Being able to look up again to see the clear and vast sky and wilderness is definitely a joyful thing that makes Zhang Qian and others feel excited.

Looking back at the forest behind me, especially when I looked up in half a month, I could only see the sky cut by dense bamboo leaves. Now that I saw it, Zhang Qian had the illusion of escaping from another world.

“Where is this?”

The only thing Zhang Qian knew was that he actually led his army from Wanli Bamboo Sea, but because there was no accurate description of Wanli Bamboo Sea on the map, Zhang Qian did not know his exact location now, so he could only generally know that he had entered the northeast of the barbarians.

After coming out, there were already large troops stationed on the spot. With Zhang Qian's knowledge, they were digging trenches and styling. Many monks used magic to gather stones into walls, looking like they were trying to build a large village.

Where is this? How dare you set up a camp like this? Aren’t you afraid of being trapped here?

Unfortunately, no one would answer Zhang Qian's question. Even now, he still didn't know who the main general he followed was. The orders he received were given by the Taoist General Office before the departure, and were dismantled and executed by the Jinjian cultivator Lin Ye who was accompanying him according to time.

Now that he was able to come out of the sea of ​​bamboo, Zhang Qian was relieved, and wanted to know who the main general of his trip was as soon as possible, otherwise he would feel very uneasy.

It was probably half a day after Zhang Qian came out that he saw the Gan Lin coming out from behind. The two of them looked at each other from afar and smiled, which was a big rock in their hearts. Fortunately, the old friend had nothing to do.

Afterwards, Zhang Qian was assigned to the errands of the construction of Dazhai, responsible for leveling a slope, and leaving at least 10,000 people open space to be placed in the tent according to the requirements.

Such errands are not too troublesome. There are monks in the army who can help, and the soldiers work hard to pick up the loosened soil.

This busyness continues and will not stop work, but will be suspended in three batches, and will be built day and night. The order given is that the external defense of Dazhai must be completed within two days.

In fact, it is not just a big village, two miles away from the left and right, but there are two small villages that are visiting forward, which are much smaller in scale, but the structure is also built according to long-term existence and is very solid. Gan Lin was leading his brothers to explore the small village on the left and busy.

Until noon the next day, Zhang Qian, who had only rested for two hours, received the first warrant from the chief general, asking them to discuss matters immediately. The signature was written with a name that made Zhang Qian feel familiar: Pan Shigui.

They rushed to the tent of Dazhai. They met Gan Lin who was also coming at the door. The two of them hadn't gotten together for a long time and immediately regained their sense of familiarity and immediately whispered.

"I didn't expect that Lord Pan was the leader. You and I should be able to get through this time, right?"

"Of course! Lord Pan is the most nostalgic. You and I are at least the old men under his command, so I must give preferential treatment. But hasn't Lord Pan retired? Why did he come to the front line?"

"Are you stupid? Lord Pan's cultivation level required to retire when he was fighting? Isn't it evil that Yang Yansi was dealt with. Isn't it similar reason for Lord Jiang to leave the army that year? Now Yang Yansi disappeared, Lord Wen took charge of the Ministry of War. How could a famous general like Lord Pan be idle in the mountains?"

"That's right! Lord Pan is here, so I feel relieved. I just don't know what we are doing to build such a large military camp. Could it be that there is no support?"

"It's hard to say. Do you know where this place is?"

"I know, you know?"

"I know you still need to ask you? But I guess we have crossed the Jianchuan line now." Zhang Qian pressed his voice and said last, and Gan Lin's face beside him was shocked.

However, after Zhang Qian said this, Gan Lin felt the same feeling. Indeed, after spending so much effort from Xiaochuan to the Wanli Bamboo Sea, he came out in a crisis for half a month. According to the geographical location of the Wanli Bamboo Sea, after passing through it, he must be in the hinterland of the southeast of the barbarians.

Moreover, it is possible to cross the Jianchuan line, because only by going deeper than Jianchuan can it be meaningful to build a military camp at this location, otherwise it would be a pure brain drain.

After chatting at the door, the two heard their names sing. They quickly sorted out their clothes and bowed to the account.

"Subordinate Zhang Qian, Gan Lin, see the general!"

"Yeah, sit down."

Acquaintances are acquaintances, and there is no need to greet each other in the occasion. After Zhang Qian and Gan Lin took their seats, several generals came in one after another. After a while, the side army that set out from Xiaochuan and finally crossed the bamboo sea, finally ushered in the first formal military strategy meeting.

After Pan Shigui unfolded the map, many of the generals present showed a sudden look. Zhang Qian smiled at Gan Lin beside him, meaning: How? I guess right?

"This is our current location. The Taoist General Administration Office is named "Shimen". I believe you can also see that this place is not far from the upper military camp in the northernmost part of our army's Jianchuan. It can be reached in one day and a night. The normal march is only four and a half days, which is the most important connection point for our army to continue to advance.

In addition, the Wanli Bamboo Sea Secret Pass that you worked hard to open before made Xiaochuan only take half a month to reach here, exponentially shortening the army from Kundao Pass to Wuhu Lake, and then heading north to the long line of troops. You shouldn't need me to remind you of its importance?

Therefore, we have two tasks at present. The first is to build the military camp as soon as possible, and the second is to stick to it.

Just the day before yesterday, Jianchuan had a great victory. The barbarians were trapped and suppressed the army in the upper Jianchuan military camp. They wanted to fight to the death and then form a roundabout team. The lower military camp was countered by the commander Shen Wanlin of Jianchuan. They broke the barbarian offensive in one fell swoop and formed a joint attack of the upper, middle and lower military camps, resolving the crisis in Jianchuan. Yesterday, the upper Jianchuan military camp had sent a mixed army along the edge of the Wanli Bamboo Sea..."

Military strategy is relatively simple, but the news is exciting.

Jianchuan victory!?

Everyone here leads troops to fight. There is no famous general, but they can definitely see the situation clearly. In the Jianchuan victory, the upper military camp is a hard bone thrown into the wolf pack. The barbarians tried their best to bite it off, but they were attacked in turn, and eventually they became the hole to break the deadlock.

No one knows how many details and dangers are there in the middle, but the result is clear: after the Jianchuan victory, the entire defense line will enter the stage of defence to offense. The support point for the long front is the newly named place: Shimen.
Chapter completed!
