It turns out that the Great Yongguo has been stable as a rock for hundreds of years, because of the implementation of checks and balances everywhere.

For example, the left and right villages will naturally not be handed over to a main general, but He Lu, who was born as a civil official, will be the chief general of Shanyin Village to check and balance Shanyang Village.

After casually communicating for a while, there were no other clues, so the three of them refused General Xue Hu's retention and returned to camp in the black armor army at the bottom of the mountain.

As for the corpse of the deserter, Xue Hu and the others felt unlucky, so they simply threw it to He Lu.

In Xue Hu's words: "Doesn't he love soldiers like a son? Then give it to him for burial. ”

On the second day, down the mountain, the cannon roared.

Xue Hu was awakened by the sound of the cannon and couldn't help but scold his mother.

It's just that since he woke up, he simply patrolled the camp.

Xue Long got up earlier than him, and was on the wall, watching the black armor army under the mountain march towards the opposite Shanyin Village.

On the other side of the long river, under the Shanyin Village, the river valley is wide, and the soldiers of the Shanyin Village are sparsely arranging the military formation, lining up in a long line for a while, forming a square for a while, or changing it into a circular triangle with the sound of cannons, and so on.

"Big brother, look, it's started on the other side again." Xue Long pointed to the soldiers below Shanyin Village.

"What is the use of this kind of military formation, talking on paper?" Xue Hu looked indifferently at the black-armored army that was gradually merging with the soldiers of Shanyin Village.

"Scholars mislead the country!" Xue Hu nodded at the other side.

Xue Long didn't dare to talk on the side, after all, he didn't know that the eldest brother was referring to Helu...... Or the Chu River.

"Put other things aside for the time being, the food, and then urge it tighter." Xue Hu instructed.

"Big brother, there really isn't much production outside the Sai, are we pushing Ba Ri'er too hard.?" Xue Long asked.

"Pressed too hard? Lao Tzu just wanted to force him to death, he couldn't stand it, so he went out to rob him! Make a mess out of the outside, the more messy the better. Xue Hu patted the wall under him: "Either the Hu people die, or, let's die." ”

……

After Song Nian and the others crossed the river, they heard the rumbling sound of cannons, and when they passed through Peach Blossom Village, Song Nian also knew that this was just a kind of large "firecracker". It's just that the sound is deafening.

When he saw the military drill, Song Nian was quite curious, and stood on the wheel and looked at it a few more times.

"Lord Song, these military formations are all left by the founding ancestors of my Great Yongguo, with spears to resist the enemy on the outside, and crossbowmen to hurt people inside, as stable as Mount Tai." Zhao Da proudly showed off to Song Nian.

"That's amazing." Song Nian's brain made up for it, and he felt very feeling, and he really wanted to think about what kind of phalanx in Western movies.

"Why don't we practice with the Black Armor Army?"

"Lord Song doesn't know that this kind of military formation method seems to be complete, but it is actually quite cumbersome, and it needs a large area of flat land for drills and formations, which has long been abandoned." Lin Lao also got out of the carriage and nodded at the mountains and rivers not far away: "When the two armies meet, where is the time to set up a formation?" What's more, the terrain of the border areas is complex, the mountains and rivers are undulating, and there are not so many places for them to set up their positions. ”

Song Nian understood a little, no wonder such a thing as the military formation was eliminated.

He Luben watched the military drill on the wall, and when he saw the black armor army coming over, he hurriedly went down to greet him.

Song Nian looked all the way, and sure enough, he found that the soldiers on the side of Shanyin Village were much thinner than those on Xue Long and Xue Hu's side, and although the military formation drill was skillful, the soldiers were listless one by one, just following the signal of the military formation and the transfer of the position of the machinery.

When I entered the village, I found that this Shanyin village was in disrepair for a long time, and many of the walls of the village were weathered and collapsed under the wind and sun.

If you want to talk about the advantages, it is...... The cleaning was very clean, and many places were transplanted with small trees, and the arrangement was very atmospheric.

Moreover, the village is relatively quiet, and I don't want to go over to Shanyang Village, so I often fight and quarrel.

He Lu welcomed several people to the lobby, and as soon as Song Nian entered the lobby, he saw that the lobby was empty, with only a huge side map hanging in the center. This side map takes the Shanyin Village and Shanyang Village of Sanchuankou as the core, and the momentum is magnificent, and the side walls of the mountains, rivers and cities are all visible.

On either side of the map, there is a pair of wild grass couplets.

The strokes of the dragon and the phoenix dance, the momentum is extraordinary.

"But to make the dragon city fly, not called Humadu Yin Mountain." Song Nian read it out softly.

Unexpectedly, this poem is also circulated in this world.

He Lu smiled and introduced: "Master Song has also heard this poem? Dragon City Flying General...... My friend once said that as a border general, he should be like a flying general in Longcheng, like a bird flying deep into the vast desert, killing the enemy chieftain, so that he does not dare to step into the Yin Mountain. ”

"Into the desert? Zheyin Mountain? "Song Nian doesn't feel quite right, this doesn't seem to be the same as the poems in his previous life.

"Zheyin Mountain is the holy land of the Saiwaihu people, located in the depths of the desert. It is said that all the ancestors of the Hu people were born at the foot of Zheyin Mountain. In the past, General Long led 10,000 elite soldiers through the desert and directly attacked the Yin Mountain, turning this holy land of the Hu people into ruins, making the Hu people cry every day. Since then, no Hu people have dared to violate my frontier. Chu He said lightly.

Well, it's still a bunch of hawks...... Song Nian felt that he needed to refresh his understanding of Chu He and He Lu.

"General He's handwriting is very good." Song Nian could only praise his words, anyway, she had no interest in expanding the territory even if it was far away.

"It was also given to me by a friend, and I was in a passionate mood and wrote it at will, and I smiled." Although He Lu said this, Song Nian just felt that he was very satisfied with this pair of words.

Hmph, these literati......

Now that he had arrived at Shanyin Village, Song Nian asked some things about the messenger and the secret letter as usual.

originally thought that He Lu was a sour scholar, but he didn't expect that when Song Nian asked about these things, He Lu was really proficient.

"Is the Shamanism of the Saiwaihu people? Being on the border, you have to be more or less familiar. He Lu talked about sex and introduced to Song Nian: "The Hu people live in the bitter cold land outside the Saiwai, in fact, life is difficult, not only the infant mortality rate is extremely high, even if they are lucky to survive, it is difficult to live more than forty years old. It's like old Ba Ri'er, you see that he thinks he is in his sixties, but in fact...... Only forty-two years old. ”

Song Nian nodded slightly, he couldn't imagine that life outside the Seychelles was so difficult.

He Lu continued: "Therefore, the Hu people often say that the sea of blood is renewed, and there is no fear of death, fighting bravely, and worshipping fertility, although there are many deaths, as long as there is an endless stream of the living, the race will not perish. ”

Song Nian nodded slightly. That's right.

"Nahu people...... But when the moon is full, do you like to sacrifice? Since he met an expert, Song Nian opened the content of the secret letter and consulted it.

"The Hu people do not have such a calendar, and the desert is vast, and it is extremely difficult to transmit information, so the Hu tribe is often divided into small tribes due to water and grass, and only on the night of the full moon will they rush back to the holy land of the tribe to hold sacrifices. This kind of sacrifice is of great significance to the Hu people. If you go outside, be careful. ”
