CHAPTER XXXV

On July 24, 174 A.D., Sun Jingyu's Fourth Legion arrived at Kefield, where he and his army were greeted by a city without a garrison.

As expected, Li Yuxuan and his "homeland" guards still ran away.

Standing under the walls of Kefield, Sun Jingyu looked at the road to the north.

His legions of ironclad infantry were now pouring into Kefield from his side.

"Report to the general, there are about two million catties of grain in the city, many of which have been loaded into trucks, but have not been transported, and it is obvious that the 'homeland' was quite chaotic when it retreated. A scout galloped out of the city and came to Sun Jingyu to report.

"I really didn't expect that this guy Bramitch would have so much food in store, and Li Yuxuan's kid moved for three or four days, and there was still so much left. Sun Jingyu muttered to herself.

"Someone!" Sun Jingyu was obviously about to give an order.

As soon as several lieutenants saw the commander shouting, they all hurriedly ran over.

"Quickly send people to reconnoiter the road to the north, since the 'homeland' carries a large amount of military rations, then they will definitely not go too far!" After giving the order, Sun Jingyu jumped on his war horse and followed the troops into the city.

Former Carroll Palace, night.

Sun Jingyu was now lying on the same bed that Carol's last king had slept in, and the comfort and comfort that satisfied him who had slept in the barracks for several months.

Chinese New Year's Eve, seventeen-year-old Sun Jingyu was not brought up step by step by a soldier. He is a descendant of a big family in Fengxiang, and he has been fond of swords since he was a child, and he is a rare general among Fengxiang's traditional nobles. But this does not mean that his position as a general was earned by connections. In Fengxiang's military circles, he can be regarded as a rare wise general. When he was a teenager, he was also a highly talented student at Fengxiang Fengxiang Academy.

Due to the above two reasons, he not only held an important position in the Fengxiang Army and was one of the commanders of the four major army corps of Fengxiang, but also had a close relationship with the "main peace faction" headed by Jiang He, and was a rare "two-faced" faction in the Fengxiang army. It is precisely because of this that during Feng Shaojun's tenure as the military secretary, the Fourth Army was placed in the south, away from the battlefield of the Northern Expedition, which made Sun Jingyu lose a chance to show his talents, and the other three commanders were all in the limelight in this war. For this reason, Sun Jingyu was very dissatisfied with Feng Shaojun in his heart, and he also held a grudge against the commanders of the other two legions, Bramitch and Gongye Ruiliang.

This time, he defeated Bramic's Second Army and recaptured Kefield, which can be regarded as "getting ahead". This feeling of excitement and refreshment is incomprehensible to others. And his opponent and boss Feng Shaojun also died in Fengcheng. When he got the news, he was so excited that he almost wanted to jump. Since mid-April, good fortune seems to have been following him, and everything is going well. Now he is even more sure in his heart that the goddess of victory is on his side, and this battle with the "homeland" will not be an exception. I will definitely be able to fight a beautiful war of annihilation and wipe out this ragtag army. At that time, the entire Fengxiang military world will be the world of my grandson Jingyu.

The thirty-seven-year-old military affairs secretary is definitely the youngest one in the hundred years since the founding of Fengxiang. In fact, when he became the commander of the Fourth Legion of the Kingdom seven years ago, he was the youngest legion commander in Fengxiang's history. Unexpectedly, only in the second year after he sat in this position, Gongye Ruiliang, who was only twenty-three years old, won the "Youth Martial Arts Competition", and sat in the position of commander of the second legion of the kingdom under the recommendation of Feng Shaojun, taking away the "title" of the youngest legion commander in the kingdom from himself. It was also from that day that he held a grudge against Feng Shaojun and Gongye Ruiliang.

When I sit in the position of military secretary, I must pull you down from the position of commander of the legion!"

Lying on the bed, Sun Jingyu had a sinister smile on her face.

Just like every opponent who underestimated Li Yuxuan, Sun Jingyu at this moment is also fantasizing about his dream of defeating the "homeland".

Just as Sun Jingyu was lying on the bed in a daze and fantasizing about his victory, a scout burst into his room.

"Report to the general, the cavalry who found the 'homeland' fifty miles away from the city are now slowly moving northward because of the escort of military rations. ”

"Very good, as I expected! Li Yuxuan, Li Yuxuan, you also underestimate me too much, and you still bite the bone and refuse to let go when you die!"

Sun Jingyu jumped up from the bed, now his mind was full of victory, and he had completely ignored the danger of possible existence.

"Summons the whole army to assemble!"

"What the hell are you doing in the middle of the night!" a soldier came out of the tent and muttered as he drove to the school grounds.

"That's it, don't let Lao Tzu sleep! Lao Tzu has been on the road for three days, and he finally fell asleep, and what kind of ghost horn is blowing!" A soldier beside him was also full of displeasure.

"Let's go, I'm delayed, if I'm accidentally late, I'll get a baton!" a veteran hurriedly ran past the two.

When the two of them heard this, they immediately quickened their pace and followed. It seems that the taste of the military stick is not very good.

The mournful wails echoed in the school grounds, and the seventeen late soldiers were each punished with twenty military sticks, and Sun Jingyu, who stood on the review stand, supervised the entire process of enforcing the military law.

"This must not be allowed in my military. If there is a violation of the military order, this is the end!" Sun Jingyu glanced at the seventeen soldiers in the audience who were wailing, and continued, "Now that the enemy's army has been discovered fifty miles away from the city, our army will take advantage of the victory to pursue and wipe out the stragglers of the 'homeland' in one fell swoop. This is the time when a man serves the country and establishes meritorious deeds, and those who disturb our military discipline will be killed!"

"Yes!" the voices of fifteen thousand soldiers at the same time were as loud as thunder.

"Very good, let's go!"

Sun Jingyu stepped onto the war horse and walked at the front of the entire queue.

As the army left the north gate of Kefield, Sun Jingyu glanced back at the majestic walls of Kefield and the crescent moon hanging in the corner of the tower.

It was a night of pursuing the enemy, the cold moonlight spread on the ground, and every qiē around it could be seen clearly, and his 15,000 ironclad army stretched from the city gate to the distance.

I'm going to win.

The current Sun Jingyu would never have imagined that this would be the last time he would see the walls of Kefield in his lifetime.
