Supreme Martial Soul

Chapter 207 Serving as Grand Marshal

Lou Xuanxuan returned to the empire.

She was soft and tough by her father's side, but she couldn't convince the king.

Although the king is not a wise king, major war matters should not be so trifling as to let his daughter make a decision on a whim. They must be discussed by the Central Book Department and the Central Taiwei before making a decision.

The clever Lou Xuanxuan took some treasures and found the senior officials of the Central Book Department, and invited some eloquent politicians to join in.

If so, after discussing the state affairs, a large group of people proposed to let Long Jiangtian become the commander-in-chief of Xijiang, and let him go to pacify Xijiang.

It doesn't matter who they want to pacify the western border. The people of the western regions are tall and aggressive, and each general is extremely brave. If the famous generals of the Tianzhou kingdom are allowed to take action, the loss may be huge. Moreover, they also need a person to fight the charge , Let’s get to know the Western Xinjiang area first, and then it won’t be too late for famous generals to take action!
After all, it was too remote, and many famous generals were unwilling to be the first to stand out. If they went there, they would definitely lose nine out of ten battles, which would damage their title of ever-victorious general.

Due to various reasons, Long Jiangtian became their scapegoat.

Lou Duan naturally knew about this matter, but he was also half supportive of Long Jiangtian's going. Firstly, he wanted Long Jiangtian to make further military achievements, and secondly, he could allow Long Jiangtian to occupy an important position in the court. At that time, his appeal in the inner sect of the Long family will naturally be greatly improved.

This is a talent that cannot be covered by the name of a genius.

The reason why half agreed and the other half opposed was because Long Jiangtian might not be able to make meritorious service if he went this time, but if he didn't go, he would definitely have no chance to make military meritorious service again.

I don't know when it will be next time.

The poor Long Jiang genius came out of the customs, and he didn't have a good rest, so the empire sent a holy talisman.

If Long Jiangtian was in his own name, he could completely ignore the empire's call, but he still has a family, and he has already thought out this path for himself, so he must go to the end.

After Long Jiangtian received the holy talisman, Lou Xiner was willing to go back with Long Jiangtian.

At the same time, Long Jiangtian also returned to Zhongyuan, taking Shougu with him.

In terms of strategy, Shougu is a military genius. With him, many things can be relieved.

After finishing these things, Long Jiangtian immediately went to the teleportation formation of the empire and set off for the western border.

The teleportation formations of the empire are open to all continents, but the teleportation formations can only transmit generals and others, and cannot be transmitted in large numbers, and there are restrictions on transmission. Otherwise, the war will become extremely easy if the troops are transmitted from the continents of the imperial capital.

When Long Jiangtian came to the court, the court asked him what kind of military genius Long Jiangtian needed. Long Jiangtian didn't need it because he didn't trust these people.

But Lou Duan gave him a few lists, so he appointed four great masters, Dutong, to be named Generals of Xijiang, and then set off together.

Entering the teleportation field, Long Jiangtian saw Lou Xuanxuan and her bodyguard.

"Why are you here? If you're here to see him off, there's no need." Long Jiangtian said angrily to Lou Xuanxuan.

"Who said I'm here to see you off? I'm the deputy commander!"

As Lou Xuanxuan said, she took out a holy talisman in her hand, Long Jiangtian glanced at it, and couldn't help but frowned.

"Are you here to make trouble?"

"King Jiuling, you can't look down on people. Since I am the deputy commander, I naturally have my talent. Are you questioning my father's decision?"

When Long Jiangtian saw Lou Xuanxuan talking like this, he understood that the reason why he became the commander of Xijiang should be caused by this girl behind his back.

"Deputy Commander, right? You still have to listen to me. When you arrive in Xijiang, you'd better give me a place, otherwise if something happens, I will..."

Before Long Jiangtian finished speaking, Lou Xuanxuan answered, "I don't need your protection!"

"I didn't say I want to protect you, what I mean is, if you reveal any military tricks, I won't be polite to you, even if you are the first princess!" Long Jiangtian said seriously.

Lou Xuanxuan rolled her eyes angrily at these words.

"I won't make any noise, I'm here to help!"

"I hope it's not getting more and more helpful!"

As Long Jiangtian said, he walked directly into the teleportation formation, and the rest of the people also walked over.

Lou Xuanxuan looked at Lou Xiner with slanted eyes.

Lou Xiner ignored her, after all, the difference in strength between them was too great, there was no need for Lou Xiner to pay attention to her.

With the shining of the teleportation array, they have already appeared in the Zhoufu of Xijiang.

This area of ​​Western Xinjiang is about three times behind Central Continent, and the remote cities are even less comparable to Jiuling City. Now there is no lord established, and it is still a city lord and a family-based state.

Now that the frontier incident happened, the Xijiang Taiwei has been raising a [-] army. This [-] army is used to deal with possible wars at any time.

But after Long Jiangtian came here, he discovered that the ten major armies raised here were really just "raised", because there had been no war for a long time, and the armies raised by each prefecture were almost nothing. , I don’t usually practice much, and my discipline is too low.

In the first few battles, the local Taiwei led troops to the field, but they were defeated in three battles and lost seven or eight thousand!
Now the morale of the army is in turmoil, and the army's salary is urgent.

As soon as Long Jiangtian and the others came, it immediately became their lifesaver.

Although when Long Jiangtian came over, he already had the military pay that the imperial court pulled out, but Long Jiangtian was not willing to just send it down like this.

He first met the local Taiwei and other generals. Most of these generals were at the early stage of the Grand Master, and even the strength of the Taiwei was only at the late stage of the Grand Master.

These are not the key points, they are all equipped with weapons, but the military spirit is lazy, they have never encountered a war before, and they have been in a state of slack.

As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, but all of their soldiers are actually used as rice buckets!

In the military conference hall, the local Taiwei army reported their military situation to Long Jiangtian one by one, and then each of them looked ashamed.

"Marshal Jiuling, the enemy army is too fierce. Our army has lost three battles and three defeats. The morale of the army is turbulent. It is not suitable to fight again. We have lost a city before. Now we are retreating to Taiheng Mountain City. They dare not attack for a while. Come on, after all, the terrain is steep, but I'm afraid it won't last for three months!"

The local captain stepped forward and reported back.

Long Jiangtian gritted his teeth. He still doesn't understand the situation, and he can't say anything immediately. After all, what he said now is likely to be accompanied by tens of thousands of lives.

"Let's stop here for today, take me to inspect the barracks and parade!"

Long Jiangtian said in a cool voice, and then retreated to the guest room. Long Jiangtian called Skinny Bone to discuss the matter.

"Skinny, it's a mess here, what do you think? Where do we start?"

Long Jiangtian already had some preliminary plans in mind, but he also wanted to listen to Skinny's opinion to see what he, a military genius, thought.

"A hollow tree, no matter how powerful it is, is only on the outside. As long as the wind blows, it will fall down. Now our barracks is like a hollow tree. On the surface, it looks like there are more than 9 troops in the army, and there are still conscription outside, but this is just On the surface, the military spirit is different, like a plate of loose sand, the wind blows and it disperses. No matter how much sand there is, without water solidification, it will not be able to unite at all. Therefore, in my opinion, we must first rectify the internal affairs, establish the army's prestige, and then manufacture weapons. Then boost morale, and then fight again, as long as the first battle is won, the morale of the army will be settled, and the next thing, let’s talk about it after it’s done.”

Long Jiangtian smiled.

"Okay, just do as you say."

Long Jiangtian nodded, he also thought so in his heart, but the skinny bone obviously planned it out more systematically.

In the afternoon, Long Jiangtian went to the military parade.

I don't know who it is, but some stories of Long Jiangtian's deeds have been spread in the army. One person is very looking forward to Long Jiangtian, and at the same time, he feels like watching a star.

After reviewing the soldiers, Long Jiangtian found that these soldiers had good personal physiques, but they were not strong enough in team battles. This was obviously the reason for the lack of usual training. In a mess, several people gathered around and stabbed a strong person to death.

But now it's too late to train again, so I hugged Buddha's feet temporarily, and turned over as soon as I hugged.

"It seems that this is not a soldier's problem, but a general's problem!"

Long Jiangtian already knew it in his mind, so he immediately called all the instructors over, and also called the local Taiwei generals over.

These people, except for those soldiers, few of these generals are willing to obey the dragon, one is because he is too young, and the other is that he just used his lips to bring the Nak Empire back, and it is not With real swords and guns, when it comes to actual combat, they don't think Long Jiangtian is as strong as them.

So Long Jiangtian wanted to give pointers to their army here, so naturally he was extremely dissatisfied.

"You gather all the soldiers from Longqi City here, and I will train them myself."

They didn't expect that Long Jiangtian would say this. Longqi City was the city that was captured ahead, and those soldiers were the most indignant soldiers, and Long Jiangtian was going to start from them.

Soon those soldiers gathered together, a total of 5000 people.

Long Jiangtian ignored these generals at this moment. He walked up to the high platform and looked at the uniform soldiers standing in the field.

"I believe everyone already knows who I am, but I still want to introduce. I am the coach who leads Xijiang this time, and I will also be your new coach. I will train you personally. I don't care about your previous coaches. How did you train you, to make you look like a pile of shit, so vulnerable, but after you follow me, each of you will rise up like a man, a warrior, avenge your hometown and relatives, erase Shame on failure and grief!"

The soldiers below were in grief and indignation. Their relatives were still in Longqi City, being tortured by the enemy. When they heard Long Jiangtian's words, they naturally wanted to take revenge immediately.

But those generals who were scolded by Long Jiangtian were naturally upset.

So someone stood up.

"Commander, the enemy army is extremely fierce. Even if the commander personally leads the troops, he may not be able to defeat him."

"Really? Are you dissatisfied? Do you dare to say that the soldier you brought out is not a piece of shit?" Long Jiangtian looked at the general coldly.

"Hehe, commander, you have not been on the battlefield, anyone can talk empty words, it's not that I and others are rude, it's just that the commander's words are too much!"

Several of their generals stood up, clasped their fists and said, but their faces were full of dissatisfaction.
