Chapter 126 The Salted Fish Princess Will Not Be Cannon Fodder (37)

Seeing Jiang Ling leave, Jiang Lai, who was sleepy to death, lay down again and slept for a while before getting up, tying up his hair and sneaking out through the backyard door.

With Little Pudding here, she cleverly and flexibly snatched away all the secret guards Jiang Ling arranged here. After leaving the courtyard, she went straight to the street to buy men's clothes, put a beard on herself, and wiped some yellow mud on her face. After thickening his eyebrows and narrowing his eyes, if you look at yourself, you will almost look like an inconspicuous man among the crowd.

Jiang Lai arrived at the military gathering ground. It was already filled with a dark group of people. At the far end were the generals and deputy generals ordering troops, in the middle were regular cavalry, followed by infantry, and at the end were skirmishers without even clothes. They were all Those who came to replenish the number of people took a weapon from home and followed them to the battlefield.

After all, the country is now powerful and prosperous. Although there are many wars, under the leadership of Jiang Xiong and his son, they are almost always victorious and have a mythical existence. Now many men in the country want to serve as soldiers to defend their country and gain military glory. They already hope to rely on In a war, a reward of silver and land will be obtained. The army will not require so many people, but it will give them a chance.

Just like now, after finding out the identity, you will not be given weapons or armor, and you will leave it to fate on the battlefield. If you can get one of the enemy's heads, you can use it to exchange for the status of a regular army.

Jiang Lai used this to sneak in, holding a kitchen knife in his hand. Anyway, it would be enough to have a weapon.

The army set off in great force.

Jiang Ling, who was walking in the front, was riding an exceptionally powerful and tall black horse. Jiang Xiong, who was beside him, looked back at home twice, and then gave an order to set off.

Jiang Lai mingled with the stragglers and followed the troops. The kitchen knife in her hand looked extremely cold, so she had no choice but to stick the kitchen knife in her waist and continue walking resignedly.

The elder brother next to him was carrying big and small bags like a mountain, but he was not too tired. On the contrary, he was in high spirits and excited and kept talking to the people around him. He didn't look like someone going to war, but like a child on a spring outing.

"Hey, how old are you? If you are so thin and come to fight, you will definitely have no future. One of the requirements for our major general to select elite soldiers from the skirmishers is to be physically strong. Look at you, you are as good as me. The meat is in vain, and your life may be lost in vain.”

Jiang came and looked at him.

He is indeed as strong as a bear, either tall and muscular like Jiang Ling, or simply strong and honest with thick limbs, which makes him look powerful.

"You know the Major General very well?"

"Of course! I have fought three battles with the Major General! The Major General is so brave that he can sweep thousands of armies on the battlefield!"

"Then do you know that when a major general promotes elite soldiers, he not only looks at their physique but also their brains? Don't you think about why after three battles, he is still just a skirmisher?"

The man asked seriously.

"Why?"

"Because you lack a strategist like me who can give you advice! You have the strength and I have the brains. On the battlefield, you are responsible for killing the enemy and I am responsible for picking up the heads. As soon as we report the military merits, we will be in the spirit. Barracks!”

The man's eyes lit up when he heard about the elite military camp. Although he felt something was wrong, he nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"Okay! Little brother, are you tired of carrying your things? Give them to me and I will help you get them!"

"The eldest brother is indeed very powerful. The younger brother admires me!"

As he said that, Jiang Lai piled all the things he brought on him. As expected, it would be much easier to leave next time.

"Brother, you still don't know your name? My name is Zhao Hu, what about you?"

"My name is Jia Ming."

"Jia Di."

"Brother Zhao!"

On the battlefield, Zhao Hu was indeed brave. He used the two big axes in his hands to chop at anyone he saw. Fortunately, Jiang Lai hid quickly, otherwise he would have chopped him down like he was chopping vegetables.

After the chop was done, the man didn't look back at all, he continued to chop, and kept charging forward with strength and ferocity. Jiang Lai followed behind and picked up the head. He could hardly hold it in his hand, but there was someone next to him who wanted a piece of the pie. Jiang Lai hurriedly call out.

"Brother!! Someone is trying to steal someone's head!"

When Zhao Hu heard this, he swung his ax and turned around to continue slashing, scaring the people around him and fleeing in all directions.

Jiang Lai picked up a cart on the way, and simply put the head on the cart and followed Zhao Hu, and sprinkled a handful of poison when an enemy approached.

In this way, the first round of fighting ended, and the soldiers began to report their merits. Jiang Lai and Zhao Hu jumped into the elite camp with thirteen heads each, and divided their armor and weapons. The tent where they were stationed was also much closer to the general's tent. When they made a fire to eat in the evening, Jiang Lai could finally see Jiang Ling and Jiang Xiong.

Zhao Hu rubbed his armor excitedly and trusted Jiang Lai even more.

"I joined the army so many times before but couldn't get in. Once you come, I can become an elite soldier! Thanks to you, brother!"

Jiang Lai nodded and silently took away the meat in the bowl in front of him.

"Aren't we partners? You're welcome. It's all what I should do."

"Let's continue to cooperate in the next battle! Try to earn more money and land to go back and marry a wife!"

"Well, earn money and marry a wife!"

This Zhao Hu is simple-minded and courageous. He only knows how to kill enemies on the battlefield but does not know how to take merit. There are so many people behind him waiting to take advantage of him, but he still knows nothing about it.

Jiang felt a little guilty for lying to him, so he silently gave him another bite of meat that was not tasty and put it back.

In the evening, Jiang Lai and Zhao Hu were arranged to go on vigil patrol as new recruits. Jiang Lai followed the patrol team upright and stood guard in front of the general's tent.

Jiang Xiong seemed to be injured. The person inside came out with a basin of bloody water, and there was an arrow in the water.

The weather was so cold that Jiang Lai could hear Jiang Xiong's coughing outside. She silently moved closer and took a look inside while the military doctor was coming in and out.

Jiang Ling was also inside, discussing something with Jiang Xiong.

"In the next battle, we will go to the vicinity of Chu State to help it quell the civil strife. After all, we have a good relationship with Chu State. This time, the king of Chu State gave three cities in exchange. Your Majesty attaches great importance to this battle. We must not lose."< br>


"Well, dad, the source of this civil strife in Chu State should be the remnant forces of the previous dynasty. Now that the former dynasty forces are about to attack the city, will it be too risky for us to take action at this time?"

Jiang Xiong spoke firmly.

"This is your Majesty's order. The only thing we have to do is to obey the order and send reinforcements to Chu. We will win this battle quickly, and maybe we can go back in time to celebrate the New Year."

Jiang Ling was silent for a while and then said.

"Well, let's make a quick decision and go back to celebrate the New Year."

Jiang Lai sighed while listening outside.

To support the Chu State, wouldn't it be equivalent to entering the lair of the Jiang Ling people?

How could Jiang Xiong know that the real culprit behind the civil strife in Chu was Jiang Ling, who was determined to regain the Chu Kingdom and regain the throne. (End of chapter)
