As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 719 Western Battlefield (1)

However, Suling was facing a crisis, and the people of Suling County were united as never before.

Scholars have a good sense of the overall situation, remain calm in times of crisis, comfort the panicked and worried people, and restore their confidence.

The young and middle-aged men knew that every citizen had the responsibility for the rise and fall of their country, so they took the initiative to go to the battlefield and serve as logistics personnel in transporting food and carrying the wounded.

The wealthy businessman had a strong sense of home and city, so he spent a fortune to buy a large amount of Thousand Machine Grass to make medicine and send it to the front line.

The farmers are the cutest. The village spontaneously built a monument to their credit. Even though they live in poverty, they still save part of their food rations and donate them to the front line.

As a small individual, everyone plays his or her own role.

The unity within Suling is unimaginable in other territories. Most people hate war, but many people in Suling County are willing to sacrifice their lives for the territory.

When two armies face off, it's not only a competition of the generals' abilities, but also of the army's logistics and the morale of the soldiers. Before the armies officially fight, the balance of victory is already tilting towards them.

……

Western battlefield.

The air was filled with smoke, the sun was obscured by dark clouds, and the weather was freezing cold, like a knife stabbing the skin. The white cold air exhaled from the soldiers' mouths seemed to spread a bloody smell.

For the Zeyan coalition forces, the longer they stayed stationed, the greater the pressure on military food. The cold weather killed some soldiers before the battle even started. Therefore, they could not wait long. As dusk approached, Wen Yunsheng could not wait to organize his troops to launch the first attack.

"Shoot!!!" The war drums roared, He Zi looked heroic, and at the order, the archers of Su army were the first to take their positions. Only bursts of whistling sounds could be heard in the air, and arrows fell like rain, shot down from the high city walls.

The soldiers of Ze Yanyan's army who were charging at the front held up shields, and the shields formed a large area of ​​faint white light shield, which tightly protected the soldiers behind them. Thousands of arrows hit the light shield before it was barely broken.

This first round of arrow rain did not cause much damage to the enemy.

"It's Zeyan's Golden Beacon Shield warrior." Zhou Bao said in a deep voice at the general command platform.

Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle. The most famous army in Zeyan County is the Five Hundred Golden Shield Army. The shields equipped by the shield warriors are golden shields, which are not afraid of fire, so the fire talismans cannot play a big role.

Moreover, this shield is extremely hard. When multiple shields are placed close to each other, a chemical reaction will occur, spontaneously forming a smooth light shield. Ordinary rain arrows cannot even break the defense of the light shield.

Of course, Zeyan has such a powerful army, and it is now a county-level territory. It was attacked by Qingsong County before. This army naturally has its flaws.

That is because the Golden Beacon Shield is too heavy, and the shield holder has difficulty walking, so the attack speed of the entire army is also extremely slow.

Even if the shield warrior leads the rear army to successfully reach the city wall, if the wall is built too high, the shield warrior holding the shield will be almost unable to climb up the wall with the ladder, and the soldiers in the rear will be exposed to danger again, which is a huge flaw in the siege process.

However, if the Zeyan Army led the army to the city gate with almost no injuries, the siege operation could be said to be half successful, so the Su Army's heart tightened slightly. Wen Yunsheng saw the situation in front of him and laughed proudly, "My Jinfeng Army is as solid as a rock and is the best shield warrior. The small Suling County is vulnerable."

The officers beside Wen Yunsheng nodded and bowed in agreement, "The county king is right. In Suling County, only their lord is a little bit powerful. The others are just a bunch of rabble. Now that Jiang Nu has been defeated by Zhuo Li and the Lord of Qingsong County, Suling County will be ours sooner or later."

Wen Yunsheng was very happy to be complimented. Thinking of the face he had seen for many years, he was moved, "I hope Yu Wei doesn't kill Jiang Nv. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a pity?"

"..."

……

"Coach Zhang, are you confident that you can kill Wen Yunsheng with one arrow?" The enemy moved slowly, so Zhou Bao had enough time to think of a countermeasure.

Zhou Bao, who was as wild and arrogant as a leopard, showed great respect for "Coach Zhang".

To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. As long as the Lady of Zeyan County dies, there will be no one to support the overall situation, and this temporary coalition will instantly turn into a pile of loose sand. This is the way to resolve the war with the least casualties and the fastest speed.

"But you're just a cultivator in the Xuan Bone Realm, why waste your energy? Let me go and shoot an arrow through his chest." Coach Zhang, also known as Zhang Wenfeng, said disdainfully, not taking Wen Yunsheng seriously at all.

After the arrogant Zhang Wenfeng brought her son Weng Qing to Suling County, Weng Qing refused to go to Mingxiao College, but instead went to Suling College as a student.

She herself was arranged by Jiang Ran to be a coach in the army, responsible for teaching the soldiers archery.

Ever since being defeated by Jiang Ran, Zhang Wenfeng still had the arrogance, but he was less conceited.

However, she still felt quite resentful about being "imprisoned" in a small county-level territory. She originally wanted to just muddle through her days, but seeing the silly looks and extremely poor archery skills of the Suling soldiers, the veins on Zhang Wenfeng's forehead jumped, and she felt that it was an insult to her eyes. One day, she couldn't stand it anymore and mocked the soldiers' basic skills. Later, somehow, she was lifted up by the Suling soldiers' admiring eyes and praise. By the time she reacted, she was already standing in the center of the training ground, and the Suling soldiers began to readjust their archery postures and learn new archery skills...

Thinking of this, Zhang Wenfeng looked a little dazed.

"No." Zhou Bao dissuaded, "The county lord specifically told us that you are a big name in Suling County. Although we are now fighting with county-level and town-level territories such as Zhuoli and Zeyan, many county-level forces and even metropolitan-level forces above the county level may also be paying attention to the changes here. Therefore, we cannot put all our combat power on the table. You are a strong man in the Sea of ​​Consciousness Realm. The county lord said that you are the secret weapon of my Suling County."

Not only Zhang Wenfeng, but also Fang Qiaosheng, Gong Rong, Pang Zhou and other geniuses who appeared in the power competition did not appear on this battlefield.

Jiang Ran knew that the opponents he would face in the future would be even stronger, and the Su army could not always rely on these high-end combat forces. Moreover, the contract with Fang Qiaosheng and others would expire one day. Although the battlefield was cruel and there would be death, it was also a training for the middle and low-level non-commissioned officers.

An invincible army must go through countless battles before it can mature.

Although the process will be very cruel to some people, as a lord, you must abandon mercy, give up the trivial and take the important into consideration, and take the overall situation into consideration.
