After two days and two nights, the soldiers of the pioneer battalion were physically and mentally exhausted, and they had already reached the end of their crossbows; At present, as soon as the strength of the great tonic wine passed, as if even the soul had been drained away, the feet stumbled, the brain swirled, the body could not even lift the slightest strength, the cold sweat could not stop flowing, everyone was weak as if they had just been fished up from the river, and wanted to go back to the camp as soon as possible to rest......

On the city wall of Hedong, Zhou Changan, who also had black circles under his eyes, pointed to the enemy formation that was gradually becoming lively and asked:

"Jia Lao, between you, have the fighters matured?"

"Hmm...... After staying up for two days and two nights, and venting the last bit of anger with the strength of wine, as long as this group of Qin soldiers returned to the camp, they should immediately fall asleep to death, and there was no combat effectiveness at all; However, the two thousand black riders are still unscathed, how are you going to solve this problem? ”

"Although the Qin army's black cavalry is well-equipped, the number is really small, with my 200,000 Northern Yan army, ......"

Before Zhou Changan proudly patted his chest and finished speaking, Jia Lao Liu immediately stretched out his thumb and praised:

"Okay, it's really the Zhou family's species, and the heart is vicious! Do you have any other way? ”

“…… It's out ...... for the time being."

"Zhou Xiaosi, Zhou Xiaosi, use human life to fill in, this is also a way? Just this lack of moral idea, fools know it, and you still use it, do you want to? Prepare your soldiers, and wait behind the gates; When there is chaos in the enemy camp, when the fighters are ripe! ”

At present, the main village of the Qin army has risen with smoke; And those sturdy cavalry men also walked out of the camp in groups of three or five. They looked at their comrades in the vanguard army who had already lost their appearance, all of them had a smile on the corner of their mouths, and there was a slight disdain in their pitying eyes.

After a quiet breakfast, the group of uncles went straight to the Yingbei Racecourse......

Eight feet away from the racecourse, they were so sick with a strong stench that they hated that they had eaten too much breakfast, and their throats were torn. Although the smell is too strong, they can also distinguish that it is the most familiar smell of horse manure, but the concentration has increased by leaps and bounds, and it pierces people's eyes red, and large teardrops also come out of their eyes, and they can't open their eyes at all!

It wasn't until they gradually got used to the harsh air that they forcibly opened their eyes and looked privately looking for their beloved war horses, only to see that in the simple fence, all the good horses in the Western Regions were lying on the ground, and there were pools of thin horse manure around them!

"Four Treasures...... Four Treasures! ”

Niu Zhao, the captain of the black cavalry, is the number one horse idiot, he ranks third in the family, so he gave his beloved war horse the name of "Four Treasures", which shows that his feelings for it are deep and sincere. Seeing that his fourth brother "collapsed", his heart suddenly felt anxious, and he could no longer care about the stench, so he ran over quickly, hugged the huge horse's head on the ground, and carefully explored the specific situation of the "four treasures".

The rest of the knights also quickly found their favorite horses; There is no bowl, and each horse is like the Four Treasures: there is no obvious external injury to the body, but the breathing has begun to be disordered, and it is definitely impossible to stand up!

When it comes to the familiarity with horses, Qin Jun's black horsemen are not laymen; Just by the surrounding pools of wet horse manure that does not clump and the pungent smell in the air, it is clear that the war horses have collectively eaten their stomachs, or they have been mixed with a large number of crotons in the black bean feed!

The black horse is known as the spear of the Qin army, whether it is a person or a horse, all of them are Zhou Changfeng's heart and liver treasures, and the gold is extremely expensive. On weekdays, the feeding and cleaning of war horses did not need to be done by the knights themselves, and they were always taken care of by the people and auxiliaries.

Raising horses is not a rough job that everyone can do; Often, a large family hires a good groom, and the salary is at least the same as that of the second housekeeper. Because the digestive system of horses is very fragile and cannot ruminate like cattle and sheep, the manger is fed as little as six times a day and as much as ten times a day; The ratio of grain to forage, dry to fresh feed, needs to be adjusted according to the physical condition of the horse at any time, and it varies from year to year; Not counting fresh grass and grain, the annual hay consumption of only one horse is about 4,000 catties, which is not a huge expense that a well-off family can afford.

Those "human teeth" that still existed in the rivers and lakes of Nankang many years ago, there is another explanation for the words "Guangling thin horse": because the market price of a good horse is definitely more expensive than a woman with both color and art; Therefore, the local "pawn girl" will be named the word "thin horse", implying that the market situation of "thin horse" is adjusted with the price of horses.

Of course, that's just the price of an average horse; The war horses selected by the Qin army's black cavalry are all pure-blooded big-eating horses; The sophistication of diet and daily life will naturally be on a higher level!

The boy has two treasures, a BMW under his crotch and a fast knife in his palm. But no matter how good this weapon is, it is a dead object after all; And no matter how bad the horse breed is, it is still a living creature! People are emotional creatures, and after a long time together, they have experienced several bloody battles together, and the beast with the fur on the crotch has become a friend of life and death, which is nothing new in any cavalry team.

Niu Zhao, the black rider, hurriedly gave the four treasures that had collapsed the shelf, carefully examined them, and found that there was no fear of life; The agitated emotions have eased slightly. He stood up with red circles in his eyes, immediately drew the sagile saber at his waist, and shouted loudly:

"Brothers, let's go and settle accounts with those heartless coolies!"

The hard-working auxiliary captain Bai Datou looked at a group of heavily armored cavalrymen with a physique as strong as an iron tower, wrapped in monstrous anger that seemed to be visible to the naked eye, and walked towards him with straight eyebrows. For a while, Bai Datou couldn't figure out where he had provoked the Black Cavalry; I only felt that my knees were weak, and the whole person leaned back and sat on the pile of wood......

"Big white head!"

"Niu Niu ...... Bull rider ......"

"Who was in charge of taking care of the horses last night?"

"I ...... I don't...... I don't know...... Wow! You're all going to kill me! I'm not going to do this errand...... I went home to raise pigs... You're going to eat human flesh alive...... I can't live......"

Bai Datou's tense spirit all day long was finally frightened and collapsed by the black cavalry! He was lying on the barbed wood, rolling and splashing wildly! The wooden thorns pierced his fat face, which was still bruised, and he looked like a shrew who had lost her mind!

After only asking two sentences, the other party began to splash and roll! This sudden result also frightened Niu Zhao, who was originally angry! He thought about it again: yes, I went to the horse ring before going to bed yesterday, and the war horse was still good at that time; And the people and auxiliary soldiers are not responsible for the night, so the war horse eats bad stomach at night and causes the shelf to collapse, what can it have to do with the white head of the people?

"Alright, okay, big head! We don't mean anything else, we just came to ask if you had anyone who went to the racecourse yesterday to watch the night; If you don't, say no, why are you crying, a big man? …… Don't howl, don't howl, can't we just ask? Here we go...... Who, remember to pluck out the wooden thorns on your face for your white heads, it looks ugly enough......"

Niu Zhao, who was somewhat weak-hearted, took the other brothers and went straight to the tent; But before he could go twenty steps away, he heard a rapid drum sound from the direction of Hedong City behind him......

"Phew! This group of faceless and skinless dogs, the old pumpkin's account hasn't been settled with them, and they actually sent it to the door by themselves? The trap has already been filled, why are they fighting with our black horsemen? Hmph, I don't know if I'm alive or dead! Brothers, listen to the order of a certain general, and put on your horse...... Oh yes, Ma ......"

Niu Zhao elongated the tail of the word "horse", and there was never a result of "horse"; Extremely embarrassed, he could only "hum" heavily and hastily finished, and then strode to the door of Weida's handsome tent:

"Black Cavalry Commander Niu Zhao, ask to see General Wei!"

“……”

shouted three times in succession, but there was still no answer in the tent; Niu Zhao carefully opened the curtain and saw Wei Da, a vanguard general dressed in a military uniform and with a sword at his waist, kneeling in front of the handsome case, snoring slightly......

"Wei Shuai...... Wei Shuai? Wake up! There is an enemy attack! ”

Pushed by Niu Zhao, Veda's snoring also stopped suddenly; Then he smacked his lips, didn't even open his eyelids, and scolded vaguely:

"White head, get out of here! Lao Tzu slaughtered your heart, and you have ......"

"Wei Shuai...... I'm Niu Zhao! Black Riding Bull Zhao! The Northern Yan Army has attacked, and now they are all killed at the gate of the camp! ”

"I've seen a certain Xuanhua big axe...... Ay? Bull rider? What are you doing here? Have you eaten it? ”

"What do I eat! Wei Shuai, we also know that you have worked hard, but there are some things you still have to care about. Yesterday, the brothers of your pioneer battalion were on duty at night, and I don't know which blind guy fed all our black horses to the stomach, and now thousands of horses and horses are lying on the ground on all sides! You don't know how expensive our war horses are......"

"Wait, wait, wait...... You let me slow down...... As soon as you entered the account just now, you said that the Northern Yan Army was attacking in a big way, and it had already hit our gate, right? Now it is said that the war horses are sparse and the shelves have collapsed. How about the horse, let's talk about it later, who is the Northern Yan Army in front of the battle? ”

"Hey, didn't I see that you slept too hard and wanted to give you a boost? The Northern Yan Army also beat the war drums, and it is not the first time, so let him go! Besides, with a hundred of their guts, they dare to come and rob the camp in broad daylight? ”

What is a prophecy, this is called a prophecy! Since the white head was lying on the wood, splashing and spitting, Zhou Changan had already issued a military order to go out of the city and rob the camp; And this drum beat together also officially announced the first comprehensive counterattack of the Northern Yan Army, which has kicked off!

Zhou Changan stood on top of the city tower, looking at the chaos in front of the enemy camp, and finally figured out Jia Laoliu's conspiracy:

Dare to love the story of "the wolf is coming", and you can tell it backwards!
