Chapter 235: The Mo Knife Team is mighty

With the efforts of the soldiers of the whole army, the camp was rebuilt, and by the time the meal was served, the soldiers were tired and hungry one by one.

Judging from the chaos in the camp before, someone should have deliberately demolished this camp, which is a bit unreasonable, and ordinary people will not deliberately tear down this camp when they are full of food and have nothing to do, unless they have ulterior motives.

Zhao Junsheng attacked the camp at night, so he called Pei Jin, Gao Xiu, Gao Xun and Xue Andu to discuss, and several people took turns to be on duty at night, divided into groups of two, and extended the cordon one mile outward, and set up several secret posts at the same time.

Considering that Zhao Junsheng hadn't slept well in the past few days and hadn't let him stay on duty, he had a good night's sleep, but he was still worried, and he hadn't fallen asleep until Zishi, and he slowly fell asleep after Zishi.

After sleeping until dawn, nothing happened, Zhao Junsheng was relieved and had some doubts at the same time, and couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he was too suspicious?

After breakfast, the baggage team left the lakeside and set off to continue to set off back to Jinling.

On the way, Gao Xun rode a horse beside Zhao Junsheng, and when he saw him looking worried, he comforted: "Du Wei, now there is no trace of the Rouran people south of Yin Mountain, Du Wei actually doesn't have to worry about being raided by the Rouran Iron Cavalry, there shouldn't be anything on this road!" ”

Zhao Junsheng shook his head: "It's better to be cautious, it's too late if something really happens!" ”

All the carriages were full of supplies, and Zhao Junsheng couldn't let the team speed up, so he could only rush at the usual speed, so he could also leave some physical strength, and if he was really attacked, he could organize a defense in time.

After noon, the temperature was a little high, and everyone was already a little thirsty and hungry at this time, but they couldn't stop at this time, but this time Zhao Junsheng ordered the team to stop and rest for half an hour and eat some dry food and water.

The soldiers were very surprised, but the military order had been given, so they carried it out, and the team slowly stopped, and the soldiers should go to the toilet, and when they were thirsty from the river, they would nibble on a few mouthfuls of dry food when they were hungry.

Lu Xuanbo walked up to Zhao Junsheng and sat down, took a sip of water and asked, "The young master is worried that someone is ambushing, and letting the brothers rest at this time is to let them accumulate strength?" ”

Zhao Junsheng poured a sip of water and said: "I have to guard against it, the camp by the lake was demolished like that last night, and you didn't see it, I think some people don't want us to spend the night there and continue to move forward, so they will have a chance to make a move; Or maybe we stay and camp by the lake, but don't build a camp because of the trouble, so they will kill them! We've set up the camp, and it's not going to be easy for them to sneak up! They didn't do it last night, and they probably do it today, so let's be careful! ”

Zhao Junsheng also called a few of his subordinates and ordered: "Tell the brothers, be vigilant!" ”

"Understood!"

Soon, the wagon was back on the road, unhurried, and the soldiers were a little nervous after being told one by one.

When Shen, the team came to a low-lying land, there is little rain in the north, this low-lying land has long been dry, the team has to walk less than ten miles from here, people walk here, turn their heads to look left and right, they will find that the distance on the left and right sides seems to be hillsides.

Zhao Junsheng took off the water bag and took a sip, and suddenly heard a large number of shouts and horse hooves from the high ground on the right, and turned his head to see that it was a large number of cavalry rushing from the high ground on the right.

The soldiers panicked when they saw it, this was the first time they had encountered a surprise attack during the escort, how could they not panic?

Zhao Junsheng had already imagined that there might be such a scene in his mind, but when it really appeared, he was also a little flustered, but fortunately, he woke up in time, and immediately shouted: "All the soldiers listened to the order, the horseman and the coachman besieged the carriage in a circle, the archers and crossbowmen were in the middle, the Mo knife team was in front of the car, the spearmen protected the two wings, and the sword and shield soldiers were behind!" ”

Zhao Junsheng's voice was loud enough, and he gave an order in time, which made the soldiers and officers of the baggage battalion have a backbone, and their hearts were a lot more stable, and they quickly set up a formation under the orders of the battalion head and team leaders.

This is also due to the usual emergency assembly training, which has formed an instinct for them, and once the order is given, they quickly complete the formation according to the usual training.

Before the formation of the queue was completely deployed, the cavalry rushed up, and the sound of horses' hooves and vicious roars and killings made the soldiers a little flustered.

Seeing that the attacking enemy troops rushed to within forty or fifty meters, Zhao Junsheng took out his waist knife and waved it forward and shouted: "Archers, crossbows are ready, shoot on your back in sixty steps - release the arrows!" ”

"Whoosh ······" The archers and repeaters who received the order immediately shot forward, and the archers had to take the arrows and reopen their bows after a round of shooting, while the repeaters did not need to, they fired continuously, and the density of the arrows and the firepower output were much higher than those of the archers.

The raiding enemy was a group of cavalry dressed as horse thieves, these people used the same weapons, all of them were scimitars, and when they charged, the team was stricter than the horse thieves, and the ranks were distinct, which obviously had traces of military formation, how could ordinary horse thieves be like this?

Zhao Junsheng could see at a glance that these people must have come from the army, and his heart was tight, and he didn't know if the Modao team could withstand it.

The captain of the Mo knife team is Li Bao, he is standing at the front of the team with a big Mo knife in both hands at this time, and the enemy in front of him is about to rush up, and he immediately shouted: "Steady, stabilize it for me, take a step back, slash!" ”

The hearts of the two hundred Mo Dao were a little calm, but their hearts were even more nervous, and they couldn't help but hold the handle of the knife with both hands.

"Mo Dao Team, enter-" As Li Bao's order was issued, the soldiers of the Mo Dao Team took neat steps, and the bright Mo Dao also moved forward.

"First row, sting—"

The Mo knife hand in the front row roared together and stabbed forward the Mo knife, this Mo knife is two meters and three meters long, and the sword is extremely sharp, although this is only a training knife, the tenacity is not enough, but the sharpness is still qualified.

The enemy cavalry crashed into the Mo knife team like a forest of knives, "poof, poof, poof······" The sound of a large number of knives piercing the horse's belly sounded, and the horses fell to the ground with a miserable neigh, and the enemy cavalry on horseback descended one after another.

At this time, the Mo knife hand in the second row waved the Mo knife, and the enemy knights in the air were cut into two pieces one by one, and a large amount of blood and internal organs were spilled down.

No order is not allowed to stop, this is the iron law of the Mo knife team, under the command of Li Bao, the soldiers of the square formation Mo knife team are stepping forward, while swinging their swords, the soldiers in the front row stabbed directly, the whole team into a row of knife walls to move forward, one by one rushed up the enemy cavalry crashed into it and was divided into two parts.

The archers and crossbowmen in the back were still firing arrows at the enemy cavalry, and when they charged, no one was hit by an arrow and fell off their horses, and those who rushed to the front of the army were seen as two parts.

Two hundred cavalry, for Zhao Junsheng's team is still too little, just a few minutes, two hundred cavalry was killed by the Mo Dao team, and the enemy who had not had time to rush up behind was already frightened by the hellish scene in front of him at this time.

This neat forest of knives, advancing into the wall, was below the corpses that were divided in half, and the blood stained the weeds and the earth, and the remaining dozens of enemy cavalry stopped one after another.

Run! This was the same thought in the minds of the few dozen remaining enemy cavalrymen, their officers were killed by Li Bao in the first place, and the remaining dozens of cavalry completely lost their command.

Where are the remnants of the enemy army still crowded at this time to continue the attack? They all beat their horses and turned around, intending to flee.

Zhao Junsheng grabbed his spear and shouted to the only 100 or so soldiers in the team who could ride horses: "The cavalry will chase after me, the others will guard the baggage, and Gao Xiu will take the command!" ”

These soldiers, who can only ride horses and do not know cavalry tactics, heard Zhao Junsheng's order or rushed out with him, beating horses and chasing the fleeing enemy. Wielding weapons and shouting to kill, the enemy heard that there were pursuers behind them, and they were so frightened that they just wanted to run faster, and they didn't dare to turn back and fight back.

After chasing for a few miles, Zhao Junsheng picked up more than a dozen enemy cavalry with a spear in his hand, and he didn't know whether they were dead or alive, and captured more than a dozen.

Xue Andu brought his men and horses over to see the prisoners, and Zhao Junshengce immediately stepped forward to ask Li Bao: "How are the brothers killed or wounded?" ”

Li Bao, who was covered in blood, looked back and replied, "Twelve are dead, nine are injured, and the others are still in good condition!" ”

Zhao Junsheng rode to the front of the Modao team and looked at it, and said loudly: "In today's battle, no one escaped from the battle, you are not afraid of death, and you bravely killed more than 140 horsemen, and the results are quite fruitful!" If the town garrison army and the right guard army were replaced, they would probably have turned around and fled long ago under the sudden attack, and with today's battle, who would dare to underestimate our baggage team in the future? Pass on my order, the Modao team will reward each person with two catties of meat, ten catties of grain, and one hundred copper coins, and the others will each reward one catty of meat and two catties of grain! ”

The soldiers were suddenly excited, holding their weapons and shouting: "The captain is mighty, the captain is wise!" ”

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "Order, the whole army will camp on the spot, the men will make a fire to make food, and the others will disband and rest!" ”

The soldiers immediately relaxed, everyone found a place to sit down, and when they had rested enough, Zhao Junsheng asked them to clean the battlefield, collect the scattered war horses and the weapons left by the enemy on the ground.

Lu Xuanbo came over and reported to Zhao Junsheng: "Young Master, I have already interrogated the captives, who do you guess these people were sent?" ”
