"This time is indeed different from the past. In the past, even if the Xiongnu invaded, it would only be a few thousand people. This time the Xiongnu suffered a serious winter disaster, and most of the tribe's cattle and sheep died. In order to obtain food, this time the Xiongnu gathered an army of 80,000, and Yanmen Pass There are less than 20,000 defenders. If your uncle hadn't been helped by the Meng family and his son, I'm afraid Yanmen Pass would have fallen by now."
"And that's not all I'm worried about. In recent years, Bingzhou has been under the control of my Li family and Wang family, and Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, has no power. But this time Ding Yuan recognized an adopted son from somewhere, named Lu Bu is so brave that no one can match him. The generals in the army have seen that no one can be his enemy. Before you came, Ding Yuan proposed to personally lead troops to support Yanmen Pass. He wanted to take advantage of this Xiongnu invasion to gain military power. If it really happened If Ding Yuan's plan succeeds, I'm afraid the power of my Li family in Bingzhou will plummet."
"Father, if this is just the case, don't worry. Misfortune depends on blessings. This time it seems unfavorable, but as long as our Li family operates properly, our Li family's power in Bingzhou can be further enhanced."
"My son, please tell me if you have any clever ideas."
"What my father is worried about is that Ding Yuan wants to rely on Lu Bu's force to forcefully demand military power in the name of supporting Yanmen Pass. But if we find someone who can suppress Lu Bu, we can reject Ding Yuan's personal leadership of the army and send troops on behalf of my Li family. Moreover, we can force Ding Yuan to give up part of his military power for the sake of fighting against the Xiongnu, thereby further damaging Ding Yuan's power and prestige in Bingzhou."
"But now I don't have anyone who can suppress Lu Bu, let alone suppress Lu Bu. Even someone who is on good terms with Lu Bu is hard to find."
"Father, don't worry. My subordinates, Xiong Kuo Hai and Xing Tian, are both as brave as any man. They are not inferior to Lu Bu."
"Oh, they are really so brave, how could I not know?"
"If father doesn't believe it, you can give Xiong Kuohai and Xing Tian a test. When I entered, I saw a big cauldron in the courtyard. Let them lift the cauldron to prove their bravery."
"Well, if it's true as you said, then I will remember your great contribution this time."
"Hahaha, don't worry, father, I will not let you down. Xingtian, Xiongkuohai, you two will lift the big cauldron in the courtyard."
"Xingtian, the vast sea takes command."
Xing Tian took a deep breath, grabbed the two cauldron ears with both hands, and exerted force on both arms, and the cauldron slowly rose. And Xiongkuohai lived up to his expectations and raised the cauldron. It is even easier than Xing Tian. After all, although Xing Tian will be more brave in the future, he is still young at this time, and Xiong Kuohai is already in his 20s this year, which is the peak period of a military general.
"Okay, Xingtian, the vast sea, you two are really my black rhinoceros."
"Xiang'er, today you have been recommended for merit, and I have promoted you to the rank of captain. Xing Tian and Xiong Kuohai will be appointed as Generals of Ya (i.e., commanders of other departments, in charge of thousands of people), and they will obey your orders."
"Thank you very much, father. I will lead an iron army for my father. However, I still have one thing I want to ask for."
"What's the matter? It's only your recommendation that counts today. As long as it's not too much, I promise you."
"My child hopes to join the reinforcements supporting Yanmen Pass."
"You really have thought about it. Do you know that the battlefield is cruel? Even the bravest person may be killed by a cold arrow."
"Father, don't worry, the eagle will always take off, not to mention how can you see the rainbow without going through wind and rain. Plus with Xing Tian and Xiong Kuohai taking care of each other, I don't expect anything big to happen."
"That's fine, Xing Tianxiong and Kuo Hai, you two must protect the young master's safety."
"Don't worry, sir. If anything happens to the young master, the general will definitely come to see you."
"You guys, please go down first. I'll have someone take you to the military camp to get familiar with your soldiers."
"No, the child takes orders."
Li Yang stared at Li Xiang's back for a long time, hahaha, it seems that there is a successor to my Li family!
"Ding, congratulations to the host for getting 8 summoning points, leaving 68 summoning points."
After a while, Li Xiang arrived at the military camp.
"Xingtian, go beat the drum and gather the soldiers."
Dong-dong-dong, drums were beating loudly, and soldiers gathered in front of the general platform one by one.
"I am Li Xiang, your new captain. All the generals in the audience can come together." But there was no answer below.
Li Xiang took a deep breath and shouted again, "Everyone in the audience can gather here!"
At this time, a majestic-looking middle-aged man came out and said, "Master Xiaowei, the three generals Jiang, Su, and Gao, as well as more than a dozen Dubo or Tun generals have not arrived yet."
"Xingtian, go and lead a group of soldiers to kidnap those people."
"Xingtian takes the order."
In the camp, a dozen men in armor were preparing a banquet with plenty of meat and fish.
"Brother Jiang, after all, the new school captain is the legitimate son of Master Biejia, and he is a member of the Li family. I'm afraid we won't be able to live with him if we don't give him face."
"Brother Gao, what's there to be afraid of? He's just an eleven or twelve-year-old boy. I'm afraid he came to the army just to get a layer of gold. What can he do to me? That boy is a member of the Li family. He joined the army at the age of eleven or twelve. I have been in the army for more than ten years, but I have only reached the position of general. How can that kid be so virtuous and capable?"
"You are so outrageous, how dare you talk nonsense about the captain?" I saw Xing Tianxiongjiu striding into the military tent with high spirits.
"Who are you who dares to break into the military tent?"
"I am Xing Tianshi, a general under the command of the new captain. You guys have not abided by military discipline. The captain specially ordered me to come and hold you until you are under the general's platform."
"Children are rampant, I'll take it as soon as you say it is, and leave quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless."
"Hahaha, then I want to see how merciless you are, how arrogant you are, watch your punches." Xing Tian knocked one person to the ground with a casual punch, and he couldn't get up again. Then he initially showed off the edge of the God of War, and Xing Tian easily took down more than a dozen of them.
