The center of the Ganyuan Basin belongs to Ganyuan City. More than ten miles north of Ganyuan City is the largest garrison camp of the Ganyuan Army. The terrain here is open, close to the official road, and the roads are accessible.
Today, outside the gate of this military camp, which is usually subject to extremely strict military regulations, we welcomed waves of richly dressed visitors.
The younger ones are probably in their forties or fifties, and the older ones are even more gray-haired. They have to be supported by servants when they walk. Anyone who is a little familiar with the powerful and powerful people in Ganyuan will know that every one of them is
The characters surrounded by servants are all big characters who would make the whole Ganyuan and even half of Li County tremble when they stomp their feet.
Each of them can represent a huge family behind them. They have been closely related by marriage to each other for hundreds of years, which has added an invisible blood connection to these families.
In this era, princes, generals, and ministers all have certain numbers, and the current wave of elderly people are representatives of the entire Li County's powerful families.
But even so, they all need to come to the Ganyuan military camp in person today. Even if the journey is tiring, they can't complain much, because the person who issued the invitation this time is the current Ganyuan garrison general and the face of the Ganyuan Zhao family.
Character, Zhao Wuji.
The Zhao family today is different from the past.
A few months ago, although Zhao Wuji was also a general, he was stationed in Cangyan after all. For the powerful people in Ganyuan, it was just a decent thing. Now he came back from the border exile and led his army to guard the Ganyuan Basin. He responded to the powerful people.
The basic small towns are all under its direct jurisdiction and deterrence, and their status is naturally different.
Not to mention that Zhao Wuji's nephew Zhao Gui was promoted to the rank of general, and temporarily led the troops north to garrison Uehara as the chief general. His cousin Zhao Qingxia also stayed as the lieutenant to garrison Cangyan. The Zhao family has three generals, belonging to the three major battlefields in the northern part of Lijun.
, it is said that the Zhao family is now the number one military family in Li County. Even the recognized mainland general Lu Dongfeng cannot say no. It can be said that the power is overwhelming.
Now, Zhao Wuji, who has taken office as a new official, is going to summon Gan Yuan's powerful family members in the military camp to gather everyone. Although everyone knows that they will inevitably be intimidated, no one dares not to come. If this offends Zhao Wuji's heart,
If there is a grudge, the life of my family will be difficult in the next few decades. After some weighing, even the old ancestor of the Xie family is willing to come in person, which gives the Zhao family face. Zhao Wuji is not an arrogant person.
, early that morning, he and his close confidant General Shen Cheng were guarding the official pavilion outside the military camp. This was considered a very polite way of hospitality, and it also gave enough face to the gossips of the powerful families.
After Zhao Wuji greeted the last important family talker all the way and invited him to the military camp and was led by a captain to the high platform, he turned back to Shen Cheng behind him and said, "Master, where are they?"
Shen Cheng was a middle-aged man, not very tall, but very strong. He had small eyes and a face full of scars. He looked a little scary. He looked up at the noon sun and said, "
People from the Anbu came here just now and said that if the infantry moves at a slower pace, it may take a while. Young Master will lead the cavalry to get here first. Calculating the distance, it should be faster."
Zhao Wuji nodded, "Everyone's talk has almost arrived. Let's go to the high platform and wait. There is no room for any mistakes in today's military parade."
Shen Cheng smiled, his already ferocious face becoming more and more frightening, "The boys already know that we are going to fight with real swords and guns in Yongchang County, and we also know that the team with the best performance today is expected to become the vanguard. He is extremely excited and has been training his soldiers desperately these days. General, rest assured that there will be absolutely no mistakes."
Zhao Wuji nodded expressionlessly, "After today, the news of the battle with Yongchang County will gradually spread within a certain area. The young master will personally promise a group of soldiers to win the title in battle. Old man, open up the territory and expand the territory." , the once-in-a-thousand-year success is just around the corner..."
Shen Cheng, who heard this for the first time, couldn't help but be startled. Then his breathing became a little heavier, "General, are you serious about this?!"
"Why did I lie to you?" Zhao Wuji still showed no expression and walked towards the high platform. "You and I both know that the young master of today is the prefect of tomorrow. This man who has not yet ascended the throne dares to plot a plan and step into the realm of the princes. The achievements of a young master who fights are bound to be limitless. We, the warriors, were born in troubled times, but we may have caught up with the best times. Those who dare to fight hard will have a future."
Hearing this, Shen Cheng nodded heavily, his eyes shining a little. Looking at Zhao Wuji's steadfast back, he gradually calmed down, but his face became more solemn, "General, in this battle, we will fight to the death, and we will do this to the general for his unparalleled service. By that time, the number one general in Li County will no longer be Lu Dongfeng!"
Zhao Wuji turned around and glared at Shen Cheng and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? When the young master arrives later, please control your mouth. Otherwise, when I whip you, don't blame me for not saving face for your old face!"
Shen Cheng was not annoyed at all when he heard this. Instead, he nodded with a smile and said, "General, don't worry, we, Old Shen, also know how stupid we are. When the time comes, we will definitely not talk nonsense. We will definitely not talk nonsense."
Zhao Wuji glared at him again before stretching out his hand to throw away the cloak that was blown up by the wind on his shoulders, and asked a group of soldiers to wait under the high platform. Only he and Shen Cheng climbed onto the high platform.
On the high platform, all the speakers from the powerful families who were already seated stood up when they saw Zhao Wuji on the stage. After a long exchange of greetings, Zhao Wuji sat down with everyone, but they did not sit on the most eye-catching and unique seat in the center of the high platform. Instead of sitting on a large chair, he sat on an ordinary chair on one side of the chair like everyone else. Across the wide chair and on the other side, the ancestors of the Xie family laughed and chatted about some unnutritious topics, causing a group of powerful families to talk. Everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere was strange for a moment.
After chatting for a while, it was not until the winter sun made everyone want to take a nap that some different sounds came from outside the military camp in the distance.
The sound of horse hooves.
At first, the sound of horse hooves was like mosquitoes and flies surrounding my ears.
Then, when the old people with the weakest ears on the high platform heard the dull vibration, the high platform that was built to be extremely strong began to tremble slightly!
Then, people saw the smoke and dust getting closer and closer outside the gate of the military camp. When the sound of horse hooves was heard like thunder, a cavalry rushed in from outside the martial arts field in everyone's sight!
I saw that the first hundred cavalrymen were all red, and the two thousand cavalrymen behind them were all wearing armor and looked like dragons!
They just rushed into the field, surrounded the motionless infantry phalanx, circled around, and ended up with each other!
Then, the leader of a hundred blood knights broke away from the team and rushed to the high platform. They stopped suddenly under the high platform, moving like a startling dragon and as quiet as a rainbow. It was very shocking!
It wasn't until this moment that the gossips from the powerful families on the high platform realized that Zhao Wuji and the two generals Shen Cheng and Chen Shaoxiong who were originally seated had already stood up. They also stood up and stood up, exchanging glances while looking towards the high platform Down.
There, a young man with a solemn face got off his horse.
