Chapter 64 Departure

The blizzard is coming

The howling north wind, wrapped in large flakes of snowflakes, hit Zhou Hao head and face.

Zhou Hao shook the snow flakes stuck to the cloak and armor, looked up at the cloudy sky, and cursed in a low voice: "Damn, it was fine just now, why don't you just drop it?"

This is the tenth consecutive day of marching.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers, as well as the conscripted peasants and village braves, meandered along the road from Longxiang City to Changqing Mountain like a huge dragon.

The vanguard of the expeditionary army has even crossed Changqing Mountain and entered the territory of Koryo, and the rear army has just set off from Longxiang City.

There are so many people, and there are several grains and supplies crowded on the road, coupled with the freezing weather, the road is difficult, and the speed is not fast enough.

The Chinese army where Zhou Hao was in, after taking the oath of arms in Longxiang City ten days ago, they marched all the way to Changqing Mountain.The road of more than [-] miles, it took ten days to travel, and it was only [-] miles. For this elite team, it was really slow.

In order to drive the Fusang people into the sea this time, Beiyan did everything possible.

In addition to the army that had to stay to guard against the Western Qin people, Xue Wanche, the general of Zhenguo, was the commander, and the seventh prince, Ji Yue, was the supervisor of the army. The county police soldiers, a total of 23 cavalry, [-] infantry, and more than [-] township bravery and civilian husbands, are attacking the army of one million Fusang with all their strength.

Among the more than 30 troops, the Liaodong Army is of course the well-deserved main force.There are 11 infantry in Liaodong, accounting for almost half of the total infantry; and there are more than [-] cavalry in Liaodong, accounting for a full [-]%.

It was the [-] soldiers of the Liaodong Army's Selected Front Battalion who were the pioneers of the whole army.Not only did they want to repel the tentative harassment attacks of the Fusang people, but they also had to shovel the snow to clear the way for the army behind.

But in Evergreen Mountain in November, a snowstorm may visit at any time.A layer of old snow has just been shoveled in front, and two layers of new snow will be pressed in behind.

At this time, preparing the sled for one month played a great role.

Especially for infantry, with the sharp tool of skids, the thick snow is no longer an obstacle.The infantrymen who have mastered skiing in mathematics glide on the snow surface in a vigorous figure, not only fast, but also extremely labor-saving.

Xue Wanche looked at a famous infantry flying by, and said to Zhou Hao beside him with great satisfaction: "Haozi, your idea is really good, I will give you a great credit, and before the battle starts, you will be beheaded for [-] years!" The contribution of the first-level can be regarded as the only one in the whole army.”

Zhou Hao grinned at the corner of his mouth and said, "These infantrymen are very happy, but we cavalrymen have suffered."

For the cavalry, the sled really didn't do much.Even if people can use sleds, the mounts of the cavalry still have to trek through the snow.

In order to be with their beloved mounts, the cavalry abandoned the skids one after another, and led their horses to move forward step by step in the thigh-deep snowfield.

Even Xue Wanche was no exception. He led his black storm and followed the tens of thousands of cavalry.

But for Xue Wanche, who is a top expert, walking on the snow is really like walking on flat ground, and there is no difficulty at all.In the snow, only two lines of his footprints were left.

Zhou Hao also led his two horses, one was the original bay red horse, and the other was the hissing wind beast that had just been subdued two days ago.

The hissing beast was malnourished all the year round, and Zhou Hao was reluctant to ride it until it was recuperated, so Zhou Hao could only use a bay red horse for transportation temporarily.

And now the one lying on the back of the bay red horse is not Zhou Hao himself, but Shan Hu, a tired guy who is too lazy to walk by himself, jumps on the back of the bay red horse, hitchhikes on it, and even sleeps lazily. take a nap

Zhou Hao turned his head and looked around. Tens of thousands of cavalry were obediently trudging through the snow.There was only one large warm sedan chair carried by eight people, which looked particularly abrupt among the large group of people.

"General, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince is too arrogant to march and fight in a sedan chair carrying eight carriages. What kind of a thing is this?" Zhou Hao said with a trace of disdain.

Xue Wanche turned his head and glanced at the big warm sedan chair, and said in a cold voice: "Mud is just mud, no matter how much you lift it up, you can't hold it up to the wall. The king really spoils his young son so much that he actually sent him to be the supervisor. It's clear that he is coming I can only hold my nose to accept such arrangements as grabbing a piece of military exploits and messing with seniority. But don't interfere with my military affairs, otherwise, I will not be able to eat whatever prince or grandson I care about him. go round"

Zhou Hao frowned and looked at the eight big sedan chairs, and found that the eight big men who carried the sedan chairs seemed not to be struggling even though they were lifting the heavy sedan chairs.Moreover, the footprints left by the eight people in the snow were less than half an inch, only slightly deeper than Xue Wanche's footprints.

Seeing this, Zhou Hao hurriedly said: "General, who are the big men carrying the sedan chair? Look at them, are they all masters?"

Xue Wanche said in a deep voice: "These are the notorious seven kings and eight dogs in the capital, that is, the eight dogs of the Seventh Prince. People die under the claws of these eight dogs, let alone ordinary people."

Zhou Hao's heart sank. He didn't expect Beiyan's court to be so chaotic, with princes and ministers killing each other. So what hope does Beiyan have?

"It seems that Beiyan's officialdom is really too dark. Is it true that my young master is going to be a general in the future and completely sink into this mess?"

Thinking of this, Zhou Hao gained a better understanding of the officialdom, and his dream of becoming a general subconsciously faded a bit.

At this time, a few snowflakes got into Zhou Hao's neck, and Zhou Hao, who was in deep thought, was suddenly shocked, his head suddenly felt cool, and he already had plans for the future in his heart: "Forget it, maybe the general is right. , what fame and wealth, glory and wealth are all for Master Fuyun, it is better to concentrate on practicing martial arts, as long as you become a master, the world is so big, you can go as much as you want."

With a clear goal for the future in mind, Zhou Hao felt his mind was clear, and continued to think: "This expedition to Goryeo, I must grab a thousand battle merits and exchange for the next chapter of the Thick Earth Butting Heaven Kungfu. If If there is a chance, I will repay the kindness of the General, Sister Hongsu, Hou Tou, Sun Qi, Su Xuan and others one by one, so that even if I leave the barracks in the future, I will not worry about it."

For the upcoming battle, Zhou Hao already has a clear goal. The first is to grab enough military exploits and exchange them for the "Thick Land and Repair Heaven Skills", so as not to be stuck in the bottleneck of second-rate warriors in the future; the second is to repay the debt of favor. After all, Zhou Hao has come to this day, and many people have helped him more or less for various purposes.

Zhou Hao didn't want to owe anyone any favors, even if he wanted to leave, he would do so in a natural and unrestrained way.
