Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 202 The Broken Military Flag

In the Nanchuan military camp outside Keluo City, all the officers above the Banner Regiment of the First Corps were sitting in the Corps Headquarters, listening carefully to Liu Erhu telling how the former First Corps and the Second Banner Regiment went from being invincible to finally annihilated. .

The officers sitting here and the officers of the Second Banner Regiment are very familiar with it. Hearing that the comrades of the Second Banner Regiment were beheaded by the cruel Jiuyuan garrison and piled up into human heads, they felt complicated.

Listening to Liu Erhu's narration, they felt angry and regretful, with different expressions on their faces. For the Second Banner Regiment, shame and hatred are no longer important. After all, they have already paid the price for their frivolity. The price of blood.

But for the living soldiers, the annihilation of the Second Banner Regiment was a provocation to the First Corps and the entire Nanchuan Army, which they could not tolerate.

"Ye Fei...is he still alive?" Although Sith was very angry at Ye Fei's arrogance, he still couldn't help asking Liu Erhu.

Liu Erhu: "The head of Ye Feiqi was beheaded, and the army was defeated like a mountain. Our scout team ran out after him."

"The other scout brothers sacrificed themselves to protect me..." Liu Erhu lowered his head, his words filled with deep guilt.

"Later, I was rescued by Murong Ke's rebel army, and I kept trying to send news back, but the imperial army blocked it too tightly and failed."

"Are there no other members of the Second Banner Regiment survived besides you?" Sith asked with a frown.

Liu Erhu replied: "It was night, and there were quite a few people who escaped, but later the Dynasty army searched around Keluo City, and most of them were beheaded and hung on the top of Keluo City, only a few dozen People were rescued by the rebels just like me."

Xiao Zhan hurriedly asked: "Where are they now?"

"Five people died in the battle with the dynasty army, and the rest are still in the rebel army, and the rebel army is near us."

"Okay, go down and have a rest first, let us think about it." Sith said.

Liu Erhu stood up and said, "General, I'll wait for you outside. I know there is a tunnel leading to the city. If necessary, I will lead the way."

"Thank you, Liu Erhu, head of thousands of people, I think we will use it." Sith said with a smile.

After Liu Erhu was taken down, Sith asked everyone: "How credible do you think what he said?"

After pondering, Xiao Zhan said: "I still know what Liu Erhu is like. He has always been loyal to our Nanchuan Army."

Feng Qingyang analyzed: "I don't think Liu Erhu has the need to lie to us. Even if the tunnel is a trap, it won't cause too much loss to us."

Mu Xue nodded: "Didn't he say that there are still dozens of soldiers from the Second Banner Regiment surviving? Besides, they are nearby. Why don't you call them over and interrogate them separately? I think the truth will be revealed soon."

After everyone's unanimous discussion, Liu Erhu was soon brought into the military tent again.

Sith smiled and stretched out his hand to Liu Erhu: "Liu Erhu, commander of a thousand soldiers, I now welcome you to return to the army in the name of the commander of the First Corps."

When Liu Erhu heard these words, thinking of all the despair and hardships he had faced before, he couldn't hold back his tears anymore.

Xiao Zhan smiled and reminded: "Huzi, why are you crying?"

While wiping his tears, Liu Erhu stretched out his hand to hold Sith's hand and said loudly: "Liu Erhu, the thousand-man commander of the Second Banner Regiment's scouting team, has been ordered to return to the team!"

Everyone was moved by Liu Erhu's return to the team. After all, a veteran who was isolated and helpless behind the enemy, still did not forget the army.

Sith said: "Two Tigers, now the Second Banner Regiment is gone. You know that the military flag has been lost. The establishment of the Second Banner Regiment is in accordance with the regulations. It will be revoked. You will stay in the Corps and be directly under the Guard."

Liu Erhu became anxious when he heard this: "General, the Second Banner Regiment cannot be revoked! I have to avenge my brother who died—"

As if thinking of something, Liu Erhu hurriedly took off his robe amidst everyone's confusion, and turned around.

It was only then that everyone realized that there was a broken military flag sewn on the back of the robe.

Liu Erhu presented the broken military flag to Sith with both hands and said: "General, the flag of the Second Banner Regiment is not lost."

Sith took over the broken military flag that had been baptized by the flames of war, feeling very complicated. This is the blood of [-] soldiers.

Xiao Zhan stood up: "General Sith, since the flag of the Second Banner Regiment is here, let's report it to General Lin, we cannot live without the Second Banner Regiment."

"Okay, well done, Erhu, you didn't embarrass our First Corps." Sith said happily, patting Liu Erhu on the shoulder.

If the First Corps lost the Second Banner Regiment forever because of the loss of the military flag, then for the First Corps, this would be a shame that could never be washed away.

Now Liu Erhu has brought back the military flag, which means the reconstruction of the Second Banner Regiment.

Soon, under the leadership of Liu Erhu, Sith and the others found the rebel army that rescued them.

This is a rebel army composed of ethnic minorities. They are one of the active armed forces resisting the dynasty army in Jiuyuan province. Dare to provoke them easily.

One of their most notable characteristics is that they belong to a branch of the Tata tribe, who are good at using scimitars, and are called scimitar cavalry by the dynasty army.

The scimitar cavalry has always been the nightmare of the guards of Jiuyuan Province. They are powerful in combat and come and go without a trace.

The dynasty army once sent cavalry troops to encircle and suppress the scimitar cavalry of the Tata tribe, so now this group of scimitar cavalry is in a difficult situation.

"General, they want to join our Nanchuan Army. I have already agreed to them, and please punish me." Liu Erhu pleaded to Sith.

Sith pulled Liu Erhu up with a smile: "It's a good thing to strengthen our Nanchuan Army. How could I punish you? I want to reward you."

Seeing these sturdy scimitar cavalrymen, Sith had already developed a heart of love for talents, and wanted to recruit them, but he didn't expect that Liu Erhu had already agreed to them, and he was immediately very happy.

This scimitar cavalry has only more than 1000 soldiers, but each of them is rebellious and sturdy. The leader is a heroic young man named Murong Ke.

"Brother Erhu, has your general agreed to us?" Murong Ke felt apprehensive when he saw Liu Erhu approaching, and couldn't wait to grab Liu Erhu and asked.

Although the cavalry led by Murong Ke are powerful, they are also in a difficult situation. Not only are they lacking in weapons and equipment, but they can't even eat enough. After Murong Ke's father died in battle, Murong Ke has been looking for a strong backer , Now it is urgent to join the Nanchuan Army and improve the life of the tribe.

Liu Erhu laughed: "My brother, our general has already agreed."

Murong Ke gave Liu Erhu a big hug: "Brother Erhu, I thank you on behalf of the three thousand women and children of our tribe, you saved us."

After some discussions, Murong Ke led him to lead a thousand cavalry from the Tata tribe to join the Nanchuan Army and be incorporated into Wu Jing's Fifth Cavalry Banner Regiment, and the Nanchuan Army would provide shelter and food to the families of these soldiers.

Although more than 1000 women and children are a big burden for the Nanchuan Army, seeing the strong cavalry, Sith felt that this time it was not a loss.

After recruiting Murong Ke's cavalry, the cavalry of the First Corps further expanded. Wu Jing originally only had [-] cavalry under his command, but now he is so happy that he can't hear it from ear to ear.

After solving all the problems, it was already midnight, but the generals of the First Corps did not rest and were ready for battle, because Liu Erhu had already led a vanguard team composed of powerful sergeants into the city of Keluo along a secret tunnel, Prepare to seize the city gate...
