Chapter 73: There will be a mortal heart, and a scholar has no greed for life
The other generals and the three elders of Xuantian Sect are all very optimistic about this future successor of Daning's army.
His words are very similar to Liu Yunfei's style, neither humble nor arrogant, neither arrogant nor impetuous, neither reserved nor aggressive, fully revealing the courage that a general should have.
Liu Mingzong pointed to the sand table and continued with a wise look in his eyes, "Tongcheng is surrounded by mountains to the east and west, which is not conducive to the transportation of heavy siege equipment. If Jinbat wants to attack the city, he must attack the north gate head-on, and
In front of the north gate is a mountain valley flanked by two mountains. The road is rugged. As long as we take control of the two mountains, the enemy will not dare to act rashly, thus effectively containing the enemy. As long as we gain the advantage of time, we can win the hope of victory.
!”
"Well, what the Major General said makes sense. Jinbat is eager for a decisive battle. He must be unable to supply supplies. If our army takes the initiative to attack, it will play into his hands."
"The supply of an army of half a million is an astronomical figure. If you find the right opportunity to cut off his supply, even if he has an army of one million, it will be difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw!"
"The final general agrees with the major general's strategy."
"The general seconded the proposal..."
"The general seconded the proposal..."
In the camp, many generals unanimously agreed with Liu Mingzong's strategy, and even the three elders of Xuantian Sect admired him very much.
"This man is quick-thinking and has a decisive and decisive arrogance in his movements. He is truly a talented general. His future will be limitless!" Looking at the confident Liu Mingzong, his aura has already reached the level of martial arts.
Coupled with his general talents, Garden could already foresee this man's future and couldn't help but sigh.
"In that case, everyone will obey the order!" Liu Yunfei sat high on the commander's desk, with no extra expression on his serious face, and said as he glanced at the people in the audience.
Everyone stand up and obey the order!
Liu Yunfei sternly ordered, "From now on, Liu Mingzong will be responsible for all protection matters in Tongcheng. His troops and horses will be deployed by him, and all generals will assist him. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed first and then punished!"
"I will obey the general's orders!" the generals said after the order.
Liu Yunfei has always been training Liu Mingzong as his successor, and the latter is the most outstanding one in terms of cultivation and performance.
Even the generals with long experience who followed Liu Yunfei in the north and south were convinced. It can be said that Liu Mingzong is now in charge of such an important battle, which is expected by everyone.
Gaden walked over to Liu Mingzong and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Major General. If the Major General has any instructions, please feel free to do so. I, the three hundred disciples of Xuantian Sect, will obey your orders!"
"Elder Gaden said something serious, Mingzong is not worthy of it. Seniors are so virtuous and respected, how dare you show off in front of them." Liu Mingzong was a little flattered, but he admired the elders of Xuantian Sect from the bottom of his heart.
First, these three elders are all highly respected people. When Daning was so famous, they themselves were still unknown.
Between the two, whether it is fame or cultivation, he is still slightly inferior to these three people.
The Piaomiao Continent has always respected the strong. How dare a weak person order the strong? There are some exceptions, but they are just for profit!
"You don't have to be polite, Major General. We are here to assist under the order of the sect master. We should abide by military orders. If you have any errands, just ask!" Lian Ji's skinny cheeks became more wrinkled when he smiled, just like the wrinkled clothes.
"In this case, Mingzong will no longer refuse." Liu Mingzong changed his expression, raised his brows slantingly, and raised his eyebrows high. His upright face showed solemnity, and said, "There are not many strong martial arts masters in the army, but
, there are still one or two hundred people, but this number is not enough to guard the two mountains in front of the north gate. If Xuantian Sect can mobilize some disciples to help guard the other place, the two sides will become horns and look after each other. I think the enemy will
It is difficult for the army to break through our defenses!"
"That's very good. Then we will dispatch two hundred martial arts disciples to go with the army."
If you want to defend a hilltop in Nuo Da, you must have a large number of people. The lives of the sect disciples are at stake. The three elders discussed it for a while and finally decided to send two hundred people there.
This number is enough to intimidate many martial arts experts, and the disciples of the clan have a tacit cooperation with each other, so their power in battle is not easy to underestimate.
"Then I'll help you three elders," Liu Mingzong said with a bow.
"With the help of three elders, I think Jin Batt is going to have a headache this time!" Liu Yunfei walked over and said with a smile.
After several people gathered together to discuss some details, Garden clasped his fists and said, "Without further delay, let's make arrangements right now!"
After saying that, the three of them hurried back to Xiying to deploy manpower. As an alchemist, Qi Jin naturally could not put himself in danger. His task was to refine elixirs, so Lian Ji led the team this time, and Gaden
He is stationed in Xiying, ready to respond at any time.
After the three elders left, the generals at all levels performed their duties and geared up to prepare for the upcoming fierce battle.
It can also be said to be the most testing battle in all of their military careers. Everyone quietly left the camp with a solemn look on their faces!
A general must be calm and calm in order to deal with anything rationally. This is not a fight between ruffians and hooligans. If you win, you fight. If you can't win, you just run away.
This is a war between countries, involving the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and the lives and deaths of hundreds of millions of people behind them. There is no room for negligence!
Seeing the last figures of Liu Mingzong and Liu Mingshuo leaving, Liu Yunfei let out a breath, and his deep eyes filled with worry that he had never seen before.
"Brother, congratulations. This is the prelude to handing over the military power to you!" Liu Mingshuo smiled, holding his brother's shoulder and laughing.
"You guy, if the old man sees you, you will get slapped again!" Liu Mingzong glanced at the arm on his shoulder, lightly bumped the former's chest with his elbow, and said with a smile.
Liu Mingshuo laughed, patted the chest that was hit, and said nonchalantly, "I have thick skin and thick flesh. I have long been used to it. I still feel itchy after a few days of beating!"
He immediately put away the smile on his face and asked, "By the way, you have dispatched the military masters to garrison in the mountains. Do you have a suitable general to lead the team?"
Liu Mingzong smiled and said, "You don't need anyone else. I will lead the team myself?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Mingshuo said in shock, "The old man is asking you to coordinate all the military deployment and defense facilities in Tongcheng. Who will be responsible for these when you lead the team? No, you are too childish. I don't agree!"
"Second brother, the high mountains on both sides of the middle of the north city are Tongcheng's best defense. As long as they are defended, the enemy army will not be able to pass through the mountainous area smoothly. Once we lose these barriers, Tongcheng will not be able to withstand fifty
The impact of ten thousand armies!" Liu Mingzong stopped, patted Liu Mingshuo on the shoulder and said, "Furthermore, the generals have followed the old man in the north and south for many years, and have rich experience. Many matters can be carried out step by step without having to explain them. Tongcheng's
Of course you don’t have to worry about defense, not to mention there is an old man sitting in the middle, so there won’t be any trouble, so you don’t have to worry about it in vain!”
"No, it's still too dangerous for you to do this. Once the battle starts, you will bear the brunt. What if something happens to you?" Liu Mingshuo shook his head and said.
"Second brother, our lives are of course our lives, and the lives of our brothers are also lives. How can fighting not be dangerous?" Liu Mingzong said with an angry voice on his masculine face, "As the saying goes, a general will have a will to die, and a scholar will not be greedy for life.
I have thought that this battle is related to the survival of Daning, I have made up my mind and you don’t need to say any more."
"This stubborn temper is exactly the same as that of the old man. There's really nothing you can do about it!" Liu Mingshuo said helplessly.
"In that case, I will accompany you. With our two brothers' cultivation, even if there is any emergency, we can handle it calmly!" Seeing that he could no longer stop him, Liu Mingshuo suggested.
But this proposal was immediately rejected by Liu Mingzong, "No, you must stay in the city. This is a military order!"
Liu Mingshuo really couldn't defeat this stubborn brother, so he had to compromise and follow Liu Mingzong to the camp to select people.
Soon, two groups of people lined up neatly outside the north city gate. After Liu Mingzong's careful selection, two hundred strong martial arts masters were selected from the army. The expressions on each of them's faces that looked at death were daunting.
They had murderous aura accumulated from years of fighting on the battlefield. When they stood there, the hot weather was faintly overshadowed by the cold air emanating from their bodies.
On the other hand, the two hundred disciples of the Xuantian Sect are all full of energy. As the top young men carefully selected from all over the country, they have their own pride and strength.
Although they have never been on the battlefield, they long for the pleasure brought by the excitement of blood in battle, perhaps because of being a cultivator, or perhaps because of the nature of a man.
The white gauze robe is fluttering, and the exquisite long sword is firmly held in his hand, showing a heroic spirit.
Murong Ao stood next to Lian Ji, saying nothing, with a calm expression. Perhaps it was because of Liu Yunfei, but his eyes looked at Liu Mingzong with a bit of malice.
"Major General, it's getting late, let's go ahead." Lian Ji said to Liu Mingzong with his hands raised.
"Elder Lian Ji, please be more careful. When the time comes, we will keep in contact with each other. If there is anything, please send someone to tell us." Liu Mingzong held his sword and said.
"must!"
Lian Ji turned to the two elders and cupped his fists and said, "First elder, second elder, we are leaving now!"
Garden warned, "Well, be careful in everything."
"There are some elixirs here. You can take them with you in case you need them." Qi Jin took out a bottle of elixirs from his wide sleeve and handed it to Lian Ji.
Lian Ji was not polite, took the elixir bottle and said with a smile, "Thank you so much, Second Elder!"
After saying that, he led two hundred disciples towards a high mountain.
"I'll leave all matters concerning Tongcheng to you!" Liu Mingzong said to the people who came to see him holding his sword, and after speaking, he led his men to another high mountain.
