Wei Changfeng led the army all the way forward, and the speed of the army was very fast. Wei Changfeng's goal is obvious, that is, to rush to Tung Chung City before it gets dark today.

At this time, a carrier pigeon flew to Zhang Cheng's shoulder. Zhang Cheng took down the note tied to the pigeon's leg.

The note read: Shi Kaitong has arrived in Tung Chung City.

Zhang Cheng: "Shi Kaitong, a famous general under the king of Dongzhou County, I don't know if Wei Changfeng knows him." ”

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng called Wei Changfeng.

Wei Changfeng walked over: "National teacher, you look for me." ”

Zhang Cheng gave the note to Wei Changfeng: "The wire report I just received, do you know Shi Kaitong?" ”

Wei Changfeng: "Shi Kaitong, I've just heard of this person, I don't know it." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Do you know anything about him?" ”

Wei Changfeng: "I only know that he is the first general under the king of Dongzhou County, and he is good at using soldiers, but I don't know the others." ”

Zhang Cheng: "It seems that we have met an opponent who we don't know at all. ”

Wei Changfeng: "Now that he is in Tung Chung City, could it be that he guessed our plan?" ”

Zhang Cheng: "Our plan is not difficult to guess, because Liaoyuan County is really not worth our stay. What needs to be known now is what they are doing against us. ”

Wei Changfeng: "We have been on the road for a day, and the people are sleepy and tired, will they attack at night?" ”

Zhang Cheng: "There is this possibility, so the location where we are stationed can't be too close to Tung Chung City." We must be given enough time to react. ”

Wei Changfeng: "Well, what the national teacher said is very reasonable. But the national teacher, should we prepare to ambush them? ”

Zhang Cheng: "You launch a large army to ambush them tonight, what will you do with tomorrow's siege?" ”

Wei Changfeng: "Yes." I had been on the road for a day, and I was sleepy and tired. If you don't sleep all night, tomorrow's siege will surely fail miserably. ”

Zhang Cheng: "It's good that you know, the Dongzhou army really wants us to ambush them tonight." ”

Wei Changfeng: "In that case, then we will set up camp 20 miles away from Tung Chung City. It not only prevented them from attacking at night, but also left us enough time to react. ”

Zhang Cheng: "Yes, at the same time, I can also reconnoiter the movements of the Dongzhou army, if they come tonight, I will inform you." ”

Wei Changfeng: "Thank you, National Teacher." ”

Zhang Cheng: "It's not me who you want to thank, it's the dark line personnel of the beacon, it's not easy for them." If it weren't for this note, maybe we would have suffered a big loss. ”

Wei Changfeng: "Beacon, this time it is a love for them." ”

The reputation of the beacon was not good among the ministers, because the ministers all thought that it was a group of people who did not see the light. It is a sharp blade in the emperor's hand, and it is easy to hurt himself if he is not careful. So the courtiers didn't like the beacon.

Zhang Cheng looked at Wei Changfeng and didn't say anything. Although Zhang Cheng didn't understand the thoughts of the courtiers, the courtiers didn't like this kind of institution in ancient China.

This walk was a day, and finally at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Wei Changfeng led the army to the predetermined location.

Wei Changfeng:

"The whole army rested and set up camp."

At 5 o'clock in winter, it was almost dark. The soldiers raised flames and lit up the entire camp.

At the same time as the camp was set up, the firehead soldiers began to cook, and the aroma of the food spread throughout the camp.

After a tiring day, a sumptuous dinner was the most important thing the soldiers wanted to meet.

And the arrival of Wei Changfeng with the army was also discovered by Dongzhou's reconnaissance horse.

Tung Chung City City Lord's Mansion.

After Shi Kaitong learned the news, he immediately summoned Chen Zhengkang, Hu Kailai and Deng Chaofan.

Shi Kaitong pointed to the location of Wei Changfeng's encampment on the map and said, "According to reliable information, Wei Changfeng has already set up camp in this place. Three, what do you think? ”

Chen Zhengkang: "This place, if I'm not mistaken, is 20 miles away from our Tung Chung City. ”

Shi Kaitong: "Yes, this place is not much more than 20 miles away from Tung Chung City. ”

Hu Kailai: "Why did they stop here?" Did you discover our plans? ”

Shi Kaitong: "Our plan, just the four people who know it, you are all the prince's henchmen, naturally no one can betray us." The only possibility is that there is an eye of the imperial court in the city, and they sent the news of my arrival in Tung Chung City to Wei Changfeng. ”

Deng Chaofan: "Wei Changfeng knew that the general was good at using troops, and he was afraid of attacking them at night, so he chose to put the camp 20 miles away from Tung Chung City, so that they had time to react." ”

Shi Kaitong: "What you said is right, I think about it, there is only one possibility." It's all Wei Changfeng's military madness, but I didn't expect him to have such a fine side. ”

Chen Zhengkang: "The general, will we still go for tonight's night attack?" ”

Shi Kaitong: "If you don't want to face the energetic imperial army tomorrow, you can only go tonight." But fortunately, the rangers we formed come and go freely, and they are not afraid of being surrounded by Wei Changfeng. ”

Hu Kailai: "General Shi, let me go for tonight's night attack, the wind yuan power I have cultivated can also reduce the resistance of the wind and speed up the rangers." ”

Shi Kaitong: "Tonight, Deng Chaofan stayed behind to guard Tung Chung City, and the others went with me to see how strong the imperial army's army was." ”

Chen Zhengkang, Hu Kailai: "Yes." ”

Shi Kaitong continued: "Deng Chaofan, your task is not only to defend the city, but also to find out the hidden line hidden by the imperial court in Tung Chung City, understand?" ”

Deng Chaofan: "The last general understands." ”

Shi Kaitong: "Inform the army to cook, eat a good meal tonight, tomorrow's war will be very fierce." ”

Shi Kaitong left after arranging the task, and he wanted to see if the selected rangers were qualified.

There were not many cavalry in Tung Chung City, only 30,000 people. Out of the 30,000 people, choose one who is good at bows and arrows, and good at horsemanship. It was enough for Chen Zhengkang and the three of them to be busy for a day.

In the end, 6,000 cavalrymen from the past were finally selected to form this ranger team.

Shi Kaitong walked in, and all the soldiers knelt down on one knee: "Participate in General Shi." ”

Stone Copper:

"Get up."

Soldiers: "Thank you, General Shi. ”

Shi Kaitong: "You are all elites elected by Chen Zhengkang and the three, but whether you are an elite or not, you still need to pass my level." Everyone, take your bows and arrows and shoot arrows at me, and if you can't shoot a target of my size, you will be eliminated. ”

The soldiers did not dare to strike first.

Shi Kaitong: "Isn't what I said clear enough?" You can shoot arrows from any direction, and the only requirement is to shoot me. And don't think that your arrows can hurt me. Do it, don't do it, military law will do it. ”

Hearing Shi Kaitong's words, the rangers finally started to move, and the first arrow was shot at Shi Kaitong.

Shi Kaitong: "Very good, this person is a warrior, are the rest of you all bad seeds?" Archery. ”

After Shi Kaitong finished saying this, the sky was full of arrows and a rain of arrows shot at him.

However, this rain of arrows in the sky couldn't hurt Shi Kaitong at all, and the rain of arrows in the sky stayed three feet in front of him.

Shi Kaitong: "Yes, the whole 6,000 money, all of them are shot at me, you are qualified." Give them back to you. ”

With the operation of Shi Kaitong's Yuan Force, the arrows that stopped in mid-air all flew back into the quivers of these rangers.

Shi Kaitong: "Have a good meal tonight, I have a task for you." ”

After saying this, Shi Kaitong turned around and left here.

Lintian Pass, Shen Qiu finally walked to Lintian Pass. Looking at the towering Lintian Pass, Shen Qiu said secretly: "Every time I come here, I feel as if this place cannot be breached, and I only hope that the national teacher will have a way to break through the Lintian Pass." ”

After entering Lintian Pass, Xu Ru sent someone to pick up Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu also met this military advisor who looked to be in his 30s for the first time.

Xu Ru: "Lord Shenqiu, it's been hard all the way. ”

Shen Qiu: "I'm tired of the military division coming to pick me up, Shen Qiu is ashamed." ”

Xu Ru: "Shenqiu City Lord, I already know everything about you, it's not your fault, the army of the imperial court is too strong, and it is not something that you can stop as a civil servant." In addition, you have saved a large number of troops, which can be regarded as a great achievement, so why be ashamed. ”

Shen Qiu: "Hearing what the military advisor said, Shen Qiu was even more ashamed, what credit did the people who abandoned the city and flee." ”

Xu Ru: "Shenqiu City Lord, if you say that you are meritorious, you are meritorious, so don't shirk it." By the way, what about the city lord of Ren Pingsheng? ”

Shen Qiu: "Didn't Ren Pingsheng take the first step?" He left that morning, why hasn't he arrived yet? ”

Shen Qiu asked rhetorically with an expression that I didn't know anything.

Xu Ru: "Ren Pingsheng hasn't returned to Lintianguan yet, it seems that he should have been caught by the court's scouting horse." ”

Shen Qiu: "Ah, I was caught by the imperial court, and Ren Pingsheng was in danger." Alas, I should have persuaded him to go with me, with the army, and at least take care of each other. It's all my fault. ”

Xu Ru: "Shenqiu City Lord, this has nothing to do with you, Ren Pingsheng is probably frightened by the army of the imperial court." ”

Shen Qiu: "Military advisor, can Ren Pingsheng be saved?" ”

Xu Ru: "Wait for this war to win and save Ren Ping."

It's not hard to be alive. You can rest for a few days, and in a few days you will go to Tianguan City to be the city lord. ”

Shen Qiu: "Okay, thank you Strategist." ”

Xu Ru: "Your ability, the prince knows, as long as you work hard, the prince will not treat you badly." ”

Shen Qiu: "Please rest assured, I, Shen Qiu, will definitely not live up to the trust of the prince." ”

Xu Ru: "You can go down and rest, and then leave Lintian Pass, now Lintian Pass is about to face war, and it is not suitable for a civil servant like you to stay here." ”

Shen Qiu: "Thank you to the military advisor, Weichen retired first." ”

Xu Ru: "Hmm. ”

After Shen Qiu left, Xu Ru: "Ren Pingsheng, Ren Pingsheng, he actually dared to run away in advance, abandon the army of Dongzhou, and save you, it is really a waste of Dongzhou's soldiers and horses." Let you die in the camp of the imperial court. ”

Xu Ru continued: "As for Shen Qiu, it seems that he is a manufacturable material, so I will test him for a while for the time being. If it's really good, leave him a position as an important minister in the future. ”

Shen Qiu thought as he walked: "This is the military advisor Xu Ru, it seems to be ordinary, but his eyes are really scary." However, the rebellious ministers and thieves are destined to be pacified by the army of the imperial court. ”
