"Boss, what are you going to do? Soldiers from other villages don't dare to come to our place now, for fear of being targeted."
Because there is a serious shortage of personnel in the camp, the superiors turn a blind eye to this poaching behavior and adopt a default attitude.
Liu Hai has also tried to recruit some people from other villages in the past two days, but all failed. He was also discovered by other village chiefs, and now he has become a street rat.
"Then look for it from outside. You guys have to calm down your subordinates. Don't let me recruit them all and something happens here again."
Niu Xiaosheng planned to ask Dongmei and Chundai for help. In this way, he could not only ensure his combat power, but also ensure the loyalty of his subordinates, and avoid raising a group of white-eyed wolves.
But as soon as he spread the news, a military order was delivered to him.
"Support Kiriyama Castle?"
"That's right, Tongshan Pass has been lost, and the army of monsters and barbarians is besieging Tongshan City. The military situation is urgent. Your Excellency orders you to leave within half an hour."
"But our village is not full yet."
Niu Xiaosheng knew that the great man the messenger was talking about was not Army Commander Zhou Lang, but Army Marquis Wu Qi, and Wu Qi was Zhou Lang's confidant.
"This has nothing to do with me. Military orders are like mountains. The commander of the cattle camp must not make mistakes."
After the messenger finished speaking, he left directly.
Regarding the loss of Tongshan Pass, Fan Rumeng also mentioned it to him yesterday. As for the reasons for the loss, it remains to be discussed. He only knows that the people responsible for garrisoning Tongshan Pass are generals from the Zhou family.
There were so many military orders that Niu Xiaosheng had to leave immediately even if he didn't want to. Otherwise, just one person who disobeyed the military orders would be enough to eat him up.
It's a pity that his reward has not been received yet. Otherwise, if he were promoted to one level and became a military commander, this military order would naturally not be able to affect him.
According to the rules of the Chu army, only generals above the rank of captain can issue orders to the military commanders and mobilize more than 500 troops.
After packing up, Niu Xiaosheng took his men to the Munitions Department to collect the rations on the way.
"What a coincidence. General Sun has just sent people to empty out the remaining grain. The next batch of grain may not arrive until tonight. Now this is all left in the granary."
The civil servant in charge of this matter looked at Niu Xiaosheng and said apologetically.
"What did you say!"
Liu Hai's face darkened, he grabbed the clerk's lapel and pulled it up, "I think you did it on purpose. How can this half bag of semolina be enough?"
"What are you doing? Let go, someone is here~"
The official's expression changed, and he made a sound like a slaughtering pig, and a group of soldiers rushed over immediately.
"Let him go."
Niu Xiaosheng took a deep look at the clerk and said to Liu Hai.
Before returning to camp, he was mentally prepared to be tripped up. At this time, he made a big fuss in the Munitions Department, but fell into someone else's trap.
Liu Hai let go of his hands, his face full of anger. Normally, he would not be so rude. During these days, he had been holding back a lot of anger and could not vent it, so he inevitably became a lot more irritable.
"let's go."
Niu Xiaosheng didn't take the half bag of semolina and left directly.
"Bah! What the hell."
After they walked away, the clerk spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm, looking like a villain who had succeeded.
After leaving the military camp, Niu Xiaosheng walked slowly along the official road towards Tongshan City.
In addition to their group of scouts, there is also a team of 20,000 people supporting Tongshan City. The commander of the troops is General Sun. As scouts, they need to set off first to explore the path for this team.
Not long after Niu Xiaosheng left the military camp, a eunuch wearing a green robe slowly came to the scout camp with a reward decree.
Captain Cao Yu, who had just returned from the Chinese army camp, came with Zhou Lang and others to greet him.
Even though the eunuch in green robe is not of high rank, he holds the imperial edict and represents the current Holy One. No one dares to disrespect him.
"Which of you is Niu Xiaosheng? Let him come out to receive the order."
The eunuch in green robe pinched the orchid finger and said sharply.
Cao Yu turned around and looked around, but found no sign of Niu Xiaosheng, so he turned his attention to Zhou Lang.
Zhou Lang coughed and took a step forward, "The angel is a step too late. Chief Niu has already been ordered to go to Tongshan City."
The eunuch frowned and said with a stern face: "Before our departure, we clearly sent someone to inform us that Niu Xiaosheng was waiting for orders in the camp. Why was he still sent out?"
"We have not received any information about this. We hope the angels will find out."
Zhou Lang said with a confused look on his face.
"How is this possible? That's all, that's all, it's bad luck for our family."
The green-robed eunuch turned around and left angrily.
"Greetings, angel."
Zhou Lang said loudly in the direction the eunuch left, with a smile on his face.
"Zhou Sima has good tricks."
Cao Yu turned around and looked at Zhou Lang coldly.
"Why did Mr. Xiaowei say this?"
Zhou Lang's face was full of astonishment.
"snort."
Cao Yu snorted coldly, turned and left.
Niu Xiaosheng, who had already set off, did not know what was happening in the camp. He led two people and horses all the way north along the official road. He did not walk very fast and looked back from time to time.
After walking for about half an hour, yellow dust rose up on the official road behind me, and then I heard the dull sound of horse hooves.
"Head, it seems some cavalry are coming."
Liu Hai looked behind him, rode up to Niu Xiaosheng and said.
Niu Xiaosheng reined in the horse's head, with a hint of joy in his eyes. Sure enough, it didn't take long before he saw the figures of Dongmei and Chundai, and behind them was an armored elite cavalry.
"Xu~"
The two women reined in the horse's head in front of Niu Xiaosheng. Chun Dai raised her chin slightly and said with a smile: "Are you surprised?"
"What a surprise. How did you get this cavalry in such a short period of time?"
Niu Xiaosheng's face was full of surprise. His eyes fell on the cavalry and found that all the cavalry were actually first-level warriors, and five of them had even reached the second level!
Dongmei smiled slightly and said, "Young Master prepared this for you before retreating. It's just that it took them a long time to come all the way from Qingzhou Dao No. 1 Palace. You are lucky. They just arrived and we received your
letters, so I caught up with them."
"This cavalry is called the Dragon and Tiger Cavalry. There are five hundred cavalry in total. The young master imitated the dragon and tiger Taoist soldiers of Daoyigong. Although they are far inferior to the dragon and tiger Taoist soldiers, as long as they put up a dragon and tiger formation, even if
Even against masters of the five realms, I can ensure you escape safely."
Chun Dai said, handing a flag flag to Niu Xiaosheng, "This is the flag of the Dragon and Tiger Formation, please keep it."
Niu Xiaosheng took the flag and felt the faint evil aura floating on the flag, feeling slightly shaken.
"Okay, time is running out, let's let the little master master the dragon and tiger formation as soon as possible, so as not to encounter the enemy when he is not familiar with the formation. If he messes up the formation, he will be in trouble."
Dongmei reminded.
Although they were not in the military camp, through the Chen family's intelligence network, they already knew about the conflict between Niu Xiaosheng and the Zhou family.
Chuntai nodded and pointed forward, "Little Master, there happens to be an open space ahead. Let's go there first and practice."
"good."
Niu Xiaosheng nodded.
After riding their horses to the open space, the two women first told Niu Xiaosheng the tips and precautions for using the formation, and then started practicing.
