Chapter 222 Ruen Garcia(1/2)
The emperor of a country should not lead the army in person. This involves the face of a country. However, apart from Balliard, the current Jin State only has Zhang Mingxuan who can lead troops to fight. Let Zhang Mingxuan
Going to Zerima? This is not impossible, but after Zhang Mingxuan leaves, who will train the troops?
Even if Balliard is willing to equip all Jin soldiers with automatic rifles, the soldiers' physical fitness and discipline also need to be trained. Those two gunners alone cannot train qualified soldiers. Don't forget this.
The two gunmen are apprentices of Graves' gangster. Discipline? If a gangster has discipline, it will not be a gangster. Maybe a small number of gangsters do have high discipline, but Salva needs to cultivate the ability to operate in most world lines.
Talents can all be put to use, and most gangs have little discipline.
Besides, didn't Isaac say that the cornerstone of this country is Valliard. Only continuous victory of Valliard can stabilize the people and make the country stable. Although Zhang Mingxuan can replace Valliard in the expedition, he can
It had an effect, but it was certainly not as effective as when Balliard went out to fight in person.
Therefore, even when Zhang Mingxuan hurriedly asked to see him last night, Balliard did not agree to Zhang Mingxuan's request to fight. If there is a chance in the future, he can let Zhang Mingxuan go with him on the expedition, but now, it is Balliard's glorious moment, and he will use his own
The victory forged the legend.
"Your Majesty, do you want some water?"
Noyce Cook, a soldier who will follow Balliard to the death, is currently the captain of the three hundred infantry. When he first entered the City of the Sun more than a month ago, Noyce's physical fitness was not outstanding.
But in the relevant tests, he relied on his own will to withstand the physical fitness test that made most people give up halfway.
The most important point in the recruitment requirements issued by Balliard to Zhang Mingxuan is "willpower." Compared with the requirements that qualified soldiers must meet such as physical fitness, experience, and fighting skills, willpower is the most difficult to train.
Balliard hopes to build a strong army as soon as possible. The physical fitness can be improved with medicines and training can be strengthened. In short, one must have firm willpower to persevere and the training results will be outstanding.
As for experience and methods, generals like Zhang Mingxuan can teach them, and there are also victims from Salva who can teach the soldiers. Such traceable training only needs to be carried out step by step, and experience and fighting ability will be significantly improved.
improve.
Noyce is such a person. In a short period of time, he trained hard every day. He was originally a skinny firewood, but now, he has defeated everyone in the infantry team with his own strength. With his own strength, he has gained
He held the position of the only officer in the infantry.
Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that other infantrymen are also weak in physical fitness, but a month ago, Noyce's strength was really very low.
"Um."
It has been two days since they set out. Currently, Balliard and the others are still on the banks of the Leike River. Occasionally, they can still see scavengers in twos and threes. During these two days, Balliard and these soldiers rested and ate in the same tent.
Although Valliard did not need to rest or eat, a voice told him that he needed to do so.
"Your Majesty, can we take Zerima?"
Noyes was originally just an ordinary scavenger, living a precarious life. Moreover, due to the war, the situation of scavengers became more and more difficult. Even if he occasionally met a few poor people who died unexpectedly on the road, he might not be able to learn from those people.
Food and money were found.
For this reason, scavengers like them often go to Zerima to steal chickens and dogs, just to make a living. If there are any valuable things on their bodies, they will occasionally keep some as food money. However, Zerima's guards
We don't care whether the scavengers left food money or not. If they steal chickens and dogs, they should be killed.
Noyce's team of scavengers had about ten people when he joined, but when he joined City of the Sun, there were only two or three people left in the team. The dead scavengers were all killed by Zerima.
He was killed by the guards. He was not very old. He had seen the tragic death of his companions with his own eyes, so he was inevitably afraid of Zerima's guards.
"Of course we can take it down! Zerima is just a bunch of rabble, how can they withstand my attack?"
Balliard spoke the truth proudly. It was rare for a transcendent person to show off his military power in front of mortals.
"Noyce, as the captain of the infantry team, you shouldn't be afraid, right?"
"I am... afraid, but with His Majesty here, I am not afraid anymore."
Noyce thought of that night, when his companion was chopped into two pieces in front of him, with blood and splattered internal organs spraying on his face, and the guard in heavy black armor holding a stainless steel scimitar,
He also licked the blood on the blade.
Those guards were too powerful. Zerima was backed by the Targon Mountains, and melted snow from the mountains flowed down all year round, forming a fertile alluvial plain. Zerima built a city on that alluvial plain. Although there were not many minerals, there was plenty of food. The guards
They all ate their guts out, and slashed the skinny scavenger with a knife, just like smashing a person in half with a hammer.
Not long ago, when Zerima's army came to the city, as the captain of the infantry team, Noyce stood behind Zhang Mingxuan, his body couldn't stop trembling, and the black area seemed like everyone was a devil that night. However,
It was just such a group of devils that were killed by His Majesty alone.
Maybe Zerima has more troops, but with His Majesty here, even if they are just a few hundred people
, Noyce also dared to attack an army of 100,000 people.
"That's good, our army will win this battle."
Balliard's courage as the monarch of the Shadow Island was revealed, and the wind and sand in the sky were stagnant. He had already discovered that he had changed. He had begun to change from the world line of The Legend of the Jade Sword, and when he came from the
After Ren learned that Kyle shaped his humanity, he understood why he changed.
These soldiers are "believing" in him. And Balliard has extremely high divinity, but weak human nature. The appearance he usually shows in front of others is a human "image" that he has painstakingly created for himself.
Panel", in order for this panel to continue to exist naturally, he often "gets beaten" and often shows his lower limit, letting most people in his world know that he is a disgrace to extraordinary people. He bullies the weak and is afraid of the strong.
, what is its purpose? The purpose is to maintain one's own "humanity" with the concepts of the world.
He has never thought about using other people's beliefs to shape his own humanity, because he is the king of Shadow Island, and he wants people to believe... Don't all those who believe in him have to be madmen? He doesn't want to become a madman.
Now, he has inherited everything from Azir and has become the perfect emperor among countless Jin people. His character has also changed due to the expectations of these people. To be honest, this feeling is not bad. Perhaps, he can go further.
?
"Must win! Must win! Must win!"
Hearing Balliard's shout, the soldiers roared one after another. Balliard felt the soldiers' beliefs condensed into him and absorbed by him.
…
Ruth Garcia, the Marquis of Zerima, originally could be regarded as the Duke of a principality based on the size of the territory he occupied, because according to the map, Zerima's territory not only included the large alluvial plain,
There is also the area between the Leike River and the tributary of the Koharli River next door. In terms of land area, it also accounts for 78% of Shurima's land. The most important point is that this 78%
Half of the land is arable land.
It's a pity that his relationship with the two surrounding princely states is not very good. The two families join forces and have more say in the court than he does. They also bribe many nobles and speak ill of the general in his ears, which makes him angry every time.
Applications for admission were rejected.
"What did you say! They were all wiped out! How is that possible! Someone came, this person lied about the military situation, dragged him down and chopped him down!"
Lu En was originally drinking tea in his palace, listening to ditties, and waiting for the good news. There were 30,000 troops, and each one of them had the heavy armor he spent a lot of money to buy from Zu'an. No matter how cruel Emperor Sima Yi was,
Talent, but also a clever woman can't make a meal without rice. It's ridiculous that the two short-sighted guys in Garden City and Marrow Seal City felt that Sima Yi was incompetent and had no idea of sending troops.
He is only worried that if he ignores the City of the Sun, Sima Yi's army will soon arrive at the city. Giving an emperor who once unified this continent enough time to prepare is a recipe for death! Lu En is ambitious, and he wants to
He wants to become a duke, or even a king. If he is lucky enough, he also wants to sit on the emperor's throne.
Therefore, Sima Yi is bound to win. It is a good thing that those two idiots are unwilling to send troops. Anyway, the population of the City of the Sun is not as large as anyone's army, so there is no possibility of problems. When Sima Yi falls into his hands,
He could then raise his title in Sima Yi's name, then issue an edict saying that those two idiots were not worthy of their title, and then seek to seize the Garden City and the Marrow Seal City. Of course, the City of the Sun could not be left behind either.
But what nonsense is this spy telling? All 30,000 troops were wiped out? You're just kidding him!
"Master Hou! Have mercy on me! Master Hou! Everything the villain said is true! I never meant to deceive Master Hou!"
Two sergeants came up from behind the spy, held the spy up, and waited for Lu En to be further punished. Everyone was suffering, and the spies had something to say. The two sergeants were willing to help, but Lu En
If they were ordered to drag the spy out again, they would not be able to disobey it.
"You didn't mean to deceive me? Then tell me, how did that old man Sima Yi kill my 30,000 troops? Even if he couldn't beat me, there were 30,000 people! No one could escape? Is it possible that Sima Yi was a god from heaven?
Already?"
Luen took another sip of tea, then spit it out and pushed the tea cup to the ground.
"Why are you still standing there? This man has ulterior motives. Let's kill him! Let me make a cup of tea again. What a beautiful weather. It really makes the scenery miserable."
"yes!"
"Master Hou! The villain really doesn't have..."
The two sergeants immediately dragged the spy out, and the voices begging for mercy stopped abruptly. Although the two sergeants did not want to do anything to the spy, they could not disobey the order of the Marquis. Besides, this man lied a lot. If he let him go again,
If he continued to speak and made the Marquis even more angry, the two of them might also be implicated, so after leaving the hall, the two sergeants took action.
"Master Marquis, I'm afraid this spy is not one of ours."
Coma Garcia, who claimed to be an unknown scholar, came to Zerima alone more than ten years ago. He was favored by Luen and became the housekeeper of the Marquis Mansion, as well as Luen's strategist and staff officer. Although
He claimed to be just an ordinary scholar, but at that time Luen could tell from Kou Ma's clothes, words and deeds that Kou Ma came from a famous family. Perhaps he had offended the general and had to remain anonymous. It happened that Zerima was far away from him.
The farthest city from the imperial city, Kou Ma came to vote, Lun was not surprised.
"What do you mean by this?"
Lu En can be considered to have some strategies, but as a prince, no matter how strategic he is, his focus is still on political battles and winning people's hearts. Although he has dabbled in military affairs, he is not proficient in it. What's more, Kou Ma has a big heart.
Talent, even if Lun is good at military affairs, he will not fail to listen to Kouma's ideas.
"Although the princes of Garden City and Seal City have not agreed to send troops with us, they may not be happy to see us take over the City of the Sun. Maybe they see us sending troops to the City of the Sun, leaving the internal defense empty, and spreading false reports to disrupt the morale of the army.
, we can take this opportunity to surprise Zerima, Lord Marquis, we must not take it lightly."
Kou Masi thought about it and felt that this was the most likely reason why the spy had sent false news. It is true that he was a son of a noble family in the past. He had heard about Sima Yi's talents and strategies and studied Sima Yi's military planning. However, the population was the largest.
How can a city of 10,000 resist an army of 30,000? If Sima Yi's generals were also resurrected, they would be able to defeat an army of 30,000 with their bravery, but it would be impossible to defeat all 30,000.
To be continued...
