Chapter 67: A New Line of Attack
However, this woman is not an irrelevant person. General Cao Xuanliang and my father are close friends! General Cao Xuanliang has also told my father many times to take good care of Yunmeng, and my father finally broke his promise!" Zheng Xianyue's beautiful eyes trembled slightly, "General Cao Xuanliang is such a strong person, he has never cried in his life, but that time he cried, and he was full of gray hair overnight. ”
In the next few days, the order of the Dragon and Tiger list has changed a lot. A mysterious general in the Eternal Empire single-handedly broke into the Changmen Pass and demanded a duel with General Cao Xuanliang, surprisingly, the undefeated General Cao was completely defeated, and even after the war, General Cao disappeared, some people said that he had died in battle, and others said that he left Changmen Pass with a wild laugh, and his name never appeared on the Dragon and Tiger List again.
Until many years later, many people saw him lying on a small boat on the Qianqiu Lake in Tianlong City, but that was the last time someone said that they saw him, and then he disappeared completely, leaving only a sentence on the stone by the Four Seasons Pavilion in the center of the lake - sigh for the thousands of years but reckless, watching the mountains and rivers of the four seasons and love doves!"
"Sigh for thousands of years, but reckless, watching the mountains and rivers of the four seasons and love doves ......"
Wu Ming couldn't help but recite it in his mouth, Zheng Xianyue said this, Wu Ming remembered that when King Carl invited him to go to the Qianqiu Four Seasons Pavilion, there was such a pair of golden couplets on both sides of the pavilion, but combined with what the county lord said, it is estimated that someone copied the words on the stone and then engraved them on the pavilion.
Wu Ming listened to Zheng Xianyue's description, combined with the situation he encountered, and felt more and more that something was wrong in his heart, all kinds of passers-by heard about it, and the last time passers-by met? Obviously, the old man is at your house to help you take care of the library, how can you say as if you don't know?
No, it's even more wrong, before Wu Ming thought about it carefully, the old man who called himself Cao Xuanliang left when the Mingyue County Lord knocked on the door, if it was an ordinary old man who was in charge of the library, there was no need to avoid it so deliberately.
"Didn't you ask how this Cao Meng could become my subordinate?" Zheng Xianyue smiled slightly, "General Cao once led his troops to rescue a small village, but when he arrived, it was too late, and everyone in the village was slaughtered, only this child remained, and General Cao received him to raise him under his knees, named Cao Meng."
"General Cao has always been poor and thrifty, even if there are few servants, when he disappeared, Cao Meng was helpless, my father took him in and took care of him, perhaps because of the guilt of not saving Yunmeng, my father included him under my command. ”
"So, to a certain extent, I used him as an adjutant, not only because of his extraordinary command talent, but also because I helped my father pay off his debts. ”
If he can win a big victory this time, it should be easy to ask for the position of a young general, but if he is defeated even so, then it is really fate. ”
"County Lord!" Wu Ming said with a serious face.
"What's the matter, suddenly called so officially......"
"Is there an old man in the library of your Xianwang Mansion who is there to take care of it?"
"Hey?" Zheng Xianyue couldn't understand the leap of Wu Ming's thinking, but she still thought about it for a while, and replied: "Since I can remember it as a child, I have never heard that the library is guarded by a special person, but there are some guards who are responsible for patrolling the library area full-time. ”
Of course, the old man's appearance can't be a guard, and there may be something else in between.
I still remember the last time I saw the old man, the county lord was about to enter the library, and the old man said Cao Cao before leaving, Cao Cao arrived. The only people who can know this sentence and the person in the words are probably only people from their own world, Wu Ming doesn't believe that there is also a hero named Cao Cao in the world here.
Could it be that this General Cao Xuanliang is also a person from his own world? Suddenly, the thoughts in Wu Ming's mind were like a brain paste, and they were all chaotic.
"County Lord, since the enemy's army has temporarily retreated, does the county lord want to pursue it again?" Wang Yue caught up with the mounts of Wu Ming and Zheng Xianyue, and said with some concern, "After all, the enemy army led by General Han Yi this time is very large, even if it retreats like this, it is difficult to ensure that it will not be deceitful. ”
As soon as the words came out, Wang Yue regretted it, because he had put down the big words before, but he was almost swallowed by the black dragon Sagra, Wang Yue felt embarrassed, so he was dull all the way, and at this time he said such depressing words, it would seem too timid and incompetent.
Wang Yue blushed and hurriedly explained, "Although it is okay for the last general to die, if the county lord is allowed to put himself in danger, then the general will really die and cannot escape the blame." ”
"What General Wang said is reasonable, but the county lord led the army to aid Changmen Pass, not just to come and see," Zheng Xianyue snorted coldly, "This trip must make it difficult for the Black Domain to turn over, and to deal with disobedient countries, it should be beaten obediently!"
Wang Yue's eyes lit up, the county lord said so arrogantly, could it be that the county lord already had the next plan in his heart?" "The county lord wants to catch up with Han Yi?"
"No need," Zheng Xianyue asked rhetorically, "Where does General Wang Yue think Han Yi will retreat if he retreats?"
"Han Yi is now the closest to the Black Domain Fan Cliff Pass, could it be that he is going there to regroup?"
Zheng Xianyue shook her head, "In the eyes of Han Yi and the others, our army was able to destroy the Black Dragon Sagra in a very short period of time, which means that we have at least dozens of grandmasters, or equivalent combat power, and in the case of unknown combat power between the enemy and us, this very likely force is terrifying." Although the Fan Cliff Pass is close, it is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and it is difficult to shelter them, and the best place to go is only Qingxuan City, which is a little far away from here, but can be reached in a few days. Now that our army is all light cavalry, it is completely possible to take another route, and even reach Qingxuan City one step earlier than them. ”
Wang Yue slapped his leg and laughed when he heard this, "What the county lord said is very true, since this is the case, let the last general come first to open the way for the county lord." ”
"There's General Lao Wang!"
"Drive!"
Wang Yue shouted, led the vanguard, and left at a faster speed.
"What an anxious person. Wu Ming said softly.
Zheng Xianyue smiled lightly, "Although I am anxious, it is not without strategy, to a certain extent, most of the qualities that my father can fancy will not be too bad." ”
"Your father fancies?"
"Hmm. ”
"Then did your father take a fancy to me?" Wu Ming asked with a grimace.
Zheng Xuanyue's face was peachy, and she couldn't help but snort softly, "Hmph, when did your speech become so clever?" After speaking, he put aside his pretty face and ignored Wu Ming.
