"Yes, three generations of the adult family gave up their royal status in the Sai Empire and lurked in the Tianlan Empire, making full preparations for the Sai Empire's future invasion. To be honest, after I just heard this news, I really admire the person who came up with this strategy. I really don't know whether to say he is a madman or a genius." Danny said with a smile.
"Aren't madmen and geniuses always just on the front line?"
"Haha, you can also say that. That night, Lord Vanessa suddenly summoned us, told us that the shocking inside story, and then told us that the Sai Empire would invade the Tianlan Empire in a few days. I hope that we can think about the years of friendship and raise troops to rebel with him, echoing the invading army of the Sai Empire."
"Then did you all agree at that time?"
Hearing Li Yi’s question, Danny smiled bitterly and said, “What if I don’t agree? The adults are so kind to us, and we all owe them to them.”
Although Danny said this, Li Yi could feel that Danny was actually insincere. However, Li Yi did not ask, but continued to wait patiently, knowing that Danny would continue to say it.
"I have been in a high position in the Tianlan Empire over the years. I know the strength of the Tianlan Empire. It is actually difficult for the rebellion to succeed. Even if the southern Sai Army is restrained, it is impossible to compete with the empire with our troops alone. However, as the royal family of the Sai Empire, I have a fanaticism that we cannot understand towards the Sai Kingdom. In the past, I will definitely see the truth. But now I have completely ignored these things and just wanted to help the Sai Army invade the Tianlan Empire. Fortunately, I will return to my hometown in my lifetime. I am as kind as a mountain to me. Although I know that I will be defeated in this battle, I can only bite the bullet and follow the adults."
"Military Advisor Danny, I'm frank, although you always say you will help Duke Vanessa, why don't I feel it at all now? Take last night's war for example. Although you have retreated, I think that if you want to escape, it shouldn't be a difficult task."
Hearing Li Yi’s question, Danny smiled bitterly again. After a long time of silence, he spoke again: “Actually, I could have retreated, but I gave up that idea at that time. Although I was just a beggar at the beginning, my parents were all heroes who died in battle for the Tianlan Empire. What flowed in my body was the blood of the Tianlan Empire, not from their Sai Kingdom. I could die for the sake of the adults, but I don’t want to betray my own motherland because of the adults.”
Li Yi had always looked at Danny with a smile, but when he heard Danny say such words, Li Yi suddenly felt awe. In his impression, there was never a clear concept of the motherland. But he admired these truly patriotic people very much, because although they were stubborn, they were really worthy of admiration.
"Sorry, Military Advisor Danny, forgive me for being disrespectful just now." Li Yi said solemnly.
"Haha, nothing. After all, I am already a sinner who helps the evil, and I just want to apologize for death." Danny looked openly and said calmly.
Speaking of this, the two no longer had the desire to communicate. After a long silence, Li Yi personally tied up Danny and sent it to the Military Law Office.
Before leaving, Danny suddenly spoke, "Li Yi, if possible, I hope you can give the adult a decent way to die in the end. After all, he is also fighting for the motherland."
"Well, I will." Li Yi said seriously, then turned around and left.
Returning to Poyang City again, Li Yi looked at the sky in the distance and murmured: "Motherland, what is it?"
After seeing Danny off, Li Yi sighed about the matter about the motherland, and then returned to normal. Li Yi really didn't have a definite concept of the motherland. That chaotic hometown was a place he didn't want to mention at all.
Standing in Poyang City in an extremely desolate manner, Li Yi looked at the soldiers coming and going, feeling lonely.
"Li Yi, are you okay?" Just as Li Yi was in a daze, Alice suddenly appeared in front of Li Yi.
Seeing Alice, Li Yi's heart was a little cold, and finally warmed up again. He gently patted Alice's smooth forehead, and Li Yi said, "Of course it's okay, these are all small challenges."
"Tsk, stinky fart." Didn't feel anything strange about Li Yi. Seeing that Li Yi was safe and sound, Alice happily joked with Li Yi.
"Has General Luo Ning entered the city? Did he say what arrangements are next?"
"The old general has entered the city. After entering the city, he yelled to find you, saying that you have made great contributions this time. Li Yi, you are really not interested. There is such a fun thing, you didn't even call me last night." Alice said playfully. Until now, Alice still regards war as an interesting thing.
Li Yi gave Alice a thrill and said with great headache: "How many times have you told you that war is not a fun thing, why are you so careless? You think that last night was a joke, how can I guarantee that there will be no danger after you come."
Covering her forehead, Alice said aggrievedly: "I know, aren't they just kidding? You are so serious every time. You are so boring. Hehe, of course I know to be careful, but I just think it's too unpleasant to do such exciting things. If you don't call me, it's a bit too unpleasant."
"Haha, okay, if you can do such a fun thing next time, I will definitely call you and make you excited." Li Yi didn't want to blame Alice too much, and suddenly said to Alice in a good mood.
"Long live, this is what you said. You must call me next time." Alice cheered, as if she had picked up something good. She danced in front of Li Yi with her tenacious hands and feet, which immediately made Li Yi feel overwhelmed.
"Hey, Alice. I suddenly thought of something. You followed us and marched urgently. Where are you put tenaciousness in normal times?" Seeing the little panda in Alice's hand, Li Yi couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Hehe, you don't know this. Wanqiang and I have a good understanding. Don't look at it being stupid every day, it is actually smart. And I'll tell you secretly that Wanqiang is actually a third-level monster." Alice looked mysterious, as if she was talking about something special.
"Haha, what do I think is it? It's so mysterious. Well, I hope it can be more powerful and protect you in this way." Li Yi said indifferently, and he was always not interested in the monsters.
Seeing that Li Yi was not very interested, Alice stopped talking about tenacious topics. After dancing around Li Yi for a while, she suddenly stopped and said to Li Yi: "By the way, Li Yi, I suddenly remembered that before I entered the city, General Luo Ning sent someone to tell you, let me tell you after I came into the city to see you, and go to the city lord's mansion to see him."
"You really can't remember now. Haha, let's go there together, otherwise it would be meaningless for you to be here." After saying that, Li Yi stopped a passing soldier, asked the direction of the city lord's mansion, and walked towards it.
Looking at Li Yi who was walking away, Alice said sadly: "Idiot, I just want to stay alone with you for a while."
Although Poyang City has just been conquered, in order to prevent any thugs from committing crimes, the current guards of the City Lord's Mansion are still very strict. After Li Yi came to the City Lord's Mansion, he went through layers of notice before entering General Luo Ning's temporary military command office.
After entering the house, Li Yi found that several officers had sat in the house. He nodded politely to them, and Li Yi walked straight towards General Luo Ning.
"See General, the subordinate Li Yi fulfilled his mission and successfully seized the city gate last night." Li Yi saluted General Luo Ning respectfully and then said formally.
"Well, you made great contributions last night. After the war is over, I will definitely invite you to reward you when I return to the imperial capital." General Luo Ning said kindly. In his eyes, Li Yi seemed to be his child.
"Thank you for your cultivation, General. Li Yi is just working for the empire and does not ask for rewards."
"Haha, I know you don't like those things, but you always have to reward me for making merits. Let's not talk about these things for now. Come on, I'll introduce you to a few people here." General Luo Ning didn't talk much to Li Yi, and turned around to introduce the officers present to Li Yi.
After General Luo Ning's introduction, Li Yi found out that the people sitting in the house were also considered real power figures.
The military system differentiation of the Tianlan Empire is as follows: every ten people is a small team, ten squadrons are a squadron, and ten squadrons are a squadron. For example, the Second Knights led by Li Yi is a team, with ten brigades in the team. Above the team is a division, and there are ten teams in a division, and the leader of the division is called the division commander. Above the division commander is the legion commander, and generally there are no rigid regulations on the number of troops led by the legion commander. For example, the Central Army is a legion, and General Luo Ning is the legion commander of the Central Army.
The few people sitting in General Luo Ning's temporary command office today are all the division commanders in the Central Army Corps. They are all people with higher positions than Li Yi. This shows that General Luo Ning values ​​Li Yi. Li Yi was not qualified to attend the meeting of today, but General Luo Ning still summoned Li Yi and asked him to attend the meeting.
The five division commanders here are all living like spirits. Seeing that Li Yi, a small regiment commander, could guess what the old general values ​​him. So when Li Yi shook hands with them, they all smiled and didn't want to leave any bad impression on the rising star in the army.
After talking to a few division commanders with a few words, Li Yi quietly chose a seat to listen to General Luo Ning's specific arrangements for future wars.
"Now we have entered the territory of the rebels. Although this battle is extremely easy, I hope everyone will not take it lightly. After all, the old guy Vanessa is also a veteran of the battlefield. I guess he just avoided the edge of our Central Army and was ready to give us a fatal blow after our morale was slackened." General Luo Ning stood next to the map and first briefly summarized the war in Poyang City.
"There is actually no fortress to defend in the Beihua province. After all, this is not a military important place. The Vanessa rebels have no danger to defend. They will probably look for opportunities to fight against us on the plains. After all, the rebels have a lot of troops, and they still have the power to compete with us head-on. However, they are the defenders after all, and they cannot completely give up the advantage of the city wall, so we still have to focus on conquering some important towns." As he said, General Luo Ning began to point fingers on the map and said, "Lan Jucheng, it is reported that 30,000 rebels have gathered here. Randall, I order your commander to attack the city. It must be taken down within three days. Is there any problem?"
"No, general." Randall, who was named, said solemnly.
General Luo Ning nodded with satisfaction, and then pointed to several important cities on the map and laid out the arrangement. It didn't take long for General Luo Ning to distribute the troops of the four divisions. Although he didn't know why he dared to disperse his troops so boldly, Li Yi knew that this veteran general who had been in battle would never make any big mistakes.
When the veteran general assigned the task, Li Yi asked, "General, do you know what tasks our Knights have?"
"Haha, several knights and direct teams are on standby with me in the middle to prepare for future troubles." General Luo Ning said lightly.
After everything was explained, everyone left the temporary command office one after another. General Luo Ning did not leave Li Yi, and the meeting that day ended like this.
After returning to the army, Li Yi also gave a few simple explanations, and then he was on standby, waiting for the future war to proceed.
Early the next morning, the forces of other divisions were arranged by General Luo Ning and drove in different directions. After several divisions were separated and exposed, Li Yi did not feel any changes in the troops. There was no difference between 100,000 and 500,000 people, and they were all the same and could not see at a glance.
At this time, Li Yi had become General Luo Ning's direct confidant. Although he was just a regiment commander, General Luo Ning always kept Li Yi by his side during the march, hoping that Li Yi could increase his military knowledge as soon as possible through what he saw and heard.
Although Li Yi was not keen on this, General Luo Ning was kind-hearted and had to pretend to be flattered and listen to some military terms that the old general often said in his ears.
After the other divisions and regiments operated for two days, Li Yi followed the remaining 100,000 troops and hurried towards the center of Beihua Province. He encountered many small-scale wars on the road, including some defeated soldiers who retreated from other cities. Faced with these soldiers who had no fighting spirit, General Luo Ning did not make too much trouble for them. Most of them were mainly recruited. Occasionally, he met some rebels who were preparing to resist to the end. General Luo Ning was not ruthless. With a wave of his hand, he would die tragically under the iron hooves of several knights.
Encountering battles on the plains is almost equivalent to a war tailored for Li Yi. As long as he meets a soldier who is not surrendered, Li Yi will often take the lead, and the speed will be reduced to these ungrateful idiots.
Li Yi does not like to bully the weak, but in his heart, this world is like this. These people die in the hands of others and die in their own hands, and maybe they can also help themselves.
During the march, Li Yi never forgot his purpose when he chose to come to the army, hoping that the killing aura on the battlefield could be helpful on his cultivation path.
