Chapter XXXVII
Zhang drove the tiger to pass the order, the Feifeng army reassembled in rows and rows, in the case of blocking in front and chasing soldiers, the female soldiers looked calm and calm, busy and not chaotic quickly formed a fan-shaped formation, Hong Liejun saw that the friendly army was stagnant, several generals stepped forward to ask me how to act, I said: "There are 20,000 cavalry in front of the Tailang, ask our people to cooperate with the Feifeng Army to eat them!" ”
My mother said: "No need, our army is ready, just ask the friendly army to hold down the position for us in this battle." As he spoke, he passed two more orders, and when the banner of Haggis just appeared on the horizon, his mother waved his hand: "Action!" ”
With an order, the large array in front of the Feifeng Army suddenly launched, and the two 10,000 troops behind the formation bypassed the Heggis Army from both sides, in addition to the 30,000 horses to meet the Hong Lie Army, the Feifeng Army almost used all the remaining fresh forces in this local battle, it can also be said that the lion and the rabbit are still full force, and the 20,000 cavalry of the Tailang were originally casually moving forward slowly, they originally thought that they were just adding momentum, and they didn't even expect that there would be a war, As a result, all of a sudden, he was surrounded by enemy troops all over the mountains, and he was suspicious that there had been a battle ahead, and he was just about to send someone to cover the two wings, and the two thousand people of the Feifeng Army had already crashed in, and the Hegis Army was like a weak man who was congenitally deficient and was slammed by a three-handed giant, and his feet collapsed, and he was immediately scattered by the charging Feifeng Army, if these 20,000 people chose to flee for their lives at the beginning of the war or find a hole to die in the direction of Wu Sizhong's army, there may be a glimmer of life, but it is too late to say anything now, A gust of wind and dust rose, they quickly disappeared in our eyes, the Feifeng Army was outnumbered by the crowd and the sword was like the wind, and the fighting sound in front of it quickly changed from big to weak, from weak to nothing, a female soldier came to the old mother covered in blood, knelt down on one knee and said: "The 20,000 cavalry of Hegis have been wiped out by our army!" ”
My mother said, "What are the casualties of the soldiers?" ”
"It's not clear for the time being, it shouldn't be more than 5,000."
My mother's expression darkened, and she waved her hand and said, "Take the bodies of the sisters and continue to march towards the headquarters of Lantailang." ”
At first, the male soldiers of the Hong Liejun saw that the female soldiers were all fighting bravely like tigers and killing people, and they all clutched a handful of cold sweat in their hands, but at this moment, they couldn't help but look sad, and looked at the generals around them one by one, Guo Dingyuan also understood that this was a public anger, and sighed: "If General Meng does not give up, let our people stand up to the front this time." ”
The old mother said lightly: "This is not in a hurry, Tailang must have received the letter now, he is waiting for us with ease, the next battle is a tough battle, our two armies can only hope to win if they work together, why divide each other?" ”
Guo Dingyuan nodded silently, wanted to say something and looked at the bitter plum beside him, and finally closed his mouth again. Seeing this, I came to the two of them and motioned Kumei to let go, and then I put my heart into my heart and said: "General Guo, the Left Route Army is still under your command, I hope you can put aside all prejudices and fully cooperate with the general, if you still want to go back to Fuzhou, not only will you have to face the 600,000 horses in Wu Sizhong alone, but our soldiers may not agree." ”
Guo Dingyuan said angrily: "The young general doesn't need to say much, I understand all this." ”
I patted him on the shoulder and said, "That's good." ”
Guo Dingyuan squinted at me and said, "I still have reservations about what you did, it's really too risky." ”
I was stunned and said, "Why did you say you went back again?" ”
Guo Dingyuan smiled slightly: "But so what? Even if it's wrong, I have to go with your sword mountain and sea of fire, the big husband horse leather shroud is the best destination, who hasn't said these bold words in Ping, but there are a few who can really kill as happily as now, I am willing to disobey the order of the handsome man to the end, and I can't let the girls look down on our Honglie men! He turned to his mother and said with a resolute expression, "General, if you can trust our Hong Liejun, we will do the things after the break, you just take the headquarters to do your business, and I will deal with the chasing soldiers in Wu Sizhong, we have a lot of experience in this kind of thing." ”
Mom nodded and said, "I can naturally trust you." ”
"Good!" Guo Dingyuan immediately convened the generals of the Left Route Army to hold a brief meeting, and arranged for all departments to form a defensive line to block the pursuit of Wu Sizhong between the two large battalions of Hejis, speaking of which is indeed the specialty of the Hong Lie Army, in the past, the Hong Lie Army did not want to advance and retreat when it met Hejis, and the strategy of alternate cover has long been familiar with it, but I know that Guo Dingyuan's pressure is not small, and the previous retreat is well-founded, this time the rear will be the main battlefield, once the Feifeng Army is lost, the 130,000 people of the Left Route Army will be in the situation of being attacked on the back of the abdomen...... Guo Dingyuan's strategy was unexpectedly announced but aroused strong opposition, and when the soldiers heard that they could not charge into battle with the Feifeng Army, they all reacted violently, and I hurriedly stood on the horse again and said loudly: "Brothers, although we are responsible for defense, but the responsibility is heavy, the sisters of the Feifeng Army need to have no worries to fight a good battle, it depends on whether your arms are solid or not." When the men heard this witty remark, they laughed and gladly accepted the order, and the Feifeng Army all rolled their eyes, all talking to themselves.
Seeing that everything was arranged, my mother said happily: "That's good, so that you can get out of the sheep and sheep with confidence." ”
I was surprised, "Get out? Where do you want me to go? ”
My mother lowered her voice and said, "I'm going to let you do a big thing, and the key to success or failure this time is here." ”
I held my breath and said, "What's the matter?" ”
The old mother said word by word: "I want you and Su Jing to join forces to copy the grain and grass camp of Hejis!" ”
I was pleasantly surprised, "Do you know where their granary is?" "Even if I have never fought again, I know that grain and grass are important to the army, of course Shi Cundao has also used this brain, but in the past, when the Honglie Empire and Hegis were in a standoff, this problem was meaningless to the two families, the armies of both sides were head to head, grain and grass were in the rear, and it was impossible to talk about looting and sneak attacks, so this key move could not be used, and the Feifeng Army came from afar, but I didn't expect the fundamental place of Heggis to be known to my mother.
The old mother turned around and pointed, "It's all thanks to this little girl." ”
I took a look and saw Ma Jing riding on the horse with a smile and said, "Today I have the courage to command the two sword gods." ”
When Geng Ling and I occupied the mountain, it was this Ma Jing who took me to see my mother, and she was my mother's cronies, so we were old friends, so I asked straight to the point: "How did you touch that place?" ”
Ma Jing said: "I took someone to touch this matter before the general was still in the daughter country, God help me, and I finally found it the day before yesterday." ”
I couldn't wait, "Where?" "Actually, I've had this in mind, and on several occasions I've condescendingly looked down on the camp of Haggis to find the location of their grain and grass, but to no avail.
Ma Jing said: "You must not have imagined that their granary is in the Black Forest!" ”
It dawned on me that no wonder I couldn't find it, the Black Forest was covered with trees all year round, and from the perspective of the trees, there was nothing to see except the big trees that covered the sky, and it was almost a natural camouflage.
My mother said: "Hegis's granary must be guarded by elite soldiers, but the number of people is not too much, I think it is most appropriate for you and Xiao Jing to go, this is also my most important move, everything we have done today can be said to be covering for you." I'll send you 1,000 men, bring more oil and fire, and destroy the granary!" ”
I said, "Yes, let's go." ”
The old mother Yin Yin instructed: "Be careful! ”
I explained a few words to Guo Dingyuan, and he was also pleasantly surprised, according to his intentions, he was about to turn around and storm the granary, and my mother said: "It is inconvenient for the army to march in the Black Forest, and if we expose our intentions, Hegis will definitely come to the rescue desperately, and it will be wasted." Guo Dingyuan thought about it, and he inevitably gave another advice.
The 1000 Flying Phoenix Army was ready to go, Ma Jing was the temporary commander of this operation, and she said to me and Su Jing: "Please dismount the two sword gods, we can only go on foot, otherwise it will be easy to be exposed." ”
As soon as we got off the horse and were about to leave, I felt that there were a bunch of people around me at some point, and when I looked at Zhang Shilei, he smiled at me: "There are so many people, there are not many of us, young master, you can take us with you." ”
Ma Jing straightened her face and said: "Be alert to me for a while, I'll ask you if it's a big deal." ”
Zhang Shilei grimaced behind her back and was commanded by a woman, which was a rare experience for them.
A group of us crossed the Gobi into the forest, this is the first time I stepped into the famous Black Forest, at this time the sky has been bright, this Black Forest in the ancient wood forest vines coiled, touching a few people hugging the thick trees, the sun is not penetrating most, a few steps away on the black can not see, originally lush and huge forest, except for the occasional few strange birds chirp no sound, everywhere reveals a sinister atmosphere, I secretly think that this is probably the reason why this is called the "black" forest, And they wanted to fight in this darkness, and they wanted to fight with the men and horses of Heggis, and they had put the granary here with a layer of insurance.
Ma Jing has obviously traveled this route countless times, still moving smoothly in the dark, from time to time pursed lips and issued a secret signal to the people behind to follow, we are in the woods to wipe, I feel that we have gone deep into the hinterland, but the sound of fighting outside is still clearly audible, indicating that we are actually still spinning on the edge, the female soldiers of the Feifeng Army look awe-inspiring, one by one skillful, 1000 people act together without making a sound.
Su Jing and Ma Jing and I led the way in front of the head, and Su Jing suddenly stretched out his hand to stop me and Ma Jing and said: "There is an ambush ahead, and there are two of them, but the location where the breath comes out is very strange, as if suspended in mid-air." ”
Ma Jing beckoned, and the two female soldiers who had been following her half-knelt down, took the bow and arrow from their backs and put them on the ground, followed by a "whoosh" sound, the two of them released the arrows at the same time, but only one sound was made because of the same action, and then a soldier of Hegis fell from the two trees more than ten meters in front of him, and the two arrows passed through the heart, and these two people died before they even had time to hum.
Ma Jing said: "It's not an ambush, it's two secret sentinels, we have already figured out their location, and we didn't want to startle the snake before." ”
Su Jing praised: "Good archery!" ”
The two female soldiers didn't answer, they bowed to Su Jing together, and then put their bows and arrows behind their backs.
Zhang Shilei followed behind me, he witnessed the archery skills of two female soldiers, and there was no shortage of people who were good at archery in Hong Lie's army, but such a clean and neat technique came from the hands of two women, Zhang Shilei couldn't help but grin at me to express surprise.
In this way, we gradually walked away in the Black Forest, and the sound on the battlefield gradually faded away, Ma Jing slowly followed the marks left before to the destination, on the road ahead, in the grass, and between the canopies from time to time there were Haggis's secret sentinels and mobile sentinels on reconnaissance and patrol, first, Ma Jing was familiar with the terrain and their laws, and secondly, we had Su Jing It was equivalent to having a fully automatic detector, where there was an ambush at a glance, or Su Jing made a move, or the female soldiers suddenly used cold arrows, these obstacles were cleared one by one, We've never slowed down.
Zhang Shilei followed behind and looked more and more surprised, in terms of martial arts, he and these female soldiers may not be bad, but he is already the best in the Hong Lie Army, and although the 1000 Feifeng Army is also carefully selected, it is obvious from one side that the quality of the individual soldiers of the Feifeng Army is higher than that of the Hong Lie Army, and in terms of tactical coordination, even if a considerable number of kung fu masters can be found in the Hong Lie Army, it will never reach this tacit understanding. After this battle, these boys may never dare to look down on women in the future.
At this time, Su Jing gestured to let everyone pay attention to concealment, and she herself also knelt down and said to Ma Jing: "There are two teams of people patrolling through the front row of woods, about 10 people per team, I am in charge of the team on the right, and you can find someone to deal with the team on the left." ”
Ma Jing said excitedly: "That's it, after this trail is the granary, but it's ......"
I asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Ma Jing said: "I only saw that the convoy of Heggis came here to transport grain and grass, but I have never entered what is really inside the granary, and every time I arrive here, the guards are very strict, I am afraid of alarming them, so I don't dare to break in." ”
Su Jing glanced at her and said, "Can you be sure that this is the granary?" ”
Ma Jing said firmly: "Yes! ”
"That's it, let's do it."
Ma Jing turned around and said, "The first team comes with me, and the others are ready to work!" ”
The female soldiers heard about the place, all of them were gearing up, and the team named by Ma Jing was about 10 people, we crept to the edge of the woods, looked forward through the dense branches and leaves, and saw that there were indeed two teams of people patrolling on the forest path, each team had 10 people as Su Jing said, and there were a large number of figures flickering among the trees across the path, and occasionally there was the sound of wooden wheels, and it could almost be inferred that it was the granary of Hegis.
Su Jing said in a low voice: "Just according to what I said, I will be right and you will be left, and you will do it first." ”
Ma Jing waved her people in a row, pointed to the patrol soldiers on the left and ordered: "The first one is mine, and so on to calculate the head, be sure to hit the hand without making any movement!" ”
The female soldiers silently looked at the opposite side, and after a while, they made a gesture to Ma Jing together, and Ma Jing said, "Up!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Ma Jing and the others jumped out together, because the distance was too close for fear that the sound of the bowstring would arouse suspicion, so Ma Jing and the others all used short knives, and the 10 people immediately stuck to their enemies as soon as they flashed out, and they listened to the puff sound, and the patrol on the left suddenly had seven or eight people in the account, Su Jing waited for them to do it before they appeared in an orderly manner, and the figure flashed a few ghostly, and the soldiers on the right were all knocked to the ground by her silently. Seeing that I was about to succeed, I suddenly heard the sound of "smack", it turned out that there was a kung fu in the team of Heggis soldiers on the left, and the female soldier who dealt with him was only one step slower and was blocked by him with a long knife. Ma Jing nodded at him as a sign of gratitude, instructed his subordinates to drag the corpse into the woods, wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "The rest will be left to Master Su and Mr. Sword God." ”
I asked Su Jing, "Shouldn't I be ready?" "In my opinion, the matter is already half of the success, no matter how many troops are stationed in the granary, Su Jing and I should be able to deal with it, as long as the other party is in chaos, the Feifeng Army will take advantage of the weakness and it will be done.
Su Jing said: "Don't be busy first, you and I will go to explore the truth and then talk about it." She asked Ma Jing to lead people to wait at the edge of the woods, and dragged my arm into the jungle opposite, Su Jing showed his stealth technique in the palace of the Honglie Empire last time, and dodged a few sentries, the two of us hid behind a tree, and I was ecstatic after just looking inside.
I saw that this jungle has been opened up countless open spaces, each of which is the size of a basketball court, and only the most luxuriant trees are left on the four sides of the clearing as a cover to hide people's ears, at this time it is in full swing, there is just a group of men and horses to load grain and grass, there are hundreds of two-wheeled carriages parked in the gap of the clearing, and thousands of soldiers who are responsible for carrying them carry a large number of grain bags from a pit and load them onto the carriage.
I clenched my fist excitedly: "That's right! ”
"Wait!" Su Jing frowned and said, "You can take a look again." ”
"Any questions?" I asked, puzzled.
The wagons were loaded and drove away from the barracks. The porters all stepped aside, and someone commanded loudly: "Hecang - fall!" Then I heard the sound of the hinges, and a huge lid just enough to cover the pit slowly fell with the rotation of the hinge machine, and I could see that the lid was actually made of several wooden boards, and when the cover was closed, the ground was as flat as the ground, and even the vegetation and soil were no different from other places. This is only one of the granaries, apparently each of the vacant lots that have been opened is a warehouse, there are hundreds of such warehouses at a glance, and the granaries of Hegis are actually built underground, in other words, the place where they store grain and grass is not a granary at all, but a granary!
Su Jing silently turned his head to look into my eyes and said quietly, "Now you know what the problem is, right?" ”
Contrary to the surprise I had just had, I was like a bucket of cold water, cold from head to toe - what are we going to do with these cellars?
It's the beginning of the month...... Pass...... That one...... Uh, forget it, it's fine.
