How could a man with such skill be the general of an army of 20,000 men?

Zeng Xing knew very well that even if his strength was at its peak, if he had to face off against Tang Feng, he would probably lose.

This is terrible.

You must know that the military force of a general is an important indicator of a general's rank.

Just like Ouyang Lixing, although he is known for his wisdom, in Fengqi Province, or even Mohe Province where Zeng Xing is located, who doesn't know that Ouyang Lixing's military force is also outstanding?

Otherwise, he should be a counselor and not be called a general.

With the martial arts of this kid in front of me...

If it's not a bandit, then it should be a young master from a big family. Only the power of a big family can cultivate such an outstanding young master.

And it is impossible for such people to have only 20,000 troops.

Often when big aristocratic families train their disciples, the emphasis is on training, and at the same time, it also coats the disciples with a layer of gold, so that they will have something to say when they are promoted to military ranks.

Therefore, when disciples like this come out, the family will definitely equip them with a powerful army, in order to allow them to gain merit while gaining experience.

Regardless of the current situation of Fengqi Province, Zeng Xing knew very well that it was not difficult to come up with an army of more than 100,000 people.

After all, the main city of Fengqi was only besieged at this moment, not attacked.

Moreover, the power of the great family extends throughout the entire empire, so they don't even notice the loss of Fengqi Province alone.

If Fengqi Province is to be lost, then at least he must find enough benefits for his family before it is lost.

For example, send out an excellent army, let the disciples win in defeat, and make achievements on local battlefields.

But these 20,000 people...

Zeng Xing looked back and then shook his head.

It’s hard to describe in one word.

Based on their performance at the moment when they were beaten to the point of confusion, they could not be called excellent.

With such a quality of troops and a commander with such a strong martial arts skills, no matter how unconventional it may be, such strange situations can only be found in bandit dens.

Thinking of this, Zeng Xing calmed down Tang Feng's strange behavior just now.

It is estimated that these two people also have a deep love between master and servant. The servant does not want the master's life to be threatened, but the master does not want to lose a good servant.

Isn't it because switching positions makes it easier for the other party?

Due to preconceptions, Zeng Xing was actually starting to make excuses for Tang Feng at this moment, and even the excuses he made were ones that he himself did not want to believe...

That Zhang Li, is he left-handed?

This thought suddenly came to mind, and Zeng Xing couldn't help but laugh.

How could he even think of such a ridiculous excuse?

But anyway.

Except for the confusion caused by the change of positions, Zeng Xing was able to find evidence that the other party was a bandit from other aspects.

So... so what if he is a bandit?

He was very aware of the urgency in the hearts of his own soldiers at the moment.

In fact, why didn't he?

General Huang Renhuang, that is a leader who can't get rid of the dirt in his eyes.

What happened last night was indeed due to their negligence, not only the soldiers, but also him, the general in charge.

He also didn't expect that someone would dare to sneak attack their camp in the middle of the night, and do so with such generosity that they knocked down all the guards on the warning circle.

Thinking about this matter really scared him.

If the assassin hadn't captured Mo He last night, but had directly attacked General Huang, I guess he could have done it now!

Their coach was assassinated, how could they, the lieutenants, get away with it?

What's more, there is General Li Guili behind.

Zeng Xing was different from other generals in that he and Huang Ren were of the same mind, so in previous conflicts, he often stood by Huang Ren's side and contributed.

It is conceivable that if Huang Ren falls and everyone here belongs to Li Gui, will his life be easy?

In this way, not to mention that the soldiers under his command wanted to make great contributions at this moment and make up for the losses of last night by making up for their mistakes, why didn't he do the same?

If we want to achieve meritorious service now, we are also preparing for General Huang's power to become more stable in the future, so it is imperative to expand his military strength.

Otherwise, if the military strength is not expanded enough, General Huang may have to argue with Li Gui, because it is not stable after all.

Therefore, in Zeng Xing's private heart, he very much hoped that he could accomplish something good this time and capture a large number of prisoners and take them back, so that he could have enough say in Tianhong City to silence Li Gui.

And he thought he was vigilant enough.

Starting from the head-on contact with the opponent, on the one hand he was testing the soldiers, and on the other hand he was testing the opponent's coach.

Both of these were in line with his expectations.

In fact, during this period of time, Zeng Xing had done this kind of thing frequently. The troops led by the boy opposite were no different from the prisoners he captured before.

They are all in a situation where they are strong on the outside but capable on the inside. Some of them are very strong, but most of them are below the level.

This kind of situation is difficult to happen in the regular army.

Everyone trains in the same military camp and receives the same teachings, so even if there is a difference in individual strength, it will not be huge.

In other words, during the training process, some people who are just here to get paid for the army but are not actually suitable to be soldiers will also be eliminated, leaving naturally a large force with similar strength.

This is one of them.

Secondly, the four major empires are all the same. When there is no war, they all train their armies assiduously. Among them, the training of the Xuanjia Empire is the most ruthless and the most difficult.

But in comparison, in fact, the four major empires attach great importance to soldier training, and even require soldiers to practice what they have learned until it becomes an instinct in the body.

Just like the Sword and Shield Hand.

In a normal battle, the sword-and-shielder is the defensive force at the front of the formation.

If the sword and shield players cannot raise their shields to resist the attack immediately when a crisis occurs, then the archers, spearmen, etc. behind the team will be greatly threatened.

In the regular army, it has become an instinct for sword and shield wielders to defend with their shields. At any time, as long as there is any disturbance or an order from the generals, they will form the strongest force in a very short period of time.

defense.

This is instinct and cannot be changed for a while.

The sword and shield bearer is just an example, other types of soldiers will also have similar instinctive reactions.

This is the result of hard training.

But after observing for a long time, Zeng Xing did not find any of the besieged soldiers to have such an instinctive reaction.
