Over the mountains and through the valleys, the hustle and bustle in the distance has long gone.
Only then did Zhang He and his party dare to stop and take a breath.
As soon as they drank some water from the mountain spring, they heard the barking of a dog from behind. Several people looked at each other, and they all saw doubts in each other's eyes: Where did the dog come from at this time?
"Could it be a woodcutter's family nearby?"
Someone said something.
"This hunter is quite bold..."
Someone else answered.
Zhang He turned around suddenly, with a nervous look on his face, "No! This must be the Han army chasing us! Let's go quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the roar of the wind, and a crossbow arrow was shot. It was blocked by the dense vegetation and landed not far behind him.
At the same time, there was a figure jumping from the left side, apparently trying to block the way ahead.
"Go to the right!"
Zhang He took the lead and walked through the mountain forest on the right.
Li Hun saw Thief Cao disappearing all of a sudden, gritted his teeth, cursed secretly, and ordered, "You continue to chase, I'll go to the front."
After saying that, he ran to the right alone.
At that time, in order to meet the magistrate of Nanxiang County, Han Long also used his unique tracking skills to hunt down the evildoers ordered by the government to hunt down. Although Liu Hun was not as good as his master, he finally learned some skills.
He looked at the direction in which Zhang He and others were running, then made an estimate, climbed over the mountain, and searched continuously.
Unexpectedly, when he climbed over the mountain, there was a sound of rushing water. When he looked up, he saw a river suddenly appearing in front of him.
His mind moved. The river looked like it was flowing to the foot of Nanshan Mountain in Jieting.
Now Longguan in the east and street pavilions in the west are both under the control of the Han Dynasty.
Don't go to the north, otherwise Zhang He and others will starve to death in the mountains of Longshan.
Only in the south, there are Cao thieves from Qingshui County in Guangwei County who can take over, so they must go south.
If you go south, you must cross this river.
Liu Hun kept patrolling the river and found a ford where he could cross the river, and then found a place to hide.
I don't know how much time passed, but I heard someone shouting loudly not far away, "General, you can cross the river here!"
He quietly poked his head out from behind the big rock, and saw a group of people hugging an old man in his fifties hurrying towards him. Who could it be if it wasn't Zhang He?
Very good!
Liu Hun was overjoyed. He sat on the ground, pushed the ring on the heavy crossbow, then used the pull rod to stretch the string to the maximum. Finally, he put the arrow feathers into the arrow slot and began to raise the crossbow to aim.
Looking along the Wangshan Mountain on the crossbow, Liu Hun found that Zhang Heli was between 200 and 150 steps away. He couldn't help but feel a little worried: Zhang Heli was surrounded by so many people, and he only had one chance.
Just have to find a good angle.
"God bless us, we must succeed..."
Liu Hun silently muttered about the faith on the grassland and narrowed his eyes.
Zhang He led his guards into the river. Seeing the nervous expressions on their faces, he couldn't help but smile and comfort him, "Don't worry, as long as I wait to cross this river, the dogs of the Shu captives will be useless."
.At that time, they will no longer pursue...ah!"
Before Zhang He finished speaking, he suddenly screamed and couldn't stand, so he turned over and fell into the river.
The sound of the river below covered up the sound of bowstrings and the sound of arrows and crossbows flying through the air.
"General!"
When the guards saw him, they hurriedly bent down to help him up.
Some people turned their heads and looked around, "Someone is attacking!"
When Liu Hun saw Zhang He fall, he was overjoyed and did not dare to stay any longer. He immediately got up and ran away.
Opposite are the general's personal guards, who are beyond comparison with ordinary soldiers. In order to facilitate tracking, I did not bring the spear with me, only a crossbow and a knife.
If the people on the opposite side swarm him, he may not be able to beat him. Anyway, Zhang He has already been hit by an arrow and is not far from death.
This crossbow arrow is a poisonous arrow specially used in the Dark Night Camp. It is said that if you are hit by the arrow, you will definitely die unless you let Feng Langjun's medical workers treat it.
Seeing a figure escaping quickly, the guards' eyes turned red. Everyone was filled with rage and wanted to rush over and cut the man into pieces.
They were about to escape, but something like this happened at the last moment. How could they not be shocked and angry?
"Stop chasing me. I'm fine. I just got an arrow in my knee."
"This person ran away with one blow. It is obvious that there are no accomplices nearby. Take this opportunity and run away quickly!"
Zhang He was helped up and his body was already soaked. A long arrow penetrated his knee, causing him to break into a cold sweat. When he saw someone wanting to turn around and chase him, he gritted his teeth and tried to dissuade him.
When the guards saw that Zhang He was only injured, they were overjoyed. They quickly carried Zhang He on their backs and tried their best to leave this ghost place as soon as possible.
Liu Hun ran away far away. When he saw that no one was chasing him, he stood still and suddenly burst into laughter.
After returning home, all he has to do is wait for news from Cao Cao. As long as the news comes that Zhang He has died, then this great achievement will definitely be his.
Thinking like this, he looked for another direction and prepared to follow the direction of the river back to the street pavilion.
Street pavilion.
"Is General Feng okay?"
Jiang Wei came to the handsome audience and asked cautiously.
A head popped out from above, "Oh, it's General Jiang, come up."
Jiang Wei got permission and dared to go up to the high platform. He saw Feng Yong had found a chair from somewhere and was sitting there listlessly, his eyelids drooping constantly.
He couldn't help being surprised, "General Feng was injured?"
"Oh, nothing happened, I'm just too tired."
Feng Yong replied feebly, "I haven't slept a wink in the past, and I have directed this battle again. I have tried my best to be exhausted. Now that I am relieved, I just want to sleep."
But the words you used to scold Zhang He were very angry!
Jiang Wei thought in his mind, but followed Feng Yong's words, "General Feng led his army all the way down from Longguan, and commanded the army to defeat Zhang He without taking a rest. He must have worked hard, and it is normal to be a little tired."
"Yes!" Feng Yong replied without blushing. He didn't think there was any problem with the statement that he "commanded this war." "It does make sense that this mountain-climbing general is called a famous general. He was so difficult to deal with that he almost
He succeeded."
Jiang Wei's face twitched, and he thought to himself, Zhang He's title as Mountain Climbing General was decided just like that?
"It's just that as the coach, I can't live without him. Now that General Jiang is here, can you do me a favor?"
"General Feng, please give me your orders."
Jiang Wei said quickly.
"Very good!"
Feng Yong nodded, stood up, took off his cloak and tied it on Jiang Wei, then took off his helmet and put it on Jiang Wei's head.
"General Feng, this is..."
Jiang Wei asked with some confusion.
"I'm going to get some sleep first. Please ask General Jiang to help me stand here and show off to the soldiers below."
Feng Yong explained casually.
When Jiang Wei heard this, he was very anxious and quickly grabbed Feng Yong's wrist, "How could this happen? If someone finds out, this... this..."
"Huh, as long as no one comes up, who will know?"
Feng Yong pointed to the distance, "Now that we have won a big victory, everyone has gone to chase the defeated army. They won't be able to come back for a while. In addition, there is no need for the commander to give orders at this time. Staying here is just a show.
.”
"And don't worry, the generals under me can solve problems on their own and know what to do at this time. No one will come to trouble you."
The next step is to calculate the merits, account for the losses, treat the injured, give everyone a delicious meal, and then count the captives, etc.
A professional logistics management team is responsible for all of this. Feng Yong doesn't have to worry about it at all. He only needs to know the final statistics.
Feng Yong saw that Jiang Wei still looked frightened, and immediately said, "If someone really comes looking for me, General Jiang will just call me. Is that okay?"
Staying on this high platform may look majestic, but in fact, you are just showing off silently.
Just like this, it can boost the morale of the soldiers and make them think that the coach is always watching them. It can also enhance the majesty of the coach and unite people's hearts.
But for Feng Turtle at this time, as long as the person standing here is a humanoid creature, it can meet this requirement. Others only think it is him, so who can pretend or not?
He was almost exhausted, so he might as well take a nap to regain some energy.
"But General Feng, the last general brought a lot of Qiang and Hu this time. If they have anything to do with me..."
"Ha, that's just right. General Jiang can stand up here and give orders. Others will only think you are standing next to me."
Feng Yong smiled while stroking his hands, then yawned again, waved his hands, sat back in the chair, tilted his head and closed his eyes.
When Feng Yong said he was tired, he was not joking.
He led the troops all the way down from Longguan and was under great pressure. He never slept a wink. In addition, he faced Zhang He for most of the day and was extremely nervous.
Once you relax, your whole body will not only feel sore and your steps will feel soft, but more importantly, your mind will become a little blurry. As long as you stay still for a while, you can fall asleep immediately while standing.
He knew that this was a warning from his body and brain that he was overtired, so at this last insignificant moment of the battle, he really couldn't stand it anymore and needed to get some sleep.
Originally, it was not impossible to remove the handsome flag directly from the high platform.
But at this time, it is the time to enhance the self-confidence and cohesion of the new army. The commander's flag is standing on the high platform, which means that the coach is with them.
Feng Yong was naturally unwilling to let go of such an opportunity.
Just as Jiang Wei arrived, Feng Yong conveniently gave him the task of watching the soldiers - as long as he didn't climb up to get a real look, who would know that the guy standing on the high platform was not the commander?
After listening to Feng Yong's words, Jiang Wei remembered that these Qiang and Hus would eventually have to be dealt with by Feng Yong. If he stood here, he could use Feng Langjun's name to give the Qiang and Hus peace of mind.
With this thought in his mind, he moved his lips and finally acquiesced.
"Go and get me a woolen blanket. It's quite windy."
Feng Yongke didn't care what Jiang Wei was thinking, he felt a little uncomfortable sleeping and grumbled again.
"promise."
Buqu, who was guarding the side, quickly ran off the stage, and soon came up with a thick blanket in his arms.
Jiang Wei:……
"Comfortable."
Feng Yong yawned again, his eyes were sore and watering from his eyes. He directly picked up the blanket and wiped it, then slumped down on the chair and fell asleep.
Jiang Wei stood there blankly, his eyes involuntarily looking at Feng Yong who was sleeping soundly.
I saw that his features were pretty and there was no gloomy look on his face. I thought to myself that Feng Langjun was young and had an upright face, so he didn't seem to be a ruthless person...
Maybe it’s because I’ve been under too much pressure recently, or maybe I’m thinking about something, so I have a dream.
Zhang Xingyi appeared in the dream, and he learned a trick from Guan Ji, called reverse push. At the most critical moment, Guan Ji suddenly rushed in with a cold face, holding a long knife and was about to cut the heartless man into pieces, and then...
…
Someone patted him on the shoulder, and at the same time a voice sounded in his ear, "You are at ease, kid. We are all going to chase Cao Cao, but you are sleeping here."
Feng Yong was so excited that he shouted loudly without even opening his eyes, "Listen to my explanation..."
After shouting, he realized that he had woken up from his dream. He rubbed his eyes and saw someone looking down at him.
These eyes, this face...
"Hey, uncle...uh, General Zhang, why are you here?"
Feng Tibi was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and quickly stood up.
Fortunately, this term is not popular these days, otherwise Zhang Bao would have to fall out.
"Don't worry, everyone knows that you are exhausted. As long as you win a big victory, no one will investigate these minor problems. It's such a trivial matter, no need to explain."
Zhang Bao patted his shoulder and said considerately.
Feng Yong chuckled and did not explain.
Only then did he realize that it was completely dark and he didn't know what time it was.
Torches were lit on the high platform, and not only Zhang Bao came, but also Liu Yin, Zhang Yi, Wang Han, Liu Hun and others were there, making the high platform crowded.
He looked at Jiang Wei, the meaning in his eyes was clear: Why don't you wake me up?
Jiang Wei looked a little embarrassed and sweated slightly on his forehead, "General Feng, you were too asleep just now. The general called a few times but couldn't wake you up."
He had just been hired recently, and Feng Langjun's reputation was so great that he was worried about being remembered by someone, so he was naturally a little nervous.
Feng Yong suddenly realized that no wonder in his dream, when he and Zhang Xingyi were alone in the room, they heard someone calling him outside the door.
Liu Yin, on the other hand, cupped his hand and said, "General Feng was calm and composed in front of the formation, and he was able to lie down peacefully. This magnanimity is truly admirable."
After a few words, the situation was resolved, and everyone was smiling.
After laughing, Zhang Bao sighed, "Not long after I arrived in Jicheng, I heard the news of the fall of Lueyang. This situation is already beyond the prime minister's arrangement."
"Later, I hurriedly led the army northward. I heard about Ma Di's defeat halfway, and my heart was already cold. I had no sleep day and night thinking about the journey."
"If the street pavilion is lost, the Northern Expedition will be in vain, and the losses will be extremely heavy. Therefore, I have cursed Ma Di more than once. He is a sinner of the Han Dynasty. Killing him will not relieve my hatred."
"I didn't expect that when I recaptured Lueyang, I first heard that the street pavilion had not been lost, and then I heard that you had led your army to return for reinforcements. It was really beyond my expectation."
Having said this, Zhang Bao patted Feng Yong on the shoulder again and praised, "In this Northern Expedition, you first captured Longguan and then defeated Zhang He. You are truly the number one hero of the Northern Expedition."
After hearing this, Feng Yong couldn't stop the smile on his face. He waved his hand and said modestly, "I didn't defeat Zhang He, I just had a stalemate with him."
"Zhang He is a famous general, and his men are elite soldiers. I heard that there are many veterans of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry who chased the late emperor on Changban Slope. You can fight like this with him, and few people can match it."
Already."
Zhang Bao said sincerely, "Even if I come, I won't be able to do this, so you don't have to be modest."
Speaking of Ma Su, Feng Yong suddenly remembered and slapped his thigh, "Oh no, I forgot to send people to collect the defeated troops from Lueyang and Ma Di's defeated troops."
