It's hard to say whether the Bran military has the possibility of revenge against the Gray Coats and made a preparation plan. But at the moment, this army from the Cangyan Legion was definitely not ready, and in just a quarter of an hour after the battle began,

Bang, bang, bang...... Several large red signal flares burst out one after another, instantly dyeing a large area of the twilight night sky red, which was extremely dazzling.

The fierce battlefield paused, and for a moment, the two sides in the entanglement subconsciously took a step back and separated slightly.

Most of the people on one side are yellow and thin, and they have a mix and match of all kinds of old armor on their bodies, which seems to be really down. Only his eyes were bright and blood-red, like a murderous beast, and the violent meaning in his eyes was not reduced by half because of this short pause. On the other hand, he was dressed in imperial armor, his expression was terrified, and he looked at the group of refugees in front of him in a trance, as if he had seen an enemy that was familiar to him in the past, the crazy barbarian from the Northern Wilderness...... looked at each other, and immediately, a more fierce fight broke out again, and the two sides were entangled again, either roaring violently or screaming to death......

When the battle situation hits this, there is actually no suspense. Those few signal flares from inside the fortifications were not to seek reinforcements, it must have been too late, this was just to warn the rear blockade, so as not to repeat this tragic scene.

As for the current blockade line, if this Cangyan army doesn't want to be wiped out here, then the black-faced general should probably consider the strategy of breaking the wrist of the strong man, leaving a part of the army to break the back, and then let the other part of the soldiers escape...... In fact, that's exactly what he did.

As he watched as some campfires gathered behind the fortifications, Josia withdrew his gaze and waved his hand to summon the heralds. Calmly said, "Order." The left and right wings went up to surround the place. Don't worry about those who have already fled, and wipe out the remaining enemy forces as much as possible...... Also, let General Frey pull back. ”

"Yes. The herald nodded, turned and hurried down the mound.

"Hehe, chief, you do this, Brother Frey will come back and make trouble, you must know that this is the last time he will charge. With a chuckle, the freckled young officer stepped forward. Shaking his head and laughing.

seems to be extremely familiar, and this behavior seems to be a bit casual and intimate, not respectful enough. But in fact, looking at the just right position half a body behind Josia, I knew that this young man was a smart man and had an excellent grasp of proportion.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and Josia also shook his head with a smile: "Fei Rui, what Brother Frey likes is the feeling of breaking the formation, and now the enemy formation has long been broken by him, and the rest of the time is just cleaning up the battlefield." Don't blame me. And ......" paused and sighed softly. Alas, the old Marshal Oumeng's health is deteriorating, and he can't be allowed to work in the military anymore, otherwise...... Well, now, Big Brother Frey is very important to this gray army!"

Needless to say, this young officer was naturally one of Donne's few friends in the Gray Army, Fei Rui! Listening to Joshia's slightly helpless emotion, Fei Rui's expression was slightly gloomy, and he couldn't help but be silent.

It stands to reason that with the purple-chested cannon, a big killer, the gray-clothed army is naturally much stronger in combat now than before. The actual situation is almost the same, but it must be pointed out that the current gray army also has a very serious shortcoming - only generals, no marshals!

During the retreat of Dawning City, the old marshal Oumeng was slightly injured, only slightly, and everyone, including Oumeng himself, didn't care. After all, judging from the decades of Oumeng's ups and downs on the battlefield and thousands of battles, a few small injuries are not worth mentioning at all, at most they leave another scar, which is also a unique medal belonging to a warrior!

But then the situation was not like this at all, since ancient times, famous generals are like beauties, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world. I don't know if it is because of old age and decay, and the various functions of the body have deteriorated rapidly, these small injuries on Oumeng's body have not improved, but have become more and more severe. Eventually, couch ......

The significance and important role of Marshal Oumeng to the Gray Army is naturally self-evident, and it is no exaggeration to say that the Gray Army was brought up by Luosha and supported by Oumeng. If the Grey Army is compared to an ocean-going warship, Losha is the rudder that controls the direction, and Omon is the bow of the sword that splits the waves of the sea!

But now, the bow of the ship collapsed, and the old Marshal Omon fell......

The military structure of the Grey Army is relatively simple, if it is placed in front, even if the old Marshal Oumeng falls, one person can be selected from the generals of the original armies. But not now, don't forget, during the previous honeymoon between the Grey Army and Bran, the Gray Army sent a large number of soldiers to the front line one after another according to the agreement, and joined the Bran army to resist the invasion of the Northern Barbarians. Among them, there are the top generals of the first, second, and fourth armies of the former Gray Army!

Needless to say, after the Northern Barbarians retreated, Bran tore up the contract and blatantly attacked the gray-clothed reinforcements, and the three generals made the same choice in order to minimize the damage to the troops - they stayed to attract Bran's army to attack, so that his soldiers could flee as much as possible. In the end, they didn't come back......

There are still generals of the three armies and the five armies, among them, the generals of the five armies basically do not need to be considered. This is not to say that his military ability is inadequate, but the difference in tactical style. The generals of these five armies are extremely good at defensive warfare, and even Oumeng cannot admit his attainments in defending the city. But the problem is that he is only good at defensive warfare, and he is good enough, but he is not enterprising enough, and his attainments in attacking fortifications are much worse. However, now the focus of the Gray Army is revenge, and the next step will be to hit the 100,000 mountains and attack the hinterland of Bran, which is naturally beyond the strength of the generals of the Fifth Army.

And excluding him, the only one left is the general of the three armies. He doesn't have a tactical style problem, but his other problems are even more serious than that......

When Bosko was about to betray last year, all the forces that his family had infiltrated into the army worked together, among which the situation of the three armies was the most severe, and the one who opened the gate of Dawn City and put the enemy army in, that is, the Great Sword Regiment of the three armies.

In this way, the reputation of the three armies in the gray-clothed army is naturally not much better. As the supreme general of the three armies, the general was unclear, and he was under great pressure of apology, and his heart seemed to have a shadow. Although the strong have not been defeated. But he was unwilling to take over as a marshal. Even though Josia and the others knew that it didn't have much to do with the general. Strictly speaking, this is a natural and man-made disaster, the Bosko family has been operating in the gray army for many years, and even Luosha, Oumeng and others never imagined that their family roots would be so deep, let alone this general.

But despite the efforts of Josia, Ou Meng and others to persuade him, the general still failed to pass his psychological hurdle after all, and insisted on refusing to accept the marshal......

In this way, the problem is also raised. It is obvious that Ou Meng can no longer serve as a marshal, otherwise he will most likely die in front of the military sandbox. And the one who is most qualified to inherit this position. Either they have been sacrificed, or the tactical style is not suitable, or there is something wrong with the mentality...... There is a huge gray-clothed army, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and there is no leader, and there is no leader, this has to be said to be a really ridiculous thing!

In desperation, Josia and the others could only abandon the item of qualifications and look down. Fortunately, the freshman group also has the benefits of the freshman group, and the current gray army organization is relatively simple. The human heart is also very simple, and it used to be respected by Luosha. Now led by Josia. As long as they give authoritative orders, there is basically no objection. In other words, even if you are dissatisfied, it is just dissatisfaction at that time, and it will not have any adverse effects...... So when Josia decided to put aside seniority and brainstorm a fair choice among officers above the regimental level. That crowd is fair competition, and people who don't have a similar position as a deputy general will feel that this method is insulting their status or something......

Of course, the candidate selected in this way naturally cannot be directly the marshal, and it always takes a while to prove his ability and convince Josia and others that he can lead the three armies!

Although there are some limitations, the future is great after all, so there are many people who are tempted for a while. It's just that although the net is wide, there are very few targets that can really enter the eyes of Josia and other high-level officials.

No way, this is the selection of the marshal, not the selection of the foreman. As the saying goes, one general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies. The current gray-clothed army can't withstand any toss, so the conditions in all aspects are naturally harsh to the point of outrageous.

It was at this time that Frey came into everyone's field of vision. If it is based on qualifications, Frey, who has just stepped on the boundary of the rank above the regiment and has the qualifications to participate in the selection, naturally does not have any advantages at all. Although there is no practical standard for the loyalty to the Grey Army, Frey, who only joined the Grey Army in the past two years, is certainly not qualified......

But while that doesn't work, it's not enough. But it has to be said that Frey is very capable of fighting, fighting tough battles and winning battles, but it is an indisputable fact. In the internal training and war of the Gray Army, the spear regiment led by Frey won the record of domineering and undefeated, and no one has been able to break it so far!

And it is worth mentioning that the old marshal Ormont is also very optimistic about Frey, as early as two years ago, when Frey first joined the Gray Army, Ormont had the idea of accepting him as an assistant, and he also mentioned it in person. It's just that at that time, Frey joined the Gray Army and wanted to go up with his own ability, so he politely rejected Oumeng's kindness.

As the saying goes, gold shines everywhere, and Frey's professional military literacy is not a problem at all, not to mention the undefeated gold body in the gray army. Detailing the previous history, the spear that broke through the Bran army broke through the name of the camp, and it was also the three armies of Yongzhen, and his legend is still circulating in the Thunder Legion. In this way, under the condition that Josia decided not to ask about seniority or background, he naturally shined among the marshal candidates.

In addition to this, there is actually a little hidden reason. Not many people know about it, but it also has an extremely important role - the relationship between Frey and Donne!

As mentioned earlier, there are not many people who can really be regarded as friends in the Gray Army, excluding Josia, who is his own family, the first one is Frey, and the two have a lifelong friendship. Two years ago, it was Don who dragged Frey and the others to join the Gray Army.

Of course, Josia knew this very well, so it was certainly impossible to say that she was not selfish. There are many things in the world that seem to be coincidental, but when you look closely, many of them are also man-made. For example, there are just enough selection boundaries for Frey to be eligible......

Of course, it's not actually cheating. First of all, this is for the sake of the gray army, and it is also a good thing to relax the boundaries and allow more officers to participate. Moreover, even if Josia secretly helps, if Frey doesn't fight himself, it will be in vain. After all, things in the army still have to rely on real skills to speak!

Another example is Fairy, who now stands next to Josia, a friend with terrifying mental arithmetic abilities who Don praised as a smart man. Josia also gave him a lot of power, and promoted him all the way from the head of the army logistics department to one of the powerful figures in the logistics department.

Fairy did not disappoint Josia at all, and in this extremely difficult year, Fairy relied on his terrifying calculation and planning ability to use the limited food almost to the limit, and fully played the maximum role. Although it was nicknamed 'Iron Rooster' in the end, its abilities are truly breathtaking, and it is impossible to accept it......

Okay, let's get down to business.

There is no need to elaborate on the process of selecting candidates for marshal, except that Frey eventually became the candidate! Even after two years of delay, he still came to the dying old Omon and listened to the teachings every day. It's just that at this time, the identity is no longer an assistant, but an inheritor......

Of course, as just said, the current Frey is not a marshal in the true sense of the word, and is still in the investigation period. For example, the current pre-war plan for this battle, although it was fully proposed by Frey, still had to be read and discussed by the top of more than ten armies, including Josia, before it was finally decided.

On the battlefield, fighters are changing rapidly, and this slightly cumbersome and procrastinating mode is naturally problematic. However, Josia and others are also helpless, after all, this is a big issue related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people. It can be said that they have given Frey the greatest rights and freedoms, and the rest can only be verified slowly through guò time. And......

Condescendingly, watching Frey in the distance lead the old brothers to withdraw from the fortifications and stride towards this side, Josia couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and his expression of regret flashed away. In fact, there is one more main reason, no one knows except her......

The old marshal Oumeng is not dead, so he naturally has a decisive role in choosing who is the candidate. Among the many candidates, Omon does recognize Frey the most, but this does not mean that Frey is perfect......

Josia vividly remembers Omon's regretful assessment of Frey, a warrior born to fight on the battlefield, and if there were no accidents, he would have grown up to be a handsome man at this age. It's a pity that he spent more than ten years in the mine...... This fault did not deplete his military talents, but greatly delayed and reduced the time and space for his progress. Now he has no problem becoming the general of the first army, but there is still a long way to go before he is the commander of the three armies...... It's a pity!

Shaking his head slightly, looking at Frey, who was chatting happily with his old brother not far away, Josia's eyes flashed slightly, and he was a little surprised.

Perhaps, Brother Frey also knows his own shortcomings and regrets. Therefore, when he asked him to come out to fight for the position of marshal before, he hesitated for a long time before watching himself agree, this should be for the sake of Don's face, and he didn't want to disappoint himself......

It's just that in this way, the weight of the mountain is also on his shoulders. Therefore, Brother Frey insisted on personally leading the team this time and charging for the last time, probably to relieve the pressure on his heart......
