Chapter 483

"Report! The barbarians suddenly gathered a large army to advance towards the Xuanmen pass, and the vanguard troops have pushed twenty miles away!" The herald knelt down on one knee to repay the military information.

"Do you know the specific number of the barbarian army?"

"The specific number is still being counted, but the barbarian vanguard force is at least more than 200000." The voice of the herald was faint and heavy.

Two hundred thousand!

Zhou fengmiao and Xueling looked at each other and were surprised.

Generally speaking, the vanguard army shoulders the responsibility of both detecting intelligence and exploratory attack. It can't be too large, but the barbarian vanguard army is as high as 200000 this time!

How large should the large forces behind be?

"The barbarians didn't attack early or late. Why did they choose to attack at this time?" Zhou fengmiao narrowed his eyes and had a hunch.

Although I don't know how many battles I have fought with barbarians, most of the time both sides are engaged in field operations. Siege is extremely rare, let alone attacking the enemy's hinterland. This is a very unwise act. If you are not careful, you may suffer heavy losses.

But the barbarians did.

Is the barbarian attack related to Yang Xuan's discovery?

The vague speculation flashed in Zhou fengmiao's mind. Zhou fengmiao quickly cleared away his miscellaneous thoughts. The top priority is to deal with the barbarian attack.

"Who is the commander of the barbarian vanguard army?"

"Three barbarian princes, lesha."

"Is that him again?" Hearing the name, Zhou fengmiao frowned deeply. In the last fight, lesha's insidious and cunning left a deep impression on Zhou fengmiao.

Zhou fengmiao thought secretly.

Although the barbarian attack was very powerful, Zhou fengmiao was not very worried about the safety of Xuanmen pass.

Xuanmen pass is an important border pass of the whole country. After several generations of operation, it has long become a real war fortress. Relying on the geographical advantage, it is enough to carry dozens of times of the enemy's strength without breaking. What's more, those who can stay in Xuanmen pass are all elite who have experienced hundreds of battles.

It is basically impossible for the barbarians to break through the Xuanmen pass.

Zhou fengmiao knows this very well, so he is worried that the barbarians are making a diversion this time, or there are other conspiracies.

After careful consideration, Zhou fengmiao quickly made a decision.

"Send the order and order the greedy wolf army outside the pass to send scouts to expand the exploration range by 50 miles and look for the traces of barbarians. If anything is found, the whole army will shrink and prepare for defense. If there is no trace of barbarians..."

Zhou fengmiao hesitated and said, "then the whole army will assemble and be ready to insert into the battlefield from the side and give a blow to the barbarian thunder!"

"Order the Huben army to immediately leave the pass and assemble in the southeast to launch a feint attack on the southeast post road. If the garrison of the southeast post road is weak, it will turn the emptiness into reality and recapture the post road at one stroke. If the garrison is closely guarded..."

Zhou fengmiao sneered and said, "then turn around and be ready to attack with the greedy wolf army at the same time to defeat the barbarian army in one fell swoop!"

"The military order is like a disease. Go and pass the order quickly!"

When Zhou fengmiao finished speaking, he waved his big hand and immediately dropped a token with a faint light from his sleeve robe, which flew into the hands of the herald.

With this small token, the herald arched his hands at Zhou fengmiao and made a force on his feet. Suddenly, he turned into a streamer and ran away in the distance.

"Snow spirit." After the herald left, Zhou fengmiao looked at the snow spirit standing on one side and ordered: "you let the giants gather and be ready to charge at any time, waiting for the command to cooperate with the greedy wolf and Huben to charge!"

Xueling arched his hand and turned out of the camp. He was haunted by a faint aura and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After all the arrangements were completed, Zhou fengmiao looked at Wang Mang, who had been on standby. After a moment of silence, he said, "the general wants to organize the city defense. For the time being, he has no energy to explore Xu San's whereabouts."

"General!" Wang Mang's eyes turned red when he heard the speech. Xu Sanyi brought Wang Mang into the greedy wolf army and had long become a close relative of Wang Mang's teacher and father.

"Don't worry. Listen to me." Zhou fengmiao waved his hand to Wang Mang to calm down. After thinking for a while, he slowly said: "now the barbarian siege is the most important event. The general really doesn't have extra energy to deal with other things, but it's urgent to find Xu San's whereabouts, so..."

Zhou fengmiao thought for a while, finally chose the most trusted person from the people who could be transferred, and said to Wang Mang, "I'll send a team to look for Xu San's whereabouts with you."

"Chuan Yuwen will come in!"

"Yes!" The guard outside the door answered and left quickly. After a while, the grim faced Yuwen partisan came in.

"Yuwen, I have an extremely confidential task for you." Time is tight and there is no spare time to greet Zhou fengmiao. Therefore, Zhou fengmiao went straight to the theme and said, "Wang Mang will tell you the specific situation later. I have only two requirements for you."

Speaking of this, Zhou fengmiao's voice sank down, with a faint sense of awe: "first, I give you the highest authority, you are directly responsible for me, and the content of the task should be absolutely confidential and should not be disclosed to anyone except me; second, you must act decisively, if anyone dares to block the way..."

Zhou fengmiao took a deep look at Yu Wen's general and said coldly, "whether it's a general or a marquis, a governor or a noble family, there's no amnesty for killing!"

The sound of boundless murderous spirit unexpectedly made the temperature of the whole camp drop a few minutes out of thin air. Being rushed by the murderous spirit, Wang Mang on one side shivered involuntarily.

Yu wenpian always had a straight face, his eyes were serious and indifferent. He didn't seem to understand what Zhou fengmiao's words meant at all, but answered faintly with an unchanged serious tone: "I will understand at the end."

Zhou fengmiao seemed to be very satisfied with Yuwen's attitude. With a big hand, he flew to Yuwen with a token and rough yellow paper.

Different from the herald, the token in front of general Yuwen is bright gold, and the majesty of the token is even more frightening.

This is Zhou fengmiao's token!

"Destroy the note immediately after reading it."

With such a command, Zhou fengmiao wanted to leave.

"Yes!" When he came to the door, Zhou fengmiao suddenly remembered another thing and added: "Yang Xuan is also a party involved in this matter. If you meet Yang Xuan, you should try to cooperate with him. In addition, it seems that they are still in the camp. When you go, take them away and give them to Yang Xuan."

"I will obey!"

Yuwen bowed his head. Looking up again, Zhou fengmiao had disappeared.

"Tell me what happened." Yuwen glanced at Wang Mang lightly and then opened the note.

"Yes!" Wang Mang swallowed his saliva and looked at Yuwen with a bit of fear. He obviously heard the name of the cold-faced general, "two hours ago..."
