Painted Skin: Girl Monster Hunter

Xijiang is the western frontier of the Celestial Dynasty. The environment is harsh, the sky is full of sand and dust, sometimes it is overcast, and the wind is so strong that people can't even open their eyes.

The western border is mostly rocky and sandy soil. Except for the natural moat of Yunjie City, there are continuous sand dunes and desert soil except for a few earthen cities. Water sources are extremely scarce, and the amount of water that the soldiers stationed at the border gates can drink every day is limited.When setting up camp, it is good to say that the military supply department accompanying the army will still distribute water, but there is no such convenient condition when marching.

Some soldiers lived on the roots of plants growing in the sand, while some soldiers were forced to drink the urine of themselves or their mounts in order to survive.Many inexperienced recruits couldn't keep up with the team, and couldn't find water to drink, so they died of thirst on the sandy Gobi desert.

This battle with the expelled barbarians tested not only the ability of the generals of the two nations to use soldiers, but also the quality of the soldiers.

Rong Zhu played a big game of chess. Over the past ten years or so, Rong Zhu Ye Wang has always talked with the emperor as a loser, and sent envoys to Beijing to pay tribute every year.This kind of behavior is no different from that of the foreign kingdoms of the Celestial Dynasty, but in fact, the melting king has been secretly recruiting and training soldiers.The Melters grew up on horseback, and most of the Melters have adapted to this harsh climate long ago.

A few years ago, Ye Wang felt that the time had come and the Celestial Dynasty gradually lowered its guard, and the Emperor's attitude towards Meltdown was no longer so resistant.And judging from the situation of the smuggling spies who have been lurking in the Chinese Empire for many years: the internal space of the Chinese Empire is empty, the rich and the poor are clearly distinguished, and the perennial prosperity and stability have made official corruption very serious. , miserable.The imperial court wanted to rectify but couldn't do anything about it. It was like a worm was born in an excellent cabbage, slowly rotting from the inside out.Even if there is no external force, the poor people at the bottom will rise up sooner or later.

As soon as Ye Wang gave an order, Rong Zhu blew the horn to declare war on the Celestial Dynasty.

After that, [-] iron cavalry entered from the west, easily smashed the pass on the border of the western border of the Celestial Empire, and killed all the soldiers who were just waiting to die.Afterwards, he stepped into the hinterland of western Xinjiang and repeatedly robbed cities and property, captured women, and arrested strong men to work as coolies.

By the time the Emperor of China received the urgent report, China had already lost three cities.

It's really internal and external troubles, and the emperor is ten years old overnight.Later, there was the matter of King Qing's personal conquest.

After King Qing took command, he immediately discussed with the emperor that the military strength in the western border was not enough to resist the iron hooves, and it was necessary to mobilize troops from various counties in the Celestial Dynasty.

As soon as the order to deploy troops was issued, countless soldiers left their homes and embarked on the long journey to the west.In some places, due to the shortage of troops, they temporarily seconded or recruited soldiers, and included people who were not in the army.

The 15 army plus the more than 20 troops originally stationed in the western Xinjiang had a total strength of nearly 20.This figure sounded scary at first glance, as if they were sure of victory, but it was only when they got to the battlefield that they discovered that among the 8 soldiers, only [-] or [-] were really useful.

Not to mention those who are not acclimatized to the environment, vomiting and diarrhea as soon as they go to the western border, and many people have not received formal training at all. If they barely go to the battlefield, their teeth chatter, their legs tremble, and they are terribly scared.

When the two soldiers met, even though the Celestial Dynasty had the advantage in numbers, they were still retreating steadily.
