Chapter 579: Go and collect grain

Although the situation has stabilized, there are still many matters that need to be dealt with, if it weren't for Lan Feng's care, Lin Xuanzhong would have to be dispatched at any time with other generals. In the case that he didn't have to accept the above tasks and handed over the affairs of the headquarters to Yu Tong and Zhang Jiutian, Lin Xuanzhong was still relatively leisurely, and only needed to pay attention to the situation of the headquarters occasionally.

Time passed little by little, and a day later, the information of those who were going to be sent to Yiguo to collect grain and grass was confirmed, and Zhao Xu was going to send 15,000 people. Half of the new army and half of the old army, led by Yan Nantian, the commander of the arrow battalion, and the generals below are all new generals, and the proportion of the number is more than the number of troops sent, Zhao Xu's move is to train the ability of those generals to do things, Lin Xuanzhong is just among the new generals.

At first, Lin Xuanzhong didn't want to stay in the army, but now it seems even worse to travel, thinking that there may be no time to practice martial arts on the march, Lin Xuanzhong still prefers to stay in the army. But this is the military order above, Lin Xuanzhong can't disobey it, and this time Fang Qing and the others can't help Lin Xuanzhong talk to the higher-level higher-ups again. So, the matter was completely settled.

After receiving the official military order, Lin Xuanzhong, Yu Tong and Zhang Jiutian prepared, and they had a small number of newly replenished recruits. As the one with the least loss of personnel, the headquarters will naturally not be disbanded, unlike the situation of Lin Xuanzhong's department, many other soldiers have been dispersed and reorganized.

Lin Xuanzhong had already seen the more than 3,300 soldiers in the headquarters, and as for those new faces, they didn't attract Lin Xuanzhong's attention. In the past few days, Lin Xuanzhong didn't even guide them in training. However, after those soldiers saw Lin Xuanzhong, they all showed reverent eyes, as if they were looking at a hero, which made Lin Xuanzhong feel uncomfortable.

Anyway, as a wolf general, Lin Xuanzhong's identity has been affirmed by other battalion generals, and he is no longer the person who was only looked down upon by others in the army before. After leaving the queue, the performance of those soldiers made Lin Xuanzhong feel a lot more comfortable in the army. Thinking about it again, with my current identity, many things are developing in a good direction, but unfortunately it is not the direction I want.

I will leave in three days, and now I just came to inspect it, and the next training will be handed over to Yu Tong and Zhang Jiutian, and Lin Xuanzhong will go back to prepare.

Because he couldn't be sure of the safety of the grain requisition from Yiguo, before leaving, Lin Xuanzhong wanted to see his acquaintances in the army again, especially Qingyi, Lin Xuanzhong hadn't had a good chat with Qingyi for a while, and he didn't know much about some of Qingyi's situation.

After meeting, Lin Xuanzhong learned that as a famous archer in the arrow camp, Qing Yi had been exceptionally promoted to deputy general, responsible for guiding a soldier's practice of archery. Of course, the change of identity is not the main aspect, for Lin Xuanzhong, the most important thing is the change of Qingyi's temperament.

may have been in the army for too long and was too affected by the atmosphere in the army, but now Qingyi's changes are obvious. When he saw Qingyi for the first time, Lin Xuanzhong saw the kind of temperament unique to a soldier in Qingyi.

I didn't expect to see each other for a month or two, and Qingyi had changed so much, which made Lin Xuanzhong feel impressed. Based on the friendship between the two, Lin Xuanzhong is not used to the feeling of staying with Qingyi now. But in the end, Lin Xuanzhong can still understand, after all, Qingyi has to bear more pressure than himself.

Next, after the two communicated normally, Lin Xuanzhong found that Qing Yi had not changed much except for his temperament, and there was not much difference between him and before, so he was naturally closer. After chatting about some things, Lin Xuanzhong said goodbye to Qing Yi, and then asked Fang Qing and them to visit Bai Ye together.

After a period of recuperation, Bai Ye's injuries had improved a lot, and they didn't need to worry about it anymore. After saying goodbye to Bai Ye, it was finally the turn to say goodbye to Fang Qing and the others, this time he went to Yiguo to collect grain, and Lin Xuanzhong led the army to rush there without a friend accompanying him.

Ling Zimo and the others who joined the headquarters before, two of them continued to stay in the headquarters, but Ling Zimo and the other two had been transferred, and Lin Xuanzhong was not familiar with the Ling brothers who stayed behind.

Regarding this grain requisition, the most uneasy thing about Lin Xuanzhong is Princess Lan Xin, blindly emphasizing that Lin Xuanzhong is alone and must protect himself, Princess Lan Xin is like a little daughter-in-law, reminding Lin Xuanzhong of all the places that should be paid attention to.

Having said that, Fang Qing and the others were also very worried about Lin Xuanzhong's safety, because it was inevitable that there would be some individuals or forces in the Wing Kingdom who hated the Night Army and might attack the army and pose a threat to Lin Xuanzhong and them. Although Lin Xuanzhong's current strength is already very strong, he still can't be reassured, so he also constantly tells Lin Xuanzhong to protect himself.

At the request of Princess Lan Xin, in the end, Fang Qing and Ni Youbin even proposed to go together, but Lin Xuanzhong refused. This time, Lin Xuanzhong just wanted to go alone, and by the way, he thought about some problems clearly, and as for what kind of situation he would encounter after he went, he could only know after he went to Yiguo.

After saying goodbye to a group of friends, Lin Xuanzhong returned to his residence, and Lin Xuanzhong just waited for the army to set off.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day of departure, and Lin Xuanzhong and his army of 15,000 people set off on time under the leadership of Yan Nantian.

As a new tiger general, Yan Nantian is responsible for collecting grain. And the reason why Zhao Xu chose Yan Nantian was because Zhang Dada's strategy was not enough, and secondly, because Fang Quyin lacked guts, as for the rest of the infantry camp master Li Jianran was still recuperating from his injuries. In addition, during the decisive battle, Yan Nantian led reinforcements to attack from the rear of the wing army, bringing hope of victory to the night army, so among several main generals, Yan Nantian was the most suitable person to be responsible for collecting food at the moment.

A full fifteen thousand people, led by Yan Nantian. Below Yan Nantian are nine generals and eighteen adjutant generals, and in terms of senior officers, the overall strength should not be underestimated. This time he went to the Wing Country, Yan Nantian's main task was to collect grain and grass, and the second was to collect materials for making golden scale arrows. As for the cities where the Night Army is going, as long as no one resists, the Night Army will not use force.

This time he went to the border of Yiguo, Yan Nantian's only worry was whether Yiguo would send someone to assassinate him secretly, so he also brought a certain number of golden scale arrows on this trip to protect Yan Nantian's safety.

Early this morning, 15,000 sergeants were assembled outside the camp, including 2,000 cavalry, 3,000 archers, and the rest were infantry. Before leaving, Lin Xuanzhong officially said goodbye to Princess Lan Xin and others.

"Brother Lin, take care," looking at Lin Xuanzhong who was sitting on the horse, Fang Qing and the others said goodbye one by one, to say that it was Princess Lan Xin who was most reluctant to leave Lin Xuanzhong. When I came to Beast Ridge Pass this time, I didn't meet Lin Xuanzhong many times, and I didn't stay together for a long time after each meeting. In a blink of an eye, Lin Xuanzhong was about to leave again, and she didn't know how long it would take to say goodbye, Princess Lan Xin was very reluctant in her heart, and of course she was a little worried.

"Take care," sitting on the horse, Lin Xuanzhong responded to a few people with a smile, while silently keeping everyone's familiar faces in mind, they are all Lin Xuanzhong's closest people outside, they have always made Lin Xuanzhong feel no longer lonely, no longer cold, Lin Xuanzhong actually wanted to thank them, but in the end he could only turn into a voice, "Take care." ”

Today's farewell, for Lin Xuanzhong, it is not just as simple as leaving Fang Qing and them for a while, Lin Xuanzhong will think about what to do in the future when he goes to Yiguo.

Not long after, under the watchful eyes of Fang Qing and them, Lin Xuanzhong rode away and caught up with the team in front.

"General, you're here," Zhang Jiutian greeted back in the queue. Because he is in the army, Zhang Jiutian's address to Lin Xuanzhong is naturally more formal, of course, there is no need to do so in private.

"Well," nodded, Lin Xuanzhong glanced at the road ahead, a long deserted road leading into the distance, with no end.

"General, do you know how long we are going to the Wing Country this time?"

"A month," a month is the approximate time that Yan Nantian said, but Lin Xuanzhong also heard Yan Nantian say that if everything goes well, he may not even need a month. But if you get into trouble, it may take a month or two or more. No matter how long it takes, it is enough for Lin Xuanzhong to think clearly about where to go in the future.

"Does the general think our trip will go well?"

"The situation over there is not clear for the time being, and we will not be able to judge until then. ”

"I see," Zhang Jiutian nodded understandingly, while not asking any more. Although Lin Xuanzhong didn't say much, the information he gave was enough for Zhang Jiutian to guess the current situation.

There was nothing to do all the way, and in the evening, Yan Nantian ordered to camp on the spot, more than 10,000 people, except for a few general's tents, everyone else had to spend the night in the open air. It's autumn now, and the night will be a little cool, but it won't rain, so it's okay for the soldiers below to wear more clothes and rest outside for the night.

After the temporary camp was set up, Yan Nantian set up sentry posts everywhere to monitor the situation around the camp, and the people below would report as long as they found any disturbances. Some time ago, the 30,000 former troops led by Zhang Yitong were attacked by beasts, which has become a lesson from the past, and now Yan Nantian will never allow a similar situation to occur.

When it was time to rest at night, there were many people in the barracks who were responsible for taking turns to guard the guard, and Yan Nantian had clearly ordered that no one should slack off, otherwise they would be dealt with by military law. Although such a strict requirement would have caused many soldiers to suffer, it was worth the effort for the safety of the entire camp.

After dinner, lying in the camp tent, he kept thinking that he was in an extremely empty environment, Lin Xuanzhong was not used to it, and there were many noisy soldiers talking outside the camp tent, which made Lin Xuanzhong a little uneasy for a while. Not long after, he got up from the ground bunk, changed into light clothes, and walked out of the camp tent with his weapon.

"General, are you going out for a walk?" As soon as the tent was opened, Zhang Jiutian happened to come to meet him.
