The night is getting dark, and the cold wind is getting colder.

The banks of the Yellow River are brightly lit.

Tonight's barracks also seemed to be restless.

The barracks had no windows, and many people lay at the door, standing by the wall at the door, staring at Zhenyuan Bridge uneasily.

The total length of Zhenyuan Bridge is 74 zhang, and in winter the bridge will become a real suspended bridge.

And at this time.

A famous soldier held a torch and completely illuminated both sides of the Yellow River.

Zhenyuan Bridge also turned into a fire dragon.

"Each guard listens to the order, takes 100 households as a phalanx, two people in parallel, and crosses the bridge in turn!"

"The bridge deck is hard and slippery, pay attention to your step, pay attention to help each other, and cross the bridge safely."

A strong voice resounded south of the bridge, and the general on a tall war horse was directing the soldiers to cross the bridge.

It was especially loud to hear in this empty night.

But it made them panic even more.

But anyone who marches in a hurry at night means that the war is urgent.

"What are you doing?"

"Bastard, do you want to kill everyone in our Wangjia Village?"

"Don't go back to the barracks, dog, tie up these turtles, and if you dare to escape, we won't leave your hometown and hand you over."

At the gate of the Wang family camp, the newly selected battalion was taking more than a dozen battalion soldiers to arrest a few people who wanted to escape.

These people knew that there was going to be a war in Saibei, and they were so frightened that they wanted to flee overnight.

But he was captured by the battalion.

It's not the dedication of the battalion and the battalion soldiers.

It was an order given by Lord Fang Xiaoru during the day.

Those who flee without telling will be beheaded by their relatives, and those who are connected will be guilty.

As long as one of the people in the battalion escapes, that person's relatives will be beheaded for the same crime, and the same villagers in the battalion will be punished.

So it's not that they don't want to, it's that they don't dare.

It is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, especially in the face of war, many people run to the deep mountains and old forests, especially now and for many days in the future, Lanxian will be in a state of high tension.

Once one person escapes, it is a group of people and quickly spreads to 100,000 people who cannot stop fleeing.

At that time, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of him, it will not be able to stop it.

Harsh punishment may not necessarily prevent crime, but it can set a threshold for the offender to drink 100 pounds of alcohol before he can cross it.

These days, following Li Xiyan to learn the Warring States Policy, Zhu Di can't help but jump out of a funny idea.

If the Skynet is installed on the basis of Qin Fa, there is a high probability that everyone will live in fear, and they don't even have the courage to steal a needle.

Of course, this is impossible, although Li Xiyan is old-fashioned, there is a saying that makes a lot of sense.

The state of Qin was strong because of the Qin law, but it also perished because of the Qin law.

Under the high pressure, there will be a rebound, and the deeper the suppression, the more intense the rebound of the people.

"The last general will meet His Highness, please forgive the last general for not being able to give full salutes with his armor on his body."

Three miles outside the palace military town, Wu Yan dismounted in the torch and saluted Zhu Di.

"General Wu has been fortunate all the way and doesn't need to be polite, Gong Changwei has already prepared his degree, and he will go into the camp to rest first." Zhu Di also greeted him politely against the cold wind.

"Hahaha, Your Highness, let's meet again!"

As he was talking, a rough sound came from the rear, and Lintao Wei Sun De hurried over, accompanied by Hezhou Wei Ningzheng.

Sun De was about to turn over and jump, and walked in front of Zhu Di with Ning Zheng, "The last general will meet His Highness." ”

"Since the generals are here, let's go into the camp with this king and rest." Zhu Di didn't want to brave the cold wind and stand for hours, since it was all ushered in, he would be frozen into a dog if he didn't go in.

In his opinion, it is not possible to be a lone wolf in the northwest, only a pack of wolves can hunt prey.

Even if it's not in a system.

But having a good relationship with Mu Ying, Ning Zheng, Sun De, Wu Yan, as well as Luo Rujing and Wu Mai, these Lanzhou Wei generals, is also an indispensable part of building a fiefdom.

Therefore he did not sit in the king's tent and wait, but went out of the tent three miles to meet him.

When he first came to Lan County, the generals of the entire Lanzhou Liuwei gave him a pick-up, and at that time, he was a guest from afar.

But now.

Except for Mu Ying, if these people come to Lan County again, then their identities are different, and it is his turn to pick up the wind and wash the dust for these people, and they are guests from afar.

This kind of acquiescence is an excellent state.

So.

This time it became!

This is called a gift exchange!

But this time, the mood of several people has changed a lot.

"Damn, Beiyuan is really crazy, such a big battle in the winter."

As soon as Ning Zheng arrived at the dinner table, he began to scold and become irritable, and it could be seen that this was the hatred for Beiyuan that had soared to the extreme of his life.

"Offensive or defensive?" Zhu Di also asked curiously, this is related to the fate of Lan County.

Attacking can win, defending can resist, in order to be solid.

"I don't know, what we received is General Mu's emergency military order, that is to say, Lanzhou Six Guards, once there is an emergency military situation, General Mu has the right to mobilize the forces of the Six Guards and deploy them according to the situation."

Sun De shook his head and said: "Before the battle, we have to wait until we arrive at Lanzhou to meet General Mu in the avant-garde and see the situation before we agree." ”

"In addition, this matter has been urgently reported to Deng Shuai, and the envoys have been commanded to send overguards as soon as possible, and then the fighter will be decided."

"However, the last general estimates that in the past, we still focused on defending, and the Yuan army rode half of Chen soldiers in Tengger Town, just because we can't attack the past, and it's a bit hanging to defend."

"Your Highness also has to be prepared, I'm afraid that there will be large-scale military transfers in the next few days, the situation is stable, if the Yuan cavalry attacks frequently, I'm afraid that Deng Shuai will command the envoys in the palace military town of His Highness."

"Of course, this is the empirical judgment of the last general,"

Wu Yan nodded, agreeing with Sun De's judgment, and then sighed: "However, the last general still admires His Highness's vision very much, and he actually set up the palace military town in Gaoling. ”

"This place guards the high ground, there are Gaolan thousand households to the north, and there are silver thousand households to the east, and Lanzhou Wei is on the left and right to guard the entrance of Qinchuan, which is of very high strategic significance."

"If this military town is successful, Lan County will be completely safe."

And actually.

There was another sentence that these people did not say.

The reason why they can speak freely is more because the king of the blue city set up the royal palace on the north side of the Yellow River, and it has a certain military significance.

Lan County includes both banks of the Yellow River, as well as Jinzhou, which is more than 100 miles south and is close to Hezhouwei.

For them, these are two very different meanings.
