Chapter 518 Born as a hero, dead as a ghost!
Following.
It wasn't until early in the morning that the restlessness of the Sword Gate Pass gradually subsided.
But Chen Yuan still saw that one after another orders were issued from the door, and news came from outside the gate, and a solemn momentum was gradually rising.
In the main hall.
Wei Dufeng, the king of Northern Liang, was dressed in golden armor, sitting on the top with a golden sword, Wei Wuji, the prince of the world, was standing aside and waiting, and Chen Yuan was sitting under his left head.
It stands to reason that with Chen Yuan's strength, he is not qualified to sit on the left.
Because since ancient times, the left is precious.
And in the current hall, there are four generals of the Beiliang Army who have turned into Yang cultivation, but they are all sitting under Chen Yuan.
This is the order of the King of Beiliang, and naturally no one dares to disobey it.
Chen Yuan himself was a little confused, just listening to the military orders of the King of Beiliang with calm eyes, but he was a little vigilant in his heart, after all, there must be demons when things go wrong.
There were only a few of them sitting in the main hall, and it was still a little empty at a glance.
As far as Chen Yuan knew, the entire Beiliang Army was divided into four large battalions.
That is, earth, water, wind, and fire.
Of these four battalions, further down the distribution ....
Now the few things that are made in the main hall are earth, water, wind... The commander of the four major battalions, the fire word battalion is not among them, and the other person is the commander of the dark guard battalion.
It can be said that all the people sitting here are the leaders of the Beiliang Army, and he is an official of the Heaven Survey Division, which is indeed a little uncoordinated.
"How's it going?"
Wei Qianfeng asked with a calm face.
Since the first time Chen Yuan saw Wei Qianfeng, he had been like this, immobile as a mountain.
"Lord Wang, the latest information, the Northern Barbarian Army has entered the territory of Liangzhou, and overnight, it swept away six passes, a total of 10,000 people were defeated and retreated, and there were dead and wounded..."
The Dark Guard General opened his mouth to report.
"Go on."
"Hmm.... The barbarians have divided their forces. ”
"How much?"
"There are almost nearly 200,000 of them, and when they approached the border of Liangzhou, they turned around, and they guessed that they should go to Youzhou."
"Hmm."
"Lord Wang." The general of the mountain character battalion arched his hand:
"The fire word battalion guards Yishui Pass, isn't it a bit risky?"
"This king has his own decision on this matter, you just need to know that the Huozi Battalion will not enter the Sword Gate Pass, and whether you can hold it or not depends on your three major battalions."
Wei Qianfeng raised his hand and stopped him from continuing to question.
"Yes, the Admiral understands."
"The scattered villages outside can't stop the barbarians, pass on the latest military order of the king, after resisting for an hour, you can retreat by yourself and retreat into the Jianmen Pass."
"But in that case, then... Isn't there too much territory to give up? Wei Wujian on the side said with some hesitation.
In the past, to resist the northern barbarians knocking on the passes, relying on one after another villages all over the border, although the number of people is not large, but relying on the large array can still make the barbarians deflated.
Under the resistance step by step, at least in recent decades, Liangzhou has not suffered much damage.
"It's too scattered, it can't stop the Northern Barbarian Army, this time it's not tens of thousands of barbarians, it's hundreds of thousands of barbarians, even if it's a division of troops, this number is too huge. It only takes a few important towns to resist step by step. ”
"Father's want to resist at the Sword Gate?"
"This king has his own plans."
Wei Qianfeng said in a deep voice.
"Yes."
Wei Qianfeng's gaze looked around the following circle, and continued:
"The Fengzi battalion is divided into three 10,000-strong iron cavalry, which does not guard the town, and randomly attacks and harasses at the border, if you encounter a small number of barbarian pioneers, you can do it directly, and if you encounter a large army, you will immediately retreat."
"Yes, the last general obeys!"
The general of the Fengzi Battalion hurriedly said.
Each big battalion of the Northern Liang Army has its own habits, such as their Fengzi battalion, and the prominent one is a fast and fast war horse, all of which are extremely fast.
He has repeatedly penetrated deep into the edge of the grassland to harass.
The fire battalion stands out as a fiery battalion, with its combat power superior to the four major battalions, the most powerful battalion, and only this battalion can hold an important town.
The outstanding thing about the mountain battalion is that it is as stable as a mountain, the first of the four major battalions in equipment, and its combat power is second only to the fire battalion, and it is the best at defending the city.
The water battalion stands out as soft as water, the most difficult, and the four major battalions of combat power are at the bottom, but they are the most tenacious.
Each battalion has more than 50,000 iron horsemen, and the number is not equal.
"Lord Wang, when will the support from the imperial court arrive?" The general of the water word battalion asked.
As soon as he spoke, the rest of the generals in the hall turned their eyes to the King of Beiliang.
Their camp at Jianmen Pass was not in its heyday.
Their three battalions are all divided into troops, and now the entire Jianmen is only 150,000 elite soldiers plus tens of thousands of ordinary troops.
No matter how you count it, it is less than 200,000.
What about the barbarians?
Even if you remove the 200,000 troops, there are 500,000 elite iron horses, plus those martial arts powerhouses, the strength is not equal at all.
The most important thing is that there is only one Yang God True Monarch in the entire Jianmen Pass, King Beiliang.
There are at least three on the Beiban side.
Therefore, reinforcements from the imperial court must be counted.
You don't have to count on it, there will be no division of troops over there, and it is estimated that the prince will not strictly order support over there, after all, he looks at the overall situation.
If the barbarians break through Youzhou, the situation here will basically be irreparable.
Wei Qianfeng calmed down and said:
"Your Majesty has decreed that 300,000 elite soldiers will be mobilized from the capital and Bingzhou, and will be led by Generalissimo Shenwu Zhenjun to rush to the border."
Hearing this, those people breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good to have reinforcements, they are most afraid of fighting alone.
Worth! It's really not worth it!
"In addition to this decree, a new decree was issued overnight in the capital." When Wei Qianfeng said this, he slowly turned his gaze to Chen Yuan.
The eyes full of meaning suddenly made Chen Yuan stunned for a moment.
Does it have anything to do with him?
"What will?"
Several people glanced at each other, and the general of the mountain battalion asked.
"Your Majesty wants to transfer Chen Yuan back to the capital, and he has another important task."
Hearing this, the faces of several generals suddenly became a little ugly, and their eyes swept towards Chen Yuan, their eyes were a little complicated, with disdain, contempt, and indifference.
Beiban knocked on the pass, but issued an order to transfer Chen Yuan away overnight.
Just think about it, you know what it means, and once it gets out, it will inevitably damage morale, especially those in the Sky Survey Division.
Chen Yuan said that he was high-sounding before, he wanted to go to the national disaster and fight against the Northern Barbarians together, but he was transferred away in a blink of an eye, who can not think about it in his heart?
Even Wei Wuji, the son of the family, frowned, but didn't say anything.
Wei Qianfeng took in the expressions of several people, and then turned to Chen Yuan, as if he wanted to see something from his face, but unfortunately, Chen Yuan always remained calm.
Said slowly:
"Chen Jinenvoy, what do you think, do you intend to transfer back to the capital to serve?"
Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes, thinking a lot in his heart, especially looking at Wei Qianfeng's calm eyes, he suddenly thought in his heart, and said in a deep voice:
"At the moment of the great enemy of the Northern Barbarians, if Chen returns to Beijing, the impact will be too great, and I ask the prince to refuse on his behalf."
"Oh?"
Wei Qianfeng looked at him with interest.
The rest of the eyes in the hall also converged on him, as if they were searching for something else.
Chen Yuan stood up and said in a righteous voice:
"Although Yuan is only seven feet in body, he is also willing to use this insignificant strength to fight against the Northern Barbarians, and hundreds of years of blood feud are deeply imprinted in the hearts of the people of the Central Plains.
How can you back down at this critical juncture? ”
"No matter what others do, Chen will never leave Liangzhou, he is a hero in life, and he is a ghost in death, just a barbarian, what is there to fear?"
"Life is a hero, death is also a ghost...."
Chen Yuan's two five-character poems immediately opened his mouth suddenly changed the atmosphere in the hall, and several generals in the Beiliang Army retracted their previous disdainful looks.
There is even some shame.
It was they who crossed the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.
When I looked up again, there was already a sense of recognition in my eyes.
Even, Chen Yuan stood there, as if his body was glowing.
"Okay, this king knows your mind, yes, the name of the first day of the Central Plains was not in vain," Wei Qianfeng nodded appreciatively, and then his face froze, and he ordered:
"Passing on the military order of the king, the whole territory of Liangzhou ....."
After everyone left, only Wei Qianfeng and Wei Wuji, father and son, were left in the entire hall, and after a moment of silence, Wei Wujian broke the silence:
"If Chen Yuan chooses to leave, what will my father do?"
Wei Qianfeng replied in a condensed voice:
"In Liangzhou, this king is the sky, Jingtai's holy decree is useful to listen to, if it is useless, it is a piece of waste paper, Chen Yuan is still useful to this king, naturally it is impossible to let him leave.
Moreover, he himself does not seem to want to leave. ”
"Yes, a bold one."
Wei Qianfeng still had a sentence in his heart.
What is said is that Chen Yuan deserves to be the son of the Xiang family!
In the eight hundred years since the founding of the Great Chu Dynasty, there have been mediocre monarchs, weak monarchs, and monarchs who died early, but there are no monarchs who surrendered.
Lead the power of the dynasty and fight to the last soldier.
Wei Qianfeng still admires this.
Wei Wujian suddenly realized this, and he said, with the character of his father, asking those words in the hall today must have a deep meaning, and it is impossible to really want Chen Yuan to leave.
But what Chen Yuan said today did have the courage.
After all, no matter what, the other side did not back down, but chose to fight with the barbarians.
"Today, you will spread the words that Chen Yuan said throughout the entire Jianmen Pass and even the entire territory of Liangzhou, and then there are intercessors, they will not be spared, and they will come to Liangzhou for military merit, and if they are in danger, they will run, Liangzhou.... It's not that cheap. ”
"The child understands."
"Father, there is one more thing for the child." Wei Wuji's voice changed and continued.
"Say."
"The court may not be credible, and my father should be cautious." Wei Wujian said very solemnly.
"This king naturally knows about this matter, and the Sima family's temperament has almost been able to figure it out after so many years, and the reinforcements... Hehe... I'm afraid that I won't come forward to clean up the scene until most of the Beiliang army is destroyed. ”
"Then you...."
"Stabilize the morale of the army, the disparity between the strength of Liangzhou and the Northern Barbarians is too great, if the morale of the army is unstable, it will be difficult to win."
"Got it."
"For my father, I have my own plans, no matter what, I will never let the Northern Barbarians capture Liangzhou, and any price can be paid." There was a hint of coldness in Wei Qianfeng's eyes.
"The boy will go back to camp at once."
Wei Wujian immediately said.
"Go ahead, without tempering, it will be embarrassing, the Beiliang Army will still be handed over to you after all, but first you have to let everyone obey you."
"Yes."
"Also, maintain a good relationship with Chen Yuan, this kid is not simple, Bei Liang may borrow his strength in the future."
"The child understands."
When Wei Wujian left, Wei Qianfeng's gaze gradually softened, and then he let out a turbid breath, and took out a simple and mysterious talisman from his sleeve and stared at it for a long time.
......
......
Leaving the Jianmen Pass Palace, Chen Yuan received Wei Qianfeng's military order and began to prepare for the upcoming battle, and his heart couldn't help but be excited.
Riding on the horse field, iron-blooded killing, this is every man's dream.
Chen Yuan is no exception.
He likes the scene of raising his arms and shouting and everyone worshipping.
And have been working in this direction.
A few days later, the confrontation between Bei Liang and Bei Barbarian officially began, and it was not as simple as the direct confrontation between the two armies that Chen Yuan imagined at the beginning, since the smoke was lit that night.
The Northern Barbarians have been sending small groups of cavalry to attack the city and burn the farmland.
Destroy all the creatures you see.
And the Beiliang army was also trying its best to resist, constantly killing the small groups of cavalry sent by the Gujin Royal Court, and in just a few days, they fought more than 100 times.
The frequency is not insignificant.
However, these efforts seemed to be in vain, and the Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry was still advancing in the direction of Jianmen Pass at a steady and determined speed.
Every day, all kinds of remnants of the defeated army will retreat into the Sword Gate Pass.
The defeat of the Northern Liang army has been revealed.
And the more this is the case, the more some people in Jianmen Pass are panicking, most of the Beiliang army is still stable, but the remaining recruited soldiers and the government army of Fucheng and Zhou City below are a little insufficient.
In addition to the high morale at the beginning, the morale is declining even more every day.
And as more and more people are killed, this atmosphere is getting higher and higher.
But Wei Qianfeng didn't care at all, as if he couldn't see it, he still calmly issued various military orders every day, and even Chen Yuan was sent out to carry out a mission.
That time it was Chen Yuan who led 1,005 Sky Patrol Guards to face the 3,000 barbarian vanguards.
Of course, Chen Yuan didn't move at all, these people were not enough for him to kill himself, so he directly let the people below face the methods of the barbarians.
At the cost of one hundred and two deaths and three hundred and seven injuries, the 1,050 elite Sky Survey Guards completely slaughtered the 3,000 barbarian pioneers, and built a Jingguan according to Chen Yuan's instructions!
This was the first military feat to be recorded, and when he returned, he found that many people looked at him a little differently.
It was filled with admiring glances.
After understanding, Chen Yuan understood.
It turned out that on that day, Chen Yuan's words in the main hall were spread out, and the ten words of life as a hero and death as a ghost began to circulate wildly in Jianmen Pass.
Everyone knew that Chen Yuan had a chance to leave, and the emperor personally ordered him to return to Beijing, but he refused without hesitation.
even recited a charge of resisting the decree, just to fight against the Northern Barbarians.
What a spirit?
How loyal?
Who listens to this deed and does not admire it?
But Chen Yuan just smiled, he was not stupid, Wei Qianfeng had said before that there would be a heavy responsibility handed over to him, how could he let him go?
Moreover, once you leave, the reputation you have accumulated before is gone.
Anyway, Moro's predecessors are by his side, and his life will not be in danger here, so why not take this opportunity to make a military merit and pave the way for the future?
Also, he was still thinking, wouldn't such a big event meet the son of luck of the barbarians?
How can you leave this good thing?
So he wisely chose to deal with it head-on.
Later, contrary to his expectations, the influence became bigger and bigger, and even he didn't push it, so it spread throughout the whole territory of Liangzhou and spread towards the Central Plains.
Chen Qing made his fame go to the next level!
But the deep-seated reasons hidden in this have to make him think deeply.
Is it really just a simple chant?
He didn't think so.
To spread throughout the entire territory of Liangzhou in just a few days, someone must have pushed it.
And the identity of this person is about to be revealed.
King of Beiliang, Wei Dufeng!
In addition to him, there is no second person in the entire Beiliang who has such a ability.
His purpose was unknown, but Chen Yuan could guess a little, and there should be a part of it that wanted to tie him up and use his fame to tie him down.
But....
In the great battle, what is the use of tying him up as a Dan Realm Grandmaster?
Could it be that he knows the big number of Shura Demon Lords?
This had to make Chen Yuan think deeply.
But no matter how you think about it, you can't figure out why he can see through it?
What he didn't know was that the reason why Wei Qianfeng did this was to use him as a typical figure to boost the morale of the army, after all, he was young, highly talented, and had unlimited possibilities in the future.
At the same time, it is also famous.
Such people have given up returning to the safe capital and chose to fight with the Northern Barbarians, why do those related households want to leave?
In terms of talent, age, and reputation, which of you is comparable to the famous demon sword Chen Yuan, the first day of the Central Plains?
As for the background.
Whose background has Beiliang Wang Da?
In addition to this aspect, another aspect is that Wei Qianfeng wants to use Chen Yuan to fish out Xiang Qianqiu and use his strength.
After all, Chen Yuan is his only son, and this son is still a talented heir, and it is impossible for anyone to give up such an heir bloodline.
Also, he always felt that Xiang Qianqiu wanted to do something big, and Chen Yuan was the most important chess piece.
Putting aside the bloodline, even if it is only about chess pieces, can Xiang Qianqiu easily give up this chess piece that has gradually grown up?
These are Wei Qianfeng's thoughts.
As for the vest of the 'Shura Demon Lord' that Chen Yuan was thinking, he didn't have the ability to penetrate the heavens, and he could see through the arrangement of a Six Realms immortal.
Even though this immortal is already crippled, it is also an immortal.
Immortals who have attained the Tao!
Chen Yuan's reputation intensified, and the attacks of the Northern Barbarians became more and more frenzied, and the several important towns left by Wei Qianfeng were being attacked by Meng Fierce every day.
If it weren't for the great array, if it weren't for the fact that the real powerhouses of the Northern Barbarians hadn't come forward, these important towns would have been broken.
And just when Beiban was gradually advancing, another news came out, which made the people of Liangzhou a little flustered and even desperate.
The 200,000 troops of the Northern Barbarians are not ordinary servant troops, but real elite iron cavalry, under the leadership of the god general Wanyanshu, who attacked the border of Youzhou.
So far, the border pass in Youzhou has been broken.
Nearly one-fifth of the territory was occupied.
The cool and secluded border, the whole line is in an emergency!
