[148] The plan has changed
Then, after looking up to the sky and laughing a few times, he shouted to the sky above his head, "I have a son." ”。 The sound of joy and excitement echoed in the sky above him, among the white clouds.
At this moment, he is the happiest ghost in the entire underworld.
In addition to the excitement, he secretly shouted in his heart: "Dad, mother, do you hear? You are going to be grandparents." ”。
All the accompanying servants and forbidden soldiers knelt down together and shouted in unison: "Congratulations to the king." ”。 The sound was so loud that it shook for miles, causing the birds in the woods on both sides of the official road behind them to scream and flutter their wings and fly into the air.
"Stupid. In the aftermath, the ghost mother walked out of the sedan chair with a smile, stroked her lower abdomen and glanced at Xiao Shizhu, and said coquettishly: "How do you know that it must be a son?" Between the eyebrows on his face, there was a faint happiness.
"Slow down. Xiao Shizhu hurriedly stepped forward and carefully supported her: "Even if it's a daughter, it's as beautiful as you." ”。 The joy between the eyebrows did not decrease, but increased.
"That being the case. Changqin smiled and asked thoughtfully: "Do you need me to discuss with my father about the conscription of the army, so that you can accompany the mother of the country more." ”。
"No, you can't. Xiao Shizhu nodded, and the ghost mother shook her head firmly, turned her head to look at Xiao Shizhu, and said softly with affection: "The plan remains the same, do what you have to do, I can take care of myself and the child." ”。
The tenderness in the ghost mother's eyes, revealing a bit of firmness, immediately dispelled Xiao Shizhu's worries and gave him more courage.
And the longer the joint attack drags on, the easier it will be to leak secrets, and it is naturally better to do it sooner rather than later.
I saw him brows raised, and said to the long qin in a sonorous tone: "No need, we will proceed according to the original plan and start tomorrow morning." ”。 As he spoke, he helped the ghost mother to get into the sedan chair and left.
Early the next morning, the sky was only slightly bright, and the dew drops on the flowers and plants in the Juexiang Garden had not yet dispersed, and Xiao Shizhu got up. After helping the ghost mother tuck the quilt, he sat on the edge of the bed and put on his shoes and socks lightly.
When he had dressed everything, a pair of hands with green jade fingers came from behind him, passed under his armpits, and finally wrapped around his waist.
"I'll go back as soon as I go. As soon as Xiao Shizhu turned his head, he saw the ghost mother's peachy cheeks and apricot face with moth eyebrows, and said lightly with a smile: "In the past few days, you have asked the palace people to count all the objects in the palace and make a book." When I come back, I will move the capital with you and my son. ”。
"It's all said, it doesn't have to be a son?" The ghost mother tilted her head, leaned lightly on his shoulder, and whispered softly: "And Lai Yueqi, don't forget." ”。
"Hmm. Xiao Shizhu nodded his head and said, "It's not a son, it's a daughter, anyway, take both of you away." Let's also go to stay in the ancient god palace and see what it's like. ”。
"Then go, you'll have to build me another Exquisite Fragrance Garden. The ghost mother raised her head, put her cheek to his face, and rubbed it gently: "I still have to plant a room of flowers." ”。
"Okay, I'll be sure to build one for you. Xiao Shizhu patted the back of her white palms with his hand: "It's ten times bigger than the current Juexiangyuan." ”。
"Hmm. The ghost mother said no more.
The two ghosts snuggled up to each other for a moment, until the sky outside was completely bright, and the ghost mother reluctantly let go of Xiao Shizhu, her eyes were already flashing with tears, and she had a thousand words in her heart, but in the end, at the moment when the other party got up, she only turned into two words and slowly spit out: "Be careful." ”。
Xiao Shizhu turned around when he heard this, showed a shallow smile to her, leaned down to kiss the teardrop that had just slipped out of the corner of her eye, straightened up, turned around and strode away......
With the joy that still lingered in his heart, Xiao Shizhu went to gather Ying Zhao and his air horsemen, took Changqin and his entourage, and the group headed towards Fufeng Harbor in the south.
Along the way, Changqin looked at the air cavalry around and behind him who were walking neatly and quickly with Xiao Shizhu riding on the Jianzhu, and his heart was surprised for a long time.
This force, which started with only eleven cavalry, grew to three hundred cavalry in just a few months. This is the Flying Dragon Division that Xiao Shizhu later set up in the Xiao family's army.
Many years later, the beings of the underworld prefer to call it the Eleventh Rider of the New Moon. It is only because this cavalry was originally built on Shuoyue Island, and the foundation of the start, only eleven horsemen got its name.
To Changqin's surprise, the underworld air rider is very rare, and a good rider who is good at air riding battles is one in a hundred. No, it should be said that it is one in ten thousand.
Zhu Rongguo has always wanted to form an air cavalry, but he has never been able to do so, because he has not found a good air cavalry rider, and there has been no progress.
But look at Xiao Shizhu's empty horse, the humans and beasts are full of spirit, and they riding on the soul of the flying beast stand up majestically, showing a resolute and mighty look on their faces. The beast soul under the crotch is even more neat, and there has never been a random hissing along the way, they are like veterans who are about to start a war, silent and without a word of nonsense.
If you look at the riders and mounts, they are all highly trained, and may even have been in actual combat.
Changqin has been on Shuoyue Island for a long time, but he doesn't know that there is such a strange army in the former ghost mother country and now in the Nine Shadows Kingdom. I don't know, where did Xiao Shizhu find so many riders?
As everyone knows, this is all the credit of Xiao Shizhu's second brother's Yingzhao. He is familiar with the heroic tricks of air cavalry warfare, and he does not need to bother to find a rider, he can train the ghosts with rider potential into the best air riders.
In this way, there are two in one life, two in three, and three in infinity, creating countless excellent riders for Xiao Shizhu.
What makes Changqin even more astonishing is that some of the taller mounts are two ghosts and one ride, and on the left and right of the beast soul's hips, there are two small cannons three feet long, and the muzzles of the cannons are pointed straight ahead. Xiao Shizhu perfectly used firearms in the air ride.
After Changqin saw it, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly rejoiced in his heart: "Fortunately, this ghost is not the enemy of our country." Thinking of this, I couldn't help but raise my hand and wipe the sweat beads from my forehead with my sleeve.
When they arrived at the port, there were already three seagulls waiting. As soon as they boarded the ship, the three sea falcons and several grain and water boats beside them pulled anchor and set sail.
After the fleet sailed out of the harbor, the sails fluttered with the wind, and the warships rode the wind, up and down in the waves, and headed south in the direction of Gonggongguo.
After two days of floating on the sea, they finally came to the sea two or three hundred miles from the northern border of the Communist Labor State in the early morning of the third day.
There, there were 80,000 troops and hundreds of warships prepared by Zhu Rongguo for this battle, as well as nearly 30,000 sergeants of the Xiao family's army, and more than 70 sea falcons, who were already on the sea bathed in the soft morning light, gradually waiting for the arrival of Xiao Shizhu and Changqin.
The warships were connected to the warships and arranged in a ship formation. As far as the eye can see, it looks like a lonely mountain, and like an isolated island, floating on the sea, which is extremely spectacular.
After Xiao Shizhu's warship sailed into the ship formation, Changqin and his attendants were picked up by the boat sent by Zhu Rongjun. Xiao Shizhu did not stop him, but summoned his generals to a meeting on the flagship.
With Ying Zhao and King Kong, he just walked into the combat command room, and there were familiar faces that caught his eyes.
Lu Wu, Qin Yuan, Hu Hui, Xuanshui, Loess, Guiyu and other generals were all there, and of course, Quanxian, who was soaked in a wooden barrel full of seawater, was also among them.
"Friends. Xiao Shizhu squeezed his eyebrows, his eyes swept to the smiling faces of the ghosts, and then shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for half a year, everyone eats oily and slippery." It seems that the food in this county is good. ”。
"Hahaha. The ghosts then laughed in unison, and Xuan Shui said proudly in laughter: "Generally speaking, we basically eat beef at once. ”。
has been with Xiao Shizhu for a long time, and they also know that Jiyou is the honorific title given to them by Xiao Shizhu, which means good brothers, buddies, sworn friends, and comrades-in-arms.
This is a unique honor for Xiao Jiajun, a soldier who can be called so by Xiao Shizhu, then he is the pride and pride of their village.
"Look at what you can, beef alone can make you complacent?" After Xiao Shizhu sat down on the coach's throne, he looked at Xuanshui with a rather helpless look, shook his head and said: "It's not a dragon liver and phoenix gall, can you still eat your kid out of arrogance?"
"Hahaha. All the soldiers laughed heartily again.
"Okay, okay, get down to business. Xiao Shizhu let them laugh for a moment, and then waved his hand to signal them not to laugh anymore, and said with a smile: "I conveyed this combat mission to you all ten days ago, and as for the principles, I only have two points. First, we must not fight hard, because the opponent's ship is large, and we cannot fight hard with them; we must adopt the tactic of using the flexible maneuverability of small boats to attack and harass us. Second, the whole army starts with me, from top to bottom, every soldier must correct the attitude of Lao Tzu, put down the elite shelf, give me to fight cautiously, and do not underestimate the enemy. And as soon as the battle starts, you'll have to chop off a few enemy heads for me. ”。
"I don't kill too many enemies, and if you kill too little, I'll be very unhappy. Xiao Shizhu smiled and said, "But there is one thing, once you land, you can't disturb the people." What kind of robbery, ambush, can only be for the enemy army, whoever dares to do this to the local people, I will definitely let him fall to the ground. ”。
"Go ahead. Hu Hui, Lu Wuying will stay, and the others will prepare. Xiao Shizhu waved his hand, took out a letter from his sleeve, got up and handed it to the ghost, and said, "This is what your daughter asked me to bring to you." ”。
"Thank you. The ghost captives took the letter, bowed slightly to him, and walked out with the other generals.
When he was the only one left in the command room, after Lu Wuying recruited and Hu Hui, after Xiao Shizhu closed the door, he said to Hu Hui in a deep voice: "The plan has changed, Hu Hui, you quickly lead six warships, and two thousand Xiao family troops rush back to Zhentou County." ”。
