Chapter 117: Soldiers Coming to the Royal City to Challenge

Next.

As soon as dawn broke and the dense fog had not dispersed, Jia Hui and Ye Xiong went on the road, quietly bypassing the royal city and heading westward.

On this day, Sun Yu, Huang Quan and others were training soldiers in the barracks, Wang Xu came with Zhang Meng, and as soon as the four of them saw Wang Xu, they immediately stepped forward to say hello.

Wang Xu waved his hand casually, the noise was too loud, and he didn't bother to talk to everyone; Ignoring the crowd, he was here today to test the soldiers and see what was going on with the 90,000-strong army.

Huang Quan pointed to the tens of thousands of troops standing in the school field, and said with a smile: "Lord, although these are all recruits, but you look at the equipment, the armor is distinct, and the swords and guns are shining, I believe that as long as you have a little training, your combat power will definitely not be weak." ”

Zhang Meng's face was full of disdain, and he snorted coldly: "A recruit is a recruit, not as good as my own soldiers, if I want to say it, I have to go to the battlefield to fight a few battles with real swords and guns, and then the new soldiers will become old." ”

Wang Xu smiled and teased: "Do you want to leave it to you to train?" ”

"Really?" Zhang Meng really believed it, and said with a grateful face: "Lord, as long as you believe me, I will take them to the royal city immediately." ”

Wang Xu's face twitched, he really couldn't trust it, waved his hand, and directly vetoed Zhang Meng.

After taking a few steps forward, Wang Xu came to a handsome platform on the east side of the school field.

Standing on the platform, the army under the stage is in full view, the 80,000 army is like an ant nest everywhere, because there is still fog now, so at this glance, it is impossible to see the end.

Sun Yu and the others also walked up, Huang Quan drew out a horizontal knife and pointed diagonally to the sky, and in an instant, the soldiers on the school field all roared loudly at the same time, and the sound shook the sky and resounded through the sky, but Wang Xu was a little dissatisfied when he heard it.

"It's okay, but I always feel like I'm missing something."

Zhang Mengwei laughed twice, came to Wang Xu's eyes, stared with a pair of big eyes, and said: "Lord, what they lack is fierceness like me, as well as self-confidence, you give them to me, I promise that they can be like me in two days." ”

Wang Xu pouted, stretched out his hand and took him aside: "Why are you so annoying, can I hand over this tens of thousands of troops to you, you should train your own soldiers with peace of mind." ”

Sun Yu and the others laughed, Zhang Meng was looking for scolding.

After a pause, Wang Xu said: "What Zhang Meng said is not unreasonable, no matter how much you train in this school field, you can't train that kind of fearless momentum, I think you still have to take them out to fight a few battles." ”

Sun Yu said: "Go to Wangcheng? ”

Wang Xu nodded.

Li Zhi rarely spoke, but at this time he still kept asking: "Zhou Yi saw that we had such a powerful army, did he dare to come out?" ”

This is also a problem that everyone is worried about, but Wang Xu's real purpose is not to really fight Zhou Yi, just to let the soldiers adapt to the feeling of going to the battlefield, so that they will not be afraid of the end of the battle, which is very important.

Wang Xu looked at Sun Yu and said, "Order, immediately bury the pot and make rice, and two hours later, attack the royal city." ”

Several people looked at each other, and Sun Yu said, "Do you really want to fight?" ”

"Of course it's true, go and give orders." Wang Xu said.

"No." The people answered.

Everyone didn't understand what Wang Xu meant, since he asked Jia Hui to negotiate with Lu Yang, why did he attack Wang Cheng by himself.

Wang Xu and Zhang Meng left, and the school field fell into busyness.

Outside the royal city was an incomparably vast open field, large enough to stand hundreds of thousands of troops, and three hours later, Wang Xu's army came here after eating.

The entire army can be said to be fully dispatched, and only 5,000 veterans remained in the camp.

Under the leadership of Sun Yu and others, the 80,000 army was simply arranged, and the speed was a little slow, after all, it was a new soldier, and it was about two hours later before the queue was stationed, roughly divided into sixteen phalanxes, each with 5,000 people.

In the center, there is a small phalanx here, about 2,000 people, it is Zhang Meng's new soldiers, the phalanx is full of royal flags, the wind blows, and the hunting sounds.

Wang Xu's face was a little not good, it took nearly two hours to just line up in a formation, fortunately the enemy in the city was not killed, otherwise he would definitely be killed and stabbed.

Zhang Meng always stayed by Wang Xu's side, looking back at the endless soldiers behind him, Zhang Meng was suddenly full of pride, and finally came out, it was time to make meritorious contributions.

Zhang Meng said excitedly: "Lord, let me challenge." ”

Wang Xu shook his head, Zhang Meng has the highest martial arts in the army, and he is the pillar of the army, how can he attack in the first battle, Wang Xu said: "You just wait, I don't need you yet." ”

Zhang Meng touched his nose and immediately drooped his head.

Looking at the many captains around, Wang Xu said with a smile: "If you have ambitions, you should make meritorious contributions to serve the people on the battlefield, this battle is extremely important, it is related to the life and death of the army, and it is required to make meritorious contributions, you are all young and handsome in the army, who will fight this first battle?" ”

In addition to Zhang Meng, there are more than a dozen captains around, including Qiancang and Min Ling, both of whom were recruited by Sun Yu and Huang Quan, although their martial arts are good, their positions in the army are still at the rank of captains, because Wang Xu has not yet been officially appointed.

The captains are all recruits, to put it bluntly, they were ordinary people before, at best, they are people who have learned a little martial arts, and they are inevitably a little timid when they first go to the battlefield, everyone lowers their heads, intentionally or unintentionally hiding, for this phenomenon, it is also expected by Wang Xu, he is not angry, just a little sigh, and the veteran is still reliable at the critical time.

Zhang Meng was secretly anxious, indignant in his heart, looked back at the group of people behind him, and immediately scolded: "Look at you one by one, what are you afraid of?" I don't know the blessing in the blessing, I can't go up and fight if I want to, what are you hesitating about when you have this opportunity? All soft eggs. ”

Looking at Wang Xu, Zhang Meng asked for battle again: "Lord, let me go, if you can't win, you don't need to do it, I will kill myself in front of the army!" ”

Wang Xu was moved, and Zhang Meng used it at the critical time, and he was not angry, and pointed at everyone: "You all study hard with Zhang Meng, it doesn't matter if you can't win or not, you can't lose your momentum!" ”

Zhang Meng looked proud, thinking that he would be able to fight soon, but at this time, an accident happened, and a captain drove the war horse forward: "Lord, please fight." ”

Dry warehouse? This name is very unfamiliar, but looking at the person next to him, Wang Xu immediately remembered that this person also attended a meeting together in the Chinese army's big tent last night, and Sun Yu seemed to have mentioned it at that time, and it is said that the martial arts are good.

Wang Xu nodded, feeling very relieved, finally there is a person who is not afraid of death, if the commander and captain are afraid of death, in the long run, can the soldiers under his command still be strong, as the saying goes, a soldier is a bear, and a nest of bears.

Wang Xu said: "Okay, Qiancang, let you challenge in front of the army, no matter whether you win or lose, you will be credited!" ”

"No." Qiancang returned his fist, turned around and ran forward.

He made the weapon very ordinary, it was a common horizontal knife, which looked no different from the sword and shield hand, but if you looked closely, you would find that the horizontal knife was a few points larger and thicker than the ordinary horizontal knife, and as for the weight, only Qiancang himself knew.
