Chapter 227: Please be the commander-in-chief
The clean-up of the battlefield was barely completed until the sun set, and only 130,000 of the corpses of the 150,000 Xuanwu soldiers were found, of which only 60,000 could be found with household registration.
Li Yan was seriously injured, and many soldiers were also in a mess, but fortunately, there were more than ten military doctors who came with the army, although the medical skills were not as good as the alchemist, and even less than Mo Bai, but at this critical juncture, the distant water could not save the fire, and the old man of the Demon Beast Hall selflessly took out several bottles of the traumatic medicine given to him with a knife, and the product of the God King Hall was definitely priceless, and the effect was excellent.
After ordering the Demon Beast to carry all the soldiers and corpses onto the camp on the mountain range, and after placing them, the Twelve led the people of the Divine King Hall into the Xuanwu camp.
The lightly wounded soldiers spontaneously began to stand guard and patrol, and after a fierce battle, everyone had a sad expression on their faces, their eyes were solemn, and their eyebrows were full of fierce color, which was a deep hatred for the white tiger! As long as they thought that their brothers and companions were shot by them and died tragically at their hands, they gritted their teeth with hatred.
One by one, they were like lone wolves, with red eyes.
Twelve and one dressed in black robes, the Zhuxian sword in her hand has been put into the ring by her, and she entered the camp from the fence in the center of the humble tower of the sentry, and she was definitely treated no less than Li Yan, the commander of the three armies.
No one will forget who brought them this big victory.
No one will forget who turned the tide.
Twelve walked slowly from the gate of the barracks to the commander's tent, looked at the sky, the geese were returning to their nests, and a large area of burning clouds almost burned the entire sky, frowning slightly, the old man of the Demon Beast Hall immediately spoke: "Miss Sima don't have to worry, the king will definitely return." β
Jun, because of the twelve's reluctance to inherit the God King Palace, Ling Yuhan naturally became the next hall master, although at present it is only temporarily replacing Yidao in power, but everyone knows in their hearts that the next king must be him.
As a result, they have changed their names in secret, and they are no longer envoys, but more noble, more unattainable kings!
"Yes. Twelve responded indifferently, the soldiers outside the commander's tent saw her coming, immediately saluted respectfully, opened the curtain, and welcomed her in, the military doctor was bandaging Li Yan's wounds, layers of white bandages, tightly wrapped around the chest and abdomen, the upper body was naked, and the twelve eyes did not squint and sat on the rosewood chair at the bottom of the main tent, the old man of the Warcraft Hall stayed outside, and soon the soldiers respectfully sent refreshments, Li Yan was a little embarrassed, after all, he was a man, no matter how rough he was, he was not calm enough to be naked in front of a daughter's house, although he was just bandaging the woundsγ
The military doctor is over half a hundred years old, and he couldn't help but see the eldest girl of twelve enter the main tent, and sit down, his heart was shocked, and he looked at her like a ghost, how could anyone look at the man's naked body openly?
"How is your injury?" Twelve picked up the tea cup next to his elbow, the tea was not of the highest quality, in this barren mountain and wilderness, it would be good to have something to drink, Twelve was not picky, and sent it straight into his mouth, dressed in black, his ponytail hung down at will, and his eyebrows were cold.
Li Yan said in a deep voice: "It's not strict." β
"General, your injuries should rest for at least half a month, especially internal injuries, if they are not cured, they will definitely leave hidden dangers in the future. The medic frowned disapprovingly and warned.
In normal times, Li Yan might still have the mind to recuperate, but now, it is just a small victory, he only has 50,000 soldiers under his command, and all of them are injured, and several lieutenant generals are all useless.
In any case, he cannot fall! He is the commander of the three armed forces and the backbone of these more than 50,000 people! Everyone can fall, but he cannot.
A trace of appreciation flashed in Twelve's quiet eyes, and he said, "I sent all the corpses of the white tiger outside the barracks, and when the sun falls, I will burn them all." β
"Is this to crush the bones and scatter ashes?" Li Yan was startled, but in an instant, he thought that the White Tiger Iron Cavalry had trampled on half of the Xuanwu River, and there were even more than 100,000 people who died in their hands, and it was already light to crush their bones and scatter ashes, he nodded heavily, and a murderous aura swept between his eyebrows: "Okay! I will order the soldiers to cremate all those corpses." β
Twelve originally didn't think about any crushing bones and ashes and cremating those corpses, first, to prevent the plague, and secondly, to deter the other two soldiers of the White Tiger, as well as Bai Zimo! Sima Xiong's 70,000 male lions, she can block them, or even destroy them all, if Bai Zimo still thinks that he can recklessly take the Xuanwu country, then this will be a lesson for him!
Twelve asked herself if she was a good person, since she decided to make a move, then, her purpose was naturally to win!
"What are you going to do next? retreat, or stay put, or raise troops to recapture the city closest to Mohe?" Twelve raised his eyebrows, looked at Li Yan, and asked in a cold voice.
Li Yan didn't think that there was anything wrong with her, a girl who didn't have an official and a half-job, to meddle in military affairs, after all, the strong people in the Xuanwu Continent were respected, and the fact that Twelve could turn the tide was enough to prove that she had this strength, not to mention, if she was there, the military heart would be stable! Not to mention the hundreds of demonic beasts, she alone could overturn the Xuannu Palace, and her strength was probably already strong against the sky, and with her here, Li Yan's confidence was a little more.
"I plan to recuperate first, and now there are too many wounded in the army to move long. Li Yan let the military doctor bandage his wounds while discussing with Twelve.
"That's right, now there are still two groups of people in the White Tiger who are heading for the Jingshi, but the people from the Divine King Hall have already gone to obstruct it, so there should be good news tonight. The twelve indifferent words, but the words that could be said made Li Yan jump up from the wooden chair excitedly, trembling all over, and his lips trembling at a loss.
"I ...... You ......, "Did he hear it wrong?" The people from the Divine King Palace? The people from the Divine King Palace actually dispatched? And they also went to block the remaining soldiers and horses of the White Tiger with two arrows? Li Yan thought that he had auditory hallucinations, and the Divine King Hall was above the Four Kingdoms, and its status could be said to be extremely noble, how could he go out for a mere Xuanwu?
"When the good news comes, I will let them join here, and all the people on the three lines will be condensed into a rope, and then take back the cities captured by the White Tiger one by one!" Twelve eyes were firm, and there was arrogance between her eyebrows, since she stood on Xuanwu's side, then, she would inevitably recover Xuanwu's cities one by one, so that Bai Zimo's ambition would eventually collapse in her hands!
As long as Suzaku and Qinglong do not move, she doesn't believe that Bai Zimo can overturn this day!
Twelve is very confident, although she is not ten percent sure of defeating Bai Zimo, but she is not afraid of him! If she wants to fight, she will fight! Who has she been afraid of?
It doesn't matter if you are a Buddha in the heavens or an underground Hades, she is not afraid!
"You...... Are you from the Divine King Palace?" Li Yan pointed to the twelve and exclaimed in surprise.
"Sort of. Twelve nodded calmly, after all, she can command the entire God King Palace, and now the steward of the God King Hall happens to be her partner, naturally, she is also a person in the God King Palace, Twelve deliberately forgot a knife, after all, he owes Sima Ruyi too much, she has long passed the age of looking forward to family affection, that kind of ethereal dream, she has long since stopped it.
Li Yan took a deep breath and glanced at the military doctor, who finished his work with interest, nodded at Twelve, and left the tent.
"Sima Ruyi, can I ask you for something?" Li Yan said solemnly, his eyes solemn.
Twelve's heart jumped, and he put the tea cup in his hand on the low table next to his elbow, and bowed slightly: "You say." β
This commander who can bend and stretch, and is extremely bloody, she admires it in her heart, but it doesn't stop there.
"Please be the commander of the three armies! Lead us to recover all the lost cities!" Li Yan made this request after thinking calmly, first, the twelve are strong, and today they are able to turn the tide, and their prestige in the army is not inferior to him, and second, she is a person in the palace of the god king, and it seems that her status is not low, so as long as she is willing to take over the commander of the three armies, Xuanwu will not be crushed by the white tiger! They will not be trapped, they can only be beaten, and they have no power to fight back? What's more, she once helped Xuanwu defeat the Three Kingdoms in the Four Nations Competition, such a brilliant record, coupled with all the sensational events she has done for many days, she is definitely qualified to become the commander of the three armies!
Twelve was stunned and pointed at himself: "Me?"
"Yes, please agree no matter what," Li Yan took down a piece of tiger talisman jade from the top of the long case, walked steadily in front of Twelve, and stared at her sternly, "If it were you, I believe that no one in the whole army would oppose it, if it was you, I believe that you would definitely be able to lead Xuanwu, recover the city, and raise my Xuanwu prestige!"
Li Yan has no wolf ambitions, he has a pure heart for Xuanwu, since there has been a capable person who is more suitable for this tiger talisman than himself, he voluntarily gave up the position of coach, as long as Xuanwu can no longer be oppressed by other countries, even if it is to let a girl be the coach, he is willing.
There was a slight glint in the twelve eyes, she didn't take the tiger talisman, shook her head and said: "Since ancient times, the commander of the three armies has been rewarded by the emperor, and it is impossible for me to take away your position privately." "What's more, if Emperor Xuanwu learns that she takes over the position of commander of the three armies, he will definitely not be angry, but happy, because in the future, she will do her best for Xuanwu.
How could Twelve agree to such a thing?
It's easy to accept now, but if he wants to break free one day, I'm afraid it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
"Even if I don't take over the position of coach, Bai Zimo openly uses my name to start a war between the two countries, and I will not let him go. Twelve eyebrows were cold, five fingers clenched the armrest of the wooden chair, and there was a clattering sound under her palm, she actually crushed the armrest into pieces, and she was murderous, Li Yan even doubted that if Bai Zimo, the prince of the White Tiger, appeared here at this time, would she kill the other party on the spot?
The promise is yes.
Twelve's disgust with Bai Zimo has risen to anger! If you dare to use her, you have to withstand her anger!
"In that case, then I will order in the army that you be given the same authority as the commander. Li Yan thought about it for a while and came up with a compromise method, so that the 12th could be the commander of the three armed forces with no real name! In this way, not only the subordinates but also the superiors also had an explanation.
Twelve nodded slightly: "That's fine." β
Seeing her respond, Li Yan was overjoyed, carefully put the tiger talisman away, sat back in place, and was about to speak, but unexpectedly, the curtain of the main tent suddenly fluttered up and down, and a fiery red afterimage suddenly flew in from outside.
