Under the guidance of the flag plaque, Jiang Anyi came to Zhu Jinfeng's commander's tent through layers of checkpoints. The commander's tent was guarded by a sword-holding soldier. After checking the token, the captain who led the team waved his hand and signaled that the soldiers flashed out a road, allowing Jiang Anyi to enter alone, while Huang Zhu and others stood outside and waited.

Zhu Jinfeng was giving orders. Seeing Jiang Anyi entering the bill, he just nodded slightly and did not interrupt his speech. Cao Jinghan waved to Jiang Anyi and Jiang Anyi moved to his side.

"...Station at Hawkya tonight..." Jiang Anyi's eyes fell on Hawkya with Zhu Jinfeng's fingers. As a military senator, Jiang Anyi carefully studied the map of Mobei and knew that Hawkya was about forty miles away from Zhenbei City. There was a water source here. It was originally the garrison of the Mo people's Guo Xi tribe. Because it was very close to Zhenbei Town, Guo Xi tribe attached to Zheng State and became a stronghold of the Zheng army. Zhu Jinfeng, the latter army, sent people to garrison.

Hawkeya is a heavy stronghold for the Zheng army to store grain and grass. In addition to the 20,000 troops of Guo Xi's army, Zhu Jinfeng sent 5,000 troops to set up camp here. Since the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, the desert cavalry has been defeated many times, and Zhu Jinfeng even used the terrain to achieve several small victories.

"...I have sent someone to inform Hawkeya's garrison to prepare. Yan Jiancai, you will lead 10,000 light cavalry to escort? Let's go first." Hearing Yan Jiancai's name, Jiang Anyi's eyes fell on the general who had left Xingnuo. He hadn't seen him for half a year and almost couldn't recognize him. The wind and sunlight made the white and fat round face in my memory turn into a dark square face, showing his firmness and mightyness.

It can be seen that this former general of the Central Army is very appreciated by Zhu Jinfeng, and the first one was sent to him. Zhu Jinfeng said: "Before the troops and horses move, food and grass will come first. General Yan, you have the most responsibility. The road to marching at night is inconvenient. You should be more careful when you send people to boil hot water every ten miles..." Jiang Anyijing listened to Zhu Jinfeng's arrangements. Although he had led troops to fight, he lacked the experience of managing the army. He just talked about military affairs on paper according to the book, and it was rare to have such an opportunity to learn.

The 60,000 army was divided into five teams. The pioneer Yan Jiancai led 10,000 light cavalry to escort. Heavy forward, and there were food, grass, tents, weapons and other items. The number of ox carts transported was as many as 600; half an hour later, the central army was led by Zhu Jinfeng, with 10,000 light cavalry and 5,000 infantry to escort. Heavy weight 200 cars. The left and right army advanced at the same time, and they were all 10,000 light cavalry to escort. Heavy weight 20,000 infantry to escort the remaining ones. Heavy weight 20,000 people...

Cao Jinghan's sigh came from his ears, "Marching at night is a taboo, not to mention that the cold night in the desert is very likely to cause frostbite and reduce personnel."

Jiang Anyi whispered: "There is no way to march for 300 miles in two and a half days."

Cao Jinghan nodded and said, "There are also benefits of marching on the grassland. There are roads everywhere. Each team is equipped with five guides, twenty detectives from the Military Intelligence Department, and their own detectives. Don't worry about losing your way. Stay in Hawkya tonight, where you will prepare hot water and tents in advance, and you don't need to camp. You don't have to worry about getting lost. It will be difficult to start tomorrow."

Zhu Jinfeng sets the distance to four sections, and tonight to reach Hokya forty miles. Tomorrow, the daytime marching will reach 120 miles, stay in Liner Mountain; the day after tomorrow, march a hundred miles to Haolantun to rest; the eighth day of the lunar month is the easiest, and the last forty miles can be reached around noon. Set up camp more than ten miles from the Laerna Valley to prevent the Badai tribe from breaking through, and wait for nine.

Sun-motion attack.

At the beginning of Hai, Jiang Anyi followed Zhu Jinfeng's central army, and Yan Jiancai's front team had already left for half an hour. There was a crescent moon in the sky, and the moonlight reflected the snow on the ground, and it was a hazy sound in the snow. A three-meter-wide road in the snow was straight forward, which was a trace of the front team walking. It was very cold, and the road I stepped on was frozen again, and the horse's hooves made a crisp "click" sound.

The army did not ignite the torches and marched silently under the moonlight. Jiang Anyi rode on charcoal, wearing a cloak to cover the buttocks of the charcoal. Charcoal is twenty years old this year, and it is already old. When riding on the horse, Jiang Anyi could feel the charcoal muscles contracting vigorously. If it weren't for the reins he restrained, the charcoal would have galloped up the next moment, and the charcoal was still in his prime. This would probably be due to his frequent use of Mingyu true qi to wash the meridians for it.

Jiang Anyi patted Charcoal on the neck spoiledly. This guy has been with him for seventeen years. He is his family and brother. He has been together through life and death many times, and his heart is in harmony. After we make contributions in Mobei this time, we will let Charcoal rest well and take good care of her.

"I am a scholar who has no use. An Yi is both civil and military, and I am envious." Cao Jinghan poked his head out of the car window and praised. Cao Jinghan was wearing a bear fur, sheepskin gloves, and a big squid. His whole body was wrapped tightly in the carriage and smiled, "An Yi is really good, he is not afraid of the cold at all, and he is energetic."

Although the true qi is slowly recovering, these coldnesses have little impact on Jiang Anyi. Jiang Anyi said: "Those who work hard to control others, and Cao Gong uses his brain, why should we compete with the martial artist for the best or shortcoming?"

There was a fire in front of it, and the army had already marched for ten miles. When we approached, there were a long line of large pots with white mist evaporated and boiling water rolled. It was left by the front army. The hot hot water drank, which made people feel cold immediately. The army had a short rest and continued to move forward. When it arrived at Hawkeya, it was already midnight. Hawkeya's garrison had already prepared the hot water, camp tents, and Yan Jiancai briefly reported to Zhu Jinfeng, and then went to rest.

Before the next day, outsiders shouted that horses were neighing, and Jiang Anyi crawled out of the tent and couldn't help but shivered. Most of the soldiers had already stood up, and the former soldiers had already had breakfast and were packing their luggage, chariots and horses. Five thousand local garrisons were organized into the team, replaced the people with poor energy and followed the former army out.

The central army, left army, and right army set off at Chenzhengshi. The sun rose and the mist on the grassland dissipated. The army advanced significantly faster than last night. It took nearly two hours to rest and had to walk for more than fifty miles. Zhu Jinfeng was obviously a little anxious. It was difficult to reach Liner Mountain before nightfall at this level.

After resting for half an hour, he set off again. Zhu Jinfeng ordered the infantry to trot forward. The soldiers who could not keep up were thrown to the side of the road waiting for the rear army to gather. Jiang Anyi saw the soldiers sitting in the snow and gasping for help. He looked at the brigade forward in a sad way. Some people followed the team with their legs and struggled. You must know that they were thrown into the wilderness, without tents and supplies, and they could easily die of starvation.

Ci did not take charge of the troops, and Jiang Anyi knew that in order to ensure that the Badai tribe was encircled on the 9th day of the lunar month, the large group of people must arrive at the gathering point on time, otherwise the Badai tribe would escape from the loophole, and the Lao army would return in vain on the expedition, and the morale of the entire army would drop to freezing point, and even affect the entire Northern Expedition plan.

When he arrived at Liner Mountain at the beginning of You, Zhu Jinfeng summoned the generals of the front, left and right army to discuss the matter, sent chariots and horses to search and rescue the soldiers who were out of the team, and ordered the leading soldiers to mix meat into the corn to cook them to ensure the needs of the soldiers. The team that gathered the troops was busy until the hour of Hai. It was probably difficult for those soldiers who had not found to survive the cold at night.

The next day, Jiang Anyi learned from Cao Jinghan that there were more than 200 missing soldiers, frostbite and illness, and the number of people with a loss of up to four or five hundred. It is estimated that the reduction of people would reach about 2,000 when they arrived at the Larnina Valley. Four large armies reduced nearly 10,000 people. How many people would lose in a battle? How many people would die in this Northern Expedition? Jiang Anyi thoughts flashed and dared not think too much.

Haolantun, forty miles away from the Laerna Valley, is the third day's garrison of Zhu Jinfeng's troops. Because they are close to the Badai tribe, they dare not make fires, and the fire and smoke may rise to attract the attention of the Badai tribe. The dry hard cakes are covered with pickles, Jiang Anyi swallows them as hard as everyone else. The leader knocks on the frozen lake and lifts cold water. Soon a layer of thin ice is formed on the surface, and drinks this way to the coldness of the belly and penetrates the limbs.

Zhu Jinfeng did not rest and took his personal guards to check the situation of each team. After two consecutive days of marching, the morale among the army was low. As the commander, he had to boost morale and boost the morale of the army. Zhu Jinfeng ordered people to disperse beef jerky and mutton jerky to the soldiers. Each person could get about two taels and eat meat, which somewhat restored the soldiers' morale.

Jiang Anyi was sitting cross-legged in the tent to regulate his breathing, which was a must-do every day. He and eight personal guards were separated into a cowhide tent. The conditions for marching and fighting were harsh, so Jiang Anyi naturally would not be picky. The linoleum was laid on the floor, and the personal guards were lying in furs, cloaks and clothes. Compared to the common soldiers wearing sheepskin coats, the felt and their body temperatures were already much better.

The true qi flows in the meridians, and the time of one day has increased nearly twice. In the past, the route of the true qi was the twelve meridians, but now there are eight extraordinary meridians, just like eight river channels are opened in the body. The true qi accumulated in the dantian was originally pitifully small, and there were eight more circulating paths. The true qi, which was originally like the surging rivers, turned into a gurgling stream in the mountains. Jiang Anyi slowly stopped his work and sighed inwardly, not knowing when and when will he return to his former glory.

The true energy in the meridians is thin, and the power of injuring the enemy is greatly reduced. In the past, he could be invincible like wielding a sledgehammer, but now he can only throw a flying knife to hurt the enemy. Jiang Anyi smiled self-deprecatingly, thinking that he had changed from using strength to using skills to competing people. On this trip to Mobei, he only brought the Moon Killing Scimitar, and left the lightning gun and the star-shooting bow at home. In his current situation, he could not dance and could not pull the star-shooting bow, which was a burden.

The eight extraordinary meridians in the body were unblocked and shared the true energy, which also brought Jiang Anyi the same benefit. His hearing and vision ratio was enhanced. Jiang Anyi tried to shoot a moving object with a bow of one stone within a hundred steps. The arrow was empty, and his accuracy and sensitivity increased, his power was weakened, and there were gains and losses.

Snoring sounds came from his ears, and the army entered his sleep. He listened carefully and Jiang Anyi could hear the faint sound of accusation orders from miles away. From time to time, patrol footsteps passed by. There was still an hour before dawn. Jiang Anyi tightened his fur tightly, lay on the linoleum, and closed his eyes.
