The passerby who doesn't have a word in the book

Chapter 42 42

"Are you wondering why we didn't keep it?"

Xiao Di, who has been silent all this time, picked out Xie Fanghan's hidden meaning.

Xie Fanghan nodded. Although she had just arrived, on the way from the gate of the barracks to the barracks, she also noticed something strange.

The words "strong soldiers and strong horses" are no exaggeration to describe this place.

The state of the soldiers is also very good, not like the state after so many defeats.

Wu Xiaoshan glanced at Feng Yu, Feng Yu received the gaze, and explained aloud: "The three gates rely on natural dangers, and the generals in the garrison are generally not very good at fighting. They don't want merit, as long as they can guard a gate."

Xie Fanghan: "As far as I know, it took no more than five days for the three gates to be broken. At this speed, I am afraid that the horses of Dayue who have opened the gates of the three gates can run so fast."

"It's about the same as what you said."

Xie Fanghan was taken aback by Feng Yu's words, she just said it casually, she had considered this issue on the way, the time for the three barriers to be breached was too short, after hearing Feng Yu's words, it turned out to be a "send" ?

Feng Yu: "Among the guards of the three gates, the outermost guard of Zhenbei Gate defected directly to Dayue. The guard of the next day's gate was killed in the chaos before he could do anything. He's in the barracks right now."

"You saved it?" she asked.

Wu Xiaoshan sneered, and his tone was full of disdain: "Help? If I had come earlier, I would have killed him. He would have abandoned the guards and ran into Lianshan City by himself. We didn't show up until we arrived."

Xie Fanghan nodded thoughtfully, took out another map from his pocket, and said to the people in the room very naturally: "I have an idea, three generals."

She briefly stated her thoughts, and as soon as she finished speaking, she was unanimously opposed by the people in the room.

Feng Yu: "No way!"

Wu Xiaoshan: "Nonsense!"

Xiao Di: "It's too much fun."

Xie Fanghan looked at the three of them in turn, and their reactions were within her expectations.

She slowed down her tone and asked modestly: "What do the three generals think is inappropriate for my idea?"

Wu Xiaoshan had the worst temper and was the first to speak out: "Let's not talk about anything else. It is impossible for you to take down seven cities overnight. Even if there are not many soldiers stationed in each city of Dayue, the siege battle It is very time-consuming in itself.”

Xie Fanghan waved his hands, and said in a casual tone, "I don't need soldiers to attack the city, I can open the city gate myself."

Wu Xiaoshan was irritated by her tone, and said in a serious tone with a sullen face: "The important place of the military camp is not a place for you to speak nonsense."

Xie Fanghan was not annoyed, he just said: "I will show the three generals a little while about this point, and after reading the three generals, they will understand. What is the problem now besides siege?"

After she finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Feng Yu, but it was the quiet Xiao Di who didn't want to speak first.

Xiao Di: "Even if we really win two passes and seven cities overnight, Dayue will definitely not let it go when they get the news. What about the people in the remaining ten cities?"

In fact, this is also the reason why their Beibei Army has not moved for a long time. They are not afraid of a round of war, but they are afraid of the lives of the people of Seventeen Cities in Dayue's hands.

Xie Fanghan nodded, and said seriously: "I have thought about this issue. The most difficult thing for us now is the people in the city. Unless we can capture the seventeen cities at the same time, otherwise, marching rashly will give the opponent a clue."

Wu Xiaoshan couldn't help but said, "Since you know, why did you send troops?"

Xie Fanghan looked at him and explained solemnly: "It is because we can't fight that we want to fight, and the people of Da Viet also know that we dare not fight, so we have to do the opposite, not only to fight, but also to make them scared , make them afraid, and then negotiate terms with them."

"About terms?" Xiao Di stared at Xie Fanghan with sharp eyes.

"Yeah." Xie Fanghan nodded and looked at him without fear: "Da Yue's crime is nothing more than food. The emperor gave me 30 food and grass. This is the capital of the negotiation. We can directly negotiate terms with them after the next day is cleared." If you want food and grass, you can’t move the people in ten cities. If you want food, don’t want a ration. I can fight seven cities tonight. However, the surplus food in the hands of the common people will not be particularly large, and they cannot afford to consume it."

Feng Yu couldn't help but said, "Food and grass are military resources."

Xie Fanghan curled his lips: "Isn't military funds also used for war? As long as you can fight back to the Three Passes and Seventeen Cities, eat it or throw it away. It doesn't make the same difference. Anyway, it's all approved to me."

"You..." Feng Yu frowned and looked at his apprentice.

Chen Chengdao told him that Xie Fanghan did not act according to common sense, and today he has seen it.

"Da Yue is naturally murderous, I'm worried that your words won't shock them." Xiao Di thought for a while, but was still a little worried.

Xie Fanghan frowned: "I understand what General Xiao is worried about, but with all due respect, Da Yue will not massacre the city for food, but you and I both know the other things, it is difficult to guarantee."

Xiao Di was silent.

How could he not understand what Xie Fanghan said, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Then there is only one problem now." Feng Yu looked at Xie Fanghan: "How do you break through the gates of seven cities overnight."

Xie Fanghan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Since Feng Yu asked this, he basically agreed with his plan: "Please trouble the three generals to take me to a place where no one is around, farther away and wider."

boom!

……

Xie Fanghan put down her bow and arrow, looking at the wreckage in the distance, her eyes were neither sad nor happy. She thought a lot on the way. In the original book, Yan Yutang was forced to marry Dayue because of this. It can be seen that Dayan compromised at that time. If she wanted to change, Then you must show a card that can break the deadlock.

Dayan has fireworks, but the quantity is not large. When she was in Xijing, she asked the guards to buy a lot of them secretly, and after many times of adjustments by her, this is the "brand" that she has today.

This "card" is her life-saving hole card. If the deadlock is not difficult to break, she will never use it. She doesn't know what kind of plot impact her interference will cause, but as much as possible, she doesn't want to change too much. many.

"Okay!" Wu Xiaoshan said and slapped Xie Fanghan on the shoulder, half of Xie Fanghan's body was numb due to the strength.

Xiao Di stood there gasping for air with a "hiss hiss".

Feng Yu looked at her with a complicated face: "This is your reliance?"

Xie Fanghan nodded: "Yes."

Feng Yu looked deeply: "How many of these things do you have?"

Xie Fanghan said without changing his face: "Not many, it is enough to break open the gates of the seven cities."

Wu Xiaoshan also reacted and quickly asked: "Where did this thing come from, can I still get it?"

Xie Fanghan met his eyes, looked at the enthusiasm in his eyes, and poured a basin of cold water on it unceremoniously: "I received this from a Haike, that's all, it probably came from overseas."

Xiao Di said with deep meaning: "This thing is too lethal, and it will hurt the peace of the world. It's better for the little general to use it sparingly."

Xie Fanghan acted as if he couldn't understand the meaning of his words, and replied with a smile: "If it weren't for such a deadlock, I wouldn't use it either."

Xiao Di nodded: "It's the best."

Feng Yu restrained his emotions, looked at Xie Fanghan and said: "Since we have the method of siege, let's go back and prepare separately, and we will be able to send troops in a few days."

Xie Fanghan shook his head and said seriously: "No, we will do it tonight."

Feng Yu frowned and said nothing.

Wu Xiaoshan also had a rare hesitation in his tone: "Would it be too fast tonight?"

"What?" She looked at the three generals: "Isn't the Zhenbei Army always preparing for war?"

Feng Yu explained: "Of course we can send troops at any time, but you, according to the plan, you have to bring the cavalry first. You just arrived today, and the Zhenbei Army is not familiar with it yet, so I'm afraid it may not be a good cooperation."

"That's it..." Xie Fanghan nodded thoughtfully, looked at Feng Yu and said, "Before dispatching troops, there will always be one... um, mobilization meeting, it doesn't matter if you don't know me now, they will know me soon."

The three generals looked at each other, silently discussing Xie Fanghan's proposal with their eyes.

In order to avoid suspicion, Feng Yu did not participate in the decision, leaving Xiao Di and Wu Xiaoshan to look at each other briefly.

Xiao Di was the first to look away, turned to Xie Fanghan and nodded: "Okay, let's do as you said, what do we need to do?"

"Then trouble General Xiao to bring the generals stationed at Lianshan Pass," she said.

It was the first time for Xie Fanghan to speak in front of so many people, and the dense crowd below were all connected to the horizon at a glance.In her previous life, she was just an ordinary student, not even a student representative, let alone a general who led troops to fight.

The general at Lianshan Pass was brought up, and he stood sideways, with a strong smell of alcohol still coming from his body, his eyes drooping as if he hadn't sobered up yet.

Xie Fanghan noticed that many of the soldiers below were looking at him with anger in their eyes. The official rank of a garrison general is the fourth rank. To deal with him, the emperor must order it. .

How should I begin?

Xie Fanghan stood on the stage and thought about it a lot, whether it was imposing, gentle, or aggressive, after much deliberation, he felt that it was inappropriate.

She didn't speak, and no one around made a sound. Many soldiers in the audience were looking at her, but they didn't make a sound.

bass.

She pulled out her sword, and under everyone's surprised eyes, she stabbed the sword into the heart of the general stationed at Lianshan Pass.

The garrison probably didn't expect that someone could kill him without saying a word until his death.

Xie Fanghan drew out the sword and held it upside down by his side. A warm liquid slowly flowed to her hand along the lines of the cold front, from warm to cold.

She noticed that the soldiers in the audience looked at her differently.

This is a good start.

She held the sword in one hand, and held up the tiger talisman Wei Baili gave her in the other.

"This Tiger Talisman was given to me by my grandfather Wei Baili, General Wei." She said while looking around at the soldiers below: "But I don't think I'm qualified to hold this right now."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards Feng Yu and said loudly: "General Feng, I will put this tiger talisman with you first, and when the three passes and seventeen cities are recovered, the Zhenbei Army thinks I am qualified to take it. Give it to me, if in the end you feel that I am not worthy, then please send it back to my grandfather."

Feng Yu looked at the tiger talisman handed over by his apprentice, twitched his eyes, gave her a hard look, and reached out to take the tiger talisman.

Xie Fanghan smiled, turned around, and faced the soldiers in the audience again.

"As for me, although I was taught by General Feng since I was a child, I have never been on the battlefield or killed anyone. It was the first time I killed someone just now." Xie Fanghan said this, and smiled at the soldiers below: " I didn't expect that the first time I killed was a fourth-rank official."

"I know that the life and death of a fourth-rank official needs to be ruled by an imperial decree, but he deserves to die. He carries the life of a soldier on his back, but eats and drinks in the camp every day. He is not worthy of our life to protect him, so I will kill him, Your Majesty. If you want to blame me, then wait until I return to Xijing."

She looked at the reactions of the soldiers and saw that they accepted it well, and continued:

"If it wasn't for the invasion from the Northland, I might never go to the battlefield for the rest of my life. It would be great to be my young master in Xijing. Not only me, but you as well. Who wants to go to the battlefield with their lives every day, and who doesn't want to take care of their parents, wife and children at home? The reason why I came here is the same. Da Yue wolf is ambitious and occupied our city. Let us exchange food and princesses. Let me ask you, are you willing to spend a year of hard work and your wife for nothing? Feed it to the wolf!"

"I don't want to!"

Listening to the shocking echo, Xie Fanghan smiled and continued: "I don't want to either. The 30 grains are the people of our Dayan. Your relatives worked so hard to plant them, and the princess..." She paused, tightly Holding the sword in his hand, his tone was a little hasty, but he still said loudly: "The Fifth Highness is my unmarried wife."

"Oh~" the soldiers booed after hearing the words.

No matter the time of day, royal gossip is quite welcome.

Xie Fanghan didn't care about their booing, he raised his hand and continued: "I'm telling you this just to tell you that the one standing in front of you is not the grandson of General Wei, nor is it the future son-in-law. Just like you, standing here is to defend your family and defend your country to avenge your hatred, hatred is national hatred, hatred is family hatred, you are protecting your own small family, and you are defending the entire Northern Territory of Dayan."

At the end of her speech, her voice was sonorous, and many soldiers blushed after hearing it.

She looked at the people below, and her tone was unprecedentedly serious: "When I asked His Majesty for the imperial decree, I told him: the emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country."

"Today I stand here and say to you: If people don't attack me, I will not attack others. If people attack me, I will kill them no matter how far away!"

"You guys, do you dare to call me back!"

"war!"

"war!"

"war!"

The roar resounded throughout the world, the sky in the north was very high, but at this moment she felt a sense of indomitable spirit, looking at the soldiers below who were full of fighting spirit, she also felt great pride from the bottom of her heart.

She looked down and asked loudly, "Where is the Chasing Wind Camp?"

The soldiers in silver helmets replied loudly.

"exist!"

Xie Fanghan slowly raised the sword in his hand and said word by word in their direction:

"Whoever dares to fight with me, get on the horse!"
