Chapter 116: Walking in the Circle
Di Lang uses a sword, taking the way of the fast sword in the short weapon, if he encounters an ordinary martial artist, it is easy to deal with, but the martial arts realm like Liang Jin is not inferior to him, but he has the heavy lance in the long weapon that can suppress him, which plays a certain degree of weapon suppression, if it is someone else, it will definitely not be able to fight to this kind of scene.
"Damn!" Di Lang scolded secretly, because of Liang Jin's terrifying hegemony, he couldn't use the advantage of the fast sword at all, and he wanted to use the martial arts in the exercises to save the situation, but seeing the tragic situation of the thirty-six C cavalry, he expected to continue to fight, and he would inevitably be annihilated by the whole army, if there were other martial arts masters who had their hands freed, he would no longer have the ability to retreat.
"Thirty-six C, retreat with me. ”
Di Lang's shout, the remaining cavalry seemed to be waiting for this order early, as the order fell, a group of cavalry fled to the other side, Di Lang was also mixed in the cavalry, with the help of the cavalry's terrifying defense to retreat outside the camp, Luo Hu, Jiang Ming and thousands of armor soldiers pursued behind, and the heavy cavalry outside the camp also besieged it, and this battle of disparity in numbers gradually came to an end.
A few hours later, the sky was getting brighter, and the Wohuashan military camp, which had not slept all night, was in shambles, although they finally succeeded in expelling the attackers, but the huge losses suffered by the military camp still alarmed Liang Jin and several people.
The chief bookkeeper in charge of the statistical battlefield reported before the case: "The attack of the enemy's camp was sudden, our army was beaten to pieces without any defense, 240 soldiers were killed, 18 longbowmen were killed, 55 shield soldiers were killed, followed by the guards and guards of the camps, a total of 232 people died, and most of the other wounded were trampled by war horses in a panic, as for General Liu Guan, who had served as a deputy general in the camp of the Sixth Commander, also died in this battle. In addition, six tents were damaged, more than 30 weapons were damaged, and other losses were not to be worried. Our army killed a total of thirteen enemies, nine prisoners, and eighteen horses, but found nothing. ”
Liang Jin and the generals were silent after hearing this, knowing that there were only thirty-seven enemy soldiers who came to attack the camp, and in the face of the armored soldiers of the entire barracks, they were able to kill the enemy dozens of times more than their own number, and when they felt sorry and prayed for the dead soldiers, they could not help but have an inexplicable fear of the enemy's strength.
At this time, Liang Jin showed his amazing appeal and cohesion for the army, after the investigation and comfort after the whole army, the military camp regained its former spirit, but because of Liu Guan's death and Qiao Ren's serious injury, the generals who could lead the troops were still confused.
Liang Jin sternly reprimanded: "As a general in the army, when the army's morale is turbulent, he actually shows a low-minded style, which can not guide the soldiers to regain their fighting spirit, but also seriously affects the stability of the army's morale, what use do you want?"
Luo Fengzhi, Chao Long, Feng Qing, Yue Zhiyan, Du Heng and Qi knelt on the ground, among which Yue Zhiyan said: "Second commander, you also saw the cavalry at night, all of them are six-stage warriors, most of the six-stage warriors in each battalion of our army are holding positions such as captains and captains, and they have never planned to use these people to form a team of cavalry." But Pang Lu dared, their forces were much stronger than ours, if we didn't make a way to deal with it earlier, we were afraid that the next time the enemy attacked the camp again, we were afraid that we would have greater casualties. ”
Liang Jin was furious, but before he could break out, Luo Hu on the side had already thrown his sword over and brushed it along Yue Zhiyan's ear, and Yue Zhiyan immediately kowtowed to the ground to show his guilt. Luo Hu said: "You are my deputy general, but do you know that this military camp is under the jurisdiction of the second commander." You were in charge of the defense of the northeastern battalions during the previous enemy attack, but you were negligent in your duty and let the cavalry break in for half an hour before you came to report it, and now you openly refute the second commander in the battalion, can you bear your guilt?"
Yue Zhiyan was silent, and Luo Hu said again: "You are more than Chinese New Year's Eve years old now, and you are still my brother in age, but the second commander is the leader in this battalion, you joined my subordinates before, do you remember what you said, you must obey the military order and not be evil." I already know the old grudge between you and Jiang Ming, that kind of thing is that you are unjust, Jiang Ming has done good deeds for you, but you want to make trouble for him, if he hadn't told me to leave you, I am afraid that I would have driven you away long ago. ”
After hearing this, Yue Zhiyan bowed his head and said, "The last general is guilty, and I implore the commander to punish him." ”
Luo Hu said: "Then wait for this matter to be over, and twenty thorn canes in public." ”
Liang Jin said: "Then I will arrange the follow-up battalion defense, I decided to divide the entire military camp into six pieces, respectively with the main camp tent, the four commanders' camp tents, the six commanders' camp tents, and Jiang Ming, Mr. Mu Ya's camp tents as the center of the left and right, the layout is like the battalion defense of each sub-battalion, and the heavy cavalry under my command is divided into six sub-battalion roads, which makes it more convenient to relieve the front and rear. The other armoured soldiers were directly drawn from the four commanders and the six commanders, but they respectively arranged twice as many thistles and barricades outside the general camp, cancelled the general patrol, and transferred the grassroots captains and officers to serve as the sub-battalion guards. In addition, the necessary walking roads were demarcated, and no one was allowed to trespass into non-prescribed roads and areas, and 1,000 archers of the 8th Battalion were assigned to Mr. Mu Ya's arrangement. ”
When Jiang Ming heard about this great change in the pattern of the barracks, he was puzzled and said: "Dividing the large barracks into small barracks doesn't mean dividing the main force into several parts, and doesn't this reduce the intensity of the barracks at the overall level? In addition, the abolition of the generals' barracks defense will cause a great degree of panic to the grassroots garrison, and I think many measures are quite inappropriate." ”
Liang Jin waved his hand to retreat the others, and only the four of them were left in the camp tent, Liang Jin smiled: "Jiang Ming, in fact, my method is not in camp defense
, but on the surface to weaken the camp defense, the designed plan to invite the king into the urn. ”
Jiang Ming was stunned for a moment, Luo Hu was also a little puzzled, but Mu Ya on the side rubbed his chin and said: "The second commander's understanding of the military camp garrison is very perfect, and he has extraordinary ability in the fortification, the second commander should have such a measure in his heart since he learned that this cavalry is from the Jinshui Sect!"
Liang Jin said with a smile: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from Mr., Wolong's talent, it's true." In that case, you can explain it to the two of them. ”
Mu Ya approached Luo Hu and Jiang Ming, and said, "Since the Jinshui Sect has chosen to help the Pang Lu military camp, it means that if we exterminate Pang Lu and the others as soon as possible, we will face most of the Jinshui Sect's troops, and they may have an old relationship with Pang Lu, or they may have an appointment with Pang Lu, causing the Jin Shui Sect to send a very potential warrior like Thirty-six C." Therefore, in the face of the attack of the Golden Water Sect, we should not adopt the inherent method, but should use some special means. ”
"For example, the second commander's sub-battalion measure is aimed at this cavalry, and the cavalry broke in tonight, in fact, to a certain extent, if our camp is not so wide, it will not be unable to respond to the end of the barracks, let alone that the cavalry has been destroyed in our barracks for a long time. The best advantage of the battalion is that it reduces the size of the battalion, and the deployment of troops on the main road is the most convenient way to respond. Introducing the heavy cavalry under the second commander into the large battalion and outside the small battalion is another ingenious method, which can not only make the heavy cavalry who are in great need of geographical superiority give full play to their advantages, but also make several heavy cavalry starting points between the sub-battalions. ”
"There is also a measure to set up a road for the battalion soldiers to walk, which is aimed at the cavalry wearing armor, since ordinary swords and guns cannot be injured, the most effective way to restrain their actions is through geographical factors, such as traps and ground thorns, and in each forbidden area, and then set up a certain number of archers, as long as such cavalry dares to come, they will definitely not be able to escape. ”
Liang Jin said: "What Mr. Mu Ya said is very right, in addition, I plan to send Luohu to the Pang Lu military camp to make trouble the next day, it is not a gentleman's way to come and not go, and the Pang Lu military camp defense map that Lin Han got from Liu Qidun should also come in handy." As long as they are provoked, I believe that there will still be cavalrymen who think that they are not injured by armor and swords, and the enemy generals who lead them will also throw themselves into the net. ”
Luo Hu said: "This strategy is excellent, but the participation of this Jinshui Sect has caused us to have to retreat a little, and the outcome of the war is still unpredictable, when will we be able to repel tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the people of Huashan will have a peaceful and peaceful day!"
Liang Jin pondered for a moment and said: "Forced by the war, there is no way to do it, the climatic conditions in the area of Wohua Mountain are much better than those in Jiaozhi City, if we can defeat the Qin soldiers as soon as possible, we should go back as soon as possible, and the marriage between you and Miss Die should also be decided, and then we will give you a beautiful marriage." ”
Luo Hu remembered what Lin Han had said to him, which was no different from what Liang Jin meant, and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and said, "Okay, as long as this war is pacified, we can also retreat." The lord of the mountain once promised us that we would be free, and we could leave when we didn't want to do it. Thanks to the mountain owner who has been able to afford it in recent years, he has given us the opportunity to show our strengths, and we can have some passionate thoughts about retiring after that. ”
Liang Jin laughed without scruples: "You have already explained the major events in your life, a few of us are still alone, you have lived with Butterfly Girl, we can't live a lifetime with a few big men, Butterfly is very popular in the circle of residents in the mountains, we have to ask her to find a wife for us to live with, otherwise we will be single forever." ”
When Jiang Ming heard this, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he said: "The second commander of Wohua Mountain, how can he still worry about marriage? Men have fame and ability, so naturally there will be many women who can look up to them, in my opinion, you are stimulated by Luohu, right?"
Liang Jin was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Not only Luohu, but also you, of course, your confidante is extraordinary, I don't know how many people secretly envy you in private." I almost forgot to tell you, Miss Shen went straight to the Battle Hall, and asked the mountain lord in public to set up a communication line, called the Return Road Sentinel, and I think I miss you very much. There are not many women like this in the world, Jiang Ming, don't ignore the lover just because you want to fight with us on the battlefield!"
Jiang Ming's expression froze, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Shen Yiwu for almost a month, maybe she was bored in Wohua Mountain, but he had forgotten this deep feeling because of the war, and he began to understand that maybe she owed him for his dedication and protection in the past, but since the day he left, it has changed into his expression and loneliness that he owes her.
He suddenly became extremely sad about this, and his heart was suddenly numb, and the beautiful figure of the cold, helpless, stubborn and sad appeared in his mind, and he could not suppress all his thoughts and his soul.
Liang Jin was still laughing in his ears: "I'm not Hanzi's little white face, there are a lot of little girls in the people in Wohua Mountain who like him, and a man with a white face and a brain is naturally the first choice for young girls, as for me, I am a rough man, and my muscles can compare to him." ”
Luo Hu also said: "What you said is right, that guy is too good at messing with flowers, last time we went to the Liuyan Fang in Jiaozhi City to carry out a mission, that strange witch Huanziyu also took a fancy to him at first sight, although the situation at that time was not as leisurely and leisurely, but Jiang Ming and I."
's heart is extremely unhappy. ”
Liang Jin said: "And Mengzi, that guy is the most profligate among us, the woman around him has never been broken, he shouldn't have this kind of mind like us, the innate advantage is the most lethal, and he wants to be born again." I have already explained the situation to the mountain master, and when Mengzi has dealt with the affairs of his subordinates, he should come to help, and I will ask him for advice when the time comes. ”
Jiang Ming was silent for a long time, raised his head again, pretended to be his usual color, and smiled indifferently: "Since this is the case, this military camp will be lively in the future." Let's take advantage of these few days to get Chu Hong back as soon as possible, and then I will definitely have a good drink with you, the kind that doesn't get drunk and doesn't return. ”
Luo Hu said: "That's nature, Hanzi said that we are all brothers, brothers who are similar and have a deep love for the sea." In the past, I heard Hanzi say that you have a very good amount of wine, but I haven't drunk with you for more than ten days in the mountains, and when the eldest son returns, and when Mengzi comes, I will definitely drink twenty white with you. ”
Jiang Ming smiled, but no one knew the loss and sadness in his heart.
Mu Ya was just laughing on the side, he knew that Jiang Ming had begun to truly integrate into this circle, but it was impossible for him to fit in. All his emotions were not confused, he was just worried about the road ahead.
He slowly walked out of the tent, and no one noticed.
That night, Jiang Ming took the Chen brothers and sisters and a hundred cavalry to the vicinity of Xiaran Town and joined Lin Han.
Originally, the original plan was to let Luohu go, but considering that attacking the camp was much more difficult and dangerous than finding someone, Jiang Ming's injuries had not completely improved, and he was afraid that he would lose the mission, and it could be regarded as Jiang Ming's self-recommendation, so Liang Jin made this decision.
"Second brother, it doesn't matter what your injuries are, right?" Chen Xinxue rode the horse behind Jiang Ming, she rarely talked to Jiang Ming these times, even in the ** days when Jiang Ming was in bed to recuperate, she only served Jiang Ming tea and water a few times comfortably, and the rest of the time was taken care of by the sergeant in the battalion, her relationship with Jiang Ming now only exists as a brother and sister, and there is no doubt that this relationship is quite comfortable for both of them.
Jiang Ming said: "With such a serious injury, how can it be so easy to recover? The wound in the chest has not healed well, if there is a violent movement, it may break again, and the martial arts strength I can display now is only a few percent of the original." Dr. Zhou also asked me to bring some herbs that I took directly, so as not to lose my vitality in my chest due to long-term horseback riding, but for this trip, I had no problem in this state. ”
Chen Yiche said: "Brother Jiang must take care of his body, in the past, because Brother Jiang was on the front line of the battlefield, we almost didn't even have a chance to speak, although many people in this military camp gave us some face, but the strength and wisdom of my sister and I are difficult to get into the hall of elegance, so we can only greet Brother Jiang at this time." ”
Jiang Ming disagreed, and smiled indifferently: "We are all new to the army, and our friendship is deeper, and we have been righteous to the sky, Jiang Ming is no longer an orphan since then, he has a brother in front of him, and a sister in the back, this kind of friendship is not something that can be worn off by a few military affairs and a few meritorious deeds." What's more, Liang Jin has already promised me that you are my deputy general, and this is something you can't change. ”
Chen Yiche said with a smile: "Brother Jiang is really good-tongued, but what he said made me feel ashamed, if it weren't for the strength limitations, I would really follow the quasi-commander general to the soup." ”
Jiang Ming also laughed loudly, his mood was much happier, and he asked: "Having said that, I inadvertently observed that Brother Chen's way of practicing martial arts is quite extraordinary, and I heard Mu Ya say that you have not been practicing martial arts for a long time, but you can reach the level of the fifth stage in a very short period of time, it is estimated that the martial arts you have practiced are quite profound, right?"
Chen Yiche and Chen Xinxue were stunned, the former concealed his expression as usual, and immediately smiled: "Jiang Ming guessed very right, my sister and I can have the power of this kind of self-protection, all of which depends on the profundity of the cultivation method, but it is more than one grade worse than Brother Jiang, and I have not crossed the door of the fifth stage in my hard practice on weekdays, and this idle talk is not enough to mention in front of Brother Jiang." ”
Jiang Ming didn't feel anything unusual, he now knew a lot of experience and knowledge, and he no longer despised the eclipse character technique as before, the fifth-grade eclipse characters and ghost characters of the exercise method were already top-notch, and he was able to get the seven volumes of Yun frames that recorded the peerless exercises, which was a unique luck. He guessed that the exercises practiced by the Chen brothers and sisters were no higher than Yue Zi, this level was very rare in the entire Zhu Tianye, but it was nothing to Jiang Ming.
The three of them chatted while walking, casually saying some ordinary fun and anecdotes about the military camp, but they walked easily along the way, because there was no particularly urgent situation on Lin Han's side, and Jiang Ming was not in a hurry to march, after all, it was only half a day's journey, rather than meeting Lin Han and staring at each other, it was better to find out the situation while walking.
Just when Jiang Ming and his party were about to enter the territory of crossing the plain and entering the territory of the small city of Xiazhi, a gust of wind and sand blew rapidly, and the sky was dark in an instant, Jiang Ming keenly sensed a trace of danger, and hurriedly ordered the cavalry to dismount and avoid the wind and sand.
A cavalryman behind him walked up to Jiang Ming and said: "General Jiang Ming, this wind and sand came quickly, the villain has been stationed in the Jiaozhi Mountains for three or four years, and he has never seen such a strange wind and sand, and I hope that the general will be cautious and cautious in his march." ”
Jiang Ming nodded in kindness.
At this moment, Jiang Ming suddenly saw two figures walking out of the wind and sand, Jiang Ming looked startled, Fang Yuan's halberd was already in his hand, but he heard a woman's voice in the wind and sand: "My master invited Jiang Ming Gongzi to see him in Xia Dye City on July 7, I hope Gongzi will remember it." ”
