"Well, okay, let's not talk about the frustrating things in the past. Then, if I guess correctly, the Central Army in this Jingchuan Province should be your power. Not bad, you, after years of exhibitions, you are now considered a prince." Li Yi said jokingly with a punch from Mel.
After being punched by Li Yi, Mel couldn't help but complain again. After complaining, she smiled and said to Li Yi: "Hehe, regiment commander, this is not something I'm going to brag. Over the years, we brothers are famous for being able to fight in Jingchuan Province. If we should say it, none of the soldiers from our Central Army are cowards. Although the Central Army now has only one city and tens of thousands of soldiers, if we say which force dares to force us, we will definitely not make them feel good." Speaking of the Central Army, Mel couldn't help but dance.
Seeing Mel's excited look, Li Yi did not hit him. Turning his eyes to Mel's back, Li Yi asked faintly: "I said that when I saw this cavalry unit just now, Isn't the formation they are commonly used in the Central Army? Come on, tell me, are there any veterans who followed us in the team behind you?"
After Li Yi asked this, Mel's high mood just now couldn't help but feel depressed again. Looking back at the troops behind him, Mel said sadly: "There were more than 30,000 people who followed us to fight against the Tianlan Empire. Basically, the veterans who could go out of the Senna Royal City with the regiment commander and rebelled with us. However, after years of struggle, there are only a few thousand people who have stayed. There are only more than 2,000 people in the cavalry unit behind him, and they are veterans in the Second Knights."
Hearing Mel's words, Li Yi's emotions were also depressed. He reached out and patted Mel's shoulder gently. Li Yi said calmly: "Okay, Mel, casualties are always inevitable in war. To be realistic, even if you did not rebel against the Tianlan Empire, most of you would die in the battlefield because of the war. This fate is irresistible. Unless they can stay away from the battlefield, but in this war-torn world, it is not easy to live a life without fighting with the world."
Listening to Li Yi's comfort, Mel nodded gently. She put away her emotions. Mel quickly recovered to the cheerfulness she had just now, and said to Li Yi with a smile: "Haha, what the leader said is, why did I suddenly become a sissy? Let's go, Commander, although many brothers died, there are still so many old brothers who are still alive after all. I'll take you to see them. If they see that Commander, you are still alive, they might be so happy."
"What are you still alive? Do you always think I'm dead?" Li Yi said angrily at Mel with a pretended angrily.
"Hehe, Sao Rui, Sao Rui, please calm down. I'm just talking casually, don't forget to go to your heart." Seeing Li Yi's expression, Mel couldn't help but say with a smirk.
However, Li Yi was not really angry because of Mel's words. After all, Li Yi was in a good mood when he saw this old subordinate.
In the Wu'an Legion, Yad watched Li Yi talking to the black-armored general for a while, and actually followed the other party to the cavalry unit. Seeing this scene, Yad couldn't help but whisper to Pat: "Brother Pat, Li Yi is not sick, right? Why don't you even fight with us? You dare to follow the other party to the other party's camp? It's over, Li Yi suddenly felt that he could not compete with the Dalin Legion, and temporarily surrendered to other people's forces here. It's over, it's over, how could Li Yi, this idiot, do such shameless things."
Yad said it was harsh, just as his guess was true.
Looking at the crazy Yaddy, Pat couldn't help but feel funny, and then he laughed and cursed, "Get out, you can see everything clearly, just guessing here. After seeing Li Yi, the black-armored officer shouted loudly, "Captain, do you still remember me?" If I guessed well, this guy should be Li Yi's acquaintance back then. After communicating, the two still have their identities. That's why Li Yi dared to follow the other party to walk into the other party's team unscrupulously, otherwise, do you think that with Li Yi's personality, would you do such unsure things?"
Unexpectedly, Pat, who has always been calm, analyzed the matter so thoroughly at this time. Listening to Pat's analysis, Yadie nodded repeatedly, and then put away the crazy words he had just said. Just staring at Li Yi's back, Yadie couldn't help but mutter: "Who is it? Could it be Li Yi's subordinate back then?"
However, Li Yi could not hear a word from Yad and Pat's speculation at this time. After following Mel walked to the front of the cavalry unit and stood firm, Mel whispered to Li Yi: "Captain, there are 10,000 people in this cavalry unit. I formed it based on the Second Knights of that year. Because you are no longer here, I have always served as the commander of this Knights. Now I finally met you, the commander. Now I will give the position of this regiment commander to you."
Standing in front of this cavalry unit, Li Yi was still in high spirits. But when he heard Mel's words, Li Yi immediately spoke, "Mel, what are you doing? Now, you are also the leader of the Knights. How can you speak so irresponsible? Your brothers should have followed you through life and death. How can you say that you can give it to me? How can a man be so ungrateful?"
Looking at Li Yi's sudden serious expression, Mel was stunned at first. Then she said with a smile: "Hehe, what are you saying, Commander, what are you saying? Leaving these brothers to you, this is my responsibility. I know that under the leadership of Commander, we can truly exert our strength. Okay, Commander, let's not talk about this for now, let's meet the old brothers in the past first." After that, Mel did not give Li Yi a chance to speak again, but shouted loudly to the army: "Brothers, I will introduce you to someone today. This person should be very familiar to some of you."
Hearing Mel's shout, the cavalry in the Knights whispered. After a while of chaos, another cavalry dressed as an officer came out of the team and said to Mel in confusion: "General Mel, who is this person? Does it have any old age to our Central Army?"
When he heard the other party’s question, Mel smiled mysteriously. Then he whispered to the other party: “Hehe, Revey, this person is the leader I have been talking to you. Didn’t you say you wanted to see him before? Now he is here. Don’t you take a good look?”
Hearing Mel's words, Reve's eyes lit up. He walked to Li Yi and said to Li Yi with a little excitement: "Are you the leader of the Second Knights that General Mel often mentions? The leader of the Li Yi who led 100,000 troops to rush into the Senna Royal City?"
Lei Wei's voice was not very loud, but Li Yi still heard the excitement from his tone. He touched his nose awkwardly, and Li Yi smiled and said, "Hehe, I don't have so many names. Just call me Li Yi, and I don't have to mention the little things I used to."
Seeing Li Yi say this, Lei Wei also knew that the man with a scar on his left eye in front of him was the Commander Li Yi, whom General Mel had always praised. Although he had never seen this man with his own eyes, Lei Wei knew that Li Yi must not be simple.
However, before Rewei could say a few more words to Li Yi, a chaos broke out behind him.
It turned out that after Lei Wei was excited to speak out Li Yi's identity, the veterans of the former Second Knights who had been quiet in the cavalry team also heard his words. When they learned that Li Yi would appear again, they immediately rushed forward.
After seeing Li Yi's iconic scar and Yitouhua clearly, these veterans shouted loudly at Li Yi excitedly: "Captain, Commander, you are finally back. Do you still remember me? Commander, I am Rice, the captain of the Fifth Brigade back then."
"Captain, I'm Hank."
"I am Paul, the commander of the regiment. I served as a guard for you for a while back then."
Looking at the extremely excited cavalry in front of him, even though Li Yi had always been as firm as iron, he couldn't help but feel moved at this time.
Looking at the cavalry excitedly, Li Yi took a deep breath and said loudly: "Brothers, I, Li Yi, are back."
After revealing his identity in front of Meier and greetings with some of his former old subordinates, Li Yi's reputation in the cavalry unit of the Central Army immediately increased. After all, most of the people in this team had never seen Li Yi, but their general Meier has always been obsessed with Li Yi, and often talked about Li Yi's might and loyalty with his subordinates.
So although this was the first time Li Yi showed up in front of the Central Army's team, Li Yi was like a general who had always existed in the eyes of these Central Army cavalry.
When Mel saw Li Yi, he was not at all taboo. He immediately knew that Li Yi was careless and did not set up defenses in Rhone City, so he did not hesitate at all. He took his ten thousand cavalry regiments and followed Li Yi back to Rhone City first.
After entering the city, Mel said to Li Yi with a loud voice: "I said, the commander, you are really good. I have been to Jingchuan Province for so many years, and I don't have the chance to actually go to Rona City to see it. I didn't expect that you just came here for a few days and turned this place into your hometown. The commander is still very good."
Seeing that Mel started to put on a high hat on himself as soon as he entered the city, Li Yi waved his hand to stop Mel from continuing. Instead, he said calmly: "There are many factors that can take down Rhone so quickly. First, Mrs. Lor had already started to plot against the Rhone Legion, and second, because when we were sieging the city, the Rhone Legion was careless and underestimated the enemy. As a result, we successfully attacked the night in the night and took down the place."
Li Yi never thought it was something worth showing off when it comes to capturing Rhone City. So even when facing his old subordinate who had not seen him for many years, Li Yi did not look arrogant when he described this matter.
Seeing Li Yi's unpride and impatient appearance, Mel couldn't help but give a thumbs up secretly, and then said seriously: "Then, commander, I heard you talk a lot along the way. In other words, you are just doing things for the Wu'an Legion. The Margaret from the small country of Wu'an was now your immediate boss?"
"Well, I can say that although I have more than 70,000 soldiers and horses in my hands now, I am quite strong in Jingchuan Province. But in the final analysis, these people and horses belong to the Wu'an Legion, not mine." Li Yi did not cover up the problem at all, and bluntly stated that he is now a subordinate of Margaret.
Although Li Yi was very dull when he narrated, Mel was a little unhappy after listening to it. He looked at the troops of the Wu'an Legion with a cold look. Mel whispered to Li Yi: "Captain, please tell me, just take these people under your command and directly set up your own flag now. Seventy thousand people, plus this Rhone City, are enough for you to become a domineering in Jingchuan Province. If anyone among these people really dissatisfied, then I will directly transfer people from the Central Army to kill them."
After hearing Mel's words, Li Yi was stunned. He looked at Mel with a strange look, and after a long silence, he whispered: "Mel, what are you talking about? Margaret trusted me at the beginning and handed over this army to me. How could I do such a thing? Aren't you trapping me injustice?"
However, Mel obviously didn't care about Li Yi's stubbornness. After staying in this Jingchuan province for too long, Mel knew the tricks. And Mel had never had contact with that Margaret back then. Mel was not a real reckless man. During the days when he came into contact with Margaret back then, he also saw that this woman was an ambitious person.
Since she has the whole world, she naturally has this courage and insight. Mel is very clear about the situation in Jingchuan Province. When she was on the road just now, Li Yi told Mel that the real strength of the Wu'an Legion was not concealed at all.
However, although Margaret's military strength has increased dramatically due to the division of troops back then, it is undeniable that Margaret's real control is less than 50,000 now, while the other forces are truly in the hands of Li Yi.
Now Li Yi is a general who is respectful. He not only holds heavy troops, but also sticks to a city. If Margaret now has no concerns about Li Yi, it is impossible to say that nothing is possible.
Once the leader of a legion is suspicious, it is definitely not good to wait for the general's fate. At the least, it is deprived of military power, and at the worst, it is to kill in secret.
Although Li Yi is relied on his strength and will definitely not be plotted by Margaret. However, after all, Li Yi urgently needs such strength now, so he doesn't want Margaret to hinder his progress because of this suspicion.
After talking to Mel for a long time, Li Yi and the others finally didn't come up with any good solution. It was just like Li Yi and the others' conversation in the city lord's mansion a few days ago. Li Yi could only hope that Margaret would not restrain Li Yi's hands and feet because of suspicion.
And even when facing this situation now, Li Yi clearly told Meer that it would definitely be impossible to change the flag with these 70,000 troops.
