Chapter 17 Battle 1

Such a burly and strong man fell to the ground after being glared at by Lu Qingshan?

No matter how you look at it, it is not a reasonable thing.

Among the other generals behind General Pingnan, another general immediately came out and ran towards the unconscious Li Ze, taking a closer look.

The pulse and breathing are still there and very normal.

"General, Li Ze just fainted temporarily." The general reported to General Pingnan.

General Pingnan breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help but squint his eyes and look at Lu Qingshan, his eyes looked different.

What kind of dharma is this?

Yes, in his opinion, Lu Qingshan must have used some strange Taoist technique to make his general faint.

They are not knowledgeable people. If there were Sword Sect monks here at this moment, they would definitely be able to see that when Lu Qingshan glared just now, there was a flood of sword power spreading out of his eyes.

Although the rules of the Taoyuan world ban mana and soul, things like sword power are invisible, intangible, and illusory, and are not banned.

The problem is that sword power is something that is developed through many years of practicing swordsmanship. It is like the aura of a king and can intimidate people, but it is too unbelievable to hurt people like Lu Qingshan by just relying on sword power.

In fact, the principle is very simple, just like a majestic enough emperor, he can scare a civilian to the point of fainting with just his eyes.

Or maybe it's a gangster who's so vicious that just a slight change in his expression can break the heart.

The sword power condensed in the air just now reached such a terrifying level and created a similar effect.

It's not impossible to say it's Taoism.

Taoism: Sword Power.

It's just the inner way that ordinary people can't see at all.

So they don't understand.

Moreover, this method itself is extremely useless, because it is just a force in itself, with no offensive power and no substance.

It is extremely unbelievable that Lu Qingshan can hurt a mortal without cultivation with this. At another level, even a Qi Refining monk can guard his mind under the impact of the sword.

But in the Taoyuan world, this method is quite useful.

In the Taoyuan world, there are only mortals and no monks.

........

The extremely senior generals behind General Pingnan looked at each other and nodded to each other.

The next moment, someone stood up and said: "Guojiang Long Lu Qingshan, you took advantage of General Li Shen's unpreparedness and used Taoist magic to sneak attack on him. What's your ability? We are not convinced and challenge you!"

Seeing this, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but sigh.

They were all mortals with no cultivation base, and they were like children in his eyes.

Lu Qingshan really didn't have much intention to vent his anger on them.

He glanced at the crowd and said, "Then come together."

"Get ready." Lu Qingshan reminded.

After seeing everyone on guard showing signs of wariness, Lu Qingshan's heart moved and his eyes swept across like a sword.

Wherever they looked, monstrous sword power spurted out, easily overwhelming their minds.

They only felt that their brains went blank, they felt cramps, and then they knew nothing.

It's just a matter of breath.

The battle came to an abrupt end.

The entire school grounds fell silent.

The Dragon and Phoenix Guards officers looked at Lu Qingshan as if they were monsters.

Lu Qingshan didn't take it seriously, shook his head and said: "I will give you a slight punishment for the following offenses. Is there any other punishment for Your Highness?"

Qin Yitian blinked, and then said: "That's it."

Lu Qingshan nodded and casually nodded to several dragon and phoenix guards, "You guys help General Pingnan send his generals back."

"Yes!" Several dragon and phoenix guards whose names were called quickly came out of the queue and responded loudly.

General Pingnan watched all this happen and remained silent, his pressure reaching an extremely low level.

Finally, seeing that the Dragon and Phoenix Guards had helped the generals who had fainted on their horses and were about to leave, he coldly said, "Lu Qingshan, your Taoism is indeed powerful, and I have also heard about the strength of your swordsmanship. I no longer doubt your strength.

But you have to understand that being a general is definitely not something that can only be done by a strong individual. "

"A general must have the ability to manage and lead an army. Otherwise, the general will be called the leader of the martial arts alliance instead of the general."

After saying that, General Pingnan also got on his horse and left without looking back.

…………

Snowflakes danced and drifted.

The pale black mountain rocks are covered with snow.

Creaking.

After the overburdened dead branches on the trees were crushed, the snow fell, and in an instant it became clear, and a long army came into view.

Even when marching in this kind of weather, all the soldiers in the army were very energetic, which shows that this is an army of extremely high quality.

"Tianyan, how long until we can reach Snow Ridge?"

"Report to the general, we still have about two days of travel."

Lu Qingshan, who was riding on the horse, pondered for a while.

At this time, the light white crescent moon has appeared in the sky.

The wind and snow became stronger and stronger.

"The wind and snow are getting stronger. It is not advisable to stay for a long time. We will not camp tonight and march overnight." He ordered.

On the third day after becoming a general, Lu Qingshan left Qincheng with the Dragon and Phoenix Guards to march north to the Snow Ridge.

He wanted to meet the White Walkers in this world for a while.

The journey is full of twists and turns.

As General Pingnan said, one must be a good general if he is excellent in force.

Lu Qingshan also knew that he did not have the ability to lead troops, but so what?

Just know how to use people.

The Dragon and Phoenix Guards are Qin Yitian's personal soldiers, and they are of extremely high quality. The commanders of the Dragon and Phoenix Guards are familiar with the art of war, and they can leave the task of leading troops to these commanders.

Thinking like this, Lu Qingshan took out a brocade bag embroidered with exquisite patterns from his arms.

It was given to him by Qin Yitian before the expedition.

"If a general is in trouble and unable to save himself, he should open his bag of advice."

"Are you Qin Yitian or Zhuge Tian?" Lu Qingshan thought with a smile on his lips.

He looked at the kit again, then stuffed it back into his arms.

.......

The next day at dusk.

Lu Qingshan arrived at the destination with Longfengwei.

Snow Ridge Iron City.

Lu Qingshan stood in front of the city wall, looking up at the dozens of flags fluttering in the wind on the city wall - troops from dozens of countries were gathered here, so naturally there were dozens of flags.

It is precisely because of the gathering of armies from too many countries that it is impossible to enforce orders and prohibitions. Generally, you are in charge of yours and I am in charge of mine. There is no unified command.

There is no doubt that this kind of chaotic command will reduce the combat effectiveness of the Iron City army by several levels.

But even if they know this truth, no one has the intention to make changes.

The military is the foundation of a country.

No country would safely hand over the command of its military to others, even when fighting against foreign enemies.

"Enter the city." The people in the city had already received the message. Seeing that the city gate was already wide open, Lu Qingshan ordered.

...

The furnace burns brightly.

The man sitting at the desk had very thick eyebrows and a very rough beard.

The man's name is Zha Rusong, and he is the general of the Meng Kingdom.

The state of Meng was on good terms with the state of Qin.

"General Cha, the general protecting the country of Qin has led troops into the city today."

The person who spoke was very young and handsome.

General Zha lowered his eyes, "Is that the Lu Qingshan who was able to become a general because he held the Qin Kingdom Sword, but whose origins are unknown?"

"Yes, he is exactly this person. I heard that he has the trust of His Highness from the State of Qin."

"It can be seen that the Dragon and Phoenix Guards are her personal soldiers, and they even gave her personal soldiers..." Zha Rusong raised his eyebrows slightly, "And Pingnan went back to ask for the sword this time for the sword of Zhenguo, but... It’s still a failure.”

"His Royal Highness Qin's favor for Lu Qingshan is evident."

"General, do you want to meet with the general who protects the country?"

"There's no rush," Zha Rusong took a sip from the teapot and said slowly, "Let's take a look first before talking."

"It has been more than two months since the last White Walker attack on the city. After such a long incubation period, the number of White Walkers wandering in the snowfield has accumulated to a certain level, and a big wave will come in the near future."

"At times like this, we should prepare well for war first and wait until after the war to have any interactions." Zha Rusong said meaningfully.

Not all generals are worthy of him meeting.

This is true even for the generals who protect the country.

He had to see if he was worthy of the title of "Protector of the Country".

In Tiecheng, a general without military merit is not a general.

.......

A stretch of tents.

This is where Lu Qingshan’s Dragon and Phoenix Guards are stationed.

"General." A majestic voice came from outside the central tent.

Gu Tianyan, the former commander of the Dragon and Phoenix Guards, hurried in with a flagpole wrapped in a flagcloth in his hand.

"What's the matter?"

In the camp, fire was burning.

Lu Qingshan sat at the desk. On the desk were the records of all the battles between Tiecheng and the White Walkers in the past thirty years.

"General, the flag you ordered has been built." Gu Tianyanhui reported.

Lu Qingshan put down the scroll in his hand, took the flagpole from Gu Tianyan, and was about to check it.

At this moment, a long horn sound suddenly resounded throughout the Iron City.

The trumpet whimpered.

This is the clarion call for the whole city to be on alert.

This horn sound can only mean one thing.

The White Walkers are coming, and they are a huge wave of White Walkers.

Gu Tianyan's expression changed.

"What?" Lu Qingshan asked.

"In the past thirty years, the city's alert horn has only sounded twice. Each time, more than 100,000 soldiers died. It was an extremely tragic battle." He said.

"Are you scared?" Lu Qingshan asked again.

"Of course I'm not afraid," Gu Tianyan said loudly, "As a soldier, he has the right to be timid in battle."

Lu Qingshan laughed boldly, "The flag has been built and the enemy has arrived. Isn't it the time to make achievements and kill the White Walkers?"

"Gu Tianyan, gather the soldiers immediately." He ordered.

"Yes!" Gu Tianyan responded without hesitation.

.........

Amidst the sound of the horn, the sound of heavy footsteps, shouts, and the collision of armor echoed in the Iron City.

In the open space outside the Dragon and Phoenix Guards camp, thousands of soldiers lined up in formation, everyone wearing helmets and armor and holding weapons.

Gu Tianyan had gathered the soldiers in a short time, and his speed was so fast that he was worthy of the name of an elite soldier.

There was silence in the field and military discipline was strict.

A majestic figure suddenly emerged from the crowd and ran up the high platform like riding on the wind.

The person who came was none other than Lu Qingshan.

He had a sword at his waist and a newly made flagpole in his hand.

Lu Qingshan waved vigorously, and the flag fluttered in the wind.

Astonishingly, it was a dragon pattern that was somewhat similar to the pattern on the sword at his waist.

Everyone's eyes were attracted to the big flag.

Lu Qingshan's sharp eyes scanned the entire audience.

The soldiers couldn't help but hold their breath.

They have not fought a battle with Lu Qingshan, but this general exudes an inexplicably convincing temperament. In addition, the Dragon and Phoenix Guards are elite soldiers, so even the division that has not yet fought can still Morale remains high.

"General!" Gu Tianyan stepped forward, knelt on one knee and clasped his fists, "All the Dragon and Phoenix Guards are here."

The whole army shouted in unison: "General!"

The city gates in the distance, all the city gates, have been slowly opened.

The sound of the city gate being pushed was rumbled.

After each city gate is opened, an army will rush out.

Snowflakes are flying all over the sky, the north wind is howling and dancing, and amid the melodious and dull sound of the horn, the sound of horse hooves and footsteps is like rolling thunder.

As mentioned before, if you want to kill the White Walkers, you cannot rely on bows and arrows. You must go out of the city to fight.

Between the thin wind and snow, through the gap between the crowd, a pale shadow caught Lu Qingshan's eyes.

That's the White Walkers.

Without any further hesitation, Lu Qingshan pulled out the dragon bird with a loud sound.

The blazing red dragon bird is like a blazing flame in the snow-covered Iron City.

"The city gate is open, send out troops!"
