the order, Feng Ming looked up at the sky with a smile on his face. He always felt that this order came too suddenly, could there be some conspiracy waiting for him behind this order?
