Looking at the majestic city in front of him, Hai Long spread out the map and said, "This is Rongyang City. From here, you can go northeast to seven or eight cities and you will reach the border between Yuan, Mongolia and Zhao and Song. How is the battle ahead?" These days they traveled all the way, taking all the desolate paths for the sake of peace, so that they didn't know much about the war.
Tian Qin smiled and said: "What? Look at you, you really want to help Zhao Songguo fight against the enemy! Don't forget who you are now. Once other orthodox sects know about your involvement in the mortal world, I'm afraid it will be against even Yunzong's reputation is not good."
Hai Long snorted coldly and said, "Who cares about them. Let them do what they want. I only do what I want to do. So what about righteousness? There are no good things either. Let them come if they want to."
Tian Qin said: "Long, no matter what you decide, I will support you. In fact, I like your stubborn temper very much. However, don't be careless, and try not to do anything unless necessary. You understand me mean."
Hai Long smiled and said, "Don't worry, your husband and I are the smartest people in the world."
Tian Qin spat softly and said, "Who are you husband? They haven't agreed to marry you yet."
Hai Long laughed and said: "Anyway, it will be sooner or later. It's okay to scream first, come on, Tian Qin, let me hug you."
Tian Qin's tender body turned slightly, avoided Hai Long's sneak attack, chuckled, and ran to Rongyang City first, Hai Long followed closely. Neither of them used any Taoism, just like ordinary people, chasing in front of Rongyang City. Rongyang City is one of the important towns of the Zhao Song Kingdom. The city wall is about 20 meters high, and there are high mountains on the left and right sides. It is a dangerous place for military strategists. It is also the last solid barrier. The giant artillery that Hai Long was familiar with did not appear on this big city. In his mind, the artillery should be on the other side of the city.
The guards at the city gate were extremely strict, when Hai Long and Tian Qin came here, they were immediately stopped by soldiers. Each of these soldiers has a resolute face, wearing light blue armor, a dark blue cloak on their backs, and a dragon with teeth and claws carved on their chests.
Hai Long took a step forward and said with a smile: "Hello, military lords, we passed by this Rongyang City and want to go in to have a rest. Please make it convenient for you."
The leader of the soldiers put his hand on the long sword at his waist, and said in a deep voice: "Now the battle is tense ahead, Rongyang City is now used to garrison the army, and no one else is allowed to enter."
Hai Long was stunned, and said: "But, we want to look ahead! How can we do it without passing through here." He took out a silver ingot from his pocket and handed it over, saying: "Master Jun, please accept it, please make it easy."
The leader of the soldier snorted coldly, slapped the silver taels handed over by Hai Long with his palm, and said in a deep voice: "What is the crime of bribing a sergeant? I think you must be spies from the Yuanmeng Kingdom. You are planning to do something wrong. Come here and arrest them." Get up and put him in a prison to wait."
Hai Long was startled, and thought to himself, the soldiers guarding the gate are of good quality! Hastily pulled Tianqin back a few steps, said: "Don't do anything, speak clearly. Why do you think we are spies?"
The leader of the soldiers looked at Hai Long coldly, and said: "You are behaving strangely, and now the war is about to spread to Rongyang City, now I will give you two choices, one is to retreat as soon as possible, and the other is to be imprisoned. Rongyang City It is related to the safety of our Zhao Song Kingdom, and there must be no mistakes."
Hai Long frowned and said: "There should be seven or eight big cities ahead. Could it be that they are all lost? Are those cannons for nothing?"
Hearing Hai Long mentioning the cannon, the leader of the soldiers immediately became tense and raised his hand. Dozens of soldiers in blue armor who were in charge of guarding the city gate quickly surrounded Hai Long and Tian Qin. Hai Long surrounded them. The leader of the soldiers said: "I have chosen for you now, arrest me and send me back to the military headquarters for interrogation." All the soldiers did not make a promise, and ten of them rushed towards Hai Long and Tian Qin first, although their long swords were all pointed at nothing. , but blocked all their escape routes.
The humility on Hai Long's face disappeared, he nodded, and said, "That's right, only soldiers like you can be called the elite. Whoever is in charge of guarding this city now, ask him to come see me."
The leader of the soldiers trembled in his heart, and the aura exuded from Hai Long's body completely shocked him and all the soldiers. He was as towering as a mountain, as if he was unshakable. The leader of the soldiers took a deep breath, calmed down the uneasiness in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Who is your Excellency? What is the purpose of coming to Rongyang City?"
Hai Long smiled slightly, and said, "I'm a worshiper. I'm here to supervise the battle."
Hearing the words "Worship Hall", the soldiers immediately showed respectful eyes, but the leader of the soldiers did not let Hai Long go immediately, stretched out his right hand, and said, "Please show your token."
Hai Long knew that if he didn't reveal his identity, these soldiers probably wouldn't let him in, so he shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: "My token is my name, and my name is Hai Long."
The leader of the soldier showed a look of horror, stepped back one after another, looked at Hai Long suspiciously, and said with a trembling voice: "You are standing side by side with your Highness, this, this..."
Hai Long continued to entangle lazily, and scolded with a smile: "What is this? Could it be that there are still people who would pretend to be me. I heard that Yuan Mengguo launched an invasion war against our country, so I came to see it. The person in charge of guarding here is Who?" While speaking, Hai Long stretched out his right palm, and in a flash in the air, a purple dragon aura floated out, circled around his body and returned to his right palm. The extremely powerful breath deterred all the soldiers back five steps at the same time. Looking at the hesitant leader of the soldiers, Hai Long said: "With my cultivation base, if I want to force my way in, can you stop me?"
The leader of the soldiers shook his whole body, and suddenly, he and all the soldiers knelt down on the ground, excitedly saying: "See Your Royal Highness Marshal."
Hai Long froze, scratched his head, and said, "When did I become a marshal again? Get up and answer."
"Yes." The leader of the soldiers got up and said respectfully: "Your Highness, we are the first elite army of the Zhao Song Kingdom under the supervision of His Majesty, with the designation Hailong. You are our army leader and the first marshal of the Zhao Song Kingdom."
Hai Long took a look at Tian Qin, and couldn't help laughing: "That boy Zhao Ji made it again. What's the use of giving me the title of marshal, I won't stay in Zhao Song forever."
The soldier leader's eyes shone with admiration, and he said respectfully: "This is the position specially reserved for you by His Majesty out of respect for you. Our Sea Dragon Legion is the most elite legion in Zhao Song Kingdom, with a total of 100,000 people. Now they are all stationed in Rongyang City, under the command of the deputy commander, General Zhao Fengshang."
Hai Long was taken aback, and said: "General Zhao Feng, isn't he guarding the southern border? Why did he come here?"
The leader of the soldiers said: "This is a military secret, and it's not something that small people can know. The Sea Dragon Legion was established more than three years ago. Since its establishment, it has always been led by General Zhao Fengshang. We all started from It was drawn from various legions across the country, and after unified training, it is the only legion in the country where all soldiers have armor. This time, our goal is to completely stop the invasion of the Yuanmeng Kingdom in Rongyang City."
Hai Long nodded and said, "Okay, take me to see Zhao Feng." Unexplainably becoming the First Marshal of Zhao Song Kingdom, and owning an elite army named after him, Hai Long couldn't help feeling a little vanity It was as if he was already a marshal in command of the war at this time.
Under the leadership of the soldier leader, Hai Long and Tian Qin entered Rongyang City. Indeed, as the soldier leader said, there were almost no civilians in the entire Rongyang City, and soldiers were everywhere. Part of it is the Sea Dragon Legion wearing light blue armor. The leader of the soldiers explained that in Rongyang City, there are now a total of 200,000 troops. Except for the Sea Dragon Corps, the other 100,000 troops are responsible for supplies and transportation, and they are completely served by the Sea Dragon Corps. It can be seen that Zhao Songguo treats this elite Legion's attention.
The military headquarters was originally located in the city lord's mansion of Rongyang City, Hai Long and Tian Qin were waiting outside the door, and the soldier leader rushed in to report.
Tian Qin smiled and said: "Long, it seems that you really have some status in Zhao Song Kingdom! You are more powerful than I imagined."
Hai Long puffed out his chest and said proudly, "Of course. Although I rarely stay in Zhao Song Kingdom, with my fame back then, I should be a well-known big shot."
Tian Qin tapped him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be too proud. The Yuan Meng Kingdom is almost here. I'm afraid that if you don't make a move, the Zhao Song Kingdom will disappear."
Hai Long was just about to say something, but he saw Zhao Feng in military uniform strode out under the guard of a group of soldiers. He saw Hai Long at a glance, hurried forward a few steps, and fell to his knees with a plop, surprised He added: "See Your Highness."
Hai Long waved his hand, lifted him from the ground, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you in a few years, how is General Zhao?"
Zhao Feng smiled and said: "Okay, very good. Your Highness, please come inside." Under the surprised gaze of many guards, he personally led Hai Long to the lobby of the military headquarters. At this time, there were still dozens of soldiers of different ranks standing in the lobby. They were all wearing blue armor, but the patterns on their chests were different. Like Zhao Feng, the dragon on his chest is golden with four claws, while others are mostly silver, red and so on.
After Zhao Feng led Hai Long to the main seat, he said loudly: "Everyone, I have an important happy event to announce. His Royal Highness has come to help us."
These people present are all well-known generals of Zhao Songguo who have been killed for a long time. I just saw Zhao Feng ran out in a hurry after whispering a few words to a soldier. They didn't know what happened. Looking at Hai Long in amazement, each of them showed surprise eyes.
Zhao Feng shouted: "What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and pay your respects to His Highness."
Only then did the generals come to their senses, and they knelt down on the ground one after another, bowing to Hai Long as a respectful salute to the emperor.
Hai Long smiled slightly, clasped his hands lightly, and said: "Generals, you are welcome. I am here this time just to see how the battle is going." Everyone felt a peaceful air supporting their bodies, and when the air flow disappeared , I have stood up straight. Surprised, he couldn't help but deepen his respect for Hai Long.
Hai Long turned to Zhao Feng and asked, "General Zhao, how is the situation on the front line now? Where is the Yuan Meng army?"
Zhao Feng's eyes flashed coldly, and he said: "Your Highness, your original judgment is completely correct. Those barbarians from Yuanmeng Kingdom Jingping have indeed been plotting these years. This time, they attacked Li Tangguo and our Zhaosongguo in two ways. Obviously it was premeditated. The preparations were extremely well prepared. Under the circumstances of being caught off guard and their despicable sneak attacks, several important towns with artillery on the outermost periphery have already fallen. In order to reduce losses, I ordered all troops to withdraw to the vicinity of Rongyang City and stand by. The people of the eight cities on the front line have all been evacuated to the rear, temporarily abandoning the eight cities with little defense. We are going to fight to the death with the Yuan Mongolian army in Rongyang City."
Hai Long frowned, and said: "General Zhao, your arrangement is indeed very good, but there is one thing I don't understand. With the power of artillery, even if the enemy sneak attack, it will not be so easy to break through the city. Could it be that the guards on the frontier are so lax Is it?"
Zhao Feng sighed, and said: "The frontier is heavily guarded, and the enemy was discovered immediately. The artillery was fully fired. However, Yuanmeng Kingdom brought us a very surprising method of attacking the city. They even used cavalry Siege, and all kinds of siege equipment are extremely sophisticated, all pulled by horses, our artillery only fired three shots, although they caused some losses, but they were still attacked under the city. Within the range of the artillery's power , we can only fight with them, but those barbarians are really fierce. In the case of superior numbers, the defenders of our country are retreating steadily. At the same time, their spies invaded the city long ago, and they set fire everywhere at the beginning of the war , made people panic. Under the influence of internal and external troubles, our army was defeated. After hearing the news, His Majesty immediately ordered me to lead the Sea Dragon Legion to support. But at that time, the enemy's momentum was extremely strong. Weakness again, exhaustion three times, the other exhausts and we overcome it. In order to avoid the opponent's Fengrui, I chose Rongyang City as the place for the decisive battle. We must not take a step back here. I am confident that I will be able to The elite of the Yuan Meng Kingdom were completely defeated here."
Hai Long nodded and said: "I hope everything will be as you said. Zhao Feng, the strength of one person can't play a decisive role on the battlefield, and it's better for people like me not to directly participate in the war. Therefore, I hope you can lead the Sea Dragon Legion to defeat the opponent in a direct battle, only in this way can Zhao Song Kingdom truly become stronger. It is not in vain that Zhao Ji named this legion after me."
