In the middle of the night, Li Xin got up. He didn't wear any armor, but a middle robe. He held a saber and left the tent.
Liu Hu and the others who were guarding outside the tent bowed when they saw Li Xin come out.
Waving his hand, he came to the open space in front of the tent. He unsheathed his saber and directly used the Nine Bloody Massacres.
Killing sword skills on the battlefield didn't have those fancy things. They were simple and direct, but they were extremely powerful. Every move and style attacked the enemy's vital points.
When Liu Hu and the others who were guarding the tent saw Li Xin's saber technique, their eyes lit up.
Especially Liu Hu and the other 10 bodyguards, they had sharp eyes. They knew that the blade technique that Li Xin used was the most suitable for killing on the battlefield. Moreover, it was very powerful, much stronger than the blade techniques that they practiced.
The rest of the soldiers in front of the tent also saw the power of this blade technique from the flashing blade light.
However, his eyesight was much weaker than Liu Hu and the others.
After he finished practicing the saber technique, he practiced the foundation establishment fist technique again.
This time, the personal guards who were only at the beginning of martial arts could see the difference in this Reckless Bull Fist.
It was obviously much more powerful than the Foundation Building fist technique that they practiced in the military.
After finishing the battle, Li Xin, who was refreshed, noticed the expressions of his subordinates.
"What's wrong? You want to learn?" Li Xin asked with a smile.
Although the dozens of soldiers around him did not answer, they showed that they wanted to learn. Li Xin also smiled and said,""Alright, I'll teach it to you later."
"Thank you, Commandant!"
Upon hearing Li Xin's words, Liu Hu and the others all cupped their fists and bowed. The twenty soldiers in front of the tent also cupped their fists with a solemn expression, their eyes filled with excitement.
With a sweep of the Eye of Truth, the loyalty points of the soldiers in front of the tent, who had originally reached 50, rose rapidly. In a moment, they all broke through the 70 mark.
It was not to the point of being loyal to the death, but this loyalty was already very high.
……
After breakfast, the Whole Wind Guards set up camp. After the injured soldiers were treated, the lightly injured followed the army. As for the heavily injured, they could only stay in Yongning County to recuperate and wait for the army to return.
As the vanguard of the army, the 1st Battalion set off 15 minutes earlier and headed north.
Along the way, they would occasionally encounter barbarian wolves.
Small-scale battles between the two sides occurred from time to time, resulting in casualties.
The 30,000 strong Gale Guards army advanced quickly. After another day, they finally arrived 50 miles southwest of Border Town.
"Report!"
"Border Town is being attacked by the Barbarian Wolf Army.”
"Report!"
"The Barbarian Wolves 'main camp is located twenty miles north of the town's border.”
"Report!"
"Thirty thousand barbarian wolf elite cavalry, set up a formation forty li in front of our army.”
"Report!"
“……..”
Groups of cavalry did not stop at night and quickly reported the military situation to their commander.
As for the Gale Guards who had temporarily stopped to recuperate, they seized the time to recover.
"Men, how long will it take for the follow-up army to arrive?”Lu Pojun asked his subordinates after gathering the battle reports.
"Reporting to General, the follow-up army is still two thousand li away from us. It will take two days for them to arrive even if they march day and night.”
"Understood. Send an order to the follow-up troops. Border Town is in danger. Speed up the march and reach 40 miles south of Border Town in two days.”
"Here!"
"Order the army to press forward twenty miles and set up camp thirty miles southwest of Border Town.”
"Here!"
"Order the 1st Battalion to keep a close watch on the enemy. Also, set up more sentries around the camp to be on guard!”
"As ordered!"
Following the orders, the Gale Guards moved forward again, maintaining their formation and pressing down on Border Town.
Because of the arrival of the army, the Barbarian Wolf Army that was attacking Town Border City retreated.
On top of the original 30,000 cavalrymen, the main camp had an additional 20,000 cavalrymen. The soldiers were united to deter the Gale Guards near Border Town.
As for the battle between the two armies, countless battles had already erupted.
Both sides suffered casualties.
It was Li Xin who personally took action and led his troops to kill several groups of Hu cavalry scouts that made the other party restrain themselves.
The sky was getting dark, and the activity area of the barbarian wolf cavalry was shrinking. It was only then that it quieted down.
But even so, the 1st Battalion had lost dozens of soldiers and suffered close to a hundred injuries.
It could be seen how intense the battle between Ye Bushou and the enemy cavalry was.
……
In Border Town, Qi Lun, the Marquis of Northern Battlefront, heard a report from his subordinates that Great Gan's scouts were roaming around Border Town. He knew that reinforcements had arrived.
In the past few days, facing the fierce attacks of the Barbarian Wolf Army, the Black Forest Guards and the remaining half of the Black Wind Guards in Border Town had suffered heavy casualties. Only 30,000 of them were still intact.
The number of casualties reached 20,000.
At the same time, the young men in the city had also begun to go up to the city to help carry the weapons and help with the city defense.
Other than the 20 thousand casualties of the main army, more than 10 thousand young men died in the battle to defend the city.
It was equivalent to over 10,000 casualties in Town Border City every day in just over three days. In another two to three days, Border Town would be wiped out by the barbarian wolf army.
Fortunately, the reinforcements had arrived!
From tomorrow onwards, it would be impossible for the enemy to continue attacking without restraint.
"Use the red feather to send a message. Order the commander of the Gale Guards to send more scouts to patrol the surroundings of Border Town so that the wolf barbarians outside the city won't attack with all their strength!”
"Here!"
The order of the Northern Marquis was quickly passed to the Gale Guards.
After Lu Pojun received the military order, he wrote back about Li Xin's meritorious service.
At the general's temporary encampment, Qilun frowned after reading the reply.
"A day ago, the Swift Wind Guard sent a letter with a red feather. Is there anything regarding the reward of the hundred General Li Xin?”
When his subordinate's messenger heard this, he quickly found the red feather messenger from before.
The official documents from the Whole Wind Guards were placed separately, so they were naturally found very quickly.
"Reporting to Great General, there is indeed a letter.”
"Let me see."
"Here." The secretary stepped forward and put down the document.
Looking at the letter, Qilun frowned.
Although he spent most of his time in the northern borders, he was no stranger to Marquis Sea Seal's estate as a Martial Marquis.
Although he had never been to the Southern Territory, it did not mean that he did not know the situation there.
Yan Hai was definitely a strong army in the Southern Region. His position in the southern region was very important, at the same time, he fought bravely in the battle against the mermen overseas and made great contributions.
As for Li Xin, as the son of Marquis Seadeep's concubine, he was ordered to go to the northern border to guard the border. He had made enough military achievements, so it was not reasonable for him to not be promoted according to the law.
Qi Lun, the Marquis of Northern Battlefront, was different from the other new nobles of Jinghong in the Divine Capital.
Although he was also a new noble in Jinghong, he wasn't from the same faction as them. He was from the border military faction and was also the leader of the border military faction.
He didn't care about the petty schemes of the imperial court.
They basically didn't participate in the battle between the new nobles and the founding meritorious officials.
Therefore, after thinking about it, he picked up a pen and wrote down a military order. After stamping it with a big seal, he wrote a military report.
The general's order and military report were handed over to the letter. The Northguard Marquis said,""Send the military order to the Gale Guards and the military report to the Divine Capital!”
"Here! This subordinate will obey your orders."
The order left the hall and was handed over to the personal guards in charge.
When Lu Pojun received the order, he pondered for a moment and ordered people to summon Li Xin.
An hour later, Li Xin entered the main tent of the Central Army. He was travel-worn, and there were still traces of blood on his armor that had not been cleaned. The smell of blood could be smelled from afar.
"I am the lieutenant of the 1st Battalion, Li Xin. Greetings, General!”
