In this case, Li Quan also heard from Shangguan Rou'er, so he didn't worry anymore.

……

……

After marching for half a month, one hundred thousand soldiers finally reached the border of Dahua, south of the Man River.

The familiar yellow sand landform appeared in front of us again. This place belongs to Yizhou. Because the war six years ago only ended here and the peace talks began, so there is still a small part of Yizhou that has not been taken back, and it is still under the control of Dahua. , the border guards are also stationed here.

It's not that Daqing is incapable of taking back the last corner of Yizhou, but because this last corner belongs to the most barren area of ​​Yizhou, where there is only yellow sand and storms, and even the Man River flowing through here is dim yellow.

In the eyes of some people, this is a very tasteless piece of land, so Daqing did not ask for the return of this last piece of land after the big victory.

Naturally, Dahua will not take the initiative to return it. Since he doesn't want it, he can just keep it.

No matter which emperor, the territory will never be too much.

Occupying the most barren piece of land, the sufferers are naturally the soldiers stationed here.

At the same time, there is also a new name here, Manzhou, which just matches Yizhou, and at the same time combines the artistic conception of Manhe, which actually means the land of barbarians.

The soldiers here also built an earthen city called Mancheng, which is the only city in Manzhou.

When he came to Manzhou, the first time he saw Manzhou soldiers, Li Quan found that they were very different from the soldiers he brought from the capital.

Their shiny, wheat-colored skin is their symbol. They are dry, strong, simple, full of power, and there is a look of rebellion in their eyes.

Compared with the soldiers in the capital, it is like the difference between Ye Luzi and the students in the class. As for who has the stronger combat effectiveness, it can only be seen on the battlefield.

There were originally 180 garrisons in Manzhou, but the 10 million troops that the emperor said were still gathering. At present, the [-] troops that Li Quan brought from the capital were the first to reach the front line.

Of course, the pass bordering Daqing and Dahua is far more than Manzhou, and 180 million troops have to be stationed at each pass.It's just that Yizhou will be used as the entrance to enter the army, and most of Dahua's troops will be concentrated.

On the first day when the big troops arrived in Manzhou, these soldiers from the capital, who were accustomed to the climate of raising people in the capital, soon felt unwell. Dry lips and bleeding were just a common occurrence, dizziness, dizziness and acclimatization, and there were countless sick people.

This is a difficulty that no one expected, and there is no other way to solve the difficulty. We can only rest for a while and wait for the soldiers to adapt to the environment.

It is very cumbersome to resettle 10 people. Fortunately, Li Quan doesn't have to worry about these things, and free people in the army arrange them.

On the same day, Li Quan entered Mancheng.

Entering Mancheng, Li Quan felt the familiar smell again.

This earth city is too similar to the hills that used to be, with almost the same structure, the only difference is that Mancheng has not experienced a real bloody battle like the hills, and the city still looks very young.

Coming to Yizhou again, Li Quan felt that everything here was very friendly, and unconsciously remembered the military career he had experienced here.

Perhaps that was not considered a military career. Li Quan was just a spectator by the side and saw many true stories.

Thinking back, I couldn't help but feel a surge of enthusiasm in my heart, and suddenly felt that my life was short of being in Wanjun.

On Mancheng Street, there are no small merchants, only soldiers talking and laughing, training, or resting. Those handsome eyes will always stay on Li Quan, and then stand upright and respectfully waiting for Li Quan to follow them. Passed by, and then returned to the previous state.

Li Quan walked in the front, walking very slowly, and stopped when he walked. He touched the city wall beside him, feeling the unevenness on it and the touch of fine sand and chrome hands.

Everything here is like this seemingly irregular city wall, which is simple but very real, and can always withstand the most violent attacks.

"I don't know how many frontier soldiers in the hills with me back then?"

Li Quan looked up to the sky and thought, with a sentimental expression on his face.

He was immersed in his own world, but he didn't notice the faces of the accompanying soldiers behind him.

Whether it was the soldiers from the capital or the generals who had been staying at the frontier, they always had their own attitudes towards the general in front of them.

Who is Li Quan?

Even the emperor didn't figure it out, how could these generals figure it out?

In the final analysis, it is because of unknown origin, but conferring the status of a general, how can they be convinced?

If they had learned of Li Quan's identity and experience, they probably wouldn't have such emotions, but Li Quan could not reveal his identity.After all, he used to be an important minister of Daqing, and he caused a lot of trouble for Dahua.The emperor was ordered to completely trust him when he was in danger, but these generals might not be able to do so, and they would only cause more troubles.

The most basic contradiction has not been resolved, and now that Li Quan is so sentimental, the soldiers behind him are all frowning and looking at each other.

It was obvious that they were not satisfied, thinking how could the emperor send someone like this to lead them?

It is not uncommon for officers and soldiers to be dissatisfied. Almost all new officials will face such a situation when they take office, but it is probably rare for an official like Li Quan to make everyone suspicious.

On the contrary, Li Quan felt that his emotions were nothing. Revisiting the old place and feeling hurt was a normal emotion that a person with deep meaning should have. He didn't pay attention to the emotions in the eyes of the soldiers behind him, and continued to walk slowly.

After finally reaching the meeting hall in the city, thirty generals, big and small, lined up on both sides and sent Li Quan to the commander-in-chief seat.

Every man has a dream of being a hero in his heart. Now that Li Quan is wearing the golden armor of a general and sitting in the position of a general, he is inevitably a little proud.

A disdainful snort came from below, breaking the calm in the hall.

Li Quan frowned slightly: "Who is it?"

"I!"

After the haughty voice, an old general with a gray beard stood up. This man was old, but he was also very strong. The arrogance in his eyes showed that he was a person who regarded himself as grand.

Li Quan would not see a veteran and compare him with Huang Zhong and Lian Po, and those who think too highly of themselves may be mediocre.

However, the old general's snort made Li Quan notice the emotions of the generals in the hall.

Li Quan took out a military talisman and put it on the table: "Who is the old general? What do you say about this general?"

"Liu Bufan, the last general, I don't dare to say anything else, I just want to know why the general is here today? Is it Chajun or playing?"

Li Quan pointed to the soldier talisman on the table: "Here is the emperor's soldier talisman, let this general command all the soldiers, do you think it will be for fun?"

"Since you are in command of the sergeants, you should hurry up and talk to the generals about your plans and how to fight this battle? How much time did the general waste along the way? So procrastinating, it is better to let the last general train the sergeants. "

Li Quan was not annoyed, and asked back with a smile: "Old General Liu, you should have fought a lot at your age, right?"

"Huh!" Liu Bufan looked arrogant, "The last general is not talented. He has been in the army for fifty years and has experienced hundreds of battles, large and small."

"Did you participate in the battle six years ago?"

"Of course! The final general will kill no less than a hundred enemies!"

"Let's not talk about killing the enemy first, let's talk about General Liu saying that he is in a hurry to train sergeants. How long has General Liu been training sergeants?"

"Train new troops for no less than [-] years!"

Speaking of the past, General Liu is so proud!
