Chapter 672 The heroic army goes to northern Xinjiang
The three messages brought back by the three messengers were more shocking and more tragic than the last.
So much so that the palace hall was suddenly shrouded in a thick haze.
Finally, it was Xia Caiyue who broke the silence: "Grandpa, the matter is irreversible. It is useless for us to regret and be depressed. We might as well go on with more determination!"
Xia Chunqiu thought deeply: "That's right! If we lose the reputation of righteousness, at most we will encounter more resistance during the battle. As long as we can win the final victory, we don't need such a vain reputation."
History is written by the victors. This is particularly clear in this foreign world where fists are the last word.
Xia Chunqiu was indeed worthy of being a hero. He regained his fighting spirit in an instant and said sternly: "Nowadays, in terms of military strength and generals, our army with the help of Taikoo is far better than Xia Yuanlong's fellow."
"Besides, the Beiyi tribe is always threatening Xia Yuanlong's rear. The entire situation is still extremely favorable to us!"
"For today's plan, we must move quickly. The operation originally planned for a week will be carried out immediately."
"As for General Tai Kou Huolin, I will personally coordinate the deployment with him."
"I obey my orders!"
…
At the same time, in the imperial capital of Daxia, Tianqibao Pavilion.
Miao Ling and Shun Lao both put on military uniforms and wore flaming red masks - this was a gadget specially prepared by Chen Shen for them to hide their true appearance and distinguish them from the people in Tianqi Pavilion.
.
In addition, the boy also gave away the male and female leopards from the lottery last night, which were now put into the animal bag and tied around their waists.
Relying on the miraculous effect of the "Mount Binding Order", Shun Lao and Ling'er, two "rookies" in mounted combat, instantly became experienced knights. They could command the male and female leopards with just a thought, which really made them happy.
For quite a while.
"Second Uncle, this Xuan Ring contains enough Xuan Dan and Xuan Talisman for Tianqi Pavilion to sell for two years. As for Xuan Shi, Xuan Bing, Shun Lao and Ling'er left behind, it is almost enough to sell for ten months. Come to think of it.
It’s enough to support us until we return home in triumph.”
"Lao Zhang, Lao Lu, Miss Xiang, after I leave, I will ask you to help my second uncle take care of the heavy burden of Tianqi Pavilion."
Chen Shen talked eloquently to the people at this table.
Xiang Nanren curled his lips and said, "It's not just a day or two since you became a hands-off shopkeeper. We have long been used to it."
"Ouch? That sounds full of complaints." The young man chuckled.
Among the people in the room, he was the only one who could laugh at this moment.
After everyone heard the news that he had issued a military order in front of the King of Daxia and started the Northern Expedition, everyone looked solemn.
"Hmph, you can go with peace of mind. As long as the King of Huai'an and the Taikoo people can't destroy the royal city, my Tianqibao Pavilion will be safe and sound, waiting for you to come back and share the spoils."
Speaking of this, Xiang Nan pursed her red lips calmly: "If my current practice hadn't been stuck at a critical moment, I wouldn't have minded traveling with you."
"I haven't fought for a long time, my bones are almost rusty!"
Chen Shen smiled noncommittally, but heard Zhang Yidao and Lu Yijian say in unison: "Pavilion Master, please protect Ling'er."
These two men had entrusted the orders of their late mentor, and they cared about Miao Ling even more than Chen Shen.
The young man patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry. Okay, don't worry, I'm going to the battlefield to perform meritorious service, not to go to a dangerous place. Can you guys not be so serious?"
"You brat... everyone cares about you, but you are heartless. Don't treat going to the battlefield as a child's play, understand?" Chen Xiaohai laughed and cursed angrily.
"I know, I know."
Chen Shen stood up and bowed his hands to several people: "It's almost time, let's go. On the day of my triumph, let's get together again and keep getting drunk!"
"Well, we are waiting for you."
…
After leaving the Tianqibao Pavilion, Chen Shen picked up another acquaintance: Qian Miaoling, who also wore a flowing fire mask.
This long-legged girl joined the Bloody Guards as a personal follower, but in fact, Chen Shen took her to join the army in order to keep abreast of the progress of the Huainan Campaign and Mr. Chen through her one-line secret contact method with the ancestors of the Qian Family.
situation.
Miao Ling and Qian Miaoling met for the first time. While they were full of curiosity about each other, they also respected each other as guests.
But what Chen Shen didn't know was that the long-legged beauty had an unknown little thought: "I don't know what the relationship between Ling'er and Mr. Chen is? The way she looked at Mr. Chen, there was obviously a trace of love and affection.
Admiration..."
Half an hour later, Chen Shen led the Xuewei Guards to the Xiaoqi Army camp outside the city and joined forces.
An hour later, the ten Xuanjing heavy cannons and baggage promised by King Daxia were all in place.
Chen Shen waved his hand, and a large number of items were collected into his bag.
He already has a lot of Space Mysterious Rings: he had previously surrendered three four-star ones from the elders of the Tianlei Sect, and he also got a three-star Mysterious Ring for killing General Noda.
In addition to the three black and white demons and Chen Jinyang, as the cultivation level increases, the space package that comes with the invincible system has also grown to an extremely broad level, which is comparable to the five-star mysterious ring.
All of the above turned this young man into a "moving warehouse", capable of loading hundreds of double-carriage cargoes with ease.
When this scene fell on the people in the convoy that came to deliver supplies, they were deeply shocked——
"My dear, he can actually store all this mountain of supplies into the Space Mysterious Ring? How high a grade of ring does this have to be?"
"Tsk, tsk, seven space mystical rings, I have finally seen what it means to be rich and wealthy today!"
The men and horses transporting the supplies were shocked, but for the Xiaoqi Army, Chen Shen's move solved a big problem for them.
For these elite cavalry, coming and going like fire is the essence of their battle.
But generally speaking, when troops go on an expedition, hauling baggage will inevitably slow down the marching speed.
When wartime comes, they have to divide their troops to guard the baggage to prevent enemy attacks. This waste of resources and the laborious "burden" often result in a unit that can only exert 70% of its combat power in the face of war.
But now, all the supplies have gone into Major General Chen's "pocket".
The Qiaoqi Army can bet on every battle without any worries. Invisibly, the overall combat power of this team will be greatly improved...
Immediately, three thousand bloody guards and twenty thousand brave cavalry troops, led by Chen Shen, rushed to northern Xinjiang in a mighty manner.
More than 20,000 war horses galloped on the spacious official road. The ground rumbled and smoke billowed. Their momentum was like wind and tide, and their shape was like fire and dragon, which shocked many caravans passing by.
While hurriedly avoiding the situation, they saw that the leader of this majestic cavalry was actually a handsome young man, and they were even more shocked...
When the majestic cavalry brigade arrived at Guanfeng Gorge, three hundred miles north of the imperial capital, Chen Shen suddenly raised his arms, roared like a lion, and issued his first general order since the expedition: "The whole army stops...
