Chapter 51: Blood in the Valley on a Cold Autumn Night (I)

Zhang Fan took Qingluo to the front of the soldiers, and all the soldiers said in unison: "I've seen the general!" The first soldier came forward and said: "General, the whole army has arrived, please instruct." ”

Zhang Fan glanced at the generals and said lightly: "Soldiers, most of my miscellaneous soldiers are despised, and today the commander has an order, and he will select fifty elite soldiers to join the army to participate in the military competition." The general wants to select fifty soldiers with the highest cultivation, the most abundant combat experience, and the most flexible mind from among the generals to participate in the battle with the generals, who is willing to go?" When the soldiers heard this, they suddenly became noisy and said in a gossiping voice: "General, the little ones are willing to go! The little ones are willing to go!"

Zhang Fan raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down, and then said lightly: "The soldiers above the Bone Refining Realm are out of the ranks!" Everyone became noisy again when they heard this, and then nearly a hundred armor soldiers stood still. Zhang Fan was slightly shocked when he saw this, and said: "You are equivalent to the cultivation of two by two, but you must not hurt the other party's life, and the winner will leave with the general." When all the soldiers heard this, they all looked for opponents to train.

Zhang Fan looked at everyone facing Wu with an expressionless face. A little forty-nine of the winners of the competition came out of the ranks, and they all said in unison: "General!" Zhang Fan glanced at all the armor soldiers, and said loudly: "The loser will continue to stay in the barracks and prepare military supplies." The remaining nearly 1,000 soldiers said in unison: "Yes, General." The subordinates will continue to work hard, and next time they will definitely go to battle with the general!" Zhang Fan said lightly: "Go down." Then he said to the soldiers around him: "You forty-nine people will be divided into five people and one team later, a total of ten teams, and five teams will be one team, a total of two teams." Now return to the camp at once, take your armor and rations, and wait for me before the big tent. The crowd replied and quickly left.

Everyone left, and Zhang Fan said to Qingluo: "Let's go back." Then the two of them hurried back to the account.

Slightly. Zhang Fan and the two returned to the tent. Qingluo looked at Zhang Fan and said softly: "Childe, can the slave prepare a meal for you?" Zhang Fan smiled: "No need." I just ate it. Qingluo said again: "Childe, the slave maid will prepare some food and gold sore medicine for you, right?" Zhang Fan smiled again: "Qingluo, you don't need to be busy with these." We just have to stay here. Qingluo cried: "Childe, is there something wrong with the slave?" Zhang Fan stepped forward, took Qingluo's little hand, and said softly: "Qingluo don't worry, Childe, I have already prepared the things that should be prepared." I'm just here to talk to you. Hearing this, Qingluo hurriedly said: "What does the son want Qingluo to do?" Zhang Fan smiled: "Qingluo." This son's battle this time is fine, but he is worried about Qingluo's safety. Therefore, after I leave, you and the officers and men of the army will definitely relocate the station, and at the same time actively prepare military rations. If something happens along the way, you don't have to worry. The lieutenant generals will definitely deal with it. Qingluo hurriedly said: "Why did the general say this." Aren't we very good here? Besides, we've just won. Why worry about the enemy attacking?" Zhang Fan smiled: "Just in case." Qingluo nodded.

"General!" came the voice of the armor soldier outside the tent. Zhang Fan glanced at Qingluo and said, "I'm leaving." Qingluo's eyes were slightly red, and she nodded. Zhang Fan had already explained to the sect members in the army that he had made arrangements, and he was worried about it, and then he left the military tent.

As soon as he came out, the two armor soldiers stepped forward and said, "Subordinate Daniel Zhang (Zhao Meng) has seen the general. Zhang Fan saw that both of them had blood refining realm cultivation and were from the True Dragon Sect, so he said, "You have all arranged the affairs of the army." The two nodded and said, "Don't worry, general." It's all arranged. We can go right away. Zhang Fan said: "Okay!"

"General, your horse. The first soldier led Huang Bi and stepped forward. Zhang Fan nodded. Then he turned over his horse and said to everyone: "Go!" Then Zhang Fan and his entourage of fifty black armor elite rode out and galloped out.

Late at night, a group of about ten black-clad warriors silently hiked forward in a canyon on the north bank. After a while, the group approached the end of the canyon, and there was a sound of the river flowing in front of them, and the surroundings were a little dark. From time to time, tigers roared and apes cried, wolves howled and horses neighed echoed in the valley.

A man in black suddenly stretched out his hand to stop everyone from advancing, and then everyone stopped. The man in black at the head took out ten sachets from his bosom and handed them to everyone. Everyone took the bag and quickly disappeared into the mountains and forests on both sides of the river valley. The man in black at the head was still standing.

After a while, the man in black raised his eyes to look at the hazy crescent moon in the sky, and then looked at a high mountain peak in the distance, and then turned into a black wind and disappeared in an instant.

In a moment, the man in black came to the peak. This is the highest mountain in the Yuyue River Valley, and it is close to the river valley, and one can stand on it and overlook the entire river valley. At this time, the man in black glanced at the several dead corpses around him, and then looked at the pass in the secluded valley that looked a little simple and rough. The fire on the high platform lit up the avenue along the river valley, illuminated the surging river below the pass, and illuminated the cavalry soldiers who wore armor and held sharp spears, and constantly patrolled above and in front of the pass.

This man in black is none other than Zhang Fan. At noon today, he sent forty-nine elite armor warriors led by him, selected five hundred elite soldiers who were all above the blood refining realm from tens of thousands of troops, divided them into ten groups, and quietly ambushed them along the Youyue River Valley overnight, preparing to attack the fortress of the Rong army - Youyue Pass in the middle of the night.

He agreed with Gao Wolf and Qin Tai that when the wolf howl sounded in the valley of the Youyue River, they would immediately lead the army into the valley and attack and kill the panicked Rong army. Gao Yu agreed with him that after Gao Yu and the two of them occupied the only fortress of the Rong army in the Youyue River Valley, Youyue Pass, they would immediately signal with rockets, and Gao Yu would immediately lead a large army to occupy Youyue Pass.

Now Zhang Fan's five hundred elite soldiers have been ambushed in the river valley, and the two thousand elite cavalry of Gao Wolf and the two have been waiting quietly at the southeast entrance of the river valley, and Gao Yu is also waiting silently in the camp. Zhang Fan had already found out that the Haorong army only had 5,000 soldiers in the Youyue River Valley, and nearly half of them were distributed in the Mengmeng Mountains as spies to monitor the Qi army, nearly half of the soldiers were guarding the Youyue Pass, and the other armies were camped at the north bank of the mountain at the northwest mouth of the Youyue River Valley.

What Zhang Fan had to do was to kill the guards and generals in Youyue Pass, and at the same time prevent the Rong army from escaping and joining the army in the northwest, so as to buy enough time for Gao Wolf and Gao Yu to occupy the pass and Gao Yu to enter the valley. But at this time, he couldn't help but be solemn when he saw the gate made of dark iron and the pass made of boulders.

These are not problems at all for Zhang Fan, but they are great challenges for his subordinates. If he is not careful, more than 2,000 troops will quickly swallow up his 500 elite soldiers. The Dark Moon Pass may not be able to open. In addition, Zhang Fan also faintly felt that he was sorry for Qingyan for doing this, after all, Qingyan had never hurt himself. However, he inquired about the intelligence of the Rong army and made the Rong army lose the war.

Although Zhang Fan was unhappy last night, he felt more guilty about her. He faced her speechlessly, and he didn't even bring Liu San back. However, he thought about it a lot, the Rong Kingdom has always been the world of the Immortal Emperor, the world of the Ma family, and Qingyan is not the ruler of the Rong Kingdom now. Other than that. He wants to unify the Tianyuan Continent, he has no army that belongs to him and is loyal to himself. A qiē is empty talk. It is very easy to subdue hundreds of low-level martial artists, but it is not so simple to subdue hundreds of innate masters. Zhang Fan can also develop his own sect members into an army, but they are of other use, and time waits for no one now. At most, the sect members are a group of powerful warriors. There are many concerns. Not the military. Soldiers regard obedience to propositions as their duty, while the congregation does not have such a high consciousness.

If Zhang Fan wants to control a considerable amount of power in a short period of time, he must defeat the Rong army, convince everyone, and the emperor will reward him, and then take over the army in name only, and then develop them into his own strength. There is a difference between the battle of martial arts in the rivers and lakes and the struggle for power in the imperial court. People in the rivers and lakes are respected by strength. The winner goes up and the loser goes down. In the court, people's hearts are complicated. Power is intertwined, and personal force cannot convince people from the bottom of their hearts, only the fame, prestige and influence of individuals can be followed. This is a kind of expression of consistent interests, everyone in the world respects a certain person, then everyone's purpose and ultimate interests are closely related to that person, and at the same time, everyone is silently maintaining the relationship of interests between people from top to bottom.

Therefore, Zhang Fan decided to personally lead the elite soldiers to break through the border and attack the army, improve his prestige in the army, so as to gradually control the power of the army, let them echo with the sects on the rivers and lakes, occupy and erode the entire Tianyuan Continent in one light and one in the dark, and finally complete his great cause of unifying Tianyuan.

"General! Just as Zhang Fan was thinking, a voice sounded in his ears. Zhang Fan turned around and saw that the person who came was a disciple in the army, so he nodded, and then waved at him to signal him to leave.

Zhang Fan glanced at the silent night sky, the misty mountains and the bleak moon in the sky, and knew that this place would become a hell on earth next, flesh and blood, and couldn't help but feel that the autumn wind blowing on his face became more and more cold. He pursed his lips, thought of the command of the whole army-wolf howl, and let out a miserable wolf howl: "Woo ......" Then his heart moved, took out the black sword, and flew down the mountain.

As soon as the loud wolf howl sounded, the entire narrow and narrow Youyue River Valley suddenly became weird.

In a moment, the moon closed, and the black-clothed people jumped up to the pass, reaping the soldiers and soldiers who were quietly guarding the pass. Before they could react, they turned into bloody corpses. Unconsciously, a faint smell of blood filled the Youyue Pass, and the brute beasts in the surrounding mountains and wilderness howled.

"Whew......"

"Roaring ......"

"Whew......"

"Enemy attack!" shouted somebody. Then the entire Youyue Pass boiled, and the Rong sergeant shouted bitterly: "Enemy attack! enemy attack! enemy attack...... Immediately the barbarian beasts and soldiers in the surrounding mountains and fields also shouted bitterly.

On the corridor of Youyue Pass, Zhang Fan turned into a black wind, constantly shuttling through the surging Rong army below, the black sword kept waving, the purple light flickered, and the Rong army fell one by one. It was a naked slaughter, not a war. The Rong army woke up too late, and they only reacted when they smelled blood, but most of them fell asleep forever as soon as they reacted.

Zhang Fan killed the enemy all the way from the top to the bottom, went down the stairs, and came to the ground, surrounded by broken corpses and rivers of blood. The front and back of the gate were covered with corpses, it was the masterpiece of his men, and when Zhang Fan killed the gate, the gate below was also opened.

The black-clothed men covered in blood came from both sides one after another, and said in unison: "General, all the people in Youyue Pass have been killed. Zhang Fan nodded.

"General, it's not good!" As soon as everyone finished speaking, a man in black rushed in outside the north gate. Zhang Fan shouted, "What's the matter?" The man said, "General, our scout team saw a large group of Rong cavalry galloping towards this side. ”

Zhang Fan was shocked when he heard this, and immediately shouted: "Hurry up and close the gate! Send someone to greet our army!" Immediately, everyone quickly cleaned up the corpse at the north gate and was about to close the north gate.

However, the sound of horses' hooves approached quickly, and a rain of crossbows rained down on the gate. There was a roar.

"Thief dares!"

"Kill!"

"Despicable Qi thief!"

Zhang Fan didn't care about anything else, seeing that everyone had cleared the obstacles, he immediately braved the crossbow rain and slowly closed the heavy and clumsy Xuantie gate, and then closed the several Xuantie gates behind.

Not long after, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves echoed through the valley, and the neighing of horses and the roar of men resounded through the valley. The Rong army arrived.

It's a pity that the weapons built by the Rong people are sharp, and the bunkers are not bad, and the Xuantie gate with a thickness of several zhang can only be barely pushed by dozens of high-level warriors. When the Rong army arrived outside the pass, they could only look at the pass and sigh, and the horses and armor soldiers were killed and piled up in front of the pass, but they did not see the slightest loosening of the gate. On both sides of the Xuantie Gate, the north and south of the Youyue Pass, there are basically two different worlds.

Zhang Fan listened to the miserable howl outside, smelled the strong smell of blood, looked at everyone, and laughed: "Let's go to the pass to take a look, as long as we don't let the high-ranking warriors of the Rong army kill them, Youyue Pass will belong to us from now on." Immediately, dozens of people stayed at the gate, and others followed Zhang Fan to the bunker. (To be continued......)
