In the study room where Li Xiao temporarily stayed to handle official business.
Li You reported in front of Li Xiao,"
"Lord Marquis, our scouts have reported that the Xiongnu are still gathering.
Clearly, they did not intend to give up on attacking.
Moreover, their troops had increased from the rear of the Mobei, but there had been no movement!”
Li Xiao said lightly,"
"The soldiers and horses that the Imperial Court has recruited from all over the world will soon begin to gather at Yanmen Pass.。
They have soldiers, and so do we.
As long as these Xiongnu people haven't attacked, it's beneficial for us to delay for a day.”
"Oh right, how are the logistics of the army?”
"In the battle a few days ago, our Great Qin army lost at least 5000 or so people.
Apart from that, there were more than 10,000 injured!
As for our logistics, we can only support them for another 10 days.
However, the logistics team from the imperial court should be arriving soon.
Our predicament will probably be resolved soon!”
Li Xiao nodded and said,"
"Those corpses must be handled well. We must not cause a plague in Yanmen Pass.”
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
After chatting with Li You for a while, he mainly talked about the situation in Yanmen Pass.
Li Xiao didn't know much about military affairs.
His main task was to command these people to defend the city.
Leave professional matters to professionals.
"Tiansha, help me send General Li off!”
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
It was a good thing for Li Xiao that the Xiongnu did not attack Yanmen Pass for a day.
At the very least, there was no need to worry too much about Yanmen Pass.
After 15 minutes, Tian Sha returned and said,"
"Lord Marquis, General Li has been sent out!”
Looking at Tian Sha, Li Xiao suddenly thought of something and said to Tian Sha,"
"It's fine for you to follow me around. Take a few more books on war and read them.
You might even have the chance to lead an army in the future.
After you learn your skills.
I'll make you a general."
"Earth Fiend and Ghost Fiend are already guarding one side.
As their big brother, you can't be left too far behind by them, right?
I still have big things to do for you in the future.
Do you understand?"
Tian Sha's strength was extremely strong. He dared to fight and risk his life. He was definitely a natural talent. It was just that he was too reckless, and Li Xiao was not at ease letting him go.
If he could learn more military books and strategies.
With Li Xiao's methods, he could totally make Tian Sha a general.
To be honest, it was a waste of talent to be Li Xiao's bodyguard.
Tian Sha nodded solemnly and said,"
"Lord Marquis, this subordinate understands!"
In fact, Tian Sha himself felt that following Li Xiao all day was not bad.
After all, Li Xiao had thought of everything for him.
He didn't need to use his brain.
But since Li Xiao needed him, he would naturally study military books and become a general.
Three days later, the Great General of the Black Armored Imperial Army, Li Xin, arrived at Li Xiao's residence with a face full of joy.
"Brother Tiansha, long time no see!”
Seeing Li Xin's shameless appearance, Tian Sha couldn't help but roll his eyes.
He had thought that this was a proper general.
Later on, he realized that he was a joker.
"Lord Marquis is currently in the inner court. What's the matter?”
Li Xin's face revealed a happy expression,"
"Reinforcements, reinforcements are here. This time, we finally don't have to suffer the wrath of the Xiongnu.
Let these Xiongnu dogs see the might of Great Qin's army.
I have to report this to Lord Marquis, I'm in a hurry!”
"Got it!"
Tian Sha nodded and sent someone to the inner court to report to Li Xiao.
At this moment, Li Xiao was still chatting with Yu Shu.
"Lord Marquis, General Li Xin is here!"
An assassin from the Network hurriedly came over to report.
"Lord Marquis, you can go first if there's something important!”
Li Xiao nodded and said,"
"Then I'll come back later!"
"Alright!"
Hearing Li Xiao's ambiguous words, Yu Shu lowered her head and said with a red face.
Li Xiao immediately left the inner courtyard and went to the meeting hall in the front courtyard to see Li Xin.
Li Xin, who was waiting in the mansion, saw that Li Xiao finally came out and said with a happy expression,"
"Lord Marquis, you've finally come out!"
"The reinforcements from the Imperial Court have arrived. General Wang Jian has led an army of more than a hundred thousand to Yanmen Pass.
They had already entered the Yanmen Pass.
I'm here to invite Lord Marquis over for a meeting.”
"Wang Jian?"
Li Xiao nodded and said,"
"Then let's go and meet them first!"
Wang Jian was Great Qin's old General, and his status in Great Qin was extremely high.
It could be said that there were three heroes in the sect.
His son, Wang Ben, was also a Great General of Great Qin.
Apart from that, his grandson, Wang Li, was also a famous Young General in the Great Qin army.
His qualifications were definitely old.
In the meeting hall of the city lord's mansion.
Everyone had already arrived, but the seat of honor was empty.
Because Li Xiao was the marshal.
"Lord Marquis has arrived!"
"Greetings, Lord Marquis!"
"Generals, you're welcome!"
Li Xiao sat in the seat of honor and looked at the three people sitting beside him. One of them was an old general with white hair and beard. Beside him sat a middle-aged general with a fierce expression.
The last one was a slightly immature major general.
These three people were the three heroes of the Wang Clan.
General Wang Jian, Lieutenant General Wang Ben, and Young General Wang Li.
"Thank you, Generals, for coming to our aid!"
Old general Wang Jian smiled and said,
"We have already heard about what Lord Marquis did at Yanmen Pass.
Lord Marquis was truly the Defender Marquis!
With his own strength, the Xiongnu did not dare to attack.
I really admire you!"
Wang Jian appeared very polite. On the other hand, Wang Li, who was at the side, said with a slightly excited expression,
"It's said that Lord Marquis 'archery is invincible.
He stood on the city gate tower alone and killed 30 to 40 Xiongnu Condor Shooters.
This was simply terrifying!
This is truly admirable!
Who didn't know that the Xiongnu Condor Shooters were more difficult to deal with than the last!”
Generals like Wang Jian and Wang Li didn't fight with the Xiongnu army all year round.
However, they had also fought against the Xiongnu.
Naturally, he knew how terrifying and difficult it was to deal with the Xiongnu's Condor Shooters.
After hearing that Li Xiao had shot down 30 to 40 Condor Shooters on the city gate tower alone, he was shocked.
It simply shocked them to the core.
But what followed was admiration.
In the army, the only iron law was to obey the strong.
Li Xiao smiled indifferently and said,"
"Being able to defend Yanmen Pass is all because of the hard work of all the soldiers.
If I was alone…
And what to use to guard the big Yanmen Pass.”
Li Xiao's words had a hint of buying the hearts of the people, but it made the other generals at Yanmen Pass feel comfortable. Even their gazes towards Li Xiao were filled with admiration. Only Yi Xiaochuan, who was beside him, muttered softly.
"What a hypocrite!"
"Didn't you just kill a few Xiongnu archers?
He was bragging all day as if he wanted everyone to know!
Li Xiao, you villain!"
Although Yi Xiaochuan spoke softly, Wang Li, who was standing beside him, heard him clearly. Wang Li immediately glared at Yi Xiaochuan with an angry expression and said,
"Who are you? He actually dared to slander Lord Marquis here? What Xiongnu archers?
What do you know?
Did Lord Marquis kill a Xiongnu Condor Archer?”
"Kid, do you know how many people a Xiongnu Condor Hunter can kill on the battlefield?
As long as he still had a bow and arrow?
You can keep reaping lives!"
Wang Li had once suffered a loss at the hands of the Xiongnu's Condor Shooters.
60% of the soldiers he led were killed by a few Condor Shooters.
If it wasn't for the fact that his martial arts were excellent.
He had probably died in the North Desert long ago. That was why he knew how terrifying the Condor Shooters were.
Now that Yi Xiaochuan had acknowledged Meng Tian as his big brother, his courage had also risen. Seeing that a young general he had never seen before dared to shout at him, he immediately shouted angrily,"
"Who do you think you are?
My name is Yi Xiaochuan, and my big brother is the Great General of the Meng Army, Meng Tian.
So what if I badmouth Li Xiao?”
Yi Xiaochuan's arrogant words caused all the Generals present to frown. After all, they were all influential figures in the Great Qin Imperial Court's military.
How could he be so arrogant like a ruffian?
Li Xin was gloating,
"This silly kid!"
"Does he really think that his big brother Meng Tian is the most awesome in the entire military?
I've finally kicked an iron plate today!"
"Brat, are you courting death?" Wang Li's face immediately revealed a stern expression.
Without another word, he was about to attack Yi Xiaochuan.
"Li 'er! Stop!"
"Yes, Grandpa!"
Right at this moment, the old general Wang Jian suddenly turned his head to stop him.
But the old general Wang Jian was not to be trifled with.
After telling his grandson to stop, Wang Jian stared at Yi Xiaochuan and said,"
"Your big brother is Meng Tian from the Meng family's army?”
"My big brother is Meng Tian!"
Wang Jian nodded and suddenly asked,"
"Then you are the Great Qin General?"
Yi Xiaochuan hesitated and said,"
"Not yet, but my big brother asked me to come over and listen.”
As Yi Xiaochuan's voice faded, Li Xin and the others revealed a look of amusement.
He knew that the old general Wang Jian was about to fly into a rage.
"Since you're not Great Qin's General, how dare you make such a big fuss here?
What right did you have to scold Great Qin's General?
Brat, get out of here immediately!”
"Why?"
Wang Jian snorted coldly and said,"
"Because I am the old general Wang Jian!"
