"WarG.o.ds are indeed warG.o.ds!"This was the sincere appraisal of Xiang Ling from General Wan Bing, the soldier who had just arrived at the camp of the Western Lion Army early in the morning!
Although Wan Bing admired Xiang Tian"s way of using troops, he was also very sure that the latter had the ability to lead troops into battle.
But in his heart, he had always felt that the principles of "South Orange and North Triangle" were interlinked when it came to war.Although Xiang Tian could win a hundred battles and dominate the land, he was still inexperienced in naval battles and could not help but overlook a few things.
Therefore, when Xiang Ling went south to suppress the two kingdoms, he was considered a teacher and a friend, as well as a friend.
After hastily taking care of matters within the army, he rushed to the camp of the Western Cold Army without stopping, preparing to personally report the situation at the South Sea border to the latter.
However, Marshal Wan did not expect that Xiang Tian, who had never stepped foot on the southern border, would actually know so much about the Southern Sea.Whether it be the military deployment of the South China Sea, the financial situation, or the culture of the people
Even the climate characteristics of the southern coast, the ebb and flow of the tides, as well as the time that the local fishermen had set out to sea, could be explained in such detail that the warm-hearted old marshal was not a little surprised.
However, when Wan Bing was convinced, the latter gave out orders in front of him. Each order seemed ordinary, and had the same intentions as the other generals.However, when the latter was in an orderly fashion and issued successive orders, Wan Bing would be surprised to find out.
The next order was closely connected to the previous one, such as Xiang Tian sending troops into the sea to sail along the specified route to keep watch. It just happened to make up for the previous order, allowing the cavalry to pursue and kill the bandits.
If the latter were to arrive in time, or if the thieves were lucky enough to escape, the patrolling soldiers would immediately receive a signal to come from the sea and block the bandits" escape route.
The next order was to establish another coastal signal tower, which could also provide a signal to the cavalry and the maritime patrol, so as to accurately attack the thieves and robbers.
These seemingly ordinary commands were intertwined. They were like the hands of a nation above Stage Nine of the Go. Every step was to look at the overall situation and connect back and forth.
It looked like an ordinary net, but in the end, it formed a net that covered the entire sky, completely enveloping the enemy!
It could be said that Wan Bing had thought of every single one of Xiang Tian"s orders, but he had never thought that such cooperation would result in twice the results with half the effort. It was truly wonderful!
This was like two painters using the same brush and ink paper. Wan Bing could only draw high mountains and flowing water, bamboo forest and pine cypress, while Xiang Ling could draw a map of the world, encompa.s.sing everything.When Wan Bing saw that Xiang Tian had opened his eyes and was deep in thought, he couldn"t help but clasp his hands together in praise, "Your highness really uses troops like G.o.ds. I"m extremely impressed!"
"Old Marshal Wan, you flatter me. Old Marshal, you"ve worked hard to come forward and advise w.a.n.g Nan. This king is rather sorry that I am too busy with military matters to welcome you."
"Haha, Your Royal Highness, what are you saying? I came here to do my best."
"I never thought that the prince, who is in the northwest, would have his heart set on the world, and is even more familiar with the situation on the southern border than an old man like me. This old man"s trip is truly superfluous!"Wan Bing laughed bitterly as he mocked himself.
A glint flashed in Xiang Tian"s eyes as he looked at Wan Bing playfully, "Old Marshal, those words of yours are not from the heart. It seems like you still want to test Ben w.a.n.g."
"Oh, what does Your Highness mean by this?" Wan Bing"s eyes lit up, but he purposefully put on a puzzled expression.
"Haha …" Xiang Lingtian laughed.
"When This King and the generals were dispatching troops, the old marshal"s gaze stopped at both Cloud Strait and Golden Sand Lake."
"Presumably, the old marshal has concerns but he does not speak now. He naturally wants to test This King and see if there are any secrets."
Xiang Lingtian had a smile on his face as he looked at Wan Bing, and when the latter heard his words, he immediately stroked his beard and laughed loudly, his laughter bold and resounding. The latter gave Xiang Tian a thumbs-up, praising him, "Prince, your foresight is truly divine, amazing!"
Xiang Tian laughed heartily upon hearing this!
Wan Bing and Xiang Tian had known each other for many years. Back then, Xiang Tian had been sent into the army by the late emperor, and the first general he had followed was this General Wan Bing.
In the past, the late emperor"s doted on his second son, so at the beginning, he didn"t think much of him. He felt that the latter had an aura of elegance that he loathed and was not suitable to be handsome.
Back then, Wan Bing had purposely made things difficult for Xiang Ling, wanting him to retreat in the face of difficulties. However, he had never expected Xiang Tian to be so tenacious at such a young age, actually clenching his teeth and persevering.
Later on, Wan Bing began to teach Xiang Tian how to lead troops into battle and guide the latter in his studies. It could be said that he was Xiang Tian"s mentor who had enlightened him on the military path.
Therefore, even though Xiang Tian was the war G.o.d of the Wind Cloud Kingdom, sitting side by side with the emperor on equal footing, he still held incomparable respect for this marshal!
Back then, Wan Bing had a habit of not saying a word every time Xiang Tian made a decision or a plan.It wasn"t until Xiang Tian gave a definite answer and felt that nothing could go wrong that he would point out the flaws in their plans and decisions!
This was a habit of the two of them when they were marching and fighting together.
It was unexpected that after being a commander for so many years, Xiang Tian had already become the G.o.d of war of the State of Feng Yun. This old marshal still liked to use this move, but the old marshal was still the old marshal, and Xiang Tian was not the Xiang Tian of the past!
Xiang Tian looked down at the map before him and extended his index finger and middle finger, accurately pointing at two locations on the map, the "Cloud Strait" and the "Golden Sand Pool"."The old marshal is worried that the countries of South Island and Rizhao will split their troops and pa.s.s through the Cloud Strait and Jinsha Lake, bypa.s.s the tropical forest near Yunjian Continent and sneak attack the grain camp I set up in Binzhou County?"
Hearing that Xiang Tian had actually already expected this, Wan Bing felt gratified, but at the same time, he felt even more puzzled as he asked with some curiosity.
"Your Highness, since you know that there is such a danger, why don"t you move the grain camp to the south or increase the number of troops? Is there not enough troops? "Xiang Tian smiled as he shook his head, "No."
"Oh, why is that? Could it be that His Highness intends to intentionally expose this flaw and lure the enemy over, then set them up as an ambush so that the enemy will suffer heavy losses? "
Xiang Tian shook his head once again, "If this is the case, then this is just to alert the snake and not to harm the root of the thief and the thief. That is not what I mean."
"This …" Wan Bing was confused.
Since they weren"t planning to ambush and kill the enemy, then why not expose their grain camp? It couldn"t be that they were offering it up to the bandits for a sneak attack, right?If it were an empty city strategy, then this move would be too far-fetched. This old marshal, who had spent his entire life reading military strategies and military strategies, was also a little confused as to what Xiang Ling was trying to do.
Xiang Tian, on the other hand, cupped his hands and smiled at Wan Bing, saying, "Old Marshal, this prince has a request to ask of you!"
Wan Bing was stunned, but he said subconsciously, "Your Royal Highness, please do not hesitate to tell me that you are suppressing the south island and the Dazzling Sun. I may not be able to help, but I will definitely help your Royal Highness."Xiang Tian nodded gratefully, "Old Marshal, I need your help to build a large granary five kilometers away from Binzhou County. Moreover, I must build it with the highest quality barracks!"
"Oh?" Wan Bing was confused, "Your Highness, what do you want?""I need a large amount of grain here, so I need a large granary. I can"t find anyone to build it at the moment, so I"ll have to trouble old marshal to help!"
Large granaries were usually used when the army went out to war. They would meet with a prolonged war, and the random transportation of grain and foodstuffs would easily cause accidents and losses. They would often be stacked in the granary and would be cared for by the army, and they would also provide food for a long distance or short distance.
However, when Xiang Tian had first arrived at the southern border, he had spread the word that he would suppress the south island within three months and achieve success in both countries.
As soon as this news was spread, it instantly spread throughout the three counties of the South Sea. Everyone praised and praised warG.o.d of war, Xiang Tian.However, Xiang Tian was currently requesting for a granary to be built, so he undoubtedly planned to fight for a long period of time.
Could it be because Xiang Tian had personally come to the southern border and investigated the situation, he felt that things were not as simple as he had imagined? Could it be because three months was too short and he had changed his mind at the last minute?Wan Bing also understood Nie Tian"s words, and nodded in agreement, patting his chest.
"Your Royal Highness, don"t worry. I"ll go back to the Barracks and personally supervise the operation. I"ll have them build a granary for you as soon as possible and at the highest standard!"Hearing this, Xiang Tian revealed a happy expression, "Old Marshal Wan, personally coming out, this is great. However, the speed at which it is being built doesn"t have to be too fast. We just need to follow the usual efficiency and build it!"
"Alright!" Old Marshal Wan saluted with his fists; he was swift and decisive as he got up to leave.
Xiang Tian called out to Wan Bing again, but he did not speak directly. Instead, he sent a voice transmission to Wan Bing and told him in secret.
Wan Bing immediately revealed a look of surprise, but Xiang Tian did not speak any further and once again closed his eyes in deep thought!
In the end, Old Marshal Wan-Bing walked out of the camp with doubts in his heart.
Even though he was filled with suspicion, he would definitely not doubt what Xiang Tian had said.Since Xiang Tian had asked him to do this, then there must be a reason. He should only work hard to do better!
However, Wan Bing had a feeling that it was not a coincidence that he had received the order.
It was as if Xiang Lingtian had antic.i.p.ated his arrival from the very beginning. This order seemed to have been specially prepared for him.
"Sigh, the youth has surpa.s.sed the youth. It seems that I have really aged!"
Wan Bing smiled bitterly as he took the reins of the horse handed over by the soldier and led a troop of armored cavalry straight towards Binzhou City!
As soon as Wan Bing"s warhorse charged out of the camp, Xiang Tian, who was in the tent, opened his eyes.
He looked at the piece of paper on the right side of the marshal"s table. It had the words" March "written on it. He stared at it for a moment.
Suddenly, with a flick of his finger, a strand of energy pierced through his fingertip and suddenly sliced this piece of paper diagonally, splitting it in half.
The handsome case beneath the xuan paper was completely unscathed, but the bottom half of the Xuan paper slid down the edge of the table, leaving only the top half of the Xuan paper!
The "three" in "March" was not damaged, but two of his legs had been cut off at the bottom of the "Moon". With a shake of his body, he transformed into a "sun"!
"Three days!"
