Chapter 516: Sending Troops to the Border Great Wall
Jiang Chen stood on the high platform and loudly mobilized the 50,000 soldiers in front of him before the war.
Fifty thousand elite soldiers just stood there quietly, staring at Jiang Chen with a hint of excitement in their expressions.
For these soldiers, Jiang Chen is the person they admire most.
He led them all the way from the former northern border to rise, starting with going north to fight against the coalition forces of Qi and Ming.
It also went through a series of wars, including fighting against Xu Song, annihilating Northern Ming, and attacking Qi!
It was Jiang Chen who led them all the way and made them the "invincible" soldiers of Yan State!
Under such circumstances, Jiang Chen became the most steadfast belief of these soldiers.
"My fellow soldiers, follow me and go to war together!"
As Jiang Chen's voice fell, 50,000 soldiers shouted in unison.
"We are willing to follow your majesty to the battle!"
"We are willing to follow your majesty to the battle!"
Looking at the soldiers with resolute expressions on their faces, Jiang Chen also felt a sense of heroism in his heart.
Half a year later, Jiang Chen once again led his army and marched rapidly towards the direction of Western Shu Kingdom.
On the way, countless troops from all over Yan State arrived one after another, and under the leadership of Jiang Chen, they headed straight for Western Shu State.
In just three days, Jiang Chen had gathered 300,000 troops from all over Yan Country!
Among these 300,000 troops, there were 100,000 soldiers equipped with new muskets.
This also means that Yan State has officially passed the era of cold weapon warfare and started to transition to the era of hot weapons.
Among the first batch of 300,000 troops led by Jiang Chen to the border Great Wall, there were also 20,000 artillery soldiers equipped with new artillery.
When Jiang Chen led the 300,000-strong army to the border of Western Shu, the Western Shu soldiers guarding the border were shocked.
They thought that the Yan State was making such a big fuss because it was preparing to invade Western Shu.
But before they could come to their senses, they received orders from their commander.
"What are you all still standing there for? Hurry up and open the city gates to welcome His Majesty the Flame Emperor's army into the city!"
Upon hearing this order, all the soldiers of Western Shu were stunned and their eyes widened in disbelief.
They thought that they had heard it wrong, or that their commander had surrendered to the enemy.
However, before they could figure out the problem, the commander, seeing that they had not responded for a long time, went directly to the mechanism himself.
In this way, the commander, under the watchful eyes of his soldiers, slowly pulled up the city gate himself.
Looking at the open city gate, Jiang Chen did not hesitate and took the lead in leading the army to rush into the city.
In this border checkpoint, Jiang Chen and his companions did not stay for too long, but passed through directly and continued to head towards the border Great Wall.
After sending off 300,000 troops into the border of their country, the soldiers of Western Shu Kingdom still had not come to their senses.
Looking at the soldiers under his command, the commander in charge of guarding the entire border couldn't help but remind them loudly.
"All of you cheer up, this is just the first batch of Yan Nation's troops, there will be another 700,000 troops coming later!"
"They are all here to support the Great Wall at the border, not to invade us."
As the commander spoke, he looked at the Yan army receding on the horizon with some envy.
After hearing his words, a soldier from Western Shu asked him with some confusion.
"Commander, what happened to the border wall?"
"Two days ago, I received a letter from home. My eldest and second brothers, who were in the imperial guards of Kyoto, were transferred to the border wall."
Facing the soldier's question, the commander heaved a sigh of relief and answered slowly.
"I don't know either, but I do know that what's happening on the other side of the Great Wall is related to the survival of our entire human race."
"So, you can only pray for your two brothers."
After the commander finished speaking, he walked down the city wall and headed towards his residence without looking back.
When he answered the soldier's question just now, he actually hadn't said another sentence.
That is, the soldier should feel lucky, at least he is the only one among his descendants who survived.
As for the other Western Shu soldiers who were transferred to the border Great Wall, it is very likely that they will never come back...
After crossing the border of Western Shu, Jiang Chen led an army of 300,000 and traveled day and night, not daring to even stop.
Finally, after seven days of traveling day and night, the Yan State army led by Jiang Chen finally arrived at the border Great Wall.
At this time, a total of 200,000 troops from the three kingdoms of Shu, Jin, and Lu had gathered inside the border wall.
Obviously, apart from Yan State, the other two countries also understand the principle of "the lips and teeth are cold".
Faced with the critical moment of the revival of the demons, the states of Jin and Lu put aside their past grudges and sent troops to the border Great Wall at the same time.
However, due to some internal opposition in both countries, they have only sent 100,000 people each.
When Jiang Chen led his army to the border Great Wall, Zhang Wei, who had received the news, had already been guarding the city gate with the old man in hemp clothes and Wang Jinnian.
Also coming to greet them were generals from Jin and Lu, and behind them were their respective deputy generals.
Jiang Chen looked at Wang Jinnian and the old man in hemp clothes , and quickly signaled the Qilin to speed up.
After receiving the signal from its master, the Qilin beast came to the crowd at a rapid pace.
Seeing Jiang Chen, who had not been seen for half a month and was exhausted from the long journey, Wang Jinnian and the old man in hemp clothes came up to him with some heartache.
"Master, Senior Mai, what is the situation now?"
Jiang Chen turned over and got off the Qilin beast, came in front of everyone, and without waiting for anyone to speak, he was the first to ask.
Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't even have time to rest, he asked about the current situation of the Great Wall on the border.
Wang Jinnian, Jiang Chen's master, looked at the generals of Jin and Lu behind him with some sighs.
Compared with Jiang Chen, the two generals from Jin and Lu who led troops to support are simply not comparable!
After the two men arrived at the border wall, without even asking any questions, they set up camp with their respective 100,000 troops and began to rest.
As for Jiang Chen, he directly asked about the current situation of the Great Wall on the border.
In comparison, among the three, Jiang Chen is obviously better and knows how to behave!
Zhang Wei, the guard of the border wall, was deeply moved to see Jiang Chen cared so much about the border wall.
Zhang Wei, unable to control his emotions, had red eyes. He bowed to Jiang Chen and answered slowly.
"Your Majesty, after receiving assistance from the Ancient Holy Land and the states of Jin and Lu, we have repelled three attacks by the demons!"
