After all, Xiang Yan was a soldier and acted vigorously and resolutely. He quickly recruited his old troops and began to select soldiers from a large area in Chu State to reorganize the Tenglong Army.
But there was nothing he could do about the Shadow Tiger Legion and the Thunder Leopard Legion.
The Shadow Tiger Legion is backed by the Ji family of Danyang. It is nominally one of the four major legions of the Chu State, but is actually the Ji family's private army.
But now, Ji Bu is in jail and he has no clue if he wants to rebuild.
It is impossible for Ji to give him the training methods of the Shadow Tiger Legion.
As for the Thunder Leopard Legion, it can be rebuilt. After all, Yingbu himself was born as a civilian. The training method of the Thunder Leopard Legion is just the normal cavalry training method. The only difference is that Yingbu is such a brave general.
"Let's reorganize the Thunder Leopard Legion first!" After reorganizing the Tenglong Legion, Xiang Yan turned his target to the Thunder Leopard Legion.
However, when he wanted to find Yingbu, he discovered that Yingbu had actually returned to his hometown!
"Hometown? Where is General Yingbu's hometown?" Xiang Yan was a little confused. He only knew that Yingbu was a general promoted from civilians, but he never asked where Yingbu's hometown was.
"Jiujiang!" Chang Shi Xiang Liang replied.
"Jiujiang!" Xiang Yan was also stunned, "Isn't it occupied by the rebel army?"
"Yes!" Xiang Liang nodded helplessly.
"You didn't stop me?" Xiang Yan was very angry that he actually let such a general go.
Xiang Liang did not speak, and they did not expect that Xiang Yan would re-appoint Yingbu as the commander of the Thunder Leopard Army and reorganize the Thunder Leopard Army.
Moreover, they did not want Yingbu to still be in charge of the new Thunder Leopard Corps, so they tried to squeeze Yingbu out of words and wanted Yingbu to leave on his own.
How could Yingbu, who had grown up in the Chu Kingdom since childhood, not know that the Xiang family was ostracizing him? He thought that Xiang Yan would be a selfless general, but he ended up overthinking it.
Therefore, frustrated, Yingbu also chose to leave. As a defeated general, there was no place for him in the entire Chu State!
Therefore, Yingbu returned to Jiujiang with a group of men from the river who came out with him, who were the middle-level generals of the previous Thunder Leopard Corps.
Yingbu was not reused, let alone them, especially since they were born with mud-legged backgrounds and bandits, how could those nobles take a fancy to them!
It's better to follow Yingbu back to Jiujiang and become your own Jiujiang water thief again!
Xiang Yan wanted to send people to chase him, but no one from the Xiang clan moved, so Xiang Yan remained silent. After all, he was the leader of the Xiang clan, and he still had to think about his clan members.
On the way back to Jiujiang, Yingbu did not expect to meet a group of business travelers.
"Ahead is the commander of the Thunder Leopard Corps, General Yingbu!" The steward of the caravan caught up with Yingbu and his party.
Yingbu was stunned for a moment, then fell silent, "A certain person is no longer the commander of the Thunder Leopard Corps, and the Thunder Leopard Corps no longer exists!"
The caravan manager also knew that the battle had just been defeated and what happened to Yingbu. He did not reveal his scars anymore, but continued, "My young master would like to invite the general to come to the pavilion to talk about it!"
"Who are you?" Yingbu became solemn and looked at the steward seriously.
He is upright, elegant and elegant. He is by no means comparable to ordinary people. He is definitely the kind of butler of a wealthy family who has passed down poems and books to his family.
"Dongting Wu family!" the steward replied with a smile.
"Is it Wu Rui from Jiujiang Longjun's command?" Yingbu became even more solemn.
Even if he is no longer a Chu general, it is still best not to get mixed up with those rebels and insurgents.
"General Yingbu is going to return to Jiujiang, is he going to turn into a bandit, or is he going to disband his troops and return to his fields?" However, before Yingbu could return, a crisp female voice appeared.
A 28-year-old girl dressed as a man stood gracefully behind the steward and asked with a smile.
"I've seen a female gentleman!" Yingbu saw the girl dressed in men's clothing and knew that she was dressing up as a man for the convenience of going out.
At this time, even if you know that the other person is a woman disguised as a man, you won't actually expose it.
"Does the general think falling off the grass or returning to the fields is the best choice?" Wu Rui's daughter Wu Qingqing looked at Yingbu and continued to ask.
Yingbu was silent. His life had just begun. He was still young. How could he hope to become a bandit? If he was a bandit, he would not join the army.
Can it be used to plow fields?
"Long Jun is recruiting generals. Since the general has nowhere to go, why not consider serving under Long Jun?" Wu Qingqing continued.
"Impossible!" Yingbu replied reflexively.
"Why is it impossible? Because Long Jun was born in the rebel army?" Wu Qingqing asked.
"No!" Yingbu shook his head. He himself came from a humble background, how could he dislike others.
"Is that because the Dragon Lord's position is incorrect?" Wu Qingqing understood. After all, the Dragon Lord was appointed by himself, not by the world.
Yingbu was silent again, which was indeed one of the reasons why he was unwilling to go.
"But the State of Qin has already recognized the identity of Lord Long!" Wu Qingqing said with a smile.
"The general is probably afraid. He is afraid that as a defeated general, he has defected to the enemy and will not be taken seriously. He is also afraid that he will bear the bad reputation of surrendering to the enemy!" Wu Qingqing's red eyes quickly guessed what Yingbo did not want to go.
root cause.
Although the Thunder Leopard Legion has never fought against the rebels, the Thunder Leopard Legion is, after all, the regular army of the Chu State and is inherently hostile to the rebels.
"The world is rotten to the core, and the Chu State has also collapsed. Can we just accept it?"
"Why did the rebel army revolt? Why did the Dragon Lord appear? It was not the action of those with intentions, but the spontaneous behavior of countless people who could not survive. The Dragon Lord only wanted to save some people and save more people, and then he changed
Become the Dragon King you are today."
"If General Yingbu can't even see this clearly, then it's nothing but a little girl. We have never seen her!"
Wu Qingqing was a little disappointed with Yingbu's performance and turned back to the caravan's chariot.
The caravan continued on its journey, passing by Yingbu and others without saying another word.
Yingbu and his generals were silent, watching the caravan go away.
"General, what the female gentleman said is not unreasonable." A general said.
"We have also heard about the Dragon Lord. The Dragon Lord did not take the initiative to become the Dragon Lord. At first, he just couldn't stand the Chu army's killing of good people and taking credit, and then he took action to save an insurrectionary army. After that, he slowly
He was supported by the rebel army and became the Dragon King!" Another general said.
"You also want to serve as a servant in Lord Long's tent?" Yingbu looked at the crowd and asked.
All the generals and commanders were silent. They were ordinary people from Jiujiang, and they would be under the jurisdiction of Lord Long when they returned to Jiujiang.
Now that someone has recommended it, why can't they join the Dragon Lord and join the rebel army?
To whom should I serve as a soldier?
As for loyalty, it was Chu who abandoned them first!
Just because they have no origin and no background behind them!
