Chapter 215: Nalan is popular
A few days later, the army on the border of Yueli had already set out, and a great battle was about to break out. And just when the battle on the front line was hot, a team of 1,000 people was slowly marching in the rear.
Yes, this team is Zhao Yulong's grain and grass team. Sometimes this world is so strange, I just stayed and listened to General Nangong talk about the tactical arrangement, but I didn't want to get so much attention.
He not only allocated more than 1,000 orthodox soldiers to himself, but also arranged a relatively stable task for Zhao Yulong, escorting grain and grass in the rear.
This is indeed a good errand, because there is no need to go to the front line to fight, and this means that Zhao Yulong has more time to train these soldiers.
Although he didn't know how to fully train these soldiers in place, how to arouse their tacit understanding. But he knew the formations of arranging troops to fight, and Meng Liang happened to know how to manage a small team, and with the assistance of these regular soldiers, the previous hundred people became more and more like a soldier.
And this is what Zhao Yulong wants to see the most, after all, only when the soldiers are strong, on the battlefield can they use their formations completely, and only in this way can they achieve victory.
And now that they've clearly done their studies, it's time to pull down the front lines of the battlefield and give it a try. And it just so happens that this pile of military rations is the last pile of military rations, once this is transported, Zhao Yulong and their team will almost be transported to the battlefield, and then it will be the time for them to show their skills.
However, it seems that not every time the grain and grass are transported smoothly, after all, the army has now entered the interior of the enemy country. Therefore, if they want to be Zhao Yulong, their team has already entered the encirclement of the enemy country.
After all, the purpose of the expeditionary force is to conquer the enemy country, destroy its kingdom and depose their emperor, not occupy all the cities one by one, after all, it would be too troublesome. So in fact, many enemy troops have not been eliminated, and they are still roaming around here in small groups.
Unfortunately, Zhao Yulong's grain and grass team was targeted by them, and they saw that this team was marching slowly, but they heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them.
There is no doubt that the army that can appear in this place is definitely not the army of the imperial state, because the main force has already gone to attack the imperial capital, so there will basically not be too many imperial troops here.
And this army appeared here, and the momentum was very huge, it must be only the team of the Blood Demon Alliance. Since the alliance of several vassal states of the demon race, their team has been reorganized, and the strength of the current team is completely two levels of concept from the past, so this makes Zhao Yulong very worried.
Fortunately, from the sound of horses' hooves, it was clear that this team was not very strong, and their number was at most five thousand. But it's also a terrifying number.
Although the military talents of their generals are not necessarily as superb as those of the Wolftooth General, their soldiers are definitely not as vulnerable as the Wolftooth Army. In this entire team, there are no less than ten people in the realm of the moon, so it seems that Zhao Yulong's side does not have much advantage except for Zhao Yulong and Jing Rui.
After all, the local generals and lieutenants have a realm similar to that of Huyun Mengliang and them, and in this case, it is obviously a little difficult for the local people to have so many more people than here.
However, this will not affect anything, after all, in Zhao Yulong's opinion, such an enemy should be used to try the formation he practiced for these soldiers. After all, the formation left by Emperor Wu was not covered, if he didn't carry him forward, wouldn't he lose Emperor Wu's face.
Therefore, after discovering that there were pursuers behind, Zhao Yulong's first order was not to leave the grain and grass and flee here, but to stop marching and prepare for battle.
Yes, it was too early to prepare his soldiers for battle when the enemy army was still so far away, but Zhao Yulong felt that it was much better to prepare in advance.
Because these formations are complicated after all, if they start a direct battle, these soldiers will definitely forget because of nervousness. But this battlefield is merciless, you can't let the other party stop because of the formation you forgot on the battlefield.
Therefore, Zhao Yulong asked these soldiers to stop first, not just to give them some time to calm down and think about how the formation worked.
And because of the long journey to escort grain and grass, although the speed of the march was very slow, the soldiers were obviously a little tired. Just take advantage of this opportunity to let them have a good rest, so that the effect of starting a war will naturally be much better.
At this time, when the enemy saw that Zhao Yulong's army had stayed in place without moving, he felt doubts in his heart, and couldn't help but hesitate whether he should step forward.
After all, when they arrived, they were told by the Wolf Hunt that the commander of a team was very cunning, and they did not forget to paint a general picture. Yes, that image is now completely right compared to Zhao Yulong.
is nine feet tall, but he is just a teenager who has not been beaten by the wind and frost of time. The black garment was surrounded by some gold threads, and these gold threads formed a very strange pattern on the crown of his clothes.
Yes, that pattern can only be seen by Zhao Yulong himself, this is a simplified dragon. And the waist is surrounded by a red jade inlaid green belt, but the feet are black and blue cloud boots, and he wears a martial arts qu to enter the civil official, which makes Zhao Yulong's image a little prominent.
Because this whole set, except for the dragon tattooed on the black robe, is all the clothes that can only be found in the imperial examination every year in the imperial examination. And where will there be any Tanhua on this entire battlefield, there is no doubt that this can only be Zhao Yulong.
In fact, this crown was not what Zhao Yulong himself wanted to wear, just because General Qitian saw that Zhao Yulong had no military rank when he went out on the expedition, and it was definitely inappropriate to bring thousands of people. However, the official position in the army cannot be given to people temporarily, and it just so happens that General Qitian is the examiner of the martial arts, so it is inevitable that there will be some clothes in the ring, and this dress is given to Zhao Yulong.
After all, it is easy to manage people only if you have an official position, but now Zhao Yulong is being targeted because of this costume.
Of course, in fact, even if Zhao Yulong doesn't wear this body, it is still easy to be recognized by the enemy generals, after all, the divine dragon blood in his body makes him born with a spirit that is different from ordinary people.
And this spirit will always give people a feeling of being high up and dominating everything, so this is also the reason why Zhao Yulong has been targeted in Tongtian Academy before.
Because those old things saw in Zhao Yulong a temperament that even the emperor might not have, and this is a very terrifying thing. Because this means that as long as Zhao Yulong has this ambition, then the imperial kingdom will definitely change the dynasty.
It's just that the eyes of these elders are too narrow, and Zhao Yulong's purpose is not to let this imperial country change the dynasty, but to let the entire continent change its master.
Rather, there is only one master of unity, and that person must be himself. Although Zhao Yulong didn't know if he had this ability, he wanted to give it a try.
Because as Emperor Wu said: "There have been too many wars in this world, and wars bring killing, endless killing and plundering." While one of the two sides of the war has something to gain, the civilians will always be the hardest hit, because whoever wins or loses will die. And the greatest meaning of my existence in this world is to make this world free of war, after all, peace is the highest ideal. But for the highest ideals, you have to fight to the end!"
Yes, because I don't want to have another war, I want to fight. And because I don't like war, I have to work harder to devote myself to war, otherwise these wars will be endless.
After all, if there is no co-master in the whole world who can control all of them, how can he achieve order in every race or even every country? And now there is no such person in the entire continent, and Zhao Yulong always believes that he is the first.
Naturally, when there is an enemy attack at the moment, this is a very happy thing for Zhao Yulong, because it is a good opportunity to exercise. Men are never born to fight, and those tactics were the result of our ancestors' own devotion to war.
Although their conclusions must be correct, the times are somewhat different, and naturally some things cannot be judged based on past experience. So naturally, what Zhao Yulong needs now is actual combat, and what he learns after a real battle may be much more learned than reading a military book for a day.
It's just that his opponent is not as simple as Zhao Yulong, and now he feels very suspicious to see Zhao Yulong not leaving with this team, and also letting the soldiers be on guard around here.
Yes, it is said that a gap of 1:3 in the number of an army is not good for war. Therefore, after seeing that the ratio of soldiers on both sides has reached 1:5, an orthodox general must be thinking about how to withdraw, and he will definitely not be so calm.
And now Zhao Yulong's behavior is particularly abnormal, now his soldiers don't say how nervous they are, after all, there is no need to devote themselves to the war yet, as long as a little vigilance doesn't matter.
It's just strange that Zhao Yulong actually sat on the carriage escorting grain and grass and drank tea, yes, just when the enemy army was not far from his side, and was slowly approaching, Zhao Yulong was still drinking tea peacefully.
It's hard to believe that Zhao Yulong can be so calm, and his face doesn't even change, as if he has nothing to worry about. This made the enemy generals even more puzzled, after all, he had never seen such an opponent in so many years as a general.
Yes, Zhao Yulong is too difficult to deal with, and it is no wonder that even the Wolf Tooth General will be defeated at the hands of Zhao Yulong. Because they have no way to guess Zhao Yulong's mind, if they say that there is a drop of water in other people's hearts before them, even if they are close, they will look ignorant. And Zhao Yulong's heart is like an ocean, and he can't see through what Zhao Yulong is thinking and what he plans to do next.
It was like an ordeal, and yes, the general was already sweating a little. Thinking that he Nalan has been marching and fighting for decades, but it is the first time that he has been stumped, and this time it is a sixteen-year-old child who has stumped him, and this is not very good.
It's just that he didn't dare to attack rashly, after all, if there was an ambush, it would be really difficult for his team of 5,000 people to survive.
But it was certainly not a good idea to retreat, because the battle had not yet been fought to retreat, and the enemy army facing less than half of his own army was even more unpleasant to say.
And the most important thing is the morale of the army, if he withdraws the army, what will those soldiers think of him? He doesn't even dare to fight, and is greedy for life and afraid of death? Obviously, if he really has no reason, he may really be scolded like this.
Therefore, for Nalan Fengxing, this is the most difficult option in his life, because if there is no random choice, everything may cause irreparable losses. It is no wonder that when he went out on the expedition before, the marshal ordered that these two teams must be avoided.
One of these teams is the main force in the expeditionary force, the Sky Eagle Regiment, because this Qitian General is here, so this thousand people must not be provoked.
And the other team is the grain and grass team led by Zhao Yulong, although according to their intelligence, Zhao Yulong seems to be a scholar with no combat ability, but he has the most headache for these generals, that is, his heart can never be guessed.
And what is even more terrifying is that according to General Wolf's Tooth, Zhao Yulong can easily guess the opponent's mind and know what they want to do. Therefore, General Wolf Tooth suffered a loss on this, and every time he acted, he seemed to be known by Zhao Yulong in advance, and all of them were messed up by Zhao Yulong.
Originally, it was said that people who saw Zhao Yulong's approach in the general march would be regarded as scholars who could only read books but could not fight, but it was very different when it came to Zhao Yulong's life.
After all, the previous rendering has given Zhao Yulong too much mystery, although some people's descriptions are not completely true. But these words are still very communicative.
So these words are dressed, and after being modified little by little by these people, Zhao Yulong has completely become a god in their hearts, so it is no wonder that Nalan Fengxing is hesitant now that the sweat on his forehead is enough to wash his face.
But fortunately, his adjutant is his own brother Nalan Muzheng, and Nalan Muzheng has one of the most important characteristics is that he will not believe what he has never seen with his own eyes, even if others say it, and now when he sees Zhao Yulong, he doesn't believe it very much, so he comforts Nalan Fengxing:
"Brother, you don't have to worry so much. In my opinion, this kid is just a nerd, you see the way he reads a book, he doesn't blink, if it were you and I can read a book like this? So according to me, the reason why this kid is so godly in the army is just making excuses for his own failures. ”
However, it is obvious that the personalities of these two brothers are very different, so Nalan Muzheng did not say anything to his brother: "You don't understand, it must not be easy for this general to defeat General Wolf Fang. You must know that General Wolftooth is familiar to you and me, after all, he escaped from our encirclement with an army much weaker than ours. So the person who can make this general suffer must not be simple. ”
As soon as he heard the wolf tooth general, Nalan Muzheng stopped a lot. To be honest, he naturally knew General Wolffang, after all, there were still a lot of wars between their countries back then.
And every time the wolf can be dispatched, the wolf hunting army is the wolf hunting army, and naturally the wolf tooth general is the enemy they often encounter. But no matter how many times encountered, the total number of victories of General Wolftooth's troops.
Although the overall strength of his troops is not as good as this, he has repeatedly denied the enemy advantage by relying on strange tactics. So this Nalan brother is naturally very impressed with him.
And now that this powerful man with a profound image can be defeated at the hands of a child, it must show that this child is even more not simple. So this is the key to Nalan Fengxing's real concerns, because his military acumen is obviously inferior to General Wolf's Tooth.
But even if he said that, at most, he only managed to make Nalan Muzheng face up to Zhao Yulong's opponent, but he still didn't think Zhao Yulong was too difficult to deal with.
"Perhaps General Wolffang's defeat was entirely due to his cautiousness, so he hurriedly retreated at the slightest disturbance. And this kid obviously wants to play an empty city plan, since he is so strategic, he will definitely be able to be so calm, but in fact, his heart is still flustered. And our two brothers are not wolf tooth generals, so we don't care about it anyway, as long as we go up, he will definitely suffer. Brother, think about the uproar this kid made in the barracks, how much credit it would be if he offered his head, and then our promotion will be just around the corner. ”
Obviously, Nalan Fengxing is still a little hesitant, because the fear of something is definitely not something that can be changed in a few words. But when he thought of the credit, it made his heart warm. After all, what is the purpose of being a soldier and fighting? Isn't it just to get promoted and make a fortune?
So thinking of this, his heart was shaken, and according to Zhao Yulong's posture, it really looked like he was playing an empty city plan. So now he agreed: "Alright then, in that case, let's go forward and test it, but slow down a little as we move forward and be careful to avoid ambushes." ”
"Yes!" These soldiers had been standing in this place for more than an hour, and they were already a little tired, so now that they heard that they were finally able to move, they were naturally very happy, and they walked towards Zhao Yulong's team with high morale.
And now where Zhao Yulong's team rested, everyone was sitting on the ground to rest at this time, and now they stood up cautiously after seeing the enemy coming, but they were called by Zhao Yulong to sit down again, in Zhao Yulong's opinion, now is not the time.
