Chamberlain stared at Murong Xiaotian silently for a few seconds, wondering what he was thinking.
Suddenly he snorted coldly, and his tone became stern: "Creating chaos, robbing other companies, and killing imperial officers. I am a thief. Do you know the crime?"
"The robbery of armaments happened for a reason. Our troops traveled day and night for eight days to finally get here. We were hungry and cold, but the armaments belonging to our company were misappropriated by other companies. The soldiers lost control of their emotions, so they acted inappropriately; as for killing a man
Company Commander, this matter is false, the situation was chaotic at the time, how exactly the Company Commander died remains to be verified."
"Humph, you are really good at talking. How could such a big thing come out of your mouth and become an understatement?"
Chamberlain snorted again.
"Damn, killing an imperial officer is a capital crime. Of course I won't admit it!" Murong Xiaotian sneered secretly in his heart.
Now, unlike before, Liuzi had understood the situation here clearly. Murong Xiaotian already knew that it was absolutely impossible to escape from the battlefield through this matter.
In this case, of course we have to clear things up.
"Report to the marshal, urgent military situation!"
At this moment, an intelligence officer from the military headquarters came galloping over on a fast horse.
"Enemy troops have been found in the direction of the black wind outlet!" the intelligence officer quickly replied.
"What? Black wind outlet?"
Marshal Chamberlain and the colonel were shocked at the same time and screamed.
If the Moros want to cross Fengmang Mountain and enter the Gale Empire, they have two ways to go.
One of them is the front of Jinxiang Town. This road is very wide, not blocked by heavy snow, and is extremely easy to walk. Many years ago, the Moro people and the Gale Empire used this road for trade.
The battle between the two sides for more than ten years has also used this road as a battlefield.
The other road is the Heifengkou on the side of Jinxiang Town.
But on that road, there was a river with a width of more than 40 meters blocking it. The river was so rough that ordinary soldiers could not cross it at all.
Originally, there was a bridge here many years ago, but at the beginning of the war many years ago, the bridge was destroyed by people sent by the Gale Empire.
From then on, the battles between the two sides were conducted head-on, and this road was gradually forgotten by people.
Chamberlain's heart sank. Now he finally understood why the Moros had been in truce for three consecutive years. It turned out that while recharging their strength, they were building bridges.
At the same time, I felt extremely regretful and blamed myself deeply. It was myself who had neglected the road to Black Wind Pass. But just because of this negligence, it was possible to bring the most fatal blow to the Gale Empire.
"How far is the enemy from the Black Wind Gate? How many troops are there?" Chamberlain's eyes showed unprecedented nervousness.
Black Wind Pass, less than five miles away from the left flank of Jinxiang Town, is also known as Black Wind Canyon.
The canyon is less than five meters wide, with cliffs on both sides towering into the clouds. But once you get out of the black wind outlet, it becomes a flat river.
If the Moros break out of the Black Wind Pass and march straight in, the Gale Empire will be in danger.
"The strength of the two regiments is, however, light cavalry. They are less than 15 miles away from Heifengkou."
"Click!"
Chamberlain's heart sank again, and even his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The light cavalry of the two regiments are undoubtedly the vanguard, and their target is Heifengkou; once they occupy Heifengkou and wait for the subsequent large forces to arrive, they will really be helpless.
"Changsheng, you immediately lead the reinforced armored company and go straight to the Black Wind Pass. You must occupy the Black Wind Pass before the Moro cavalry arrives."
"yes!"
The colonel officer who had been following Chamberlain immediately took action.
The ownership of Heifengkou was related to the fate of the empire. Chamberlain did not dare to hesitate at all.
Even the Tianhu Legion, the second frontal line of defense, is seven or eight kilometers away from Jinxiang Town. It is too late to wait for the order to be sent and mobilize the troops.
In Jinxiang Town now, apart from the military's reinforced armored guard company and the 18th New Regiment, there are only armaments, military supplies and other logistics personnel.
As for the 18th New Regiment, even the head of the regiment has not yet been found. How can it go on an expedition?
Chamberlain could only make such a decision.
When the armored guard company began to take action, Chamberlain's eyes were fixed on Murong Xiaotian's face again, looking at him intently, his eyes hesitant, as if he was making some important decision.
After watching for half a minute, he suddenly said: "I am now ordering you to be the acting commander of the 18th New Corps. I will give you 15 minutes to integrate the 18th New Corps. After the integration is completed, rush to Heifengkou.
Support; as for the military law you violated, I will write it down for you for the time being. I hope you can redeem yourself and make meritorious service."
"yes!"
Murong Xiaotian puffed up his chest and immediately said, "But, I have a condition."
"explain!"
"I need to replenish my armaments!"
"You can take any armament from the Armament Department and choose whatever you want, but you must set off in 15 minutes!"
"yes!"
Murong Xiaotian's face showed his signature evil smile again!
Damn, I got promoted inadvertently. What the hell, being a regiment leader is better than being a company commander. If you manage more people, your chances of winning won't be any greater, right?
Maybe, I am one step closer to completing my mission.
Without saying anything, Murong Xiaotian led the 18th New Regiment and rushed to the Armaments Department. The messenger had already passed on Marshal Chamberlain's order immediately. Everyone in the Armaments Department had been mobilized to prepare for the third army.
Preparation for the service of 18 new regiments.
This kind of thing was unprecedented, and they couldn't understand how the 18th New Regiment could enjoy such high privileges?
"I need a thousand plain knives!"
The equipment that the new regiment is equipped with is a spear and a shield, which are already available. If they just needed these things, Murong Xiaotian would not even come.
He just wanted to equip the 18th New Regiment with some unconventional equipment.
After passing this village, there is no such store. If you don't take it, you will get nothing. There are more equipments, which is not a bad thing.
Tmd, I accidentally got promoted again. In less than 10 days, I actually became a commander of the Gale Empire army. Although I was just an agent, it was unprecedented in the Gale Empire.
.
In any case, since he already has a thousand soldiers under his command, his chances of survival are much higher.
Moreover, his intuition told Murong Xiaotian that this might be an opportunity for the 18th New Regiment.
If you are on a frontal battlefield, your chances of survival are very slim, but if you are guarding the black wind, it will be different.
The Black Wind Canyon is only five meters wide, and it firmly occupies the exit, which means that one man can block it and no one can open it. As long as the 18th New Corps takes root here, the chance of survival will naturally be much greater.
Then, it will be possible to complete the task yourself.
With a word to the quartermaster, Murong Xiaotian walked into the arms warehouse.
Damn, this really opened my eyes. There are so many kinds of things inside, and there are so many different kinds of equipment.
Unfortunately, these weapons and equipment are of no use to players and cannot be equipped at all. They are only suitable for NPC soldiers.
After walking out of the warehouse, Murong Xiaotian immediately asked the quartermaster to equip the 18th New Corps with 1,000 engineer shovels. If you want to defend, you have to build fortifications. This thing will definitely come in handy.
After these arrangements were completed, Murong Xiaotian said to the quartermaster: "The outdoor camping tents in the warehouse of your military quarters department are enough for a regiment. All other types of military equipment, 1,000 sets of each, are sent to me to Heifengkou
, don’t tell me that your munitions department doesn’t have a transportation team.”
Without a transport team, how could these armaments be transported from the imperial city?
"How did your regiment use so much armaments?" The quartermaster looked at Murong Xiaotian in surprise, his eyes widening.
"Do you care whether I can use it or not? Does the Marshal's order mean that I can choose from all the armaments in the Commissary Office?"
"This, that's right!" the quartermaster smiled helplessly.
"This is the end!"
Murong Xiaotian let out a chuckle, turned around and left, leading the 18th New Regiment to the outside of the town.
After leaving Jinxiang Town, they ran all the way towards Heifengkou. When they were less than two miles away from Heifengkou, Murong Xiaotian ordered the troops to stop advancing.
In the wind and rain, low sounds of fighting could be heard. Apparently, the reinforced armored guard company was at war with the Moros.
"Brothers of the 18th Regiment, do you want to live?" Murong Xiaotian shouted angrily in front of the thousands of members of the regiment.
"think!"
He responded loudly and desperately.
But the other four companies responded feebly.
"What? You four companies don't want to live? Then wipe my neck now!" Murong Xiaotian roared again.
He glanced sideways, paused for a few seconds, and Murong Xiaotian's voice became extremely cold: "No one wiped it? That means that you all want to live. Since you want to live, give me some energy; I
Let me tell you, if you want to live, you have to fight tooth and nail. Only by completely wiping out the enemies in front and firmly guarding the black wind outlet is your only chance. Answer me louder, do you want to live?"
"Want to live!"
This time, the soldiers from the other four companies also raised their heads.
"What do you need to do if you want to survive?"
"Desperately!"
"Louder!"
"Desperately!"
"Louder!"
"Desperately, desperately..."
Under the leadership of the desperate company, the voices roared louder and louder. Every hysterical shout added a bit of courage, and every roar activated a bit of wildness.
The morale of the 18th New Regiment was completely mobilized.
"Set off!"
Murong Xiaotian waved his hand, and the team ran towards the black wind outlet again.
But when the scene in front of the black wind outlet came into view, everyone's heart began to beat wildly with tremors.
It seems that the Moros and the reinforced company of armored guards arrived at the Black Wind Pass almost at the same time. Perhaps, the Moros were even one step ahead.
Therefore, the armored guard reinforcement company was not able to seal the black wind outlet as expected.
About three companies of cavalry had already rushed out of the Black Wind Pass and started a fierce battle with the armored guard company.
In terms of numbers, the Moro people had an absolute advantage. Although the armored guard company was a strengthened company, it was still less than two companies in number. The force that the opponent rushed out was already twice theirs.
What's more important is that once a Moro man is killed in battle, the soldiers blocked in the Black Wind Pass can be replenished.
Fortunately, the armored guard company had a strong fighting capacity, and it was fully equipped with iron armor. Although the situation was very unfavorable, it was able to firmly hold the line and prevent the Moros from taking another step forward.
As a result, the two sides formed a war of attrition at the Black Wind Pass, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that the armored guard company would not be able to hold out for long.
The 18th New Regiment, whose morale was originally high, was shrouded in fear again after seeing this bloody scene. Several people, seeing this bloody scene for the first time, were still calm, talking and laughing freely.
?
Murong Xiaotian was fine. This kind of scene was commonplace, but he felt a little heavy.
Obviously, as he guessed, the strength of the Moro people is much higher than that of the NPCs in the 18th New Regiment. If measured by the player's level, the Moro people's level is 20 levels higher than the NPC soldiers of the regiment.
about.
After calming down his tangled heartbeat, Murong Xiaotian thought quickly, and rushing forward like this was definitely not an option.
Once the armored guard company's defense line is torn apart, relying on NPC recruits like them, the army will be completely defeated in an instant.
The final result was that the entire army was annihilated.
Damn it, if I was the only one left in the end, how could I accomplish this mission?
What is this mission called? The Contract of the Ancient God of War, right?
The word "ancient" is easy to understand. Isn't this the ancient continent? The God of War, can it be understood as the way to use soldiers? Does it mean that if you use these new soldiers to defeat the people of the Moro tribe on the opposite side, you will be worthy of using them?
The title of God? Can you complete this contract mission of the God of War?
Anyway, if these new recruits are done, I will probably be done with this mission too.
What to do?
No matter how loud you shout in normal times, it is completely different when you see the real battlefield, tmd, recruits are recruits, and they will never become veterans without experiencing the first battle.
What's more, they are still a group of new recruits who have not experienced any training. If they charge forward like this, they will definitely lose!
While thinking, he looked around, and with a thought in his mind, Murong Xiaotian had an idea. "Second company commander, third company commander, fourth company commander."
"arrive!"
"You three, take a few people over, go around from the bamboo forests on both sides to the battlefield of Heifengkou, and get me a dozen Moro soldiers. It's best if they are alive, but if they are not, they can be half-dead."
"yes!"
The three company commanders left quickly.
These few are all veterans dispatched from the Tianhu Army, and they all have the strength of fourth-level martial arts practitioners. It is natural to go fishing for straw and pick up some small gains.
"Six sons, take dozens of brothers and go to the bamboo forest to chop bamboo, as long as it is thicker than the mouth of the bowl."
"yes!"
Liuzi also took action immediately.
Exiting the Heifengkou, there is an open area with a width of more than 50 meters. On both sides of the open area, there are dense bamboo forests, extending forward along with the open area.
The further you go, the wider the open space becomes, like a trumpet shape.
After Liuzi and the others chopped the bamboo back, Murong Xiaotian immediately arranged for people to chop the bamboo into lengths of three to forty centimeters.
Starting from a place about a hundred meters away from the battlefield of Heifengkou, we started nailing to the ground in the open area. The nails in the front were unusually sparse. The further away from the Heifengkou, the denser the nails were.
Immediately, the bamboo fellers cut down the bamboo, the bamboo cutters chopped the bamboo, and the engineer shovels nailed the bamboo. In about ten minutes, it was completed.
The rainwater quickly filled the bamboo tubes nailed to the ground, and no trace of bamboo could be seen.
Although they were not far from the battlefield, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, visibility was very low, and the fighting on the battlefield was extremely fierce, so no one would notice them at all.
At this time, the company commanders also came back with more than a dozen Moro soldiers.
But none of them expected that Murong Xiaotian did something that was both unimaginable and shocking to them.
Each company was assigned two or three prisoners. All the soldiers lined up to assassinate the Moro soldiers. They also had to smear the blood on the Moro soldiers' wounds and smear their faces. Those who failed to do so would be punished on the spot.
How shocking it is to stab a living person with a gun and smear his face with his blood.
But after doing it, it was like crossing the threshold of death. All of a sudden, the fear just now completely disappeared.
The soldiers of the 18th New Regiment were transformed once again.
The Japanese were very good at this trick back then. To be honest, Murong Xiaotian naturally hated the Japanese to the core. Otherwise, he would not have completely destroyed the little Japanese game area in "Destiny".
But during the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, it was an indisputable fact that the Japs were very powerful. Even if the anti-Japanese drama showed the Japs in a complete mess, the real data showed that for every seven Chinese soldiers killed in battle, one Japs could be eliminated.
"For the first company, ambush in the bamboo forest on the left. For the second company, ambush in the bamboo forest on the right. When the third company and the fourth company launch an attack from the front, you will attack. Let every three soldiers form a combat team, and one person will hold a knife.
Shield, two people hold spears and shields, the one with the knife is for me to chop off the horse's legs, and the one with the spear is for me to stab people."
"yes!"
Liuzi and the commander of the second company set off immediately.
The commander of the first company was killed by Murong Xiaotian, and now the sixth son of the first company is temporarily acting as the company commander.
"Xiaowu, take the Dooming Company with you and take a detour from the bamboo forest to the Black Wind Pass. Wait for the Moro people to rush over and seize the Black Wind Pass to cut off their retreat."
Xiaowu, also a recruit who came out of Kekedo Town together with Murong Xiaotian, is now the captain of the company.
After everything was arranged, Murong Xiaotian said to the barbarian: "Big man, go inform Colonel Changsheng and ask him to lead the armored guard company to withdraw. Don't take the main road, walk along the bamboo forest."
"yes!"
The barbarians immediately ran along the bamboo forest towards the battlefield of Heifengkou...
At this time, Colonel Changsheng hated Murong Xiaotian so much that he gritted his teeth in his heart.
With his strength not lower than the seventh-level martial arts cultivation level, how could he not see the company commanders of the 18th New Regiment coming to conduct a sneak attack to capture prisoners?
This shows that the 18th New Regiment has arrived at the Black Wind Channel.
But this damn bastard hasn't come to support for a long time. What on earth does he want to do?
"Colonel Changsheng, the regimental commander orders you to lead the guard company and retreat along the bamboo forest immediately!"
"What? He ordered me? Go and tell your regiment commander that the 18th New Regiment will be put into the battlefield immediately, otherwise, military law will be engaged!"
