I am the man who wants to be the immortal and the devil emperor

"'Qianlong' Shi Chongyun will definitely focus all his attention on the Huai River, and there is no time for him to attend to the matters in the northwest. And I also have a feeling..."

She smiled slightly, like a spring breeze, infecting this cold and chilling land: "They know that you and I will never sit idly by Ding Moshen's ambitions. A kind of tacit understanding between them?"

In Suizhou City, Shi Hao is very busy, but also very free at the same time.

He is busy because he needs to appear everywhere, sometimes in front of the soldiers to further boost their morale, and sometimes in front of the people to make them feel at ease.

At the same time, we also need to condolences to the injured soldiers, refer to the progress of various aspects, and give pointers on some things that are not really necessary, but show their sense of existence.

His leisure is because everything is in an orderly manner and operates according to the established rules. Even without him, there will be no major deviations.

As a time traveler, Shi Hao naturally paid more attention to the construction of the system than anyone else.

Therefore, under his advocacy, the Dongting Army has focused on the construction of various systems from the beginning, and up to now, these systems have achieved certain results.

At the beginning, neither Qimu Laodao nor Xuanfeng Huanzhi understood how much he attached great importance to this aspect.

But after all, he is the magic commander and the backbone of the entire Dongting army, so he still carried out the most difficult change from the beginning according to his instructions.

And when these are gradually becoming complete, they find that once the most difficult part is done, everything will gradually become easier.

If an army wants to implement orders and prohibitions, it must have laws to follow and laws to abide by from the very beginning.

Driven by Moshuai, they attach more importance to "law" than any other force in the world today.

The Dongting army rested in Suizhou for a day and began to advance to Guangzhou.

At the same time, the barbarians were also gathering troops from Dengzhou, Tangzhou, Xuzhou, Chenzhou, Haozhou, Songzhou, Bianzhou, and Yingzhou.

Three days later, the city of Gwangju was broken.

At the same time, 30 barbarian soldiers crushed Suizhou and Gwangju, and a great battle around the upper reaches of the Huai River broke out quickly.

-

"The commander-in-chief of the Dongting Army sent people to invite our army to march northward, to press into Chuzhou, and to join forces in Gaoyou City!" Li Xiuer was wearing a dark golden Suzaku soft armor and a red gold crown on her head, with a heroic appearance.

She stood on the steps and looked around at the generals.

Behind her stood two maids, these two maids were Red Poison Orchid and Green Teng Niang sent by the sect to protect her, they were masters of the previous generation of the three sects.

This time, she was able to resist the barbarian army and take down Guangling and Gusu, which greatly increased her reputation.

The number of warriors who came to serve has also increased, and the military strength has also been further expanded.

She said loudly: "The same invitation has also been sent to the Dragon and Phoenix Society. The Dragon and Phoenix Society has dispatched a large number of warships to target Chaohu Lake and enter the north bank of the Changhe River. Once our army is dispatched, there will be three routes of troops, among which the Dongting Army will come from the east. , our army and the Dragon and Phoenix Society are all heading north. I wonder if you have any opinions?"

A general stepped forward and said: "General Manager, the key point of this battle is that the Dongting Army can defend Suizhou and Guangzhou. The barbarian army has 30 people, and the troops are still gathering. The Dongting Army is only [-]. They rely on quick attacks If the two prefectures in the upper reaches of the Huaihe River cannot be defended, with the strength of the barbarian army, they can go down the Huaihe River in a blink of an eye, and our army will be in danger by then."

Li Xiuer said: "In spite of this, in the battle of Taihu Lake, the Dongting Army not only agreed to the Leopard Army to come to assist our army, but also urgently dispatched two generals, Li Yiming and Gui Xiaoren, to lead their elites to thousands of miles to help us, and only then did they successfully help our army defend Taihu Lake.

"Return the peaches and rewards, what should be done. Now that the Dongting army is attacking the Huai River, if our army does not send troops to divide the strength of the barbarian army, it will not take long before the troops in the stomach can be suppressed with all their strength. It is not the 30 barbarian army. The Dongting army is [-]. Once the Dongting army is wiped out, it will be difficult for our army to go north."

The generals discussed in low voices.

Li Xiu'er was not in a hurry. When they finished their discussion, she stepped down the steps and said with her hands behind her back: "The battlefield has no eyes, and the barbarian army is a centipede. It is dead but not stiff! Once our army sends troops, there is no room for retreat. Attack If Chuzhou fails, the troops will be lost, and Guangling City, which was finally captured, will also be lost, and the lower reaches of the Changhe River will return to the control of the barbarians.

"It's only natural that you have concerns!"

She walked through the generals and continued: "However, since ancient times, there has never been a reason for defending Jiangsu and Zhejiang to form a self-contained country. Jiangsu and Zhejiang have a lot of money and food, and it is not a place for military strategists. In the short term It's okay to be on the sidelines. After a long time, neither party will let go of such a big piece of fat.

"Our foothold is located in the southeast. The terrain is flat and difficult to defend. There are many waterways that are conducive to the enemy's troop transport. Why can this barbarian army be suppressed so quickly? It is because of the Grand Canal.

"Xuzhou is the real battleground for military strategists. If our army cannot go north to capture Xuzhou, it will take a long time. Whoever occupies Xuzhou will be our enemy. With the Grand Canal, our side will be annexed sooner or later.

"It is precisely because of this that the Dongting Army invited our army to send troops to join forces with Gaoyou, in fact, let us force together to force Xuzhou, and then see who can seize this must-be-contested land first.

"Let's put it this way, if we don't take Xuzhou, our army will be wiped out sooner or later. At that time, the little girl will have to die to keep her innocence. Then retreat."

The two generals Xiao Siyu and Jing Shang are Li Xiuer's confidantes, and they said in unison: "We all obey the order of the general manager."

Li Xiuer nodded slightly.But another general said anxiously: "Li Chenglong should not be trusted. What if he gathers warships at Poyang Lake, but instead of attacking Chaohu, instead takes advantage of our army's attack on Chuzhou, turns around and attacks Guangling, and takes our Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces? What will happen? "

Li Xiu'er thought, "What a stupid question?"

But he still carefully explained: "Li Chenglong is not a fool. The name he played is the descendant of the prosperous dynasty, destroying the barbarian and restoring the country. This is his righteousness. The barbarian court has not yet been overthrown. Instead, he first attacked our army and violated Huangshan. The covenant will make the people of Wulin furious, lose righteousness, and make the whole world abandon it.

"Unless he is really cornered, he will never be so stupid. And even if he is really cornered, he should go to Dongting Lake. Again, although Jiangsu and Zhejiang are good, they are not the battlegrounds for military strategists.

"If there is only Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang, and no Xuzhou and Jingzhou, it will be safe in the short term, but in the long run, it will be impossible to defend. Therefore, it is the Dongting army, not our army, that needs to worry about the betrayal of the Dragon and Phoenix army!"

The general suddenly realized that he had just retreated.

Li Xiu'er was speechless for such a simple matter, and still needed to explain it to him, she turned around and went up the steps again, and said, "Who has any doubts?"

All the generals bowed and said: "Please give the order to send troops."

Li Xiu'er said: "In that case, General You Hong!"

You Hong took a step forward: "The end is here!"

Li Xiu'er said: "You take the general's order, and the navy leader will go to the sea first to prevent the invasion of the sea shark gang, so that our army will have no worries."

You Hong said: "The final general obeys orders!" He led the arrow and left.

Li Xiu'er said again: "General Xiao Siyu!"

Xiao Siyu stepped forward and said: "The end is here!"

……

Li Xiu'er already had a well-thought-out plan, and her strategy and tactics had already been passed on by Long Niu in the dark, and she discussed back and forth with the young master and Xuanfeng altar master, so the orders were issued one by one without any confusion.

As if a few flames had ignited the already dry firewood, the situation in the north of the Changhe developed extremely fast.

In a very short period of time, the north bank of the Changhe River was surrounded by soldiers.

In the various cities of the barbarian army, soldiers and horses were frequently mobilized. At the same time, many cottages and gangsters in the Huai River area were all involved in the battlefield due to various circumstances.

One village was wiped out by the barbarian army, and the other village gathered the people from the surrounding towns. They cut down trees as soldiers and raised poles as flags. The barbarians came and killed the villagers and the people in a river of blood soon. For a time, an unknown number of refugees were forced to flee.

At that time, the twelfth lunar month had just come to an end, and it was already boiling everywhere.

The offensive and defensive battles surrounding Suizhou and Gwangju were like gathering firecrackers, spirits, fire oil, etc. in a cauldron.

Then a fire was lit.

The flames that exploded burned in all directions, sweeping across the world.

Chapter 411 Lu Tong, Long Qiu, Xuan Jun

Twenty miles east of Haozhou City, there is a mountain named Dongbailing.

At this moment, there are hundreds of warriors lurking here.

There is still white snow on the tall pine trees.

Although there has been no snow for more than half a month, the snow has not completely dissipated, and the weather is extremely cold.

On the leeward slope, a woman named Lu Tong faced the boulder with her back wrapped in a worn-out padded jacket.

Around her, other warriors were also lurking. Although it was freezing, they did not dare to light the bonfire.

Although it is hidden in the lee, it is on the mountain after all, the chill penetrates to the bone marrow, and the breath it exhales is in the shape of white mist.

Lu Tong was running around these days. At the beginning, as a member of the Dark Thunder Society, she joined the anti-barbarian rebel army in Changbai Mountain, and lit the first flame to resist the barbarian court.

The Changbai Mountain Rebel Army was defeated, and she fled to Liaobei with the remnants. Afterwards, Fu Shiyuan, the "Heroine Iron Eagle", was killed, and the Dark Thunder Society was also disbanded.

She moved around with the remaining group of people, still insisting on resisting the barbarian court.

They continued to fight against the barbarians in Liaodong, and the people around them changed group after group, causing heavy casualties.

Afterwards, he hid in Tibet, turned back to the Qinling Mountains, and soon continued to flee under the pursuit of the Six Gates.

The people around him were dead and scattered, and there were not many familiar faces left.

But these people who have been reunited still feel like a family.

Because they all have a passion and are willing to go through fire and water to overthrow the barbarian court and save the world.

The barbarian court is not destroyed, why is it home?Even with their last breath left, they would never let go of the knife that slashed at the barbarian army.

Failure is their most numb memory.

—The uprisings again and again, the fights one after another, the blood filled the eyes, and the past was full of bright red.

Even in the most desperate situations, they never gave up.

Although Lu Tong was young, his skin became rough due to the constant fighting these days, and there was a shallow wound on his cheek. Although the wound was not deep, it also left a scar.

The knife at that time almost cut her throat.

If there is a Taoist panacea, such an injury will not leave scars, but among the remnants of the rebel army who are running and fleeing, even the most common golden sore medicine is sparingly used, so where can I get any panacea?

Therefore, this scar remained on her cheek like this.

Even so, it wasn't the only wound on her body.

In the constant running, fighting, and fleeing, she always remembered that one person.

Although she didn't spend too long with that person.

That person's name was called "Frenzied Swordsman"... Now he is called "Frenzied Swordsman".

In fact, even the title of "Frenzied Sword Hero" was taken by her at that time... Of course, now, except for herself, basically no one knows about it.

It was his first famous battle in the martial arts world, killing the "Hell Iron Bow" with flying steps, and killing the "Flying Scorpion Knife" with a single blow.

At that moment, she witnessed his majestic back with her own eyes, and was moved by it.

And earlier, when they were in Shu, they actually had many contacts.

Afterwards, those members of the Dark Thunder Society were all discussing him, and it was she who pretended to be inadvertent and gave him the title of "Crazy Sword Hero".

His appearance does look vicious, but what he did was chivalrous.

In Jianghu, not everyone's name can carry the word "Xia".

Lu Tong was deeply afraid that those people would give him some messy names. Once all kinds of weird names in the world were called out, it would be difficult to change them.

So she played a narrow-minded role, and said such a blunt but useful name first... She also wanted to get a more elegant name, but a name that is too elegant is usually ineffective for those Jianghu people .

It is precisely because the title of "Crazy Sword Hero" was spread by the Dark Thunder Society that it was quickly spread throughout the world and gained recognition.

But later, the "Frenzy Sword Man" turned into a Crazy Sword Demon Man.

Is he actually a member of the Demon Sect, or a "young master"?Such news shocked Lu Tong extremely at the time.

Her understanding of Demon Sect is quite limited, but deep down, she still firmly believes that he is definitely a chivalrous man.

Later, the Demon Sword Man became the commander in chief of the Dongting Army.

And she has been listening to rumors about him in the world, all kinds of rumors, true and false.

But because he had a recognized chivalrous name from the very beginning, and participated in the Battle of Overlord's Underground Palace, he had a chance of victory in the key battle to kill the Barbarian Supreme Emperor.

Therefore, these rumors are generally on the positive side... This is completely different from the treatment of other people in the Demon Sect.

In just these few months, she felt that that person was already so powerful that she couldn't reach it.

The only thing that made her secretly, somewhat excited, was that she knew him before he was famous in the martial arts world.

I helped him get his name... Whenever she heard news about him in Jianghu, she would think about it silently in her heart.

Although she and him are basically people from two worlds.

He has become a well-known figure in the martial arts world, the magic commander of the Dongting Army, but she is still just the lowest level martial artist in the world, a low-rank warrior who lives today and does not know whether she will die tomorrow.

She originally cultivated external skills, after all the fights, her skin has long since become dry, and her waist has also become thick.

Sometimes facing the icy water and looking at myself, my face is full of wind and frost, as if I am no longer the young woman who just entered the rivers and lakes a year ago and wanted to become a heroine.

The cotton-padded jacket on her body was worn out and turned yellow, the cold wind blew around the hillside, and the thin scar on her face was painfully scratched, as if reminding her of something faintly.

Now she, even if she has time to dress up, she can't talk about any beauty.

But she doesn't care about these!Because she knows that what she does is what she wants to do and the right thing to do.

On the other side of the path, someone sneaked up and waved to them.

Everyone moved, bowing their bodies like cheetahs, sneaking from the forest, approaching the barbarian army at the foot of the mountain.

They were quiet, but their blood was still boiling. The cold wind froze their bodies, but the hot blood in their bodies quickly warmed them up again.

The knife that slashed at the barbarian soldiers and generals was still held firmly in his hand.
