The people in the same group exclaimed in their hearts.
Especially since this guy was a new soldier who had joined the army for less than a year. This kind of battle achievements was something that even experienced veterans could not compare to!
However, apart from being amazed, they were more excited.
This was because they had also killed one or two people by Yang Chen's side. They would also obtain battle merits.
Battle merits! Didn't they fight to the death to obtain military merits and be conferred titles?
In an instant, they looked at Yang Chen with gratitude.
If Yang Chen was not by their side, it would not have been so easy for them to obtain battle merits.
Wuwuwu ~~
The loud retreat horn echoed as the Qin army retreated like a tide.
Not far away was the Zhao army's city, Li City. If they attacked without preparation, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.
Ta…
The Qin army quickly retreated and only stopped after retreating to a safe place ten miles away from the city.
The army began to set up camp and wait for the next move.
At this moment, after experiencing an intense battle, countless soldiers were extremely tired. After setting up their tents, they began to rest.
The next day!
In one of the tents.
Dozens of soldiers were looking at Yang Chen in disbelief.
That was because when he reported the battle merits just now, he had reported as many as fifteen people!
A total of fifteen people were beheaded!
Everyone in the tent was dumbstruck. This young man had actually beheaded fifteen armored soldiers!
This was simply unbelievable!
A recruit killing fifteen armored soldiers, what kind of concept was this?
Among the dozens of people in this tent, other than him, the one who had the highest military merit was a veteran who had beheaded three people.
In the entire tent, he was the only one who had beheaded three people. The others either had no military merits or had only killed one or two people.
But this guy had beheaded fifteen people by himself!
Everyone looked at Yang Chen with shock and envy!
Great Qin's military merits and titles were calculated by the number of beheaded soldiers.
Beheading one person would grant one a first-class title. Other than the title and annual salary, one would also be given a field, a house, and a servant.
As for what kind of title and reward a new recruit could get by killing fifteen people, they were not sure, nor did they know how to calculate it.
This was because they were just ordinary soldiers and did not even have a title. They would be overjoyed if they could earn a first or second rank title. As for a higher rank, they did not even think about it.
However, one thing was certain. They knew that this guy would definitely be promoted several levels after this battle. He might even become their general.
"Brother Yang, I didn't expect your strength to be so strong. Now that you've made such a contribution, you will definitely be put in an important position.”
Beside him, Yang Chen's sergeant and sergeant walked over and spoke to Yang Chen politely.
"Sergeant, Sergeant, you're too polite. We've fought together before, so we'll naturally take care of each other in the future!”
Yang Chen looked at the few of them politely replying. He was not arrogant because of his achievements.
Other than the sergeant and ten-year-old, even the station commanders and hundred generals who were one rank higher came to Yang Chen's side. They were both delighted and amazed.
The battle merits of the station commander and the hundred generals were linked to the number of beheaded soldiers under them. This time, Yang Chen alone had killed fifteen people, which made them extremely happy.
This was because they had been through several battles and had not been promoted to a noble title. However, they had actually achieved it in this battle.
They loved Yang Chen very much. They wished that this guy would stay in their army forever and earn military merits for them.
However, they were also clear that such a fierce person would definitely be put in an important position and would soon surpass them.
Yang Chen politely greeted them.
In fact, he was also curious. With his battle achievements, he did not know what kind of title he could obtain.
In his memories, he knew that to become a First Class Duke, he only needed to behead an armored soldier and ensure that no one in the same team was seriously injured or killed.
However, he wasn't sure about those who were at the second rank and above.
However, he knew that it was not as simple as killing a person to advance to a noble rank. Otherwise, it would be too easy.
…
In the central camp where the army commander Wang He was.
In the huge tent, the old general, Wang He, was standing at the head of the group. Below him were the generals of the various divisions.
Wang He was pacing back and forth with a solemn face.
Below, a general was speaking.
"General, according to my plan, we should take down Li City with our army. Li City is the most important city in Shangdang Prefecture.”
As soon as the general finished speaking, another general stood up and cupped his fists.
"General, I don't think we should be so hasty. The Zhao army still has the strength and is defending the city. If we attack Licheng, our losses will not be small!”
"I don't agree with what General Zhang said. Our morale is high now, and our soldiers are fighting to fight. If we don't attack Licheng but attack other cities, we will definitely face fierce resistance from the other cities.”
"I agree with General Li…"
Several generals expressed their opinions and argued.
While the crowd was discussing fervently, Wang He, who was deep in thought, stopped and raised his arm to stop the crowd from arguing.
"All the generals are right. I have made up my mind to attack Licheng. However, before we attack Licheng, make sufficient preparations!”
Wang He said in a deep voice.
Seeing that Wang He had made up his mind, everyone stopped arguing.
Everyone began to discuss how to take down Li City with minimal losses.
Ta…
At this moment, a soldier quickly walked into the tent!
"General!"
The soldier bowed respectfully.
"Hmm, have you calculated the number of casualties and beheading of the various battalions?”
Wang He raised his head and saw the quartermaster, Chen Fang, coming in. He nodded and said in a deep voice.
"Yes, General. Each of our battalions suffered 800 casualties and 650 died. Decapitated a total of 2,500 enemies! This is the list of the number of soldiers killed by each battalion. Please take a look!”
Lieutenant Chen Fang quickly said and handed a bundle of bamboo slips to Wang He.
The generals were not too surprised when they heard the number of casualties and beheading. Not only did the Qin army have the advantage in numbers, but their morale, combat power, and generals were also stronger than the other side.
It was a pity that neither side had mobilized all their forces to fight. Otherwise, if they could destroy most of the enemy's forces in this battle, it would be easier to conquer Li City.
Wang He took the bamboo slip and sat behind the table, opening it.
There were too many names on the list. He quickly glanced at the many records on it. Just as he was about to roll it up and hand it to Chen Fang for publicity, he suddenly hesitated.
Then, he raised his thick eyebrows and widened his eyes, staring intently at a name on the bamboo slip.
