Su Chenglong is stubborn, insidious, and arrogant.

No matter how Thunder Blade explained and analyzed, Su Chenglong was stubborn, and he also sneered at Thunder Blade, if it weren't for the fact that he was the main general, Thunder Blade would have beaten him violently.

There was no way, Lei Jian had to find Chen Chao, and the two lieutenants persuaded him, but he didn't believe this guy and didn't listen.

Chen Chao listened to Lei Blade's analysis, nodded and said, "General Lei, your construction is undoubtedly good. Now that we are on our own territory, how can the enemy's ambush soldiers come in, and even if they come, we can't get any news, right? ”

"However, General Lei, if you want me to go and persuade you with you, it's useless. Maybe you don't know much about General Su's past and personality. Let me tell you, General Su is the kind of person who defeated the battle and let others bear the blame, and defeated himself to take credit. This time to rescue Agni City, he didn't want to go, but he was ordered by His Majesty, and he had to go. ”

"General Su is not interested in rescuing Nanzhou, so he is deliberately marching slowly now, just waiting for the fall of Agni City. If we didn't go to Agni City and Agni City landed on the enemy, then he would have a reason to return to the dynasty and not fight, wouldn't he? In this way, he will not be punished if he does not lose the battle......"

Chen Chao's words made him grit his teeth and smile bitterly.

People like Su Chenglong are not enough to succeed and more than to lose!

It's no wonder that you can win a war with this kind of person!

"What do you think, General Chen? Are you, like General Su, looking forward to returning to the DPRK without a fight? ”

Lei Blade didn't feel good in his heart, he needed to make meritorious service now, he needed to have his own troops and his own forces, so that whether it was dealing with the remnants of the Heavenly Blood Alliance or the demon clan, he could take the initiative, and he didn't have to rely on the insidious villain of the Seventh Immortal Emperor.

And to have their own troops, the most important thing is that the thunder blade must make meritorious service, and only after meritorious service can there be a reward.

But when encountering such a "talent" as Su Chenglong, let alone meritorious service, Lei Jian was worried that he would encounter a rout.

"Alas, General Lei, it's not like you haven't seen that in the court, those nobles disdain and ridicule us. For you, I think you also know that I came here like this in the first place. ”

"Now, there are only three Pingming generals in the court, you, me and Jiang Yuan, and they have no status and identity in the court. Think about it, what will be the consequences if we lose? ”

"Once defeated, Su Chenglong has a powerful family behind him to protect him, His Majesty will definitely not punish him heavily, and with Su Chenglong's character, he will definitely put the responsibility for the defeat on us. If you think about it, we have no power in the court, no one will help us, and even the nobles curse us for accidents. When the time comes, it will only be the two of us who will be punished for defeat. ”

"Alas, a lesson from the past, during the period of the Sixth Immortal Emperor, there was a Pingming general, who was strong and was overshadowed by the noble general, and finally defeated and punished, and was directly sent to the frontier."

"So, General Lei, it's already rare for us civilians to be able to be generals, countless pairs of eyes are staring, let's not make mistakes, once we make a mistake, we may come down from our position, and there will be no place to turn over."

Chen Chao persuaded for a while, from his point of view, it was reasonable, but this kind of golden mean, Lei Jian didn't like it.

Su Chenglong's arrogance and no one in his eyes, Chen Chao's timidity and moderation, these two people made De Lei Jian helpless.

There is no way, for the time being, Thunder Blade can only act according to Su Chenglong's plan.

However, when the troops were camping and resting, Thunderblade called Ni Qiang to his camp.

"Don't worry, boss, this unit, I won't listen to Su Chenglong's words, I'll listen to you alone, I'll do whatever you tell me to do, rest assured, this is absolute!"

After Lei Jian explained his intention to Ni Qiang, Ni Qiang solemnly patted his chest and promised.

"Good brother, we can't follow Su Chenglong to die. We have big things to do! For Ni Qiang's promise, Lei Jian was extremely moved.

Ni Qiang said: "Yes, I have always believed in the boss, and I am willing to follow you in the future and do something big!" I'm sure the boss will be able to do great things! ”

After speaking, Ni Qiang immediately grinned and said, "Boss, I've gone home to get married, haha, I'm in our hometown now, that's a celebrity." Therefore, my father and wife all asked me to come back, let me go to Xiandu City to do a career, and glorify our ancestors for the Ni family! ”

No wonder Ni Qiang is still here, it turns out that he has gone home to get married.

Thunderblade nodded: "Okay, now is the chance for civilians like us to rise!" ”

Next, Thunderblade asked Ni Qiang to report on the specific situation of his city guards.

The city guard was 1,200 people, and there were no beast soldiers, but 200 crossbowmen.

The crossbow of this crossbowman is a true qi bow and crossbow, and the arrow carries true qi, which is specially used to shoot demonic beasts and fierce beasts, and can be regarded as the nemesis of beast soldiers. Of course, ordinary soldiers can't withstand a crossbowman's arrow.

Most of the 1,200 soldiers and 200 crossbowmen have only the Yuan Dan period, and their cultivation is low, that is to say, as long as the opponent is close to the crossbowmen, the combat effectiveness of the crossbowmen will be greatly reduced in close combat.

In addition to the 1,000 people, about 800 people are in the Yuan Infant Stage, and about 200 people are in the early stage of the Transformation of Gods, which is already the strongest combat effectiveness in the entire army.

Even if it is the main force of the three major legions, the cultivation is in the god transformation period, and it is less than thirty percent. And Ni Qiang's city guards were mainly selected from the major sects in Beizhou, which was equivalent to the selection of the forbidden army.

In terms of the combat effectiveness of the troops, the forbidden army is second to none, because the cultivation of all the people in the forbidden army is in the god transformation period or above. In addition, the city guard can be regarded as a strong combat force.

"Those who have entered the stage of transformation are basically in the early stage of transformation into gods, I am now in the middle stage of transformation into gods, and I also have a deputy, Li Yunlong, who is also in the middle stage of transformation into gods." Ni Qiang explained to Thunder Blade.

At that moment, Lei Blade asked Ni Qiang to call Li Yunlong over, and the three of them met, this Li Yunlong has a straightforward personality, full of pride, and has a good relationship with Ni Qiang, after learning that Lei Blade is Ni Qiang's boss, Li Yunlong is also willing to follow Ni Qiang and listen to Lei Blade's orders.

……

Half a month later, the troops finally entered the Nanzhou boundary. Along the way, they naturally did not encounter any enemy harassment.

However, to Su Chenglong's disappointment, the Fire City side was still in a stalemate with the Fire Eagle Legion, and there was no rout or surrender of the Fire City that Su Chenglong hoped for.

On this day, the spies in front hurriedly reported to Su Chenglong: "Report! General Su, the Fire Eagle Legion has discovered our whereabouts and sent troops to block us! ”
