"Hmm? The grain transported from Qi City was intercepted?”
Inside the Jade Gate Pass, Duan Zhixuan frowned.
Recently, Tuyuhun had attacked the grain transport team because they had already surrounded the Jade Gate Pass. As long as they cut off the grain, they could break through the Jade Gate Pass.
After all, a hundred thousand soldiers were guarding the Jade Gate Pass, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack. If they did not pay a huge price, it would be very difficult to break through.
Thus, Tuyuhun's army used this method to seal off the city and cut off their rations.
"Send the army to help, but it seems that it's too late, right?”
Duan Zhixuan said.
The deputy general nodded.
" We've already sent troops over."
At this moment, a general rushed into the hall.
"Yuan, Marshal!"
Looking at the panic-stricken general, Duan Zhixuan frowned.
"Why are you so panicked?"
The general swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty.
"Marshal, we sent troops to rescue Qi City grain transport team.”
"But, but."
Duan Zhixuan shouted in a deep voice when he saw the other party's hesitation.
"Hurry up and say it. You're stammering like a woman.”
The general nodded hurriedly.
"However, the 3,000 cavalrymen who attacked the Qi City grain transport team were all wiped out!”
Duan Zhixuan and the deputy general were stunned. Three thousand? This was much more than the information they had obtained.
"I remember that the Qi City transport team is only a hundred people team, right?”
"A hundred people actually wiped out three thousand elite light cavalry? How is this possible?"
Duan Zhixuan nodded in agreement. Not even the most elite black-armored cavalry of the Great Tang could achieve such a feat.
"Marshal, this general saw it with my own eyes. This general won't be wrong about the mountain of corpses and sea of blood.”
"I even cut off my ears. Marshal only needs to count them and you will know that what I said is true.”
Duan Zhixuan was shocked. This was his personal guard, so naturally it was impossible to fake it.
"Who is the commander?"
Duan Zhixuan asked the deputy general.
However, they obviously wouldn't know who a mere centurion was.
In the end, Duan Zhixuan found the officer in charge of logistics. He was in charge of recruiting the villagers this time.
He learned Luo Yuan's name from the officer.
"Luo Yuan? He's from Yumen River Village, seventeen years old this year?”
Duan Zhixuan exclaimed. If the result of this battle was true, then this young man was not simple!
A hundred people had actually killed three thousand light cavalry. How powerful was this?
"Bring this Luo Yuan here. I want to see him.”
At the same time, Luo Yuan, who had returned to the Jade Gate Pass military camp, was informed by the soldiers that the Marshal wanted to see him before he could rest.
Luo Yuan was not surprised. After all, he had made such a great contribution. It was completely normal for Duan Zhixuan to want to see him.
Not long after, Luo Yuan followed the soldiers and arrived at Duan Zhixuan's tent.
"I, Luo Yuan, pay my respects to the marshal."
Luo Yuan cupped his hands and bowed, neither servile nor overbearing.
The Great Tang didn't like to kneel, so it was enough to just cup one's hands.
Duan Zhixuan looked at Luo Yuan curiously and nodded.
Luo Yuan's temperament was extraordinary. Although he couldn't put it into words, it was obvious that he instinctively felt pressured in front of Luo Yuan.
In fact, this was normal. How could a normal human not feel pressure when facing a zombie that was like a natural enemy?
"I'm very curious, how did you guys wipe out three thousand light cavalry?”
Luo Yuan pondered for a moment before cupping his hands and saying to Duan Zhixuan.
"Marshal, thank you for your bravery in killing the enemy.”
Duan Zhixuan nodded, but he was still puzzled. No matter how he thought about it, it was impossible for a hundred people to defeat three thousand people!
Moreover, they were Tuyuhun's elite light cavalry. He immediately tested them.
"In that case, your hundred brothers are all very powerful?”
Luo Yuan nodded. Although they weren't as strong as Luo Yuan, the zombies were still alive.
However, even if they had just become zombies, they were basically invulnerable and had endless strength.
They could at least lift a thousand pounds and move as fast as a cheetah.
Not long after, Duan Zhixuan called out to Luo Yuan's 100 subordinates.
Looking at the hundreds of people with their heads held high and chests puffed out, Duan Zhixuan felt a sense of seriousness.
He, who was experienced in the battlefield, could clearly sense that these hundreds of people were very dangerous, like ferocious beasts!
No, it might even be more dangerous than a ferocious beast.
"Let's begin, Luo Yuan. If you can defeat my personal guards, I'll make the decision to make you a general and command an army.”
Duan Zhixuan said. As the current marshal of the Longyou Province, he could still make a general.
He only needed to report to the imperial court. Moreover, Luo Yuan's battle record of killing 3,000 light cavalry was enough for him to be conferred the title of general. There might even be a posthumous title after the battle.
"Yes, Marshal."
Luo Yuan nodded. Anyone would yearn to be conferred the title of King.
Moreover, the higher his achievements were, the higher the achievements of his brothers behind him would naturally be.
They had all been turned into zombies by him. At the same time, they were also his most loyal subordinates. Luo Yuan naturally wouldn't let them continue to be useless.
On the drill ground, Xu Luo and the others were facing Duan Zhixuan's personal guards. There weren't many of them, only a thousand.
However, they were all elites, and their equipment was only slightly inferior to Li Shiming's Black Armored Army.
After all, he was an old friend who had fought with Duan Zhixuan in the past.
"Begin!"
With Duan Zhixuan's order, the competition began.
