…
The night is as cold as water. The night in the Southern Mountains is obviously colder than that of the Great Xia Dynasty. The white frost solidifies the frost water at night, making the entire Southern Territory seem to be covered with a misty white gauze. ∮∮，
Flamecrow tribe.
The large tribe closest to Daxia in the Southern Territory is also an important trading area between the Southern Territory and Daxia. It occupies countless areas and controls a total of eighteen small tribes.
In the Yancrow tribe, a mountain beast weighing a hundred kilograms was roasting on a huge bonfire. Drops of oil kept falling on the flames, making a sizzling sound.
Around the bonfire, there were no less than twenty young men wearing fancy clothes or armor. The leader was wearing exquisite green armor and holding a jade flute in his hand.
It was Wu Feng.
"Master Wu, congratulations!" A young talented man took a bite of meat and shouted loudly to Wu Feng while holding a wooden cup.
"It's too early to talk about congratulations now." Wu Feng chuckled and shook his head.
"Hahaha... Mr. Wu is too humble. We have now occupied the two major tribes of Yancrow and Shizun. The number of soldiers under our command has reached 20,000, accounting for 30% of the total reference number. We have already ranked first in the martial arts test. It truly belongs to Mr. Wu."
"Yes! Mr. Wu, why do you need to be so modest?"
"Although we were defeated by Mr. Wu, we are still convinced. If Mr. Wu can successfully win the first place in the martial arts test, it will be a good thing for us."
"Yes, as long as Mr. Wu takes first place, my ranking will naturally not be lower."
When the talented people heard this, they all stood up one after another, holding up the wooden cups in their hands and expressing their inner thoughts to Wu Feng.
Wu Feng smiled again. Looking at the stars in the night sky, he held the jade flute tightly in his hand: "What a pity, I lost the literary test!"
"It's a pity to take the literary test, but the top three in the literary test this time are not ideal now." A talented man immediately stood up and advised.
"Yes. Nangong Hao is still huddled in his Hanyuan tribe. From the beginning of the exam to now, the number of soldiers in his hands is still only two thousand, without any progress. Although Yan Xiu now has six thousand soldiers, there is no Capturing any tribe will not pose a threat to Mr. Wu. As for Fang Zhengzheng... "
"Hahaha... Can you not mention him?"
"That's right, no one is here. Why talk about winning the ranking, hahaha..."
The other talents also laughed at the end, toasting to celebrate together, their faces flushed, and their eyes full of ridicule.
"As long as the martial arts test is not over for one day, we must not relax for a day. It will start tomorrow. We will step up our attack on the Thunder Lion Tribe!" Wu Feng withdrew his eyes after hearing this. A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Okay, take down the Thunder Lion in one fell swoop!"
…
Early the next morning.
The morning frost had condensed, and when the wind blew, it sent out bursts of chill. In a huge military camp in the southern region, a group of sergeants were patrolling the camp despite the cold.
In dark skin. Exudes a touch of heat.
Within an ordinary military account.
Fang Zhengzheng stretched himself, slowly got up from the bed, looked around the military account, and decided to go out and try out the military camp life in the Southern Territory and fill his stomach.
Just walked to the door of the military tent. Two spears were placed in front of him.
"No going out!"
"Do you have to take care of your meals?" Fang Zhengzheng looked at the two soldiers standing in front of him and was a little confused. Hasn't he already perfectly integrated into the Southern Territory Military Camp
"Stop, the princess has an order, please ask Fang Zheng to come to the camp for questioning!" At this moment, a leading sergeant with a piece of animal skin on his shoulder came over, and behind him, there were nearly a hundred soldiers wearing rattan armor.
"Yes!" When the two soldiers saw the leading sergeant, they immediately put their spears back.
Fang Zhengzheng frowned slightly. Although he didn't know what happened, judging from the situation in front of him, it didn't seem to be a good thing.
but…
They come, the security.
He didn't have any other better way now. Who allowed him to accidentally enter the main army's Princess Shanyu barracks? It can only be said that it was time and fate.
…
During the camp, Princess Shan Yu was still lying on the golden animal skin, but her animal skin clothes had been changed into a purple leather outfit with scales.
A faint brilliance flows on the scales, and together with her wheat-colored skin, it reveals a certain gorgeous nobility in the wildness.
When Fang Zhengzheng walked in, he happened to see this scene.
However, he didn't say much, because there were nearly twenty generals wearing thick rattan armor standing on both sides of the camp, all with serious faces.
To interrogate prisoners
Fang Zhengzheng felt the weirdness in the atmosphere and obediently closed his mouth.
"Why don't you kneel down when you see the princess?" A general looked at Fang Zhengzheng, with a trace of anger flashing on his face.
"Sigh... I don't care about these red tapes and etiquette, even if they can be avoided. What are you worrying about here?" Fang Zhengzheng curled his lips and gave the other party a disdainful look.
"Bold! Since you have betrayed your country and sought glory, you now belong to our Southern Territory. You should abide by the rules of our Southern Territory. How can you let your temper run wild..."
"Okay, Fang Zhengyi, I have a question for you." Princess Shanyu sat up at this time, waved her hand to the general who was about to continue talking, and looked at Fang Zhengyi with her dark eyes.
"Princess, please!" Fang Zhengzheng replied immediately.
"There are two voices that often echo in my princess' ears. I want to hear your opinion. The first voice is that although the southern region is vast and rich in resources, there are many mountains and forests, and ferocious beasts are everywhere. Moreover, donations must be made every year according to regulations. It is very unfair to give tens of thousands of horses to Daxia, and most importantly, to serve as Daxia's natural barrier against the demons." Princess Shan Yu said while looking closely into Fang Zhengyi's eyes.
"It's really unfair!" Fang Zhengzheng nodded without thinking.
"Well, the second voice is that although our Southern Territory donated ten thousand horses to Daxia, Daxia provided food in exchange. Our Southern Territory did serve as a natural barrier for Daxia. But Daxia sent People teach the "Tao Canon" to enrich my foundation in the Southern Region, so it is very fair!" Princess Shan Yu continued when she saw Fang Zhengzheng nodding.
"Yes, very fair!" Fang Zhengzheng nodded again.
"..." Princess Shanyu opened her mouth. Looking at Fang Zhengzheng's frank expression, he suddenly didn't know what to say.
When the more than 20 generals on both sides heard this, they all shook their heads. Can this guy have any opinion? It's just nonsense.
"Princess, please continue." Fang Zhengzheng waited for a while and found that Princess Shanyu didn't speak, so he also urged.
"What to continue? This princess has finished asking!"
"Oh, that's it. It's okay. I'll leave first." Fang Zhengzheng finished speaking. Then he turned around and walked directly outside the camp.
"Stop!" a general shouted as he stood up.
"What's wrong?" Fang Zhengzheng turned his head in confusion.
"The princess asked you something, why didn't you answer it?"
"I answered, you were dreaming just now, didn't you hear?"
"You...you also call that answer?"
"Then you teach me how to respond."
"The princess is asking you!"
"Yes, the princess is indeed asking about me, and I have already answered. If there is nothing else, I will leave first." Fang Zhengzheng turned around again.
"..." The twenty generals were immediately speechless again.
"Fang Zhengzheng. This princess wants you to give an answer of one of two choices." At this moment, Princess Shan Yu finally spoke again.
"Princess. I don't understand this kind of state affairs. You can ask them. They are all generals. Why are you asking me a soldier?" Fang Zhengzheng looked depressed.
"Fang Zhengyi, this princess is asking you very seriously!"
"I answered it very seriously."
"Come here, drag me down and chop him down!"
"Wait a minute. I thought about it, and there are some flaws in my answer just now. I can add a few more points." Fang Zhengzheng immediately put on a bright smile.
"Really? But this princess thinks there's nothing wrong with it!"
"There's definitely something wrong!"
"You?"
"..." Fang Zhengzheng was stunned for a moment, and finally looked directly at Princess Shan Yu who was sitting up. From Princess Shan Yu's eyes. He saw a different expression from yesterday. If yesterday's Princess Shanyu was still a laughing woman, then today's Princess Shanyu obviously seemed to have changed into a wise coach.
Damn, you actually set a trap for me
Fortunately I am resourceful.
"Princess, it's not that I don't want to answer this question, but no matter how I answer, the consequences will be death!" Fang Zhengzheng finally showed a wry smile.
"Why do you say that?" When Princess Shanyu heard Fang Zhengzheng's words, a faint smile appeared on her lips. Obviously, there was not much surprise.
"The princess just said that you heard two voices in your ears. If I become one of the voices, then the other voice will naturally kill me. After all, I am just a soldier with no power. , I was bullied and insulted in this military camp, and I...I didn't even dare to retaliate!" Fang Zhengzheng became more and more sad as he spoke, almost shedding a few tears.
"Stop pretending to be pitiful here, just say it directly, and you will answer no matter what you want." Princess Shanyu didn't take Fang Zhengyi's advice at all, and waved her hand directly.
"If you can make me a mighty general and give me a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, I think that will be enough!"
"Do you think it's possible?" Princess Shan Yu looked at Fang Zhengyi with disdain.
"Otherwise, 50,000 yuan can be enough to make do."
"dream!"
"Five thousand is enough, right?"
"Five hundred, no more."
"Thank you, princess!" Fang Zhengzheng gritted his teeth. Damn it, mosquitoes are still flesh no matter how small they are. Five hundred mosquitoes are better than none at all.
"Say it."
"Let me tell a story to the princess."
"story?"
"Yes, once upon a time, two hungry people received a gift from an elder: a fishing rod and a basket of fresh and huge fish... The man who picked the fish eventually starved to death next to the empty fish basket. The other one People rely on fishing rods to fish every day and live a happy and healthy life. The story is over." After Fang Zhengzheng finished speaking, he also closed his mouth.
"What kind of story is this?" A general looked confused when he heard what Fang Zhengzheng said.
"It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach them how to fish," Fang Zhengzheng replied.
"Teaching a man to fish is worse than teaching him to fish?" When the generals heard this, they all recited this sentence silently, and for a while no one spoke again.
Princess Shan Yu also frowned slightly, her dark eyes flashing with a faint brilliance. After a full quarter of an hour, she slowly sighed.
"So, that's your answer?"
"Yes!" Fang Zhengzheng nodded.
Princess Shan Yu fell into silence again, her dark eyes scanning the more than twenty generals on both sides, and waited for another quarter of an hour before she finally spoke again: "Fang Zhengzheng, this princess has a task for you to do. ."
"Can I say no?"
"Can't."
"Yes, the mission of the princess is the meaning of my life. I must fulfill my destiny and swear to the death to fulfill the princess's wishes, even if it means breaking my body to pieces!"
"Don't be wordy, I want you to send a letter to Holy Mountain City!"
"Send a message? To the Holy Mountain City?" Fang Zhengzheng looked at Princess Shanyu and then at the more than 20 generals on both sides, with great doubts in his heart.
Delivering a letter, this kind of thing needs to be handed over to me in front of so many people
and…
The most important thing is that these more than 20 generals seemed to have known it for a long time. When they heard Princess Shanyu's words, none of them objected, and there was no change in their expressions.
"Is there any problem?" Princess Shanyu asked again when she saw that Fang Zhengzheng was silent.
"No problem, it's just... I'm not familiar with the terrain all the way to Holy Mountain City, and there are many ferocious beasts outside. I'm afraid that my strength is too weak, and I might lose the important letter. Then..." Fang Zhengzheng seemed a little embarrassed.
"That's why I promised you just now to give you five hundred soldiers." Princess Shan Yu seemed to have guessed that Fang Zhengyi would say this.
"Five hundred? I'm afraid it's not enough to fill the teeth of a few ferocious beasts, right?" Fang Zhengzheng shook his head again.
"Of course it's not enough if it's an ordinary soldier, but if it's my princess's five hundred silver-horned wolf cavalry, that's enough!" When Princess Shan Yu said this, she also showed a look of confidence on her face.
"Five hundred silver-horned wolf riders?!" Fang Zhengzheng was really shocked this time.
Of course he had seen that thing before.
It was precisely because of the existence of that thing that I was unable to escape capture at that time and was brought directly to Princess Shan Yu, but...
Isn't the Silver Horned Wolf Rider the strongest power of Princess Shan Yu
Three thousand silver-horned wolf cavalry, give yourself five hundred
This is simply more exaggerated than winning five million in the lottery in your previous life, right? And, most importantly, why were the more than 20 generals around them so calm when they heard about the five hundred silver-horned wolf cavalry!
impossible!
As an "outsider", Princess Shanyu gave herself five hundred silver-horned wolf cavalry for free. Is it impossible that no one would object? I can't figure this out no matter how hard I think about it.
It's like a person suddenly comes to you and tells you that the purple energy rising above your head and the seven-star horoscope under your feet are the true destiny of the emperor, and he wants you to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor immediately!
What the hell, who dares to claim that? ! (To be continued.)u
