This is the king's Wei Wushu!

Looking at the orderly military formations in front of him, for some reason, Zhao Hongming had a sense of pride and ambition in his heart.

This was even stronger than what he felt when he had broken through in his cultivation.

The current Wei Wushu's cultivation is relatively low, and the average is only at the level of the seventh grade of the open pulse.

None of that matters, though.

These Wei warriors in the camp are all martial artists.

These people may have high or low qualifications in cultivating martial arts, but as long as they are given the Wish Stone, the elixir, and the introduction of a mechanism that forces people to make progress, their cultivation will definitely rise over time.

At that time, Wu Qi and Zhang Yi were instructed by him to consider this aspect and formulate a military merit system.

When these Wei warriors appear on the battlefield, those warriors with high cultivation will most likely have an advantage over those with low cultivation and will be able to get higher rewards.

If you want to keep up with the rhythm of these people, you have to pay more attention to cultivation, otherwise you will be eliminated and risk your life.

And then form a virtuous circle, constantly forcing the entire Wei Wushu to move forward.

It is even possible to make some martial arts cultivation geniuses stand out from it and produce martial artists from the Innate Realm and even the Martial Courage Realm, making this organization more cohesive.

To put it bluntly, this Wei Wushu is actually a more organized and professional martial arts force.

Zhao Hongming looked forward to it in his heart, if one day, he would have hundreds of thousands of innate realm Wei Wushu in his hands.

What other martial arts force or country in the world can stop him?

If it is combined with some formation banner arrays, even the martial artists of the Creation Realm will have to avoid their edge.

This is much more reliable than the Wei royal family, which took generations to build the god and demon blade.

However, Zhao Hongming also knew that it was not difficult for the Wei royal family to build such an army, but the difficult thing was how to control such an army.

The conscription system practiced by the six countries under the world is a compromise under the weakness of the imperial power.

An emperor who can only have influence in the imperial city is naturally impossible to control hundreds of thousands of troops, rely on others, and only make wedding dresses for others.

But Zhao Hongming is different.

He has the [Heavenly Dao Reward for Diligence] martial arts panel, and he cultivates very hard, any exercise can be broken through in his hands, and he can even create a new exercise based on the existing ideas.

In such a situation, he himself has extremely strong force, which is enough to control and deter these subordinates, so that they do not dare to be presumptuous.

It is also based on this reason that he can form such a special army.

Otherwise, it is not guaranteed that Wu Qi and the others will have some ideas, so that this army will only know General Wu in the end, but not King Wu.

In general, Zhao Hong is quite satisfied with the results in front of him.

A smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said: "Since this king came to the camp today, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, how about General Wu pull out the 30,000 troops in the camp and let this king review it?" ”

There was a hint of panic on the faces of the other officers in the barracks, obviously being caught off guard by Zhao Hongming.

Only Wu Qi's face was calm.

He raised his hand and clenched his fist and said, "The last general has this intention." ”

"Come on, beat the drums, summon the three armies. Light the drum three times, and the latecomer will be killed! ”

The lieutenant beside Wu Qi said with a solemn expression: "The last general is ordered!" ”

The rest of the generals didn't dare to be sloppy and ran all the way.

A moment later, heavy drums rang out throughout the camp, and the drums thundered and made the blood boil.

Many Wei soldiers in the barracks were already very familiar with this kind of drum sound.

By the time the first drum sounded, a lot of people were already moving.

"This is a little drum, General Wu has something to summon."

"Hurry up, light the drums three times, and those who are late will be beheaded for public display!"

Many of the soldiers who were resting on their armor all moved, not daring to hesitate at all.

They knew that Wu Qi was very strict in governing the monarch, violated the rules, and said that he would be beheaded, and there was no room for negotiation.

Fortunately, the soldier drum is not so inhumane, and it takes a quarter of an hour to light the soldier drum three times, which is enough for the soldiers to rush to the school field.

The drums gradually stopped.

Wei Wushu, who was relatively close to the school grounds, had already hurried over.

Heavy footsteps attracted everyone's attention.

One by one, they put on three layers of heavy armor, each carrying a crossbow on their backs, holding a long ge, a sword with a belt, and trotting briskly with a uniform pace.

After these soldiers entered the ranks, the second beating of the soldier drums sounded.

Knock, knock, knock......

The sound of drums spread throughout the Wei Wushu camp.

One after another, several more soldiers from the phalanx were arranged.

After a while, the third beat of the drums sounded.

By this time, the originally empty school grounds were already full of soldiers.

As far as the eye can see, there are black pressed human heads.

In the distance, there are flag soldiers waving flags.

A lieutenant rode a horse to attack, dismounted and replied: "Return to the general, the 30,000 soldiers have all arrived." ”

Wu Qi stepped forward and glanced at everyone, then turned around and said solemnly: "The army has arrived, please review it with Your Highness!" ”

Someone pulled out a quaint chariot.

Zhao Hongming nodded and walked up, followed by Wu Qi.

Mafu pulled the chariot and walked towards Wei Wushu's phalanx.

The sky was cloudless and hung upside down.

The army suddenly shouted.

"Warrior Chitose!"

"Warrior Chitose!"

"Warrior Chitose!"

The momentum of the army is like a rainbow, as if the white clouds in the sky are also falling apart in the chorus of the mountains, shocking.

Even Zhao Hongming, a martial artist in the martial arts realm, was moved.

"According to the characteristics of the exercises that these martial artists have learned, the last general will organize them into different teams."

Wu Qi said respectfully on the side: "Your Highness, please see, the 30,000 Wei Wu soldiers are all hoplites, and the last general divided them into three parts during training. ”

"This first part is the crossbowmen, all equipped with crossbows, the number of about 10,000 people, each divided into three groups, the first two groups of shooting are over, just the third assembly is completed, and so on, you can take turns shooting."

Zhao Hongming looked at Wu Qi's point, and saw that in addition to the equipment of heavy armor, crossbow arrows, Changge, and sharp swords, each of them also brought an extra bow and crossbow.

Wu Qi continued to point to the other two phalanxes and said: "This part is the Changge hand, the number is about 10,000, the other side is the sword and shield hand, about 7,000 people, and the remaining 3,000 people are logistics soldiers, responsible for the logistics of grain and grass, and the final battlefield cleaning, if necessary, it is used to lure the enemy." ”

Zhao Hongming's gaze swept over these warriors one by one, and his keen mind sensed that the qi and blood on these warriors were very vigorous, which was different from ordinary martial artists, which showed that they did not have any slack in their usual training.

Some of them wore the pennant he had given them.

Zhao Hongming couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "General Wu is really good at training, and it is really a blessing for this king to have a general to assist him." ”

"His Royal Highness praises falsely, Wu Qi is also doing some modest efforts, without His Highness's support, Wu Qi will definitely not be able to do this."

Wu Qi was very sober and did not become complacent because of Zhao Hongming's words.

He knew that His Royal Highness the Martial King in front of him was an ordinary prince who was harmless on the surface, but behind the scenes, he was a martial artist of the Martial Courage Realm who was decisive in killing.

If he takes advantage of this to get carried away and arouse the suspicion or dissatisfaction of the martial king, I am afraid that there will be a storm of right and wrong in the future.

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and you must be careful at all times.

When he was defending the country, he didn't eat less of these losses, and it was time to remember it for a long time.

Zhao Hongming smiled and didn't say anything more, and continued to patrol.

……

The east city of the Zhao River is a small border pass, located on the border of Wei and Zhao, and the city of Hexi is across the river.

This small city is not very popular on weekdays, and it is only defended by some county soldiers, but since Li Mu plans to use troops against Ying County, this place has also become a border city.

Many of the recruited warriors have arrived here.

At present, the city of Hedong is full of people, shoulder to shoulder.

Among the many pedestrians, Quan Erbao is also among them.

After he escaped from the camp of Wei Wushu, he sneaked all the way to Hedong City.

Because he was in a hurry when he left, he only brought some money, wealth and silver, and he planned to rest in Hedong City, and then choose the opportunity to go to Handan to join his friends.

Quan Erbao walked to a roadside tea shed and found a place to sit down.

"Boss, serve a pot of tea."

"Okay, wait a minute, the tea will be here soon."

The tea in the tea shed is already boiled, and it can be brewed.

Soon, the boss brought a pot of tea and put it in front of Quan Erbao.

"Slow use by the guest officer."

Quan Erbao skillfully took out some broken silver and slapped it on the table.

The owner of the tea shed smiled and picked up the broken silver on the table to greet the other guests.

Quan Erbao poured himself a cup of tea and drank it leisurely, listening to the others in the tea shed talk about the recent dispatch of troops by Li Mu of Zhao State.

"The army has already encamped twenty miles outside the city east of the river. It is said that the siege is imminent. ”

"How many troops did General Li Mu bring over this time?"

"I heard that 180,000 troops have been recruited!"

"What?"

Hearing this, many people gasped.

The entire eastern army of Wei was only 1780,000 people, and Li Mu did not hesitate to mobilize 180,000 troops in order to capture a county, which was equivalent to fighting a small country war.

"Now that Yingjun is assigned to King Wu, it is no longer fortified by the Eastern Army, and the internal guards are loose, and in the face of the 180,000 army of Zhao State, King Wu is afraid that he will be more auspicious."

"Isn't it? King Wu only has one county, and he can only recruit forty or fifty thousand people at most. Against Li Mu's 180,000 army, the number is very different, how can you fight? ”

"This martial king is too pitiful, I heard that he is not loved by the emperor of Wei in the court, and he does not have the support of his mother's forces, so he will fall into this border place."

"I finally got a firm foothold, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing, it's really pitiful."

Quan Erbao, who was eating tea next to him, couldn't help but feel glad for his decision.

Fortunately, he ran out, otherwise, he would have been in the stroke of Wei Wu, and he estimated that he would be more than lucky in the next tough battle.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way."

A group of armor-piercing warriors appeared on the street, hurrying towards the west.

A group of cavalry, led by a chariot, crossed the streets.

There was a warrior on the chariot carrying a large flag, on which was embroidered with the huge character "Li".

"It's General Li Mu's charioteers!"

"I didn't expect General Li Mu to even send a chariot, Yingjun is determined to win."

The chariot has an unparalleled status among the six nations and is the main force on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, the chariot can not only be able to withstand the front, but also overcome difficulties to clear the way for the infantry behind.

Compared to the sword halberd, the chariot is a higher-level weapon, and it can even be said that it is a combat system.

Seeing this scene, Quan Erbao's heart was beating even more.

Before Takefu broke through the innate nature, he just had more strength than ordinary people and had better body materials.

Even though Wei Wushu was composed of martial artists, they were all heavy infantry, and in the face of such a hideous chariot, he couldn't think of how to resist.

I'm afraid that a few charges will rush to the ground.

They're dead.

Quan Erbao couldn't help but feel sad for the many brothers who had trained together.

Obviously, there is a body of cultivation, not to mention entering the second- and third-rate martial arts forces, it is still no problem to find a job as a caretaker in Zhao State, so why bother to take your life for the Martial King inside.

Quan Erbao raised his head and drank a sip of bitter and inferior tea, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings.

Outside Hedong City, about tens of thousands of Zhao troops appeared on the Wei-Zhao border.

In front of them a large river flowed through it, and the water was gentle, like a gentleman's gentleness.

"Cross the river!" Beside the river, a lieutenant drew his sword and shouted, "All the army crosses the river!" ”

At his command, countless soldiers recruited by the Zhao State jumped into the river and moved forward.

The river is not deep, the shallows are only knee-high, and the deepest part is only thigh-high, so it is not too difficult to walk.

The river is located in the middle of nowhere, and there are no people around.

The soldiers stationed in Ying County did not notice that a large army was forcibly crossing the river here.

"General, don't we have to wait for the news of Wu Wang's death to come out, and then we will send troops? Why so suddenly? ”

On a low slope not far from this army, Li Mu, the general of Zhao State, sat on horseback and watched tens of thousands of troops cross the river.

Li Mu opened his mouth and said: "The news has come from the martial artists in Luling City that our plan has been seen through by the Martial King, and the spies planted by him have also been cut down in the city, and the situation has changed. ”

"The time is also ripe in Hexi City, and it can't be delayed any longer. Moreover, in the original plan, it would be best if the Martial King could die, so that they would be left without a master and chaotic for a while. If we don't die, a child of the royal family doesn't have much background in martial arts, and the impact on us is not too great, so we don't need to care too much. ”

The general beside him suddenly realized: "I see. ”

Li Mu continued: "When we take Hexi City today, you immediately let the army behind you follow, and the soldiers are very fast. ”

"Yes, General. If it is not completed, the last general will be willing to come to see him. ”

Li Mu nodded and didn't say anything more.

"Drive!"

He swung the long whip in his hand and chased after the army down the slope.

The army under Li Mu's hands easily crossed the river and entered the territory of Wei Guoying County.

"Accelerate, accelerate, run for me, the first to arrive at Yingjun will be rewarded with a wishing stone!"

Motivated, the recruited soldiers began to gallop forward.

They were only more than twenty miles away from Hexi City, and it only took a moment of effort to run at full speed.

Even after walking a little way, they could see the dwarf walls and outlines of Hexi City.

There was only a hill outside Hexi City, and when they approached Hexi City, there were still more than ten miles away, and the county soldiers in the west of the city had already discovered their traces.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack! Close the gates! ”

The county soldiers in Hexi City were in a panic and sounded the alarm.

Li Mu immediately made a decision and shouted: "Hurry up and start attacking the city!" ”
