Volume 1 Chapter 332 Can I Fight?
If he tried his best, he could create ten five-clawed golden dragons like this in an instant!
"Great Yun is mighty! Emperor Yun is mighty!" Suddenly all the soldiers of the Fire Cloud Army shouted together, and they did not stop. No one shouted to stop. They just kept shouting, and it was obvious that they were all very excited.
Before long, Xiang Yun was also in a good mood because of the passion of the Fire Cloud Army. He loved these good men of the Dayun Empire from the bottom of his heart. They were brave and loyal, and not afraid of death. Which emperor would not like such an army?
So when Jiang Fei killed millions of his Fire Cloud Army soldiers, Xiang Yun really wanted to kill him!
To be honest, let alone friendship, as an emperor, he has done the most for Jiang Fei. If the Dayun Empire had no other trustworthy people in managing the imperial army, he would have killed the lawless Jiang Fei who disobeyed the imperial edict!
Thinking of this, Xiang Yun couldn't help but feel upset. Although the Jiang brothers were useful, they were too disobedient to be of any use...
Xiang Yun's mind moved, and the giant five-clawed golden dragon hovering in the sky seemed to have a spirit. It hovered in the mountains and forests beside the location of the million-strong army, supporting the ground with its five claws and its body crawling on the ground.
Xiang Yun waved his hand and shouted loudly: "All troops, ride on the five-clawed golden dragons and follow me to the battle!"
This order aroused the nerves of all the soldiers of the Fire Cloud Army. They became very excited and looked at the giant five-clawed golden dragon with fiery eyes.
The cheers were endless, making Xiang Yun feel a little embarrassed. With this attitude, Xiang Yun had no doubt that these people would go up and tear down his five-clawed golden dragon bit by bit.
The most excited one was Xuanyuan Dabing. He was the first to rush up. He jumped onto the back of the five-clawed golden dragon with a loud laugh. Then he lay on it and kept stroking it with both hands, wanting to feel the divine creature like the dragon.
The next moment, a large number of Fire Cloud Army rushed forward, occupying the back of the five-clawed golden dragon bit by bit.
With an army of one million plus countless baggage, the five-clawed golden dragon was no longer able to cope with the pressure, and the space it could stand on began to get smaller and smaller.
Xiang Yun, who was not far away, saw this scene and a smile appeared on his face involuntarily. In this world, he did not have enough knowledge and could not develop high-tech things like cars and airplanes. But now he had the ability to cultivate himself and could take off with a million troops. The speed was much faster than that of cars and airplanes!
In this way, the problem of war transportation is completely solved.
At this time, Qin Su, wearing a red battle armor, rode up to him and asked Xiang Yun in confusion, "Everyone is eager to ride the golden dragon, why don't you go?"
Qin Su dismounted upon hearing this, and in front of millions of soldiers, she slowly hugged Xiang Yun and said softly: "Your Majesty knows that I only care about Your Majesty in this life, and I don't care about the rest... Besides, if I want to ride, will Your Majesty not take me with you?"
Xiang Yun laughed out loud when he heard this: "You are so smart!"
"When we get to the battlefield, you don't have to participate. I'm afraid something might happen to you. Just stay on the Golden Dragon. I will protect you."
Qin Su said: "I am not a weak woman. Although my ability is not as good as your majesty's, I still have the ability to protect myself."
Xiang Yun nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that all the soldiers had climbed onto the back of the five-clawed golden dragon and stood firmly, it was time to set off.
Xiang Yun just held Qin Su in his arms and flew into the air, flew to the top of the five-clawed golden dragon and landed. He waved his dragon robe again, and the five-clawed golden dragon under his feet suddenly let out a dragon roar, and the next moment it flew up and rushed into the sky.
The Fire Cloud Army soldiers on the dragon's back could not stand and had difficulty maintaining their balance at high altitude, but this phenomenon only lasted for three breaths. The golden dragon energy around them automatically emerged and wrapped around their bodies, fixing them firmly on the dragon's back.
The golden dragon soared into the clouds, stepping on colorful things. It was the first time that everyone saw the scenery above the sky. It was vast and boundless, which directly opened the eyes of all the Fire Cloud Army soldiers and allowed them to see a wider world. The heights they could reach in their future growth would also increase.
Only half an hour later, the five-clawed golden dragon suddenly flew towards the ground and stopped one mile outside the city gate.
Then the five-clawed golden dragon disappeared, placing the million-strong Fire Cloud Army steadily on the ground.
At this moment, all the soldiers were full of fighting spirit. If they were allowed to attack cities and capture territories at this time, their combat effectiveness would definitely increase several times.
This is a kind of self-confidence, an incomparable and powerful self-confidence!
This kind of self-confidence and self-reliance can only appear when following the emperor Xiang Yun to fight. Other generals, even the Jiang brothers, cannot give all the soldiers this feeling.
This is also one of the reasons why the soldiers of the Huoyun Army have great respect for Xiang Yun.
The soldiers were excited and about to riot. Jiang Yue, who was anxious that the situation would get out of control, could not help but quickly run over and ask, "Your Majesty, do you want to order an attack on the city?"
Xiang Yun didn't even look at him. He just looked up at the city gate a mile away and said calmly, "Ahead is the border of the White Mist Country to resist the Great Yun Empire. It's called Dongqi Pass. There are 800,000 defenders inside the pass. If we force an attack, at least 100,000 soldiers will be killed or injured. Do you think we can fight with such losses?"
"This..." Jiang Yue didn't know how to answer Xiang Yun. If they sent troops, they would of course have to fight a war, and there would always be casualties in a war. But since the emperor asked this, then the answer of attacking must be wrong.
Jiang Yue thought for a moment and replied, "Your Majesty, since ancient times, the defenders have always had the upper hand. If we rashly start a war, it will certainly be disadvantageous to us. I think that to break through this pass, we cannot attack by force, but should use siege!"
Jiang Yue explained seriously: "Besiege but do not attack, go around the rear, cut off the food and grass supply of Dongqi Pass, and then send soldiers with high cultivation to fly into the sky to observe the terrain and the distribution of troops in Dongqi Pass. Finally, bombard the enemy with the Sun Cannon all day long, ten guns in a group, and each group has an interval of five to ten minutes. This is enough to cause considerable damage to the enemy in Dongqi Pass and huge psychological pressure. Our army will then persuade them to surrender under the city.
In this way, the enemy troops at Dongqi Pass will be demoralized and exhausted, with only one tenth of their fighting capacity left. In the worst case, they will mutini and surrender. In this way, we can capture Dongqi Pass without losing a single soldier!"
Xiang Yun was surprised after hearing this. He obviously didn't expect Jiang Yue to say this. After thinking for a while, he asked, "If Dongqi Pass doesn't surrender in three days, you will waste more than half of the 30,000 shells you brought. How can you fight the rest of the war?"
Wang Shu said quickly: "Your Majesty, I have always believed that the lives of the Fire Cloud Army soldiers are far more important than the shells. Once the shells are used up, as long as the supply line is not broken, they can be continuously transported from the Dayun Empire. But if the lives of the soldiers are lost, then they are really gone."
At this moment, Xiang Yun finally showed a little smile on his face. He pointed at Jiang Yue and shook his head slightly and said, "If your brother Jiang Fei could have the same idea as you, I would feel much better!"
Jiang Yue felt ashamed and even wiped the sweat off his forehead. He came up with this statement on the spur of the moment, analyzing Xiang Yun's thoughts and guessing it.
Fortunately, he was right. If he had planned to attack at the cost of the lives of the Fire Cloud Army soldiers, he would have at least been scolded if not killed.
