Chapter 421: Demon Hunting Division
On the way to Niutoushan, Zhao Changge saw several battles between Wei Jun and the Tang army, with each winning or losing.
Zhao Changqing put on his armor and went into battle in person. He had spoken beforehand. In the battle with the Tang army, regardless of rank, as long as it is a powerful fighting force, it must be used.
As a peak land god, I can directly affect the outcome of a small battle.
This is why he resolutely chose to go into battle to kill the enemy, despite the opposition of his ministers.
The biggest battle these days is still the one between Bai Qi and Zuo Buqun.
The two started a decisive battle in a wilderness. Bai Qi used the strategy of luring the enemy. Although he was defeated at first, fortunately, he lured the enemy into an ambush circle, causing a lot of damage to Zuo Buqun's troops.
It was a pity that Zuo Buqun had been prepared for this for a long time. Instead of pursuing the victory, he asked a small group of troops to kill people and find out the strength of the enemy's army.
The enemy troops that Bai Qi ate were this group of troops.
There were about 20,000 to 30,000 people, all of whom were beheaded by Bai Qi, and no one survived.
In recent years, Bai Qi has increasingly developed a habit of fighting.
That means leaving no one alive.
Currently, five members of the Tang Kingdom's Jiulong General, Kong Yan, Ye Xiaochen, Zuo Buqun, Wang Yunhe, and Li Taixuan, have arrived on the battlefield.
In cooperation with Deng and Xia's armies, a total of 1.5 million troops gathered in the Niutoushan area.
As for the Wei army, all the five tiger generals were present, and there was also King Changlin who also made no concessions. As for the generals, Li Cunxiao took the lead, and Li Yuanba and others were all generals who had fought a hundred battles and were very powerful.
In terms of general lineup, they are basically a little higher than the Tang army.
Of course, the higher here does not refer to the number of people.
It turned out that when Bai Qi and others came, they brought an army of 750,000.
Together with the original Chen Qingzhi's troops, Zhao Changlin's troops, and the heavy armored cavalry, the military strength has reached a terrifying 1.55 million troops.
However, the Wei army still did not dare to take it lightly, because according to the reports from Jin Yiwei's spies, the Tang State had a tendency to continue sending troops here.
If this is really the case, then in terms of military strength alone, the Wei army cannot compare with the Tang army.
But wars, especially large-scale corps battles, are never won or lost because of the large number of people and the small number of people.
At least, this is not the main factor.
The 1.55 million army was uniformly arranged by Zhuge Liang and divided into seven parts.
The Five Tiger Generals, King Changlin, and himself each led an army, each with an army of two hundred thousand.
There are still 150,000 troops serving as rear troops, waiting for supplies and holding down the formation at all times.
This approach was also to deal with the next Tang Army attack.
If someone suffers a defeat, no matter how bad it is, it will only be a loss, and it cannot be said to be a devastating defeat.
Niutou Mountain has ups and downs, among which there is the highest peak, Niutou Peak.
This place has been firmly controlled by the Wei army.
At this moment, Zhao Changqing, whose armor was stained with blood, was looking at the Tang army from the top of the mountain, which was hundreds of miles away.
Bai Qi, who had just experienced the war a few days ago, was standing behind the emperor.
Neither of them changed their armor because they didn't know when the war would come. At this time, there was no need to remove their armor.
Daji stood beside the emperor and said with concern: "Your Majesty, why don't you change into plain clothes and take off this armor so that I can wipe it clean?"
Zhao Changqing shook his head, "No need, let's wait until the war has stabilized."
When marching and fighting, it is common for some people not to change their armor for several months.
Daji wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Zhao Changqing, "You go back to the camp to rest first. I have something to discuss with General Bai Qi."
Daji was very sensible, nodded, and then retreated.
Bai Qi looked at the emperor, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the current war situation seems to be very favorable to us."
Zhao Changqing shook his head, "No. All the soldiers came here after a long journey. They are already very tired. They have been fighting for a whole year and a half. How many of our soldiers do you think we have now?"
Are you willing to fight?"
Bai Qi frowned upon hearing the sound and remained silent.
Zhao Changqing said sadly: "But this war still has to be fought."
Bai Qi said firmly: "The general is confident that he can defeat the Tang army."
Zhao Changqing smiled and said, "I came to you today not to discuss the war. You have always been outspoken and say what you have to say. Tell me, how is this woman Daji?"
Bai Qi lowered his head and clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty's daughter, as a minister, will not dare to make any arbitrary comments."
He was a little surprised.
Why does Your Majesty ask yourself this kind of question?
If the answer is not good, it will be very easy to offend that woman and His Majesty!
Zhao Changqing opened his mouth and said: "I pardon you for your innocence. You can speak out. Otherwise, if you are so hesitant, I will feel that you are afraid to speak out."
Bai Qi is a good fighter, but his political awareness is not high. "Since Your Majesty asked the general to speak, the general will speak frankly. The girl next to your majesty is from the fox tribe, not my human tribe. The general once heard,
Thousands of years ago, the demon race and the human race were very discordant and even went to war with each other. The general was afraid that this woman would approach your majesty and have a bad nature."
When he finished speaking, beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.
But there is no way, this is what he thinks in his heart, he does not want to deceive the king.
Zhao Changqing nodded, "What you said makes sense. Monsters are monsters after all. So I want to ask you to do something after the war."
Bai Qi asked: "I wonder what kind of thing your Majesty wants the general to do?"
Zhao Changqing said: "In the past few years, demons have frequently appeared in the world. I always feel that it is not a good thing, but relying on intuition alone cannot be so arbitrary. So I want you to get close to Qingqiu, or in other words, use the power of the court.
, create an organization specifically targeting monsters, this organization is called the Monster Anti-Monster Division. I have thought about it a lot, and until there is no suitable candidate, you will be temporarily appointed as the commander of the Monster Anti-Monster Division."
Bai Qi blurted out and asked: "Why is he the last general?"
Zhao Changqing said: "After unifying the world, sooner or later I will retire to the mountains and concentrate on my cultivation. Sooner or later, this world will be in the hands of the prince. You are tenacious and outspoken. You are never afraid of offending anyone, and you hit me one after another.
Having fought two battles to destroy the country, I am worried that one day you will become so successful that you will not be able to enjoy your old age in peace. The Demon Suppression Division is the escape route I carefully selected for you. You have always been decisive in killing, and with the Demon Suppression Division in your hands, you should be able to deal with it
The monsters hiding in various places act as a deterrent."
Bai Qi was stunned and actually knelt down on one knee to the emperor.
Zhao Changqing hurriedly went to help him, "It doesn't have to be like this. There are some things between you and me, the monarch and our ministers, which you don't need to avoid in the future."
Bai Qi bowed solemnly and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. In the end, the general will serve his country to the best of his ability until his death!"
Zhao Changqing patted Bai Qi's shoulder heavily and said: "My idea is that after unifying the world, you will retreat behind the scenes and take charge of the Demon Suppression Department. I will personally help you prepare the Demon Suppression Division in the future. When the war is over, I will let you
Secretary Shi, your stroke will make you famous throughout the ages."
Bai Qi was so grateful that he didn't know what to say.
"Zhao Gao."
Zhao Changqing called him.
"My slave is here."
Since Daji stayed in the military camp, he did not leave and was responsible for taking care of the emperor's daily life.
Moreover, it would not work if Daji did not have a eunuch to take care of her.
"I feel that Bai Qi's hard work and merits have made him great in drafting the decree for me, so I am hereby conferring him the title of Lord Wu'an."
This short sentence really carries a huge weight in Bai Qi's heart.
"Except for Yue Fei, all the five tiger generals basically have titles. Although the title of king is not as good as that of duke, it is still a title after all. I will reward him separately after he unifies the world in the future."
Zhao Changqing looked at Bai Qi sincerely.
He has always treated this god of death with great respect.
Bai Qi took a deep breath, suppressed his inner excitement, and bowed, "General, I would like to thank Your Majesty for the title!"
Zhao Changqing nodded with satisfaction, "Go down and have a rest. Remember, I don't want anyone to know about the Demon Hunting Division. This organization must be established, but it's not the time yet. The less people know about it, the better it will be."
