"Everyone in the world knows that I am going to raise an army of millions to defeat the Xu thieves. Want to enter Sichuan? You really think you are a dragon crossing the river."
Standing on the Panlong Platform of the palace, Chen Changqing felt high-spirited for a moment.
Yao recalled that year, he followed the young marquis to fight in the north and south. Because he vented his anger, he secretly massacred a small town, but was scolded and beaten by the young marquis.
He was dissatisfied. Those who conquer the world with the writings of sages and sages have great achievements. Just like now, he is so powerful that even the emperor of Daji dare not stand side by side with him.
"Your Majesty, if you don't say a few words, I will really think you are mute."
Next to him, Yuan An, wearing a dragon robe, looked uneasy.
"Dingnan Hou is loyal and brave to the country. This time he attacks the Xu bandits, he will return with a great victory."
"good."
Chen Changqing smiled slightly, paused, and suddenly turned into laughter.
The laughter was so sharp that it made Yuan An tremble and raise his hands to cover his ears.
…
During a trip to Bailu County, in addition to going to the Wei family's shipyard, I also took a look at Yu Wen's new army drills.
There were more than 2,000 people recruited from Fufeng City. Along with the long team transporting wood, each brought their own whistle sticks and farm tools, and wore ragged clothes, and hurriedly entered Bailu County.
"Total of the new troops should be 4,600."
Added together, there are only more than 40,000 people.
Xu Mu frowned and thought hard. After thinking about it for about half a cup of tea, and hearing the faint marching steps, he stood up in surprise and looked up at the city gate.
Jia Zhouzheng entered the city with a smile on his face, leaning on his wooden staff and feeling exhausted. Behind him, Fan Lu led more than two thousand wet old soldiers and also moved forward into the city.
"Military advisor!" Yu Wen and many other generals shouted one after another. Many soldiers also cheered together.
This poisonous eagle strategist had already won the morale of the army by resisting the enemy with three thousand men.
"Wenlong!" Xu Mu stepped into the rain, his voice filled with excitement.
"I feel guilty for making my lord worry."
"Wen Long has made great achievements, why do you say this?"
If Jia Zhou had not led three thousand people southward, this mess would have been even worse.
"Wenlong, let's drink a cup of hot tea."
Entering the pavilion, the elusive helmsman of Thirty States had already made hot tea, took the tea cup himself, poured a bowl, and placed it in front of Jia Zhou.
"Mr. Wenlong, there are not more than three people in the world who ask me, Li Zhiqiu, to pour tea..."
Xu Mu twitched his mouth. This line was so bad that it was so bad that it was used repeatedly.
After drinking a bowl of hot tea, the fatigue on Jia Zhou's face faded a little.
"While on the way, I heard from the people who were sent that Chen Changqing wanted to come across the river, claiming to have millions of soldiers and ten thousand warships to rebel against the lord."
Jia Zhou put down the tea cup and his face became solemn again.
"It is indeed a grand event for Captain Li to join forces with my lord. However, the enemy's force is strong, so we must be fully prepared."
The three people in the pavilion were silent for a moment.
Chen Changqing's millions of soldiers were like a mountain, weighing on the hearts of the three of them.
"I wonder if Mr. Wenlong has any clever ideas." Li Zhiqiu let out a breath and his voice suddenly dropped.
Xu Mu also turned his head and listened carefully to Jia Zhou's suggestion.
"When I came back, I was thinking all the way, could there be a surprise attack?"
"Qi Jun?"
Jia Zhou nodded, "We have little chance of winning in a head-on battle. Only a strange word can catch the enemy off guard."
"Mr. Wenlong's words are very kind." Li Zhiqiu's expression softened slightly.
Xu Mu also nodded slightly. Jia Zhou's words really hit the mark.
"I don't have a good countermeasure for how to make a surprise happen." Jia Zhou sighed.
Three cobblers are the best of Zhuge Liang. It's a pity that even if Marquis Wu comes to borrow the east wind in person, there is probably nothing he can do.
Xu Mu stretched out his hand and poured another cup of tea for Jia Zhou.
"Wen Long, don't be anxious. Why don't you go and rest first? I'll discuss it later."
After marching all the way back to Bailu County, Jia Zhou was probably exhausted because of his frail body.
"My lord, Captain Li, you can form a team of water ghosts. As dead warriors, they will have miraculous effects on water battles."
Jia Zhou stood up staggeringly, bowed to Xu Mu and Li Zhiqiu, and dragged his exhausted body forward slowly.
The sight of struggling made Fan Lu hurriedly come over and steady his body.
"My little boss has gained a wise man in the world." Li Zhiqiu's voice was full of envy, but soon he regained his composure.
"As Mr. Wen Long said, there is no way for you and me to retreat from this battle."
Xu Mu nodded solemnly.
"Should you go or should I go with the water ghost thing?"
If you become a water ghost, you will most likely end up in a river to die.
"I'll go." Xu Mu said with difficulty.
…
The spring rain, which was as precious as oil, obviously didn't turn out any oil stars. The pattering rain covered the entire Bailu County with a thick layer of moisture.
After Yu Wen summoned the army, Xu Mu walked quietly into the rain. There was no umbrella, and the rain poured down from above my head until my whole body was wet.
"A water ghost?" An older soldier did not panic at all. He only hesitated for a while and then stepped out of the queue.
"Two hundred taels of pension——" Xu Mu's voice trembled. Under the general trend, an army of 200,000 people came across the river, and he had no choice.
As the coach, as the last military spirit, he can only stand here and worship the warriors.
"Listen to me, when I followed the young Marquis to attack Daji, I also became a water ghost and built a floating bridge on the moat. Look, I survived." The old pawn who came out said with a smile.
"General Xu, don't hesitate!" Another young man walked out with a voice like thunder, "We also know that General Xu is the one who will save the world."
"If a soldier doesn't die, he can fight like a feather." Another general came out with determination on his face.
"I was born in Xiangjiang, and I am just like a white stripe in the waves. Give me an awl and I can smash the boats in Muyunzhou."
"If you become familiar with the nature of water, will you have to be a disciple who touches snails for the rest of your life?"
"Count me in again. If I die unfortunately, I would like to ask all my colleagues to offer me three bowls of water and wine on the day of victory."
"General Xu, just look at it. I'm like a dragon on the Xiangjiang River. If you dare to cross the river and disturb the waves, you will definitely call the enemy troops. They will never come back."
…
Xu Mu held his head high, gritted his teeth, and looked at the five hundred people lined up in front of him.
"Get the wine!"
Yu Wen and others silently brought over a dozen wine jars.
The wine jar was swatted away, Xu Mu drew out his long sword, touched the blade and cut it, and blood rolled into the jar.
Five hundred people made the same move.
In this dirty world, in this dark world, there are thousands of heroes who, with their ambition to sacrifice their lives and forget about death, build city walls one after another.
His wife, children, fathers and elders are all behind the city wall.
"Xu Mu, worship the five hundred dragons in Bailu County. One day, the stability of Shuzhou and the peace of the world will be as you wish."
"Xu Mu knelt down and drank."
"Drink with General Xu——"
In the rain curtain, five hundred heroes, their faces flushed, raised their wine bowls, raised their heads and drank down the wine in one gulp.
