After settling the administrative matters, the entire army of Zhuo County began to mobilize.
When the soldiers heard that they were going to follow the county magistrate out to fight, they were both excited and worried.
They were excited because after months of training, they had already passed the recruit phase. Now, if they wanted to grow, they could only go to the battlefield.
Moreover, their purpose in joining the army was to eat their fill, and the other was to make contributions and return home with glory.
Only on the battlefield would they have the chance to make contributions, win the rewards of the county magistrate, and obtain glory and wealth.
Therefore, every soldier was looking forward to war.
However, they were also very nervous.
Because it was her first time, she was a little afraid.
They were worried that this was the first time, and it might very well be the last.
On the battlefield, swords and sabers had no eyes. Perhaps a cold arrow would brush past them and they would fall.
Death could happen at any time.
They were worried that they would die before they could make any contributions.
This was a kind of contradictory mentality.
However, what they hoped for more was war. Although death was terrifying, they did not retreat.
Su Yan treated them very well. Other than eating and wearing warm clothes, they also received military pay every month.
Although it wasn't a lot, it was enough to make them happy.
At this time, human lives were not worth mentioning, and the lives of the soldiers were not much better.
It was already good enough to have a full meal, let alone money.
Not only did Su Yan give out money, but the compensation for the soldiers who died in battle was also relatively high.
Compared to any dukedom at this time, the treatment he gave was definitely the best.
This also perfectly resolved the worries of the soldiers, allowing them to go to the battlefield with peace of mind. Even if they died in battle, they would not regret it.
In the drill ground outside the city,
Su Yan rode on his warhorse and came to the front of the soldiers with the phoenix gold-plated boring in his hand.
"The Xiongnu are attacking and have already reached the nearby Fangcheng County. Once they succeed, their next target will be us.”
"I think you should know better than me what the consequences will be if we let them succeed.”
"Tell me, what are you going to do?"
"Kill them!"
The soldiers raised their spears and shouted indignantly.
"Very good! For the sake of our homes and families, we swear to defeat the Xiongnu!”
" Pass on my order. All troops, move out!"
With Su Yan's order, the entire army set off. Their target was Fangcheng County!
Along the way, Su Yan had sent out many scouts to scout out the movements of the Wuhuan Cavalry.
Behind him was Dian Wei and his broken army camp, as well as a thousand new recruits and a hundred cavalrymen.
For the past three months, he had used the Zou family's channels to purchase warhorses from merchants in Liaodong.
At the very least, they had gathered more than a hundred cavalry.
There weren't many players, but he had spent over 10,000 Gold.
Warhorses were precious strategic resources at this time. A high-tier warhorse would cost at least 100 gold.
If not for the Zou family's connections, he would have spent even more.
The 100 cavalrymen were half veterans and half recruits.
Not only were horses rare, but people were even rarer.
A well-trained cavalry was absolutely precious.
After all, experience was the hardest thing to accumulate. If he moved, he would die.
Through various channels, Su Yan finally gathered fifty veterans who had been on the battlefield. Then, he asked them to bring fifty new recruits to form a cavalry unit.
Su Yan named them the Flying Tiger Battalion!
In the future, the cavalry would be incorporated into the Flying Tigers Battalion.
The troops quickly rushed towards Fangcheng County.
"Report!"
"Sir, the Xiongnu cavalry have been discovered in the village ahead. They are slaughtering the people.”
A scout rushed over to report.
"Damn it!"
Su Yan gritted his teeth and said," All troops, listen up. Speed up and attack the Xiongnu cavalry in front!”
After the order was passed down, all the soldiers mustered up their energy and rushed forward in formation.
The sound of footsteps rang out, and a cloud of dust was stirred up behind him.
...........
"Child, don't look back. Run!"
"Mother! I'm scared!"
"The barbarians are coming!”
In a village, the Wuhuan people were slaughtering unarmed civilians.
Corpses were scattered on the ground in the village.
These were the commoners who had been killed by the Wuhuan cavalry before they could escape.
In addition to some adult men, there were even white-haired old people and drooping children.
Their faces were covered in blood, and their eyes flickered with fear.
The Wuhuan people rushed into the village and killed all the men, old and weak they saw. All the young and beautiful women were captured by them.
Some of them couldn't wait any longer. They found a corner and gathered together to vent their beastly desires.
The fire burned through the houses, and the entire village was filled with thick smoke.
The smoke was filled with the roars of beasts, screams, and cries.
The entire village seemed to have turned into a living hell.
Creak!
The door was opened, and Su Puyan, who had vented his anger, put on his clothes and walked out.
In the room behind him, the eyes of the young girl who was fully exposed had already lost their luster, and her breathing gradually stopped.
As soon as Su Puyan came out, he heard a heart-wrenching scream and a sinister laugh from the room beside him.
After a while, the door opened and Nan Lou walked out.
"I say, Nan Lou, your methods are too bad.”
Su Puyan sat on a wooden stake and laughed as he ate his roasted meat.
"Forget it, Su Puyan. You're not much stronger than me.”
Nan Lou took the roasted meat from the soldier and sat down to eat.
"We've already explored the vicinity of Fangcheng County. Let's go to Zhuo County tomorrow.”
Su Puyan suggested.
"Haha, good. I'll find a few more beautiful women when the time comes.”
Nan Lou laughed loudly.
Rumble!
Just as the two of them were chatting and laughing, the ground under their feet suddenly shook.
"Kill!"
