Chapter Twenty-Nine: The War Is About to Begin

The fire in the valley burned all night.

The fire burned all the wagons.

The ground was covered with gaped blades and blood that had not yet dried up.

The blood mixed with water covered the fleshy corpse, hiding the fact that it had long been swollen and rotten.

After a cursory glance at the tragic slope, Wen Short's eyes quickly focused on the carriage loaded with grain.

The charred carriage emitted billowing smoke.

Mars spreads rapidly among the black charcoals, like a glamorous epiphany that has just bloomed and quickly withered.

"You really didn't find any food?"

In front of the alternate epiphany, the expressionless Wen Short asked with a slight sigh.

"General. ”

After Wen Short, he stood on the ground with one fist, and the general who knelt on the ground on one knee immediately picked up his fists.

"There is indeed no food on the wagon. ”

"It's a neat start. ”

Smiling, Wen Xiao raised his head slightly and took a deep breath.

The pungent smell of burnt smell mixed with the stench of bloody corpses penetrated Wen Short's nasal cavity.

The face closed his eyes in enjoyment, and the dawn sun shone on his face.

"Really clean handling. ”

Opening his eyes and staring at the early morning sun, Wen Short pulled out the sword at his waist and lifted it in front of him with one hand.

The bladeless sword body is unpretentious in the sun.

The tip of the bladed sword shone in the light.

In the dazzling brilliance, a hideous smile appeared on Wen Short's face. "The old guy from Anyang County, let me catch it. ”

Dingbian County sent to Caoyun County was Wen Short, and Anyang County sent to Caoyun County was Zhou He.

Wen Short, 22 years old.

Zhou He, 57 years old.

The generals of the battlefield conquest must talk about their status and strength.

But the most important thing is experience.

Zhou He joined the army at the age of sixteen, fought on the battlefield for Anyang County, and became a general after four years.

He himself is also the brother of the county lord of Anyang County.

Years of military career, accumulated a wealth of experience.

The noble identity and outstanding martial arts made Zhou Hezhi even more proud.

For Wen Short, who represents Dingbian County and is also stationed in Caoyun County, Zhou Heda looks down on him from the bottom of his heart.

Like Dingbian County, Anyang County also received many refugees, and food was also scarce.

And the valley that has been selected by the roots is exactly where the two regions intersect.

Wen Short's people found the carts and horses transporting grain, and Zhou He's people found the same.

But unlike Wen Short, Zhou He did not pick up thousands of elite soldiers, and immediately rushed to the valley.

Zhou He ordered all the soldiers, brought all the grain and grass, and then drove to the destination.

"Wen Short, this stinky boy, must have rushed to the valley with the elite soldiers he trained. ”

A long white beard that flutters in the wind.

The forehead is folded, and the cheeks with age spots are flushed at this time.

Under the canopy of green brocade, Zhou He stroked the handle of the double-sided iron axe on his side, pursed his lips and smiled.

"The general is clever, last night on the valley slope, our army spies did see the fire. ”

Next to the chariot, there stood a general wearing silver shining armor, a fiery red horse, and a thick beard on his face.

At this time, the general looked at Zhou He who was standing in the chariot with admiration.

"Heh, a child is a child. ”

The smile on Zhou He's face stopped, and his eyes were full of disdain and contempt.

"If you know the way of military training, you think you can lead soldiers?"

"It was also Wen Dou Lao'er who was blind, and he turned him into a feudal official. ”

"What the general said is very true. ”

The middle-aged general next to the chariot bowed slightly, and his reverence was overflowing.

"Looking at the fire last night, the carts and horses carrying grain must not be from Dingbian County, but if they are from this county, the short text will inevitably make us oppose it. ”

"If the cart and horse transporting grain are from Mochuan County, our army will come out, but he is a young soldier lightly armed, and he can let him hand over half of it. ”

"Huh. ”

The hand that caressed the handle of the axe suddenly clenched.

On Zhou He's face, between the slitted eyes, a cold gaze burst out.

"When the grain cart suddenly arrived, it was the day of war between the two places!"

"It's just a short and stupid article, and we dare to make such a dangerous move with a small number of elite soldiers, but we are latecomers. ”

"This time, not only to seize grain and grass, but also to kill the widows and kill their elite soldiers!"

"The general is far-sighted. ”

On the back of a fiery red horse, the middle-aged general bowed to Zhou He with a fist.

"Zhou Mei is far behind. ”

Turning his head to look at Zhou Jie next to the chariot, Zhou He bowed slightly.

"This time, the seizure of grain and grass is the most important, and the consumption of its strength is secondary. ”

"Wen Short, this kid does have a set of military training, and in his army, even if it is an ordinary soldier's combat strength, it is much more than my sergeant. ”

"Command generals at all levels, all parties must act at the opportunistic, and must not be careless!"

Zhou Mei obeyed. ”

Bowing his head and clenching his fists, Zhou Li grabbed the reins and drove the horse backwards.

In the army of 10,000 people, there are many swords and halberds.

In the continuous procession, the infantry gathered, the cavalry gathered, and the chariot soldiers gathered.

After months of exposure, a large amount of water in the wild lingered.

In the wilderness, on the washed-out roads, the army could not pass through.

Fortunately, the destination was not far from their station, and the forward infantry cut down grass and trees along the way, and built bridges with wood.

Just behind the Wenshu Department, in one day and one night, just before noon that day, Zhou He and the garrison of Anyang County finally arrived only thirty miles away from the valley.

But beyond Zhou He's expectations, Wen Short, who originally thought that he should lead his troops out of the valley and go towards the way he came, was at this time, he was taking the whole army and stationed in the valley to make food.

The soldiers sent by Wen Short, with the order flag for the transfer of troops, had already set off.

And the place where Wen Short is about to lead the army is not far from the valley, the village of Anyang County.

However, the exchange of armies took several days.

And the army led by Zhou He has already come to the front.

"What did you say!"

Under the ancient pine, on the roots of the trees protruding from the surface, Wen Short held a porcelain bowl full of vegetable porridge with one hand, with an incredible face.

"Thirty miles away, the garrison of Anyang County appeared. ”

"General. ”

The childish general knelt down on one knee in front of Wen Short's body, with a solemn and serious face.

"Our army spies have repeatedly confirmed that among the soldiers and horses that came, it was indeed the banner armor of Anyang County. “

The hand holding the porcelain bowl stood stiffly in front of his chest.

Wen Short's eyes widened, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately stood up.

With a strained foot, he jumped to his feet.

Wen Short jumped to the top of Honka, stroked his forehead with his hand, and looked out of the valley.

A trickle of water flows down the narrow stream into the distance.

Countless soldiers are building barracks by the stream.

Countless large flags inlaid with green satin and purple have been standing next to the barracks that are about to be erected.

The hideous black cheetah, printed on the purple flagcloth, unfolded with the wind and waves.

Surrounded by many flags, the handsome flag painted with the word Zhou is scattered, like a wave of air rolling on the fire.
