Volume III Chapter 680

The soldiers of the Yan army who were pressed tightly surrounded the three of them, looking around, there were three layers inside and three layers outside, and they couldn't tell the number, and as the three of them marched, the encirclement of the Yan army was also slowly moving forward with them.

Just as they were walking outside the camp, another Yan soldier scout ran over to report that the vanguard cavalry of the Jin Army had arrived outside their camp, and Zhang Bufan was calling for battle in front of the camp.

After hearing this, Jin Zhuo sighed on his back, he knew in his heart that if he wanted to capture Lin Haotian at this time, there was no chance!

Without waiting for Jin Zhuo to speak, Lin Haotian preemptively said: "If you go out to talk to Zhang Bufan, just say that Ben Shuai will go out immediately and let him wait outside the camp!"

Looking at Zhang Bufan's murderous appearance, it was estimated that he would have to be cut off by him before he could speak.

He looked at Jin Zhuo and asked what Jin Zhuo meant. The latter took a deep breath and nodded helplessly, meaning to do what Lin Haotian said.

The soldier intervened, and rode back to the gate.

When Lin Haotian and Chang Feng walked out of the gate with Yin Xiang in their hands, they looked out and saw that the place a mile away from the camp was already full of cavalry from the Jin Kingdom.

The heavy cavalry is located in the center, the light cavalry is located on both wings, Zhang Bufan is holding a knife in one hand, pulling the reins in the other, and is hovering in front of the formation, looking behind him, Ling Wuya and Guan He are also there, and the fierce generals in the Jin army have all arrived.

Seeing his own army in front of the camp clearly, Lin Haotian stopped and said to Yin Xiang: "Okay, the princess will send me here, take the liberty to visit, and beg for mercy." ”

Yin Xiang gritted her teeth and said fiercely: "Lin Haotian, don't think that this matter is over, the humiliation you gave to the palace today will be repaid by the palace in the future." ”

Lin Haotian was stunned. Then he smiled: "In that case, I shouldn't have let you go." ”

"Yes, you'd better kill Hongu now!" Yin Xiang roared in a very low voice.

Lin Haotian didn't feel anything about her cruel words, but Chang Feng couldn't help frowning.

Anyway, he had been taken care of by Yin Xiang for so many years, and it was impossible for him to let her die in front of him. If Lin Haotian wanted to kill her, he really didn't know what to do.

What reassured him was that Lin Haotian did not have murderous intentions.

He first glanced at Chang Feng, and then sneered at Yin Xiang and said, "This time, Ben Shuai can not kill you, but it is not because he is worried about your Yan Country, but for the sake of Mr. Chang's face." But Ben Shuai still wants to remind you, only this once, if you really dare to come to me for trouble in the future. If it falls into my hands again, Heavenly King Lao Tzu will not be able to save you!" After speaking, he no longer paid attention to Yin Xiang and said to Chang Feng: "Brother Chang, let's go!"

Lin Haotian crossed Yin Xiang and strode straight towards the Jin Jun on the opposite side.

When Chang Feng walked past Yin Xiang, he stopped and bowed again. said softly: "Farewell!" After speaking, he followed Lin Haotian away.

Unexpectedly, Lin Haotian didn't return to the Jin Jun camp and let the princess go first. The Yan generals' eyes lit up together, and they all rushed forward, protecting Yin Xiang while saying urgently: "Princess, general, let's release the arrows now!"

Even if Lin Haotian and Chang Feng's Immortal Martial Arts had cultivated to the body of a demigod, they couldn't parry the volley of the army's arrow array. This is the last chance to kill Lin Haotian.

Jin Zhuo didn't think that killing Lin Haotian was a good thing for the current Yan country, of course, the person in charge of the Yan army now was not him, but Yin Xiang, whether to kill or release. I have to wait for Yin Xiang to make a statement.

Yin Xiang stood up on the spot, looking at the backs of Lin Haotian and Chang Feng with her eyes looking directly away, and finally, she retracted her gaze with a complicated expression, and said to the generals around her: "This palace will kill Lin Haotian, but not behind his back, but to defeat him in a dignified manner......! Go back to camp with the main palace!"

Hearing her words, the generals of the Yan army were immediately deflated, but Jin Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief, he arched his hand and praised: "The princess is wise!" and then waved his arms to the surrounding soldiers, signaling everyone to immediately withdraw to their own camp.

The fierce battle between the two armies at the border did not happen, and it can be said that both sides now have concerns, and neither of them is willing to start a national war with the other side, even if they have torn their faces, they have each chosen to retreat.

However, the contradictions and suspicions between Jin and Yan have not been eliminated, but have been further deepened.

After this incident, the Yan country's troops on the border surged to 400,000, and the Jin army's troops at the pass city also reached 200,000.

Let's say that Lin Haotian and Chang Feng, after leaving the Yan camp, Zhang Bufan, Ling Wuya, and Guan He generals immediately urged the horses to come forward, this place was still within the range of the Yan camp, and everyone didn't dare to ask more, so they handed over the empty horses to Lin Haotian and Chang Feng, and then the group quickly retreated to their own camp.

When they withdrew to the camp of the Jin army, everyone's hearts were relieved.

Zhang Bufan was the first to ask: "Why did your lord suddenly go to Yanying? I rushed over immediately after receiving the report from our army!"

Lin Haotian smiled and said half-truthfully: "Yin Xiang is just a woman, and she has the courage to be a guest in my Jin Army camp, how can my dignified seven-foot man not dare to be a guest in his Yan Army camp?"

"That's different...... Zhang Bufan shook his head again and again, Yin Xiang is just a princess, and the adults are monarchs, and their identities are different, how can they be compared?

He turned his gaze to Chang Feng, and couldn't help frowning secretly, how could Yin Xiang's guards come with the adults?

Seeing that the eyes of all the generals were looking at Chang Feng, Lin Haotian smiled leisurely and said: "Mr. Chang has switched to me, in the future, Mr. Chang will be our own people, all of you should be closer to Mr. Chang and ask others for advice!"

In terms of what he has learned, Chang Feng is more knowledgeable than anyone else, not to mention the generals below, even Lin Haotian himself has a lot of knowledge to learn from Chang Feng!

Chang Feng actually turned to his side, which is too unexpected and incredible.

People's first reaction is, is there any fraud in it?

Zhang Bufan and other Jin generals are full of suspicions about Chang Feng, and of course, their suspicions are not unfounded. Chang Feng can become the princess's personal guard, naturally he has won the trust of the Yan Kingdom court and even the Yan King Yin Ji, how could he defect to the Jin Kingdom so easily?

However, Lin Haotian trusts Chang Feng very much. Although he and Chang Feng have known each other for a short time and have not had much contact, his intuition tells him that Chang Feng is worthy of his trust. And in his opinion, a person like Chang Feng, who was abandoned by everyone because of his physical defects, is the most suitable to stay in Jinguo. He made the right choice.

Lin Haotian didn't explain much about Chang Feng's refuge, and everyone didn't dare to ask more.

Guan He changed the topic and asked, "The adults are guests in the Yan camp, and the Yan army is really willing to magnify people to come back?"

"Haha!" Lin Haotian looked up and smiled, turned around and patted Chang Feng's arm, and said, "It's strange to be willing to let go! Thanks to Mr. Chang helping me this time, otherwise, I am afraid that I will be more than lucky in the Yan camp." ”

In fact, his remarks were a bit exaggerated. Even if there is no Chang Feng, he can handle it, and the reason why he says this is tantamount to telling everyone that Chang Feng is trustworthy and should not be prejudiced and mustard against him.

Sure enough, Lin Haotian's words are more effective than the thousands of words of others.

After everyone heard this, they all turned pale and straightened. Then he respectfully bowed to Chang Feng and said in unison: "Thank you Mr. Chang for helping you get out of trouble!"

Chang Feng can comprehend Lin Haotian's mind. He was also full of gratitude, but he was not good at words, and he could not say words of gratitude and loyalty, so he nodded slightly to the crowd and whispered, "Yes...... Your Excellency is serious. ”

Lin Haotian smiled and didn't say anything more. He asked, "In the Yan Camp, I heard that the First Legion and the Seventh Legion have rushed over?"

"Yes, my lord, the army will arrive at short. Guan He hurriedly replied.

"Let's not wait for the army to come, let's go back first!" Let so many of our own troops come to the scorching border. If you don't get it right, you have to go wrong with the Yan army, and if there is a war, it won't end well.

"Yes, my lord!" all the generals replied one after another, preparing to escort Lin Haotian back to Guankou City.

All the generals knew that Chang Feng was blind, and they also deliberately lined up an elf soldier to lead the horse and stirrup for him. Lin Haotian waved his hand when he saw it, and shouted back to the soldier, signaling that there was no need to take special care of the normal wind.

Seeing this, the golden generals were quite inexplicable, not to mention that Chang Feng had the ability to save the driver, even if he didn't make an inch, with his outstanding martial arts, shouldn't he also respect him as a guest?

If you want to talk about human nature, the golden generals present are really not as good as Lin Haotian. It's true that Chang Feng is blind, but he doesn't want others to treat him as a waste and give him special care. The more people like him, the stronger their self-esteem actually is.

Hearing that Lin Haotian had retired the Jin soldiers who took care of him, Chang Feng not only did not feel neglected, but also nodded at Lin Haotian gratefully, he grabbed the reins of the war horse, did not even step on the stirrups, and flew directly to jump the saddle, and his movements were dexterous, no different from normal people.

The generals were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other and smiled, and no longer looked at Chang Feng with special eyes, they turned their horses' heads one after another, and gave the order to go down, and the rear team became the front team and withdrew to Guankou City.

The group walked halfway, and they met the main forces of the oncoming First Army and the Seventh Army, and when they saw Lin Haotian and saw that he was intact, Ding Feng, who led the army, also let out a sigh.

Walking on the way back to the city, Ding Feng kept chattering beside Lin Haotian that he must not take such a risk in the future, it is meaningless not to say, this is completely joking with his own life.

Lin Haotian nodded while listening, looking at his face with a happy expression, and he didn't know if he had listened to Ding Feng's words.

By the time Lin Haotian returned to Guankou City with the army, the war here had already ended, and the 100,000 defenders inside had already been slaughtered by the Jin army, leaving not a single survivor.

As for the secret passage, it has also been completely destroyed by the Jin army, in order to prevent the Yan people from repeating their old tricks, the Jin army also deliberately buried more than ten water tanks around the pass city, and sent special personnel to guard day and night, responsible for monitoring.

After taking the last pass city, the Jin army has completed the annexation and occupation of the entire territory of the Yan Kingdom, and so far, it has also announced the complete destruction of the Red Kingdom.

Now, the Jin State has successively annexed the two kingdoms of Mu and Chi, and its national strength has reached an unprecedented peak, and its territory has expanded several times, crisscrossing the north and central parts of the empire.

In terms of territorial area alone, the Jin State has surpassed the Yan State, which annexed Youdi, and has become the largest principality worthy of the name.

At present, the only remaining of the principalities is the Yan Kingdom.

Next, the battle between Jin Yan and Jin Yan is about to begin. Of course, the current Jin and Yan countries are not ready for an all-out war.

The Jin Kingdom expanded too fast, and there were many internal problems, which could not be distinguished and straightened out. It takes a long time to deal with them one by one, and there are also hidden dangers within the Yan Kingdom, You Di is not so easy to annex, You People are fierce and unruly, and they want them to completely surrender to the Yan Kingdom. It's not easy. In addition, there is also internal friction within the Yanguo court, the emerging nobles want to get more and greater rights, and the old nobles will not give up the authority in their hands to others in vain, it is difficult for the government and the opposition to unite together, and there are irreconcilable contradictions between the new and old nobles, which is also the biggest hidden danger of the Yanguo at present.

Jin Yan and the two countries have each other's concerns, and each other has its own problems that need to be solved urgently, so. Although the two countries are heavily armed on the border, there has been no fighting, and the two sides are in a stalemate, which seems to be calm on the surface.

Let's say that Lin Haotian, after stabilizing the situation in Guankou City, he ordered the First Army and the Seventh Army to withdraw to the imperial town first, leaving the Third Army and the New Army to rest in Guankou City. He himself did not return to Yuzhen with the First Legion and the Seventh Legion, but planned to go to the Yan Country in person. Take a look at the national conditions of the Yan country.

This time, it was the closest he was to Yanguo. It's a rare opportunity, and he doesn't want to miss it.

Yan Guo has now become the biggest and only rival of Jin Country, as the so-called knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can not be defeated in a hundred battles, no matter how much he hears from other people's mouths, it is better for him to go and lie down in person, and see with his own eyes what the national conditions of Yan Country are, the more he knows about Yan Country and Yan people. In the future, the more certain you will be to fight against Yan.

The trip he planned to Yanguo was only a secret visit in disguise, not an invasion, so he didn't plan to bring too many people, except for Shao Lin, Tong Lei, and Luo Lan, there was only Chang Feng.

Shao Lin and Tong Lei were not worried that Lin Haotian would take an adventure. They also sent the elite of the demon warriors to protect them in the dark.

Two days later, after making proper preparations, Lin Haotian and his party set off.

They couldn't take the road between Yanguo and Yandi, where there were Yan troops stationed layer by layer, and it was basically impossible to quietly cross the border, so they could only advance to Heitou Mountain, pass through the mountains, and then enter the territory of Yanguo.

Heitou Mountain is located on the east side of Guankou City, it is not a lonely mountain, but a winding and undulating mountain range that is hundreds of miles long. Mount Blackhead is nothing more than one of the main peaks of this large mountain range.

For some reason, there is no grass on the top of the peak of Heitou Mountain, and the black rocks are all exposed.

The territory of Heitou Mountain is all barren mountains and wild mountains, as well as large areas of primeval forests, there is no way to go at all, fortunately, Lin Haotian let Jin Jun find the Yanren medicine farmers who often enter Heitou Mountain to collect medicine as a guide in advance, and they were able to cross Heitou Mountain by the medicine farmers to guide the way.

Needless to say, five days later, Lin Haotian and his party finally walked out of Heitou Mountain and entered the territory of Yanguo.

After leaving the Black Head Mountain, they had not gone far before they saw a small village in front of them.

In the past few days, I finally saw the crowd, and everyone seemed very excited.

Luo Lan walked up to Lin Haotian and said in a low voice: "My lord, there must be food in the village, shall we go in and buy some?"

Lin Haotian pondered for a moment, shook his head slowly, and said: "This small village is located in the middle of nowhere, under normal circumstances, there will be no outsiders here, if we rush forward, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the villagers." ”

Although he was right, Roland still had some hope in her heart, and she muttered, "My lord, we haven't had a good meal these days. "For days, he has been gnawing on dry food and eating jerky, and Roland feels sick just thinking about it now.

Lin Haotian smiled, asked for a map from Ah San, and after unfolding it, he said while looking at it: "This place is not far from the Rongcheng of Yanguo, let's go now, it is estimated that you can get there before dark, bear with it a little longer!"

Shao Lin said with a smile: "Before leaving, the adults have already said that this trip is hard, but Miss Roland still wants to follow, and now it's too late to call it hard!"

Roland puffed out his cheeks unconvinced, and muttered, "I didn't say it was hard!" Shao Lin didn't have a son's frame, and Roland behaved casually in front of him.

Lin Haotian checked the map for a while, returned it to Shao Lin, waved his hand to everyone, and said, "Let's go!"

Shao Lin carefully put away the map, and then said to Lin Haotian: "My lord, we had better get a few horses, it will be much more convenient." ”

Everyone nodded in unison, it is naturally best to have horses on the road, but in this barren mountains and mountains, where can you get horses? Thinking of this, everyone's hearts moved, looked at each other, and said in unison: "Yan Jun!"

In the end, Lin Haotian and the others found an inn in the city to settle down temporarily.

After walking through the mountains and old forests for so many days, they have not eaten a decent meal, and now that they are finally in the city, they first order a table of sumptuous wine and food, and after a full meal, they have a good freshening up.

When they are all busy, it is night, and what is unexpected is that Rongcheng is still lively at night, and there is also a night market, there are still many pedestrians on the road, and all kinds of shouts come and go.

If it weren't for the fact that they were too tired for a few days, everyone really wanted to go out for a stroll, and before going to bed, Shao Lin, Chang Feng, and Luo Lan came to Lin Haotian's room one after another to ask him about his next trip.

Lin Haotian had already thought about it, he took out the map, and said while pointing at the map: "Wait for tomorrow morning, we will leave to Xinfeng, the county seat, first, and then go to Dazhang, the county seat." ”

Roland took a breath when he heard this, My Lord, I still want to go to the county town? She looked worried, and said in a low voice: "My lord, is it too deep to go to Dazhang!"

After all, the county seat is the core of a county, and it would be bad if someone recognized the adults when they got there. Lin Haotian smiled and said nonchalantly: "Since you are here, you have to go to the interior of the Yan country, take a look, understand the local customs and customs, and the most important thing is to take this opportunity to observe the terrain of Bianyang County more, in the future, we will definitely have a big battle with the Yan army here!"

Seeing that she was still frowning, Shao Lin smiled and said, "Miss Roland, don't worry, with me and Brother Chang here, the adults will be fine." ”

Roland smiled helplessly and didn't say anything more. (To be continued......)
