He was facing the wind, and strands of freezing air flowing from the scale armor runes drifted behind him, like long tail feathers.
Tang Mei first saw the man's scales clearly, and then saw the man's face, and couldn't help but startled slightly, "It's you?"
"I didn't expect it to be you either."
When all the petals on the originally bright wild flowers withered and withered, the flower branches in the general's hands were also shattered like frost and drifted from his fingers. He and Qianqi behind him stopped. He slowly raised his head and looked at Tang Mo with a blank expression. He said: "Seventeen battles took place last night, Yangshan County was not moved, and the battles were all concentrated in the middle section of Yinshan Mountain to the northern section of Yinshan Mountain. The deepest one is the vanguard army under Wei Wujiu's Commander Xiao Yan, the number is Between 3,000 and 5,000, the Yutian Pass was breached, and General Che Chi died in battle."
"In addition, the Shilin area was lost. The granary in Chenjiazhai was taken."
"The army from Sima Cuo's side has entered our border and has marched for 20 miles. The army is about 200,000."
"Wei Wujiu himself appeared in the river valley not far from Yutianguan. It is estimated that he intends to seize the Luhezi meadow and control the wild horses and the tribes in that area."
"..."
The general didn't care about Tang Mo's expression, and even said a lot, but he was reporting the latest military situation.
It may take dozens of days for these news to reach Changling and Yanqi before it becomes known to the world. The transmission of news is always separated by a distance of time. While the outside world is still waiting for who will attack first, in fact, the war between the Great Qin Dynasty and the Great Chu Dynasty has quietly begun.
After the general finished stating the military situation, he stopped talking and just looked at Tang Mo silently.
Tang Mo was not in a hurry, he thought for a moment, then looked at the general, and said very simply: "And then?"
"You are the person who came to be the commander-in-chief with the commander-in-chief seal. I have also finished reporting the military situation, and the commander-in-chief position is also vacant, but it depends on whether you can sit in the commander-in-chief position." The general looked at Tang Mo, indifferently. Said: "Many people don't believe you."
Listening to this sentence, the six riders in front of and behind Tang Mo felt a little cold, but Tang Mo smiled lightly, "Xifenghe, many people don't believe me, but you still believe me, otherwise Now that you know my real whereabouts, you won't be the ones who brought these people here, but directly arrange a killing scheme against us to wipe us out as soon as possible."
"Washing the river?"
Hearing this name, the six riders before and after Tang Mei all looked surprised and shocked.
Xifenghe is one of the most important generals in the northern border. Naturally, they have all heard of him, but what really shocked them at this time is that strictly speaking, this Xifenghe used to be Tang Mei's subordinates, and they were six of them. person's boss.
It's just that when the six of them followed Tang Mei one after another, Xifenghe had already been demoted to the frontier army.
Xi Fenghe looked at the faint smile on Tang Mo's face, did not answer immediately, nodded after a moment of silence: "You are right, although I did not get along with you in the early years and was banished by you, but I respect you There is no dispute about the capabilities of the army."
Tang Mo restrained his smile, looked at him, and said: "I have no objection to your ability to command the army, but if you use the army under my subordinates, you need to follow my military orders and rules completely. After I took the commander-in-chief position this time The same is true. Not only you, even those who are higher than you must follow my military orders and rules."
"Strictly speaking, I have been General Li Mu's subordinate since then. I know more about General Li Mu. I believe there will be no problem with his vision, but the position of the commander-in-chief of the entire army is too important. You Dying after sitting in that position has completely different meaning to the battle situation than dying now." Xi Fenghe met his gaze and said coldly: "You must at least show the ability to live well."
"It's a pity that a friend is not an enemy, and a knife cannot be sharpened with blood."
"Tang Zhefeng, anyway, on the battlefield, are you afraid that you don't have flesh and blood to sharpen your sword?"
When the lingering sound of Xifenghe's voice was still lingering in the air, the practitioner behind Tang Mei who liked to talk to himself said a few more words.
This time Xi Fenghe and Qianqi behind him heard his conversation clearly, and many people's expressions changed slightly.
At this moment, a powerful talisman flowed from Xifenghe's fingertips.
There were a lot of silky gray strong zhenqi blooming in the air, but there were many fine flying debris flying up along these gray lines and falling towards Xifenghe's fingertips.
As if turning back time, the flower that had withered and disappeared at his fingertips reappeared, and all the frozen air in the scales on his body poured into the flower, as if it had injected new life.
The originally withered flower turned into a crystal gray ice flower.
Sensing the powerful aura rippling from this ice flower, even Tang Zhefeng, who had been saying that he would sharpen his knife with blood, looked serious, and the cloth bag behind him burst silently.
There is nothing else in the very large cloth bag, only a knife, a knife that looks a bit too big.
The knife doesn't even have a sharp edge, like one of the door panels that some shops take off when they open, and it has a really old feel to it.
"I know you should be the clumsy sword in the legend." Xi Fenghe glanced at Tang Zhefeng, and his eyes converged on Tang Mei's face again, "I didn't expect you to have such a master under your seat, but I don't want him to be like this." Come pick me this flower with a knife, I want to see you pick it."
"It's not fair."
A rider in front of Tang Mei said coldly, "You are wearing the Nirvana Snake Scale Armor, a talisman used by the late emperor, and you borrowed its power."
Xi Fenghe gave him a mocking look, but did not respond.
But everyone understood what he meant.
Where is fairness on the battlefield? Those who may appear in front of Tang Mei to assassinate him will never pursue fairness in shooting, and may carry deadlier and more powerful talismans on their bodies.
Tang Zhefeng took a long breath and touched the back of the knife with his backhand, but his body shrank back.
Tang Mei raised his head and said very simply, "I'll take it."
Xi Fenghe didn't talk nonsense, and let go of Nianhua's fingers.
There was a muffled bang, like a heavenly gate opening.
The vitality of heaven and earth moving like mountains from all directions at a terrifying speed gathered the vitality in the ice flower flying out of Xifenghe's hand, and instantly gathered and formed above Tang Mei's head.
A gray beam of light, like the gaze of a giant in the sea of stars, fell towards Tang Mei's body instantly.
Tang Mo dismounted.
When his feet landed on the ground, the soil on the entire ground waved like ripples expanding outward.
All the horses had no time to be afraid, because the speed at this moment exceeded the limit of their reaction.
Tang Mei's palms turned upwards. The palm prints on his palm lit up.
It was strange that ordinary people's palms had several clear palm lines, but his palms had only one clear palm line.
The two bright palm lines seemed to be separated from his palm, flying up like two bolts of lightning, colliding with the falling gray beam of light in the sky.
The air smelled of burning.
There was no sound, and the two bolts of lightning and the gray beam of light disappeared at the same time, and a circle of air was squeezed by a powerful force into various crystal patterns, spreading in the sky.
Then countless crystal clear ice beads fell from the sky, reflecting the sunlight, illuminating this wasteland with colorful colors.
At that moment, the chi chi sound continued to explode, and all the ice beads bloomed into streaks of gray freezing air, like countless flowers blooming in the air.
Xifenghe got off his horse.
He lowered his head in silence, bowed, and saluted Tang Mo.
Many years ago, Tang Mo was stronger than him, and many years later, he became very powerful, but Tang Mo was still stronger than him.
His salute represents the recognition of Tang Mo's strength.
Just being alone is not enough for many people.
"I want to see if there is anyone besides General Tang himself and Zhuo Dao."
A domineering voice sounded from Qianqi behind Xifenghe: "Who will receive my sword?"
When the voice sounded, a sword light had already flowed out.
This sword light is extremely domineering, like a volcano erupting suddenly.
Everyone only felt that it was dazzling and hot, and that it was very terrifying, but it was difficult for them to see this sword clearly, and they couldn't see where the killing intent of this sword finally converged.
