Kuhehan said to Pi Lixian: "Tong Lifa, since yesterday night, the Wei army has not rushed in again, except for one time when we were not paying attention to sending a small number of cavalry to kill and scatter a lot of livestock. At other times, they only beat gongs and drums in the camp, and did not actually attack our army, and our army's losses were caused after rushing out of the camp, so it can be seen that their purpose is only to constantly harass our army, trying to lead us to their preset ambush location! Besides, we have not been allowed to sleep and rest, from last night to now, it has been a whole day and two nights, and the children are very tired, and many people are almost unable to open their eyes! ”

Pi Lixian pondered for a while, the wind and rain are so strong tonight, does the Wei army really have the ability to brave the storm and kill it? If there is no rain gear, it will be drenched as soon as it comes out of the camp, and it will be cold and shivering all over the body if you can't walk for a few miles, not to mention people, even the horses can't stand it, how can it rain overnight in this case?

Pi Li took a deep breath, he made a decision, and gave an order to Kuhehan: "Kuhehan sent my military order, ordering the second army to stand by in the tents of the front battalion, the fourth army to stand by in the tents on the left, and the sixth battalion to stand by in the tents on the right, ready to meet the invading enemy at any time; Order the other armies to retreat to the rear camp to rest, and the sword will not leave the hand, the clothes will not be removed, and the horse will not leave the saddle! Give me sleep, and I'm not allowed to get up without an order! ”

"Yes!" After bowing down to his chest, he turned around and walked out of the tent to deliver the order in the rain.

Pi Lixian waved his hand to the other generals in the tent: "You all go back and carry out the military order!" ”

The generals saluted and retired.

Pi Lixian and everyone walked out of the tent only to feel tired, he had not slept for two days and two nights, the long march was very physically exhausting, at this time he only felt a wave of tiredness coming, so he leaned on his seat and fell asleep.

On the shores of Hongyan Lake.

Zhao Junsheng took Gao Xu, Cao Jiao and five or six thousand commanders to inspect the camps in the camp, because there was a combat mission, the soldiers went to bed early after eating, and the fixed guards and patrol posts in the camp were normal.

After sending away Gao Xu, Cao Jiao and the others, Zhao Junsheng returned to the tooth tent to untie the waterproof tarpaulin and hang it up, untied the waist knife and put it aside, sat down cross-legged and began to carry the internal force true qi, shock qi and blood to temper the body.

Just after the hour, Li Bao called softly outside the tent: "All the tongs! ”

"What?" Zhao Junsheng stopped cultivating and asked aloud.

"Commander Bai Qianfu is back, asking to see Dutong!"

Zhao Junsheng slowly closed his efforts and opened his eyes, "Let him in!" ”

Bai Jinguang, who was wet all over, walked in, stopped in the middle of the tooth tent, bowed and hugged his fists, and said, "My subordinates meet Dutong!" ”

Zhao Junsheng frowned when he saw him like this and said, "Why did you become a soup chicken?" Didn't Gao Xiu bring you a tarpaulin? ”

"I brought it and distributed it to the soldiers, but my subordinates rushed back in the wind and rain, and accidentally let the wind blow the tarpaulin away, and I couldn't find it for a while in the dark night, so I could only rush back in the rain!"

Zhao Junsheng asked the soldiers next to him to get Bai Jinguang something to eat, and poured him another bowl of wine, "Drink it!" ”

There was a fire in the tooth tent, and despite the fire and a large bowl of wine, Bai Jinguang was still shivering with cold.

Zhao Junsheng saw that he was really freezing like this, so he got up and walked to a box next to him, took out a set of clothes and threw it to him: "Change it and prepare to eat!" ”

"Thank you for that!" Bai Jinguang hesitated for a moment, saw Zhao Junsheng's eyes glaring, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to refuse, and immediately after thanking him, he immediately removed his armor, took off his wet clothes, and changed into dry clothes, so that he was much better.

Zhao Junsheng threw a piece of dry wood into the fire and asked, "Do you know why I called you back?" ”

Gao Xiu had already reminded him when he rushed over, Bai Jinguang knew this, and replied with his head down: "Subordinates, subordinates have terminated the attack and harassment mission without authorization due to heavy rain, please rule the crime!" ”

"Of course, you have to punish the crime, and you have to deal with it severely, do you think you can be spared?" Zhao Junsheng suddenly jumped up and roared loudly.

Bai Jinguang was so frightened that he knelt down and prostrated on the ground.

Zhao Junsheng walked up to him and shouted: "You tell the city commander, what is the military order?" ”

"Military orders and military orders cannot be disobeyed!" Bai Jinguang replied with insufficient confidence.

"Military orders are far more than not being disobeyed, and the implementation of military orders cannot be compromised! The military order is to let you go east, you can't go west; Let you kill, you can't set fire; You will not be allowed to eat or drink for three days, and you will not be able to taste a bite even if you starve to death; Let you move forward, even if there are thousands of cliffs, mountains and fires ahead, you have to move forward and see death as home, understand? ”

Bai Jinguang trembled, "Subordinate, subordinate confession!" ”

Zhao Junsheng blushed, lifted Bai Jinguang up, and asked, "Can you write?" ”

"No, it won't!"

Zhao Junsheng snorted coldly: "If you can't write, you will be a fart commander, and from now on you will become the head of the army!" Find someone to hand you over to read and write, and within three months, you will be able to write letters and write a review book, and when the time comes, you will hand over a unified review book to Bendu, and if you can't hand over the review book, you will wait to be a soldier for a lifetime! You should have been punished for your crimes, so as to set an example. Thinking that you are a first-time offender, and you did not cause heavy losses, you were demoted from a thousand commanders to the head of a soldier, and you were beaten with fifty military sticks! Come on, drag it out, fight! ”

"Thank you for not killing you"

Several pro-soldiers rushed in like wolves and dragged Bai Jinguang to the camp next to him for execution, until his skin was open and his flesh was blurred, and he was stunned and gritted his teeth without saying a word.

Gao Xu, Cao Jiao, and other thousand-commanders, centurions, and generals all had relatives after hearing the news.

In the wee hours of the morning, it was ugly.

The rain is still falling, the wind is still blowing, and the sky is still thundering and lightning from time to time.

The horn of the "Woo Woo Woo" assembly sounded and spread in the wind and rain.

The soldiers in each camp tent opened their eyes one by one, sat up straight, and quickly folded the blankets, rolled them up, tied them with ropes, and carried them on their backs, and draped the tarpaulins over their bodies, tied them, and then took their waist knives and hung them on their waists, put bows and arrows on their backs, took their spears and ran to the camp tents, and led the war horses to the open space in the camp to assemble in formation.

After a cup of tea, Zhao Junsheng took Gao Xu, Cao Jiao and others to ride horses to the front of the army.

The two thousand cavalry were counting the number of people, Zhao Junsheng turned his head to look at the tent of the right guard, and found that only a small number of soldiers and generals of the right guard army were slowly yawning and coming out, and it was estimated that most of them were still wearing clothes and boots in the tent.

Zhao Junsheng shook his head and withdrew his gaze.

"Qi Yu is in charge, the 2,000 cavalry team of 1,086 people are all here, and no one asks for leave!"

"Qi Yu is in charge, all 1,121 members of the 3,000th cavalry have arrived, and no one asks for leave!"

Subsequently, the five commanders of the three battalions of the infantry also came in turn to report the number of people counted, all of them were all present, and none of them were late or asked for leave!

Zhao Junsheng used internal force and said in a loud voice: "Wind and rain can only cause us obstacles and difficulties, but it can't stop our progress and determination to defeat the Rouran people!" No one is more eager to win than we are, because victory means glory and wealth, and we rely on our own ability to earn glory and wealth for ourselves, and we are worthy of it! We fight only for ourselves and our families! ”

"Fight, fight, fight" Everyone was ignited with boiling blood, holding weapons and shouting.

"Dismiss now for breakfast, and leave on time in three quarters!"

The soldiers dispersed, returned to the camp tent, took the dishes and chopsticks, and went to the room to receive food.

Zhao Junsheng instructed Li Bao: "Send someone to talk to Bu Liugu, remind him, let his men and horses move faster, and set off on time, if anyone delays the time to open, military law will be engaged!" ”

"Yes!"

Counting the time in line to receive food, the soldiers did not have a particularly sufficient time to eat, and the first people in line were fine, and those who were last in line were afraid that they would have to gobble up in order to eat and rush to the assembly before the army marched.

When there was only one tea time before Yinshi, Zhao Junsheng sounded the horn of assembly, and the men and horses of the baggage battalion, whether cavalry or infantry, led the horses to the assembly point to complete the whole team.

Zhao Junsheng had already arranged for the supervision team to arrest people outside the assembly point, and those who had not arrived after the assembly time were stopped and controlled.

Seventeen men were escorted to the front of the two armies by the Warlords.

Zhao Junsheng looked at the hourglass that the soldiers next to him were carrying, and said to Bu Liugu: "General Bu Liugu, these are your people, Zhao will give you face and hand them over to you to dispose of!" There are still sixty breaths to reach the time of opening, I hope the general will not delay the hour, otherwise it will be difficult for the prince to explain! ”

Bu Liugu looked at Zhao Junsheng's serious face and was completely different from the friendly attitude of smiling before, and a chill appeared in his heart, looking at Zhao Junsheng like this was definitely not a joke.

"Come on, these seventeen people deliberately delayed when they assembled, delayed the start of the army, and beheaded!"

No matter how these people scolded and begged for mercy, the soldiers who executed them had no mercy, otherwise they would have been pitied.

When the seventeen heads rolled to the ground, many of the generals of the Right Guard were glad that they were only a little earlier than the seventeen men.

"The hour has come, let's go!"

Zhao Junsheng roared, and the 2,000 cavalry took the lead, followed by the 3,000 cavalry and the 1,000 infantry team.

The generals of the Right Guard scolded one by one, they had never fought in such bad weather, and although they were draped in tarpaulins, they still felt terribly cold.

The wind and rain made it impossible for everyone to stop, but instead to speed up the march and make their body warm, and marching too slowly would make the body feel less hot and feel cold.

Braving the wind and rain for an hour, the two troops and horses arrived near the periphery of the Rouran camp, Zhao Junsheng had already sent someone to contact the 1,000th cavalry led by Gao Xiu, and the scout captain also rushed to see Zhao Junsheng to report the situation in the Rouran camp.

"General Bu Liugu, there are two sides, you choose one!"

"Westside!" Step 6 chose the nearest location.

Zhao Junsheng immediately said: "That's good! Gao Xu, you led the first and second thousand infantry teams to attack from the high post, Cao Jiao led the third and fourth thousand infantry teams to attack from the south, and I personally led the second and third thousand cavalry teams to attack from the west! Gao Xiu, you take the 1,000th cavalry team to take charge of the periphery and intercept the fleeing Rouran people! ”
