When Zhao Xiaole walked onto the tower, each of the burly soldiers saluted him respectfully, their eyes full of respect.
now.
The story of the "One Line of Sky" Canyon has long been spread throughout the Chuzhou Army.
Only then did they realize that the man who came down from the imperial court was not actually a vase, but a vase made of real materials.
To be able to take the enemy general's head among thousands of armies, is this something that a vase can do?
"Well, you will have to work hard next!"
Zhao Xiaole patted the shoulder of a recruit next to him and said.
The soldier's face was immediately full of excitement and excitement, and he trembled and said: "No...it's not hard, sir...you are running around for us, so...it's hard...
!”
He stammered a sentence and divided it into several paragraphs, causing the people around him to burst into laughter.
The recruit's face instantly turned red.
Zhao Xiaole also laughed and said: "Why am I working so hard? You are the ones who will work the hardest next. Have you seen the enemies outside the city?"
He pointed at the surging Yan army outside the city and asked, "Are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!"
The recruit shook his head firmly, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "I originally thought these soldiers from the Yan Kingdom were so powerful, but it turns out they are just fancy but useless!"
"My lord, please watch. If their commander dares to come out in a while, I will shoot him off his horse!"
He patted the bow on his shoulder with confidence.
"Hahaha......"
This sentence made other veterans laugh.
They thought so when they first joined the army, but after a few years they realized that it was extremely difficult.
Because their coach will never appear within your shooting range, how can you shoot him?
Zhao Xiaole patted his shoulder with encouragement and said: "Well done, you are ambitious!"
"You're right, these Yan soldiers are just fancy but useless!"
"Yesterday, those 3,000 people were killed by 500 of us until they were pissed off?"
"Hahaha......"
Everyone laughed again.
In the distance, Xie Junhao looked at Zhao Xiaole mingling with the soldiers with some surprise, and his ears were filled with praises for him.
"I really didn't expect Mr. Zhao to be so approachable. I saw him so serious during the military parade that day and thought he was fierce!"
"Yes! I thought so at first, but now it seems that Mr. Zhao is quite easy to talk to!"
"Hey, that's for us. Didn't you see how Mr. Zhao treated those Yan Kingdom dogs last night? He scared them to the point of peeing!"
"Hahaha... talk about it, talk about it!"
Seeing these soldiers who were still a little nervous at first, they relaxed a lot with just a few words from Zhao Xiaole, and Xie Junhao's face suddenly showed a look of admiration.
This was a skill that he had not learned much in more than 20 years as a soldier, but Zhao Xiaole used it so easily and casually.
And as far as he knew, this was Zhao Xiaole's first time on the battlefield!
"grown ups!"
Xie Junhao walked straight over and saluted respectfully.
Zhao Xiaole waved his hand and said: "We don't need to be so polite with each other, how about it? How is the city defense inspection going?"
"Huh? Sir, do you know?"
Xie Junhao suddenly glanced at Zhao Xiaole in surprise.
He never said before that he was going to inspect the city defense.
But when he thought about it, Zhao Xiaole had eyes all over the city, and he felt relieved.
However, Zhao Xiaole said with a smile: "Of course, doesn't every general go to the front to inspect the front before a battle? In doing so, he not only inspects the defense line, but also tells the soldiers that he is with them?"
Xie Junhao looked at Zhao Xiaole with eyes full of surprise.
He looked at Zhao Xiaole with admiration and said: "Your Excellency, you are right. Inspecting the city defense on the eve of the war does have this effect."
"But this truth is something that I have thought about for twenty years before I figured it out, but I didn't expect that you would realize it at such a young age. I really admire you!"
Zhao Xiaole smiled, he wanted to say that it was a pity that you were not born in a good era.
In the age of information explosion, as long as you are willing to use your hands, a lot of knowledge can be found.
Of course, Zhao Xiaole also saw this in the novel. Now that I said it casually, I didn’t expect it to be true!
"How is it? Is our city defense strong? Is there anything that needs improvement?"
Zhao Xiaole asked.
The military aspect involved a blind spot in his knowledge, so he had to ask Xie Junhao for advice in this regard.
Hearing this question, Xie Junhao hesitated for a moment. Seeing that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said: "Master Qi, our city defense does not have any big problems. The city walls are very strong and the weapons are abundant."
"It's just that our number is too small, and the enemy's number is more than five times ours. This is a very difficult battle!"
Zhao Xiaole nodded.
Indeed, it was precisely for this reason that he sent people to the capital overnight to ask for help. Otherwise, with their small number of people, they would not be able to defend it sooner or later.
"Coming!"
Xie Junhao's voice suddenly dropped.
The two of them looked outside the city together.
I saw that the "black dragon"-like army had arrived outside Chuzhou City and formed a long dragon, which was really scary.
A black-armored knight rushed out of the Yan army, stood outside the shooting range and shouted: "Who is the commander-in-chief of the Chuzhou Army? My governor has something to say to your commander-in-chief!"
"Um?"
Zhao Xiaole and Xie Junhao immediately looked into the depths of the army in surprise, wondering what the commander-in-chief of the Yan Army wanted to do.
But they know that they must not give in now, otherwise their morale will be dampened and their situation will be even more dangerous.
The two of them looked at each other, and then Zhao Xiaole stood up and said loudly: "I am the commander-in-chief of the Chuzhou Army, and I want you all to come and see this capital as soon as possible!"
He said this as if the commander-in-chief of the Yan army was just a pawn under his command. When he heard this, all the soldiers' eyes lit up and their roars shook the sky.
However, on the shafts of one or two carriages of the Yan Kingdom's Central Army, the young people smiled with disdain and said: "Childish!"
After saying that, he asked someone to push the car over and got on it.
When he was preparing to go to the front, the counselor on the side was a little puzzled and said: "Captain, why do you put yourself in danger?"
"We have an army of 50,000, which is enough to attack the city and seize the territory. Why bother to fight with them again?"
The young man glanced at him, then looked at Chuzhou City and slowly shook his head and said: "Feng Ruo, although our army has fifty thousand, the Chuzhou Army is not a vegetarian."
"In addition, Chuzhou city is thick, so it is not that easy to capture."
"I came here to kill the morale of the Chuzhou Army. Once the morale is lost, it will be easier for us to capture Chuzhou City!"
The counselor's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly bowed and said, "Is it that I am being shallow, or is it that you, Commander, are wise?"
The young man chuckled, ignored his flattery, waved the feather fan in his hand, and was pushed to the front.
