After the split of the Xuanqing rebels, the western Andes was surging. The eastern part of the country is much clearer, because everyone on the continent of Middle-earth knows that the Xuanqing rebels are about to strike the most fatal blow against Byzantium.
"The offensive on the western flank has been rapid, and the Byzantines have diverted a large number of infantry and fortifications from the city. "Three days ago, General Sun arrived at his destination and launched a fierce bombardment of 15 important towns on the eastern side of Byzantium, including Seyut, Basmutan, and East Romney, as well as major transportation points, and the front line was more than 2,000 kilometers long. β
Xuan Qingyi nodded and said, "In this case, the enemy army must put its strategic focus on the east and west sides, and they would never have thought that we would actually use land and air cavalry to break through from the south side and take their imperial capital Burkina." β
"Sir wise!"
"How many cavalry are there in this general attack?"
Zhang Chong flipped through the information and said, "Five thousand." β
"Not enough! What the hell is going on?"
"General Zhu is going to leave more than half of the ...... The rest were scattered to the towns and garrisoned. β
Xuan Qingyi shook his head and said, "Garrison? Can the garrison use cavalry? Oh, by the way, how is the training of the newly recruited cavalry?"
"This ...... It's only been a week of training, and I've just passed the riding event. β
"Can you fight? If not, how long do you have to train?"
Zhang Chong closed his eyes and shook his head and said, "At least a month's ......."
"It's too late! They must go to the battlefield immediately! Otherwise, how can five thousand cavalry be enough?" Xuan Qingyi said, slapping the table. "Now that the riding skills are qualified, the rest is their determination. Take me to a prisoner of war camp!"
"Sir...... You're ......"
"I can turn them into qualified fighters now!"
At noon, on the outskirts of Hadrian's City.
The sky was cloudless, and the bright sun cast a white warmth. Fresh green leaves, verdant weeds, red and yellow flower clusters and buzzing bees form a vibrant picture of nature.
From the attic to the northeast, through the woods, after crossing a large rushing river, you can see an open meadow. However, the empty grass is not empty at this moment, and it is densely packed with people.
They were neatly dressed, with serious expressions, and lined up in a phalanx. Stood there motionless. Noisy bees buzzed over everyone's heads. However, the group did not make any superfluous sounds, as if they were all wood carvings.
Zhang Chong walked past the queue with majestic steps behind his back with his hands behind his back, his serious gaze sweeping over each recruit. That's it! That's it! It's just that I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Mr. Xuanqing's gourd. What is the way to turn them from rookies to qualified fighters in a short period of time?
Zhang Chong was very satisfied with this group of recruits. I also believe in Xuan Qingyi very much. But I was still nervous. Because now is the critical moment that determines the outcome of the war in the eastern Andes, and if you win, you can unify the east, and if you lose, it is not just as simple as going back to your hometown...... It's a bad step. Every step is wrong, and the whole game is lost.
After a long time, Xuan Qingyi finally came. Dressed in white, with a good demeanor. Behind his dashing back was a large crowd of people. Unlike usual, the group of people who accompanied him was not a personal bodyguard to protect him, but a group of ragged, unkempt, yellow-skinned Byzantine prisoners with chains around their necks.
Zhang Chong was taken aback and asked, "Sir...... What are you?"
"What's wrong?"
"These prisoners of war are used for ......"
"I'll teach them how to become a qualified Xuanqing Rebel soldier. β
"Ahh
Xuan Qingyi took a cursory look at everyone present and said loudly, "Yes! full of energy and strong physique...... But it seems to me that you are nothing more than a bunch of terracotta figurines in which they are ruined. It's just a faΓ§ade!"
Which of the soldiers was not a hot-blooded man? How could they stand such an insult? However, due to military discipline, they still suppressed this anger and hid it in their chests. But anger still leaked slightly from his resolute face.
When Xuan Qingyi saw this, he thought: Yes, he has backbone, he is also disciplined, and his children can be taught! So he continued to roar: "You are the lowliest creatures on the Central Continent, worms! Do you think that standing motionless in a military posture is a soldier?" After speaking, he came to a tall recruit with a high spirit, glared at him and asked, "You! It's you, tell me, do you think you are a soldier?"
The tall recruit paused for a moment, raised his head and replied loudly, "Sir, I have gone through a month of recruit training and a week of riding training, and now I am a qualified entry knight, a soldier!" Zhang Chong, who was on the side, nodded with satisfaction.
Both Renon and Fiona heard that Xuan Qingyi had a way to train a group of recruits into qualified warriors in a day, so they secretly ran over to watch. He used his flying spell and led Fiona to a towering tree at the edge of the attic forest, looking across the rushing river.
"What the hell is Xuan Qingyi doing?" Fiona, who is an elf, has excellent vision, and she can see everything that is happening on the other side of the river from afar.
"I don't know, maybe he has his own ideas, his own unique secrets, right?" The expression on Ruinon's face was also cloudy, and he always had an indescribable sense of foreboding.
"You think you're a soldier?" Xuan Qingyi stepped forward and stared at the tall recruit's nose and asked, "Okay, little bastard, tell me, what is your duty when you go to the battlefield?"
"Defend your home and country!" shouted the recruit in a loud voice.
"How to defend the country and tell me the mongrel!" Xuan Qingyi also ripped his throat and yelled at him.
"Kill all the enemies. Not a single one!sir!"
Xuan Qingyi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good! You have evolved from a lowly worm to a thinking person!" Immediately his tone changed, and his tone and voice became extremely low and ruthless: "Then do you know how to kill the enemy?"
"Sir!" replied the recruit in a categorical manner.
"Very good!" Xuan Qingyi's eyes showed a fierce color, and he raised his hand and waved back lazily. Immediately, two scorching guards came to him with a captive.
The poor captive struggled as if he knew his tragic fate, and let out a few mournful wails in his mouth, and his bony body trembled violently.
Xuan Qingyi took out a bright steel knife from the space bag, handed it to the recruit, and said, "Show me." β
The recruit hesitated for a moment, took the steel knife, he looked down at the poor prisoner of war and then at Xuan Qingyi, and then said, "It is against the convention to torture and kill prisoners of war who have surrendered, sir!"
"Didn't you hear my orders, recruit?" asked Xuan Qingyi with a cold face.
"Yes, sir, but he is not an enemy. After speaking, he handed the steel knife back to Xuan Qingyi.
Xuan Qingyi glanced at the steel knife, but did not reach out to accept it. "The last time. I command you to kill your enemies!"
"There are no enemies here!sir!"
"Huh, no?" Xuan Qingyi sneered and snatched the steel knife with his hand. I could only hear a "whew". The knife fell in his hand, and in an instant, blood flashed.
The tall recruit stared at Xuan Qingyi blankly, and then slowly collapsed to the ground. The verdant meadow turned a beautiful but terrifying bright red in an instant.
This astonishing act was like a hot oil pan of cold water, which exploded in the queue of recruits.
"It's a lie, isn't it? This must be a lie......"
"Unforgivable! Even if he is our leader, he is unforgivable!"
"I don't believe it's true...... I don't believe it!"
"Ha Luha! You're all mentally retarded. Mr. Xuanqing, this is testing us!"
"I ......" everyone discussed. Everyone has a different look on their face: anger, horror, confusion......
Zhang Chong couldn't stand it anymore. But he cautiously stepped forward and asked, "Sir." Isn't that real? You're ...... You're testing them, aren't you?"
"A test? Yes, it's a test. Saying that, Xuan Qingyi grabbed the poor prisoner of war and said, "But how can it be considered a test if you don't move?"
"Ahh
"Brethren. See, this is war!" Xuan Qingyi said, holding a knife in one hand and grabbing a prisoner of war in the other, "There are only two kinds of people on the battlefield, one is a dead man! Just like him!" he said, pointing to the tall recruits who were not blind to death.
"Look, I say, sir, you're testing us!"
"The other is the one who is waiting for death!" said Xuan Qingyi, shaking the poor prisoner of war like a sieve, "This world is the jungle...... This is especially true on the battlefield! Once you are merciful to the enemy, you become a dead man! If you don't kill the enemy, the enemy will kill you!"
The red and white brains burst out, and with his crazy remarks, the soldiers went crazy! They roared with their fists and let out thunderous roars.
"We want to drink their blood and eat their flesh!" Xuan Qingyi forcefully lifted the corpse of half a head of prisoners of war into the air. All of a sudden, the soldiers went even crazier.
The two guards standing behind Xuan Qingyi looked at each other, smiled, and then dragged away the body of the tall recruit in a uniform manner, and then put four barrels of liquor at Xuan Qingyi's feet. Xuan Qingyi put down the corpse and picked up the half of the skull from the ground, emptied the brain, and then filled the skull of liquor from the wine barrel. In the horrified eyes of everyone, he "raised his glass" and drank it all.
Of course, Xuan Qingyi's "performance art performance" was not over, he picked up the corpse from the ground again, opened his mouth to bite off a large piece of meat, and then swallowed it in a creepy chewing sound.
There was silence on the blood-smelling prairie. Everyone opened their mouths wide and stared at Xuan Qingyi dumbfounded, and a few people with slightly worse mental quality suddenly vomited stomach acid. At this moment, even the captives who knew that their death was imminent were quiet. It's not that they have been disheartened and accept their fate, but they are frightened stupid by Xuan Qingyi's amazing behavior. (To be continued......)
