Chapter 167: The Dragon Appears, the Saint Girl's 72 Transformations
After the battle, in addition to cleaning up the battlefield, rewards must be given according to merit.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, thousands of troops gathered on the shore of Lake Baikal.
The "Heroic Award" was given to Kilton's vanguard battalion, which killed the most enemies. Lu Yuan, Zhao Qiaoer and Li Qingluan were considered temporary personnel.
At the same time, they were also the unit that suffered the greatest casualties, with casualties reaching over 200 people, and the rest were all injured. It was so tragic.
"Promote the Vanguard Battalion to the Xuanwu Regiment, with a fixed strength of 1000 people. Appoint Kilton as the commander of the Xuanwu Regiment and give him the rank of lieutenant colonel. Luo Zichang is the deputy commander with the rank of major and concurrently serves as the commander of the artillery battalion."
"Whoosh!"
The surviving officers and soldiers of the Cossack Vanguard Battalion applauded and cheered, with joy on their faces.
Kilton was in pain and happy at the same time. His head and body were covered with wounds. With the help of the guards, he sat up from the stretcher and saluted Lu Yuan together with Luo Zichang.
"I thank General Lu Yuan for his reward! All the soldiers of the Xuanwu Regiment will always be loyal to you!"
Lu Yuan pushed him back onto the stretcher and said with a smile, "Lieutenant Colonel Kilton, rest assured and recover. Report the names of meritorious soldiers and reward them according to the law! Double the pension will be given to every warrior who sacrificed his life!"
Kilton made the sign of the cross on his chest, tears welling up in his eyes with excitement: "May my Lord protect the general from illness and disaster, and may he win every battle!"
The soldiers of the Xuanwu Regiment all echoed: "Long live the general! May you always be victorious!"
Lu Yuan turned to the second troop, the Bu tribe's plucking team.
The number of prisoners they brought back and the number of Bu soldiers they persuaded to surrender were nearly a thousand, which was unmatched in the history of the country.
At the beginning, Yalibu and Zhang Yuting formulated a psychological warfare strategy of "persuasion to surrender as the main approach and attack as the auxiliary approach", which was a great success.
In addition, another key role is Ivanovich.
Lu Yuan's original intention of sending him back to Angara City was to serve as an "insider", mainly to gather military intelligence.
Unexpectedly, Unov made him the captain of the recruits.
By some strange coincidence, he was able to lead 500 new recruits and complete their uprising and surrender on the battlefield.
Zhang Yuting led the enemy troops in circles, and waited until Yalib and Ivan put an end to the uprising. Then the three parties joined forces to surround 300 Bu recruits at a designated location.
Afterwards, they fought hard against the Cossack Cavalry Battalion in a blocking battle, effectively ensuring the smooth conclusion of the main battlefield.
According to the Yanxiang Society's prisoner policy, those who surrendered would be free and given travel expenses.
Therefore, only a few Russian officers and forty or fifty Bu people recruits who were unwilling to serve in the army chose to hand in their weapons and leave.
The plucking team single-handedly reduced the enemy forces by 30% without suffering much loss themselves. Yalibu, Zhang Yuting and Ivan can be regarded as the three wisest generals.
Lu Yuan shook hands cordially with the three people and announced the commendation order in public.
"Promote the Plucking Squad to the Suzaku Regiment, with a staff of 1000 people. Appoint Yalib as Lieutenant Colonel Regiment Commander, Zhang Yuting as Major Deputy Regiment Commander, and Ivanovich as Major Cavalry Battalion Commander."
Yalib had half of his ear missing and it was wrapped in gauze, but he didn't mind and fell to his knees.
"Slave, Yalib wishes the master a long life and invincibility!"
Zhang Yuting and Ivan stood at attention and gave a standard military salute.
All the soldiers of the plucking team and the surrendered Bu tribe recruits saw the generous rewards from the Yanxiang Society army, and felt honored. They cheered in unison and sang and danced.
The third place was the special forces team led by Kim Mi-jeong and Lee Ha-mi. Half of their men were killed, but they showed no sadness or joy and looked solemn.
"The special operations team is promoted to the Dragon Group, with Jin Meijing as lieutenant colonel and Li Hemei as major deputy captain, with a fixed number of 108 people."
Jin Meijing and Li Hemei raised their hands and saluted: "Thank you, Master Lu, for promoting me! Use me in the first battle. The Dragon Team is loyal!"
The fourth one is Gao Mingna’s Shenwei Light Cavalry. However, the opponent belongs to the Liaodong Border Army and is not in the combat sequence of Yanxiang Society.
"The allied forces of Shenwei have given us great support, and we have made great achievements. To express our gratitude, we will split the spoils of war 30% to 70%, and the compensation for losses will be calculated separately."
Gao Mingna smiled and said, "No problem! I'll do as Master Lu says, but can you lend me the Maxim?"
"Ha ha!"
This girl never forgot this.
"Okay! That Maxim is yours!"
Now, Gao Mingna was all smiles, and happily accepted the spoils with her subordinates.
Finally, Lu Yuan looked at the little Bu herdsman and waved to Borjigin: "Come!"
The little fellow came to Lu Yuan with a wooden fork in his hand and said, "Master! I'm here!"
"Everyone! Heroes have always emerged from youth. Today, a little hero has emerged among us!"
"Borjigin was only 13 years old, but he killed the enemy leader Unov with just a wooden fork, and won the first individual merit of 'killing the general and seizing the flag'!"
Lu Yuan looked around at everyone and said loudly: "So, I want to give him a special reward! Grant Borjigin the title of 'Tiger Warrior'! The whole family will be freed immediately, and they will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver and 10,000 acres of pasture!"
Wow!
This kid is so lucky!
All the Bu people were stunned.
This is a huge fortune that many people dream of but cannot get. The master is really generous!
Lu Yuan smiled slightly. It was just "a thousand gold coins for horse bones". What was the big deal?
But Borjigin was unhappy and opened his mouth to speak but stopped.
Lu Yuan had sharp eyes. He immediately leaned forward and asked, "What's wrong? Are you not satisfied? What else do you want... Tell me!"
Borjigin immediately raised his head and asked loudly: "Master, do you want me no longer? I want a reward and I want to work for you for the rest of my life..."
Lu Yuan touched his little head, laughed and left.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, leaving Borjigin confused and at a loss.
Yalibu kicked him lightly and cursed: "You idiot! You are so stupid. The master is honoring you..."
"I don't want this kind of flattery!"
Hey!
You want to rebel?!
Yalibu twisted the man's ear and said angrily, "Oh! You are so stupid! Hurry up and take the reward and go home! Otherwise, I am afraid I will kick you to death!"
The young herdsman argued: "The master said he wants to fight Angara again..."
Yalibu taunted, "Hey, what's up? You snatched the 'merit of beheading a general' from the master and now you want to pick up another 'first to ascend the mountain'? Only the master is kind enough not to bother with you... Damn it, the more you talk, the angrier I'll get. If you don't roll over and beat me to death!"
"Hahaha! This little brat got a great bargain..."
Amid the laughter of the crowd, there was a strong sense of envy and encouragement.
This time I will "climb first" even if it means death, to earn a small piece of pasture for my family. It's worth it even if I die!
Watching the long line of Suzaku Regiment marching forward, Borjigin's eyes suddenly brightened, and then became extremely determined.
Follow Master Lu Yuan, you will get money and eat meat!
This kind of life is so good!
The Xuanwu Regiment and the Suzaku Regiment marched side by side, one on the left and one on the right. When night fell, they lit torches and marched towards Angara City overnight.
According to Lu Yuan's plan, they would march to surround Angara tonight and then calmly enter the city early tomorrow morning.
There will be no surprises in the battle to capture the city.
The main force of the Cossack advance regiment was annihilated, and the old, weak and disabled soldiers in the city were unable to stop the two meritorious troops that were in their prime.
After washing and bathing, Borjigin came.
His parents brought all the sheep in their home, saying that they would present them to Master Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan was very happy: "The reward was earned by Borjigin with his life, no need to thank me."
But the two old herdsmen insisted on offering gifts, even kneeling for a long time.
"Okay! In that case, leave a whole roasted lamb. My 'Eagle Brother' has also done a great deed today!"
Borjigin was overjoyed and immediately jumped up and said, "Master, all right! I will pick the fattest one to roast!"
The fire was lit, sheep were slaughtered and roasted, and the aroma filled the air.
"Brother Eagle" smelled the aroma and came to the fire, staring at the delicious roasted lamb with his mouth watering.
Talulu offered the wine and food prepared for the host with both hands, and Lu Yuan was the first to take the privately brewed "Hongliangchun".
This is made from high-quality, premium sorghum and is carefully brewed using the fermentation technology from "The God of Cookery".
Under the light, the wine is clear, amber in color, with a lingering aroma that makes people's mouths water.
The most special thing is that no matter how much "Hongliangchun" you drink, you won't get drunk at all.
Borjigin sniffed it and praised sincerely, "Master's wine smells so good!"
Lu Yuan took a look at the "noodles with gravy", and the latter immediately understood. He poured a small bowl and handed it to the young herdsman who didn't know much about etiquette.
"Here! The master gives you this as a reward!" "Thank you, master, for the reward!"
After bowing, Borjigin picked up the small bowl and took a big sip.
"Ahem...Ha, suck!"
The first time the young herdsman drank strong liquor, his mouth and throat were filled with a spicy and irritating feeling, and he almost choked to tears.
"Ha ha!"
Lu Yuan laughed happily. He held the wine glass to his nose, sniffed it, took a sip, and savored it carefully.
Well, this wine is mellower than the "national wine" of my original world... Unfortunately, I can't go back.
Suddenly, a bell rang in his mind.
"Ding!……"
Alas... Lady Hongfen's "secret message over a thousand miles"? !
So, that Russian Saint really found the lair of the "Frost Dragon"?
Helping Lady Hongfen complete her true form is the current overwhelming political task!
"Snapped!"
Lu Yuan solemnly put down his wine glass and ordered: "Notify the three ladies immediately, and start the 'Dragon Slaying Plan'!"
In a few minutes, Li Qingluan, Gao Mingna and Zhao Qiaoer arrived.
Li Qingluan was the eldest sister and asked first: "Did the queen send a signal? Where is the location?"
Lu Yuan pointed to the southeast and whispered, "Aohong Island, across from Muhuo Bay, is more than a hundred miles away!"
Zhao Qiaoer immediately said, "Then we will each have three horses and hurry over to help the queen!"
Lu Yuan nodded and said, "That's right! Yanxiang will be deeply favored by the Queen, and must get the 'Dragon Eye'!"
Li Qingluan and Gao Mingna naturally had no problem, and the four of them immediately mounted the strongest war horses.
Before leaving, Borjigin said, "Master, I can ride a horse, please take me with you!"
Lu Yuan smiled and told the little herdsman: "It won't work this time. So, you take good care of Brother Eagle for me!"
On Aohong Island, there is a pool ten thousand feet deep, the water is freezing cold.
Zhendabova landed on the island accurately based on the old priest's memory.
She lurked in the pool of water until midnight, when she sensed the terrifying presence of the returning frost dragon.
In order to avoid being noticed by the Saint, Lady Hongfen hid on the top of the mountain in Muho Bay, constantly monitoring the changes on Aohong Island.
However, she was very confused. Although it was three or four miles away from Aohong Island, the dragon's aura was still very powerful.
The dragon is too strong...even if three of us were put together, we might not be able to defeat it.
It was not until this moment that Lady Hongfen realized that, in comparison, she was just a yellow-haired girl.
Another doubt is that although Zhendabova is stronger than himself, there is no way she can suppress the dragon.
Why should she slay the dragon alone?
In fact, in the lair of the Frost Dragon, Zhendabova, who was a hundred meters underwater, was also holding her breath and observing carefully.
The body length is at least 10 meters, this guy is really big!
The dragon's back is covered with rows of sharp horns, and the scales on its back are covered with a light blue halo, and under the halo are thick silver-white scales.
Its belly is round and covered with soft light yellow skin, and its limbs end with five sharp claws.
That’s right, all the characteristics are consistent with the description in the “Record of Mythical Creatures”, and it is indeed a remnant of the true dragon clan from ancient times.
A true dragon is a treasure of nature from beginning to end, and is definitely a walking super treasure.
The giant frost dragon swam around and then went into a wide crystal dome, lying on the familiar soft jade platform. Its breathing gradually became calmer and the look in its eyes gradually became blurred.
woohoo hoo...
Like all creatures in the world, Frost Dragons also follow the law of "work at sunrise and rest at sunset".
Zhendabova held on patiently and waited for more than half an hour.
Listening to the harmonious breathing and heartbeat of the dragon, and guessing that the dragon was really asleep, he quietly slipped out from the algae in the corner.
That’s right, it just “slides” out.
Because she had smeared a thick layer of mermaid oil all over her body, making her look as slippery as a large loach.
Even though the saint was very careful and even though she was blessed by angels, she did not dare to be careless when facing the most ferocious dragon in prehistoric times.
100 meters, 90 meters, 80 meters...
As the dragon got closer, Zhendabova's muscles became tenser, as if she encountered invisible resistance, or as if she fell into an increasingly sticky quagmire.
This was not Zhendabova's illusion, but the innate attribute of the true dragon clan: dragon power.
"Huff~~Inhale~~"
The dragon's breath produced ripples of spiritual energy that spread out layer by layer.
Two long dragon whiskers swayed in the waves like kelp.
As if swimming upstream, Zhendabova tried her best to maintain a steady speed.
As a saint who appears once every thousand years, she is an expert in the use of spiritual power.
Whether it is breathing, heartbeat, movements or consciousness, everything is controlled just right.
After a long hour, we finally reached the 30-meter line.
She stopped moving and slowly raised her hand. On her fingertips was a "storage ring" engraved with ancient cloud and thunder patterns.
Silently chant the spell: "Magical spirit of Mount Olympus, come out!"
The cloud-thunder pattern on the storage ring quietly sank, and strands of transparent lines extended out silently.
More and more transparent threads appeared, growing quietly and madly, and all of them floated towards the Frost Dragon.
Soon, the entire dragon was wrapped in silk thread, like a super large cocoon.
As long as the lake is completely isolated from the water, the Frost Dragon will be forever trapped in the "illusion in the cocoon" and at the mercy of Zhendabova.
But just when the progress bar reached 99.7%, a subtle undercurrent swept across Zhendabova's forehead.
I don’t know if it was just a coincidence that the undercurrent blew away a bit of mermaid fat.
Suddenly, the two dragon whiskers half locked onto the saint's position like a radar.
Immediately, the ripples of the dragon's breath gathered together, and in an instant, a human-shaped echo emerged outside Zhendabova's body.
In one thousandth of a second, a dragon roared, "Ang!", deafeningly.
The Frost Dragon's reaction was incredibly fast. It opened its eyes and discovered the "cocoon" of spiritual power threads.
"Arctic Storm!"
Wow!
A violent spiritual power, carrying an extremely low temperature of minus 30 degrees Celsius, spread in all directions like lightning.
Zhendabova was so angry that she cursed: "Damn it! What bad luck!"
But before this thought came to her mind, she already knew that the original plan had failed.
He immediately broke the "Black Widow" thread and kept changing the shape of his body while fleeing at high speed.
Sometimes it looked like a fish, sometimes like a shell, and sometimes like a giant squid (rumor: within five or six seconds, the saint changed into a total of 72 different forms).
In short, Zhendabova had only one thing to do: she must not be locked by the "Dragon Beard Cannon Aiming Radar", otherwise she would be dead.
However, the Frost Dragon was even more powerful. Its own Dragon Palace was invaded by humans and it almost got caught. This was a huge humiliation!
"Boom boom boom!"
While chasing the saint, it released a huge "sonic bomb".
According to the principles of physics, water is incompressible.
Therefore, the sonic bomb is like a "depth charge" in anti-submarine warfare. Every explosion causes certain damage to Zhendabova.
When she escaped from the "Dragon Palace", she began to float up with all her strength, 90 meters, 80 meters, 70 meters...
As a practitioner, you do not need to consider the difference in air pressure.
Just as Zhendabova was about to jump out of the water, a huge dragon claw grabbed her from the side at lightning speed. (End of this chapter)
