Chapter 1031: He Becomes Terrible The army marched on the official road, endlessly winding like a giant dragon. If you can look down from the sky, you will definitely be shocked by this magnificent scene. People actually don¡¯t have a specific concept of how many thousands of people there are. Only by actually seeing it can we appreciate the visual impact brought by the gathering of people. After passing Chunbo Pavilion City, it is actually not that far away from Chang'an City. Thousands of miles have been traveled, and the remaining few hundred miles seem longer. These few hundred miles are the last step of the Black Flag Army's long march. The old man who followed Fang Jie at the beginning went from the northwest to the grassland, from the grassland to Huangyang Road, then from Huangyang Road to Yongzhou to Nanyan, and then to Chang'an City. Such a zigzag route is the path to Fang Jie¡¯s rise. Excited, excited. This is the mood of all the Black Flag Army officers and soldiers. Everyone knows what it means to enter Chang'an City. Chang'an City represents an end point and a starting point. This was the case when Dazheng founded the country. He attacked from the local area to Chang'an and then sent troops from Chang'an to sweep all directions. The same is true in the Sui Dynasty. Fang Jie now seems to be walking the same path that successful people have walked. The carriage moved slowly. Fang Jie did not read a book to pass the time this time, but sat by the window in a daze. In fact, even he himself didn't know what he was thinking. His mind was a little empty, but he felt filled with various emotions, which made him a little confused. This is the second time to enter Chang'an. The first time, he walked through hardships with Da Quan and Mu Xiaoyao from the small town called Fangu in the northwest, and met Cui Zhongzhen and the fat man Xiang Qingniu on the way. At that time, Fang Jie entered Chang'an just to find a safe place, and then live a good life in peace, with wine and a warm bed. When he entered Chang'an City for the second time, Fang Jie's identity and status had changed. When he first entered the city, he felt that there was a world outside, and Chang'an City was the same world. In the world of Chang'an City, he faced people and things he had never faced before. He began to learn to deal with the interactions with those dignitaries, and began to receive more knowledge in the Martial Arts Academy. If Fan Gu gave Fang Jie a taste of home, then Chang'an City allowed Fang Jie to gradually learn how to get along with the world. Gao Kaitai¡¯s team has already left. Perhaps Gao Kaitai¡¯s mood was as complicated as Fang Jie¡¯s when they left. He had been so close to this big city called Chang'an that he had the illusion that he was very close to walking into the city, into the palace, into the main hall, and onto the dragon chair. He may still be thinking that leaving this time is preparing for his next comeback. In fact, the conditions unlocked by Fang are really perfect for Gao Kaitai. He can hide behind the Black Flag Army and watch the changes without directly fighting the Meng Yuan people. He can take the opportunity to accumulate strength and prepare for a comeback to dominate the world. At worst, he can choose to become a hero and eventually submit to the new emperor and become a feudal official. The most unfavorable ending is also the height that he cannot reach if he does not have troops. "There should be news coming soon, right?" Wu Yiyi, who was sitting opposite Fang Jie, looked at Fang Jie's face and asked in a low voice. Fang Jie was pulled out of his vague thoughts by Wu Yiyi's words. He turned back to look at Wu Yiyi: "If nothing unexpected happens, there will be news in three to five days. I have already dispatched Zhuge Wuyin and Lu Fenghou's troops there. It shouldn't be difficult after the matter is completed. I originally thought it was comforting. People's hearts are a little troubled, but this time they have found a suitable candidate." Wu Yiyi nodded, feeling a little uneasy. He knew that Fang Jie's great progress was definitely not just in his cultivation, but also in his decision-making on major matters. Fang Jie is no longer the young man who hid in the grass on the roadside outside Chang'an City and asked him how much it would cost to take a car into the city. ¡°People have to face choices, sometimes it¡¯s difficult, sometimes it¡¯s not.¡± Wu Daodao smiled and didn¡¯t feel the need to express anything. If there is any need to express emotion, it would only be because Fang Jie's current methods are so cold and decisive. "After entering the city, there should be many former big shots greeting you." He reminded Fang Jie: "Be careful with your words. After all, you still need these people when you first enter Chang'an City." "There won't be many." Fang Jie shook his head. . Wu Yiyi didn¡¯t understand. After a while, he suddenly realized and his expression changed involuntarily. He thought he had been shocked by Fang Jie's changes, but he did not expect that Fang Jie's changes were enough to make people fearful. ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ The team is not marching very fast. Most of them are infantry and have been fighting for several years. Now they are marching for a long distance and they are depressed. The soldiers seem a little depressed. A big wish was made to them when they came here a few years ago, that is, they would?For successful people to reach the pinnacle of life. Now, this great wish is shattered. There is enough food and grass, and the food shipped from the Black Flag Army is enough to feed the army for two months. After arriving at the place where they should be, the Black Flag Army will also provide subsequent supplies of food and grass. This seems to be the best result, but the psychological gap still makes people unable to adapt. "My great wish was once so inspiring." After lunch, the man who made this big wish for the soldiers stood outside the tent, looking at the dejected looks of the soldiers, feeling a little blocked. The soldiers were frustrated, why wasn't he frustrated? Gao Kaitai once felt that he was only one step away from success, but now he is going in the opposite direction and drifting away. "My lord, is there something on your mind?" Fan Zengli, Gao Kaitai's most valued advisor, walked up to him and asked. Gao Kaitai shook his head: "I just suddenly recalled the experience of the past few years and felt a little emotional. When I went to the west with Emperor Tianyou, I still With the ambition to defend the country, if Wang Yiqu hadn't persuaded me, I would have died in the northwest or fought the rebellion elsewhere. "Fan Zengli sighed. He said: "When we were in the northwest, I even persuaded the lord that Wang Yiqu was not someone to cooperate with. But thinking about it, if he had not cooperated with Wang Yiqu at that time, the lord might have really died in the northwest. You must know that when he followed Emperor Tianyou to the west None of the 100,000 troops who were conquered came back alive." Gao Kaitai was startled and glanced at Fan Zengli subconsciously. He and Wang Yiqu killed the last 100,000 troops around Emperor Tianyou. How could Fan Zengli, a cautious and meticulous person like him, forget this? He looked at Fan Zengli and found that Fan Zengli's eyes flickered a little. "Do you have something to say to me?" Gao Kaitai asked. Fan Zengli's shoulders seemed to tremble slightly, and then he smiled: "Maybe because he was a little tired along the way, he became a little confused." "Go back and rest more." Gao Kaitai smiled and said: "You are too weak for your body. , I have long asked you to practice some boxing and kicking, not to be able to fight the enemy, but to be stronger, but you always refused. " Fan Zengli's expression was a little strange, and his nose was actually a little red. "My lord In fact, if it weren't for your lord's support these past few years, I don't know where I would have been struggling. Now thinking about it, I have enjoyed a lot of blessings by my lord's side in the past few years, but I haven't done anything for my lord." "In the future. Just do more." Gao Kaitai smiled: "This time Fang Jie made the biggest concession to enter Chang'an. After we arrive at Hexi Road, we only need to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. The Black Flag Army has a navy and two. With an army of 150,000 on the Hexi Road, it will not be easy for the Meng Yuan people to cross the river. Let them recuperate and then fight for the world. " "Yes it may not be possible." Li murmured, then looked at Gao Kaitai: "But it's a little late." Gao Kaitai was startled: "What do you mean?!" After he finished asking, he suddenly found that twenty or thirty important generals under his command had gathered in the distance. , wearing battle armor, everyone¡¯s expressions were solemn. Moreover, these people had their hands on the handles of knives at their waists. Gao Kaitai's expression changed, and he suddenly understood something. He took several steps back and shouted, and his soldiers immediately gathered from around the tent. However, there was the sound of military armor in the distance, and at least thousands of soldiers surrounded his big tent. "Lord The town has allowed you to choose a place to rest, and it has also allowed us people to have a better future. We have not followed you for a year or two, and our respect for you is not false. If you agree, I will arrange it now I will escort you away wherever you want." Fan Zengli said with a hoarse voice: "To be honest, my lord, you have no way out now. In fact, Zhen Guogong's strategy of dividing his troops to resist the Mongolians on Hexi Road is completely useless. Just to deal with you, General Cui Zhongzhen's 100,000 horsemen are parked less than thirty miles ahead, and at least 40,000 Black Flag Army cavalry are following behind. " Gao Kaitai's body shook violently and he almost fell. He said: "Fan Zengli! You you! I treat you well, how dare you treat me like this!" Fan Zengli shook his head: "My lord, when we followed you, we really wanted to help you ascend to the throne of God and dominate the world. But now , you have lost this opportunity. Even if everyone still follows you wholeheartedly, can we win this battle? Cui Zhongzhen's 100,000 troops are waiting for work in the front, and the 40,000 elite cavalry are following us , In fact, it¡¯s only enough for fifteen days.¡± ¡°What are you talking about?¡± Gao ?Tai's eyes widened angrily: "Fan Zengli! You actually became Fang Jie's lackey to deceive me!" "A good bird chooses a tree to roost" One of the generals looked ashamed: "Master, we don't want this either. , But the reality is that we can no longer hesitate. Our brothers have been fighting for several years, and we don¡¯t want to fight again. If the brothers don¡¯t make a choice, and the Black Flag Army has hundreds of thousands of troops attacking from behind, how many of us brothers will be left? ? Even if the Black Flag Army doesn't fight, we will starve to death if we don't have food and grass!" "So you choose to let me die?" Gao Kaitai asked angrily. "Lord, I just said, if you are willing, we will send someone to escort you away." Fan Zengli clasped his fists and lowered his head: "Please do it, my lord!" Chang'an City Fengmingxuan Mu San walked slowly downstairs, his face expressionless. Somewhat unhappy: "Sometimes people are stupid. They know that some situations are irreversible, but they still feel that the chips in their hands are heavy enough. I just need an attitude from them, but they think I am begging them This is what common people often say, it¡¯s shameless, right?¡± These words floated upstairs, and the big shots all turned pale with anger. Mu San had put forward a condition to them before. After the Black Flag Army entered the city, these people must all withdraw from the court. Naturally, they would not agree. "But they don't know that they don't want to choose, but some people do." He walked downstairs and glanced at the dense armored soldiers standing outside the building. ¡°I tried to persuade him, but it didn¡¯t work.¡± Mu San shrugged his shoulders. "Then let me go up and persuade them." Standing downstairs waiting for Mu San was none other than the Iron Armored Army General Wei Mu. Just like Mu San said to himself just now, those people don't want to choose, but some people do. "Are you sure that the Zhenguo Guild will agree to my request?" Wei Mu asked. Mu San patted his chest: "Although I am an imperfect man, I am still a man, and I keep my word." Wei Mu nodded: "Okay, I will do the next thing." He pointed in front of him. This wooden building: "Tear down this building for me. No living thing is allowed to be left." With the sound of the horn, the armored soldiers swarmed up. Luo Weiran kept looking coldly without speaking, his brows slightly furrowed. He suddenly felt a little scared. The man named Fang Jie was no longer the young man he knew. The building was demolished and people died, but this reputation only fell on Wei Mumu and had nothing to do with Fang Jie.
