Normally, because the master of the Dragon King Gang should be called the Dragon Slayer Captain, however, the dragon generally represents the Son of Heaven, unless it is a rebellion, no one dares to call the Dragon Slayer, even Tu Jiao is too high-profile, the Snake Captain is the best, it is estimated that the Dragon King Gang is despised.

The captain commands a battalion and has 2,000 soldiers under his command, which means that from today onwards, Ye Chen can command 2,000 soldiers.

Don't look exaggerated, it's actually not surprising in this world.

Ye Chen's current strength is considered a top master in the entire world, even if he doesn't make an inch, just by joining the army alone, he can at least lead a department, the military system below the battalion level, about five hundred people, with his record of killing the three top masters of the Dragon King Gang, it is not surprising that the official is promoted to command a battalion.

You can't use modern thinking to think about ancient times, ancient times were originally based on strength, and masters above two stars were big names in the whole world, and they were all overlords everywhere, just like the Jinhong Sword Gate where Ye Chen's body was located, it was rumored that there was also a top master of the two-star rivers and lakes in the door, and he was still the current great elder of the previous generation, and he had long since stopped asking about the world.

What's more, now the imperial court needs to recruit masters to deal with the masters of the Dragon King Gang, how can it recruit masters to serve without spending some money.

Early the next morning, Ye Chen took the seal letter issued by General Pingnan and went to the camp in the south of the city, where there were his men, a newly formed battalion.

To be precise, the battalion itself is an old word, but not long ago it was disabled in a battle with the Dragon King Gang, with heavy casualties, and only two or three percent of the veterans remained, and the rest were all recruits who were replenished not long ago, and the combat effectiveness was worrying.

This is also the main reason why he can easily get a full battalion, how can a main battalion that is really full of veterans be so easy to give him.

Ye Chen didn't have any opinion on this, it was already very good to be able to command two thousand subordinates, which would allow him to complete the plan faster.

In the barracks, force is respected, and the big fist is the truth, so he entered the barracks and directly hammered all the disobedient people to the ground with his fists, and successfully took over the battalion.

For the next period of time, he only did two things every day, one was to drill these recruits every day to further improve their combat effectiveness and prepare for the next plan; The second thing is to enter the military and watch all kinds of martial arts cheats.

With his current position as a lieutenant, he is already a middle and senior officer in the army, and he has great authority, and he can watch martial arts below one star, and he doesn't need to use meritorious service to exchange qualifications.

Ye Chen is also ruthless now, and he has been soaking in the army for a whole month, and he has read the few cheats in it, but the main thing to look at is the swordsmanship, knife and fist techniques, and the number of light skills and internal strength is very small in the army, and the most is the knife method, because the most suitable martial arts for soldiers in the army is still the knife method, so it is the most.

But no matter how little it is, it's actually quite a lot, and he has seen no less than 30 internal strength methods alone, and basically read all the internal strength methods that he can see.

No way, in this world, the most important thing in martial arts is internal strength and moves, any martial arts wants to exert the greatest power, the internal force must be strong, the stronger the internal force, even ordinary moves will become stronger, so he puffed up a breath and wrote down all the internal skills that can be seen, ready to wait for enough potential points, all in one breath, he wants to deduce a martial art that is unprecedented in this world.

After a whole month, the martial arts were almost finished, and the army was almost trained, Ye Chen asked General Pingnan for orders and went to the Yangtze River to clear the Dragon King Gang of water bandits.

General Pingnan couldn't ask for it, so he immediately responded.

This is also the task of most of the captains of the Pingnan battalion, large-scale battles on the Yangtze River are unlikely, and usually small groups of troops clash each other, so masters are particularly important.

In the early morning, the smoke on the river is vast, the white mist is drifting, except for the fishing boats that get up early, it is the water bandits of the Dragon King Gang.

In the entire middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, there are no other scattered water bandit forces, all of which have been integrated into the Dragon King Gang, and now even the imperial court does not know how many people the Dragon King Gang has now.

According to the information obtained from the army, the main force of the Dragon King Gang is now on the Jinling side, and it is entangled with the fleet commanded by the governor of the Jiangnan Navy on the river, so it is on the defensive in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River in the face of the southern battalion of the imperial court.

"Captain Ye, in front of you is the Dragon King Gang Tongjiang Water Village, and there are thousands of water bandits in it."

On the warship, Ye Chen's deputy, a real officer, was pointing to a water village in front of him to introduce him.

The scale of this water village is much larger than the water village he encountered before, the water village he saw before was only guarded by fifty or sixty people, this one has thousands of people, it is one of the most important water villages of the Dragon King Gang, and there is one of the thirteen incense masters, Tongjiang Ahuipe Wang Yuanshi, who is in charge of the town.

Looking at the huge water village, Ye Chen was excited, all of them are potential points, thousands of water villages, how can you gain one or two hundred potential points after a battle, if you are ruthless, you can have more, such as....

"Ready!"

He lightly ordered, and the adjutant on the side immediately clasped his fists and saluted, turned around and shouted:

"The captain has an order, everyone prepares!"

There was a soldier in the bow of the ship who immediately waved the big flag in his hand in different ways, this is the flag language, there was no such thing as a telephone in ancient times, and the command on the water relied on the flag language, and the big flag waved in different ways, representing different orders.

The adjutant issued different orders one after another, and the flags kept changing, and more than a dozen warships also scattered into a line and rushed towards the water village.

His adjutant is now very dedicated to assisting him, Ye Chen told him before leaving, he will only stay here for a while, you can assist me well, and when I leave, I will recommend you to take over my position, so they will cooperate and harmonize.

Ye Chen is self-aware, his martial arts are powerful, but he is a novice in army command, this kind of thing is better left to professionals, just concentrate on brushing up on potential points.

With the protection of the army, he can kill the Dragon King and the water bandits openly without fear of being besieged, which is one of the main reasons why he joined the Great Yan army decisively, and the lack of temper that was besieged before made him very annoyed, and he never wanted to encounter that kind of situation again.

There was no imaginary shout, and the army fleet rushed directly into the water wall, and the battle was about to break out.

"Boom..."

More than a dozen warships rushed to the dock with a loud bang, and a large number of soldiers jumped from their ships and rushed into the water wall with shouts, and then the adjutant ordered all the warships to shoot horizontally, with the help of crossbow arrows and archers on board.

Ye Chen waited for the army to attack for a while and completely melee with the Dragon King Gang water bandits, before he pulled out a brand-new black long sword from his waist, the previous Hundred Forging Qingfeng Sword was about to be scrapped after many battles, this one was matched by the army, the quality was better than the Hundred Forging Qingfeng Sword, the sharpness did not change much, but the texture was stronger.
