Chapter 140

I told Lei Er to agree on the map where the troops should gather.

Ren Ning entrusted the seriously wounded and sacrificed soldiers to Yuan Xingwen, and asked the military doctors at Zhennanguan to take good care of them and send them to Yingshan Camp.

The Hushou Pass has been broken, and it is only fifty miles away to return to Yingshan Daying through Zhennan Pass.

Yuan Xingwen naturally agreed to this trivial matter.

Watching Ren Ning and his party leave Tiger's Sorrow Valley in a hurry, Canglan County Captain Mo Canghai finally couldn't help but ask, "Their weird clothes are the newly invented raincoats?"

"Yes!" Yuan Xingwen nodded.

The Starfall Legion and Zhennanguan both ordered a batch of raincoats and rubber shoes, and the news spread throughout Guangxin and the three surrounding counties.

It's just that the sheriffs and lieutenants of the three neighboring counties have never seen these two things, and the rainfall in Baihua and Xiyu counties is not as exaggerated as in Guangxin county, so they have little interest.

On the contrary, Canglan County, surrounded by the sea, was a little moved.

"It looks pretty easy to use." Mo Canghai raised his head, looking thoughtfully at the vast white mist on Hushou Mountain.

Yuan Xingwen glanced at the road under his feet with a smile: "It's definitely easy to use!"

The fact that Zhennan Pass was unable to attack Hushou Pass before was not due to the incompetence of the soldiers.

In addition to the fact that there is no help from Xingluo people on the head of Beicheng and the defense force is strong, and because Zhennan Pass has been beating drums and forming formations these days, Ruan Qianren has built countless defenses between the North Gate and Hushou River. measure.

There are trenches half a foot wide and one foot deep everywhere.

Before these trenches are filled, unless the siege equipment such as the catapult boarding vehicle is disassembled and moved over, don't even try to get close to the foot of the city wall.

In addition, the road was covered with sharp barbed thorns. Fortunately, most of the soldiers in Zhennan Pass had replaced their cloth shoes with rubber shoes, otherwise, many soldiers would have injured their feet before reaching Hushou Pass.

Yuan Xingwen demonstrated the role of raincoats and rubber shoes, and the three county guards were dubious.

After a while, Mo Canghai stroked his beard and pondered: "If it is really as amazing as General Yuan said, I would like to order a batch for use when I go back."

"Don't worry, Lieutenant Mo." Yuan Xingwen was very happy: "I guarantee it in the name of the general who guards the southern gate of my town. These two things are absolutely useful."

The three of Mo Canghai looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces.

If it weren't for knowing that these raincoats and rubber shoes were first equipped by the Starfall Legion.Otherwise, seeing Yuan Xingwen's enthusiasm for sales promotion, they would inevitably think too much.

cough!
Yuan Xingwen coughed.

He is not a local sheriff, and he doesn't need to care about the livelihood of ordinary people.However, the Guangxin County Committee where Zhennanguan is located is really too poor, and several post roads in the county are about to grow weeds.

Only when the economy is revitalized and there are more caravans coming and going, can it be possible to repair the post road.

In the future, no matter where something happens, it will be more timely whether you send troops to rescue or others rush to rescue.

Yuan Xingwen had heard that the Xingluo Army had been lobbying the counties going north to repair the post roads as soon as possible after they arrived at Yingshan Camp.

Just be prepared for a rainy day.

Rubber products such as raincoats and rubber shoes are all produced in Guangxin County.He casually mentioned it as an advertisement.

Several people chatted for a few more words, and Yuan Xingwen took the lead to leave.

The three of Mo Canghai led the local garrison, whose combat effectiveness was relatively weak, and they didn't have too many powerful siege equipment in their hands.

The headquarters of Zhennanguan, like the Starfall Army, is a standard border guard.

Yuan Xingwen has complete facilities for defending the city and for attacking the city, and as long as the Yunchui Ordnance Division develops new weapons, all frontier guards can get them first.

Therefore, they are the absolute main force to attack the capital of Nanfeng.

At this time, Yuan Xingwen had to go back first and ask people to load the grain, grass and siege equipment on the boat, then go out to the East China Sea along the Hushou River, and then go south to the capital of Nanfeng.

"You bastard Ruan Qianren." Yuan Xingwen scolded his old opponent as he walked away.

Knowing that the Hushou Pass would be broken, Ruan Qianren set fire to it himself, and burned all the defense and siege equipment in the pass, leaving none of them to Yunchuiren.

In Tiger's Sorrow Valley, the three county lieutenants looked at the sky.

It took time for the subordinates to refresh, so they continued to eat in boredom.

"You two," Mo Canghai always talked a lot, and he couldn't help complaining, "Do you think that King Nanfeng's head is covered with paste?"

Compared with Yunchui, Nanfeng is a small country with no strategic depth at all.

As long as Emperor Changxing or Yuan Xingwen wanted to, they could come to their capital at any time.

I don't know how King Nanfeng's head grew.A good neighbor doesn't want to be a good neighbor, so he has to die to touch Yunchui's tiger's whiskers.

Speaking of this, the three of them looked at each other in unison, their faces a little embarrassed.

In recent years, the land where they are stationed has been exploited by several small countries in the south, but everyone is helpless.

However, in the blink of an eye, the situation in the south has undergone a 180-degree change.

Not only the thorn in the flesh of Huchouguan has been broken.Even Yunchui's army will soon come to the capital of Nanfeng.

The four southern counties are still those four counties, and Zhennanguan is still the same Zhennanguan.

All this is because a new army has come to Yingshan camp.

Stars fall!

"You two, don't be in a daze!" Mo Canghai's hands were itchy.

He slapped his thighs and stood up, raised his eyebrows and looked to the south, "Everyone, speed up. The Xingluo army will have killed all the Nanfeng people later, and we won't even be able to drink soup."

Tiger Sorrow River.

Yuan Xingwen patted Li Hebai, who was wearing colorful clothes, and returned to him the sword that he had dropped earlier.

"As expected of the son of the old Li family, he was the first one to climb to the top of the city, and he didn't embarrass your ancestors. How is it? Are you still able to hold on?"

Li He's chest straightened out: "Return to the general, this subordinate just suffered a little skin trauma, it's fine!"

"That's good." Yuan Xingwen smiled: "Did you see your brother-in-law just now?"

He was talking about Ren Ning.

Some time ago, Tieguai Li, who was far away in Yanzhen Fortress, wrote a family letter to his grandson, asking Li Hebai to find a way to match Ren Ning and his sister.

Li Hezhu is not Yingpan.She is a native of Yunchui with Miao Zhenggen red. Although she looks generous on the surface, it is not realistic for an unmarried girl to propose marriage to a man on her own initiative.

When Li Hebai received the letter from his grandfather, he was one head and two older.

It's just that Li Hezhu is not young anymore, and if she doesn't get married again, she will really be an old sister-in-law for the rest of her life.For the future happiness of his eldest sister, Li Hebai had no choice but to bite the bullet and go find Yuan Xingwen.

As the guard of Zhennan Pass, even if he just went to visit Yingshan Camp which is very close at hand, he still needs the approval of the guard.

So Yuan Xingwen knew about it.

It's just that before Li Hebai set off, the war broke out.

cough!
Li Hebai wiped his blood-stained helmet in embarrassment, "The general was joking. What brother-in-law, I haven't written a word yet."

Yuan Xingwen nodded and stopped teasing him.

It's about Li Hezhu's reputation, it's okay to talk to Li Hebai in private, but it's not good to let outsiders hear it.

"Let's work first. You are all young talents, and you may meet them when you attack the city in a few days. Try to make a good impression on him, and then make friends."

Curve to save the country!
Li Hebai complied naturally.

Ren Ning didn't know that he was being missed by two big men at this time, so he led the team to the south.

Originally, he also considered taking a boat out of the East China Sea and then heading south.It's just that it took a big turn like that, and the time slowed down instead.

So I chose to take the post road.

Huchou Pass is the most important pass in Nanfeng, not one of them.The north-south post road is well maintained, and you can walk briskly without worrying about going in the wrong direction.

It's just that the fog is too thick and the visibility is too close, which makes Ren Ning's golden finger useless, which is very helpful for the enemy to ambush.

Especially yesterday Ruan Qianren fired three cloud-piercing arrows into the sky.

It is not certain that there will be a large-scale Nanfeng people turning back to rescue or Yunchui people lying in ambush on the roadside waiting to break through and go south, so the group walked very cautiously.
