I am a soldier in the border army

Chapter 313: Ten Thousand Riders! Cang Tian is dead! Huang Tian should be established! (Change the chapter title!)

Champion City, a dozen miles away from the west gate.

Han Shao and Gongsun Du, the father-in-law and son-in-law who had not yet established their true relationship, sat astride their respective war horses and stood side by side, gazing at the black 'tide' running towards them in the distance under the smoke and dust.

If someone who has not seen this scene with his own eyes hears the number "ten thousand cavalry", he would probably think that this number of people is nothing.

But in fact, there is a saying that goes "There are over ten thousand people everywhere in the mountains and plains."

Only those who have truly witnessed this scene will know what darkness means.

Although it was not the first time that Han Shao had seen such a scene, he could not help but feel emotional when he saw the thousands of cavalrymen rushing towards him again.

Thinking back to when I first came through, I was really quite fierce.

It would have been fine if he had fought to the death in the early stage when facing the siege of tens of thousands of barbarian cavalry, but later on, he dared to charge directly into the army of hundreds of thousands with only three hundred cavalry under the city of Dingbei. He was really so bold that he didn't even know how to write the word death.

Just as he was lost in thought, he heard Gongsun Du beside him sigh.

"My dear son-in-law, don't blame your father for being stingy."

mean?

Han Shao, who had no idea where Gongsun Du's words came from, was slightly stunned.

The Zhen Liao Army had ten battalions, each with ten thousand cavalry, for a total of one hundred thousand.

This is all the assets of the entire Zhenliao Iron Cavalry.

In order to prepare for war, one month ago, three of the seven cavalry battalions that had remained in Zhenliao City and had not yet been mobilized, along with the remaining Di Battalion, had been transferred to Guanjun City.

It seems to be weaker than the Langju City guarded by Gongsun Du, but in fact it is just the opposite.

Because in addition to the 300 veteran soldiers in the Xianzhen Camp, Han Shao also has a force that has not yet been exposed to the public.

Ten thousand white horse volunteers!
In terms of combat power alone, I'm afraid even the ten Tianzi battalions of the Zhen Liao Army combined would not be able to defeat them.

Now faced with Gongsun Du suddenly sending another battalion of troops, Han Shao really didn't know what to say.

I can only call you father-in-law, and it's not in vain...

But I didn't expect that my cheap father-in-law was actually afraid of me... thinking he was stingy?
'What? You can't prepare for your own day?'

Han Shao cursed in his heart.

He looked at Gongsun Du and shook his head.

"Father-in-law is worrying too much."

"If I had known that my father-in-law was going to send these 10,000 cavalrymen, Shao would never have agreed."

"The war is imminent, and no one knows which direction that mad dog Shi Bi will attack."

"We have to defend the championship, and we have to defend the corridor as well."

"If you focus on one thing and lose the other, even if one side wins, the loss will outweigh the gain."

The two cities of Langju and Guanjun support each other.

If any one side is breached, the other side will become passive.

So there was no falsehood in Han Shao's words.

If he had not considered that Gongsun Du had already brought the men here, and that running back and forth would cause the soldiers to lose their fighting spirit before the battle, Han Shao would have really wanted to let Gongsun Du take the men back directly.

Upon hearing this, Gongsun Du looked at Han Shao with a slightly relieved look in his eyes.

"I'm relieved that you think this way."

After saying this, Gongsun Du smiled, as if he had guessed what Han Shao was worried about.

"You don't need to worry about your father."

"As for the battle formation, I still have some confidence in you."

"If I hadn't fallen into the trap set by those people last year, in a fair fight, that fellow Shibi would never have been my father's opponent!"

When Gongsun Du said this, he looked indignant, yet full of confidence.

However, he did not mean to brag about himself when he said this.

But for so many years, Gongsun Du relied solely on the city of Zhenliao to suppress the entire Wuhuan tribe in the wild grassland, preventing them from making an inch of progress, and he fought his way out!
When Han Shao heard this, he shook his head.

"Father-in-law, you must not be careless. The barbarians today are far from the barbarians of the past."

In September, several small-scale barbarian invasions moved south.

Han Shao had already informed Zhen Liao City of the situation of those barbarians, and Gongsun Du also knew about it.

So after hearing what Han Shao said, Gongsun Du nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then he smiled at Han Shao.

"It doesn't matter. His Wuhuan tribe has the Dragon Clan. Don't we have a good son-in-law here?"

During the years of war between the barbarians and the Zhen Liao army.

In this year's battle, the dragon clan was an unexpected variable.

But Han Shao is also a variable.

They all have strange methods that ordinary people cannot even understand.

Apart from anything else, just the Jiaozi talisman that Han Shao gave him some time ago was enough to make Gongsun Du feel confident.

What about the Dragon Clan?
As long as he could rely on Langju City to withstand the attack, even if it took time, he could eventually kill that mad dog Shi Bi.

Han Shao didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard Gongsun Du compare himself to the dragon clan.

But since Gongsun Du had such confidence, he didn't say anything more.

After all, if it really comes to a battle, it would be a bit of an exaggeration to say that Han Shao is not even worthy of carrying shoes in front of this White Horse General who is famous in Liaodong, but it is not far off.

"Father-in-law is joking."

After saying this, the father-in-law and son-in-law smiled at each other.

But after laughing, Gongsun Du's expression gradually became serious.

"Shao Ge'er..."

Seeing that Gongsun Du rarely called him by his name, Han Shao turned his head to look.

"To live."

Gongsun Du said.

"Don't worry about the gains and losses of the moment."

"You are still young. As long as you are alive, there is hope for everything."

No matter how relaxed Gongsun Du appeared before.

But as a veteran who has been in many battles, how could he not know that war is a matter of life and death.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand in everything, just be afraid of the eventuality.

Gongsun Du has been in this world for so many years, even if he dies on the battlefield, he can be considered to have gotten what he wanted.

But he, this rare and virtuous son-in-law in the world, is still young. Even the dullest person can see that as long as he is alive, he will have a bright future.

Gongsun Du said this and turned his gaze to the row of black-armored cavalrymen who had stopped their horses in front of him.

"If... there is something wrong, don't worry about it, father."

"It's all about protecting yourself."

Han Shao didn't expect Gongsun Du to say this in the end, and looked at Gongsun Du in a daze.

At this time, the black-armored cavalry who had been riding in front had reined in their horses one after another, and then dismounted together.

"I've seen the general!"

"I've seen the champion!"

Gongsun Du looked at these ferocious men with a smile and waved his hand.

"No courtesy, get up."

After saying that, he smiled at Han Shao again.

"From now on...everything I have as a father will be yours."

If it weren't for Gongsun Du's last sentence, Han Shao would have thought it was just empty talk.

But now he took it seriously.

……

Gongsun Du came suddenly this time and left in a hurry.

But Han Shao did not say anything to persuade him to stay.

After all, now is not the time to be polite. After the battle, we will have plenty of time.

And Gongsun Du obviously thought so too.

As they were all military men, Han Shao's prompt and decisive style of doing things made Gongsun Du even more satisfied.

Before leaving, he only left one sentence.

"Remember, Mulan is still waiting for you."

He took a step forward and disappeared directly in front of Han Shao.

Looking at the direction where Gongsun Du suddenly disappeared, Han Shao stood still for a long time.

Perhaps it was because he had seen too much hypocrisy in his past and present lives that made him seem a little helpless, even bewildered, when faced with Gongsun Du's sincerity.

With a sigh in his heart, Han Shao finally withdrew his gaze.

Looking at the general who was winking at him, Han Shao couldn't help laughing.

Now, there is no general in the entire Zhen Liao Army who does not know Han, and there is no one he does not know.

Since we are all acquaintances, there is naturally no need to be polite.

So he waved his hand and said.

"Let's enter the city first."

"Here."

Military orders are like mountains.

Ten thousand elite cavalrymen, showing the spirit of tigers and wolves, rode their horses and filed into the city.

The general in charge of commanding these ten thousand cavalrymen came forward and whispered to Han Shao.

When Han Shao heard this, he was stunned at first, then he suddenly realized, and finally he was stunned again.

No wonder Gongsun Du took the time to personally send them here at this critical juncture.

It turns out that the real value of these 10,000 cavalrymen is not to add bargaining chips to the subsequent war, but to save Han Shao's life.

For this purpose, Gongsun Du even went against the order of Patriarch Gongsun and taught them the core secret of military strategy - military momentum!
With them around, even if the final outcome of the battle is truly irreversible.

Han Shao could also rely on this huge army of ten thousand cavalry to break through the siege in one fell swoop, and even survive the threat from the Eight Realms Celestial Beings.

As for the White Horse Volunteers from the Gongsun clan, perhaps Gongsun Du never really trusted them...

……

October 15, the sixtieth year of Taikang.

The Lower Yuan Festival.

Legend has it that on this day, the ancient water official will come to the human world to inspect the good and evil in the world.

The people in the Central Plains would also prepare rich dishes to offer sacrifices to their ancestors.

However, Youzhou is located in a remote area with limited resources, so naturally there are no such conditions.

Often, people simply burn some incense to their ancestors at home, and that is considered a festival.

Han Shao stood on a tall building in the Marquis' Mansion, looking down at the smoke rising from the city, but there was no expression on his face.

It was not until a pair of white jade-like hands behind him put a black fox fur on him that he slowly withdrew his gaze.

"My dear, is there something bothering you?"

Han Shao has had this expression since he woke up in the morning, and it has never changed.

Yu Xuanji, who already had some understanding of him, naturally felt this depressing atmosphere.

But she was just an ignorant woman, and at best she had some cultivation.

She has no idea what the troubles of men in this world are like, let alone being able to help her husband solve his problems.

The only thing she could do was to offer the thoughtfulness and tenderness that were unique to women, and that was all.

Listening to Yu Xuanji's gentle whisper, Han Shao's expression finally changed slightly, but then froze again.

"nothing."

Han Shao took the ginseng tea handed to him by Yu Xuanji and drank it all in one gulp.

Then he slowly exhaled a breath of foul air.

The Seventh Realm True Immortal is not yet qualified to directly spy on the changes in the heavens, but he can already sense some major events that are about to happen in the dark.

What's more, compared with the other seven realms in this world, Han Shao himself is an anomaly.

Therefore, this feeling becomes stronger.

As for whether it was the south or the north, Han Shao couldn't tell for a moment.

But according to his inference, it should be the south!

October 15th is the Lower Yuan Festival!
A festival is a happy one once you have celebrated it.

If you can’t get through it, it will be a disaster!
The disaster of disaster!

As if to confirm Han Shao's guess, the next moment Han Shao suddenly looked towards the south.

The sky has changed!

Looking ahead, even if you are thousands of miles away, you can still see the dramatic changes in the celestial phenomena in the distant sky.

At this moment, even Yu Xuanji, who had never been very sensitive to external things, changed her expression.

"My dear...what is that?"

Upon hearing this, Han Shao turned his head and looked at Yu Xuanji in surprise.

"What do you see?"

Yu Xuanji felt a little panicked, and subconsciously leaned towards Han Shao, then said in a trembling voice.

"Thunder...Thunder...and..."

"What else?"

Facing Han Shao's questioning, Yu Xuanji was a little uncertain.

"Also... the sky there... seems to have turned yellow..."

In fact, the scene that Yu Xuanji saw at this moment was far from as simple as 'turning yellow'.

In a trance, she seemed to see the terrifying ochre yellow, which was constantly devouring and swallowing up the original dark green color with an unstoppable force!

Its momentum... is like swallowing the sky!
Han Shao couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this.

Logically speaking, with her cultivation level of a mere Yuanshen Zhenren, she shouldn't be able to "see" so far and so clearly.

But she happened to see...

Han Shao couldn't help but look at Yu Xuanji in his arms with a probing look.

But soon he no longer cared about these.

Because in that terrifying vision that seemed to swallow the sky, three roars that shook the world were faintly heard above the void.

"Cang... Tian is dead, Huang Tian should be established!"

"If you are at the age of sixty, the world will be blessed!"

Then, terrifying, endless thunder roared down from the sky, as if to take this opportunity to cleanse the world of all filth and ugliness.

At this moment, Han Shao suddenly realized that compared with this terrifying phenomenon of heaven and earth, the commotion caused when he broke through the realm and ascended to immortality was simply child's play!

Han Shao laughed at himself in his heart, but he did not show any dejection. Instead, he felt a little sad.

Heaven is dead, Huang Tian shall stand!
In the year of Jiazi, all the world will be blessed with good fortune!
coming!

It’s finally here!

Just as he had predicted for a long time, it arrived as expected!

For a moment, Han Shao's expression was complicated.

And as if he suddenly thought of something, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky full of stars in the sky that ordinary people could not see.

At a glance, he saw that the three auxiliary stars under the main star that kept calling him were shining with extremely bright sacred light.

If Han Shao's relatively poor knowledge of the stars was not wrong.

Those three auxiliary stars are exactly the three officials who assist the emperor star!

The Heavenly Official, the Earthly Official, and the Water Official are collectively known as the Three Great Officials!

And if Han Shao guessed correctly, the three figures he saw from the three stars when he broke through to become an immortal should be the Three Elders of Huang Tian!
To steal the throne, to steal the power.

Although Han Shao was instinctively angry at the time, he was eventually annoyed by the constant bewitching and urging, so he didn't drive them out directly.

When his thoughts turned to this, Han Shao suddenly connected all the truth together.

During the Lantern Festival, the heavenly officials bestow blessings.

During the Zhongyuan Festival, the Earth God pardons sins.

During the Lower Yuan Festival, the Water God will relieve you from disasters.

At this point, the three elements are complete, and it is time to achieve success!
No wonder Huang Tiandao chose this day to launch the rebellion!
Han Shao understood completely.

But there was no trace of joy of seeing the truth on his face. Instead, he was in a state of hesitation.

Because he could clearly feel that... if he wanted, he could now ascend to heaven in one breath, and then ruthlessly knock down the three elders of Huang Tian who had usurped the Three Officials Emperor Star and cut off their power!

But Han Shao was hesitating.

Even though he knew clearly that Huang Tiandao was a disaster to the world.

Once it is released, it will surely sweep the world.

Countless people and lives will die for it!

Han Shao was still hesitating.

But this hesitation finally turned into a self-deprecating smile.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that there was no difference between himself and those crazy people he cursed.

Shi Bi, the three elders of Huang Tian, ​​Shangguan Ding...

In fact, he is the same kind of person as them.

Even compared to those crazy people, he, Han, is more hypocritical.

Okay, he admitted it.

He needs Huang Tiandao.

Huang Tiandao is needed to help him muddy this stagnant water known as the world's stagnant water.

So that he will have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters in the future.

He needs them to help him pry open the aristocratic family's door that is as solid as an iron plate!

This way, he won’t have so much blood on his hands in the future, and his reputation will be better.

He even needed Huang Tiandao to tear off the sacred coat that the Yongji clan had passed down for more than two thousand years...

So that when I take over in the future, it will be more legitimate.

And since there are so many benefits...

There is no need for him to work, all he needs to do is stand by and watch.

The only price is the death of some innocent people...why not do it?
Han Shao smiled.

The corners of his mouth were raised, revealing a ferocious look.

Then he just quietly looked at the void thousands of miles away, with winds rising, clouds surging, lightning and thunder.

Looking there, there were vaguely terrifying figures rushing into the void, as if trying to stop all this from happening.

Until the sky in that endless void boiled to the extreme, and the aura became terrifying to the extreme.

Finally, a hearty laugh was heard.

"A million stars are not as bright as one day!"

"The words of Zhutian Qunxing are not as good as those of Guoyi's virtuous people!"

"Today, the blue sky is falling apart, and Yongzuo is falling apart! This is the time for Huangtian to be established!"

"I, Zhang Xian, want to use my body as medicine to cure all the diseases in the world!"

"May all people in the world be like dragons!"
