Chapter 84: Calculating Military Merits

Suddenly there was a roar from the south, and two flying boats appeared one after another, flying towards the battlefield. The two fairy boats were about thirty feet long, and their shapes were different from the fairy boats Wei Yuan had seen before. Their entire bodies were covered in a faint green light.
In the middle, the overall shape is short and thick, showing a murderous intent.
The flying boats came one after another, heading straight for Wubao. With such an obvious target, it was impossible for the Liao Cavalry to let them get close to the battlefield, so thousands of arrows were fired, countless wind arrows, magic weapon armor-piercing arrows dragging the brilliance,
It shot at the leading flying boat. But as soon as the arrows hit the green light on the surface of the flying boat, they fell to the ground one after another. Many sharp arrows were also shot out of the flying boat, knocking down the approaching Liao Cavalry in pieces.
Seeing that the rain of arrows from the Liao cavalry was unable to stop the flying boat, a streak of yellow air suddenly rose into the sky from the north, and the billowing yellow dust was like a sandstorm that destroyed everything in the apocalypse, instantly rushing hundreds of feet into the sky!
Someone snorted heavily, with hidden anger, which made the whole battlefield tremble. Then there was a vast and chilling eagle cry, and a huge white goshawk rushed out of the yellow dust, spanning thousands of feet in an instant, fiercely
Hit the flying boat!
With Wei Yuan's eyesight, he could tell that the huge goshawk was actually a giant arrow that was about ten feet long. The giant arrow tore through the green light of the flying boat and almost completely submerged it! The flying boat immediately staggered and fell down as if it was drunk.
, and finally fell outside Wubao, killing a dozen Liao riders who could not escape.
"Bold!" An angry shout rang out from the south, and then a thunderbolt of 100 feet appeared out of thin air, striking at the yellow air from the north.
Hundreds of feet of yellow air were struck by thunder and dissipated for hundreds of feet in an instant. However, three goshawks flew out of the yellow air one after another, and each appearance caused the yellow air to drop by a hundred feet. The three goshawks were almost connected in a line, and suddenly they stretched across thousands of feet.
Long sky, plunged into the empty sky in the south.
A fierce sword light suddenly appeared in the void, drawing a hundred-foot zigzag path in the air like lightning, cutting two goshawks into nothingness! But the third goshawk passed through the sword light, fell into the void, and disappeared.
The mountainous yellow air in the north disappeared, and there seemed to be no movement in the south, but Wei Yuan clearly felt that the pure air of the human realm on the battlefield was a little weaker.
The few strikes just now were as powerful as heaven and earth. Is this a real fight?
The Faxiang of the Northern Liao Dynasty shot a total of four arrows. One arrow shot down a flying boat, and the other arrow seemed to hit the human Faxiang. He himself received a thunderbolt, and the next three arrows seemed to have moved his energy. Judging from the results of the fight, the two sides seemed to have
Both sides suffered losses. Wei Yuan did not have enough vision to know clearly.
But the second airship had no obstacles and simply flew over the dock, and finally landed close to the back door of the dock. As soon as the airship landed, the door opened wide, and groups of sergeants in heavy armor and hard crossbows rushed out from inside.
, they formed an orderly queue as soon as they got off the flying boat, and took turns to advance. After the front row shot, the back row immediately rushed to catch up, and after a wave of crossbows were fired, the back row followed. In this way, rows of rows rolled forward, within a hundred feet in front.
The Liao cavalry fell in pieces, and no one could approach them.
The encirclement of Wubao was cut open, and the Liao cavalry could not run around it. They were at a loss for a moment. In the blink of an eye, they suffered heavy casualties under the rain of crossbows fired by Wubao and the flying boat warriors.
Two more flying boats appeared in the south. This time they crossed directly over the dock and came between the front cavalry of the Liao Cavalry and the rear arrow formation. First, a wave of arrow rain disrupted the arrow formation, and then they forcibly landed between the Liao Cavalry and the arrow formation.
In the meantime, the two armies were cut apart. Heavy armored crossbowmen rushed out of the flying boat and soon created a death dividing line with arrow rain.
The Liao cavalry that originally surrounded Wubao were unable to break through the blockade, and their casualties increased sharply under the attack of arrows from several directions. They had to bypass the two flying boats and retreat from both sides. The rangers who intercepted the reinforcements also had no intention of fighting, and one after another broke away and fled to the north.
Although the Liao Cavalry was defeated, the large group of Liao Cavalry seemed to be scattered. In fact, they kept moving in parallel at a constant speed, and continued to shoot arrows to the rear and left and right while retreating. The small group of Liao Cavalry fled at full speed, not entangled with the humans. The reinforcements came down from the flying boat.
They are all heavily armored crossbowmen, with invincible defense and almost no mobility. After harvesting the last wave, they can only watch the Liao cavalry retreat to the Liao territory.
Wei Yuan threw the short spear and took the last victory, leaving no rivals around.
The horse under his seat suddenly neighed, fell to the ground, and became silent. This horse had accompanied Wei Yuan throughout the entire campaign and had long since lost its strength. Now that its luck has been restored, it will die immediately.
After the battle, Wei Yuan felt his whole body was slightly sore and numb, and several places began to hurt at the same time. It turned out to be the arrow that had hit him at an unknown time.
The battlefield was littered with human and horse corpses. Puddles of blood were like scars scattered on the ground. The harsh atmosphere was everywhere and unavoidable. Many injured Beiliao knights were still struggling to crawl to the north, but they were patrolled by the battlefield.
They killed the people one by one. These people obviously hated the Liao people very much, and they were particularly cruel when they lasted. Many times they were not willing to kill with one blow, but cut off the limbs first, and then killed the head with a knife. The injured human beings were carried on horseback.
, and rushed to Wubao for treatment.
At this time, the four gates of Wubao opened wide, and a majestic voice sounded: "The Liao barbarians have retreated. Please come to Wubao with reinforcements and fellow Taoists to rest and settle your military merits!"
Calculate military merit?
Wei Yuan originally thought that all military merits would be settled after the big exam, but he did not expect that in this battle, military merits could be settled on the spot. Although there should be no difference between ending early and ending late, Wei Yuan then saw several troops speeding up in the distance.
Hurry to Wubao.
After a moment's thought, Wei Yuan understood. According to convention, disciples from each sect must return to their own sect to settle their military merits and receive rewards. However, now that the settlement is done on the spot, the military merits of the Taichu Palace are counted, and the rewards are received from the Taichu Palace.
This is very attractive to the disciples of the other three Immortal Sects, and the disciples of the next-level sects naturally flock to it.
Wei Yuan found an ownerless war horse, rode it towards Wubao, and entered Wubao after a while.
As soon as you enter the gate, you are in front of a flat avenue that can accommodate two carriages running parallel. Although the road surface is mud, it has been treated by Taoism and can be used for war horses to gallop. The avenue leads directly to the center of the Wubao, where a four-story high building stands, the tallest.
You can cross the city wall and see what's going on outside the city.
The interior of Wubao has been completely changed. All the original houses have disappeared and been replaced by temporary pavilions. At this time, there are still many arrows stuck on the roof, and some monks are pulling out arrows one by one to repair the roof.
After entering the gate, Wei Yuan felt that he had passed through an invisible boundary, and the concentration of spiritual energy around him increased linearly, and at the same time, there was a faint layer of power sweeping through his body.
There were several monks standing inside the gate. One of them took a photo of Wei Yuan with the book in his hand and said: "It turns out that he is the nephew of the Tianqing Palace Guard. To treat the injury, you can go to the medical center for treatment according to your identity, and you can calculate your military merits and perform meritorious deeds."
After entering the temple, the left hall is for the exclusive use of monks from Taichu Palace. Other sects can go to the right hall. The medical hall and the temporary merit hall are located outside on this road, next to the flying boat."
Wei Yuan originally wanted to ask a few more questions, but there was already a long queue behind him, so he entered Wubao and went to the medical clinic first. The medical clinic was already overcrowded, and Wei Yuan sat for a long time before it was his turn. However, Wei Yuan
I don’t think there’s anything to complain about. After all, everyone else seemed to be injured more seriously than myself, and a few dying people were carried in midway, so it was hard not to let others jump in the queue.
When it was finally Wei Yuan's turn, the person in charge of diagnosis and treatment was a middle-aged Taoist priest. His Taoist robe was covered in blood stains. When he stood in front of Wei Yuan, without speaking, with just a look, Wei Yuan took off his outer armor.
, unbuttoned his robe and exposed the injury.
Seeing the wound, the Taoist was immediately startled: "Four, no, five arrows! Why didn't you tell me earlier! Get the life-sustaining pills quickly! And the blue stone detoxifying powder! Get a few more bottles!"
The little Taoist priest next to him flew away and came back with several medicine bottles in his arms. Only then did the Taoist calm down and examine the wounds carefully, and was shocked again: "My nephew, your body..."
After a while, the five arrowheads were thrown into the waste bin. How were the life-sustaining pills and poisonous powders taken and sent back? There were only a few touches of light pink on the white towel used to seal the wound and absorb the blood. It didn't look like it at all.
Bloodstains.
Wei Yuan put on his armor, moved his body a little, and felt that the injury was almost healed.
The Taoist's eyes were strange and he said: "Martial nephew, your injury would be life-threatening if it were placed on others, but it should be a minor injury on you...right? But just because you are physically strong, you cannot ignore the merits of charging into the battle.
, let’s do this, I’ll report it as seriously injured or endangered, does my nephew have any objections?”
Afraid that Wei Yuan's face would not be wiped clean, the Taoist said: "The disciples of Mingwang Palace all think this way, otherwise they will make trouble."
The Taichu Palace counts meritorious contributions. In addition to the traditional killing of enemies and pioneering, hard work such as injuries are also considered meritorious service. However, the disciples of the Mingwang Palace are physically strong and can be injured by several people, so they are often sent to the most dangerous front lines. Therefore,
There is also a special way of calculating merit, and the criterion is what would happen if the injury fell on an ordinary monk. If an ordinary person is seriously injured, it will be counted as a serious injury. If an ordinary monk can die three times, it will be counted as three heads.
