The devil is coming

Chapter 141 Entering the city!
The war horses gallop, the cold wind blows on the face, the armor of the soldiers is cold, and the swords are stained with frost;
This is by no means a comfortable experience, but most men have imagined this image in their minds.
Zheng Fan discovered,
I probably really like Dayan.
Although I had seen so many tragedies in Dayan;
But putting aside his personal human emotions, he really likes Dayan's... freedom.
Bring soldiers to kill people, indulge in indulgence, and wander around. The vast land is up to you.
Perhaps, in this world, only Dayan can give herself this kind of freedom.
Zheng Fan didn't know how long this kind of freedom and indulgence could last, but it didn't stop Zheng Fan from enjoying it at this time.
Come out and play,
Just have fun,
Stop worrying about mortgage and car payments and endless overtime after vacation.
Zheng Fan knew that the demon kings under him were also very excited.
Needless to say, Liang Cheng has always had a strong obsession with returning to his old career of leading troops.
It was also a pain for him. The background of Liang Cheng's comics was in modern times. In a modern setting, he naturally couldn't lead thousands of troops to gallop.
The rest of the people were really depressed.
Siniang, Blind Man, Xue San, Fan Li, and A Ming, this time, they can finally no longer fight like before, but can vent freely.
"Ha ha…………"
Zheng Fan smiled, even though the cold wind numbed his lips and teeth, he still wanted to smile, because he suddenly felt,
This time he led [-] cavalry into the territory of Qian Kingdom.
This is not so much a border war,
Rather, it is a collective team building of my own Demon King Company.
Hold it back, don't laugh, don't ruin the atmosphere.
Mianzhou City, such a friendly city, it stays there so quietly, with a friendly and humble attitude, waiting for its blessing again and again.
However, this time there were some twists and turns.
The last time, Zheng Fan led [-] barbarian soldiers and drove straight here without encountering any obstruction, and the gate of the city was not closed yet.
But this time, Zheng Fan and others actually encountered three waves of scouts.
However, with Xue San's assassination and Blind Bei's prediction, the three waves of scouts did not really play their role, leaving Huo Guang to take the children of the Huo family to deal with them.
It's just that there are not many heads, far less than Zuo Jiqian, who "made a fortune" in that fortress before.
But Huo Guang is not in a hurry, because he knows that the real drama has not yet begun.
The team stopped outside Mianzhou City.
However, Zheng Fan could not find the tomb he had erected when he came last time.
The old man with the gun, everyone retreated and walked alone, trying to stop hundreds of barbarian cavalry with a long gun.
And the man who knew he was going to die but still hid on the tower and shot that arrow at himself.
There are only two men in a city.
In these two men, Zheng Fan, as the "invader", saw bloody nature. Although this bloody nature could not really affect the overall situation, it was worthy of respect.
The grave is gone.
Liang Cheng stood behind Zheng Fan. He knew what the Lord was looking for.
"That old man?" Blind Man Bei asked Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng nodded.
Blind Man Bei smiled, walked forward and said to Zheng Fan:
"My lord, my subordinates didn't tell you about this. According to the news from Qianguo, my lord attacked Mianzhou City last time. The official statement of Qianguo is that the prefect of Mianzhou City fought desperately and the city was destroyed. People die.”
"Ah."
Zheng Fan smiled,
He still remembered the scene he saw when he rushed into the backyard of the government office that day.
The prefect was having a party there with his officials and his family, and he even took drugs.
"The ones buried here on that day, Lord, were a father and his son."
"Oh, is it?"
"Yes."
"Oh."
His father, who went upstream when the crowd dispersed, was killed by his own barbarians.
The son, however, has been waiting on the tower, waiting for him to come out to avenge his father.
I'm used to seeing Xiao Yibo, I'm used to seeing the Sixth Prince and Emperor Yan, I'm used to seeing people like Jingnan Marquis,
Thinking again about the father and son whose bones he had buried here, Zheng Fan felt that this was the normal relationship between father and son.
What I have encountered before are all extreme cases.
"They were accused of collaborating with the enemy. They were said to be internal agents who opened the city gates."
"Hehehe..."
Zheng Fan laughed out loud.
"This is an official propaganda need, and the imperial court of the Qian Kingdom must promote it in this way."
When an embarrassing situation occurs, the first reaction is to eliminate the negative impact.
Obviously, it is impossible for the Qianguo court to publicize the truth about the destruction of Mianzhou City. Four hundred Yanguo cavalry can destroy the city. What kind of impact will that have on the confidence of the soldiers and civilians of Qianguo?
Throwing dirty water on the dead is also the most appropriate choice, because the dead cannot speak, and at the same time, the living must live well.
According to the custom of Qian Country, this arrangement is reasonable.
"Tsk...I don't like this." Zheng Fan said.
He didn't feel much resentment for the father and son, he was just simply disgusted.
"Lord, this city is heavily fortified."
Zheng Fan nodded. Compared to the last time he came, this city did give people a different feeling. First of all, the city gate finally learned to close.
Moreover, guards can be seen patrolling the city walls.
These should actually be the most basic things, but the last time they came, they didn't even have the most basic things. There was only an old man jumping off the city wall with a double-headed gun.
Zheng Fan was not nervous, nor did he feel a headache, because last time, there were only [-] barbarians on his side, but this time, there were [-] cavalry.
The other party has learned to be vigilant, but his side has become stronger.
Of course, it is impossible to attack the city. Even if Zheng Fan is willing to do so, the Sixth Prince who is far away in Yanjing cannot be willing to do so.
He spent all his hard work to raise troops for Zheng Fan, not to use them as cannon fodder to attack the city.
If you go to Beijing to attack Qian Country, there will be no problem, but if you attack here... haha, it's not worth it.
Moreover, when everyone came at a high speed, there was no siege equipment to use, not even a ladder. Could it be that everyone was cutting down trees to do it now?
"Still stealing a**."
Zheng Fan said.
Blind Bei nodded.
Stealing chickens is the best choice, and stealing chickens is addictive.
Last time, the city gate was opened and blocked by itself, giving Zheng Fan an opportunity.
This time, Zheng Fan planned to work harder and open the door himself.
Other generals may not be able to use this kind of tactics in battle, but Zheng Fan is different. There are many masters in his team, including seven demon kings. Although he does not have the real demon king style yet, it will be no problem to use it as a special brigade, right?
"That's right, blind man."
"Lord, you say."
"I'm wondering, if we charge now, and you charge first, after reaching the city gate, can you use your mind power to directly open the city gate bolt?"
Blind Bei was stunned for a moment.
Because it eliminates the possibility of being shot into a hornet's nest, this is indeed a very groundbreaking idea.
It was very exciting to think about running to the city gate and unlocking it in a grand manner.
But the blind man Beimao said:
"My lord, this gate is made of iron."
"Oh, and then what?"
"The latch of the city gate is not that easy to open."
Usually, it takes several people to work together to open it.
"My subordinates' mental power may not be able to reach this level."
It's no problem to push yourself and control the needle, but to open the door latch and let the following people directly knock open the city gate, the blind man has no absolute confidence.
Even though Zheng Fan entered the eighth level and everyone's strength regained another level, the blind man still didn't have absolute confidence.
If everyone rushed over and couldn't open the city gate, wouldn't it be like running downstairs to wait for someone to shoot him like a sand sculpture?
"Well, when we return to the fortress next time, we will make a door ourselves. When you have nothing to do, just exercise and practice."
"Yes, my lord."
"So, let's choose special forces tactics."
"The subordinates think so too."
"Liang Cheng stays and leads the army."
There must be one person staying here to control this unit, and Liang Cheng is naturally the best candidate. Of course, so is Zheng Fan, but as a leader, how can he stay behind when he is having fun?
"My lord is wise."
The blind man knew that in terms of strength alone, Zheng Fan should be the weakest among the demon kings, even if he was an eighth-level warrior.
But with the magic pill on his body, Zheng Fan suddenly became the strongest among everyone.
"Let everyone prepare."
.........
Except for a hundred barbarian cavalry sent out as sentries to guard the surrounding area, the rest of the troops dismounted and took off their armor under Liang Cheng's order and began to rest.
To make such a move here is a very excessive behavior. The reason why Liang Cheng dared to do this was firstly based on his understanding of the quality of the army, and secondly because of his confidence in the barbarian cavalry. With them around, As a warning, Liang Cheng believed that unless there were more than a dozen Xue San in the attacking team, it would be impossible to sneak in here and launch an attack.
Huo Guang and Zuo Jiqian sat behind Liang Cheng. Both of them were actually a little nervous, but at this time they were carefully adjusting and taking care of the qi and blood in their bodies.
And in front,
Zheng Fan is taking the blind man, Siniang, Fan Li, Xue San and A Ming to warm up - the time is calling!
Doing broadcast gymnastics in public is something that makes people feel very ashamed.
But Zheng Fan still stood at the front, shouting slogans and leading the exercises.
Siniang, Xue San, Fan Li, A Ming and the blind man all followed carefully.
Stretching exercises, one, two, three, four...
Breast expansion exercise, one, two, three, four...
Liang Cheng, who was sitting in the back, looked at the scene in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched subconsciously.
At this time, he was a little lucky. Fortunately, the Lord allowed him to stay and control the troops, otherwise he would have to...
"Sir, what kind of move is this?"
Huo Guang on the side asked Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng actually had no official position, but they were well aware of Liang Cheng's status in Cuiliu Fort. At the same time, they were even more impressed by Liang Cheng's ability to lead troops.
Zuo Jiqian said in a deep voice:
"These moves may seem unremarkable at first glance, but upon careful consideration, they reveal a perfect and natural truth."
"..." Liang Cheng.
These two people are not flattering, but truly feel that this is a unique way of training for a certain sect.
Obviously it was not only Huo Guang and Zuo Jiqian who had this idea, but also the members of the Huo and Zuo families sitting behind them.
From their perspective,
Cuiliu Castle naturally belongs to Zheng Fan, but around Zheng Fan, there are a group of strange people and strangers. At the moment, they seem to be getting a glimpse of the real secrets of strange people and strangers!
Some people, even though they were sitting, could not help but imitate the movements with their arms, and were still trying to remember them in their minds.
This is actually not surprising. For later generations to be able to promote gymnastics nationwide, the essentials of their movements must have been demonstrated and studied in many ways.
In fact, people who are actually doing exercises, including the blind man, don't feel any shame in their hearts.
Everyone is doing it with a smile,
This feeling is just like if you went to Lhasa and posted on WeChat Moments "Ah, I feel like my soul has been purified" in future generations, you would be considered awkward;
But if you take a yacht with a lot of young models and do nothing but go to the high seas to have a barbecue and clap your hands and then come back, it will make people feel very cool.
In this atmosphere and scene, it is really interesting to do a set of radio gymnastics.
Anyway, everyone comes out, the most important thing is to be happy.
After finishing the gymnastics, I turned around and said hello to Liang Cheng. Six people in total began to sneak in.
The defense of Mianzhou City is indeed decent. At the same time, because of the escalation of the Yan-Qian conflict and the interruption of the Silk Road here, the caravans that were originally active here have also disappeared, so it seems a little deserted.
However, the city wall is very wide and large, and it is night time. Unless the city wall is filled with people, it is really difficult to prevent small groups of people from sneaking in and approaching.
Zheng Fan and others carefully reached the bottom of the city wall. Xue San tied ropes and iron claws to his body and began to climb up.
Seeing Xue San's deft and fast movements, Zheng Fan felt that Xue San was really a must-have product for war and travel.
After Xue San went up, he quickly fixed the iron claws while watching the patrol, and dropped the two ropes.
A Ming and Blind Bei are one person and one person.
A Ming still relied on agility and speed to start climbing with the strength of the rope. Blind Bei was much more elegant. He just used his hands to borrow a little strength and balance from the rope, and then began to push himself down with his mind, even faster than A Ming. A lot faster.
After these two people climbed up, Zheng Fan, Siniang and Fan Li began to climb.
Finally, Zheng Fan came up and saw the bodies of two soldiers lying on the ground.
With Xue San and Blind Beiqian on top, there are really too many ways to kill the two patrolling soldiers quietly.
Everyone came up and started walking towards the city stairs.
Another tradition in Cuiliu Castle is that the blind man leads the way.
The blind man walked first, telling everyone from time to time where someone was stationed and patrolled. If they couldn't avoid it, Xue San or A Ming would go up and deal with it.
In this way, everyone walked to the city smoothly.
There were about twenty soldiers at the city gate, leaning or lying around, but no one was sleeping.
"Get ready to do it."
Zheng Fan took out his knife.
Fan Li slapped his chest, reached out and grabbed a large cart beside him, lifted it up in front of him, and then started to charge!
The reason for this method is because the location after going down the city ladder is a bit far from the city gate and there is no obstruction.
The soldiers at the gate of the city reacted, some started shouting and others started to draw their bows and nock arrows.
"Whoosh whoosh!!!"
More than a dozen arrows were shot over. This was diagonally above the sentry tower, and guards also joined in the shooting.
But these arrows were blocked by Fan Li's wooden cart, and everyone started running behind Fan Li.
Xue San was the first to break away from the line, and used his hands and feet to rush up to the sentry tower in an extremely exaggerated and swift manner. Soon, two muffled groans came from the sentry tower, and no more arrows came down.
And below, when Zheng Fan and others rushed to the city gate, Fan Li roared and smashed the cart in his hand, and four or five soldiers were directly overturned by the cart.
Blind Bei spread his hands and released his mental power. All five soldiers on the left were stunned and stopped moving.
Siniang's fingertips flicked out, and the embroidery needles came out one after another. This time, Siniang did not pursue any artistic beauty, and the embroidery needles mercilessly penetrated the hearts of these soldiers.
Fan Li swung the ax in his hand, and the soldiers in front of him were all enemies. If you block his ax, you will be smashed to death, but if you don't block it, you will be hacked to death.
A Ming looked at the gap and appeared behind the two soldiers. His nails gently caressed the backs of their necks, and the two soldiers immediately collapsed to the ground.
Therefore, when Zheng Fan rushed over with a knife, there were no heads left for him, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
"Open the city gate!"
The special operations method was very successful, it could even be said to be quite successful. Although it inevitably caused a noise, and soldiers could be seen constantly gathering here, but after Fan Li roared, several people came together to help,
city ​​gate,
was pushed away.
outside,
At this time, the roar of horse hooves sounded!
.........
"Brother Meng, Brother Meng." Wen Le called out to Meng Gong.
"Mr. Wen."
"Brother Meng, you are still too reckless. Why do you contradict the prince like this?"
"Oh, the prince is really kind to me. I, I can't bear to deceive the prince."
"Mr. Wen knows that Brother Meng is a man of great ability, but please ask Brother Meng to change things a bit, otherwise this great ability will not be able to be used. Wouldn't it be a pity for me?"
"Thank you, Mr. Wen, for your advice."
"Brother Meng is serious. You don't have to worry about the prince. The prince has a very good temper. By the way, I asked someone to prepare some water and wine. It's freezing cold today. If Brother Meng doesn't mind, just let me go. Let’s warm ourselves up with a few drinks in the house.”
"Thank you, Mr. Wen, but I still have to go see the soldiers. This is inside the city. I'm afraid they will cause trouble."
"Oh, yes, haha, if Brother Meng hadn't led the first batch of local soldiers to accompany him on the road, Mr. Wen and the prince would really not have dared to go north to announce the decree at this time. These damn Yangou gangs are making a lot of noise these days. .
By the way, if Wen remembered correctly, those wolf soldiers were placed in the warehouse in the city? "
Because of the city's destruction last time and the fact that trade routes were cut off at this time, the warehouses in Mianzhou City were basically empty.
"Yes, thanks to the prince's words, otherwise the prefect might not have allowed these soldiers to enter the city."
"The native soldiers are wild and difficult to tame. It is right for the prefect to have such concerns. Brother Meng, please don't worry about them."
"Mr. Wen said something harsh."
"Let's see. Wen will accompany Brother Meng to see those native soldiers. The officials in Mianzhou have just been replaced. I don't know if they can settle these five thousand native soldiers."
