[710] Robbery
Night enveloped the island, and darkness spread through the towns. The mountains and rivers on the island are blurred, and only a vague outline can be seen.
The stars in the sky appeared, and they became clear.
In the underworld after summer, the stars in the sky become red like fire, and they are even more dazzling.
The servants in the Yingzhao Mansion lit the stone lamps in the courtyard of the mansion one by one. The light of the fire flickered on the ground, echoing the stars in the sky.
Xiao Shizhu smiled and said nothing, looking at the Ying Zhao with interest.
The army of the Northern Yin Dynasty was too numerous, and the British recruitment was indeed a bit bottomless. It's not that the ghost soldiers under his rule are incompetent, it's just that the disparity in strength is too great, and Ying Zhao is a little stunned.
And Xiao Shizhu didn't care whether he was stunned or not, his plan had to continue. Huangquan is decided, and the army of the Northern Yin Dynasty will also be attracted. In order to make the Northern Yin Dynasty damage the soldiers, horses, money and grain, the treasury was empty and the people were resentful.
In this war, as long as the vitality of the Beiyin Dynasty can be damaged, then the Beiyin Dynasty will not be able to recover for several years or even decades. In this way, the Nine Shadows Kingdom can leisurely expand its territory and expand its territory unscrupulously.
This point has been understood by Yingzhao after thinking about it a little. But then he turned his head and looked at the calm national teacher Yingying with a puzzled look.
He really couldn't understand what the national teacher Yingying said, what was the advantage of time and place to be able to win more with less under the disparity in troops?
And the old fritter on the battlefield of Yingzhao knows that since it is a war, both sides will be damaged, which can be described as killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred. As soon as this battle began, the Northern Yin Dynasty was damaged, and the same was true of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.
Even so, Ying Zhao felt that this battle was really dispensable.
"In fact, the geographical location is nothing more than the sea pillars dotted on the sea outside Shuoyue Island. These rock pillars allowed the large warships of the Northern Yin Dynasty to enter Shuoyue Island one by one. A large fleet could not be deployed, and the movement was naturally slow. But we were able to set up an ambush on the spot and ambush the warships of the Northern Yin Dynasty. On the vast sea, the army of the Northern Yin Dynasty without warships is not waiting for death?" Although the national teacher Yingying was blind and couldn't see Ying Zhao's tightly knit brows and the confusion on his face, he could sense the worries and doubts in his heart, and he was still not in a hurry at the moment, his expression was calm, and he said eloquently: "This day is naturally the last period, and before the end of autumn, it is a time when there are many frequent storms on the sea. As soon as the heavy rain comes, the sea will be full of waves. The Beiyin Dynasty's labor expedition, the transportation of grain will inevitably go through wind and rain and waves, China's naval cavalry merman army, and the boat ghost army, just can attack the Beiyin Dynasty expeditionary force rear supply line. ”。
In Yingying's words, she said what was beneficial to the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and also listed the disadvantages of the expedition of the Northern Yin Dynasty.
Ying Zhao heard these words and felt reasonable. But the worries and faint worries in my heart have not subsided for the time being. After all, the Northern Yin Dynasty did not dispatch hundreds of thousands of troops, it was millions of troops.
And Ying Zhao's subordinates are only hundreds of thousands of ghost soldiers, and there is no bottom.
"According to the original plan, after autumn, I will come back from Huangquan. Xiao Shizhu took over and said: "At that time, bring a large number of ghost troops in the Yellow Spring, advance and retreat with you, and live and die together." ”。
When Ying Zhao heard this, the surprise and stunned in his eyes, as well as the look of doubt, faded a little.
"Second, the Northern Yin Dynasty was an expedition. Tens of thousands of miles of sea make their supply lines inevitably lengthen, and the manpower and material resources consumed are not small. And general, you are just fighting on the mainland, although Shuoyue Island is an island in the sea, it is only thousands of miles away from the land. Our Minecarts, Air Cavalry, and other sailors are ready to come to the aid of Shuoyue Island, and to airdrop or deliver supplies for you. Ying Ying, who took a sip of tea, then said slowly: "In the local battle against the expedition, General Yingzhao not only has the upper hand, but also can use the strategy of robbing the enemy's grain, grass and materials to deal with the expeditionary force of the Northern Yin Dynasty. However, the expeditionary force of the Northern Yin Dynasty could not blockade all the sea areas. The control of the Northern Yin Dynasty in the sea has long been a foreign power. But the Nine Shadows Kingdom is getting stronger and stronger, and the supplies given by the imperial court to the general can arrive on the island in time without any deduction, and they can come and go freely. Even if the sea area is blocked, our air forces can transport it in the sky. ”。
The national teacher Yingying raised her hand, raised her index finger and pointed straight at the queen of heaven, and slowly drew two circles on the top of her head.
What she said was the truth, and it was also a fact that Ying Zhao was clear, but she just focused on the number of troops that the Northern Yin Dynasty was about to dispatch, but she forgot about these things.
"Yingzhao understands, thank you for the guidance of the national teacher. The heroic move that suddenly realized was like waking up from a dream, and his face was full of joy, and he hurriedly bowed to the national teacher Yingying.
The worry on his face before has now vanished.
He knew how to defend Shuoyue Island if the Beiyin Dynasty army attacked.
"Big brother, don't worry, the younger brother will definitely defend this Shuoyue Island. Ying Zhao slapped his chest hard, and confidently assured Xiao Shizhu: "As long as the supply continues, foreign aid can help me attack the Beiyin Dynasty, and the little brother will definitely let the Beiyin Dynasty suffer a big loss in Shuoyue Island again." ”。
"The supply will definitely be constant, and foreign aid will also be arranged for you. Xiao Shizhu showed a sinister smile again, lowered his voice to Ying Zhao, and said, "But what I want is that you had better be able to completely annihilate this expeditionary army of the Northern Yin Dynasty." In this way, the vitality of the Beiyin Dynasty can be greatly damaged, and they will not be able to recover within three or five years or even ten years. ”。
As soon as Xiao Shizhu finished speaking, he narrowed his eyes. In his eyes, a trace of killing intent flashed colder than the night wind outside the house.
As soon as the killing intent emerged, the entire room fell into a cold, shrouded in a biting cold.
Some of the kings of equality were really right, Xiao Shizhu was just taking the opportunity to weaken his enemies. The Northern Yin Dynasty was able to conquer the east and the west, entirely because of its strong national strength.
And since Xiao Shizhu learned from the mouth of King Yama that Zhu Maichen, the soul chasing captain, recalled the powerful ghosts who stayed in the world and bewitched the world to do evil, Xiao Shizhu asserted that the Northern Yin Dynasty was exhausted.
Xiao Shizhu wants to add fuel to the fire on the exhaustion of the mountains and rivers of the Northern Yin Dynasty and the Emperor Xudu.
"So even if you can't wipe out all the enemies that come to you, hold them back. Let the Beiyin Dynasty continue to give them long-distance supplies and drag down the Beiyin Dynasty. Xiao Shizhu, who was full of interest, raised the volume by a few decibels, and patted Ying Zhao's shoulder with his hand: "This honor is handed over to you, you won't mind, right?"
Expectant gaze flashed in his eyes as he stared at Ying Zhao.
"Of course I won't mind, I won't refuse this kind of task of the Emperor of the Whole Empire. The carefree Ying Zhao in his heart patted his strong chest again, and promised Xiao Shizhu solemnly: "I will definitely defend Shuoyue Island and never let the army of the Northern Yin Dynasty hit the island." ”......
Dongyingzhou, northwest of the Jingren Kingdom.
The forest of emerald green rocks is like a giant umbrella falling from the sky between the slightly undulating hills and mountains, and as far as the eye can see, it is all a piece of emerald green, covering the grass and rocks in the mountains.
This mausoleum forest, along the mountains on the ground, winds into a huge arc in the northwest of the Yasujin Kingdom, becoming a natural barrier in the northwest of the Yasujin Kingdom.
The forest is interlaced with tall trees rising from the ground, forming an intricate topography with the streams and rivers in the mountains. And the canopy of the mausoleum tree is luxuriant. So that whether it is the light of the cloudy day or the light of the moon, the light that penetrates the canopy can only form a blurry light and shadow.
The ghosts in it are all dazzled, and it is easier to get lost in the mausoleum forest. There are many ghosts who don't know the road in the middle of the mountain and have never come out again.
Over time, this mausoleum forest has also become a place where ghosts are afraid. The ghosts who live nearby have always taught their little ghosts in this way - if you want to live, don't go into the Mausoleum Forest.
But it was such a place that terrified all the ghosts, and at this time there was a heavily armed army of the Northern Yin Dynasty, escorting thousands of iron chariots, passing through the dazzling silhouettes of tree shadows. From the northwest to the southeast, they headed for the hinterland of the Yasujin Kingdom.
A whole army, all composed of blue-faced and fanged ghosts. Every ghost soldier is a fangs sticking out of his mouth, and his face is full of hideousness. They were covered in golden armor, and they also shone and dazzled in the silhouetted mausoleum forest.
The leader was a high-headed ghost, with red hair and not too long fangs in his mouth, but a pair of eyes that shone coldly, as if he were playing two lanterns on his face. The nine-ring broadsword weighing 100 catties and nearly four feet long on his back was on his back. Under the seat is a green-haired tiger, also majestic, striding through the tombstones and trees.
The iron carts escorted by this large army contained the food, grass, and materials needed by the Xudu army, which had entered the Yasujin Kingdom, as well as medicines and ammunition.
The reason why the Xudu Army chose to enter the Yasujin Kingdom from this place was to prevent the ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom from sneaking attack. The terrain in the Lingshi Forest is complicated, and even these Xudu troops can walk dizzily without a guide, not to mention the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, which is unfamiliar with the place, will never dare to enter this place rashly.
Along the way, it was all smooth. As expected by this Xudu army, the Nine Shadows Army did not set up an ambush here.
So smoothly, before the cloudy sun sets, this army of grain can get out of this strange forest. Outside the forest, another army of Xudu will come to meet them.
Walking in the silhouette of the forest, the Xudu army became more and more proud, they all just came back from the world, and they heard that the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom was fierce and brave, and the generals who led the army were also brave and strategic.
Now it seems that he clearly knows that the grain, grass, ammunition, herbs and other materials escorted by these Xudu troops are about to arrive in the northern part of the Jingren Kingdom and are provided to the Xudu army that has been confronting the Jiuyou National Army on the southern border of Qingqiu Fox Country for a long time, but they do not come to rob the grain and cut off their back road. Let the Xudu army that transports grain feel that the Nine Shadows Army is just a little vain, and there is nothing to be afraid of at all.
The yin wind swirled through the forest, dragging a long sound and whistling again and again. The sound of screeching is endless. The guards beside the red-haired ghost at the head smiled to himself, and said triumphantly to the red-haired ghost: "General, the Nine Shadows Kingdom is also in vain. We are all walking in the wilderness and mountains so swaggeringly, there is no place in front of the village and no store in the back, they don't come to take advantage of the loopholes to rob the grain, it can be seen that they are also a group of waste mediocrity. ”。
Say, the guard laughed loudly, and the laughter was full of pride.
"It's windy here. While the triumphant laughter was still echoing in the verdant forest, the red-haired ghost led by him glared at the guards and scolded in a deep voice: "Be careful to flash your tongue when you speak!"
His voice fell to the ground, and the aftermath of the guards' laughter dissipated. But a few feet away in front of the army, there were also ghosts flickering, and ghosts emerged.
The red-haired ghost hurriedly raised his hand and told the army to stop. Then they saw more than a dozen sturdy human souls, flashing out of the grass and trees in front of them.
The guards shouted, "Who's coming?".
"The robbery?" replied with a grin.
