Not long after, a group of people came from the direction of the military camp. Riding at the front was a general with a short beard, and with him came several generals from the camp.
This short-bearded general's surname is Fan, and his given name is Xingwang. Speaking of which, his ancestors were from the Sheng Kingdom, but his grandfather's generation settled in the Muyue Kingdom. Not only Fan Xingwang, but also his father's generation were all in the Muyue Kingdom.
born.
Fan Xingwang is the commander-in-chief of the Luna Army, and he is also the general responsible for guarding the Qingyuan Pass. It is no exaggeration to say that without Fan Xingwang, Qingyuan Pass would have been lost long ago, and the capital at the rear, Haoyue City, would have been occupied by the Pitz people.
Fan Xingwang and a group of people rode over. When they were about ten feet away from Ahudala, they easily turned over and dismounted, and then everyone knelt on one knee in front of Ahudala.
"See Your Highness the Second Prince." Fan Xingwang cupped his fists and saluted with a calm and powerful tone.
"Finally, I will see you, Your Highness, the Second Prince." All the generals around him also shouted in unison.
With a friendly smile, Ahudala immediately stepped forward and made a gesture of dragging his hands, saying: "General Fan, there is no need to be polite, get up quickly, get up."
"Thank you, Your Highness, the Second Prince." Fan Xingwang thanked him and led the generals to stand up.
Immediately afterwards, Fan Xingwang asked: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, why are you here today?"
Ahudala said: "General Fan, let me introduce you to an expert."
While speaking, Ahudala looked at Chai Yan beside him.
When Fan Xing looked over, he had already seen the four Chai Yans in Taoist uniforms. When he heard the second prince talking about it, he asked politely: "Second prince, this is..."
Ahudala introduced: "General Fan, this is the Taoist Priest of Immortality from Sheng Kingdom... Taoist Priest, this is the commander-in-chief of the Moon Army, Fan Xingwang General Fan."
Fan Xingwang immediately clasped his fists and said hello: "Master Changsheng, you are polite."
"Heavenly Lord of Infinite Blessings..." Chai Yan also made a seal and returned the greeting: "General Fan is polite."
Then, Ahudala introduced Jimo Qiao, Cheng Jiu, and Yu Tie to Fan Xingwang, and both parties greeted them politely.
Fan Xingwang didn't quite understand why Ahudala brought several Taoist priests here, so he asked: "Excuse me, the second prince, if Taoist Changsheng and his party came to Qingyuan Pass for something important?"
Ahudala said seriously: "General Fan, this is not a place for silence. Why not go to the camp first, sit down and talk slowly."
Fan Xingwang immediately said: "Okay. Please mount the second prince, and I will lead the way for you."
Afterwards, everyone got on their horses and followed Fan Xingwang as he rode towards the camp.
After almost a cup of tea, Chai Yan saw an empty martial arts field and a large tent camp area behind the martial arts field.
It was time for training at this time, and the martial arts field was densely packed with soldiers. According to visual inspection, there were about two to three hundred people.
These soldiers were not wearing armor, but were wearing uniforms. They were lined up in a square formation, holding spears in their hands, and were practicing diligently following the commander's call.
"One!" "Hoo!"
"Two!" "Ha!"
"Three!" "Drink!"
Every time the commander shouted, the soldiers would wave their spears and perform a move. The movements seemed quite neat, but the shouts still lacked some momentum.
As the horse in front slowed down, Jimo Qiao also took the opportunity to move to Chai Yan's side.
Jimo Qiao looked at the soldiers in the martial arts field and asked Chai Yan: "Is this the Moon God Army? Why is it different from what they said?"
From what Ahudala and Pang Zhenbei said before, Jimo Qiao felt that the Luna Army should be a strong and brave army with good fighting skills and well-equipped equipment, but now it was very different from what he thought.
Chai Yan glanced at Jimo Qiao and said calmly: "Of course it's different. These are new recruits. Can't you tell?"
Jimo Qiao was stunned, and quickly looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but said: "You...are really a new recruit..."
At this time, Ahudala turned back and said: "Miss Mo Yu, these new soldiers have just been recruited into the camp, and they still need a lot of training. As for the soldiers of the Moon God Army, most of them are at the Qingyuan Pass.
Stay stationed, let's keep moving forward, we'll see it soon."
"Oh." Jimo Qiao responded seemingly calmly.
When Ahudala turned her head, she immediately curled her lips and shrank her neck, her face couldn't help but look a little embarrassed.
After everyone walked for a while, Ahudala asked Fan Xingwang: "General Fan, have you only recruited so many soldiers in the past month or so?"
When this matter was mentioned, Fan Xingwang looked a little depressed, and nodded helplessly: "Yes, these were recruited only after the military salary was increased. Their quality varies from good to bad. After the preliminary training, it will be good if 30% can barely enter the Moon God Army."
Ahudala was surprised: "Only 30%? So little?"
Fan Xingwang sighed and said: "Second Prince, it is really not easy to recruit new soldiers nowadays. The people all think that the country of Piz is too powerful. Even if we can resist here for a while, we cannot resist for a lifetime, so many people
Everyone thinks that if you become a soldier, you will die in vain..."
"madness!"
Ahudala became angry when he heard this, and said angrily: "These people don't even think about it. If the Qingyuan Pass is really broken, and the Pitz people come in and kill them, on the day when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, their
Can life still go on?"
Fan Xingwang did not answer this, but shook his head slightly and sighed secretly in his heart.
After riding past the martial arts field, a group of people arrived at the entrance of the military camp.
When they entered the military camp, they encountered a problem. Over there was Jimo Qiao. Because she was a woman, Fan Xingwang did not allow her to enter the camp.
When Jimo Qiao saw that he was being treated differently, he immediately wanted to step forward to argue, but was pulled back by Chai Yan.
"Senior brother, what are you doing? I'm going to tell them clearly. Why aren't you letting me in?" Jimo Qiao said angrily.
Chai Yan whispered: "Why are you so anxious? The second prince is here, he will speak for us."
Sure enough, by this time Ahudala had already pulled Fan Xingwang aside and had a private discussion with him.
"No, Second Prince, there have been rules in the army since ancient times, women are not allowed to enter the camp!" Fan Xing wondered.
Ahudala fought hard and said: "General Fan, Taoist Priest Changsheng and his party came all the way to help us. It would be unjustifiable if we do not allow Miss Mo Yu to enter the camp."
"Help us?" Fan Xingwang was suddenly surprised and asked without understanding: "Second Prince, what is needed most on Qingyuan Pass now is soldiers and manpower. Forgive Fan for being stupid, but I really don't understand how these four Taoist priests can help.
Why are you praying to us? If it is to chant sutras and pray, as people of the Muyue Kingdom, we should also be praying to the Haoyue God."
Ahudala frowned and looked at Fan Xing for a while before sighing: "General Fan, please come here..."
Fan Xingwang was startled for a moment, then he tilted his upper body slightly and brought his ear close to Ahudala's mouth.
Afterwards, Ahudala began to whisper in Fan Xingwang's ear. Gradually, a look of surprise and confusion appeared in Fan Xingwang's eyes.
"Second Prince, are all these things you said true?" Fan Xingwang looked at Ahudala in disbelief.
Ahudala turned around and called: "General Pang, please come here."
When Pang Zhenbei trotted over, Ahudala said: "General Fan, General Pang witnessed the whole thing with his own eyes. If you don't believe it, you can ask him."
Fan Xingwang looked at Pang Zhenbei very seriously and asked in a deep voice: "General Pang, is that martial arts holy water really that magical?"
As soon as these words came out, Pang Zhenbei immediately recalled the scene in the martial arts arena yesterday. Although he didn't want to recall it, he still frowned and nodded: "Seriously!"
