"Bao Yuan, if you can wake up in half a year, I'll pay you back. If you can't catch up with the Northern Expedition, you can catch up with the Southern Expedition. But if you wait until two years later to be of use to me, then the day lily will be too cold!"
With some random thoughts, the young man asked Xiao Bai, who was outside to relax and chew Xuan Jing, to wake him up at sunrise, and then fell asleep in the colorful sky and clouds...
The next morning, the autumn sun was shining brightly.
The shopkeepers of major restaurants in the city personally led the team, so that it could be assembled in the school grounds early.
Behind them, there was a long line of carriages filled with low-grade Mystical Beast dried meat, which could last for ten days for 25,000 troops.
When doing business with the young commander of the Knight Cavalry Army, these merchants do not dare to be sneaky in the slightest. Not only are the quantities given sufficient, but the quality is also guaranteed.
With a wave of his hand, Chen Shen put all the dried meat in the carriage into his bag, and the whole army decisively pulled out and continued to advance north.
…
When the army arrived thirty miles north of the city, Chen Shen once again proposed to let deputy general Li Dezhi lead the army.
Unexpectedly, this time Li Dezhi did not obey the order immediately: "General! I don't dare to ask you to hunt mysterious beasts for us anymore."
The other captains also agreed: "Yes, General."
"If you work hard all the way, young marshal, if something goes wrong when you go to the front line in the future, your subordinates will be blamed for their deaths!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you disobeying orders?" Chen Shenxing stared.
He knew that these people had good intentions, but the problem was... hunting mysterious beasts by himself was not only to reward the soldiers, but also to upgrade himself! But this was too unbelievable to explain clearly.
"this……"
Li Dezhi rolled his eyes and said firmly: "If the Young Marshal has made up his mind, we are willing to go hunting with the Young Marshal!"
"Yes! I am willing to go with the young commander!"
"Come with you!" The young man laughed and scolded: "Golden Girl and Yin Lao and I rely on the extraordinary foot strength of our mounts. Even if we go into the forest to hunt mysterious beasts, we can still catch up with you."
"But if you go with me, you will definitely delay the march!"
He thought of a high-sounding reason: "You know, I once issued a military order in front of Your Majesty to defeat the Yi for three months."
"If you delay one more day on the road, it will be more difficult to complete the mission on time. Are you trying to make me lose my head?"
"I don't dare!" Everyone hurriedly clasped their fists and lowered their heads in fear.
"Hehehe, okay, I know you have good intentions. Don't worry, I am a tough guy. I can't even defeat a few mysterious beasts after killing them!"
"Damn it, how many of the hundreds or dozens of spirit-level mysterious beasts can be called just a few?" Everyone couldn't help but feel ashamed, but thought that this was Chen Shen deliberately speaking so easily in order to ease their hearts.
In fact, Chen Shen is really not tired: he is not fighting alone.
There are twenty-one mysterious master level puppets and red rabbits, plus Linger, and Shun Lao helps him clean up the remaining beasts behind him. It is really not difficult for this young man to kill a hundred spiritual level mysterious beasts.
At this time, the second elder Chen Qibing came out and persuaded: "Young Master, I also think there is no need for you to run around like this."
"Before leaving the city, didn't you buy a batch of dried meat for us for ten days?"
"There are towns to stay and supply along the way north. The ten days of low-grade dried meat, plus the food and grass given by your Majesty, will be enough to support the March War even if you go beyond the Great Wall. Why do you have to work too hard?
Woolen cloth?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone nodded.
Only Chen Shen had a reason to do it.
He shook his head slowly: "How can ten days of Xuanshi dried meat be enough?"
Then, he suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh, by the way, don't tell me I've forgotten! I left the grain and grass that I brought with me to feed the horses, and the dry food was sold directly to the towns we passed, and the money I earned was saved for
The officers and men discussed the rewards."
"Ah? This..."
Everyone felt that the young commander's way of thinking was really...enough that they couldn't keep up!
But Chen Shen said sternly: "You followed me to the battlefield and shed your blood. I have the obligation to let you eat well and drink spicy food when not in battle!"
"On the way north, I will hunt mysterious beasts every day and exchange them for ordinary-level mysterious food for everyone in the towns I pass through."
"Before you step out of the northern frontier, I will get three months' worth of Xuanshi dried meat for you, so that you can eat Xuanshi every day. It is very useful for restoring your physical strength and warming your Dantian meridians.
benefit."
"It's settled! This is an order!"
When Chen Shen finished speaking, every soldier's face was filled with excitement and emotion.
Chen Shen's attitude was firm and he even set the tone in the name of an order. As a result, the senior officers of the Knight Cavalry Army and the Bloody Guards no longer dared to say a word and all respectfully accepted the order.
The young man followed the old rules and left Xiao Bai as a "locator" while he took Shun Lao and Miao Ling with him and left...
Xuan Beast Mountain Forest, Central Territory.
Three people, three mounts, and twenty-one fleshless killing machines brought chaos to the entire forest!
In the past, apart from hunters, it was mostly mysterious beasts that hurt people.
Almost every city has been invaded by the beast tide. The only difference is that the damage caused by the invasion may be large or small, and the cycle of the beast tide outbreak may be long or short.
In fact, not only the Great Xia Kingdom, but also all human countries were devastated by the chaos of the beast tide, but in the end they were unable to organize a strong counterattack force to fight back.
First, because the Mysterious Beasts mostly live in deep mountains and old forests, they naturally occupy geographical advantages. It is too difficult to send troops to kill them on a large scale. It may be possible to lose soldiers and generals in exchange for it, but it will only bring a painless battle to the Mysterious Beasts.
A little lesson.
The second reason is that no matter how great the damage done by the beast tide, it will eventually dissipate.
Those beasts showing their teeth and claws will not directly endanger the rise or fall of a country's political power.
Therefore, for rulers, the tide of beasts is far less terrifying than the wars that break out between humans.
They would rather organize a powerful force to invade other countries and defend their own country, rather than use this force to deal with mysterious beasts on a large scale.
But now, Chen Shen and his small team have brought unprecedented "catastrophes" to the mysterious beasts——
"Ding! Tong San successfully killed a low-level spiritual beast, and the host gained 12,000 experience points."
"Ding! The human sword guard successfully killed a high-grade spiritual beast, and the host gained 41,000 experience points."
"Ding! Red Rabbit successfully killed a mid-level spiritual beast, and the host gained 22,500 experience points."
"bite……"
Chen Shen gained a lot of experience.
Ling'er and Shunlao are not far behind. With the improvement of their riding combat skills, the two of them can now stand alone in the spirit-level beast zone.
For the next few days, Chen Shen spent his days eating, sleeping, and playing beans... uh no, it should be the day of refining elixirs, making talismans, and killing mysterious beasts.
In just a few days, the boy's personal experience gauge and the team's material reserves have skyrocketed...
