Chapter 372: Heavy Snow Drifting Kills the Quartet (8)

The snow along the way became heavier and heavier in Ling Yi's memories, and the whole sky became even darker, as if it would not fall for ten days and a half months, and the heavy snow would not stop.

Originally, snow was a normal thing, but now, Ling Yi didn't feel good.

Not to mention that this white snow evokes his feelings of longing, that is, the march and rescue, and the final retreat are not small problems.

In the snow, horses don't dare to go too fast, because no one knows what's in the ground under the snow.

From dusk, the army did not camp in a half-slope until midnight, and everyone raised the fire and snuggled up to each other to keep warm.

In the evening, it was okay, everyone fought bloodily, and the emotions were angry, and they didn't feel cold.

Now that midnight has arrived, the snow is even heavier, and even Ling Yi and a few people who have cultivated well feel a chill sweeping over their bodies!

Sitting next to the fire, Ah Hai boiled water in a kettle, Zhang Cheng baked a few flatbreads and jerky, and everyone sat together.

Ling Yi asked Zhang Cheng: "Brother Zhang, everyone's rations are sufficient, right?"

Zhang Cheng nodded and said: "The rations are enough, I still have a lot of reserves here and Ah Hai, so it's no problem." Even the military uniforms, when everyone came, they knew that this battle would definitely snow until it fell, so they all prepared cotton clothes and snowproof cloaks, so you can rest assured!"

Ling Yi can rest assured, in such a snowy weather, he is most afraid of running out of food and cold, and if he is not prepared enough, he may die on the snow-covered grassland.

"That's right!" Ling Yi seemed to think of something, and ordered: "Let the brothers drink less wine, it is good to keep out the cold with wine, but the next battle will not be careless!"

"I understand, I've been controlling the total amount for everyone all this time, and it won't be bad!" Zhang Cheng assured.

"That's good, let the brothers hurry up and rest, I estimate, at most two hours, we will set off, ensure good physical strength, take care of the injured brothers more, if it really doesn't work, use some pills, and ensure that the brothers are okay!"

Listening to Ling Yi's instructions, Zhang Chengcheng arranged for the horse to go down.

Staring at the fire, Ling Yi said lightly: "The next battle is the most critical battle!"

Hao Jun on the side also thought so, nodded, and said: "The Northern Wilderness has besieged Han Ce for so long and has not changed, even if Beiwei Pass and Tongshan Pass fail one after another, they have not acted, it is indeed worth pondering!"

These problems were also what Ling Yi was worried about, if he was Bu'er Chijin Tuoli, he might have already used the strength of his whole army to take down Han Ce when Tongshan Pass failed, and then find a way to attack Yanjing Pass.

But until now, Lingyi and the others haven't even seen the face of Bu'er Chijin Tuoli, which makes people wonder, what are the Northern Wilderness going to do?

Hou Aoxuan took over and said, "This question should be able to ask General Ding and them!"

At this moment, Ding Lifeng's voice sounded not far from the fire: "Do you have any questions to ask me?"

Ling Yi and the others immediately got up and saluted Ding Lifeng.

"Don't be restrained, you should have a good rest!" Ding Lifeng came to the fire, picked up a piece of jerky, ate it, and said, "Sit, sit!"

Everyone sat around the fire, waiting for Ding Lifeng to speak.

Ding Lifeng said while eating jerky: "In fact, when Han Ce drove straight into the extreme eastern grassland of the Northern Wilderness without the slightest hindrance, Prince Long had already anticipated today's situation!"

Ling Yi and the others were very shocked, and they didn't find anything when they personally investigated, and they knew that they finally knew about the plan of the Northern Wilderness, but Prince Long, who was far away in the sky, expected everything, which was also too terrifying!

"Don't be surprised, after you accumulate experience in the future, you can easily see that this Han Ce is a fan of the authorities, and he has made meritorious contributions to get to where he is today. ”

Regarding Ding Lifeng's evaluation of Han Ce, Ling Yi agreed very much.

Ding Lifeng continued: "That is, you flew the pigeon and passed the book back, and the state took a series of measures to deal with today's situation!"

Ling Yi and the others looked at Ding Lifeng curiously, waiting for him to continue to speak.

"Now the army of the state has been stationed on the Wanqing grassland!"

Ding Lifeng's words shocked Lingyi and them, and asked again and again: "Has the battle started over there in Bingzhou?"

"No!" Ding Lifeng replied.

"No?" Hou Aoxuan asked strangely, "Didn't you say that the army of Bingzhou was already stationed in the Wanqing Grassland?

Ding Lifeng replied: "Why fight, now is not the time to send troops to the state, now the use of troops is just a defeat for both sides, there is no point!"

"Isn't it time?" Hou Aoxuan pondered for a while and asked, "Could it be that the army of Bingzhou is only to contain the enemy?"

Ding Lifeng said appreciatively: "That's right, you are right, Bingzhou is now holding back the 400,000 troops of the Northern Wilderness!"

"400,000?" Ling Yi's people were shocked again, and hurriedly asked: "There are so many cavalry in the Northern Wilderness over there, it's terrifying! But although there are more than 200,000 troops in Bingzhou, but they are stationed at various checkpoints, and you support Youzhou, Wanqing Grassland is estimated to only have about 100,000 troops, can it confront the 400,000 army?"

"It's not like there were 400,000 enemy troops at the beginning, this number was only passed on today, and when we came out, there were only about 150,000 enemy troops there at most!" Ding Lifeng replied.

"150,000, 400,000?" Ling Yi seemed to understand something, and hurriedly asked, "General Ding, you mean that the city of the Far East actually doesn't have many troops, right?"

"That's right, just now my spies came to report that there were only about 50,000 cavalry blocking Han Ce's army, and it is estimated that there are only 100,000 cavalry in the Far East City! They are also overstretched now, otherwise they would not attack Dongsheng at the same time at three checkpoints, they are afraid of long nights and dreams! However, this dream is really a bit much, and it has not developed according to their intentions!"

After listening to Ding Lifeng's words, Lingyi and the others have generally understood the situation in the Northern Wilderness, Prince Long just waved the camp to the Wanqing Grassland, and did nothing, so he restrained the 400,000 army in the Northern Wilderness and solved the crisis in Youzhou!

Ling Yi had to admire, Wei Zhi was really powerful, but this was also because he was too terrifying in the hearts of the Northern Wilderness people, he was just 100,000 troops moving, and he involved 400,000 enemy troops, in exchange for others, 150,000 against 100,000, he would not be afraid at all!

"And the most important point, Jizhou also moved troops, and General Zou Peng's 50,000 cavalry and 100,000 troops arrived in Bingzhou, which is also one of the reasons for Beihuang's concerns. Under multiple circumstances, the Northern Wilderness is now chaotic. Ding Lifeng continued.

After listening to Ding Lifeng's words, Ling Yi instantly felt a lot more relaxed, at least 110,000 against 150,000 people, there was still a chance. What's more, his own side is just to save people, and he doesn't have to fight to break the net, as long as Han Ce is rescued, everything is much simpler.

Ding Lifeng let everyone talk for a while, and then said: "Now, I need you to do something!"

This should be the reason why Ding Lifeng came to find him, Ling Yi said: "Just tell me!"

Ding Lifeng said: "Your mount is fast, I hope you will go to the Far East City again to set a fire!"

"This ......" Ling Yi didn't know how to answer, the last time it was all based on the carelessness of the Northern Wilderness, and now their defense is definitely stronger, not to mention that if the martial saint of the Far East City finds out, he will only die!

"Why? Don't you dare?" asked Ding Lifeng.

"Well, it's not that you don't dare, but will the Northern Wilderness still give us such a chance?" Ling Yi replied.

Ding Lifeng said: "Actually, you're afraid of meeting a martial saint, right?"

Ling Yi could only nod, now the Martial Venerable powerhouse and their brothers are really not afraid, but the words of the Martial Saint, I have to say, they still don't dare to act rashly!

Ding Lifeng smiled and said: "Don't worry, before this, the martial saints all the way to the Far Eastern City have been restrained by the martial saints of the Dongsheng Empire, don't worry!"

"Is there really no Martial Saint?" Ling Yi asked.

"Didn't you fight the Martial Saint more than once, are you still afraid!" Ding Lifeng quipped.

"I said General Ding, I used to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, but now it's different, after being exposed once, it won't work, besides, my hole cards are all used up, and then I can only send them to death!"

"Then do you go or not?" asked Ding Lifeng.

"Why don't you go, but you can't go in vain!" Ling Yi said with a smile.

"Why do you still have to negotiate terms with me?" Ding Lifeng asked speechlessly.

"Hehe, don't I have something to ask for?" Ling Yi said with a grin.

"Is this your attitude of begging for someone? Let's talk about it first!" Ding Lifeng could only agree!

Ling Yi saw hope and said, "Before we came out to carry out this task, the prince promised to give me the power to expand the riffraff according to the completion situation!"

Ding Lifeng nodded and said, "I've heard of this, it seems that you already have three hundred in your hands, right?"

"That's right, but I still want to order more......" Ling Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at Ding Lifeng.

"You kid, the prince has agreed to give you power, what are you looking for me for?" Ding Lifeng asked, feeling faintly bad in his heart.

"It's nothing, it's just that on the basis of the prince's reward, General Ding is fighting for three hundred and five hundred!" Ling Yi said with a smile.

With a "poof", Ding Lifeng, who had just taken a sip of water, was squirted out angrily by Ling Yi: "You kid is making fun of me? Three hundred and five hundred, do I have that power?"

"It's not for you to give, it's for you to fight for me again!" Ling Yi said.

"Five hundred is not good, at most fifty!" Ding Lifeng said helplessly.

"Four hundred and ninety-nine!

"Are you negotiating? Only one concession will have to be at least a hundred!" Ding Lifeng shook his head speechlessly!

"Then follow the general's method, now the general is asking for one hundred and fifteen!" Ling Yi hurriedly said.

"Poof", Ding Lifeng was so angry again: "When did I say one hundred and five?"

"Didn't the general say one hundred at a time, and now it's your turn to ask for the price, isn't it one hundred and fifteen?" Ling Yi pretended to be stupid and snapped his fingers: "It's my turn, it's three hundred and ninety-nine, you see how well-behaved I am?"

"You kid, the price is two hundred, it can't be more!" Ding Lifeng really can't do anything about this child!

"Deal!" Ling Yi happily agreed!

"You kid monkey spirit!" Ding Lifeng said, "When are you going to leave?"

Ling Yi stood up excitedly and said, "Of course it's now, I'm afraid that the general will regret it!"
