At noon that day, Xiao Yuan had a full meal in the barracks, and then Lu Bolin personally selected five hundred elite soldiers.

These five hundred people are not new recruits, but they have all been on the real battlefield, fought with the ghost clan several times, and have rich experience in facing the enemy.

This is crucial.

According to the military system at that time, five people were appointed as captains, 100 generals were centurions, 1,000 people were commanders, and those who led 10,000 people were captains.

And among these five hundred people, there is a thousand-commander named Peng Shuang.

He was very young, about twenty-four or five years old, tall, with an angular face, like a knife, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and quite a heroic spirit.

At this moment, on the school ground, five hundred soldiers have been assembled, and after Lu Bolin ordered the troops, he also looked at Xiao Yuan next to him slightly, and said: "These five hundred soldiers are all the elite of our army, and all of them are veterans who have fought hard battles, how about it?" ”

"It's so good, and my subordinates will definitely live up to their trust." Xiao Yuan is also full of confidence.

"Okay." Hearing him say this, Lu Bolin nodded.

In fact, whether Xiao Yuan can open the gate of Yuecheng or not, his hope is not very great, but it is completely acceptable for him to bet on it at the cost of five hundred people.

At this time, Peng Shuang, who was standing in front of the team, also glanced at Xiao Yuan, and then clasped his fist at Lu Bolin and said, "Lu Shuai, there is something unknown in the end." ”

"What?" Hearing this, Lu Bolin couldn't help but look at him.

Peng Shuang pointed directly at Xiao Yuan, and said straight to the point: "This person is just a step, how to lead the troops?" ”

If you talk about military rank, Xiao Yuan is just a small pawn, but now he wants to lead these 500 people, it is conceivable that Peng Shuang will be convinced, and it is reasonable to have such remarks.

When Lu Bolin heard this, he said: "The night attack on Moon City was proposed by Xiao Yuan, and in this operation, these five hundred soldiers must also obey his command!" ”

"But Lu Shuai ......," Peng Shuang said urgently.

"It's nothing, this is a military order!" Lu Bolin interrupted him directly.

Seeing that he moved out of the military order, Peng Shuang suddenly lost his voice, in the army, the military order is greater than everything, after he took a deep breath, he also clenched his fists again, and said in a sullen voice: "The last general obeys the order." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Yuan again dissatisfied.

The latter smiled slightly, didn't say anything, and after saying some more words to Lu Bolin, he also waved his hand and shouted: "Let's go!" ”

With his order, the five hundred soldiers were all dressed in armor and hung swords on their waists, forming a long line.

And to get to the dense forest before, it will take half a day, and on the way to the march, Xiao Yuan also began to say to Peng Shuang: "It seems that you are dissatisfied with me in your heart? ”

Peng Shuang is the commander of a thousand people, and Xiao Yuan is the leader of the five hundred people, therefore, the two of them are in the front, after hearing this, Peng Shuang also glanced at Xiao Yuan, and let out a cold snort: "Five hundred people, I want to capture Yuecheng, I really don't know whether to say that you have commendable courage or that you are a madman!" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan smiled, and then deliberately said, "In this way, are you scared?" ”

"Afraid?" Peng Shuang sneered and said, "I, Peng Shuang, stand up to the sky and the earth, and I have been fighting with the ghost clan for so long, and I don't know what it means to be afraid!" ”

Xiao Yuan smiled again, these five hundred people, whether they obey him or not, it doesn't matter now, the important thing is that this battle will decide his fate!

You must know that he has just escaped from Moon City, and now he has to return with 500 people to fight back, and this kind of decision is a great determination.

And what he didn't know was that Peng Shuang was not a powerful person, at such an age, he could be a commander in the army, and he was completely killed on the battlefield!

His personality is also relatively strong, and he is the kind of person who is straightforward and will show everything on his face.

After an afternoon of traveling, the team finally arrived at the dense forest in the evening.

Then, Xiao Yuan began to follow the marks he had made before, stopping and stopping.

Five hundred people, deep into the dense forest, surrounded by lush trees, when it was almost dark, Peng Shuang was also a little impatient, and couldn't help asking, "Where are you going to take us?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan looked around, there should be a waterhole in front of him, thinking of this, he also raised his hand to signal the team to stop advancing, and then said: "It's coming soon, let's rest here first." ”

"What is there to rest." Peng Shuang muttered.

"Since it's a night attack, naturally you have to wait until late at night." Xiao Yuan still has that smiling appearance, he didn't take Peng Shuang's attitude to heart, and it is completely understandable, after all, he commands the army as a foot soldier, and anyone will have a rebellious mentality, not to mention that era.

And Lu Bolin already had a military order, all actions must be under Xiao Yuan's command, he said that he rested in place, Peng Shuang had no choice but to act according to his words.

As the order was given, all the soldiers sat on the ground, or leaned against the tree, and took out the dry food they had brought with them and ate it.

Peng Shuang glanced around, and soon, he found a huge fruit tree, which was full of red fruits.

Seeing this, his eyes lit up, and then he walked quickly to the big tree, turned sideways, and slammed into it.

When he hit it, the tree shook endlessly, and the red fruit on the tree also fell one after another.

Peng Shuang was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately picked up a fruit, wiped it on his clothes casually, and then took a bite of it.

While eating, he also cried out, "Come, come, come, take some fruit and eat." ”

As he shouted, the surrounding soldiers also stepped forward and began to pick up the fruit on the ground and eat it.

However, seeing this scene, the surprise in Xiao Yuan's eyes flashed, because that big tree was enough for several people to hug!

With a lot of strength, Xiao Yuan walked over unhurriedly.

"Give." Seeing him coming, Peng Shuang also threw him a fruit casually.

Xiao Yuan raised his hand to take it, then sat down next to it, and said, "I know you look down on me as a little pawn, but these are not important, the important thing is that we can't lose this battle!" ”

Hearing this, Peng Shuang glanced at him and said truthfully: "I am a poor family, and I also started as a foot soldier, how can I look down on you, I just think that you want to capture Yuecheng with 500 people this time, you really let your brothers sacrifice in vain." ”

As he spoke, he said again: "I'm not afraid of dying on the battlefield, but what about the five hundred brothers in front of me? ”

Xiao Yuan understood what he meant, and immediately said: "Believe me, although this battle is dangerous, we will definitely succeed!" ”
