Under the leadership of Jin Feng, the army marched in groups of three to the ring road outside the village.
"Triumph! Triumph! Triumph!"
The people around them raised their fists and shouted to see them off.
Jin Feng raised his right hand and returned the salute with a military salute. Zuo Feifei led the female workers, and Qing Mulan and Chen Fengzhi led the soldiers from the Iron Tiger Camp, also saluting together.
When passing by the square array of the textile factory, Jin Feng took a deep look at Tang Dongdong and nodded slightly to her.
Tang Dongdong pursed her lips, her eyes full of complexity.
An innocent girl has lived in Jin Feng's house for almost two years. Tang Dongdong has long regarded herself as Jin Feng's. When he couldn't sleep at night, Tang Dongdong also thought about when she and Jin Feng would get together and how.
come together in this way.
She thought about thousands of possibilities, but she never thought of a marriage.
Moreover, Jin Feng was about to go on an expedition to Xizhou just after the marriage was granted.
It would be a lie to say that Tang Dongdong was not worried, but she was still a girl with a thin skin after all. In front of so many people, she was really embarrassed to go up and talk to Jin Feng, so she could only lower her head with a blushing face.
When Jin Feng rode over, Tang Dongdong felt a little regretful, but Jin Feng had already gone far.
This time the team totaled about 4,000 people and was divided into two parts.
Jin Feng led the Tiehu Camp and the female workers' musketeers, totaling about a thousand people, and took the lead on horseback.
The remaining three thousand people, led by the deputy director of Tiegunshan, rushed to Xizhou on foot.
Because there have been frequent military reinforcements from Sichuan and Shu recently to Xizhou, Tie Shixin hired many civilians and set up many supply points on the official road from Sichuan and Shu to Xizhou. Jin Feng and the others did not need to carry too much food, grass and supplies, so they saved money.
A lot of effort and effort.
When the sun completely jumped out of the valley, Jin Feng and the others also rushed to the suspension bridge in Heifeng Ridge. Bayi Chinese website
Looking back at the direction of Xihewan, Jin Feng kicked the horse's belly and rode onto the suspension bridge.
As the village's economic strength grew stronger and its smelting technology became higher and higher, a new suspension bridge was built next to the old suspension bridge.
The new suspension bridge is wider and more stable. At least Jin Feng didn't feel any shaking when riding a horse on it.
After crossing the suspension bridge, we entered the official road, and the scouts dispersed to explore the road ahead.
The cavalry and infantry also gradually distanced themselves.
Because he was worried about the battle ahead, Jin Feng ran for half the morning. He noticed that the horses were a little tired, so he found a sheltered valley to rest, burn incense, feed the horses water, and let the soldiers solve their personal problems.
Half an hour later, the team set off again, braving the cold wind and continuing to march northwest.
Zhang Liang sent monkeys to inquire about the news about the Dangxiang people. Naturally, the Dangxiang people would not be idle and had already sent people to keep an eye on Xihewan.
The day Jin Feng returned from Yuguan City, Li Lingrui received the news.
Although Li Lingrui had never dealt with Jin Feng, Dangxiang had suffered heavy losses at Jin Feng's hands several times in succession. Li Lingrui had long noticed Jin Feng.
When he learned that Jin Feng had returned from Yuguan City, Li Lingrui felt a little unsure.
There was no way, since Jin Feng joined the army, he had created too many myths about defeating more with less, and Li Lingrui had to worry.
In fact, many party generals were as worried as Li Lingrui, and some staff even privately suggested that Li Lingrui mobilize his troops immediately to defeat Xizhou in one go before Jin Feng arrived.
Of course, there are also some party generals who believe that their side has an absolute advantage in numbers and terrain, and will not lose this battle no matter what. They suggested that Li Lingrui continue to exert pressure, force Jin Feng to come over, and then kill Jin Feng together.
Li Lingrui thought about it all night, and finally decided to listen to the latter's opinion and continue to put pressure on Jin Feng to go to Xizhou.
Because he had carefully analyzed all the wars Jin Feng participated in, and came to the conclusion that the reason why Jin Feng was able to win with fewer troops mainly relied on terrain and weapon advantages.
Now that the terrain advantage is in our own hands, the airship and hot air balloons are restrained by our side. We also have heavy crossbow catapults, and there are more of them than Jin Feng...
No matter how he thought about it, Li Lingrui felt that Jin Feng had no chance of winning.
In fact, even if Jin Feng has some chance of winning, Li Lingrui plans to fight hard.
As soon as Jin Feng left the village, the Dangxiang secret agent a few miles away spread the news through carrier pigeons.
That afternoon, Li Lingrui, who was far away from Xizhou, received the news.
Knowing that Jin Feng was really coming, Li Lingrui was so excited that he almost turned red!
Compared with the victory of this war, Li Lingrui cared more about Jin Feng.
Because Jin Feng's growth rate is so fast that it scares Li Lingrui!
So he decided that as long as Jin Feng dared to come to Xizhou, no matter what the cost, he would kill Jin Feng and completely eliminate this serious trouble for the party.
"Send an order to Sichuan and Sichuan to send someone to keep an eye on Jin Feng. I want to know his every move!"
Li Lingrui called the person in charge of intelligence and conveyed the order.
"Your Majesty, we don't have many secret agents in Sichuan and Sichuan, and most of them are ordinary people. The scouts around Jin Feng are also very powerful. If we keep an eye on them too closely, I'm afraid they will be discovered."
The person in charge of intelligence looked embarrassed.
When Jin Feng watched movies in his previous life, the spies in the spy movies were more handsome than the last, just like models. Only after he came to Dakang did he realize that such spies were living targets, and they might be killed before they even completed their lurking.
Caught it out.
In fact, most of the truly qualified spies are ordinary people who are thrown into the crowd and no one cares about them. This makes it easier to lurk and not be discovered.
Many spies don't even know they are spies when they are young. When they are eight or nine years old, they are brainwashed and trained by others.
The training here is not to train physical skills, but to train observation and latent abilities.
Therefore, the vast majority of spies and secret agents have very average skills. Once discovered by scouts, they basically have no ability to resist.
"I don't care about this," Li Lingrui stared at the person in charge of intelligence and said word by word: "I say it again, I want to know Jin Feng's every move!"
The person in charge of intelligence knew that Li Lingrui was serious about it, so he didn't dare to say anything anymore, so he agreed, bowed and left.
That night, Dangxiang's secret agents as far away as Sichuan and Shu received the news and rushed to the official road that Jin Feng must pass through.
The abilities of spies vary. On the morning of the third day after Jin Feng set out from Xihewan, an unlucky spy was caught by the scouts because he was too close to Jin Feng's camp.
Not only was this guy weak in ability, he was also weak in willpower. He was kicked a few times and frightened a few times by the scouts.
When the scout team leader learned that the enemy's secret agent had targeted him, he immediately knew that the matter was beyond his control, and immediately went to Jin Feng to report the situation.
"Li Lingrui said he would keep an eye on my every move?"
After hearing the report, Jin Feng couldn't help but laugh: "It seems that he really values me!"
"Sir, can you still laugh?"
Chen Fengzhi was so anxious that he stamped his feet: "We are still in the territory of Sichuan and Sichuan. The enemy can't do anything to us. When we are near Xizhou, if Li Lingrui sends someone to raid, you will be in danger!"
