In the early morning, a light mist flows through the valley. The dew drops on the tips of the new green grass blades are crystal clear. Up and down the mountain, the new green is proud, and the air seems to have the fragrance of spring.

A short, aggressive horn spoiled the beautiful atmosphere. Hundreds of soldiers of the Fallen Goose Army gathered on the school grounds at the sound of horns, their blades shining in the morning light.

Lin Jue was wearing a black armor and a blue cloak, standing quietly in front of the team, with a calm figure and a cold face. Beside him, Gao Muqing's red cloak danced like a flame, and the moon-white cloak of white ice flowed like water.

"Report to the master of the village, the military division. All the brothers are assembled. Please give a lecture to the main army division of Dazhai. Liang Qi strode over and shouted loudly.

Gao Muqing nodded, and said in a deep voice: "I don't have anything to say, please ask the military advisor to speak." ”

Lin Jue smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I'll say a few words to the brothers." ”

Under the gaze of hundreds of eyes, Lin Jue slowly walked onto the earth platform. With his backhand, he flicked his cloak, glanced at everyone, and spoke loudly.

"Brothers. You all already know that today, we are going to compete with the soldiers and horses of Qindonghe Heifeng Village in the Pheasant Ridge Valley at the foot of the mountain, and I want to talk to my brothers about some things. I know, you must really have someone questioning the decision of me and the owner of the village, knowing that the opponent is several times more numerous than me, but you want to take the egg to touch the stone, is this stupid? Isn't it crazy? I don't find it strange at all about these doubts, which is actually quite normal. ”

The soldiers of the Luoyan Army looked at Lin Jue silently, indeed, after announcing the news of the decisive battle, there were indeed doubts in the army, because they could not understand this almost suicidal behavior. It was difficult for them to understand that the always wise Fang Junshi would make such a decision.

“…… I don't want to explain to you why I did this, because you know the military rules of the Wild Goose Army. But the order given is unquestionable and must be completed to the letter. The first rule of the military regulations is that you should memorize the rolling melon, yes, that is, 'soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty'. Obey military orders, even if you are allowed to step into death, you must not frown. Why? Because you are soldiers of the Fallen Goose Army, a member of an iron-blooded army. ”

“…… I know that some of you haven't been with the Fallen Goose Army for long. Maybe you don't know what is in my bones. Here I can tell you that the army of the wild goose you are in, they have experienced countless bloody battles, their blood and sweat are dripping on every inch of the land of the wild goose valley, and they have sacrificed everything, even their lives, for this place of survival. At the beginning of entering Funiu Mountain, the situation was so difficult. After taking Luoyan Valley, how sinister the situation is. At that time, there were only two or three hundred brothers in the Luoyan army, and they were attacked by thousands of enemy troops every day. They settled in the Funiu Mountain, and fought with their blood and lives to build the place we have now. Their names are carved into the boulders on the cliffs behind Dazhai, and you must have seen them. It is these people who allow us to stand on this, and we have the situation I have today. As their successors, you must not tarnish their honor, but carry forward their spirit. You must understand that you are not fighting for yourself, but for the more than 10,000 people in the cottage, for the rolling waves of rice and wheat in the Luoyan Valley, and for this place of survival that we have fought for. You carry the hope of everyone in the cottage, carry the legacy of your dead brothers, and you have a great responsibility on your shoulders, which is far more than personal life and death. You probably get the idea! ”

The soldiers of the Falling Goose Army replied in unison: "We understand! ”

The words of the military advisor easily moved them, not because of how inflammatory the words of the military advisor were, but because many people in the Luoyan army witnessed or partially witnessed the history of the Luoyan Valley. That's not that long, it's only been a little over a year. Gao Muqing and the others were embarrassed when they entered Funiu Mountain, and then faced the situation of annihilation, so many scenes of old brothers fighting to the death and bloodshed, in fact, are vivid. Every soldier who joins the Luoyan Army, one of the links after joining is to listen to the veterans' review of their previous experiences, which is one of Lin Jue's requirements. Therefore, even the new soldiers know this history.

"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, I never take the initiative to fight against people in Luoyan Valley Dazhai, we just want to have a space to survive. Let us live and work in peace and contentment, be fed, wear warm clothes, and live without quarrel with the world. However, there are some people in this world who don't want to see us live freely, and want us to suffer and let us die. Can we say yes? Answer me, can we be killed by the neck and captured? Let them be slaughtered? Let them bully? Can? Lin Jue shouted.

"Can't!" The soldiers of the Falling Goose Army shouted loudly.

"Yes, absolutely not. We just don't want to take the initiative to violate others, but we are not cowardly. Think about Zuo Zongdao back then, wasn't it once unavoidable, but what should it be? Now, there is another Qindong River. They attacked us for nearly two months, killed and wounded thousands of our brothers, and were our enemies. How can we compromise with him? Therefore, we have to destroy him, in order to protect the Falling Wild Goose Valley, and also for the honor of my Falling Wild Goose Army. Whoever dares to invade my Luoyan Army, my Luoyan Army will swear to revenge, even if there is the last soldier left, I will fight to the end. Therefore, we have to fight to the death with it, and we want Qin Donghe to understand that he provoked someone who shouldn't be provoked, and we want to make him pay a heavy price and make him regret it for the rest of his life. Do you agree? ”

"Agreed! Agree! Fight to the death, fight to the end. The soldiers of the Falling Goose Army shouted loudly.

Lin Jue laughed loudly and said loudly: "Yes, fight to the death and never compromise." The brothers are all good. Finally, I think I can explain to you why I have to fight Qin Donghe's soldiers and horses head-on. Some people say that this is an unwise move to hit a stone with an egg. But I'll just tell you, this is the only way for an army of iron to be justified. Back then, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, broke the cauldron and led 20,000 Chu troops to break the elite of the 400,000 Qin army, is this hitting a stone with an egg? 50,000 vs. 400,000, which is stronger and which is weaker? In the battle of Pengcheng, Xiang Yu used 30,000 cavalry against the Han army of 600,000, is this considered a self-defeating road? But what was the result? It has achieved the famous Chu overlord through the ages, and the power of the Chu army has been passed down forever. In the Battle of Huangshui in the Jin Dynasty, the 80,000 Beifu army fought against the million army of the former Qin. Who dared to speak of the victory of the Beifu Army before the war? The list goes on and on. What I can tell you is that the success or failure of a war does not depend on the number of soldiers, but on a variety of factors. Such as strategy, will, courage, confidence, etc. If I want to truly become an iron-blooded army, if you want to become a person who is feared by everyone in the world, you must pass this hurdle. After passing the high mountain in front of them, the Falling Goose Army has since gone one step further, and will be able to deal with any strong enemy in the future. Remember, our army is an army, not a rabble. The five thousand people at the foot of the mountain are a rabble. If even this rabble is afraid, what is the deterrent power of the banner of the Falling Goose Army? What can I be proud of as a member of the Falling Goose Army? My army will win! ”

Lin Jue raised his arms and shouted.

"Victory! Win! "All the soldiers raised their arms and shouted, they had forgotten their fears, they had forgotten their worries. At this moment, they were all excited, their hearts were full of fighting spirit, and their blood was rushing.

Lin Jue nodded heavily, turned around and said to Gao Muqing: "The master of the big village will give the order." ”

Gao Muqing was also infected by Lin Jue's words, and his eyes were a little moist. whispered to Lin Jue: "What you said is so good, I was also a little worried, but after listening to your words, I am ashamed of my worries." For the sake of Dazhai and for this land, what if you die in battle? That's our job. ”

Lin Jue smiled: "Believe me, this battle will be won." It's so easy to die. If you want to die, you can't die in the hands of Qin Donghe, the old horseman, it's too embarrassing. ”

Gao Muqing Hulu smiled, stepped forward, Qing Yue's voice penetrated the air, and ordered in a loud voice: "Brothers, immediately march to Pheasant Ridge!" I, along with the military advisors and the leaders of the cottage, will take the lead and fight side by side with all the brothers! Today is the day when I fall into the wild goose valley and become famous in the world, let's go! ”

……

The Pheasant Ridge Valley and the Luoyan Valley are crossed in the shape of 'Ya'. The place of engagement was chosen at the junction of the valleys. There is actually a point in this choice.

For Luoyan Valley Dazhai, the battle site here is backed by Luoyan Valley, and there are two peaks in the east and west behind it as support, which can prevent the opponent from being attacked by the opponent when gathering troops. For the Heifeng Village of the Qindong River, the valleys on both sides form a deep zone, which is conducive to the development of its soldiers and horses. The northern slope of Pheasant Ridge is a barrier. This is the terrain that can be attacked and defended.

Qin Donghe's choice of this place as the place of battle actually had other considerations. He originally thought that Luoyan Valley Dazhai would not accept the conditions of changing the place of engagement, so he had a little intention of deliberately luring the enemy into battle. Give the Luoyan Army a place to fight where they think they are safe and have their backs to the Luoyan Valley, and give the Luoyan Valley Dazhai the illusion that they can retreat into the Luoyan Valley if the battle is unfavorable. But in fact, Qin Donghe had already figured out that once the enemy army was defeated, even if they had an ambush, he would order them to chase after them and completely annihilate them. Luoyan Valley is where they are buried.

However, after receiving the reply that Luoyan Valley Dazhai agreed to change the location and fight to the death three days ago, Qin Donghe still regretted it a little. If you had known that the other party was so happy, you should have reconsidered it when choosing a location. If you go a few miles deeper into the Pheasant Ridge Valley, you can arrange an ambush on the slope of the hill at the head of the mountain, and in the event of a battle, you can surprise your troops and outflank them in a roundabout way.

Now in this location, neither side can set up an ambush behind the flank, this is really a real head-to-head duel. However, this still satisfied Qin Donghe. Even if you are blind, you should understand the comparison of strength in this big battle. More than 5,000 soldiers and horses against more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, a five-to-one comparison of troops, the victory or defeat can actually be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
