Jingxing City, fifty miles west.
There was a vanguard of 3,000 Great Qin Cavalry and 5,000 auxiliary soldiers stationed here.
As the State of Zhao experienced an unprecedented drought, Great Qin's General Wang Jian started to act.
Qin General Yang Duan He led the Hanoi army to surround Zhao's capital, Handan. He personally led the main force of the Qin army to attack Jingxing City. He mobilized a total of 400,000 troops and was prepared to take it down in one go!
At the same time, the State of Zhao did not sit still and wait for death. They emptied out their foundation and gathered 300,000 troops.
The War God Li Mu and Sima Shang would lead the troops to fight against the invasion of the Qin Country, which was eyeing them covetously, to prevent the country from being destroyed.
"We're here! All troops, begin to station and rest!"
“.......”
After ten days of rapid marching, Xue Li led a hundred Dragon Gate Village auxiliary soldiers to the front line of the battlefield.
Other than the time to eat and sleep, he was running almost every moment. The consumption of energy and physical strength was huge, causing Xue Li to not have the time to cultivate the halberd technique. He could only silently practice the 'military formation' a few times in his mind. Eight Trigrams Formation.
The random items he obtained were leather armor and bronze swords. He had gathered a hundred sets of them.
Originally, Xue Li was still worried about where to get the equipment. After all, only combat soldiers could get weapons and defensive equipment. Ordinary auxiliary soldiers were not qualified to use them unless they brought them with them.
Now, this problem was perfectly solved. Everyone would get one.
Even if he went to the battlefield, he would not be without the ability to resist and would have the strength to fight.
"Halt!"
"We are the 100 auxiliary troops of Dragon's Gate Village.”
"Dragon Gate Village's auxiliary soldiers? It seemed to have been recorded. Let them in.”
"Yes."
Within the temporary wooden stronghold, Great Qin's 100 Generals who were responsible for patrolling and guarding nodded, allowing Xue Li and the others to enter.
A 100-man team of auxiliary soldiers entered the stronghold.
He was assigned to a corner and waited for orders from the higher-ups.
"My goodness, those cavalrymen riding tall horses are really impressive.”
"Don't even think about it. Do you think anyone can be a cavalry? Without a certain level of riding skills, it was impossible.”
"It's all thanks to the Langjun of the Xue family that I can wear leather armor and have a high-quality bronze sword. If you guys are ungrateful, don't blame me for turning against you.”
"What are you talking about? How can the men of Dragon Gate Village be ungrateful?”
"There are many rules in the military camp. Everyone, remember not to act recklessly and listen to the orders of the hundred generals.”
“.......”
As soon as they entered the wooden stronghold, the young men of the Xue family village exclaimed.
To them, Great Qin's majestic Cavalry was their dream. They wanted nothing more than to ride on their warhorses and use their weapons to take the heads of their enemies before returning home in glory.
Of course, this was just a thought.
They were only auxiliary soldiers, not even regular soldiers, let alone cavalry.
One had to know that the cost of raising a cavalryman was almost equivalent to raising five infantrymen. Their value was not on the same level.
"Let's camp here. The tent is ready.”
"Everyone, five people in a group, one room.”
"We can share the roasted mutton here to replenish our strength.”
“.......”
Xue Li led the army to a corner of the village.
After settling everyone down, he took out 20 catties of roasted mutton and distributed them.
Everyone was given a certain amount. Although it was not enough to eat, it was enough to taste the delicious mutton.
As for where the Langjun of the Xue family got it from, everyone present was a trusted aide. They would not ask such a question to the end. As long as they knew that it was given by Xue Li, they would silently remember it in their hearts.
Other people could not even think of asking anything. The young men of Dragon's Gate Village could be said to be tight-lipped.
" It smells so good!"
"What is this smell? Mutton?"
"It's coming from that direction. It seems to be the 100 auxiliary troops that have just been stationed.”
"Smelling this fragrance, the corn in the bowl suddenly doesn't smell good.”
"I'm fine. I suddenly have an appetite after smelling this fragrance.”
“......”
The aroma of the roasted mutton directly affected the seven or eight hundred auxiliary soldiers nearby.
All of them stuck their heads out and looked in the direction of the 100 troops of Dragon Gate Village's auxiliary soldiers. They could not help but swallow.
In the army, the food eaten for each meal was different according to the rank of nobility. It was already good enough for ordinary soldiers without a rank to fill their stomachs. They usually ate coarse corn.
Gongshi and Shangzao could eat coarse rice, while Zanniao, who was a third-level noble, had a bucket of fine rice, half a liter of sauce and a plate of vegetable soup.
However, if they wanted to eat meat, they had to be at least a doctor of the fifth rank. Only then could they occasionally have extra meals.
Of course, if you brought meat over yourself, others had no right to interfere. Even military officers could not confiscate the rations of their subordinates. Otherwise, if they were reported, they would be whipped.
