Chapter 135: Broken halberds and buried bones·IV

When Xiao Hao brought Shi Zhixuan back to Wushengguancheng, the Song soldiers who stayed behind were looking nervously and expectantly in the direction he left. When they saw him and the extra figure behind him, the worries in their eyes disappeared immediately, and they surrounded him and said:

"Brother... General! You are finally back!"

Xiao Hao was slightly stunned when he heard the name, but he was soon relieved. The emperor is far away, so they can call him whatever they want.

In the army, the binding force of the word general and the word brother is very different.

He introduced them, "This is my lifelong friend, a man of great talent, proficient in both civil and military affairs, his surname is Shi, and his name is Zhixuan. With his full support, our chances of winning are much greater."

Shi Zhixuan nodded at them. He looked older than Xiao Hao, and his temperament was calm and elegant. Although he had a young face, his temples were a little gray, making it difficult to judge his age.

The eyes of the Song soldiers widened a little. They noticed that Xiao Hao said the word "win" instead of "survive" and couldn't help asking: "The general said before that he would bring back a big gift. Could it be..."

Xiao Hao smiled faintly and said: "It's getting late. Everyone hasn't eaten yet. Let's fill our stomachs first, and then we can talk in detail."

Everyone looked at each other. The newly elected Song soldier in charge of logistics said with a bitter face: "General, the person in front of you... not only did he not leave any food when he left, he even smashed the stove. We..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Hao starting to take things out of the big package behind him, bottles, jars, cups, and cups. Soon, two large banquet tables were set up with wine and meat, which looked extremely exquisite.

These soldiers who had been fighting outside for many years had never seen a banquet of this level. Their eyes were wide open and they could hear the sound of swallowing saliva.

Xiao Hao arranged the Lotus Out of Water Banquet in an orderly manner, stepped aside and said to them: "This is the first gift, and also my test question. I want to build an invincible team, but I don't want any losers in this team. I will give you a quarter of an hour, eat as fast as you can!"

The more than 200 people paused for a moment, and immediately rushed up, wolfing down the food. This banquet was probably no less delicious than the emperor's kitchen. They were lucky to have a chance to taste it once in their lifetime, but it was a pity that the general did not let them savor it slowly. It was a waste to eat so much.

When Xiao Hao was setting up the banquet, he had secretly mixed crushed Na Yuan Dan and Xuan Jiu Wan into it. The Hibiscus Out of Water Banquet can provide bonuses to the attributes that benefit the most at the moment. By observing the buffs added to these Song soldiers, he had secretly divided them into teams according to internal and external skills and logistical support. The Na Yuan Dan can increase their cultivation, and it can also allow him to roughly glimpse the upper limit of these people's cultivation.

This group of Song soldiers actually has a good foundation. Compared with those young ladies in Yiying Building many years ago, they have more potential.

A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Hao cleared his cough and immediately called a halt.

The Song soldiers reluctantly left the table. Some of them still had their mouths full, and they lined up in front of Xiao Hao in an orderly manner with their cheeks puffed up.

Xiao Hao looked at them one by one, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad."

He took the roster of the remaining people from the Song soldier who was in charge of clerks before, and asked them to line up one by one and re-group according to the buffs he saw.

There were no uncommon characters in the names of these Song soldiers, so Xiao Hao didn't make any mistakes when reading them, but when he continued to read two familiar characters, a subtle feeling arose.

"Xiao Hao——"

"Yes!", "Yes!", "Here!", "Yes!", "Here!"

The five Song soldiers responded in unison.

Xiao Hao: "..."

Is his name so ordinary? There are only 217 people including him, and there are five people with the same name as him? What the hell is this world? ?

Xiao Hao's face was slightly stiff, and he said with a serious face: "You should line up according to your age, one, two, three, four, and five, so as to avoid confusion later."

The five people nodded in agreement.

Xiao Hao continued to divide them into teams. The moon was already rising in the east. He lit a bonfire, asked them to sit around it, and began to teach them the method of renouncing the old and absorbing the new to cultivate internal strength and some practical moves.

This is the second gift. Xuan Jiu Wan can increase the speed of gaining experience or experience within a certain period of time. With the blessing of Xuan Jiu Wan, these uneducated warriors can receive high-level martial arts with half the effort.

Xiao Hao could not teach them the skills of Jian San, and Na Yuan Dan could only simply fill in the cultivation level. There would always be bottlenecks, but internal strength and external kung fu could indeed benefit them greatly.

He had previously collected the Nine Yin Manual in the system, and there were many martial arts in it that could quickly show results. He took advantage of the effect of the Xuan Jiu Pills to teach them bit by bit.

Although he didn't know which world this was, he used the Nine Yin Manual to train soldiers in order to improve the overall martial arts value. These soldiers didn't know what they were learning, so there shouldn't be any mistakes.

If the martial arts masters here were all at the same level as those in the Tang Dynasty, it would be hard to say, and he could only admit defeat.

These ordinary Song soldiers were surprised to find that the things Xiao Hao taught them were obviously difficult for them to understand. But maybe it was because they were full of wine and food tonight, and they were in a particularly cheerful mood, plus there was always an impulse in their bodies that they felt that they were full of energy, they learned these obscure things unusually quickly.

Shi Zhixuan was also listening to Xiao Hao teaching them the Nine Yin Manual. His understanding and knowledge far exceeded these Song soldiers. He was able to learn advanced martial arts by analogy, and this time he made great progress.

Maybe there were too many people here, and it was inconvenient for him to understand it on his own. Shi Zhixuan left quietly without attracting anyone's attention.

Xiao Hao knew that even if it was a cram-learning education, they would have to be given time to digest and absorb, so he didn't force them all at once. Seeing that the night was getting darker, he ordered them to go back and practice well, and he went to the city wall to stand guard himself.

The Mongolian army could come at any time. Although Wusheng Pass was easy to defend but difficult to attack, it would not last long if the military strength was too disparate. Before the reinforcements arrived, he had to find a way to delay time so that the more than 200 men under his command had a chance to train.

He had the power to attack the city, but he had no army to defend it. This was really a headache.

In the dead of night, there was only the sound of firewood chopping on the city wall in the wind, and Xiao Hao felt an inexplicable chill. When everything was silent, the scene of rolling in the sea of ​​blood and swords during the day came to his mind.

He could no longer numb himself with the doctrine of doing good and eliminating evil.

When two armies fight, there is no distinction between good and evil, only a fight between nations to the death.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he could almost feel the burning temperature of blood splashing on his face again. Xiao Hao didn't dare to think about it anymore. He opened his eyes in a hurry, spread out a table on the city wall, and forced himself to think about how to apply Cang Yun's martial arts to actual combat.

When the sky was about to dawn, he seemed to have a feeling. He saw the sun rising in the gaps between the vast mountains in the distance, and then he realized that a night had passed.

A black shadow appeared on the horizon in the distance. Xiao Hao squinted his eyes, saw the man's appearance clearly, and doubted in his heart.

When did Shi Zhixuan run out of the city?

But in a flash, he had climbed onto the city wall. He could tell at a glance that Xiao Hao had not slept all night and shook his head disapprovingly, "Ah Hao, you are working too hard."

Xiao Hao looked serious, with a frown on his face, "When I think about the fact that our number is less than a fraction of the Mongolian army, once they attack, the brothers in the city won't be able to master the skills yet, and I'm afraid they will be in danger of death."

Shi Zhixuan smiled with his hands behind his back, "Ah Hao, just focus on training the soldiers for the next half month."

Xiao Hao had another question mark. Did Shi Zhixuan have any plan? His eyes lit up, and he asked, "Why do you say that, Zhixuan?"

Shi Zhixuan said, "I went to check out their military tent last night. The guards are tight and there is no loophole for us to break in. But..." He paused and smiled, "Although I failed to take the head of their marshal directly, I'm afraid he doesn't have the energy to send troops to attack within half a month."

Xiao Hao stood up in shock. The total number of Mongolian troops stationed was as high as 200,000. Even if Shi Zhixuan had the highest martial arts skills, it would be too risky for him to enter the enemy camp alone! No matter how

high a person's martial arts skills are, even if he is a god, he can't escape in front of 200,000 enemies!

Xiao Hao opened his mouth and suddenly began to regret dragging Shi Zhixuan into his mess. I never thought that this world would be like this. If I had known this, I would have left Shi Zhixuan behind when I was in Mingjiao.

He rebuked in a deep voice: "Zhixuan is too chaotic!"

Shi Zhixuan remained calm and thick-skinned: "The military advisor should share the worries of the commander-in-chief. Isn't the general worried that he doesn't have time to recuperate?"

"..." Xiao Hao couldn't utter a word for a long time. His mood was ups and downs. He couldn't tell whether he was more worried or more ecstatic.

How could this military advisor who recommended himself and took himself seriously... be so shameless that people couldn't say a word to him!

Such a simple and crude way of blocking the enemy... only Shi Zhixuan could do it.

He sighed deeply and compromised, "It is my job to charge and break into the formation. Don't compete with me."

Shi Zhixuan knew that he was worried about his own safety, so he nodded and said, "It will not happen again."

Xiao Hao glanced at him and knew that this guy did not really take the warning of not taking risks alone to heart. Anyway, the time Shi Zhixuan bought was precious, and he must not waste it.

He cleaned up the table and started to call the Song soldiers for morning exercises.

In just a few days, the average level of these more than 200 people rose from level 30 to level 50. Even in the martial arts world, they can be called second-rate masters. Xiao Hao knew the so-called tricks of military training very well, and it only took him a few hours to make them obedient.

The Song soldiers became more confident and felt that following Xiao Hao was the right choice.

Once these soldiers got to know each other well, they could make any joke. When they heard that Shi Zhixuan had severely damaged the commander of the Mongolian army overnight, they all raised their thumbs and said, "We thought the general was already a great general, but we didn't expect that the military advisor was also a great demon god..."

Xiao Hao couldn't help laughing at the word "demon god", thinking that you don't know that your military advisor is the evil king who once changed the situation and disturbed the government.

He said seriously, "Now that we have achieved initial results, our team should also have an official name."

Everyone immediately put on a serious look and waited in a serious manner. There was no trace of those soft bones and soldiers a few days ago.

Xiao Hao said in a clear voice: "We are all brothers and sisters in arms, and we must protect each other to death! Anyone who betrays the country, betrays faith, is unjust, and harms the people for selfish desires will be the target of our sharp blades! Things that go against our army's creed will only be judged as right and wrong, and there will be no room for them! Our army's actions are not for the opening of the sky, the thunder, or the frost!"
