Chapter 91: Overnight at the Wind Ridge Cliff
All the way to the west, cross the covered bridge, walk Surabaya, and detour to the bank of the Cangjiang River.
After a day and night of marching, the army led by Ye Shengji came to the place of Fengling Cliff unimpeded, seeing that it was already full of stars, and the soldiers were also a little tired, Ye Shengji gave an order: "Camp in place!"
At the sound of an order, the soldiers acted one after another, lighting a fire and setting up a tent, but at this time, a voice was heard at the very edge-
"Newspaperβ"
Then a soldier walked towards the position of the commander in a panic, and when he saw Ye Shengji, he knelt down with a "plop" and reported loudly: "Your Majesty, several more corpses have been found ahead!" looked like he was still a master of martial arts before he was alive, and he died in the jungle for some reason. The way to die is similar to before, it is all a sword to seal the throat! β
It turned out that along the way, many such corpses had been found along the road, and I didn't know why, at first I only thought it was a vendetta in the rivers and lakes, but I encountered more and more corpses along the way, and even the soldiers who followed behind found that something was unusual!
"I know. Set up camp on the spot and strengthen the night patrol defense. Don't be negligent! Otherwise, the military order will be disposed of. β
Ye Shengji's eyebrows sank, he thought for a moment, and ordered.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has been in the army for many years, and he has never encountered such a strange thing, do you want to investigate clearly before moving forward?"
Even the experienced General Xuanyuan Lang was a little hesitant.
"No, I can't. Before the battle was completed, grain and grass went first. When we go to the frontier, the battle line is already dragging on, and once we stop, we will definitely consume food, grass and manpower, and the gains outweigh the losses. It's better to walk and watch and be careful. β
Jiang Zhige frowned and blurted out.
Ye Shengji glanced at Jiang Zhige with appreciation, nodded and said, "Although this matter is strange, the loss of troops and manpower due to this incident outweighs the loss. According to Jiang Aiqing's words, he was stationed until dawn and continued to march. β
"Yes."
Xuanyuan Lang saw that Jiang Zhige had such far-reaching insights at such a young age, and he couldn't help but admire Jiang Zhige a little in his heart, and swept away his original contempt for her.
It was already the middle of the night, and three hours had passed, and most of the soldiers had fallen asleep, only the starry bonfire was beating.
Jiang Zhige had a military tent alone, and there were soldiers guarding outside, but she couldn't sleep, so she walked out of the military tent by herself, and also told the soldiers with her not to follow, just walk around at will.
Among the hundreds of military tents, only Ye Shengji's commander's military tent was lit up, presumably, for this battle, he also took a lot of thought, even in the middle of the night, he was also studying the lamp, completely ignoring the fatigue of running around during the day.
"It's really a master who only wants to win and not lose in the world."
Jiang Zhi singer was behind him, seeing this situation, he smiled, and said to himself with a little appreciation, and the steps under his feet had already unconsciously gone towards Ye Shengji's military tent.
In the military tent, he leaned over the desk, sometimes holding a pen to draw something on the drawing, sometimes happily touching the paper with the tip of the pen, and sometimes looking down and contemplating something, as if he was born to fight.
Born to be a king.
Jiang Zhige stood outside the tent, looking at his serious figure, and couldn't bear to disturb him, so he stood outside the military tent against the cold wind, thinking that it would be good to just watch quietly.
Helplessly, she can't get in, it's not that she has the final say.
She had just stood outside the tent for a while when she heard Xuanyuan's hearty voice behind her laughing, and then a thick palm slapped on her shoulder, causing her to snort softly!
But he heard the old general smile heartily and said, "Why is Jiang Gongzi standing outside the tent and not entering the tent?" It's cold and windy outside, what should I do if it's frozen? β
Jiang Zhige just wanted to avoid thanking him and walking away, but he heard Ye Shengji say, "Since you have arrived, why don't you come in?" β
"The old minister is coming in! This Jiang Gongzi not only has red lips and white teeth, but even his personality is a little shy, and the old man is a rough man, so he pulled her in. I hope that Your Majesty will not be surprised! β
The old general laughed, then pulled Jiang Zhige into the tent, and regardless of Jiang Zhige's red and white face, he said with a grin.
"The virtuous minister is here, I should have greeted him from afar, why should I blame it?"
Ye Shengji also laughed at it, glanced at Jiang Zhige meaningfully, and teased her with a wicked smile: "Isn't it that Jiang Gongzi has been peeking outside the tent for a long time, and this time he came in to offer an extremely wonderful idea?" β
Obviously, Ye Shengji didn't say a word about Jiang Zhige's love for him, but she seemed to have been caught, her eyes couldn't dodge, but crashed into his smile, which made her blush for no reason.
"Ahem, Your Majesty hasn't gone to bed late at night, isn't he discussing countermeasures for the war?"
Jiang Zhige saw that he couldn't hide, so he had to tear away the topic and take care of other things.
Ye Shengji didn't wipe away her face, just smiled evilly, and then said solemnly: "The old general might as well stand here, Jiang Ge, you stand on my left side." β
After the old general stood on the right side of Ye Shengji, he exclaimed as soon as he saw the drawings: "Your Majesty's genius has accurately marked every terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack!" β
"This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that His Majesty has chosen several relatively easy paths, but all of them have to pass through this place without exception!"
Jiang Zhige had a unique gaze, stretched out his hand, and pointed to a place on the drawing-Biancheng.
"Exactly."
Ye Shengzhen nodded slowly, his brows furrowed, and he frowned very old, before he said slowly: "I think, since our army must pass through here, it is inevitable that the enemy army will not let go of this place." β
"In other words, there must be a lot of danger here!"
The old general suddenly realized, slapped his thigh, and exclaimed!
"Exactly. I was thinking that if this place was taken, the morale of our army would inevitably increase greatly, and on the contrary, I was afraid that we would lose our troops! β
There was already a bit of worry between Ye Shengji's eyebrows.
"Your Majesty don't worry, if Your Majesty is relieved, the minister will send a team of soldiers and horses to explore, so as to pave the way for Your Majesty!"
The old general knelt down and asked for his life!
"No."
The old general thought it was Ye Shengji's words, but unexpectedly, Jiang Zhige shook his head and continued slowly: "Since this place is dangerous and extremely important, it doesn't matter whether you can find out the military situation or not. It's important that we don't get there until we get here. When you get here, you can't disperse your forces. In this battle, we can only fight hard, and change the combat strategy depending on the opportunity! β
"Your Majesty!"
The old general pleaded with some urgency.
"Old General, I think so too. There is no other way at the moment, and this city is still far away, and I really can't rest assured that you will go alone. This matter has to be considered in the long run. β
Ye Shengji bent down to help the old general.
"Your Majesty is sympathetic to his subordinates, and he is a generation of wise men. The minister is willing to die with all his might, and swear to follow His Majesty to the death! β
The old general kowtowed, a deep and affectionate salute!
