The hot summer has finally gone away, and the rainless heat in Zhongjing City has finally dissipated when the leaves fall. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info has brought a long-lost coolness to the people living in the northern part of Dahan.
On this day, a very imposing convoy of about 500 Imperial Forest Army guards assembled in the huge square outside the imperial city, and after waiting for the two Confucian robes to board the carriage, they left the city in a majestic manner and headed towards the southwest of Zhongjing City.
The big man in the early morning was shrouded in a faint shimmer.
The sound of horses' hooves, Tsing Yi vibrates.
In the middle of autumn, the north of the wasteland is cold first, and the grass is early yellow. The mighty team has reached the most desolate area of Beichong in the Han Dynasty.
Although this place is barren and far away from Canghai City, it borders Damang. Although there was no fighting in the area of Canghai City, it was often harassed by the reckless cavalry from time to time.
The northern border of the Han Dynasty stretches for thousands of miles, guarded by tens of thousands of Lin family troops, but this is the weakest place. There were often small troops of cavalry, constantly harassing this already barren place.
However, although the Lin family's army is strong, it can only send patrol troops to patrol from time to time, but it cannot camp here. This land is also one of the biggest headaches for Lin Jinrong.
In a meadow deep in Beichong, the few trees and leaves on the meadow have long since fallen, and standing here, the eyes can easily penetrate the clear sky and fall farther away. Like the black smoke from the burning of something in the distant wasteland, and the wounded soldiers lying on the creaking carriage. The skirmishes between the Lin family army and the Da Mang cavalry have never stopped on this land.
Lin Ji sat on the meadow and looked to the northwest, rubbing the ring in his hand repeatedly in his hand that seemed to be what only women should carry, and his face was a little sad. In order to reduce the nostalgia for Canghai City, looking northwest at this time, it seems that he can see the distant Canghai City, which belongs to his hometown, and his heart can't help but give birth to some longing and warmth.
Those moaning soldiers were all Lin Jiajun, but Lin Ji saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart.
Not far away, five hundred Royal Guards dismounted to rest, but they did not pay any attention to where the pair of wounded soldiers were going.
There is a vague black line under the high sky in the northwest direction, which is inconspicuous when it looks at it. Lin Ji heard that the dean had passed the mountain range called Lingqiu, which was the Buddha country. The place where the lecture was held was at the foot of the Ancestral Buddha Mountain, which is located in the center of the Buddha country.
A young officer crept beside Lin Ji, and the officer seemed to be in awe of this young man who was the son of the Marquis of Wuhou and a disciple of the Heavenly Palace. The light armor on his body was polished, looking at the clear wasteland and the wounded soldiers on the carriage, Jian Mei frowned slightly and said in annoyance: "I really don't know what Da Mang is thinking over there, there is no food in such a desolate place, what is the point of appearing here." ”
Lin Ji looked at him and smiled: "If the two of us can know why, then it's still reckless." ”
The young officer scratched his head embarrassedly.
At this moment, dozens of the most elite Lin Jiajun light cavalry appeared in front of the meadow side, and the capable lieutenant who led the leader looked at Lin Ji and the young officer above the meadow with an anxious face, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.
Lin Ji smiled slightly, and then waved his hand at the school manager.
Then the lieutenant shouted: "Sir, the reckless cavalry here is often harassed, if you can also ask you and a few nobles sitting in the car to go west quickly, so as not to be innocently hurt." ”
There were no nobles in the carriage, if it was barely a nobleman, there was only one person in the Ministry of Rites, Shangshu Wei Xiong, and the old and disrespectful dean had already been out of the capital for a long time before he was assigned to the whip with the convoy, I don't know where he went, and he only left a sentence of Buddha and then disappeared.
Lin Ji nodded and said, "Thank you." He slapped his ass a few times and walked towards the Imperial Guards Brigade.
Lin Ji conveyed the original words of the military captain of the Lin family to Wei Xiong, the head of the delegation who participated in the lecture conference on behalf of the empire, but Wei Xiong did not care at all and ordered the convoy to camp in the same place.
The Lin family army team, which numbered about 300 people, camped on the other side of the grassy knoll, although the two camps were still some distance away from each other, but they could easily find each other's location from the light of the bonfire.
The well-trained Lin Jiajun buried the pot at dusk to cook and extinguished the bonfire at night, and the Lin Jiajun team of 300 people was not the master of this wasteland, so they firmly abided by the first rule of camping in the wild.
However, the pampered soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army in the city of Central China lit a bonfire at night.
Lin Ji glanced helplessly at the generals of the Imperial Forest Army led by Wei Xiong, but he was also helpless, after all, he was just rubbing other people's cars.
Late at night! Lin Ji, who was not asleep in the carriage, was awakened by a faint rumbling sound, and in a panic tore open the curtain of the carriage, and several jumps rushed away a few grassy hills, hiding behind a thick number, and looked in the direction where the sound came. Not far on the surface, through the faint moonlight, a row of faint black shadows was seen, gradually increasing at a speeding speed, and then stopped by the grassy hill not far in front of Lin Ji.
The commander of the Imperial Guards apparently also heard the sound of horses' hooves, and in his panic remembered the fire that had been extinguished into a spark, and hurriedly ordered someone to push it out with sand, and the camp fell silent.
The reckless cavalry came in search of the firelight, but when they were about to approach the target, they lost their last direction, but they were greeted by a squad of only 300 Lin Jiajun in front of them.
The leader of the squad woke up all the soldiers in a tense atmosphere, and then pointed to the reckless cavalry that had stopped about five hundred paces away.
The black-pressed cavalry could not tell how many there were in the dark night, but judging by the leader of the squad from the sound of horses' hooves, there were no less than two thousand.
Obviously, the reckless cavalry also discovered this small group of Lin Jiajun.
"Woohoo......" The usual encirclement signal of the reckless cavalry sounded from the mouth of the man at the head, and the two thousand people instantly dispersed in the roar, forming a huge encirclement, encircling the team of only three hundred people, but opening up a large distance. There seems to be no immediate intention of attacking.
Two thousand against three hundred, there doesn't seem to be any accidents.
The sentinel cavalry sent by Da Mang snapped their fingers at the hillside after confirming that this small group of Lin family troops were all light horses, and finally the Da Mang cavalry was no longer silent.
The terrible sound of feathered arrows breaking through the air, like a sharp flute, instantly tore through the night sky above the camp.
Because of the distance, when the arrow flew outside the camp, it was already crooked and slow, and fell to the ground like a drunken man, without causing any damage, but Lin Jiajun, who has been dealing with reckless soldiers all year round, knew that the other party's arrow was intended to warn or show off, so his mood did not become relaxed.
Under the calm arrangement of the lieutenant, everyone found a relatively convex earthen bag, and leaned a hundred horses against each other to form a circle, forming an extremely simple defensive position.
It was too late to call for help, so I could only wait quietly for the danger to come.
The atmosphere in the camp became extremely oppressive and tense, and no one dared to speak at this time, except for the sound of heavy breathing.
The encirclement gradually narrowed in the sound of the hooves of the approaching cavalry, gradually revealing the true faces of more than a thousand horsemen. Vaguely you could see the majestic barbarians on horseback, wrapped in animal skin and cotton armor, holding the reins in one hand, screaming madly, as if they had seen a large number of prey.
The soldiers of the Lin family army were occasionally nervous between their silent eyebrows, but they did not panic, and the experience of fighting with the reckless cavalry for many years told them that this was not the moment of panic, in the captain's soft shout, the Lin family army, which was only about two hundred people, drew out the unique Canghai knife long handle beside him, and waited vigilantly for the later battle, they did not think about what the result of this battle would be, because they were always instilled with such an idea from the first day they joined the Lin family army, and dying on the battlefield is the highest honor of a soldier, so there was no rush in the camp at this time before the war, but a little more inexplicable sadness。 Even Lin Ji, who was still two dirt slopes away from them, felt this chilling morale and was about to rise to the sky.
