Li Hongyun couldn't believe his eyes, but he confirmed again and again that this was indeed not like the southeastern sea frontier of the Dasheng Dynasty, but rather like the outside of the Great Wall.
"Could it be that...the timeline has changed?
"Is this so many years ago?
"According to historical records, General Deng was indeed transferred to defend Northern Xinjiang after quelling the bandits in the southeast, and he also made outstanding achievements.
"But...what does this have to do with the Southeast Bandits?"
Li Hongyun was a little confused.
Just then, he heard noises coming from outside the military camp.
"Anyone who breaks into the military camp without mercy will be killed! Do you want to die?"
"Please send a message and tell me that an old friend is visiting and has something very important to say to General Deng..."
"How can a beggar have a relationship with General Deng? Let's go, let's go!"
Li Hongyun couldn't help but frown. This voice always seemed familiar.
He took two quick steps and saw two soldiers stopping a beggar-looking man, trying to drive him away.
"Let him go!"
Li Hongyun shouted loudly.
The two soldiers were shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly said: "General, he..."
Li Hongyun's face turned cold: "Back off!"
Although the identity played by Li Hongyun is a "soldier", his status is constantly improving in battle after battle. He was already a deputy general during the Battle of Buning Port, and his status is obviously higher now.
The two soldiers did not dare to say anything more, bowed their heads and left.
Li Hongyun came to the beggar to identify him carefully, and then said in surprise: "Mr. Xu! What's going on?"
This beggar who looks disheveled and smells bad is none other than Mr. Xu, Governor Lin's aide he once played.
Mr. Xu looked puzzled: "Do you recognize me? It seems that you and I have never met before."
Only then did Li Hongyun remember that Mr. Xu's role as a staff member had indeed never seen the soldier he played.
But it didn't matter. Li Hongyun immediately took Mr. Xu to find General Deng.
"Mr. Xu? Why is this so!"
General Deng Yuanjing was also extremely surprised when he saw Mr. Xu's condition.
But actually, Li Hongyun was more surprised.
Because after seeing the state of General Deng and Mr. Xu, he was sure that this was indeed many years later, because the once heroic General Deng had turned gray at the temples and turned into a calm middle-aged man.
This undoubtedly confirms Li Hongyun's previous guess that this is the northern border of the Dasheng Dynasty!
"Quickly, take Mr. Xu to bathe and change clothes first!" General Deng said.
Mr. Xu waved his hand: "No need, General Deng, I came here just to see an old friend and I won't stay long.
"I heard that General Deng was training troops in northern Xinjiang with remarkable results. I accidentally remembered an incident from many years ago. So I wanted to come and meet General Deng and bring me a few words."
General Deng was a little confused, but he nodded: "Mr. Xu, please speak."
Mr. Xu pondered for a moment and said, "General Deng, do you still remember Lord Dutang?"
General Deng said sternly: "Master Dutang was kind to me, how could I not remember it? It's just a pity... The Yan Party collapsed, and Master Dutang was maliciously slandered. Although I intended to rescue him, he was so soft-spoken at that time.
Nothing can be done.
"Master Dutang died unjustly in prison. Every time I think about this, I deeply regret it..."
Mr. Xu said: "General Deng, in fact, Lord Dutang has already guessed his ending.
"One day, Lord Dutang received a secret letter. General Deng, do you know what is written in the secret letter?"
General Deng was silent for a moment: "Could it be that... the bird is gone and the bow is hidden?"
This time it was Mr. Xu's turn to be surprised.
"It seems that I have done something unnecessary.
"General Deng is a famous general of his generation. He is a great general among men, and he is able to achieve such great achievements. How can he not even understand this truth? Of course, I don't need to remind him.
"only……
"I still have to say one thing. General Deng, this moment is just like that moment.
"When the border troubles are completely cleared, I'm afraid General Deng will probably end up depressed like the Lord Supervisor back then."
General Deng was silent for a moment. He did not immediately respond to Mr. Xu's words, but instead asked a question.
"Mr. Xu, did you also say the same thing to Mr. Dutang back then?"
Mr. Xu was silent for a moment: "Yes."
General Deng showed a relieved expression on his face and said, "Then, my answer is the same as Lord Dutang."
Mr. Xu said nothing more, but looked at General Deng with a bit more reluctance and admiration in his expression.
"In that case, let's just say goodbye.
"General Deng, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, and we will never see you later.
"Please take care of yourself!"
General Deng nodded: "Please take care of yourself, Mr. Xu!"
Watching Mr. Xu leave the military camp, General Deng did not try to persuade him to stay. He just looked at the yellow sand in the sky in the distance. There seemed to be stars trembling in his eyes. He wondered if he was recalling a certain moment when he was fighting against bandits in the southeast many years ago.
"Urgent report!
"General, the Northern Barbarian Atulun tribe has raised an army of 100,000 to attack!"
General Deng stood up suddenly: "Okay, I'm afraid they won't come! After this battle is over, at least we can maintain peace in the northern Xinjiang of Dasheng Dynasty for decades!"
"Prepare the army for war!"
General Deng waved his cloak, and the soldiers began to get busy.
Li Hongyun was in a military camp preparing for war. As far as he could see, there were all kinds of new equipment.
As early as when he was fighting against the invaders in the southeast, General Deng had comprehensively improved the waist knives, shields, armor and other equipment. He also equipped a large number of blunderbuss and muskets. He also improved and installed on a large scale special weapons such as wolf knives to suppress the barbarians.
Knife weapon.
In just a few years of training, the Sheng army in the southeast had transformed from a defense force that was vulnerable to the enemy and fled from the enemy, to a tiger and wolf army with minimal battle losses that frightened the thieves and enemies.
But when we arrived in northern Xinjiang, the enemies were no longer bandits, but northern barbarians, so the way of fighting naturally changed.
Li Hongyun saw many new-style chariots, one foot and five feet long, with side compartments, which could carry more than ten soldiers, and various weapons such as flanges, blunderbuss, rattan, boring bars, rockets, etc.
There are even tanks carrying artillery.
Facing the charge of the Northern Barbarian cavalry, you only need to form a formation of chariots to calmly withstand the impact of the cavalry.
Then, cannons and artillery can rely on the vehicle formation to cause huge damage to the enemy.
In addition, there are also very powerful cavalry battalions in the army. These cavalry are all well-equipped, carry crossbows and firearms, and cooperate with infantry and chariots to fight, capable of attacking and defending.
The army set off and everything went in good order.
Li Hongyun looked at General Deng who had turned over and mounted his horse. At this time, he was obviously commanding a powerful army that was rarely seen in the world. However, as his back retreated, he always felt an indescribable loneliness.
Li Hongyun couldn't help but want to follow.
He wanted to play an ordinary soldier for the last time and fight side by side with General Deng!
It was a pity that his field of vision quickly rose, he separated from the body of the soldier, and soon reached the sky above the military formation.
Not far away, you can vaguely see smoke and dust billowing, which is the cavalry attack of the Northern Barbarians.
It’s just that you don’t need to fight to know their fate.
After several incursions, he was attacked head-on by General Deng and suffered heavy losses. Even the leader Atulun was almost captured alive, so he was forced to conclude a treaty. Since then, there have been basically no major disturbances in the northern frontier of Dasheng Dynasty.
In Li Hongyun's field of vision, the two sides began to fight.
Sheng's army relied on their chariot formations, firearms and cavalry to beat the Northern Barbarian cavalry into flight.
"Perhaps...this is the most outstanding achievement of those who are good at fighting."
Li Hongyun couldn't help but sigh like this.
Of course, General Deng is definitely not an unknown person. As a famous general who can leave his name in history, his popularity is certainly very high.
But compared to those famous generals in history who frequently massacred their armies and destroyed their countries, General Deng's record was not that impressive.
However, it was only after Li Hongyun actually fought alongside General Deng in "Dark Sand" that he realized what kind of genius he was.
Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements. Perhaps it is because General Deng is so invincible that from south to north, from the Eastern Yi to the Northern Barbarians, he has never found a real opponent.
The field of vision was raised again, and then gradually covered by fog.
Li Hongyun discovered that the last section is actually a bit similar to the cutscene after the end of the game, and it can be completed without any special operations.
But the conversation between Mr. Xu and General Deng did have the finishing touch of echoing the whole story.
"Goodbye, General Deng.
"Future generations will never forget you."
Li Hongyun's heart was full of mixed feelings and there were too many emotions, but it was difficult to express them at the same time.
Finally, several lines of prompts appeared in his field of vision.
