Chapter 316: March

The Taihang Mountains are endless, not only in the Han Empire, but even on the entire continent.

It is located in the western part of the Han Dynasty, stretching for thousands of miles from north to south.

Straddling the northern grasslands and the great rivers in the south, the vast Baili Plain is divided into two.

Just at the junction of the mountains and the plains, a sturdy team had been silently driving for several days.

The dawn of dawn once again covered the land, and the people in the camp were already preparing to make their way.

After another meal, the rising sun in the sky finally showed such a small corner. The morning glow is like the molten earth steel that has just poured out of the furnace, shining brightly, making it impossible to open your eyes and look directly.

However, Xu Haifeng's eyes were not affected in the slightest, his gaze followed the red sun rising until the infinite light illuminated the sea of clouds in the sky, as if it was colorful and splendid.

"Taihang Mountain is really long......" Xu Haifeng muttered.

Looking at Taihang from afar, the endless mountains are beautiful and colorful, and the peaks that are high in the sky are like the crown of pearls on the head of the Ninety-Five, shining brightly. The undulating mountains rich in color, like peacocks on the screen, are gorgeous and charming.

It's just that in Xu Haifeng's eyes, the extremely poetic and beautiful scenery can no longer arouse his interest.

Indeed, whoever marched hastily in this place for nearly ten days was afraid that there would be no more good interest.

"We're already walking fast."

The old man's voice sounded behind him, and Taiyi Zhenren slowly came to his side.

"You are so old, and you have to run around like this, Feng'er is really a sin......" Xu Haifeng saluted respectfully to the old Taoist priest.

Taiyi Zhenren smiled indifferently and said, "You kid, my old bones should also be moved, otherwise it will really rust." ”

His gaze swept over the Black Flag soldiers who had already set up camp and hit the road.

Xu Haifeng suddenly felt something, and looked intently, only to see that the old Taoist priest's gaze was quite complicated.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Alas...... Such a strong soldier is really beyond the expectations of my old Taoist priest. ”

Taiyi Zhenren sighed, although after he saw the strength of the heavy infantry of the Black Flag Army, he had a high opinion of this world-famous army. However, it wasn't until he walked on this rugged mountain road with Xu Haifeng and others that he knew that he still underestimated this group of silent iron-blooded soldiers.

Mountain roads are difficult, this is common sense that everyone knows.

On the mountain road, if it is only one person, the impact is not very great.

However, if it were an army that wanted to walk here, on this uncultivated mountain road, then their march would be a hundred times more difficult than marching on flat ground.

Since ancient times, no army has ever been able to march through mountain roads.

But today, that record has finally been broken.

The Black Flag Army, they seem to have been born to break all kinds of records.

This time, they did something that seemed incredible in the eyes of everyone.

Five thousand, a full five thousand, and their horses, a whole five thousand horses.

This behemoth actually launched a rapid march on this narrow and rugged mountain road.

Xu Haifeng's gaze swept through the crowd, he frowned suddenly, and shouted, "Lin Jiahui." ”

"The end will be." Lin Jiahui shouted, his body jumped high, and in a few ups and downs, he had already come to Xu Haifeng's side.

"Where's the spy?"

Lin Jiahui bowed his head respectfully and said, "It was sent out last night." ”

"What's wrong with them?" Xu Haifeng's hand pointed at the listless members of the special forces in the distance and asked.

Lin Jiahui's face turned red, he hesitated for a short moment, and immediately said: "In the past few days of marching, on the mountain road, they have to be responsible for exploring the terrain, searching for pedestrians, and covering their whereabouts, which is a little too tiring. ”

"Hmph......" Xu Haifeng snorted angrily.

Hearing the serious dissatisfaction in Commander Xu's voice, Lin Jiahui's face was even more blue and red.

"I know that you are suffering, and these days of marching are indeed something that you have never experienced before. And all the peripheral work has been entrusted to you, which makes it even worse. ”

Lin Jiahui looked at the upright face in surprise, and wondered in his heart, didn't Xu Haifeng want to scold his special forces? How to excuse their own troops in turn.

"But......" Xu Haifeng glanced at Lin Jiahui, who raised his head, and said, "You must know that the people in the Black Flag Army are all ordinary people, but they don't have any martial arts. Moreover, they have more than 100 pounds of armor on their bodies. ”

Lin Jiahui was speechless, he blushed, bowed down and said, "Yes, the last general understands." ”

Xu Haifeng waved his hand, and Lin Jiahui immediately turned around.

He came to his subordinates with great vigour.

The members of the special forces couldn't help but have a slight commotion when they saw his unkind face.

Lin Jiahui's gaze swept over their faces, and gradually became fierce: "Look at your bear-like, listless, do you still look like a hero?" ”

They were stunned in unison, and then their colors changed at the same time.

However, Lin Jiahui didn't give them a chance to speak, and immediately shouted: "Look at the Black Flag Army, those ordinary soldiers, how are they?" They don't have any martial arts. Look at you again......"

Everyone looked at each other, although they were dissatisfied with Lin Jiahui, but the spiritual outlook of the Black Flag Army was obvious to all, how could they not close their eyes and talk nonsense.

Far away, Taiyi Zhenren's skills are so profound, Lin Jiahui's words and deeds can't hide from his ears and eyes.

Hearing him mention the ordinary sergeant of the Black Flag Army, the corners of the old Taoist's mouth twitched slightly.

How can this be compared......

I don't know how Xu Haifeng trained this terrifying army that makes people palpitate.

Anyone who has walked through the mountain road should know that the mountain road is difficult, and even his old man has been running here for a few days, and there are some signs of sour bones. However, of course, this is because his old man is too old.

And what about the Black Flag Army?

If it weren't for the wind blowing on their bodies, if it weren't for the mud on their clothes and pants. The old Taoist really thought that they had just set off from Wolong City on their first day.

They didn't do it empty-handed.

Since there were no baggage troops, all the blades, armor, and even the dry food and water of these days were carried on their backs.

The weight of that full-body armor was almost the weight of a person.

And other than that, each of them carried something extra, which was a greeting gift prepared by Jiang Kongming for the barbarians.

A few pieces per person for 5,000 people adds up to a lot of gifts.

So many things, almost equivalent to their own weight.

However, these soldiers of the Black Flag Army were carrying such heavy things on their backs, but they didn't realize it one by one, and they still walked like flying without complaining.

Moreover, they do not have any requirements for room and board.

Each of their meals consisted of just two black coarse buns and a shiny black pickle stick.

Eating such food, they can still maintain such abundant physical strength, which shows how thick their foundation is.

They didn't carry tents, and the group slept in the sky every night.

No matter how dirty the ground was, as soon as the order came, they threw a thick layer of tarpaulin on the ground and lay down like that. He slept until the next day, when it was dark, and then marched again.

Eating, drinking, and living in such a rudimentary way that none of these so-called ordinary soldiers fell ill.

It can be seen that even if they are ordinary, they are absolutely not ordinary.

If it is said that he can train his soldiers to such a level, it is Xu Haifeng's ability. Then, what really frightened his old man was those bloody and drunk war horses.

The 5,000 war horses made Taiyi Zhenren puzzled.

Horses are no better than humans, they don't have the wisdom of people, and it is a hundred times more difficult to walk on mountain roads.

But the horses seemed to be very obedient, and they followed closely behind their masters on the rough mountain roads, and not a single horse was left behind.

No matter how difficult the road is, as long as people can pass through it, these horses can step by step.

He has been an old man for a hundred years, and it is the first time he has seen such an obedient beast, if it is only one or two horses, it is not surprising, it can explain the past.

But five thousand such horses, it is a little weird, weird and chilling.

Taiyi Zhenren's gaze swept over the faces of the warriors.

is still a quiet, tireless face, in their eyes, the old Taoist priest can't even see any mood swings.

Swallowing deeply and foaming, his old man could only rejoice that this was the Black Flag Army, not an enemy.

If before he came here, he had deep doubts about what role a mere 5,000 people could play on the battlefield, then now he has a deep expectation.

Lin Jiahui was still unsatisfied, and continued: "If you think you can't bear it, then go back, and I will tell your teacher truthfully." ”

The faces of all the members changed subtly at the same time, once the elders of the division knew, then what face did they have to continue to mix in the rivers and lakes. I'm afraid that when the time comes, everyone will betray their relatives and leave and be expelled from the division, which will be their only ending.

"If you stay, just lift your spirits to me, and go ......" Lin Jiahui snorted in a low voice, using the internal force of the dantian, which shook people's ear drums for a while.

These words really have some effect, these Jianghu men hold their heads high one by one, and when they look at the past, they seem to be full of energy.

Seeing Lin Jiahui wave his hand, they immediately scattered in all directions, and in a moment, they disappeared.

Don't ask, what to do.

Xu Haifeng nodded silently, this Lin Jiahui does have a few brushes, and he already has a certain prestige among the special forces.

Lin Jiahui came to Xu Haifeng again, bowed down and said, "Lord, please rest assured, there will be no men of bad breed in the special forces." ”

After taking a deep look at him, Xu Haifeng said, "Okay." ”

He looked up into the distance, his goal was not far away.

"March, speed up."
