Three Hundred and Twentieth Chapters Exploits and Generals
It didn't take long for the spies from Nanyun Kingdom to find out the situation on the border of Nanlin Kingdom. The previous spies died, and it is enough to send out some more now. Seeing this information, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
The last time Huo Hai killed more than 100,000 demons by himself, it was because the demons were all asleep, and Huo Hai only needed to send them to the west one by one. But this time, Huo Hai actually used poison to kill so many troops. When will something like poison be so powerful. This is the first time in the history of Nanyun Kingdom's war.
Even many people started to fear Huo Hai, the most obvious one was the third prince and his party. Now every time before eating something, someone has to try it first to see if it is poisonous. This kind of appearance made Huo Hai despise him.
Even if he wanted to kill people like Yunfei, Huo Hai would not use poison. Otherwise, it would be reminiscent of myself. There are not many poison spiritual masters in Nanyun Kingdom, and there are even fewer who can use such strong poisons.
The army on the opposite side has now fallen into collapse. The best way now is naturally to send troops to attack. But now in the western border defense line, because the third prince and the Huo family are at odds with each other. Now it is impossible to send troops. Yunfei and the others desperately sought trouble for the Huo family, constantly looking for various excuses to provoke.
The Huo family's senior management may not care, but the Huo family still has many side descendants and a large number of subordinates. These people are not so easy to provoke, because the two sides didn't pay attention for a while, the whole western border was turned into a miasma.
When they really determined that the troops on the opposite side were seriously insufficient, and even food and grass were even more of a problem, it was already too late. Because the people below were arguing too much with each other, the soldiers at the grassroots level couldn't cooperate.
In desperation, such a good opportunity can only be given up now. The time dragged on and on until three days later. On this day, early in the morning, a big bird appeared in the sky above Xijiang City. No, it's not a bird, it's an airship. The airships from the capital are now fighting against the magician. These airships are constantly supporting everywhere, and everyone knows them.
The airship landed, and all the high-level officials in Xijiang had arrived. "Hello everyone, I am Lianfeng. I believe many people know me. This is an appointment given to me by the lord of the country. You can take a look." Lianfeng walked down and showed the appointment to everyone.
Seeing this appointment, Huo Feng's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking about. As for Yunfei, his face has completely turned into the color of the bottom of the pot at this time. Although these days, Yunfei's face has never looked good.
The appointment is issued by the head of the country himself, there is no problem at all, and no one can fake it. As mentioned in the appointment, because of the mistakes Yunfei made and the mistakes made by Yunfei's subordinates were too great. The king thought that Yunfei was no longer suitable to be the commander-in-chief of Xijiang, so he sent Lianfeng, a general from the kingdom closest to here, to become the commander-in-chief of Xijiang.
As for Yunfei, he became the deputy commander-in-chief at the same time as Huo Feng, the old head of the Huo family, to assist in commanding the overall situation. How could Yunfei not be annoyed that the commander-in-chief that Yunfei finally obtained was gone like this. Without the identity of the commander-in-chief, the plan is even more difficult to carry out.
Now that he has the same identity as Huo Feng, he will not be able to suppress Huo Feng in future battles. It seems to be even more difficult to obtain the Xuan Ying Jue. Yunfei was in a bad mood, but he still went with Huo Feng to welcome the new commander in chief.
"One more thing, is Huo Hai there? I still have a reward personally handed down by the lord here." At this moment, Lianfeng suddenly took out another scroll. Looking at the symbols on the scroll, everyone knew that it was written by the king himself. This matter had been expected for a long time, Huo Hai walked out from the side corner with a face of indifference.
"I am Huo Hai, I don't know what the Lord wants me to do." Huo Hai said slowly.
Lianfeng looked at Huo Hai meaningfully, and then said: "Huo Hai has made great contributions in this battle, so I will reward Huo Hai..." What the Lord wrote on the scroll is nothing more than a meaning.
Because Huo Hai destroyed the opponent's food and grass, rescued Wang's army, and used poison, directly poisoning a large number of enemy troops. Whether Huo Hai is willing to accept such a great achievement is one thing, but the king must reward him.
Huo Hai listened with a sneer in his heart: "Hmph, do you feel the threat from me? You really deserve to be an old fox for using this method." Nothing at all. The military rank has already reached the head of the army, so Huo Hai naturally cannot continue to improve. It is not so easy for generals and marshals to be promoted.
So the reward given by the lord to Huo Hai was to recruit soldiers. From now on, Huo Hai can recruit troops as his own private soldiers. Within the scope allowed by the lord, Huo Hai can recruit a total of 100,000 private soldiers.
Hearing this, there was a gasp in the surroundings, and there were hundreds of thousands of private soldiers, which not many people in Nanyun Kingdom could have. The four major families have no private soldiers, and only a few lords have private soldiers. One hundred thousand people, this number, compared with Huo Hai's achievements today, is indeed enough. But actually it means nothing.
Huo Hai knew that training soldiers was not an easy task. In Nanyun Kingdom, only the royal family can directly train 100,000 soldiers. It's not that other forces don't want to, but they can't, can't do it.
The food, clothing and housing of 100,000 soldiers is a huge fortune, and the daily consumption and training are not something ordinary people can afford. Even if the current Huo family is hollowed out, they cannot arm so many elite soldiers.
Besides, at this juncture, those who are capable of serving as soldiers have all joined the army to fight against the magician. Where did Huo Hai go to find a source of soldiers. If the aptitude is not enough, forcibly expropriating it will make your reputation bad, and you will not have much combat effectiveness. If you find someone with combat effectiveness, you will offend all the high-level officials of Nanyun Kingdom all over the place, and the loss outweighs the gain.
In the current situation, let alone one hundred thousand, even one thousand Huo Hai would not even think about recruiting. This reward, in the current situation, is almost the same as nothing. The royal family wanted to stabilize themselves, and they also showed great favor to themselves.
After he had offended everyone around him, it was time for the royal family to clean up themselves. Huo Hai narrowed his eyes slightly, he was completely disappointed with the royal family. When the disaster is over, I will clean up you bastards.
Huo Hai bowed and said: "Thank you for the reward from the lord, I will definitely continue to work hard to protect Nanyun Kingdom." Huo Hai's various etiquette made it difficult to find fault. He took the scroll with both hands, and put it into his arms respectfully. After that, Huo Hai retreated to the side, completely ignoring the various eyes with different meanings from the people around him.
"The general is here for the first time, why don't we let the general clean up the dust. Also, some defenses in Xijiang also need to be handed over to you, the general." Huo Feng took a step forward, leading Lianfeng towards Xijiang Go to the Lord's Mansion of Chengyuan.
The original lord's mansion has now been turned into a headquarters, but it doesn't mean that there is no place to entertain guests. On the contrary, the lord's mansion is fully equipped, and the hall where guests were entertained before can be entered after tidying up.
Huo Hai, as a dazzling star who is currently attracting attention, has no choice but to follow. The reception banquet is similar to what Huo Hai thought, that's what happened. However, many people came to curry favor with themselves. Of course Huo Hai knew what these people wanted to do, so he found an excuse and left the banquet. He has to think carefully about what to do next.
Do you want to make some mistakes and reduce your own credit? It is better to continue to make meritorious service and simply make the royal family feel more and more uncomfortable. If you make a mistake, you don't need the royal family to trouble yourself, and Yunfei will never let it go.
This guy is staring at Huo's family at this time. If anyone has a little problem, he will jump out. Today's Yunfei seems to be completely focused on the Huo family, and his style of acting has become no different from that of a villain.
As for continuing to make meritorious service, I am afraid that no one will give himself this opportunity. Among other things, a general attack on the border of Nanlin State will be launched soon. The border of Nanlin State has become like this now, as long as it is involved in this matter, not everyone has credit for it. What annoyed Yunfei the most was this matter. If he hadn't been restrained by the Huo family, Yunfei would have been able to attack as early as three days ago.
Now, most of these credits have to be given to the new general. Of course, Yunfei also knows a lot about Lianfeng. One of several generals in the kingdom, he is very good at leading troops in battle.
After walking for a long time, Huo Hai shook his head: "Forget it, let's get those little guys here first." Huo Hai suddenly thought that his previous hundred men seemed to be pretty good. Military power is not without its benefits, so let's build a guard for ourselves first. The family now has a large number of unused elixirs, which are just used to train their subordinates.
Huo Hai looked certain, so he did it. With a plan, Huo Hai immediately set off to find those men.
That night, the entire barracks began to get busy. All the soldiers knew that they were about to attack Nanlin. Now Nanlin Kingdom has become like this, as long as it is conquered, it will be the territory of Nanyun Kingdom. Maybe, Nanyun Kingdom can grow a lot in this battle. These heroes will naturally benefit a lot when the time comes.
The grassroots cadres who were still fighting each other, finally let go of their prejudices, although they are still divided into two parts. Some are inclined to the Huo family, and some are inclined to Yunfei.
Tomorrow will prepare to attack, time is very tight. When the banquet was over, Lianfeng had already issued an order for the soldiers to be ready at any time. I don't know what they talked about together.
