Chapter 1: Soldiers Descend on the City

There was no suspense about the outcome of the battle, and the nearly 200,000 people of the Viper Legion, except for a few thousand who were scattered, all the others remained.

More than 40,000 were taken prisoner, and the rest were all exterminated.

Of course, with such a result, the Blue Dragon Legion also had a lot of losses, with nearly 100,000 casualties, of which more than 40,000 were killed!

It can really be said that you have killed a thousand enemies and lost 800 yourself!

On the third day after the battle, Zhou Xiaozhan led all the soldiers and horses of Qinglong City to arrive, and pushed the camp forward one hundred and fifty miles, and set up camp twenty miles away from the Snake King City, where the Viper Legion was stationed.

Qinglong City and Snake King City were the barriers of the Tianyun Empire and the Congyun Empire against each other respectively, and the two cities were less than three hundred miles apart, and there was a buffer zone in between.

Although the duel between Fang Tong and Dugu Dao was only a precursor to the war between the two countries, its victory or defeat also determined that the losing side would be under the city.

After decades of war, both sides won and lost each other, so the two cities were not exempt from being attacked by soldiers, and the traces left by the war on the walls of Qinglong City are the best proof of this, and the same is true of the opposite Snake King City.

This time the Congyun Empire provoked a war, of course, the Tianyun Empire not only planned to defeat them and finish the matter, they also wanted to take this opportunity to destroy the Congyun Empire and reintegrate its provinces into the territory of the Tianyun Empire.

This time, the Blue Dragon Legion not only came to the city of the Snake King again, but also ate two-fifths of the strength of the Viper Legion, which can be said to be the most dominant one for the two empires to fight for decades.

After Zhou Xiaojun arrived, he didn't care about rewarding the three armies, so he rushed straight to the Snake King City with hundreds of thousands of people non-stop, he didn't want to give the Viper Legion time to deploy defenses outside the city.

However, after all, this is a rare big victory, so it is still necessary to reward the three armies, otherwise the morale of the whole army will inevitably be affected if there is no reward for meritorious service.

Yesterday, the army had moved forward to the predetermined place, and today was the time for Zhou Xiaojun to reward the three armies, and the evening was also the time for the whole army to revel.

The camp of the Blue Dragon Legion, the commander's tent.

Zhou Xiaojun, who was the commander of the legion, was sitting on the handsome seat, and there were eight people sitting below, namely the head of the five masters of the Blue Dragon Legion and the three brothers of Zhou Yunlong.

Originally, the three brothers of Zhou Yunlong were not qualified to sit here, even if they were from the Zhou family, after all, this was in the military camp and not in the Zhou family.

But because of this great victory, the Fengyun Mercenary Regiment and the 7,000 people led by Zhou Yunlong not only made great contributions, but also made the first contribution, annihilating tens of thousands of prisoners, and Zhou Yunfeng even killed Yun Xutao and Fang Tong, two division commanders, and two other martial emperors.

It is precisely because of these merits, coupled with their identities, that Zhou Xiaojun made an exception to arrange them in the tent.

"Come, let's drink this cup together, and congratulate the three division commanders of Dugu Dao, Wu Tianlei, and Wu Tianhuo for breaking through the enemy army and making great contributions!" Zhou Xiaojun raised the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile.

"Congratulations! Congratulations to the three of you! Brother Dugu is really not old!" Long Qingshan said with a smile.

"Brother Tianhuo, it's really a solitary eat! I killed Xu Mad without making a sound, who do you think I, the commander of the Fourth Division of the Blue Dragon Legion, should go to in the future?" Chu Han looked at Wu Tianhuo and scolded with a smile.

The three brothers of Zhou Yunlong also raised the wine glass in their hands, but they didn't say anything, because this was all a joke between their elders, and they were not easy to interject.

All nine drank the wine from their glasses.

"It's not bad to beat those rabbit cubs of the Viper Legion this time, but if you want to say that it is the credit of my Dugu Dao, I deserve it! The three brothers of Zhou Yunfeng are really young heroes! If it weren't for the appearance of the Fengyun Mercenary Group, I don't know how long the confrontation between me and Fang Tong would last?" Dugu Dao said with a smile.

"Brother Dugu is right! If it weren't for the fact that they had cooked Yun Xutao's 40,000 people in advance, Bai Shan would not have come to support me, I'm afraid that I would only fight with Xu Crazy to defeat both sides, and it would be impossible to kill him. Wu Tianhuo also agreed.

"Although the Fengyun Mercenary Regiment is strong, I think it may not be easy to destroy Yun Xutao's 40,000 people, but I didn't expect that when Bai Shan arrived, not only did they end the battle, but even the battlefield was almost cleaned!

"The three uncles have won the award!Yun Feng is a little embarrassed!" Zhou Yunfeng smiled a little embarrassedly.

Now it is a celebration banquet, and it can be regarded as private, so Zhou Yunfeng did not call them the head of the division, but called his uncle.

"Stinky boy, don't pretend, I'm afraid you'll be happy in your heart! You have indeed made a great contribution this time, and the reward for your Fengyun mercenary will be delivered to you as soon as possible." Zhou Xiaojun scolded with a smile.

"It's still the uncle who understands Feng'er's thoughts, but my brothers are looking forward to it!" Zhou Yunfeng said with a smile.

For the reward given by Zhou Xiaojun, Zhou Yunfeng will not postpone it, this thing is what they deserve, if these things are Zhou Xiaojun himself, Zhou Yunfeng may still consider resigning, but these things come out of the Tianyun Empire, Zhou Yunfeng will not be polite!

"Uncle, I don't know when the commission of our Fengyun mercenary group will be given to us?" Zhou Yunfeng asked.

The reward must be received, but Zhou Yunfeng will not give up the gold coins that should be obtained, after all, those soldiers still have military merits, but their mercenary group only has gold coins, so this kind of thing must not be sloppy.

"You kid, just know that you are worried, don't worry, there will be no shortage of you! When the Fengyun Mercenary Group arrived in Qinglong City, I had already applied to the empire for this fee, and the amount was not small, it depends on whether you can get it all!" Zhou Xiaojun said with a smile.

The commission given by the empire to kill the enemy army is clearly marked, and Emperor Wu rarely appears in the army, but it also gives a clear price, and the minimum requirement for the empire to recruit troops is a samurai, that is to say, there is a price from the samurai to the Emperor Wu.

Martial Emperor: One million gold coinsCommander: 500,000 gold coinsDivision Leader: 300,000 gold coinsOne turn Martial Emperor to Nine Turns Martial Emperor: 200,000 to 290,000 gold coinsOne turn Martial King to Nine Martial King: 10,000 to 90,000 gold coinsOne Star Martial Master to Nine Star Martial Artist: 1,000 to 550 gold coinsOne-star Warrior to Nine-Star Warrior: Ten to 55 gold coinsThe strength of a division leader is not necessarily a Martial Emperor, the reason why the current five division commanders of the Blue Dragon Legion are all Martial Emperors is based on the accumulation of decades of recuperation, this is also because they are the main station legion, if it is an ordinary city guard, it is difficult for their division commander to reach the Martial Emperor。

The same is true for the legion commanders, not all the legion commanders are Martial Emperors, just like Zhou Xiaojun is already a Martial Emperor powerhouse now, and Yun Xuyang, the legion leader of the Viper Legion, is also a Martial Emperor strongman.

Therefore, the commission price of the corps commander and division commander is not set in stone, if the killed corps commander and division commander are both martial emperor powerhouses, then their commissions are 500,000 gold coins and 300,000 gold coins respectively. But if the division commander is not the Martial Emperor, but the Martial King, then his commission is to add 50,000 gold coins to his strength. And if the legion commander is a Martial Emperor powerhouse, then his price is to add 100,000 gold coins to one million.

In addition, the strong Martial Emperor will not change due to the change in strength, as long as it is the Martial Emperor, whether it is a Martial Emperor or a Nine Tribulation Martial Emperor, then the commission is one million gold coins.

No one said anything about this seemingly unfair commission, because on the battlefield, the strong man of the Martial Emperor was killed by the mercenary group, and this kind of thing may not happen once in eight hundred years, so no one argues about this issue.

In addition, the commission for capturing and killing is the same, but few mercenary groups are willing to choose to capture soldiers, because that would be too troublesome, because killing is much easier and faster than captives, and it also makes a lot more money.

"Uncle, you don't have to be so detailed when calculating commissions, Yun Xutao's 40,000 people, except for Yun Xutao and the Martial Emperor, will be divided equally between the Fengyun Mercenary Group and the 7,000 people of the eldest brother!" Zhou Yunfeng said with a smile.

Although there were less than 3,000 people in the Fengyun mercenary group, and Zhou Yunlong led 7,000 people, everyone here knew that Zhou Yunfeng did not take advantage of Zhou Yunlong, on the contrary, Zhou Yunlong took advantage.

"Third brother, how can this be done?" Zhou Yunlong hurriedly said, he, the eldest brother, didn't want to take advantage of his younger brother.

"Big brother, what's wrong with this, it's all your own brothers! It's a military merit for you, and it's just gold coins for us, and the two most valuable martial emperors are ours, and it doesn't matter how many of the rest are! Don't shirk it!" Zhou Yunfeng said with a smile.

"It's okay! Those tens of thousands of people are really troublesome to count!" Zhou Xiaojun smiled.

Even so, the harvest of the Fengyun Mercenary Group this time is not small, just killing five Martial Emperor powerhouses, two of them are division commanders, and the commission is already millions, plus half of Yun Xutao's 40,000 people, and the thousands of horned horse cavalry they intercepted at the most rear, the commission is not a small amount.

"Yun Feng, I'm afraid you have to earn two or three million gold coins in this battle, you have to drink alcohol!" Dugu Dao said with a smile.

"Uncle Dugu, although we have made a little money, it is all from that desperate effort, but this time we killed Fang Tong and they did take advantage of you!

"Even if you kid still has a little conscience, we all beat Fang Tong's old guy to a serious injury, and he was almost the last blow, I didn't expect that the old boy to want to escape, and the last one was cheaper for you!" Wu Tianlei scolded with a smile.

"Uncle Wu, you can't blame us for this, we don't mean to compete with you. We were originally there to get a few wildebeest for the brothers of the fifth battalion and give them some decent mounts, but we didn't expect Fang Tong to be in it. You said that if we don't want the gold coins sent to the door, wouldn't that be too sorry for Fang Tong's thoughts?" Zhou Yunhu said with a smile.

"You kid has a crooked reasoning! That's right, Fang Tong died so many people for him, and the last thing he did was to send you gold coins!

Although Zhou Yunfeng did rob them of their exploits, they didn't care about it, not to mention that Zhou Yunfeng was a junior, and they should have taken care of them, just said that this big victory was because of the Fengyun Mercenary Group, so they didn't care about it.
