The sky was getting light.
In Liangshui County, flames shot up into the sky, and in the flames were thousands of charred corpses.
The air was filled with a burning smell, and there was dead silence under the low city wall of Liangshui County.
"Report, over a hundred civilians have been found hiding in the city, and no one is left alive in the county magistrate's office."
"The food has been distributed to the surviving people, and I have sent scouts to investigate the surrounding situation."
Linghu Chongshan reported very seriously.
"Our army suffered a total of sixty-five casualties, none of whom died, eleven of whom were seriously injured. The rest can continue to accompany the army."
Wang Dingliu stared at Chen Buyi fiercely. Most of these people were injured by stray arrows when the shield formation was opened. If Chen Buyi had not suddenly appeared, so many people would not have been injured.
"It's all his fault."
Liu Feng raised his hand and signaled Wang Dingliu to stop talking.
At this moment, Chen Buyi's face was pale. He had no idea of the seriousness of the matter last night.
He knew it when he started collecting the bodies.
He also changed and became silent.
After a long time, he spoke slowly.
"Of the people I brought out, less than fifty survived."
These forty-plus people were able to survive thanks to the shield formation.
Otherwise they will all be killed.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault."
Chen Buyi's lips trembled slightly. When he reported the number, he fell to the ground like a deflated ball, covering his face and crying.
At this moment, all his past military achievements and his experience in the Imperial Guards were completely shattered.
After this battle, Chen Buyi understood that he was just a warrior after all. No matter how powerful he was, his personal bravery could not influence the outcome of the battle.
War and individual are two different concepts.
Liu Feng was the one who planned and strategized. He used a thousand men as a base and divided his troops into three groups, leaving the enemy, which was twice his number, helpless and finally annihilated them all.
But what about him?
He came with 200 men in a threatening manner, but was beaten and fled in panic as soon as they came into contact. Compared with Liu Feng, he was a joke. He was the executioner who killed these bloody men.
"Okay, now that things have come to this, just don't act on impulse in the future."
"You take the rest of the people and be on guard."
"The main force will rest and eat, and will set off after noon."
Liu Feng gave the next task with a cold face.
"etc……."
Chen Buyi suddenly stood up and wiped away his tears.
"Can you take me with you in the future? Even if it's just as a small soldier, I'm willing to fight bravely."
"These 150+ brothers lost their lives because of me."
"They followed me out."
"I know I'm not cut out to lead troops in battle, but I want to avenge them."
"I have to kill enough of them."
"Brother Liu, please take me with you."
"I want to kill the enemy."
"Master Liu..."
Liu Feng's eyes were still terrifyingly cold. He looked at Chen Buyi with a determined gaze, and then at the others.
"What's the point of you begging me?"
"Leading troops to fight is everyone's job. I'm just a leader. They have to do the specific work."
"How about this, who among you is willing to take him with you?"
Since he was willing to lower his status and become a soldier, and his fighting ability was not bad, he would definitely not refuse.
When he went to the county government office to collect the reward, he felt that Chen Buyi could be recruited in the future.
What's more, he had helped me in the lobby of the county government office that day.
Chen Buyi is so reckless now. Liu Feng will not give him the opportunity to lead the team before he grows up completely.
Chen Buyi looked at everyone's reluctant expressions, knelt down with a thud, and scanned the crowd with eager eyes.
The two Linghu brothers both shook their heads.
Liu Lang and Zhai Shanchuan despised him even more.
"Brother Wang, please accept me."
Chen Buzhi's defense was completely broken.
He was a man who once fought bravely on the battlefield, but now he is groveling here and begging for shelter from a bandit.
But among these leading generals, Wang Dingliu was his last hope.
Although Wang Dingliu also disliked Chen Buzhi, it was because Liu Feng's military orders were strict.
But seeing how eager Chen Buyi was, he couldn't bear it. He was softer-hearted than others and just sighed.
"Since you are a man, I will keep you."
"From now on, you will follow me into battle. If you are afraid of death or disobey orders, I will not be polite. In the Tiger Roar Army, there is no Mr. Chen from the county government."
"Do you understand?"
Liu Feng nodded silently. He knew that in the end it would be Wang Dingliu who would accept him.
His subordinates, the two Linghu brothers, came from Fengling Army and were from a family of military generals. What they looked down upon most were people like Chen Buyi who were full of passion and ambition.
Liu Lang didn't understand these things, so he just listened to Liu Feng. Although Zhai Shanchuan didn't have great wisdom, he was upright in character, so he would not give Chen Buyi a good face.
"Okay, let's all go and rest."
Liu Feng waved his hand.
After everyone rested for two hours, the scouts brought news.
According to the scouts' intelligence, the northern barbarians sent out three troops to plunder everywhere this time.
They went in different directions.
It revolves around the entire Tianyong City.
The one that raided to the rear is already dead, and the others are in the left and right directions.
But Liu Feng knew that the northern barbarians' goal was food and supplies, and the other two groups must have taken the food and supplies back with them at this moment.
Based on the scale, the food they looted this time could sustain the army for three to five days.
"The Northern Barbarians have an army of 50,000 men, and there isn't much food in the camp. They should be attacking the city soon."
