The Era of Generals

Chapter 87: Xichuan City

There was no more words for the next three days.

Although Ma Teng has the ability to increase the movement speed of his own cavalry troops, although Chen Ze's troops are mostly cavalry, it is not yet the luxury of all cavalry.

In order not to let the troops get out of touch, he could only march on the road honestly, and finally arrived at the designated location three days later.

It is worth mentioning that after eight hours, Xu Qing also passed the unknown system assessment and officially became another possessed host of Chen Ze.

Even though he passed the assessment, Xu Qing was still deeply at a loss for Chen Ze's theory of general soul. After all, the assessment was cloudy, and even Meng Yang and others who had also participated in it couldn't tell what they were assessing.

But no matter what, Xu Qing's loyalty increased to 92 points after the assessment.

After passing the assessment, Xu Qing is one of his own people. Taking advantage of the fact that there is nothing to do these few days, Chen Ze also let him feel the possession of the star. As a result, Xu Qing's admiration for Chen Ze has increased to a higher level!

Loyalty: 95.

On par with Meng Yang, taller than Guo Zi, almost equal to Li Quan'an!

Xichuan City.

It is only four days away from Xiyun City, and the two are neighbors to each other.

Back then Zheng Yuanlong led his troops straight through Xichuan City, even if there were still troops in the city, they would be swept away by Zheng Yuanlong, so when the poisonous mist army attacked, no one was sent to Xichuan for help.

This point can also be proved by Zheng Yuanlong's feedback after returning to Xiyun City. In fact, when Zheng Yuanlong passed through Xichuan City, the city's troops had already been exhausted, and less than one tenth of them stayed behind.

Unlike Xiyun City, which is very close to the border, although it is only a four-day journey, Xichuan City is rich in land and people, and its agricultural production capacity is extremely developed. The food produced is not only for the city's own use, but also for the surrounding areas including Xiyun City. of the four cities.

According to news, the owner of Xichuan City has revealed more than once that with the grain reserves of Xichuan City, it is no problem to supply Anluo Province with food for a month.

This is certainly an exaggeration, but it also shows from the side that Xichuan City is a large grain producer in Anluo Province.

From Zheng Yuanlong, Chen Ze knew that most of Xichuan City's troops had gone to support Bo'an City. Of course, because they had to be responsible for logistics and supplies, there would be more troops left, but they were only 20,000.

At present, it is estimated that it is less than 20,000. After such a long time, there is a high probability that Xichuan City has already transported grain to Bo'an City. Although the grain transport team can recruit people to complete it, the necessary defense is still necessary.

Even without considering the possible ambush of the Zhuyan Empire, the robbers running around in Anluo Province still have to be on guard.

The robbers don't care whether you destroy Bo'an City or lose Anluo Province. To them, it doesn't matter whether the land under their feet is surnamed Qingyang or Zhu Yan, as long as there is a place for them to rob money, food and women.

On the contrary, the turbulent situation made them feel like a fish in water. It can be foreseen that the officers and soldiers have no time to take care of them, so why don't they have a good time?

Therefore, the strength of food protection troops is necessary, and it must not be less.

Chen Ze could probably guess that out of the remaining 20,000 troops, only 10,000 are actually used to defend the city, and the other 10,000 soldiers will be divided into two teams, with 5,000 soldiers to guard a food delivery Troops, in two batches.

When the first batch arrives, they will turn back, and the second batch will take over. This cycle can ensure that there will always be food and grass on the road, and replenish the consumption of Bo'an City in time.

Chen Ze didn't know where the supply team had gone now, so he could only choose to go to Xichuan City first, and after he knew the movement of the supply team, he could make further effects.

Nishikawa is in sight.

Because the messenger was sent to Xichuan city on a light horse to inform the supply line in advance, when Chen Ze led the army and appeared in the sight of the defenders of the tower, there was no panic on the other side.

Xichuan City is located on a plain, and it is also a fertile land. This city is at least three times larger than Xiyun City. The moat was seven meters deep and easier to defend than Xiyun City.

The soldiers and horses of the two sides were separated by a moat. After the sergeant sent by Xichuan City checked the military plane token in Chen Ze's hand, the suspension bridge was lowered and the city gate was opened wide.

There was already a group of soldiers waiting inside the city gate. When Chen Ze led Meng Yang and others to cross the suspension bridge, he saw that the leading soldier standing respectfully had the same military rank as Xu Qing, and he presumably was the city defense commander.

"Huh?"

Seeing the soldier who was approaching with a smile on his face, Chen Ze didn't react, but Xu Qing, who was following him, was slightly surprised.

Chen Ze turned his head to look at him, before asking what's the matter, the opposite person came forward with a smile, and said loudly: "I think this is Mr. Chen, the villain is Feng Dalong, the commander of the city's defense force, and he has been waiting here for a long time. Already!"

Chen Ze had no choice but to return his salute first, only then did he see that the other party was a burly and majestic man with a beard and dark skin, subconsciously glanced at it with a magnifying glass, and couldn't help being startled.

The force value of this big man is so high, it is close to 50 points, and it is only a few points away from Bai Rao's force value.

As expected, it is indeed a big city of Xichuan, even the military commander of the city defense is so high. On the other hand, Xu Qing, who is also the commander of the city defense, only has about 20 points, which is about the same as that of Meng Yang and other Xuanjia elites.

This is actually understandable.

Who would want to be the leader of a soldier who can have a super high force value, and not seek greater development in the career of general?

But this big man... is he really willing?

Chen Ze was wondering, but Xu Qing couldn't help but took a step forward and asked, "I remember that the city defense commander here is Brother Zhou, where did he go?"

Then Feng Dalong took a look at Xu Qing's rank first, then smiled and said: "Brother Zhou was promoted by the city lord to be a partial general, and now he has led the troops to support Bo'an City, brother, I am so envious!"

When Xu Qing heard this, he was also very envious, and said: "Brother Zhou has always wanted to get a military rank, and this time he finally got his wish. I must congratulate him when he comes back!"

Feng Dalong laughed and said: "Naturally, when the war is over, let's have a good drink!"

promoted?

Chen Ze's heart twitched slightly, and it was good to leave a master with a force value of 50 points to promote a city defense commander to the front line?

Even if other people can't use a magnifying glass to see the specific value like Chen Ze, but seeing the appearance of this big man walking like a dragon and a tiger, he can know his strength. Could it be that the city lord is blind?

He didn't show his expression at the moment, but said indifferently: "Bingchang Feng, where is my messenger?"

Feng Dalong was surprised and said: "After that brother Huang came to Xichuan City to report the letter, he said he was in a hurry to report to you, sir, so he returned the same way. Why isn't he here?"

As he spoke, he looked around at Chen Ze's team.

Chen Ze's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "So that's the case, maybe the road went astray."

"In that case, please ask Bingchang Feng to lead the way. My brothers are tired from marching for days, so let's go to the barracks to rest for a while!"

"That's nature, that's nature!"

Feng Dalong nodded repeatedly, and immediately bowed to lead the way, leading Chen Ze and 20,000 soldiers into Xichuan City.
