The Earth Conquers All Worlds

Chapter 734 Dragon Banner

The Dagan military system adopts a typical Shiwu system, with one hundred people as one capital, five capitals as one battalion, five battalions as one army, and ten armies as one wing, known as the owner of the wing, with 25,000 men.

This is already the highest military position under the Dagan routine, and the person in command must be a Jiedushi who has obtained the emperor's holy rank. Setting up a Jiedushi privately is no different from rebellion.

But now, there are only 20,000 people below, and the county soldiers who are walking along the mountain road are flying the bright yellow banner of Jiedushi awarded by the Son of Heaven.

Not only that, one step behind is the bright yellow seven-hanging dragon flag!

The Dragon Banner is owned by the Son of Heaven and the feudal lords, and the highest is the supreme Son of Heaven, Jiu Chuian. Dagan has no kings with the same or different surnames except the Emperor.

So this must represent the arrival of someone in the royal family's direct line, either the prince or the emperor's brothers, and people like the emperor's uncle are not eligible to use the seven dragon flags, at most six.

In the middle of the army, seventy-two tall and strong warriors carried a wide building called a sedan chair, but it was actually called a small palace. You can't find any faults in the etiquette here.

In the spacious palace, a handsome young man with a prominent head and a purple face said lightly: "General Xiong, you can complain in your heart that this pampered prince came to make trouble and made trouble for a little refugee. Do you have to mobilize the teachers and mobilize the people, and waste the people and waste money?"

thump!

Kongwu was powerful in front of him, and the long-bearded old man in the red robe embroidered with lions of the second rank was so frightened that he knelt down from the chair next to the small half.

"His Royal Highness Chu, you care about the country, and you came here to put down the rebellion not far away. All the civil and military officials in Lingzhou are happy and encouraged. How can you have the slightest resentment?"

He sternly said: "If there are such villains who don't understand the general situation and have no regard for the interests of the court, Xiong Feihu will definitely take them down with his own hands, and only by eating their flesh and sleeping their skin can he relieve his hatred."

The words did not quote the scriptures like the scholar of the middle school, they were beautiful and gorgeous, but a bit vulgar, but there was a faint aura of battle, which made the faces of several young eunuchs around him pale.

"Bold!"

The surrounding guards instinctively put their hands on the handle of the knife and looked at him coldly, with undisguised warning and killing intent in their eyes.

Xiong Feihu was so frightened that he expelled all evil spirits, knelt on the ground and tremblingly said: "Your Highness, I am not..."

"Hahaha! General Xiong is indeed a general of a hundred battles,

It is not in vain that I chose you from among the generals in Lingzhou. "

Chu Wang Fangyuan waved his hand, signaling the nervous guards and Xiong Feihu to relax: "I don't blame you for saying this, it's all human nature, we are not saints after all."

"Your Highness, we will never wait..." Xiong Feihu still wanted to defend himself, but was stopped again by Chu Wang Fang Yuan.

"It's not that I'm just looking for trouble. Even if I want to mess around, my father won't allow it. Although I can't tell General Xiong the specific reason, but"

Fang Yuan, King of Chu, said solemnly: "General Xiong, if you can wipe out the bandits that appeared in the Tumo Department this time, I will guarantee you with the head of the head, and your title of Viscount will definitely be raised a bit."

"But if it fails, no matter what the reason is..."

Xiong Feihu said in a deep voice: "Yes, Your Highness, this subordinate knows."

The title has been raised a bit? That is the Marquis!

His heart was hot and cold, and he threw away the last trace of contempt in his heart.

The royal family is entrusted with the mandate of heaven and knows many secrets that others do not know. The enemy they are about to face will definitely not be ordinary thieves.

Thinking of this, Xiong Feihu suggested: "Your Highness, the army of the seven counties of Lingzhou has only gathered three counties, and the other four counties are far away, and it will take several months to arrive. Why don't we wait?"

Originally, he thought that the prince was young, and it was too nonsense to use the whole state's troops, but now that the lives of the whole family were involved, the more such nonsense, the better.

"General Xiong has a good heart."

Chu Wang Fangyuan shook his head: "But you don't know, this gang of thieves is now at its weakest. If we wait a few more months, we will not only face an enemy of thousands or less than 10,000."

The army is like a huge black mansion, advancing along the winding road. The metal armor and the banners on it are its scales, appearing and disappearing from time to time among the dense forests.

In the forested valley, the sound of cicadas and birds is smaller than that of other places.

‘If it’s really a regular army, the equipment and order are much better than those of the Tumo Department. '

Zhao Shi silently stared at the troops passing by below, only a few scattered Ouyang Wu around, and the others were covered by the dense jungle.

Dagan scouts came several times, but failed to find their traces.

Ouyang Wu reported: "Zhao Shi, this large army of 20,000 people has all entered the jungle."

"Attack as planned."

Whoosh!

There were no traces of gongs, drums and flags. Hundreds of arrows were suddenly shot out of the ordinary jungle. The flight trajectory was not perfect, but the deviation was maintained within three meters. A blood flower blooms.

"Enemy attack! Raise your shield!"

Yingzheng looked in horror at the team that lost more than a hundred people in an instant, and screamed, trying to organize the panicked soldiers.

It's just that the Lingzhou army is just an ordinary county soldier, not an elite soldier, so how could they react when they were attacked.

After suffering three waves of arrow rain in succession and losing more than 200 people, they barely used shields to defend, and there were no more casualties.

Although the arrows made of bamboo and wood are equipped with metal heads, the power given by the bamboo bow is not enough. In addition to causing a large number of casualties to unarmored units, if the arrows of people wearing scale armor do not hit the bare skin, they cannot be pierced at all. through.

It is even more impossible to penetrate the skinned round shield that has been erected.

"Hold on! Don't panic, reinforcements are coming!"

More than 200 soldiers formed a circular formation with the help of shields, panicked under the huge casualties, and managed to maintain order under the loud reassurance of the battalion.

Indeed, although the county soldiers in Lingzhou are not elite, they are also regular troops who receive drills every year, and the military regulations are extremely strict.

If the friendly army is in danger and fails to save the officer, the officer will be executed, and the subordinate soldiers will also be sent to the crime camp to perform their crimes and meritorious deeds before they can be pardoned.

Immediately after this battalion was attacked, four or five battalions rushed over from both sides of the march, and the news was sent further afield by the messengers.

Whoosh!

Before the battalion, which had suffered heavy losses, could breathe a sigh of relief, the dense rain of arrows immediately covered all the reinforcements, and the scattered formation immediately ushered in casualties. Dozens of people died, and the rain of arrows struck again.

"Raise the shield! Bow and arrow shoot!"

These battalions in distress on the way responded similarly, and the archers accompanying the battalion immediately counterattacked, shooting more powerful and dense arrow rain into the dense jungle, covering a forest.
