Pan Jufu did not immediately receive the letter of appointment from His Royal Highness the Prince, but very sincerely defined his ability: "I am just a veteran who has fought a few battles, and I don't know anything about strategizing; I have dealings with officialdom? I have not won the favor of His Highness for so many years, you know how bad I am; I know one thing, I learned it when I was young and watched other people's commands, and I have never practiced it; Charging into battle? I'm old, a little heavier armor can overwhelm me, and if I don't have the help of talismans and Taoist priests along the way, I won't be able to run to Broken Flow City. ”

Xin Youtao was very embarrassed, he really didn't have much confidence in this veteran, this appointment letter was not so much for Pan Jufu as for Mu Xingqiu, so he asked with a smile: "Then what are you best at?"

"I know the demons, especially their soldiers. Pan Jufu has been washed and put on the best light leather armor in Broken Flow City, but he still doesn't look like a general in appearance, and the leather armor made of Mao Qilin's skin is more like stolen goods, "I have been fighting with them for most of my life, I have participated in two battles between the Dao Tong and the Demon Army, and I have met with the Demon Soldiers hundreds of times in the frontier. ”

"That could also be your escape. Xin Youtao couldn't hold back his unhappiness, he hoped that the incoming general would be more confident and more acquainted.

"Well, isn't this exactly what His Highness and the soldiers and civilians of Broken Flow City want to learn the most?"

Xin Youtao was slightly stunned, handed over the appointment letter to Pan Jufu, and laughed: "No, I don't want to run for my life, I want to win the demon soldiers." ”

The two walked out of the main hall of the barracks hand in hand and officially announced that the new general would take office, and he would be in charge of the military power.

No one had seen the skills of this old general, and the soldiers were lukewarm about this appointment, and many people's eyes were still on Mu Xingqiu, this was the general they thought was brave and good at fighting.

Pan Jufu is also not polite. Immediately ordered the soldiers to line up, make a few simple stabbing movements as he asked, and then he began to assign tasks, some rode out of the city as scouts, some guarded the city walls, some patrolled the streets of the city and gathered intelligence, the rest remained in the barracks to train, everyone had to show their skills, and the old general had to reappoint officers.

Pan Jufu arranged each task in great detail, such as how to patrol after leaving the city. How to deal with the demon soldiers after the current demon soldiers, every step is clearly explained, if the soldiers ask questions, he opens his mouth to answer them, without a trace of hesitation.

The defenders of Broken Flow City were originally very reluctant to patrol far away, but after listening to the old general, things are not too terrible now, they don't need to fight with the demon soldiers to find out the approximate number. As soon as he could, he returned to the city, so he was finally willing to ride out of the city.

It wasn't until dusk that Pan Jufu arranged all the tasks for the first day, and his mouth was dry but not tired. No matter how trivial the question, he can give a satisfactory answer to the other party. This is all the experience he has accumulated over the years of fighting, and he has never forgotten it in his heart.

Not only more than 300 soldiers, but even Xin Youtao himself. They were all impressed by the old general, and no one doubted his ability anymore. General Mu can arouse fighting spirit, but General Pan brings confidence and stability. Every soldier now knows what he's going to do.

Xin Youtao had been watching from a distance, turned his head and whispered to Mu Xingqiu: "It turns out that I am really blind, and I haven't seen that Pan Sanye is a strange person for so many years, alas, I am not as good as you, can reading cardiology also improve a person's eyesight?"

Mu Xingqiu smiled, he was happier than anyone else to get Pan Sanye's help, he was finally able to get rid of what he was not good at and concentrate on fighting the demon clan, "Our eyesight is not as good as your sister, she is the one who really shows Pan Sanye's ability." ”

Xin Youtao was slightly confused, "My sister values Pan Sanye so much, why did she arrange him in the Immortal Collection...... I understand. Xin Youtao suddenly realized, and shook his head in shame, "My sister is afraid of arousing the queen's suspicion, and she wants me to learn more from Pan Sanye." ”

Pan Jufu walked over, took the big bowl from a soldier, drank all the water inside, and didn't care about the water droplets flowing out of his beard, he returned the bowl, wiped his mouth, and sighed comfortably, "There are two most important tasks that require the help of His Royal Highness the Prince and the catechumen. ”

"Old general, please say that you are in charge of the military power of Broken Flow City, and we are all under your command. Xin Youtao was respectful, and his previous casual attitude was like two people.

Pan Jufu accepted calmly, "First, there are not enough soldiers, and the three hundred Xuanfu army has no chance of winning against a thousand demon soldiers; second, the Fu Master and the Taoist priest cannot fight alone, and they have to cooperate with the Xuanfu Army." ”

Xin Youtao immediately said: "Leave the recruitment to me, there are many soldiers in the city who have fled from various cities, and I will increase the reward......

"That's not going to work. Pan Jufu shook his head and vetoed, "Relying on bounties to recruit troops, could it be that the Xuanfu Army has become a mercenary army?"

"What should I do in the opinion of the old general?" Xin Youtao's tone became more humble, and he no longer had the slightest suspicion about Pan Sanye.

"This is a war between the life and death of Broken Stream City and Xijie Kingdom, any soldier of the Xuanfu Army is obliged to participate in the war, you are the prince, you should arrest them all, and tell them that they are ready to sacrifice their lives for the country. ”

"Huh?" As the prince of Xijie, Xin Youtao can participate in court struggles without scruples, fighting openly and secretly with people of similar status, but he is not used to forcing low-level people to obey orders, in his mind, it should be a natural thing, "If they ......"

"I didn't say, 'Please' them to go to war, you have to give orders in the name of the prince, and those who disobey will be arrested, and some may have changed into the clothes of the people, and leave them alone, as long as they look like they have been soldiers, ask them to go to war. ”

Xin Youtao looked a little embarrassed, he was not a tough character in the first place, and he was not used to this kind of behavior after being a Taoist priest for a long time.

Pan Jufu's eyes widened, and he said sternly as if facing an ordinary soldier: "Take fifty soldiers, let's go out to find someone, if we can't recruit two hundred people before dawn, we don't have to fight this battle, just break up." ”

"I'll go!" Xin Youtao hurriedly ran away.

Looking at the prince's back, Mu Xingqiu remembered the scene where he forcibly removed the fire god seal for Xin Youtao in the past, and couldn't help but smile.

Pan Jufu changed to a relatively soft tone, "I have to ask first, is Daoist Pangshan just helping His Royal Highness the Prince defend the city, or does it have to be like this, there is no way back?"

"There is no way back. Mu Xingqiu told the truth.

"Well, I think so. The war form shì is so. With the Xuanfu army alone, you will definitely not be able to defeat the demon soldiers, a few groups of demon fire will be smashed down, and the whole army will be scattered; only the words of the Taoist priest of Pangshan will also not be able to win, when you are busy fighting with the big demon, a group of demon soldiers will rush into the city under the protection of demon magic, and kill everyone cleanly. ”

"Daoist Pangshan is willing to cooperate with the Xuanfu Army. ”

"There is a way to cooperate, under normal circumstances, the Xuanfu Army is only responsible for containment, and the main force of the demon soldiers is all handed over to the Taoist priests to solve. Today's situation is different, I didn't see a high Taoist. ”

"There is one, but he will not be able to go to war for a while. ”

Pan Jufu nodded, "Then it's the other way around, the Xuanfu Army is the main attack, and the Taoist priest provides protection, we can die in the hands of the demon soldiers, but we can't be killed by the demon arts." ”

"Good. Mu Xingqiu called all the Taoist priests over to discuss tactics together.

Daliang, Shen Xiuming and others did not have Neidan. They can't fly, and the eleven Taoist priests and the only Fu Master Liu Ding can provide protection to the Xuanfu Army, Zuo Liuying is still repairing the tower, and Lan Qizhang, Zeng Fu, Fangfang and Bald Zi can't participate in the battle.

Among the eleven Taoist priests, Xin Youtao was the prince. It is necessary to stay in the rear and sit in the formation, and at this time more soldiers are being recruited in the city, Mu Xingqiu's five elements spell is general, and he is deeply feared by the soldiers. To stay on the ground and take the lead in the charge, there are nine Taoist priests left, and only Xiao Qingtao is a Taoist priest of the Five Elements Branch. She knew the most about demon slaying tactics, and she blushed and stammered to arrange the location and tasks, and it took a while to smooth out.

One of the duties of the Fu Master was to provide all kinds of protection to the Xuan Fu Army on the battlefield, and he had a good conversation with Pan Jufu, and soon drew up a plan to fill the loopholes that the Pangshan Daoists might have.

After nightfall, Pan Jufu was not idle, the soldiers patrolling the streets of the city brought back a group of refugees and deserters, he asked one by one, did not let go of anyone, did not believe any rumors, went straight to the topic, knocked on the side, confirmed each other and other questioning skills emerged in an endless stream, and he had to ask the only bit of truth in the rumors.

The Taoist priests listened to the side, and the more they listened, the more they admired the old general.

"Taoist priests will use mind control techniques to dig out all your memories and thoughts, but the effect may not be better than this. Yang Qingyin was particularly impressed, "Once the mind control technique is not good and cannot be used, it will be completely dumbfounded." ”

Mu Xingqiu listened most carefully, and vaguely knew that Pan Jufu's methods and the Nian Heart Illusion technique were quite inconsistent.

After asking, Pan Jufu had a more accurate judgment of the attacking demon soldiers, "The demon soldiers are less than a thousand, about seven or eight hundred, and correspondingly there are seven or eight demon leaders, two of which are the most noteworthy, one is the ground commander, everyone doesn't know much about him, but he is riding a mountain cow, if it goes crazy, the city wall can't stop it." There is also a flying demon leader, if the frightened guy is not mistaken, it should be Silver Feather. ”

"Ahh Xiao Qingtao screamed, hurriedly covered her mouth, and now everyone's eyes were looking at her, she removed her palm, and said softly: "Silver Feather is very, very rare half-demons, they are all ...... Adonis. ”

Everyone laughed, Pan Jufu disagreed, "I'm not worried about how beautiful Yinyu is, I'm afraid you can't beat him." ”

"Leave it to me. Yang Qingyin immediately asked for his life, "I don't care if he is beautiful or ugly, it's all the same when he is burned." ”

"For the time being, the news is still not comprehensive enough, and tomorrow I will personally go out of the city to find out the enemy's situation. This group of demon soldiers did not come specifically to attack Broken Flow City, they fought when they encountered the city along the way, and it would take about seven or eight days before they could come here. This is a mistake by the demon soldiers, and it is also an opportunity for Broken Flow City. ”

Pan Jufu looked at the young Taoist priests in front of him, and suddenly remembered those martyrs who died in Lao Zu Peak, he looked up frequently on the way to escape, and had never seen a Taoist priest flying away from Lao Zu Peak in the air, "Do you know why the veterans trust each other and even trust each other with their lives?"

"Because the veterans live together and fight together, they have a brotherly relationship. Shen Hao immediately replied.

Pan Jufu shook his head, "That's not the case at all, our mutual trust has nothing to do with brotherhood." He said that he hoped that his words would have a little effect on these young Taoist priests, "Because we know each other's strength, we will rely on each other and cooperate with each other, in order to survive as much as possible." Dying will make you braver, but you are an army only if you always think about protecting the person around you. ”
