Chapter 12: The Sharp Knife Battalion is established
In the northwest corner of the General's Palace, there is an arch that can be walked by three people, which is the entrance from the General's Mansion to the barracks. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"General Lee!"
"Hmm."
If you don't meet a general or soldier on the road, you will give General Li a military salute, which shows Li Hong's high status.
It's no wonder, after all, Li Hong is the most trusted person around Yue Fei, and he has been with Yue Fei for I don't know how many years, and the tacit understanding between the two is incomparable, so even though Li Hong has a low military rank, everyone respects him very much.
Xu Duan and the others passed by the archway, and what came into view were tents one after another.
It is said that it is a military camp, but it is actually a large square, and the only building is the surrounding wall and the large school field in the middle of the military camp.
At the moment, almost all the soldiers are training, and the barracks are very large, and there is no problem in accommodating a million people.
This can only be said that the border city is large, in fact, the border city is a huge military camp, only a thick city wall, and inside it is the military camp and the general's mansion.
The shouts in the barracks shook the sky, although it was in the depths of winter, but sweat covered the faces of every soldier.
On the way, Li Hong also briefly introduced Xu Duan to the legions to which each region belonged.
Every 100,000 people is a corps, for example, the Yuejia Army, every 10,000 people is a corps, and under the corps is the division, that is, a thousand people, and the commander is the supreme leader of the division.
Further down, there is the centurion, also known as the captain, because a hundred people are a brigade, ten people are a small team, and the ten-captain is also the captain of this squad.
Now there are two million soldiers of all sizes in the border city, which is also very normal, after all, the population of the Hegemony Empire and the Red Sun Empire is already large.
However, among the 2 million soldiers, only 900,000 have combat effectiveness, and the remaining 1.1 million are to manage logistics, including the transportation of military grain and grass.
The Gathering Spirit Realm and the Huahai Realm can't reach the realm of Bigu, not to mention that among the 900,000 people, there are 750,000 soldiers under the Gathering Spirit Realm, and among the remaining 150,000 people, there are only 30,000 in the Huahai Realm and only 120,000 in the Gathering Spirit Realm!
It can be said that all the main forces are soldiers of the Air-Liquid Realm and the Cyclone Realm.
But now that the Red Sun Empire doesn't know what is crazy, the warriors of the Cyclone Realm are not sent to the battlefield at all, and in the face of the strong men of the other side, the Dominant Empire can only leave the soldiers of the Cyclone Realm in the big camp.
"General Li, what about Li Zheng?" Xu Duan asked with a smile.
"Hey, it's not because of Xiao Feng, when you borrowed troops, the general wanted Xiao Feng to go, but he couldn't go, anyway, Li Zheng had nothing to do at that time, so I let him go." Li Hong shrugged his shoulders and said.
"I'm not sorry to go, go there to train soldiers, what's good, and I don't have military merits." Yue Feng said angrily.
Xu Duan patted Yue Feng on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you are smart but you are mistaken by being smart, I estimate that after the end of the war, Li Zheng's military merits will definitely be higher than yours!" ”
Li Hong and Yue Feng looked at Xu Duan in surprise at the same time, and when they saw the smile on each other's faces, they couldn't figure it out.
Li Hong thought to himself, what the hell was Xu Duan thinking, could it be that Canglong City was weird? Or Canglongmen?
Suddenly, Li Hong's eyes lit up, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Xu Duan, because he thought that Xu Duan knew a lot of information that even their military didn't know, that is, he knew why Xu Duan borrowed troops.
Because the 100,000 soldiers of the Cyclone Realm borrowed are the internal guarantee of the empire!
Although the imperial capital has the Imperial Forest Army, the Imperial Forest Army is only guarding the imperial capital, which shows the importance of the 100,000 Cyclone Realm soldiers.
Moreover, Li Hong said from Li Zheng's letter that after coming to Canglong City, he met Sun Lao, who brought a lot of resources, and at the same time found some tutors from the academy to help him train his troops.
When Li Hong thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the hero was a teenager.
"Xu Duan, you can go less over there, restrain your subordinates, I know that your subordinates are wild and untamable now." Li Hong looked at the crazy monk without a trace, drinking wine and eating meat, he wouldn't even commit the sexual ring.
"What are you looking at?" Minglu was sharp-eyed, and found that Li Hong glanced at him.
"Ahem, that's a female legion, the corps commander is a female hero of the Dai family, and even the general doesn't dare to offend her." Li Hong said with a blushing face.
Xu Duan saw Li Hong's unnatural expression and said jokingly: "Could it be that General Li suffered a loss at the hands of General Dai Shangwu?" ”
"Haha, Xu Duan, how can Uncle Li call it a loss, and he is also at a loss to fight now, if it is in the imperial capital, General Li is abused at home every day." Yue Feng's eyebrows fluttered.
"Oh~~ I see." Xu Duan said with a smile.
"Go aside, I'm not joking, these 100,000 female soldiers, but they are quite strong, you let your group of subordinates be honest." Li Hong said solemnly with a red face.
"Don't worry, General Lee."
Xu Duan waved his hand indifferently, but because he didn't care, what he didn't expect was that the later Sharp Knife Battalion really offended the 100,000 female soldiers.
The northwest corner of the barracks is also close to the direction of the south gate of the border city, and out of the south gate is the Heroic Soul Plain.
In this large area in the northwest corner, there are more than 3,000 bandits, each of whom has a Xuanhuo horse next to him.
In front of these more than 3,000 people, there were about 1,000 young people, and the faces of these young people were a little more dignified, a little less immature, and there was an invisible aura of slaughter.
But when they saw Xu Duan coming, their faces were full of joy.
"Scarlet Gate! Ape Gate! Ape Gate! ”
More than a thousand people chanted at the same time, and the sound was earth-shattering, making the other legions in the distance unconsciously look at this side.
"Xiang Fei, go and tidy up that group of scattered people!" Xu Duan frowned and said, he was angry when he saw the lazy appearance of this group of bandits.
But although these people are lazy, they are not bad at all in fighting, of course, it is a time of melee, fighting alone.
If you really go head-to-head with the army, these people are tantamount to cannon fodder!
"Stand up for Lao Tzu! Look what you guys look like! Xiang Fei moved very quickly, first found a few extremely lazy people, and after a violent beating, everyone else became honest.
Li Hong didn't speak on the side, he wanted to see why Sun Lao valued Xu Duan so much, and such a big thing as giving Xu Duan the Holy Token was definitely not Sun Lao's decision alone.
Xu Duan couldn't help but have a sour nose when he saw his good brothers, and saw that some of them had scars on their faces without knowing when they had already appeared, and the traces of war were visible at a glance.
Some of them were bandaged, apparently on a recent mission.
Looking at their immature faces at the beginning, but now they have changed to mature appearances, Xu Duan knows how much they have suffered in the past two years.
"Brothers, I ...... It's back. ”
"Scarlet Gate! Ape Gate! Ape Gate! ”
Xu Duan raised his hands, and the people below quieted down, at this time, Shu Yu, Minglu and others had already entered the crowd, and everyone looked at Xu Duan with excited faces.
"Little Dragon!"
"In!"
"Point General!"
"Yes!"
"Xiang Fei!"
"The subordinates are here!"
"Point General!"
"Yes!"
The two of them quickly counted the number of bandits and the scarlet gate, adding up to exactly five thousand! Including Xu Duan!
"Hahahaha! Ok, good, good! Five thousand, from now on we are the Sharp Knife Battalion! A battalion of sharp knives that go straight to the heart of the enemy! ”
"Sharp Knife Battalion! Sharp Knife Battalion! Sharp Knife Battalion! ”
Five thousand people shouted, shaking the Xuanhuo horses next to them all looking up to the sky and screaming.
Li Hong nodded with satisfaction, Xu Duan's cohesion is indeed extraordinary, this may be a kind of personality charm, and there is no need for too much incitement to make these people in front of him condense.
"General Li, I want to ask you for a favor."
"Even if it is."
"I want fifteen hundred Xuanhuo horses!"
“……”
Li Hong looked at Xu Duan speechlessly, the Xuanhuo Horse was very precious, and when he saw Xu Duan's three thousand five hundred Xuanhuo Horses, he had an urge to grab them directly.
"What's wrong?" Xu Duan said in surprise.
"Xu Duan, you don't know, the Xuanhuo Horse only has 20,000 iron horsemen in our empire, after all, the value of the Xuanhuo Horse is too great, this is really ......" Li Hong said with a blushing face.
"So the general wants to break the contract? Otherwise, the general will pay the general price, and I will pay the rest. Xu Duan also saw Li Hong's difficulties.
"Okay, I'll talk to the general when I get back later." Li Hong said with a smile.
Then, Xu Duan turned to look at them, and in the crowd, he saw Bai Yunling, Liu Yan and others, his eyes were surprised, and he was immediately relieved, it seemed that the two of them agreed to his original invitation.
As for the other students of the academy, they are all interspersed in every legion, and the most important thing is experience, after all, these are the future flowers of the empire, and Yue Fei is still very careful.
Although Xu Duan can now pull all the students to him, he doesn't want to do this, after all, others don't want to come, and forcing them will make people unconvinced.
"Yue Feng!"
"In!"
"Take back all the Xuanhuo horses, and distribute them uniformly when the time comes, from now on, everything will be trained according to the rules of the Yue family's army!"
"Immediately, immediately!"
Xu Duan's voice clearly reached everyone's ears, the people of the Scarlet Gate are better, those bandits are restless, they are usually lazy.
Xu Duan looked at the people in front of him, he already had a plan in his heart, he was not afraid that these people would be lazy, bandits would join the army, which one was not a thorn, but Xu Duan's best thing was to rectify the thorn!
