1. Tranquility in the heart of the Devil's Cave

In the camp tent, the fire was dazzling, the golden armor was shining, a group of soldiers were surrounded by the side, and there was a general who looked like a girl looking down at the map, his willow eyebrows were tightly locked, and he was thinking hard. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

After a long time, she sighed: "The enemy sent troops to break into the formation at the risk of death, and I blindly rushed to kill, and the command was improper, which harmed.... The soldier is broken, really.... I'm sorry guys. ”

The bearded veteran said: "General Dong, we won the battle, you blame yourself so much, if you really lose, we will accompany you to wipe your neck?"

Dong Caiqi said gloomily: "If I had been more dexterous and alert, I would have won this battle..."

Before the words fell, as soon as he sat in the corner of the tent, a young man dressed as a Taoist priest asked, "You have been ambushed, if you want to deal with it, how should you assign it?"

Dong Caiqi perked up and said, "Senior brother can get me, I should let the right armor soldier quickly support..."

He said: "How to support? How should the disturbed escape? When the formation is chaotic, how should the rest of the troops behave, and how should the enemy troops in front respond?"

Dong Caiqi scratched his head vigorously, trembling like a student who was questioned by the old master, thought for a long time, and answered them one by one. Pan Xuan nodded and said: "Back then, when I watched the general's training, I kept imagining all kinds of dangers in my mind, and as soon as I got something, I practiced immediately, and took the horn and banner as the order, and ordered it to go out like a mountain, and implement it quickly, so that even if the strategy was improper, the battle array was as solid as a rock and unbreakable." ”

Dong Caiqi said: "Yes, yes!" The order went down: "Early tomorrow morning, the whole army will practice the formation, familiarize yourself with the new order, and all the departments will understand it as soon as possible." The generals received the order, retired one after another, got up, walked past Dong Caiqi, Dong Caiqi hurriedly said: "Senior brother, in a battle the day after tomorrow, what are our chances of winning?"

"If we are upright and attack the city, and the enemy can't hold out, our chances of winning are not good, about eighty percent..."

Dong Caiqi laughed and said: "Eighty percent or so? It's not too big? How many percent are you satisfied with, nine out of nine?"

Pan Xuan said: "It is difficult to attack the city, and then when you go to the city, as soon as the city gate is opened, the morale of the enemy army is broken, the pace is improper, and it cannot be used, then it will be defeated." With me here, why is it so difficult to open the door here?"

Dong Caiqi hesitated for a moment and said, "I always feel so.... Victory is not martial arts, but bullying people with magic and immortal methods. ”

Pan Xuan said: "Soldiers, treacherous ways." Attack the weak with the strong, and do everything you can. We have advantages and strengths, why do we have any scruples? After you enter the city, you will restrain the whole army, do not commit any offenses in the autumn, and convince the people with benevolence and virtue. ”

Dong Cai Qixi said: "Yes, yes, it's just that in the future, if the senior brother is not here, if we want to attack the city again, it will be even more difficult." ”

He said: "Now your army of 40,000 wants to attack the city of 60,000 soldiers and horses, how easy is it? If I am not here, you need to be strong and recuperate, but you can't be so impatient." ”

Dong Caiqi nodded and said, "Caiqi understands." Pan Xuan said no more, lifted the curtain, and instantly disappeared.

Dong Caiqi secretly stuck out his tongue and thought: "I heard that Senior Brother and Master have entered the Broken Cloud Layer together, and now he is the most noble person in my ten thousand immortals. Then he thought again: "A person like him should have cultivated immortals in the door with peace of mind, pure and undisturbed, but he came from thousands of miles to help me, how can I repay this kindness? No, even if he doesn't come to help me, I owe him a lot, alas, it's really.... I can't count them. ”

The place where her army is stationed, called Niu Ben Valley, wants to attack the city, called taming, it is rumored that the ancient emperors, every time they go out hunting, they will come to this city, and they will return after half a year of fun, and it is also counted as half an imperial city, which is the junction of the southwest barbarians and the Central Plains Prefecture, which is extremely important.

In the past six months, Dong Caiqi asked for help in the name of his brother to gather troops, recruit talents, and provide continuous support for a while. After the arrival of Pan Xuan, Dong Caiqi adopted his words and divided the whole army into two, half of which were Jianghu warriors, and the unruly men were handed over to a martial arts senior. The other half is the officers and soldiers of the princes, trained by the famous generals of the imperial court. The two sides are not convinced by each other and often compete, but when it comes to the battlefield, the odd is alternating, and there are often unexpected miraculous effects.

She was ordered by Empress Luo Fanglin to expedition to the southwest to defeat the five rebellious princes, and was one of the three armies. Among these three armies, she has the least number of soldiers and horses, who knows that in a short period of time, on the contrary, she has the most military achievements and the greatest results, and now she has overcome the strong enemy, attacked the city, and has penetrated into the hinterland of the enemy, and at the latest the day after tomorrow, she will storm the enemy's gateway city. Dong Caiqi thought of this, and couldn't help but feel worried in his heart, and secretly thought: "If we can't take this city, we soldiers and horses are afraid that we will be displaced, surrounded and intercepted, and the soldiers will die tragically in a foreign land one by one because of my impatience and greed." ”

She knew that this matter was important, and she had no intention of sleeping, and when she saw that the night was clear, she walked slowly through the barracks, thinking about things as she went.

Suddenly, she noticed someone approaching, her eyes fell on her, her breathing was slightly chaotic, Dong Caiqi turned her face, and saw that the person was tall and tall, wearing a military uniform, but he was a little thin, it was her junior brother Qingzhong.

Qing Zhong's face was shocked, and he said, "Senior sister." ”

Dong Caiqi said: "It's so late, why don't you sleep?"

Qing Zhong suddenly knelt down on one knee and said, "Senior sister, please allow me to go into battle to attack the city the day after tomorrow." ”

Dong Caiqi was taken aback, his palm was empty, Qingzhong had been helped up by her true anger, and she said: "Never, Master entrusted you to me, I should not have led you to fight in the east and west, how can I still allow you to take risks?

Qingzhong hurriedly said: "But senior sister can fight and rush into battle, I, Qingzhong, am a good man, why do I have to shrink in the rear? ”

Dong Caiqi smiled: "How old are you? At such an age, others are still studying hard in the school, and when you are a few years older, you have entered the Wanxian Gate, you have the ability to heal yourself from injuries, and you have the master's permission, I will let you show your skills." ”

Qing Zhong said loudly: "Senior sister, you are a woman, but don't you also gallop on the battlefield? I have a deep hatred of blood, if I can't afford to endure this little hardship, how can I kill the great enemy of ten thousand ghosts in the future?"

Dong Caiqi said patiently: "Wan Xian's kung fu is naturally no obstacle to dealing with one person, but if you put on your battle armor, ride a horse and gallop, and enter and exit in the chaotic army, this is not what Wan Xian is good at." ”

Qing Zhong has always been obsessed with the matter of Pan Xuan and Dong Caiqi, seeing that Dong Caiqi has a lot of respect for Pan Xuan, he is jealous in his heart, if he can't make meritorious service in front of her, he will be praised by her, and he will suffer every moment, even if he dies on the battlefield, it is better to make her shed a few tears, than to do nothing at the moment.

He was anxious and panicked, and he was about to kneel down again, so Dong Caiqi had to say: "That's it, I'll go and ask Senior Brother Pan, if he allows, I won't stop him." ”

Qing Zhong said angrily: "Panyu, Panyu, you know Panyu." That coil everywhere looking for women,... Ultimately, how could you be kept in the dark by him, deceived by him?"

Dong Caiqi's heart sank, remembering that this child was extremely obsessed with himself in the past, and had made rude actions, but he still didn't open his mind. She took a step back, didn't say much, and looked at Qing Zhong coldly, Qing Zhong broke out in a cold sweat, but gritted her teeth and didn't say a word.

When the two of them stood quietly for a while, Dong Caiqi said: "Tomorrow, you put on your military uniform, go to the Snow Snake Camp, and practice the formation with everyone." ”

Qing Zhongxi said: "Yes, yes, I will definitely live up to my senior sister's expectations." But he did not move his place, as if he would still follow her.

Dong Caiqi said again: "What are you still doing in a daze? Get up early tomorrow morning, you go back to sleep." Qing Zhong then went back to the camp and entered the account.

Dong Caiqi stood and meditated, with troubles in his chest, but there was nothing he could do, so he was even more tired, and just thought: "Although this matter is difficult to talk about, the only way to ask my senior brother is to ask." ”

She used the method of flesh and blood control, and within thirty zhang of her body, everyone's qi and blood emotions were vaguely visible, but she still didn't know where she was. She walked through the tent of the camp, and kept probing, and suddenly her heart moved, and she had come to a very large tent, and the two people in front of the door were shocked when they saw her coming, and said in a loud voice: "The general came late at night, it is really hard and admirable. ”

Dong Caiqi listened to the noise in the tent, laughed harshly, and said some boundless jokes, many of which were adding fuel to himself, and said very obscenely. Hearing the guard's shout, he screamed again and again, ping pong, as if someone had knocked over the table and chairs. Dong Caiqi lifted the cloth and entered, and saw a group of soldiers gathered here, with wine bottles, wine glasses, dice covers, all available, but at this moment he looked at her dumbfounded.

Dong Caiqi smiled slightly and said, "There is still strict training tomorrow morning, and you are in good spirits." ”

Everyone looked at each other, panicked, knowing that Dong Caiqi's military discipline was strict, and they didn't know what heavy punishment was. During this period of time, Dong Caiqi led everyone to win every day, the momentum was like a bamboo, the empress continued to reward, everyone got great benefits, morale was high, and Dong Caiqi was even more admired, although it was inevitable to say some of her fragrant words, but it was just the nature of a rude man, and he couldn't control his mouth, but in fact, he was not half disrespectful, but everyone was loyal. At the moment, she was caught messing around at night, and all of them were like a catastrophe, and they didn't dare to speak.

Dong Caiqi saw Pan Xuan sitting alone in the tent, leaning against the fire, and a wine gourd beside him was also looking at him, as if he blamed her for interrupting the excitement and ruining his interest. She smiled and said: "In another half an hour, if there are still people in the tent, don't blame me for serving in the military law." ”

Everyone erupted in cheers and shouted, "Colorful flag Hou Yingming!" Suddenly, there was a lot of noise and commotion, but Dong Caiqi was present, and he had some scruples and didn't dare to spit out nonsense again.

Seeing that Pan Xuan was not playing with others, Dong Cai Qi just took a sip of wine, closed her eyes, smiled, and behaved strangely, she moved a chair, sat down beside Pan Xuan, and asked, "Senior brother, how long have you been sitting?"

"Count tonight, three days in a row." ”

Dong Caiqi asked, "Why are you.... Why is this so? What about the rest of the same sect?" In addition to Pan Xuan, there are still a few Ten Thousand Immortal masters who come to help, but the rest of the sect people are self-exalted, and they will never burrow into the crowd like Pan Xuan.

He didn't answer, turned his eyes half a circle, and asked, "Look at these faces, smiling every word, do you look like a group of demons dancing?"

Dong Caiqi was puzzled and asked, "Are they just ordinary mortals?"

"But I don't sound like I'm in the world, but like I've entered a demon cave, a group of outlaws who kill people and drink blood, fight and fight to the death." The tone was delightful, and seemed very comfortable.
