On a September afternoon, the sun hangs leisurely in the sky.
The weather is muggy.
Li Mu and Lian Po were summoned to the palace.
When they came to Xianyang Palace, they found that there were not a few people gathered in the square in front of the palace, there were more than a thousand people.
Li Mu was still accompanied by his deputy general Liu Han, who was tall and round.
There was a group of black armored soldiers in the square. The equipment they wore made the big-bodied people stunned and their eyes shone with envy.
The entire army was clad in black secret armor. Even their faces were heavily armored, with only their eyes exposed. The weapons in their hands were also completely black, and they were at least half a foot longer than the weapons usually seen.
These black-armored black soldiers all carry crossbows and arrow pots on their backs. What hangs on their waists are not the common sharp swords of this era, but long knives that are more useful for cutting.
What's even more terrifying is that there are spherical metal spikes on the knees, elbows and other positions of each Qin army armor.
It can be imagined that when this team fights, the lethality that breaks out must be extremely ferocious.
This is a terrifying tribe armed to the teeth.
It was an eye-opener for me to see that there was a team with such luxurious equipment in the world.
"Is this the dragon-armored forbidden army?" Bang Da Yao Yuan asked Lian Po in a low voice who was walking alongside Li Mu.
"Exactly, how do you feel?" Lian Po asked back.
Liu Han straightened his back subconsciously: "The equipment is as good as I have ever seen in my life."
Lian Po turned around and looked at him: "You only mention the equipment, but do you think that if the equipment is the same, the elite Zhao army you once led may not lose to this Qin army?"
Bang Da Yao Yuan is a fierce general, he has his own pride, and of course he said: "Isn't it?
Some things may not be said now, but before the fall of Zhao, all my generals were veterans of many battles, and the Zhao army has never been inferior to Qin, and everyone knows this."
Lian Po smiled and said nothing. After all, he was once a general of Zhao.
Clang!
In front of the 1,200 Dragon Armor Army, in an open space closer to Xianyang Palace, four people were fighting.
The four of them were actually at the saint level. Their swords were blazing, their strength was surging like a tide, and their attacks were incredibly fast. Those with poor eyesight could not even see their moves clearly.
Those four people were Mu Qianshui, Ji Qian, secret officers Fang Junhu and Xin Wu.
The four of them attacked and defended each other, sometimes one against three, sometimes two against each other, and the fighting was extremely fierce.
And Zhao Huaizhong, the leader of the Qin Dynasty, was standing on the corridor in front of Xianyang Palace eating melon.
Liu Qi was waiting attentively on the side, with an ice bucket beside him, and inside the bucket was a frozen fruit plate.
A young palace maid took out the iced fruits with her white hands, tied them with bamboo skewers, and handed them to Zhao Huaizhong.
The Lord of the Qin Dynasty has been immune to the cold and heat for a long time, but he still has this style. He wears clothes and stretches out his hands, and when he comes to eat, he opens his mouth depending on his mood. There are four people behind him, fanning.
"Why did these generals fight?"
Approaching Xianyang Palace, the man with big arms and round waist looked at Mu Qianshui and others.
"Choose a general."
Lian Po said: "The Longjia Army wants to elect two deputy commanders (deputy generals), and these Qin Army generals all want to compete.
The four of them are the four who won in the end among the generals who signed up. They will compete in front of the king, and two will be selected in the end."
Li Mu said solemnly: "Does the deputy general of this team need to be in the realm of a saint?"
Lian Po nodded: "Ang! If I hadn't been worried that I might not be able to defeat the four of them in close combat, I would have wanted to sign up and run for the election."
The big-bodied and round-waisted man couldn't help but be speechless. For a team of more than a thousand people, two lieutenants were selected, and they actually wanted to be in the realm of saints?
There are so many saints in Da Qin?!
Before entering Qin, I always heard that Qin was strong and prosperous. But what exactly is its strength? You will only know after you come and see it.
"The four of them are competing for the position of deputy general. So who is the general of this team?"
"The Dragon Armor Army does not have standing generals, and is usually led by deputy generals. That's why the four of them fought so fiercely."
Lian Po explained: "All the dragon armored troops of more than a thousand people have practiced cultivation. For every five people in a team, the captain must reach the ninth level or above in practice, and those who have entered the realm of the holy law are given priority. Every hundred people form a team,
The leader requires cultivation at the third level of the Holy Dharma Realm or above.
There is one lieutenant for every five hundred people, and the requirement is to be a saint or above.
Generals are appointed during wartime to lead the entire army. Those who are required to be saints, skilled in military tactics, and experienced on the battlefield are given priority."
He said with a big head and a round waist: "A hundred people form a team, and the leader requires the third level of the Holy Law Realm?"
Lian Po smiled and said: "Well, if you join, you may not even be able to compete with the queue leader."
Fuck...Liu Han muttered to himself.
While they were talking, several people had already moved closer to Zhao Huaizhong.
The Lord of Qin then turned back and walked into the study with Li Mu and Lian Po.
The attendants all stayed outside the palace.
In the Xianyang Palace, Fan Qingzhou and Lu Buwei also came one after another and started a temporary small court meeting.
Zhao Huaizhong walked to the main seat and sat down: "We have called all the ministers here to discuss the attack on Yan. We have made a decision. General Meng Ao will be the chief general and will be in charge of the central army.
Two generals, Lian Po and Li Mu, commanded an army of 100,000 each, divided into two groups from the north and south, and jointly attacked Yan.
General Lian Po is the commander-in-chief of the southern route. He will march from the original Wei area to attack Yan. At the same time, he must be careful to guard against the Qi people."
Lian Po was overjoyed.
He is willing to lead the troops to fight. The king is so interesting that he always arranges big battles and falls into his honest hands.
In this battle, Meng Ao was the nominal commander because he was a veteran of the Qin army and was able to convince the crowd.
But just from the fact that Zhao Huai ordered Lian Po and Li Mu to lead one hundred thousand troops each and attack Yan in two groups, we knew that the two of them would play the leading roles in this battle.
Because both of them were ministers of Zhao, they had rich experience with Yan.
Letting two people take the lead in attacking Yan is the most suitable arrangement.
Wang Jian was responsible for containing the Qi people on the eastern front, making it difficult for the Qi people to divide their troops to aid Yan.
After Zhao Huaizhong said this, he handed over the tiger talisman. Lian Po, with a smile on his face, stepped forward to take the military talisman:
"I, Lianpo, will obey the king's orders!"
Lieutenant Zhao Huai turned his attention to Li Mu and also handed out a military talisman: "Order Li Mu to lead the troops and march from the north road to attack Yandi.
I will leave the troops and horses on the northern route to the general's command, and besides attacking Yan, I should also pay attention to the movements of the Xiongnu and Donghu."
The Xiongnu, Donghu, and Yan were all Li Mu's old rivals. With him commanding the troops, he was able to make the best use of his troops.
Li Mu was also quite moved.
He had recently entered Qin, and the Qin people had no shortage of generals, including many elite soldiers and famous generals.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Huaizhong was able to hand over military power to a surrendered general of his, which shows his courage and trust in himself despite all opinions.
Li Mu couldn't help but compare Zhao Wang and Zhao Huaizhong back then, and he could feel the difference between the two more and more.
Therefore, with Li Mu's calmness and his ups and downs in mind, Su Rong stepped forward and took the tiger talisman.
"There is something I need to explain to the general first. The general has just joined Da Qin. In order to fear that the front line dispatching will not be able to control the situation as well as the arms and fingers, I sent Meng Tian and brother Meng Yi as the general's deputy generals." Zhao Huaizhong added.
"Your Majesty has thought carefully, and Li Mu will obey your orders."
"Okay, there is something else. General Li and General Lian Po will listen together."
Zhao Huaizhong turned his attention to Fan Qingzhou: "Tell me."
Fan Qingzhou responded: "Since the unblocking of the four poles of the Earthly Branches in our land of China, my subordinates have followed the king's orders to record the locations of various places in our Qin territory and the corresponding earth veins of Jiuding, and compare the changes before and after.
Two months have passed and many discoveries have been made.”
"After the end of the earth is unsealed, there will be nine holes in the world where the earth's energy spurts out, corresponding to the Nine Cauldrons.
Taking Xianyang as an example, in one month from July to August, the thickness of Xianyang’s heaven and earth vitality increased by about half a percent.
According to statistics, between July and August in Qin, the number of new practitioners who became practitioners increased significantly compared with the past."
