Phoenix Terrace
Nalan Dingdong looked at the company outside, dazed.
It has been almost two years since he led the army to Eastern Xinjiang. In the past two years, it seems that he has not done anything particularly earth-shattering. But he has already changed the pattern of Eastern Xinjiang. If it wasn't for him, the decline of Mu Mansion would not be so obvious and drastic. In the past two years, not only has he firmly controlled the Phoenix Terrace, but the influence of the Black Banner Army has gradually surpassed that of the Mu Mansion.
Now, there are many people from all walks of life gathered around the Black Banner Army of Fenghuangtai.
Although there are mostly small teams of hundreds or thousands of people, but... this is the human heart.
Jiu Secai, who rushed over earlier, looked at Nalan Dingdong from the side, and always felt that this foreigner who was on the rise was preoccupied. But this kind of worry is not a particularly worrying thing. In fact, if you don't look carefully, you can't tell the difference between Nalan Dingdong and the Han people.
He was wearing armor and an iron helmet.
It was just those eyes that betrayed his blood.
"When will the lord arrive?"
he asks.
Jiu Se Cai replied: "It will arrive in five days at the latest."
"Take a trip to the Ten Mile Gorge?"
Nalan Dingdong asked again.
"probably."
Jiu Se Cai shook his head: "I don't know about military matters. But the nearest route is Shili Gorge, and my lord is in a hurry to come, so I should take that route. Are you worried about the soldiers of the Mu family on the way? Don't worry. Well, that Mu Mansion soldiers didn't dare to do anything. Even if they had the guts, they wouldn't dare to attack the nearly 100,000 cavalry."
Nalan Dingdong shook his head: "I'm not worried about the lord, I'm worried that the lord will not come fast enough."
He pointed to the distance.
Outside the Phoenix Terrace, there is a large camp of the Black Banner Army that stretches for several miles. There are many teams stationed here, including the Red Eyebrow Army, and the camps are intricate. But these teams are all tightly around the Black Banner Army camp. Moreover, Nalan Dingdong has talked with the leaders of these teams many times, and established a unified command banner and horn sound.
The place he pointed to was the Opulu army camp farther away.
Wine, sex and money don't understand.
"You may not be able to see that although the scouts didn't send a message saying that Lehman has arrived, he must have arrived. Although the brigade he brought is at least two or three days away, this person has undoubtedly arrived outside. In the camp of foreigners."
"You can see that?"
Jiu Se Cai asked in surprise.
Nalan Dingdong said: "Look at the rear of the foreign camp."
He handed the clairvoyance to Jiu Se Cai, and after taking it, Jiu Se Cai took a look: "Huh? It seems like you are setting up a tent?"
Through the clairvoyance, one can vaguely see the back of the camp of foreigners, and many people are busy doing something. But because it was too far apart, it was not sure what they were doing. Seeing a lot of people walking around with something like wood, it's more like expanding the camp.
"No."
Nalan Dingdong denied the idea of Jiu Se Cai Cai: "It's definitely not expanding the camp... If I were Lehman, once the army arrived, I wouldn't extend the camp behind the original camp. In that case, the depth of the camp would be too long. Yes. Hundreds of thousands of troops will continue to build blindly, at least ten miles away... Such a depth is definitely not a good thing for mobilizing troops. As soon as his army arrives, they will form a semicircle to encircle and build camps outside. It's an occupancy ... it's much easier to mobilize the camp this way, and it puts a lot of pressure on us."
"What is that doing?"
Jiu Se Cai found that he really knew nothing about the military.
"If nothing else happens, they should be building some siege equipment. But what I don't understand is why they didn't build it when they attacked the city before? From this, it can be inferred that Lyman is coming, and this kind of siege equipment The foreign army before the equipment would not build it at all."
Jiu Se Cai was stunned for a moment: "Will it be awesome?"
Nalan Dingdong glanced at him: "Why don't you go and have a look?"
Jiu Se Cai immediately shook his head: "Don't cheat your companions..."
Nalan Dingdong laughed, and seemed to be in a better mood: "No matter what they built, it looks like a giant, so it will take at least four or five days. During this time, the lord should also arrive. I My duty is to protect the Phoenix Terrace, and to stick to it. As long as the Phoenix Terrace is still there, the foreign team will always have worries.”
"However, it's different this time."
Nalan Dingdong said: "The lord has wiped out all the troops of Hurons and Mox in Malan Mountain, and now the foreign army that has penetrated into the eastern border has been completely wiped out, so... the foreigner's attack is equivalent to starting from scratch, so the attack is inevitable. Extremely violent."
"I see... You mean that if you persist until the lord comes, it has nothing to do with you, right?"
Jiu Se Cai said with a smile.
Nalan Dingdong rolled his eyes at him: "You really can't speak...but yes."
…
…
Lyman glanced at the blue sky outside, and felt that he should really have a good sleep in such weather. Maybe in the days to come, there won't be too many days where I can get a good night's sleep. His subordinates don't seem to understand that one of his goals is to get rid of Xiulunsi, and then go back to stabilize the country.
Judging from the news just received, Hurons' army has been completely wiped out.
There is no reason for Lehmann to stay any longer, and returning directly to China is the most correct choice, isn't it
However, Lehman broke away from the main force and rushed to the frontline army with only a few advisers and trusted generals, and then ordered to build that fearsome siege beast. This kind of thing was only used once when attacking the capital of the Aegean Empire. And it is an unsuccessful thing, once it is destroyed, the soldiers inside will suffer.
Looking at the bewilderment on the faces of his subordinates, Leman couldn't help but shook his head.
He felt a little lonely.
None of his subordinates understood him.
Oh shit
He cursed in his heart with the curse words of the Han people.
Hurons was defeated just like that, and the most skilled fighter among his men was easily defeated by Fang Jie. Lehmann once thought that it might not be so easy even if he defeated Schulence under fair circumstances. Although it seemed that Fang Jie had used some weird tricks, it was just a sign of the strength of the enemy.
Lyman
It has been a long time since I have encountered such a strong opponent.
Rather than going back to China to stabilize the situation, he wanted to stay here and fight that Han man named Fang Jie.
Yes, such a choice may not be very rational.
But such a successful person does not rely on maintaining reason all the time. Reason does make people successful, but sometimes madness makes success even greater. This truth does not make sense, and many people will refute it, but it turns out...it does.
If he was really sane, would he have killed all his brothers in the first place
If he was really sensible, would he encourage the nobles in the country to fight the world with him
Anyone who has achieved great success must have a crazy side in his heart.
He just wanted to see how powerful this formula was.
In the camp where he is now, these soldiers are not his direct army. The Opru Empire army outside the Phoenix Terrace was the remnants of several foreign generals who had been defeated before. After being integrated by Hurons, a general of his subordinates was appointed to station outside the Phoenix Terrace.
In fact, from this point, we can already clearly see the plot of Hurons.
The struggle is so cruel, and human life is worthless.
In order to protect his own interests, Schulence kept killing the young generals whom Lehmann sent to the Eastern Frontier battlefield, and then sent his own men to take over those troops. And Lehman kept sending young generals to die. It's just an act of testing each other's bottom line, but it sends one after another young people who think they can make it to the top of the sky into hell.
Playing with the snuff bottle in his hand, Laiman actually didn't understand why the rich among the Han people liked to play with this kind of thing. He didn't like the smell, but he just wanted to know where the allure of this thing was.
He was paranoid, paranoid to the bone.
The middle-aged general kneeling in front of him was exactly the one sent by Xiulunsi. He has taken over this team for nearly a year, and this year can be summed up in four words of mediocrity. But he completed the arrangement of Hurons very seriously, eliminating all unstable factors in the army.
"Has Hullens ever told you how many people need to be killed?"
Lehman asked softly.
The middle-aged general trembled, how dare he answer
He knew that Hurons had been defeated, and might be dead. Losing his backing, and facing the emperor of this empire again, what else can he do other than tremble
"well… "
Leman sighed: "If you face me calmly, I might not kill you."
He stood up, walked slowly in front of the middle-aged general, and stretched out his hand to press the middle-aged general's head: "Even if you are brave, I can still give you a chance to lead troops to attack Phoenix Terrace. If you If I didn't die on the battlefield, I could even forgive all your sins and give you a new life... But now, you make me have no interest in imagining the future for you."
His fingers began to tighten, and the middle-aged general howled in pain.
It can be seen that blood is coming out from the top of the middle-aged general's head, and Lehman's five fingers have penetrated deeply into the middle-aged general's skull. Blood is continuously oozing from the blood hole, but the blood has not gone Dirty, but flowed upwards along the palm of Lehman, from the sleeves to the chest, and was completely absorbed by the thing hidden in the clothes.
Soon, the middle-aged general was like a deflated ball, leaving only a limp skin.
Lehman took a deep breath, feeling the vitality of life.
"It's better to be young, you are too old."
He walked back to the chair and sat down, and ordered lightly: "Within three days, if the soldiers who built the siege beasts fail to complete the task, all of them will be executed."
…
…
Xiang Qingniu found that Fang Jie had been very silent recently, and rarely came to him for a casual chat like before. In the past, when Fang Jie encountered any difficulties or troubles, he would come to him to chat in the dark, and the two of them kept arguing. Xiang Qingniu knew that Fang Jie needed such a way to decompress himself.
But now, Fang Jie's silence is worrying.
He guessed that maybe Fang Jie's biggest goal was about to start, so he was extremely depressed.
"Guess, when you arrived at the Phoenix Terrace, would Leman have turned his head and left?"
Xiang Qingniu asked Fang for an explanation.
"Won't."
Fang Jie shook his head: "If I were him, I wouldn't leave."
"Why?"
Xiang Qingniu asked: "This is unreasonable."
Fang Jie smiled, but it was not easy at all: "Some people succeed because they are unreasonable."
Xiang Qingniu asked: "Just like you?"
Fang Jie nodded, "Just like me."
