Chapter 017 Ziyi
The cold wind whistles, and the winter in the north passes by one day.
The fruits that were won last time were still digesting in the valley. Darren had to walk around the Thunder Hammer for more than ten times every day, as if he wanted to study them carefully. However, he was probably afraid of being broken, so he was a little reluctant.
As for Borg, he found the studious Joshia to discuss military command from time to time. Tang En's life was even simpler, just huddled in the cave to practice skills...
OK, let's take our eyes off the protagonist for the time being and pull the camera to the north...
The north of the north is the Northern Wilderness.
People usually call the front line of Brandland's territory close to the Northern Wilderness. I have to say that this statement is very appropriate, because the frequency of war here is more frequent than that of the beauty-loving noble sister Xiao Shi who changes clothes.
The northern territory is vast, so the front line is naturally long. For various reasons, Brandland is mostly on the defensive position in the battle with the Northern Wilderness tribes. The long front line is naturally very difficult to defend, so in addition to some natural dangers, Brandland has repaired many cities in the Yan border line to passes to garrison troops to block the enemy.
Xiongguan City is a pit built because of this. From the map, it is not closest to the front line, and there are still several cities in the arc-shaped range ahead. Those who understand military affairs can naturally see that these are satellite cities of Xiongguan City.
This arrangement naturally shows the importance of Xiongguan City. In fact, it is true that the cities on the front line are densely covered with stars, but if you ask the leader of the Northern Wilderness tribe who most wants to capture, he will definitely tell you that it is Xiongguan City. The reason is also very simple, because the road behind Xiongguan City is smooth and there is almost no natural danger. As long as this city is captured, the Northern Wilderness cavalry can advance and attack the hinterland in the north, and retreat can be firmly defended to achieve the situation in the future.
The Beichi with such a good terrain is naturally the focus of the attacks of the Northern Wilderness Tribe. In fact, Xiongguan City has been defeated many times within the hundreds of years of the establishment of Bran Kingdom, almost once every few years. No one knows the rebuilt times except reading historical books. However, after the Imperial Zichen Legion entered here, in the past twenty years, there has never been a sword weapon on the wall of Xiongguan City, and even the satellite city in front has not been conquered. The reason for this is certainly not that the Northern Wilderness Tribe does not want to fight...
At this time, in the city of Xiongguan.
There are few pedestrians on the wide streets, which is not that there are no civilians in this military city. In fact, after more than ten years of rest and recuperation, there is a very strong popularity here, which is much better than other northern cities. The reason why it is so lonely is to blame the damn weather. Tang En and the others live in the northern valleys, and they all feel the cold. What's more, the more they go north? In such a ghost weather, who would be willing to go out unless necessary...
Move your eyes forward and come to the center of the city. This is usually the location of the solemn and tall city lord's mansion in other cities. However, in Xiongguan City, there is a low-rise building complex, with neither gorgeous nor solemn style. From a distance, I regret it, just like a military camp.
In the east of this building, in an inconspicuous house..., well, every house here is inconspicuous.
The decorations in the room were quite chaotic, with many long table tables placed in a row, and various documents and letters were piled up randomly on the table. On the inner wall, there were lines drawn on the east mouth with a sub-map pattern hanging, almost blocking the original mountains and rivers on the map. Burning braziers were placed around the room, which was a must in northern houses, but there were as many as six braziers placed here. This was no longer heating, it was a sweat-inducing process.”
In such a stuffy room, there were three people staying in it. Two of them were sweating heavily and their faces were red. One was holding paper that was as tall as the other was pulling it at a constant speed. The sticky paper passed by the person sitting in the middle.
The man among them was dressed very strange. He was wearing a purple fluffy cloak. Not bad, he should be wearing this this season, but now there are six braziers here! Didn’t you see that the two people next to him were just wearing small clothes, and they were already sweating like rain...
After a while, a lot of white paper was pulled. The man raised his head, his eyes like autumn water, and his thin lips like willow leaves... His facial features were extremely delicate, his lips were slightly light purple, and his pale face could hardly see traces of blood flow, which made people feel pity. Oh, what a delicate woman this is."
"Is this all the information today?"
Hey, this slightly magnetic voice... Uh, what is the bulge on the neck? Adam's apple!!! This person with delicate facial features and extremely slender facial features is actually a man...
"Yes, Marshal!" Perhaps because he was used to it, the two of them looked very calm.
"Well, cough cough, what do you think?" The man in purple coughed twice, stretched his body and leaned back on the chair and said. If he could wake up from the entanglement of gender, he would easily find an abnormality. In this environment, the man in purple had no drop of sweat on his face.
The man standing on the left spoke first: "Based on the recent movements of various tribes, I think the Northern Wilderness is preparing for the pre-war period, and there may be a battle this winter."
The man on the right gently had his head, obviously agreeing with this point of view.
"Not possible, it's certain!" The man in purple smiled slightly.
The two nodded immediately when they heard this, as if they had no doubt.
"Dasha will be in one month, cough cough..." The man in purple frowned and calmed his breath a little, "Go to Thunder, Cangyan Legion to inform them. Well, a little reminder, the Northern Wilderness may choose the Cangyan Legion's garrison to launch an attack... Cangyan Legion's garrison, cough cough!"
Before he finished speaking, the man in purple suddenly couldn't help but leaned over and coughed.
"Marson..." The two of them took a step forward and said with unbearable expression.
The man in purple waved his hand, took out a crystal bottle filled with purple liquid from his pocket, and took a sip.
Humming the girl let out a long sigh and sat up straight again, "It's okay, go quickly."
"Yes! Marshal takes care of himself..." The two of them looked at the crystal bottle with a silence, but they had no choice but to leave.
After resting for a while, the man in purple got up and walked around the desk, opened the door and walked out.
The man in purple tightened his cloak and did not walk far away, but turned into the room next to him.
It was much more lively here, with a large group of young people in officer Bran's casual clothes walking around, and they could see some people arguing loudly about something...
"Marson!" A middle-aged officer saw the man in purple and quickly came up and bowed.
"Haha, it's very lively. How about this group of students?" The man in purple asked with a smile.
The middle-aged officer smiled and shook his head: "Not really, most of them are guys with high expectations. I also saw a battle plan to fight to the Beihuang Imperial City yesterday."... He was so sad, we have been fighting in the dog's belly over the years, haha!"
"Ha,..." The man in purple also chuckled, "I'm still young, I'll be good at it in the future. They are top students of the No. 1 Military Academy in the capital, and they are also the future of Brandland!"
"Young? Marshal, you have become famous all over the world when you are so young... Alas, when you think of these people going to the battlefield to lead troops in the future, I feel that the future of Brandland is bleak." The middle-aged officer obviously doesn't look optimistic.
"You are too pessimistic. As long as you don't die, you will always teach them to mature." The man in purple said calmly.
"I hope..."
The man in purple and the middle-aged officer walked a few steps forward and walked inward.
At this time, some young officers and cadets had discovered them. The middle-aged officer was fine, they had seen it a long time ago. But the man in purple walking in front of them was a little surprised.
"You can also get women here?" "Damn it, no, it's a man. How can I feel as a school teacher..." "Why do you look a little familiar...",
At this moment, the man in purple stopped.
Next to him were two young students quarreling, and the whole room was filled with the loudest voices.
"It is definitely hidden here and it is the most hidden place within a radius of fifty miles!"
"Nonsense, are you saying that they can detect a material team that is fifty miles away? Let me tell you, it is definitely here. Not only is the terrain hidden here, but it is more than ten miles away from the ambush site. Only in this way can they know that there is a material team passing by next to them!"
"Can't they know in advance? It's ridiculous. You're too close to the ambush site. Aren't they afraid of being searched?"
"The most dangerous place is the safest place. Have you never heard of it?"
“….”
The two were fighting red and were about to rise from literary fight to military fight.
The middle-aged officer there saw the man in purple stopped and stepped forward and explained: "A few days ago, a material team in the Military Office was robbed by the gray-clothed army. You know, the empire has recently decided to encircle and suppress the gray-clothed army. So there are some situations over there and ask us to determine the location of this group of gray-clothed army."
The man in purple nodded and then looked through the information about the ambush.
After a while, the man in purple stepped forward and walked: "Can you tell me the reason for choosing a location?"
Uh, the two of them were stunned and turned to look at him.
"It's good that I'll let you judge and give me my reason."...
The two of them immediately described their own reasons and nodded slightly as they heard it.
Immediately, the two of them finished speaking. The man in purple chuckled and said, "What you said seems to make sense, so let's take a look one by one..."
"The reason you chose this is because it's hidden enough... Well, you have a good vision. This is indeed the best place to hide things within a radius of fifty miles. However, it is not suitable for hiding people. This is a dead place, with only one import and export, so it is easy to be blocked."
"Well, your reason is that the reconnaissance distance is more than ten miles.... Not bad, with solid basic skills. The reconnaissance distance of the general army is almost like this. However, the location you choose is too small, and you can only hide at most three or four hundred people. Some relatives follow the group of gray-clothed army. The number of people they ambushed is three or four hundred, and the actual number will be around five hundred."
"Why don't you know they would expect your thoughts, so you do the opposite and choose here to die and live?"
"You are too far-fetched. What if this gray-clothed army happens to have no relatives to follow?"
Listening to his choice, all of them were overthrown in a short while. The two officers and practitioners stopped and immediately turned their guns to the outside world and began to attack the man in purple.
"That is, the forms on the battlefield are ever-changing. If you hold this inherent idea, you will suffer a great loss sooner or later."
"You said ours is not good. If you have the ability, please choose one."
Talk about it, the middle-aged officer glared at the tiger's eyes and was about to step forward.
The man in purple waved his hand to stop him, but he picked up the pen without anger and circled a circle somewhere on the map: "Well, I'll choose this."
"It's just this valley? Haha, do you understand military affairs? I thought you had discovered something, let me tell you the reason, and see how I argue."
The man in purple said calmly: "There is no reason, but it can be proved in reality."
"Haha, I can't say it... Well, since you are determined to admit defeat, then we will write down the answers of these three Wus. Let the soldiers attack separately, and see who is right then!"
After saying that, the officer took the paper and wrote down his answer. Then he handed it to another student, and finally handed it to the man in purple.
The man in purple then scratched and handed the paper back.
"Hey, you haven't signed your name yet."
"What, are you afraid of losing?"
The man in purple raised his eyebrows and then smiled and said, "Okay."
Then take the paper again.
The two officers and cadets stared at the man in purple and started writing, as if they were worried that he would write a random name. They did not see the playful expression of the middle-aged officer opposite.
"Okay." The man in purple handed the paper back, and then walked towards the inner room with the middle-aged officer.
The officer and cadet who took the paper swept his eyes, Zi Yi? Why is the name weird, it's a bit familiar?" Zi Yi!!!
Another student looked at the guy next to him and suddenly fell into a daze, then his face changed. He asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Have you come up with some good place again?"
"Purple—" the officer cadet murmured.
"Ziyi? Is there this place on the map?"
"The name is Ziyi!"
"Well",…"
"Zi Yi?" "Zi Yi Marshal?" "Zi Yi Military God?"
The students next to them suddenly became sensational and screamed involuntarily.
Who is Ziyi? That is the marshal of Zichen Legion and the God of the Bran Kingdom.
He was born into a general and showed his military talent since childhood. He entered the first military academy of the capital at the age of 17, graduated and left at the age of 18, and came to the north. From then on, he started his legendary military career.
From the beginning, we led a team of 100 infantrymen to attack the tribe's food route, and a fire broke out the siege of the city. We began to crush the northern front line and went through hundreds of battles of all sizes without any defeat. The killing tribe changed his face and fled when he saw the flag and looked at the wind.
Later, at the age of 22, he took over the Zichen Legion and became the youngest marshal in Bran's history. Oh, the name of the legion was still Xingchen. However, since Ziyi came, Xingchen's name gradually stopped being mentioned. Finally, Bran X issued a notice to officially change the Xingchen Legion to the Zichen Legion and ordered him to enter Xiongguan City.
After that, Xiongguan City was safe and sound for more than ten years without any harm. Marshal Ziyi was also robbed by the people as the God of War.”…
The students around him looked at the two students with pity. A military god who could not finish talking about the legendary story was actually asked by them, "Do you understand military affairs?" and said seriously that the situation on the battlefield is changing constantly. With inherent thoughts, you will suffer a great loss sooner or later... Is this to teach the military god how to fight? I have a genitals, so his mother has a genitals! This courage, courage, and domineering spirit are all over the ground."
