Chapter 373: The Iron Eagle Army's Commander

The day before the oath meeting, two fast horses left the east gate of Nanshan County and went straight to the camp of the Iron Eagle Legion.

Riding a red horse is Yin Falcon, Ye Yunyang is riding a white horse, wearing a beige power suit, a pink-faced little Langjun.

"Yun Yang, I don't understand, why don't you use the county guard, but the two of us rode alone to see Cao Ziang?" Yin Ying asked.

Ye Yunyang smiled faintly and said: "I went to see General Cao as a junior on this trip, and I didn't use the county guard, because I didn't want the other party to think that I liked to show off, and I didn't take the little county lord Liu Yuying, because I didn't want the other party to think that I was a fox and a tiger, just to leave a better first impression on him." ”

After all, what happened last time made him feel a little sorry, so he lowered his posture and apologized to the Iron Eagle Legion.

Yin Falcon said with some worry: "I'm afraid that the surname Cao won't appreciate it, and I thought we were afraid of him." ”

Ye Yunyang shrugged: "It's okay, if he treats us as honored guests, I will be polite to him, if he shows arrogance and invincibility, I will just treat him, and it can be regarded as a prestige." ”

The Iron Eagle Legion is stationed ten miles outside the city, the camp seems to be orderly, the camp gate, antlers, and trenches are very well configured, worthy of being a veteran of the long-term battlefield, just from the fact that he is encamped, it can reflect the difference between him and ordinary generals.

According to the convention, when the garrison is in the territory of the country, and it is close to the city, there is no need to dig a trench outside the big camp, after all, it is only a short-term station, and soon the army will be raised to the southern barbarians.

However, Cao Ziang not only ordered the soldiers to dig trenches, but also strictly followed the regulations, and there should be no sloppiness in size.

The one-foot-wide earthen ditch looks inconspicuous, but it is very effective against the enemy's cavalry, and when the enemy is hindered in front of the trench and cannot advance, the camp can be caught off guard by ten thousand arrows.

Yin Falcon was also very convinced, Cao Ziang was able to be in charge of the Iron Eagle Legion for more than ten years, and fought against Daqin dozens of times, which was by no means in vain.

When the two came to the gate of the barracks, they were greeted by several soldiers armed with spears, and one of them opened his mouth and asked, "Who dares to trespass on the barracks?" ”

Neither of them was wearing armor, so the other would be so unkind.

In Ye Yunyang's opinion, even if they put on armor, it is estimated that they are still the same unkind.

Yin Falcon took out a badge and said loudly: "This is Lord Ye Yunyang, the Duke of Nanshan County and General Fulin, and I am Yin Falcon, the general of Nanshan, and I have come to see General Cao Ziang, the commander of the Iron Eagle Army. ”

The little soldier was expressionless and said, "You stand aside and wait, don't block our gate, I'll go and inform the general on duty." ”

Yin Falcon was angry: "What, let us wait? We have to stand aside and wait, can't block your door?"

The little soldier said arrogantly: "Yes, this is the rule of our Iron Eagle Army!"

"You tell me clearly, this is Lord Ye Yunyang, the Duke of Nanshan County, who came to see your main general, General Cao, and actually didn't let us in!" Yin Falcon was furious.

Xiao Bing snorted: "There are strict rules in this army, all outsiders must wait outside the door honestly, and they can only enter after obtaining the permission of the Lord General, not to mention a small county prince, even His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are here, and it is the same rule." ”

Yin Falcon stretched out his hand and pressed the hilt of the sword: "You are presumptuous......"

Ye Yunyang waved his hand: "Uncle Yin, there is no need to be angry with a small soldier, he is just carrying out General Cao's orders, since even the emperor and the crown prince have to abide by the rules, not to mention that let's just wait, anyway, we have time." ”

Yin Falcon nodded, but did not forget to say angrily to the little soldier: "Don't hurry up and tell your lord." ”

The little soldier was not in a hurry, and said in an angry tone: "What's the hurry, I can only see the general on duty, and he will report to the general of the patrol camp, and then report to the general of the Chinese army, and the general of the Chinese army will present the chief general in person. ”

Yin Falcon couldn't wait to draw his sword and slash him, he had seen an arrogant and domineering person, but he had never seen such a horizontal one, a small soldier was arrogant to such an extent, what kind of general their general had to be.

Ye Yunyang was not angry, and persuaded with a smile: "People are strict in governing the army, we are guests and hosts, it doesn't matter." ”

The two of them waited for fifteen minutes before a fellow who claimed to be the general on duty arrived, claiming to have received an order from the chief general to allow them to enter the camp.

Yin Falcon was even more angry, you must know that when Cao Ziang went to Nanshan County, he went to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion to greet him, and now when he came to visit him, he didn't even go out to greet him, it was too crazy.

If it was just one of the Nanshan generals who appeared, the level was below the main general of the Iron Eagle Army, and if he didn't greet him, he wouldn't greet him, Ye Yunyang was the leader of the highest military division in the Nanban operation this time, and Cao Ziang was too blind.

Under the leadership of the general on duty, the two turned around and finally came to the big tent of the Chinese army.

I thought I would just go in directly, but the general on duty said expressionlessly: "Please dismount the two of you, this army stipulates that no one is allowed to ride a horse to approach the big tent of the Chinese army." ”

Ye Yunyang glanced at Yin Falcon and took the lead in dismounting.

Reluctantly, Yin Falcon jumped off his horse and handed the reins to the soldier next to him.

When he came to the door of the big tent of the Chinese army, the general on duty said again: "Wait a minute, the last general will go in and say goodbye." ”

Yin Falcon is about to explode, the rules of the Iron Eagle Army are really big, just wait at the gate, you have to wait at the gate of the Chinese army, even if you see the emperor, it is not so troublesome, at least no one will stop you when you enter the palace gate.

After a while, laughter came from the tent: "Hahaha, the county prince of Nanshan and the general of Nanshan are here, and they will be disappointed, forgive their sins." ”

With the voice, an old general with gray beard walked out of the big tent and said to the two: "Two adults, please come into the tent and speak." ”

He is Cao Ziang, seventy years old this year, a master of the Golden Body Realm Reading Period, and a general with both martial arts rank and strategy and tactics in the Han Army.

Under normal circumstances, people with high martial arts rank are not very good at the art of war, and those who are good at the art of war strategy are not very good at cultivation.

For example, the ghost-faced horse, he only has the martial artist level of the Tongyuan Realm, but it does not affect his command of more than one million ghost-faced legions, let alone his command of the masters of the Jindan Realm and the Yaokong Realm, and no one dares to disobey his orders.

Another example is Wu Qinglin and Zheng Zhiyuan, although they have super high personal strength, they do not have the ability to lead.

A general like Cao Ziang who is both hierarchical and good at strategy is very rare in the Holy Heaven Continent.

"Hmph!" Yin Falcon didn't have a good impression of him, so as to express his dissatisfaction.

Ye Yunyang had a smile on his face and said, "General Cao is polite, the two of us have suddenly visited, causing inconvenience to the general, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

Cao Ziang showed a smug look, made a gesture of invitation with a big grin, and without waiting for Ye Yun to take a step, he walked into the tent first.

This is very rude.

Even more impolite was yet to come, there were at least a dozen people in the big tent, dressed in the armor of a high-ranking general, with mocking expressions on their faces.

You must know that Ye Yunyang and Yin Falcon had already appeared at the gate of the camp more than half an hour ago, and Cao Ziang had enough time for these people to leave the big tent and meet the two alone.

And he did not do this, the generals continued to sit on the ground, and no one stood up.

"Everyone!" Cao Ziang spat out two words from his mouth, and the generals immediately stood up, their bodies collapsing straight.

Cao Ziang introduced: "Distinguished guests come to the door, one is Ye Yunyang, the prince of Nanshan County and the general of Fulin, and the other is Yin Falcon, the general of Nanshan, you haven't seen the two adults. ”

The generals clenched their fists mechanically and shouted in uneven tones: "The last general will meet the prince of Nanshan County and the general of Nanshan." ”

There was a strong taste of disdain in his voice, if it weren't for Ye Yunyang's eyes one after another, Yin Falcon would definitely have turned his face.

Cao Ziang casually pointed to the two Maza next to the main seat and said, "Two lords, please take a seat, the conditions in the army are poor, and I hope you can understand." ”

The two little Maza, and then look at the generals sitting on a futon wrapped in brocade, and the grade is judged.

Ye Yunyang sneered, this was the first time he had endured it for so long and expressed his dissatisfaction.

Cao Ziang didn't see anything, walked to the main seat and sat down, and asked, "I don't know what the two adults are doing to visit our army?"

All the generals also sat down again, ignoring Yin Falcon's eyes that wanted to eat people.

Ye Yunyang stretched out his hand to pick up the mazah, straightened it and sat down, and said, "It's nothing too important, it's just to visit General Cao, and by the way, to discuss the march after tomorrow's oath meeting." ”

Yin Falcon sat down angrily, he had been in the army for so long, and he had never been so angry.

Hearing the word discussion, Cao Ziang's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that the young talents of Nanshan County Prince, today I saw that it was really extraordinary, and he was named the county prince by His Majesty at a young age, and served as the head coach, which is really enviable." The general's grandson is about the same age as you, and has served in the Iron Eagle Army for many years, and has made some achievements, but he is only a captain now. ”

Ye Yunyang frowned, this refers to Sang scolding Huai, implying that he has no merit or qualifications, and it is nothing more than relying on the emperor's favor to get the position of the commander of the expedition to the Southern Barbarians, which is unconvincing.

"General Cao has experienced a hundred battles, and he is a rare brave general in my Han Dynasty. Ye Yunyang maintained his previous politeness.

Cao Ziang was not polite at all, and waved his hand: "Okay, if you have any questions in the future, just ask, this general knows everything, and you might as well hand over all military matters to this general, Nanshan County Gongda doesn't have to worry about these things, and besides, you may not be able to do a good job, right?"

Ye Yunyang sneered, Yin Yingteng stood up, and said angrily: "Cao Ziang, what do you mean, Ye Jungong is the supreme commander of this expedition to the Southern Barbarians, do you want to seize power?"

Cao Ziang-for-tat: "Of course, this general does not want to seize power, but to take power! The 300,000 army is handed over to a milky boy to command, it is simply a joke, this general, as the chief general of the Iron Eagle Legion, must be responsible for 200,000 soldiers, how can it be a child's play in military affairs!"

"It's just that we don't feel comfortable being commanded by a hairy boy. Someone chimed in.

"The milky smell is dry, what qualifications do you have to give orders?"

"A general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies, and his power will definitely kill us all. ”

The generals didn't know how to shy away at all, and they spoke louder and louder.

Ye Yunyang spoke: "General Cao, please forgive the county's public talents for being uneducated, I really can't tell the difference between taking power and seizing power. ”

Cao Ziang smiled: "The commander of the three armies is still up to you, but it is up to me to give orders, and things such as marching, retreating, and setting up camp are all up to me." Only in this way will I recognize you, the chief general of the three armed forces, otherwise, don't blame Ben for not giving face. ”
