Chapter 1,000 Fighting Money and Food
Tiger Kang's royal tent is located in the middle of the camp, the outer layer is guarded by the Flying Eagle Army, Fei Biao defends the front camp, the flying lion guards the baggage, and the heavy cavalry is hidden in the back camp, and Hu Kang does not know that his trump card has been discovered by Jiang Anyi.
In the king's tent, the lord of Rong Mi convened the four major Jinhu generals who accompanied the army to discuss the military situation, and said: "According to Kotov, the Zheng army has developed a new armament, and the previous defeat in Huazhou was that the Zheng army improved the catapult, which caught us off guard. ”
Perry is the fifth in the list of Golden Protectors, and is a pure general, who only likes to lead troops to war, and never gets involved in political battles. When the tiger dared to be the king, Perry guarded the western frontier of Rongmi, and overwhelmed Tian Weiguo. After the failure of the eastward invasion a few years ago, Hu Rui transferred Perry back to Crescent City, the capital of China, and asked him to train new soldiers.
Seeing the cowardice of the lord of the country, Perry said in a deep voice: "The soldiers are coming, as long as you know in advance, these new weapons are not terrible. Take the mirror shield as an example, it is necessary to face the sun, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, our army is stationed in the west, and the battle of the mirror shield before noon has little impact. The mirror shield mainly affects the war horse, the king can make a horse eye patch, and the war horse can be controlled by the soldiers after putting on the eye patch, so you don't have to worry about the impact of the mirror shield. ”
Chikou Zhe also thought of this, but was unexpectedly preempted by Perry, and said stupidly: "The power of the mirror shield is limited, the key is that Zheng Jun's newly made foot crossbow can be fired repeatedly, and the lethality is very great, so you need to make more iron shields to resist." ”
"I heard what Kotov said, the **** of this crossbow is made of hardwood, and the price is expensive, and Zheng Jun should not have too many reserves." At that time, a small group of soldiers and horses can be used to attract Zheng Jun to shoot crossbows, fight for a few more days, and consume his ****. It is necessary to send more detailed work to investigate and see what new weapons Zheng Jun has, so as not to be caught off guard and suffer losses. ”
Hu Rui sideways summoned the thick and many who were standing behind him, and said, "Thick and multi, you take someone to explore." ”
After Hu Dare died, Chou Keduo became Hu Rui's personal guard chief and the leader of the Golden Sword Guard, leading two hundred personal guards to protect Hu Rui's safety. These guards have local masters in Rong Mi country, and there are also good players recruited from other countries with a lot of money, and this expedition to Hurui brought them all, in addition to protecting their own safety, they also intended to let the guards fill up with spies to search for information about Zheng Jun.
When he was young, he traveled to the countries of the Western Regions, and learned from many martial arts masters, as short as ten years, as long as half a year, he could be proficient in his skills, and he was not confined to moves, harmonious and self-contained, and he was plausible and profound. At the age of twenty-six, Chou Keduo went to Tianluo in Anyin to teach art, and three years later, he became a teacher and was praised as a martial arts wizard by his teacher Tianluo.
The lord of Rong Mi dared to hear the reputation of Chou Keduo, and hired him as the golden sword guard in the palace, and set up a month for him in the national capital, and made an appointment to fight the world's masters. Chou Keduo defeated the masters of the Western Regions in January, and because of his vigorous body like an eagle, he was called the "Eagle of the Western Regions" by the Western Regions martial arts.
After becoming a golden sword guard, Chou Keduo did not indulge in spending time drinking, but devoted himself to studying martial arts, competing with the best players in the army, and taking a step forward, winning the trust of the lord of the country, and putting the security of the palace in his hands. Before the Jingmen Pass, Chou Ke was defeated in the hands of Jiang Anyi, and he was humiliated, and returned to Tianluo Sect to re-cultivate for two years. On this expedition, Chou Keduo intends to fight Jiang Anyi again.
The lord of the country had an order, and Chou Keduo complied with his promise, and took a selected ten of his subordinates to ride a detour to Xiaozhen. It has long been found out that the important ordnance of the Zheng army is stored in Xiaozhen, and it is well defended.
There is no moon and no stars tonight, and Chou Keduo and his subordinates stand on a high place four miles away from Xiaozhen and look into the distance, only to see that the lights are bright, and the whole Xiaozhen is like a burning bonfire. Chou Keduo has a keen eye, and when he sees a figure flickering from time to time, it should be Zheng Jun who is patrolling. The town is very well defended, and it is difficult to sneak into the town without being detected.
"Miro, you lead people to sneak in from the south, if you are discovered, don't entangle, just go back to the camp, don't wait for me." Chook Duo commanded. Qiu Xu Han Miluo understood that Chou Keduo wanted to make a noise, so that he and others could attract Zheng Jun's attention, so that he could sneak into Xiao Town. The leader's kung fu Mi Luo was very impressed, and it was difficult for him to sneak into Zheng Jun in Xiao Town alone and want to catch him, so Mi Luo replied with confidence: "Obey the order." ”
A quarter of an hour later, Zheng Jun on the south side of Xiao Town found Xi Zuo, the alarm sounded, the sound of hooves was loud, and when Zheng Jiang on duty tonight arrived, Xi Zuo had already fled, judging from the appearance of the two Xiao Zuo who had been killed, it should be sent by Rong Mijun.
On the west side, Chokeduo intervened through Zheng Jun's patrol, and Zheng Jun's attention on the watchtower was attracted by the noise on the south side, and he didn't notice a light smoke floating in the shadows. Chookeda loves to wear white robes, and a wide white robe has become his symbol, so some people call him "Silver Eagle". But tonight, in order to infiltrate Xiaozhen, Chou Keduo deliberately changed into a black robe, and tied the wide sleeves of the robe with leather bands, a bit like Zheng Guo's arrow sleeves.
The town is brightly lit, and there are torches on both sides of the avenue, and patrols pass through from time to time. The noise gradually quieted down, and Zheng Jun, who was searching for the fine work, gradually returned, and peace seemed to have returned to the town. Hidden behind a stone house, he did not move forward immediately, but listened quietly to the movements around him. A moment later, he heard the sound of faint breathing in front of him and to the left, and the obviously cunning Zheng Ren had set up a secret post.
Three zhang in front of him is a high-rise building, where the field of vision is wide, Chou Keduo can hear the breathing sound of two people inside, the breathing sound is subtle and long, it should be a good hand, Chou Ke sneered, and swept straight towards the tall building in front of him, standing there should be a clear view of the entire Xiao Town.
The two-storey wooden building outside the three zhang was a teahouse in the past, and the business travelers who came and went would stop here to talk about business, the surrounding houses were low, and the sight of the second floor was excellent, so Tao Anyun chose this place as a sentinel point. Tao Anyun was a scout in the army, and he went in and out of the Gobi many times to explore intelligence and made meritorious contributions, Jiang Anyong promoted him to be a brigade commander, and he was in charge of 100 people.
Tao Anyun's partner is Liu Jingmao under his command, who joined the army three years ago, the young man is clever and willing to learn, Tao Anyun is over forty years old, has no family background, likes Liu Jingmao very much, treats him as a nephew, as long as there is a task, he will take it with him and mention him.
"Xiao Liu, this battle with the Rong Mi people is a good opportunity, strive for more meritorious service, maybe you will also be the brigade commander after the battle." Tao Anyun said with a smile.
There were no lights in the house, and by the light from the torches on both sides of the street, the two sat at the table next to the west window, taking care of the situation outside the window, and there were different colleagues walking by on the street, and both of them were very relaxed. The night guard was very lonely, and Jiang Anyi ordered the night guard to send out a supper: half a catty of air-dried beef or mutton, a roasted naan, and a pack of preserved fruits, but it was not allowed to drink alcohol, and there was strong tea in the leather bag.
Liu Jingmao saw that Tao Lushuai was swallowing the jerky with some difficulty, so he hurriedly took out the tea bag from the fur fur beside him, and poured a bowl of tea for Tao Anyun, and the tea was still slightly warm in the sheep fur bag.
Tao Anyun swallowed the jerky with tea, and sighed: "Now being a soldier can be regarded as a blessing, the assembly in the army is much stronger than before, I want Lao Tzu to go out to investigate intelligence, let alone drinking tea, it would be good to have horse urine to drink, and sometimes you can only drink your own urine." ”
Liu Jingmao thought of drinking urine, and said with a bitter face: "Then how can I drink it." ”
"If you can't drink it, you have to die", Tao Anyun's voice was a little louder, he realized his gaffe, and lowered his voice and said: "You recruits have never suffered hardships, and you don't know whether to use it when you fight." ”
Liu Jingmao said unconvinced: "Uncle Tao, you have seen my training, which time have you been lazy, don't you often say that you usually have a better chance of surviving by enduring hardships and fighting, this time I am no worse than others when I go out with the army." ”
Tao Anyun said with a smile: "You kid is really not lazy in training, and when the time comes, you will know that Uncle Tao did not lie to you." Since Lord Jiang is in charge of Huazhou, the days of our camp are better day by day, thanks to Lord Jiang. In the past, let's not talk about having meat to eat, even the military rations that should be issued have been deducted, and we are thankful that half of the salary is in hand, which is like the military salary that should be there now, there are vegetables and meat, there are subsidies for fighting, and the function is rewarded, and this equipment alone can give us an extra life. ”
Sighing and patting the scale armor on his body, he was still wearing soft leather armor inside, and there was a good steel knife on the table, Tao Anyun was a little distracted, if he had such equipment at the beginning, many robes would not have died on the battlefield.
Liu Jingmao whispered a little excitedly: "Uncle Tao, I heard that Lord Jiang and Guan Shuai wore a pair of pants and planted a lot of cronies in the camp, so Lord Jiang will continue to send silver to the camp." Uncle Tao, we are under the command of General Jiang, and this equipment is first-class in the camp, and the brothers in the other battalions are very envious. ”
Tao Anyun said lazily: "Only with Jiang Da can we have peace in this Huazhou, and we have a good life as soldiers, and now that Jiang Daren has brought us out, we will fight a good battle and return it, we can't take care of other things." ”
Liu Jingmao is a native of Huazhou, and when he said of Jiang Daren, he was full of gratitude: "My family is thanks to Jiang Da's talent......
Tao Anyun smiled and listened to Liu Jingmao with tea, the corner of his eyes swept to the east window and the black shadow flashed, many years of scout experience told him that someone had sneaked in, the tea bowl in his hand was thrown towards the east window, and he was about to get up and draw his knife and shout loudly, but the black shadow flashed like a ghost, and a palm slapped towards his chest.
With a soft "snap", the palm of his hand quickly imprinted on Tao Anyun's chest, Tao Anyun felt like countless knives were pierced into his heart, and his body slammed into the wall. Chou Ke slammed it with one more palm, didn't look at it, and slapped his backhand at Liu Jingmao, who was stunned on the side, Liu Jingmao woke up suddenly, and fell backwards with both hands to protect his chest.
The strong wind blew from above the front door, Liu Jingmao fell to the ground, and tried his best to roll to the side, he was stunned for a while, he didn't expect that he actually lost his hand, this kid reacted very sensitively. It's just that it's not so easy to escape from his hands, so he snorted softly, his figure jumped up, and his toes pointed towards Liu Jingmao's head.
