Chapter 248 Jingyongguan, a man, should be wrapped in horse leather! 【4k small chapter for monthly ticket】
Northland.
The north wind whistles.
The weather in the North should have gradually warmed up in the first month after the Chinese New Year.
But when spring was about to return to the earth, the barbarians from the north came.
Jingyong Pass.
At this moment, above the city gate, there were densely packed soldiers with serious eyes, paying attention to all the movements outside the gate.
The general guarding the gate here is a general with a vicissitudes of life.
His name is Zhao Kun, and he has been stationed at the border for more than eighty years.
With his current level as a travel envoy, he was not suitable to be placed here. He should have been transferred from Jingyong Pass as early as possible and not be the general guarding the pass.
It's just that the court gave an order to change defenses, but he refused.
A real man should be proud to wrap his body in horse leather, so how can there be any reason to live in peace and contentment in the rear?
Therefore, everyone in the Daxia court knew that Zhao Kun was a stubborn person, and almost no one persuaded him to return to the army to garrison after that.
However, since the past two nights, he has been feeling a little uneasy.
If a day traveler has this feeling, he will naturally not take it to heart. This is the crisis sensing of an expert.
So from morning to night these days, he didn't take off his armor at all, but kept patrolling the city wall.
And the facts proved that his feeling was right.
With the rapid sound of horse hoofbeats, a scout was seen coming towards Jingyong Pass at high speed.
"General, the barbarians from the north are here!"
As soon as this news came out, the entire Jingyong Pass was like a war machine, running quickly without any panic.
After all, this time, the court had already prepared a response, and even issued a death order to annihilate the northern barbarians in this battle.
Zhao Kun had actually been waiting for this order for thirty years.
Thirty years ago, he swore that the barbarians in the North would never be destroyed and that he, Zhao Kun, would never die in peace!
Therefore, after hearing that the barbarians from the North finally attacked this time, the first thing he thought of was not danger, but excitement.
During Zhao Kun's lifetime, he finally had the opportunity to fight to the death with the barbarians in the North.
He had been waiting for this moment for too long.
However, he did not get carried away by being too excited, but remained calm at all times.
He kept the laws of the battlefield in mind and did not have any impulse. Just like previous war exercises, he calmly stationed at Jingyong Pass and did not choose to take the initiative.
After all, the main force of Daxia has not arrived yet, and the military orders have not been conveyed. His duty is to guard Jingyong Pass.
Rather than creating difficulties for the Daxia Legion or even causing catastrophe because of his own personal emotions.
However, Zhao Kun immediately used the Daxia military aircraft system to send a message to the military aircraft department, and then quietly waited for the order to arrive.
If the orders from the Daxia court were not followed, he would defend Jingyong Pass and not leave.
However, when the army took the initiative to attack, Zhao Kun wanted to seize the opportunity and be the vanguard!
…
Outside Jingyong Pass.
Twenty miles.
At this moment, Mondor has rushed here as the vanguard of the northern barbarians.
The order Mondo received at this time was to clear the border areas and remove all obstacles for the follow-up army.
However, outside of Jingyong Pass, there are no people anywhere at this moment, it is just an empty frontier.
"Mengqi, go to the rear and report to the Khan that our Menduo tribe has arrived twenty miles outside Jingyong Pass and everything is going well."
"yes!"
In an instant, a tribal warrior rode towards the rear without any sloppiness in his movements.
Mondo looked in the direction of Jingyong Pass and couldn't help but lick his mouth with his tongue. His eyes were full of cruelty.
As long as you pass the Jingyong Pass, you will open up the hinterland of Daxia.
There is gold everywhere and warehouses full of food.
Legend has it that it is a place of splendid beauty and natural treasures.
This is the Daxia that Mondo heard about since he was a child, a wonderful transition like a fairyland.
However, such a prosperous Daxia should not be occupied by those thin Daxia people, but should be captured by unparalleled warriors like him.
However, the totem messenger has also given an order to use Mondor as the vanguard to remove all obstacles for the Northland army.
Although Mondo is brave, he is not single-minded.
At this time, the totem messenger obviously has his own plan, so he only needs to follow his orders and does not need to make his own decisions.
At this time, he followed the totem messenger's order to station his tribal army here, and then quietly waited for the arrival of the army.
The beautiful Great Xia opened its arms to them as long as they broke through the Jingyong Pass. They had the final say in burning, killing, and looting.
As for him, Mondo wants to build eternal achievements. After all, Khan is old. Since he is the lion king with rotten teeth, he should take the initiative to give up his throne.
Jingyong Pass, I, Meng Erduo, must take it!
…
Zhao Kun detected the news as soon as the Menduo tribe was stationed twenty miles away from Jingyong Pass.
In the next two days, if there had not been news from the military aircraft department at this moment, I am afraid that he would have lost his patience and killed the Mondo tribe.
These northern barbarians dare to come to Daxia to seek death. It seems that Daxia has not shown its fangs in the past few years.
Especially Mondor, a name he had heard for a long time, he was just a reckless man.
However, the order he received before was to defend Jingyong Pass, so until there is a new order, he can only defend Jingyong Pass.
Then he waited patiently for the arrival of Daxia's main force. Therefore, no matter how enthusiastic Zhao Kun was, he could only suppress all his thoughts and calm the emotions of other soldiers.
However, two days after the Mendo tribe arrived here, there was no movement, and the main force of Daxia did not come, as if there was a tacit agreement.
This is not like the style of the barbarians in the North. After all, their walnut-sized brains cannot do such a thing!
Zhao Kun, who had originally planned to engage in a close combat with the barbarians in the north, saw this situation and was a little confused.
What exactly happened and why is this happening?
What was even stranger was that before he could wait for the main army to arrive, the first one to arrive was the baggage army.
This is the Jingyong Pass, the first pass in the North of Daxia. How come the heavy army arrived here first?
The story changed three days ago.
After Feng Rufeng received the military order, he felt very depressed, but he had to start preparing according to the military order.
After all, it is the duty of soldiers to obey orders.
Otherwise, why would Zhou Dafu be so famous thirty years ago?
Immediately afterwards, in the afternoon of the same day, Feng Rufeng followed the military order and headed directly to Jingyong Pass with the food, grass and baggage prepared by the three nearby cities.
But when he thought that the mission was in Juyongguan, Feng Rufeng seemed to be performing a face change and beamed with joy.
That’s right!
Even if it is a heavy baggage army, I am a heavy baggage army that can fight.
Jingyongguan, what place is that?
That was the first level in the Northern Land of Daxia!
At this moment, the war is about to begin. Are you still afraid that there will be no battle at Jingyong Pass?
In an instant, Feng Rufeng seemed to have changed into a different person. He gathered everyone together, took the food and supplies from the three cities collected, and hurried to Jingyong Pass.
As for Liang Du, he naturally has no objection to this.
After all, he has also stated that he wants to follow Feng Rufeng to visit Jingyong Pass during this period.
It's just that there's an extra chatty monkey on his shoulder.
This monkey, ever since he could speak, was so excited that he never stopped talking.
Liang Du would tease the Monkey King at first. After all, after the monkey started talking, he would have one more person to chat with.
However, maybe it was because of excitement or novelty, anyway, this great sage seemed to have turned into five people.
Although Fang Xiu chatters endlessly, he is still a bit unsatisfied in front of the Great Sage.
At first, he thought that the great sage had just learned to speak. Knowing that he was in agitated mood, he could only block his hearing, and then he calmed down.
After that, Feng Rufeng set out for Juyongguan. They left a message for Chow Dafu and then left camp directly.
In this regard, an interesting thing happened in the middle, that is, the martial arts arena was damaged by Feng Rufeng, and Feng Rufeng himself lost half a year's salary.
However, he didn't pay attention to this. Instead, he thought that he got the good news after venting, and the money was well spent.
Feng Rufeng was not walking fast because he was carrying a heavy baggage, but his marching speed was not slow either, it was just slower than before.
So, after three days of emergency march, they had already seen Jingyong Pass.
Liang Du also saw Jingyong Pass for the first time, and felt that it was indeed the first pass to be stationed in the North of Daxia.
The majestic pass is rare in the world.
Feng Rufeng led his troops and did not enter the city, because he was a heavy army and had no military orders, so he could only station outside the city.
Of course, Zhao Kun, the general who defended the city, did not look down upon them. When the heavy troops arrived, he immediately changed defenses with his men and came to express his gratitude to Feng Rufeng in person.
After all, everyone in Juyongguan is a martial arts practitioner, which consumes a lot of food and grass. At this time, Feng Rufeng's arrival is their logistical support.
But the moment Zhao Kun saw Feng Rufeng, he was still a little flattered.
Although he didn't know Feng Rufeng, but he asked a Japanese envoy to serve as the general of the baggage army to send him food and grass. When did he have such dignity?
As for Feng Rufeng, as soon as he met Zhao Kun, he knew that he was a hard-blooded man, so he felt like old friends at first sight.
It didn't take long for Feng Rufeng to become familiar with Zhao Kun and even couldn't help but complain about it.
"General Zhao, you said I didn't make any mistakes. Why did the Military Aircraft Department let me be a transport troop? I also want to charge on the front line."
Of course Zhao Kun understood Feng Rufeng's mood. After all, he himself wanted to charge into the battle. If he became a baggage trooper, he would probably be depressed too.
But fortunately, Feng Rufeng said next that he was quite satisfied with being responsible for the baggage at Jingyong Pass.
After all, when you get here, are you still worried that there will be no battle to fight?
Zhao Kun nodded after hearing this, because the truth is indeed the truth. In times of crisis, who said that heavy supply troops cannot go to the battlefield?
After all, when the battle gets intense, it doesn't matter whether he is a baggage trooper or not, as long as he is a Daxia general, he can go.
After Zhao Kun and Feng Rufeng talked their hearts out, they became more and more confident about the entire war situation.
After all, Feng Rufeng's subordinates are all elites. Having such a heavy supply of troops is simply his luck.
If it weren't for the enemy, he would have wanted to have a drink with Feng Rufeng to express his excitement.
However, Zhao Kun did not discover Liang Du's existence, and Feng Rufeng did not intend to tell him. This was not because Feng Rufeng was worried that Zhao Kun would have any problems if he knew Liang Du was in the army.
After all, Liang Du is the man who got the imperial token. If he needs to be suspected, Daxia will just destroy him.
It's just that Liang Du didn't like to be interrupted hastily, so Feng Rufeng didn't create any complications.
Zhao Kun took his men and handed over part of the baggage to Feng Rufeng, and then returned to the city with part of the baggage.
He also needed to monitor the movements of the barbarians in the North. Because Mondor had been stationary for two days, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Although he looked down upon the barbarians in the North, the enemies they had to face this time were not just barbarians.
After all, after the world stage upgrade, Shiwan Yaoshan has awakened many old monsters!
Therefore, Zhao Kun did not relax his vigilance, but became more cautious, fearing that something would go wrong.
Jingyong Pass is Daxia's first line of defense against the barbarians in the north. If something goes wrong here, Zhao Kun will have no choice but to die to apologize.
Therefore, after receiving supplies from Feng Rufeng, he resumed patrolling the city wall just in case.
...
Feng Rufeng and his men did not enter Jingyong Pass for rest and recuperation due to the Great Xia military order. After all, this was a matter of principle.
However, he learned from Zhao Kun that the northern barbarians were already outside Jingyong Pass, and the more he thought about it, the more intolerable he became.
It would be great if he were the general guarding the gate, otherwise he could just lead the army now and kill him without leaving a single piece of armor behind.
Of course, this was just a random thought on his part. If he were put in Zhao Kun's position, I'm afraid everything he would do would be exactly the same as Zhao Kun.
As a general, you must pay attention to the overall situation, consider everything, and do not care about the gains and losses of a city, otherwise it may be a disaster.
However, he has already arrived at Jingyong Pass, so he suppresses his mood for the time being and is not afraid of being late for a good meal.
But the northern barbarians were standing still twenty miles outside Jingyong Pass. He really didn't understand.
Because this is not like the behavior of the barbarians in the north. If it had been before, these barbarians would have rushed over with howls.
Therefore, he felt that he had fallen into a misunderstanding of his own thinking, so he wanted to jump out and see if he could find the problem.
At this moment, the only person in the entire team who can clearly see clearly is probably Liang Du.
After all, he is not a soldier, and with his strength, he may be able to see more clearly.
Thinking of this, Feng Rufeng quickly found Liang Du, and Liang Du was a little strange when he saw Feng Rufeng coming to him at this time.
"Mr. Liang, Mr. Feng has something to discuss. I wonder if you are free?"
At this time, Liang Du had blocked his hearing because of the great sage's nagging, but he had not blocked his own perception.
So this time, he directly told the Great Sage to shut up, and then invited Feng Rufeng in.
After listening to Feng Rufeng's question, Liang Du himself didn't understand what the problem was.
At this time, he extended his perception to twenty miles away and saw that the Mondor tribe was indeed stationed there, but there was no movement.
He couldn't analyze the result and could only shake his head.
"General Feng, I don't know what's strange about this, but I think you don't need to worry about it.
After all, as long as the barbarians in the north dare to take action, we will take action. Are you still afraid of their strength?"
When Feng Rufeng heard this, he immediately shook his head.
He really doesn't have these thoughts.
If the barbarians from the north come, with Daxia's determination this time, they will definitely be unable to come back.
However, he also knew that the barbarians in the north were not to be feared. This time was different from before. The court was most worried about the Hundred Thousand Monster Mountain.
On the way to transport the baggage, he had already figured out why the Military Aircraft Department asked him to transport the baggage.
I am afraid that it is because they are worried that ordinary generals will easily get into trouble if Shiwan Yaoshan takes action. Therefore, the court considers this reason and allows itself to ensure the transportation of baggage.
After chatting with Liang Du for a while, Feng Rufeng finally decided that his troops should stay put.
It seems now that I was too excited in the past few days.
.......
While Feng Rufeng was asking Liang Du for advice, the Mendo tribe finally received the order.
In other words, he picked up two people.
One of them is a totem messenger, and the other is a middle-aged man with sinister eyes.
His clothes were very strange. They were not northern clothes at all. The weather was still cold at this time, so he only wore a few thin clothes.
However, at this time, Mondor, who had always claimed to be fearless, couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he saw this unknown man.
He couldn't help but wonder, where did the messenger find such a terrifying figure? Why did he feel so frightened just by looking at it?
However, it was not easy for him to ask the totem messenger these questions at this time, but when he heard the totem messenger's words, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then he was overjoyed.
Because the totem messenger only said one sentence to him just now——
"The time has come, Mondor, go to Jingyong Pass to prove your bravery!"
"Yes, sir."
Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of people shouting at the entire camp, asking the team to assemble quickly.
At this time, the totem messenger smiled at the other sinister person and said:
