Chapter 137 Gold Mountain, Silver Mountain! Golden Nest, Silver Nest! Gold Pavilion, Silver Pavilion(?)

The next day.

early morning.

The imperial envoy general Wei Anguo finally selected the sergeants of the three battalions, all of whom were captains in the Qingzhou Army who were more loyal to the emperor, and...

Additional Captain Quan, Zhang Baisui.

[Note, temporary official positions are often preceded by the word "power".]

Two real Five Hundred Masters, Jiang Chen and Feng Lebin.

Over there in Dongli City.

After the battle at the city wall, Zhang Ying had recognized Jiang Chen's strength and was qualified to replace him who was seriously injured. He was appointed as the acting school captain and with a wave of his hand, he sent nine Qingzhou fighters to help out.

Among them is the senior general Fan Liangshan. Although he obtained his official position through mixed seniority, he also has more than twenty years of military experience.

The remaining eight people are also old friends who boarded the carriage with Jiang Chen to participate in the legal assessment.

besides.

Xiao Wu and Gongsun Hu, the two "old men" who had known Jiang Chen since they were young, also came with the nine Qingzhou fighters.

Plus Ruan Dashan and a thousand newly trained recruits.

This team of 1,000 people was basically completed.

To describe it in Jiang Chen’s words, it would be——

"They're all acquaintances!"

and.

Xiao Wu also sent a secret message from Zhang Ying:

"This strange and powerful ritual at the Gate of Hell has greatly changed war itself."

"The battle in Xili is either a quick victory or a quick defeat. No matter what, Jiang Chen, you must save your life!"

Jiang Chen sighed quietly.

"There are more variables than just the gates of hell..."

Actually.

There are two major variables in the upcoming Xili offensive and defensive battle.

One.

It is the legendary Gate of Hell.

Just an extremely dilapidated and crude ghost gate killed nearly five hundred Qingzhou soldiers in one breath.

So,

If Xili City is given enough preparation time, what kind of terrifying power will the relatively complete version of Guimen Pass burst out?

Jiang Chen didn't know what kind of methods Wei Anguo would use to fight against the ghost gate.

This matter is also one of the top secrets of the Qingzhou Army!

Second.

It’s the wild beast general—Wutugu!

If during a battle on the battlefield, Wu Tu Gu kills Wei Anguo in public, who has the fate of "subduing the dragon and subduing the tiger", the beast is superior to the man, and he will break through the shackles and step into the realm of Wuhou, unstoppable!

By then.

All the advantages accumulated by the Qingzhou Army will be wiped out in one day.

Maybe Jiang Chen can come back alive with various means.

But this newly built team of a thousand people, I am afraid that most of them will die in Xili, die in a foreign land, and their bones will not be left...

…………

School grounds.

Wei Anguo stood on the high platform and his tone was particularly passionate:

"Nine days ago, the general led the Qingzhou army to fight the Loulan army at night. In one battle, four thousand elite soldiers were killed, which greatly destroyed Loulan's prestige!"

"This battle has completely cut off their delusions of fighting in the field. The remaining 20,000 Loulan soldiers are all huddled in the capital. How cowardly are they?

Haha, I would like to give King Loulan a set of exquisite princess costumes.

If you hide in the capital all day long and don't dare to challenge, why should you be a king? You might as well be a princess."

at once.

The seven thousand Qingzhou soldiers in the audience burst into laughter.

Ruan Dashan on the side scratched his big head and thought back:

"Nine days ago, wasn't that the night when you went to the Painted World, Brother Jiang?"

Hear the words.

Jiang Chen also came to his senses. Wasn't this the night when he burned the horns and launched the "ritual: Fu Jiezi killed King Loulan"?

It was the man who burned the horns and killed the soul of Yan Wanquan, the ninth generation king of Loulan, that caused Loulan's national destiny to decline by a full 15% overnight.

Luck reflects reality.

The morale of Loulan's army declined greatly.

General Wei Xuan, who had experienced hundreds of battles, naturally discovered these fighters immediately and personally led the entire Qingzhou army to kill four thousand Loulan elites in one breath.

Loulan was so frightened that she hunkered down in the capital and completely gave up the idea of ​​fighting in the field.

therefore.

Only the imperial envoy Wei Anguo dared to withdraw his troops and launch the Battle of Xili in advance!

Jiang Chen felt funny in his heart:

"In a sense, this battle in Xili seems to have started because of me..."

…………

On the high platform.

Wei Anguo seemed to want no money and promised many rewards such as gold, silver, military merit, and beauties, which excited the hearts of many Qingzhou soldiers.

certainly.

It's not just words.

As an imperial envoy, Wei Anguo had already brought a large sum of gold and silver from Yujing City to reward the army. At this moment, he paid it off in one go.

The next moment!

One hundred and eight Qingzhou soldiers stepped to the high platform, carrying a large iron box on their shoulders.

Then.

At the same moment, many Qingzhou soldiers acted in unison and opened the mouth of the box.

Countless gold and silver poured down like waterfalls.

A dazzling array of things to see,

Extremely dazzling.

Gold mountain, silver mountain! Gold nest, silver nest! Gold bed, silver bed (?)

In front of many stunned Qingzhou soldiers, it suddenly became reality.

Wei Anguo laughed loudly like a bell:

"My promises are never empty words!"

"Come here, military judges, give money to the men of Qingzhou who are about to fight..."

More than a dozen military judges represented by Feng Quan, as well as some ordinary petty officials without official status, stepped out together, and distributed money according to each soldier's past performance and military rank.

"Get rich!"

The seven thousand Qingzhou soldiers were excited and had a common idea.

"Is there a departure fee..."

"To make soldiers willing to die, they should be given more money."

Jiang Chen chuckled lightly and took over fifty taels of gold and five hundred taels of silver from military judge Feng Quan, which were the highest-end items in the Five Hundred Lord level.

Personal debt has been successfully reduced to 21,880 taels!

Obviously.

This is Feng Quan showing his kindness to him.
To be continued...
