The Dragon aru Xian’s ideal areneral, had to explain strategy

But the Dragon King had asked hioing to try to do that

Ten co’s ht that the Left General was about to train his troops for the upcou Xian had gradually gained the recognition of all the soldiers The Five Kingdoms soldiers who had been under his command were very surprised that he was still powerful He had not shown it when he besieged the capital of Stone Kingdou Xian had become very famous, and it had all started with a bet

When he was first appointed Left General, he hadn’t had any authority Besides, he had needed to take precautions against the swordse theht have given hi Fu After losing his left arm, he couldn’t even defeat the ned hiu Xian still felt he had to rely on hi the barracks, he would have to worry about his safety How could he train and command soldiers?

The swordsmen of Great Snow their attitude could he win the support of the whole arree that it would only take ten days to train 100 fresh recruits into qualified soldiers who could defeat the sau Xian carefully considered his objectives before choosing Long Xiaoshi+, the chief of Danduo Peak He undoubtedly had the highest status a the swordsmen of Great Snowmountain The former chief of Greatsword Peak had been killed The new chief was an inexperienced agent, who had a bad teu Xian defeated him, he wouldn’t offend too many people

The swordse and conceitedly cut their numbers in half They claimed that they could beat 100 fresh recruits led by the Left General with only 50 soldiers

The gamble attracted the interest of the whole army More than half of them bet on it Most of them bet on the swordsmen Those who bet on the Left General didn’t actually believe in hi him

Ten days passed quickly The harassment of the killers froht hat occupied everyone’s mind Therefore, several ue, but they were still i unnecessary casualties, all the weapons were ht, the weapons were covered with lime Once hit in the head or chest, one had to withdraw from the battlefield

They hadn’t recruited coe scale, so the so-called “fresh recruits” were actually 100 slaves fro on weapons and had never fought in the battlefield In the eyes of the swordsmen from the Great Snowmountain, they were too fresh to win

In order to ensure fairness, the two parties agreed in advance that fresh recruits could not use crossbows or javelins, and the swordsmen could not attack froes

Fifty swordsmen stood in a loose shape; the chief of Greatsword Peak stood in the middle; and others lined up on both sides Their only coht to hold comfortably

On the opposite side, 100 slave soldiers stood in three rows side by side, with various weapons in their hands

The first row of soldiers held large shi+elds that were half a man tall Their shi+elds were closely linked to one another to form a wooden ith no other weapons

The second row of soldiers only held short-sabers that were inserted in their belts They never pulled them out

The third row of soldiers held pikes that were alu Xian had used very strict means to train the 100 people In addition, he had actually beheaded two soldiers who disobeyed orders But few people believed this ruan

Fifty swordsmen, led by the chief of Greatsword Peak, shouted out and charged forward to defeat the enemy (and therefore win the bet)

One hundred slave soldiers stood still, waiting for orders

Dugu Xian didn’t join in the battle himself Instead, he stayed behind the troops with a drummer at his side

With the first sound of the druentle pace

The second druhtly faster than before

The two troops met

Fifty swords real, heavy swords, it would have been enough to split several soldiers and their shi+elds

The slave soldiers teareat pressure, but not scattered The second row of soldiers pressed hard against the back of the front row, relying on the strength of two men to withstand the swords However, the wooden swords in their hands were so blunt that they didn’t win right away
