Chapter Twenty-Nine: Death Row Prisoners Dare to Do This!
Thank you for the tipping of the real fantasy shadowless book friends......
Fang Ping smiled lightly: "The prince can rest assured, I expect that the guard general Antuo will not send troops to the mountain, but will only defend the heavenly man." ”
Fan Yi listened and smiled slightly. Since Fang Ping said so, he must be sure.
The powerful clan of this Han County, although they have no ability, under the heavy garrison of Xiling, directly take Tianhan City, but they should have the ability to make this Xiling guard general.
"The prince thinks that the battle of Hanjun is to be won quickly or slowly?"
Fan Yi smiled, but before he spoke, Zhou Anqi said: "If you fight, it is naturally better to win quickly." Is it still dragging slowly!"
Fan Yi chuckled and said, "In this way, Fang Senjun feels that it is better to win quickly or slowly!"
Fang Ping said softly: "Quick winner, as long as we quickly send troops, we will block several roads into Han County." Just like when the prince occupied the Sword Gate Pass, he could directly catch turtles in the urn and slowly deal with the enemies of Tianhan. ”
Zhou An and other staff members kept nodding, and Fan Yi was ineffective in besieging Chengzhou City. First take the Jianmen Pass, form a momentum of closing the gate and fighting the dogs, and then slowly deal with the Li Zhi army that is trapped in Chengzhou City.
"However, there are no small enemies in the air, and there are no reinforcements outside. All they are afraid of is the guards of Jianmen Pass, open the gate, and lead the enemies of Hanjun into Chengzhou...... However, the situation in this Han County is different, outside of Han County, there are still millions of people in Xiling......" Fang Ping explained.
"Fang joins the army because he wants to ......" Li Qi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he reacted immediately: "Put the Xiling people in little by little to clean up?"
Fang Ping glanced at Li Qi unexpectedly, he didn't expect that a captain of the personal guard beside Fan Yi had such a vision. The meaning of what he said had already been thought of so quickly!
Between Han County and Qinzhou. Across the Bashan and Qinling Mountains, there are many mountains. There are only a few mountain trails in between. Whether it's an army or a baggage. It's very difficult to get through guò. Not to mention, a large number of war horses.
Therefore, Fang Ping's strategy is actually very bold. It is to put Xiling's troops into Han County, and then slowly clean up.
This has completely gained the strategic initiative, and no matter the right time, place, and people, all of them are in their own hands. It is equivalent to cutting meat with a blunt knife, as long as Xiling's dare to reach out and reach in. Chop it off with a knife.
Repeat it a few times, and the strength of the Xiling people will suffer a huge loss.
This strategy is somewhat similar to another world, Jiang Wei guarding Chuanzhong. It's just that Jiang Wei smashed up and transferred his main force to Longyou, and the guard force was empty. As a result, Deng Ai was surprised and killed directly by crossing the path. Before Jiang Wei's brigade had time to react and support, they went all the way to Chengdu. Forced the queen to surrender!
And here it is. His own army is heavily guarded, and he is personally in charge, so I don't think there will be such a problem.
Speaking of which, though. This strategy is really a test of your own courage!
By now, Fan Yi was already very clear about Xiling's situation. That's what I knew. Xiling is not all the power of the Western Witches.
In fact, Western shamans are now divided into three divisions. All of them are under the command of the Wolf Mountain Royal Court. The Xiling Royal Court is just a part of the Wolf Mountain Royal Court. It occupies the two states of Lingqin and the thirty-six kingdoms of the Western Regions. The country is strong.
However, it is the White Wolf Court that occupies Tianzhu, and now it is invading the snow region and fighting a war with the Qiang witches above the snow region.
However, it is the Wolf Mountain Royal Court itself that is at war with the Sassanid of the Heavenly Side, and it is also the most powerful branch of the Western Witches.
In this case, it must be to weaken the power of the Western Spirit as much as possible while the Western Witches are not yet capable of invading Middle-earth.
Fan Yi smiled lightly, then bet. To have the opportunity to confront the West Spirits, and to test the combat power of these West Spirit people in their unfavorable terrain. This kind of good thing, how to find it elsewhere!
In today's world, not only the monarch chooses the minister, but the minister also chooses the monarch. wants to make Fang Ping, a talented Wang Zuo, completely convinced. I don't have any ability and courage, but where is there such an easy thing?
"Then let's take a few slow steps, and it will take three or five years. As long as the war does not spread to Chengzhou, we will slowly bleed the Xiling people......"
They have arrangements in Chengzhou, with Zhai Leng and Yanzhen in charge, and they can carry out the construction of township pavilions and government soldiers in an orderly manner.
After spending two or three years, my own family will only get stronger and stronger. And the Xiling people are separated by lofty mountains and dangers, and they go on an expedition, and when they come down a few times, they will have their people exhausted!
Thousands of miles away, the Underworld, the Xiling Palace.
"Boom...... a table was kicked out and hit the pillar inlaid with gold and jade, making a loud noise. All kinds of tokens on the table are flying around.
However, in the huge tents of the entire royal court, which covered an area of many miles, there was silence, and not a single person spoke.
"These middle-earth tyrants can't be trusted!" King Xiling gritted his teeth and sneered: "I trust them so much, I can't imagine that these thieves would dare to collude with each other and give Hanjun directly to Fan Yi's thief......"
Only when you lose can you know that you regret it, originally the Xiling Royal Court didn't attach too much importance to Han County. As long as you know that there are only 10,000 witch soldiers stationed in its place, you can know its attitude.
However, this time, Hanzhong rebelled, shocking the Xiling royal court. At this time, they suddenly discovered that the strategic location of Han County was so important.
It's no wonder, though. It is important to look at the Xiling people, although they occupy the two states of Lingqin. However, the royal court was not in the two states of Lingqin.
It's just that at the junction of Lingzhou and Saiwai, I know that they don't attach so much importance to Lingqin Erzhou. At least not as a place of heart.
The Xiling Royal Court covers an area of tens of thousands of miles, and the territory is extremely vast, compared to the two states of Lingqin and Qin, it is only an inconspicuous part. The current strategic focus of the Xiling Royal Court is to fight this million-scale war with the Sassanids in the heavenly side.
"Wang, do you want to kill all these middle-earth tyrants who eat inside and out!" shouted a man with a scar on his face, almost square all over his body, and as short and stout as a man.
"No, the great monk commanded. If you want to take Middle-earth, you must treat these Middle-earth tyrants well...... Can't kill them all...... But. Whoever is involved in it, but we can't let it go!"
This Xiling King sneered. Don't kill a few people. I'm afraid that those wealthy families in Middle-earth don't know how to be afraid.
"Yes!" he listened to the command. A sinister smile appeared on the face of the general who was covered in cubes: "I know what to do!"
Waiting for Bahu to walk away, someone else asked: "Great Khan, do I want to send troops......
"Nonsense," exclaimed a hot-tempered general, "Needless to say, those thieves who naturally want to raise troops and kill all the thieves in Han County." I will slaughter the city, and not a single person will be left to kill Han Jun!"
"It's just that Nahan County is a big mountain, and it's very difficult to walk...... Moreover, we have been delayed for so long. only to get the news. I'm afraid that Anto is already dead, and Hanjun has been taken down entirely!"
In the tabernacle, there was a lot of controversy. Most of the Xiling generals, though annoyed by the betrayal of Han County. However, these shamans, who are accustomed to galloping horses in the vast world outside the Saiwai, really don't have much interest in the rugged mountain roads of Hanjun.
So, there was an argument.
Bahu went directly out of the king's tent. A handful of military horses were lit. The momentum rushed towards the place where Zhang's house was.
At this moment, Zhang Wu was sitting quietly and changing into a Confucian costume. Black robe, high bamboo crown. Plastic surgery and sitting.
In a moment, I saw the general of the West Spirit kicking open the door angrily and breaking in. The sounds of killing and screaming outside followed the intrusion.
Zhang Wu ...... You ......"
Na Bahu had already looked at Zhang Wu unpleasantly, and this time he broke in with a cruel smile. Blood was still dripping from the scimitar. In his mind, Zhang Wu at this time. It should have been like a frightened bird a long time ago, full of ugliness.
However, I saw Zhang Wu sitting solemnly. Looking up, an indescribable solemn feeling came over me.
Let Bahu subconsciously, his steps paused, and the smug words in his mouth couldn't spit out a word.
This feeling seems to be a bit like the majesty that the shamans of the clan have when they are possessed by gods.
"I am a Confucian in Middle Earth, a Lingzhou general, and a courtier. Today's Death Festival!" As he spoke, a sword flicked up in his palm, and the sword light flashed, and the man had already killed himself with a horizontal sword.
This plucked for a long time, and then he reacted, and he became angry for a while. Originally, I wanted to kill this Zhang Wu before, and teased this person like cat and mouse.
However, I didn't think ...... Thinking of the scene when Zhang Wu was dying just now, this Bahu felt that he was humiliated by this person.
"Death row prisoner dares to do this!" Bahu was furious and refused to give up. Seeing that Zhang Wu was dead, but the body was sitting still, he couldn't help but be even more angry. went up with a sword and cut off Zhang Wu's head.
Even so, the anger in his chest did not quench. went up and kicked Zhang Wu's corpse to the ground.
But he saw a spiritual light, and in a shock, he flew out. It's just that this is not what ordinary generals and martial artists can see.
However, at this moment. Above the originally clear sky, a thunderclap suddenly sounded, and this little spiritual light was dispersed before it had a chance to fly into the Confucian temple.
Almost at the same time, many of the witches who were deliberating in the king's tent were also shocked by this thunder.
"It's the ...... of Immortality"
"It's the Golden Light Ancient God......"
The generals in the king's tent stood up and spoke solemnly, with deep awe.
But at this time, it was as if countless iron hooves were striking on the earth.
After a while, I listened to the commotion outside. A team of witches, holding a golden wolf-headed token in their hands, broke in directly.
There are more than 100,000 horses stationed in this tent of the king of Hades, and it is so tightly guarded.
However, seeing this small group of people, no one dared to stop them. They fell to their knees like waves of wheat blown by the wind.
"It's an emissary sent by the Golden Wolf King...... all the witches looked at the token in fear.
represents the Golden Wolf King, who has supreme power among the Western Witches.
It was eighteen years ago that the powerful Golden Wolf King received the support of the Golden Light Ancient God and allied with the large and small tribes of the Western Witches in Wolf Mountain.
Three huge golden figures were cast to sacrifice to the Immortal Heaven, unifying all the Western witches, known as the Wolf Mountain Royal Court. The most powerful hero among the Western witches, the king, was born.
Later, because the territory of the Western witches was too vast. Therefore, the Golden Wolf King named his two younger brothers as the White Wolf King and the Black Wolf King.
The so-called Western Spirit, which occupies the two states of Lingqin and the countries of the Western Regions, is just the Black Wolf King.
Even so. None of the people under the command of the Black Wolf King dared to defy the majesty of the Golden Wolf King.
Even countless captives and huge sums of money are sent every year. Support the war between the Golden Wolf King and the Sassanids. Even the White Wolf King is the same!
The next moment, I saw young people one by one. Holding the gold medal high, he walked into the king's tent.
When the generals saw this token, they all fell down in fear.
The White Wolf King smiled dryly and asked, "Fang Xiang, my good nephew, why did you come to me?" And holding your father's token!"
Fang Xiang, who was holding the token, looked very young, and even the fluff on his mouth still remained.
However, his gaze was like cold electricity. Strafing the tame generals at their feet.
"My father, the mighty Golden Wolf King like the Wolf Mountain, sued me. You've grown up. It's time for the eaglet to leave the she-owl's wings and fly, so I'm here. Under my uncle's command, I will take all of Middle-earth for my father!"
......Hearing this, all the generals in the king's tent felt that something was wrong.
Just listening to that Fang Xiang sneered: "The Golden Wolf King sues me, your uncle is old." He didn't have the courage to gallop and kill people on a horse for a long time, and wealth had already worn out his courage. After so many years, it's only two states in Middle-earth......"
The Black Wolf King suddenly became red-faced and red-eared, and the Golden Wolf King had ordered him to conquer the entire Middle Earth. Let the iron hooves of the Western shamans tread every corner of Middle-earth.
He was back then. It's such a swear. However, the richness of Middle-earth was beyond his imagination, and all kinds of exquisite, undreamed of qiē, soon satisfied him. And the enemy's difficulty. It made him less and less interested in war......
Until now, this young over-the-top nephew has come to reprimand him with the token of the Golden Wolf King!
Is this to take his throne?
But at this time. The prime minister suddenly took the gold medal. Became hippie and smiled: "My uncle, I have put what my father asked me to say. All brought. Now I am under your king's tent. Obey your orders!"
When the Black Wolf King heard this, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief. As long as it is not to take his throne, it is easy to say.
He forced a smile: "Don't worry, my nephew. I'll treat you well. You have come just in time, those people in Hanjun have betrayed my royal court. I need generals to put down the rebellion......" ......
"I took Tianhan City so easily," he was a little stunned.
However, this is the case at hand. The gate of Tianhan City was wide open, and the guard general Antuo led the Xiling soldiers under his command to kneel outside the city gate, waiting for Fan Yi, the conqueror, to step into the city.
And the soldiers under Fan Yi's command have already swarmed in and controlled the city defense.
This qiē can't be faked in the slightest!
"These Xiling people seem to be boasting very powerfully, but don't they look very good?" Zhou An said, and even glanced at Fang Ping defiantly.
Fang Ping's mouth blows the strength of the witch to the sky. However, the Western Spirit defenders of Tianhan City did not look very good.
I don't know how to send a large army to fight for the military mountain, not to mention, even the defense of the city is a mess. Almost after a few of Fan Yi's cannons were bombarded, a white flag was raised in the city!
In this way, it is hard to believe that the combat power of the Xiling people is so powerful. More importantly, it seems that seeing that Fan Yi is increasingly valuing this Fang Ping, he is a bit of a threat to Zhou An's status.
Fan Yi smiled faintly: "The Xiling people are good at cavalry, and they are not good at defending the city, so there is nothing strange about it! It is always a good thing to be able to take Tianhan City lightly." ”
Although Fan Yi also had doubts in his heart, but being able to win Han County, Fang Ping naturally made the greatest contribution. There is no doubt about it.
What's more, whether it is luck or ability, Fan Yi attaches great importance to it.
"Villain Anto, meet your nobles!" As they walked over, the Western Spirit Descendant knelt down two steps and kissed Fan Yi's boots.
This made Fan Yi's guards a little nervous. Before I could stop it, I saw it.
"This is the etiquette of the shaman...... When they see a noble person, they will perform such a courtesy, that is, they are the slaves of the nobleman!" Fang Ping explained.
Fan Yi looked at this pot-bellied Xiling general with a flattering face, and suddenly understood a little.
Looking over again, I saw those Xiling commanders who surrendered. The centurions, one by one, were on their knees. Same expression.
Fan Yi suddenly became in a good mood, and helped this Anto up with his own hands: "Hahaha." Yes, yes, you have offered this city to me. He has done a great job for me, and he should be rewarded, and he will be rewarded, and he will give Anto a thousand gold ......."
The so-called 1,000 gold is naturally 1,000 catties of gold. Just a thousand gold cakes, one pound, weighed 10,000 yuan. A few soldiers were sent to carry two chests, and when they opened them, they saw the gold in the sun, and almost blinded people's eyes.
At this moment, Anto's eyes widened greedily, and the golden light was reflected in his pupils. He even forgot a qiē and threw himself at the gold.
Fan Yi's guards wanted to stop them with disdain, but Fan Yi waved his hand and let them go. He even watched with satisfaction as Anto put the gold cake in his mouth and bite it.
Look at the centurions again. and the centurions, one by one, their noses flapping. I can't wait to pounce on it immediately, push Anto away, and grab it myself. Divide the gold.
"Shizi, these witches are useless and greedy, what's the use of keeping them? Sneered with disdain.
Fan Yi smiled faintly: "It's these witches who are like this, so I can stay and be useful." ”
At all hours. These many traitors and witches are of great use. Even far more than the usefulness of his own army of 100,000.
Not to mention. With the surrender there were 10,000 witch soldiers. These can't all be killed. Only by keeping these generals can we win over this army......
"The commander will reward 100 gold, and the centurion will reward 10 gold!" Fan Yi ordered.
"Yes ......" At this time, the guards carried bags and threw bags of gold cakes in front of these people.
A commander of a thousand was the quickest to react and shouted, "Thank you for your reward, thank you for your reward!"
The sorcerer generals shouted as they scrambled to pick up the gold bags. One by one, they smiled.
Gold is hard currency everywhere, whether it is in Sasanian or Tianzhu, it is average. It's all about wealth!
was so bustling, and only then did he embrace Fan Yi and walk into Tianhan City. At the gate of the city, there were more witch soldiers kneeling, and the scene of the yellow, orange and orange gold just now had already been seen by them. All of them are envious, jealous and hateful......
"These witches are greedy and unrelated, but since they have surrendered to me. Then there is no way back!" Fan Yi commanded: "You can believe it, but you have to guard against ......"
"Yes!" Fang Ping said with a smile: "This time, the prince of the world will buy horse bones, I believe that there will be more and more witches who are willing to surrender to the prince in the future!"
Fan Yi smiled, there are still a lot of open-pit gold mines in this era. The rewards of gold in all dynasties are hundreds of thousands of catties.
For example, in another world, during the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the general Wei Qing attacked the Xiongnu and made great achievements, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was happy and rewarded him with 200,000 catties of gold.
Another great general, Huo Quai, attacked the Xiongnu, and his military exploits were even greater, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty rewarded him with 500,000 catties of gold.
Although Wei Qing and Huo Qubing both opened a government and built a mansion, the hundreds of thousands of catties of gold rewarded by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty were not for the two of them, but for all the soldiers under their command.
Some people say that the so-called gold at that time was just copper, and that the craftsmanship of the ancients was too low to distinguish the difference between gold and brass.
But in fact, it is nonsense, which is clearly recorded in ancient books: "There are three grades of gold, gold is the top, platinum is the middle, and red gold is the bottom." "Needless to say, white gold is silver, and red gold is copper.
In the earlier official histories such as "Historical Records", "Book of Han", and "Book of the Later Han", anything written "gold" may refer to gold, copper, or all metals in general, and may only be a synonym for money, but as long as it is written as "gold", "combined gold", "pure gold", "upper gold", or with a special monetary unit such as "eridium" after "gold", it must refer to gold.
As early as the pre-Qin era, the distinction between gold and brass was already known, because gold was soft and bright, and it was dense and heavy.
Brass color copper dark hardness high weight light, gold bite with teeth will have dents, brass bite may knock out teeth, the same weight of gold and brass volume difference more than doubled, so there will never be a joke to see brass as gold.
It's just that in those days, there were many open-pit or shallowly buried gold mines. In later generations, there were fewer and fewer gold mines that could be easily discovered. And there is also less gold in circulation......
And in this world, there is also a lot of gold. Not to mention anything else, just the gold sand that the Earth God Monarch found in the Liujin River back then produced tens of thousands of catties of gold for the Dayu Imperial Court every year.
Therefore, the reward is not as much as imagined. (To be continued......)
