Chapter 1561: Establishing Authority, Volunteering, and Desperate
"Hei Niu, you go first!"

Although Qian Yue was angry at Su Mingzhe's brazen words, he was also afraid of really hurting Su Mingzhe.

So, he initially ordered a commander to lead a hundred men to attack.

Lu Heiniu was a close confidant that Qian Yue brought from his hometown in Jiangnan.

He was born with supernatural powers and had the courage to pull an ox backwards.

In addition, Qian Yue also found him a horizontal training kung fu to practice.

It can be said that in the Jiachen Army, in a private competition, Lu Heiniu's strength can only be ranked in the top five, but his ability to lead troops in charge is definitely the best.

When Su Mingzhe drew a circle to challenge everyone, the black bull also felt offended.

As soon as Qian Yue opened his mouth, Lu Heiniu immediately let out a roar, used Cheng Yaojin's three axes, and chopped Su Mingzhe in the waist with his saber.

"You black fellow, you have a kind heart!"

Su Mingzhe saw the first person who came to attack him. He was a dark and strong man. He didn't even bother to dodge. He just stretched out his hand and blocked the saber:

"But it's just too stupid. How can you be so careless when killing enemies on the battlefield? If you use the blade to chop me, I can still use some real kung fu to deal with it... But you use the back of the blade... Let's start again!"

Su Mingzhe said this, loosening his fingers that were holding the saber and letting the black man continue.

Lu Heiniu was able to become the commander-in-chief, so he was not really a reckless man. Seeing that Su Mingzhe easily resolved his "Sweeping the Thousands of Troops", his face darkened:
"Everyone, set up the snake formation!"

The snake formation is also known as the "long snake formation".

The Song people had a long-standing habit of arranging battle formations when training their troops.

The most famous master of formation is the famous 'Gaoliang River Chariot God'.

Every time the Song Dynasty sent an army to fight, the God of Chariots liked to give a military formation map to the generals, so that they could fight the enemy with the map.

It can be said that even Chiang Kai-shek would be ashamed of himself for the micro-control level of this driving god.

There is such an example in front of us. Later emperors of the Song Dynasty liked to send military formation maps to the army when they sent large armies to fight.

Even if they can't do it themselves, they will ask the Privy Council to do it.

Under the customs of the Song Dynasty, people follow the example of their superiors.

Even low-level military officers like to use military formations when training their troops.

Su Mingzhe provoked the entire Jiachen Army, drew a circle and stood inside it.

In the eyes of many people, this is "drawing a circle on the ground to make a prison".

Lu Heiniu keenly realized that this was the best time to use the snake formation.

A hundred people, led by Lu Heiniu, quickly surrounded Su Mingzhe.

Hundreds of long spears were pointed at Su Mingzhe within the circle.

"Enter!"

Lu Heiniu saw that Su Mingzhe was surrounded, but he didn't show any intention of dodging, which was blatant contempt.

Lu Heiniu was so angry that he didn't want to show mercy even though he knew that war is cruel.

"Go in again!"

"kill!"

The one hundred soldiers didn't care about that. Their superior ordered them to move forward, so they had to move forward even if Su Mingzhe had a higher rank.

"Huh? Why are you okay?"

The first ten people who stabbed Su Mingzhe with their spears felt that they had stabbed against stones, without making any progress. Instead, their hands became numb from the shock.

Qian Yue also noticed this, which made him stand there in a daze:
"So you've practiced the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt... No wonder you're so arrogant!"

"However, if you want to fight against my Jiachen Army just by practicing the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt, then you are underestimating me!"

After seeing Su Mingzhe's "trump card", Qian Yue felt that he had a better grasp of the situation and quickly said to Lu Heiniu:

"Don't hold back, just give it your all!"

If one person's strength is limited, then everyone's strength is great.

He just didn't believe that Su Mingzhe's well-trained body could really withstand the attacks all the time.

"Here!"

Lu Heiniu led the way, holding his saber and rushing towards Su Mingzhe again.

A hundred people followed closely behind, and each of them used all their strength in every attack.

Rao is so.

After three consecutive sprints.

Su Mingzhe was still standing steadily in the circle, but many of the one hundred soldiers were hit by the recoil, with cracks on their knuckles, which was considered minor injuries.

"Everyone come together!"

Qian Yue looked at Lu Heiniu with disdain, this guy really brought shame to him. He just stood there motionless, letting you chop and slash at him, but you couldn't hurt him at all.

If we go to the battlefield to fight, will we still have a chance to survive?

At this point.

Su Mingzhe has actually conquered everyone present.

However, he insisted on reviewing the strength of the entire Jiachen Army, so he still let everyone attack him.

In the end, two thousand people and three rounds of sprints were unable to hurt Su Mingzhe at all.

The sky was getting dark.

Su Mingzhe then waved his sleeves, facing the awe-inspiring gazes of the crowd, and slowly spoke:

"From today on, you are my subordinates. I have only one request for you, and that is to follow my footsteps closely and don't fall behind, because I will only move forward and never retreat!"

……

The training of the Song army was actually very hard.

Especially when wearing full armor, they have to run fifty miles during training.

This is equivalent to carrying a weight of 30 kilograms and marching for a day.

Because the training was hard, the Song army’s regular training was to go to the parade ground (for training) once every five days.

Su Mingzhe has higher requirements for his future "personal soldiers", including weight training once every five days and light training once a day.

In addition, they must learn to read and write and receive ideological education.

……

A month passed by in a flash.

The vanguard of the Mongolian army finally arrived at Xiangyang City.

Xiangyang Pacifier Lu Wende quickly invited everyone into the palace to discuss a good strategy to repel the enemy.

After everyone sat down, Su Mingzhe stood up first and spoke out his own solution:
"Master, the enemy has just arrived and has not yet set up camp. I want to lead the team to attack at night. If it works, we can defeat the enemy in one battle!"

"It is true that heroes have always emerged from youth!"

Seeing Su Mingzhe volunteering, Lu Wende applauded and asked:
"How many soldiers and horses will Young Master Su need to bring with him for this battle?"

"I only need eight thousand men!"

Seeing that Lu Wende agreed, Su Mingzhe immediately appointed:
"I will lead the attack, and my three junior brothers will provide support. Eight thousand men will be enough to defeat the enemy!"

During these days, in addition to training his own two thousand men, Su Mingzhe also did not forget to win over the generals and soldiers under the command of his three junior brothers.

After a month of getting along, Su Mingzhe has already gathered the hearts and minds of these eight thousand soldiers.

If they were asked to follow him in rebellion, they would definitely not do it.

However, if they were to accompany him in a night raid on the enemy camp, they would definitely not retreat!
After all, these days, I often take them for long-distance running training at night.

No matter how dumb these generals and soldiers were, they would have guessed that he was going to lead them in a night attack.

Lu Wende immediately nodded and agreed to Su Mingzhe's request.

Yang Guo, Da Wu and Xiao Wu are not qualified to attend today's meeting.

Even Huang Rong didn’t come.

Seeing that his eldest disciple volunteered without consulting him, Guo Jing became anxious and frowned.

End of the meeting.

Left Lu's house.

Guo Jing immediately stopped his disciple in his tracks:
"Mingzhe, how confident are you about this military expedition?"

"Master, when the Mongolian army arrived yesterday, I went out of the city to observe their military appearance and discipline. They are indeed a strong army!"

Su Mingzhe first affirmed the enemy, then chuckled and said:

"However, the vanguard of the Mongolian army seemed a bit arrogant and actually set up their camp in a desperate situation!"

"Jedi? What Jedi?"

Guo Jing was originally very worried about the night attack by his four disciples.

His original intention in stopping Su Mingzhe this time was to bring along the heroes of the martial arts world and the disciples of the Beggars' Sect to help.

However, when he heard Su Mingzhe say that the Mongolian army's camp was on some desperate place, he immediately became interested.

Su Mingzhe immediately told Guo Jing the desperate location of the Tartar military camp.

After hearing this, Guo Jing was immediately overjoyed and could not help but return to Lu's mansion to order the entire army to go out.

It was Su Mingzhe who stopped him:
"Master, the Tartars have only sent a vanguard. If we go out in full force, we can at most destroy two Wanhu. It would be better to wait until the Tartar army arrives. It won't be too late to move out then..."
