Chapter 304: Change
Behind the hill where Zhao You was stationed, a large contingent was storming the defensive line set up by the scouts, rows of wooden stakes were kicked over, and a large number of soldiers charged up the hillside with their hands in hand.
Due to the scarcity of trees here, many of the scout soldiers who defended here had no place to hide, so they could only engage these soldiers head-on, and suffered heavy losses for a while.
As the saying goes, an inch is long and an inch is strong, and an inch is short and an inch is dangerous.
Scouts wield short blades in small spaces or dense forests, which naturally blend like fish in water, but in this open area they obviously suffer a lot.
The soldiers who were armed with war warriors were possessed by the god of war, killing the scouts and retreating, powerless to resist.
As for the masters of the scouts, they are often trained and suppressed by the masters among these soldiers when they first emerge, and then they are beaten to death.
When Zhao You came to the rear, he saw such a scene.
A large number of soldiers on the other side surrounded and beat his elite soldiers, causing many of his powerful soldiers to die in battle, which made Zhao You feel distressed.
"Stand back and let them go into the woods behind. Zhao You looked at the subordinates who were throwing against him not far away, and said to the people around him through gritted teeth.
Anger is anger, and he won't let his people continue to go to the front to die, where there are too few trees, the terrain is too open, and they have no resistance in the past with only short blades.
The only thing they can do to take revenge and kill the invading enemy is to retreat into the woods and use the terrain to increase their advantage.
"Where is this, I am the one who will follow His Highness to fight the world in the future. ”
"Withdraw!" Zhao You said with a wave of his hand.
As soon as the order to retreat came out, the scouts who were still resisting suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly retreated towards the rear while fighting.
If you retreat in a swarm, you will be swallowed by the opponent by seizing the opportunity, while a few people retreat, and others are easy to fall into a stalemate with the opponent.
So everyone can only maintain the current situation, fighting and retreating backwards.
The view of this mountain is excellent, and there are many forces that have taken a fancy to this place, but most of them have the mentality of causing less enemies and reducing losses, and they have not come to fight.
But even so, there are always a few forces that want to occupy open terrain.
However, after hitting a wall one after another and leaving behind more than a dozen corpses, these forces also chose to leave.
However, the force in front of him didn't know why, even though it had lost hundreds of people, it still had no intention of giving up here.
It's as if you want to take this place, and you won't let go if you don't take it.
Time passed slowly, and Zhao You's subordinates lost a lot on the way to retreat, making the already small number of people even fewer at this time.
"My lord, we still have four hundred and seventy people...... After retreating into the woodland, the other party did not catch up, but Zhao You and the others won a chance to breathe.
After counting the number of people, it was found that their team of more than 800 people had almost halved by half.
"Relying on the woodland defense, they can only give up their long weapons when they come in, and if they dare to change to short weapons, it will be our home field. Zhao You's eyes were glowing with cold light, and his killing intent was clear.
After the nearby soldiers received the order, they immediately searched the defense line and chose a defensive posture relying on the forest.
"They're hiding, are we going to chase them?"
At this time, the group of soldiers outside the forest looked ahead and stopped. 88
"Kill them and don't destroy them all, it's hard to understand the hatred in my heart. The commander said in a deep voice, setting the tone for the continued attack.
If a scout soldier was there, they would have discovered that this person was the same one they had ambushed on the road.
"Damn, after chasing for so many days, I've finally found these guys with no identity information, ambushed us and killed so many of us, do you really think we can have good fruit to eat?"
As the lieutenant charged, the other soldiers also switched to their short knives and rushed into the woods.
However, what these people didn't know was that at this time, You Ye had already reached the bottom of the hill and sent a large number of black-clothed guards to the rear of the camp to support Zhao You.
Compared to the chaos outside the fog, the Youyuan Fortress behind the fog is peaceful.
Thousands of villagers are sowing grain seeds in the planting area of the fort, facing the loess with their backs to the sky.
And the same thousands of Weishui Army also ushered in the notice of refinement of the troops at this time.
"Hey, have you heard? Lord Gu Xun deliberately classified the composition of the Weishui Army, and it is said that this time the strongest group of people will be selected to become the guards of each adult. ”
"What's more, I heard that the entire Weishui Army may be divided into three categories, namely the defending army and the patrol army, as well as the attacking army for foreign conquest. ”
"What are the three categories, how did I hear that they are five subcategories?"
Voices rang out in the barracks, and all the soldiers were discussing these things.
"By the way, hasn't anyone heard of a proposal from your Yuanjun?"
On a training ground where the leaders of each squad were located, many people were discussing it enthusiastically.
"What is that? Let's talk about the number of people now, I heard that the planning and structure of the Weishui Army are not enough, why did you still come up with a Youyuan Army?"
"It's Li Gou...... Master Li said it unintentionally, and it is said that this matter was still sent by Childe. ”
"What? What does Childe mean?
A group of junior captains suddenly burst into gossip.
Scenes like this have appeared in many places in Youyuan Fortress, and everyone is very curious about it, but there has never been a formal notice, which makes everyone full of curiosity.
And in the center of the fortress, a group of men and women in Youyuan Mansion are sitting in a large hall.
"Gu Xun, what are the proposals for the establishment of military ranks in the Weishui Army?" Ye Xing asked, located at the highest point of the main hall.
"At present, there are many rank names for the collection, but most of them are not very good, and I personally recommend that they be defined by the military ranks of the Nine Colored Dynasty. ”
Gu Xun held a wad of papers in his hand, thought for a moment and then considered it.
"Is the military rank of the imperial dynasty?" Ye Xing thought for a moment, now that the Weishui Army has been officially established, it is no longer appropriate to divide the soldiers according to the previous village and town ranks.
And because the Weishui Army has a very high planning system, there will definitely be more people in the future, so they need to use new ranks to locate soldiers at all levels, otherwise this will easily lead to confusion between the upper and lower ranks.
"But...... It is said that now the various cities do not recognize the military rank of the imperial dynasty, and the only one who still recognizes it seems to be the power of the regent of the four realms. Wang Li frowned and said.
"It's enough to have the four realms, and the military rank of the Nine Colored Dynasty is orthodox, change it yourself, and it's useless if others don't recognize it. A female phantom suddenly appeared in the main hall, and her voice was melodious.
