a few days later.
The 5,000 Yongchang troops advancing westward encountered the first wave of enemies.
"According to the scouts, the enemy is only a part of the warband that occupies Iron Wind Fort. There are about 3,000 people, and they are 30 miles away from us..."
"Since we have the advantage in numbers, why not take the initiative and attack."
"The enemy's mobile forces seem to be completely insufficient. We can advance with infantry first, and then let the Yuyong Cavalry attack his flank or rear..."
"This plan works."
In the tent, Wei Junxiu was chatting with Zu Ju.
Next to them was Liu Li, who looked tired, and Jiang Yuan, who looked eager to fight.
Jiang Yuan was a native of Yongchang. He was already somewhat famous before joining the army, and he did not encounter any capable competitors during the selection process.
As for Liu Li, although he wanted to go through the formal procedures, Wei Junxiu felt that it was unnecessary.
The official uniform of the Governor of the Menxia Army was directly thrown to him, which made him somewhat unwelcome in the Yongchang Army.
Wei Junxiu seemed to turn a deaf ear to Liu Li and acted indifferent. He just dragged Zu Ju along to handle official business all day long.
Liu Li glanced at the two intimate people with resentment.
Zuju clearly came here with him, so why does she seem like she has become Wei Junxiu's soldier now?
"General Wei, please let me attack as the vanguard..." Jiang Yuan secretly looked at Liu Li with disdain, then bowed to Wei Junxiu and said, "Let me make the Yongchang Army famous. I will never weaken the reputation of General Wei."
Although Liu Li is the heir of the dragon, he is only known in Nan Gao.
Warhammer is not the information age of the past, where you can find the corresponding encyclopedia by searching the name.
Combined with Liu Li and Wei Junxiu's deliberate concealment, there were only a handful of people in Yongchang who knew Liu Li.
Fortunately, Yongchang did not reject Zuju, who was an alchemy master, so the only one who suffered was Liu Li.
"Don't panic, Commander Jiang. The specific plan needs to be discussed with Army Zu before we can decide."
Wei Junxiu softly refused, and Jiang Yuan had no choice but to put his hands down and wait until the two of them finished discussing.
"Xiao Zhao is so slow..." Liu Li yawned and muttered softly.
"Captain Liu is as patient as ever..." Jiang Yuan heard Liu Li muttering and said unceremoniously, "Although our Yongchang Army cannot participate in the frontal battlefield, it is also an extremely important part to stabilize the situation on the periphery. We can't take it lightly!"
Liu Li put away his expression upon hearing this, and gave a dry laugh and flattered, "Captain Jiang is right."
"You!" Seeing Liu Li's nonchalant expression, Jiang Yuan immediately lowered his voice and said, "Captain Liu, how can you be so careless on the battlefield? Didn't you hear what General Zu and General Wei said?"
"Uh, I heard it..."
"Then why are you still so relaxed? Three thousand enemy troops are right in front of us. Now is a good opportunity to make achievements... Although the Yongchang Army is a new army, we are led by a dragon descendant, which means that we are destined to be different from ordinary troops in Zhendan..."
"That's true..."
"Hey, Captain Liu, I see that you are still young and you must have never experienced the battlefield. This is not just a theory. If you are not careful, you may lose your life!"
Seeing Jiang Yun looking very disappointed with his friend, Liu Li scratched his head in embarrassment.
Although Jiang Yun's words were harsh, they did not mean any harm, which made it difficult for him to retort.
"Okay, Captain Jiang is right. It seems I must take this matter seriously."
"Hmph, that's as it should be." Jiang Yun snorted. "This time, the commander-in-chief has entrusted us with an important task for the Yongchang Army. We must perform well. Even if we don't become famous, we should at least make the commander-in-chief look at us with new eyes."
"Yes Yes."
"I see that General Wei and Army Officer Zu are talking less loudly, so they are probably preparing to go into battle... With me as the vanguard, we will surely be able to defeat the enemy easily. After all, victory in the first battle is very important..."
Jiang Yuan said happily.
Wei Junxiu recruited not only two men-in-chief, but also two others to stay in Yongchang.
Although he was puzzled as to why Wei Junxiu had to bring Liu Li with him, he changed his mind and thought, doesn't that mean he is the only capable and capable disciple of Wei Junxiu?
No matter how you look at it, Liu Li is just a show-off, with very delicate skin and the appearance of a handsome young man. It would be a wonder if he can fight.
"I really don't know what General Wei likes about him. Is he really as good as the rumors say..." Jiang Yuan thought to himself, and shook his head quickly, "No way, how could a woman like General Wei have such a hobby... That can only be a rumor..."
As he thought about it, Jiang Yuan looked at Wei Junxiu with admiration.
She is the daughter of "Dragon General" Fu Yuanshan. If she performs well enough, it is not impossible to win her heart...
In Zhendan, there are many cases of dragon descendants marrying mortals.
Although Jiang Yuan didn't dare to dream of having dragon sons and dragon heirs, he still had some ideas about dragon descendants with weak dragon blood.
After all, at least I am better than Liu Li no matter what...
"There is new information..."
Zhao Song walked quickly in from outside the tent, took a curious look at Jiang Yuan who had a lewd smile, then looked at Liu Li who looked lazy, and immediately smiled knowingly.
"How is it?" Wei Junxiu asked with a straight face.
Zhao Song coughed lightly and revealed the information: "The enemy has discovered our whereabouts and is heading towards us. It seems that they are planning to take the initiative to attack..."
"Oh? You actually want to take the initiative to attack?" Zu Ju was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "It seems that this battle is inevitable..."
"That's even better!" Wei Junxiu also smiled. "This is enough for the Yongchang Army's first battle. Let's proceed according to our agreed plan."
"can."
Hearing everyone's words, Jiang Yuan immediately became alert.
"General Wei, General Zu, are we going to attack?"
"Captain Jiang, that's right."
"Okay, I'll prepare it right away..."
"Uh..." Wei Junxiu looked at Zu Ju awkwardly after hearing this, and then explained, "Captain Jiang, don't panic. There is someone else in the vanguard."
"Oh?" Jiang Yuan was also stunned for a moment, then he let out a long sigh and said, "The outcome of the first battle has a great impact on the morale of the army. It makes sense for General Wei to go into battle personally..."
"That's not the case..." Wei Junxiu's expression became a little strange.
Her gaze passed Jiang Yuan and fell on Liu Li who was yawning.
"Liu Li, get ready. You will fight in the first battle."
"Shall I come?" Liu Li showed an expected expression.
Wei Junxiu warned: "It's better to fight quickly and avoid casualties in the first battle..."
"This condition is a bit too harsh..." Liu Li grinned and muttered, "Well, I'll try my best..."
"Well, the sooner you go, the sooner you will come back... By the way, the main force will only support you from the rear..."
"got it."
Upon hearing this, Liu Li picked up his knife and left, leaving Jiang Yuan standing in the tent in a daze.
He opened his mouth and muttered something in a voice that only he could hear.
"what's the situation?"
