Chapter 30
Lin Fang faced the marching map on the wall and stood with his hands behind his back.
Even though he was powerless and stood there without making a sound, his clear temperament was still full of silent majesty.
All the generals just looked at his back and didn't speak, but they didn't dare to urge him.
Suddenly, he frowned and pointed to a place upstream of the Mian River south of Mianyang City: "Who guards here?"
A general replied: "Go back to General Mingwei, there is Fengzhang Town. There are thousands of people under our army stationed at Fengzhangdi. If there is any abnormal movement, there will be warnings immediately. The general does not need to worry."
Lin Fang's eyebrows stretched out, and then turned to General Gao and said, "General Gao, it is best if Du Zeng does not come to invade. But we must also be fully prepared. I suggest that the scouts strengthen their investigation into the enemy's eastward direction and strengthen their strength to defend the city, how about it?"
General Gao nodded and replied, "If Du Zengzhen invades, our army will have 30,000 or 10,000 people, what's the fear?"
Although General Gao humiliated us yesterday, he was different from Xuan Kai. He was a man. Lin Fang also nodded with some approval: "General said very well."
So he began to train troops.
On the second day, Xuan Kai issued an order to train troops.
But when I really arrived at the martial arts field, I found that the soldiers were all a little depressed, standing loosely, and thousands of people in the huge martial arts field seemed to be a piece of loose sand.
Lin Fang didn't say much, but this day, he slashed more than a dozen.
The military wind was cheered.
After Huo Yang and I took turns to defeat the ten "masters" elected in the army, the soldiers' competitive spirit was really picked up.
Lin Fang ordered each battalion to select twenty elite soldiers for us to train ourselves.
However, no one expected that a personal soldier came to report that someone was fighting in the army.
We rushed to the Chinese secretariat of the army. We heard the sound of scolding and fighting from afar, and the noise was quite loud.
We rushed to the open space in front of the tent and happened to see a rough man stepping on a burly man under our feet.
"Okay!" The onlookers were thundering.
But when the clerk saw the clerk frowning and said to the rough man, "Luo Wu, everyone wants to follow General War, why do you be so powerful?"
The rough man Luo Wu was one of the best kung fu lost to me a few days ago. He was probably the best kung fu among soldiers. He smiled and said to the clerk: "There is only one woman in the military camp of 30,000 people. Of course, our brothers have to follow her! The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. If you can defeat me, we will give way."
Then I found that there were five or six soldiers standing behind him, making excuses, probably his brother. They all looked familiar, but they were all good soldiers in the army who were defeated by me the day before yesterday.
He said arrogantly, and the soldiers on the side were all angry, but no one was willing to come forward to compete with him for a while. The clerk was so tired that he said anxiously and angrily: "I want any battalion for General War, and I have no reason to give you seven battalions!"
Luo Wu's beard covered most of his face, and he grinned with a grin, and his eyes were very bright and stubborn.
Lin Fang, who had been silently holding his hands behind his back, said lightly: "Tie."
I immediately sympathized with Luo Wu and others.
On the first day, Luo Wu and others were tied to the flagpole of the martial arts field due to a military fight, and exposed to the sun for a day. The seven people kept silent.
On the third day, soldiers began to plead for Luo Wu. Lin Fang refused to say anything, not even looking at him. I couldn't help but run to the side of the martial arts field and instructed Xiaolan from afar to feed them some water. Luo Wu was probably a little dizzy from the sun, and grinned at me from afar, with a mouthful of white teeth on his black face.
On the fifth day, they were probably exhausted. Lin Fang asked someone to carry the weak seven people to the military tent.
"Do you know where you are wrong?" Lin Fang sat in the main seat and asked condescendingly.
The seven people seemed to be sank on the ground, but despite this, Na Luowu still said with a stern voice: "I don't know."
Lin Fang smiled deeply and looked at me: "Qinghong, what do you think of to deal with it? Should I be killed or expelled from the military camp?"
When I saw Luo Wu's expression changed drastically, I sighed and bowed: "They have been punished. Besides, this matter has arisen because of me. Please don't punish the general again. Let them follow me to practice martial arts!"
As soon as this sentence was spoken, all seven people showed joy.
"Get up." Lin Fang pondered for a moment and said, "It's too cheap for them."
Luo Wu and others showed resentment again, after all, the punishment they received was severe enough.
I had to bow down again: "General, the seven of them are rare masters in the army. If they are expelled, it would be a pity. Why not let them practice martial arts with me, make military achievements in the future, and redeem them for their sins? May the general let them go first for my sake!"
Luo Wu and others showed an excited expression, Lin Fang said lightly: "Since General Zhan pleads with him, okay." He looked at several people again: "Follow General Zhan to learn martial arts. If you feel relaxed at all, go to the martial arts field for another month. If you make military achievements, it will be no problem to become an official."
Everyone said in unison: "No!"
Lin Fangshi Shiran left. Luo Wu and others struggled to stand up: "Thank you for helping you, General."
I quickly said a few humble words, looked at Lin Fang's back, and remembered his private instructions last night: "Qinghong is now a general, so he should have his own confidant. The seven Luowu people are innocent and upright. Although they are a little rude, they have a temper with you."
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Leader, your favor is too big.
—————
A month later, the weather was already very hot.
The Luo Wuqi brothers' Zhan Family Fist has achieved a little success.
The governor of Jingzhou actually returned to Jiankang to report his work. There is still no trace.
The soldiers in the city have been trained to be redesigned by us.
Xuan Kai is still in a snowy night, and General Gao is still in cooperation.
There was no atmosphere before the war in the city, and even I began to believe that Du Zeng's army was really just passing by.
The spy sent by Lin Fang has not yet returned Du Zeng's specific position, but the power of assassination has been trained.
One day, the spy suddenly came to report that Du Zeng's army moved.
Move from northwest to south.
Gao Jianhua and Lin Fang immediately held an emergency military service meeting and reported to Xuan Kai the military situation.
Xuan Kai was still optimistic, perhaps Du Zeng was just passing south, and Gao Jianhua even felt lucky. Only Lin Fang frowned and insisted on strengthening the fortifications at the West City Gate and the North Gate.
Du Zeng's army moved south at a normal speed. When he reached the west gate of our city less than 15 miles, he suddenly marched in a hurry.
Three days later, the troops came to the city.
Gao Jianhua and Lin Fang were firmly clearing the walls and waiting for the battlefield. Xuan Kai was worried and sent letters of help to the cities in all directions.
But he was blocked and returned.
It turned out that 500 miles east of the city, 10,000 Du Zeng's army quietly arrived. In the north of the city, 15,000 unidentified troops had cut off the road - it was probably the reinforcements of the Zhao State to Du Zeng.
Mianyang City is surrounded on three sides, and the south is water.
When Xuan Kai arrived at the city tower once, he saw the dark Du Zeng army and fell to the ground.
He grabbed Lin Fang's sleeve as if he was catching a life-saving straw: "General Lin, Alliance Leader Lin! Don't you have a martial arts master? Send someone to kill Du Zeng quickly to relieve the danger of my Mianyang City!"
Lin Fang slowly pulled back his sleeves and helped Xuan Kai up: "General, you must first repel Du Zeng's army, so that the assassin can leave the city!"
Xuan Kai could only continue to be uneasy, and the general was fully granted to Lin Fang and Gao Jianhua.
Two days later, 20,000 troops from the east and west were all assembled, and the northern army remained unmoved.
The drummer beat the cowhide drum so hard that the murderous aura shook the sky. The black flag fluttered, the dust flew, and the sky and the earth were dim and yellow. The black army stepped towards the city gate in a silence, and the mountains and rivers were shaking.
