Zhang Yang and the old man looked at each other for a few seconds, then stopped bragging, not even a word, because that would be counterproductive.
At this moment, the old man has used his half-life military reputation to make a promise, so it is up to him to use actions to tell the old man and everyone that they will definitely survive.
"Brother, do me a favor and ask my sisters and sisters-in-law to come down as much as possible if they can walk. The carts will be used to pull the baggage."
Zhang Yang put his arms around the guy who was the same age as himself, oh, his name was Qiao Shuzhi.
But before Uncle Qiao could nod, the old man had already given the order, "Everyone should come down and walk. The military order only requires us to arrive before midnight. There are still five hours left, which is enough."
"Thank you uncle! But let's keep a big car."
Zhang Yang was overjoyed. The old man didn't cooperate at all before and said he had to walk until noon tomorrow. But now that he has said so, he will definitely be able to walk to the Bald Ridge Fortress before midnight.
He immediately ran out of Chidao. It was still more than fifty miles away from the front line, so there were still some sparse trees on both sides of the road.
He chopped down the trees with his knife, cutting off the branches. At the same time, the soul force field quickly enveloped them, and within a few minutes, he used the method of warming to drain out the water inside.
No one interfered in this process. The fifty cavalry responsible for escorting and monitoring just watched indifferently, including the military judge with a dead face.
Because Zhang Yang is the commander of the Death Soldier Battalion, as long as he doesn't run away, no one will care if he does something ridiculous. However, if he wants to go back and go to the baggage manager for crossbow arrows, then the military judge can directly order him to be charged with desertion. Kill Zhang Yang.
To be honest, this is also a test that the old man gave Zhang Yang. If you can't even do this, why are you bragging
But Zhang Yang had a good idea in mind and was very busy. He cut each tree trunk into two-meter sections and placed them closely on the cart.
Four carts can really pull a lot, especially since the water in the trees has been drained away, and the weight has been reduced by almost 10%.
But no matter how you look at it, these pieces of wood cannot be connected with the five thousand crossbow arrows.
No one questioned, they just walked silently. Anyway, no matter what, the whole family would be dead. It felt like a deja vu.
In this way, Zhang Yang was busy for an hour before he filled four large carts with the wood sections that had been drained of moisture. Because there were too few trees nearby, he could not leave the field of vision of the military judge, otherwise he would be a deserter.
"Dong Cheng, if your clever plan is limited to this, I swear you will die miserably!"
Uncle Qiao came over and said angrily in a lowered voice. He still didn't believe that Zhang Yang could do it. No one believed what he said, including the old man and the military judge with a dead face.
Do you really think this is children's play house
But Zhang Yang didn't want to say a word at this moment. He smiled mysteriously, jumped into a big car, and closed his eyes to rest. This scene immediately made Qiao Shuzhi and others even more angry, but the old man didn't say anything, so they could only watch. With.
"I want to check the value of that demon soul."
As Zhang Yang's thoughts changed, a golden scale appeared, with the demon soul on one end and 1,500 points of energy on the other.
The following is the function of the demon soul, which can be used to cultivate elite-level and captain-level soldiers.
This situation did not surprise him.
"If a complete captain-level monster soul is sold, it will cost about 1,500 to 2,000 energy points. In other words, the monsters in the fantasy world and the magic soldiers in this extraordinary trial have the same combat power standard, both based on 1 -Level 5 is ordinary, level 6-14 is elite, level 15-24 is captain, and level 25 and above is hero/big demon."
"The old man just said that his son-in-law and son are all ten enemies. That should be equivalent to the captain level. After all, their family is a general. They have been physically strong since they were young and have been in battle for many years. They should represent the highest level of combat effectiveness in the Wei Dynasty. Upstream.”
"Of course, there may also be hundreds of enemies, that is, at the level of hero/big demon, but I have too little information in this regard to make a judgment easily."
While Zhang Yang was thinking, he placed 100 units of demon blood on the golden scale. This thing cannot be sold and has only one use, which is to consume energy to purify the magic power in the demon blood, which is similar to demon blood.
"Whether to purify magic power from demon blood, each unit requires 100 points of energy."
"Whether to purify mana from magic power, each unit requires 1,000 energy points."
If it weren't for the impending war and Zhang Yang needed to ensure the peak of his mental strength at all times, he wouldn't have used this method. The price would really make people bankrupt.
"Yes, sure."
"Deduct 10,000 points of energy, and you gain 10 units of magic power."
"Deduct 10,000 points of energy and you get one unit of mana."
Seeing this result, Zhang Yang could only endure it. The price-performance ratio of this purification was not an ordinary pitfall. If he purified it himself, he could purify at least three to five units of mana, but it would take about a day or two.
"Forget it, one unit is enough."
Zhang Yang casually took out nine armor-breaking cones, used the soul force field as the guide and the magic power as the support, and quietly and quietly created nine high-grade magic weapons.
He was already familiar with this kind of thing, but what he lacked was the magic power.
Two hours later, the front line was already in sight. Countless torches illuminated the fortresses like daylight. Looking from a distance, it looked like the stars were hanging upside down.
But to Zhang Yang, this scene is like countless fires, so many fireballs, so many burnings!
He had to control his desire to rub fireballs. After all, he was destined to create a great dynasty. He didn't want later generations of historians to call their founding emperor - the Great Magister Dong Cheng!
Of course, another reason is that he doesn't want his competitors to know his secret cards too early.
What if there are several Qianlong opponents on the battlefield at this moment? The ultimate move should be reserved for the official start in three days!
The Bald Ridge Fortress cannot be seen. The position of the mirage demon soldiers is completely dark. They have been fighting a thousand years of war with the Wei Dynasty. These foreign military strategies are not bad at all.
"All eighty-seven people below the commander of the Death Soldier Battalion, Dong Cheng, have arrived on time. General, please give me your instructions!"
In the swaying light of the fire, Zhang Yang shouted to a huge fortress wall, which was the nearest and most important fortress to Bald Ridge Fortress - Black Rock Fortress.
If Black Rock Fortress is compared to a father, then the twenty-seven small fortresses surrounding Black Rock Fortress are sons.
As for the Bald Ridge Fortress, it is just a rag for the godson's godson. He can't even be considered as the godson's position, so he can use it and throw it away.
Soon, an energetic voice came from the city wall.
"The general has ordered that the dead soldier battalion be stationed outside the city. At dawn, they will be arrayed in front, and they will seize the Bald Ridge Fortress first. There must be no mistake."
"Dong Chengyuan, the commander of the Dead Soldiers' Battalion, issued a military order to seize the Bald Ridge Fortress with a stick of incense. He only requested that the women and children of the Dead Soldiers' Battalion stay behind to hold down the battle!"
Zhang Yang shouted again, every one of the eighty-six old and young in the dead soldier camp is precious, so he must try his best to ensure that they will not be injured or killed. In the fierce battle tomorrow morning, women and children will die if they go up, so he hopes to keep them behind.
After a while, the energetic voice sounded again,
"The general asked, Dong Cheng, do you dare to disobey the order?"
"The general will not dare."
Disobeying an order means beheading, and there is no room for accommodation when given a military order.
Zhang Yang raised his head, looked at the dark city wall and the starry night sky, and remained silent for a long time. If he was really Dong Cheng, he would probably want to rebel now.
Turning around, everyone in the Qiao family stood there in silence. Zhang Yang wanted to say something, but in the end he could only give a simple order.
"Camp where we are and capture Bald Ridge early tomorrow morning!"
"That's good, we didn't let us launch an attack immediately." The old man suddenly laughed, "I guess there is a noble person who wants to see our whole family die with his own eyes."
Zhang Yang said nothing.
The old man continued to laugh, "I thought you were going to bet with me again right away. Although I don't know where you got the confidence from, my dear nephew, old man, I actually recognized a goddaughter—"
—
The sky was dimming, and all members of the Death Soldier Battalion were already in formation.
There were five carts in the middle, and all the women and children were following behind them. On the outside were ten old men holding large shields. Although they were disabled, they had no problem holding shields to protect them.
All twenty-three heavy crossbows were distributed to all young people.
The old man stood at the front, trying to steal Zhang Yang's limelight.
Fifty meters away from the rear of their small group of dead soldiers, there are a total of 30,000 elite soldiers of the Wei Dynasty. They will fight fiercely with the demon soldiers on this narrow battlefield until they capture the seat 1,200 meters away in front of them. Gufeng, Bald Ridge Fortress.
This kind of scene actually happens every ten days or so, and the blood has dyed the land black.
Two hundred meters behind, on the tall city wall of Black Rock Fortress, several giant black umbrellas had appeared, and someone was pointing below.
"Dong dong dong!"
The war drums are beaten, and after one drum beat, the Death Soldier Battalion must take the lead in attacking.
"My dear nephew, just charge forward with your uncle and the others in a moment. The formation cannot be messed up. The archers of the demon soldiers are very powerful, but they will not launch a rain of arrows just for a small group of us. This is our only To survive, as long as you rush into the demon army formation, you don’t have to worry about anything else, keep rushing forward, the old men will clean up the rear for you, don’t worry about anything else, even women and children, do you understand?”
"We are certain to die today, but I hope you can rush to the Bald Ridge Fortress, even if you die in the battle to the last person. I have killed countless enemies in my life as a soldier. I am happy to die in the hands of the enemy today!"
"Change formation."
Zhang Yang suddenly spoke, interrupting the old man who was intoxicated with his ambition.
"What?"
"No one will die!"
Zhang Yang said expressionlessly.
"Give the big shield to the ten strongest, fastest, and most skilled people. I will lead them to charge into the formation and break away the formation of the demon soldiers. Old man, you can lead people behind to support with heavy crossbows. Women and children are driving the cart at the back, remember not to lose any wood or food on it!"
"What?"
The old man was confused.
Zhang Yang laughed and said, "Uncle, throw away everything in the past. Whether it's glory or loyalty, you don't owe anyone, and I don't owe anyone. From now on, we have to fight for ourselves! This Bald Ridge Fortress, I want it to be famous all over the world because of us in the next nine hundred years!"
