Chapter 632: Sweeping the Dust in Front of the Door
The battle with Nie Bi's guards ended in a resounding victory for the Dreadnoughts, who, after chasing three hundred miles, stopped the defenders fleeing westward.
Night battles, melees, and sudden rocket and thunder strikes, the dreadnoughts played an astonishing proportion. Only more than 4,000 people were injured, and more than 30,000 opponents were taken, most of whom were taken prisoner, and only a few escaped by night.
The captured and captured military supplies were to be transported back to Liangsha Mountain, and looking at the groups of men and horses and wagons, the whole dreadnought army was very excited. However, in the atmosphere of such a big victory, there are also some discordant situations.
Since early in the morning, Wu Gan, the commander of the whole army, has disappeared and never appeared again. Surprised, someone inquired about his own coach because of the cold in the morning, he had a bad stomach and was bedridden.
The news came from the mouth of the bad breed named Niu Chao in the Lingyun Eight Cavalry, although this person has a very bad reputation in the army, he usually hangs around the boss, and what he says should be credible. But a master of the four realms has a bad stomach, what did he eat, the medicine of the tiger and wolf.
So, some believed, some doubted, but all in all, the joy of the big victory diluted the noise.
In a big tent next to the guards' camp, Wu Yan was lying on a tiger skin soft couch, holding a leg of mutton in his hand, and the corners of his mouth were stained with oil, scanning the bloodstained Nie Bi in the tent.
This is a middle-aged man, his eyes are full of fierce light, staring at Wu Gan, who has no manners.
In order to successfully take Nie Bi, Wu Gen not only sent Shui Congyue to pursue the remnants of the army this time, but also let Cangye and Lu Zhou follow him, in case Shui Congyue was injured, the two must join forces to take Nie Bi down.
"May it be." Wu Qian threw the lamb leg bone to the ground and wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth.
"A tailless man can only use some sneak attack tricks, so what qualifications does he have to make me surrender." Nie Bi sneered, glancing at the handsome man sitting in the tent. This person really deserves the reputation of pacifying the killer, and he tried his best to escape, but he was still caught up by him.
The battle lasted for a long time, and both of them were not lightly injured. However, Nie Bi became more and more weak-hearted, and after this person was injured, he became more and more courageous, and finally he was defeated by his hands and was captured alive.
"A general who left his subordinates and fled, how can he get so much backbone." Wu Yan sneered, got up and walked in front of the other party, stomped him to the ground, and pulled out his knife on Nie Bi's neck.
Nie Bi was silent for a moment before he spoke, "I am the governor of the Ji family, and you are also the governor of the Ji family, what qualifications do you have to kill me." Besides, if the Dreadnought Army attacks and kills colleagues without authorization, aren't you afraid that the Ji family will take you for the crime in the end."
"Who is asking me to blame, Ji Chen?" Wu Yan sneered and withdrew the knife, "He, Ji Chen, can attack his father and brother, such an unkind and unrighteous person, how can he be qualified to judge me, a person who is loyal to the Ji family."
And you, the dignified Ji family, saw that the lord was in trouble and did not think about avenging him, but instead acted for the tiger, and you also deserved to die. I am fearless of the army and the righteous teacher, begging the thief, and being upright, what is his face to ask for guilt."
"The lord is missing, and now the person in charge of the Ji family is Ji Chen, the eldest young lord has a generous temperament, and we and other generals with foreign surnames are treated as if they were the same clan, and now if you don't listen to his orders, who should you listen to. Under this general trend, our guards can only go with the flow, is it difficult to rebel against the Ji family. If you and other dreadnoughts send troops without authorization, how different is it from Lu Gu and other families." Nie Bi retorted unconvinced.
"Then we have to choose the best to follow, let's tell you the truth, this time I sent troops without fear, it was on the orders of the third young master, and I will definitely bring Ji Chen and other traitors to justice. If you will surrender, you will save your life. If you are obsessed, then bury Ji Chen." Wu Yan smiled coldly and threw the knife in his hand on the table, "I don't have time to talk to you, I think you are also the one who leads the troops, to surrender or not, be happy."
Nie Bi lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said dejectedly, "If you want to descend to me, you will only descend the three young masters."
"Yes, I will send you to the Third Young Master." Seeing that the other party gave in, Wu Yan was not verbose, and nodded at Zhuo Ke on the side, "Send him back to the mountain."
Drok was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood. Although the third young master did not know where to go, the third young master and his father stayed in the Liangsha Mountain, which was much better than Ji Yan.
Waiting for Nie Bi to leave, Wu Yan lay down on the soft couch again, reached out and grabbed a fruit and put it into his mouth, "Except
Except for some of the people who cleaned up the battlefield, the whole army quickly rushed to Ji Zhen's department, and after Ji Zhen's department retreated, the front army and the Chinese army attacked the lacquer carving family, and the left and right armies attacked the Yang family.
The lacquer carver and the Yang family have been beaten many times by our army, and they should be able to be taken quickly. In addition to leaving a few thousand soldiers and horses for Ji Nan, all the rest were escorted to Liangsha Mountain to serve as people's husbands. Wait until after the war to decide where they will stay or not. In short, before the Northern Expedition of the army, these hidden dangers in the surrounding area had to be eliminated one by one.
By the way, I need to heal my wounds these days, and you can decide everything in the army."
Baoxiang looked surprised, seeing what Wu Jian meant, he was about to be the shopkeeper again, "Then which military horse are you going to follow?"
"Don't go anywhere, I'll go to Liangsha Mountain to chat with Old Man Ji Xin to relieve boredom, old man, I can live longer when I feel comfortable, at least until we lay down Cold Land City." Wu Yan stretched his waist and touched his shoulder, which had wrapped a lot of gauze.
In fact, it's not that he wants to be lazy, it's just that Wu Jian thinks that in the future, with the growth of his military horses, many people here need to be alone, and he can't follow them all the time. Facing relatively weak opponents like the lacquer carver and the Yang family, it's time to let them try.
On the yellow plain of autumn grass, chariots and horses, a long line of men and horses, escorting the captives and booty towards the Liangsha Mountain.
Wu Yan sat in a wide carriage, leisurely crossed one leg, and there was already a pile of broken silver beside him.
"Big big ......" Niu Chao's eyes were red, staring at the dice cup in front of him, and suddenly, he turned his head to stare at Ji Chenming on the side, "Do you bet big or small."
Ji Chenming blinked, his hands clasped in his sleeves, "I will bet whatever the owner of the village bets."
"Doglegs, shameless, you can praise the stinky feet surnamed Wu." Niu Chao said angrily, "He bets small, I want to be big." The surname is Yang, let's go."
Yang Zheng looked at the two villains of the Dreadnought Army with a smile, and lightly tapped the dice cup with his finger, "Think about it, your silver has been lost, and if you lose again, you will have to take off your pants."
"Hurry up, what so much nonsense, you just talk too much nonsense to become fat like a pig." Niu Chao glared and touched his belt, how did this dead fat man know that he had no money, could it be that his eyes could see through.
Yang Zheng shook his head lightly, opened it and saw that there were only a few dice inside. Cocking his orchid finger, Yang Zheng pointed at Niu Chao opposite, "You lost, take it off."
Niu Chao slapped the carriage, pointed at Yang Zheng and said angrily, "You are cheating."
"Hehe, cheating, you're watching, it's obvious that you have bad hands and bad mouth. Even if you don't catch it, it proves that you are a waste. I am willing to lose the gamble, so take it off." Yang Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Niu Chao gloomily, "Chen Ming, help him."
"Whose money is that?" Ji Chenming suddenly pointed to the corner and said loudly.
"Where, that's mine." Niu Chao looked in the direction of his fingers, pouting his ass and rummaging through it.
Ji Chenming smiled slightly, revealing two good-looking dimples, and an extra dagger in his hand. Grabbing Niu Chao's belt from behind, the dagger slashed slightly, reached out and grabbed his pants and pulled it, and a piece of white mixed with a stench appeared in the car.
"Gu Jiayi, you despicable villain, dare to scare your father, see that I don't kill you." Niu Chao jumped up, but his head accidentally hit the roof of the carriage, and he jumped with his head in pain.
After resting a little, Niu Chao was just about to pounce and fight with Ji Chenming, only to feel that his crotch was cold, and when he looked down, he saw that a dagger was just on his life.
Looking at Ji Chenming with a sinister smile, Niu Chao was about to have a seizure, and Zhuo Ke jumped into the carriage from outside. Seeing the two of them looking so dirty, their faces couldn't help sinking, and they reached out to grab Niu Chao and Ji Chenming, and threw them out of the carriage.
"The owner of the village, Hu Sima sent a letter, Ji Zhen led people to run away." Zhuo Ke handed a letter to Wu Gan.
Wu Yan leaned on the carriage and looked at the bright light through the window. The letter was written by Hu Jia, and it mentioned that the dreadnought army marched all the way to the west and quickly arrived at Ji Zhen's military village.
The other side did not resist much, and left a large amount of baggage and ran north with men, and the dreadnoughts only captured a small number of people. After chasing out a hundred miles,
Shui Congyue ordered the whole army to turn back, and the troops were divided into two routes, killing the lacquer carver and the Yang family non-stop.
Wu Yan flicked the letter with his fingers and handed it to Yang Zheng, "Now that the grain and grass of the Ziwei Army have fallen into our hands, it can support us for a while. After taking down the lacquer carver and the Yang family, and then collecting some grain and grass, our army's Northern Expedition should be worry-free. By the way, the people who infiltrated the two families in front of them are in place."
Today's fearless soldiers may not be lacking, the most lacking is grain and grass, which is why Wu Gen still had to work hard to attack the guards and the lacquer carver and the Yang family before the Northern Expedition, just to collect military supplies for the war.
"It's worry-free, under our noses, plus the Lu family was exterminated by Ji Nan, many people in these two families have already had different intentions, and it is still very easy to buy a few people. Men are placed in every city, and when our army arrives, they will make a disturbance in the city, open the gates, and attack the defenders, and the battle will not be very difficult." Yang Zheng glanced at the letter and said with pity.
"Okay, this is the matter, I will also accompany our Lord Ji Xin on the Northern Expedition, with him, even if Ji Yan disappears, we can also have a moral advantage." Wu Yan lay lazily in the car, he hasn't gotten out of the car these days, and his body is about to rust, "By the way, where did you say Ji Yan ran away, if something happens to her, I'm afraid that Congyue will be unhappy."
"It's either Hanlu City or Zhaoqin City, where can she run. Rest assured, she is not Ji Ye and has no threat to Ji Chen. And Ji Chen has already taken on a great reputation, it is impossible to kill his sister again, at most lock her up." Yang Zheng looked disapproving, with Ji Xin in the mountains, there is not much difference between Ji Yan being and not there, and the only thing that needs to be taken into account now is Shui Congyue.
Although he didn't even look at Ji Yanzheng, but the girl ran so far to Liangsha Mountain, and the family suffered drastic changes, and the temperament of bullying the strong and compassionate the weak with water from the moon may have some heart for Ji Yan.
"Okay, as long as she is fine, otherwise, Murong Yanyu dares to attack Ji Yan, I have to kill her." Wu Yan squeezed his fist viciously and waved it a few times in the air.
"If Murong Yanyu attacks Ji Yan, you kill her sister, isn't this even off." Yang Zheng stared at Wu Yan with a playful expression.
"." Wu Yan kicked Yang Zheng, and suddenly said with some puzzlement: "I understand Murong Yanyu's arrest of Ji Ye, but why should he lock up his own sister."
Yang Zheng hesitated for a moment, and Fang said in a low voice: "A few days ago, I chatted with Ji Xin, and I heard him say that he had already given up making Ji Chen the crown prince and was ready to let Murong Yuqiang marry Ji Ye, and the two of them were the crown prince and the crown princess respectively."
"Huh?" Wu Yan sat up from the car, his face stunned, "And this thing, no wonder. Forget it, let's save her when we save Himeya."
For a while, Wu Gen committed the common problem that most men have, and a complicated emotion appeared in his heart. It's like seeing a beautiful flower, although I have no intention of picking it, but when I see it being taken by others, my heart is always a little pantothenic.
"By the way, Zhuoke, after you go back this time, you can stay in the Liangsha Mountain with your rear army, and you don't have to go out on the Northern Expedition. When I go back, I will quietly take Ji Xin to join the armies." Seeing Yang Zheng's smiling expression, Wu Yan quickly changed the topic.
"Village master, can I go out with the army, can I send others to stay in the mountains." Zhuo Ke hesitated for a moment and looked at Wu Yan aggrievedly.
"Silly boy, of course fighting a war is a beautiful scenery, but Liangsha Mountain is our foundation, and we must not lose it. Without this foundation, our dreadnoughts will become lost dogs. Defend the mountain well, don't let our dreadnoughts lose their homes." Wu Yan raised his hand, originally wanting to touch Zhuo Ke's head, but when he thought that he was also the commander of the army, he had to pat his shoulder gently.
"Okay, I'll listen to the owner." Zhuo Ke finally responded, but his expression was still a little depressed.
"Don't worry, you'll have a place to use it in the future. When we take Hengmen Port, the sailor will inevitably be formed, and you have good water nature, so this sailor will be handed over to you."
"Really."
"When did your owner stop talking. Haha......"
