Ten Capitals, Nine Observations, Eight Poles, Seven Yuans, Six Divisions, Five Elders Compete for Da

It's dark and it's about to rain.

After a while, the wind was strong, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, and then the big raindrops fell from the sky.

The sky cried out and spilled tears on the earth.

And the more than three thousand Loulan infantry were abandoned by the "Loulan Hussar General", and their hearts were like this rainy night, miserable and miserable.

The sudden heavy rain also weakened the officers' control over the soldiers to the lowest point.

Most of the pawns were confused, at a loss, or stopped in place, or ran around like a group of headless chickens.

Morale has already collapsed!
But the only three remaining commanders of Loulan still harbored the delusion of making contributions in their hearts. They each organized two or three hundred soldiers to climb the mountain in the rain, trying to kill Qingzhou General Wei Xuan before the reinforcements arrived.

"You still have time!"

"Protect me, Loulan, and kill all the Dongman!"

Shouting different slogans, the three Loulan commanders led their respective soldiers to launch a final onslaught towards the defense line at the top of Maiji Mountain!

"Whoever beheads the head of the Great General of the Eastern Barbarians will be made Marquis of Ten Thousand Households and will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold!"

"As long as the beheading is successful, there is still hope of victory in this battle!"

With the arrival of these soldiers, Judge Feng Quan's face changed drastically.

Just because-

These eight or nine hundred soldiers were able to maintain strong morale, obey military orders, and attack the mountains in the rain under the desperate situation of the general fleeing. They were undoubtedly the real elite.

and.

Because of the torrential rain, the remaining archers have been completely useless, and are forced to draw out their weapons to fight the enemy to the death!

The three lines of defense in the east, west and south all erupted with the sound of fighting!
"Damn!"

Feng Quan was furious, drew out his magic sword, and beheaded two Loulan soldiers who were rushing into the battle in the rain: "The master and general have escaped, why are you still working so hard?"

Wei Xuan stared at the four fields, his sight had already been blocked by the dense rain, but he was not surprised but happy, he laughed:
"Don't be impatient."

"This sudden heavy rain is actually a great benefit to the Qingzhou Army."

"Our Qingzhou Army has strict discipline. Even if we fight on our own due to the heavy rain, the corps commanders, even the commanders, and even the commanders and hundred generals can use their own judgment to gather their troops and defend against the enemy."

talking room.

On the chaotic rainy night battlefield, a seriously injured junior military officer struggled to put on his armor. He went forward and took the initiative to organize wounded soldiers and civilians to form a small phalanx to resist the invading enemy.

All believe that:
As long as you can persist until the reinforcements arrive, you will win this battle!

…………

Stormy.

This battle has reached such a corrupt field today, there is no tactics at all, only blood and courage!
The only thing Qingzhou soldiers can do is to hold their weapons tightly and kill the invading enemy, or be killed by the enemy.

Fight!

Endless fighting!

Many Qingzhou soldiers had red spots and yellow spots on their bodies, and it was hard to tell whether it was blood, rain, or the smelly sludge on the ground.

But they have long ignored these things, because if they are a little careless, they will die a heroic sacrifice and die in this strange land in a foreign country.

Whether it is a wounded soldier, or military officers such as corporal chiefs and special chiefs, or those civilian husbands, they have already exhausted their physical strength and vitality, and they just clenched their teeth and persisted with their tenacious will.

Many people just killed a Loulan infantry, staggered and fell to the ground, and never woke up again.

It was also the most desperate moment!
From the foot of Maiji Mountain, there was a sudden roar:

"Qingzhou No.18 Battalion, Jiang Chen, come to help!"

The voice just fell.

A legion technique that contained the blood of two thousand soldiers——Taijiu Sword Technique suddenly turned into a colorful tiger and swept towards it!

"Roar!!!"

A tiger's roar full of primitive wildness suddenly swept across the forest, resounding in the ears of every Loulan soldier.

When hundreds of Loulan soldiers heard the sound, great fear shrouded their hearts, and their bodies trembled unconsciously.

"kill!"

"Those who kneel will not die!"

The No. 18 Battalion of the Qingzhou Army has a total of [-] soldiers. Led by Zhang Baisui, Feng Lebin and senior commanders, the troops were divided into three groups, and quickly rushed to kill all Loulan soldiers who dared to resist.

Facing the dense reinforcements, the morale of the Loulan soldiers finally collapsed completely, and they dropped their weapons one after another, turned around and fled.

Defeat like a mountain!
Beside the three Loulan commanders, there are only a few dozens of people left, but they are elites who have been trained by the capital for many years.

Still holding on to their final illusions, they gathered one after another to launch a final surprise attack in the direction of the great general Wei Xuan!

however.

The arrows of ordinary Qingzhou soldiers are afraid of rain, but after being promoted to the captain of the wilderness, Jiang Chen's archery power is far stronger than that of the wilderness Orion.

The bow is like a thunderbolt, and the arrows shoot in succession!
call out!
shhhhh!

Jiang Chen shot three arrows in succession. The sharp arrows precisely pierced through the caps of the three Loulan commanders, and their brains shot out.

this moment.

The last trace of resistance from the Loulan infantry finally collapsed!

"Down!"

"We are willing to surrender!"

The remaining soldiers spoke the vague Davidic language, dropped their weapons, and knelt on the spot, begging for the forgiveness of the heavenly kingdom.

"Win!"

Seeing this situation, all the surviving Qingzhou soldiers cheered loudly, and then cast their reverent and grateful eyes on Jiang Chen and the soldiers of the Eighteenth Battalion.

"what?"

Jiang Chen rode on the back of the old green bull, staring around.

Most of the Loulan soldiers cast fearful and disgusting gazes at this moment, but he endured these complex gazes, but he felt a strange feeling of stability and authenticity inexplicably.

The boiling qi and blood in the body gradually calmed down.

"Could it be..."

"They became my anchor too?"

Jiang Chen pondered for a while, and secretly guessed:
"Lieutenant Wilderness, the former represents the road, while the latter, as the name suggests, must be closely related to words such as army and war."

"That is to say."

"Will the enemy soldiers I defeated gradually transform into anchors that support vitality?"

"If that's the case, that's a huge plus, not having to put all your eggs in one basket."

Thinking of this.

Some ideas came to Jiang Chen's mind, and then he drove the old green cow up the mountain road quickly.

soon.

He entered a simple canopy and met General Wei Xuan.

Jiang Chen immediately clasped his fists, and solemnly gave a military salute: "The last general Jiang Chen, the rescue was half a step late, so that the Qingzhou Army suffered heavy losses, please forgive me, General."

Wei Xuan leaned on crutches, shook his head and smiled:

"What's the crime?"

"You worked tirelessly, led your troops to raid for more than a hundred miles a day, frightened the Loulan Hussar General, and killed three Loulan commanders. You have made such great achievements. You can be called the pillar of our Qingzhou Army!"

"When this battle is over, I will definitely ask the prime minister for your merits and formally confer you the title of captain of Qingzhou!"

Jiang Chen straightened his figure, with a grateful expression on his face:

"Thank you General."

Exactly at this time.

Feng Quan ran back and forth on Maiji Mountain in the heavy rain, and finally quickly counted the gains and losses on the battlefield, and said loudly:
"General, about 2000 Loulan remnants were recruited..."

After some detailed statistics.

Qingzhou Army:
430 five people died in the battle, 260 seven people were seriously injured, and the rest were slightly injured, and the civilian husband lost about 3000 people.

Such a huge loss has also brought about extremely brilliant results.

As for the Loulan Army:
About 200 soldiers were killed in Loulan, and about 2000 remnants were recruited. The remaining [-] soldiers either fled or disappeared, which can be counted as the result of the battle.

The four Loulan commanders were all killed.

Also.

Although only a few dozens of cavalry were beheaded, the mighty general of Loulan hussars raised Yunlang and fled without fighting, and all [-] cavalry fled.

Jiang Chen immediately said:

"Thanks to Zhang's favor, the No. 18 Battalion still has some medicinal materials, and the general is willing to hand them all in at the end."

A gleam of joy flashed between Wei Xuan's brows, and he nodded lightly and said:
"If the name is not right, the words will not go well. Now, I will temporarily appoint you as the temporary captain of Qingzhou No.18 Battalion to lead your troops."

Hear this.

Jiang Chen was overjoyed.

As the saying goes: "Only names and utensils cannot be faked by others!"

As a commander, he controls the 18 soldiers of the No. [-] Battalion in Qingzhou. After all, it is a big hidden danger. Over time, something will happen.

nowadays.

With these words from the General, I finally got my name right, and replaced the original Zhang Longxiang as the new leader of Qingzhou No.18 Battalion.

"call……"

Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and thanked him with fists together.

at this time.

Wei Xuan glanced at Feng Quan suddenly, and said:

"Call Zhang Baisui here."

"Yes, General."

After a while, the door curtain was lifted, Zhang Baisui changed into clean clothes, and walked into the awning calmly.

Feng Quan was also very knowledgeable and took the initiative to drive away the surrounding soldiers.

Wei Xuan's expression was heavy, and he spoke succinctly:

"My king received a secret letter that the envoys left Yumen Pass in the early morning three days ago, and will arrive in Dongli at noon the next day at most."

Jiang Chen's eyes darkened.

The prime minister, Sima Zhongda, has long been in cahoots with Luo Jiao, colluding with each other.

The envoys who came here this time are very likely, no, they will definitely give up the Loulan land that the Qingzhou Army has worked so hard to win.
Hand over the gateway to the vast Western Regions to Jiao Luo...

"General, the last general is willing to lead eighteen battalions of soldiers to attack the capital!" Jiang Chen did not want the fruit of victory to be stolen by Luo Jiao, so he called for battle immediately.

Wei Xuan shook his head and sighed:
"In the capital of Loulan, although one of the two quasi-sacred artifacts was destroyed by Your Excellency Lie Gong, the other quasi-sacred artifact also disintegrated on its own, trapping [-] soldiers from Qingzhou in the sand sea."

"But the five wolves of Loulan will still survive."

"In the Qingzhou Army, there is only one person who has the strength to defeat them, and that is the former Wusheng Sword Ghost, Zhang Baisui."

talking room.

Wei Xuan's eyes were shining brightly, staring at the former generals in the Liaodong battlefield, waiting for Zhang Baisui to ask for a job on his own initiative.

however.

As soon as Zhang Baisui opened his mouth, he said something that surprised Wei Xuan.

He smiled and said:
"General, times have changed."

"Now in the Qingzhou Army, I am not the only one who has the strength to defeat the five wolf generals of Loulan. Moreover, this person is in this canopy."

Wei Xuan was a little surprised, the vicissitudes of life in his eyes were faint like candlelight, falling on Jiang Chen's young and handsome face, he was silent for a while, then thoughtful:
"Lieutenant Jiang, do you mean that you have been promoted to the rank of general?"

With a calm expression, Jiang Chen clasped his fists and replied:
"Thanks to the general, it was a fluke."

Hear this.

There was a trace of surprise in Wei Xuan's eyes, and he said with burning eyes:
"Are you sure you can deal with the five wolf generals of Loulan?"

Jiang Chen pondered for a few breaths, then calmly said:
"Eighty percent sure."

Wei Xuan's eyes drooped, and he walked half a step closer, aware of the hidden lines, and immediately asked, "Where is the lack of [-]% certainty?"

Jiang Chen pondered in his heart, and responded:

"Mainly in two places."

"First, the weapon used by the last general is still a middle-grade sharp weapon, which is really unusable. Every time he bursts out with all his strength, cracks appear on the blade body. There is an urgent need for a high-grade weapon."

Wei Xuan nodded and said:

"Ordinary Qingzhou generals can use middle-grade sharp weapons, but those with excellent blood and martial skills can only withstand high-grade sharp weapons."

"That being the case, after the rain stops, I will lead the army back to the camp of the Western Expeditionary Army, dig out the warehouse, and find top-grade sharp weapons inside, for you to choose."

Jiang Chen thanked him and continued:

"Second point, the method I conceived requires a lot of yang energy to drive out one of the five wolf generals in Loulan. With only two thousand Qingzhou soldiers under his command, I was not [-]% sure."

Wei Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said immediately:
"Now is an emergency, and some rules and regulations do not need to be followed. The king immediately sent people to collect the corpses and select strong men from among the civilians."

In order to strengthen the control over military pawns, the kings of all dynasties required thirty or forty days of loyalty education after most of the military pawns were promoted.

but now--

no!

"A group of Qingzhou soldiers who have never been brainwashed."

"If troubled times come..."

Jiang Chen's mood was agitated, and he immediately gave a military salute, appearing extraordinarily loyal:
"The final general will fulfill his mission. Before the arrival of the envoys, kill the five wolf generals and present the head of King Loulan to Jiuding."

…………

After half an hour.

The rain gradually eased and the weather turned sunny.

Jiang Chen rode an old green ox and walked on the slope of Mount Maiji. Severed limbs and remains could be seen everywhere, and the blood soaked the soil. He thought to himself:
"In the coming year, this Maiji Mountain will definitely have fertile soil and lush vegetation."

Many civilian husbands were full of joy, and quickly collected a large number of corpses of Loulan soldiers. These materials will be used for their promotion to Qingzhou soldiers.

soon.

The Lord of the Five Hundreds, Feng Lebin, came back with his scouts and found out the surroundings. He said that about twelve miles away, there is a lush forest that can be used for the Qingyang ceremony.

everything's ready.

A large number of peasants were full of energy, carrying the corpses of Loulan soldiers hard, running through the starry night, and finally arrived at the forest twelve miles away after two hours.

Under Jiang Chen's command, the remains of 430 five Qingzhou soldiers and [-] Loulan soldiers were buried in the soil of tree roots.

In theory.

At most, more than [-] civilians can be successfully promoted to Qingzhou soldiers.

But in fact.

After the soldiers of Loulan returned to the sun, they must hate all living beings, and it is very possible to kill some civilians, which is very dangerous!
Jiang Chen thought for a while, and asked:

"Xiao Wu, Gongsun Hu, do you two have the confidence to go further?"

The two nodded.

They have followed the "boss" for several months, and have successfully digested all the medicinal properties in their bodies.

Jiang Chen showed approval, and said in a serious voice:

"Choose some veterans from the Eighteenth Battalion and let them be promoted to Qingzhou fighters together."

The good news is - there is a manuscript on deposit, tomorrow night at [-]:[-] words, and the day after tomorrow morning at [-]:[-] words!
