Chapter Thirty-Eight: One Will Succeed and Ten Thousand Bones Will Dry (2nd Update)
The battle just now, in Guan Zhuofan's feelings, seemed to be just a blink of an eye, but the danger contained in it only now made him feel afraid. Such an encounter is completely unprepared, and if you are not careful, the situation will become out of control.
Fortunately, he survived, he thought. And his good impression of Ding Shijie has also been further deepened, not to mention the unchaotic performance just now, just the sentence "The fourth sentinel guards the thousand presidents!" It is enough to make Guan Zhuofan feel that he has won my heart - who said that he will not be an official?
However, there is still a huge question that remains unresolved: where did they go in Alhatu? Was he temporarily cowardly and broke the appointment, or was he actually poisoned by horse bandits?
The answer to this question was soon found, and I saw six or seven knights in the distance, hesitantly approaching this side, and, "green robe masked"!
It turned out that Alhatu and Lao Cai did not come here in advance to ambush, but followed Zhaoxiang's car all the way and followed from afar. Seeing that he was about to arrive at the predetermined location and was about to launch, he found a large number of horse bandits in the distance.
This time, I didn't dare to move. And when Guan Zhuofan's soldiers and horse bandits opened, they didn't dare to come out even more - this dress was too embarrassing, if they rushed forward to help in the battle, the swords and arrows would not be long-sighted, and there was a danger of burning with the horse bandits.
Guan Zhuofan guessed about this situation, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart: Come over now, what can you do? He breathed a sigh of relief and shouted loudly: "The officers and soldiers suppress the bandits!" Stay away from irrelevant people! ”
Alhatu and Lao Cai were also very alert, and when they heard Guan Zhuofan shouting, they already understood what he meant, turned their horses' heads, and ran back in the direction of Rehe.
When this question was solved, Guan Zhuofan's heart was relieved, and he began to clean up the situation in front of him. He first ordered someone to check his own injuries, and then ordered someone to check whether the corpses left by the horse bandits were alive. And he himself took Túrin and a few other personal soldiers and galloped towards the cart parked in the distance.
The three horses accompanying the cart, together with the battle, fled without a trace, only a long entourage who was originally sitting in front of the car and the coachman squatted beside the carriage and hugged his hair trembling. It is said that according to the rules of the road, Yujian robs, as long as these subordinates honestly hold their heads and squat, the robbers will not harm them. Guan Zhuofan has also heard this statement, whether it is true or not, only God knows.
"Get up, we are officers!" Túrin didn't know who was in the car, but he couldn't see them like that. In his opinion, the slave who can't protect his master in danger is really embarrassed to the extreme, so he is unceremonious in his words: "Who is in the car?" ”
"Yes...... It's my lord, and I'm waiting for you...... According to the Hou Ye. When the chief heard that it was an official soldier, his face turned a little color, and he said tremblingly.
Guan Zhuofan gave Thurin a look, and Thurin took two steps forward and picked up the thick cotton curtain on the car. In the car, sure enough, there was a person in the official uniform of the Nine Pythons, in his thirties, with a sallow complexion, his body shrunk into a ball, and he looked at them in horror.
All the hard work, for this moment! Guan Zhuo Fan Lisuo dismounted, please go down.
"Guan Zhuofan of the Infantry Yamen Xiying Horse Team, see Hou Ye!"
*
*
It was not long before the three sentinels who had pursued the bandits returned, and the result of the pursuit was that they did not catch up.
It's not surprising that it didn't catch up. The reason why the horse bandits dare to run rampant is that the biggest battle is the good horses from outside the mouth, which are well fed and exercised, and often have two horses for one person, and are driven in turn, so they come and go like the wind when they fight, compared to Guan Zhuofan's Xiying horse team, after all, it is still a step higher.
However, it is not true to say that they have not caught up at all. There are horse bandits who are wounded by arrows and gradually can't run and have no time to change horses, or horse bandits who are wounded by arrows and can't support themselves, fall into the hands of officials and soldiers, and they will be beheaded for a total of five levels. On the main road, there were nine horse bandits who were killed by shooting with the officers and soldiers, and two others were wounded and taken prisoner.
There was also bad news - a soldier named Sochido at the second post was on the way to pursue the bandits, and a stray arrow shot straight into the throat for the horse bandit to return was almost dead on the spot.
The death of this soldier had a great impact on Guan Zhuofan's psychology. Because of the bureau he set up, he finally killed a person, which Guan Zhuofan didn't dare to imagine when he was a student. For the first time, he realized that the history he was engaged in was both real and cruel. The so-called "one will succeed in ten thousand bones", this is the first "dry bone" sacrificed for his "success", and this dry bone, but I don't know whose "spring boudoir dreamer" it is?
Because of this heaviness in his heart, Guan Zhuofan's sullenness formed a sharp contrast with the jubilant mood of his subordinates around him. Ding Shijie thought that Guan Zhuofan was dissatisfied with the results of the pursuit, and for a while, he didn't dare to come forward to talk to him again.
Zhaoxiang's car was naturally sent back to Rehe first, and in order to show his grandeur, Guan Zhuofan sent a sentry to escort him. The two living horse bandits, tied to their horses, sent them directly to the general soldiers of the infantry army to command the yamen, to see if they could find traces of a large number of horse bandits on their bodies.
The rest of the matter is to pull out the team and return to the camp, first give a little compensation to the casualties, and the formal pension, of course, will have to wait for the imperial court to make it. Another thing is that it is necessary to write a battle report -- Guan Zhuofan is only a sixth-grade person, and he is far from having the power to go straight up. This battle report should be sent to Fu Cheng'an first, and then Fu Cheng'an should report it to the chief soldier of the infantry army's yamen, write it into a fold, and submit it to the imperial court.
The one who wrote the battle report was the same clerk who wrote the banquet invitation for him last time. Guan Zhuofan specially reminded that Daniel Zhang and the other 100 people on duty in the battalion should be written into it. Of course, this was a false report, but according to the practice of the time, as long as the battle was won, no one would hold it accountable.
Daniel Zhang, who was standing on the side, naturally couldn't help but express something, and respectfully invited an An: "Xiexie boss cultivation!" ”
Xu Shuwen's writing is good, and the manuscript has been prepared in a moment and a half, and it is submitted to Guan Zhuofan for review. Guan Zhuofan took it, only read a few lines, and then laughed. At most, 70 horse bandits were doubled by him and turned into "150 people", and a total of 14 horse bandits were killed. When I saw the paragraph describing myself again, I couldn't help laughing.
“…… Guan Qianzong Zhuo Fan was the first to release the arrow and shoot the four horse bandits. Guan Qian shouted 'kill the enemy', led the army to invite the attack, fought with white blades, and then killed the two horse bandits...... "A living heroic image, jumped on the paper.
"Okay, okay." Guan Zhuofan couldn't hold back a laugh and said perfunctorily.
Xu Wenwen heard Guan Qian praise himself for his good writing, and he smiled. In the back, he also added a sum to himself as usual, since Mr. Qian praised it, then his own merit can naturally be safe.
"It's good, but it's a pity that it can't be used." Guan Zhuofan handed the manuscript back to Xu Shushu and said regretfully, "I have to rewrite it." ”
Xu Wenshu's heart hung again, thinking, could it be that he didn't write enough credit for Guan Qianzong? Or does Guan Qian always dislike exaggeration, and wants me to report it according to the truth?
But since the battle has been won, how can there be any reason not to make false reports? Most of the time Guan Qian is too honest and honest, and he doesn't know the rules in the army. So he cautiously accompanied the smiling face and said: "Mr. Qian, let's report one hundred and fifty horse bandits, which is already considered a few, according to reason, it should be reported three hundred and four hundred is ......."
"That's not what I mean." Guan Zhuofan saw that he would be wrong, and he was amused in his heart, but he said with a straight face: "The first merit of this battle is naturally Fuzuo's good scheduling, and his credit must be written down fully and thoroughly!" ”
Fukuzo collar? Several people in the tent showed unbelievable expressions - in the Xiying horse team, Fu Chengan was already the object of the anger of people and gods, Guan Qian was not crazy, and gave him this credit for no reason?
"Needless to say, just write as I tell you!" Guan Zhuofan waved his hand and stopped everyone's words. He knew what they were thinking, but they didn't know what he was thinking.
Fu Chengan, although I can't get you down, I can at least carry you up.
