Chapter 535: Ruthless people stopped in front of Jinji Ridge
Yang Jian played two levels in a row, and the morale of the Zhou army was like a rainbow, and the merchant army was becoming more and more declining.
However, the Zhou army did not rush to the Jiepai Pass in one go, but let the soldiers recuperate in the two passes that had been occupied, and waited for reinforcements from the rear.
In the Zhou State, there were still one or two million soldiers who could be mobilized, and the number of reinforcements requested by Yang Jian was not too much, Huang Feihu personally went into battle, led 500,000 reinforcements to the east, and arrived at Bishui Pass a month later.
There are more than 10 large and small cities in the two passes, and more than 100 towns, and Yang Jian has recruited more than 100,000 armor soldiers to be the defender of Qinglong Pass.
In total, Yang Jian's Eastern Expeditionary Army expanded to 1.3 million, most of which were elite soldiers who had been in battle for a long time, and their orders were forbidden and their combat power was extraordinary.
Standing at the juncture, Yang Jian looked eastward.
To the east of 1,200 miles is the Jiepai Pass, there are mountains and forests along the way to block the road, Yang Jian is somewhat familiar with Jinji Ridge in the middle.
24 days ago, Emperor Xin was angry in the court, and Shen Gongbao recommended Kong Xuan, the chief soldier of Sanshan Pass;
Tough enemy.
Yang Jian sighed lightly, and couldn't help but wonder why Kong Xuan entered the Dao Gate Tribulation.
Judging from the results, Kong Xuan may have been taught Yin by the West;
First, the sage of the Western Sect invited Kong Xuan to come out of the mountain, promising to defeat Kong Xuan and give the Feng clan all kinds of benefits, so as to promote the prestige of the Western Sect and take the opportunity to turn the disciples of the Daoist Sect to the west. After Kong Xuan agreed, he entered the Shang country as a general, and waited for this time, but unexpectedly he was directly admitted to the Western religion by the Western saints in the back.
The second is that Kong Xuan has entered the Western Sect, and he came here to put on a good show with Zhun Ti, by the way, weakening the strength of the Sect, so that the battle between the two religions will damage more immortals.
The third ......
That's it, no matter which possibility, Kong Xuan is not a good person.
Not to mention......
Before the Jiepai Pass, after the Tong Pass, the Ten Thousand Immortal Dynasty, at this time it seemed to be calm, and the immortals of the sect could not say when they would jump out in a nest and kill the world upside down.
Next, as long as the Zhou army is out of the customs, it will be a battle for the sky.
These generals around him, no matter whether they are immortals, they don't know who can survive.
"Prime Minister, why have you been here for so long?"
Huang Feihu came from behind, with a sword hanging from his waist and a hilt in his hand, and his instrument was extraordinary.
Xiao Lan, who was sitting on the eaves of the city tower and shaking her legs, immediately jumped down and stood aside in a decent manner.
Xiao Lan arched her hand and said, "I've seen King Wucheng." ”
"Brother Xiao doesn't have to be polite, and there is no one else here," Huang Feihu replied with a smile.
Yang Jian turned his head to look at them and buried what he was thinking.
What should come will always come, you don't have to panic, just face it.
Xiao Lan gestured to Yang Jian, signaling herself to go to the side to see the scenery, Yang Jian nodded with a smile.
Looking at her back, Huang Feihu said in a low voice: "Where did the prime minister find this young talent? She is scheming and extremely smart, but the prime minister wants to regard him as Wang Zuozhi's talent?"
"She is also a monk, after pacifying the great merchants, go and follow her heart. ”
Huang Feihu sighed lightly when he heard this, "Every time the king mentions this matter, he feels worried in his heart, if there is no prime minister in the Zhou Kingdom, the king will be a little unstable in sleeping." ”
"Da Zhou is full of talents, and everyone can take charge of their own affairs, and I don't really worry about that. ”
"Maybe," Huang Feihu also looked to the east, at this time it was already twilight, the east sky was dyed with ink, and the clouds were hideous, quite a mood.
Huang Feihu said: "Prime Minister, the king intends to drive the expedition in person, but I am afraid that the prime minister will not allow it, so let me explore the situation." ”
Yang Jian thought for a while, and said: "The country can't be without a king for a day, if the king wants to conquer in person, he still needs to stabilize the army...... In this way, when the Cloud Piercing Pass is captured, it is not too late for the king to conquer in person. ”
Perhaps with the blessing of the Emperor's luck, the exposition of the Sect can also reduce the loss of a few immortals in the Ten Thousand Immortal Array.
Huang Feihu nodded with a smile, "I'll tell the king what the prime minister said later." ”
"How's the battle going in the north?"
Li Jing's father and son have won consecutive battles, and have captured more than 40 cities, and dozens of cities have surrendered when they heard the troops. It's just that the north is vast, and it will take them two or three years to march to Chaoge City. The merchant army was also deployed in dangerous places, and it would take more time to conquer them one by one. ”
Yang Jian nodded lightly, "It's not bad to enter the country like this, we seem to be the closest to Chaoge City here, but if we can Chen Bing Chaoge City at the same time with them, it won't be a delay." ”
Huang Feihu was puzzled: "Why is this so?"
It was not easy for Yang Jian to tell the matter of the war between the two sects in the future, after all, at this time, the heavens were confused, and except for the saints, no one else should know what would happen later.
"Along the way, it is not only the merchant soldiers who are blocking the troops, but also the immortals and gods. ”
Huang Feihu groaned for a while when he heard this, and nodded slightly, "The weight borne by the prime minister is not something that Feihu can see, so I'm really ashamed." ”
Yang Jian smiled but did not answer, looked at the Fantian seal, male and female swords and the down-and-out bell placed in the Xuangui belt, and remembered Yin Jiao's gaze when he died.
These three treasures, Master Guangchengzi replied that he would come to pick them up in person later, and he didn't know when he would come over.
"Prime Minister, Najiameng Pass can't be attacked for a long time, why don't you lock up a strange soldier here, go over the mountain, and cut off its grain route from behind. ”
"This is a very good plan, why don't you let Tianhua lead the troops forward. ”
"Although Tianhua has spells in his body, he lacks his heart and is difficult to lead alone, but General Nezha is the best candidate. ”
Huang Feihu was also ruthless to his son, Yang Jian thought about it, he originally intended to let Huang Tianhua avoid the battle of Jinjiling, but he was worried that Huang Tianhua was not leading the troops in front of him, but it would be more dangerous......
"Okay, let Nezha go, bother King Wucheng to draft military orders, and order a soldier and horse for Nezha who is familiar with the mountains and forests. ”
"Wow!" Huang Feihu clenched his fists and took the order, and went down the city tower in a hurry.
Xiao Lan walked over with a folding fan, "Prime Minister, when will you send troops to the boundary card level?"
"The day after tomorrow. ”
"Is it so casual?" Xiao Lan couldn't laugh or cry, "It's better to study the astrological horoscope, and then flip through the yellow calendar or something." ”
Yang Jian waved his hand: "Let's not pay attention to this, just fight." By the way, I'm going to give you a problem this time. ”
Xiao Lan shrunk her neck in fright, "What? I'm stupid, don't let me bother too much, it's easy to wrinkle." ”
"There may be a strong enemy blocking the way in the future, I have to deal with this enemy wholeheartedly," Yang Jian said, "Huang Feihu is in charge of the formation, and you are assisting from the side, how about it?"
"Not well," Xiao Lan lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "Why do I have to talk to people other than you, and I have to accompany Xiaoxiao and work hard." ”
Yang Jian suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and she didn't know why she had such thoughts.
Taking a step forward, Xiao Lan couldn't react, and her eyes were filled with Yang Jian's chest.
At that moment, her face was red and her heart was beating, and she always felt that it was difficult to breathe, and her heart flew without a trace.
Yang Jian just put his hands behind his back, leaned over and lowered his head, looked at her decently, and then sighed, "How do you feel that Young Master Xiao and Miss Xiao are about to become one person? ”
"Why am I not responsible?" Xiao Lan held her head high, subconsciously took half a step back, bit her lip, and avoided Yang Jian's gaze, "Only this once, not for example." ”
"Good...... Also, pay attention to Huang Tianhua and remind him not to be careless about the enemy. ”
"Got it, long-winded prime minister, I'm going to find a place to have dinner!"
After that, Xiao Lan flew away directly from the city and went to a big city in Guanzhong.
Yang Jian watched her leave, and the little unrest in his heart gradually dissipated, chuckled, and returned to the barracks.
When to send troops, in fact, Yang Jian had already decided, and the generals of the various armies had also received Yang Jian's notice early.
On the eve of the army, Yang Jian invited more than 200 generals of the Zhou army to a banquet, and the general soldier's mansion of Bishui Pass was full of traffic.
There are no immortals in marching and fighting, but those who crawl out of the pile of dead are the victors who can make meritorious deeds and seal their wives and sons.
From the eyes of these generals, Yang Jian saw that he was high-spirited and full of ambition, as if he was also infected by these people, and Yang Jian had more expectations for the war in his heart.
Late at night, the generals returned to the camp to rest, and the front corps began to line up at Bishui Pass.
The dispatch was divided into three sections, with 600,000 troops marching first, 300,000 marching troops later, and 400,000 troops responding from behind.
The scouts sent out by Yang Jian had also figured out the strength of the Jiepai Pass, and it was expected that if the other party took the initiative to attack, they would be able to transfer 700,000 soldiers and horses at most, but in fact, their own troops were already a comprehensive advantage.
Until now, the Zhou State has expanded its army several times from one million soldiers, and more than half of the Shang army's soldiers have lost more than half of their soldiers, and the advantages and disadvantages of the troops have been reversed.
In the middle of the night, Yang Jian suddenly had nothing to do.
With a move in his heart, he took a piece of tissue paper, took a pen and wrote a letter to his family, and folded the tissue paper into a paper crane.
Blowing a breath of Xuanqi, the paper crane seemed to be alive, circled around Yang Jian's body a few times, and flew to the west with its wings.
Why do you need to put your heart into Yaotai, if you know her with this heart.
Yang Jian stood outside the window, standing quietly at the full moon sinking in the west, not thinking about anything, just enjoying the breeze and feeling the purity of the night.
At dawn, the army left the customs.
After conquering Bishui Pass, the Zhou army recuperated for a month and continued the eastern expedition.
Yang Jian and Huang Feihu personally led an army of 600,000 to go first, Ji Dan led an army of 700,000 to follow from behind, hundreds of Zhou generals and dozens of immortals, and their army seemed to swallow mountains and rivers.
The army marched forward for five days, and there were mountains blocking the road in front of it, and 700,000 merchant troops camped in the mountains, stretching for hundreds of miles, blocking the road of the Zhou army's eastward expedition.
Yang Jian changed his habit of observing in the battle in the past, and this time he took the initiative to call forward the battle, and specially rode a white horse rewarded by the Martial King, wearing snow-white armor and long hair to welcome the wind.
"I am Yang Jian, the prime minister of the Zhou State, and the lord of the merchant army will go out to answer!"
This self-reported door made the merchant army commotion everywhere, not because Yang Jian released his momentum, but because his reputation was too terrifying.
At the camp halfway up the mountainside of the merchant army, an elegant young man wearing battle armor also stepped out, suspended in mid-air, standing with his hands in his hands, and his expression was proud.
"Shang General Kong Xuan, waiting here for a long time. ”
"World War I?"
"Gladly. ”
The two words fell, Yang Jian's figure had disappeared on horseback, and Kong Xuan's figure had disappeared in place.
Millions of soldiers subconsciously looked up, but saw two pillars of light, one white and one gray, soaring straight into the sky, and in a blink of an eye, they were killed outside the clouds!
Kong, Kong Xuan?
Xiao Lan's face turned pale in the formation, and her hands trembled slightly.
The strong enemy Yang Jian said is this ruthless man?
