Volume 1 The Western Expedition to Guanshan Golden Drum Yongdu from the Ancient King Center One hundred and sixty sections to see who arrives first
As Chen's team approached, the surroundings gradually quieted down, except for a small village on the road, there was some faint movement, and even the birds and birds seemed to rise and fall in the distance.
Latent was a military system in Eastern Xia.
As nomadic hunters, there is not a single tribe that is not good at camouflage and lurking, but that is only on a small scale, thanks to the hunters' experience in hunting. The Eastern Xia, on the other hand, came from tactical concealment and discipline. They remained motionless, as if they had disappeared, and in order to cover up the freak of frightening, and even some of the military government deliberately sprinkled some food, and a bird fell on the back of a soldier's head, and his buttocks were back, aimed at the soldier's neck, and pecked, although the soldier shrunk his neck vigorously, there was still a thread of blood along the gap between the helmet and the armor that penetrated his collar.
The scorching sunlight and the high ground temperature had made the soldier sweaty, and with each peck, the soldier's convulsive face could be seen, but he still insisted on not moving, and the soldiers lurking opposite him began to be anxious, but with his patience, his eyes gradually showed admiration.
In fact, they would not lurk to such an extent, even if they gently drove away this bird, they would not attract Chen Jun's attention because of the startling flight of a bird.
However, in the big competition every year, the military government has to make achievements, and the result of the competition is that each family is stricter than the other, otherwise it will be a stepping stone for others.
And the soldiers are proud of it.
Chen Jun was closer.
The faster they are in the first half of the reinforcements, the more they can rest in the second half of the day, and the more they can withstand the enemy's return blows.
In the afternoon, he ran to 170 miles, and after an hour, it was another 50 miles, and when it was dark, he might have marched more than 300 miles, and the results were remarkable, but the soldiers were also very numb.
If they gallop on the grassland, the meadow is vast, the sky is blue, the horses are jubilant, and the song can be shouted by the voice, and they will not feel it for a day, but when they are driving, their minds will be wooden. As the march lasts longer, the lower the vigilance, and even more so the cavalry as scouts, they exceed the main force for more than 10 miles, run with smoke in their throats, rush over, look ahead, when there is a camp built by the Eastern Xia army, coil for a while, because the strength of the people and horses is insufficient, as soon as they show their faces, they turn around and go back to report.
The forward generals were also taken aback.
He asked for the number of people, and while reporting it, he relied on more and more people to come immediately and run over to check. It was the other end of the open land within a radius of more than ten miles, and when I ran up, there were Dongxia soldiers who came up to fight, and the two sides fought more and more fiercely, and the Dongxia soldiers retracted and defended the camp.
The forward generals soon received orders to attack.
He moved his men into the open field, intending to stop first and then organize an attack.
The horse team marching behind also quickly came up, taking advantage of this open land and using the sniper of the Eastern Xia soldiers to rest.
More and more people came up, and Shangzhu Guobu Gu Xuanyang also came up, he wanted to meet with the generals of all walks of life, found a small woodland, quickly set the location there, and sent the guards to circle it, so as to leave it for the generals to discuss the military aircraft. He was not surprised by a small Dongxia army in the middle of the road, blocking the Chen army from returning to help, the more there is, the more reassuring it is.
Seeing that the striker had organized people to attack, the two sides fought loudly, anxiously tapping on their riding boots and walking back and forth on the edge of the forest.
It didn't take much effort, and a few more generals came up.
Li Jingsi also came up.
Bugu Xuanyang's concept of governing the country and Li Jingsi's patrol duties are naturally close to each other, so he is closer to Li Jingsi, and he grabbed Li Jingsi's arm and said, "You will also bring someone up later." I am afraid that if they do not make any efforts, they will be slow to fight down and delay the military aircraft. ”
Li Jingsi nodded.
None of the hunters found anything, and he didn't find anything suspicious, just a little uneasy.
The two men talked for a few words and agreed: "The army is marching too fast, and we can take advantage of this battle to rest and recuperate here." ”
There were more and more men and horses coming up in the back, and the open land was wide, and the cavalry gradually occupied the past.
The area grew larger and larger, and at some point, a soldier found a "ghost-faced wolf" running on a dirt slope and screamed in surprise.
The ghost-faced wolf is a white-faced wolf, blue and black, a demonic white face, which is intimidating, this kind of wolf is not common, and is always considered a bad omen.
As soon as the soldier shouted, many soldiers noticed.
There are already tens of thousands of horses stationed on the open ground, this wolf, whether it is a ghost-faced wolf or not, why is it not afraid to run on the earth cliff?
Could this be a great bad omen?
Many people had cold backs, so they called their centurions and said, "Hundred households." Look at it. There's a ghost-faced wolf there, and he doesn't shy away from people at all. ”
The centurion's face twitched violently, and after a moment, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Shoot it." Shoot it. ”
An arrow was shot over, but because it was far away, it was not shot.
But the accident happened, and the wolf began to hate the other party, bared its teeth and mouth, pulled its back open, and barked "Wang", and then it barked "Wang".
Is it a dog?
It turned out to be a dog?
The soldiers of the Chen army all breathed a sigh of relief.
But then, the centurion was strange.
How can there be a dog that is not afraid of people in this deserted place? And it is by no means a wild dog, because in the wasteland, wild dogs mate with wolves a lot, and their barks are also poignant.
He was about to send someone up to see it.
This is a trained military dog, and the soldiers of Dongxia have already understood the scale of Chen's army coming up by means of dog eyes and dog barking, and even the locations where they are stationed.
There were horsebacks, and there were more than a dozen Chen soldiers running up to catch dogs.
When the dog ran, they pushed it up, and suddenly, they found that the black pressure was pressed against a group of men and horses, flat and even, densely lying on the ground.
Because the dog was discovered, the centaur had been released from lurking, and when they said they stood up, they stood up, and one by one the war horses stood up on their knees.
Several Chen soldiers were so stunned that they forgot to run back and shout back.
An Eastern Xia general was less than thirty paces away from them and smiled at them.
With this smile, more than a dozen Chen soldiers didn't say a word, jumping off the horse, and kneeling with their weapons raised.
It's not that they're weak, they're confused.
Thirty steps, can you outrun the strong bow of Eastern Xia?
The general came up, but he said, "Didn't come on a horse, can you run?" Walk. Follow, go to war. Count you as a battlefield uprising. ”
A small group of Chen soldiers exchanged glances with each other, and the ghosts and gods followed.
The army outflanked and moved like a black line, and before they arrived, Chen's army was already in confusion.
The army that cut off their rear route moved first, cutting off the last of their men and horses, and blocking the incoming soldiers and horses into this open field.
Suddenly shouting and killing, the Dongxia soldiers seemed to appear out of thin air, lined up to rush into formation, and attacked Chen's ** team.
Chen Guo was going to rest here for a while, the soldiers dismounted and dismounted, and the armor was covered, busy drinking water and eating dry food, feeding the war horses, putting on water, and soothing their emotions.
The sudden arrival of the Eastern Xia soldiers and the earth-shattering shouts of killing shocked them all.
In an instant, people and horses were running everywhere.
Li Jingsi was going to attack Dongxia Xiaozhai as a reserve army, in addition to him and the forward army, with the Dongxia cavalry blooming on all sides, the entire open land over 10,000 cavalry like disintegrating snowflakes, either fleeing or surrendering, this elite army of Chen was really frightened.
He suddenly remembered Bugu Xuanyang, shouted, and led people to the woods, wanting to pick up Bugu Xuanyang and some generals, but two hundred steps away, he saw the generals running out of the woods like scattering, looking not to find his own army, but to be killed, and then, he saw with his own eyes a Dongxia general carrying a bloody human head, how to look like Bugu Xuanyang.
This is an important minister who is known as the talent of the auxiliary in Chen State, but he was killed by the Eastern Xia soldiers who were in ambush.
Li Jingsi couldn't say weird in his heart.
Except for his wife and respected father-in-law, he didn't care much about the deaths of others, and Chen Guo's defeat was actually what he thought.
But this step of Gu Xuanyang's death made him feel different from usual.
Maybe he also stepped into the woods just now, and he didn't know where he could come from, but the Dongxia soldiers were able to come out and frightened him.
He tilted his head sideways and stared at it as if he were stunned.
The Dongxia generals led dozens of Dongxia soldiers to catch up with some Chen generals who couldn't run and slashed, and in an instant, three or five were pressed down, and I don't know what it was cut into.
When a general of the Chen State saw him Li Jingsi, he actually fled to him, and fifty steps away, he stretched out his hand and shouted, "Help me." ”
But a feathered arrow shot him from behind.
The troops behind him were about to move, and Li Jingsi waved his spear to stop them and said, "Defeated." It's miserable. How is this possible, this is simply impossible. ”
After a moment, he said to himself again: "This is a dream, right? Bugu Xuanyang was killed? An unknown Dongxia soldier running around with his head? ”
Because his army did not seem to be in chaos, Dongxia attached great importance to it, and came up with men and horses, and did not attack him, but called out to the brother troops and surrounded them together.
The soldiers looked left and right, panicked, and gradually leaned their backs to the inside and their faces to the outside, while Li Jingsi, as if he had a magic barrier, was still stupid.
Finally, he was reminded: "General." Don't be stunned. Let's kill it. ”
Li Jingsi slowly put the gun down.
He has seen the combat effectiveness of the Eastern Xia soldiers, and now the 30,000 cavalry, most of them are scattered, the Eastern Xia soldiers will inevitably take advantage of the situation to kill back to Wang He, once they return to the division with the momentum of victory, the last part of the main force of Chen will inevitably be defeated, and if they are defeated, there will be no cohesion at all.
He suddenly roared: "Li Jingsi is on the ground." Can the king of Dongxia dare to see it? ”
The Dongxia soldiers didn't want the king to see the general, the armor was puzzled, the weapon was in his hand, he wanted to see the king, and the king was a hero, if the king had to come up and encounter danger, what should I do?
Ma Er Cai happened to be around, recognized him, pointed with his hand, and yelled: "It's him." He was the one who defeated me and ruined five hundred of our soldiers. ”
Tooth Pig carried the head of Gu Xuanyang in his hand, and couldn't help but scold him: "It's like you can't fight it, you go back and call a large group of people, and now you recognize him as soon as you recognize it, let us go up and beat you up?" If I were you, I would challenge without saying a word, lest my dignity not come back. ”
As soon as he said this, Ma Ercai roared and drove his horse forward.
He was holding a mace, and the sight of his subordinates dying floated in front of him, and he couldn't help but tremble, and rushed forward with angry roars.
Li Jingsi smiled instead.
He didn't expect that after being surrounded, Dongxia launched a heads-up instead, and let his subordinates be defeated.
He waved a circle of spears and shouted, "Come on." I will fight you. But you're going to lose. You must promise me to go and find me the king of Dongxia. As for him seeing me and not seeing me, it is up to him whether he dares or not. ”
Ma Er Cai Sheng grabbed the momentum and replied to him: "According to what you said." ”
It went up again, and the mace danced.
The two horses staggered quickly, sometimes rushing at each other, sometimes fighting each other, and their weapons smashing each other. Suddenly, Li Sijing shook his gun, and for some reason, like an illusion, everyone felt that the head of his spear could not be thought of trembling, swinging on the back hand of the horse's ear, and the mace was picked off.
Again, Li Jingsi's spear was lit on the chin of the horse's ear.
Li Jingsi was still urging him to fulfill the contract, and heard someone clapping his hands, and a child's voice said, "Abba." He's really good marksmanship. You forgive him. Let him teach me marksmanship. ”
As soon as Li Jingsi looked up, he saw a young man who was almost indistinguishable from the ordinary low-level generals of Dongxia who was receiving cheers, raised a hand to signal, and slowly came up.
Li Jingsi was a little resentful.
For some reason, he admired many generals who defeated Chen Guo, but he didn't have a good impression of Dia Bird. Maybe he had the intention to release the water once, but Diao went up and beat his men and horses miserably, and killed many people around him, making him feel uncomfortable; Maybe it was Dia Bird who had Hu blood in his eyes, which made him feel repulsed; Maybe it was because Dia Bird was too young to make him feel awkward.
He quietly observed Dia Bird, including a child on a large horse who followed him.
Dia Bird smiled and said, "You're good. Chen's army is in chaos, only your army is standing still, and you are a general. ”
Li Jingsi felt even more uncomfortable.
Imagine how uncomfortable it is for a general who has been in the army since he was a child and fought in the north and south to be praised by a junior enemy general who is more than ten years younger.
Dia Bird smiled again and said, "Gu Aizi wants Gu to protect you and teach him marksmanship." What does the general think? ”
Of course, this is an excuse to persuade him to surrender, Dia Bird himself is a strong martial artist, how can his expectations for Da Da Erhu be one or two marksmanship?
Li Jingsi said: "Please also ask the king to solve one of my questions first, your men and horses ran back and forth for more than 400 miles, and then turned around and turned back, and ambushed here, two nights and one day, how did people and horses do it?" He looked around and said, "And still be able to fight?" ”
Dia Bird smiled faintly, "You are mistaken. Only one striker ran 400 miles, and the main force around me walked less than 300 miles. ”
Li Jingsi asked again: "Why do you want to set up an ambush here?" How can you have the confidence to win the 30,000 Chen Guotie Cavalry? ”
Dia Bird said lightly: "One of your questions is finished. Lone didn't want to answer you, but considering that your tactics to defeat Ma Ear were good, the soldiers said that you should send me bacon. Lonely fulfill the obligation of being a gentleman, answer you, alone in this place ambush, fighting is not war, it is qi. Chen Guo is about to die, and the soldiers have a number in their hearts, running back and forth for hundreds of miles, why don't they dare to fight? And setting up an ambush here, isn't it the same as you, and the fight is unexpected? ”
Li Jingsi said again: "You misunderstood what I meant. ”
Dia Bird let out an "oh", which aroused interest, and asked rhetorically, "Then what do you mean?" ”
Li Jingsi said: "You are a guest army. Alone. How is this possible? How dare you do it? ”
Dia Bird laughed again and whispered, "Lone understands. Why dare Lone is the point. In addition to the movement of operations, mobilization and annihilation of your army, Lone also has some confidence, the army under Lone is strong, and the military spirit is cohesive...... Forget it, these may not answer your questions. Lone is just curious, do you want to see Lone, just to ask Lone? Neither surrender, nor tie hands, let alone look at each other for the sake of loneliness, just to answer the questions of the chest? ”
Li Jingsi hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to ask the king to let me go." I went to persuade King Chen to surrender to the king, so that the king's soldiers would not be bloody. In order to win the trust of Dia Bird, he said, "I am a Yong. It was the superiors who surrendered, and there was no way to stay in Chen Guo. If the king still remembers the battle in Longshang, he still owes me a favor. ”
Dia Bird was stunned for a moment.
With Li Jingsi's explanation, he agreed: "Lone can let you go." But who sees King Chen first between you and Gu depends on your own ability. ”
After speaking, he shouted: "Zhao Guo." You take 3,000 people, take the first step, and fight against Chen Jun. ”
Zhao Guo answered, and went to gather the army.
Li Jingsi was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "What did you say?" ”
Dia Bird laughed again and said, "Didn't you Chen Bing keep coming over? Lone nature is facing head-on. ”
Li Jingsi lost his voice and said: "You just ......"
Diaobird said for him: "Just defeated your cavalry, right? Then pursue, that's right, 30,000 cavalry, only more than 10,000 were annihilated at the end of the day, and the others were either still behind or fled, no way, our Dongxia soldiers were brave, so they liked to hit King Chen head-on, and capture him alive. Throw away your weapons. Lone gives you a white flag, and you run all the way back, maybe it's too late. ”
As soon as he turned around, Dia Bird announced to the soldiers: "Do you dare to compete with him and see who will arrive first?" ”
