"I must come here as a friend." Zhao Ping was stunned for a moment, with a little excited expression. It was very common to call a friend in the chat and there was no need to care about it at all. However, he also asked him to attend the wedding as a friend, which seemed to really treat him as a friend. Although Zhao Ping was not a person who was inclined to the enemy, he was inevitably excited to be treated as someone by the deputy guardian.

"Remember to take the gift." Liu Qi joked again.

"You must follow the gift." Zhao Ping also said with a smile, then turned around and left.

Seeing him leave, Liu Qi smiled again, stuffed a few things into his sleeves, and went to discuss things with Li Gong. But when he arrived at Li Gong's public housing, he did not see anyone. When he asked the guards who were left behind, he learned that Li Gong had gone to the schoolyard to watch the soldiers' training today.

‘Didn’t he say he was busy, why did he have time to go to the school to watch the soldiers’ training?’ Liu Qi complained in his heart, but he had to go to the school to look for it.

...

...

"The guardians, all the soldiers who participated in street fighting have completed training and are already elite soldiers. Moreover, because they have participated in cruel battles, their combat power is even higher than that of the soldiers led by Duan Duwei and others." At this time, a general reported to Li Gong at the school ground. He was a little surprised that Li Gong suddenly appeared here, but he still reported meticulously.

When Li Gong heard the general say that "the combat power is more than the soldiers led by Duan Duwei and others." Li Gong smiled slightly. Regardless of whether the combat power is stronger than Duan Xiushi and others, since this general has participated in street fighting, he will definitely say this; he has heard more than one general who has participated in street fighting say this.

"Okay, very good. It seems that you have taken care of yourself, and you have also taken care of yourself from Liu Qi. Who is your surname? Now you are the captain of this regiment?"

"Qi Bizhun's Protector, his subordinate named Yang Keshi, is now the Protector of this group." The general bowed.

He was Yang Guzheng, who had previously commanded Danfu and others. After the war, he passed the brigade commander and was promoted to the lieutenant, and led a large group with six teams. Not only him, but his team of people who were still alive were promoted.

"Keshi? Is this name obtained in the past two years?"

"The Protector is a good guess. This is taken after the war with the Great Cannibal, and it means defeating the enemy and defeating the Great Cannibal."

"Okay, okay." Li Gong praised, stopped talking to him, and wandered around the school grounds. Yang Keshi followed him and was surrounded by guards.

Li Gong watched how the soldiers trained for a while. He had been in Anxi for nearly two years and had experienced the Battle of Luzhou. Although he was still scared when he commanded himself, his vision was already very accurate.

In his opinion, the training level of these soldiers in front of him is indeed no less than that of the soldiers led by Duan Xiushi. Perhaps because of the street fighting, there was an unspeakable meaning in his eyes, which made people involuntarily feel that they would definitely win.

‘If the more than 12,000 soldiers who survived in street battles were like this, their combat power was indeed stronger than the elites around them.’ Li Gong couldn’t help but think.

"Keshi, I remember that there were eight people under your command who had a fire. Are these eight people still soldiers now? Are they still in your group?" He remembered this incident again and asked.

"The Protectorate is still in his subordinate team." Yang Keshi introduced. "This regiment is a large regiment, with three brigades and six teams; at that time, eight people from the fire, Xia Chuantao and Cao Fanghao were promoted to brigade commanders, and each led a brigade; Danfu and Mit were team leaders under Xia Chuantao, Cao Fangfeng and Shi Nai were team leaders under Cao Fanghao's commanders; his former deputy Zhou Shiliang was also team leaders under the brigade commanders, and Renault was team leaders under his command.

The last man, Song Wu, was very strange and did not want to be an official. His subordinates repeatedly persuaded him to be the chief of fire. Now he is in Cao Fangfeng's team."

"In other words, you have three team coaches under your command, six team members, and seven of them are from that fire. Are you worried that you will be undermined?" Li Gong joked.

"With the rules in the army, how can the subordinates be undermined? Moreover, the subordinates are also fighting from beginning to end in street fighting, so they dare not undermine their subordinates."

Yang Keshi's words contain a strong sense of confidence. As an old boss who has been experienced in battle, if he is under his jurisdiction, he might as well commit suicide.

"This is a heroic saying." At this time, they happened to walk near the barracks. Li Gong ordered people to bring two glasses of water. He picked up one and said to Yang Ke's esophagus: "This is training time, and drinking is prohibited in the army, so I will not make an exception. Just use water instead of wine and toast Yang Jiawei a glass."

"Thank you, Protector." Yang Keshi was overjoyed and quickly picked up the cup and drank it first.

"Okay." Li Gong said with a smile.

After drinking this glass of water, he continued to patrol the school grounds. As he walked, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Tomorrow is February 2nd. The dragon raised its head, and the spring flowers are about to bloom. He is about to rush to the entrance of the valley to fight the big cannibals again."

Speaking of this, he suddenly felt a little itchy in his throat and couldn't help but stop and cough.

But Yang Keshi thought he had finished speaking, and figured out the meaning of this sentence, and immediately said loudly: "Don't worry, the lords are ready to fight against the Great Cannibal and can fight at any time; it is not only the subordinates, but the army is ready, and they will definitely be able to defeat the Great Cannibal and recover the Shattered Ye City in one fell swoop!"

"Okay, it's great to have this kind of heroism." Li Gong praised first, but said, "But I don't want to ask if you are ready; any soldiers who have experienced street fighting are brave men, how can they be timid about fighting with the Dashi Army? There is no need to ask. What I want to ask is when do you think it's better to send troops?"

"Ah?" Yang Keshi didn't react for a moment and subconsciously agreed.

"You are all locals, either from Luzhou or from Suiye Town. You know more about the local weather than I do; you are all in the army. When do you think it's better to send troops?" Li Gong said again.

"This," Yang Keshi reacted this time, thought about it carefully and said, "If you say a good time, of course it will be around the end of February or March 15th."

"What's the difference between these two times?"

"Protector, although the second day of February is the dragon raising its head, Anxi is colder than the Central Plains. The ice and snow only begin to melt in early March, and will melt on the tenth or even on the twentyth of March. Sometimes the particularly cold snow will melt in April, but this year is not particularly cold, and it can be melted in March.

The first of these two days I talked about is: If I set off from Yuluzhou City at the end of February, I could reach the valley entrance almost on March 10th, just when the ice and snow melted. The big cannibals are all outsiders, and they would not be familiar with the local weather and would not know the time when the ice and snow melted, so I could catch them off guard.

The second day was when the river surface had almost completely melted and the ship could be opened. If the ship was opened, food, grass and weapons could be transported by ship, the soldiers would save a lot of effort and march faster."

"So that's it." Li Gong said thoughtfully after hearing his words.
