097: Midyear Festival is a gift for the Tianqing Festival
July 12.
The camp of the Shu army.
Li Tingjun, the commander of the three armies, was pouring ink on the white cotton propaganda with all his attention.
"Erlu, the people anoint the people. The people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive. β
Zhao Chongtao clapped his hands and praised: "Okay." This sentence of the saint is enough to prescribe the official precept. Dashuai calligraphy, is the world's first, wonderful writing, perfect and natural. β
Li Tingqi smiled and said: "What the saint said is the golden and jade words, and some of these words can barely get the word Xiuya, which is not enough to mention." β
"Why should the handsome be too humble, watching the handsome pen, the atmosphere is majestic, the strength is free and easy, and the dripping is really ......."
The two were talking and laughing, when suddenly there was a "report-" from outside the door.
The sentry detective reported his name and said: "At three o'clock today, the Zhou army released about 2,000 villagers and drove empty-handed in the direction of Dasanguan. β
"What's the reaction of those villagers?"
"The subordinates are far away and can't see clearly, but looking at their movements, they seem to be very happy."
"Well, got it, step down."
Li Tingqi put down the pen in his hand and asked himself: "What is Zhou Jun's intention to act like this?" β
"Didn't the handsome forget the Midyear Festival?"
"Ah, this is really forgotten, the order, on the day of the Midyear Festival, half a catty of meat and a catty of wine per person, the Sicang will be distributed in advance."
"No." A clerk responded and began to put pen to paper.
On the evening of the 14th of July, the scouts reported that the Zhou camp had a group of about 2,000 elite soldiers set out at the end of the Shen Dynasty, aiming north.
"To the north? What flag? β
"It's the word 'Xiang', but the truth is uncertain."
Li Tingqi slapped the table, and there were green tendons on his forehead, "Drum gathering." β
β¦β¦
The morning light was faint, Jia Yin stretched his waist comfortably, jumped down from under the tree, kicked away Qi Sanduo, who was pretending to be coming to shoot the dust, and asked with a smile: "Coming?" β
"Here, a whole thousand cavalry, the flag news has been reported to Xiang Shuai, what should we do next."
"When they pass, we will push the tree down, and the enemy will become a turtle in an urn, how much did you saw last night?"
"Don't talk about seventy or eighty roots, now you just need to lean hard and fall down, head, you are really a brilliant plan."
A brilliant plan?
Jia Yin turned his head and glanced at Qin Yue's hiding place on the other side of the mountain road, thinking that it was still far behind.
I just had a general idea when I was exploring the way, Jiu Lang and Chen Tou could think of hiding from the sky and crossing the sea, the real armor soldiers were fake country soldiers, and they ambushed into the mountains two days earlier, and the real country soldiers were fully armed, but in fact, they were just transporting weapons and equipment. This not only confused the Shu army, but also allowed the soldiers to get enough rest.
What's even more unexpected is that the Midyear Festival will be used, everyone will worship their ancestors on the Halloween Festival, and the city gate will be opened half an hour earlier and closed an hour later. A fake sneak attack really made the enemy fall for the plan, and sent cavalry to rescue overnight, but he didn't know that the pocket had already been laid in front of him.
The war horses are galloping, and the nail leaves are sonorous.
The Shu army lined up in a long line, roaring on the official road below the mountain, and gradually disappeared behind the hill.
Jia Yin silently counted three hundred times, and with a wave of his sword, the big trees fell down with branches and branches, blocking the official road horizontally and vertically.
"The enemy army will collapse in half an hour at most, everyone is in place, rest for a while, and when the enemy army comes, just use bows and arrows to throw spears to greet them, cooperate with the crossbow team to snipe, and wait for the blood team to charge, and then we will short-live."
"No."
Only two quarters of an hour later, the armor soldiers who were on guard at the hill had already waved their flags, and after a while they could feel the tremors of the earth's surface, shouts of killing, and screams rang out from far and near, and finally a horse's head appeared on the hill, and then a horse galloped down in a hurry.
"Shoot-"
Zhao Shanbao shot an arrow, followed by the sound of "tent", a bang, dozens of sharp arrows wrapped in the breath of death shot towards the unsuspecting Shu army, in an instant, screams, war horses screamed. This time, the Shu army was attacked by the enemy on its back, and it became more and more panicked.
"Rush over, rush over ......"
"I can't rush it, there are big trees in the way......"
The rear of the cavalry squeezed the front team, and the front team had nowhere to go, so they hurriedly crowded together, and were hit by two more rounds of crossbow arrows, and nearly a hundred people fell to the ground in the blink of an eye.
"Resist, resist, resist meβ"
Jia Yin saw a general waving his sword and roaring while dismounting and fleeing frantically, and saw him jumping and running between the tree barriers under the escort of seven or eight armor soldiers, while the bloody killing battalion with iron armor had already rushed into the belly of the enemy army under the personal leadership of Chen Scar.
At that moment, the tiger roared: "Protect me and kill the general." β
Jiayin rushed down the hill in a few leaps, and when he saw that he was approaching the target, the three guards waved their blades to resist. Jia Yin waved the sword in his hand with a sharp sword light, fired three shots with one sword, and stepped forward to perform three "Thor Whip" styles, forcing the armor in front of him to retreat. He approached and slashed through the neck of a soldier, and a stream of blood gushed out in an instant.
Jia Yin's steps did not stop, the knife in his hand rolled like a dragon, and in the blink of an eye, two more guards were slashed, and an arrow rushed up, and the sword light slashed down on the enemy general. The general hurriedly turned around and blocked the sword, but he couldn't eat the power of Jia Yin's hands together.
There was a "choking" sound, the long sword was broken in two, and Jia Yin grabbed the general's armor, and the long knife went to the neck.
"Surrender and don't dieβ"
Seeing a bloody man holding a knife on the neck of the main general, the surrounding Shu troops were stunned for a while, Wang Shan, Zhang Tong and others took the opportunity to dance the knife and chop, rushed forward to protect it, although Qi three people were fat, their hands were fast, and they cut off the flag with one knife.
"The enemy general has been captured, surrender and not die-"
Jiang Hui was depressed and angry in his heart, watching the team scatter and flee, and those who couldn't escape knelt down and surrendered one by one, knowing that everything was over, and for a while he only felt that the sky was dark, and a mouthful of black blood spurted out, and he passed out.
In the battle, the Zhou soldiers won a great victory, killing more than 300 enemies and capturing more than 300 generals and colonels, including Jiang Hui. There were countless guns and knives, nearly 500 horses, and 300 people fled in the mountains and forests.
Jia Yin was splashed with blood, Qi San hurriedly collected the kettle and came over, and washed it one pot after another, using five or six bamboo tubes in a row, before it was roughly flushed.
"Help find a pair of clean leggings, it's okay to get wet, and your feet can't stand it."
Jia Yin still has some fine skin and tender meat at the moment, especially in order to climb the mountain to wear straw sandals, he just rushed too hard, and now he doesn't dare to take the stinging steps on his feet.
Chen Scar was even more bloody, and only the eyeballs on his whole face were brown, but he didn't care about this, and loudly commanded the post-war cleanup.
Only Qin Yue didn't move his hand cleanly, and the things he cared about were very different from others.
"Huzi, it's enough for your battalion to have a flag cut, give all the captives to friendly troops, and what we pick up and capture belongs to us."
Jia Yin replied hurriedly before he came, and Qi Sanduo hurriedly spoke: "That master general was caught by Huzi at the risk of death." β
"Don't."
"Huh?"
Jia Yin said: "It's right to listen to Du Yuhou. β
Zhao Shanbao walked over and said angrily: "Everyone else can let it, but this capture can not be done." β
Seeing Qin Yue looking at him, Jia Yin thought for a while and said: "Listen to Du Yuhou, if there is no friendly army to intercept us, how can we have a chance to earn so much credit, not to mention that I can capture the general, Sanduo, you still have a chance to cut the flag?" Don't be careful, one flag cutting is enough, it's better to exchange the captive for some silver and give the brothers more color. β
Xiang Xun was tired, but he was in a very happy mood, only two thousand light soldiers, and he wrapped the dumplings of the elite cavalry of the Shu army.
When the guards came to report that Qin Yue had sent him more than 300 captives, including the main general Jiang Hui, he couldn't help grinning and said, "Even if this kid will come to work, the master has gained a lot this time, and I will give him another two thousand taels of silver." β
"General, this price is too expensive."
"Stupid. The Holy Heavenly Clearing Festival is approaching, and in this situation where the whole court and the middle are counting on a victory, what does it mean for the prisoners of war of the generals of the first army? If it is changed to other rich masters, let alone 2,000, 10,000 is also willing to give. β
"But they left all the armor and stomachs, and only a hundred of them were given to us."
"That's what people deserve, broaden your horizons."
