Chapter 144 The Dragon King leads the army

Yuan Xunlu looked at the army in front of him.

on the mainland,

The military systems of empires and kingdoms vary, but they are basically based on conscription, supplemented by the private soldiers of the nobles as the backbone.

For example, take the Tiandou Royal Knights, which are actually private soldiers belonging to the emperor of the Tiandou Empire, the largest noble.

However, ordinary people are forcibly recruited into the army in the form of military service, so combat effectiveness cannot be guaranteed.

When fighting with a tailwind, they may still do well, but if there is a slight defeat in the front, then they will run faster than anyone else.

So basically any large army has "elite soldiers".

During a war, ordinary soldiers bravely rush together with the elite soldiers.

Good luck, no problem,

In a headwind situation, the elite can ensure that this group of ordinary soldiers will not be defeated.

elite soldiers,

This is the guarantee of the combat effectiveness of this army.

The army led by Yuan Xunlu consisted of five thousand people.

Eight hundred of them are elites, while the remaining 4,200 were picked up from scratch and trained for less than a month at most.

The reason why the quality of the soldiers is so poor is because there are no more suitable soldiers near Tiandou City.

The remaining Tiandou Royal Knights still guard Tiandou City, and the remaining local army... It's better to capture the strong men, at least those people are easy to deceive, and they are not veterans.

You can clearly see confusion and fear on the faces of those whose former profession was farmers but whose current profession is warriors.

Yuan Ling'er and Ajie stood behind Yuan Xunlu, one on the left and the other on the right, like two generals.

Needless to say, Ajie, being a soldier is suitable for a man like him who has a lot of meat but is not fat but strong.

But after Yuan Ling'er put on this armor,

Yuan Xunlu really felt that his daughter was a bit like a heroine who was "outdone by women".

A cavalry came from Juechen. The knight jumped off his horse and reported to Yuan Xunlu.

"General Yuan, please review."

The person who said this was Xie Senzhi, a distant nephew of Mr. Xie.

Although he is a relative of Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie also has many relatives, and Xie Senzhi is basically the kind of person who doesn't care about anything.

In order to get a chance to go on an expedition with Yuan Xunlu, Xie Senzhi spent a lot of gold soul coins and made a lot of connections.

There are many people like him, most of them are children of noble families.

after all,

Young people from aristocratic families are not stupid either. If they follow the Dragon Emperor Douluo, they will definitely win this battle. Isn't it good to just do military work while lying down?

"Is everyone here? Thank you, General."

Yuan Xunlu asked,

This is a bit like the feeling of being called on by the teacher during an online class.

This was Yuan Xunlu's first time leading an army, and he took it very seriously.

The last time he stood on a high platform and faced the eyes of so many people was in his previous life.

"Well……"

When Xie Senzhi heard Yuan Xunlu call himself a general, he didn't know that Yuan Xunlu was promoting him.

After all, his official position is only that of a lieutenant general, and he is still one of those lieutenant generals who are obtained through connections.

"Wang Youba and the others...were a little slack," Vice General Xie could only say.

Who would have thought that Yuan Xunlu would not give Vice General Xie any face?

He said coldly:

"That means we are not all here, not all here... What are you talking about about reviewing with me?!"

Lieutenant General Xie froze. The so-called "three things to do" when a new official takes office is obviously Yuan Xunlu's desire to establish his authority.

In line with the principle that a dead Taoist friend should never die a poor Taoist, Lieutenant General Xie dozed off and sold off all the aristocratic children of Wang Youzhi and his entourage.

"Wang Youyi and the others had a drinking binge yesterday, and they must be hungover now."

"Bring them all here, I don't need to invite them."

Yuan Xunlu grasped the aura of such a superior person and said a few words, but he was so frightened that Lieutenant General Xie quickly mounted his horse to arrest the person.

Yuan Ling'er couldn't help but sneer: "How can there be such an idiot in the world."

Yuan Xunlu didn't say anything, he just felt speechless.

This kind of thing is the same as when teachers take online classes.

Yesterday I said that online classes would start at eight o'clock this morning, but you had to stay up late playing on your phone and slept until nine o'clock.

Then you are considered late if you don’t clock in,

Who's to blame?

After a while,

Lieutenant General Xie brought the confused Wang Youyi and other aristocratic children to the playground.

When they saw Yuan Xunlu's evil gaze, they all sobered up.

Yuan Xunlu used his soul power, and the sound was loud enough for the entire army to hear,

he asked:

"When will we gather today? Did I tell you yesterday?"

"Say...said." Wang Youyi was as frightened as a quail.

"I'm asking you a question! Did I say it or not?!" Yuan Xunlu shouted.

Only then did Wang Youyi realize that he was not asking them, but the entire army.

The three armies were shocked and replied in unison:

"Said it!"

"I said...then why are you late?" Yuan Xunlu looked at Wang Youyi again.

Wang Youyi hesitated and did not dare to speak.

There was no way he could say in front of Yuan Xunlu that the girl last night was so wet and that he was just having fun for a while.

"Vice General Xie, what will happen if you disobey military orders?"

Yuan Xunlu asked again.

"Behead according to law!"

Vice General Xie said this very simply, for fear of offending himself, he did not hesitate at all.

"Okay, that's it."

Without Yuan Xunlu's signal, Yuan Ling'er took the initiative to step forward and release his martial soul. The first soul ring flashed and several big heads flew up.

After killing the people, Yuan Ling'er retreated behind Yuan Xunlu.

Lieutenant General Xie felt a chill.

Seeing this person's soul ring, of course he knew that this soldier was the famous goddess of light Yuan Ling'er.

But... who knew that such a pretty girl could kill people without blinking an eye.

Yuan Xunlu floated from the high platform and shouted to the troops below:

"I don't care what kind of young masters you were before, or whether you were commoners... or even serfs.

I only care whether you obey my orders or not!

My order now is to stand still and not move!"

Yuan Xunlu's voice was loud enough for everyone to hear.

The whole army immediately stood up straight, fearing that Yuan Xunlu would be dissatisfied.

"I said, stand still."

Yuan Xunlu said, waved his hand, took out a dozen large boxes from the soul guide, and threw them on the ground.

The quality of the box was not very good. When I dropped it, it broke into pieces, and a lot of gold soul coins were scattered from inside.

on the spot,

Several of the sergeants standing there went crazy and ran directly to get the gold soul coins.
