Chapter 79

"Little Marquis, how did you come out?" Li Xiaolang turned to the tent and saw that Gu fan had disappeared. He was worried, but Gu fan outside the tent was staring at the flying flag in a daze. He quickly stepped forward and asked with a smile.

Gu fan turned around carelessly and said to Li Xiaolang, "it's nothing. I just feel stuffy in the tent. I want to come out and have a look..." and he followed Li Xiaolang back to the tent.

An elite guard in black chain armour in the tent met Gu fan and said respectfully, "the commander and the deputy commander are discussing business. Please wait for a moment."

They nodded and sat up on two faded mahogany chairs in the tent. Li Xiaolang knows this place, but Gu fan is here for the first time. He can't help looking at the furnishings in the tent. The furnishings here are very simple. It's just a long table in the middle of the tent. Behind the long table is a hanging silk map with countless thin lines painted in red, blue and black. On the two rows of wooden frames in the camp, there are sparkling swords, swords and halberds, which set off a kind of killing atmosphere.

The guard served tea, and they were safe in the tent, then they retired.

Looking at the big tent, Gu fan looked at Li Xiaolang thoughtfully and asked, "Xiaolang, can you tell me what kind of person this Minghui commander is?"

"Er..." Li Xiaolang frowned slightly and said to Gu fan in a low voice: "it is said that Lord Hui has a good way of fighting..."

"How can there be a set?" Gu fan can't help asking. In his opinion, it is more advantageous for him to have as much information as possible before meeting Ming Hui.

"Young Marquis, commander Minghui was very brave in his attack on the purple swamp barbarians after Marquis arrived in Dali. He took the lead in the front of the army. He used to be the Fenwu captain of the rosefinch department. His troops rushed to the front of the whole army and once won Dianchi, an important frontier town of the barbarians, but in... "Li Xiaolang unconsciously looked around and confirmed that no one else was eavesdropping. Then he lowered his voice and said:" only half a year ago, a strong man came from the barbarians of Zili swamp and led the barbarians to fight against us, According to the legend of the southerners, it seems to be called "Princess Jiuli."

"Is the strong man a woman?" Gu fan was a little surprised, but when he thought of Huan Lingyue, who was not soft hearted but could not kill animals around him, he only felt that the world was so big that there were all kinds of strange things, so he didn't reflect too much.

"Yes, in the past six months, almost all the five Shuntian army units have been defeated by her. Those who lost a little more have even lost nearly ten thousand people in a big war." Li Xiaolang knows this kind of thing. Even if it comes out of the Shuntian army, Guan Haotian, the northern Marquis, will blockade it immediately. Otherwise, when it comes to the capital, he knows that the Shuntian army has suffered so many defeats in the past six months. I'm afraid that Guan Haotian and the dantai Mingjing will not even be able to protect their heads.

"The soldiers of our Beidou Dynasty are very effective in practicing martial arts, and they are equipped with more elite equipment. In this case, they all pay tens of thousands of casualties... Don't the barbarians want to be dead?" Gu fan frowned. He was also impressed by the equipment and combat effectiveness of Zili barbarians. Most of them were only bronzes, fighting with soldiers of the Beidou Dynasty who had been replaced with iron or even steel weapons. Those weapons and armor were almost as good as flour. "Little Marquis, even you think so..." Li Xiaolang shook his head and sighed“ When he received the battle report, he asked the same question. At that time, it was the Tantai Mingjing department where the accident happened, and he was still a little complacent... But it was the barbarian casualties... "Li Xiaolang stretched out his right hand and stretched out his palm to make a gesture.

"Fifty thousand?" Gu fan frowned slightly and said: "the proportion of casualties is very small... This princess Jiuli is really a character..."

But Li Xiaolang shook his head, raised his hand and said, "it's said that there is only this number... It's like losing the whole Shun Tian army."

"Five thousand!" Gu fan exclaimed, "how can this be possible!" Li Xiaolang quickly made a silent gesture, "now the Shuntian army is very sensitive to this number. If you mention it casually, you will be punished according to disturbing the morale of the army!"

"Keke..." Li Xiaolang coughed softly and continued: "this number is said to be calculated according to the corpses of barbarians left on the battlefield when the barbarian army was cleaning the battlefield. It can't be ruled out that the soldiers who were seriously injured died later, and the corpses of a group of dead soldiers taken away by the barbarians, but it should be in this number..."

With 5000 losses, nearly ten thousand casualties of the elite troops of the Beidou Dynasty have been exchanged. What a superb command skill! Gu fan frowned. If he was commanding a weak brigade like the barbarian troops to fight against the elite of the Shun Tian army, unless the opponent didn't have a star level master, he would join the battlefield with his star level strength, Otherwise, he will not be able to make such a record. "But this princess of Jiuli is indeed the lucky star of master Minghui..." Li Xiaolang said in a low voice: "only the rosefinch division of the Shun heavenly army has suffered the least loss in the past six months... Master Minghui is brave in battle, has made a lot of achievements, and has not suffered defeat and deducted points. Compared with several members of the same period, his promotion is naturally faster." Li Xiaolang explained.

"Commander Ming Hui can compete with this princess Jiuli. It seems that there is a heaven out there!" Gu fan sighed when he heard the words. It seemed that he had been guarding Cangyuan in his previous life. He thought that there were few opponents in Tianxuan Prefecture. Unexpectedly, he became a frog in the bottom of the well.

Who knows Li Xiaolang couldn't help laughing when he heard the speech. He raised his head and laughed. Then he bent down and put one hand on his belly, but he still laughed. Even Gu fan doubted whether he would laugh. He could not help but raised his face and asked: "is it so funny?" Seeing that Gu fan's face had changed, Li Xiaolang quickly gathered a smile, but his face was full of smiles, and his eyes were overflowing with tears“ Well, don't laugh. " Gu fan poked Li Xiaolang's arm and said, "tell me, what's the matter..." Li Xiaolang turned his eyes, moved his body to the side, got close to Gu fan's ear, covered his mouth with one hand, bit his ear and said a few words. Gu fan suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Xiaolang. His face was full of surprise: "this... Can't be..." Li Xiaolang patted Gu fan on the shoulder with a smile and said: "Xiao Hou ye, this is all passed down by other people, but I really don't know..." "you put the responsibility on the clean... Don't know..." Gu fan saw Li Xiaolang's smooth, Even some fear, can't help but have some heart to him. It is said that the soldiers of several other departments commented on the troops led by Ming Hui like this: "when the barbarians just fought with them, they could cut them down with axes; When the axe is pulled out, the spear can pierce them; When they turned to pick up the spear, they had already run away and had to shoot with bows and arrows; By the time they put up their arrows, these people had already run and disappeared... "
