With this thought in his mind, Marquis Zhongcheng did not say it out loud. He did not want to dampen his nephew's enthusiasm. It was just that sometimes he felt bad for having to bear so much money to train these people.
Marquis Zhongcheng had seen Shen Ao's food during his military training. It was no exaggeration to say that it was better than what he usually ate. With three meats, four vegetables and nutritious soup, this meal was equivalent to eight dishes. The training soldiers had an appetite. It's also very good. In this way, just eating this item will cost money like water. This means that Shen Ao has a stronger ability to make money. Otherwise, I am afraid that if it is replaced by someone else, even if he can afford it, It will also be very distressing.
Spending money like water is just to train three hundred guards. People like Zhongchenghou who have no concept of money are often dumbfounded. In his opinion, with such dedication, it is better to win over more dark power masters. Wouldn't it be safer to follow him?
But all the doubts and confusions just disappeared.
From the time when the Shanshan Guards appeared, to the time when the Jin soldiers were forced to surrender, it was only a matter of a stick of incense. Looking at the Jin soldiers, there were more than 600 casualties and more than 600 surrenders. This kind of victory was far from asking some secret troops to surrender. An expert can do it.
Perhaps those people in the world can play their role in a one-on-one competition. But when two armies are fighting, the role they can play is very limited, let alone wanting to win the battle. It is even more impossible to annihilate the opponent.
On the other hand, the three hundred Shanshan Guards attacked with a wave of bows and arrows, and then fired their guns at close range. In a short period of time, one of them defeated at least two opponents, and their skill was astonishing.
After all, Shen Yunyi is also a master in the middle stage of transforming energy, so there is no problem with his eyesight. He had carefully observed just now that when the Three Hundred Shanshan Guards attacked, there was basically no unnecessary movement, and the gun was fired. The angle and strength are also just right, so that all the opponents can be eliminated without using any extra effort. It also better preserves one's own physical strength, so that even when facing more enemies, it is still possible. And the ability to fight again.
Among them, even though there is the reason for the bonus of Dawanma, it is more due to the hard work during training, which leads to such perfect results that people can't help but clap their hands in praise.
"Uncle, my nephew is late." On the hillside, Shen Ao came to Zhongcheng Hou and half-knelt on the ground, holding his fists to apologize.
Marquis Zhongcheng, who had already gotten off Zhou Qian's back, endured the pain caused by his leg injury and stepped forward to support Shen Ao, who was half-kneeling. "It's not too late, it's not too late. Everything is just right, just right."
"Uncle, are you injured?" Seeing that the corners of Zhongcheng Hou's mouth could not help but twitch a few times as he laughed, Shen Ao exclaimed, then he supported Shen Yunyi, and when he saw the clothes wrapped around his legs When the wound was still oozing blood, he quickly turned around and shouted behind him: "Medical soldier, come quickly and bandage the Marquis. Others will take care of the injured brothers."
As Shen Ao spoke, his eyes fell on Zhou Qian and others. He nodded encouragingly, and then said, "Yes, you have all worked hard. You are all good men."
With just a word of encouragement, Zhou Qian and others fell to their knees on the ground. "Master, we are useless. More than a hundred brothers have died, and they are the good ones."
"Okay, it's all good. I see your hard work, and I will definitely not let you down." The corners of Shen Ao's eyes were also a little moist. Although he had made certain mental preparations on the way here, but when he arrived, When he saw that the two hundred security guards who were neatly dressed and energetic before departure were now in ragged clothes, with sunken eyes and injuries on their bodies, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in his heart.
Shen Ao hates war.
But Shen Ao knew better that to end this troubled world, more wars and victorious battles were needed. At that time, no one knew how many people would die.
As the ancients said, one general can make thousands of bones dry up! You will not deceive me sincerely.
More and more Mountain-Shaking Guards swarmed behind them. Battlefield rescue was also one of the subjects they must learn. Not only that, each of them had two first-aid kits, which included bandages, cotton, spirits, etc. , to ensure that you can receive immediate treatment and treatment when injured.
The injuries of Marquis Zhongcheng, Zhou Qian and others cannot be cured with a first aid kit. But we need to deal with them first to prevent them from continuing to be infected. After returning home, naturally better doctors will come for diagnosis and treatment to ensure that No sequelae are left behind.
While the wound was being treated, Feng Xun came over and said, "Master, how should we deal with those people?"
"The chief culprit must be punished. As for the accomplices... let them go." Shen Ao is not a cruel person after all. After thinking about it, he still did not issue an order to kill them all. Just like Bai Qi did, he killed 300,000 Zhao prisoners. Obviously he can't do it.
"No." Feng Xun agreed. In fact, the method of dealing with prisoners had been studied during training. The culprit must be killed. There are no conditions or reasons for this.
After receiving the order, Feng Xun immediately pulled out a sharp dagger from his body, and then led a group of Shanshan Guards towards the captured Jin soldiers.
As for Rong Huang, there is no doubt that he will die. Just because he chased his uncle and the security personnel for three days and two nights, there will be no way for him to survive. Even if he was kidnapped, he kept begging for mercy, and was even willing to obey Shen Ao's orders. Act, but still did not change the outcome that he must die.
A scream came from Rong Huang's mouth. This captain of the Jin army died at the foot of the stone mountain before he could realize his wish to perform meritorious service on the battlefield. It was regarded as a result of his own sin.
After the enemy was dealt with, the next step was to deal with the internal affairs. It was still hundreds of miles away from Shitou Mountain to Daliang City. Naturally, we couldn't carry these corpses forward at such a long distance, so we started to burn the fire, leaving them alone. The ashes were written with their names one by one and put into the porcelain altar that had been prepared long ago. They will follow Shen Ao through thousands of Jin troops and return to Daliang City.
...
Dingzhou.
More than 100,000 Jin troops came to the city.
Looking ten miles away, you can see densely packed military tents. People with trypophobia will inevitably be frightened when they see this.
On top of the Dingzhou city tower, Emperor Qianwen stood in golden armor, looking from a distance, with indescribable mixed feelings in his heart.
After three days of preparation and three days of traveling, he finally arrived at Dingzhou City, which had not yet been conquered.
But did he really come in time?
Looking from a distance, countless military tents were connected one after another. Emperor Qianwen knew that these were all intentional by the Jin army. They had long known that Daliang City had high walls and was not easy to attack. So they chose to settle down. This is a city with low walls and low city, just to force myself to fight them here.
At this moment, Emperor Qianwen felt a little regretful. If he had known this, he should not have been so anxious, nor should he have led the expedition in person. He could have just waited in Daliang City. But now, now that he is here, there is absolutely no reason to retreat. , otherwise, the morale of the military will inevitably be weakened. If this is the case, the situation will be out of control and irreversible.
I have fallen into a trap.
I have understood everything in my heart, and now that I have reached this point, I cannot retreat. At this time, the only thing I can do is to start a decisive battle with the 150,000 Jin army here.
Fifty thousand versus 150,000, a three-fold difference in military strength, made Emperor Qianwen feel great pressure on his shoulders, but the greater pressure was on the stability of Daliang City.
If you can't get a victory here, once someone is interested in Daliang City, for example, King Zhong, suddenly sends troops south to attack Daliang. If you don't even have a place to stay, what will happen to the soldiers who follow you? Think about it, how will the morale of the army be turbulent?
Can such an army still win the war?
Thinking about it, Emperor Qianwen felt terrible.
"Your Majesty, it's windy here, so we'd better retreat to the city first." Shi Hongyun, the Silver Armored General, spoke.
This time, he came here in high spirits. He originally wanted to rely on the city wall of Zhenzhou to defend the Jin army from the outside, and then look for opportunities to defeat the enemy and achieve great success. But who would have thought that Zhenzhou had already fallen, and he could not help himself. I didn't know that, but I got into someone's ambush circle. If I hadn't run quickly when I saw the opportunity, I would have been dead by now.
"Hmph." Emperor Qianwen let out a sound of disdain and glanced at Shi Hongyun coldly, but finally got off the tower and ran towards the city's Yamen.
Shi Hongyun suffered a huge defeat this time and was supposed to be severely punished. However, considering that no one had thought of the loss of Zhenzhou before and that this person was still his confidant, he finally decided not to punish him. But in order to let the other party make up for his mistakes, This time it is necessary to let the opponent take the lead.
After returning to the yamen, it was time to discuss the matter. For a while, a group of generals stood on both sides. Among them, the one on the left was the golden armored guard, and the one standing on the right was the silver armored guard.
In contrast, besides him, Shi Hongyun's side only had Qiu Yuan and Huo Yang. The other three captains of ten thousand men either died in the Zhenzhou ambush battle, or were unknown like Marquis Zhongcheng. Traces .
People will die on the battlefield, and the captain of ten thousand men is no exception. Under the pressure of the army and in the melee, they are just one of a kind.
Ignoring the silver-armored generals who lowered their heads, Emperor Qianwen now had to consider how to face the 150,000 Jin soldiers outside the city.
Emperor Qianwen sat high at the head, and his cold eyes swept over the faces of the generals. When everyone was attentive, he spoke, "pass the order, in units of thousands, to invest 3,000 people at a time to defend the city." , starting with the Silver Armored Guards, each team will defend the city for two hours, followed by the Golden Armored Guards. In a word, Dingzhou City must be defended, we have no way out."
