Chapter 340: Those who have attained the Tao are more helpful

"Forget it. Now that you've decided, let's move forward. Wu Nian shook his head and shook off the uneasiness in his heart. Then he stood up, tied his hair with a cyan ribbon, and made it into a ponytail. Then he came to the side, drew his steel knife, and walked out of the tent.

"General!"

A group of personal soldiers in charge of guarding bowed their heads in unison and saluted.

"I'll go over there and practice my sword skills for a while." Wu Nian nodded and walked towards a big tree next to him. The group of pro-soldiers immediately divided into two teams, one of which followed Wu Nian and walked over and scattered around to be on guard.

"Hoo !!" Coming to the shadows, Wu Nian held a steel knife in his hand, and after taking a deep breath, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and he played with knife skills.

Muscles don't happen overnight.

As his body became stronger and stronger, Wu Nian's knife skills became more and more powerful and powerful.

While the surrounding soldiers were on guard, they looked at Wu Nian who was practicing swords from time to time. His eyes were full of respect, and he said secretly in his heart.

"The general's knife technique is fierce and fierce, if it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to catch a single sword."

"The general's physique is really different from ordinary people. is worthy of being a good man who can tie with Wan Yanxian. ”

After Wu Nian played a set of knife techniques, he sweated like rain. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he also conducted hand-to-hand training to keep his body up.

But it can be stopped, after all, tomorrow is the breakthrough of the breakthrough.

After the end of the day, Wu Nian greeted his soldiers and went back to the big tent. Eat wheat cakes and eggs to replenish energy and protein.

This protein is not eaten for free. Tomorrow he will definitely be better than he is today.

In this calm, time passed. Soon the sun was setting in the west, and the day was coming to an end.

There was an incident on the west side of the camp gate.

The militia guarding the gate of the camp did not slack off, their eyes were as wide as brass bells, and their ears were pricked up, listening to the voices of all directions.

Someone immediately heard the movement.

"Vocal !!" One of the militiamen's faces changed and shouted.

"Alert !!" The screams caused a chain reaction, and the officers screamed. The archer drew his bow and sweated like rain.

In the end, it's a new recruit, and it's not okay to be nervous.

"Don't let go of the arrows. I'm an old man. In a place where the militia could not see, behind a big tree, an old man in black with gray hair shouted loudly.

"Old man?!"

The militiamen were stunned. Then the officer reacted immediately. There are their sentry posts nearby, and I don't dare to say anything else, it is impossible for a large-scale Meng Yuan soldier to easily touch the front of the camp gate.

But if it's an old man, groping up and not being discovered, it's also possible.

"Put down your bow and arrows." An officer greeted the militia and then said loudly: "Old man. You come out, we don't let go of arrows. ”

"Yes." The old man in black answered, and walked out from behind the tree with some fear.

When the officer saw this scene, he was relieved. "Old man." This is the residence of Wu Gong, the general of the Fu Han Dynasty. Now General Wu is at war with the Mengyuan people, which is very dangerous. How did you get here? I'll send you down." lest the sentry posts on the road shoot you to death. ”

"I know this is General Wu's barracks. Something to report. Seeing that they had a good attitude, the old man couldn't help but let go a little, and said loudly with his fists clenched.

"Something to report? Any information? You can tell me. The officer was stunned for a moment and immediately asked. He's serious.

Many of the intelligence networks here in Wu Nian are from mountain people.

This old man is certainly not a spy.

But it is also possible to obtain information by accident.

"Can't say. This news is important, I can only tell General Wu. The old man said very seriously.

The officer frowned slightly, thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay." You come here, I'll put down the hanging basket and let you come up. ”

The door cannot be opened.

"Yes." The old man walked up with a smile on his face. Soon after, the old man sat on the hanging basket and staggered to the camp gate, and the officer led him into the barracks, and finally a personal soldier of Wu Nian led the old man into the tent.

"Old man. I am Wu Nian. What information do you have? Let's put it bluntly. If it is true, I will not do you any wrong. Wu Nian put on a blue robe and sat on a small bench. My hair was also scratched, and I looked like a general, not a bandit.

"I didn't think about the reward. General Wu raised troops to fight against the Mengyuan people, and I admired them. The old man saw that Wu Nian was also so kind and pleasant, and he became even more bold. He first hugged his fists and said, and then said: "Old man, my name is Chen Shantu, and my family lives in Chenjia Village. Yesterday, I went to collect medicine near Hulu Valley, and in a remote place, I saw a group of Meng Yuan soldiers. I don't dare to look at it, but I guess there are quite a few of them. ”

"I don't know if it's useful, but I think it wouldn't hurt if it didn't. So come to General Wu. ”

"Gourd Valley ?!!!!" Wu Nian's eyes flashed, and his face became extremely serious.

According to the report from the spies, there are some gaps in the enclosure of 40,000 households. Hulu Valley is one of them. I chose to break out from the direction of Hulu Valley tomorrow.

This old man suddenly appeared in front of me.

Is this news true? Or is it fake?

If it's fake. It must have been a smokescreen bomb that Meng Yuan Wanhu put on me, making me choose to break through from other directions.

If it's true.

Then it was Meng Yuan Wanhu who set a trap in the direction of Hulu Valley and ambushed me.

Wanted to eat me.

Both of these are possible.

What am I going to do?

For a while, Wu Nian hesitated. There is no way, fight against the four Mengyuan Wanhu, and seduce them to concentrate their forces.

This is originally a tightrope walk, and it is also a tightrope walking in a strong wind, and if you are not careful, you will have to fall to death.

Wu Nian made this decision with the courage of his blood, but the pressure was still very great. Now it's at the crossroads again.

If his judgment was wrong, then the twenty or thirty thousand people on the mountain, the two thousand elite soldiers, and the four thousand militia would be killed by the Mengyuan people, and the blood would flow like a river, and the corpses would be all over the field.

Be a general.

If you make a slight mistake, you will be defeated and die.

Looking at Wu Nian's groaning appearance, the old man was also a little frightened, grunted, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and bent down cautiously.

Wu Nian's eyes flickered, and he suddenly said, "Old man." I have something to ask you. If there is something offended, please don't be surprised. ”

As he spoke, Wu Nian asked, "Old man." When did your parents die? How old was you when you died? ”

The old man was surprised, and then said without thinking: "Return to the general." My father had been dead for twenty-five years, and he was sixty-two years old when he died. ”

"My mother has been dead for eighteen years. He was sixty-five years old when he died. ”

"They all lived to be more than sixty years old, which is considered a long life." Wu Nian nodded and said.

"yes. It's joy and mourning. The old man smiled a little and nodded.

"You remember. Did your parents like to eat? Wu Nian asked again.

"My father doesn't seem to have anything special to eat, so he just takes a sip of old wine. My mother loved to eat ribs, but she suffered all her life. I haven't eaten a few bites either. The old man replied without thinking. It seemed to be caught in a memory, and his face showed sadness.

He was still a little confused, why would the general ask me this?

What does it have to do with fighting?
