Chapter 230
In addition, the border of the Night Country is close to the Northern Wilderness Mountains, and from time to time there are fierce beasts attacking civilians around the city or caravans, so the army is also responsible for going to those areas where fierce beasts are frequent to exterminate fierce beasts.
As for the extermination of the beast, it sounds like exactly what the mercenary team is going to do, but on the one hand, it is passive, and on the other hand, it is active.
It is conceivable that the ordinary life of the big bull is not as plain as the original three imagined, practicing and eating in the barracks all day long, and there is nothing else to do. In fact, their lives are colorful, full of dangers and challenges.
Generally, to exterminate the fierce beast group or bandit organization, if you know the other party's information and send enough people. If they don't know the specific information, or if they get the wrong information, or if they have some accidents along the way, and eventually they don't have enough people to be sent, then they will face all kinds of dangers.
When Da Niu mentioned these situations, even the tone of his speech became nervous, and the three of them listened attentively, and the things that Da Niu said had a great impact on the three of them. Thinking about it carefully, their army often went to exterminate robbers and those powerful beast groups, which was a good thing for the mercenary team and ordinary city citizens, and Lin Xuanzhong admired their behavior very much.
I used to want to join the mercenary team, but now I'm also interested in joining the army. Due to the large number of people in the army, Lin Xuanzhong naturally thought that it would be safer to join the army than to join the mercenary team. Of course, the current era is not the same as before, there was no war before, and there would not have been tens of thousands of casualties.
Nowadays, battles between tens of thousands of people are commonplace, and joining the army is far more dangerous than being a mercenary. Even with the Eight Desolation Steps, Lin Xuanzhong still couldn't resist thousands of troops with the strength of one person. What's more, most of the generals in the army are seventh-order martial cultivators, and any one of them can easily kill the current Lin Xuanzhong.
Da Niu said a lot of things, and the three of them gradually realized that the Da Niu brothers had a dangerous experience, and their views on the two of them changed a lot.
Sometimes when it comes to things that the three people are interested in, the three of them will take the initiative to ask, and some important things Da Niu forgot to say, so Da Hu will add them. In this way, for a period of time, the three of them already have a full understanding of the military camp life of the Da Niu brothers.
In the end, Da Niu naturally did not forget to mention their general Zhao Xu, as the leader of the border army, Zhao Xu has a great background regardless of his personal strength and his own identity.
The three of them gradually learned that the name of the person who talked to the enemy general that night was Zhao Xu, who was the commander of the third battalion, and his status was higher than that of ordinary generals. Moreover, Zhao Xu also has a brother, who is the general of the garrison sergeant, who is in charge of all the military strength of Huangyan City plus the border army, and Zhao Wu is also an eighth-order martial artist who shocks the Quartet.
Zhao Wu is not only strong in personal strength, but his reputation is even more well-known in the Night Country, so he is qualified to serve as the commander of the 100,000 army. Of course, after Zhao Xu lost more than 20,000 soldiers, the real number of defenders in Huangyan City was less than 80,000.
Now the three of them are more concerned about the prestige of the two brothers, one is the general of the city guard, the other is the general of the border army, and the two brothers completely control the life and death of the 100,000 army.
For the three, the status of the two represents a supreme right. According to Da Niu, Zhao Wu is a famous general in the Night Kingdom, Wen Taowu is strategic, and he is proficient in everything.
Zhao Wu's deeds were widely spread in the Night Kingdom, and the hearts of the three of them were surging when they heard it, and if they saw Zhao Wu himself, they might be even more in awe.
Fearing the strong in the entire Northern Wilderness Continent is a kind of survival rule, and surviving in such an environment, the three of them themselves have the concept of fearing the strong, so although they have not seen Zhao Wu and witnessed these deeds about Zhao Wu, it does not affect the three of them to have a sense of awe for Zhao Wu.
The huge impact made Lin Xuanzhong remember his current situation, an ordinary martial artist with a problem. Qingyi is an ordinary martial artist who has no problems, and he is an ordinary martial artist who worships the strong without regrets, and the emotions of the three of them are mostly the same, but there are some differences in details. Anyway, after Da Niu talked about Zhao Wu's legendary deeds, the three of them were a little more yearning for joining the army.
"Have you fought before?" gradually calmed down, and asked again without regret.
"There have been frictions with the Snow Country's army before, but they haven't fought, so they haven't fought. The answer is that he has no regrets.
It's been peaceful all these years, and even in a remote place like theirs, there are very few wars, so there really hasn't been a war. After receiving Da Niu's affirmative reply, Ming Bu regretted thinking that it might be that they really fought a few days ago, and the Da Niu brothers would not know much more about war than themselves.
I couldn't help but be a little disappointed by this, because I wanted to know something about the war. Tomorrow the Snow Country army may come back to attack the city, if the Night Country wins, it will be fine, if it loses, they need to prepare in advance.
"Do we want to go to war tomorrow?" mentioned the siege of the Snow Army tomorrow, Lin Xuanzhong was also very interested.
"There hasn't been a notice yet, so we're going to have a good rest. Someone will come and let us know when they need us. There is indeed no clear news on whether to participate in the war, and Da Niu can only answer Lin Xuanzhong like this. In that case, those few people can only wait for news.
Now that the overall momentum of the night army has improved greatly, it is time to start a war with the other side. It has been a day since the royal decree was obtained, and in terms of reinforcements, the royal family of the Night Kingdom is mobilizing the bandit and beast suppression armies in various regions, divided into several groups and sent to the eastern border fortress.
Since the territory of the Night Kingdom is already in the northernmost part, there is no need to worry about people attacking the north, so after leaving a certain number of defenders to be responsible for suppressing bandits and hunting fierce beasts, all the soldiers who can be drawn are transferred to help in the battle.
And there is no war problem in the south of the Night Country bordering the allies, and there are only east and west sides that need to be defended, and now the Huangyan City where Lin Xuanzhong and them are located is located in the east, a node, with a population of one million, which is a big city in the Night Country.
If the Snow Army wants to destroy the Night Kingdom, they must take Huangyan Pass, first, to remove their worries, and secondly, to replenish their baggage, Huangyan Pass is the only route suitable for their march from the terrain.
If you go around from another position and directly attack the night country Kyoto, the risk is too great, so the battle of Huangyan Pass is inevitable. It is worth mentioning that after years of development, the Night Kingdom has continued to accumulate strength, not only have troops in the fortresses of all parties, but also secretly cultivate tens of thousands of elite soldiers.
Those tens of thousands of elite soldiers are the main force of the armies of all sides, and once they defeat the Snow Country army that was ordered to attack the Night Country, the Night Kingdom royal family will immediately order Zhao Wu to take the Snow Country Kyoto with lightning speed and crush the resistance of the Snow Country, and the same is true for the neighbors to the west.
In the past, the royal families of several countries had already negotiated to quickly take down their neighboring countries in a short period of time, double the original territory, and then ignore the attacks of other small countries, seize the time to recuperate, and wait until the real war begins, and compete with other major powers for the world.
Now that the world is in turmoil, small countries everywhere will either descend to a certain big country, or join forces to do a great job like the Night Country and several surrounding countries, and it will take time to verify the final result.
A hurried night passed, and early the next morning, three horns woke up Lin Xuanzhong and the others one after another, and at first they thought that the Snow Country army had come, so they got up and looked at each other, and then looked out of the room in a daze.
"That's the horn of the whole army, not a signal from the Snow Army, it's asking us soldiers to gather. ”
"What do you mean?" Da Niu said too directly, and Lin Xuanzhong didn't understand it once.
"There were only three horns in the horn just now, and generally when the army wants to line up, it will be used to remind the soldiers in this way, and now the general is summoning us, and Dahu and I will go out. ”
"So that's the case," after Da Niu explained, Lin Xuanzhong quickly understood what was going on, it seemed that when the Snow Country army came to attack the city today, Da Niu and they might have to go to war.
"Brother Ming, you guys have a good rest in the house, and Dahu and I will go out first. Saying that, the big bull had turned over, and the army demanded that they move quickly, although they usually had a quarter of an hour to prepare, but they did not dare to delay much here.
In a blink of an eye, the big tiger also got up, and the two left the house after a simple wash. The open door closed again, and the light in the room was much dimer, and the three people on the bed were no longer sleepy.
After the big bull brothers left, there was a sound of doors opening and people running outside, and everyone was rushing to the location where the horn came. Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, there was no sound in this building, and Lin Xuanzhong got down from the bed to take a look outside.
There was no one in the corridor on either side, except for the open doors, and it seemed that everyone had already gathered at yesterday's training ground, leaving only three people in the empty building.
When he returned to the house, he asked without regret, "Are you all gone?"
"En," Lin Xuanzhong nodded, and looked at Qing Yi on the bed again, now he really didn't know what the three of them could do.
"Qingyi, Brother Da Niu is not here, if there is anything difficult, you can talk to me and Qingfeng. After being confirmed by Lin Xuanzhong, Ming Buregret suddenly came to his senses, sat on the bed and looked at Qingyi.
Yesterday, I saw that Qingyi had something on his mind, probably because it was inconvenient for the big bull brothers to say, and now that he has the opportunity to know if he regrets it, he naturally wants to ask for clarification.
"It turns out that Brother Ming already knows," meeting Ming's unrepentant gaze, Qing Yi lost his mind for a moment before reacting, and said with a smile: "It's actually about joining the army." ”
didn't understand what the two were talking about, and Lin Xuanzhong, who returned to the bed, paid some attention to the conversation between the two with some confusion.
"If there is any difficulty, you don't have to say it, Qingfeng and I will consider it for you. Sure that his guess was correct, Ming said with a smile without regrets.
