Chapter 492: Lost Ju Yi
The news from Congling soon spread back to Luoyang.
Chen Xi nodded with satisfaction. The casualties were close to one to ten, and more than five thousand people were captured. This was a very good answer.
"It seems that I underestimated Zhuge Kongming!" Xun Yu touched his chin in surprise. He didn't expect that he had misjudged him. "If I had known this, there would be no need to transfer Xiandeng from Youzhou."
"This time, Kong Ming has truly begun to compete with us!" Chen Xi sighed.
"It's still early!" Xun Yu laughed and said.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. You've read the news sent back by the general. It's time to rectify the administration of officials!"
Chen Xi changed the subject. He actually had great confidence in Zhuge Liang. The embodiment of eternal wisdom, Zhuge Wuhou, was beginning to shine.
"Yao Chong! The general's first counselor, Zichuan, you are in big trouble!" Xun Yu teased. Although he had never seen Yao Chong, he could see some clues from the fact that Xiliang, where Guo Hao started his career, had always been controlled by Yao Chong.
What's more, Sima Lang and Zhuge Jin both admired Yao Chong very much. Whenever the two of them in Xiliang made reports, they would always mix in some information about Yao Chong.
"It's time for Cheng Yu to get up. I'll hand over his work to you. Come up with a charter before the New Year."
Chen Xi ignored Xun Yu's teasing. He had too many troubles. It wasn't just Yao Chong. Even the Xun Yu in front of him with thick eyebrows and big eyes was a big trouble for him.
"I understand. I will urge him. Yuan Gonglu has already started violent demolition in Jizhou. What do you think?" Xun Yu smiled and did not dwell on it too much. Instead, he brought up another matter .
"Yuan Gonglu!" Chen Xi couldn't help but think of what Yuan Shu said when he saw him, "He's a lunatic!"
"Oh ? That's a really special comment!"
Xun Yu was somewhat surprised by Chen Xi's evaluation. In his mind, Yuan Shu was just a guy with lofty ambitions but a fragile life. If he hadn't bet on the right horse, he would have died sooner or later because of his own arrogance.
According to the original fate, Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor and died a violent death, which was indeed a death caused by his arrogance.
"He is different from all of you. It's hard to describe him, but if you ask me, he is the one who looks most like a noble family!"
Chen Xi smiled and did not delve into the issue of Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu was too special, so special that he didn't know what to say.
Xun Yu was very surprised, but he did not ask any more questions. He was just curious about Chen Xi's evaluation and planned to find out more about Yuan Shu in private. To receive such an evaluation from Chen Xi, there must be something special about him.
Xiandeng, who was ignored by the two, was actually in trouble at this time.
In order to hurry on his way, Ju Yi decided to cross the grassland and then force his way to the Western Regions. After all, a half-military soul is still a military soul, and crossing the grassland is no big deal.
But the problem is that Ju Yi is lost, and the grassland and desert are not good places.
There were countless soldiers who got lost on the grasslands. The most famous one was naturally Li Guang. Because he got lost, he never got a title of nobility in his life and was almost nailed to the pillar of shame.
It's also a bit of metaphysics. In order to make Li Guang a marquis, Emperor Wu of Han even sent Zhang Qian to Li Guang.
Who is Zhang Qian? He is a ruthless man who opened up the Silk Road. Needless to say, his sense of direction is excellent. He can be called a human-shaped map.
But it was of no use. Li Guang still got lost, and took Zhang Qian with him.
In comparison, a handsome guy who crossed the desert and conquered the Wolf's Lair is completely unreasonable.
Without a map, you can just go to your hometown without getting lost.
Ju Yi obviously didn't have the ability of the handsome guy, and he tragically got lost on the grassland.
Ju Yi understood that as long as he walked south, he would definitely be able to get back.
But he couldn't go home. If he went back soon, it would mean he was lost. For a commander, getting lost was a big taboo.
By then, everyone will have the impression that they are lost, and in future wars, they will have to stay at home every day.
Anyway, it's winter now, so there's no chance of war. It's okay for him to just stroll outside and train his soldiers.
If you haven't arrived by spring, it won't be too late to ask for help then.
For this reason, Ju Yi could only head westward. He felt that since the Western Regions were in the west, he would be able to find the Pamir Mountains sooner or later.
When he was in Youzhou, he was not idle either. He derives a subsidiary troop type for the vanguard , the halberd soldiers.
Originally, he had envisioned that the vanguard of death squads should be a whole, consisting of heavily armed crossbowmen who could fight and resist.
However, the awkward situation of half a military soul forced him to start considering the positioning of the halberd warrior. Although he lacked the ultimate move of the military soul, Xiandeng made up for it with the lethality of the explosion.
However, it lacked something in close combat, so Ju Yi simply abandoned the further close combat development of the vanguard soldiers and focused on developing the attack endurance capability in an all-round way.
Then they took out the discarded part and used it to train halberd warriors. The results were very good. Relying on the foundation of the Youzhou veterans, they quickly trained a group of double-talented halberd warriors.
Because of its linkage with the vanguard, Ju Yi directly raised the positioning of this thing to the level of a front-line troop.
It is equivalent to the status of Iron Cavalry to Flying Bear, Wolf Cavalry to Breakthrough Formation, and Yulin Guard to Yulin Army.
Directly promoted to become one of the four core branches of the military. Of course, this was achieved with the help of the empire's will and the uniqueness of the military spirit.
It would take at least three to five years for Ju Yi to design a core force that can compete with the wolf cavalry and iron cavalry.
"Hiss, what the hell is this!"
Ju Yi looked at the monster in front of him that was beaten into a sieve and was speechless. He had lived for so many years, but this was the first time he had seen so many strange creatures.
The creature in front of me has a sheep's head, a lion's head, and a dragon head that looks a bit like the legendary dragon head, but of course it looks more like a lizard.
His strength is close to that of leaving the body, but there is something wrong with his brain. He actually charged straight into the army to hunt.
At that time, Ju Yi was unhappy, so he directly pressed down with cloud energy and had the hundred-man team shoot a round, which directly turned the monster into a sieve.
"Pack up, pack up, set up the pot and cook, two hundred-man teams on alert, and the rest of you rest here!" Ju Yi became interested. This monster might taste delicious. It was also time for dinner, so it was just the right time to set up the pot and cook.
The roasted monster meat gave off a special aroma. Relying on the power of his military soul, Ju Yi didn't worry about the meat at all and took a big bite.
"hiss!!!"
Ju Yi was stunned, this thing was too delicious, it instantly beat all the meat he had eaten before. You know, he just added a little salt. If it was cooked by a chef, how delicious would it be.
"General, there are unidentified humans approaching from the north!" Ju Yi, who was enjoying his meal, received a notification from the scout.
