    ps: Five updates for three consecutive days are so awesome that I don¡¯t need to say anything more. I think I¡¯m a great guyI¡¯ve completed the updates I missed, which is great.  Chapter 988: The Swordsman Xiahou Baichuan has been observing the enemy's defenses by the Qinhe River for several days. At first, the defenses of the high-ranking army on the other side were just like this, quite satisfactory.  The next day I thought of something and went to see it again, and found that there was indeed some way to deploy the defense.  When I went back on the third day, I found that there was no flaw in Zheng Ziyu's defense.  On the fourth day, Fang Jie arrived at the river in person.  "This subordinate is guilty." Seeing Fang Jie coming, Xiahou Baichuan knelt down on one knee and saluted: "My lord has strictly ordered us to cross the river quickly, but my subordinates have not fought for several days, betraying my lord's trust." "Reason" Fang Jie walked to Fang Jie.  By the river, a knight riding school immediately moved a chair and placed it behind Fang Jie. Fang Jie threw off his cloak and sat down on the chair, waiting for Xiahou Baichuan's answer.  "There are no flaws."  Before entering the army, Fang Jie had already ordered the battle to cross the river to be fast. The rains will come down in this season. Once it rains heavily and the water rises, it will definitely be much more difficult to cross the river than it is now.  "No flaws?" Fang Jie repeated, and then came over to look at the other side with clairvoyance.  "In such a war, there is no trickery. The opponent's layout has no flaws, so they can only attack head-on. The enemy defends and we attack, and there is no warship support. Once the war starts, it will be tragic. My subordinates are worried that the casualties will be too high" "You  How long will it take?" Fang Jie asked.  "Two days."  Fang Jie stood up and casually threw his clairvoyance to his guards: "Hundreds of thousands of troops are watching behind you. One more day will consume as much food, grass and baggage as you have led the troops for many years. You know it all too well. Even from Liyin."  If the grain is transported from the warehouse, only seven or eight kilograms of grain will be left in the army. If the grain is transported from the southwest of the Yangtze River, only half of the ten kilograms of grain will be left. I know that as a pioneer general, you have a heavy burden, but since you can.  If you pick it up, you must walk steadily." "Here!" Xiahou Baichuan nodded seriously: "My subordinates will come up with a strategy to defeat the enemy within three days!" Fang Jie said nothing and turned around to leave.  After returning to the camp, Fang Jie put his cloak aside as he entered the tent, his expression a little ugly.  It happened that Dugu Wenxiu came in to ask him for instructions. When he saw Fang Jie's expression was different, he immediately understood that it must be the matter with the Pioneer Army.  "My Lord, what's the problem with General Xiahou?" Dugu Wenxiu asked.  "He was afraid of too many casualties, so he didn't dare to start a war." Fang Jie sighed: "But what Zheng Ziyu wants is that he is so hesitant to start a war! I just came back from the edge of the Qin River. The river is at least better than the previous ones.  The sky has been a few meters wider, and if nothing else, it is already raining upstream. If it is delayed for a few more days, Zheng Ziyu won't even have to set up defenses on the shore. "Dugu Wenxiu said: "Actually, Xiahou is also thinking about the Lord The Qin River has crossed the river.  One mile, at this distance, the power of the artillery can at most push back the enemies on the shore. However, the enemy's ballistae and catapults can easily intercept the team that is halfway across the river, and attack them halfway across the river. Zheng Ziyu has the advantage.   Unless Zheng Ziyu's ballistas and catapults can't be used when the vanguard army crosses the river, the casualties will not be too small. " "Can Zheng Ziyu's ballistas not be able to use them?" Fang Jie's eyes suddenly lit up: "Come on.  "People, go and call the drunkard." Xiang Qingniu walked into Fang Jie's tent with a piece of cooked meat in his mouth. He glanced at Fang Jie who was sitting behind the table and read a book and burned half of the meat in his hand.  Throwing the chicken over, Fang Jie reached out to catch it, and then gave Xiang Qingniu a fierce look.  "What are you doing? You asked another fat man to borrow all those Jianghu people from me. Are you trying to bring trouble to Zheng Ziyu on the other side? I heard that Zheng Ziyu is very resourceful, so I'm afraid he would have let us spend the night.  He sneak attack, if my hands are damaged too much, what can you give me back?" "I can't even stop your mouth with a chicken butt?" Fang Jie sat up straight and tore off a chicken wing: "Upstream?  The water has already risen. If we can't cross the river in a few days, it will be difficult to cross when the heavy rain comes. " "Do you want me to step on the other side?" Xiang Qingniu's hands are so greasy.  Rubbed on clothes??Don't care at all.  "If you could trample Zheng Ziyu's tens of thousands of troops to death by yourself, I would be happy. Gao Kaitai has been in Gyeonggi Province for several years. There are so many big shots in Chang'an City. Which one doesn't have a few masters? Is Wang Yiqu dead or Yang Jian?  Gao Kaitai was killed easily. How could he not have many decent cultivators around him? " "What are you afraid of? Just beat him," Xiang Qingniu said while picking his teeth.  "Actually, this is an unwritten rule. Matters on the battlefield should be resolved on the battlefield as much as possible. Since ancient times, great practitioners have seldom intervened in wars. Of course, it is not impossible. Luo Yao walked into Pangba alone at the beginning.  In the camp, almost all the generals in Pang Ba's army were slaughtered, and they didn't follow the rules at all. "You want to slaughter them too?" Xiang Qingniu said with a smile.  "I always feel that Gao Kaitai is just waiting for me to go." "Why?" Xiang Qingniu asked: "Are you overestimating your opponents? In this world now, there are really not many people who can threaten you.  Lao Niuzi can do it, but he can be a saint in peace and quiet in the west. Zhang Yiyang can do it, but he can pretend to be in seclusion in Wudang Mountain. I can't think of anyone else.  " He glanced at Fang Jie: "Unless there are a few Da Zizi in Gao Kaitai's army" Fang Jie frowned slightly, what Xiang Qingniu said may not be impossible.  Zheng Ziyu's formation was like a defensive one. The defending party used everything they could use and waited in the best formation.  The attacking side will have a headache, and no one can bear the casualties of soldiers.  At this time, practitioners are often needed to solve the problem.  "Zheng Ziyu couldn't have imagined that there were many Jianghu people in the Black Flag Army. Was he really not on guard?  "Come here!" Fang Jie immediately ordered: "Ask Chen Xiaoru to lead people to chase the wine, sex and wealth, and bring them all back!" From the tone of the knight's voice outside the door, he knew that Fang Jie was really anxious, so he quickly sent someone to tell him.  Meet Chen Xiaoru.  "Why, do you really think there are many people in Zheng Ziyu's army who are very comfortable?" Xiang Qingniu looked at Fang Jie with some disapproval: "The world of martial arts is big when it comes to big, and it's not that big when it comes to small. There are only a handful of famous masters in the world of martial arts.  Count, there are definitely more dead than alive now. If Gao Kaitai's army really had such a master who could threaten you, I guess he would have sent you here to assassinate you, instead of waiting" "Why did Gao Kaitai just dare to do that?  Bring a few personal guards and come to negotiate with our army?" Fang Jie suddenly asked.  Xiang Qingniu was startled: "You meanhe was surrounded by experts that day?" Fang Jie nodded: "I was negligent. I never thought that Gao Kaitai had such an expert around him from the beginning, so  You don't care about those guards." "Impossible." Xiang Qingniu shook his head: "Even if you don't care, as long as such a master stands in front of you, you can naturally feel the distance between them.  You were so close and you didn't notice anything. Either they have some special way to hide their cultivation, or they are not worth mentioning at all." Fang Jie thought about it carefully. There seems to be no such thing in his memory.  What sect is good at this kind of practice?  "I suddenly thought of something" Xiang Qingniu glanced at Fang Jie subconsciously, and his face turned a little ugly. ?¡­ ?¡­ ?¡­ ?Jiulesecai¡¯s body was a little unsteady. If Chen Xiaoru hadn¡¯t helped him up, he might have fallen down just now.  There were at least four wounds on his chest, each of them deep.  If his qinggong hadn't been good enough, he might have died long ago.  He was not dead, but of the more than a hundred Jianghu guests he took to the north of Qinhe, only four came back alive with him, and those four were also seriously injured.  If Chen Xiaoru hadn't led the people to respond in time, maybe none of them would have come back.  "My subordinate I am not doing well in my work. Please punish me, my lord." Jiulesecai struggled to bow down, but every movement on his body caused excruciating pain. Blood was still flowing down his clothes, and soon he was  The place where he stood was stained red.  Fang Jie immediately stood up and asked someone to help Jiuse Cai find a place to lie down. He tore open Jiuse Cai's clothes and saw at a glance that there were stab wounds on his chest.  Fang Jie personally cleaned the wound for Jiuluxicai, then applied medicine, and asked the military doctor to bring needles and thread to sew the wound.  "What should I punish you for?" Fang Jie shook his head while sewing the wound: "I thought of it too late.As for not being able to call you back in time, the fault is not yours but mine.  What's more, I really can't think of any reason to punish someone with wounds all over his chest.  " Jiusecai was slightly startled and said nothing more. "When my subordinates arrived, Jiusecai dragged him behind to block the pursuers, so the four of them came back alive" Chen Xiaoru said something beside him. " Fang Jie  He nodded and treated the wounds of his drunkenness and wealth seriously: "I arranged this matter carelessly. It was only after you set off that I suddenly realized that it was already too late when I sent someone to call you back.  I will keep all your injuries in my heart.  "The drunken man was suddenly a little scared. The atmosphere he was most afraid of appeared again. What he was most afraid of was not the bloody and cold atmosphere in the abandoned brick kiln, but the scene when he first entered the fourth prince's palace and Lao Liu squatted at the back door to eat.  That kind of warmth. He has experienced a cold feeling for most of his life, and that kind of warmth is too little, so he is afraid that once this feeling appears, it will disappear quickly.  A hundred knives, if you get four knives, I will kill Zheng Ziyu.  " Fang Jie took care of Jiulese Cai's wounds, stood up and washed his hands: "Chen Xiaoru, take someone to send Jiulese Cai back to recuperate, and find a few caring people to take care of him until he fully recovers. Don't ask women to come, this guy  unreliable.  "The drunken man couldn't help but laugh, hiding the warmth in the corners of his eyes. "Those swordsmen are very extraordinary.  " He said: "I am also an old martial artist and have seen many famous swordsmen.  But no one used knives like those people. Their use of knives was extremely simple and extremely terrifying.  The reason why my subordinates are able to come back alive is because they have encountered too many situations where they were almost dead and have developed a reaction. These four swordsmen can¡¯t even dodge" "I understand.  " Fang Jie patted Jiusecai on the shoulder: "Go back and recuperate, I will deal with those swordsmen.  " He looked at Xiang Qingniu, who nodded with a solemn expression.
