Wu Gen sat on the holly bird, fidgeting with the Qingwei umbrella back and forth in his hand, looking a little dazed. Until today, he didn't know how much effort the evil god had put into him, and he didn't hesitate to deploy people early to monitor his every move.
Huansha Nu is just one of them. Perhaps a passerby he met in the market, or an ordinary soldier in the Fearless Army, may be controlled by the evil god and silently watch his every move.
This kind of control does not mean that people completely lose their consciousness, but that they unconsciously complete the evil god's orders unconsciously. Some people may not understand until their death that they have become someone else's puppet. Only people like Huan Shanu feel that they are no longer completely themselves, and they want to get rid of this invisible bondage.
Before parting, Huansha Nu gave the Qingwei umbrella to Wu Gen, hoping it would be helpful to him. Looking at this slightly old and ordinary-looking paper umbrella, Wu Gen frowned, thinking about how to remove the evil god's control over him and how to find the eye that was hidden somewhere in the soul.
The holly bird landed in Xianwan City, and Wu Gen went straight to the Governor's Mansion. Along the way, the Fearless Army can be seen mobilizing troops and generals, obviously preparing for war.
"Captain, you are back." Yang Zheng hurried into the governor's house, the fat on his face kept beating, "The Hua family came to send a secret message and agreed to raise troops to attack the Hulan family in twenty days. The Shui Xiaowei has already Leading the troops out of Yingzhu Peak to the west, Hu Sima and others also accompanied him."
"Oh, so fast." Wu Gen's expression changed slightly, and he walked towards the stone wall in the palace, where there were maps of Bailing, Tieshou, and Shule provinces. Just not
Once here in Liangzhe Mountain, there is still a large blank space.
Although the Fearless Army is entrenched in the mountains, the scope of its activities is limited after all. Compared with the huge Liangzhe Mountain, it is less than 10%. This was because Yu Songsu had opened up the road to the south, otherwise he would not be able to go to many places.
"Where does our army need to attack?" Wu Gen looked up at the map.
"According to the Hua family's plan, our army must cut into the central part of Bailing Province and attack the five households of Xixia, Gu, Sang, Zhu, and Shaji, while blocking the support from other families in the south. The Hua family's coalition forces are Directly raise troops to attack Jincheng, the main city of the Hulan family." Yang Zheng quickly pointed at the map.
Looking at the positions of these families, Wu Gen's face turned cold, "Although these five families are located in the south of the province, they are closer to the central part. For example, the Shaji family is almost to the west of the province. The Hua family didn't even let me The army attacks Haig's house in the south."
"Yes, I guess Hua Yanlin was afraid that we would get involved in Zuoheng Road, so he made such an arrangement." Yang Zhengzi knew Wu Gen's thoughts. In fact, before sending troops, the top brass of the Fearless Army had discussed it and knew that the other party wanted to use him His hands messed up the situation in the province, but he didn't want the Fearless Army to completely control Hengmen Port, so he decided on such a strategy.
"How many people are our army going to send?" Wu Gen looked at the map coldly, constantly calculating the distance between the various families.
"Our army is going to leave 20,000 rear troops in the mountains, and use the remaining 80,000 troops to attack Xia Xijia, which is closest to Liangzhe Mountain first." Yang Zheng held a long pole and gestured on the map.
Looking at the winding mountains, the square city, and the swollen sea in the farthest place on the map, Wu Gen thought for a long time and suddenly turned around.
He said, "In this battle, we are facing a strong enemy and there is no need to stay behind. The 100,000 men of the Fearless Army all went out. Except for the 10,000 men left by the rear army in front of the intersection of Liangzhe Mountain in the west, the rest all went out to fight.
However, the direction of attack needs to be adjusted. The Xiaxia, Gu, and Sang families are still the targets of this battle. The Zhu and Shaji families in the west are abandoned, and the Heige, Qiyan, and Chagan families in the south are added. In addition to the Xiajia family near Liangzhe Mountain, which must be completely wiped out to clear our way forward, the other Gu, Sang, Zhu, Qiyan, etc. families must be attacked and cannot be broken, as long as they tie down the opponent's troops. As for the Haige family, they must be exterminated so that there will no longer be a big force on Zuoheng Road.
In this battle, the front army and the middle army feigned an attack to the west and south, while the remaining troops of the left and right armies and the rear army went south with all their strength, clearing out the blocking enemies along the way, and the Haig family was determined to be wiped out. "
Yang Zheng followed Wu Gen's words and looked at the map. If the Fearless Army fought according to Wu Gen's ideas, it would almost form a line along the border of Bailing Province, extending from Liangzhe Mountain to Zuoheng Road. There are many families entrenched along this road. If anyone cuts off the fearless army's advance route, they will inevitably fall into
A situation of no food and no help.
"Captain, isn't this too risky? The Bailing Province is different from the Iron Shou. I have a righteous cause, so it is easier to attack various families. Especially the lower-level herdsmen will not be too oriented toward their own family. . But the Bailing Province is different. Our army is a foreign traitor, and everyone from top to bottom wants to stop me from outside the country. I am afraid that if the Huajia attack is unfavorable, our army will be in danger." Yang Zheng suggested worriedly.
Wu Gen walked around the hall several times with his hands behind his back, clenching and unclenching his fists. After a long time, Fang Zheng said: "There is no risk in marching or fighting, Zuo
Heng Road must be captured as soon as possible, otherwise I am afraid of changes. Besides, I didn't intend to capture these families along the way, I was just passing by. I don't think they would fight to the death. In addition, has the road to the south been opened? "
"Since the area around Baishan has been settled, it has become much easier to move forward. Lu Qing and Meng Shuo are leading people to make urgent repairs." Yang Zheng didn't know why and looked at Wu Gen with a puzzled look.
"More troops will be sent for emergency repairs, and they must be done quickly." Wu Gen waved his hand heavily, grabbed the long pole in Yang Zheng's hand, and drew a line on the map on the wall. "If the war goes unfavorably and the escape route is blocked, , our army marched directly eastward to Shule Province, where Xianyujia’s defense is not tight. If we walk faster, we can avoid his troops and return to Liangzhe Mountain along the southern road.”
Yang Zheng carefully considered the road drawn by Wu Gen, calculated the journey time, and nodded heavily, "This is also a road back to the mountain. Although it is a little farther, it is better than being safe." Suddenly Yang Zheng frowned, "But our army has opened the road, and the troops from those two provinces can also attack Liangzhe Mountain along the way. This is so good."
Wu Gen smiled slightly, stood on tiptoe and looked at the map carefully, "I plan to set up male passes on the west and south roads and station heavy troops. If the enemy wants to break into Liangzhe Mountain, these male passes alone will be enough to consume most of them. Troops. Cong Yue and the others are fighting in the front, while I will be building the city, building roads, and growing crops in the rear."
"The whole army is out, the leader of the village, you don't follow us and send out troops?" Yang Zheng stared at Wu Gen in surprise. For the Fearless Army, all their fortunes were staked in the current battle. As the supreme commander, Wu Gen Not even participating, no
Don't worry too much.
"These war matters will be left to Cong Yue and Baoxiang from now on. I will go to war less and less in the future. Don't worry, with their courage and resourcefulness, nothing will go wrong." Wu Gen looked relaxed. , sitting back in his seat with his hands behind his back.
Yang Zheng was a little dumbfounded. This was because Wu Gen was unparalleled in power among the fearless army, so he felt free to send all his troops out and defend the territory with a bunch of old and weak men. If it were anyone else, how would they dare to hand over their wealth and life to others. It could be seen that Wu Gen was not joking, and Yang Zheng couldn't persuade him any more.
"By the way, there's one more thing. Ji Ye sent Meng Zhuo to Liangzhe Mountain. This man clamored to see you and Ning Yuxi." Yang Zheng patted his head. He came in a hurry, but he didn't care about this matter. forget.
"Meng Zhuo?" Wu Gen also had a headache after hearing about this man. He was capricious and unjust, and could even give away his own brother and wife. It was really disgusting. But after all, Meng Shun and others are serving in the Fearless Army. If they are not handled properly, they may break people's hearts.
"Should we give him to Meng Shuo or Meng Shun and let them handle it? After all, they are a family and they hate him deeply." Seeing Wu Gen's troubled expression, Yang Zheng asked tentatively.
"No need, just kill him. I don't want to see him either." Wu Gen sighed, pondered for a moment and said helplessly, "If you leave it to Meng Shun and the others, wouldn't it make them bear the bad reputation of killing relatives? It's me who does such evil things. Come and do it. After the person dies, just inform Meng Shun and the others."
Yang Zheng smiled slightly and gave Wu Gen a thumbs up in his heart, "I'll do it right away."
"By the way, in two days you will send someone to
Zuoheng Road went to look for Huansha Nu and brought back Mo Zhibi. "Looking at Yang Zheng's excited expression, Wu Gen knew that he liked to do these things.
Besides, Yang Zheng valued Ning Yuxi very much and didn't want Meng Zhuo to upset her. Wu Gen originally thought that he was coveting her beauty, but over the past few days, Yang Zheng had only allowed her to participate more in the affairs of Baishuitai, without doing much. It seemed that he simply admired this person's ability to do things.
"Okay, this guy is quite clever.
It's okay to bring it back. Another thing is that Baishuitai found Lu Lie's whereabouts. Yang Zheng readily agreed, but then brought up another matter.
"Where have you been, Bu Kuan?" Wu Gen suddenly straightened up, his expression serious.
"Lu Lie defected to the Dengtian Palace. It is said that an elder admired him and took him into his family. As for Bu Kuan, we also found some clues. But the leader of the village, even if this person wants to join our fearless army, because there are many people in the army who have original motives. The Lu family cannot be reused at the moment." Yang Zheng replied seriously, staring at Wu Gen.
"It's probably because of Gao Jing, Lu Qing and the others. That's what you reminded me. As long as Lu Lie doesn't die, these people will know that Bu Kuan betrayed the Lu family. Forget it, let's give it some time. Maybe they can let go of the past. It's a grudge." Wu Gen only felt pain in his back teeth. He really wanted to recruit Bu Kuan into the army to make up for the lack of high-level combat power.
But Bu Kuan is not like Gu Miao and others. He has led the army for many years and has a high level of cultivation. He is not suitable for any army. He can only be suppressed by being thrown into Shui Congyue, but this is not the case for Shui Congyue. Cause trouble?
After the two men reached an agreement in the palace, Wu Gen's military order was quickly conveyed, so Liangzhe Mountain
There was a sudden uproar in the middle, and all the troops and horses headed westward one after another.
For a time, there was smoke and dust billowing everywhere, and the cavalry and the convoys transporting grain and grass were crowded on the not wide road, meandering away to the west.
Wu Gen did not follow the army, but rode the holly bird and strolled back and forth in Dengyun, Yingzhu and other cities to appease the people in the city. He even ran to Lu Qing's road-building army in the south and spent a day building roads with these servants and civilians.
With Wu Gen's appearance, all the rumors in the mountains came to an abrupt end. Although the army went out to fight, everything was very peaceful. With the village master here, there is nothing to be afraid of.
When people gradually calmed down, Wu Gen simply led the bridge team to the end of the road heading west to Bailing Province, preparing to send the army out of the mountain here. Shui Congyue had already sent Ha Ying here to guard the intersection to prevent the Xia Tian family on the opposite side from sending troops to block it.
This is the exit of a valley, with towering mountains on both sides, and only a narrow road in the middle is accessible. Although people have been sent to smooth the road, due to the many rocks on both sides, only two vehicles can pass at the same time.
Standing at the mouth of this nameless valley, Wu Gen looked up and down at the surrounding mountains.
"Fortress leader, we want to build a city here." Ha Ying smiled and came over. He had been working under Shui Congyue since he left Lingyun Eight Cavalry. Although he and Wu Gen rarely saw each other on weekdays, he was brought out by one hand after all. He is not as afraid of Wu Gen as those newcomers.
"Yes, I am planning to build a city here. The city must be large enough to withstand the attack of a hundred thousand troops." Wu Gen pulled the bridge attendant who was looking down at the tools in his hands over, "Old Bridge , whether this place can be built into a strong city and a dangerous pass, and whether it can be controlled
It's all on you. "
Qiao Ban looked reluctant. He was building a shuttle, but Wu Gen forced him to come over. Nowadays, Liangzhe Mountain is becoming more and more stable, with abundant manpower, and with the addition of spiritual jade veins, the required spiritual jade is no longer in short supply. The shuttles are being built faster and faster. Currently, the Volunteer Falcon Army has fifty shuttles on the line.
"What are you going to call this dangerous pass?" Ha Ying asked again.
Wu Gen thought for a while and looked at the rolling hills to the west and the faint river in the distance. He suddenly felt heroic and said, "From now on, our army will come out of the mountain and suppress everyone with force. Let's call it Wuchuan Pass."
"Wuchuan Pass." Ha Ying read a few words in succession, and suddenly his face was overjoyed, "What a good name. With this pass, I have no worries on the road to Shanxi, and I can compete with those rats for the world."
