King Zheng and Wang Xiang built a city in the Ili River valley, and at the same time left a group of officials to govern the place. Wang Ze and Wang Yu also left their officials behind to follow and learn.

These officials are basically from the school palace, the big cadre school palace every three years to take an exam, the qualified person can be out of office, if you are not qualified, you can continue to take the exam, but then you need to pay your own expense, the school palace is in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, want to study at your own expense, the cost is very high. And if you don't pass three times, you won't be allowed to take the test again in the future.

If you want to be an official, you can sign up to go to the Western Regions and become an official in the Western Regions, of course, if you make great contributions in the Western Regions, you can also be recommended by the vassal king to go to the Central Plains to serve as Jiuqing.

Therefore, there are many civilian students who go to the Western Regions to become officials, and it is more difficult to be an official in the Western Regions than in the Central Plains, after all, there are too many Hu people here, and they are not so easy to control, but as long as they are trained in the Western Regions, they are basically capable when they return to the Central Plains.

If you want to be the prime minister in Daqian, you must first go to the county to serve. Without a resume of grassroots service, don't want to serve as a high-ranking official of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries.

With the assistance of civilian students, the management of the nine cities is quite smooth, even if there is a slight problem, with a large army on the side, there will be no chaos, and it will be corrected soon.

After the construction of the nine cities in the Ili River Valley, the road to Tingzhou became much easier, and then the army began to march towards Broken Leaf City.

Getting from the Ili River Valley to Broken Leaf City required crossing mountains and mountains, and the army was slow to move forward, and it was difficult for horses to cross the mountains, so this march was not a cavalry way.

Compared with the cavalry, the infantry of Daqian is stronger, and it is also because of the vastness of the Western Regions that the cavalry is valued, but the infantry is also not left behind.

Wang Xiang, Wang Ze, Wang Yu and others selected a thousand heavily armored warriors as the vanguard, and under the leadership of Chen Shuo Guo Xing, they crossed the Tianshan Mountains and headed to Broken Leaf City.

Although it was a thousand heavy armor, there were 5,000 people when they set out, and the remaining 4,000 people were all carrying armor, weapons, food and grass for these 1,000 people.

The army marched over the mountains and mountains, and some roads had to climb over the mountains at an altitude of three or four thousand meters.

Outside Shattered Leaf City, a group of slaves were repairing the city walls, and a wide moat outside the city led from the Broken Leaf River and circled the city.

It is not easy to build a city on the edge of such a plateau, and not so long ago there was a war.

The political environment here is complicated, there are more than 100,000 Hu people living nearby, and not long ago, the strongest gray wolf tribe just swallowed up the Wuzhi tribe. The strength can already overwhelm the other tribes.

Chen Shuo and Guo Xing led the army over the mountains and mountains, and finally came to Atami. It's just that by the time they got here, the 5,000-strong army at the time of departure had already been reduced by more than a hundred people.

Among them, there are those who are not adapted to the plateau climate, who are sick and die, and there are those who fall off the cliff on rugged mountain roads, and so on. However, after this march, these soldiers became more and more elite.

Atami is a huge saltwater lake, and a small earthen fort has been built around the lake, and the soldiers stationed here did not expect anyone to climb over the mountains to attack.

As for making them do their duty? It's only a few dollars a month, so it's so fatal? There were really such high-quality soldiers, and Wang Xiang didn't dare to send such a few people to attack.

After the army arrived, it launched a direct attack. How can a thousand heavy armor elites be stopped by these miscellaneous beards? These heavily armored elites carried a stump and slammed the gate open with a few strokes.

In just half an hour, this earthen fort will be conquered.

Next, the army slaughtered cattle and sheep here, feasted a big meal, traveled long distances over mountains and mountains, and after a brief rest, immediately rushed to Broken Leaf City.

Outside Broken Leaf City, the Hu people, who had already received the news, reorganized their armies and fought overnight, but the time was too short, and they only gathered a part of the army.

After the elite arrived, they simply rested and began to attack directly. These strong men all opened a strong bow and a strong crossbow, half of them directly bowed and suppressed the city, and half of them began to attack.

At first, these Hu people wanted to use cavalry to break up the heavy armor of the thousand people, but they directly collided with the iron plate.

The power of the crossbow arrows is far beyond the imagination of these Hu people, even the war horses can't bear it, a rain of arrows fell, and dozens of Hu cavalry who charged suddenly fell, and before they could react, there were several waves of arrow rain in a row. The light horsemen were beaten and suffered heavy casualties.

The rest of the cavalry was so frightened that they hurriedly reined in their horses, wanting to spare the bow and crossbow arrays. It's a pity that the elite of the Great Cadres gave them this opportunity?

"Sons, kill me!" Chen Shuo roared, grabbed a meteor hammer from his waist, and flew out violently.

With a thud, it smashed precisely on the head of an officer who looked like it, and the officer screamed, his helmet deflated, blood splattered, and the man fell directly from his horse.

Immediately afterwards, he directly strode forward, and the soldiers next to him also rushed forward. These heavily armored soldiers, each with a large waist and a round waist, and wearing two layers of armor, each of them is like a heavily armored tank. The horizontal knives had already played in their hands, and the cavalry was about to turn the dock, but they were cut down with a single sword, and they were directly beheaded.

Don't look at these Hu cavalry, they look like they are showing off their might, but they were rushed by this thousand heavy armor, and they were immediately killed and injured like chopping melons and vegetables.

"Guo Heizi, don't let them close the city gate!" Chen Shuo shouted, and then a meteor hammer was thrown out, hammering the head of a cavalryman to pieces.

Guo Xing immediately abandoned those Hu people and rushed towards the city gate with a few people.

"Shoot the arrows! Hurry up and release the arrows! When the Hu people in the cave of the city gate saw the heavily armored soldiers rushing over, their faces changed greatly, and they hurriedly shouted and released arrows.

Dozens of arrows flew out, and Guo Xing raised a large shield with one hand and rushed forward. The two-meter-tall strong man is a first-class hero even among the thousands of elite heavy armor, and the big shield in his hand is as light as thatch, blocking all those arrows.

Guo Xing, who charged up, was almost unstoppable, even the war horse could crash out, how could those soldiers defending the city be able to stop it.

More than a dozen soldiers were about to close the door, and Guo Xinglian slammed out with a shield. Knock the people who closed the door straight out.

A few miscellaneous beards picked up knives and wanted to stab Guo Xing, but Guo Xing's shield flicked and a big force threw over.

‘duang！ With a crisp sound, the miscellaneous Hulian flew out directly with a weapon, and a strange angle appeared on his neck, and he got a baby-like sleep.

The rest of the Zahu took the opportunity to shoot arrows and wanted to shoot them to death, but those arrows pierced the first layer of armor and stopped, and then they were swept away by Guo Xing's shield, and all of them were swept away.

Immediately afterwards, Guo Xing burst into a shout, shouldered it, and directly pushed open the gate that weighed hundreds of catties. One by one, the heavily armored soldiers behind him rushed up, pushing the other door open completely.

Countless arrows fell, and these people were directly shot into hedgehogs. Guo Xing and the others had nowhere to hide, so they protected their eyes, eyes and chest with one hand, and slashed with a knife in the other.

The vast majority of Hu people's bows and arrows are soft bows, and there are no crossbow arrows. Even if you shoot at close range, you can't help the elite wearing two layers of heavy armor.

Don't look at the same as a hedgehog now, but in fact, it is at most a broken skin.

Seeing these people so brave, the Hu generals defending the city knew very well that if they didn't close the gate as soon as possible, Broken Leaf City would not be able to defend it.

Guo Xing took a few heavily armored soldiers to resist the gate to the death, not letting those Hu people close the gate, dozens of people came to fight to close the gate, but they couldn't close the gate, seeing this scene, the guard directly ordered to besiege these people with swords.

It's a pity that the gate of Broken Leaf City is narrow, and at most twenty people rush up at a time, and most of these people are some leather armor, and the swords in their hands are slashed on the heavy armor, making a clanging sound, but they can't pierce the iron armor at all.

Guo Xing wears rattan armor with a layer of fish scale armor on the outside, and a layer of fish scale armor on the inside, which has a very high defense against swords, guns, swords, and halberds.

In the face of these miscellaneous beards, Guo Xing was like a bear, watching the bearded man in front of him, who was not as tall as his shoulder, take out an iron hammer from behind him, and smashed it at those heads without any moves.

With a bang, I saw that the Hu man's skull was deformed, and then the red and white were scattered on the ground, followed by another sweep, directly hitting the ear of another yellow-haired Hu man next to him, blood splashed everywhere, and the whole person flew out sideways.

The Hu people around him slashed their swords at Guo Heizi one after another, but they were directly bounced off by the iron armor, and some of them even cracked open their blades.

After years of continuous development and continuous progress in the iron-smelting process, the iron armor is more tenacious than before, and the weapons in the hands of these Hu people cannot break through the armor for a while.

For a while, there were only a few heavily armored soldiers, and dozens of Hu people were blocked to death.

The bravery of Guo Heizi and the others provided time for the other armor soldiers, and these heavy armor soldiers directly routed the Hu people's light cavalry, and then rushed directly to the city gate.

Chen Shuo led the heavy armor charge, some of the armor soldiers used hard bows and crossbows to shoot and kill, suppressing the city, and the other part of the warriors rushed directly towards the gate with spears in their hands.

The crossbowmen shot at the few warriors in iron armor among the Hu people, and the iron armor of the Hu people could not withstand the hard bow of Da Qian.

"Kill Hu!" Many pikemen roared angrily and rushed directly towards those Hu army formations.

These armor soldiers did not shy away from swords at all, and their spears were like gourds wearing rock sugar, and they wore the Hu people at the city gate into a string and forced them into the city.

Rushed out of the military formation, and the rest of the Hu people were killed in a chill, and these heavy-armored elite soldiers relied on the treasure armor on their bodies, and rushed into the enemy formation with the hammer and blade in their hands.

The gray wolf who had just subdued many Hu people was beaten and howled wolf howls and fled for their lives. These heavily armored soldiers were not in a hurry to chase and kill, but drove to kill little by little, always leaving these Hu people in a state of chaos.

However, with only a thousand people in heavy armor, they captured Broken Leaf City, which was garrisoned by tens of thousands of people, and the 4,000 people who were auxiliary troops behind them were dumbfounded.

"One dry is five hu, no, this is one dry and ten hu!"
