Chapter 459 Ziyi Military God! (five thousand five)(1/2)
Once the wind blows, clouds move from all directions!
Within a few days, the situation on the front line changed several times. An Shuai endured for half a year and finally started to explode. He waved his hand and ordered the barbarians on the line to launch a large-scale attack, which made the turbulent and smoke everywhere. The Cangyan Legion was not unprepared for this. In fact, they had expected this situation a long time ago, but their own strength was not as strong as the other party. In addition, they could not have thought that the opponent's attack would be so fierce and so suddenly... The defense line instantly collapsed, and the position was lost countless times, and there was nothing he could do.
At this moment, the news that Zi Yi was about to lead his troops to reinforce the Cangyan Legion suddenly came out, and the battle situation turned around again in an instant!
Since the war started, the situation has actually been a bit strange. The thunder and Cangyan Legion on both sides fought hard, and beacons everywhere. However, the Zichen Legion, which is the most critical location, is calm and the barbarians are not in trouble, as if they have never seen the existence of this place in their sight.
Everyone naturally knows the reason, because the Zi Yi army god sitting here is the Zi Chen army god who looks down on the world, and the Zi Chen Legion that shocks the continent! Now that no one dares to come to provoke him, he can only take the initiative to attack and find out his edge.
Regardless of whether the news is true or not, it is true that Zi Yi has not yet walked out of Xiongguan City. But even so, it is enough to attract all parties to look at each other frequently and move in secret. It is like a lion entrenched in the deep mountains. Although he has not hunted out of his cave, he roars up his head, and all the beasts thousands of miles are trembling, and the wolf runs and rabbits...
...
At noon, Xiongguan City.
It was still in the purple room, and there was still a heat wave. However, the owner here took off his usual purple fluff cloak and wore a set of one-piece armor made of unknown metal.
This armor is light purple in color and is as smooth as a mirror. If you look closely, you can also see natural irregular spots inside the metal, like a deep and quiet sea of stars!
There is only one set of armor on the entire continent. It is extracted from meteorites outside the sky and forged into shape by skilled craftsmen. The manpower, financial resources, time, etc. consumed during this period are unknown to outsiders. Only know that in the end, King Bran personally gave it to its master, the Ziyi Military God!
In a sense, perhaps it is possible to know from this armor alone that the news that Zi Yi is about to lead his troops out of Xiongguan City is not groundless.
Touching the smooth shoulder armor, Zi Yi raised her head and chuckled: "Haha, the mission and destination of the armor are on the battlefield. But I only passed this armor during the seal ceremony, and then I have been at the bottom of the military warehouse for so many years. Thinking about it, I feel wronged."
"Haha, Marshal, why are you wronged? Who else can wear this armor except you on the whole continent?"
"Not bad. And now the war is imminent, and it will follow the marshal and will naturally complete its mission and obtain the glory it deserves!"
“…”
As last time, there were about a dozen well-dressed generals gathered in the house. They looked at Zi Yi's mysterious armor, their eyes were burning and they all exclaimed sincerely. This was not flattery, but a soldier's yearning for the symbol of the highest honor!
He waved his hand, "Cough cough... Haha, there is not so much complex meaning. The reason why I don't wear it is because it is not as warm as other clothes." After twisting his body, Zi Yi looked helpless, and a self-deprecating look appeared on the corner of his mouth, "And I have lost a lot of weight over the years, and I can't hold it up a little, and I don't wear it in a fit."
Not warm, not fit... The generals looked at each other and didn't know how to answer for a moment. I'm afraid that the only one in front of me could look down on this armor so despise this set of armor in the entire Bran Empire!
"Okay, let's talk about the main business first." Zi Yi said with a straight expression, "The news of reinforcement of the Cangyan Legion has been released, and now the combat preparations are intact, so we must count them. Well, the legion has a total of five armies here. Except for one army to defend Xiongguan City, the other four armies are all going to fight. Who wants to go and who wants to stay?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a general with a rough face walked out first: "Marson, my gang can't hold it anymore. No matter what, our army is the first to ask for a fight."
Zi Yi nodded and chuckled: "Haha, okay, you're the one!"
"Haha, Marshal Xie!" The rough general was overjoyed when he heard this, wiped off his sweat on his forehead, and quickly returned to his original position after receiving the order, as if he was worried that the military order would fly away in the next moment.
Seeing this impatient look, the generals couldn't help but smile. After teasing a few times, they walked out and asked for their orders.
"Marson, our army requested the battle."
"Our army asked for a fight... I said, Lao Wa, you are not particular about it. Didn't your army just fight last time? Why did he join in the fun? It's our army's turn this time!"
"Just fought? Is it okay to have some brains? The last time that was three years ago. How can I count now? Marshal, our army firmly requested the battle!"
"Bah! Or we should first compete, whoever wins will play..."
...
The hut that was still peaceful just now was instantly drowned by all kinds of noises. The generals all fought red and spit out. They were excited and even had a general-level military contest on the spot.
This situation is actually normal here. Whenever a battle mission is issued, several generals have to fight for it. The reason is that the Zichen Legion is famous. In recent years, barbarians always consciously avoid it when attacking. Therefore, the generals of the Zichen Legion are full of strategies and elite soldiers, but they have no battle to fight, which is really a big deal.
However, the debate did not last long, because the general saw the few people who did not participate in the competition, and suddenly slapped his thigh: "Isn't it just one army left behind? Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to let the four armies who are good at fighting defensive wars stay?"
As soon as this statement came out, the scene suddenly became quiet. The generals came to their senses and suddenly realized, and then collectively transferred the target of the "attack".
"Good idea, can you let the Fourth Army stay."
"Yes, Mr. Tang has the reputation of Bran's second border line, so there will definitely be no problem in defensive battles."
"I agree..."
...
"Uh..." General Tang, who was sitting firmly beside him, was stunned when he saw this, then smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Okay, since none of you are willing to stay, let's guard our fourth army."
"Haha, that's great." The generals were overjoyed when they heard this. Some saw that Mr. Tang was a little reluctant and said with a smile. "General Tang was always serious. Only when he was handed over to you to guard Xiongguan City, everyone would have no worries. And maybe some barbarians who were blindly blinded and bumped into your hands and easily made great contributions."
"Go, go, go... don't make fun of me." How could the old general Tang not tell that this was a joke? Moreover, although his army is known for fighting defensive battles, he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable if he couldn't participate in such a great opportunity, so he waved his hands and drove the few people away. At this moment, a quiet voice suddenly sounded,
"It's better, our army will guard!"
"Uh?" The overjoyed generals and the somewhat regretful Mr. Tang were stunned when he heard this. He turned his head and found that the one who spoke was Relf who had been silent.
"General Lei... Well, the second army is indeed a good choice."
Relf led the Zichen Army. His army was not entirely known for its defense, but was known for its ability to attack and defend well. In this way, there would naturally be no problem in defending the city. And more importantly, this was proposed by Relf himself. Of course, the generals could not compete with him.
"Or why don't you let General Lei defend it. Mr. Tang has been steady for most of his life. It's time to fight a beautiful battle."
"I have no objection..."
At this time, Zi Yi, who was sitting in the upper head, pressed down her palm and signaled everyone to be quiet. Then she looked at Relf with a plain face and frowned slightly: "You two army are going to defend the city?"
Relf looked up and met Zi Yi's gaze, looking unpredictable, and nodded slightly: "Yes."
"Cough cough..." After coughing for a few moments, Zi Yi stroked his palm and raised his head a little: "Okay, your two armies will guard Xiongguan City. Well, but I have many inconveniences in my movements. Relf, you can follow me to assist in command."
After a moment of silence, Relf nodded and said concisely: "Yes."
"That's it." Zi Yi closed her eyes and pinched her nose. She seemed tired and waved her hand, "Apart from Relf, the left wing of the third and fourth army, the right wing of the fifth and sixth army, will start according to the agreed route before. Well, this battle is the first time our army has set out after more than ten years of dormant. Please be sure to show the power of the Zichen Legion!"
"Yes!" Swish, the generals were excited, and they all straightened their bodies and saluted a standard military salute, then turned around and pushed the door and left.
As the door closed again, only Zi Yi and Lelf remained in the room. Zi Yi was still closing his eyes and pinching his nose bridge. Lelf was even silent. His expression had not changed from the beginning to the present. Even when sweat dripped through his eyes, he was quietly waiting for it to accumulate water and then fell full... The house fell into silence for a moment.
After a while, Relf stood up and said, "Marcedes-in-law, I'll prepare for a military matter."
"Haha, it's really not easy to wait for the Silent Eagle to speak." As if waiting for Relf to speak, Zi Yi opened her eyes and showed a child-like smile, then waved her hand, "No. I won't lead the first army this time. Well, lead the Ninth Army to fight."
"Nine Army?" Relf's expression, which seemed to be carved with a knife and an axe, rarely showed a look of shock.
Xiongguan City is located in the important place closest to the front line, and usually four or five armies are stationed around it. But this does not mean that all the forces of the Zichen Legion are here. In fact, there are several other armies scattered in all directions to stabilize the defense line. Judging from the registration situation, the Zichen Legion has a total of eight armies!
However, these Eighth Army are only for outsiders to see. People with identities such as Relf know that in fact, the Zichen Legion has the Ninth Army. However, this army is really mysterious. Whether it is military operations such as stationing, training, combat, or logistics supply such as equipment, food, and military pay, they are completely separated from the soldiers of other troops of the Zichen Legion, and form a system.
It can be said that except for knowing that this army was established by Zi Yi more than ten years ago, most of the soldiers inside were homeless people and orphans collected... everyone knew very little about other situations, including several generals such as Relf.
"Yes, it's said that raising troops for a thousand days, using troops for a while. You always have to fight before you know the true combat power of this army. And..." Zi Yi nodded, then wanted to say something else, and her body suddenly trembled violently, "Cough cough... cough cough..."
"Marson." Relf looked reluctant, and took a few steps over and patted Ziyi's back.
The coughing continued to sound, and one sound higher, Zi Yi's originally pale face turned flushed instantly. He grabbed the corner of the table with one hand and drew a few clear finger marks. He waved his hand and pointed at the fluffy cloak on the chair next to him.
Seeing this, Relf immediately ran over, first took out the left and right pockets of the cloak, and it was empty. Then he found a small crystal bottle containing purple liquid in the inner pocket. He ran back quickly, twisted the bottle opening, and handed it to Zi Yi's lips.
There are six or seven furnaces in the corner of the house that are constantly emitting heat, and the crater is just like this. However, Zi Yi's lips are still trembling, and her upper and lower teeth are also bumping at extremely high frequency, as if she fell into an ice cave. After trying several times, the bottle mouth was successfully sent into her mouth.
Gudong...
I don’t know what the purple liquid is made of, but it is certain that it is very effective for the strange condition on Zi Yi. After swallowing it, the violent cough finally stopped.
"call……"
He let out a long breath and slowly lay on the seat. His face was flushed, his thin lips like willow leaves dyed with a light purple luster, and he trembled slightly. If he ignored the Adam's apple that was still shaking up and down, he did have a beautiful and weak womanly charm at this moment.
But this is Zi Yi, who shocked thousands of barbarians and did not dare to step into the Zi Chen Legion's defense zone! Such a huge contrast makes people sigh that the Creator is unreasonable.
"Haha, where did you say just now?" Bo Ye's lips raised slightly, Zi Yi was still smiling, and raised her hand to touch her forehead, "Oh. It's the Nine Army... Well, you have seen it too. If I don't lead the Nine Army to fight a battle, I'm afraid there will be no chance."
Relf's expression fluctuated slightly when he heard this. His lips squirmed a few times, but he wanted to speak but stopped. Finally, he lowered his eyes and remained silent.
"Oh...Okay." Zi Yi sighed inexplicably, holding the table and getting up, "Let's go and accompany me to the city to have a look."
Relf's body was not moving, and he frowned at the warm stove in the corner.
As if I knew what Relf was thinking, Zi Yi waved her hand and smiled, "Haha, I always have to leave these things. I can't take them with me when I lead my troops to the battle."
After saying that, he walked around the table and walked towards the door. Relf looked at Zi Yi's back, pursed his lips, and lowered his head to follow.
As soon as the door opened, an old and charming veteran guarding the gate immediately saluted an extremely standard military salute.
"Haha, Lao Jier." Zi Yi seemed to be familiar with the veteran guarding the goal. After a few greetings, he pointed to the cottage behind him and bent his mouth. "I'll remove the stove inside after I leave. Well, there are many secrets here. Lao Jier, you have to protect it, haha..."
"Yes, don't worry, Marshal!" Old Jier seemed not to hear the jokes in these words, and once again gave a serious military salute, with a loud voice. This made Zi Yi feel bored, smacked her lips, patted the other party's shoulder, and walked out.
The location of Zichen Military Headquarters is the center of Xiongguan City, which should have been the city lord's mansion. However, after Zi Yi led his troops to the place about twenty years ago, the original city lord took the initiative to give up the secondary position. Zi Yi did not refuse at the time, because everyone knew that as long as Zi Yi lived here, there would be no problem with the safety of the city, and the people could continue to live with peace of mind.
Zi Yi came out of the back door, and only the silent Relf accompanied him. The city is too close to the front line. Although it has not been raging for more than 20 years, it is normal for soldiers wearing armor to appear. In addition, Zi Yi came out very rarely, so walking by the street, not many people paid attention to them. Of course, some people who are familiar with military affairs, when they saw the rank of general at the cuff of Relf, and then looked at Zi Yi, their faces were suddenly unstable and they were stunned on the spot...
It was afternoon, and there were many people on the street. They were either rushing to the delivery service, or recruiting friends to go to the tavern to buy drunken youths, or discussing where new clothing shops were opened...all kinds of different types. It can be said that the people here are lucky, even the homeless people who are worried about the dinner. Because, at least they don’t have to face the cruel battlefield of bloody storms!
Walking through it, Zi Yi first began to look excited, and would stop to watch when she met something interesting. But after walking down a few streets, her expression became less and less faint, and she even felt a little resistant. At this moment,
"Damn it, go!" "Battle them to death..." "Black hearted ghosts, you will definitely go to hell..."
There was a lot of noise and curse and scolding. Zi Yi looked up and saw many people walking back from the corner of the street in front. Some looked angry and kept calling out loudly at the back. Some even picked up the stones and mud on the ground and waved their arms and smashed them hard.
Soon, more and more people came out of the corner of the street surrounded by something. Zi Yi first saw a team of Zi Chen soldiers in the middle of the crowd, pressing dozens of strong men with blue noses and swollen eyes by various things, and followed by a carriage of carriages tied with tarpaulins.
Seeing this, Zi Yi nodded suddenly. Needless to say, this must be a group of smuggling merchants who wanted to pass through the defense zone but were arrested.
Among the three legions, if it was the most severe attack on smuggling, it was undoubtedly Zichen Legion. Moreover, this order was under Zi Yi's own hands, and even mercilessly approved the execution of several senior officers who had collected black money. During those months, there was basically no free time in the gallows in the city.
However, judging from the current situation, it is obvious that for some people, high interests are more tempting than cold gallows.
To be continued...
