The strength of a practitioner is proportional to the time spent in practice most of the time.

Absorb the aura of heaven and earth into the body and turn into the true element, the true element exists between the meridians, accompanied by its own qi and blood nourishment**, and turns into more indescribable wonderful magical powers, which are all things that are worn by water drops over time.

If a practitioner is too young, it is easy to feel that he is not strong enough and not reliable enough.

Originally, in the eyes of this Nanping County Zhenwu Army, these cultivators of the Tie Ce Army seemed to be too young, and they naturally had many doubts in their hearts, but after seeing the battle between Lin Yi, Qi Zhuji, and Li Moxiao, this doubt was replaced by awe.

Even the young people who didn't make a move, such as Rong Yi, Xiao Suxin, Bai Yuelu and others, the composure and calmness shown by these people in the face of the enemy attack also let them know that these young cultivators were very different from the fledgling students they had seen before.

Listening to the military orders passed by the Tie Ce Army, watching the Tie Ce Army start to rest in an orderly manner, these Zhenwu troops looked at the looming fire and the Northern Wei cavalry in the distance, and gradually became calm from nervousness, and the vast majority of people began to fall asleep with the attack of fatigue.

At the deepest hour of the night, these Northern Wei cavalry soldiers patrolling in the distance on the outskirts of the camp also gradually dispersed, and the night was uneventful.

In the morning light, looking at the two young girls returning from the wilderness on the outskirts of the camp, the eyes of these sergeants welled up with more respect.

These people didn't even know the names of Bai Yuelu and Xiao Suxin, but they knew that these two girls were also cultivators.

In the rest of the army, cultivators are often like the most valuable weapons, they are the key objects of protection, even in battle, they are surrounded by guards, and they do not easily charge into battle, but from last night to this morning, they have already felt that the style of this iron army under Lin Yi's command is completely different from the rest of the army.

It seems that in this iron army, cultivators have to do more things, but they are the shields of ordinary soldiers.

"General. ”

The lieutenant general of the heavy cavalry army came to Fang Taihuai's side, he snorted lightly, but did not salute, but looked at the Tie Ce army and those Zhenwu troops with a worried expression. The incompatibility and estrangement between Tie Cejun and these Zhenwu troops and them can be seen naturally without being very delicate.

Fang Taihuai didn't look at Lin Yi and the others, he looked up at the distance on the road, as if he was looking at the sky, but in a very low voice, he said, "Do you think they are enough to deal with the White Bone Army?" Even if it's not Xiao Donghuang. ”

The lieutenant was silent.

Fang Taihuai calmed down, took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and said, "What do we want most?"

The adjutant raised his head and said, "Alive." ”

"That's it. Fang Taihuai laughed, his smile a little bleak, "No matter what time it is, you need to keep this in mind. The cultivators who joined the army with us back then, who were better than us, are all dead. Worshipping the king, just like the stars in the sky, seems to give you hope in the dark night, but it is forever unattainable. The sweetest piece of honey is always reserved for the most powerful. Fights that can be fought will be fought, and wars that will kill many people will not be fought. Emperors can change at any time, who do we work for?"

......

After a very simple meal, the convoy moved on.

Although the road is still a little muddy, fortunately it did not rain, and the temperature after the rain is not high, and the breeze blows on the body.

"General Lin. ”

After walking for only a few miles, Liao Yue, the general of the light cavalry led by him, hurriedly drove his horse to the side of Lin Yi's carriage and snorted lightly.

In fact, before he arrived, Lin Yi had already seen dozens of Northern Wei cavalry soldiers appear in the wilderness on the front side of the road.

These Northern Wei cavalry were very bold, even in the daytime, they recklessly stared at the convoy they were in, and did not attack, but when they were recently, they were only a few arrows away from the train, and with Lin Yi's eyesight, they could even see the faces of these Northern Wei cavalry clearly.

These Northern Wei cavalry gathered and scattered, and sometimes disappeared from their sight by the cover of the terrain, but at most, they would appear again after tea time.

Until night, when they began to camp again, these Northern Wei cavalry still appeared in the surrounding darkness.

Although with the lesson of last night, these Northern Wei cavalry soldiers did not seem to want to attack at all, but for normal sergeants, it always made people feel nervous and depressed.

"Don't waste your strength on your defenses, just rest. ”

Looking at the bonfires lit by the Northern Wei cavalry in the distance, Lin Yi sat down next to a bonfire lit by the carriage, motioned to a Tiece army sergeant to give him some hot water, and then said a word to Xue Jiu, who was about to arrange the deployment.

Xue Jiu was stunned, in his opinion, although the campsite next to the road chosen by the heavy cavalry army was very conducive to the heavy cavalry sprint, the terrain was too flat, and if the enemy attacked the camp at night, it would also be very dangerous.

But his gaze was opposite to Lin Yi's firm and calm gaze, and he understood that Lin Yi must have a purpose when he said this, so he didn't ask much, nodded his head, and confessed.

"I took a rough look at the faces of these people, and there were no more than three hundred different faces today... In terms of troops, they have no advantage over us. ”

Lin Yi took the hot water and began to eat the marching rations, he said this very casually, then turned his head to look at Bai Yuelu, who was sitting beside him, and said softly but seriously: "You seem to be too silent, at this time I think you should give me some advice." ”

Bai Yuelu raised her head calmly.

Because of her own reasons, compared with before, she was of course too silent and a little abnormal during this journey, but listening to Lin Yi's words, her mood did not fluctuate too much, because long before she set off, she had already decided not to help each other, but she would regard herself as a member of the ordinary Tiece Army.

"No new military information has been delivered to us. ”

She looked at Lin Yi and said, "No matter what more strategic purposes are behind these White Bone Army, but if we always follow like this, it is impossible for the military's new military information to be transmitted to us." Even if there is a herald along the way, they will kill them. ”

Lin Yi frowned slightly, and said, "They follow without fear, I'm afraid that most of the White Bone Army has already completed the cutting of the fortress on our side." ”

"There's no point in thinking too far. ”

Bai Yuelu quietly looked at the fire in the distance and said, "If you let Xue Jiu not be armed, you should also want to take the initiative to kill some enemy soldiers." ”

"I don't really like to sit still. ”

Lin Yi nodded and said, "These Northern Wei cavalry are riding the best war horses, even if the rider on them dies, this kind of war horse should also find the previous camp or their kind." ”

The corners of Qi Zhuji's mouth curled slightly, as if he was smiling, "You want to capture some of the opponent's horses, and then try to find out the camp of these cavalrymen?"

Bai Yuelu looked at Qi Zhuji's expression and knew that he had the same idea.

For herself, if she were to take charge of the army, this should also be the best choice.

"It works according to this principle. She nodded and glanced at Lin Yi, "Since you have already thought about it in your heart, why do you still want to ask me?"

"Any time a person makes a decision, it is possible that it is not well thought out, or because of an overlooked link, it actually contains the possibility of failure. Lin Yi looked at her and Qi Zhuji and said, "But if several people think so, they shouldn't be wrong." ”

"A short sprint, approaching these people, but these heavily ridden horses are the best, so that these horses are unarmoured. Bai Yuelu looked at Qi Zhuji and smiled faintly, "Now it depends on whether you have a big face, can you ask them to borrow some horses." ”

"How many horses?" Qi Zhuji asked unusually dryly.

Bai Yuelu didn't answer, just looked at Lin Yi.

"The three of us, plus Rong Yi, Xiao Suxin, and Li Moxiao. And let Situ Nian go too, there is no need for them to fight, but let them control the opponent's war horse as much as possible. Lin Yi thought about it, but he was a little hesitant, this adds up to a total of thirteen war horses, which is not a lot, and I don't know if the other party will be willing.

"The seven newcomers?" Qi Zhuji didn't have much confidence in the seven young cultivators who took the initiative to join the Tie Ce Army, and frowned, "Are you sure you won't mess up?"

"How long have you been away from Nantian Courtyard, you are so old-fashioned. Lin Yi couldn't help laughing, but immediately said: "Fighting is such a thing, after a few times, you will become sophisticated, and this kind of battle formation now should be nothing compared to the future battle formation, it is just an opportunity." ”

"It's up to you. ”

Qi Zhuji rarely didn't quarrel with Lin Yi, put down a dry and hard scone in his hand, patted the ice chips on his hand and walked towards the heavy cavalry.

Lin Yi watched him and Fang Taihuai only talk a few words, and then some heavy cavalry sergeants got busy and began to unarmor some war horses.

"What did you say to them, so simple?"

Looking at Qi Zhuji, who could get enough war horses so easily, Lin Yi felt a little incredible.

"I just told them to spy on the enemy, and to borrow their horses to come and go quickly, and the danger is less. Qi Zhuji looked at Lin Yi expressionlessly and lowered his voice, "If you tell them to go on a surprise attack, I'm afraid they won't be willing." ”

Lin Yi was a little stunned, "Qi Fox, you are more informal than me." ”

"Very good. ”

Qi Zhuji said indifferently.

Lin Yi was stunned again, "What do you mean?"

"I just thought that a strong and trustworthy army needs a bright and well-spoken general like you. Qi Zhuji looked at the heavy cavalry sergeants who were busy unloading their armor and said, "But in an army, there also needs to be that kind of sinister and ruthless characters who make people feel cunning and changeable, one with a red face and the other with a white face, which is good." ”

"That means I'm Lin Hongmian, and you're Qi Baimian. Lin Yi couldn't help laughing, "But your face is indeed whiter than mine." ”

Qi Zhuji didn't bother to pay attention to Lin Yi's joke, but raised her eyebrows in displeasure.

Bai Yuelu looked at the two young people from the Southern Dynasty on the side, but she was infinitely emotional.

Sometimes, geniuses are very different from ordinary people.

Looking at the speed at which these two people are growing, and looking at the demeanor of these two people at this time, who would have thought that in the spring of this year, they would still look immature in Nantian Courtyard?

.......

Although it was not raining, there were still dark clouds drifting across the sky, obscuring the waning moon.

There are more than ten cavalry soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty who are still riding horses and whistling, looking at them shouting and waving the reins, as if they will never get tired, just like this kind of riding horses and shouting is their favorite thing to do.

More Northern Wei cavalry gathered around the fire to roast some meat. From time to time, someone picked up a large piece of barbecue with a knife and threw it far away at these riding riders.

The aroma of barbecue flew through the night, causing a burst of cheers.

However, all of a sudden, all of these Northern Wei cavalry troops were on alert.

From the direction of the camp in the south, the sharp sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded.

"What do you mean?"

All the sitting sergeants had already mounted their horses in a breath, but looking at the dozen or so riding shadows that had just rushed out of the camp, they were a little puzzled in their hearts, thinking that in such a night, since they themselves did not want to fight each other, what was the use of the other party rushing like this?

It's just that this kind of incomprehension only lasted for a few breaths, and at the moment when they felt the speed of the other party clearly, several terrible whistling sounded, and all these Northern Wei cavalry turned their horses' heads very simply, and galloped towards the wilderness and night away from the opponent's camp.

"What do they want to do?"

An exclamation of surprise rang out among the heavy cavalry in the camp.

Several generals of the Heavy Cavalry Army, including Fang Taihuai, felt a chill welling up in their hearts.

Lin Yi and the others drove these war horses of theirs to the limit, and chased straight towards the Northern Wei cavalry who were fleeing into the night like arrows from the string, this posture was obviously not a spying on the enemy, or trying to expel the other party a little farther.

"What do they want to do?"

The lieutenant general of the heavy cavalry turned around, his face was extremely pale, and shouted at Xue Jiuli, who was standing at the front of a carriage and looking up.

Xue Jiu froze, then shook his head with an innocent expression, "The last general doesn't know." ”

"You!"

The lieutenant general of the heavy cavalry held a breath in his chest, and there was a faint pain in his chest.

Among the thirteen galloping war horses, it was not Lin Yichong who was at the forefront, but Li Moxiao who was at the forefront.

Even if it is horseback riding, he is slightly stronger than Lin Yi and others.

In the dark night, his eyes twinkled like stars.

Looking at the enemy army that was gradually approaching, his hands were free from the reins, and he only relied on the force exerted by his legs, still controlling the speed of the war horse under him and his own stability.

He raised the horned bow, drew an arrow from the quiver at his waist, and with the jolt of his body, he drew the bow and shot the arrow.

A terrible arrow rang out suddenly.

A blood flower suddenly surged up behind the back of a Northern Wei cavalry soldier in front, and then it was planted straight forward like a felled log.

Then came the second arrow.

Similarly, another Northern Wei cavalry soldier surged blood behind him and fell.

However, what everyone in the camp didn't expect was that this arrow was not from the hand of Li Moxiao, but from the hand of Xiao Suxin, a girl who seemed to be the weakest on the horse on Lin Yi's side.
