"Lin Changkong, pass on the order for the entire army to form up in ranks." Xu Haifeng shouted loudly inside his tent.

  "Yes, General."

  The sound was not comparable to a childs whisper, but he immediately heard the faint rustling of clothes and footsteps coming from outside the camp. These sounds were extremely light, and if not for his high level of martial arts skills and sharp senses, it would have been impossible to capture them. His face changed slightly as he thought back to the order given by Xu Haifeng earlier, and it wasnt hard to guess that these sounds were made by the soldiers when they formed up in ranks. However, if three thousand people acted simultaneously and only produced such faint sounds, what was even more remarkable was that throughout the entire process, not a single person spoke loudly or even whispered softly.

  This is clearly an elite unit that has been trained to perfection, and even in the Red Ocean Army Corps, its unlikely to see such a well-trained army. If these people were slaves three months ago, then Xu Haifengs military strategy is also quite terrifying.

  He forced himself to remain calm and composed, following Xu Haifeng out of the tent, but when he saw the neat rows of three thousand people in front of him, his expression finally changed.

  Tong Yifeng had been in the military for many years, but he had always served in the logistics department. He was skilled at dispatching and allocating supplies, but after all, he had never been on a battlefield and had not experienced the trials of life and death. Therefore, he could only tell whether an army was well-trained and well-equipped.

  The direction of the sound was completely different, he was much younger than Tong Yifeng, but he had been through a hundred battles and was always fighting on the front lines. At a glance, he saw the coldness and chill in these peoples eyes. This was not something that could be trained, only one kind of person would have such eyes, those who crawled out from piles of dead bodies. They would raise their butcher knives without hesitation to slaughter the weak and disabled, they would perfectly execute any order from their superiors, even if it meant certain death, they would never retreat because these people had seen through everything and no longer cherished anything in this world, including their own lives, they could no longer be called human, perhaps "killing machines" was the only suitable title for them.

  Every commander hopes that the soldiers under his command are such machines, but in fact, there are not many who can crawl out of a pile of dead people without going crazy and still be willing to continue being soldiers. No general has ever been able to find thousands of killing machines to form an army. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, there was once such an army, known as the "Dare-to-Die Corps", but the members of the Dare-to-Die Corps never exceeded one hundred people. It is said that this team was invincible in battle, and beheading generals and capturing flags were trivial matters.

  Since Taizu and Taizong pacified the world, this dare-to-die corps has dispersed without a trace. And since then, no general has ever been heard of successfully reorganizing the dare-to-die corps. But today, this legendary team is once again in front of us, and its an unprecedented three thousand people.

  The direction of the horns difficult twisting, sore neck, looked at the twenty elite cavalry brought by himself in the red ocean. They were all born and died with the direction of the horn for many years, old brothers who had experienced countless battles. But at this moment they were like facing a great enemy, holding the knife handle, their fingers white due to excessive force. They stared at the more than three thousand people with tense expressions, big drops of sweat dripping from their heads, and the murderous aura emanating from them without any concealment.

  However, the three thousand people opposite stood firm in military posture, from start to finish without even glancing at them. It was as if the king of beasts would not bother with the jumping and shouting of a clown, they simply did not put the twenty people in front of them in their eyes.

  Looking at the outstanding performance of his own team, the gap with the opponent is obvious. This is essentially two teams of different levels, how can they be compared together?

  He carefully sized up Xu Haifeng, as if he had just met this person, with a dangerous glint in his eyes, making Xu Haifengs scalp feel numb, and awkwardly asked: "Big brother? Whats wrong?"

  "These are the three thousand slave soldiers you trained?"

  "Yes, big brother, theyre doing alright." Xǔ Hǎi Fēngs expression was once again filled with pride. In fact, since he saw the killing intent in Gǔ Dào Jiǎos eyes, Xǔ Hǎi Fēng had increased the intensity of their training, and under the inhuman exercises, even the original 123 people had undergone tremendous changes. At this moment, they were finally able to bring out the true effect of the Blood Wine, reaching the peak state of a Blood Wine Warrior.

  "Little brother, I have an idea. If your troops are as good as the legendary daredevil squad, then lets take a risk and try to surpass them." Direction Ming said resolutely.

  "What adventure? And what is this daredevil stuff?"

  After Dai Fang explained the origin and achievements of the Dare-to-Die Corps, Xu Haifeng thought for a moment and found that they were indeed similar to his own Blood Wine Warriors.

  "Little brother, I plan to test our combined strength and see if we can take down Linan City."

  Fang Ming suddenly spoke up, and one sentence almost choked Xu Haifeng: "Big brother, are you mistaken? The emperors 200,000-strong army is powerless, but our two departments combined have less than 10,000 people. Were not even enough to fill the gap between their teeth."

  Although Fang Meng rose to the position of deputy commander of the Left Camp, he could command an army of 10,000 men, but he had not yet returned to the Northern Territory. At this moment, there were only three thousand cavalrymen under his command, so the two of them added up to less than 10,000 people.

  "If it were someone elses troops, it would be unimaginable, but your subordinates are the dare-to-die squad, with their combat power, I think there should be a 50% chance of creating a miracle." Fang Xuan said resolutely. He was originally a bold and adventurous person, and his nature liked to take risks. Otherwise, he wouldnt have ordered the use of 3,000 cavalry to charge at 30,000 soldiers in the battle outside the military camp. At this moment, the opportunity is right in front of him, and if successful, the results obtained will far exceed those of the battle at the military camp, and he cant help but be moved.

  After careful consideration of the Blood Wine Warriors combat capabilities, Xu Haifeng also agreed with Feng Mings words. Moreover, in Xu Haifengs hands, there was still a secret weapon that had not been used yet. As for the siege war, it would be even more reassuring to have an extra layer of grasp.

  Seeing Xu Haifeng hesitating, Fang Ming urged: "Brother, as the saying goes, wealth and honor are sought in danger. If you cant bear to sacrifice your children, you wont be able to trap wolves. Think about it, you were able to become a general by barely surviving nine deaths. This time is also an opportunity, why not take a chance and seize it, lest you regret it later."

  Xu Haifeng gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind: "Big brother is right, Ill do whatever big brother says."

  Dongfeng finally let out a sigh of relief. If Xu Haifeng hadnt nodded in agreement, this plan wouldnt have had any chance of success. The two men deliberated for a long time, as this was related to their future prospects and the lives of 6,000 people from both departments, so they didnt dare be careless.

  On the second day, under the command of Emperor Xian of Han, the Han army launched another fierce offensive, but the defenses of the Caesarians remained as strong as ever. The two armies clashed on the city walls, with massive stone blocks, arrows and scorching hot oil pouring down from above, causing heavy casualties to the Han army at every moment.

  On a high slope three miles east of Linan City, Emperor Han Xians face was now filled with dark and solemn shadows that sent shivers down ones spine.

  The Han army suffered heavy casualties and was unable to recover, so they had no choice but to retreat again. The Emperors face was even more overcast with dark clouds, and the civil and military officials around him did not dare to speak out, fearing that they would be burned by the fire.

  Report...

  "Speak." The duty warrior responded loudly.

  "Vice Commander Zhang of the Huanglong Army led by example, fought bravely and unfortunately was hit by a stray arrow, he has gloriously sacrificed himself for the country."

  "What?" Emperor Han Xian angrily stood up.

  The officials were even more discussing and speculating, no wonder the Han armys defeat was so sudden just now, it turned out that the commander-in-chief had died, which is not surprising.

  "Alas..." Emperor Han Xians angry wave of his sleeve, said: "Which of you officials will go and take this city for me?"

  Everyone looked at each other in dismay, they had all witnessed the battles of the past few days, who dared to boast and invite ridicule.

  "Two hundred and fifty thousand troops, two hundred and fifty thousand troops cant even take down a small Linan City, you...you are all good for nothing." Emperor Han Xian was furious and scolded: "Pass the order down, whoever captures this city will have all its sons and daughters, jade and silk as their own."

  "I humbly report to Your Majesty, I wish to go."

  Everyones eyes looked over, wanting to see who was the greedy and arrogant guy, but when they saw the person clearly, they were all stunned. It turned out to be Fang Xiangming, the new deputy commander of the Red Armys Left Wing Regiment.

  Yi Fangs position as a directional horn was originally not eligible for this occasion, but he now represents the Red Ocean Legion and his family is prominent, and he himself is the eldest son of the Fang family, so unexpectedly got a seat.

  It turned out that the one who spoke was Fang Ming, and Emperor Han Xians relaxed eyebrows furrowed again: "Fang Qing, your loyalty is commendable, but your troops are all cavalry, and when attacking a city, they are of no use at all. You can go down now."

  "Your Majesty, I wish to recommend someone, if he can join forces with him, perhaps he can alleviate Your Majestys worries."

  "Oh? Who is it? Tell me and let me hear." Emperor Han Xian asked curiously.

  "This is General Xu Haifeng of the Fifth Column of the Western Expedition Army." Direction Ming replied respectfully.

  "Xu Haifeng? Such a familiar name... Ah, could it be that Ten Greats leader who once joined forces with you to defeat the enemy?" Emperor Han Xian finally remembered.

  "This is the case. This man is currently serving as a deputy general of the Fifth Legion and has been working in perfect harmony with me. I request that Your Majesty grant his appointment."

  The old man suddenly came out of the crowd and said, "Your Majesty, this is the fifth vertical team of Xu Haifeng, currently with only three thousand slave soldiers. Wanting to take down Linan City is simply a fools dream. Please have Your Majesty investigate personally."

  "Your Majesty, General Xu has a way with training soldiers. Those three thousand slave soldiers have been trained by General Xu for three months and are now battle-hardened lions. I request that Your Majesty allow us to go into battle."

  "Absurd! Three months is all it takes to train three thousand slaves into an army, this has never been heard of before. I implore Your Majesty to reconsider."
