Chapter Seventy-Six: Summoning the Fierce Generals
This upgrade of the system, needless to say, has benefits. But there are always two sides to the development of things.
The growth of the origin tree, the expansion of the scope of influence, and the rapid increase in influence led to the outbreak of the fierce beast on a certain course!
In the past few days, on the four fronts, the offensive of the fierce beasts has been much faster than before.
They're crazier, more violent, and more aggressive!
Fortunately, Li Zheng used the terrain to convert the drawings and rebuild and strengthen the fortifications on the battle line, so that the fury of the fierce beast did not cause too much loss.
However, compared with before, the casualty rate of soldiers has increased slightly.
Especially on the southwest line of Liangzhou, with the large-scale arrival of the flying beast group, the defense of this line is even more difficult.
Li Zheng had to divide more war cavalry troops to patrol this line, especially the Golden Wing Tiger Cavalry.
So far, the number of Golden Winged Tigers under Li Zheng's command has reached 10,000. Except for the 1,000 Golden-Winged Tiger Riders led by Lu Bu who went to find the space-time channel, the remaining 9,000 Golden-Winged Tiger Riders were all divided into the four major fronts.
Now, the battle line in the southwest of Liangzhou has allocated 4,000 Golden Wing Tiger Riders!
Even so, there are still some flying beasts that have been missed, breaking into the interior of Liangzhou, causing a lot of losses to the county.
Wuwei, Dichi.
"Bang bang!"
"Hurry up, everyone go into the house and take shelter immediately!"
Groups of county soldiers and government officials were riding their horses and beating gongs, galloping through the streets, shouting loudly.
Seeing this, the pedestrians were unhurried and entered the houses on both sides of the street.
"There should be another flying beast"
"Come and die."
"Holy shit, aren't these beasts annoying? Come once every three or five days. And not afraid of death! ā
Ordinary people and pedestrians hid in their houses, looking out of the street through the windows, and there was a lot of discussion.
There are also some mercenaries who are bold and proud of their skills, wearing armor. Carrying a large bow, he was staring at the sky under some cover from the street.
Suddenly, the sound of hoofs shook the earth outside the city.
"The Warrider is coming!"
People were in good spirits.
I saw that under the sunlight, several huge shadows were cast on the street. That's the beast.
"Haha, watch me shoot it down!"
A mercenary with a rough face laughed, stood up, and opened his bow and arrows, with a bang. The arrow hissed and headed straight into the sky!
"Wow!"
A shrill scream came from the sky.
The mercenary shot a beast, but failed to do so, attracting the attention of all the beasts. I saw four or five fierce beasts swooping down, rushing straight at the mercenaries, blocking the sunlight of this street!
"Holy!"
The mercenary was covered in a cold sweat and rolled on the spot, avoiding the fierce beast's attack. Ducked behind the pillars of a house. The four or five fierce beasts roared, and their huge flesh wings flapped, setting off gusts of wind. He swooped down again and chased after him.
At this moment, a long knife broke through the air, and the red light on the blade flickered, like a rainbow, and shot through. In an instant, two fierce beasts with a wingspan of several feet. He was cut into four pieces and fell into the dust.
"Kill!"
Zhang Liao shouted violently. The whole body is like a flame, and the long knife is vertical and horizontal. In a few breaths, four or five fierce beasts were slaughtered!
"Hey!"
Zhang Liao grabbed the reins, stood with a horizontal knife, looked at the fierce beast that was still not dead in the dust, and snorted coldly: "If it weren't for you beasts landing, General Ben really couldn't do anything about you for a while!" ā
A team of devastating warriors behind him also stopped and lined up behind Zhang Liao.
"Brother mercenary, thank you for bringing these brutes down!"
Zhang Liao smiled at the mercenary next to him.
The mercenary turned out from behind the pillar, touched his head, and smiled: "The general said that he laughed, I don't have the ability to shoot these beasts down, but these beasts covet this fat meat, hehe." ā
That is, these flying beasts entered the range of Dichi City and lowered the altitude of their flight, otherwise this mercenary would definitely not be able to shoot.
Otherwise, these fierce beasts would have been shot and killed by Zhang Liao's war horse, and they wouldn't have chased for so long.
At this time, the county commander and the county lieutenant of Dichi were also dressed in clothes, and led the officials and county soldiers to hurry over.
"General Zhang Liao!"
Zhang Liao led the war cavalry across the southwest line, and many officials on this line were very familiar with him. When the county commander and the county lieutenant saw that it was Zhang Liao, they all turned over and dismounted, saluted each other, and greeted each other with a smile.
Zhang Liao didn't get off the war horse, and said: "During this time, these fierce beasts have become more and more rampant. Both of you should also pay more attention. The corpses of these fierce beasts will be handed over to the two of them to deal with, and the general will still have to patrol the defense line, so he can't wait for a long time. ā
The two nodded: "General Zhang can rest assured." ā
Zhang Liao bowed his head, raised his knife and shouted: "Go!" ā
The war horse shook the ground and drove away.
After the war horse left, the county commander smiled at the county lieutenant: "Let the two of us pick up a bargain today," he said, pointing to the corpses of several fierce beasts on the ground, and said to the pedestrians who gradually surrounded him: "Who wants these fierce beasts?" ā
Immediately, a merchant stepped forward, approached for a moment, bought the corpses of these flying beasts, and left happily.
"Come on, divide all this money, clean the ground."
The county commander handed a small bag of silver coins obtained from the sale of the beast to the officials and county soldiers below, and rode back with the county lieutenant
With the birth of the Battle Qi skill, it has only been a few days, and there are already some strong people under Li Zheng's command who have stimulated the Battle Qi.
Among them, there are seven or eight strong men in the army, such as Lu Bu and Zhang Liao.
In addition, among the war cavalry troops, there are also a few three or five war cavalry, perhaps because of qualifications, or perhaps because the tacit understanding with the war cavalry has reached a high level, so it also stimulates the battle spirit.
The power of battle spirit is self-evident.
Although these soldiers who have just stimulated their battle qi have not much battle qi in their bodies, far less than Li Zheng, they can also be attached to weapons. Causes the attack strength to increase dramatically. Often with one blow, except for the fierce beasts that are too huge, the other fierce beasts are all settled with one knife and one shot.
The first one to stimulate the fighting spirit was Lu Bu. Three days ago, Lu Bu was in the process of fighting the fierce beasts around the space-time passage. Inspired the battle qi, the combat power skyrocketed, and one person and one spear killed more than a dozen fierce beasts. Afterwards, Lu Bu was puzzled because he didn't know the situation. reported the matter to Li Zheng.
Only then did I know that it was war spirit.
At this time, Li Zheng realized that he had missed something, so he immediately announced the information related to the battle qi to the officers and soldiers of the various ministries, and informed the method of stimulating the war qi.
And then a few days. Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Zhang Xiu and others successively stimulated the fighting spirit, so that the combat strength increased dramatically.
Now, they lead their war horses to crisscross the four major fronts, killing fierce beasts, like chopping melons and vegetables, and the end is like a god descending to earth, which makes the soldiers worship it very much. also let a lot of foot soldiers. Even more envy of the war cavalry troops.
In the following period, many generals in various armies stimulated the spirit of war.
After all, an officer above the rank of lieutenant. They are all equipped with blue-armored war horses, and officers above the rank of general are equipped with front-destroying war horses. So they also have the conditions to stimulate the fighting spirit.
This is only half a month in the blink of an eye, and on the four major fronts, every time the fierce beasts attack, many generals can be seen exploding into battle. A feat of fighting with a blade and killing a fierce beast.
Time. The term "war spirit" soon became popular in the army
At the beginning of the founding of the country. There are many important military and political affairs, and Li Zheng was busy dealing with important affairs for half a month. It wasn't until half a month later that it gradually eased up.
On this day, Li Zheng was going to go to the space passage and place the plane door.
So he called Xun You and several other important ministers to talk about the matter.
Tian Feng was the first to object.
"His Majesty is the ruler of a country, when the temple is bowed, how can he personally take risks? It's better to leave this to someone else! ā
Li Zheng said with a smile: "What Tian Qing said is not bad, but I really have to do it myself." ā
The gate of the plane is in Li Zheng's package, and it is extremely huge, it is impossible to take it out and hand it over to others to be responsible for transporting it, this distance is too far, and there are fierce beasts that are powerful, which is extremely inconvenient. Furthermore, when the plane gate is successfully placed, it is necessary to certify the controller, which Li Zheng must do by himself.
Knowing the reason, Tian Fengzi could no longer stop it, and after discussing it, they could only agree to Li Zheng going in person, but asked Li Zheng to bring enough escort forces.
This time to go to the space-time passage, you must take the Golden Wing Tiger Ride. And the Golden Wing Tiger Cavalry is extremely important to the four major fronts, and he can't be transferred too much, so in the end, Li Zheng decided to only bring five hundred Golden Wing Tiger Cavalry and a few strong people to accompany him.
First of all, I thought of summoning Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Zhang Xiu, but these three people are now the main forces on all fronts, and they can't leave without permission, so they vetoed it again. So Xun Yu built yƬ and gathered some of the generals who were originally under the command of the rest of the princes and are now studying in the academy to protect Li Zheng's safety.
Li Zheng thought about it and agreed to this construction, so he ordered Sun Ce, Zhou Tai, Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Ji Ling, Huang Zhong, Wen Ping, Wei Yan, Tai Shici, Gongsun Zhan, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, a total of eighteen extraordinary martial arts generals, to immediately assemble in the Shenzhou grassland.
Most of these eighteen people are already famous all over the world. But a few people are still unknown. Among them are Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan.
Huang Zhong was a general under Liu Biao, but he was not reused and did not make any contributions. Wei Yan is only a city gate captain, and Zhao Yun is only a member of the White Horse Righteous Servant under Gongsun Zhan, and all of them are lowly officials.
That is, Li Zheng remembers these three people, otherwise with their current status, they would not be qualified to meet Li Zheng at all.
At noon, a group of fierce generals arrived at the Shenzhou grassland.
Although these fierce generals are fierce, they are not much different from ordinary people in the face of a qiÄ in the grassland, and they are all shocked.
Although some of them have heard of these miraculous beings, how can the fame be as shocking as what they have witnessed?
In the palace hall, Li Zheng received this line of fierce generals.
To his surprise, there was one more, nineteen people.
When I asked carefully, it turned out to be Ma Chao. Li Zheng forgot about this general for a while.
"There's a big deal that I need you to escort me there." Li Zheng said with a smile: "That's why I gathered you today. ā
"What's the big deal that requires the Son of Heaven to do it in person?" Gongsun Chan frowned slightly.
Li Zheng's implication of this was that he regarded them as bodyguards, which really made Gongsun Zhan feel a little unhappy.
Li Zheng laughed: "Naturally, it is a major event, and it is a major event that has a turning impact on the development direction of the empire." ā
He also saw the dissatisfaction of some of them.
Some of these generals are both civil and military, and now they want to be bodyguards, which is really not satisfactory.
Li Zheng's eyes flashed, he squinted at them, and said, "If it weren't for the fact that my subordinates were not at ease, I wouldn't have bothered to summon you over, so it's just a big move." ā
As he spoke, he shook his head.
Immediately, everyone in His Highness frowned.
Is this looking down on them? (To be continued)
