Chapter 641: The Vanguard Discusses the Pros and Cons of the City
Compared with many cities in the Central Plains, Pioneer City seems to exist for only one purpose, and that is not to deal with war. Every design and every construction is aimed at effectiveness in war. Such a city, Naturally, there is no comfort, but as a city built to deal with war, it is efficient and fast, and everything that may affect the effect of the war is eliminated to a minimum.
"This Pioneer City was built under the supervision of Xu Yuan. He is just a person with a little reputation among Gaoyuan's many generals. I never expected that he could have such real talent and knowledge." Ning Xin sighed and looked at Niu Ben next to her. Niu Teng, "On the other hand, the generals of our Dayan are really looking at the sky from a well. They talk about the art of war with great eloquence, but when it comes to practice, they are just words on paper."
Niu Ben smiled and said: "Miss, we have now joined Zhengdong Mansion. The more powerful the generals under Governor Gao are and the more mediocre Dayan's generals are, the happier we should be. In this way, our revenge will be smoother in the future. ”
Ning Xin smiled and said, "Yes, I should be happy, but after being a Yanren for so long, I will always have this shackles in my heart, consciously or unconsciously, and I still can't let go of this layer of shackles."
"Miss, I don't understand." Niu Teng, who had always been taciturn, looked at Xu Yuan, who was praised by the lady, and was selecting prisoners of war like an animal. The general named Luo Weiran followed him helplessly until Xu Yuan picked the prisoners. After finishing one group, he waved his hand and gathered the remaining people into another pile.
"What don't you understand?" Ning Xin glanced at him.
"Why did Miss have to get this vanguard?" Niu Teng hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Miss, I am not saying that I am discouraged. In this war between Zhengdong Mansion and Donghu, Governor Gao was really at a disadvantage, victory or defeat. Only Between the two, the young lady is putting herself in danger. Moreover, there is no need. Why did Mrs. Gao and Jiang Yizheng insist on asking the young lady to come to the front line because they suspected that we joined. Purpose?"
Niu Teng felt a little resentful, "You know, Miss just helped them defeat Tan Feng in Yuyang and win the crucial Anlu Iron Mine for them. These prisoners below are the spoils of that battle!"
Hearing Niu Teng's words, a blush flashed across Ning Xin's face. Ye Jing'er's purpose was very clear, but she couldn't explain it clearly to her subordinates. Even she felt a little embarrassed.
"Niu Teng, you are right. In this battle, Zhengdong Mansion not only does not have the upper hand, it can even be said to be full of crises, but only in this way can we show our value!" Ning Xin raised her head slightly, "With Dong Hu This battle can be said to be Gao Yuan's first step to truly conquer the world. If he wins this battle, Gao Yuan will be reborn. If he loses, the consequences will be obvious. We will only be in this battle. Only by investing your own strength in a life-and-death battle can you get rich rewards after victory. Niu Teng, if you think about it carefully, if you wait until Gao Yuan defeats Dong Hu, the situation has been decided.
Can we still have the opportunity to show our strength like this? "
"This is betting. Only when the other party's capital is still meager, help him invest a lot of gambling capital, and you will get more rewards in the end. The icing on the cake, how can it be better than giving help when it is timely!"
"The revenge I want now is not just as simple as taking Tan Feng's life. I want to destroy the entire Yan Kingdom, overthrow the Ji family's hundreds of years of rule over the Yan Kingdom, and let the dynasty on this land Change my name. Gao Yuan is my best choice. Of course, if I choose to join Zhao or Qin, I may be able to achieve my goal. However, I don’t want to be reviled. Think about Jing Rufeng’s current reputation. Well, it can be said that Gao Yuan is different. He is a general of Yan State and the hero who defeated Donghu. It is perfect for him to replace the tyrannical Yan Dynasty. The resistance among the people will not be so strong, as long as they are properly channeled, it will be a matter of course."
Niu Teng suddenly realized, "It's my subordinate who is stupid. Miss personally came here to help Gao Yuan succeed. Gao Yuan will definitely not be able to repay Miss enough afterwards. Miss needs more important rights and higher status to realize her repayment." "
"Revenge?!" Ning Xin's face showed bitterness. If I had the choice, I would really like to be a little woman living at home! Taking care of your husband and raising your children, playing the piano and cooking tea, that is a proud life, but all of that ceased to exist the moment Tan Feng stormed into the Ning Mansion with his troops. The Ning family was uprooted, and only herself, the woman, was left to hold up the situation. Fortunately, her father's lifelong business did not fall into Tan Feng's hands.
"Niu Teng, what happened to what I asked you to do now?" Looking back, Ning Xin looked at Niu Teng.
"Miss, I have mobilized all the manpower we can mobilize and are now concentrating on Donghu Jingfeng through various channels. But miss, this is all our manpower for action. Once the operation is launched, there will be no room to stop it. I'm afraid that very few of them will survive in the end. After this battle, no matter whether we win or lose, we will have almost no manpower for operations, and only the hidden spikes and networks will be left."
"I have said before that this is a key battle. Zhengdong Mansion's intelligence network in Donghu is almost blank. This is a crisis for the Zhengdong Army, but it is also an opportunity for us. Therefore, even if we invest all our efforts, It's worth it. It's time for them to show their value. Niu Teng, you are the commander-in-chief of this operation behind enemy lines. You must remember everything I tell you. "
"Don't worry, Miss. Even if Niu Teng dies in Donghu, he will fulfill Miss's instructions one by one." Niu Teng nodded.
"Try to come back alive as much as possible. There are fewer and fewer old people around me." Ning Xin sighed.
There was a muffled thunder-like sound in the distance. It was winter, so naturally there would be no lightning or thunder. This was the sound of a large-scale cavalry approaching. Such a shock came when there was no trace of the cavalry in sight. Obviously there were many cavalry in this group. With thousands of riders, the sound of shrill bugles sounded from the top of the city almost as soon as the ground shook.
The bugle is also a major feature of the Eastern Conquest Army. Except for the Eastern Expeditionary Army, almost all armies from all countries marched with drums beaten and paid gold to withdraw their troops. Only the Eastern Expeditionary Army was the only one. An iron trumpet is used, and different tunes represent different meanings. Get up and blow the trumpet. Blow the trumpet when gathering, and blow the trumpet when eating. The trumpet is played during the attack and the trumpet is played during the retreat. These different tunes often make those who first join the Eastern Army feel dizzy and confused.
When she arrived at Zhengdong Mansion, especially after joining the Supervisory Yuan, Ning Xin was full of emotions. They were all exposed to many new things that they had never thought of before. These trumpet sounds are the most common among them. As long as you listen to them several times a day, you will naturally become familiar with them. Although the tunes are all very weird, this is something that masters The rhythm of Ning Xin is clearer. And the code words used by the Overwatch Council to deliver secret messages made her even more unbelievable. Secret messages, she knew very well because she and her subordinates. Coded messages are also often used to convey messages, but the Eastern Expedition Army uses some numbers. Such convoluted numbers are extremely simple to write. The meaning is also the familiar meaning of one, two, four, and five, but it is more concise. Each word is composed of four such numbers. It is a secret letter. When outsiders open it, they will not understand it at all, but it is more complicated. Like a ghost painting, only the insiders can do it. Only by combining some numbers can it be translated into specific content, these things. Although Ning Xin and others already know about it, they have not yet adopted it among their subordinates. Because it takes a long time to cultivate such a person who is proficient in these secret words.
However, Ning Xin also knew that this encryption method was obviously more secure and effective than the one used by Yan Lingwei, Hubao Cavalry, and Black Ice Platform.
Withdrawing her distant thoughts, Ning Xin stared at the Pioneer City, which was boiling instantly after the warning siren. Groups of soldiers gathered towards the city from all directions in the city. Each group was led by an officer. Although the incident occurred Suddenly, but in an orderly manner, no panic could be seen on the faces of these soldiers. After arriving at the city, the soldiers immediately rushed to their posts. Apparently, their respective responsibilities had been divided in advance.
Compared with the orderliness inside the city, the outside of the city seemed a bit chaotic. Although the prisoners of war who were being selected did not understand the meaning of the trumpet sound, they could still feel the shock of the large-scale cavalry arriving. Looking again The soldiers on the city were in a hurry, and there were still some unclear reasons. They suddenly became panicked. The soldiers on guard around them waved their whips and whipped those guys who were running around in panic and headless. They whipped and shouted loudly. He shouted and cursed, commanding these people to retreat towards the city.
From the moment the siren started sounding, Ning Xin counted the time silently in her mind. In less than a quarter of an hour, the previously peaceful Pioneer City suddenly became heavily guarded. The city was lined with soldiers, armed with bows and crossbows. The crossbows on the platform and bed were all loaded with arrows, and rows of giant shields were pushed up to the top of the city. The soldiers crouched behind the big shields. At their feet, there was an arm-shaped crossbow with the arrows loaded on the handle. In the city, all non-combatants returned to their homes and closed their doors. The streets that had been bustling with people before suddenly became quiet.
What is efficient, this is it!
Xu Yuan hurriedly walked up the tower and bowed to Ning Xin: "Vice President Ning, there may be an enemy attack. Vice President, please go to the general's mansion to rest first. Leave this place to us."
Ning Xin pursed her lips and smiled, "Commander Xu, no need, I'll wait here."
"Wait?" Xu Yuan was a little confused, "Vice President Ning, the Donghu people are very powerful with bows and arrows, and the city is really unsafe."
Ning Xin smiled and shook her head, "I guess it's not the enemy who came, or the governor is back. I guess he wants to review your ability to adapt."
Xu Yuan blinked and looked at Ning Xin. At this moment, the sound of the trumpet sounded again from the top of the tower. This time, the alarm was lifted. At this moment, a piece of red clothes occupied everyone's sight. This piece of red stood out among the white snow, and together with the big flag flapping in the wind, everyone at the top of the city immediately understood who was coming.
"Sure enough, the Governor is back. This is a big joke!" Xu Yuan whispered, looking at Ning Xin with some admiration. He didn't even understand why Vice President Ning, who had just been in Pioneer City for a day, was looking at this. Be so clear.
"This is no joke!" Ning Xin shook her head and said: "This is a way to review the combat effectiveness of Pioneer City. I think the governor will be very satisfied. Commander Xu, you are going to be praised." (To be continued)
