Chapter 769: The Sound of Drums and Horns Shows Its Sharp Edge (41)

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, two war horses stood side by side on a hillside outside Jicheng. Dozens of rangers were scattered around, looking around vigilantly.

Gao Yuan stared at the majestic Jicheng in the sunset, his eyes slightly narrowed. Tan Feng beside him was also looking at this big city that had stood for hundreds of years. Different from Gao Yuan's undivided attention, he looked at Jicheng for a while and then turned around. He turned around and looked at the upright and resolute face that he admired and disgusted at the same time.

"You want to go in?" he asked suddenly.

Gao Yuan hummed, turned to look at Tan Feng, and smiled, "Of course, when I left Jicheng, I was driven out like a dog. One day, I will leave this place in a dignified way. Go through the gate and walk all the way to the gate of Qinzheng Hall."

"As long as I'm here, you will never step foot into Jicheng." Tan Feng said coldly.

Gao Yuan flattened his mouth, "You are here now. I am not standing just one step away from the gate. Just wait. I will be back soon. Of course, at that time, it will no longer be like this. There are only 20,000 troops. When I come back, Jicheng will face hundreds of thousands of troops."

Tan Feng's body shook slightly, "Do you think Donghu is so easy to deal with? Maybe there will be changes in the Hetao that you can't think of soon."

Gao Yuan looked at Tan Feng for a while, then suddenly laughed loudly, "The changes you are talking about should be Kumamoto and the tens of thousands of Yan Army prisoners of war, right?"

"You know?" Tan Feng was stunned.

"What can't you know?" Gao Yuan said with a smile: "I guess you also know that Captain Zhou Yuan is no longer in Fenzhou, right?"

"Zhou Yuan?" Tan Feng was stunned, and his face suddenly changed. When he learned that Zhou Yuan was no longer in Fenzhou, because the Eastern Expeditionary Army was pressing down on the border, he didn't think much about the connection. , now I have to remind Gao Yuan. It dawned on him immediately, and his face turned pale for a moment.

"It has been almost a month since Lieutenant Zhou left Fenzhou. If my prediction is correct, he should be in Xiongben's tent at this time, having a drink and chatting with Xiongben. Tan Feng, these changes you are counting on will last forever. It won't come. On the contrary, there will be a storm in Donghu territory soon. My army in Hetao is ready to attack at any time. Maybe it won't be long before you hear the news that my Donghu Army is coming to Helin. Let me finish the tasks that Yan Guo has not completed. Of course, this may not be good news for you," Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"It may not be what you want!" Tan Feng gritted his teeth and said: "Even if you destroy Donghu, what will happen? Dayan still has such a huge country and millions of people, who will win. It is not yet known!"

Gao Yuan snorted coldly,

"But let's wait and see, without Langya. The Yan Kingdom in Yuyang is like a tiger without teeth and an eagle without wings. Even if it can still survive, how long can it survive? Tan Feng, let me tell you the truth. , Yan Guo is no longer an opponent in my heart. You are just a block on my way forward. As long as you are still in front of me, I will not hesitate to move him away. ”

"You..." Tan Feng looked at Gao Yuan in surprise, "So you and King Wulie of Qin actually have the same thoughts? It's really ridiculous. Even if you are strong now, it is only compared to the Yan State, not to mention the Qin State. It’s Zhao Guo, as long as I put all my thoughts into your heart, you are no match.”

"The bird knows the ambition of the swan, but how can you imagine my ambition to conquer the Eastern Army? Tan Feng, I advise you, the country of Yan is like the sunset that is about to set, and there is no way to save it. Even if you try your best, you can't stop the wheel of history. The general trend of the world will inevitably converge after a long period of time. This is the general trend. If you want to block it with one person's strength, it is like a mantis trying to block a cart. "

"You are so ambitious!" Tan Feng exclaimed.

"In my heart, the only one who can be my opponent now is King Qin Wulie of the Qin State. It's just that his Qin State is inherently deficient. Despite his current momentum, one day he will be like a tower built on the gravel. Like a building, it collapsed. In the end, it will be me and my Dongfeng Army who can stand at the top of the world. Tan Feng, surrender, you are also a rare talent in this era. "

"Don't even think about it. Even if there is a stubborn rock blocking your way forward, I will try my best to trip you up a few times." Tan Feng said bitterly.

Gao Yuan shook his head, "Since when did we become such irreconcilable opponents? Do you still remember the scene when we defeated the Zhao army from Yuyang and returned to the court? We also entered through the east gate."

Tan Feng's eyes flashed with confusion, "Since when? It should be from the time when Ning Zicheng and Zhou Yuan planned to plot against Ye Xiang and you. When you escaped from Jicheng and returned to western Liaoning, I knew that you One day, it will become the disaster of this big Yan. From then on, I began to plan how to reshuffle this game. Zhou Yu and I had the same idea. We worked hard to design everything. Everything went well, but I never expected that the whole country's campaign against Donghu would end in that way. If that battle was successful, Gao Yuan, you would never have the chance to stand with me again. It's not as good as God's plan. Miranda still plotted against us before she died. "

"I once thought we would become friends." Gao Yuan sighed.

"We were friends once!" Tan Feng's eyes regained clarity. "When I knew that Ning Zecheng and Zhou Yuan were plotting against you, I once thought about saving you, but I was trapped in the house by him. Seeing the fire in Jicheng raging, I thought you would not survive. Then For a moment, I really shed tears. I, Tan Feng, am aloof by nature, but fate has changed me. The only friend I looked up to has now become my life-and-death enemy, and the only woman I love now treats me like an enemy."

"You can live if you do evil by God, but you can't live if you do evil on your own." Gao Yuan said every word.

"It's a joke, people plan things, success depends on God, it's just the winner and the loser. Gao Yuan, I want to remind you, you haven't had the last laugh yet! In the future, we will still have competition. When you reach the Qinzheng Hall After you are on the throne of the king, come and ridicule me like this again!" Tan Feng burst out laughing, "It's still the same sentence, we still know who will win."

"Since you are so stubborn, let me wake you up. But then, you will no longer have the preferential treatment you have now. At that time, you will only appear in front of me as a prisoner." Gao Yuan said calmly.

"I'm really looking forward to it!" Tan Feng snorted, looking at Gao Yuan, his tone suddenly became softer, "Ning Xin, where is she, is she still living happily?"

"Ning Xin is now the deputy director of our Zhengdong Mansion Supervisory Yuan. She has important responsibilities and lives a very fulfilling and happy life." Gao Yuan nodded.

"Then I'm relieved, Gao Yuan, she likes you, and I hope you won't treat her too slowly. In this life, if the only person I still care about is her, she will never be willing to see me again. On the other hand, after listening to what I said, I think what she wants to see most is my head, and what she wants to hear most is the news of my death!" Tan Feng looked up to the sky and sighed, "God won't help me, no matter what!" He shook the horse's reins and ran straight down the mountain.

Gao Yuan stood still, watching Tan Feng galloping forward, running straight towards the east gate of Jicheng. The afterglow of the setting sun gradually set on the top of the mountain. Standing at Gao Yuan, he actually watched Tan Feng running all the way towards the boundless darkness. , and eventually disappeared.

On the second day after the signing of the peace treaty, two cavalry divisions of the Young Guards of the Eastern Conquest Army, which had been camped under Jicheng for nearly a month, suddenly broke out of camp and turned around and rushed towards Yuyang. Go, but the first and second divisions commanded by Yang Dasha and Guo Laowen joined forces and rushed towards Xintian at the border with Langya.

The great work is done, now it is time to reap the fruits. The special envoy from Jicheng has gone to Langya with the royal order from Jiling to inform Hu Yanchao that the Eastern Expeditionary Army will also let go of Xintian and send Hu Yanchao's troops out of Langya and back to Tianhe.

Gao Yuan personally led two cavalry divisions to Yuyang. The Zhao army under the command of Zhou Changshou was now confronting Kongde. After Gao Yuan reached an agreement with Jicheng, they would naturally capture Zhou Changshou's troops. When Gao Yuan's two men When the cavalry division arrived, Zhou Changshou's army was at its end. Gao Yuan personally rushed to Yuyang, not only to annihilate Zhou Changshou's department, but also as a bargaining chip for him. The more than 20,000 elite Zhao troops are also an incredible force for the Zhao State. Gao Yuan wants to get this bargaining chip to negotiate with Zhao Qi. The war in Daijun should be over.

The country of Yan is turbulent, but thousands of miles away in Hetao, under the calm, there are also undercurrents. The Third Division of the First Army of the Northern Group led by Chen Bin, after more than half a year of expansion and training, now has Nearly 8,000 people have used Tengger as their stronghold. For more than half a year, they have been garrisoned in the city and working in the fields. Now they have formed a fortress area with Tengger Fortress as the center. Basically, the people living here are soldiers, and there are also many brave people. The large number of refugees who came to Hetao also arrived here with the army. Nowadays, near Dayan City and Pioneer City, land is no longer provided to the people for free, but needs to be purchased with money. But like in Tengger, It's a first-line area, but as long as you are willing to come, you will be given one hundred acres of land for free. Under such a policy, many people are willing to come to Tengger. Mainly because of the successive great victories of the Eastern Expedition Army, it also gave these refugees who came to Hetao endless confidence. (To be continued)
