Chapter 189: The Great War is Imminent
Qin Liang naturally wouldn't sit idly by and watch this kind of thing happen.
For him, although the Pingchu Army is a scumbag, it is his team, and over time, it can still be built into a strong team.
Therefore, he must control the strength well, so that a small number of mountain-shaking troops can cross the city wall, giving the Chu people the illusion that as long as they add more force, this war can be won.
On top of the city walls, there were also 4,000 people guarding them.
Eighty percent of these guards are soldiers brought out by Zhao Yong from the red jade blessed land, and the rest are brave people selected from the death row prisoners of the Pingchu Army, which can be regarded as the essence of the Pingchu Army.
These 4,000 guards put on the armor of the Holy City.
These armors were basically used by the warriors of the gods and demons in ancient times, but Qin Liang spent a lot of effort to adjust their size and drape them on these Pingchu troops.
Most of the carefully selected soldiers of the Pingchu Army have the strength equivalent to second-grade martial cultivation. This bit of power is not enough to activate these armor and weapons that are equivalent to mid-to-high-grade spiritual weapons. But at least he won't be crushed by these armor weapons, and he can still swing and kill the enemy.
In this way, even if they are attacked by the Mountain-Shaking Army, they can save their lives with the equipment on their bodies.
"This level of armament ...... In the entire Nanzhan Continent, only the core legions of the major dynasties have it, right?"
Fei Du saw the equipment on the soldiers' bodies and sighed with emotion.
At this time, he discovered that Qin Liang was not only an unfathomable array master, but also an awe-inspiring refiner!
"It's time for me to be a big Zhou Immortal Dynasty!"
Fei Du touched his white beard in admiration.
He knew very well that the dynasty had such a number one person as Qin Liang, how much combat power could be improved for the Immortal Dynasty.
Coupled with Qin Liang's unfathomable cultivation, he is destined to live for a long time, in the foreseeable future, as long as Qin Liang's strength continues to improve, the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty can get more feedback from Ping Chubo, and this kind of improvement can even raise the overall strength of the entire Immortal Dynasty to a higher level.
"Fortunately, the old man's cultivation is not too low, and he is expected to see the appearance of that day. ”
Fido looked satisfied.
......
"Uncle, the vanguard of the Shaking Mountain Army has an army of 10,000 troops, which appeared ten miles north of Gucheng, led by Captain Yu Xinsuo! In addition, Du Cheng and Gong Niu, each leading 5,000 soldiers and horses, on the east and west sides, due south, is their main force Cen Feng, who also led 10,000 Shaking Mountain Army, ten miles away, four enemy troops, and at the same time advanced towards Gucheng......
Zhao Jia conveyed the latest news brought back by the scout in front to Qin Liang's ears.
"Got it, take back all the scouts, don't let them get hurt!"
Qin Liang hurriedly ordered Zhao Jia.
At this time, it was no longer necessary to investigate the enemy's military situation.
The monks of the Shaking Mountain Army had already begun to go out to intercept and kill the spies of Gucheng, and in just one hour, three or four scouts who had not had time to withdraw were accidentally discovered and finally killed.
"We're just going to stay here and see how much of a storm they can make. ”
The wind flag of the ancient gate was planted in one of the eyes of the earth's evil array, and the wind howled, blowing away the thick fog. And taking advantage of this meeting, the monks of the army smashed the eyes of the array that Gu Fei had lit one by one.
Although the array eye could be transferred and replaced in time, Qin Liang was not prepared to do such a thing.
When all the formation masters like Gu Fei appeared, he knew very well that this arrangement had no effect, and there was no need to waste effort.
Since this is the case, Qin Liang is also waiting for the general attack of the Shaking Mountain Army.
Qin Liang did not make a speech on war mobilization, but the fighting spirit of the Pingchu army was high.
In just a few days, these soldiers who were born on death row have taken on a new look.
Despite the high levels of tension and hard labor they spend every day, they are also the most satisfying time of their lives. Especially these days, after the various rewards and punishments of the Pingchu Army were carefully regulated, everyone cherished everything they had.
According to the rules set by Qin Liang, the Pingchu army has a lot of money every month, although it is not much, but it is countless times stronger than when he was a miner in the past. More importantly, the rewards for military merit are extremely rich, and if you kill and injure the enemy, you can get a silver reward, and military merit can also be accumulated, as long as the military merit accumulates to a certain extent, you can change from a non-commissioned officer to an officer.
In addition, the deeper reason for the Pingchu army to work hard is that now Qin Liang has taken over the family members of the Pingchu army, and Qin Liang is now not only supporting the tens of thousands of mouths of the Pingchu army, but also raising them together with their families.
Of course, Qin Liang would take a part of the income of the Pingchu army as the expenses for the soldiers to support their families. He knew very well that Shengmi was fighting against Mi Qiu, and he couldn't give Pingchujun too preferential treatment all at once, otherwise these guys might feel that they all deserved it in a blink of an eye, and it would be difficult to deal with it in the future, so he could only let Zhao Yong be buried alive.
Stimulated by many rewards, the Pingchu army was excited, and they were eager to pick up arms and fight to the death with the Shaking Mountain Army in order to strive for military merit.
It's just that the soldiers are hot-headed, but Qin Liang is very sober, and will never let the Pingchu army go out of the city to fight, even the head of the city is also protected by heavy armor, and those ordinary soldiers can only form a hunting team, which is specially used to hunt and kill the mountain-shaking army that is deliberately put into the city and left alone.
"Uh......h Peng, Peng, Peng!"
At this time, the Shaking Mountain Army had come to Gucheng less than three miles away.
In the armies on both sides, the monks with good eyesight can see each other's faces clearly.
Cen Feng rode on a pure black war horse, wearing a cyan battle armor and a sauce-red cloak on top of the battle armor.
The cloak was blown by the wind banner of the ancient gate, and the thunder was ringing.
"Master Gu, you can receive your supernatural powers. ”
Cen Feng touched the short beard on the face of the national character who was not angry and arrogant, and arched his hand to Gu Fei beside him.
Gu Fei nodded, and the wind flag flew up from the eyes of the Earth Demon Array, turned into a small flag, and returned to the wooden box behind Gu Fei.
Cen Feng turned his head to look to the side, bowed to a bronze mirror held by an attendant, and said in a deep voice: "Great marshal, the last general has arrived at the city of Gucheng, after investigation, there are more than 45,000 defenders in Gucheng, born in the blessed land of red jade, five days ago, he was still a prisoner on death row, and he has no combat power. In the fortified city, there are only 5,000 defenders of the red jade blessed land, and they barely have the strength to fight, and our army has a good chance of winning. However, the enemy general Qin Liang cultivated quite highly, and found out that Fei Du, the chief commander of the Zhou State, was stationed in Gucheng......"
Cen Feng reported the news collected to the Lishan ghost in the mirror moon in every detail.
Inside the mirror moon, the ghost of Lishan nodded again and again.
Cen Feng is worthy of being one of the generals he values the most, and in a short period of time, he has figured out the details of the enemy's army, which is really rare.
What is even more satisfying to the Lishan ghost is that Cen Feng obviously has the right to command all the 30,000 mountain-shaking troops, and there is no need to report to him at this time, but Cen Feng is still so careful to reply, which shows Cen Feng's loyalty.
Hearing that Fei Du was assisting in the defense of Gucheng and arranging a two-layer formation for Gucheng to strengthen his defense, Lishan Ghost touched his beard with satisfaction.
Without him, he had long thought that there was something strange in this place, and sent a large formation division like Gu Feng to investigate the enemy's situation, and finally discovered the arrangement of Feidu, which would save a lot of temptation time for the Shaking Mountain Army.
