It was almost 90 o'clock, and the sky had not yet dawned, and the school grounds were already chattering and bustling. Before Wang Hong got close, he heard Lu Jingou's voice like a duck's voice, "Hua Wenjue, it's such a big happy event that I have to treat my brothers to a meal.

Wang Hong approached and listened for a while before he realized that it turned out that Hua Wenjue had broken through to the acquired stage. Hua Wenjue was one year older than Wang Hong, and he was seventeen years old this year. To be able to break through to the acquired stage at the age of seventeen is considered a genius.

"Brother Hua is really a genius in martial arts. There are only a few seventeen-year-old acquired martial artists in the entire academy." Li Xiaoya clenched her fists, her face full of admiration.

"I'll feel ashamed if everyone talks about it again. Wang Hong broke through to the day after tomorrow at the age of thirteen and didn't call himself a genius. If I call myself a genius, it will make people laugh out loud." Hua Wenjue quickly explained modestly.

"I came to the day after tomorrow after taking the elixir. It's not counted." Before Wang Hong finished speaking, the school grounds sounded the horn of "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo". There was an instant silence on the campus.

After the horn sounded three times, Old Mo Feng still appeared right in front of the team on time. After the points were counted, Old Mo Feng announced an important notice.

Ten years ago, the State of Qin sent 100,000 troops to destroy the State of Wei, and the State of Wei was reduced to slaves from the princes to the civilians.

Five years ago, Qin State sent 100,000 troops to attack the border of Chu State. Chu State led 100,000 troops by the general Qu Wu to confront the Qin soldiers on the border. During this period, countless battles of various sizes occurred, each with its own outcome.

Half a year ago, Qin State suddenly increased its troops by 500,000, and the border of Chu State was finally broken by Chu State after holding on for five months. Tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians of Chu were killed or injured.

Therefore, the state of Chu issued an imperial edict to enlist all military academies across the country who are over fifteen years old to join the army. He rushed to the border within three days to participate in the battle against Qin.

Everyone was in an uproar when they heard the news. There are those who are gearing up, there are those who are eager to try, and there are those who are worried.

The people of the state of Chu have always been brave and warlike, and they rejoice when they hear war. They are proud of their achievements on the battlefield and ashamed of being cowardly and fearful of war. Even if they die in battle, their relatives can get a large pension, which is enough for the rest of their lives.

What's more, the students are all hot-blooded youngsters who are full of vigor. Soon, the public sentiment was high, and they all expressed their intention to join the army to kill the enemy and make meritorious service on the battlefield.

Wang Hong originally planned to go to the Qingxu Mountains to search for the fairy fate after two years of training, but now that the edict comes out, if he refuses to obey, he will be punished as a deserter, wanted by the whole country, and caught is a death penalty.

With Wang Hong's current strength, if he fights against others alone, looking at the entire Great Chu Kingdom, it is difficult to meet an opponent. But in the end, two fists are hard to beat with four hands. If he encounters a well-trained army, only one or two hundred people can surround him and kill him.

If he escapes, he will definitely not be able to reach the foot of Qingxu Mountain, and he will be intercepted and killed along the way.

What's more, Chu State is his home country, and Qingyang Academy has also trained him for three years. Nowadays, when the country is in crisis, everyone has the responsibility and obligation to fight for it. If you leave here, I'm afraid you will feel uneasy.

What's more, with Wang Hong's current strength, as long as he is not alone in the enemy's formation, ordinary people can't kill him.

Even though I thought so, I still had to make enough preparations. If the boat capsized in the gutter, it would not be worthwhile to die on the battlefield. He still has a wonderful life, and he will cultivate immortality in the future. I don't want to fight with a group of unknown soldiers on the battlefield right now.

Wang Hong went to the wine shop last time and bought a thousand catties of wine. In the past two years, he brewed some medicinal wine one after another, and used up some. There are still several hundred catties in the space. Adding this one thousand catties should be enough. Wang Hong picked some seventy or eighty-year-old ginseng and purple lucidum in the space to make medicinal wine.

Nowadays, a large area of ​​Bai Yuzhi, which is rarely seen outside, grows in the space, and the earliest bred batch has reached the age of 50 years. Wang Hong picked some and made a healing medicine called "Baiyu Xuming Pill".

I also picked some Bai Yuzhi that was 20 or 30 years old to prepare some Bai Yu San. Others such as "Dragon and Tiger Pills" and other kinds of Wang Hong prepared some as long as they could be used.

Originally, Wang Hong wanted to get a set of armor, but he didn't find it in too short a time.

A team of more than 1,000 people from the northern part of Chu State arrived outside Jingzhou City. After three months of trekking, the team from Qingyang College finally arrived at their destination.

Among the more than 1,000 people in his group, only half of them were combat soldiers, and there were only more than 800 people. Eight hundred civilians were temporarily recruited from Qingyang County to be responsible for transporting grain and grass, building bridges and paving roads and other chores.

Eight hundred civilians seem to be a lot, but in fact the task is heavy. If each soldier consumes one catty of grain every day, the three-month ration will be nearly one hundred catties. It is impossible for a soldier to carry a hundred catties of grain on the battlefield, and in addition to the food consumption required by the peasants themselves, in this way, each peasant needs to transport nearly two hundred catties of grain on average, and is also responsible for the delivery of various other materials. . This is the case with war, which is a huge consumption for either side.

They were originally going to the border to join the war, but they got news on the way that several cities on the border had been captured by the Qin army.

In the several cities captured by the Qin army, all the defenders died in battle. Every time the Qin army captured a city, they slaughtered it for three days. The rest were filled as slaves, and there were countless mourners and scattered wives and children.

Wang Hong and the others received an order on the way, ordering them to change their original route and go to Jingzhou City to join other reinforcements.

At this time, there were not many troops stationed outside the city of Jingzhou, and it was not that they came too early. According to the inquired news, the Qin army's offensive was very fierce, and the reinforcements who came earlier were sent to other cities to help defend the city.

They lead a team to teach Feng Li. Old Mo Feng has already entered the city to meet the general. When Old Mo Feng returns, he will probably be assigned to other cities to defend the city.

Taking advantage of the free time, the team hurriedly buried the pot to cook. Wang Hong is currently serving as the head of the department, and there are nine soldiers under his command. The position of the chief of the army is actually useless and has no autonomy, just like a soldier.

At this time, Wang Hong and a few soldiers each served a bowl of porridge, squatted on the ground and ate two steamed buns with chopsticks forked. They still had a full meal on the day of the three-month march. Warriors have a lot of food, and ordinary beginner warriors can eat a bucket of rice a day. The amount of food currently distributed is far from enough for warriors.

After the meal, Wang Hong sat alone in the corner, took out a piece of dried meat from his arms, and slowly bit and chewed it. This jerky is Wang Hong's own dry food, which is steamed with beast meat and medicinal ingredients until cooked, and then mashed together into a puree, with salt and spices added. Then press them into palm-sized slices, sprinkle with cooked sesame seeds, then dry the water, and bake them into golden yellow jerky.

Take one tablet every day, after refining, it can hold up to ten days of practice, it is delicious and still very hungry. It's a pity that there was not much time to make.

It didn't take long for Feng Laomo to come back, and Feng Laomo got an official position as a school lieutenant. He was originally from the army and had some connections in the army.

The general ordered them to join the other four colleges and go to Huju City, a hundred miles away, to help defend the city.

The army set off that day and headed for Huju City.

The city of Huju City is not big, with only 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers and civilians. But it stands between two mountains, the terrain is dangerous, like a gate of Chu State. As long as Huju City is captured, Qin's army can drive straight into the territory of Chu from here.

For such a strategic location, more people should be sent, but the terrain of Huju City is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the city is too small, no matter how many troops are sent, they can only use the tactics of fueling.

However, what Wang Hong and the others didn't know was that before them, more than 5,000 people were sent to Huju City, and they were attacked by the Qin army day and night, causing too many casualties, so they were sent to reinforce.
