Longyan Mountain was once the birthplace of Gentian Camp.
However, after many years, Longyan Mountain fell into disrepair, the houses collapsed, and the gathered civilians dispersed.
The entire mountain became an abandoned mountain, but in recent years However, Yue was occupied by a group of bandits and started business without capital again.
However, this business without capital did not last long and was quickly targeted by the Congressional Army.
Late at night, densely packed congressional troops appeared at the foot of Longyan Mountain, with flags fluttering and united.
However, the uniforms of the soldiers were not neat, and the treasury was empty.
There was simply not enough cloth and armor to equip the Congressional Army, which was known as half a million people.
Most of the soldiers still wore the same clothes they had when they came from various provinces.
Even many people's clothing is no different from that of hunters and farmers, and their equipment is not sophisticated.
Rusty iron swords, cracked halberds, etc. can be seen everywhere.
The Congressional Army needs to be re-equipped.
This is an urgent matter, and it is also the top priority of Zhuang Yan, the leader of the Congressional Army.
Under the starlight, Zhuang Yan was dressed in military uniform, looking at the lights on the top of the mountain from a distance, and said: "How many people are there in this group of bandits?"
Deputy Commander Su Changying said: "There are more than five hundred people in total."
"Hmph, more than 500 people actually want nearly 100,000 of us to surround Longyan Mountain.
This is really giving them too much face."
Zhuang Yan sneered: "It is said that Longyan Mountain is the place where Longdan Camp made its fortune.
Wait until we kill them all.
These five hundred bandits will burn Longyan Mountain with me as a small warning to Lin Muyu. " Su Changying smiled faintly: "Commander, my subordinates think that as long as we accomplish what we want to do, there is no need to burn down Longyan Mountain.
After all, people like Wei Qiu and Situ Sen cannot be offended.
What if they feel better one day?
If we want to return to Longyan Mountain, it wouldn’t be a good idea if we burn down their old nest.”
"snort" Zhuang Yan said calmly: "Stop talking so much nonsense, attack the mountain immediately.
We must capture Longyan Mountain before dawn.
In addition, are our arms ready?"
"We have arrived, just at the foot of the mountain.
The merchants left the goods and left.
Our golden tickets have been given to them.
The arms are currently under the control of Deputy Commander Liu Xiyu."
"Great, please specify the quantity."
"Yes."
Su Changying nodded: "There are a total of five heavy magic crystal cannons and fifteen light magic crystal cannons.
In addition, there are one hundred magic crystal crossbows, one hundred and twenty heavy magic crystal shells and twenty-eighty magic crystal cannons."
All the light magic crystal shells have been counted."
Zhuang Yan squinted his eyes and laughed loudly and said: "That's great.
As soon as the day breaks, we can reveal these magic crystal cannons and magic crystal crossbows, saying that they were plucked out from the bandits' lair in Longyan Mountain.
Lin Muyu won't let them go."
The Ordnance Department forged heavy artillery for us.
Let me see what else he can do this time.
He will not interfere with the trophies handed over by our Congressional Army."
Su Changying chuckled and said, "Yes, I understand."
"Remember, follow the same pattern and continue to spend a lot of money to buy equipment from those unscrupulous businessmen.
Since the empire is not willing to equip the Congress Army, then we will equip it ourselves.
When the day when the Congress Army becomes strong, I want to see how Marshal Lin Muyu can still do it.
How to check and balance us.”

"Well, the commander is wise, hahahaha" Before dawn, the Congressional Army confiscated a total of twenty magic crystal cannons, played a triumphant song, and beat gongs and drums all the way back to Lanyan City.
Until the dusk of the next day, when they finally returned to Lanyan City pushing the heavy magic crystal cannon, almost all the congressional soldiers had happy faces, even though they were wearing thin clothes and were shivering from the cold.
In late autumn, the grass is flying in the wilderness, the cool breeze is blowing, and the wheels of the magic crystal cannon have dug deep ravines on the official road, which makes the speed of the convoy even slower.
If you want to see Lanyan City in front, But it was probably impossible to enter the city before dark.
According to Zhuang Yan's military order, five of the twenty magic crystal cannons were to be transported into the city and set up in the Capitol Building as defensive equipment.
“Tuk tuk tuk” In the distance, the sound of horse hoofbeats came, and a very neat row of soldiers came from the direction of the Imperial City, carrying the flag of the Gentian Battalion.
The person at the front was the deputy commander Wei Qiu, who also served as the Minister of the Ministry of War.
He was a very popular figure in the Imperial City, Wei Chou.
Qiu Tong's nearly 3,000 cavalrymen galloped over and stopped about a hundred meters away from the Congressional army.
"It's Wei Chou."
Su Changying frowned.
Zhuang Yan held the whip and rode forward, saying: "It turns out to be Master Wei Qiu.
I don't know what the purpose of Master Wei Qiu is to mobilize an army and lead so many people here."
Wei Qiu smiled slightly and said politely: "Commander Zhuang Yan, I received a report at the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, saying that the National Congress Army illegally obtained twenty magic crystal cannons and a hundred magic crystal crossbows.
I don't know if it is true."
As he said that, he looked at the dark barrel behind Zhuang Yan and said with a smile: "It seems to be true."
Zhuang Yan said: "Master Wei Qiu doesn't know that the Congress Army went to Longyan Mountain to encircle and suppress the strong men under the orders of Her Royal Highness the Empress.
These magic crystal cannons were collected from the mountain.
In order to destroy the strong men, the Congress Army injured hundreds of brothers.
I think it is reasonable for these magic crystal cannons to be used as armaments of the Congress Army."
Wei Qiu smiled leisurely and said: "If it were weapons, armor, etc., I could turn a blind eye.
The trophies won by the Congress Army belong to the Congress Army.
However, the Ministry of War has expressly stipulated that magic crystal cannons and Magic crystal crossbows are hot weapons and must be managed uniformly.
All thermal weapons that appear in the army are under the control and distribution of the Ministry of War.
I think you have also seen Lin Shuai’s order.
There is a mixture of dragons and snakes in the Congress Army.
No thermal weapons will be distributed for the time being.
Therefore, these magic crystal cannons are still expected from Mr.
Zhuang Yan.
Turn it over to the treasury, which is also what Her Majesty the Empress meant."
"What does Her Majesty the Empress mean?"
Zhuang Yan was stunned.
Wei Qiu raised his hand, holding a golden order, and said with a smile: "There are only three of the Empress's golden orders in total.
I think you must have seen them before.
Seeing the gold order is like seeing your highness."
Zhuang Yan, Su Changying and others knelt down on one knee.
Wei Qiu smiled faintly: "Come here, receive the magic crystal cannon and magic crystal crossbow from the brothers of the Congress Army."
"Defending Chou" Zhuang Yan roared angrily, raised his head and said: "Don't bully others too much.
The Congress Army is the army of the Congress.
How dare you treat people so lightly and protect the magic crystal cannon.
Whoever dares to touch the magic crystal cannon will make him regret it in this world."
Take a walk” "Yeah" Wei Qiu's eyes were cold and he said: "Lingdan Camp, prepare to fight."
The three thousand cavalry behind them dispersed one after another, forming a circular combat array.
Each soldier raised a magic crystal crossbow.
A total of three thousand magic crystal crossbows were pointed straight at the people of the Congress Army.

This was not A mere twenty magic crystal cannons can be compared, not to mention that the two sides are too close to each other, and the magic crystal cannons are useless.
Wei Qiu is a smart man, and he is naturally confident in approaching the Congress Army from the beginning.
"Commander Zhuang Yan, why don't I settle the account for you?"
Wei Qiu said with a smile: "The explosion radius of the magic crystal crossbow is about ten meters.
If three thousand magic crystal crossbows are fired at close range, the five thousand congressional troops behind you will evaporate in an instant.
You will not even have the chance to pull the string of the magic crystal cannon." , once Commander Zhuang Yan is shot by the magic crystal crossbow Kill, I will immediately go to the Zetian Palace to tell Her Highness the Empress that the National Congress Army did not obey the Jin Order and tried to kill me.
Zhuang Yan’s death was his own fault.
No one else is to blame.
Do you think your death has any value?
Besides, I He also has a secret weapon."
As he spoke, Wei Qiu blew a whistle, and suddenly there was a burst of dragon roars in the sky, and six huge black shadows appeared in the sky.
They were dragon knights headed by Situ Sen and Situ Xue.
They killed several people in the battle in Cangnan Province.
The ten dragon knights also captured some giant dragons, and Gentian Camp already had six dragon knights.
Wei Qiu had a smile on his lips: "Long Yu Douxuan can withstand magic crystal attacks.
As long as I give the order, when three thousand magic crystal crossbows shoot you, you will not be able to cause the slightest harm to the Long Dan Camp.
I advise you not to have your own way.
Now, this is a mantis trying to trick a chariot, do you understand?"
Zhuang Yan was so angry that he was shaking all over, but Wei Qiu was right.
Under the absolute power, the Congress Army was vulnerable.
Not to mention that the Gendan Battalion had experienced hundreds of battles, most of the soldiers of the Congress Army had no ability at all.
Having experienced war, ten people may not be able to defeat one Gentian Battalion soldier.
This is just a fact.
Zhuang Yan was a little depressed and waved his hands: "That's all, let the Minister of War take away these magic crystal cannons."
As he said that, Zhuang Yan glanced at Wei Qiu and said, "It's just that, Lord Wei Qiu, the Congress Army has fought successfully and captured so many magic crystal cannons and magic crystal crossbows.
Shouldn't the Ministry of War's arsenal issue some more to the Congress Army?"
Arms?
Look at the group of soldiers behind me.
They are regular imperial troops but they don’t even have a set of uniforms.”
Wei Qiu's eyes turned red: "Well, I know the suffering of brothers, so each magic crystal cannon can be converted into one hundred military uniforms.
After returning to Lanyan City, the arsenal will allocate two thousand military uniforms, plus two thousand long handles.
Sword to the Congressional Army.”
Zhuang Yan's face turned green: "Master Wei Qiu, with such a small amount of armaments, you are not sending beggars away, are you?"
Wei Qiu said earnestly: "The empire has been through war for a long time, and the treasury has long been exhausted.
The wealth accumulated by His Majesty King Guangming for so many years has been almost wiped out by us unscrupulous descendants in ten years.
The same goes for these two thousand sets of military uniforms."
It was not easy to get, and Her Highness the Empress even took down the curtains of the Zetian Palace and dyed them to make military uniforms.
Her Highness the Empress is so diligent and thrifty, shouldn't Lord Zhuang Yan, as the commander of the National Assembly Army, set an example by setting an example?"
In Zhuang Yan's heart, ten thousand grass and mud horses rushed past, and Wei Qiu was speechless.
Night, Parliament House.
"Bang"
Zhuang Yan landed a heavy palm on the table, causing the fruits to fly everywhere.
He said with an angry look on his face: "Damn it, it's really too abominable.
The Ministry of War bullies people too much.
They don't regard our Congress Army as human beings at all.

Wei Qiu, Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing and others are colluding with each other, which makes me mad.
It really makes me mad.
Sir, we can't sit back and wait for death like this."
Qin Wan sat there leisurely, with Qin Yan standing behind him like a statue of the God of War.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, saying: "Commander Zhuang Yan, please be patient.
You said that Lin, Feng, Wei and others are working together.
Isn't that right?
To make Qin Yindian The next step will be taken into account.
Sir, please remember that you are also an important member of the Congress.
The original intention of establishing the Congress is to better the empire.
If you dare to blaspheme the empress, then I will start to doubt the original intention of establishing the Congress. " Zhuang Yan's face turned livid: "Commander, I made a mistake.
Please forgive me."
"It's okay, it's okay, but it's true that the Ministry of War is bullying people too much and doesn't take the National Assembly Army seriously at all."
"Well, yeah" Su Changying on the side frowned and said: "The biggest problem of the Congress Army now is military rations.
The Ministry of War only gives us rations for 200,000 soldiers every day.
Most of our people don't have enough to eat, let alone training, and it's even bigger."
The problem is clothing.
Lanyan City is located in Lingbei Province.
Winter is coming quickly and it may snow within a month.
But most of our soldiers only wear autumn clothes.
If there are not 500,000 sets of winter clothes, how can we Can survive this winter” Zhuang Yan clenched his fists and said: "Lin Muyu, Wei Chou, and Feng Jixing joined forces with the Ministry of War and the Military Department to cut off our food and armaments.
All they want is to make the Congressional Army retreat in the face of difficulties and let us leave the Imperial Capital on our own."
Zhou Heng sneered: "They have a good idea.
Since we are here, we will not leave so easily.
Since we don't have military uniforms, we will find a way ourselves and raise and transport them from our fiefdoms."
"I'm afraid it's too late."
Qin Huan frowned and said, "That will freeze a lot of people to death.
They are all my subjects of Great Qin."
Qin Yan: "":
