The next day, former general Wu Bi ordered 30,000 Chu troops and marched eastward.

In addition to the 30,000 Chu troops, Wu Bi also had 200 personal guards loyal to him (similar to the Quyang Army and Shaohu Army under Xiong Wuliang).

For Qu Ping, who only had a total of 150,000 Chu troops, sending 30,000 as a vanguard was quite a lot.

Obviously they want to capture [Jianyang] in one fell swoop and get a good start in the war to destroy Vietnam.

The Quyang Army and Shaohu Army under Xiong Wuliang are stationed on the west side of the entire Chu Army camp, which is relatively safe. Since Qu Ping issued the order to "launch in three days", these three days are considered rare.

Relaxed.

You must know that the Qianbubu under Xiong Wuliang's command are all professional troops separated from production and dedicated to training.

Xiong Wuliang gave the death order at the beginning and trained hard to get better soldiers!

Under the devilish supervision of Zhong Hua, Shao Hu and others, these thousand soldiers had to undertake high-intensity training every day. Although they had adequate nutrition and even had meat every day, they were still miserable.

Now in the camp, there are no combat missions for a short time, and training has been suspended. It is a rare feeling of comfort and happiness.

Since the establishment of the Shaohu Army, there has always been a vague intention to compete with the Quyang Army. Zhong Hua and Shaohu looked harmonious on the surface, but they could not help but secretly compete with each other.

After all, Shaohu still remembered how Zhong Hua scared him when he was interrogating him when he was a thief...

It can be regarded as a small grudge.

After resting in the camp for the past two days, the two armies had nothing to do and did not dare to move around at will. They stayed idle in the camp all day, and somehow they got into wrestling activities.

Quyang Army and Shaohu Army usually sent out a few men each to fight, while the rest cheered and cheered.

Zhong Hua and Shao Hu ignored it and allowed the soldiers to gather in the camp to compete.

Both of them are veteran generals who are good at leading troops. They know that such activities are beneficial to maintaining morale and can invisibly increase the cohesion and sense of identity of the soldiers.

Even Shaohu once had an itchy hand and went into battle in person, killing more than a dozen Quyang soldiers alone, which won the full applause of the Shaohu army.

Xiong Wuliang had nothing to do and was very interested in it. He even acted as the referee himself.

It is conceivable that with this lord personally officiating the referee, the soldiers of both armies were even more energetic and tried their best to make a show in front of Xiong Wuliang.

…

"Report to the Lord—Master Zhao Hua is here." When Master Mi Liang was applauding the brave commander of the Shaohu Army, a soldier came to Xiong Wuliang and reported.

Call slip?

Why is he so carefree?

"Please come quickly!" Xiong Wuliang stood up, straightened his clothes, and greeted Zhao Hua.

Zhao Hua walked into Xiong Wuliang's camp, listened to the sergeant's cheers, and felt very puzzled.

The entire Chu army camp, even though there was an order to rest and reorganize, was generally in order and calm, and the soldiers were all worried about the upcoming battle.

Why is Xiong Wuliang’s residence so lively?

Two days ago, the rumor that Xiong Wuliang successfully delivered 10,000 tons of grain quickly spread throughout the Chu army camp.

Countless Chu soldiers were delighted with this result - they didn't need to know how Xiong Wuliang did it, but they now knew that the logistics supply behind them was very powerful!

This is enough and will greatly help stabilize morale.

Zhao Hua was studying in his tent at the time, and was equally shocked when he heard the news!

He knew that Xiong Wuliang was powerful and that Quyang County was rich...but he didn't expect that he was so powerful! So rich!

In Zhao Hua's heart, Quyang County became a place that fascinated him.

How did Xiong Wuliang do it?

Can his approach be promoted throughout Dachu?

In the end, Zhao Hua couldn't restrain his restless heart and took the initiative to come to the camp where Xiong Wuliang's subordinates were stationed and pay a visit.

…

Unlike most soldiers who were temporarily recruited in this era, these sergeants in Xiong Wuliang's camp were all serious, full-time professional soldiers.

Zhao Hua looked around and was greatly impressed by the military appearance of Quyang Army and Shaohu Army!

There was no fear or anxiety about the battle on every soldier's face.

On the contrary, he was full of confidence, and even a little bit...expected.

Whether they are generals or ordinary soldiers, all of them are very strong in stature. Some are as short as a sturdy tree stump, and as tall as a wall...

Everyone's face has a hint of oiliness - this is a sign of adequate nutrition and sufficient protein and oil replenishment.

Compared with most of the temporary recruits who show their talents, this unit is truly extraordinary.

Zhao Hua clicked his tongue and pulled a soldier casually: "There is going to be a war soon. Aren't you afraid?"

The soldier, who belonged to the Shaohu Army, glanced at Zhao Hua with a sinister look——

"My master said that if you kill the enemy on the battlefield, you will be rewarded with money, food, land, and a house..."

"If you are injured in battle, there will be medical care. Even if you are really disabled, you can still arrange a leisurely job on the farm to provide for your retirement."

"If you die in battle, you will receive a large pension, so your family will not have to worry about food and drink."

"What's there to be afraid of?"

The Shaohu sergeant shook his head, stopped paying attention to Zhao Hua, and turned away.

It is precisely because of such generous treatment that the Quyang Army and Shaohu Army belong to a thousand establishments that are very popular in Quyang County!

Zhao Hua was greatly shocked!

This Xiong Wuliang's private army actually received such treatment!

It is conceivable that once on the battlefield...

What kind of combat effectiveness can these thousands of well-trained and well-equipped sergeants have without worries and focus on killing the enemy and getting rewarded?

It is no exaggeration to say that the entire Chu State will turn their attention to it!

Zhao Hua even had some expectations in his heart as to what great results this Quyangjun tribe would achieve in this great offensive!

"I didn't know that Lord Zhao Hua came here, but I didn't welcome him from afar. I apologize..." Zhao Hua raised his head and saw Xiong Wuliang walking over with a smile.

"I've met Mr. Qu Yangjun." Zhao Hua also returned the courtesy.

"Master Zhao Hua, why do you come to my camp?" Xiong Wuliang asked.

Zhao Hua was speechless for a moment.

He didn't know what he was doing here either.

Can I say it's because I'm curious about your Quyang County...

"I have nothing to do, just wandering around..." Zhao Hua smiled.

Xiong Wuliang suddenly had an idea!

This guy is also idle when he is idle.

Can you hire someone to help me as a handyman?

Xiong Wuliang immediately began to frown and sighed repeatedly!

Zhao Hua was puzzled and asked: "The prince transported ten thousand loads of grain in three days, which shocked the whole camp. Now that the army is about to launch, it is the mainstay, why are you sighing?"

Xiong Wuliang sighed with emotion: "I'm afraid that Quyang County...can no longer bear the heavy responsibility of transporting grain!"

Zhao Hua was startled: "Quyang is plump and rich, the scholars and the people are prosperous, and everyone is vying for the first place. Why do you say this?"

Xiong Wuliang sighed and showed helplessness at the right time!

“It’s true that Quyang County has money and food!”

“It’s true that the people are enthusiastic!”

"only……"

"Now I have been appointed by the king as the leader of the right army, and I will go on an expedition with General Zhuguo. The talented people under my command, such as Zhong Hua and others, will all go with me on the expedition..."

"Quyang County is so big, but now there is no one capable of coordinating the overall situation!"
