Chapter 304 Yang Luo's Visit
The process of splitting up the squad was also very simple. Most of the time, the good sergeants would form a team by themselves, and then report and register with the two battalion officers Zuo and Yang. If there were not enough to form a squad, Zuo and Yang would allocate them.
When it was Chu Xiaomu's turn, they were naturally grouped with the original nine people, and Chu Xiaomu was still the team leader. The other soldiers saw how skinny they were, and were afraid that the battalion officer would force them to join his team, so they all stayed away from them.
Zhou Weide secretly spat on the ground and said angrily: "Why are you so proud? Don't you see who caught Li Ji?" He deliberately shook out the big and thick green cloak that Zhou Bo had awarded him and put it on, walking around among the soldiers. This green cloak is soft and tough, with excellent texture. It can not only protect against wind and rain, but also keep warm. It is considered a very precious item in Bicheng. Ordinary soldiers may not be able to afford one even with a year's salary. Zhou Bo awarded one to each of the nine members of the herding team, which was a high-level reward and quite pleasing to everyone.
Lin Zhen said with a smile: "Brother De'er, when you put on this cloak, you look like a vivid general, more majestic and impressive than the two generals from Zuoying and Yangying."
Zhou Weide said, "Xiao Zhen, you put on your cloak too." He turned around and said to Chu Xiaomu and the others, "Everyone put on your cloaks! Let's show them who is more capable, the Nan Dui Camp or our Herdsmen! Who was rewarded with such a good cloak!"
Everyone laughed and tried to refuse. Chu Xiaomu smiled and said, "Since they are generals, one of them is enough. If all ten of them are generals, what will it be like?" He suddenly remembered that Yingdan had disappeared, and there were only nine people left in his team of ten. He couldn't help feeling sad.
Zhou Wei De walked in the crowd for a while wearing a green cloak and found that other people looked at him strangely. No one was envious or surprised. He felt it was very boring and took off the cloak in dismay and put it away.
Chu Xiaomu and his friends found it funny when they saw it.
A day later, Yang Luo brought several guards from Humu Pass to the Nandu Camp.
The soldiers were in awe when they saw the Beicheng Army's mid-level general who came and went like the wind. They wondered how he could be second only to the general in the Force Martial Arts in Bicheng at only thirty years old? Moreover, he had a "heavenly view" since the first day of opening the Force. Given time, he would undoubtedly surpass the general, not to mention the golden sword and black sword in Jinyang City. Moreover, he was the younger brother of the small battalion officer of the Nandu Camp, so they felt very close to him. When they saw him walking towards them with big strides, the camp was filled with cheers.
Yang Luo exchanged pleasantries with Zuo Heng and Yang Sui, then looked through the list of the sentry squads that were split off from the Nan Dui Camp. He said, "Each of our camps already has a sentry squad, which is enough for gathering military intelligence. However, the general sent me a message via eagle, ordering me to convert an entire battalion of soldiers into a sentry squad, set up strongholds along the foot of the Beast Mountain, and keep an eye on every move in the Beast Mountain, but he did not explain the reason. I don't know what his intention is."
Zuo Heng said, "I heard that a few days ago, some beast spirits injured our soldiers on Chui Ke Road. The general probably expected that these beast spirits would be detrimental to our Bicheng, so he asked us to keep a close eye on them to prevent them from attacking in large numbers."
Yang Luo shook his head and said, "Later, I carefully asked our battalion officer Wen Gang. From his conversation with the red-haired ape, it seems that the beast spirit is not going to embarrass us in Bicheng. It seems that something happened in their beast mountain."
Yang Sui said: "No matter what happens to them, they can't hurt the soldiers of Bicheng. We all belong to the Cangmu Kingdom. It's fine if they don't help, but they hurt people instead. How can this be justified?!"
Yang Luo sighed and said, "I think we were at fault for fighting with our soldiers, so we can't blame them entirely."
Yang Sui said, "Third brother, you said something happened in Beast Mountain, what is that?"
Yang Luo said, "I'm just guessing about this..." He turned to the end of the list and suddenly saw Chu Xiaomu's name. He said happily, "Brother Chu is here too?" Without waiting for Zuo Heng and Yang Sui to answer, he stood up and shouted, "Brother Chu Xiaomu, Brother Chu Xiaomu..."
When Chu Xiaomu heard Yang Luo calling his name, he hurried over and saluted, "Chu Xiaomu from Nan Dui Camp, meeting General Yang."
Yang Luo looked Chu Xiaomu up and down and said with a smile, "You seem to have grown taller. Brother Chu, you look very handsome in this set of Bicheng Silver Armor."
Chu Xiaomu blushed and hesitantly didn't know how to answer.
Yang Luo continued, "Thanks to you for finding out the Claw Tribe's camp and coming up with the ingenious plan of using fire attack, we were able to easily defeat them and drive them out of Biyuan and out of our Humu Pass!"
Chu Xiaomu didn't know what polite words to say and felt extremely embarrassed for a moment.
Yang Luo continued, "We found several corpses of bird-rider scouts not far to the south of Lange Mountain. One of them was killed by the Dragon Spine Sword Style, but it didn't look like it... It must be the 'Dragon Spine Sword Style' you taught yourself!" He was able to infer what moves the person who killed the bird-rider spy used and how sophisticated the moves were based on the death of the bird-rider spy. It was really surprising that he was so skilled in martial arts.
Chu Xiaomu stammered, "Luckily... Fortunately, Qisheng helped me, otherwise... otherwise I wouldn't be able to defeat that bird-riding spy."
Yang Luo laughed and said, "If 'Kai Long Ji' still can't deal with a Claw Clan assassin, I'm afraid the general's nose will be crooked because of you."
He didn't care whether Chu Xiaomu answered or not, and continued: "You are so young, but you only used a long sword to kill an assassin who trained his hands into claws. Your martial arts talent is really high. You are worthy of being the descendant of Chu Xiong, the general's good brother..."
Chu Xiaomu's ears felt hot after hearing this. He thought, when it comes to martial arts talent, who can compare to you, a general in the Northern Army of Bicheng who has passed the fifth level of the Force at the age of 27 or 28 and has a "heavenly view"? You are not praising me, but making fun of me in front of everyone.
However, Yang Luo became more and more excited as he spoke: "We found six or seven more corpses of assassins with broken bones not far from the corpse of the assassin you killed. They looked like they were trampled to death by horses. How did you do it?" Zuo Heng, Yang Sui and others found it incredible and looked at Chu Xiaomu.
Chu Xiaomu said: "Yang Zhongjun's guess was correct. Those people were trampled to death by our horses."
Everyone looked at each other in shock, thinking that there were people who were trampled to death by horses in battle, but most of them were accidental misfortunes. This was the first time they heard of an enemy being killed by horse hooves.
