C41 (2/2)
Xiu'er stood there and stared at the direction of where Madame Fu had left. After an incense of time, she turned and said to Chen Chu: ”We should also go.” Only then did Chen Chu nod towards the Apprentice Knight behind him. ”Let's go.”
And at a distance of over a hundred meters away from them, the Madame Fu bowed towards the back of the Xiu'er, ”Please return victorious. The hopes of my clan depends on you.” Behind Madame Fu, there were a few white foxes that she worshipped as well.
With Madame Fu in front, strong man's speed couldn't help but increase a bit. Qu Feizhi led his team and increased his speed at the same time. Originally, it would have taken them two and a half days to travel, but they only used a day and a half, which was twice as fast.
Qu Feizhi took in a deep breath, and then, he slowly exhaled. After that, he raised his arms high and roared towards the sky, ”Mo Qiu! I'm coming! ”
Yes, he was here, they were here!
The Fire Phoenix Empire had been established for more than a thousand years, but there had never been a single soldier that set foot on the ground of the Moqiu State. From a psychological perspective, the citizens of Fire Phoenix Empire had a shadow over their Moqiu State and the Moqiu Soldier, a shadow that they would never be able to defeat.
And now, the three young generals of Xiu'er's side, Qu Feizhi, Chen Chu, and strong man, had crossed what was known as the Heaven's Chasm, and became the first army of Fire Phoenix Nation to stand on the Moqiu's grounds! There was no need to ask for the results of the battle. Just this one task alone was enough to leave their names in the annals of history!
The place where the Wulian Mountain Range met was an endless prairie. Standing on this prairie, one's mood would be incomparably comfortable and their heroic spirit would rise. The cavalry was like dragons, the infantry was like tigers, the 900 odd soldiers lined up valiantly, waiting for their commander to give the first order to enter Moqiu.
She rode her horse and looked at the soldiers under her command. After pausing for a while, she slowly spoke, ”First of all, congratulations to everyone, you are the first batch of soldiers in the history of the Empire who stepped onto the Moqiu. I don't know if there are any successors, but you must be people who have never been here before! Congratulations to everyone! ”
The soldiers cheered like thunder. If it was said that they were not convinced and did not understand this girl in front of them as the main officer, then after getting along with her for a period of time, they had a better impression of the Xiu'er.
If it wasn't for her perseverance and decisiveness, Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi would have still been counting the corn kernels in the barn. If not for her insistence, why would that stubborn old fogey Shi Donglai decide to use his Wulian Border Army to fake his defense? If not for her insistence, how could Madame Fu, who could summon hundreds of Demonic Beast with a wave of her hand, open up a path?
Although Lord Xiu was a girl, many of the men could not do what she did! If she followed this kind of main general, she might really be able to do something with her Moqiu!
Xiu'er allowed the crowd to wantonly cheer. After a long while, when the cheers slowly died down, she opened her mouth and said, ”Everyone, congratulations. I still have to remind everyone. Why did we have to come here after so much trouble? On the way here, we lost twelve of our comrades, some because they couldn't withstand the soil and water, some because they were attacked by Demonic Beast, and some because they were injured due to fall, why are they doing this? ” After saying that, the Xiu'er paused for a moment, and then pointed towards the south with her right hand. ”I don't know how you all feel at the moment, but my heart is filled with fighting spirit. Because I know that there are still commoners suffering from the poison there, as well as our comrades fighting with the Demonic Beast Soldier s of the Moqiu State! For them, I want to fight! Some people have not set foot on this land, but their hearts are with us! I implore all of you, for the sake of the citizens of Fire Phoenix Empire, for the sake of honor and for the sake of being my comrades, please come and fight with me! ”
From Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi's position, nearly a thousand Empire's soldiers lowered their heads towards the Xiu'er. Their red and white feathers fluttered like wheat in the wind, and their voices rolled like thunder, ”Honor is my life! I am willing to fight with you! ”
”Honor is our life!” This sentence, which had accompanied every single Red Camp warrior since the first day they had entered the Imperial Military Academy, was now bestowed with an unlimited meaning. The glory of aristocratic families, the honor of warriors, the pride of knights, everything was borne by these words.
”Honor is our life!” To the Wulian Border Army soldiers under strong man's command, this sentence was equally meaningful. They distanced themselves from the crowd, standing together with the dense forest every day, fighting against the Demonic Beast s to the death. Although they said that they looked down on the Red Camp soldiers, which soldier or officer was not envious of the shining emblem on the Red Camp Knight's chest? Compared to the others, they needed more recognition!
So what if he died? Since they had chosen the path of joining the army, it was everyone's destiny to be wrapped in horse hide! But the most important thing was how to die. You can die in battle with the Demonic Beast, or you can jump down the city walls with your enemies in your arms at the end of your Phoenix City Pass. But now, they had a new choice. They could recklessly fight on Moqiu s, and they were like sharp blades that stabbed into the body of the Moqiu State s. They would strike with the heaviest force at the weakest point of the enemy's body!
This battle was unprecedented; it shook both the past and the present!
Just as the soldiers' morale was ignited into a ball of flame by the Xiu'er, Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi, the two Imperial Military Academy experts, poured a bucket of kerosene onto the ball of fire, completely transforming it into a ball of fire that swept through the entire Moqiu!
In accordance with the tactics set out by the two men, the existing troops would be divided into three lines according to their original strength. The Wulian Border Army under the Xiu'er and strong man formed a central army, and with their current location as the starting point, they attacked straight towards the Moqiu State of the capital of the Moqiu State. Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi led their Apprentice Knight s to serve as the army on both sides of the road. The two armies maintained a distance of fifty to a hundred Li, making it easier for them to reinforce and resupply each other. The three armies did not set attacking the city as their goal, but rather, they set the task of creating a panic and incinerating the resources of Mo Qiu, making the inside of the Moqiu State completely chaotic. It would be best if they could discover the grain route used by the invading Black Hill Army, and then cut off the route at all costs.
From the moment she obtained this combat plan, the Xiu'er had been carefully considering and deducing everything. However, she did not come from the Imperial Military Academy, so she was basically clueless about tactics and tactics. And as if Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi had discussed this beforehand, both of them shut their mouths and became mute. As for strong man, he could not help much, he knew even more words than Xiu'er. If not for the fact that Wulian Border Army allowed him to carry stones as an examination method, he would probably still be in the kitchen cutting vegetables. With his tactical theory, he was basically zero when he left Five Lotus Mountain.
After pondering for two whole days, the Xiu'er approved this plan of battle. It was also at this moment that Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi were completely released into the air. The two of them, including the Xiu'er, were about to undergo their first transformation in the land of Mo Qiu.
