Wang Cheng looked at Qing Lei and felt unprecedentedly excited. His bloody horse was actually transforming into a Pegasus.
But it can't be called a Pegasus yet. Qing Lei's current state is the same as the dragon scale horse under Ning Hou's crotch, and it can also be called a "dragon scale horse".
Qing Lei snorted, rubbed his head on Wang Cheng's chest again and again, then opened his mouth and bit Wang Cheng's clothes, making Wang Cheng's body itchy.
"Go! Go! Go!"
He pushed Qing Lei's head away, and in a short while, his clothes got wet.
However, every time he pushed Qing Lei away, Qing Lei would rub his head again.
"Um?"
Wang Cheng was thoughtful, then took out a Qi and Blood Pill from his arms and stuffed it into Qing Lei's mouth.
After a Qi and Blood Pill entered his stomach, Qing Lei finally became much calmer.
"I'm really hungry!"
Wang Cheng smiled. He had heard someone from Ninghou Mansion mention that Ninghou's dragon-scaled horse did not eat grass and was usually fed with special medicine.
He immediately realized that from now on, Qing Lei would stop eating grass and take Qi and Blood Pills instead. How much expense would this cost?
Zhu Pengfei looked at this group of people with a look of shock on his face. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and stammered: "Brother Wang, what you just gave Qing Lei was a Qi and Blood Pill?"
Wang Cheng nodded and didn't try to hide it.
"Dear me! Brother Wang, this mount of yours is really amazing! It really wants to become a Pegasus!"
Zhu Pengfei was amazed and walked around Qing Lei Zai to look at him carefully.
Although he didn't notice the two bulges on Qing Lei's head, the tiny scales on his four hooves naturally couldn't be hidden from his eyes.
"Dragon scale horse! This has transformed into a dragon scale horse!"
Zhu Pengfei's face was full of envy. If the horse hadn't already had an owner, he would have wanted to ride Qing Lei away right now.
The dragon scale horse is no longer an extraordinary horse, it can be called a strange beast. If a horse with sweat and blood can only travel a thousand miles a day, a horse with dragon scales can still travel a thousand miles a day even if it carries a thousand kilograms of weight.
The two are very different, like two completely different species.
Many great warriors in ancient and modern times yearned for a dragon-scaled horse but could not get it. As a result, they were unable to use their full combat power, and were filled with regrets.
Zhu Pengfei suddenly changed his expression and said solemnly: "Brother Wang, try to show this horse as little as possible in the future, or cover it up with something to avoid falling into Xiao Xiao's hands."
Wang Cheng also knew the seriousness of this matter and said "thank you" to Zhu Pengfei.
This thank you is not only to thank Zhu Pengfei for reminding him, but also for protecting Qing Lei.
Qing Lei was specially locked up here, and it was Zhu Pengfei's instruction. Without his cover, how many people might know about Qing Lei's transformation into a dragon-scaled horse.
Wang Cheng thought for a while and did not take Qing Lei away immediately. Instead, he ordered the craftsman to give it a piece of armor.
To avoid further trouble in the future, Wang Cheng ordered the craftsmen to make the armor this time all made of metal, covering not only the horse's back and head, but also its legs.
In the past, he would not have dared to equip Qing Lei with hundreds of kilograms of armor, fearing that it would not be able to run far, but now he no longer had such worries.
After putting on the metal armor, he wouldn't have to worry about Qing Lei's safety when he charged again in the future. Ordinary crossbow arrows couldn't penetrate him at all.
The two then left the room and happened to see Zhu Bangguo leading a group of captains into the camp.
When Zhu Bangguo saw Wang Cheng, his eyes suddenly lit up and he laughed loudly: "Good boy! You are really an invincible cockroach. You recovered so quickly after suffering such a serious injury!"
Wang Cheng rubbed the back of his head out of habit and asked casually: "When did the general arrive?"
"Just arrived!"
Zhu Bangguo responded subconsciously, and then immediately realized that Wang Cheng did not mean this, and said: "It was the night when your boy led the troops to raid Yanzhou."
"So fast?" Wang Cheng was surprised.
Before that, he had always thought that Zhu Bangguo arrived a few days after they raided Yanzhou, because all the horses in the camp had been mobilized by them.
Zhu Bangguo smiled and said nothing.
On the other hand, Zhu Pengfei on the side came up to Wang Cheng and whispered a few words in his ear.
After Wang Cheng heard this, he raised his head and looked at Zhu Bangguo, and all the doubts in his heart were wiped away.
It turned out that the more than 3,000 horses that suddenly appeared under Zhu Bangguo were the ones lost by Lao Ma and his men in the horse farm, and all the more than 10,000 horses fell into the hands of the Western Army.
Wang Cheng opened his mouth but didn't say much. Of course he would not ask for these horses back for Lao Ma and others.
Because he cannot represent the entire Western Army. As for how General Song Huchen communicates with Lao Ma and others, this is Song Huchen's business.
Then, he noticed several people following Zhu Bangguo.
Although these people were dressed the same as ordinary soldiers, Wang Cheng still recognized them at a glance.
These people were not Zhu Bangguo's soldiers at all, but several captains who came from General Zhenxi and had a relationship with him.
Yes, Captain!
Wang Cheng immediately realized that General Zhenxi had sent reinforcements to support them.
After exchanging greetings with several captains, Zhu Bangguo led them into the big tent.
The seats have been set up in the tent, and they are all very simple little ones.
Wang Cheng and Zhu Pengfei, several captains affiliated with Zhu Bangguo, sat on the right, and several subsequent captains sat on the left.
Zhu Bangguo sat on the main seat and said straight to the point: "Without further ado, Ji County has now been taken back by our army, but Li Yuanqing will not leave Ji County alone, he will definitely send a large army to attack!"
He looked at the sitting Lieutenant Yi Gan, focusing his eyes mainly on the few people behind him, and said: "General Zhenxi has sent 15,000 troops to support our army. Counting the troops under my command, there are currently 20,000 in Ji County. Four thousand people.”
Suddenly, he changed the topic and said in a deep voice: "Maybe you think that 24,000 people are more than enough to guard a small Ji County. What I am going to say is that these people are not enough, far from enough!"
The expressions of the captains sitting below had different expressions. Some looked as calm as Wang Cheng, but more showed doubts on their faces.
At this time, Zhu Bangguo stood up from his seat, came to the map hanging behind him, pointed at the map and said: "Ji County has a complicated terrain. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides: east, south and north. It is just an open dustpan. To the west Opposite Luzhou of Xia Kingdom."
Immediately, he circled three places on the map with his finger and said: "There are 50,000 troops stationed in Luzhou, Yanzhou, and Pingzhou, all of which are under the command of Li Yuanqing. If he leads 50,000 horses to attack, We are hiding in Ji County and there is no danger to defend, so I am afraid it will be difficult to defend."
"Dad! Where are there 50,000 horses? Have you forgotten that in the battle a few days ago, Luzhou's 10,000 horses were killed by us and their armor was abandoned? Less than 30% of them returned alive. Even the Luzhou general He was killed by Brother Wang!" Zhu Pengfei said.
Zhu Bangguo naturally knew about this, and even the five captains who came to support him had heard about it.
But the impact of what is written on paper cannot be compared to what is said in person.
The five captains all looked at Wang Cheng, who was sitting in the first seat on the right, with mixed feelings in their hearts.
It hasn't even been a month since Wang Cheng joined the army, but he has made contributions that countless people can't achieve in a lifetime or even several lifetimes.
They saw that a star was rising, and it wouldn't be long.
Because whether it was capturing Ji County, defeating Luzhou's Ten Thousand Xia Army, or beheading General Luzhou, these were all great achievements, enough for him to be promoted to general, not to mention that he deserved to be the first of these major achievements.
"Of course I haven't forgotten it!"
Zhu Bangguo glared at Zhu Pengfei, and then said: "Not counting the 10,000 horses in Luzhou, Li Yuanqing still has 40,000 horses, and they are all cavalry. They come and go like the wind, and it is impossible to guard against him. No one knows whether he is here today or today. Raid on Ji County tomorrow."
After everyone listened, their faces gradually showed a solemn look.
If it were just ordinary infantry, they would naturally have nothing to fear, but if it were cavalry, they would really have to be careful.
Just like Zhu Bangguo said, the cavalry came too fast and might suddenly kill Ji County at night.
At this moment, a word broke the dull atmosphere.
"Li Yuanqing shouldn't be here for a while."
Everyone immediately followed the sound and found that the speaker was Wang Cheng sitting at the front.
"Why do you say that?" Zhu Bangguo asked.
Wang Cheng no longer concealed anything and said: "I cut off Li Yuanqing's arm, so he shouldn't lead his troops to attack in a short time."
After Zhu Bangguo heard this, his face suddenly froze.
Others' brains shut down, and it was like a bomb was dropped in their brains.
Li Yuanqing had his arm chopped off?
That's Xia's cavalry general!
He is also a famous grand master!
How could Wang Cheng, a samurai with no true energy, cut off an arm of the Grand Master?
The faces of the five new captains gradually showed doubts, expressing doubts about this matter.
Zhu Bangguo didn't think too much. He walked up to Wang Cheng, punched Wang Cheng in the chest, and said, "Good boy! You really keep bringing surprises to me!"
"Luckily!" Wang Cheng responded casually.
Zhu Bangguo didn't believe it, but he knew very well that when Wang Cheng was brought back by the Qinglei Hunchback, there was no intact place on his body, and he was a bloody man.
Therefore, when he heard from Wang Cheng that Li Yuanqing's arm was chopped off, he had no doubts at all.
Zhu Bangguo narrowed his eyes and said, "So, Li Yuanqing really won't be able to survive for a while."
An arm was cut off, and the injury alone would take many days to heal, even for the Grand Master.
In fact, this kind of injury is even more difficult for the Grand Master to maintain. If he loses an arm, his energy and blood flow will become incomplete. If not handled properly, he will easily fall into trouble.
"General, don't we have plenty of time to improve our defenses?"
The faces of several captains showed joy. Once the fortifications were built, they would really not be afraid.
Zhu Bangguo nodded and said: "That's right! At our speed, in five days at most, the defense of the entire western side of Ji County can be increased by more than three times."
Having said this, he walked quickly to the map, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he suddenly said excitedly: "Since we have so long, it is enough to build another city wall here!"
"Dad! There's no need to go to all this trouble. In my opinion, we should kill him while he's sick. Anyway, Li Yuanqing won't be able to kill him in a while, so why don't we go straight into his lair!"
