57. What kind of army is this?

Three days later, the Yihekou Dense Forest ......

"It's getting colder and colder, hiding in this broken forest and blowing cold wind for three days, and when Lao Tzu goes back, he must have a good drink to get rid of the cold!" Sun Biao hid in the wooden shed built with cut wood, and kept putting his hands on the fire to bake, Wu Zhenying and Chu Zijun around him were also a little shivering from the cold, but fortunately, the cotton fur and sleeping bag on their bodies were strong enough, otherwise they would have frozen out of the disease in this cold day.

Wu Zhenying said: "Count the days, the thieves should almost arrive, I believe that we can do a good job with the thieves the day after tomorrow at the latest!" ”

Chu Zijun said: "Thanks to the general's love, let Zijun have the opportunity to be promoted to the high position of the hundred chiefs with the qualifications of a new soldier, and he is not very afraid every day, so he can only go into battle to kill more thieves to repay the general's kindness." ”

Sun Biao smiled: "Zijun, you sycophant general can't hear it." ”

Chu Zijun hurriedly said: "Sun Baichang laughed, Zijun's words came from the bottom of his heart, there is absolutely no falsehood, the general doesn't like flattery on weekdays, so he can only confide in you what he thinks in his heart......"

Wu Zhenying nodded and said: "Zijun's words have won my heart, the general treats us well on weekdays, only by fighting bravely to kill the enemy and making more military exploits can he repay his kindness to our cultivation......"

When Sun Biao heard it, he secretly said that reading and literacy is also beneficial, seeing how beautiful what others say, this sycophant is also more flavorful than himself, it seems that he has to work harder, otherwise he will not talk about climbing up again, and his position will not be stable, so he smiled and said: "You two sycophants are better than the other, don't always laugh at me behind my back." Speaking of Zijun, you are dignified and Xu Hui's kid is called a Confucian general in our Jingwei camp, why don't you think about finding a daughter-in-law? ”

Chu Zijun was stunned and said: "Zijun naturally doesn't dare to compare with President Xu Qi, but as the saying goes, a big husband should achieve a career in the world, so why should he have no wife?" ”

Sun Biao shook his head and said: "No, no, no, I, Sun Biao, have also read some books in the past few days, the so-called starting a family and starting a business, should start a family first and then start a business, and even a daughter-in-law didn't talk about doing anything to make a career?" ”

Wu Zhenying, who was beside him, couldn't help but nod in agreement: "Sun Baichang's words are good, Zijun, you are not small, you should be a family, my Jingwei Battalion is very generous to the treatment of soldiers with families, not to mention that I heard that the Jingwei Battalion will further grow in the future, and if you want to climb to a high place, the first thing you must have a family." ”

"Huh?" Sun Biao became interested when he heard it, "Lao Wu, who did you listen to?" ”

Wu Zhenying smiled playfully: "Naturally, it's Mr. Qin and them, you two can do it yourself." ”

Chu Zijun and Sun Biao looked confused, Chu Zijun said that he didn't have to worry about finding a beautiful daughter-in-law with this appearance and a gradually solid family background. But Sun Biao is different, his appearance is not ugly, but he has nothing to do with handsome characters at all, and the temper of the five big and three rough is not good, who will take a fancy to him?

"It's over, my grandson can only be like this in his life, which girl can look up to me with my face? General, his old man, isn't this a toss......" Sun Biao sighed, and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing at himself.

"Who said that?" At this moment, Chen Qing and Guo Tao opened the windshield cloth hanging at the entrance of the wooden shed and walked in, patting the armor and shaking off the snow hanging on their bodies.

"I've seen Mr. Chen Qi and Mr. Guo Qi." The three of them immediately stood up and hugged their fists to say hello.

"Excuse me, excuse me, whose wine is this? I took a sip first, and I was cold, and the weather was really uncomfortable. Guo Tao's gloved hand picked up the blackened bamboo cup hanging above the fire, took a sip regardless of the hot mouth, and suddenly felt warm, and then handed it to Chen Qing, he also took a sip, and sat down with everyone.

"Sun Biao, what you said is wrong." Guo Tao said, "Since the establishment of my Jingwei Battalion, you don't inquire, how many girls want to marry our soldiers?" As soon as the drill ended a few days ago, the door of my Guo Qi was full of matchmakers, and I didn't know how to deal with it. ”

"Yes." Chen Qing interjected, "It's the same in my flag, dozens of pairs are waiting at the door of my accommodation every day, I don't know how to deal with it, you say that I don't understand this fart as a military trainer, and I'm about to become a matchmaker." Ask the general how to deal with it, and guess what the general said? Let's take care of it ourselves, and don't bother him with such trivial things in the future. ”

"Mom, is this a trivial matter?" Sun Biao's eyes lit up suddenly, "Why can't this good thing be my turn!" "Sun Biao is twenty-seven years old this year, even in Liu Ce's era, he is basically married, and even more so, the children will play soy sauce. He also wants to marry his daughter-in-law to settle down, pass on the ancestry, and give an account to his ancestors.

Guo Tao glanced at him, and then said: "As long as you love your own woman and treat her well, how can you not find a daughter-in-law?" The appearance of the man is not important, the important thing is to take responsibility and responsibility, this is what the general personally taught us when he was in Wanjiazhuang, don't worry, old grandson, you work hard, it will not be a problem to marry three or four in the future. ”

"Hehe, look at what you said, I seem to be in a hurry." Sun Biao couldn't help rubbing his hands and laughing. The atmosphere in the shed was lively, and there was a lot of hope for the future.

……

"Su Wencan, where have the thieves gone?" In another wooden shed, Liu Ce handed Su Wencan a cup of hot water and motioned for him to drink it before speaking.

After Su Wencan drank the hot water, he said: "Less than fifty miles, after today, it will be less than thirty miles, according to the following estimates, we will arrive at Yihekou the morning after tomorrow." ”

"Okay, you can send someone to find out where Xu Hui and them are now." Seeing that the situation was tense, Liu Ce asked Xu Hui about the location of his department and made arrangements as soon as possible.

"No need." Su Wencan said, "I have already investigated below, there is no movement within a hundred miles, it is estimated that it is one hundred and fifty miles away, and it will arrive in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow at the earliest." ”

"You're doing a great job." Liu Ce found that this Su Wencan was thoughtful, not surprised, and able to find out the information he needed in advance, so he couldn't help but feel that it was a material that could be made, so he said: "When this battle is over, I intend to form a scout, are you willing to serve as this scout tie?"

"Thank you for the cultivation of the general, and I will not give up in the next ten thousand deaths!" Su Wencan's eyes flashed, his heart was ecstatic, and he knelt on one knee with his fists clenched.

"Get up, after forming the scout force, you have to practice well, your army is the eyes and ears of my Jingwei battalion, you must not be sloppy, understand?"

"Please rest assured, General! After the formation of the scout department, he was strictly disciplined, and made great contributions to my Jingwei battalion! ”

"Okay, go down, when this battle is over, you go to Han Qi's head to hand over, and I will arrange the rest of the relevant candidates for you."

Liu Ce watched Su Wencan walk out of the shed with a look full of excitement, and secretly sighed: The whole Jingwei battalion has struggled to survive from the food and clothing line, and gradually has ambition, but this is okay, only with ambition can there be motivation, and only then can the Jingwei battalion be more energetic and more motivated.

At this moment, Qin Mo and Xue Peng opened the windshield curtain and walked in, and when they saw Liu Ce and Qin Mo, they spoke: "General, I just saw Su Wencan leave with a smug face, is there anything good?" ”

Liu Ce waved his hand and motioned for the two of them to sit down and speak: "It's nothing, it's just a few words of encouragement, how about it, everything has been dealt with?" ”

Xue Peng got up and hugged his fists and said: "Thank you for the gold sore medicine and cotton bags given by the strong man, so that my soldiers under my command will not be attacked by pain and cold, and I, Xue Peng, will remember the kindness of the strong man." Because Liu Ce's department was a righteous army and was not recognized by the imperial court, he has been called a "strong man" for the past few days.

"Don't thank me." Liu Ce sat aside angrily, "If you want to thank you, thank you Mr. Qin, I'm not a good man and a woman, if it weren't for Mr. Qin's face, I wouldn't bother to take care of you." ”

Xue Peng was choked, his face twitched a few times, and he said in his heart that this kid is too much, but he can't think of a word to describe this situation.

Qin Mo smiled: "If it weren't for the general's benevolence, my Qin Mo wouldn't have enough face......

Liu Ce shook his head and said, "Mr. Qin, don't lift me up, tell me what's the matter with this time?" ”

Qin Mo and Xue Peng glanced at each other and said slowly, "I had a few words with Su Wencan just now, and the thieves have already reached fifty miles away?"

Liu Ce said: "Yes, you can arrive at Yihekou in these two days, and the war is about to start." ”

Qin Mo took a step forward and continued: "In this way, before the war, Yang Kaishan's Xu Hui department was too late to arrive here. ”

Liu Ce said: "Sir, please speak." ”

Qin Mo glanced at Xue Peng again, only to see that his eyes were full of longing, so he mustered up the courage and said: "Mo is thinking, there are a huge number of thieves, can you return General Xue and the horses and weapons under his command to them, so that they can kill the enemy with the army?" General Xue's subordinates are all veterans of a hundred battles, and one more help will give him a better chance of winning. ”

Hearing this, Liu Ce got up and began to think, judging from his heart, Xue Peng's troops were indeed called elite from the performance of being captured that day, and they could calmly form a battle in such a tired state. And Qin Mo has been getting along with himself in the past few months, and there will be no mistakes with him as a guarantee, but the army under Xue Peng is not the same system as himself, and the fighting style of the Jingwei Battalion is completely different, and it is still at the level of personal bravery, will it cause changes in the battle situation?

Seeing Liu Ce pacing back and forth, Xue Peng stopped talking with a look on his face, receiving favors should be reciprocated This is his Xue Peng's principle of life, not to mention that he has learned some about the achievements of the Jingwei Battalion with Qin Mo these days, and he also really wants to see how this army is different.

"That's it." After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Ce said to Xue Peng, "Mr. Qin has said so, how can I refute his face in the future, you will go with Mr. Qin to retrieve the blades and horses later, but there is one thing, you have to obey my command in this battle, don't have other ideas!" ”

"Thank you for the success!" Xue Peng couldn't help but be grateful when he saw Liu Ce agree. Qin Mo also looked at Liu Ce differently, believing that he was by no means as simple as just giving himself face, and he must have his own thoughts.

……

Two more days passed......

"Xiaowen, what's wrong with you? Wake up, someone! ”

In the thief convoy, the emaciated young man from before finally couldn't support it anymore and fell, crushing him to the ground with heavy supplies on his back.

"What? What's yelling? A thief overseer kicked away the shouting people, leaned down and looked at the boy lying on the ground, "Are you dead?" If you don't die, stand up for Lao Tzu! ”

The overseer said and threw a whip in his face, and the young man snorted, struggled to get up, and said in his heart: "I can't die, I can't die here, I still have to avenge my father, how can I die here." ”

……

Watching the bustling procession gradually arrive at the Yihekou Plain, Pei Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief. The most difficult terrain has finally survived, and then the foot can be accelerated, in line with the idea of asking for goods and not people, more than 1,000 people have fallen forever on the more than 200-mile road.

"Speed up your trip! It's been a long time coming! Pei Xu yelled at the thieves below, and the team was indeed much faster than before.

"Sigh Rule~"

Suddenly, Pei Xu's crotch screamed uneasily, and he paced back and forth, and it was difficult to control it for a while.

"What's going on?" When Pei Xu saw his horse like this, he suddenly felt an ominous feeling in his heart.

"Woo woo woo~"

The dull sound of trumpets sounded in the dense forest near the Boxer Plain, and then cold spears slowly poked out of the forest, and a group of soldiers of the Jingwei Battalion were full of bloodthirsty light, neatly walking out of the dense forest and appearing in front of the thieves.

"Enemy attack! Formation! Pei Xu didn't have time to think about why this army appeared here, and hurriedly shouted. The three thousand sharp soldiers panicked for a while and immediately formed their own formations, preparing to meet the battle. The 5,000 thieves scurried around like flies, and the people who were carrying the supplies hurriedly threw down their supplies and sat motionless on the ground with frightened faces.

"Damn, it's finally here! Hurt Lao Tzu to blow so much wind! Sun Biao held a four-meter spear in his hand, ranking first in the second formation, and a fire was burning in his chest, "Praise more money and food to go back and marry a girl, hehehe!" ”

Guo Taobu, on the other hand, was like a pack of wolves staring at the thieves in front of them, as if they were prey......

Wu Zhenying and Chu Zijun each led their own team of 100 people to look at the rogue thieves opposite, as if looking at a dead corpse, and stepped forward.

Chen Qing took his cavalry and Qin Mo and Xue Peng's men and horses to hide in the dense forest, and now was not the time for them to fight.

A blood-red banner stood behind Liu Ce, and the totem printed on it was the totem of the Jingwei Battalion, which was like a blazing sun in the cold wind of the columns, which made people feel refreshed.

After the totem of the Jingwei Battalion was raised, the main flags between the flags were also slowly erected. Pei Xu saw the flags standing on the opposite side, and saw the majestic momentum of these soldiers, he couldn't help but gasp, although the number of people was less than eight hundred, but the pressure he felt was like a mountain of mountains surging into his heart.

"Drink! Drink! Drink! ”

Sixty paces away from the thieves, the iron-clad spearmen in the front row stopped, raised their shields to the ground, and pointed their fearsome spears at the front of the thieves, followed by a second team of iron-clad spearmen who poked their spears out of the gaps between the left and right of the soldiers in the front row......

Looking at the dense spears, Pei Xu's scalp couldn't help tingling, how can this be beaten? Look at that banner, is it the Jingwei Battalion?

Thinking of this, Pei Xu couldn't help but tremble, but his years of fighting made him calm down immediately.

"Let's see what means there are, there are less than 800 people in this Jingwei battalion, I have 3,000 sharp soldiers and 5,000 soldiers, so what are I afraid of?" Thinking of this, Pei Xu roared: "The soldiers are out of battle!" Kill! ”

As soon as the words fell, more than 2,000 thieves, driven by the sharp soldiers behind them, scattered and shouted at the spear array.

"The thief is really unrepentant, hasn't he learned his lesson after so long?" Wu Zhenying couldn't help but say contemptuously when he saw the thieves attacking, and the soldiers beside him were also looking at fools, their eyes were full of "sympathy......

"Puff~Puff~Puff~"

"Ah, don't push me~"

"Don't squeeze ~ ah"

……

The sound of sharp blades entering the flesh soon resounded in front of the spear array, and these thieves who did not know whether they were alive or dead were stabbed to the ground by the spearmen before they could rush to the first shield, and the thieves who fell to the ground tripped over a group of comrades who rushed forward to kill, and many of them directly hit the spear tips made of fine iron, bringing out the internal organs of the body, and they did not blink to death.

"Two steps forward, stab!" Guo Tao stabbed a thief to death and roared, and the auxiliary soldiers on one side immediately beat the war drum when they heard it.

With a steady shout, the spearmen in the front row raised their shields, took two steps forward with their spears, and stood their shields heavily on the dry and hard ground. The spearmen in the back row immediately followed, and at the moment when the shield was established, they stabbed out at the same time as the front row, and immediately bloomed blood flowers in the group of thieves......

Ten paces in a row, a column of 100 spearmen stabbed dozens or hundreds of thieves with each step. As he had reached fifty paces, the thief roared and collapsed, and the remaining thousand or so ran madly towards the formation, howling incessantly for fear that the terrible spears would come at him......

"This ...... This...... This ......" Xue Peng and the soldiers under his command in the dense forest looked at the scene on the battlefield, their eyes couldn't help but widen, and they couldn't say a word. How long did it take for more than 2,000 thieves to collapse? What kind of army is this? How did Liu Ce train his soldiers?

Xue Peng was shocked and secretly glad that he didn't commit Hun and Liu Ce that day, otherwise the end would definitely be the same as the thief in front of him......
