There are no hills or steep mountains around. On the contrary, there is a small stream nearby. You must know that this stream flows down from the glacier, and it will not freeze even in the cold winter. Therefore, for the people of Fulu County, this stream is the spring of life, which is extremely critical.
Zhu Youtian's army was stationed here.
Zhu Youtian used to be a county lieutenant in Jiuquan County. To be able to serve as a county lieutenant has some ability. Moreover, Zhu Youtian is also literate and understands some simple military strategies. Therefore, among the many bandits entrenched in Fulu County, although Zhu Youtian's military strength is not The most, but the strength is at least the top three. Even compared to the strongest bandits, Zhu Youtian dared to fight.
?Zhu Youtian is entrenched here, and has even mastered a piece of land, a full hundred mu of fertile land, and many ordinary fields. Zhu Youtian used all these fields. He asked his soldiers to cultivate the fields and plant them by themselves in order to be self-sufficient.
In addition, Zhu Youtian also led people to rob.
It's just that they all plundered rich and unkind wealthy merchants. In addition, Zhu Youtian also accepted the employment of many merchants. He led troops to escort merchants and charged a certain commission.
In short, Zhu Youtian has a wide range of paths.
Although his team only has 500 people, its combat effectiveness is very strong. However, this kind of combat power is not achieved overnight, but is honed out from battle after battle.
In the field Zhu Youtian once planted, when the grain was ripe for harvest, one of the strongest bandit leaders came to snatch the grain. Zhu Youtian didn't say anything, and summoned his men to attack the opponent desperately, regardless of his own loss.
This kind of desperate Saburo's offensive, which risked his life, caused heavy losses to the opponent.
Of course, Zhu Youtian himself suffered a lot of losses, but even so, Zhu Youtian still attacked wildly. In the end, the opponent called Zhu Youtian a lunatic, but he was subdued and hoped to resolve the war.
However, Zhu Youtian did not give up, and insisted on asking the other party to apologize and compensate him, and promised to never do it again, otherwise he would die forever. In the end, the other party apologized and promised not to invade Zhu Youtian's area again.
It was after this incident that the bandits in Fulu County saw Zhu Youtian's madness. From then on, no one dared to provoke Zhu Youtian. At least not driven by sufficient interests, no one is willing to be an enemy of Zhu Youtian.
Just like this, Zhu Youtian gained a firm foothold.
Zhu Youtian developed his strength, but he did not wantonly expand, and only ensured that he had only more than five hundred people.
On the one hand, he needs more food, money, etc. when there are too many people, which is unbearable for him. On the other hand, if there are too many people, there are good and bad. Although he only has 500 people, his fighting power is not weak, enough to gain a foothold, so Zhu Youtian is like this.
Zhu Youtian is quite good to the soldiers under his command.
Whatever he eats, the soldiers eat.
If he has meat to eat, the soldiers will have meat to eat.
He has wine to drink, and soldiers have wine to drink.
The situation of eating and living together gave Zhu Youtian a very high prestige in the hearts of the soldiers in the army. Everyone is willing to obey Zhu Youtian's arrangement, only Zhu Youtian's order is obeyed.
Zhu Youtian is now in his forties, and his temples are already graying due to years of travelling. A pair of eyes could not stop showing a look of exhaustion.
Quite difficult.
It's not easy for him.
Zhu Youtian is tall and strong, and his martial arts are good. Because of getting older and gradually weakening his strength, he seldom uses force, but Zhu Youtian has to participate in the drills of soldiers in the army every day.
He wants to watch for himself.
Early in the morning, the weather was cold and dark clouds filled the sky, adding more chill to the sky.
In the barracks, shouts sounded.
The sound soared into the sky.
Wu Baierlang is practicing.
Zhu Youtian stood aside, with his hands behind his back, supervising the soldiers' drills. He has always told the soldiers under his command that they should practice more at ordinary times, so that they will not be afraid of fighting and avoid being killed in case of war.
"Report!"
At this moment, a soldier came to Zhu Youtian's side.
Zhu Youtian said: "What's the matter?"
The soldier reported: "General, a young man who called himself Ma Yuan came outside the barracks. He said he wanted to see you on something important."
The moment Zhu Youtian heard Ma Yuan's name, a gleam flashed across his eyes. Prior to this, Zhu Youtian had been sending people to contact Ma Yuan, hoping that Ma Yuan would work for him. Zhu Youtian even told Ma Yuan that as long as Ma Yuan is willing to help him, then Zhu Youtian is willing to marry his daughter to Ma Yuan.?And under the impact of strength, Cao Song couldn't help taking a step back. When he stabilized his figure, the hammer had already been smashed down again.
"Clang!!"
There was another crash.
Ma Yuan was still unaffected, and swung sideways again. The third hammer fell, and Cao Song quickly raised his saber to block again. Cao Song's complexion changed even more, and he couldn't help but took two steps back before stabilizing his figure.
Cao Song looked up, with a look of horror in his eyes, and a touch of fear in his heart.
Ma Yuan was full of fighting spirit, and said in his mouth: "Come again!"
The hammer had already been swung up and down again, and the hammer was swung out at an extremely fast speed, which did not give Cao Song any chance to relieve himself.
Even, Cao Song was unavoidable.
Can't dodge at all.
It can only be a counter attack.
When the two hit the seventh hammer, the hammer and the iron-backed sword collided together. Under the impact of violent force, Cao Song spat out a mouthful of blood, the iron-backed broadsword was knocked out, and he sat on the ground paralyzed on his own buttocks.
Ma Yuan was playing quite briskly, but suddenly saw Cao Song vomit blood and fell to the ground, so he stopped attacking. With a look of guilt, he cupped his fists and said: "Just now, I was excited to fight, but I didn't hold back my strength. I'll let it go!"
"I lost!"
Cao Song's face was pale, and his body trembled slightly. In particular, the tiger's mouth of his hands holding the handle of the knife had already burst, and the deep red blood flowed out, staining his palms red.
Its appearance is very miserable.
Ma Yuan stretched out his hand to pull Cao Song up, saying: "Take good care of yourself, don't leave the root cause of the disease."
"Thank you!"
After Cao Song thanked him, he turned and left, and returned to stand in the army.
At this moment, Zhu Youtian's expression became more embarrassing than ever. He didn't expect that when the people under his command fought against Ma Yuan, whether it was Su Feng or Cao Song, they would lose in a short time.
Even, if it weren't for Ma Yuan's mercy. Ma Yuan's all-out effort alone is enough to severely damage Su Feng and Cao Song.
too strong!
When Zhu Youtian was feeling emotional, he also felt that he had seen the right person, and Ma Yuan was really good.
It's a pity that he surrendered to Du Qi.
Zhu Youtian waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's all go down. Ma Yuan, I will go back to the tent."
"yes!"
Although Ma Yuan won, his expression was neither humble nor overbearing, and he did not show arrogance at all. He looked very humble. He nodded to Cao Song and Su Feng, and left with Zhu Youtian.
When the group returned to the tent and the host and guest were seated, Zhu Youtian looked at Ma Yuan and said in a deep voice: "Ma Yuan, you are sure that under Du Qi's command, there will be someone who can beat you."
Ma Yuan sighed: "Your Highness, General Xue Rengui, is superb with one-handed marksmanship. The most important thing is that when it comes to strength, I am not Xue Rengui's opponent."
"Xue Rengui's age is about the same as mine, well, he should be a little younger than me."
"I fought against him before, and I lost!"
"Besides, it is said that the strongest general under His Highness's command is the guard Moledo. He is His Highness's personal guard and is the strongest. It's just that I have never fought against Moledo here, but Xue Rengui lost to Moredo, not to mention it's me."
Ma Yuan explained a general situation.
Zhu Youtian let out a sigh.
too strong.
Du Qi's strength is too strong.
From Xue Rengui, Mo Ledu, to Ma Yuan now, we can see Du Qi's strength. In particular, Ma Yuan said that Du Qi also advocated that there should be no more soldiers, which shows that Du Qi's strength is tyrannical. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
