The sun rises and sets, for three consecutive days, except for making fires and making meals, almost all of them are forced marches without sleep. I don't even give time to sleep. The Condensation Realm soldiers, who accounted for a large proportion of the army, would soon be unable to bear it.

Large-scale incidents of falling behind began to occur, and various fights and brawls also emerged one after another. There was a strong smell of gunpowder in the whole army, which burned at a moment.

However, the leopard spirit didn't seem to intend to slow down at all, and even pushed harder than before.

I heard that the vanguard under the personal command of the Lion Camel King had already started a confrontation with Yang Jian's Guanjiangkou army. As a result, it is even less likely to tolerate the late arrival of the main forces.

Presumably, the Lion Camel King was also urging the Leopard Spirit, and in order to suppress the rebellion in the army, the Leopard Essence even ordered the stragglers to be executed on the spot.

This is a very harsh command. On the first day alone, two thousand soldiers were beheaded. Together, there are two people of the same level as the monkey who were all dragged to the funeral because of the reduction of more than half of their subordinates.

If you really want to talk about it, it's not that these two of them really don't govern the army strictly, but because the troops under their command were originally minced army. The minced meat army, who don't even have the Concentration Realm and lack training on weekdays, do you expect them to forcibly march in this environment for eight days and eight nights in a row?

It's just a joke.

I have to say that both of them died unjustly.

Leopard Spirits don't care about that, though. His task was only to complete this forced march, and as for how many people died in the middle, and who died unjustly, this was not in his consideration at all. Because of this, his wrists are getting tougher and tougher.

Unfortunately, this order on the third day did not have any deterrent effect, but became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

That night, a large number of minced troops fled, and they fled under the leadership of their respective leaders. As a result, the Eastern Crusade army fought its first battle after the expedition, and the opponent was its own army.

This is probably something that no one expected.

Standing on the hillside, the monkey saw the light of the fire all over the mountain, and countless soldiers of the minced meat unit were desperately sprinting out, trying to escape.

Shouts, roars, wails, almost everywhere. The unwilling faces are full of desire to survive.

However, the regular army, which was several times larger than them, was ordered to encircle and intercept them.

In the night, the blood slowly soaked the soil, the vultures hovered in the sky, and the demon soldiers with weapons in their hands walked on the ground covered with corpses to carefully examine and mend the survivors......

At dawn, countless heads were piled up into a hill and sent to the leopard spirit.

The sun rose behind him, and a great shadow hung over the heads of the great army.

"Anyone who evades military service will die! Anyone who neglects military orders will die!"

Standing on the back of the slave beast, he roared hysterically at the whole army.

For a long speech, this is probably the longest he has said since he set out on the expedition. The monkey standing in the back row couldn't hear what he was saying, but the monkey could clearly see the fear on everyone's face, including the crocodile spirit.

At this moment, the entire army, regardless of official rank, is in danger.

With the sound of the trumpet, the march began again.

The crocodile spirit crept up to the monkey and said in a squirming voice, "Well, how do you keep your subordinates from falling behind?" ”

The monkey couldn't believe his ears, and blinked at the crocodile spirit, his brow furrowed.

Seeing this, the crocodile spirit couldn't help but sigh and said, "The previous things are all in the past, I don't want to worry about it, and I don't have time to worry about it." Now everyone is in the same boat, you can't do it, I'm not happy. I can't bear it, and you can't think about it, you know?"

Hearing this, the monkey couldn't help but laugh. It was a mocking laugh, so much so that the crocodile spirit's face was a little ugly.

Turning around, the monkey glanced at the demon soldier who was being carried on the camel behind him, and said, "It's nothing, just let the people of the God Realm share it." With rotation, it's a lot better. ”

"That's it?"

"What else do you think?"

Stretching his neck, the crocodile spirit looked the entire monkey army up and down, and when he was sure that it was really no different, he walked away suspiciously.

In terms of official position, he is one level higher than the monkey, but in essence, it is actually no different.

If it was before, how could you let the monkey think that the crocodile spirit who can decide his life and death at will will be forced to take the initiative to make peace with himself?

There is a thing in this world called "reality", and it is something that everyone has to bow their heads in front of it.

According to the military system commonly adopted by the Three Realms, below the lion camel king, it is divided into tooth generals, partial generals, capital commanders, centurions, and military commanders.

The tooth general commanded 10,000 troops, the partial general commanded 3,000 troops, the capital commanded 500 troops, the centurion commanded 100 troops, and the Wu commander commanded 10 troops. The official level crushed people to death.

In front of the leopard spirit, a crocodile spirit who is a partial general of the regular army, is actually nothing.

Soon, the monkey's skills were spread among the crocodile spirit's troops. Although other units are not like the monkeys, they used this rotation method at the beginning, and even if they are adopted now, they cannot completely stop the loss of soldiers, but at least it is much better, isn't it?

In order to survive to the end, several capitals began to take care of each other under the movement of the crocodile spirit.

On the fourth day of the march, eight hundred were beheaded because they had fallen behind. However, it was not because the troops were in better condition than before, but because the night before, almost all of the minced army had been cleared in the defection. A total of nearly 40,000 little demons.

On the fifth day of the march, one thousand nine hundred. Among them, the first regular army of the capital appeared. Rumors began to circulate in the army, and some regular army commanders who saw that their subordinates were not good had also begun to plan to escape. An atmosphere of despair began to permeate.

Day 6, zero. Because the leopard spirit can't bear it himself. Of course, it's not that I can't bear it physically, but psychologically.

If you continue like this, you don't have to wait to reach your destination, and on the way, the whole army should disperse. When he left the Lion Camel Country, he brought with him an army of 200,000, and the army of flesh alone, those who fled and those who were beheaded were already 50,000. If only half of the army was left when he arrived, what would you think the Lion Camel King would do to him?

Although forced marching is the first priority nowadays, it is clear that no matter how cheap the soldier's life is, it is also the lion camel king's belongings. The leopard spirit can't afford to bear the responsibility of not engaging the enemy and losing half of himself first.

In desperation, the leopard spirit had to order to camp and rest on the spot. Although it was only three hours, when he announced the order, the cheers of the army were much more enthusiastic than the victory of the battle.

At that moment, both the monkey and the crocodile spirit let out a long breath. The demon soldiers, who had already reached the limit, fell to the ground one by one.

It was night, and every corner of the barracks was snoring.

It was probably the quietest night the Lion Camel Army had ever had. Every demon soldier is hurrying to rest, and he doesn't even have the strength to make trouble.

The most difficult moment finally passed, and in any case, not a single monkey was lost of the four hundred and eighty-two soldiers.

In the early morning of the ninth day, this army from afar finally stood on the top of the mountain and saw their enemy, the Guan Jiangkou Army.

Almost endless barracks, fortresses built against the mountains, and countless suspended ships suspended in the sky.

The banner of the word "Yang" was gently rolling in the wind. This is the only army in the entire celestial army sequence that uses the commander's surname as its banner.

From a distance, the monkey could clearly see the generals in silver armor and black undershirts lining up in the camp for training, and more than half of them were youkai.

A giant dryad was slowly hoisting a crossbow and installing it at the top of the fortress. A wild boar walked with a big belly and a huge wooden stake. A group of feathered demons flapped their wings and circled back and forth in the air, not knowing whether they were on guard or searching for something......

"The Guanjiangkou Army actually has ...... Monsters?" the monkeys were dumbfounded.

"I didn't expect it, right?" The crocodile spirit on the side sneered: "The Guanjiangkou Army is an outlier of the Heavenly Army, not only there are monsters among the soldiers, but Yang Jian's general, the Seven Saints of Meishan, all of them are monsters. ”

With that, the crocodile spirit grinned, glanced at the monkey mockingly with a hillbilly look, and turned away.

The white frost on the side asked in a low voice, "Since they also have monsters, why do they want to fight us?"

"You should ask, why do the monsters want to take refuge in Yang Jian. Da Hong accosted.

Tilting his head, the monkey couldn't quite figure it out.

However, these things were not what he should be thinking about now.

Far away from the Guanjiangkou Army, the Lion Camel Army also built its own front, but except for those battleships flying in the air, it looked much more dilapidated.

Wooden fences, wooden forts, wooden sentry posts. All of them are simple wooden structures.

The Guan Jiangkou Army is a permanent camp, while the Lion Camel Army is actually a temporary camp. If you really want to fight, the defense will definitely not be as good as the permanent camp of the Guanjiangkou Army. Of course, the Lion Camel King is now forced to go to Liangshan, and he can't control it so much.

After camping, the monkey quickly received an order - to be on guard and watch out for the sneak attack of the Jiangkou army at night.

So, although they arrived at their destination, the demon soldiers in the entire camp could only take turns to rest, tense their nerves one by one. After all, everyone knows that Yang Jian is the number one general in Heavenly Court and is the best at assault warfare. It only takes one charge to tear him open. Basically, this force is hopeless.

Yang Jian has done this kind of thing countless times, and this is how the name of the first general of the Heavenly Court came about.

However, the reality is that Yang Jian was unexpectedly not sent troops to attack that night. The monkey and his companions stood guard at the entrance of the camp and blew the wind all night.

Early the next morning, accompanied by the war drums and trumpets of both sides, the army began to line up and confront.
