Under the anxious and eager gazes of the officials of Yan State, King Yan suddenly stopped and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something.
As a result, I couldn't utter a single word.
At this moment, every minute and second seemed extremely long - a moment later, or a whole year later, Yan Wang Ji Shi's chest deflated, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth, and then his face was like gold paper, Immediately fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" The palace was in chaos.
"Your Majesty! Wake up quickly, Your Majesty..."
The imperial doctor ran quickly, and the ministers in the palace and the warriors outside the palace were in chaos. Screams, exclamations, and footsteps mixed together to create chaos.
Until the second before King Yan's eyes fell into darkness, he was still thinking hard——
Le Yi, where has my Le Yi gone?
impossible! There's no way he's defecting!
…
Quyang County is full of joy.
A sudden battle allowed every new soldier who participated in the battle to gain plenty of trophies and military honors.
Throughout the Battle of Jimo, Quyang's new army only stayed on the periphery and did not undertake the task of charging into the battle. And in the face of the attack of the defeated troops, they gave way to a road, so the casualties were minimal.
On the other hand, the loot brought back was extremely rich!
The spoils left by the 200,000 Yan troops were almost monopolized by the 10,000 Quyang new troops.
It is said that since the 200,000 Yan troops entered the territory of Qi, they looted and looted along the way for two years... The property carried by each Yan soldier was not a small amount, and now they all took advantage of the Chu people.
Xiong Wuliang was not interested in these items, and had no intention of returning them to Qi Ren.
Simply let the soldiers go.
As a result, all the officers and soldiers of the three armies are extremely rich and full of joy!
The shop became more lively than ever - the soldiers returning home from vacation carried large and small packages of copperware and sold them in the shop.
The businessmen seemed to have been beaten to death, and they were buying like crazy...
"I have a copper pot here. How much do you think I can sell it for?"
"I'll sell you a few bundles of broken paintings and a few iron swords together..."
With comfortable smiles on their faces, the merchants swallowed huge amounts of loot at prices slightly lower than the market price. The soldiers got the cash and went straight to various markets, either to buy some wine and meat, or to grab three or five bundles of cloth, intending to take it back to make new clothes for their mother-in-law...
With a wave of his hand, Shaohu gave all the 10,000 Quyang New Army troops a ten-day holiday.
Groups of sergeants carried large and small bags and returned home in small groups, talking and laughing all the way, attracting the envy of countless people.
"Isn't this the second boy from the west of the village... taking things home again?" Old man Qu squatting at the end of the village said with a wide smile.
A young sergeant smiled, nodded, and said hello.
Old man Qu's face blossomed with joy, and he looked at the young sergeant with envy in his eyes: "Tsk, tsk, I'd better serve as a soldier and fight with the prince!"
"Every time I go out to fight, I always come back with a full load..."
"Speaking of which, it's time for you to get a wife... I heard that our young master is going to get a wife!"
All the sergeants looked at each other and laughed.
The news that Xiong Wuliang was engaged to the princess of Qin was not a secret, and such news often spread very quickly in the army... The sergeants liked to exchange these gossips for fun after fighting.
Unexpectedly, the news spread so quickly, and even the old man at the head of the village knew about it - probably everyone in the entire fiefdom knew about it.
Too.
It has been several years since the young master ascended the throne. He has never had a decent wife, let alone an heir... which has made many farmers worried for a while——
Our little master... shouldn't it be possible?
It is said that since the time when the young master took over the title, the life in the fiefdom has become more and more prosperous - he is well fed and clothed warmly, the crops in the fields are getting more and more, and after he is done with the farm work, he can still work in the factory to earn money. Subsidize household expenses.
Even the most ordinary farmer can go to the market every now and then to cut two pieces of meat and buy a pot of wine.
In this troubled world, this is simply a magical day.
With such a lord, who wouldn’t hope that he will be a prince for generations to come? The young master has never had an heir, which makes everyone have trouble sleeping - for fear that one day the young master will have an accident, and the four county fiefdoms will be taken back by Yingdu...
The wifeless young sergeant smiled awkwardly, smiled at the old man, and wisely changed the subject: "Your boy is not bad either - although he is not a soldier, I heard that he is also doing well in the academy. The water rises..."
Old Man Qu sighed: "What's the use of studying well? Those who graduated from the academy have all become officials, and each of them can only earn a small salary. No one can make any money, let alone subsidize their families..."
All the sergeants looked at each other and smiled: "Then the officials from the Institute of Science and Technology are very honest."
It's the same - the young master is carrying out drastic reforms in the fiefdom, and chopped off the heads of a large number of children from aristocratic families by the Huaihe River... Who else dares to be greedy?
Old Man Qu sighed, still a little greedy for the trophies carried by the sergeants, but he was relieved: "Yes, it is much better than the old people sticking their butts out to serve the crops..."
…
Smoke curled up from the kitchens in the four counties' fiefdoms, and laughter and laughter continued.
Only the sergeants of the Knight Cavalry Army were so jealous that their eyes turned red and they couldn't stop gossiping: "After all, my young master still prefers the Quyang New Army. He will take them with him to the war, but not us..."
"It's better to have Quyang's new army! They can get trophies! They can get military exploits!"
"I don't know when our 'valiant cavalry' will be able to set foot on the battlefield..."
Although they said it sourly, the sergeants of the Knight Cavalry Army were still very proud.
After the master's "little plan", the knight's riding skills really improved by leaps and bounds - rolling around on horseback, slashing, stabbing, releasing arrows, sprinting... a series of tactical actions can be performed fluently and skillfully.
The heroic cavalry army is making rapid progress, Ge Su Yi is so happy that he can't smile from ear to ear.
After passing the technical qualifications, the Hu instructors began to teach various cavalry tactics - basic tactics such as insertion, encirclement, and vehicle suspension, which could also be used flexibly on these Chu riders whose riding skills were greatly improved.
Blanch——
I have been practicing riding skills for many years, but now I have been perfectly replaced by a set of saddle and harness...
Ge Suyi was filled with emotion and admired Xiong Wuliang's intelligence even more.
According to Ge Suyi's comments - the current combat power of this heroic cavalry army, with the help of external objects, can reach an extremely high level, at least not inferior to the most powerful cavalry from Qin, Zhao and other countries.
The equipment of the Qiaoqi Army has been replaced several times, and now it has basically stabilized——
The sergeant wears a set of leather armor with an iron breastplate on top - to ensure strong defense while minimizing weight.
The heavy infantrymen of the Quyang New Army were wearing full-body armor. Although such armor was powerful, it was too heavy for their horses to run for a long distance. The soldiers of the Knight Cavalry Army were only equipped with iron breastplates, and their limbs were left to their inner armor. Wear lightweight leather armor for protection.
In terms of weapons, there is a fine iron dagger, a kite-shaped wooden shield, a wooden repeating crossbow, and a hundred arrows.
The number of arrows carried is terrifying - ten thousand knights, each carrying one hundred arrows, is equivalent to a total of one million arrows!
The firepower is endless.
The Knights also have unique attack methods! The difference from most contemporary cavalry is——
