The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 678
"These people have some skills!"

Zhou Lixing couldn't help but admire the cavalrymen who kept attacking the zombies in the distance.

Since returning to the palace, adopting the method of the palace to train troops, and after several months of actual combat to eliminate zombies, Zhou Lixing is very confident in the strength of his subordinates.

So at this moment, he is condescending to evaluate the imperial army.

I only heard Zhou Lixing continue to say: "Even so, compared to us... it's still worse!"

Qianhu on the side couldn't help but said: "My lord... I'm a cavalry soldier, it's hard to compare!"

Zhou Lixing glanced back, and the latter knew that he had said something wrong, so he quickly laughed and said, "My lord, you are talking nonsense with a humble job!"

Zhou Lixing wouldn't take this kind of trivial matter to heart, and immediately asked, "In your opinion... how many of them are there?"

"This... 2000 to [-] people!"

This range is very large, and the truth is that it has little reference value, but it is not the case in Zhou Lixing's ears.

"That is to say... you also think that there are no more than 2000 people!"

Qianhu nodded, and then asked, "What does your lord mean?"

Zhou Lixing said in a deep voice: "There are 2000 of them, and we have 5000. If you do the math mentally or carelessly... maybe you can eat them!"

Chito was no doubt stunned by the bold idea.

Qianhu cautiously reminded: "My lord... you must be cautious about this matter. According to the arrangement of the palace, we should wait for the people from the eighth guard to come over before we can move forward!"

Zhou Lixing sneered and said, "Don't I know?"

After expressing his attitude, Zhou Lixing calmly analyzed: "Although the palace has a plan, the plan is to eliminate monsters. What we are encountering now is the imperial army!"

"The war opportunity is fleeting, don't stick to the plan, do you understand?"

"This... I don't understand the humble job!"

After thinking about it for a while, Qianhu still gave such an answer. He still felt that it was not good to go beyond the plan.

"I don't understand, shit doesn't understand, after winning the battle... don't you understand everything?"

"Our five thousand elite soldiers came here quietly tonight, how difficult is it to surround and kill them?"

Zhou Lixing's words had already persuaded the Qianhu to be a little shaken, but he didn't say anything after all.

"You guys continue to investigate the situation and monitor their movements!"

After giving orders to the scouts, Zhou Lixing left with his subordinate Qianhu, and he wanted to go back and summon his subordinates to discuss together.

Going beyond the plan is strictly speaking out of order.

But as Zhou Lixing said, the battle situation is ever-changing, and a general should seize the opportunity to strike at the right time. From this perspective, it is not out of the ordinary.

Therefore, he decided to take the initiative to attack, and he also believed that Zhao Yanxun would not blame him.

Zhou Lixing only took half an hour for the twenty-mile journey, which shows how eager he is.

Returning to Zhuangzi, Zhou Lixing immediately ordered to gather the five thousand households.

At the same time, he also sent someone to send the situation of encountering the imperial army and his thoughts on the matter to the Chinese army.

In the room, all the five thousand households under his command were present, Zhou Lixing cut to the chase and said, "Everyone, the scouts have discovered the court cavalry, which is twenty miles away from us, and there are no more than two troops at most!"

"I mean, let's touch them in the dark and eat them in one bite!"

After saying this, Zhou Lixing raised his head and asked, "What do you think?"

The four thousand households who had just heard the news all showed surprise at the moment.

Then Qianhu said: "My lord... But the palace has a plan, we should stay here now, and wait for the people from the eighth guard to come over!"

Hearing this, Zhou Lixing said angrily: "The plan is to wipe out monsters, but what we are meeting now is the imperial army, and they are people who can use their brains!"

Seeing that everyone didn't answer, Zhou Lixing continued: "Don't you have been fighting monsters for a long time, you have forgotten the art of war, and how to fight a battle!"

Fighting zombies and fighting the army are two completely different things.

"But...if the prince blames me!"

"My lord will blame me!" Zhou Lixing said very bluntly, and then he said: "If we win the battle, will my lord still blame me?"

As long as you win, everything is easy to say, and everyone agrees with this.

Zhou Lixing went on to say: "Our five thousand elite soldiers sneaked over in the dark, it shouldn't be difficult to win this battle, right?"

In fact, only the top and bottom of the Yong army would take the night attack as normal.

Without strict military discipline and strong strength, in the current situation surrounded by zombies, sending troops at night is tantamount to courting death.

But at this moment, everyone remained silent, which made Zhou Li not to fight.

I am used to doing things according to instructions. Now it is really not easy for thousands of households to exert their subjective initiative.

"Stop pretending to be dumb, tell me something!" Zhou Lixing scolded.

After a few breaths, Qianhu, who followed Zhou Lixing to explore the way, said, "I listen to you, sir!"

With him taking the lead, another Qianhu said: "I also listen to the adults..."

But when we got here, the room became quiet again.

Zhou Lixing turned to one of them and asked, "Huang Qianhu, do you have anything to say?"

Without rushing to answer, Huang Tianyan thought carefully and said, "My lord, you are right. Suppressing monsters and fighting bandits are completely different things!"

Although he is only a member of a thousand households, compared to other people, Huang Tianyan is regarded as a direct descendant of the royal family, so his words carry a lot of weight.

Zhou Lixing breathed a sigh of relief when he said this, and only listened to Huang Tianyan continue.

"But to attack the thief army, we have to win to be considered a good thing. The key is to win!"

"Although we have [-] elite soldiers, they are all infantry after all, and it is impossible to be safe against cavalry attacks!"

After training in the martial arts hall, the former bandit leader has become eloquent in his speech.

But these words were all nonsense to Zhou Lixing's ears, so he asked directly: "So what do you mean?"

Huang Tianyan replied: "I feel that I can ask the nearest tenth guard to support, and send a message to the fourth guard to help cover!"

"Good guy, there are five guards in the North Route Army. If we are going to fight 2000 people, we will use three guards. You are so brave!" Zhou Lixing couldn't help complaining.

Only then did he realize that Huang Tianyan's ideas were crazier than his, and this was really a sledgehammer.

"Yes... I can invite them to come, but if they don't want to come, then I can't help it!"

The guards do not belong to each other, so naturally Zhou Lixing couldn't order others.

Huang Tianyan said with a smile: "My lord, I think they are willing to come, after all, this is a first effort!"

"Otherwise, why would my lord be willing to take on the responsibility and insist on fighting this battle!"

Not to mention, Huang Tianyan's analysis is very good.

Zhou Lixing scrambled to develop it in order to grab this first achievement.

The victory of the Eastern Expedition and Zhao Yanxun's ascension to the throne are common knowledge among the Yong army.

In other words, they will all become heroes of the "opening of the dynasty".

If you have merit, you will be rewarded. If you want to get more rewards, you have to accumulate more credit.

The credit for this first victory in the battle will be recorded in the annals of history, so Zhou Lixing is very hot.

"Okay, just do as you want!"

After saying this, Zhou Lixing glanced at the remaining two thousand households, and asked, "You two... what do you say!"

Huang Tianyan expressed his opinion, and the two thousand households were straightforward, and immediately agreed to Zhou Lixing's plan.

Ever since, the soldiers of the No.11 Guards began to prepare for the battle.

And all the scouts in the army were thrown out.

They had only one order, and that was to hunt down the scouts of the imperial court to prevent the whereabouts of No. 11 guards from leaking.
