The cheers on the school field spread throughout the city.
"They said they were going to attack Tanzhou!" A man lamented beside Yue Er's stall, "It's been so many years, so many years, and we have turned around."
"It's said that there are 30,000 more troops in Tanzhou!" An old man squatted beside the stall, slapped Yue Sanshu's butt as he ran back, and said worriedly: "With the original 20,000 troops, how can we
win?"
Yue Er touched his son's head and saw that he was sweating profusely, so he wiped his face with a cloth. While wiping it, he said, "What are you afraid of? When did you ever lose a battle?"
"Yes! Even if you can't win, you won't lose!"
"That's right."
"As long as you don't lose, you will have a chance next time."
"Come out."
Groups of sergeants came out of the school grounds.
His steps were light and neat, his weapons shining brightly in the sun.
The key point is that every soldier has a sharp gaze and can't see any fear.
"As expected, they are my strongest team in Northern Xinjiang!"
"Look, that's my son!" A woman waved to the array, "Erlang! Erlang!"
In the array, Zhao Yong carried a spear and said to his mother Wang with a red face: "Auntie, go home!"
Mrs. Wang trotted over carrying a bamboo basket.
The sergeant on the side stared, and the captain said: "That's it!"
"This is cooked chicken, this is..."
Zhao Yong blushed and said, "Mom, let's go!"
"What are we going to do?"
Wang stuffed things into his backpack and trotted after him, "You are just a general, follow the superior officer and don't run around, don't act like a hero. It's okay if we don't make meritorious deeds, just don't get into trouble, ah! Look at what I said.
Don’t offend the superior, learn to please, ah!”
"I know, I know."
The team turned around the school grounds and reached the street.
Wang came out and said to Jian Zhuang Fushen, the team member who had acquiesced in her entry into the array, "Thank you very much."
Jian Zhuang said: "If he were not a newcomer, he should be punished right now!"
This is a warning: just once, you will be punished next time.
This is not unkindness, but military discipline.
If anyone can rush into the team and talk nonsense with their relatives, then why fight?
The brigade commander glanced at Jian Zhuang, saying that this was for accounting purposes, and he would be punished later on.
Jian Zhuang said with a smile: "Go back and go down to lead the military law!"
Zhao Yong was anxious, "It's my fault!"
"Shut up!" Jian Zhuang shouted at him.
Zhao Yong's lips moved, "Team Commander..."
"When you enter Yeye's territory, Yeye is your brother. Yeye orders you to jump into the mountains of swords and seas of fire. If you don't jump, Yeye will kill you. If you jump, Yeye will die first!"
"Yes!" Zhao Yong lowered his head and muttered unruly: "I don't have a brother!"
Young people don’t like anyone to act as their elder brother or elder!
Mrs. Wang was blessed again and looked at Zhao Yong turning around, sniffing and her eyes were red.
He said in a trembling voice: "Erlang, my mother-in-law is waiting for you to come home!"
Countless people were standing on both sides of the street.
"Dalang!"
"Brother!"
The calls come and go.
Yang Xuan is outside the state.
"I will lead the army on an expedition. There are not many who can threaten Chenzhou, so just be careful everywhere."
Cao Ying and Lu Qiang nodded.
"Southern part of the town..." Lu Qiang said, "Will Xin Wuji take risks?"
"He doesn't dare!" Yang Xuan said, "The most he can do is wait and see."
"Understood." Lu Qiang saluted.
Yang Xuan mounted his horse, turned around and glanced in the direction of home, "Let's go!"
He was surrounded by guards and slowly headed outside the city.
Along the way, the people looked at him silently.
"These people are so strange and silent." Jiang He'er was a little curious.
He Lianyan knew that the war was dangerous, "Their relatives followed Lang Jun in the war, and their safety depended on Lang Jun. Maybe someone wants to ask Lang Jun, but how to say it? Could it be that I ask you to protect my children? Or please envoy."
You must win this battle...Do you find it interesting?"
"Hmm!" Jiang He'er pondered for a long time, "Interesting!"
He Lianyan glared at her, "The silent ones are shocking."
Jiang He'er didn't believe it and accidentally saw an old man on the right looking at Yang Xuan.
That look!
Straightforward.
With infinite hope.
With a hint of longing.
There are still some concerns.
And, some reverence.
Looking along, the common people were looking at Yang Xuan.
Jiang He'er had never seen such complicated eyes.
She looked to the left and saw the same thing.
Suddenly, she realized something.
"It turns out that the whole of Chenzhou is on Lang Jun's shoulders!"
He Lianyan nodded, "Food, clothing, housing, transportation, all walks of life, conquest and defense, all of these must be taken into consideration."
"It's not easy." Jiang He'er said sincerely.
It's not easy.
But many people are willing to take on such a heavy responsibility, thinking that in this way, life has meaning.
The army left the city.
Then the march began.
Zhao Yonggang was quite excited at first and felt that the team was moving too slowly.
"Team leader, why are you walking so slowly?"
Jian Zhuang smiled and said: "It's not about how fast you march, but how far you go. How fast you go depends on how far you go. For example, if we want to go thousands of miles away, if you walk fifty miles a day, how many days can you go?"
Zhao Yong was thoughtful.
The first day was uneventful.
When camping, Huo Chang cooks and Zhao Yong helps.
"Young man, so excited!"
Huo Chang is very old, and when he smiles, he can see that he is missing two front teeth.
"Um!"
Zhao Yong squatted and helped him light the fire.
"It's good to be excited! Just don't be too excited." Huo Chang flipped the pancake.
"Why?"
"If you are too excited, you will forget yourself and die quickly!"
"I feel like I can kill five Beiliao people."
"But you think you can knock down a wall with one punch now?" Huo Chang said with a smile.
"Well!" Zhao Yong waved his fist, feeling that he had nowhere to vent his energy.
"This is just an illusion."
The leader of the fire did not move quickly, but he would not stop. "Fighting is not only about strength, but also about strategy."
"Chief Fire, do you still know strategy?"
The fire chief is similar to the logistics soldier.
"Haha! I also killed people back then."
The food was ready, and Zhao Yong was the first to get it. Just as he was preparing to go back with his own food, the fire chief said: "Remember, if you can kill with one knife, don't use two. If you can kill with a pound of strength, don't use two."
Use one or two more.”
"knew."
Zhao Yong said nonchalantly.
"Your Majesty!"
The soldiers at the front stood up one after another.
"Stand still!" Jian Zhuang shouted.
Zhao Yong walked to stand next to him and saw Yang Xuan slowly walking towards him surrounded by people.
"Your Majesty seems to be in good spirits!" Zhao Yong said happily.
Yang Xuan smiled and nodded as he walked over, stopped and looked at the food in Zhao Yong's bowl.
"Stewing vegetables with dried pork and adding pancakes is good. But these days you can have vegetables, but after a few days you will just have dried vegetables. Maybe you can get used to it?"
Zhao Yong trembled with excitement, "Yes!"
"oh!"
The young man in front of him looked quite nervous. Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Where do you live from?"
"Peaceful."
Peaceful?
That is your basic base.
Yang Xuan became more interested, "How do you think of joining the army?"
"I want to serve you!" Zhao Yong said loudly.
Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Is this your first expedition?"
"Yes." Zhao Yong said: "The villain is confident that he can kill the enemy!"
"Having confidence is a good thing, but you have to be bold and careful!"
Yang Xuan patted him on the shoulder, "Do a good job, I'm watching you and waiting!"
"yes!"
Yang Xuan left, and Zhao Yong was so excited that he didn't even want to eat.
"What the dog said is very good!"
Jian Zhuang sat next to him with the food and said: "The brigade commander has just noticed you. Boy, if you perform well, if you don't do well, you will be promoted in this battle."
Zhao Yong blushed and said, "Douizheng, I didn't join the army for promotion."
"Hey! Why is that?" Jian Zhuang took a bite of the pancake.
Zhao Yong said: "Back then, my family was so poor that we couldn't take the blame, and I was so thin that my bones were all gone. When Shijun came to Taiping County, my family found a way to make a living. Without Shijun, I wouldn't be living the life I have today. I joined the army because I wanted to serve you.
.Wherever you point your finger, I will strike!"
Before Yang Xuan came to Taiping County, Taiping County was a city of sin. Every year, Taiping relied on money and food allocated from Northern Xinjiang to survive. But the Ministry of Household Affairs could even deduct money and food from Northern Xinjiang. How could a place of exile like Taiping be good?
A full meal or a hungry meal is a compliment, but being hungry is the norm.
The more desperate a person is, the more grateful they will be to the person who pulls him out of despair.
Jian Zhuang looked at him and saw the young man's firm eyes and resolute expression, so he said, "Good boy, well said!"
Unlike civil servants, warriors have simpler ambitions.
March all the way.
On the third day, I met a ranger from the south of the town.
"Prepare……"
the brigade commander shouted.
Zhao Yong pressed the handle of the knife, feeling nervous all over.
But the ranger in the southern part of the town ran away.
He didn't even dare to fight when he came face to face, and he ran faster than a rabbit.
"They don't dare to fight with us!" Jian Zhuang said contemptuously.
It was night, and a few cavalry quietly entered the central army.
"Meet the master."
Xin Wuji knelt down.
"What news did Tanzhou give?" Yang Xuan asked.
The old thief was sitting at the back, holding a brush in his hand, ready to record Xin Wuji's words.
Xin Wuji said: "Tanzhou said that the southern part of the town should attack the Chenzhou Army Food Road."
"That's it?" Yang Xuan felt that this was a bit tolerant.
"If a war breaks out, let the southern part of the town attack Chenzhou's army."
These orders were all within Yang Xuan's expectations.
"It's been hard work these past few years."
He is not He Lianchun, who raises dogs and blackmails his own dogs.
"I have nothing to reward you here..."
"I don't dare!" Xin Wuji kowtowed, and under the light, you could see the sweat stains on his forehead.
"What are you afraid of?" Yang Xuan asked.
Xin Wuji said: "The villain somehow feels majestic when he sees his master."
Yang Xuan said calmly: "If you work hard and do things well, you will naturally be rewarded."
"yes."
Xin Wuji raised his head and said, "I'll take my leave, villain."
"Go for it!"
Xin Wuji resigned.
After leaving the camp, the two guards who followed him asked curiously: "Why is Khan so sweaty? It's not too hot!"
Xin Wuji smiled bitterly, "The master became more and more majestic. Just looking at me, I felt like the mountains were pressing down on me, making me breathless."
The guard was startled, "Isn't the master always very dignified?"
He said it as a matter of course, as if Yang Xuan was his god.
In fact it is.
In the eyes of Wu Dahe and his subordinates, Boss Yang is the incarnation of the God of Fire.
To the gods, one must be loyal, respectful, and respectful from the heart.
Xin Wuji got on the horse, "Now the master speaks less and less, but every word feels as heavy as a thousand words, and people can't help but think about it."
Damn it!
The two guards felt that Xin Wuji was scared to death by his master.
However, this is right!
The march continued on the second day.
Zhao Yong's troops went forward and followed the scouts to respond.
"Enemy rangers found!"
Ahead, you can see cavalry on both sides fighting.
"Follow up!"
the brigade commander shouted.
Zhao Yong followed Jian Zhuang closely. He ran an easy distance in the past, but today he was out of breath.
The enemy's rangers were numerous and powerful. When they saw the infantry approaching, they detached a group of cavalry to meet them.
"Array up!"
the brigade commander shouted.
Zhao Yong stood up, looked left and right with his comrades around him, and aligned themselves.
"Bow and arrow..."
Zhao Yong took out his bow and arrow and looked ahead.
The enemy cavalry kept approaching, and the sound of horse hooves was breathtaking.
"Prepare……"
Zhao Yong drew his bow and nocked an arrow.
"Fire the arrow!"
Zhao Yong let go and didn't know where the arrow flew. He subconsciously put away the long bow and tightened his grip on the spear.
Facing the enemy cavalry, the longbow only has one chance to fire, and then they will be in close combat.
"Lance!"
Long spears were standard equipment in the Tang army, and almost everyone had one.
In an emergency, the spears can be tied together and used as a raft to cross the river.
Ahead, the enemy cavalry is accelerating.
"Relax, this is a bluff!"
Jian Zhuang's words did not make Zhao Yong relax, but instead made him more and more nervous.
Facing the hedgehog-like array of spears, the war horses slowed down.
If you want to be able to directly attack the spear array, you must be an elite. War horses have simulated attacking the spear array many times.
Just like animals in another world go through fire rings, it is not complicated to let animals who are afraid of flames go through fire rings, which means reward and punishment.
"Prepare!"
The enemy dismounted and rushed over with long swords in hand.
The ones behind were still on horseback, waiting for their companions to open a passage, and then they rushed in to kill them.
Win the first battle!
This is Yang Xuan's order.
The scout battle is the first battle.
"kill!"
First row assassination.
Zhao Yong was in the second row and saw the long spear in front of him stabbing into the belly of the enemy, but the enemy roared and threw the long knife in his hand.
"ah!"
The comrade in front of him was stabbed and fell.
"Zhao Yong!"
Jian Zhuang shouted.
Zhao Yong stepped forward, and his comrades behind him pulled away the injured brother.
Zhao Yong's whole body was tense, his vision was blurred, and his breathing was rapid like a bellows.
"kill!"
The comrades around him were assassinated.
Zhao Yong followed the assassination subconsciously.
clang!
The blow was deflected.
Zhao Yong was flustered and felt weak all over.
"Team leader..."
An enemy on the side slashed with a sword.
Jian Zhuang flew over and blocked with his sword.
clang!
The long knife passed over Jian Zhuang's face, and a trace of blood appeared.
Jianzhuang threw the enemy down and killed him with a single blow.
When he got up, the wounds on his face were bleeding, and he looked particularly ferocious.
As he slashed forward, he roared, "Erlang, forget life and death so that you can live! Follow your brother and fight with him!"
Zhao Erlang nodded, "Yes!"
The enemy knew that there was a newcomer here, and the attack point began to tilt this way.
"kill!"
Zhao Yong stabbed, but the spear was crooked.
This shot grazed the enemy's waist, and the enemy howled miserably, and the sword stalled.
Then, the comrade beside him stabbed the man to death with one shot.
"Erlang, kill the enemy!" Jian Zhuang shouted from the side.
"Kill the enemy, kill the enemy!"
Zhao Yong's eyes gradually turned red.
"Erlang, my mother-in-law is waiting for you to come home!"
My mother's call echoed in my mind.
I want to go home!
Ahead, an enemy general discovered Zhao Yong, a newcomer, and rushed over with one of his subordinates.
"Erlang, be careful!"
Jian Zhuang solved his opponent and shouted: "Those behind, help Zhao Erlang!"
The comrade behind him shouted: "Erlang, get out of the way!"
But Zhao Erlang was already confused at this moment.
The long knife was raised.
The sharp blade shines brightly.
The enemy general is grinning.
A gap was opened from here, and the following cavalry followed the attack...
Defeating this Tang army is a good start.
This battle can be expected!
He found that the Tang Army sergeant in front of him looked a little confused.
But he ignored the red eyes.
"kill!"
Zhao Yong roared, all his strength concentrated in his arms.
Stab hard!
puff!
The spear pierced the enemy general's chest and abdomen, and then penetrated like a broken bamboo...all the way through the back, and then encountered resistance again.
Breakthrough again!
The enemy general looked at Zhao Yong in disbelief.
Isn't this a newcomer?
Can……
He turned back with difficulty.
The sergeant behind him looked down at the barrel of his gun.
