In Wei Zheng's opinion, Ming Xiaotian was too conceited, and the current Feng Army was already different from the past. Compared to when they were fighting, not even the slightest bit of carelessness could exist, making Ming Xiaotian to be at a disadvantage while commanding the troops. But since Ming Xiaotian had already said all that, Wei Zheng could not say anything more. He cupped his hands towards Ming Xiaotian and said: "Duke Ming, take care of yourself, focus on the overall situation and the lives of our soldiers!"
hated hearing Wei Zheng's lecturing tone of voice. In the past, he was the commander, so he could only endure and endure. Now that Wei Zheng had been removed from his position, and Ming Xiaotian had become the general, how could he be willing to listen to Wei Zheng's nagging? This time, Ming Xiaotian didn't even bother to reply and carried him on his back. He sat down behind the handsome table and casually sat down, turning his head to the side, not even looking at Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng received Yan Chu's order to return to Peace City, and the news quickly spread to his Feng Army. Hearing that, Tang Yin was overjoyed, the cunning Wei Zheng had finally been transferred away, and lead the troops? This is ridiculous. Back then, when the Sanshui Army ambushed the Tong Gate, they had sent Ming Xiaotian to attack, but in the end, he had only attacked forcefully and did not even use any tricks. In Tang Yin's opinion, to have him lead the four hundred thousand soldiers of the Ning army, was basically asking the heavens to help him achieve his great achievements.
Tang Yin's excitement could be heard clearly, all the generals were happy as well. Liang Qi laughed: "Ming Xiaotian relied on the background of an influential family to rise to Chief General, in truth he has no true skills, he is under the command of the Ning army, our army will definitely win!"
Zhan Hu stood up and cupped his hands towards Tang Yin: "Great King, our army will sign the challenge for Ning Jun right now!"
Tang Yin waved his hand and laughed: "Don't rush! Wei Zheng has left, but before he left, he must have told Ming Xiaotian not to fight so easily, we need to think of a way to draw Ming Xiaotian out for a fight! "
"Your Majesty, you mean ?"
Tang Yin's eyes turned, and he said: "Tomorrow, first we will reduce the number of guards in our camp. After two days, our army will leave the camp, retreating twenty Li."
"What?" Hearing that, everyone was struck dumb. Wei Zheng, who had caused them the greatest headache, was finally transferred back to the capital, but why did the King order the withdrawal of the troops? Seeing that the generals were all confused, Tang Yin laughed confidently: "If we do not do this, how can Ning Jun take the bait?"
Ming Xiaotian's ability was far inferior to Wei Zheng's, but he was also present during the battle between Feng Ning's troops, and he was very clear about the outcome of the battle. Although their side won in the end and their Feng Army retreated, their side's losses were even greater than their Feng Army's.
After he took over the position of Commander, he also imitated Wei Zheng and ordered all the soldiers in the army not to fight in private. However, on the second day that Wei Zheng was transferred away, the scouts of the Ning Army reported that the number of guards in the Feng Army Camp s had suddenly decreased, and the sounds of training in the camp was also much quieter than before.
Ming Xiaotian frowned, and ordered the scouts to report back. On the second day, the scouts reported that the number of guards in the Feng Army Camp s were once again reduced, and the sound of drills in the camp was even weaker. On the third day, there were almost no longer any guards left on the Feng Army Camp s. The drills in the camp had completely disappeared, and the only thing that could be seen was the chaos in the camp.
Looking at its posture, it seemed that Feng Army was about to rise from the camp. The scout immediately informed Ming Xiaotian of the situation. After the latter heard this, he could not believe his own ears, was Feng Army about to set up camp? With their own army in front blocking their way, they would not be able to go west. Then, the only possibility left was that Feng Army was about to retreat?
Wei Zheng had only left for a few days, yet his Feng Army was already retreating. The heavens were too merciful with him, to actually send the strange skill of forcing his Feng Army to fall onto his head. Ming Xiaotian was happy, the General of Ning Country in the camp was even more excited, the war was finally going to end, and the invading Feng Army was finally going to leave.
At this time, the impulsive General of Ning Country immediately stood up, cupped her hands and said: "Chief General, Feng Army retreat, is the right time for us to take the initiative and attack, Chief General must not miss this chance!"
That's right! Ming Xiaotian's eyes lit up at first, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and muttered: "Feng Army is cunning, we must not be cautious! Our army will first wait and see, and see if Feng Army is truly refunded or not! "
"Yes!" Chief General! "
Early morning of the next day. Ming Xiaotian was still asleep when he heard someone from outside continuously shout, "The Feng Army has been withdrawn! Feng Army is retreating! " Hearing the shout, Ming Xiaotian acted as if he was struck by lightning, he climbed up from the bed like a wheel, without even bothering to put on his shoes, he strode to the entrance of the camp and asked the guards: "What are everyone shouting for?"
"Reporting to General, this is a joyous occasion, a joyous occasion! Feng Army has retreated! The Feng Army camp has been cleared! "
"Huh?" Ming Xiaotian sucked in a breath, he stood in a daze, and only after a long while did he regain his senses, and anxiously asked: "This ? When did this happen? When did Feng Army retreat? "
The guards said in unison, "We just got the news!"
Without waiting for Ming Xiaotian to continue asking, the scout from the Ning Army rode his horse over and arrived in front of Ming Xiaotian's tent. He dismounted from his horse and crawled and rolled over to Ming Xiaotian, screaming out: "Chief General, Feng Army has already been withdrawn from the camp, they have now retreated several li!"
"Did you see it clearly?"
"It is absolutely true that I have seen it with my own eyes!"
"Haha!" The heavens are on my side! The heavens are truly on my side! " Ming Xiaotian finally believed that this was true and jumped up in excitement. Waving his hands towards the guards on the left and right, he said, "Quick! Gather all the generals, and follow me to the Feng Army's camp! " After he finished speaking, he took the lead to walk towards the Central Army Tent.
"General, general, you haven't worn shoes and clothes yet!" The guards rushed forward and stopped Ming Xiaotian who was extremely excited. Ming Xiaotian looked down and strongly patted his own head. He turned around and walked back into the tent, put on the armor with the help of the guards, then quickly walked towards the Central Army Tent.
The Feng Army had indeed been withdrawn, and the original Feng Army Camp was now only left with a floor full of wolf ashes. Many sundries that were inconvenient to carry had been left behind, indicating that the withdrawal of the Feng Army was extremely hurried. The truth proved that the Feng Army was not a fake intention to retreat, but it was a genuine retreat. Many General of Feng Country began to suggest to Ming Xiaotian that they should chase after and kill the retreating Feng Army.
But Ming Xiaotian still did not agree. He did not understand, why did he retreat with his Feng Army intact? If not for the big change in the army, it would be impossible for Feng Army to give up so easily.
In the Feng Army Camp, Ming Xiaotian was accompanied by many generals. As he strolled, he looked to his left and right, hoping to find some clues regarding the retreat of Feng Army.
After walking for a while, Ming Xiaotian suddenly frowned, he turned and asked the generals behind him: "Why does the Wind Camp have a strange smell?"
At this time, all the General of Ning Country s had also caught a whiff of his scent. They nodded and replied, "There is indeed a strange smell. It's the smell of medicine?! "0
Ming Xiaotian did not ask anymore, and continued walking, not long after, he saw a medicine jar on the ground. Ming Xiaotian anxiously walked forward, crouched down, and picked up the jar, without even putting it to his nose, the strong smell of the medicine assaulted him. He tilted his head, and covered his nose with his sleeve, and asked: "Who knows what kind of medicine Feng Army is used to boil?"
The Ning Army only knew how to lead their troops in war, how could they know anything about medicine? Seeing that all the generals were shaking their heads to indicate that they did not know, Ming Xiaotian shouted: "Call the military doctor over!"
Not long after, the guards brought a few military doctors from the Ning Army over. Ming Xiaotian passed the medicine bed to the military doctors and said: "You guys identify the medicine inside, what is it used for?"
After a long while, one of the army doctors raised his head and said: "Chief General, the herbs that are being fried in Feng Army are Chuanxiong, Huangling, Codonopsis, Glycyrrhiza and other medicines."
"Oh?" Ming Xiaotian's mind shook as he strode forward and asked: "What kind of medicine is it used to treat?"
The military doctor looked at his other colleagues, then said affirmatively, "It's used to treat malaria."
Treatment of malaria?! Ming Xiaotian's brows tightly knitted as he sank into deep thought.
At this time, the officer in charge of the scout for the Ning Army suddenly thought of something, and anxiously said to Ming Xiaotian: "General, in the next few days, I will receive quite a bit of information. The number of times Feng Army raids on our villages have been reduced by a lot, but every time they were raided, they would frantically snatch all the medicine in the village, especially the ones mentioned by the military doctors just now."
The moment his words fell, a few Ning Soldier s in front ran over quickly and arrived in front of Ming Xiaotian, panting as they said: "General, in front of us, we have discovered many medicinal altars and dregs left behind by the Feng Army!"
"Oh? Quick, take me to see it! " Ming Xiaotian's eyes lit up, with Ning Soldier leading the way, he quickly followed.
Walking forward for a bit, sure enough, there were dozens of medicine beds laid out on a piece of land filled with junk. Furthermore, the entire floor was filled with pitch-black medicinal dregs. Ming Xiaotian's eyes turned, and he suddenly realised, no wonder the Feng Army would suddenly retreat, it turned out that the Feng Army was spreading with malaria, there were so many medicinal jars remaining, and the number of medicinal jars that were taken might not even be that many, it seemed like there were many soldiers with malaria in the Feng Army.
At this time, the military doctors also walked over, checked the medicinal dregs on the ground, then nodded their heads. The military doctor who spoke just now said seriously: "Chief General, your Hedong is moist, and your Feng Country is dry, and your Hedong is scorching hot, and your Feng Country is cold. This must be the first time the wind man has come here, so he's not adapted to the weather here, and hasn't paid any attention to the measures to protect himself from mosquitoes.
"Haha ?" Ming Xiaotian laughed at the sky. There was a way to treat it, but the recovery process was very long. If one were to suffer from malaria, let alone fighting, people might not even be able to stand straight, and now that a large scale malaria had appeared in the Feng Army, wouldn't that be a good opportunity for them to chase after it?
If he didn't fight now, then how long would he have to wait? Ming Xiaotian was completely spirited this time, his eyes were shining, he even started to daydream about breaking Feng Army, and the scene of the people welcoming him when he led everyone back to Liangzhou.
