Back Off, Let Me Come

  Chapter 720 Chapter 720: Royal Conquest (Part 2)【Two in One】

  Miaojiang River is one of the most important rivers in the northwest of the mainland.

  The overall flow direction is from west to east.

  Its branch veins are intricate, and the main vein as a whole looks like a giant dragon about to take off. The river is winding, flowing through Yanzhou and Qianzhou, like a natural moat separating the two places. The narrowest part of the Miaojiang River is only a dozen feet long, and the widest part is more than twenty li.

  The boundary between Yan and Gan is between the upper reaches and the middle reaches.

  Before the flood season, the water flow is gentle.

  As long as it is not a drought year, the Miaojiang River will rise rapidly when the flood season comes, irrigating and feeding the life on both sides of the river. But in contrast, the river will become turbulent. This season is exactly when the glaciers in the upper reaches of the Miaojiang River are gradually melting.

   "...According to the location where the Imperial Seal appeared last night, Zheng Qiao should be in Aoshan, Qianzhou at this time, which is this place."

  Chu Yao pointed to the upper part of the river on the map. This place is also a strategic location carefully selected by the coalition forces of the Dragon Slaying Bureau. The initial plan was to take advantage of Zheng Qiao's lack of reaction to attack this place, and then set up an offensive and defensive line after getting a firm foothold. Who would have thought that Zheng Qiao would go on a personal conquest as soon as he came up, which completely disrupted the plans of the coalition forces and brought pressure to the coalition forces.

  What pressure?

  As the offensive side, the coalition forces have great risks in crossing the river. Zheng Qiao can even take advantage of the time when the army is not stable across the river—for example, some troops have already landed and the other part is still crossing the river. Attacking at this time is the so-called "half-crossing attack".

  If it’s just these things, that’s all.

The most troublesome thing is that Zheng Qiao has the national seal in his hand, and Qianzhou is still within his borders. He is now personally marching, which can even affect the water potential of the Miao River to a certain extent, such as causing fog on the river, blowing strong winds, and even making the already The turbulent Miaojiang River is even more difficult for boats. In this case, it is really not suitable to head-on. So Chu Yao slid his finger and followed the map to another location.

He made a suggestion: "My lord, you can recommend yourself to the leader of the Huang League, let the main force of the alliance army attract the main force of Zheng Qiao, and our troops will come here along the Miaojiang River, attack the city and land on the shore, and march around the flank of Oshan. Then we will play by ear, and I want to come to the leader of the Huang League. promise."

   On the surface, they went deep into the enemy's rear as a surprise soldier.

   In fact, it is out of the sight of the Allied forces to see the situation and take fish.

  If you stay here all the time, facing Zheng Qiao's main force, it's not right to go out, or not to go out, so how can you stand on the wall and watch the allies play their cards?

  Shen Tang frowned: "Huang Lie is unlikely to agree to 'order' our troops all the way, and there is a high probability that he will find someone who is not pleasing to the eye to follow. I don't know what the leader of Huang Lie is planning..."

  Ning Yan also thought of a more serious detail.

   "I'm afraid it won't work here."

  Chu Yao asked Ning Yan with his eyes.

She said solemnly: "Xing Ning told me before that Zheng Qiao has never given up on the search for the national seal, and once doubted the lord, but he gave up for various reasons. He had such a big battle last night, the lord's side Impossible not to respond."

  Shen Tang nodded: "There is indeed a change in the national seal."

  Zheng Qiao's Guoxi is provocative, and her Guoxi is very irritable. Can you get used to him? He wanted to roar back several times, but was forcibly suppressed by Shen Tang, otherwise, last night, he would have seen the Oolong and Jinlong confronting each other across the river.

What Ning Yan is worried about is this: "Last night, Zheng Qiao had probably confirmed the identity of the lord. If the lord leaves from the main force and goes ashore by detour, once the maximum sensing range of the two national seals is exceeded, Zheng Qiao will be able to detect the lord's identity. movement."

  Zheng Qiao may not know why Shen Tang went there, but he must know that Shen Tang is uneasy and kind, and it is impossible not to defend himself.

  Qianzhou has a vast territory, but there are only a few valuable strategic locations.

  By then—

  If your side meets Zheng Qiao's main force, it will be over.

  Shen Tang nodded: "The sheep go into the tiger's mouth."

  Chu Yao said in shame: "Yao didn't think carefully about this matter."

Shen Tang waved his hands indifferently and said, "Who can really be considered exhaustive? If so, what kind of meeting are we still having here? Aren't we all working together to find out what's missing? No obscure plan is feasible, and Tunan's worries are also there. reason."

  Shen Tang supported his chin with one hand, and pointed the table with his other hand, rattling, rattling, rhythmically. She looked around the people in the camp, and a thought came to her: "If you combine the two, it will confuse Zheng Qiao, and he probably won't be able to find out."

   "Combination?"

Shen Tang showed a confident and sly smile, hehe said: "Since Zheng Qiao can sense me through the national seal, it is enough to ensure that the national seal is always within his sensing area. He doesn't know 'Shen Tang', so he just Recognize the national seal."

When she said this, the staff members who were familiar with Shen Tang's temper all showed distressed expressions, and Shen Tang, who was eager to wait for the praise, suddenly collapsed: "No, what are your expressions? I think my proposal is very good Ah, it is very deceptive, maybe it can firmly attract Zheng Qiao's main force..."

  Jiang Sheng probed cautiously.

   "My lord wants to surprise you?"

  He asked this question rather tactfully.

   Actually asked Shen Tang if he planned to take a small group of surprise soldiers to act alone, stuck in the sensing range of Guoxi.

  Shen Tang asked back: "Otherwise? Soldiers are more valuable than crowds! We want to use tactical ingenuity to win. What's the use of having more people?"

  Jiang Sheng and others resolutely expressed their opposition: "No!"

   This is too risky.

  This is called "the sheep enters the tiger's mouth", okay?

  However, Gu Chi was not included among the counselors who expressed opposition. He even smiled inappropriately, which drew several pairs of white eyes, including Bai Su's death gaze.

  His smile froze, and he whispered: "I'm afraid you have misunderstood the meaning of the Lord, and the Lord also misunderstood your plan."

  The brains of the two parties are not the same at all.

   Can actually communicate back and forth.

Gu Chi bit the bullet and acted as "the roundworm in the lord's stomach" for a while, and said: "The idea of ​​the lord is to entrust the national seal to one of us, to confuse Zheng Qiao's judgment, and to lead the troops ashore and go around to the enemy. Soldiers on the flanks, to contain them."

  Shen Tang was confused: "Don't you understand that?"

  Everyone: "..."

  As the lord of the country, Shen Tang can hand over the national seal to a second person in two ways while she is still alive.

  One is [Zen], the old and the new alternate, the old ruler will lose control of the national seal at the Zen ceremony; the second is [Tuogu], appointing one or more courtiers as the temporary holder of the national seal. Shen Tang now has no heirs, nor a recognized heir, so she has no one to rely on, but she can get stuck in a bug and designate herself as the target of [Trust Gu].

  The national seal in this state can be taken back by her at any time. Even if an outsider kills the courtier, he can't take the national seal away, unless she is also killed. Shen Tang took it for granted: "Anyway, there's no clear text saying that you can't do this. In other words, as long as there are no clear regulations, it's possible to operate, don't you think so?"

  Everyone: "..."

  How could they, who are well-behaved, think that they can still operate in this way, asking the monarch who is in charge of the orphan to designate himself as the target of the orphan... Which monarch who is idle will do this?

  Shen Tang said seriously: "We can give it a try."

  She bet that Zheng Qiao would never have thought of such an operation!

  This is her only brain.

  Everyone: "..."

  Xing, Xingba...

   So here comes the problem again—

  Who will be the unlucky ghost left behind?

  Being left behind is certainly a sign of being trusted by the lord, but it also means dealing with the coalition forces of the Dragon Tuning Bureau, which is exhausting and tiring. My lord has been getting angry with them for a while, and they want to stay, I don't know how bad it is.

  Shen Tang's eyes wandered among them one by one.

  People who were scanned swallowed nervously.

  Shen Tang couldn't decide either.

   It's not that she doesn't have suitable candidates, but that her choice will lead to an uneven bowl of water. As a master of Duan Shui, how could he make such a mistake? So she decided: "Let's draw lots."

  The only thing left is to write the words "fair and just" on his face.

  Kang Shi's face was ashen. All of you here are good people, who is the most suitable candidate in Shen Tang's mind?

  Yes, Shen Tang's most desirable candidate is him.

  The so-called lottery is just a fig leaf.

   With his luck, he must win the lottery.

   So, it's like calling names.

  Shen Tang used the pen holder as a lottery holder, and everyone drew lots.

  Even though Kang Shi was the last one to draw lots, only his lot was marked with [Tuo Gu] in red, while the others' wooden lots were all blank. There is really no suspense about this result...

  Kang Shi: “…”

  Shen Tang held his hand in both hands, and solemnly asked: "Ji Shou, I will entrust you with this important task."

  Kang Shi: “…”

  Under the watchful eyes of his colleagues, he could only swallow the bitter fruit, and tried to force a smile: "Time will never fail the trust of the lord!"

  Shen Tang's face was full of relief when he heard the words.

   He said three good things in a row.

  Although the general direction has been determined, there are still many problems in the actual implementation, ranging from transporting grain and crossing the river to marching and camping. Pre-conceive all kinds of unexpected accidents, and then make hypothetical responses to these situations...

   It can be said that everything is in detail.

   This meeting was stunned for a long time because of what you said and what I said.

   After two hours, the meeting came to an end.

  Shen Tang rubbed his ears that were buzzing with auditory hallucinations, and drank half a glass of ice water to wake himself up, because there was still a "tough battle" ahead.

   This meeting was all about being able to cross the river independently. If Huang Lie was in the way, all assumptions would be useless. Thinking of Huang Lie, Shen Tang was also the boss. Even after she joined, Huang Lieming's attitude on the face could be described as "indulging", but Shen Tang never had the slightest affection for him.

   The reason is that the first battle in Luxia County made her impression of this person below the negative number—Huang Lie was born in the bottom of the market, but how many innocent bones are under his feet?

   No one can tell.

  Even if outsiders forget Huang Lie's stains because of his current flowers blooming brocade and burning oil, Shen Tang remembers.

   Unknowingly, I wandered to the temporary school grounds.

  The tinkling of weapons in intensive clashes attracted her attention.

  On the school field, the two confronted each other.

  One holds a hammer and the other holds a spear.

   Unfortunately, Shen Tang still has impressions of both of them.

  Both of them rode ordinary war horses on their crotches, and they never wore martial armor. It is estimated that their martial qi was banned in advance. The two of them rode their war horses, their eyes met for a moment, and they galloped towards each other. All murderous intentions are hidden in the clatter of horseshoes.

  Ding Ding Ding—

   Two war horses staggered and weapons clashed.

  Yang Ying took a dexterous route with a gun, but at the same time, he did not lose the momentum of indomitable progress and no retreat. Lu Ji, who holds a heavy hammer, is not so flexible in comparison, but he has the pride to break through all methods.

"good!"

   Facing the oncoming heavy hammer, Yang Ying instantly leaned back, then bent her body to the side of the horse, controlled the rope with one hand, united her waist and horse, and completely hid her body by the side of the horse. At the same time, he drove the horse to gallop and accelerate, and the spear in his hand suddenly came out.

  Such a handsome and neat "hiding in the stirrups" is really impossible without any skills, and it aroused bursts of applause.

  Shen Tang said: "Is this considered 'avoiding the hammer and hiding the stirrup'?"

  Yang Ying focused on not being disturbed by the outside world.

   Silver light flashed, aggressive.

  Forcing Lu Ji to withdraw his hammer and return to defense, the two distanced themselves again.

  Shen Tang couldn't help but look at the loudest spectator, Yun Ce, the chief rider under Huang Lie's tent. Also as a player who is good at using guns, Yang Ying's performance aroused his rare competitive spirit. A pair of eyes stared intently at the two people on the field, their pupils were bright.

  The arc trajectory formed by the heavy hammer and the spear clashed and entangled in the air, and when they broke through the air, there seemed to be thunder roaring in a low voice.

  Although Yang Ying's training time was shorter than Lu Ji's, the two agreed in advance to ban hands, and the outcome was determined only by the kung fu of hands and feet. Switching between defense and offense, the horses under the crotch also changed positions, and the sound of horseshoes and neighing continued.

"watch out!"

  Yang Ying shouted loudly.

  The long spear in his hand stabs out vigorously, the body of the gun circles an arc, like a spirit snake clinging to a heavy hammer, the target is Lu Ji's face. Naturally, Lu Ji didn't give in. With his waist and shoulders united, the huge force was transported to his arms, and he hit the barrel of the spear with a heavy hammer.

   This blow did not determine the outcome.

  As the moves of the two changed faster and faster, their figures also became blurred. In the end, it was difficult for ordinary people's naked eyes to capture the moves clearly, and the flying sparks became more and more dense, which made people think of the word fire tree and silver flower. It wasn't until the physical strength of the two began to decline that the frequency dropped, but they were both stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat, they all gritted their teeth and refused to give in.

   Until the last time—

  The hammer and the spear clashed again.

  Yang Ying was so shocked that his mouth was numb, and he dropped his spear.

  Lu Ji finally showed a triumphant smile on his blushing face dripping with hot sweat: "Shengmei, I won this time!"

  Yang Ying rubbed her wrist.

   "You win, you win, and you're too heavy-handed."

   I don’t know how Lu Ji cultivated, his strength is astonishing, Yang Ying and her did not have a chance to win a few times, but in the end they lost due to lack of physical strength or strength. It can be seen from this that she is still too weak, and the shortcomings must be made up for quickly.

  Lu Ji put away the heavy hammer and jumped off the horse.

  She patted the horse's neck: "Thank you."

  The two of them couldn't tell the difference, and the war horse couldn't bear it first.

   As he said that, Lu Ji saw Shen Tang with his eyes, his heart was shocked, and he stepped forward to salute under the excitement: "Lu Ji has seen the lord!"

  Yang Ying also stepped forward to salute.

   (_)

   Today is April Fool's Day, I originally wanted to write a side story, alas, I shouldn't have thought so much about handicap. I also dyed my hair. I originally wanted it to be dark purple, but Mr. Tony dyed it a dark wine red. Hey, the top of my head is brighter, and I feel like I'm wearing a 100,000-year-old soul ring...

   I saw a baby asking Zheng Qiao what to write in the backstage yesterday... Ah, didn’t I write it?

   PS: Hiding in the stirrups is really cool, with great waist and arm strength (p≧w≦q)

   PPS: My good friend Erqian’s new book exploded with ten chapters on the first day it was released, and it was another brutal blow from the opponent.

   "The Little Cook of the Imperial College" - I don't want to study, I just want to cook!

   PPPS: There are still 47 quotas for the monthly pass event in the Qidian book review area. If you have a guaranteed monthly pass, hurry up and get it. Mushrooms are good to open another one. Don’t waste the operating fund.
