Devil’s Advent

Chapter 977: Decisive Battle!

The blood of five hundred thousand great Chu elites,

into my inkstone,

Brush up on me.

In these words, I really didn't try to make any belly drafts, and I didn't deliberately raise anything;

It was purely because what the old man said was so ridiculous and absurd that before listening to the play, Zheng Fan had never expected such low-end and tooth-piercing persuasion.

Therefore, this response is also completely casual.

The blind man pinched his hands, and the mental storm was released. In an instant, the white mist on the old man's body dissipated, and he passed out. The three wandering girls who didn't know why rushed to take care of the old man.

They are just mouthpieces, and even they themselves don't know what they are here for.

Zheng Fan sighed,

Looking at Si Niang,

asked;

"It stands to reason that I should be more majestic at the moment, but I always feel that there is a little bit of reluctance."

Si Niang smiled charmingly and said: "My lord should say this at night."

The blind man and Ah Ming beside him unconsciously turned their heads away, pretending that they didn't hear anything.

Some jokes can be made at will, and some jokes must not be participated in, otherwise, it is really hopeless.

Facing his daughter-in-law, the prince didn't feel offended by the words, instead he said:

"I can't help it. Responsibility. You can force it when you can't do it. After all, you should do it, right?"

"Grandpa has worked hard."

"Hahaha."

Old couple's jokes, stop here;

Zheng Fan twisted his neck, stretched his arms,

road:

"Don't wear armor anymore, let's wear royal clothes."

According to the Yan system, when you canonize a title, you will often bring the corresponding court clothes, that is, the formal clothes you need to wear during the grand ceremony. For ordinary nobles, this set of clothes is a family heirloom, which is extremely sacred .

Zheng Fan naturally also has;

From the first emperor canonized him as Uncle Pingye to Marquis Pingxi, every time he was canonized, the eunuch who declared the decree would bring him court clothes. The set of clothes here does not mean "one piece", but several pieces according to the season and occasion. need.

When he was named the regent, Ji Laoliu also asked the Palace of Embroidered Clothes to specially design a set for himself;

It's just that because Zheng Fan has Si Niang by his side, he has no shortage of clothes to wear, and the more noble court clothes are full of meaning and dignity, so the comfort level is poor.

Therefore, all kinds of python robes that Zheng Fan usually wears are embroidered by Si Niang;

Fitting, comfortable, breathable, of course, no lack of dignity.

"I used to think that things like etiquette are burdensome; formal things are all burdens;

Thinking about it now, I was still too young, tired and burdened, and sometimes I have to take the initiative to bear it. This is the real difficulty.

these years,

Along the way,

I have said too many lies, maybe I have made a lot of ambitions, and I have deceived many people;

But those who have been deceived by me, the enemy is okay, but many of them are actually deceived willingly.

It is almost obvious that I have rebellious bones in the back of my head;

In the first two years after waking up, I thought my acting skills were superb, but in fact it was very jerky.

The first emperor once gave me a sign, telling me to go to the Huxin Pavilion to see the third prince when I have nothing to do;

The old king of Zhenbei invited me to eat roast lamb leg in the imperial garden, and asked me questions. I thought I answered wonderfully, but he wanted to return me to the Zhenbei army immediately afterward?

Do you really feel sorry for me just because I am a native of Beifeng County?

In the earliest days, Lao Tian was deliberately grinding my temper.

hehe,

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, but I dragged them to show off and talk about Liaozhai;

After I sat on the throne, I looked back and felt that I was still a little tender back then.

Thank them for their grace of not killing them back then,

Today I am Zheng Fan,

Give the late emperor a face,

Give old Zhenbei Wang a face,

Give face to Yan Dierlang, who has followed me through life and death all these years,

For this big swallow,

Save face! "

Si Niang came over with the royal clothes and helped Zheng Fan change.

The king's clothes of the regent have long been out of the scope of the vassal's python robe. In terms of standard, most of them follow the regulations of Dayan's dragon robe. Ji Laoliu, who is willing to sit with the dragon chair, will naturally not be stingy with a set clothing.

The main body of the king's clothes is black, embroidered with golden dragons, matching the crown, exuding a majestic air.

However, although it is said that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, they refer to bright and beautiful clothes, such as python robes and dragon robes. On the contrary, they need the wearer's own aura to support them, otherwise it is easy to have the opposite effect .

"how?"

Zheng Fan looked at Si Niang and asked.

"Majestic and dignified." Siniang replied very seriously, "My husband is a veritable king."

Siniang took two steps back and carefully looked at her man.

I still remember that in order to let Zheng Fan advance early, Si Niang helped to stimulate it with her hands;

At that time, he actually had a deep sense of vigilance and vigilance towards the devil king and the world, often with a forced composure.

Now,

This little man of his own has finally completed his transformation and precipitation in middle age, and Si Niang also has indescribable satisfaction in her heart.

It seems that all of this happened overnight, and it seems that the little changes over the years are so real.

She never denied her indifference to the love between men and women,

Even after the son was born, she would feel annoyed;

maybe,

husband and wife,

It’s such a kind of companionship, it’s too simple and pale to just talk about growing old together by companionship;

The real fit and staying together come more from the fusion and harmony of the soul.

Pixiu, who was lying there beside him, saw that Zheng Fan had changed into the king's clothes, and slowly raised his head, his big eyes seemed to light up.

"A Ming, knife."

"yes."

A Ming handed Wu Ya up;

Dressed in the regent's suit and holding a knife, this feeling seemed to stand up immediately.

outside,

Jinyi's personal guards are ready.

When Zheng Fan came out, Eunuch Huang, who had been standing by for a long time, stared blankly. He had heard the shouts and movements outside, and combined with the foreshadowing of the continuous retreat of the Yan army to Zhennan Pass in the past few days, let him, the supervisor, The eunuch was also extremely uneasy.

He knows that he is a mascot most of the time, but as a mascot, he is also afraid that he will not work this time.

But seeing the regent coming out in royal clothes,

Eunuch Huang's restless heart seemed to be soothed at this moment;

Then muttered a taboo word in my heart, seeing the regent, just like when I saw the first emperor back then, it seemed that no matter how dangerous the situation was, it was nothing to worry about.

Pixiu came out from behind, with four hooves firmly on the green bricks, trying to make his posture look more heroic;

Immediately afterwards,

body trembled,

From its back, a layer of delicate scales with black luster spread down, covering the whole body;

From the nostrils, two scorching breaths also spewed out, the air of a beast can be described as full.

Zheng Fan walked towards Pixiu,

Pixiu, who was still immersed in showing his beautiful emotions, sensed the gaze from his master and silently knelt down.

Zheng Fan stretched out his palm and turned over to sit on it.

Pixiu stood up, and let out a low voice:

"Roar!"

The mane on the body also began to diverge.

The guards in brocade clothes mounted their horses one after another;

Pixiu took a step forward and walked out of the Nanguan Commander's Mansion.

For ordinary people, the pure-blood Pixiu has its own sense of mystery and solemnity, not to mention, the prince who is more respected and fanatical than Pixiu is sitting on its back at this time.

On both sides of the street, there were quite a few civilians who subconsciously stopped;

There are also wounded soldiers who have just been transported from the front line, silently clenching their fists and placing them on their chests.

The prince didn't stop to talk to them,

I don't know since when,

He no longer likes to make speeches or lectures.

in memory,

The last time we did pre-war mobilization seriously was when we were in Qianguo.

Please, all of you, die for me;

Then, eight thousand cavalry went to die to open the way.

This is a knot that has been tied in Zheng Fan's heart.

My former self may have felt that it was worthwhile to boost morale before the war, as long as he could win the war.

And I have been winning battles all the time, as long as I can win, I can naturally do everything I can.

That match was also won, after all, Qian Guo Shangjing was taken away;

But for that local campaign,

These dying soldiers did not defeat the enemy in front of them, and did not celebrate happily after the prohibition was lifted after the war, drinking wine and holding the enemy's helmet, singing and dancing;

They just opened the way for themselves and let themselves escape.

Of course, this is not the main reason.

Zheng Fan is a moral person, but his morality is often just for his own comfort, covering his body to keep out the cold;

When you don't need it, you can throw it on the ground without any scruples, and you don't think the ground is dirty.

No more pre-war lectures,

It's because it's no longer necessary.

I still remember that when I went out with Tian Wujing, the back of the Pixiu in gilt armor was followed by thousands of troops;

No need for a word,

He instigated the mount under his crotch and began to charge,

With a hundred thousand cavalry behind him, they will naturally follow closely behind, crushing all the enemies in front of them!

Back then, Zheng Fan felt that it was because Lao Tian himself was a peak martial artist, and because he was very strong, he dared to charge at the forefront;

After waiting,

Zheng Fan gradually came to his senses.

It's not because Lao Tian was the first to have this effect,

In fact,

It has nothing to do with whether he is the first one or stays in the middle or stays behind.

The soldiers only need to know that he is here and King Jingnan is here, that's enough.

They are willing to do whatever it takes to break through their former enemies so that their princes don't even need to draw their swords. This is their belief and their fanaticism.

Liu Dahu raised his arms,

The brocade-clothed personal guards at the front of both sides raised the flag.

The Black Dragon Banner of the Great Swallow, the Double-headed Eagle Banner of the Jindong Army, and the banner of the Regent himself.

Liu Dahu drew out his saber again and raised it horizontally.

The rest of the brocade-clothed guards all drew their knives and held them by their sides.

The team still keeps moving forward, but the suffocating atmosphere has already arrived, just like before a storm, the unbearable sultry heat makes people can't help but look forward to the next thunder.

The location of the city wall where the fierce battle took place is getting closer and closer, and there are more and more auxiliary soldiers, civilian husbands, and soldiers waiting to be replaced.

The Chu people's last round of offensive had just ended, and many people were panting.

Then,

They saw their lord, riding a pixiu, walking in the forefront, and behind him was his royal army;

The soldiers put their fists on the armor on their chests one after another. According to the military laws of Jindong and Dayan, there is no need to salute in wartime.

However, there are still many inexperienced auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands who followed their instincts and knelt down.

On the city wall, Xue San, who was sitting and drinking water with Fan Li, dangled his three legs and looked over here.

The third master reached out and poked Fan Li's arm,

road;

"Did you find out, my lord, I really became my lord."

Fan Li glanced at Xue San, but said nothing.

"It's becoming more and more like us, king, devil king." Xue San continued.

Fan Li rolled his eyes,

road:

"He is our father."

Your dad looks like you?

Xue San frowned, he couldn't refute, because theoretically, Fan Li was right.

But the third master still realized something immediately,

road:

"Hey, I didn't expect you to say such a thing."

...

below,

A Ming, who was riding beside the prince, was looking up at the sky at the moment.

There are several falcons circling in the sky;

In fact, the efficiency of flying pigeons to send letters is very low, far less than the speed of 800 miles; this eagle and falcon is better than flying pigeons to send letters, but it is also very weak.

Because the best way to use it is to quickly transmit military orders when communication is inconvenient on a local battlefield, and this military order is extremely concise.

In the current situation, the Chu army was attacking the city, and the two wings of Zhennanguan were also fighting. The Chu army almost covered the entire battlefield in a way that was more than half round.

The scouts and light cavalry on both sides are engaged in extremely tragic fighting and consumption.

Therefore, it is very suitable to use the trained falcons to deliver military orders.

"My lord, the Yingdu Yanying and Jinying camps have taken their seats."

"The Litian Yan camp and the Jin camp have settled down."

"Qu He has taken his seat."

"The Forbidden Army of the capital city has taken their positions."

The number of troops sent by the imperial court this time was 230,000.

This is the first batch of soldiers and horses to enter Jindong, not all of them, because in the original strategic plan, this is a protracted war, so there will be more reinforcements and more civilians in the future.

The 30,000 Imperial Guards who came from the capital were the elite family members sent by Ji Lao Liu. These years, the Imperial Guards in Beijing had just started training, and their background was not very deep, but even so, Ji Lao Liu was still considered generous.

The remaining 200,000 soldiers from the Yan Camp and Jin Battalion dispatched from the three major directions of the Jin area were all regular soldiers, that is, well-equipped soldiers, and more than half of them were veterans who had experienced the last Yan-Chu war.

War will destroy the army, but war can also experience the army. Old soldiers can be said to be a guarantee for the combat effectiveness of an army.

As a vampire, Ah Ming has very good eyesight. At this moment, he is still searching the air with his eyesight.

soon,

He said:

"Li Chenghui has lost his seat."

"Alchemy is now in place."

The real main force of the Eastern Jin Army has fallen.

Moreover, these large armies have been lurking in the east, west and north of Zhennanguan a long time ago, eating and drinking well, rejuvenating their energy and recharging their energy.

Even, eager to fight.

Like a group of wolfhounds who are watching their prey right in front of them, but are chained by iron chains, they have already been struggling and roaring crazily, and an unknown amount of saliva has already dripped from the corners of their mouths. A large beach must be accumulated.

But the one locked up for them was Dayan's regent. They couldn't make mistakes, and they didn't dare to make mistakes. It was impossible for them to rush and attack in pursuit of merit.

In Jindong,

No,

In the entire Great Yan army,

No one dares to disobey the military order from the Regent!

this is status,

This is Pai Nian.

Restraining hundreds of thousands of ordinary people is already a huge headache. Restraining hundreds of thousands of Qiu Ba who has killed people in battle is even more difficult.

Therefore, Qianren will be in great pain after losing Mr. Thorn and Mr. Zhong again, because even if they can gather an army, there is no one who can come forward and rule them well;

Therefore, after the Chu people lose Zhuguo and the generals one after another, they will be extremely cramped. This is not something that can be implemented immediately by the court or the emperor adding officials and ranks to give Shang Fang a sword;

Qiu Ba, who lives with his head tied to his trouser belt, is so red-eyed that he can't even recognize the emperor!

Therefore, a military god is really the most important thing for a country, the most precious of all.

Zheng Fan pointed forward,

road;

"Open the city gate."

"The prince has an order to open the city gate!"

"Pass the order of the prince, open the gate of the city!!"

"Wang Ling, open the city gate!"

The gate of Zhennan Pass was opened.

The Chu army who had just finished a fruitless offensive and was retreating to prepare for the next round of offensive was somewhat puzzled. It is understandable that the Yan army went out of the city to charge and kill when they attacked the city before. Now, what are the Yan people going to do?

far away,

Xiong Tingshan, who was standing on the shaft and commanding the battle, suddenly felt the pain from the position of his severed arm after seeing this scene.

A kind of panic, a feeling of uneasiness is enveloping.

Then, the defenders in the city, including infantry and cavalry, left the city one after another and began to line up.

Faced with this situation, the Chu army, who originally planned to take a breather, also began to regroup under the organization of their respective generals. As the siege party, they can be said to have suffered enough from the high city of Zhennanguan City and the abundance of defensive ordnance, unless Order from above, otherwise they would of course prefer the defenders to come out by themselves.

Zheng Fan rode Pixiu out of the city gate.

The cold wind whizzes past thousands of troops, but here, it is gentle;

Wearing a noble black royal robe,

Even the sleeves were never blown up.

Zheng Fan looked at the dark and invisible Chu army in front of him,

suddenly,

There seemed to be a phantom of a fire phoenix, spreading its wings from the front, neighing at him.

Qi refiners and other things, if you talk about it, you can't escape the sentence: Believe it or not.

But a thing has existed for so long, and there is always a little reason for it;

Just like the fire phoenix that appeared in Zheng Fan's field of vision at this moment,

It may not exist, it may exist;

Even, it may just be a conjecture in my mind... the incarnation of the Great Chu Kingdom.

it roars,

Endless flames poured down from its body.

If at this time, someone stood in front of the prince and looked back, maybe he could see the reflection of the light in the prince's eyes.

The brave Pixiu on the crotch is also rare to put away all frivolous looks, as if the natural enemy is right in front of him, with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Hurry up, don't you want to cut off the dragon's veins? Cut it off and show me. I'll just wait and see."

"The family has a poor foundation. There is only one leg of lamb. I can't get enough to eat. What's the point of fighting over it?"

"In my opinion, there are two types of iron cavalry in the world. One is my Dayan iron cavalry; the other is not mentioned."

"Brother Zheng, this time my brother and I have had a great time killing!"

"Surnamed Zheng, come here, let's sit on this dragon chair together."

...

"hehe."

Zheng Fan closed his eyes,

slowly opened again,

From the scabbard, Wu Ya was slowly pulled out,

immediately,

Cut forward!
