Text Chapter 11 Barracks

"Let's go, let's go to the barracks. ”

Long Tian looked at General Nangong and said.

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince. ”

"Come on, prepare the horses!"

When Nangong Zhan heard this, he immediately asked his subordinates to prepare horses.

Not long after, a team of men and horses marched towards the military camp on the outskirts of the imperial city, Long Tian and General Nangong rode in front, and Nangong Youyou's carriage behind.

Jiang Ziya and the others scattered in all directions, protecting Long Tian, followed by a well-equipped army of more than 1,000 people.

While walking, Nangong Zhan had been thinking about how to test Long Tian to see what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was thinking and what countermeasures he had against the Northern Expedition rebellion.

After hesitating for a long time, Nangong Zhan couldn't help it after all.

"I wonder what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks about this rebellion in Beizhou?"

Nangong Zhan thought for a while, and after organizing the language, he said tentatively.

Long Tian stared at Nangong Zhan.

This glance seemed to penetrate Nangong Zhan's heart, making Nangong Zhan, who was being stared at, cramped for a while.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes are so sharp, how do you feel like facing His Majesty's gaze. ”

Nangong Zhan said secretly in his heart.

Long Tian was silent for a while, and after sorting out his thoughts, he said: "Our troops in this rebellion are only 500,000, while Beizhou has a million troops. If we face each other, it will be very difficult for us to win. But this time we only take the Tiger Pass, and the certainty of victory is still very large, and I estimate that there are about 200,000 to 300,000 troops on the Tiger Pass. ”

General Nangong saw Long Tian's estimate of the strength of the Tiger Pass in this way, and asked curiously: "Why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince estimate that there are only 200,000 to 300,000 troops in the Tiger Pass?

"I don't have it, but I can guess a few points, although the Tiger Pass is the gateway to Beizhou, but a Tiger Pass is not enough for the King of Zhenbei to invest a lot of troops, after all, there are one hundred and twenty cities in Beizhou, even if it is only to guard the outer cities, a large number of troops are needed. ”

Long Tian replied.

After Long Tian finished speaking, he saw that General Nangong was still looking at him suspiciously.

So Long Tian continued: "There must be spies in Beizhou who have discovered that our counterinsurgency force is only about 500,000, and as long as the king of Zhenbei thinks that 200,000 or 300,000 troops can resist our counterinsurgency army for a year, then he will definitely not risk transferring troops from other places to pass." As for how to make the king of Zhenbei think that as long as two or three hundred thousand troops can withstand our army of 500,000 for a year, it depends on General Nangong's arrangement. ”

From Beizhou's point of view, as long as the counterinsurgency army of Long Tian is blocked for a period of time, and when the Origin Emperor dies, there will be a brief period of leaderlessness in the Origin Dynasty, and the major restless forces of the Origin Dynasty will definitely jump out as soon as possible.

At that time, the Origin Dynasty was in turmoil, and at that time it was the time for Beizhou to counterattack.

General Nangong heard Long Tian say this, then thought for a while, and then suddenly said: "The minister will show weakness to the enemy and deceive Beizhou." It's just that I'm afraid that this will affect the morale of the military. ”

"It's really a problem. ”

Long Tian felt that Nangong Zhan was reasonable.

"Then dare to ask His Royal Highness the Prince, how do you plan to take the Tiger Pass then?"

Nangong Zhan asked again.

When Long Tian heard this, he thought about it for a while.

"Attacking a city is far more difficult than defending it, and if you don't have more than twice as many troops as the defenders, it will definitely be a difficult battle. ”

Long Tian said this because there was a rule on the battlefield by default.

That is, a cultivator of a high realm must not attack a soldier for no reason, just like the truth that a nuclear bomb in a previous life cannot be used casually.

Who disobeys the Collusion!

"Then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks that what exactly will be done with the 500,000 troops of our army?"

General Nangong asked.

"I think it's better to discuss it with the generals in the army. After all, no matter what Prince Ben says alone, it's just on paper. ”

Long Tian glanced at General Nangong meaningfully.

Nangong Zhan was relieved when he heard that Long Tian had the intention of brainstorming, he was afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was young and vigorous, and he liked to act arbitrarily, and he would hurt himself when the time came.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be like this, and the old minister is relieved, and I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not blame the minister for his previous rude behavior. ”

General Nangong said guiltily.

He naturally said that he didn't want to let go of military power in Long Tian's move before, if it weren't for Nangong Youyou suddenly jumping out and interrupting the battle between Long Tian and Nangong at that time, I don't know how long the two would have to argue.

"Prince Ben is not a stingy person, but I don't want General Nangong to continue to stumble on Prince Ben in the future, how can Prince Ben come out and pretend to be B if he doesn't have a little ink in his heart. ”

Long Tian said proudly.

"Dare to ask His Royal Highness the Prince, what does it mean to pretend to be b?"

General Nangong was puzzled.

Long Tian heard General Nangong's question and coughed twice in embarrassment.

"Ahem, it's not interesting. This prince has a spectrum in his heart and will not act recklessly, and General Nangong can assist this prince with peace of mind. ”

Hearing Long Tian's explanation, General Nangong was relieved.

Then he said: "It turns out that the minister blames His Royal Highness the Prince, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not acting rashly to seize the military power, but the minister is too worried." ”

Long Tian and General Nangong were chatting while walking, and an hour passed unconsciously, but they always arrived at the barracks.

The military camp on the outskirts of the imperial city, this military camp is a temporary military village, but it is impregnable, even if Xuanzun Ninefold Peak comes to sneak attack, it can be defended, and there are secret soldiers inside and outside the barracks.

The entire barracks were drowned out by the sound of the army's training slogans, and the five people, including Long Tian and Jiang Ziya, who came to the barracks for the first time, were shocked by the magnificent sound of drills before they approached the barracks.

Seeing the shocked expressions of Long Tian and the others, General Nangong smiled slightly and said, "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think?"

"Very well, just by listening to the sound of the drill, you can guess the momentum of the army. ”

Long Tian sighed.

"Brother Prince, where is this, it's so noisy outside. ”

At this time, Nangong Youyou, who was sitting in the carriage, walked out, only to see her covering her ears with a pair of slender hands, and her eyes showed pity.

Nangong Youyou heard the earth-shattering sound of drills coming from the barracks, and was curious and scared.

"This is the barracks, stay in the carriage first, I'll go to the barracks with General Nangong, and when I come out, let's go and play together, okay." ”

Long Tian looked at Nangong and said softly.

"Okay, then Brother Prince has to come out quickly!"

Nangong Youyou said with a frown. She didn't like this kind of place.

"Ziya, you and Yingbu protect Youyou well, and there must be no half-point difference. ”

Long Tian said solemnly to Jiang Ziya and the four of them.

"Yes!"

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, rest assured, we will protect Miss Nangong well. She will never be allowed to lose half a hair. ”

Jiang Ziya said confidently.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, please come inside. ”

General Nangong said to Long Tian.

Long Tian nodded and walked towards the barracks.

Along the way, everyone who met Long Tian and General Nangong saluted respectfully. It's just a salute to Nangong Zhan.

"I've seen the general!"

"See the general!"

"General, are you here?"

"The Last General Met the General"

Originally, General Nangong didn't want to steal the limelight from Long Tian like this, but after the first person recognized General Nangong, General Nangong just wanted to say that the person next to him was His Royal Highness the Prince, but was stopped by Long Tian waving his hand.

At this time, he had already reached a place where no one was around, and General Nangong couldn't help but ask.

"I wonder why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here?"

Long Tian said calmly: "For the time being, Prince Ben doesn't want the soldiers to know my identity. ”

General Nangong asked puzzledly, "Why is this?"

"How can there be so many whys, this prince doesn't want to see any special performance of the soldiers because of the identity of this prince, this prince wants to see the usual level of these soldiers. ”

Long Tian said impatiently. It can be seen that Long Tian is still slightly unhappy.

When General Nangong heard this, he thought with a wry smile in his heart: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really troubled. ”

Long Tian didn't know what General Nangong was thinking, so he continued to be inspected by General Nangong with Long Tian.

During the inspection, Long Tian did not hesitate to praise himself, and he was about to praise Nangong Zhan to the point of blushing.

On the whole, Long Tian was very satisfied with this inspection of the barracks.

After the inspection was almost done, General Nangong took Long Tian into the commander's tent in the army, and ordered the soldiers to go and inform the generals in the army.

In the tent, Long Tian sat on the main seat, and General Nangong sat on the second seat.

Soon the generals of the army arrived one after another. When the generals entered the account, they were startled when they first saw Long Tian on the main seat, but then they saw Nangong Zhan on the second seat, so they calmed down and found a place to sit down.

Half a quarter of an hour later

"Are all the people here?" Long Tian saw that the camp tent was almost full, so he turned his head to look at Nangong Zhan and asked.

After hearing this, Nangong Zhan glanced at the generals in the tent.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, there is still one person left. "Nangong Zhandao.

"Send someone to call again. Long Tian said calmly.

"Yes. After Nangong Zhan answered, he ordered another soldier to summon him.

Waited for nearly a quarter of an hour.

Long Tian was already impatient at this time, squinting his eyes and knocking on the armrest of the seat.

Knock knock

I only heard the sound of knocking getting louder and louder, and I could hear Nangong Zhan and the generals in the tent jumping in fear.

"Humph!"

Long Tian snorted coldly, and the frightened Nangong Zhan and the generals were all "poofed" as if they had been hit by a heavy object.

"What's going on, waiting for him alone is half a quarter of an hour slower than waiting for all the generals. What a big shelf!"

Long Tian said coldly.
