Luo Yao stood on the river embankment, looking into the distance as Jie led the cavalry from the Shanzi Battalion and slowly headed towards Hebei through the pontoon bridge. His eyes were always fixed on the tall figure at the front of the team, and there was a very special meaning in his eyes. No one saw that fleeting brilliance, which meant a lot.
The man in black robe standing behind him could not see his eyes either, but it was as if he could look straight into Luo Yao's heart. When Luo Yao stared at Fang Jie's back, a strange smile appeared on the face hidden by the black-robed man's mask.
"Inform brothers Duan Bianbao and Duan Bianxiong on the north bank and ask them to keep a close eye on the movements of Shanzi Camp. Tell them that if anything happens to the imperial envoy, I will pick off the two guys who are eating from their necks. . If the imperial envoy is lost, the two of them will pick a cemetery by themselves."
The soldier responded and immediately turned around and left.
Wen Xiaodao stood on the other side of Luo Yao, with a raised corner of his mouth as if he was dissatisfied.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a very strange feeling in his heart, and subconsciously glanced to the side, and then saw the half-smiling look of the man in black robe with only one eye exposed. Wen Xiaodao was shocked and subconsciously tightened his hand on the handle of Hengdao.
He doesn¡¯t know where this man in black robe comes from.
¡°In the entire left front guard, no one except Luo Yao knows who he is.
When the man in black robe first appeared in the army, Luo Yao introduced him as Mo, his best friend from the army. So everyone on the left wing called him General Mo, but no one had seen his face. He himself said that his face was disfigured on the battlefield. He was too ugly and hideous, so he didn't want others to see him. And the reason why he always wears a black robe to cover his body is because he also has scars all over his body.
Luo Yao directly assigned an army to him from the left forward. Later, people collectively called this General Mo and the other nine generals as the Luomen Ten Heroes. Although this General Mo ranked last, it is obvious that his status Compared to others, even higher than Wen Xiaodao.
Luo Yao seems to attach great importance to this person's opinion, which is particularly surprising. You must know that people like Luo Yao are dictatorial most of the time and rarely change their decisions because of other people's opinions. He is used to giving orders rather than letting his subordinates influence his thoughts.
The person Wen Xiaodao fears most among the left midfielders is not Zhan Yao, but General Mo.
He always felt that the only exposed eye of General Mo had a magical power, which seemed to be able to break through all obstacles and see directly into everyone's heart. Every time he looked at General Mo, he felt that he had become naked, even his soul was exposed, without any covering.
Therefore, Wen Xiaodao thought about killing this person more than once.
Of course, he didn¡¯t dare.
The process of Wen Xiaodao's rise is different from that of anyone else, and he knows this well. But it's no wonder that he has never considered himself a man since he was a child. In his opinion, all things feminine were extremely beautiful. Long skirts and headdresses all made his heart flutter. He felt that God must have played a joke on him when he was born.
He is a man, but this cannot stop him from liking men.
In the upper class society of the Sui Dynasty, many people were not fond of women and preferred men's style. There are many children from aristocratic families, and the handsome little book boy they keep with them is actually a tool for them to vent their desires. A slightly larger brothel will also raise many handsome young men, and the price is not lower than that of a red girl.
Although his becoming the second among the Luo Men Ten Heroes is related to the secret between him and Luo Yao, Wen Xiaodao never really felt that he was taking advantage of Luo Yao. In fact, many people in the army know that Wen Xiaodao always looks at Luo Yao in a very different way. It's like a pregnant woman looking at her beloved lover.
Precisely because of this, Wen Xiaodao resented others talking about himself and Luo Yao behind their backs. Once someone he knew told someone, he would pull out that person's tongue.
And this General Mo is someone Wen Xiaodao dare not target.
Seeing his eyes shrinking, General Mo seemed to have lost interest. Returning my gaze to Shanziying across the river, it seemed that there was something more attractive over there.
His eyes are different from Luo Yao's.
He appreciates it, but Luo Yao iscomplex that no one can understand.
The other side of the river
Duan Bianbao stood outside the camp, looking at the cavalry team coming from the opposite side and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother, who do you think is the fastest among our left midfielders?"
The tall and thick Duan Bianxiong replied without thinking: "It must be Wen Xiaodao, that sissy Of course, that guy still has some skills."Yes. I remember that he didn't lose much in a competition with Zhan Yao. In terms of killing people, he seemed to have killed more. When the He people mention Wen Xiaodao's name, they are afraid and hate him from the bottom of their hearts. "
Duan Bianbao rolled his eyes at him: "Idiot!"
"Why are you scolding me again!"
Duan Bianxiong stared at him and asked.
"Because you are wrong."
Duan Bianbao looked at the man riding a red horse in front of Shanzi Camp and murmured: "It took Wen Xiaodao seven years to climb to where he is today, and the guy who is walking over now may be able to climb up in less than a year." To be in the same position as you and me. If nothing happens, Zhan Yao will be leaning back in a few years"
¡°I-fuck!¡±
Duan Bianxiong said angrily: "Why!"
Duan Bianbao smiled: "I don't know what he is based on. It would be great if I knew I always feel that this person will be great in the future. You haven't noticed the look in his eyes. By chance, that kind of coldness and bigness The general is so similar."
On the river embankment
The man in black robe suddenly smiled: "General Fang is so brave, he will definitely become a great weapon in the future."
Luo Yao was silent for a while and said: "Every great achievement is half shared by heaven and man. How far he can reach ultimately depends on himself and luck."
The man in black robe smiled: "The general is helping him, isn't it because God is helping him?"
¡¡
¡¡
There were a total of 1,500 troops in the Shanzi camp, but Fang Jie left all the auxiliary soldiers on the south bank of the river. These auxiliary soldiers do not have war horses, and they all carry weapons that will only slow down the movement speed of the Shanzi camp. The heavy cavalry pursues the kind of heaviness that can crush everything, while the light cavalry pursues the lightness like the wind.
"General, what is our goal?"
Chen Banshan asked Fang for an explanation while walking.
Fang Jie seemed to have something on his mind. He was obviously stunned for a moment when Chen Bishan asked.
"Let's cross the river first."
His somewhat perfunctory answer made Chen Bishan's heart waver. He knew that Fang Jie was by no means a person without goals. If he really crossed the river without a goal, it could only explain what happened that forced Fang Jie to leave the south bank. He is a man who has been in the military for many years and is particularly sensitive to some things.
When Fang Jie was trapped across the river to investigate the enemy, he knelt outside Wen Xiaodao's tent and begged to no avail. Later he heard that the reason why Wen Xiaodao didn't save Fang Jie was because of jealousy Others might believe that Fang Jie was the second Wen Xiaodao, but Chen Bishan definitely didn't believe it. What Fang Jie has done and his personality and style are definitely not comparable to Wen Xiaodao.
But he believed that Wen Xiaodao would be jealous because he knew exactly what kind of person Wen Xiaodao was.
He suddenly thought, is General Fang¡¯s crossing of the river related to Wen Xiaodao? What if that bitch forced General Fang to lead his army to fight the rebels?
When he thought of this, Chen Bishan couldn't help but feel the anger rising in his heart.
"Let the scouts explore the situation near the rebel camp in the next two days."
Fang Jie¡¯s words pulled him back from his chaotic thoughts.
"Although I entered the rebel camp last time, I have already alerted the enemy. If the rebel general is reliable, I am afraid that important places such as the supply camp will change positions. Crossing the river is something I have always thought about, and I will be with the rebels. Fighting with real swords and guns is what a soldier should do, but not rashly. "
Chen Bishan responded quickly: "I will make arrangements as soon as we cross the river."
"Also, we will not enter the Hebei camp."
Fang Jie raised his head and glanced at the camp of the left avant-garde on the north bank, and shook his head: "There is no need to inform the people of the Hebei camp about anything when crossing the river this time. We will fight for ourselves. If it is not necessary, just treat it as the Hebei camp." Yes, of course, I will send someone to contact you if necessary.¡±
Indeed!
Chen Bishan was angry.
Sure enough, General Fang was squeezed out, otherwise why wouldn¡¯t he even enter the Hebei camp? Wen Xiaodao, this bastard, I will chop him up sooner or later!
Although Fang Jie did not enter the Hebei camp, he still had to say hello to the Duan brothers. The three of them chatted for a while on the river bank and then separated. Duan Bianxiong just looked at him with cold eyes, but Duan Bianbao was very warm. Fang Jie was not familiar with these two people, but he could tell that Duan Bianxiong was a straightforward guy, while Duan Bianbao seemed to have a knife hidden behind his bright smile.
Duan Bianxiong¡¯s eyes were cold, far less cold than Duan Bianbao¡¯s smile.
The Duan brothers did not try to persuade them to stay, so Fang Jie led the Shanzi camp past the main camp without entering, and continued northward by brushing against the side of the main camp.
"I investigated a while ago and found a place thirty miles to the north suitable for camping.?Not bad, you can attack and retreat. "
Fang Jie took out the map he drew, pointed to a place and said: "Funiu Mountain, there are roads in front of and behind the mountain. More than ten years ago, there was Lianyun Village on the mountain, which was also a famous mountain gate in the Sui Dynasty. Later, it was said that they violated the law and were destroyed by the order of Yuan Chongwu, the governor of Shandong Province. The rebels stationed a team of several hundred people there. They first sent scouts to investigate and then tried to seize the place. ¡±
"ah?"
Chen Bishan was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth in surprise: "General this is inappropriate. We only have 1,200 men and horses, and they are all cavalry. Attacking mountain strongholds is not what the cavalry is good at, and they are far away from Hebei University. Camp, once the rebels counterattack, we will not be able to hold it. It is more than thirty miles away from the Hebei camp, and the Duan brothers may not rush to rescue in time. If they are trapped the consequences will be unimaginable. "
Although Chen Bishan was thinking wildly in his mind, he immediately heard that Fang Jie's order was inappropriate. The first mistake is for cavalry to attack a stronghold. The second mistake is to go deep into the enemy's hinterland and defend the city alone. Although the terrain of the mountain stronghold is not steep, it is not conducive to the use of cavalry. This is the third problem If a large group of enemy troops counterattacks, heavy losses will be suffered if they try to break through. This is the fourth problem Everything is wrong in general.
He really couldn¡¯t imagine how Fang Jie could issue such a confusing military order.
Fang Jie smiled and said: "There are dozens of small villages like this around the rebel camp. Each village sends dozens to hundreds of troops. This Lianyun village is the closest to the Hebei camp, so naturally He started."
Chen Bishan knew that Fang Jie wanted the rebels to think that it was the Duan brothers who sent troops to do it, but it was still too risky to do so. It would be a pity that the Shanzi Battalion had finally trained itself into cavalry, and it would have been wasted in mountain warfare.
"General, I still feel that it is too risky"
"I know it well."
Fang Jie smiled, the clouds were calm and the wind was gentle.
