"Military Prime Minister, the results are out." Xiao Qi reported to Han Qingzhu excitedly, "According to the military report from Snow Wind Castle, three hundred powerful men will be used to counter three hundred barbarian prisoners of war. The battle formation The heroic spirit Zhao Zilong showed his power and wiped out all the barbarian troops, with only thirty-two people slightly injured."
"According to the military exercise department's deductions, three hundred powerful men are enough to deal with three times the enemy."
"According to observation, Zhao Zilong Yingling has the following characteristics."
"One: Only after charging into the formation and at the moment of confrontation with the enemy can you show your power."
"Second: Every mighty man will be protected by a Zhao Yun Yingling spirit, which can withstand attacks that are a level higher than the mighty man himself."
"Third, protracted battle. In the military report of Snow Wind Castle, General Zhong entered and exited seven times before the heroic spirit dissipated. The battle arranged by the last general did not have so many back and forth. He only charged into the formation three times and had completely destroyed the opponent. However, After the battle, the heroic spirits continued for nearly half an hour before dispersing."
"In terms of individual killing of generals, Zhao Yun is not as good as Guan Yu. But in terms of guarding and rushing into formation, Zhao Yun, combined with powerful men, can be called the number one military formation at present."
"Besides..." A strange look suddenly appeared on Xiao Qi's face, but he hesitated to speak.
Han Qingzhu, who was already elated, slapped the table: "Hurry up and say it, you are hesitating. You are a scholar in the military middle school, be careful, I will punish you!"
Xiao Qi said quickly: "This is just a guess by the general. The general observed the battle and found that the barbarian prisoners of war severely injured our mighty men several times, but in the end they were deflected and became minor injuries."
"If it happens once, that's it, but it happens every time."
"The military report also mentioned that General Zhong defeated 300 against 700, and no one under his banner died."
"The general will suspect that this Zhao Yun shadow has a bit of luck, which can turn fatal blows into serious injuries, turn serious injuries into light injuries, and make light injuries invisible."
Han Qingzhu's face twitched slightly, this... what is this?
After serving as military minister for many years, I felt happiness for the first time.
I, Han Qingzhu, will one day be rich with the cards in my hand?
Suddenly, Han Qingzhu slammed the table.
"Call me the order, the supply of powerful men who understand Zhao Yun's charm will be restored to normal... No, it will be increased by another 50% on the normal basis."
"Publish the message to all powerful families and increase the cultivation of powerful people. Whenever a powerful person understands the charm of Zhao Yun, the family record of meritorious deeds will change!"
"Here!"
Xiao Qi took the order and walked out, but was stopped by Han Qingzhu again.
"Wait a moment!"
Xiao Qi turned around and looked at Han Qingzhu doubtfully: "Any other instructions from the Minister of War?"
"Um...check where Chen Luo is?"
"Guan Yu and Zhao Yun have come out, where is Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide?"
"Don't think that leaving the capital is just a holiday."
"The soldiers on the front line are all waiting for him to write a book!"
"After entering the Northern Territory, send me someone to escort him to Dongcang City. Don't waste a moment!"
Xiao Qi immediately looked serious: "Here!"
Turning around, Xiao Qi ran out of the meeting hall quickly.
…
Yang Nanzhong got off the galloping horse, stepped on the snow that had been flattened, casually picked up a sledgehammer from the ground that seemed to be usable, and walked towards the barbarian lying on the ground.
The barbarian on the ground had a broken leg, and there was a trace of unruliness on his ugly face, staring at the young man walking towards him.
"Human race, sooner or later you will be defeated by our barbarians..."
Before he finished speaking, Yang Nanzhong hit him hard on the face, and his head suddenly shattered like a fruit that fell to the ground, with blood splattering everywhere.
It is not difficult to kill a barbarian who has no Qi and blood to protect his body.
Yang Nanzhong looked around. There were corpses all over the ground, including barbarians and human beings. The comrades standing now were looking for those of the same tribe who were still alive, and to give those barbarians a last-ditch blow.
Yang Nanzhong breathed a long sigh of relief and sat down directly on the hammer.
A foot away from him lay a human body with a hideous face. Yang Nanzhong knew him as a polite Confucian scholar. At the age of 27 or 28, he had learned the art of writing and was considered a good scholar. A day ago, he was blushing and asked if he could give him a wife. He said that there are three kinds of unfilial piety, the worst is not having children, and people don't know when they will die.
Yang Nanzhong agreed and planned to find a maid to marry him when he returned. There is no intention of dismissing them. The maids in the Yang Mansion are all orphans of loyal soldiers, and their status is no worse than that of soldiers.
But such a gentle scholar had just bitten through a seriously injured barbarian with his teeth and swallowed the flesh into his stomach.
"What a bastard!" Yang Nanzhong stood up, took off a purse from his waist, walked a few steps, stuffed it into the corpse's hand, and sat down next to him.
"My sister embroidered it herself, and it contains a peace charm. I can't help it. This is the only thing on my body that is related to women, so I'm giving you an advantage."
"Major General, the battlefield has been cleared." A soldier limped forward and cupped his hands.
"Okay, let's gather the bodies of our brothers and burn them all!"
"Yes!" The soldier nodded. In fact, the corpses had already been laid out one by one, except for the one next to Yang Nanzhong. The soldier was also a deft man. He stepped forward and pulled the body, then carried the body on his back. He walked to the place where the body was burned and put it down.
"Brothers, let's go..." the soldier shouted, and a low chanting voice sounded.
"Leave the original grass,"
"One year old and another old and prosperous."
"Wildfire never burns out,"
"The spring breeze blows and gives birth again."
Flames ignited, fueled by the azure aura of righteousness, and burned blazingly on the corpse, like green grass sprouting out of the ground again.
People have been at the border for a long time, and life and death are ordinary things.
The compatriots were sent away with flames, and everyone's face was filled with a sense of relief. After all, they survived.
"Major General, are you going to be promoted to Cavalry Commander when you go back this time?" A veteran with missing teeth asked with a smile, "I have been a team leader for three years, can you also mention it to me and be a tooth?" , continue to follow the Major General?"
"Then you can't talk to me. After I go back this time, I won't be in Tianbo City." Yang Nanzhong patted the other party's shoulder. Don't look at the other party's current appearance. When he first came to Lanzhou to join the army three years ago, he was still Jieyuan of a state.
"Major General, are you leaving Tianbo City?" A group of veterans frowned slightly, "Where are you going? We will follow."
"You can't follow me, I'm going to Dongcang!"
"Dongcang?" The toothless Jie Yuan thought for a while and said, "What are you doing in that place where birds don't shit? Not to mention the supply difficulties, you can't even fight a serious battle, and you can't gain any military exploits. ah!"
"Yes, yes!" Other veterans also nodded.
Yang Nanzhong glanced at everyone with contempt: "A bunch of soldiers and bastards, does Wan Anbo and Chen Luo know?"
"My brother!"
"He is going to Dongcang City. Do you think your Major General is the kind of person who doesn't help his brother when he is in trouble?"
"So, I resigned from the military position and planned to go to Dongcang City to lend a hand and do a favor and fulfill my brotherly duty."
Several veterans looked at each other and saw incredible expressions in each other's eyes.
"Major General, is the Wan Anbo and Chen Luo you are talking about the same Chen Luo who wrote "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?"
"Yes, yes, is it Chen Luo who allows ordinary people to practice martial arts and fight barbarians with us?"
"He also made people condense the heroic spirits of the battle array, which is so fierce!"
Yang Nanzhong waved his hand: "Hey, as the saying goes, a good man has three gangs. He is living well in Zhongjing. When he arrives in the Northern Territory, should I go and take care of him? After all, they are all good brothers. Wait, when will I be free? Ask him to write a manuscript for each of you, and I will ensure that after reading it, you will also have the charm of a heroic spirit."
"That's great!" A group of veterans smiled happily. They can't resign from the military, that would be considered a deserter. They had also heard some rumors in the military about the "Shenjiang Camp", which was called greedy. Now that they knew that their young general had such a close relationship with Wan Anbo, why would they still be jealous of others in the future?
For a time, everyone's atmosphere became more lively.
Nearly two hours later, Yang Nanzhong led his people back to Tianbo City.
Yang Nanzhong listened to everyone's praise with a smile, feeling a little uneasy in his heart: Dad should have made an agreement with Wan Anbo, right?
…
When the boat reached the shore, Chen Luo stretched out his hand to help Yun Siyao and Luo Hongnu off the boat, looking curiously at this city known as the Pearl of the North.
This is Leya City, the northern terminus of the Ten Thousand Miles Grand Canal. Thousands of sails gather, hundreds of boats compete for the water, it is prosperous and crowded, and it does not look like a city in the northern region.
Even Luo Hongnu was stunned and murmured: "This is the Northern Territory, it's almost as good as Zhongjing."
Yun Siyao smiled softly and explained: "Sixty-seven out of ten supplies from the Northern Territory are gathered here in Leyacheng. It can be said to be the gathering place for the Northern Territory, so it is naturally very prosperous."
"But looking at the entire Northern Territory, only Leyacheng and Zhanman City in Suzhou can see such prosperity."
Having said this, Yun Siyuan smiled narrowly and looked at Chen Luo: "If you, junior brother, can solve the shipping problem, maybe Dongcang City will not be worse than Leya City."
"Just take it step by step." Chen Luo was full of confidence.
Yun Siyao nodded: "Let's go north from Leyacheng to Tianbo City, the prefecture town of Lanzhou, and then we can take the northeast route to Dongcang."
Chen Luo was about to agree when suddenly his ears twitched and he looked in one direction. Yun Siyao also frowned slightly and looked in the same direction as Chen Luo.
There, a caravan was loading herbs into the car. The shopkeeper said to the side: "Dongcang City was just attacked by wild beasts. Prepare more detoxifying herbs..."
"Don't delay on the way, they are all poor people..."
