Chapter 5
The people next to him were amazed.
Especially since this guy is still a new army that has been in the army for less than a year, this kind of combat feats are difficult for even veterans who have been in battle for a long time to achieve!
However, at this time, in addition to being amazed, several of them were more excited.
Because they followed Yang Chen's side, they also fought one or two people, and they would also gain battle merits.
They fought desperately, didn't they just get knighted for the sake of military exploits?
For a moment, they looked at Yang Chen with gratitude.
If it weren't for Yang Chen by his side, if they wanted to gain battle merits, I am afraid it would not be so easy.
Woo woo ~ ~
The sound of a huge retreat horn echoed, and the Qin army retreated like a tidal wave.
Because not far away is the Zhao army city Chi Li City, if you attack without preparation, you will definitely suffer heavy losses.
Pedal ......
The Qin army quickly retreated, and only stopped after retreating to a safe place ten miles away from the city.
The army began to encamp, repair, and await its next move.
At this time, after a fierce battle, countless soldiers were exhausted, and after setting up their tents, they began to rest.
Day 2!
In one of the tents.
Dozens of soldiers were looking at Yang Chen on the side with a pair of incredulous eyes.
Because when he reported his exploits just now, there were as many as fifteen people who reported his exploits!
Behead fifteen people in a whole way!
The people in the entire camp were stunned, this young guy actually beheaded fifteen armor soldiers!
It's incredible!
What is the concept of a recruit killing fifteen armored soldiers?
You must know that among the dozens of people in this camp, except for him, the one who reported the highest combat merit was a veteran who beheaded three people.
And in the entire camp, he was the only one who beheaded three people, and the rest either had no combat exploits, or only killed one or two people.
But this guy alone beheaded fifteen people!
Everyone's eyes looked at Yang Chen with shock, and at the same time, there was an incomparably strong envy!
The Great Qin military merit title system is calculated based on the number of beheadings.
Beheading a person can obtain a first-class knighthood, in addition to the title of the year, will also give a field, a house, and a servant.
As for the titles and rewards that a recruit could receive by beheading fifteen people, they did not know, nor did they know how to calculate it.
Because they were just ordinary soldiers, they didn't even have a knighthood, and they would be happy to earn a first- or second-class title, and as for a higher title, they didn't even think about it.
But one thing is for sure, they know that this guy will definitely be promoted to several levels of knighthood after this battle, and even become their general.
"Brother Yang, I didn't expect you to be so strong, now that you have built this feat, it will definitely be reused, please take care of it in the future!"
Next to Yang Chen, the Wu Chief, and Shi Chang all walked over and said to Yang Chen very politely.
"Captain Wu and Shi Chang are polite, we have fought together, and we should take care of each other in the future!"
Yang Chen looked at a few people and responded politely, he was not arrogant because of his merits.
In addition to Wu Chang and Shi Chang, even the higher-level tun chiefs and hundred generals also came to Yang Chen's side, and they were both happy and amazed.
The exploits of the tun commander and the hundred generals are linked to the number of beheadings of the soldiers below, and this time Guang Yangchen killed fifteen people by himself, which made them extremely happy in their hearts.
Because they have gone through several battles without being promoted, the knighthood was achieved in this battle.
They love Yang Chen very much, and they can't wait for this guy to stay in their army forever and earn military merits for themselves.
It's just that they also know that such fierce men will definitely be reused, and they will soon surpass them.
Yang Chen also dealt with them politely.
In fact, he was also curious in his heart, and with his military exploits, he didn't know what title he could get.
In his memory, he knew that to obtain the title of Duke of the First Class, all he needed was to behead a man with armor and ensure that no one in his army was seriously injured or killed.
But the second-class knighthood and above are not clear to him.
However, he understood that it was not as simple and rude as killing one person to be promoted to a first-class title, otherwise it would be too easy to be promoted.
...
The camp tent of the Chinese army where the commander of the army, Wang Di, is located.
In the huge camp tent, the veteran general Wang Yi was wearing a military uniform and was standing at the top, and below him, the generals of each department stood in a row.
Wang Yi had a solemn face and was walking back and forth.
Below, a general is speaking.
"General, according to the last general, when the army captures Licheng, Licheng is an important city in Shangdang County, if Licheng is down, the cities of Shangdang County will be easy to go down. "
As soon as the general finished speaking, a general stood up and said with his fists clenched.
"General, the last general thinks that it should not be so rushed, the strength of the Zhao army is still there, and it is defended according to the city, if we attack Li City, our army may lose a lot!"
"The last general did not agree with General Zhang's words, now our army's morale is booming, the soldiers are vying to be the first to ask for battle, if you do not attack Li City, but turn to other cities, you will inevitably suffer fierce resistance from other cities, then this battle will not only take a long time, the number of losses is definitely not small. "
"The last general agrees with General Lee......
opinion."
Several generals expressed their opinions and argued.
When everyone was arguing fiercely, Wang Di, who was groaning, stopped and raised his arm to stop everyone's argument.
"What the generals said is reasonable, the generals have already made a decision, Li Cheng will be attacked, but before attacking Li Cheng, our army needs to be fully prepared!"
Wang Yi said in a deep voice.
When the people saw that Wang Ji had made up his mind, it was not good to argue at the moment.
At that moment, everyone began to discuss how to take Li Cheng with the least loss.
Pedal ......
At this time, a soldier quickly walked into the camp tent!
"General!".
The soldier saluted respectfully.
"Well, the battle damage and the number of beheadings of each battalion have been counted?"
Wang Yi looked up and saw the quartermaster lieutenant Chen Fang who came in, and said in a deep voice.
"Yes, General, 800 of our battalions were wounded and 650 were killed, and the total number of enemy troops beheaded was 2,500! This is a list of the beheadings of the officers and men of each battalion
Captain Chen Fang said quickly, and then handed a bundle of bamboo slips to Wang Yi.
The generals of the various departments were not too surprised when they heard the number of battle losses and beheadings, the Qin army not only had a numerical advantage, but also had a stronger morale and combat power and main generals than the other party.
It's a pity that neither side has sent all their forces to fight, otherwise if this battle can cut off most of the opponent's forces, it will definitely be easier to conquer Li City.
Wang Yi took the bamboo slips, sat down on the table and spread them out.
There were too many personnel lists, he quickly glanced at the many records on it, and was about to roll them up and hand them over to Chen Fang for publicity, when his movements suddenly hesitated.
Then his thick eyebrows raised, his eyes widened, and he stared at the name on the bamboo slip.
