Chapter 179 The duty of a soldier, obey! Obey! Obey again!
"Um?"
Wang Yanqing used her left hand to smooth the bruises on Li Guanqi's face, but when she withdrew her hand, Li Guanqi saw a ring on the ring finger of her left hand.
The small diamonds on it have a slightly brilliant luster.
Li Guanqi was stunned.
The female commander of the Red Blood Army of the Great Luo Dynasty, with a wedding diamond ring on her left ring finger?
This seems to have a bit of a flavor...
"Are you looking at this?"
Wang Yanqing smiled, raised her left hand and showed the ring on her ring finger, "This is my wedding ring.
You may not know that over there in the West, newlyweds exchange rings at the wedding banquet and wear them on the ring finger of their left hand..."
As she said that, the female commander's expression darkened, "My husband's name is Chi Yuan'an. He used to be an exchange student and studied abroad at the Royal War College of the Violet Empire. This Western custom was also followed one day after he got married to me.
Just on a whim, just for fun."
"..."
Li Guanqi looked complicated.
It turns out that Chi Gongming's grandson and Wang Yanqing's husband was named Chi Yuan'an... a leader of the Red Blood Army who died on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang.
"How did he die?"
"Huh?!"
Li Guanqi quickly covered his mouth.
Oops!
Why can't I keep my mouth shut and just ask the question directly after thinking about it?!
"He didn't deserve to die."
Wang Yanqing didn't seem to care about Li Guanqi's outspokenness, he just lowered his head and his voice was hoarse.
"That day, the southern Xinjiang army pressed forward in the area of the Yuli Line, and launched an offensive and defensive campaign with the main force of our Zhennan Army outside the Great Wall of the Yuli Line.
But that was just a feint.
The real goal of Southern Xinjiang is Jinjing City!
Their high priest sent an army from southern Xinjiang to sneak across the Great Wall.
There are more than a dozen four-elephant-level alien-blood warriors in the team, as well as a four-elephant-level magician accompanying the army.
as well as.
With the highest combat power, he leads a team of five-element-level alien-blooded warriors.
This southern Xinjiang raiding team secretly sneaked into the border, intending to go to Jinjing City on the border to start killing and plundering.
Jinjing City is a resource-rich city that occupies a gold crystal vein, hence the name of the city.
Gold crystals are an extremely important strategic material that can help spellcasters at the peak of the Four Symbols understand the law of 'gold', and a considerable part of the inventory is placed in Gold Crystal City.
Once the golden crystals stored in Jinjing City are robbed by Southern Xinjiang, a large number of five-element-level conjurers will be born in Southern Xinjiang!
There must be no mistakes!
But the main force of the Zhennan army was distracted by Wu Xia.
General Zhou Xuanwu and other generals cannot leave, otherwise the high priest of Southern Xinjiang, who is also a seven-star star opposite, will turn the feint attack into an actual offensive.
Therefore, the only option was to mobilize troops from elsewhere.
My husband, Chi Yuan'an, was here at the time. He received an order from General Zhou Xuanwu and led the 10,000 red-blooded troops in this fortress to rescue Jinjing City.
But along the way, my husband noticed something was wrong.
The information given by the general is completely wrong.
How wrong.
In that southern Xinjiang raiding team, in addition to the five-element-level alien-blood warrior leading the team, there were also... three five-element-level conjurers!
But among the ten thousand Red Blood Army, my husband is the only one who is at the Five Elements level.
As for the formation of a military formation of 10,000 Red-blooded troops, they could only form a shadow of a five-element-level general.
Five elements level combat power, two versus four!
What's more, War Commander Xu Ying is said to be at the Five Elements level, but in actual combat, he can't actually beat any Five Elements level practitioner. He just has the power to reach the Five Elements level. The controller is just a Four Elephant level martial artist with a fighting consciousness and The level of power control is much different.
With this comparison of combat power, if a fight really breaks out, the Red Blood Army will definitely be defeated.
But my husband went anyway.
No why.
Just because of the word 'obey'.
My husband is a soldier of the Daluo Dynasty.
Grain stalk
And obedience is the bounden duty of soldiers.
The order given to him by General Zhou Xuanwu was to defend Jinjing City for three days.
So he went, completed the military order, and led 10,000 Red Blood troops to successfully defend Jinjing City for three days until reinforcements arrived.
But……
In order to block the southern Xinjiang raiding team with four five-element-level warriors, my husband must be undefeated with one against three, and also distract the other four-elephant-level warriors from making a sneak attack.
To do this, he uses the "burning blood" ability.
This is a special ability unique to the Chi family...
You can gain powerful power by burning your own life!
Three days.
My husband started burning blood and lasted for three full days.
He defended Jinjing City.
But... he also died in the battle outside Jinjing City. Just before the reinforcements arrived... his life was exhausted and his strength was exhausted. His head was chopped into pieces by the five-element-level alien-blood warrior in Southern Xinjiang with a sword. I, I Even, I even..."
Wang Yanqing lowered his head, tears streaming down his eyes, and choked with sobs, "I didn't even get his whole body..."
"But that Zhou Xuanwu clearly did it on purpose!"
When Li Guanqi heard this, he couldn't help but drink in a low voice.
"He deliberately concealed the true combat strength of the southern Xinjiang raiding team and gave Commander Chi Yuanan a completely wrong intelligence, but still asked him to rush to Jinjing City to defend it!
But the 10,000 Red Blood Army couldn't defend it at all!
That Zhou Xuanwu knew that the Chi family’s superpower was ‘blood burning’, so he did it on purpose.
What he wants! Is for Commander Chi Yuanan to activate his ‘blood burning’ ability and use his own life to defend the city!”
Li Guanqi's eyes were gloomy.
That Zhennan general Zhou Xuanwu clearly deliberately wanted Chi Yuanan to die, and deliberately asked him to defend the Jinjing City's Jinjing inventory with his life!
"Silly boy, don't say such things in the future. Talking about important officials in the imperial court is a serious crime."
Wang Yanqing wiped the tears from her eyes and forced a smile, her red eyes filled with infinite tenderness for her husband.
"As for Zhou Xuanwu...hehe, even a kid like you, who has just entered the military camp, can see things. My husband has been on the battlefield and in the court for a long time, how can he not know this?
Of course he knew General Zhou Xuanwu's intentions.
But he still went without hesitation.
Because the Jinjing City's Jinjing inventory cannot be lost, the consequences of this capital investment are too serious.
Even more because...the duty of a soldier is to obey."
Having said this, Wang Yanqing looked at Li Guanqi and said with a smile: "No matter how unbelievable the superior's order is, even if the superior clearly wants you to die, for the sake of our country and the people of Daluo, we soldiers must obey without hesitation and go." implement."
"Junior brother, this is the Daluo soldier, do you understand?"
"don't know."
Li Guanqi shook his head, took half a step back, looked at Wang Yanqing, and said solemnly: "It was me, if General Zhou Xuanwu's military order clearly required me to take my brothers to die together, then I would not obey it."
He can't do this kind of thing!
"..."
Wang Yanqing was silent for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I can, because I am a soldier of the Daluo Dynasty, and because I am the wife of Chi Yuan'an.
I cannot embarrass my husband. I inherited his military position and I must inherit his will to protect my family and country, even if I need to die for it."
After saying that, the female commander turned her head, her back to Li Guanqi, and said softly: "Junior brother."
"Um?"
"You are not fit to be a soldier."
"..."
Li Guanqi was silent.
He wanted to say something... but was speechless.
Foolish loyalty is an absolute compliment for soldiers.
So Li Guanqi nodded, "Of course, I am indeed not suitable to be such a soldier."
"Go ahead."
Wang Yanqing turned her back to him and waved her hand.
"It's almost time for breakfast, let's go eat first."
