CHAPTER 1766: CHAPTER 1767

Being watched by so many people, you initially felt a bit uncomfortable, but he quickly adjusted his mindset: "My ancestors were also soldiers, so my family retained some methods to deal with enemies. Don’t we all have long spears? We only need to form a formation of five people, coordinating our attacks and supporting each other. Even though we may not kill many enemies, self-defense shouldn’t be an issue. After all, I observed yesterday that our enemies are quite similar to us, just some infantry. In fact, maybe they’re even more afraid of death than we are."

"You little kid, I thought it was some good method! Do you think this is child’s play? Naive!" The man with the broken left arm sneered, then lay down on the ground, resting by himself.

"Mu Yun, although you young people are full of vigor, survival is still the most important thing! If there’s another battle tomorrow, you still follow me."

You nodded, then lay down and closed your eyes to rest.

Your thoughts were different from the others. In your view, gaining military merits on the battlefield was actually the simplest. After experiencing life and death yesterday, you suddenly gained a sense of understanding. Although recalling it still made your legs a bit weak, having that experience made you believe you’d do better next time.

There are so many infantry in the camp, not everyone plays dead like Wang Xi to get by. They must be bravely killing enemies and fighting for a brilliant future for themselves.

The next day, the battle resumed between both sides!

The drumbeats thundered across the land.

Before going into battle, a group of people still came to distribute weapons. The bearded man spotted you instantly in the crowd. Though you looked young, your height was prominent, standing tall at about 1.8 meters, and your face left a good impression.

"You kid, you really survived, huh? Not bad!" The bearded man approached you, patting your shoulder with a smile, "Since you survived, it means you have some skills. At the very least, you’re a thinker. I’m in a good mood today, tell me, what weapon do you want?"

You didn’t expect to choose your weapon, so you immediately thanked the bearded man: "Thank you, Elder Brother! I hope to have the same long spear as yesterday!"

"Oh?" The bearded man raised an eyebrow, then called out to someone behind him, "Little Liu!"

"Tch! You jinx!" Little Liu grumbled as he tossed the spear with a red tassel to you, "I just got it from Shangguan!"

The bearded man gave Little Liu a slap on the back of his head and scolded, "You little brat still wet behind the ears, daring to call yourself ’I’?"

"Brother, brother, I won’t dare again, just speaking casually." Little Liu quickly ran to the side, knowing well the temper of the bearded man, and if he didn’t evade, he might get a more physical lesson.

The bearded man continued to pat your shoulder with a smile, saying, "I don’t see you as someone with short life; if I see you again, I’ll let you join the regular army!"

"Hm!" You nodded seriously.

For someone new like you, the only path now is to climb upward, and in the army, although there’s constant danger to life, survival necessitates it.

You’re different from everyone else in this world, even if you encountered Cao Cao right now, you wouldn’t be scared to the point of losing control.

Because, he is Li Muyun!

These three simple words are enough!

Yesterday, you hadn’t regained your state, especially unclear of the era you were in. Upon realizing it was the turbulent end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, you felt your blood boiling, repeatedly telling yourself to use every means possible to ultimately stand at the pinnacle of this world, then righteously confront the Empress!

And now, the first hurdle you face is to survive!

The drums sounded again, and with the continuous thunderous drumming, you infantry were placed at the right front.

Simultaneously, someone in the crowd shouted: "Look! It’s cavalry!"

This was the first time that the infantry were so close to the cavalry, although separated by about a hundred meters, the stark reality presented to every infantry is that at this moment they’re not just fodder, but warriors who can march alongside the regular army!

Originally, the infantry were just recruits dragged from nearby, untrained, meant to deplete enemy forces. However, Gao Lan did not anticipate that Lü Bu was well-prepared, having also drafted a similar number of recruits. Even though the number of infantry decreased, reinforcements were sent every few days, prolonging the fight for over half a year.

Yesterday, Gao Lan broke through Lü Bu’s cavalry and also received orders from Lord Yuan Shao, to resolve the situation with Lü Bu soon, repel him, and drive his Iron Riders out of Puyang.

Meanwhile, the infantry noticed a small team splitting from the cavalry team, focused around a young general on a white horse. This young general on White Horse was exceptionally handsome, holding a long silver spear, looking exceedingly mighty from afar.

White horse, silver gun, along with a handsome face, a figure instantly flashed in your mind, Changshan Zhao Zilong!

Seeing this legendary formidable person, your heart was instantly at ease. Now, what you thought about was how to seize some military merits in this battle. Anyone who has read the Three Kingdoms novel knows that forming ties with those heroes of the time is an excellent thing. With good eloquence and luck, one might even become sworn brothers with them, and then walk across the land with ease.

The young general on the white horse reined in front of the infantry, yelling loudly to everyone: "When the three drums sound, you will follow me in the charge!"

The infantry would at most just yell out loud a few times, but they wouldn’t charge along with these cavalry. They were regular army, if killed in battle, their families would receive decent compensation, but as infantry, they weren’t even registered in the records; if they died, they’d just be thrown into a mass grave - not even a tombstone. Who would be foolish enough to do that?

Of course, you are an exception. Unlike the others, you are eager, even wanting to ride alongside that young general on the battlefield!

Blood and flesh flying, blood staining the battlefield!

On the third drum beat in the rear, as the sound reached everyone’s ears, the slightly quiet formation suddenly erupted in deafening shouts of killing. Even though you were mentally prepared, at that moment, your ears went deaf again, hearing nothing but your own breathing. All you could do was hold the long spear and tightly follow the main force forward.

Running nearly hundreds of meters, just as you felt a bit out of breath, Wang Xi slowly approached by your side, grabbed your hand, signaling you to follow him.

This time, you shook your head, pointing to the front, a trace of determination flashing in your eyes.
