Under the Xiongguan,

Yang Dong's calm gaze swept over the soldiers of the brave army present.

His gaze was very calm, but the soldiers who raised concerns just now lowered their heads one by one.

After Yang Dong glanced around, he slowly withdrew his gaze. At the same time, a contemptuous smile appeared on his face.

"Do you think that these rebels are outnumbered, and we are a little outnumbered?"

As soon as these words came out, many soldiers lowered their heads one after another. But after a brief silence, there was a cry of doubt in the crowd.

"Yang Gong, is there anything wrong with this? The brothers are not iron-clad, and in the face of an enemy ten times their size, they have done their best to hold on until now! ”

"Yes, but those rebels have made it clear that they want to level the Xiongguan. I'm not afraid of death, but I still have an old lady at home, if I ......"

"Okay, brothers, be quiet first, and listen to my father!"

"Those rebels are really difficult to deal with. But Bengong doesn't think that our brave army is not their opponent! ”

"On the contrary, in the heart of this duke, the brave army should be able to easily annihilate these rebel armies!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was stunned.

Among these soldiers, even the most optimistic people didn't dare to think about what Yang Dong said.

They even felt that if the brave army could stop the rebels' large-scale attack, it would already be a great success.

Yang Dong felt the suspicious gazes of the soldiers, but he smiled lightly.

"Why, you don't believe me?"

"Why don't we take a gamble?"

As soon as they heard that they were going to gamble, the soldiers present immediately became interested.

Many bold people even asked:

"Yang Gong, what are you going to bet with us?"

"Also, what are you going to do?"

Yang Dong smiled faintly, and suddenly a confident light appeared on his face.

"Just bet...... Within three days, Bengong let the rebels retreat without spending a single soldier! ”

"As for the color head...... How about 10,000 altars of immortals drunk, plus 100,000 taels of silver? ”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers present were stunned one by one!

They never imagined that Yang Dong would be so generous!

Many soldiers couldn't help but rub their eyes, they even suspected that they were dreaming!

"Yang Gong, you ...... Are you serious? ”

"Caitou is really drunk with 10,000 altars of immortals, and 100,000 taels of silver?"

"My father has always been a spittle and a nail, can I still lie to you about this?"

Yang Dong smiled indifferently, and then said,

"However, my father also has a requirement, that is, within three days, everyone must devote 200% of their energy to conscientiously fulfill every order of our father."

Regarding Yang Dong's request, no one among the soldiers raised any objections.

After all, these things are their business.

Far from being mean, Yang Dong's demands were too lenient.

"Okay, my father still has some things, I want to talk to you Commander Ma, let's disperse."

Yang Dong said, stepping out.

The next moment, his whole body jumped up, like an eagle soaring with wings, and landed steadily on the city wall.

And it was this trick that shocked these soldiers who saw it with their own eyes.

On weekdays, they hardly have access to warriors.

Even if they do, most of them are stronger than them and have stronger staying power.

However, Yang Dong's leap to the top without any drag once again aroused the discussion among the soldiers.

In this regard, Yang Dong didn't care, but walked to the side with a shocked face and a stunned horse commander.

It's just that whether it is Yang Dong or Commander Ma, they didn't expect that Yang Dong's wave of operations outside the pass today would have much impact on the entire Yongwu Army.

The so-called lie itself is actually easy to debunk, but if it is mixed into the truth in the lie, then it is a different matter.

So between the true and the false, Yang Dong was even rumored to be a mortal figure from the gods.

Of course, in a strict sense, it doesn't matter whether it is a god or not, but he did "go down" to come to the Great Zhou.

Inside the Majestic Pavilion,

After a brief sigh of relief, Commander Ma once again put the recent battle situation in front of Yang Dong.

At this moment, he has an indescribable sense of relief.

Yang Dong, on the other hand, held the battle report in his hand and looked at it carefully.

About half an hour later, Yang Dong put down the battle report in his hand.

"Commander Ma, it's been really hard these days."

"It's not hard, it's not hard!"

Commander Ma waved his hand, although there was still a strong sense of exhaustion in his eyes, but on the surface, it was still difficult to hide his excitement.

"Yang Gong, it's great that you can come back! Otherwise, the subordinates really won't be able to hold on. ”

Yang Dong patted the horse commander on the shoulder heavily, and said:

"Ben Gong knows what you're worried about. Don't worry, my father's return this time is to let these rebellious ministers and thieves know that if my father can defeat them once, he can defeat them a second time! ”

When Commander Ma heard this, his tired eyes flashed with excitement.

He knew that Yang Dong had never been a man of his own words.

Since he spoke, it meant 100 percent certainty.

"Yang Gong, what are we going to do next?"

Yang Dong pondered for a moment, in fact, on the way back, he already had some ideas about the current situation.

But the battlefield is changing rapidly, and Yang Dong can't figure out the specific situation of Xiongguan at the moment, what it is.

This is also why, after he came to the Xiongge, the first thing he did was to look through the battle reports of the past few days.

Thankfully, everything was as he thought it would be.

I'm afraid the grain and grass on the rebel side won't last long.

The big war is about to break out.

Thinking of this, Yang Dong opened his mouth and gave an order.

"We have enough artillery now, and we can at least handle a big battle."

"Now go and arrange for people to tie these cannons together with hemp rope, horizontally and vertically, a total of 12 in a group."

After saying this, he pointed to the map in front of him and continued:

"Xiongguan is only a hundred zhang away from the Sang River. Arrange a thousand people, and now go to the San River to dig a canal. The ditch must be dug within two days. ”

As soon as these words came out, Commander Ma frowned slightly.

He looked at Yang Dong, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke:

"Yang Gong is going to flood the Seventh Army?"

"But...... Isn't there enough time? On both sides of the San River, most of them are hard rocks. With the tools we have, it is not easy to open up a canal. ”

"That's why you have to use cannons."

Yang Dong smiled faintly and said:

"You go to the capital immediately to send a letter now, and be sure to let the two knights of Zhuqing and Zhuyu rush to Xiongguan as soon as possible!"
