Chapter 557: Heroic Twilight, a ridiculous plan from a thousand years ago
The master of the Vajra Sect fell to the ground.
There are eight people in total, arranged according to the name of "Brave and Enterprising, Dragon Elephant Prajna", they are the latest protectors of the Vajra Sect, and they are proficient in the Eight Directions Annihilation Array.
Even if Shen Lian faced the combined attack of these people, he had to quickly kill one person and break the combined attack formation, otherwise they would definitely have to work hard to unite.
But now they are all down to the ground.
Not only them, but also three well-trained combat teams, each group of seven people, twenty-one people lay down neatly, forever unable to breathe.
Some of them had throwing knives stuck in their throats, some had their throats cut by swords, and some were shot with crossbow arrows.
Li Xunhuan was calm and relaxed, quietly looking at the battlefield in the distance, Zhong Yuan and Lu Jianxing were guarding beside him, Jinyi Wei was holding crossbow arrows, neatly arrayed, and at the outermost point, Jin Bingyun and Qin Mengyao were holding swords in their hands.
I have to say that the adaptability of the two is absolutely extraordinary, and they have just experienced the battlefield, they have already adapted to the bloody atmosphere, and they can even fight with the enemy.
It's definitely not an easy thing to do.
Even a reckless man like Lu Jianxing was scared to the point of sore legs and nausea for several days when he first experienced the battlefield.
Of course, the two of them have an element of tricks.
Jin Bingyun and Shen Lian had a heart, and opened their hearts to accept the resonance from Shen Lian, Shen Lian's fighting intent, Shen Lian's killing intention, and perfect feedback to Jin Bingyun.
Qin Mengyao's sword heart is clear, not stained with dust, and his heart is completely immersed in the Flying Wing Sword, not with people to control the sword, but with the sword to control people, with the heart of the sword to drive people's hearts.
To put it bluntly, the two of them treat themselves as the container of the sword, as two sword frames, and let the sword control them, rather than control the sword.
Of course, it is very dangerous to do this, especially the magic sword in Jin Bingyun's hand, it is easy to go mad.
Jin Bingyun is gambling.
Bet on the speed at which Shen Lian kills enemies.
If Shen Lian kills the enemy fast enough, she will be able to get out of the state in time, and if she fights, her strength will be seriously depleted, and she will eventually faint from exhaustion.
When you pass out, you naturally get out of it.
Even if he was between the demon and Qingming, Li Xunhuan could throw out the flying knife in time and knock the magic sword away.
It's just that the latter two kinds of losses are relatively large, and they need to recuperate for ten days and a half months, and the best choice is for Shen Lian to quickly kill the strong enemy, and she will get out of the state as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Shen Lian killed the enemy quickly.
As strong as King Vajra, Shen Lian can also grasp his flaws that disappear in a flash, carry out violent blows, and when King Vajra reacts, there is no way to escape except for fighting with Shen Lian for life and death.
King Kong died, Shen Lian ran the Heavenly Silkworm Gong to recover his body damage, and the killing intent quickly dissipated.
Jin Bingyun returned to her normal state, and the Ling Shuang Sword changed from a magic sword to a heart sword, releasing soft vitality, nourishing Jin Bingyun's meridians, and blessing her state.
Although it was still very uncomfortable, and there was a feeling of discomfort for the first time on the battlefield, I could barely hold on.
Li Xunhuan's task is not only to guard the grain and grass, but also to command the Huotou army to cook, and the tired soldiers return to eat, and replace them with a new force with full physical strength.
The battle began at three o'clock in the morning, with soldiers attacking in a cycle, and artillery and crossbows without stopping.
It was also completely crazy at first, constantly urging the Wara army to attack, without the slightest intention of stopping, and the Ming border army, which was well fed and clothed, was even more imposing.
The military formations of the two sides are like millstones, grinding wildly on this land, crushing lives one by one.
The sound of war drums, shouts of killing, screams.
Gold and iron, gunpowder, blood.
All the voices, all the qi machines, converged into a tragic and heroic picture, bleeding and drifting, blood flowing like a river, many words in books, at this moment became a reality, life became extremely fragile.
Qin Mengyao faltered.
She now finally understands how heavy the words "the common people in the world" are, and why Shen Lian said that Yan Jing'an is the greatest successor of Cihang Jingzhai.
Those who have never experienced war will never understand the value of peace, and they will not know how fragile life is in war, and no one can guarantee safety.
The kings who are high, the fierce generals who charge into battle, the wise men who strategize, and the virtuous men who are both civil and military are all struggling in the artillery fire of war.
This battle must be fought.
It is also necessary to stabilize the majesty with victory.
Zhu Biao needs to exchange victory for peace and stability in the northwest border of the Ming Dynasty for dozens of years, and this victory will benefit hundreds of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty and the blessings will last for future generations.
The war lasted from the hour to the afternoon, with a little rest, and then from the noon to the time of the Shen, until two o'clock in the unitary hour, the two sides did not withdraw their troops and continue the fierce battle tomorrow.
Although it is necessary to fight a quick battle first, and it cannot be delayed or defeated, the war of hundreds of thousands of people cannot be won or defeated in just three or four days.
The two sides had to compete at multiple levels, such as soldiers, ordnance, grain and grass, medicinal materials, and intelligence.
There is only one tactic formulated by Shi Yanwen.
- Steady!
I am not afraid of material loss, I am not afraid of delaying time, and I am not worried about long nights and dreams, there is the entire Western Regions to provide food and grass for the Ming army, even if it is two years old, it can hold on.
This is also thanks to Ying Shuntian's gift package, the gold in the Chess King City, which is more than enough for three years.
Zhu Biao can cope with all the pressure of the court.
The Western Regions can provide the supplies needed by the army.
The Demon Sword Remnants gave them extremely generous military salaries.
With so many favorable conditions, Shi Yanwen will never allow any adventures, even if Meng Yuan Khan appears in the rear of the military formation, he must steadily advance to the past.
Attacking head-on, attrition to each other, hurting people.
This is the most inexplicable tactic in the world.
Even if the first military advisor is Sun Wuzi, there is nothing he can do about it, because Da Ming will not be tricked.
Let your bells and whistles set up a killing game, and the powerful fist will blast past, and you must defend yourself.
The hair that was also worried about it before was gray.
The Ming Dynasty has too much advantage in terms of materials, and the equipment of the soldiers is far stronger than that of Warat, no matter how brave and fearless the Warat soldiers are, they are also difficult to resist the bombardment of crossbow arrows and artillery.
Only one day after the start of the war, not only did he lose a huge number of martial arts masters, but the soldiers also suffered extremely heavy damage.
If it weren't for the hard work in Warat first, and the prestige in the hearts of the soldiers was extremely high, at most three days, there would definitely be a serious mutiny under the instigation of the Jinyi Guard.
"Alas!"
He also let out a long sigh first, quickly stabilized his emotions, and went to appease the soldiers in person, and then gathered all the generals to arrange tomorrow's plan.
Pin your head to your belt, exchange the lives of the whole family for power, and you will never admit defeat first!
……
"Poof!"
Shen Lian spat out a mouthful of blood.
In the fierce battle with Wan Yanduel, Shen Lian's damage was not serious, and it did not even affect his own combat strength.
In the battle with King Kong, Shen Lian was forcibly blasted through King Kong's transformation, and when his body was injured, he fought desperately with King King Kong and was punched three or four times by him.
Although there is a silkworm skill to protect the body, the viscera is still injured by the fist, and most of the eight veins of the Qi Jing are broken.
"Husband, how are you?"
Jin Bingyun looked at Shen Lian with adoration.
Just today, Shen Lian first brazenly killed the martial god of the Jin Kingdom Protector, and then defeated the world's number one refining master, King Kong, who was a god of martial arts and unpredictable.
Stepping on the two masters who have been famous for decades, Shen Lian was three or four steps forward from the pinnacle of martial arts.
The prestige in the army has increased rapidly.
The prestige of Hu Weihou has long been spread throughout the military camp.
Once Shen Lian led the soldiers to charge, the soldiers may not be convinced, but now they raise their arms and shout, leading the soldiers to charge into battle with light horses, and the soldiers will inevitably swear to serve their lives.
Shen Lian stretched his waist: "In a short period of time, I can't use my true qi, but I can mobilize my qi and blood, I am now a pure refining body, pure and incomparable." ”
Jin Bingyun let out a long sigh: "How long will this battle last?" Is one month enough? ”
Shen Lian said categorically: "If you also get Meng Yuan's full support first, you can definitely do it, but Yan Timur can't fully support him, Meng Yuan needs to maintain balance internally, otherwise there will be tragic consequences." ”
"How tragic?"
"Ten times more ruthless than the first one!"
Yan Timur leaned towards the government and the opposition, arrogant and domineering, and made countless enemies, when he gained power, those people were afraid of his power and did not dare to show his disobedience.
If Yan Timur sent all the forces under his command to support Yexian, the princes and nobles of Mengyuan would definitely not mind borrowing a knife to kill people, borrowing the knife of the Ming Dynasty to eliminate the elite of Yan Timur, and then cut him with a thousand knives.
How Yan Timur dealt with Li Chimei, how the nobles of Mengyuan would deal with him, a tooth for a tooth, and a hundred times revenge with the most cruel means.
Everyone understands this truth.
Therefore, the assistance given by Yan Timur was mostly materials and martial arts masters, not Mengyuan Iron Cavalry.
Even if you send iron horsemen to help, you must maintain the balance between the two sides, and you can't just send your own henchmen.
Will Meng Yuan send iron cavalry to help?
They are still waiting.
Last year's war in Liao made people see the strength of the Ming soldiers, and in the 20 years of peace, the combat power of the Ming soldiers has not decreased, but has become stronger.
How much will you lose by fighting again this year?
There is the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty here!
I don't know how many letters for help were sent, emphasizing that Wara Mengyuan supported each other, and these letters were all mud cows entering the sea, which were refuted by Mengyuan's high-level leaders.
Their reasons are plausible.
Han Chinese and steppe aliens are different.
The grassland aliens like pastures with abundant water and grass, and they don't pay much attention to the land, so they will leave after grabbing a wave.
The Han people have an unforgettable, deep-rooted attachment to the land, and if the Ming Dynasty occupies Wara, they will definitely build the Great Wall and govern the local people.
How much does it cost to build the Great Wall?
How to suppress the rebellion of the people of Warat?
How much time and effort does it take to manage Warat?
Can the treasury of the Ming Dynasty support it?
Even if everything goes smoothly and there are no waves, it will take at least ten or twenty years, and by then, how many materials will there be in the Ming treasury? Is it paid for the army?
This is a good opportunity for Meng Yuan to develop with peace of mind, and when Wara drags Daming to be weak, Meng Yuan Tieqi takes advantage of the weakness to get the fruits of Daming's hard work for 20 years and the cultivation of astronomical materials!
Although these words are full of words such as if, if, and maybe, six or seven times out of ten are nonsense, but they are stunned to frighten the civil and military ministers and refuse to assist Warat.
Maybe he was really bluffed.
Maybe it was because he was scared last year and didn't want to consume the warriors of his own tribe, so he pretended to be confused.
So, I also looked forward to it for a long time, but all I was waiting for was ordnance and armor, grain, grass and horses, and the iron cavalry that Yan Timur promised to help, but it was less than one percent.
Meng Yuan's court debates were completely placed on Zhu Biao's desk, which was the information that Jin Yiwei had worked hard to collect, and it cost more than 300,000 taels.
Zhu Biao rubbed his head tiredly and looked at Shi Yanwen on the side: "Sir, is there anything missing from this information?" Isn't this Zheng Guoqu? ”
Shi Yanwen said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince, more than 20 years have passed, and the Mengyuan Iron Cavalry, who dared to fight back then, has long since become weak, and although Zheng Guoqu's plan is stupid, it can barely be regarded as an excuse to evade conscription. ”
"What does Wang Baobao suggest about this?"
"He was sick in bed, the oil ran out, and he was already dying, and he was unable to participate in the affairs of the court."
"Will there be a fake? Will Wang Baobao repair the plank road in the dark and arrange other killing games. ”
Shi Yanwen said confidently: "What if Wang Baobao comes? Let's fight steadily, relying on the advantage of ordnance, and Wang Baobao, Meng Yuan's accumulation over the years, I don't know how long it can be consumed. ”
Zhu Biao nodded, skipping the topic.
What if Wang Baobao is here?
No matter how many tricks he has, in the face of absolute strength, he can only use tactics, strategies that can shake the morale of the army, in addition to burning grain, is to cut off the back road of the army, that is, the plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao.
Thinking of this, Zhu Biao raised his head suddenly.
"Sir, what if Wang Baobao didn't come here, but copied our back road, or surrounded Wei to save Zhao?"
"Then let's take his back road in turn, Tian Saibiao, the general under the command of the fourth prince, is stationed in Western Xia, responsible for watching Meng Yuan's iron cavalry, and can attack at any time."
Tian Saibiao is brave and good at fighting, extremely brave, good at using spears, and has fought with Chang Mao for 200 rounds without winning or losing, Chang Mao released an invincible turtle back five-clawed golden dragon grasp, which was also blocked by Tian Saibiao's electric light hammer.
When it comes to the ability to charge on the battlefield, Tian Saibiao is on par with Chang Mao, but he doesn't have so many eyes.
Is Wang Baobao really here?
I don't know!
No one knows if he's here or not.
Shi Yanwen assumed that Wang Baobao was coming, analyzed the choices he might make, and made a plan in advance.
The situation is different now than it was back then.
At that time, Xu Da drove straight in, like a bamboo, all the way to the Mengyuan royal court, arousing the heart of resistance, Wang Baobao raised his arms and shouted, and the Mengyuan warriors enthusiastically participated in the battle.
Now that it is the war between the Ming Dynasty and Warat, why did Meng Yuan participate? The truth of cold lips and teeth can be told to those who read, does Meng Yuanshi understand this?
Why do you want to fight for Warat?
What benefits can be gained after the bloody battle?
If the soldiers were not convinced, no matter how many tricks Wang Baobao had, it would only lead to defeat in the end.
Shi Yanwen quickly analyzed the intelligence, analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of both sides, and gave many reference suggestions.
……
Meng Yuan.
Wang Baobao looked at the letter in his hand, sighed helplessly, and showed a tired look on his face.
He's so tired!
After more than 20 years of hard work, his body was almost exhausted, and the internal situation of Meng Yuan was like a powder keg, with a slight shock, and it immediately exploded.
What else can he do but balance?
Heroic twilight.
He couldn't pull the hard bow at the head of the bed anymore! (End of chapter)
