The Hero of the Moon in the Qin Dynasty, Dao Mo Wen, Chapter 687: The Army [Please subscribe*Please vote] "Even if I let you go back, what can you do?" Jin Yao looked at the generals of the Shadow Tiger Army and asked.
.
"I can let you go back, and then what?"
"Then you rushed towards Shouchun like moths to the flame, and finally died on the road without even seeing the royal city of Shouchun."
"Xiang Yan will let you go back?"
"Can you get out of Dragon City without being attacked by Xiang Yan?"
"Even if I help you contain Xiang Yan's army and let you march straight back to Shouchun, what happens next?"
"Shou Chun also has the strongest royal guards in the Chu Kingdom. How can you attack Shouchun?"
Jin Yao's words struck a chord in the hearts of all the soldiers of the Shadow Tiger Legion.
They only had 30,000 shadow tiger troops and 20,000 miscellaneous soldiers. How could they stop Xiang Yan's hundreds of thousands of troops? How could they break through Shouchun, a city with deep walls and high walls? How could they defeat Chu's most elite imperial guards?
Therefore, if they go back now, they will die!
"I will avenge you, but not now, at least not now!" Jin Yao looked at Ji Bu and said seriously.
"Long Jun will really help us take revenge?" Ji Bu looked at Jin Yao and asked hesitantly.
"I promise that I will definitely avenge this revenge!" Jin Yao raised his palm and swore to God.
Ji Bu was silent for a moment, his eyes became firm, and he looked at the other generals. The soldiers of the Shadow Tiger Legion also understood the meaning in Ji Bu's eyes, so they nodded.
"General, Ji Bu, commander of the Shadow Tiger Army, pays homage to your Majesty!" Ji Bu knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice.
Along with this, other generals and commanders of the Shadow Tiger Legion also knelt on the ground and saluted.
Jin Yao frowned. He came to Cangwu just to tell the Shadow Tiger Legion this fact and to prevent the Shadow Tiger Legion from going back to die in vain. He had not thought about conquering the Shadow Tiger Legion.
"I never thought about repaying a favor, nor did I ever think about using it to blackmail you..." Jin Yao explained.
"We voluntarily join Dragon City and become Dragon Guards!" However, Ji Bu and others did not give Jin Yao a chance to finish his words.
"We are already homeless hooligans. If Dragon City is not willing to take us in, there will be no place for us in the world!" the generals of the Shadow Tiger Army continued.
The Chu State was their roots, but the King of Chu regarded them as traitors, killed all their relatives, and took back their fiefdoms. Then they completely became a band of gangsters with no land and no jobs.
Jin Yao was silent again. Who would have thought that the Shadow Tiger Legion, one of the four great legions once famous in the Chu Kingdom, would now become a homeless prodigal.
However, war is like this, and no one can be soft on the other side.
"Get up!" Jin Yao sighed and helped Ji Bu and others up.
"Yingbu, tell me, what happened, why Baiyue held you back for so long!" Jin Yao looked at Yingbu and asked.
"Back to your Majesty, everything was fine before, but then, for some reason, a large army appeared on the Baiyue side!" Yingbu hurriedly ordered someone to hand over the intelligence they had gathered.
Jin Yao carefully browsed the frontline battle report, and the entire Chinese army tent fell into silence, waiting for Jin Yao to read the information.
"Are you sure this army is the Hundred Army?" Jin Yao asked.
No one understands Baiyue better than him. Baiyue is regarded by the Central Plains as a tribe, a barbarian who is not from China. However, in fact, Baiyue actually has different pronunciations. It is controlled by great witches and clan chiefs in various places. It is impossible to gather together.
Come together, let alone appear as an organized army.
"They don't look alike in height and shape!" Yingbu thought about the army he saw, and then shook his head.
Due to their living area and habits, the Baiyue people are generally shorter in height than the Central Plains people, and their appearance is also different from the Central Plains people. They also have the same physique and are thinner.
But the army they saw was almost the same as the army in the Central Plains. The only difference was that they were wearing Baiyue costumes.
"Besides Xiang Yan's army, does Chu have any other troops?" Jin Yao looked at Ji Bu and Ying Bu and asked.
Both of them were top generals in the Chu State, and they should know very well what kind of armies the Chu State has.
"Could it be... the Gumi Army!" After Ji Bu thought for a while, he suddenly remembered an army that they had selectively forgotten.
"Gumi Army?" Jin Yao listened to Ji Bu's words and thought for a long time. He didn't remember that there was such a large army in Chu State, and he had never even heard of the place name Gumi.
"Well, that was the army formed when Lord Chun Shen was still there, with the purpose of attacking Baiyue."
"Back then, the three kingdoms in the north launched the Northern Expedition to annex the grasslands. All countries rushed to help, but Chu was too far away, so in order to maintain justice, they chose to go south and attack Baiyue." Ji Bu explained the origin of this army.
Jin Yao also remembered that during the war in the north, Chu State did launch a war against Baiyue in the south. As for the outcome, they did not care too much.
"After the war, this army was not disbanded on the spot. Instead, after being reduced, 50,000 people were left to garrison to prevent Baiyue's counterattack."
"But with the passing of Lord Chun Shen, this army also lost its supplies. I thought it had been eliminated, but I didn't expect that Xiong Qi reorganized this army!" Ji Bu continued to explain.
"I also remembered it. No wonder when we fought against this army, they spoke Wuyue instead of Baiyue Miao. At first I thought it was Wu Yue who had joined, but now it seems that it is the Gumi army!"
Yingbu finally remembered.
It's not that he didn't know about the existence of Gumi's army, but because after Huang Xie's death, the army had no supplies of food, grass and baggage, so he thought it was disbanded.
But I didn't expect to be picked up again.
"Report, the enemy is attacking!" However, at this moment, emergency military information suddenly came back from the front line.
"Huh?" Jin Yao, Ying Bu and Ji Bu were all surprised.
In the past, Baiyue was defensive and rarely took the initiative to attack. How could it dare to attack Longwei this time?
However, Jin Yao didn't say much. Instead, he asked Ying Bu and Ji Bu to prepare to form a formation to meet the enemy. He also wanted to see who was commanding and controlling behind Baiyue!
The Dragon Guard shrank their formation and quietly waited for the attack of the Hundred Army.
"There's something wrong with the number of people!" Looking at the slowly approaching army, Yingbu frowned again and said.
Jin Yao also nodded. Yingbu's information said that Baiyue had an army of fifty thousand, and the rest were stragglers composed of various tribes in Baiyue.
But what appeared in front of them now was actually an army numbering around 100,000.
The most critical thing is that this army is obviously uncoordinated. The main soldiers of the Chinese army in the middle are taller than the left and right coalition forces on both sides.
"Obviously, the other party doesn't know how to unite the tribes of Baiyue!" Jin Yao said with a dull look.
The worst thing happened, the various ethnic groups in Baiyue actually united together.
