Invincible Iron Army 62, let's talk about book flags again

  The leader of the army shouted to Wang An: "The militia of Nanyang, Guyang has assembled and is waiting for General Wang's dispatch." Wu Guo saw that the surrounding army was fully armed and knew that this was an army that had participated in the Battle of Guyang, with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

  The militiamen of Youyu shouted in unison, preparing to attack. At this time, Wu Ge loudly shouted: "Wait a minute, do you know who I am?" One of the militiamen of Youyu said: "I don't care who you are." Wu Ge loudly shouted: "This is the army of Youyu, killing me is against the law, this is gathering crowds to rebel, and it will be exterminated for nine clans!" The militiamen of Youyu hesitated.

  "Wang An shouted: 'We are not rebelling, but eradicating bandits. That Zuo Shan has admitted his guilt, and this Wu Ge is actually colluding with the bandit army, intending to attack Yu Yang from inside and out. For the safety of Yu Yang, we will disregard our own danger and eradicate this bandit force.' The militia of Yu Yang immediately charged forward. 'Wait!' Wu Ge shouted again: 'Wang An, aren't you the one who hates bullying the weak? Let's each send 2,000 men to fight one-on-one.' Wang An said: 'I am not bullying the weak, but using the weak to defeat the strong. We will use our militia to eliminate this bandit force. Brothers, don't need to give me face, kill them all.' Wang An had already seen that Wu Ge had murderous intentions towards him. Since that's the case, then he would kill him and thoroughly eliminate this hidden danger."

  Wang An's army charged forward, dense arrows shot out, and many of the outer city guards fell down. Wang An's army killed their way to the middle again. "Halt!" At this time, Du Lin, the defensive envoy, and Liu Jiao, the regional commander, arrived. Du Lin ordered the army: "I order you to release the inner city troops immediately." "Who do you think you are?" The Yu Yang militia said disdainfully. "How dare you," Du Lin said. At this time, some of the Yu Yang soldiers aimed their crossbows at Du Lin, ready to shoot. Just as Du Lin was about to speak, Liu Jiao hastily stopped him. She saw the southern city militia and revealed a hint of...

  Wang An's militia did not receive Wang An's order and continued to maintain vigilance against this army, ready to kill them at any time.

  Liu Jiao came inside and said to Wang An, "You're so arrogant, you want to eliminate the country's soldiers? Are you trying to rebel? Do you think that just because you have merit in the defense of Puyu, you can do whatever you want?" Wang An said, "I don't dare." Liu Jiao said, "If you don't dare, then withdraw your troops." Wang An said, "Withdraw the siege on the official soldiers," but the militia in the south city didn't move at all. Liu Jiao looked at Wang An angrily and said, "Wang An, why aren't your troops following orders?" Wang An also looked puzzled and said, "Yes, why aren't they following orders?" Wang An shouted loudly, "Why aren't you following orders?" Jiang Cai immediately came out and said, "We're surrounding a group of bandits, not official soldiers, so we can't retreat." Jiang Cai had been with Wang An for a long time and knew his thoughts. Moreover, the soldiers in Puyu were all angry and thought to themselves, "You were so arrogant earlier, who wouldn't hate you? If we don't teach you a lesson, you won't know our power." Wang An pretended to be enlightened and said to Liu Jiao, "Commander, you're mistaken. We're dealing with a group of bandits. Do you see that sly person in the siege circle? He says he's a bandit, and Wu Ge's troops are colluding with the bandits, they must have ulterior motives. We'll help you eliminate the bandits, and you don't need to thank us." Du Lin hastily said, "You say they're bandits, what evidence do you have?" Wang An said, "Tens of thousands of soldiers here heard him admit it himself, is there any doubt? You're covering up for this army, are you trying to collude with them to attack Puyu City together?" Du Lin was so scared that he started sweating and said, "Wang An, don't talk nonsense." Liu Jiao was suspicious and Wu Ge and Zuo Shan Duo loudly denied it. Wang An said, "Commander, to prove their innocence, please let them put down their weapons and let us inspect them carefully." Wu Ge didn't dare resist anymore because Wang An was looking for an opportunity to eliminate them.

  Wu Ge put down his weapons to show his innocence, but Wang An's troops rushed forward and started beating these soldiers with fists and feet, shouting: "Let you little ones beat me", in an instant, a cry of grief. Liu Jiao said: "Wang An, this is personal revenge", Du Lin also said: "Wang An, this is framing the innocent", Wang An said: "Their soldiers occupied our military camp, and beat our soldiers, so the soldiers are angry, this is understandable".

  Liu Jiao immediately asked Du Lin: "What's going on, why are your soldiers so bold, daring to change the soldier's garrison location without permission?" Du Lin's head was covered in cold sweat, and he could only say: "I was momentarily careless, I didn't expect Wu Ge to be so bold as to even snatch Wang An's garrison location."

  Wang An said: "Commander, at the time when you were besieged in Yuyang, there was a shortage of food in the city. I invited you to have a big meal then. Now that the whole army is here, are you going to invite them to have a big meal too?" Liu Jiao rolled her eyes and thought to herself: "Where would I get so much money from?"

  Liu Jiao only had to go with Du Lin to a restaurant by the road and ordered a private room. After ordering, Wang An knew that Liu Jiao would pay the bill later, so he immediately told the waiter: "Now it's the governor who is treating us, you should bring out the expensive dishes, do you understand?" The waiter immediately responded with excitement.

  Dulin said to Wang An, "Wang An, Wu Ge has been serving at the border for many years and has made countless military achievements. We should believe in him." Wang An asked in surprise, "Is that true? Then how many Xiongnu soldiers did he actually eliminate?" Dulin was momentarily speechless, thinking to himself, "Who can be compared to you? The number of Xiongnu soldiers killed under your command is counted in tens of thousands, while Wu Ge's achievements are only a few hundred."

  Du Lin immediately changed his approach and started being affectionate with Wang An, who unexpectedly opened up to him and began discussing the Fishing Town Defense War.

  Dulin was inwardly anxious, knowing that Wu Ge was being beaten outside, but he had to respond to Wang An's words, fearing that he would provoke him. Liu Jiao understood the meaning in Dulin's eyes and immediately said to Wang An: "Wang An, don't say these things anymore, let's talk about something else." Wang An said in surprise: "We've only just started discussing the Battle of Yu Yang, we can continue talking, Dulin will definitely like it." Dulin protested silently in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face as he nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, I really enjoy discussing these things." In his heart, Dulin secretly lamented, thinking that Wu Ge was being beaten outside, and if they continued to discuss the Battle of Yu Yang until its end, they would soon be going to collect his corpse.

  Liu Jiao didn't entangle with Wang An on this topic, and continued to say: "Wang An, if you don't have conclusive evidence, then let Wu Ge go. He took your camp, I'll take charge of returning it to you, what do you think?"

  Wang An nodded and said, "Okay", Du Lin let out a sigh of relief, thinking that this was the end of it. Wang An said, "However, our army suffered heavy losses in battle, many soldiers were injured, you should provide them with medical expenses". Du Lin cursed inwardly, thinking, "Your soldiers are still beating up Wu Ge's soldiers right now, they won't be able to get out of bed for a month after they return. You're actually asking us for medical expenses? Don't you have any shame?"

  At this time, the miserable cries of Duling and others reached Wu E's and Duling's ears. Duling was also very anxious in his heart, thinking that he couldn't wait any longer, otherwise Wu Ge's injuries would become more and more serious.

  "Alright," Dulin said, "I'm willing to pay 10,000 taels for your army's medical expenses, so you should be satisfied now." Wang An hastily said, "Alright, we'll definitely give the Defense Envoy face." Dulin felt a wave of helplessness and thought to himself, "This is truly shameless. They've extorted so much money from me and yet they still say they're giving me face."

  Wu Ge was beaten until his nose was blue and swollen, now he kept saying: "Don't hit me anymore, I'm a bandit, I'm a bandit". Zuo Shan's tone was even more arrogant than Wu Ge's, saying: "I'm an official soldier, not a bandit. You're hitting me, are you trying to rebel?" Du Lin watched with a continuous shake of his head, thinking to himself: how did I end up saving such a useless person like Wu Ge?

  Zuo Shanbiao was released, he glanced at Wang An and left in a huff, thinking about how to gather the bandits lurking on the border and annihilate Wang An's army on his way back.

  Wu Guo only managed to prepare the military camp for Wang An's army, his troops were almost all sick and had no strength to participate in the upcoming martial arts competition.

  Wang An rewarded Wang Hu because he abandoned Wang An and others at a critical moment, went to move troops, and finally invited the original old soldiers of Wang An. After resolving this crisis, when Wang Hu proudly left Wang An's residence, he was beaten by Zhao Long and the soldiers who had been beaten by Wang Hu for abandoning them before. Wang Hu rubbed his sore body and kept sighing: "Coming out to mix, sooner or later it will be paid back".

  Wang An and his soldiers entered this military camp, which had very good living conditions and was even equipped with chefs.

  Wang An, Jiang Cai, Du Lu, Li Li and Zhang Wan had dinner together with soldiers who used to fight against the Xiongnu in Nancheng.

  They sat on the ground in the open air, lit a bonfire, and roasted mutton on it. The oil dripped continuously onto the fire. The roasted meat emitted an enticing aroma.

  Wang An and his comrades were drinking to the bottom of their cups, reminiscing about past years. When they talked about how they had made the famous General Zuo Xian Wang run naked, they all burst out laughing. The new recruits looked at them with admiration in their hearts, thinking that they too must establish meritorious achievements and leave a name for posterity.
