Chapter 117: A Great Victory
Since it was the first battle officially launched with the imperial court, the coach Bu Qin had to go out in person to start the first battle and boost morale.
The Bujia army also has a special charge for naval warfare, but there are not many warships, plus the previous warships, there are only more than 100, each boat can accommodate 2,000 soldiers, but this time the imperial court sent 100,000 sea divisions to gather Huaihai, vowing to suppress the arrogance of the Bujia army.
Bu Qin felt that the naval lineup was the weakness of their infantry army, if more than 100 warships were sent out to face the enemy head-on, not only did they have no chance of winning, but it was also easy to annihilate the whole army, so they gathered 20 pathfinder teams before the battle, and infiltrated the enemy range from all directions, with 200 people per team, what they wanted to do was not to be a pioneer, not a surprise attack, they only needed to hide their tracks and report back the enemy's marching status one by one.
Bu Qin fully understood the situation of the enemy, after all, it is difficult to hide a navy of 100,000 people in the Huai Sea, so it is relatively easy to find out the whereabouts, since it is not possible to fight the enemy head-on, then disperse the military strength, after some careful consideration, Bu Qin decided to make a dangerous move and win by surprise.
He told Xi Yunzhi the plan, he only planned to dispatch sixty warships this time, and it was not a joint dispatch, divided into ten days, six ships a day, learning from the combat experience of pirates, to disturb more with less, to fight slowly, their six ships can retreat at any time, as long as they see the direction of the other party's ships, avoid the enemy's artillery range, and then advance and attack, retreat and defend, lead the enemy's nose and go, so that they can't fight, can't catch, scratch their ears and cheeks and fight hard, they have successfully dispersed the route and turned back to the dock of Iron Blood City, Then, on the second day, as planned, a temporary decision was made, and the time of the attack was changed, so that the enemy troops were tense at all times, and did not dare to rest or stop. Then they took the opportunity to use the fishmen to find the enemy's ships carrying food and grass, and cut through the bottom of the boat, allowing water to enter the cabin, cutting off the other party's supply.
After a month or two of taking turns like this, it is estimated that the people on the ship will go crazy.
Bu Tan's plan is very detailed, Xi Yunzhi made a detailed list of materials according to his plan overnight, and the next morning, he rushed to the dock to arrange supplies, according to Bu Tan's ideas, she did not deliberately arrange a special grain and grass boat, but used the way of patrol boats to send water and food to the sea fleet, so that the enemy could not figure out their way, the patrol boat is small and brisk, about the same size as the average fishing boat, and it will not be delayed for too long, so it is not worried about exposing its whereabouts.
Every time the patrol boat went out, Xi Yunzhi would inspect the cargo at the dock in advance to make sure everything was right, and then approve them to go to sea.
The war was in full swing, and the fleet, under the command of Bu Tan and some seafaring powerhouses, received successes one after another, and almost no casualties were heard.
Xi Yunzhi also listens to information every day, knowing that everyone is safe and sound, so she is willing to rest assured to be busy with other things.
At the end of June, a vegetable field at the rear of the barracks also grew green vegetable seedlings, and the potato harvest was good, but after a few days' effort, it was piled up into a small hillside, Xi Yunzhi was very pleased to see it, so that the vegetable planting team could not stop, and quickly turned over the land again, and then continued to cultivate.
With Xi Yunzhi's management, the soldiers in the camp can also ensure that they can eat two meat and three vegetables every day, and the rice and steamed buns will be full. Everyone is saying that in the past, the standard of the national military food they ate was only four taels of rice, two steamed buns, a plate of vegetables and a bowl of soup, although it is not a world different from now, but there is also a difference, and the soldiers who know that the food is all handled by the marshal's wife are even more grateful to Xi Yunzhi.
Some people who knew her met her in the camp, and they would come up to greet her, and Xi Yunzhi also returned the salute one by one, and her humble and generous personality added a lot of points to her.
Since Xiao An had a quarrel with Zhao Ning last time, Bu Qin simply threw him to Vice General Zhao - Zhao Ning's father, teaching martial arts together, Vice General Zhao was not polite to Xiao An, not because he was the son of the boss, or because he was young and relaxed, the horse step that should squat, not for a moment, the punch that should be swung, don't want to leave if it is less, but after a few days of hard work, Xiao An has lost a lot of weight, and the round belly that used to be has been slightly withdrawn.
Every night Xi Yunzhi massaged his hands and feet, asking him if he wanted to give up if he worked so hard, but Xiao An shook his head stubbornly, and Xi Yunzhi no longer persuaded him, and tried to ensure that he ate better and slept better every day, and the rest was up to him.
In the middle of July, the navy led by Bu Tan won a great victory and returned triumphantly, sixty large ships broke through the water majestically, not one of them was broken, and more than 100 boats were dragged back at the rear.
Xi Yunzhi stood on the highest observation tower, helped Xiao An to stand on the railing, and kept waving to the people on the deck, and Xiao An shouted excitedly: "Dad, Dad!" ”
The soldiers were excited, and the shocking military trumpets spread far away from heaven and earth, and the shouts were inspiring.
Bu Qin walked down from the deck with a sassy body of wind and dust, more than a month of wandering on the sea, giving birth to slag, full of man's rough temperament, he stopped at the front, searched around, turned around, locked on the right front of the lighthouse, Xiao An jumped off the railing, the small body couldn't help pushing away the obstacles in front of him, ran down the lighthouse steps, and rushed to his father's arms.
Xi Yunzhi held her stomach, and the crowd automatically made way for her, allowing her to go to Bu Tan unimpeded, Bu Tan held Xiao An in her arms, looking at the delicate face that she hadn't seen for many days, God knows how much he wanted to hug her into his arms, reached out and touched her belly, and said:
"It's bigger."
Xi Yunzhi nodded with a smile, took the initiative to take his hand, and said gently:
"Go back, I've got a reception for you."
Bu Qin put away his heart that had been adrift on the sea for the past month, and the soulless soul finally returned to his own harbor.
Xi Yunzhi had already prepared hot water and waited for Bu Qin to come back and wash it for him.
Bu Qin soaked his body in the boiling hot water and let out a comfortable sigh: "Naval battles are definitely much harder than land battles, the sea breeze is biting, let alone hot baths, even hot tea may not be able to drink." ”
Xi Yunzhi smeared the razor with soap on the side, listened to her, didn't say anything but smiled quietly and listened, after smearing the blade, she bent her □ and carefully shaved Bu Tan's beard, the needles in the room could be heard, Bu Tan lay in the bathtub with his eyes closed, enjoying this rare comfort and happiness.
"That kid is lazy while I'm not there?"
After shaving his beard, Bu Tan couldn't help but pull Xi Yunzhi's hand to wipe his back and asked.
Xi Yunzhi smiled and shook his head: "No, I want him to be lazy, but he doesn't want to, and I can't help it." ”
Bu Qin pinched her lightly: "How can you tell him to be lazy?" ”
Xi Yunzhi scooped a scoop of water and poured it on Bu Tan's shoulder, and said: "I see that he works so hard every day, when he comes back, his legs and feet are hard, and the soles of his feet are worn out several pieces of skin, how can I, a mother, not feel distressed?" ”
"To practice martial arts well, basic skills are the most important, if you are lazy now, he will suffer in the future." Bu Qin put Xi Yunzhi's hand to his lips and kissed it lightly a few times.
Xi Yunzhi was afraid of itching and wanted to retract it, but he grabbed it even more firmly: "Okay, okay, I know." I didn't care about him, just his little temper was so strong that the eight cows couldn't pull it back. ”
Bu Qin listened to Xi Yunzhi complaining about his son's temper, but he didn't feel strange at all, and nodded: "Yes, follow me." ”
Xi Yunzhi laughed and knocked him on the shoulder twice: "I hate it, you know your temper yourself." ”
Bu Qin was so distracted by her that he wanted to pull her into the water, but when he saw her high bulging belly, he took a few deep breaths, and then he stopped thinking and changed the topic:
"This time it was a beautiful victory, not only with few casualties, but also brought back more than 100 ships and more than 50 prisoners of war. These people are handed over to you to use as you please, just take care of the food. ”
Xi Yunzhi was surprised when he heard this: "I only saw the warship, are there any prisoners of war?" If there are prisoners of war, how can there be only fifty? ”
Bu Qin said with a smile: "I'm afraid of increasing the burden on you, these are not ordinary prisoners of war I brought back, and it is of great use to keep them." ”
After washing his body, Bu Tan walked out of the water, and Xi Yunzhi wiped his body for him while asking, "What is the use of fifty prisoners of war?" ”
Bu Qin explained to her: "Ordinary prisoners of war are just ordinary soldiers, and when they fall, they will fall, and I will ask for hardship when I bring them back, and I will have to pay rations to stay, and I will have a bad reputation for killing, so I will bring fifty typical ones back, don't look at them are all prisoners of war, all of them are related to the royal family, either dukes and ministers, or royal relatives, Gai Ming'er talked to Xiao Luo to see how much money he was willing to pay to redeem people." ”
Xi Yunzhi was dumbfounded when he heard it: "Redeem? How does it sound like we're bandits? ”
Bu Qin shrugged: "All the teams that are out of the state are anti-thieves, not much better than bandits, in this case, what are we polite to him?" ”
Xi Yunzhi couldn't help laughing at what he said, but thinking about what he said, he was right, the husband and wife talked and laughed and went to the reception banquet that had already begun to be lively.
***
Bu Qin's complete victory, undoubtedly brought great morale boost to the Bujia army, these days walking around the barracks can be seen, the soldiers' faces are full of pride, no longer have the future of confusion distrust.
The captives brought back by Bu Qin were all arranged for Xi Yunzhi to be in the vegetable patch and pig barn, wearing shackles and handcuffs, facing the loess with their backs to the sky, and experiencing the taste of hard farming.
When Xi Yunzhi came out of the vegetable field, she saw several people wearing shackles being whipped by several soldiers, and those broken wailing voices reminded her of the miserable situation when she was in Yanzhou, Qi State, and stepped forward and asked:
"What's wrong with them? Won't you farm? ”
The whipped soldier knew her, and quickly stopped and came to salute, and one of the soldiers pointed not far behind them and said:
"Mrs. Hui, it was Vice General Zhang who asked us to teach these old men a good lesson."
Xi Yunzhi frowned: "Vice General Zhang? ”
She remembered that the general in charge of these captives was not surnamed Zhang, so she followed the soldier's direction and looked not far away, only to see a thin and tall general walking towards her, Xi Yunzhi recognized him, he was the deputy general of the first battalion of the forward, Daniel Zhang, two mustaches are his signature, a pair of mung bean-sized eyes always keep looking around, this kind of person is either uncertain, or has a ghost in his heart.
I saw Daniel Zhang walking in the direction of Xi Yunzhi, knowing her identity, neither courteous nor greeting, but directly said fiercely to those soldiers:
"What's going on? Keep fighting, kill me! ”
The soldiers looked at each other twice, and then turned their eyes to Xi Yunzhi, who waved his hand to them and said:
"You guys go back first, I'll deal with these people."
The soldiers put down the whips in their hands, and after holding their fists at Xi Yunzhi and Daniel Zhang and bending down a few times, they fled in a hurry.
Xi Yunzhi and Daniel Zhang faced each other, and Daniel Zhang looked down on her, clasped his hands on his chest and said:
"Hmph, Madame is so bold, these people are all captives, Madame is so partial, aren't you afraid that I will go to the boss to accuse you of a crime of being sentenced from inside and outside?"
Xi Yunzhi saw the disrespect in his eyes, but he only smiled: "Vice General Zhang is so angry, these people are already prisoners, if you want to beat them to death again, won't it ruin the reputation of the boss for not killing prisoners?" ”
was hit by Xi Yunzhi's words, Vice General Zhang's face changed, and he spat in front of Xi Yunzhi, and said, "A good mouth." ”
His eyes lingered on Xi Yunzhi for a moment, and Daniel Zhang stopped his eyes on her stomach, suddenly reached out and grabbed Xi Yunzhi's chin, and said:
"When you give birth to a child, Lao Tzu will come back to teach you what is called women's way."
Xi Yunzhi was shocked, slapped Daniel Zhang's hand away with a palm, took a few steps back, frowned and said angrily: "You are presumptuous!" ”
Ruyi quickly helped the frightened Xi Yunzhi, and Ruyue rushed to Daniel Zhang and pointed at him: "Good you Daniel Zhang, you dare to do something with the marshal's wife, aren't you afraid that we will tell the boss and let him kill you?" ”
Daniel Zhang held Ruyue in his arms, not afraid of her struggle, in broad daylight, he put his hands on Ruyue, and rubbed Ruyue's buttocks with his lower body and his body very obscenely, so frightened that Ruyue screamed, Ruyi hurriedly stepped forward and kicked Daniel Zhang, which forced Daniel Zhang to let go of his hand.
He licked his lips unsatisfactorily, and then lingered on Ruyi's eyes, and said:
"Everyone knows that the women in the barracks are all communal! What about the boss's wife, I'm not afraid to tell you that it is the current queen, and Lao Tzu has also played! ”
Daniel Zhang said while approaching Ruyi, who couldn't help retreating, and said unashamedly: "I am the brother who helps the boss fight the world, without the help of our brothers, will the boss fight the world alone?" As long as the world is in hand, what kind of woman will you want at that time? What kind of thing is Madame? ”
After speaking, as soon as the big hand stretched out, he grabbed Ruyi, and was about to play with it, but was stopped by Zhao Yi, who rushed to hear the news, and couldn't help but say, Zhao Yi grabbed Daniel Zhang's collar, pulled him away from Ruyi, and kicked him out.
Daniel Zhang saw that it was Zhao Yi, hurriedly got up from the ground, and fled, Zhao Yi chased a few steps behind, shouting:
"Don't die damn thing! Don't let me see it next time, see you and hit it once! ”
Then Zhao Yi turned around and helped up the crying Ruyi, Xi Yunzhi walked over with his stomach in his hand, Zhao Yi said: "Madame, don't be afraid, I'll go tell you!" ”
was stopped by Xi Yunzhi:
"Zhao Yi, forget it. Ye has just won the battle, and his morale is high, so don't use this kind of thing to ruin his fun. ”
Zhao Yi frowned: "Then how can it be done?" Madam. This Daniel Zhang took the initiative to join the infantry army some time ago, and he also fought in the northwest with Xiao Luo in the past, and Vice Marshal Lu saw that his martial arts skills were good, so he accepted him to improve the family army, but he did not expect that he dared to do such a thing. ”
Xi Yunzhi thought about it, but decided to shake his head: "You don't need to tell the master about this matter, I have my own way to deal with this person." This kind of thing, if it really gets on the table, it won't look good to anyone. ”
Zhao Yi hesitated for a while, and glanced back at the crying Ruyi and Ruyue, indeed, if this matter spreads, these two girls are afraid that it will be difficult to marry in the future, so if you think about it, forget it.
Xi Yunzhi looked at the direction of Daniel Zhang's departure, and secretly bit his jaw, his eyes were deep.
