Chapter 1160: Bull Riding Veteran
Zi Chen, who was stopped by the guards and rode on the back of the old cow, had doubts on his face and asked, "Is there something?"
The guard pointed not far away and said, "The conscription is over there!"
"Conscription? I didn't plan to conscript!"
The guard, who had a good attitude, immediately felt displeasure on his face when he heard this, and said: "A good man is not a soldier, and if he doesn't protect his family and defend the country, what's the use of living in the world!"
"Defend the homeland and defend the country? Is it going to be a war?"
"In the recent days, the Qin State has always harassed the people on my border, and His Majesty the Emperor has decided to recruit troops to attack Qin and save the people of the Tang State from fire and water!
"A good man should be loyal to the country and serve the country!" Zi Chen heard this and responded loudly.
"Okay, strong man, please!" Hearing this, the guard's attitude towards Zi Chen changed drastically, and he admired it very much.
Zi Chen rode the old ox and went to the conscription office. There are already a lot of people here, there are young masters in brocade, and there are also some mountain families, they have different identities and different backgrounds, but the look of loyalty to the country is the same.
When these people saw Zi Chen riding a bull coming, they were very curious, and they thought to themselves, could this person ride a bull to fight?
Sure enough, when Zi Chen walked to the recruiting office and explained his intentions, everyone was extremely stunned.
"Little brother, you're not kidding, are you?" a young officer looked at Zi Chen and smiled.
"Of course I'm not kidding, I want to defend my family and defend the country, and fight on a bull!" Zi Chen's words were sonorous and powerful.
There was a burst of laughter all around, but everyone looked at Zi Chen's eyes, but they were very admired, if everyone in Tang Guonan was like this, then the destruction of Qin State was just around the corner.
The young officer smiled: "It's naturally good that you have this heart, but it's the first time I've heard of riding a bull into battle." Moreover, the speed of the ox is slow, and it is okay to plow the land, but it is not possible to go into battle to kill the enemy. Otherwise, you will give us the oxen, and we will give you the money in silver, and when you go to the battlefield, we will give you a war horse that can fight!"
Hearing this, Lao Niu looked at the young officer, and there was already a thick disdain in his eyes, and at the same time he snorted at the young officer.
"Is your cow still very temperamental?" said the young officer, and the others laughed.
"Of course he has a temper, he is many times stronger than a war horse, but you say that he is not as good as a war horse, he is naturally angry!"
The conscription in the Otherworldly Continent is extremely boring, no more than conscription in other places, there will be people who give gifts, banquets, and oil and water. Here, conscription is to recruit loyal soldiers for the country, and some subsidies will be paid to soldiers in advance.
At this moment, the boring crowd, seeing Zi Chen riding a bull, as if they saw a living treasure, all gathered around.
The young officer asked again: "You said that your ox is stronger than a war horse, can that open our eyes?"
"yes, let's open our eyes, shall we?" said several other officers next to him.
"If I can prove it, then what good am I?" Zi Chen asked.
The young officer thought about it seriously, and then said with a smile: "If it can really be proved that your ox is stronger than the war horse in all aspects, then we will allow you to take the ox into battle, and give it twice the ration it deserves." ”
"Okay! You can pull a war horse!"
Soon, a war horse came over, and although this horse was very tall, it was obviously an old horse, and it was not enough to be back then. Obviously, this is considering that the opponent is a cow, and they have the intention to fight, but they are also trying to show fairness as much as possible.
Zi Chen looked at these officers again, and his favorability towards them was greatly improved, and sure enough, only in the army at the grassroots level could there be these lovely people.
The old horse was led by a soldier, but before he could reach the old cow, after being glared at by the old cow, he immediately collapsed to the ground, as if he had been frightened in some way, and trembled.
Such a scene made the faces of the other people around him change, and these young officers looked even more incredible.
Although it is an old horse, it came down from the battlefield after all, and I have seen many lives and deaths, and many owners have changed, and nothing else is bold. But when he was stared at by a cow, he was scared like this.
"How's it going?" Zi Chen asked, looking at the young officer.
The young officer put away his incredulous expression, shook his head and said: "Little brother, fighting on the front line is no better than others, there are many aspects that need to be considered, and being able to scare off the war horse does not prove anything." ”
Zi Chen nodded when he heard this, and said, "Then let's do it, I'll let this cow run a lap, and I don't have to try again." ”
Poor old cow, a dignified earth yuan powerhouse, has long been out of the ranks of demon beasts, as long as he holds his breath, he can destroy the so-called Qin State, but today he is used as a beast, and he has to look very hard.
"Go ahead, run around first!" Zi Chen glanced at Lao Niu and said.
"Moo!" the old bull roared, like a war horse, his front hooves raised high, and then he stepped on the ground and rushed forward.
"Boom!"
In this step, the earth trembled, and the figures of the people shook again and again, and they almost fell.
Under the stunned expressions of the crowd, the old cow rolled up a puff of smoke and dust and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"What speed is this?"
"Are you sure this is really a cow and not a leopard?"
Looking at the old cow who disappeared in the blink of an eye, everyone's expressions became extremely shocked.
Holding on to the table in front of him, the young officer did not fall, and he was also shocked by the speed of the old cow.
The smoke and dust swept away, the old cow came back again, the sound of hooves fell like a galloping horse, and after reaching Zi Chen's front at great speed, he stopped directly.
His pause was still with his front hooves raised high and then slammed to the ground.
The ground continued to tremble, and the old cow's front hooves stepped deep into the earth, and then the ground was centered on the place where the old cow's front hooves had stepped in, and a hole was cracked, which went straight ahead, and one spread to the feet of the young officer.
"Peng!" As the crack stopped, the table in front of the young officer exploded.
All around, there was a sudden dead silence.
The shocked expressions of the crowd have turned into horror!
"What's the matter, is my cow stronger than a war horse?" Zi Chen's voice woke up everyone who were in a state of horror.
"Strong, much stronger!"
"It can be called a god cow!"
The young officer nodded to the soldiers around him.
The young officer who spoke at the beginning came back to his senses, he looked at Zi Chen, and felt that this person was very extraordinary, so he said: "With this cow, you can decide the outcome of a small battle, it is really a pity to let you be a soldier, I appointed you as a centurion, presumably with this cow, you can also deal with some emergencies." ”
As soon as he came up, he became a centurion, and the eyes of the other people around him who looked at Zichen were full of envy, only envy and no jealousy, because they did not have a sacred cow.
Who knows, when Zi Chen heard this, he shook his head and said, "No, I don't want to be a commander, I just want to go into battle to kill the enemy, to be a pawn to kill the enemy!"
Zi Chen's words puzzled everyone, but undoubtedly, he won a lot of respectful eyes.
The young officer, who had already admired Zi Chen, also had admiration in his eyes when he looked at Zi Chen at this moment.
"My name is Chen Liu, and my little brother will register my name!" said the young officer.
"My name is Zi Chen!" In the mortal world, Zi Chen doesn't have any fame, so he doesn't worry about attracting onlookers after reporting his fame.
In this way, Zi Chen joined the Tang army and trained with the army.
With the foundation of a monk, Zi Chen learns very quickly, and every action is done very well, and because he has the same heart as Lao Niu, he is more powerful than some old cavalry controlling war horses.
During the training, Zi Chen was appreciated, and Chen Liu wanted to promote him to be a centurion many times, but Zi Chen refused.
Zi Chen is here to practice, to kill the enemy and understand the rules, so naturally he doesn't need to be an official.
After two months of training, Zichen's group was arranged to the front line.
The Qin State had already started the war ahead of schedule, and in just two months, the Tang State had already lost a lot of territory.
After half a month of rapid marching, this group of soldiers arrived at the front line, and after three days of rectification, the army of Qin State was killed.
......
The entire cavalry phalanx, the number of which exceeded 10,000, and the soldiers were all wearing battle armor, Zi Chen looked very inconspicuous. But the old cow under his crotch is really a highlight, and his position in the first row not only attracts the attention of the enemy, but even the other cavalry on his side are also frequently sideways.
Seeing someone riding a bull to fight, there was ridicule from the Qin State, asking if it was Tang Guo who had lost the battle again and again, and the war horse was dead, so he had no choice but to use the old cow to make up the number.
In the face of this ridicule, the soldiers of the Tang State did not respond, but sneered in their hearts. When you suffer from the old cow, you will know if there are no war horses in the Tang Kingdom. Compared to the old cow, what is the war horse?
A whining horn sounded, and Zi Chen's first battle after being a pawn began.
The old cow did not immediately rush forward, but followed the first row of war horses and marched together. Zi Chen was wearing the armor of an ordinary soldier, and he held a long knife in his hand that could be said to be of extremely poor quality, and he killed the enemy like this.
The perfect body was completely retracted by him, and Zi Chen became an ordinary person, who would be cut by the blade, but after being injured, he would recover faster than others.
The cavalry began to charge, and soon many of the first batch of compatriots fell, but Zi Chen rushed in with a sword. In addition to Zi Chen's bravery, Lao Niu did not fall in the face of various trips, which is also a major reason.
Zi Chen, who rushed into the enemy group, became a nightmare for the people of Qin......
In this battle, it was naturally the Tang State that won, and thousands of dead bodies were left on the battlefield.
Zi Chen was covered in blood, with more than a dozen scarred wounds on his body, and when the battle was over, he rode on the old cow, looking at the corpse on the ground, and was full of emotion.
Compared to the cruelty of a battle in the mortal world, what can the battle casualties in the world of monks be counted as?
In this battle, Zi Chen undoubtedly killed the most enemies, and he was eligible to be promoted, but he still refused.
Then, in the ensuing battle, he held the long knife with several openings, and rode the old ox to the forefront of killing the enemy.
When the two sides go to war, there are naturally winners and losers, but no matter how seriously Zi Chen is injured, he can always stay alive, which is almost a miracle for the Tang army.
As the battle continued, Zi Chen's heroic deeds gradually spread throughout the Tang Kingdom, and everyone knew that on the front line of the Tang Kingdom, there was a bull riding veteran who had made many military exploits for the Tang Kingdom.
If you don't die on the battlefield for a year, you can be called a veteran, not to mention that Zi Chen has been on the front line for three years.
