Chapter 199: I Just Want You to Be Safe!
Seeing that the hundreds of Rouran cavalry were rushing closer and closer to the Wei soldiers on the hill, the color changed one after another, and there was panic in the ranks.
Someone shouted, "The Rouran people want to rush down the hill and launch a cavalry shot at us!" ”
The Wei soldiers were even more panicked, the momentum of the cavalry charge, no one stood on the ground and could deal with it calmly, and even some people had already dropped their tools and stones in their hands and planned to escape.
Zhao Junsheng was trying to kill chickens and monkeys and establish his prestige, otherwise these borrowed garrisons would not listen to the order at all, he rushed down from the fort, drew his sword, and slashed three fleeing garrisons in a row, and his face was splashed with blood.
The other garrisons who were about to flee saw his murderous expression without blinking, and the long knife in his hand was still dripping blood, and they were all shocked and retreated.
"There will be no mercy for those who try to escape! Give Lao Tzu to go back and continue to work, Rouran people can't rush up, and arrows can't shoot you, if someone is injured and dies because of this, Lao Tzu himself cut off his head and gave you his life! ”
The soldiers of the garrison showed frightened expressions one by one, looked at the murderous Zhao Junsheng and looked at each other again, took a few steps back, turned around in twos and threes, and went back to work.
General Rouran, who was leading the charge and planning to rush down the hill in one breath to launch cavalry tactics against the Wei soldiers on the hill, saw that those Wei soldiers were rushing towards them, and he didn't care at all, he was immediately furious, brandished his horse whip desperately, and beat the war horse desperately to speed up the sprint.
The length of the hillside is not long, the hillside is full of traps, wooden stakes and spikes, and the Rouran cavalry did not dare to rush up at all, if they rushed to the bottom of the hill, they could shoot arrows up the hill with the speed of the sprint, and they could also hurt the Wei soldiers who were working.
"Rush for me, speed up, rush over and shoot them!" General Rouran yelled, and the hundreds of Rouran cavalry behind him also galloped desperately when they heard the order.
The Wei soldiers on the hill looked at the Rouran soldiers who were about to rush to the bottom of the hill with a look of horror, and when they were about to launch a cavalry shot, the leading general Rouran and his war horses fell forward together, and behind him, one after another, the Rouran cavalry also fell to the ground, and they and the war horses were planted on the wet grass, setting off a large amount of mud and grass clippings.
The neighing of the horses in pain, the fallen Rouran cavalry, one by one howled in pain, trying to get up, some broke their legs, some fell on their waists, and some fell dizzy.
Twenty or thirty cavalry fell in front of the hillside, and the cavalry behind had no time to slow down, some were tripped by the people and horses in front of them, and some people reacted quickly, and immediately instigated their horses to turn and avoid this disaster.
"Lyre—" The Rouran cavalry that followed finally restrained their horses in time, and stopped in front of the dense meadow with horse pits, and they were unwilling to draw their bows and arrows to shoot at the hill, but the arrows fell on the hillside one after another, and none of them shot on the hill.
"Oh-" The Wei soldiers on the hill jumped up happily when they saw this scene.
Someone raised his middle finger to the Rouran cavalry under the hillside and made insulting movements, some turned around and put their buttocks at the Rouran cavalry under the hillside, and the Rouran cavalry kept shaking their hips, and some people scolded the Rouran people.
"Bastard shit! General Ben is going to hack you to death, hack you to death! You give General Ben a wait, wait! General Rouran got up from the ground and saw that the Wei army on the hill was so rude to him and his Rouran cavalry, and he immediately jumped like thunder, picked up the scimitar from the ground, and shouted at the hill.
"Phew-" The Wei soldiers called him out one after another to disagree.
General Rouran and his cavalry shouted for a while in front of the grass full of traps, but they had no choice but to carry the wounded soldiers away, and they got on their horses and turned around and left.
"Okay—the Rouran people are out!" The Wei soldiers on the hill jumped and cheered.
Zhao Junsheng walked over inappropriately and scolded with a straight face: "What is it called?" You don't have to work, do you? You bastards eat more than pigs, but you're lazier than pigs! Get to work, and if you can't finish it in two days, you'll starve to death you bastards! ”
Some of the soldiers of the town guard were afraid that he would turn around and go to work, and some people did not bird, he showed a disdainful look to him, and his mouth said: "What a big-tailed wolf!" ”
Zhao Junsheng pulled out his legs and rushed over, punching and kicking, causing some people to scream and scatter one after another.
"Brother Junsheng, I have something I want to tell you!" Mulan appeared behind her at some point.
Zhao Jun was angry and panting, put away his fists and feet, and turned around to show a smile: "Mulan, why did you come out?" It's windy outside, so you should stay in the fort and recuperate! By the way, what do you want to tell me? ”
Hua Mulan turned around and walked towards the castle, and Zhao Junsheng quickened his pace, following her, and the two walked side by side.
"Brother Junsheng, the Rouran people must have ulterior motives or conspiracy, but unfortunately we got too little news, we don't know anything about the Rouran people, and they have come to attack us again and again, we can't prevent it, this feeling is very bad, I want to take someone to the vicinity of Shengle City to investigate and see if we can find out their intentions!"
When Zhao Junsheng heard it, how could he agree? He reacted violently: "No, you have injuries on your body, how can you go out and take risks?" Even if it doesn't hurt me, you won't be allowed to go! It's too dangerous to do this, and if you go north after this hill, you may encounter the Rouran Scouts and Patrol Rangers at any time, this matter is absolutely not okay, there is no room for negotiation, I will definitely not agree! ”
Hua Mulan seemed to have known that Zhao Junsheng would be this reaction, she was silent for a moment, stood still, turned to look at him, and said, "If we can't figure out the intentions of the Rouran people, even if we build this city wall stronger, what's the use?" Once the imperial court is defeated in the battle against Rouran, how can we be spared? Brother Junsheng, we can't just think about our own safety, only when Da Wei is safe, can we be safe! Now that we are in a situation where we are passively beaten, this feeling makes me very uncomfortable and even restless! You are also the one who leads the troops, you should understand my feelings, and now that I am the lord of this Nantian Fort, I am responsible for the lives of everyone here, and I can't let them die an unknown death one day! ”
Zhao Junsheng really didn't know what to say, was it because Mulan's ideological consciousness was too high, or was he too selfish? He took a deep breath and stretched out his hands and put them on Mulan's shoulders: "Mulan, I understand your worries and foresight, but these things are not something that you should consider as a small team leader, this is what the emperor, the princes of the imperial court and the commander of the Jinling camp, General Yasuhara, should consider, you and your team of less than a hundred people can't control the whole situation, understand?" ”
"You can say that I am irresponsible, you can say that I am greedy for life and afraid of death, and you can also say that I have no ambitions! That's right, I'm such a person, I don't want anything, as long as you can be safe, I just want a wife and children, a hot kang life, is this wrong? If you're my fiancée, I'll have to take care of you and protect you from accidents! ”
"You······ You're right! With tears in her eyes, Mulan said a word, turned around and walked away quickly.
"Mulan, Mulan······" Zhao Junsheng chased after him, no matter how he called Mulan, he didn't look back, walked into the room, locked himself in the room, and didn't come out.
Zhao Junsheng walked out of the fortress with a gloomy expression, stood on the hill and looked at the mountains hidden in the haze in the north.
Lu Xuanbo walked over and stood beside him for a long time and said, "Young master, you shouldn't lose your temper at the flower team master, yes, young master, you are not wrong, it's just that the starting point is different!" ”
"I know!"
Zhao Junsheng let out a breath and said: "Old Lu, I plan to take a few people to the north to reconnoiter the military situation of the Rouran people, Mulan wants to go, I can understand her, but I can't let her go!" You stay, your martial arts are not suitable for fighting in a wide and open space, this battlefield is full of bows, horses, spears, big swords, and a big move, which will kill people, you will not play much role if you go, stay and help me protect Mulan, take care of our soldiers! This matter is so decided, go and call Gao Xiu and Xue An, I have something to tell him! ”
"Young Master······"
Zhao Junsheng waved his hand with a firm expression.
Lu Xuanbo hugged his fists and retreated.
Soon, Gao Xiu and Xue An both walked over with the hilt of their swords in their hands and stood up and clenched their fists: "Duwei, are you looking for your subordinates?" ”
"Zihao, Xiuda, I decided to take a few people to explore the details of the Rouran people, I don't know if you dare to go north with me?" Zhao Junsheng turned around as he spoke.
Gao Xiu and Xue An both glanced at each other, and Gao Xiu replied with a deep fist: "It's nothing more than a fight when you encounter Rouran's detectives, how can you not dare to go to your subordinates?" Don't know when to go? ”
"An hour later!"
Xue Andu also clenched his fists and said: "Du Wei and Senior Brother are going, if I don't go, wouldn't it be too lonely to stay?" ”
"Then good Xiuda, you go and ask the man to prepare three days of dry food for the three of us, Zihao, you go and prepare bows, horses, arrows, tents, and blankets to protect against the cold!"
"Command!" The two of them clenched their fists and retreated.
An hour later, three people and six horses slowly walked down the hillside, Zhao Junsheng turned over his horse and looked back at the hill, and saw Lu Xuanbo and the others still standing on the hill, looking at the three of them, he waved his hand, whipped the horse, and galloped forward.
At night, Hua Mulan walked out of the room with an oil lamp and met Hua Hai Hua Hai with a fist and said, "The team leader has dinner, will I bring you the room?" ”
"You don't have to go to the camp together to eat with your brothers!"
The two of them came out of the fort and walked down the hillside to the camp at the foot of the south hillside, where the soldiers of the town guard, the baggage soldiers and the soldiers of the Nantian Fort gathered together in twos and threes, holding rice bowls and chatting while eating, and the smell of steaming food emanated from afar.
Hua Mulan's eyes swept around, but she didn't see Zhao Junsheng and asked Hua Hai: "Have you seen Zhao Duwei?" ”
"No!"
Hua Mulan fetched food at the man's place, searched around the camp, and did not find Zhao Junsheng, but ran into Lu Xuanbo.
"I've seen the Flower Team Master!"
Hua Mulan nodded and asked, "What about Lao Lu, the captain of your family?" ”
Lu Xuanbo hesitated, "He····· He took two men to the north, and said it was ······ said that he was going to investigate the military situation of the Rouran people."
"What?" The rice bowl in Mulan's hand fell to the ground, and the whole person's face turned pale, and her body was shaky.
"Flower Team Leader ······"
