Dayan, outside Kyoto City, captive camp.

There are hundreds of thousands of captives here.

These people were all elites selected from the Roman Empire when Huang Zhong led his troops to destroy Rome before.

Of course, these people were elite in the Roman Empire, but in the eyes of the Great Yan Empire, they were just a bunch of scum.

These people, the average strength is only a grade of Xuanjie, compared to ordinary people, they must be very strong, but if they are compared with the current Dayan army, they are a little too bad.

And these people, the reason why they are still alive is also simple.

Dayan needs to build a tunnel and dig a big hole in the mountain.

It's a huge project, and it's dangerous.

Naturally, the Ministry of Industry could not let the people of Dayan take this risk, so they specially left such a group of prisoners to serve as laborers.

Inside the camp.

More than a dozen legion commanders came and began to pick people.

Lü Bu ordered the head of the prisoner camp to gather more than 100,000 people here.

He's going to start choosing.

Although he could only choose a thousand people, Lu Bu still wanted to choose carefully, after all, the reward given by the emperor really made him tempted.

Not only Lu Bu, but also the rest of the legion commanders.

Although many people feel that they don't have a chance, the important thing is to participate.

Besides, although it is a battle of life and death, it is also these captive soldiers who fight to the death, these former enemies, these prisoners, they don't care at all.

Soon, a dozen corps commanders, as well as Han Shin, had already selected a thousand fighters.

The strength of these people is all in the Xuan Rank, and they can be regarded as evenly matched.

Lu Bu stood on the high platform and smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the thousand soldiers he had selected.

He cleared his throat.

Lu Bu was a smart man, and he clearly knew that if he wanted these captives to give him his life, he had to give them enough benefits, or draw them a big pie.

And under the high platform, a thousand captive soldiers all looked at Lu Bu on the high platform with curiosity on their faces, their eyes full of curiosity.

"The one above is Lu Bu, the Great Yan God of War, right?"

"What is such a big man doing in our prisoner camp? also selected our thousand brothers, could it be that we were selected by Lu Bu, so we don't have to work? ”

"It's hard to say, let's wait and see, in the eyes of this group of big people, we are a group of stinky fish and rotten shrimp, let's not think about those good things, maybe it's a disaster for us."

“……”

There was a lot of talking.

At this time, Lu Bu on the high platform finally spoke slowly.

"Give General Ben a moment of silence, be quiet."

"Tomorrow, General Ben needs to use you to participate in a battle, which is a fight for your life, and it is very tragic, and it is very dangerous for you to survive a tenth of the people present."

"Of course, this is also an opportunity for you, as long as you survive, you can get a thousand taels of silver, and obtain the identity of the people of Dayan, and restore your free body, do you understand?"

What?

Listening to Lu Bu's words, everyone looked at each other, and even breathed a lot more solemnly, because they knew in their hearts that if they kept working here, they would have to work for a lifetime, and life would be better than death, and they would be slaves for a lifetime.

And if you go out, although it is very dangerous, it also represents an opportunity.

Although the odds of them surviving are slim, they are willing to gamble with their lives.

After all, their current status is captive, slaves.

What they can take out now is their worthless life.

If you lose the bet, the big deal is death.

But if you win the bet, it's different.

They can become the people of Dayan and become a part of Dayan.

Everyone looked at Lu Bu and clenched their fists, it was obvious that they were really moved.

Similarly, the rest of the Legion Commanders said similar things.

And these Roman warriors all agreed, and not one of them refused.

Because they all know in their hearts that they want to change their fate now, and there is only this one chance.

In the same way, those Roman captives who were not chosen were full of envy and loss at the moment.

Obviously, they don't necessarily survive by doing heavy work here every day.

After all, Tang Tingbai is a tyrant, and that tyrant can do everything.

Maybe when they're done, the tyrant Tang Tingbai might kill them.

It can be said that every day of their life in Dayan, they are all scared, for fear that they will be killed if they do a small thing wrong.

After all, their current status is captive, and they are not even as good as grass mustard.

That night, more than a dozen corps commanders trained overnight.

Including Han Xin also trained overnight, after all, their time was running out.

Early tomorrow morning, there will be a battle.

All the Roman captives had a good meal and took up arms.

Of course, the weapons issued to these people are all ordinary steel knives, and they are not equipped with armor.

The purpose of this is to prevent these people from rebelling.

After all, in the face of death, no one knows what these captives are going to do.

Soon, there was no word for the night.

Early the next morning.

The First Army was stationed.

At this moment, the garrison of the First Army was already full of fighters.

Not only the soldiers of the First Army, but also from other armies, they also heard about today's events, so they came over to take a look, and cheered for their own regiment commander by the way.

And Tang Tingbai was already sitting on the high platform, looking at the dozen or so troops below.

These people seem to have changed overnight, and even their eyes have changed.

Obviously, these people knew in their hearts that if they were not good at fighting, they would definitely die, and there was not even the slightest chance of survival.

Although the enemy they faced was the same as they had been, they had no choice.

Looking at the Roman warriors below, Tang Tingbai smiled with satisfaction.

"Now that everyone is ready, I'm ready to draw lots."

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Zi immediately came over with a wooden stick.

Tang Tingbai casually pulled out two.

Lü Bu and Han Xin.

Obviously, this is the first time that Lu Bu has believed in Han Xin.

Tang Tingbai looked at Lu Bu and Han Xin behind him: "You two go down and prepare, after a stick of incense, go straight to war." ”

The two nodded in unison.

Soon, after a stick of incense.

A thousand people from Han Xin's side took the lead.

The thousand people were not a complete phalanx, but a small group of ten people.

And Lu Bu's side is much simpler, a thousand people are a phalanx, the spear is in front, the steel knife is behind, and the forward is constantly advancing, as long as it hits the spear, the enemy will definitely die.

With a bang began.

The warriors on both sides rushed forward with a roar of rage.

On Han Xin's side, the warriors did not rush to attack, but pulled out some small axes from their waists, which were only the size of an adult's arm, and threw them at Lu Bu's phalanx.

Whoosh –

Whoosh –

Whoosh –

Almost instantly, a thousand axes had flown into Lu Bu's camp.

Instantly, screams appeared.

It was like cutting wheat and pouring a large slice.

Lu Bu also reacted, and also pulled out the axe on his waist and threw it at Han Xin's side.

But with little success.

After all, the fighters on Han Xin's side were scattered, and every ten people were in a group, and it was difficult for these axes to hit.

However, dozens of unlucky eggs were hacked to death.

The two sides came into contact, and the big war began.

Ping Pong –

Ping Pong –

Ping Pong –

The Roman warriors roared in unison, almost to the point of blood.

On the high platform, Tang Tingbai looked at this scene and smiled with satisfaction.

From this aspect, it can also be seen that Han Xinbing is indeed okay in this regard, just by studying the use of the small axe, it has caused a lot of losses to Lu Bu's side.

And so it was, half an hour later.

The battle is over.

Lu Bu's side was defeated.

Yes, it's a complete defeat.

The two sides were in contact, and Lu Bu was still thinking about using a large corps to fight.

On Han Xin's side, there are groups of ten, some of whom resist the enemy's attacks, some who are specifically responsible for sneak attacks, and some who are responsible for mending knives.

In short, everyone is useful, no one is idle.

And Lu Bu's side is different.

When the pikemen in front were fighting, the knife soldiers standing in the back row had almost no chance to make their moves.

Han Xin and Lu Bu walked to the high platform, and Lu Bu looked at Han Xin with some helplessness and admiration in his eyes.

Obviously, Lu Bu was convinced of the loss.

Next, the rest of the legion commanders also went to battle.

And so, until night, all the battles were over.

Zhou Yu's performance was also good, using fire to attack and eliminate a thousand people at the cost of three hundred.

In the end, there were two people who performed well, one was Zhou Yu, the commander of the Third Army, and the other was this Han Xin.

Tang Tingbai raised his head and looked at the sky: "Everyone, it's not too early, the candidate of this group army has been chosen between Zhou Yu and Han Xin, I will go back tonight to think about it, you should also go back and think about it, and vote tomorrow, the position of the commander of the group army, the one with the highest vote will come to the Heart Cultivation Hall at noon tomorrow." ”

After listening to Tang Tingbai's words, everyone bowed down in unison.

Wait for Tang Tingbai to leave.

The smart Zhou Yu immediately talked to Lu Bu and Huang Zhong.

Zhao Yun stood beside Han Xin: "Old Han, don't stand here, you also go to canvass for votes, you look at Zhou Yu, how sleek he is in the world, if you look at you again, it won't be a problem." ”

Han Xin smiled helplessly, he is this kind of character, there is no way.

"Commander of the army, whether he can become the commander of this group army depends on his fate, besides, I have already shown my face in front of the emperor today, even if the commander of the army Zhou Yu becomes the commander and his subordinates are defeated, the emperor will definitely not treat his subordinates badly."

Oh?

Soon, Zhao Yun glanced at Han Xin appreciatively: "You kid, you have so many eyes, go for a walk and drink." ”
