Chapter 29: Grassland Raiders (4)
The Xianbei troops soon surrounded all the Han troops.
At this time, the Chinese army from the Xianbei army slowly walked out of a group of Xianbei nobles, led by a person with long hair, sunken eye sockets, a huge hooked nose, and luxurious clothes, which made people very impressive. He said lightly in that broken Chinese tone: "Yo, isn't this the famous Han Dynasty flying general General Lu Bulu?" Why are you so depressed? The prairie eagle is on top, I can't imagine that you have today, hahahaha! ”
Although Lu Bu is arrogant but not reckless, the situation is stronger than people at this time, although Lu Bu was forced to be angry by the other party's tone, he still suppressed his anger, and asked calmly: "It's Lu, who are you?" ”
At this time, Lu Bu still had a hope in his heart, that is, two days ago, he sent the greedy wolf to ask for help, at this time, the entire grassland was full of Xianbei troops cruising back and forth to follow their traces, if they sent a small group of scout troops to ask for help, it would be tantamount to death, and it was even very likely to expose their whereabouts.
But there are a lot of wolves living on the grassland, and the appearance of a wolf will not attract the attention of the Xianbei people. After calculating the time, if there is no accident, reinforcements from the state should also appear.
The questioner laughed wildly: "Do you ask me? I am the great leader of Xianbei, and even yes! ”
Seeing that the other party was not in a hurry to attack, Lu Bu was also happy to delay time, and deliberately teased the other party and said, "Helian? Oh, it turned out to be you, oops, I thought the successor of the sandalwood locust was such a great hero. But I didn't expect it, we Han people have a saying: Lao Tzu hero bear, you are such a bear. No wonder our army has not encountered an enemy in the grassland for half a year, the big leaders are all like this bear, how strong can the people under them be! ”
As soon as Lu Bu's words fell, the greedy wolf cavalry behind him all laughed loudly, not taking the enemy in front of them in their eyes at all.
He Lian was suddenly angry, and shouted: "Lu Bu, at this moment, you have been surrounded by my Xianbei 30,000 warriors, and you dare to be stubborn when you die!" Could it be that the legendary flying general is just a man who speaks quickly in vain? ”
Lu Bu was about to answer, but Tai Shici on the side couldn't bear to beat his horse and rushed to the front of the two armies: "Barbarian, dare to insult my master's prestige!" Hu Gou, dare to go down to the battle to try the double guns in the hands of your grandfather Taishi! ”
Seeing Tai Shi Ci rushing out of Lu Bu's heart, Lu Bu wanted to continue to delay time with words, but he didn't expect this kid to rush out at this time, but if he was called back at this time, the morale of the Han army would plummet, and Lu Bu had to clench his longbow and be ready to rescue at any time, and Zhao Yun and other generals next to him were also general actions.
Although He Lian was afraid of Lu Bu's prestige, he had never heard of the name of this young general. was insulted by such a stinky child, and the Xianbei people, who had always been unruly, were in an uproar, and then countless Xianbei people wanted to rush out and kill this Han boy who spoke wildly.
You must know that the nomads living in the grassland only have the tradition of rushing forward when they fight, unlike the Han army in the Central Plains, which still has many particularities such as calling formations, fighting generals, fighting formations, fighting soldiers, etc., which is also the reason why Lu Bu and others were shocked when they saw Tai Shici rushing out rashly, Lu Bu originally wanted to delay time, but if the enemy rushed up and caused a battle, it would be contrary to the original intention.
But to the surprise of Lu Bu and others, although Helian was not as capable as his father, he also admired the Han culture like his father Tan Shihuai, and saw Tai Shi Ci rushing out single-handedly, only saying that the other party wanted to fight generals, so he stopped his subordinates from wanting to rush forward, but sent a military general to fight Tai Shi Ci alone.
Lu Bu couldn't help but settle down when he saw this, but he didn't expect this kid Tai Shici to hit the right thing and delay the time. God help me.
He didn't worry about Tai Shi Ci's safety at all, because as Tai Shi Ci's master, he knew too well the weight of his apprentice, Tai Shi Ci and Lu Bu were also born with divine power, but they didn't learn the Fang Tian painting halberd that Lu Bu was good at, but practiced the double guns in a unique way, I don't know if this kid is talented or he is unlucky, he actually found a set of double gun methods by himself by combining various martial arts, and the power is not small, even Wei Xu, Song Xian and other generals in the Bingzhou army are not his opponents.
Sure enough, in the face of an opponent who was much more burly than himself, Tai Shici was not afraid, the opponent just rushed in front of him, his left pistol was light, and he pushed the powerful blow to the side, and the right hand pistol suddenly probed, piercing the opponent's throat like a poisonous snake out of a hole, and picking the opponent off the horse with just one move.
He Lian was shocked and sent another general, but he didn't expect that the second general sent out did not go through three rounds under Tai Shici.
Tai Shi Ci picked two enemy generals in a row and shouted proudly: "Do you dare to be called a grassland warrior with this ability?" ”
He Lian was so angry by Tai Shi Ci's arrogant appearance that he had already left behind what fighting generals had already left behind, and just as he was about to give the order to charge the whole army, suddenly a wolf howl came from a distance.
This abrupt wolf howl made the Xianbei people feel very strange, the steppe wolves are all ferocious and cunning existences, if they encounter a large group of people, they will always retreat, where will they appear rashly. After hearing this, Lu Bu became happy, he looked back at the soldiers behind him and said, "Brothers, our reinforcements from the state are here!" ”
Sure enough, it didn't take long for countless black-clothed and black-armored Han troops to appear in the direction of Bingzhou, there were more than 50,000 people, and there were more than 10,000 cavalry alone, and the Han army obviously found out about the situation here.
The cavalry accelerated and broke away from the large force to the rear of Helian and others, while the remaining 40,000 infantry gradually divided into a phalanx of 40,000 people during the march, scattered and encircled.
Seeing this, there was an irrepressible commotion in the Xianbei army, and he Lian was shocked and hurriedly ordered the army to retreat, and the 30,000 Xianbei light horsemen ran away in a blink of an eye.
The cavalry unit of the Han army soon came to the place where the two armies were holding each other, and the handsome banner of this cavalry was a huge T-character, which was actually led by Ding Yuan, the assassin of Bingzhou.
Lu Bu hurriedly led the team to converge, and when he was still dozens of steps away from the other party, Lu Bu turned over and dismounted, and the generals behind him also acted in the same way, and Lu Bu shouted loudly: "Riding the capital captain Lu Bu to meet Lord Thorn Shi." The expeditionary force successfully completed its mission and is hereby reinstated. ”
Ding Yuan looked at the group of soldiers in front of him, who were in ragged clothes but in good spirits, and said excitedly: "Children, you have finally come back safely, it's good for you to come back, it's good to come back." ”
Hearing Ding Yuan's words, these elite soldiers who had won a hundred battles were speechless with excitement, and after countless battles and more than a hundred thrilling days and nights, they finally ushered in the day of going home.
Ding Yuan suddenly shouted, "Welcome home, warriors!" ”
More than 10,000 cavalrymen behind him raised their guns in unison and shouted: "Welcome home, warriors," and immediately after, the same call came from the infantry farther away: "Welcome home!" ”
Hearing the affectionate calls of countless comrades-in-arms, these warriors who had survived a hundred battles finally couldn't control their emotions, and one after another hid their faces and cried bitterly, more than 3,000 men with iron wills cried like a group of children in an instant, but no one laughed at them at this moment. On the contrary, all the people present, from Ding Yuan to ordinary soldiers, paid high tribute to this group of warriors who were on an expedition outside the fortress with their fiery eyes and the action of taking off their helmets.
Since the soldiers of the expeditionary force began to vent their inner depression, Ding Yuan, who had always been strict in governing the army, did not say a word, and at the same time instructed Lu Bu not to stop them, and ordered all the other generals to order their subordinates to surround the expeditionary force to guard and guard, but not to disturb them. Although he hadn't experienced it, Ding Yuan could feel that these young warriors had endured countless pressures during the expedition for more than half a year, and it was time for them to vent and relax, after all, these warriors were all living flesh and blood.
After nearly half an hour, the excited mood of all the soldiers of the expeditionary force gradually calmed down, Lu Bu looked at the soldiers who consciously organized the formation after calming down and nodded with satisfaction, it didn't take much effort, the greedy wolf cavalry had fully recovered, and they had become that brave and unparalleled warrior division again.
Lu Bu returned to the greedy wolf cavalry formation, led the troops to advance slowly, and when he came to Ding Yuan, he raised his hand, and the troops behind him stopped in unison. Lu Brown said: "Lord Shi, in this expedition, our army destroyed a total of twenty-eight Xianbei tribes, annihilated more than 18,000 enemies, captured more than 5,000 people, and exiled more than 8,000 people. At the same time, the original soldiers of our expeditionary force were 5,000, 1,423 soldiers were killed, and now there are 3,577 soldiers! ”
Ding Yuan nodded and said loudly: "Soldiers of the expeditionary force, robes, you have achieved a great victory. I hereby declare that all the non-commissioned officers of the expeditionary force will be rewarded with a reward of one thousand each, and that the rest of the generals will be promoted to a higher rank with a reward of five thousand. Tonight, we will celebrate in Jiuyuan City, and after returning to Jinyang, we will feast for three days! ”
After listening to Ding Yuan's reward, Lu Bu knelt on one knee, and all the soldiers behind him immediately followed suit, and replied in unison: "Thank you, Lord for the reward!" ”
Ding Yuan raised his hands and said with a smile: "Warriors, get up quickly, let's go home!" ”
When the soldiers of the expeditionary force returned to Jiuyuan City, they were welcomed by all the people in the city, the joy of triumph was filled with every smiling face, and all the people were beaming, although the expedition did not hurt the foundation of the Xianbei tribe, but it caused the rebellion of other Hu people against the Xianbei tribe, causing turmoil in the grassland, at least in the short term, and there was no frontier trouble in the state, how could this not make the people of the state who were plagued by foreign races every year rejoice.
At the same time, although Lu Bu was very happy in his heart, he did not dare to relax. Because, the year 184 A.D. is coming soon.
