Chapter 0705 - Accident
The black mask and black armor were in stark contrast to the snow-like sword forest.
The Qianghu cavalry, who had never seen such a class of troops, crashed into it, and melted at once like grease meeting a hot pot.
It was only a moment of effort, and hundreds of cavalry troops, including men and horses, turned into large pieces of minced meat.
The Qianghu rebels, who were still thinking of organizing a charge, were shocked when they saw this scene, and the soldiers at the front were cowardly, and they involuntarily retreated backwards.
The leader of Qianghu slashed at the Hu soldiers who dared to retreat without obeying the order, and shouted the order: "Those who dare to retreat without permission will be killed!" β
"The Han army on the opposite side is only half of ours, and in our rear, there are many times more reinforcements than them. What are you afraid of, rush! Rush forward! β
"As long as you rush up, you can consume them all!"
The first charge did not crush the Qianghu.
Even if the Modao team made Qiang Hu fearful, sometimes, driven by fear, it would make people burst out with greater impulses.
It's just that the impulse at this time makes the formation more scattered.
Huo Yi felt that the palm of his hand holding the Mo knife was a little wet, but fortunately, the pattern on the handle of the knife kept his hand from slipping.
He gasped for air, and all he felt was a fishy smell in his mouth and nose.
Although he is called a captain of Huqiang, in fact, since he came to Longyou, he started as an ordinary soldier.
Everything that Captain Huqiang's subordinates had to go through, he had to go through.
From the most basic formations, training, to night raids, emergency formations, etc., there is no special treatment.
I heard that if anyone is under the command of Feng Junhou, everyone must be like this.
In his first battle, he received the title of a trainee captain and followed the team leader.
At this time, he felt the consistent movements of everyone around him, and he only felt that the previous training was really worth it.
Usually his colleagues stood beside him, although no one spoke casually, but it also added courage to him when he went to the battlefield for the first time, so that there was no sense of fear.
"They're here again!"
The lieutenant who was specially sent by Zhang Wei reminded in a low voice, "Get ready." β
Huo Yi's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly followed the lieutenant, his eyes staring closely ahead, and he had no distractions.
There was no doubt that Qianghu's charge this time was defeated even faster than the last.
On the north side of the battlefield, the cavalry led by Liu Hun finally arrived.
It was half a day slower than the agreed time.
The reason was to clear the rebels scattered around Di Dao in advance.
With Liu Hun's wings beside him, Jufu was finally able to let go of his hands and feet.
Moving forward, the unstoppable Han army forced the Hu people, who were twice their size, to retreat step by step.
I saw that every time the people rushed forward, they were all shattered, and there were no corpses.
Seeing the black-armored demon holding a bright long knife slowly pressing forward, Qiang Hu finally couldn't withstand this powerful pressure.
The defeated soldiers, who had retreated again, did not return to the army, and fled directly to both sides with their horses drawn.
With them taking the lead, the Hu people at the front didn't know who shouted first, turned around one after another, and fled separately.
Before the Hu people under the city of Didao could form a formation to meet the Han army coming from the north, the front was sent to intercept the front army and was already defeated.
Once someone takes the lead in escaping on the battlefield, the leader must do everything possible to stop it in time.
Otherwise, a local rout will be formed, and it will be easy to form a situation of defeat like a mountain.
Qianghu did not have a strong enough leader, and he was already scattered.
There was no timely transmission of information, so that the people in the rear did not know what was going on, and when they saw the rout in front, the rear also became chaotic.
More importantly, the appearance of the Han army in the north hastened the collapse of the army's morale.
The Han army stopped at the foot of the city of Didao, and did not go forward to chase after the Qianghu, who had begun to show signs of defeat.
But the drums of the army were stirring up.
A low shout began to sound: "Wan Sheng! Wansheng! β
As the drums became more and more intense, thousands of people began to shout in unison: "Wan Sheng!" Dahan wins! β
There was also the sound of weapons clattering.
The sound is like substance, rolling forward, like a muffled thunder.
Even the Qianghu, who had not been affected by the rout, began to make a commotion.
Some of the Qianghu who fled first began to be driven back by Liu Hun and others.
During a short break, the crossbowmen shot at the horns.
Mo Dao Hand began to retreat into the formation, then pulled up the mask, took out a small cloth bag from his body, and took out a ration wrapped in oiled paper from it.
Peeling off the oil paper, a burst of sweetness came to the nose, which was the unique ration of Mo Dao Hand.
He put the ration to his mouth and silently nibbled on it.
Some people's dry food has been turned into pieces because of the movement, but because it is wrapped in oiled paper, it can be poured directly into the mouth, which saves a step.
There was no water on the battlefield, except for feeling a little dry in his mouth, Huo Yi felt that this dry food was really extravagant.
In the past, it was in the palace, and this kind of food was extremely rare.
Not to mention that it is obviously mixed with sugar and refined salt.
Not only him, but even the lieutenant around him was also cautious, even if a small point fell on his body, he didn't care about the blood stains all over his body, and directly picked it up and put it in his mouth.
These rations, which were given only before the battle, were the best dry rations in the army.
After chewing carefully, the lieutenant sighed comfortably, "As long as you can eat this kind of food every day, you will fight every day, then you are willing!" β
Huo Yi couldn't help coughing because of his dry throat, "It would be better if there was water." β
"If you guard the camp, there will be water."
The captain knew that Huo Yi was a character arranged by the above, and he was afraid that he would be much stronger than himself in the future, but he was also willing to communicate with him.
"It's just that this time, the Hu people don't fight, we are the attackers, as long as we can win the battle, it doesn't hurt to drink water one less time."
As he spoke, the captain looked at Huo Yi, "The baby came out of Nanxiang Academy?" β
Huo Yi nibbled on the dry food and answered vaguely, intending to go over.
Unexpectedly, the captain was talkative: "The students who came out of the school are so wow!" are all regarded as the protΓ©gΓ©s of the prince, and the future will be even had. β
"The old man also has a child, who entered the school the year before last, and sent a letter a few days ago, saying that he had been picked out this year, and he was going to Longyou's side to continue to follow the prince."
said that his eyes were full of brilliance: "In the future, it will be considered a good one." β
When Huo Yi heard this, he finally asked: "Longyou is more dangerous than Hanzhong." In the future, you will definitely have to fight with the Cao thief, aren't you worried? β
The captain glanced at Huo Yi with a strange look in his eyes, as if he didn't understand why the students in the academy actually had students like Huo Yi.
"The old man also has a child working in the workshop, married a wife, and married a Hu girl as a concubine last year, what are you afraid of?"
"There are rules for princes, and only sons are not allowed to go to the front. What's more, even if you die in battle, your family will also have preferential care, what is there to be afraid of? β
In the battle of Longyou last year, a lot of Wei soldiers were captured.
The prince also picked some people out and asked them to tell them about their days on the Cao thief's side.
After a year of hard work, fifty or sixty percent of the grain grown was harvested, and his whole family was hungry.
Even after joining the army, the family was not at peace.
If you really want to die in battle, don't say anything about preferential care, your mother-in-law is afraid that she will be forcibly married to someone else by the government immediately.
What's the picture?
But they didn't dare to escape, they really wanted to escape, and the parents, wives and children at home who were better were sentenced to hard labor.
In the heavier cases, parents were beheaded, wives and daughters were treated as camp prostitutes, and sons were among the dead, that was a common thing.
Cao thief is a usurper, and he wants to destroy the Han all the time, which must not be allowed to succeed.
I only heard the lieutenant educate Huo Yi earnestly: "So, if you don't defeat Cao Thief, how can you have a good life?" β
"After Cao Thief left Hanzhong, how many people were forced to carry ...... Hometown ......"
"Uprooted." Huo Yi couldn't help but remind.
This is what Feng Junhou said.
"Wow!" The lieutenant slapped his thigh, "It's to leave the well." β
The corners of Huo Yi's mouth twitched.
"The old man can be regarded as the first batch of people who followed the prince, but he can't read and write, so this life is estimated to be over."
The lieutenant sighed regretfully, "It's not as good as those of you who have entered the academy." β
"Baby, you have entered the school and know a lot of truths, you should know that only by defeating the Cao thief can our children and grandchildren live a good life with peace of mind."
The captain glanced at Huo Yi, "Cao Thief, he doesn't treat us people as human beings, and he still wants to live a good life?" β
He didn't understand any big truths, but just said over and over again what others had said at the "Bittersweet Remembrance" conference.
Don't say anything else, but he understands the truth that "the man and the thief are not mutually exclusive".
If the Han is gone, his family in Hanzhong will have no good life.
Therefore, it is necessary to defeat the Cao thieves and fight them so that they never turn over.
Even Huo Yi has lived in the palace since he was a child, and his heart is firm.
But when I heard that even ordinary lieutenants could chant the phrase "Han and thief are not separated" in the army, I couldn't help but shake my heart.
At this moment, the whining horns began again, and the war drums also sounded.
"Ready!"
Someone is reminding loudly.
When Huo Yi heard this, he hurriedly put down the mask and grabbed the Mo knife.
"There's no hurry, it's not time for us to play."
The old lieutenant of the fritters sat still and didn't move, "Rest again, this is not the drum beat of our Modao battalion." β
"Come on, come on, sit down, and let's talk about how to kill the thief."
The lieutenant patted his side.
Huo Yi: ......
Just when Ju Fu and Liu Hun drove Di Dao's Qianghu rebels to Daxia County according to the original plan.
Chen Shi in the south also led the people and began to move to the west to prevent the Hu people from fleeing south, and at the same time sent people to notify the bald department and ask them to block Han as soon as possible.
A considerable number of Qianghu did not stop in Daxia County, but continued to flee westward along the Daxia River.
That's when the unexpected happened.
The bald tribe guarded the cattle, sheep and horses that had been plundered in the winter, and did not move north from the temporary stronghold of White Rock City in time.
Even at this time, they did not confront the Qianghu who had returned to Han earlier.
Driven by the Han army, Qianghu retreated to Han and began to reunite with Han's Qianghu.
Faced with a Han rebel army of more than 20,000 troops, the bald department hesitated more and more.
They sent men and horses, hoping that the Han army would soon continue to advance westward and join them in attacking Han.
The bald department has no achievements, which is completely different from the bravado in winter.
When the news reached Shouyang, Feng Yong, who was basking in the sun, was suddenly annoyed: "When you grab something, you are as fierce as a wolf, and when you really fight, you are cowardly." Is this baldness waste? β
He rolled out of his rocking chair and walked to the antechamber with his feet in the wind.
The antechamber was converted into the Captain Guard's Staff.
Gongsun Zhengzheng motioned to the staff officers to prepare the map and sand table.
Then put the small flag in your hand on the sand table.
"Prince, if the bald department is not entangled with the rebels, we can only give up Han for the time being, and we can't go deeper."
Gongsun Zheng took the stick and clicked on the north side of Taoshui, "If it goes too deep, I'm afraid it will give the Cao thieves in Liangzhou a chance to take advantage of it." β
Not to mention that Zhao Yun is just putting pressure on the Wei army in Yuzhong now, even if he really marches and wants to capture Yuzhong City when the Wei army is prepared, I am afraid that it will not be easy.
Yuzhong City is not down, if Jufu Liu Hun and the others advance too westward, Cao Wei can send troops from Jincheng, another support point to the east of the Yellow River, and sneak attack their rear.
In addition, Di Dao is newly determined, and people's hearts are unstable, if he suddenly turns back, it will be good if he can run back by one-third of his more than 10,000 people.
According to the original plan, although the Han army only stopped when it attacked the city of Great Xia, there was a bald department in the west to intercept Qianghu.
With their own assistance, it was only a matter of time before the Bald Ministry annexed the Qianghu in the Hanhe Pass area.
But he can also control the baldness step by step, and finally restore the westernmost governance of Longxi without blood.
Drive the wolf and devour the tiger, then tame the wolf into a dog, and finally release the dog to bite the Wei army in Liangzhou.
It's wonderful to think about.
In order to achieve his goal, he sent women and wine, parades and promises.
Who knew that the bald department was actually cowardly at the most critical moment!
Gongsun Zheng moved the small flag to the position of Baishi City, "The bald Khotan said that their tribe has been trying to occupy Han. β
"But now the news from General Chen says that they have now retreated to White Rock City. The situation of this bald part seems to be a little strange. β
Feng Yong looked at the sand table, frowned, and said, "Baishi City was originally their stronghold, and their clan stayed there, so it's not strange to retreat there. β
"I just don't know now, whether they took the initiative to retreat or were forced to retreat."
He turned to Gongsun Zheng and asked, "Does the General Staff have a record of this situation?" β
Gongsun Zheng nodded, and changed the position of the three-way Han army on the sand table.
"Now we are all going to Daxia City to surround us. When the time comes, General Chen can lead people to the old pass and guard the north gate of Di Dao. β
"Great Xia City is not far from the old pass, and General Liu's cavalry can reach it in one day, and it can be responded to at any time."
"After capturing Daxia City, General Ju led the army to continue westward and cooperated with the Bald Department to attack Han."
Feng Yong looked at the sand table carefully and nodded: "It's a bit risky, but as long as General Chen keeps his old pass, he won't have to worry about the future." β
"In addition, Liu Hun led the cavalry to respond, which is not a big problem."
Thinking of this, Feng Yong couldn't help but regret a little in his heart.
It's better to wrap all the rebels in Di Dao's dumplings directly, and now that half of them are gone, under the unexpected weakness of the bald department, the rebels who ran back have caused trouble for themselves.
"The bald department, it seems that you want to preserve your strength!"
Feng Yong pondered for a moment and said.
Now this situation is a bit difficult to ride.
If the Han army does not continue to move forward, it will be a return of the tiger to the mountain, well, wrong, at most it will be regarded as letting the snake into the water.
What's more, it will make the bald hair suspicious.
If you continue to move forward, the bald department can borrow the power of the big man to easily take down Han.
In other circumstances, how could King Feng Ghost allow the bald hair to be so cautious?
A long time ago, a fist was pressed over, so that they knew what the iron fist of Han imperialism was.
But now that Cao Wei is watching from the north side of the Yellow River, he needs the baldness department as a buffer, and at the same time he has to lay the foundation for the management of Han, but he has to think carefully.
At this moment, I could only hear the hurried pace outside the door, and the staff officer who was born as a student of the academy hurriedly walked in: "Mountain Chief, there is an urgent military situation!" β
Feng Yong chuckled in his heart, took the secret letter from the army, and after making sure that it was complete, he opened it and looked at it.
As soon as he saw the content of the letter, Feng Yong scolded one word on the spot: "Cao! β
