Yan Xu's face changed suddenly, the fire dragon mark that had become weak was as if it had been electrified, and a poisonous dragon drill made Yan Xu, who was caught off guard, almost not clamped, and the blade was about to touch his heart, and he was almost stabbed in the heart.

The extremely fast rotating fire dragon mark and Yan Xu's palm grinded out amazing sparks, and it felt like a bear child who didn't know whether to live or die was holding a lit firework in his hand.

The copper flesh and blood couldn't withstand this kind of attack that was almost half injured, and as the fire dragon mark gradually became thinner, Yan Xu's palm was also worn out, and in the end, even white bones were exposed.

However, Yan Xu's bitterness was not in vain, he had the power to control the hardware, and with the flesh and blood as a medium, he infiltrated into the seriously damaged fire dragon standard, and was fighting with the flame martial soul for the control of the fire dragon standard.

Maybe it's the last obsession left by the Red Armor General, the flame martial soul who was originally just simply carrying out the order actually integrated itself into the fire dragon standard, is this considered self-sacrifice!?

The Yan Iron, which was the main material, began to collapse, and more and more cracks appeared on it, and the little black flames that broke free from the cracks made Yan Xu shudder, desperately controlling the broken Yan Iron to cover his hands with almost only white bones, resisting the terrifying high temperature that could incinerate the iron and stone.

But Yan Xu didn't expect that this fire dragon mark was made by fusing an extremely rare leyline flame snake with underground flame iron, and it could originally become a magic weapon, but the refiner's cultivation was insufficient, and he couldn't wipe out the spirit of the leyline flame snake that was closely fused with the underground flame iron, and in the end, in order to prevent it from being counterattacked, he could only refine it into a top-notch magic weapon.

But with the sacrifice of the Flame Martial Soul, the Earth Vein Flame Snake actually broke free from the restrictions of the heavy seals and turned into a monster similar to an elemental creature, winding Yan Xu layer by layer in the underground flames and calcining.

Fortunately, the bronze man's transformation covered every inch of the place, coupled with the blessing of Dacheng's golden bell jar and the power of the leyline, Yan Xu held on, and because of the battle and injury, the witch bloodline became active, and the flame iron that was integrated into the body in line with the attributes became the last additive, and the witch bloodline actually began to devour the leyline flame snake in turn.

The leyline flame snake that had no sanity and only instinct was originally rootless, and it couldn't resist the devouring of the witch bloodline that was higher than it, and it couldn't even break away, and was forcibly sealed into the witch bloodline.

When the flames dissipated, Yan Xu's golden light flashed like an Arhat had descended, and there was a fiery red strange snake wrapped around his body, which added a bit of sacredness and made the Liangshan soldiers who were facing him tremble.

When Yan Xu took a step, Liang Shanbing finally couldn't bear the pressure, let out a shout, and immediately scattered, and collapsed without a fight.

Putting on the robes taken off by the soldiers, Yan Xu calmly returned to the county seat and accepted the cheers of the soldiers and civilians, of course, except for these people who didn't know the details, the people above knew that this was just the beginning, but for the sake of morale, no one said much, and they all cooperated to boost morale, so as to accept the upcoming harsher test.

"Master Kamui! At a young age, he cultivated the golden body of an Arhat, killed the thief general, subdued the evil Jiao, and saved the world, which is really a great merit! "The county commander doesn't know martial arts, nor does he know spells, but under heavy protection, he still saw Yan Xu's majesty of subduing Huojiao on the city wall, and immediately admired his vision, and he actually took a fancy to this reincarnated living Buddha at a glance among everyone, plus the huge military exploits that had been obtained, it was inevitable that he would be excited.

"The county commander has passed the award, and his cultivation in the lower Dharma is insufficient, but he has sealed this evil Jiao in himself, and he still needs to retreat and practice to completely subdue it. This application for assistance still needs to bother the county magistrate, after all, Liangshan will not give up easily, these assistance is related to the safety of the people of a county, and the county magistrate needs to bear it. "It's beautiful, in fact, Yan Xu gave him the opportunity to ask for merit this time, which means that how to write it is for you to look at it, I have no opinion and I will not participate.

Yan Xu does not have any thirst for merit, the ultimate goal is different, and as long as Liangshan does not destroy this military merit, his own share is indispensable, not to mention that his identity as a monk is not afraid that they will regard themselves as political enemies, it is better to hand over this matter to this county order to deal with, firstly, the other party is better at it, and secondly, it is also a personal favor.

"The master has a deep foundation, and he will definitely be able to subdue this evil Jiao, and leave some miscellaneous matters to this official!" The county order is really happy, but he is also a person with cultivation and status, and he still keeps smiling, but his tone can't help but reveal great joy.

"This time I was able to extinguish the prestige of Liangshan, the master and several generals have also worked hard, and I want to come to the imperial court will not treat you badly, and I will definitely reward you generously, and the high-ranking officials will be just around the corner." The county magistrate also expressed his attitude here, which means that not only you, but even those people under you have merit, and everyone will be promoted and make a fortune together.

Yan Xu is playing a high-ranking monk, so naturally he won't bother with this kind of thing, and he will go back to retreat after chatting a few words. And the county magistrate also called his cronies, explained everything clearly, and instructed the master to take care of it, and then trotted all the way back to the study to think about how to write this recital.

It is a chapter, if such a great work is handed over to Tong Guanshao, it must not be scraped off the eighth layer, so the county order is directly played to the imperial court, and it is past Tong Guan, the main general of the army of thieves.

This kind of thing can only be done by civil officials who don't take eunuchs in their eyes and don't do it right, and they can do it without trouble. If Yan Xu writes, it is estimated that he can prepare for the future, even if it is clear that he has to rely on you to defeat the thief army, he would rather fail all the way than kill you, this is a matter of principle.

Sure enough, Tong Guan knew that this piece of music was sent here, but even if he knew, he was helpless. Now it is still a civil official, and even the emperor needs to rely on eunuchs to fight for some power, so this credit was transferred in the hands of the ministers of the imperial court, and it was added to the five layers of distribution.

The emperor is also willing, no one likes to hear the news of the defeat all the time, this is the first time to win the battle, how can you do it without a generous reward. even used the private treasury to reward, and ordered that the detained Liangshan prisoners be escorted back to Beijing to relieve their anger.

Fortunately, the county order was not really dizzy, and he carried Tong Guan with him. The emperor had great expectations for this cronie, borrowed a donkey to go downhill, and issued a few reprimands, which can be regarded as a write-off of the previous defeat.

The ministers of the imperial court knew this, and they also knew that appropriate suppression was okay, and it was impossible to put the emperor's cronies to death, unless they were willing to take a few of them, so they acquiesced.

The military attache who was originally not very powerful was also happy to see new blood join, not to mention that there was also a Wang Ma in it, this one was a red one in the military general circle, and even his son had made military achievements this time, so naturally he would not stop it, so the reward was smooth sailing.

Hantan County, after listening to the holy decree, someone is naturally responsible for receiving the angels, some 'meaning' or something has already been prepared, and the other party understands and follows away, anyway, there is nothing for them to do next, just enjoy it and then go back to Beijing.

The county magistrate pulled Yan Xu to the study with some embarrassment, and he didn't even call the master.

"The master is a subordinate official, and the official didn't expect the imperial court to make such a will." The county order can be credited a lot this time, directly across the two grades, from the seven-grade county order to the six-grade prefect, just wait for the end of the war to take office, or a rich mansion, stronger than Hantan County I don't know where to go.

Compared with his rich reward, Yan Xu's reward can only be said to be unsatisfactory, and the county commander who still needs Yan Xu's strength to overcome the next difficulties is naturally uneasy, in case the other party does not contribute to the work, or something fails, his prefect will be in vain, and even the future of the future will be affected.

As soon as the holy decree was made, Yan Xu was also promoted, the captain of the five grades of Xiao cavalry, who can command five thousand iron cavalry, has no small rights, but the problem is that there is no horse, what kind of cavalry is no horse? !

After all, the county commander is not a military attaché, and he doesn't know what the concept of five thousand iron cavalry is, but he knows that cavalry is more precious than infantry, and that's enough. Obviously, the reward was to lead the cavalry, but he became an infantryman, and anyone would be angry, so he was afraid that Yan Xu would have emotions, so he hurriedly appeased him, planning to make amends from other places, at least don't have problems while he is still in office.

Yan Xu didn't have any ideas, because he knew that his credit was not enough to reach this level. After all, if you want to train 5,000 cavalry, you have to lose at least two or three thousand war horses during the training period, and as for those who died in accidents during the period, no one cares about them compared to precious war horses.

A battalion of 5,000 cavalry, with at least 7,000 horses on board, and a larger number of pack horses, so that the logistics could keep up with the speed of the cavalry in wartime. The cost of this is simply astronomical, with such a deep background of the Great Song Dynasty, at most it is to support 100,000 cavalry, and there must be a premise for this, they must have so many horses.

Not every horse can become a war horse, not only physical strength, speed, explosive endurance must be quite good, but also need the right character and strict training, after all, horses are very timid, just let the horse adapt to the atmosphere of the battle is not easy, dare to face the enemy's cold and shining weapons to charge the war horse is not much, a hundred miles is not too much.

But there are only a few horses in the entire Great Song Dynasty, and even if Yan Xu makes a great contribution to the sky, it is impossible to allocate five thousand iron horses to him in one go.

In fact, if Yan Xu was directly promoted to a miscellaneous general of the fourth grade, it would be much easier, and he would be sent away by vacating a position in the court to stand guard. But now the front is in full swing, and he can't do without him at all, so he must be given real power.

Of course, giving the identity of a general is not that these problems cannot be solved, but Tong Guan gave the emperor a secret letter, exposing part of the combat effectiveness of the forbidden army, even if it was only a part, the emperor was shocked into a cold sweat, and the safety of him and the entire capital was actually handed over to a group of clowns, which was decisive and inappropriate, and even the pickled girl was not at ease.

Therefore, the emperor intends to use this to train an elite army, and at the same time eliminate a group of forbidden troops who only eat and do not work, so that a lieutenant position that can train soldiers in non-war times is quite necessary.
