Chu Li sat on the horse, his mind wandering.
He is just an ordinary soldier, neither a captain nor a centurion, nor a captain of thousands, nor a captain of ten thousand. He is far away from the general, and has never seen the general.
No matter how much the general loves his soldiers as his sons, he cannot remember an ordinary soldier.
Does the general want to see him because of his identity as a disciple of the Guangming Holy Cult, or because he has performed extraordinary feats and killed Zhu Wuji, the general of the Feiyun Army
As he rode his horse, he looked around.
The streets seemed extraordinarily empty, with few people walking around. Every household stayed behind closed doors. Most of the people left Luoqiu City and moved to the rear to prevent the city from being destroyed.
When the war broke out, the people were worse than dogs. He sighed secretly. It was a pity that the people couldn't be their own masters. They wanted to live a peaceful life but couldn't get it. If they wanted to live a better life in this world, they could only climb up desperately.
Soon they arrived in front of the city guard's house. After dismounting, they followed the strong knight in charge into the city guard's house and came to the front of the hall.
"General, the Yingyang Army Zhao Dahe has arrived!" the strong knight said in a deep voice.
"Come in!" A clear voice sounded.
Chu Li stepped into the hall.
Directly north of the hall is a high platform with five steps. On the platform are a table and an imperial chair. There is a tiger skin on the imperial chair. Sitting on the tiger skin is a thin and slender middle-aged man with a clear beard floating under his chin. Floating, elegant and unique, a pair of eyes are like cold stars, penetrating into the heart.
There were two guards with swords standing at the bottom of the steps, one on the left and one on the right holding the swords, staring at him with bright eyes.
Chu Li glanced at the screens on both sides. There were four top masters hidden behind the screens. They were obviously masters in the military.
He knew that this thin, middle-aged man was General Zhou Wuyang of Pingnan. He cupped his fists and saluted: "Zhao Dahe has met the general!"
He didn't expect Zhou Wuyang to look like such a scholar. He thought he was a tall and strong warrior. After all, Zhou Wuyang was famous for being good at fighting tough battles.
Zhou Wuyang stroked his beard and looked at him: "Are you Zhao Dahe?"
"Exactly." Chu Li nodded calmly.
"It's not in line with the rumors." Zhou Wuyang stroked his beard and smiled: "They say Zhao Dahe is violent and arrogant, and he often takes action. I see that you are calm, calm and heavy, but you don't look like that!"
Chu Li clasped his fists and said, "The rumors are true. My subordinate used to have such a bad temper. Now he has changed his ways and started a new life!"
"It's rare to be able to change yourself. You are a smart man!" Zhou Wuyang nodded slowly: "However, your greed for success and eagerness are consistent with the rumors. Wanting to hit the thief directly is too wishful thinking. Fortunately, you are lucky. , it actually succeeded!”
Chu Li nodded.
This success was indeed a fluke. In the final analysis, it took advantage of the Feiyun Army's tendency to underestimate the enemy.
If the guards of General Feiyun Army had expanded their security range to surround the entire mountain, not just around Zhu Wuji, it would be almost impossible to assassinate Zhu Wuji. The Qinggong under the suppression of the military flag was very weak, and he would have disappeared long ago. .
"But in the army, success or failure is the only thing that matters." Zhou Wuyang said, "Did you kill Zhu Wuji?"
Chu Li took off the baggage from his waist and presented it with both hands: "This is the first grade!"
A guard stepped forward to take it, then went up the steps and held it up with both hands.
"Untie it and take a look." Zhou Wuyang said.
The guard untied the baggage, revealing Zhu Wuji's lifelike face.
"Well, it's Zhu Wuji." Zhou Wuyang looked at him carefully, shook his head and said, "He is quite famous, but he fell into your hands!"
He sighed with emotion, stroking his beard and waving his hands.
The guard tied the baggage again, carried it down the steps and put it on the table next to him. He then stood back to his original position under the steps and stood with his knife in his hand. He stared at Chu Li closely to prevent Chu Li from getting into trouble.
"I have decided to give you the position of centurion." Zhou Wuyang said: "Your formation is said to be very powerful. Where are your soldiers?"
"Most of them were killed by the Feiyun Army, and the remaining two were seriously injured. I don't know if they can survive." Chu Li said.
Let's see if Fan Yang and Xu Cihang can be transferred out. If they can't be transferred out, it means they will eventually die.
"Alas... One general's success will lead to thousands of bones drying up." Zhou Wuyang shook his head and didn't care.
"Thank you, General!" Chu Li clasped his fists and breathed a sigh of relief.
With this position, he can escape from the sharp camp.
There seemed to be no danger in staying at Fengrui Camp, and Yang Ping did not dare to let himself go out, but who knew whether he would change his mind at the next moment. Yang Ping was a capricious person, and it was especially bad to have his life depend on his thoughts.
"You have a strong spirit and are not afraid of the enemy or death." Zhou Wuyang said: "This is exactly what our army is lacking at the moment. Do you want to continue to participate in the war?"
He knew Chu Li's identity, that's why he asked.
The leader of the Guangming Holy Cult has a very high status. Otherwise, there is no need to discuss with him to stay. The key is that Zhao Dahe is a prodigy in martial arts and is valued by the Saint of the Guangming Saint. He does not want to fall out with the saint.
Chu Li said: "General, if I join the battle, can I lead the troops?"
Wanxiang Guizong's progress was particularly rapid in the war. If Wanxiang Guizong hadn't been so diligent this time, it would not have been so easy to deal with the Supreme Monk. The Supreme Monk was extremely skilled in physical skills and unpredictable in his thoughts, making him too difficult to deal with.
He wanted to kill the Supreme Monk, but the quickest way was not to improve his cultivation level. With his current level of cultivation, it would be difficult to go further, unless there was another unexpected encounter. The fastest way was to improve his cultivation level and return to his clan.
He is becoming more and more able to realize the magical effect of returning everything to his origin. The feeling of having everything under control is fascinating and will be even more helpful in the future.
"Leading troops..." Zhou Wuyang stroking his beard pondered, and finally shook his head: "Although you have the position of centurion, it is impossible to give you a hundred men. You can only serve as a commander first, and work your way up step by step... to rise to a high position suddenly, you cannot lead troops. This method will not only harm your subordinates, but also yourself!"
Chu Li nodded calmly.
Zhou Wuyang said: "If you stay, you can join the infantry and train them with formations. You may not be able to make meritorious deeds again!"
"Thank you, General." Chu Li clasped his fists and said, "I'll allow you to think about it."
"Well, the war has begun. It's time to serve the imperial court. You should think carefully about it!" Zhou Wuyang stroked his beard and said: "Well, go ahead and the reward will be awarded soon!"
Chu Li thanked him again, said goodbye and left.
After he left the city guard's mansion, his brows were furrowed and he looked very...
The position of chief is indeed too low, and the lower the position, the more involuntarily one has to do oneself. Should he improve his status here and return to his clan, or should he return to Gale City
He slowly returned to the Yingyang Army barracks in the east of the city. As soon as he entered the camp gate, Jiang Jinfu was already waiting there.
"Come with me quickly!" Jiang Jinfu waved and said impatiently: "The general is already waiting!"
Chu Li clasped his fists and didn't say much.
Jiang Jinfu was too lazy to say more.
Chu Li killed Zhu Wuji to rescue Ying Yang's army and avoid a major defeat. Jiang Jinfu was very excited at the time, but after the excitement passed, he resumed his disgust and jealousy towards Chu Li.
He was most jealous of Chu Li's great achievements. If it were him, how wonderful it would be! (To be continued.)
