Chapter 40: Chu Lotus drinks the blood of the rivers and lakes
In the city of Quzhou, there are constantly soldiers and horses rushing, and the city gate is going out frequently, and the sound of horses' hooves is endless all night, disturbing people's dreams, which makes the people in the city can't help but mention a little nervous.
The war is coming, the chicken and dog are not yet restless, not to mention the people, where the war passes, there must be a piece of life, bleeding and drifting, displacement is normal, this world, I don't know how many people have been devastated by the war, or starve to death in the wilderness, or blood in the scimitar.
This game of thrones, win or die, this is the choice of those who can participate in this battle for supremacy, they are tired of it, you conquer me, enjoy this feast.
But those ordinary people are different, hundreds of years of war have destroyed this land beyond recognition, relatives are separated and it is rare to see each other, perhaps they have already gone to different places, it is difficult to return home, they have long been tired of war, and they also hate those in power.
I don't know how many people were dragged to the army while eating at home, and on the wedding night, before they could lift the bride's hijab, they went to the battlefield, until they died, and they had to leave their unwilling eyes wide open, but no one touched them with their hands.
The general died in a hundred battles, how many strong men returned in ten years, there are countless dry bones on the battlefield, and people are just tools at this time.
There was a annexation war, one side led the army to attack the city, it could not be attacked for a long time, it was surrounded for three years, the food in the city was exhausted, and there was not half of the grass left.
This is war, far more cruel than imagined, and in order to win, no one cares about the lives of a single city.
As a matter of fact, those ordinary people who are in power don't care at all, and it doesn't matter to them at all, is it possible that there can still be emperors who think about them? They only want peace, and would rather be peaceful dogs than troubled people.
The ancient sage once said that the boat and the people's water, people-oriented, water can carry the boat and can overturn the boat, but this is a premise, if a river is rolling, of course, it can carry the boat to sail, how can the person at the helm not care, if it is just a glass of water on the temple, they will still care?
Without further ado, let's take a look at today's Wan Er and others.
Quzhou, Haozhou, Jinzhou, Linzhou, Hucheng, Qingshang, Liangdu, now under his command, seven cities, the land stretches for no less than 400 miles, although it cannot be compared with those divided land princes for thousands of miles, but it can be regarded as a major force in the barren land.
With Quzhou as the capital, each other is the horns, like a beast that chooses people to eat, and the people are 100,000, which is the root of the war.
Wood show in the forest, the wind will destroy it, today's Quzhou unceremoniously said that it is just a false appearance, although there are 5,000 soldiers and horses from Qili Keng, and Fan Xun five army alliance won a big victory, but also lost thousands of people, the total number of soldiers and horses in the city is only more than 4,000 people, this point of strength, is not enough to protect such a large territory, if Qi Li comes to attack, it will be able to win in one fell swoop with the momentum of destruction and decay, the situation is grim.
"The most important thing now is to increase the number of troops in order to meet the next big battle with Qili. Wang Zhili said.
In the hall, everyone was seated, all with haggard faces, and they were also heartbroken for this Quzhou.
"I have asked people to prepare, before Qi Li marches, there must be no less than 20,000 soldiers, otherwise, this battle may be a little difficult to fight. Fu Junqing said.
Fortunately, in these troubled times, some people are displaced, in order to beg for a bite to eat, whether they are willing or reluctant, there will definitely be people who take refuge, as long as it is not a last resort, they will never start to rob people.
If it is a last resort, in order to live, you can only make this decision, who is a good person? How many people are good people? Sacrifice yourself for others, devote yourself to the people, and be selfless, this is a good person, but these qualities, Wan Er seems to have no one, he is just a normal person, an ordinary person who accidentally stepped on the road to hegemony, in troubled times, good people generally do not live long.
Now they are no longer a small force with no more than a thousand people, and the distribution of power must be clear, and each must perform its own duties in order to ensure the efficiency of things.
The Grand Commander Wan Er, the supreme leader, now almost treats him as an idle position, except for some major decisions, the rest are made by Zhao Tianlang and a few people.
This is also the cleverness of Wan Er, as I said earlier, the biggest advantage of our Wanying Tianwan Commander is that he is self-aware, he is not as good as Zhao Tianlang, he is not as good as Fu Junqing when leading troops to fight, he can't compare to Wang Zhili when he gives advice, and he can't beat Kuang Ao Wang Dao's generation, so let them play freely, too much interference will only backfire.
"How is it in the army?" Wan Er asked, as the supreme commander, there were some things he still had to worry about.
"It's basically stable, but my original soldiers and horses in Quzhou are somewhat out of step with those people and horses who pray for Li, and friction is indispensable. Fu Junqing said that now, he is the commander of the three armies, and he is no longer the head of the army who drinks and exercises.
"Is there a way?" Manji continued.
"Naturally, I am going to disperse all the 5,000 men and horses of Qili, and my veterans from Quzhou will serve as centurions. Fu Junqing said, above this hall, their current relationship is that of a monarch and a minister.
"In this case, if you can't make good arrangements, I'm afraid there will be big problems. Zhao Tianlang couldn't help but worry.
As he said, those soldiers and horses who pray for Li are still wary of Quzhou, and they don't really recognize their new identity, and such a big move may make them unconvinced.
"Don't worry, I have my own plans. Fu Junqing said, he is a member of the military family, and he must have an extraordinary background, and the words of Senior Brother Zhao in his mouth are enough to represent, although the two did not say much, but there must be some origins.
Just imagine, who is Zhao Tianlang's master, who is the first longitudinal and horizontal man today, the existence that has turned the world upside down, how can he be an ordinary person if he can have a relationship with him.
Listening to his words, Zhao Tianlang didn't say more, if Fu Junqing's people couldn't be cleaned up, it would be too insulting to that person's prestige, let alone lead a million heroes in the future.
"Iron Blood Battalion, there will only be six of the eighteen Iron Bloods left, and there will be no surplus of nineteen people in the whole camp, how should I deal with it?" Fu Junqing asked, he was right to Wan Eryan, such a major matter, or should it be left to him.
"The iron-blooded battalion can't decline, this is the soul of the whole army, and it is necessary to select elite soldiers from the original Quzhou army to shake the iron-blooded prestige. "Wan Erdao.
"The name of the eighteen iron-blooded generals is retained, if he and I reach the top, the history books will have their stroke, in addition, the original four hundred soldiers of Quzhou City can be set up vertical and horizontal, and he will be powerful in the world. Wan Er continued, for those soldiers, it was definitely a great honor.
Everyone nodded, agreeing with his statement, this is their old book, in the future, everyone must be able to take charge of themselves, divided, for each leader, together, for the vertical and horizontal iron horse, it is not impossible.
"Tonight, everything can be arranged?" Wan Er continued to ask.
"Everything is ready, just waiting for the fish to bite the hook. Zhao Tianlang said.
The night sky is blue, and the stars are dense, if each one represents a person in the world, I don't know how many will fall tonight.
Fu Junqing stood on the roof of the City Lord's Mansion with his long sword in his hands, with a shining silver moon behind him, coupled with his handsome and demonic face, if the woman saw it, she was destined to make a promise to each other, and she would be mistaken for life at first sight.
Kuang Ao is too, sitting under the night sky, holding the first lotus, impermanence, judge, and the three swords of the Yama ghost buzzing in the cuffs, just waiting to behead all the people.
The black-clothed ink man, the murder king knife, one person and one knife, today, will inevitably show the demeanor of the top 20 in the rivers and lakes.
As soon as Chu He drank the blood of the rivers and lakes, Quzhou became Shura City, and the enemy would die.
