Chapter 110 Sending troops
"How many guards are available among the twenty-four guards now? Can you go to war?" Ma Jin asked with a serious look on his face.
"When you go back to your Majesty, there are only left and right Dragon Martial Guards, left and right Dragon Xiang Guards, left and right Yulin Guards, left and right Leopard Tao Guards, Shence Army, Xiaoguo Army, and Crane Control Army. There are a total of 299,200 people, waiting for His Majesty's will!"
"The left and right Longwu Guards, left and right Longxiang Guards and Guanhe Army were composed of the former 120,000 Yue Family Army, led by Tan Daoji, Wang Zhen'e, Li Bao, Li Cunxiao and Yue Yun respectively.
The left and right Yulin Guards and the left and right Baotao Guards are composed of 100,000 Anxi Army, led by Su Dingfang, Wang Zhongsi, Wei Gao and Zhang Xian.
The Shence Army consists of 12,000 Xuanjia Army, with Zhao Yun as the commander, and the Xiaoguo Army consists of 12,000 Beifu Army, with Niu Gao as the commander." Xie Xuan replied loudly.
"Very good!" Ma Jin nodded with satisfaction, pondered for a moment and said, "The Jialan Kingdom is more than tens of thousands of miles away from my Great Zhou Gods. Even if we send troops from Gods immediately, it will not be able to relieve our near thirst. I am afraid that when our army arrives, the Jialan Kingdom will no longer exist. What are the good suggestions do you have for all the ministers?"
"Your Majesty, I think you can mobilize troops in the southwest states nearby to support the Jialan Kingdom, to delay the offensive of the Yaoyue Dynasty and buy time for our main army!" Xie Xuan bowed and suggested.
"I am discussing it! As the saying goes, soldiers are the most important. I think we can mobilize the main force of Langzhou Guards nearby and be the vanguard troops. We will immediately go to Jialan Country!" Yue Fei also made a speech.
Ma Jin frowned slightly when he heard this. Although the Langzhou Guards are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, they are all ordinary soldiers. Is it really okay to let them deal with the beast soldiers of the Yaoyue Dynasty? Ma Jin was unsure and pondered for a long time before Ma Jin issued a solemn order:
"Xie Qing, immediately send Wang Qi, the general of Langzhou Guard, to let him all the main force of Langzhou Guards, and for the pioneer of our Great Zhou, enter Jialan Kingdom first and assist Jialan Kingdom in defending the royal city. To delay the time, tell Wang Qi to be cautious and not to make rash progress!"
"I received the order!" Xie Xuan bowed.
"In addition, I plan to form a southern camp, the resident Langzhou Prefecture, and its responsibility is to fully preside over the southern expeditions!" At this point, I paused and looked at everyone in the hall, and continued to say in a deep voice:
"Li Jing, deputy envoy of the Privy Council, was appointed as the general manager of the southern camp, and was in charge of military affairs in the southern prefectures. He led the left and right Longwu Guards, left and right Baotao Guards, Xiaoguo Army, and the Control He Army to Zhenlangzhou to preside over the war against the Yaoyue Dynasty!"
"I, receive the order!" Li Jing immediately stepped out of the order and knelt down and kowtowed.
"Li Qing, I am handing over the Sumeru Rings in the mountains and seas to you again. This Sumeru Ring is a magic weapon in space, with infinite space. When you march, you can put all the weapons, armor and food into it, and you can go into battle lightly and rush to Langzhou as soon as possible!"
After a while, Li Jing thought about it and knew how helpful this Sumeru Ring would be to the army. He couldn't help but show a hint of joy. With the help of such treasures, he would no longer be afraid of the food road being robbed. He could bring more heavy weapons and gain greater confidence in the battle against the Yaoyue Dynasty.
"I, thank your Majesty for your kindness!" Li Jing hurriedly kowtowed.
"Li Qing, let's calm down. The military situation is like a fire. You can prepare now. When the preparation is done, you can leave immediately!"
"I, receive the order!" After Li Jing bowed again, he hurriedly left with several generals who were accompanying the war.
After Li Jing and the others left, Ma Jin ordered Xie Xuan again: "Xie Qing, go to the cabinet immediately to pass on my order, and ask the Ministry of Revenue to immediately allocate the money and food required by the army for at least one year, and give it to Li Jing's troops. The more you have, the better!"
"I, please accept the order!" Xie Xuan also hurried away after saluting.
"Yue Qing, now you go to the inner court military weapon supervisor to issue an order, and ask the military weapon supervisor to allocate one thousand eight-ox crossbows and ten thousand thunder and fire pots... No, 20,000 are handed over to Li Jing!"
"My minister, receive the order!"
"Meng Qing!" After giving Yue Fei instructions, Ma Jin said to Meng Tian again.
"I am here!" Hearing Ma Jin's call, Meng Tian hurriedly went out to salute.
"I have appointed you as the chief general of the Northwest Road marching and the chief general of Bingzhou, and lead the main force of the Zuobaotao Guard to the northwest border to monitor the Liao Kingdom in case of an accident!"
"My minister, receive the order!"
...
Southwest of the Great Zhou Dynasty, in the General's Mansion of Langzhou City.
In the conference hall, Langzhou Guard General Wang Qi sat upright in the middle hall with a serious expression, and the twenty-three lieutenants of the Langzhou Guard Mansion also gathered together, each with helmets and armor on both sides of the lobby.
"General, I wonder if you summoned your subordinates... what kind of war happened?" A middle-aged general led on the right bowed to Wang Qi and asked. This person was Lan Xin, the deputy commander of Langzhou Guards and the commander of Lanshan County.
Wang Qi turned his head and saw that it was Lan Xin, and his face suddenly eased a lot. Lan Xin's daughter was chosen by the Holy Emperor and was converted into the palace as a concubine. It is well-known in Langzhou, so Wang Qi naturally took a high look.
Wang Qi coughed lightly, looked around at the commanders and generals in the hall, and said seriously:
"I guess someone must have heard of it when you entered the city. The delegation from Jialan Kingdom suddenly arrived in our Langzhou City these days."
"Jialan Kingdom Mission? But now is not the day to pay homage. What are they sending a mission to my Great Zhou?" another general asked in confusion.
"Of course, it was not to see my Great Zhou Emperor, but to ask for help." At this time, Wang Qi's expression became solemn again. Before the generals could ask again, he continued:
"The Jialan Kingdom brings a news that a powerful alien country in the southern region, I don't know what method I used to suddenly cross the Endless Mang Mountain in the Realm and break into the Jialan Kingdom's territory. Now I'm almost fighting to their royal city."
"Not only Jialan Kingdom, but also more than ten countries around Jialan Kingdom were tragically affected, and the people in the country were slaughtered by foreign races!" At the end, Wang Qi's tone became low. Although his country belonged to different countries, he was a human race. He couldn't help but sigh and angry when he heard that they were slaughtered by foreign races.
"What? How dare these alien races..." The generals present were uproared and their faces became cold.
"General, what the court means..." Lan Xin also looked at Wang Qi with a pale face and asked.
"Of course we are sending troops to attack!" Wang Qi said with a look of evil spirit.
"All the generals obey the order!" Wang Qi shouted loudly when he said this.
"Here!" The generals in the hall stood up and bowed to the order.
"According to the will of the Holy Emperor, our Langzhou Guards entered the Jialan Kingdom first and assisted Jialan Kingdom in defending Jialan King City!"
"promise!"
"Military information is urgent, the court asked us to send troops immediately and go! Go to the schoolyard!"
As he said that, he left the meeting hall first and headed towards the school grounds, and the generals hurriedly followed closely...
...
On the field of Langzhou Wei University, the battle flag was fierce and fluttering in the wind, and tens of thousands of troops were waiting for the battle.
As the saying goes, "A person exceeds ten thousand, and there is no boundary." I saw a neatly arranged on the campus of the university, with thousands of people in a row, with iron armor, helmets and tassels like a forest, and flags covering the sky, as if they were out of sight, with evil spirits spreading and terrifying.
The envoy of Jialan Kingdom, Princess Jialan and General Ning Yue, also arrived at the school ground early, but their faces were a little pale now, and they were really shocked by the murderous aura of the school ground.
Princess Jialan looked at the Langzhou Guard soldiers standing in a solemn voice with murderous look on their faces, and said to Ning Yue: "Sister Ning, is this the most elite army in the Great Zhou Dynasty? It makes you scared.
Ning Yue looked at the army in front of her with a solemn expression. She was also shocked by the Dingsheng army of Langzhou Guards. When she heard Princess Jialan's words, her face was stunned and said in a mixed mood: "No, they are just local guards in the Great Zhou, which is similar to the county soldiers in our country."
"Ah? Then why do they look even stronger than the most elite army in our Jialan Kingdom?" Princess Jialan couldn't help but say in surprise when she heard that the troops in front of her were just local troops of the Great Zhou.
Not only is it powerful, in Ning Yue's opinion, even the army of the Yaoyue Dynasty she had seen was somewhat inferior, let alone the army of their Jialan Kingdom.
What surprised Ning Yue even more was that these Langzhou Guard soldiers were all burly and majestic, almost approaching seven feet tall, and were all wearing heavy iron armor that looked very well-equipped, covered with faces, holding steel guns, and long swords on their waists. They were simply armed to their teeth.
Ning Yue secretly smacked her tongue. Could it be that Dazhou is already so rich? Even ordinary local soldiers are armed to this level? Do you have money and have no place to spend it?
When she came just now, she was still a little worried about the combat effectiveness of these Great Zhou local guards, but now that concern has long been thrown out of the sky by her and she has become full of confidence. With the joining of these new forces, I believe that the pressure on their Jialan Kingdom will be greatly reduced and will not be destroyed.
Just then, a sound of horse hooves suddenly came, and dozens of horsemen galloped towards the platform like a whirlwind. It was Wang Qi and a group of generals.
When Wang Qi led his generals to the school reading stand, the school ground became quiet. Only Wang Qi's footsteps, the clanging sound of iron armor, and occasionally war horses neighed, and were immediately comforted by the cavalry.
"A few days ago, the Jialan Kingdom delegation came to our Langzhou City and brought me a message that a large army of aliens in the southern region crossed the endless Mangshan Mountains and came to our human land. In a few months, it destroyed more than a dozen countries in our eastern region. All the people of all countries were slaughtered by these, causing the death of millions of our human races. It is unbearable to kill our human race and plunder the territory of our eastern region."
"Those aliens regard our human race as food on the plate and as slaves, and kill them if they want to. What should we do?
Since these aliens dare to provoke the majesty of our human race, then we will defeat them, destroy them, kill them all, and fight for tooth! Fight for blood!"
Wang Qi's high voice echoed over the school field, and tens of thousands of soldiers on the school field were also infected by Wang Qi's passionate declaration. Under the surging surging, many soldiers repeated silently in their hearts, and then muttered and whispered, until at the end, tens of thousands of soldiers shouted in unison, "Defeat them, destroy them, and kill them all", "For tooth for tooth! For blood for blood!"
At this moment, I don’t know who started to start the song suddenly remembered:
The imperial wind in all seas is clear, and the virtue of thousands of years is clear;
Not to mention military uniforms, today we have achieved success.
Looking back at the border, I was as low as a horse, and I saw rivers flowing eastward.
The power of heaven swept across the world, and the barbarians across the world were filled with the sound of the world!
The imperial wind in all seas is clear, and the virtue of thousands of years is clear;
Not to mention the military uniform, today I am successful.
The lord is the sage who opens the Chang calendar, and the minister is loyal and dedicated to the great plan;
After the rebellion, it will be peaceful autumn!
The passionate and generous voices of tens of thousands of people echoed in Langzhou City like a sea of rushing mountains and seas, and even the bitter west wind that was whistling in the sky was suppressed.
The passionate and generous singing made Princess Jialan and Ning Yue feel excited and unable to control themselves. Ning Yue's eyes were even more brilliant, and she murmured unconsciously: "This is the Great Zhou! This is the Supreme Kingdom of the Heavenly Kingdom!"
After singing, Wang Qi raised his spear and shouted loudly in the fierce west wind.
"send troops!"
For a moment, the horn sounded loudly. The cavalry battalion of the Langzhou Guard Central Army took the lead in galloping out of the schoolyard. Then the Langzhou Guard Infantry Army stepped on neat steps and stepped on the solid ground of the schoolyard. The heavy steps were like a giant dragon whispering, and their power was unbearable, which made people feel excited.
At this time, Wang Qi rode a horse to Princess Jialan and others, and said with a fist:
"Your Highness, my Langzhou Guard Army is about to set off now. I wonder if you will follow us to return to Jialan King City or continue to go to Shendu?"
Princess Jialan and Ning Yue looked at each other and heard Princess Jialan say solemnly:
"I will go back to Jialan King City with you. Jialan Kingdom is my motherland. I can't watch the people of Jialan suffer and suffer, but stay in the Great Zhou territory with peace of mind. I want to join my mother and the people to resist the demons of Yaoyue Kingdom!" He said at the end of his speech, looking firmly at Wang Qi.
Wang Qi smiled a little, nodded in praise, and then left.
...
Jialan King City,
At this time, the sky of the royal city was gray and tiny raindrops were sparsely falling. The lightning kept flashing among the clouds, making a roar from time to time.
The city tower of Jialan King City was already in ruins. An hour ago, there had just been a life-and-death battle here.
A gust of dark wind blew slowly over the battlements of the royal city, covering the faint whisper of pain under the wall.
Xuan Jianshan was wearing armor and patrolled the city tower, and occasionally crossed the weapons and dead bodies scattered all over the ground.
Under the eaves of the city tower, many people were sitting or lying, their eyes were dull, their helmets had already been taken off, their blood-stained hair, and their broken armor was stained with blood.
It has been ten days, and the army of the Yaoyue Dynasty has been attacking for ten days in a row. They have been holding on the city tower for ten days and repelled dozens of attacks from the Yaoyue Dynasty beast soldiers, but the Yaoyue beast soldiers under the city showed no sign of retreating.
Now they may have only two endings, either the Jialan King City is captured and the entire royal city is slaughtered, or they can persist until the arrival of the army sent by the Great Zhou. As for the ending, it can only depend on God's will...
