"Demon Star, how much have I improved this time?" Sauron asked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Demon Star said: "Because this time you are improving your strength and agility, so in terms of archer cultivation alone, you are already a mid-level six-star." As for swordsman cultivation, you are already an intermediary three-star swordsman. ”

Sauron was overjoyed, although this breakthrough was far inferior to the Dragon Flame Ruins, it was already much stronger than expected.

Moreover, he also has a demon star, which can carry out N dragon power critical attacks, and the most important thing is that he is also a mid-level six-star spiritual master, which is the most rebellious. So even in the face of a high-ranking samurai, he has the strength to fight.

This promotion comes entirely from Suo Hanyi, and perhaps this is the last contribution of his so-called Suo Yizi.

Sauron left the ashram and walked outside to the small conference room.

"Meet the Lord. "Suo Danchen, Suo Danyu knelt down on one knee neatly.

Before, they didn't have this kind of etiquette for Suo Hanyi, basically they just bent down and saluted without kneeling, because Suo Hanyi was only their boss, not their lord.

Sauron beckoned them to get up, then found a chair to sit down.

Night Terror Feather stepped forward and served a delicate breakfast.

Soren took fresh fruit and cheese in his hands and feasted on it, eating and drinking goat's milk and red wine.

He is very delicate and eats indiscriminately. Not only cheese, but also lamb chops, not only cow and goat milk, but also wine.

Suo Danchen got up, still bent down and said respectfully: "Lord Qiqi, Tianshui City has been taken all. Four thousand rebels were disarmed and escorted out of the city, where they are now confined to the camp of the city guard to the north. ”

Sauron swallowed the last bite of lamb chops and said, "Let's go, go and see." ”

......

Leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Sauron got into a carriage and headed out of the city.

At this time, the entire Tianshui main city fell into an eerie silence.

The vast majority of the people did not know that the sky had changed, but they faintly felt a terrible aura. Because, last night there was a large-scale army sortie, and there were sporadic battles.

Early this morning. The city guard issued a proclamation that no one should stay at home and not go out.

Even more unsettling is the city guard itself. Although they also did not get very clear information. But the wind was already faintly heard.

It's just that they are the most professional soldiers, and even if there is any uneasiness in their hearts, they still have to obey orders.

Suo Danchen hesitated for a moment, then came to Sauron's side and said, "Lord. The brothers of the city guards are a little uneasy, do you want to talk to them? ”

Sauron shook his head and said, "No. ”

"Yes. Although Suo Danchen didn't understand, he could only obey the order, but he felt more and more that Sauron was unfathomable, and he was worried that the lord's prejudice against the city guards was already very deep.

Was Sauron prejudiced against the City Guards?

On the contrary, he felt that this was a very good army, although it might not be as good as the mercenary brought by Yan Yan in terms of individual combat effectiveness, after all, it lacked actual combat experience. But in terms of loyalty, and obedience far surpass the mercenaries.

On that day, Suo Hanyi pretended to be stabbed. Under the internal and external attacks, the main city of Tianshui fell. However, the city guards did not defeat all the ground, but organized and desperately escorted Suo Hanyi out of Tianshui City, and then within half a month, those scattered soldiers took the initiative to return to the team and reunited around Suo Hanyi.

Suo Hanyi and Yan Nu have trained this army very well, and this army's loyalty to Suo has never changed. It's just that they chose to be loyal to Suo's Hanyi.

It was also for this reason that the county lord of Cunning asked them to stay in the main city of Tianshui, instead of being transferred to Tianwolf Pass to fight with the army of Sauron.

They are now restless. One is to temporarily lose direction, and the other is to worry about his fate.

This city guard army was all born in Tianshui City and is an absolute professional soldier. The family has a field and a house, and there is a certain amount of money every month. In the territory of Tianshui City, they belong to people who are relatively wealthy and have a relatively high status.

Once Sauron expels them, they will be left with nothing.

......

A few miles out of the city from the north gate, you will arrive at the barracks of the Tianshui City Guards.

In normal times, most of the city guards trained in the barracks, and only a few were stationed in the main city of Tianshui. But this time the war is approaching. Therefore, the entire city guard army was stationed in the main city, and the northern barracks were empty.

The entire barracks covers an area of tens of thousands of acres. There are dedicated horse farms, archery ranges, and more.

The castle complex alone is a thousand acres, like a small town.

On the schoolyard of the castle, Sauron saw the four thousand rebels who had been captured, each of them disarmed, even stripped of their clothes, and squatted on the huge schoolyard, shivering with cold.

Although Tianshui City is located in the south, it is not cold, but after all, it is already winter at this time.

On the high walls around the entire school grounds, thousands of crossbows were aimed at them. The entire castle was guarded by two thousand city guards in full armor. The slightest mutiny on the part of these captives could be shot and executed in the shortest possible time.

"What about the casualties of the city guards last night?" Sauron asked.

Suo Danchen said: "It's very small, these rebels used to be second-line militias in their respective territories, and they were forcibly armed by Nurdan and others. With such an army, the city guards are able to fight in a dozen. In the last night's battle, in less than an hour, these rebels suffered less than 200 casualties, and they all surrendered on their knees. ”

Sauron stood on the balcony of the castle, looking down at the four thousand rebel captives on the school grounds.

Soon he will lead the city guards south to the Heavenly Wolf Pass, and attack the Heavenly Wolf Pass with Yan Yan's army before and after. These 4,000 rebel prisoners remained in the rear, and there were more than enough successes and failures, and it would be a trouble in case of chaos.

So the easiest way is to kill it cleanly.

Sauron did have a faint urge to do so, but reason quickly pushed him down. After all, these are four thousand living people, and they are all their own people, they are not even bad people, nor do they have the intention of opposing So's, they are all for the purpose of taking money to eat.

Sauron looked at these rebel captives and said lightly: "I, my name is Sauron, Count of Tianshui, the lord of Tianshui City, that is, the lord you want to rebel against." ”

Suddenly, all the captives looked at Sauron with anxiety, their eyes full of fear, and they shivered even more with cold as they were tightly clothed.

Not only the rebel prisoners, but also the soldiers of the city guards looked at him. They are also very worried about their fate.

"All rebels should be put to death. Sauron was straight to the point.

The four thousand rebel captives trembled with fright and immediately fell to their knees begging for mercy.

"Nurdan and other high-ranking warrior lords, all of them are going to die. Rebel centurions and above, all to death. Ten men are long, and all of them are to be reduced to slaves. Sauron pronounced the verdict directly: "But as the lowest soldiers, you don't have to die if you don't know what you know." ”

The more than 4,000 rebel captives below suddenly felt that they had escaped death. Big sigh of relief.

"How much do you pay a month for Nurdan and the others?" asked Sauron suddenly.

The rebel captives looked at each other, not knowing what to answer for a moment.

"One silver coin per month. One of the captives cautiously said, "When there is a war, three silver coins." ”

One silver coin is equivalent to 300 yuan of the earth, this is really low, no wonder Nurdan and the others went crazy, and at most they gathered 30,000 rebels.

"The day after tomorrow at the latest, the rest of Nurdan's rebels will be wiped out. Sauron said in a very relaxed tone, and he didn't mention it at all.

Because, in the eyes of all soldiers. From beginning to end, this war was a war between Sauron and Suo Hanyi, Nurdan and others, and they didn't know who the lord of the county of Lunin was.

"After the war, most of you will be able to go home, and you will be able to farm, and you will be working. Sauron said: "If you want to continue to be a soldier, you must pass a strict screening, and your physique and martial arts are top-notch before you can continue to serve in the army and fill in the city guard." Because after the war, the city guard army will be expanded to 10,000!"

Sauron's words. Not just for the rebel prisoners, but more importantly for the city guards.

Sure enough, after hearing Sauron's words, all the city guards present were completely overjoyed. All the worries in my heart are gone.

The city guards will not only not be reduced, but will be expanded, which means that their jobs will be preserved, and their military status and grain fields will not be recovered.

"How much is the city guard's salary now?" Sauron asked, turning his head.

"Three silver coins per month. Suo Danchen said: "Regardless of wartime and peacetime, it is three silver coins. However, some of it is cashed in with grain. ”

Sauron said: "Plus, in the future, the minimum salary of the city guards will be increased to five silver coins per month." ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of Suo Danchen and the others suddenly lit up, and all the city guard soldiers present were ecstatic, with disbelief on their faces.

From three silver coins to five silver coins, it has almost doubled. And they are in the barracks, they don't need to spend money at all, they can save more than one gold coin a year, so that the whole family can live a good life.

For a moment, the uneasiness in the hearts of all the soldiers of the city guard disappeared cleanly, and was replaced by ecstasy and excitement.

As for the change from allegiance to Sauron, it was much easier for ordinary soldiers.

Because Suo Hanyi did not have much direct contact with the soldiers, but had more contact with the officers, the feelings and loyalty of the officers above the centurion were especially deep.

These soldiers are loyal to Sox, and what they value most is their own jobs and futures.

Suo Danchen next to him admired in his heart, Sauron didn't say a word to the city guards, but every word was said to them, a few simple words made the city guards uneasy, and it didn't seem to have the slightest feeling of buying people's hearts.

And the four thousand rebel captives below are also extremely excited, they can not only survive, but also may become a high-ranking city guard, who can get three silver coins a month, and suddenly throw the old lord Nurdan and other old lords out of the clouds.

Suo Danchen immediately gave him a look.

Suddenly, one of the captives suddenly shouted: "Long live Lord Sauron, long live Lord Sauron!"

Immediately afterward, all the captives shouted Long live Sauron.

Not only that, but more than 4,000 captives knelt down in unison to show their allegiance.

On the contrary, the soldiers of the city guard are proud in their hearts, and although they are excited, they will not show it so superficially.

Sauron turned his head and whispered to Sodanchen: "Add a coat to each captive, but still don't dress warmly, the porridge is thicker every day, but don't let them be full." ”

Sodanchen was heartbroken, for this was the first time that Sauron had turned his face slightly to speak to him, and his attitude had become a little closer.

At this time, he deeply felt the difference between Suo Hanyi and Sauron.

Although Suo Hanyi was harsh, he was close to the officers, and there was a vague sense of equality.

And Lord Sauron has always been high, so that you can't see clearly or figure it out, but the occasional closeness will also make you excited. Flattered.

Therefore, Suo Hanyi can only be a general, and Sauron is the real monarch.

The fact is also true, Suo Hanyi can only promote your military rank at most. Sauron, on the other hand, can give you a field and a manor, canonize you, and bring honor and status to your family.

"Yes, my lord. Suo Danchen said excitedly.

Sauron said: "Leave two thousand people to garrison the main city of Tianshui, and the remaining four thousand troops will follow me south." Destroy the rebels in the Sky Wolf Pass. ”

"Yes. Suo Danchen knelt down on one knee.

......

Late in the evening.

Outside the main city of Tianshui, four thousand city guards have all been assembled. Two thousand cavalry, two thousand infantry.

Sauron rode the liger, inspecting the army back and forth, and every soldier he watched felt a great deal of pressure.

And their war horses were also stared at by the lion and tiger beasts, trembling slightly.

"In the Heavenly Wolf Pass, there are 10,000 enemy troops. Sauron said: "Among them, there are four thousand black-clothed soldiers. Nurdan's rebels were 10,000, and Guiqinqu's Linhai was 5,000. ”

All the soldiers present had to gradually adapt to Sauron's style of speech, not sensational, not grandiose.

"And we, too, are nineteen thousand. Sauron said: "Four thousand city guards, and one hundred thousand silver wolf legions of Lord Yan Yan." ”

The name of the silver wolf Yan Yan has been heard by everyone present. Because Yan Yan also went out of the territory of Tianshui City, he was the king of mercenaries who was famous throughout the kingdom.

"Nineteen thousand against nineteen thousand. Sauron didn't hide the meanness on his face and said, "But in my eyes." The enemy's 19,000 are completely like a chicken and a dog. The more the army, the better, even if there are a million, it is not of the slightest use. ”

Hear the word silly/forced. The soldiers present were slightly stunned, this lord really has a distinct personality.

"Waste army, you saw last night, that all four thousand rebels were taken down by you in less than an hour. Sauron smiled: "The day before yesterday, I spent gold coins to hire more than 10,000 ruffians to be your Lord Suo Hanyi. With a loud roar, he peed his pants in fright and fled cleanly. ”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers of the city guards present could no longer hold back their laughter.

"There are at least thousands of pieces of waste like this in the Heavenly Wolf Pass. Sauron said disdainfully: "With only 19,000 troops, and we have to divide into three factions, this is the enemy we will face." ”

The city guards didn't have much fear in the first place, but at this time, when Sauron said this, they didn't have the slightest fear of the battle of Sky Wolf Pass.

"What about our nineteen thousand troops?" Sauron said, "This woman next to me, Yan Naier, is the daughter of Lord Yan Yan. Just two months ago, she led a thousand men to defeat the 50,000 Amano Castle coalition forces in the western desert. You heard it right, a thousand men defeated an army of fifty thousand. This is the Silver Wolf Legion, and there are fifteen thousand people under the Sky Wolf Pass. ”

"Except for the Silver Wolf Legion, it is your four thousand city guards in front of you. Sauron said, "I don't know about your combat effectiveness. But you know for yourselves, and if you want me to know, show me in the next battle, and don't disgrace my Suo's guards. ”

Sauron's tone was very flat, but he also said that the blood of the soldiers of the city guards present was boiling.

Fighting alongside them is a legendary army, an army with thousands of enemies. While this army gives them a sense of security, it also brings great pressure. You are so strong, we are not vegetarians, everyone compares.

"Finally!" Sauron said, holding up his finger, "an enemy's head can be exchanged for a gold coin, and it will never be in arrears." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the city guards present almost went crazy.

A head and a gold coin, this, this is completely sky-high, almost as much as their previous two years, and it is three or four times the price of 100,000 mountain hunting barbarian heads.

If you kill three or four enemy soldiers, you will make a fortune directly.

All the soldiers present felt that the blood on their bodies was really boiling, and they couldn't wait to fly to the Sky Wolf Pass to harvest their own head gold coins.

"Go, go kill the enemy, go earn your gold. Sauron roared,

"Kill, kill, kill......"

The morale of the four thousand city guards was high, and the murderous spirit was soaring, and they swept south, heading towards the Heavenly Wolf Pass.

"Long live the Lord!"

"Stepping on the Heavenly Wolf Pass!

......

In the Heavenly Wolf Pass, Ning Ning was a little uneasy, but he couldn't find a reason.

It is still normal for the flying harrier to pass the book from Tianshui City every day, and the latest news is good news.

For example, in the recent news, Sauron hired more than 10,000 ruffians with gold coins to attack Tianshui City, but was frightened by Suo Hanyi's shouting.

Then, Suo Hanyi led two thousand cavalry and pursued for hundreds of miles, and Sauron was already certain to die.

Tuning still despises it, Sauron is smart, but he doesn't understand military affairs at all, so he is so embarrassed.

I believe that now Sauron has either become a ghost under the sword of Suo Hanyi, or he has become a prisoner and suffered ****.

Yan Yan's army outside the Heavenly Wolf Pass is still building fortifications.

The two armies are still staring at each other for several miles, but they just don't fight.

Eight or nine days had passed since the start of the war, and the food and grass brought by Sauron's army should have almost run out.

In a few days at most, when the enemy has run out of food and grass, he will be in chaos without a fight.

Yan Yan will not wait for the day when he runs out of ammunition and food, and he will definitely be forced to attack the Heavenly Wolf Pass at that time.

At that time, the 19,000 army led by Ning Ning could easily annihilate Yan Yan's army by relying on the fortified city.

She was right, Yan Yan's mercenaries were good at field warfare, not at siege. Once it is really as Ning Ning expected, Yan Yan's army will definitely lose, and there will be countless casualties.

Therefore, she Ning is completely promoting her strengths and avoiding her weaknesses, and there is nothing wrong with it.

The only thing she was wrong about was that the battlefield was ever-changing, and once she lost the initiative on the battlefield, it meant defeat.

And now Cuning has long lost the initiative.

Before she attacked Yan Yan's army at the first time, she had already lost the initiative in the first step.

After Sauron killed Suo Hanyi, she lost the initiative on the entire battlefield.

......

As a result, time was lost day by day, and Ning Ning was still waiting for Yan Yan's army to run out of food and grass.

I don't know why, the uneasy feeling in her heart is getting heavier and heavier, but she can't find the reason at all.

After another two and a half days, a messenger rushed into the Heavenly Wolf Pass and hissed and roared: "Suo Hanyi died in battle, Sauron captured the main city of Tianshui, and is leading the army south, less than two hundred miles away from the Heavenly Wolf Pass. ”

As soon as the messenger finished speaking, his body fell directly from his horse, and he fell to the ground and died, with an arrow stuck in his back.

The news was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and Ning Ning only felt that it was dark in front of him, dizzy, and then his chest swelled and he felt a sharp pain.

"Poof......" A mouthful of blood spurted out.

The county lord of Ningning fainted directly and fell to the ground, unconscious.
