Volume 1: Heroes in Troubled Times Chapter 1: Cannon Fodder Siege

Next Chapter

The first year of the Wind Kingdom, 668.

The country is at war all year round, the people are not happy, I don't know where it comes from, the soldiers can eat enough, so that many people join the army, and later the number of deaths is increasing, and the recruitment of troops everywhere has little effect, so the country of Feng has to forcibly grab some strong laborers and enter the army as cannon fodder.

Heihe Fortress is the junction of the Wind Country and the Wei State, and it was originally a military fortress belonging to the Wind Country, but a month ago, the Wei State suddenly launched an attack and took advantage of its unpreparedness to seize the fortress.

The royal family of the Wind Country was furious and wanted to send an army of 200,000 to conquer it.

On the erection day, the soldiers approached the city, the terrifying killing sound sounded, deafening, and the 200,000 army set up a position, ready to forcibly attack the city.

Generalissimo Wang Ce, this marshal, they are not very familiar with it, I heard that the ability is very strong, but this time it seems that this is the first time that the other party has led troops to fight.

"Drumming!"

"Siege!" Wang Ce ordered, the standard-bearers began to wave the flag, and the 200,000-strong army moved quickly towards the Heihe fortress.

The arrows flew in the sky, Zhang Xiao was startled, holding a shield to wrap himself tightly, holding a big iron sword in his hand, he ran with the crowd, because he was relatively short, so the arrows did not hit him at all.

The comrades-in-arms around him fell one after another, Zhang Xiao didn't pay attention to it at all, most of these people he didn't know, remembering yesterday's chat, there was an uncle feeding pigs at home, and he was forcibly pulled over, which made him very depressed.

This is a war, this is a war depends on them, is it feasible?

Wang Ce sat on the horse, his eyes were cold, and his face did not change much, fighting a war requires bloodshed and sacrifice, if there is no bloodshed and sacrifice, how can he win the battle?

"Kill!"

The generals in the rear, their eyes were full of bloodlust, and now that the siege was imminent, there were people who wanted to escape, but without the slightest hesitation, they picked up their swords and slashed at the deserters: "Escape from the battlefield, there is only one word in the end - death." ”

Zhang Xiao spat at the mouth, his eyes full of disdain, these generals used them as their backs, hiding in the crowd, and the arrows could not hit them.

"Hmph, this group of dogs is not a leader, and they are still shouting like this, I really don't understand why His Majesty the King didn't send the Iron Legion. ”

At this time, the originally closed city gate suddenly opened, and the Wei soldiers rushed out like a tide, holding spears and rushing wildly.

All this is not over yet, and tens of thousands of people have come down from the high mountains, forming a situation of encirclement.

When Wang Ce saw this scene, his face changed drastically, and he asked the scouts to investigate, there was no ambush on the two high mountains, but where did these soldiers come from now?

Qi Feng, the general of the Wei State, holding a spear and riding a war horse, rushed towards Wang Ce, waving the spear in the air, killing more than a dozen people in a row, and quickly rushed to Wang Ce's side, and the shadow of the spear stabbed out in the sky.

Piercing the other party's calf, seeing this scene, Wang Ce's undead spirit was furious, his face was extremely ugly, and he drove the war horse to flee to the rear.

Now he still has palpitations, he doesn't care about the 200,000 army at all, Nima is first of all to save his life, as for other things, anyway, he is standing behind the Wang family, and he is not afraid of royal punishment.

Fuck you!

The sharp-eyed Zhang Xiao looked at Wang Ce who fled, scolded, slammed the shield in his hand to the ground, got a little blood from the corpse, and lay on the ground, the little fat man next to him watched Zhang Xiao's movements, his eyes widened.

"Damn, it turns out that you can still play like this. ”

"Ah, I'm being stabbed, I'm going to die, I'm going to die. After saying that, he lay down next to Zhang Xiao and pretended to be dead.

The battle continued, Zhang Xiao and the little fat man fell asleep in the war, and I have to say that the two of them have really big hearts.

Cannon fodder is destined to be slaughtered, and the elite use them to resist the pursuit of the enemy army and preserve the living force.

When the night came, when Zhang Xiao woke up, he hit a spirit, and there were corpses all over the mountains, which could be described as corpses all over the field, and blood flowed like a river.

Looking at the little fat man who was still sleeping, he was angry, and he kicked over: "When are you still sleeping, wait for Wei Jun to come again." ”

When Yang Qi heard this, he stood up suddenly, looked at Zhang Xiao and smiled: "Boss, my name is Yang Qi, and I will be your little brother in the future!"

"I don't plan to take in my little brother!" At this time, Zhang Xiao said with a dark face.

Yang Qi waved his hand without caring at all and said, "It's okay, anyway, I, Yang Qi, think that you are my boss, if you don't come up with a way, you will definitely die today." ”

Zhang Xiao frowned, he was only sixteen years old now, it was the first time he had seen such a big scene, and he didn't feel anything when he was fighting, and now that the Wei army had returned to the fortress, he suddenly felt a wave of nausea in his body, and he stood next to him and vomited.

After waiting for a while, Zhang Xiao looked at Yang Qi, his face was full of surprise, such a tragic scene, this guy didn't even feel the slightest.

Yang Qi seemed to understand his doubts and scratched his head: "Hehe, boss, our family runs a slaughterhouse, and this kind of scene has long been accustomed to it." ”

"Your uncle!"

Just as he was about to leave, he found the body of a Wind Country general, with a black booklet hidden in his arms, carefully put it away, and then shouted Yang Qi and ran outside.

On the way, the two of them had already discussed, not to go home first, to find a place to be incognito, and sneak back after a while, after all, they went back alive, and if they were arrested as deserters, the end would be even more miserable.

"Whoa—"

"Who are you?" More than a dozen warriors wearing the armor of the Wind Army instantly surrounded them, Zhang Xiao looked at them holding torches in their hands, and there were neatly placed corpses next to them.

Standing up straight suddenly, with a hint of light flashing in his eyes, he gave a standard military salute of the Wind Army: "Report to the captain, the two of us were injured, we were knocked out by the enemy, we just woke up, we wanted to look for the big army, I didn't expect to meet you, oh, by the way, what about our big army?

Han Li nodded: "The generalissimo has been injured and has returned to the national capital, as for the large army, hehe, where is there still a large army now, there are less than 50,000 left in the 200,000 army, and most of them are injured." ”

Han Li shook his head, looking very helpless, in fact, he was also very depressed, he didn't know what the king meant, everyone in the Iron Blood Legion knew about it in the Wind Country, and they were not allowed to participate in such an important battle, but sent Wang Ce, who had just graduated from Tianyang Academy, to come out and end up in such a situation.

This is related to politics and national affairs, and it is not something that a small soldier can control, they can only fight a good battle seriously and strive to leave alive.

Because of Han Li's relationship, Zhang Xiao and Yang Qi's escape plan was once again in vain, so they had to follow each other back to the Feng Army camp.

Yang Qi said that he was going to sleep, and Zhang Xiao was covered with blood, extremely uncomfortable, and was going to take a shower, and then see what was written in the black booklet.

Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, carrying a big bucket, he walked to a remote place, looked left and right, and found that there was no one, so he took out the black booklet and watched it in the moonlight.

Yellow Order Advanced Exercises: Fire Source Technique.

The hands holding the black booklet kept trembling, the pupils dilated, and I secretly exclaimed in my heart: My day, it turned out to be a fighting qigong method, do you want to hang it like this!!
