In the middle of the night, a thick night shrouded the land, and the streets near the temple were still brightly lit, but the rest of the place was basically dark.

In a small alley not far from the Immortal Temple, a down-and-out middle-aged man staggered, drunk and drunk, and carrying a wine jug in his hand.

"Drink, step...... Keep drinking!"

Xu Wenbin muttered alone, continuing to drink as he walked. With a haggard face and white temples, he looks like an old drunkard, and he no longer has the demeanor of the former Night Dragon Guard.

The rank of the Night Dragonguard is somewhat unique, and it is completely different from ordinary troops. Above the ordinary Night Dragon Guards, there are elite seven-person squad leaders and captains, and the Night Dragon Guards under the command of the captain can be as high as thirty. Above the captain is the General of the Night Dragon Guard, who can command more than 200 people in ten Night Dragon Brigades. Above the Night Dragon General, there is the famous Night Dragon General, and usually, one Night Dragon General can rule over three Night Dragon Generals.

Xu Wenbin's cultivation is not high, only cultivated to the peak of the Quartet Realm, but he is calm, known for his proficiency in the art of war, from the beginning of the most ordinary Night Dragon* to the squad leader, and then the captain and the Night Dragon Guard General, although there is no big victory, but there is almost no big defeat, there are many times surrounded by a large number of enemy troops, everyone thought that he was going to be wiped out, but he escaped with the troops, known as the general of the common defeat, proficient in the art of war and extremely experienced. It's a pity that the rumors offended someone, and when the future was unlimited, he was suddenly demoted to an ordinary Night Dragon Guard, and in the end, he couldn't even keep the reputation of the Night Dragon Guard, and was demoted to a city defense squad leader, and suffered from the eyes and criticism of many people, and since then he has been in a state of collapse.

In the dark, Hong Yuan sat in the carriage and silently looked at the roster in his hand with the help of the hazy moonlight.

This seemingly inconspicuous roster embodies Zhao Xuemin's hard work, and she has secretly made an in-depth understanding of everyone on the roster, including the defeated general Xu Wenbin, who records Xu Wenbin's cultivation, personality, background and achievements in detail. It's a pity, perhaps because of the limited space, why Xu Wenbin was demoted did not make it clear.

"Drink, there is wine today, get drunk today, continue to drink ......"

Xu Wenbin staggered, drunk and seemed to be about to fall to the ground at any time, walking, and then suddenly saw a carriage parked in the alley.

The moonlight was hazy, there was a thick layer of dark clouds in the sky, the walls on both sides of the alley were very high, and there was a row of trees planted on one side, and the alley was almost dark. Xu Wenbin seemed to be really drunk, and he didn't react for a while, and kept rubbing his eyes thinking it was his delusion. The people who live in the alleys are poor, and food and clothing are a problem, and there are no horse-drawn carriages here almost all year round.

"Hehe, carriages, there will be carriages here, too?"

Xu Wenbin was full of alcohol, his head was still dizzy, he took a few steps forward, and saw the night dragon totem with teeth and claws on the carriage, and then he paused.

There are many alliance masters, and there are many powerful people, but there are definitely not many who are qualified to ride this kind of carriage, either the elders of several big families, or the top alliance masters;

Who is it that suddenly came to this small place, and what are you here for?

Xu Wenbin was surprised, and gradually sobered up and came back to his senses.

"My lord, the person you are looking for is here. ”

The Blood Bat King walked to the back of the carriage and respectfully lifted the bead curtain.

In order to find Xu Wenbin quickly, he used some small means to park the carriage in the alley and wait for a long time. Honestly confessed, and the city guards who told Xu Wenbin's residence, the Blood Bat King didn't move a single hair of their hair, and the uninteresting city guards didn't do much, under the restraint of Hong Yuan, the Blood Bat King didn't dare to easily kill in the city, but suddenly opened a pair of bat wings to scare them half to death.

Hong Yuan put away the roster and slowly stepped out of the carriage.

"Hey, yes...... Is that you?"

Xu Wenbin took a few steps back, his face solemn. Suddenly seeing Hong Yuan, the youngest Night Dragon warrior in the history of the Alliance, was a little surprised and a little uneasy.

"It's me, General Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time. Hong Yuan replied.

"You...... , specifically for me?"

Xu Wenbin took a deep breath, secretly reached out and held the handle of the knife on his waist, his face became even more solemn. The battle of Slender Dog Ridge is vivid, in that battle, all the seven or eight night dragon guards who accompanied him died, and he was the only one who survived, and he also witnessed the horror of Hong Yuan. If Hong Yuan came to take revenge tonight, Xu Wenbin asked himself that he had no chance of winning at all, and he was basically dead.

What's more, Hong Yuan's status today is already extraordinary, and he has become a high-flying Night Dragon warrior at a young age, and he is very popular in Night Dragon City. Even if you are lucky enough to escape, I am afraid that you will be quickly chased and killed by many people.

In Night Dragon City and even in the entire alliance, it is easy for a Night Dragon Warrior to kill a small city defender!

Xu Wenbin's heart became heavier and heavier, and he knew that he couldn't escape if he wanted to. In fact, when he followed Chu Tianyang out of the city to chase Hong Yuan and witnessed the latter's bravery, he knew that this day would come. Private fights are strictly forbidden in Night Dragon City, but these rules are only for civilians and have no binding effect on a powerful Night Dragon Warrior.

"Yes, specifically for you. ”

Hong Yuan nodded, and saw Xu Wenbin's worries, and said in a changed tone: "Don't worry, I didn't come to you to settle accounts, I don't blame you for the original incident, and it has long passed." I'm here tonight to invite you to join my Hong family. ”

"Hong Jiajun?"

Xu Wenbin was very surprised, in the past two days, he also heard the news that Hong Yuan had recruited a large number of troops in various parts of the alliance, but he didn't expect Hong Yuan to come to the door.

"That's right, it's the Hong Family Army, an iron-blooded army that specializes in going to the front line to fight with dragon-blooded warriors! There are super loose cultivators hidden in the people, there are folk strange people with unique magical powers, and more are young people who fight for the alliance with enthusiasm, they are the warriors of our alliance, and they are also the future heroes of the alliance!"

Hong Yuan paused and said: "Now, the alliance warriors already have it, and they do not lack the strength and courage to fight to the death with the dragon blood warriors of the Hualong Empire, but what they lack is a military soul commander. General Xu, you are the person I am looking for, join the Hong family army together and fight with us. Let the world know that you will always be a League Hero!"

"Huh, Alliance Hero?"

Xu Wenbin smiled and took a big sip of wine with his head raised, "Young Master Hong, thank you for your lift, but I'm afraid you don't know me well enough." A general who is often defeated, a loser who has fallen to the point where he can't even be the captain of the city defense squad, what qualifications do he have to be called a hero of the alliance?"

After knowing Hong Yuan's intention, Xu Wenbin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but another bitter feeling came to his heart. Going to the front line to fight with the dragon-blooded warriors was already a distant thing for him, and some things were unbearable. Hong Yuan's words may make a young man's blood boil, but it has no effect on him, he has already passed the age of blood boiling.

"A general who often wins battles is a good general, but a general who is often defeated, but always retains the strength to fight again, is even more rare. As long as there are enough fierce and heroic subordinates, it is not difficult to achieve victory, and those who can lead a group of rabble or recruits to survive tenaciously on the battlefield again and again, and train them into the elite of a hundred battles, that is the real god of war!"

Hong Yuan looked at Xu Wenbin, and his tone was sincere, "General Xu, the Hong family army is a start-up, they are all inexperienced recruits, with enthusiasm and corresponding calls to go to the front line to fight for the alliance, they are the future and hope of the alliance, can you bear to watch them all die on the front line? Everyone says that I Hong Yuan is omnipotent, and I am the youngest and most powerful night dragon general in the history of the alliance, in fact, I know best in my heart, I am just a pawn who has just debuted, and I don't understand anything." General Xu, the Hong family army can't do without you, join us and lead us to fight together!"

Xu Wenbin was silent and did not refuse again, looking at Hong Yuan with a little more surprise and strangeness, he didn't expect Hong Yuan to say this. Every Night Dragon Warlord is a high-ranking existence inside and outside the Alliance, a great man who is in charge of armies and kills, and can enjoy people's worship and endless glory and wealth. A Night Dragon Warrior like Hong Yuan is absolutely unprecedented in the history of the Alliance!

"General Xu, if you need silver taels or something, just ask. Hong Yuan struck while the iron was hot.

Xu Wenbin was still silent, and took another sip of wine with his head raised, and the smell of wine on his body became stronger.

"You don't need silver taels, how about the treasure exercises? You can do whatever you want, even if you say that as long as you can find it in this Night Dragon City, I will definitely bring it to you!"

Hong Yuan continued to increase his weight, and now, there are more and more masters under his command, there are super demons like Hong Python and Zhu Wuji, there are top masters like Feng Qianbo and Ouyang Mu, and what is lacking is a master of the art of war like Xu Wenbin. The Ghost Five Marches have been in the army for many years, and their attainments in the art of war are also quite good, but there is still a big gap compared with Xu Wenbin, who is known as a defeated general. According to Zhao Xuemin's roster, Xu Wenbin is the most powerful master of the art of war in the alliance, and there is no one.

"If you are worried that the soldiers do not have enough cultivation and combat effectiveness, I can transfer a group of elite cavalry to join you, and even, if you want a team of Daredevil warriors, it is no problem to obey your orders and commands!"

Hong Yuan continued to increase his bargaining chips and was thirsty for talent, and the role of a top commander on the battlefield exceeded 3,000 dead soldiers.

Zhao Xuemin's roster is quite complete, and the only regret is that he didn't point out where Xu Wenbin's weakness or weakness was, and I don't know if Zhao Xuemin didn't find out clearly, or forgot to add this item in a hurry. Of course, there is another possibility, that is, in Zhao Xuemin's eyes, Xu Wenbin has no weakness, so it is amazing!

Xu Wenbin still didn't answer, and after a long while, he broke the silence, "Young Master Hong, I don't want anything about silver taels and exercises, there is only one very tricky condition." ”

"General Xu, please speak!" Hong Yuan's eyes lit up, and he saw the hope of a smooth recruitment.

"I have a brother named Chu Ao, who is locked up in the dungeon of the Night Dragon Palace. As long as the son rescues him, he is willing to be a cow and a horse for you!" Xu Wenbin's voice was hoarse, and after a pause, he added: "My brother committed the capital crime of assassinating Hua Yueye, and he took the normal way, and no one could help him get rid of the crime, so he could only rescue him privately." Many years ago, it was because of the prison robbery that I made Hua Yueye angry, and I was demoted to an ordinary Night Dragon Guard. ”

"Your brother, is it the capital crime of assassinating Hua Yueye?"

Hong Yuan's head is big, and Xu Wenbin's condition is really tricky. Xu Wenbin didn't say it, Hong Yuan didn't know that there was such a fierce person in the alliance, and he dared to assassinate the ruthless Hua Yue Ye, this person was too fierce!

"Yes, my brother was seriously injured after the failed assassination. According to the information secretly revealed by insiders, the injuries have become more and more serious over the years, and they will not be able to survive if they are not rescued. Xu Wenbin sighed, raised his head and poured another sip of wine, and staggered past Hong Yuan, "Life, this is fate, no one can change what is destined to happen." Hong Gongzi, thank you for the invitation, please come back!"

Xu Wenbin also knew that things were tricky, and it was even an impossible requirement to meet, so he took the initiative to leave without waiting for Hong Yuan to refuse.

"Slow, General Xu, I promise you, I'll do it tomorrow night!" Hong Yuan suddenly stopped Xu Wenbin.

Xu Wenbin stopped, turned around and looked at Hong Yuan in disbelief, a little incredulous for a moment. The Blood Bat King was the same, thinking that he had misheard, and then, a fine bead of sweat appeared on his forehead and he tensed. Xu Wenbin's request is not only tricky, but also contains huge risks, regardless of whether he can rescue people or not, once Hua Yueye knows, then he still has it?
