Section 2: Attacking the Bandits
After Gao Hongguang received Liu Yunwei's order, he was overjoyed, and thought to himself: "This is the first battle with the Wenxiang Sect, the eldest brother actually sent me there, I have to show momentum and make the first achievement!" So, Gao Hongguang immediately led the soldiers of the Yingyang Department to break away from the brigade and gallop towards the direction of Huashan; At the same time, Zhao Kaishan also received an order to attack, and led the Tiger Ben Department to rush towards Lishan, which was relatively close.
The Yingyang Department led by Gao Hongguang are all heroes who have recently joined the Hanwei Battalion, and these soldiers are all skilled in archery and horses, and they are extremely fierce, but compared with the rest of the soldiers in the headquarters, these heroes lack some of the spirit of the army, but they still have a handle in their hands to deal with more than 1,000 bandits.
Along the way, under the guidance of the night, Gao Hongguang led more than 400 soldiers non-stop, and rushed to the vicinity of Huashan after nearly an hour.
After arriving, Gao Hongguang first inquired about Yebushu, learned about the situation of the bandits gathered on Huashan Mountain, and then sent Yebushu out to find the location of this gang of bandits; At the same time, Gao Hongguang ordered his soldiers to rest on the spot and wait until they had recovered their strength before going into the mountains to look for the enemy.
At this time, a general manager under Gao Hongguang asked: "My lord, we are all here, just go up the mountain directly, what are you still resting here?" ”
"If you don't have enough strength, how can you kill people for a while?" Gao Hongguang glanced at the Bai general manager and said angrily.
Mr. Bai smiled and said, "Hehe, my lord, isn't that a gang of bandits?" Do you need to be so cautious? ”
Gao Hongguang said with a straight face: "Do you understand the truth of being careful to sail a 10,000-year-old ship?" This is our first battle after joining the Hanwei Battalion, and we must make a good start, otherwise how will we gain a foothold in the battalion in the future? You go and make it clear to your brothers, find these bandits and fight in a while, if anyone drags me back, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people! ”
Seeing Gao Hongguang's serious face, Mr. Bai stopped laughing, and immediately clasped his fists and said: "Don't worry, my lord, my brothers will not embarrass my lord, just look at it!" After saying that, the hundred general went to give the order.
At this time, Gao Hongguang looked at Huashan, which was not too high, and said secretly in his heart: "After finding the location of this gang of bandits for a while, we must rush and fight quickly, and we must give the eldest brother a good impression, so that the eldest brother and all the brothers know that although my Eagle Yang Department is a newly established headquarters, its combat power is absolutely reliable!" ”
And after looking at the surrounding mountains for a while, Gao Hongguang couldn't help but be a little worried, and said secretly: "Although the mountains here are not steep, they are still relatively undulating, and they are not suitable for cavalry to exert their combat power. ”
After watching it for a while, Gao Hongguang also sat down and began to rest. After about a meal, Ye Bushu, who had been sent to check the news, hurried back and said to Gao Hongguang: "Lord Qiqi, the bandit village on the mountain is empty, and the gang of bandits is now gone!" ”
Gao Hongguang was taken aback when he heard this, if he returned in the first battle after joining the army, he couldn't even find the enemy, then he wouldn't want to stay in the Hanwei camp in the future, it would be better to go home directly to retire and farm!
Gao Hongguang hurriedly asked, "How can this be, didn't you find the traces of this gang of bandits before?" Did you find any traces they left behind when they left? How could more than a thousand people say that they are gone! ”
The night was also very anxious, and after thinking for a while, he said with a little frustration: "My lord, the surrounding area of the cottage is very messy, and there are traces left by a large group of people and horses everywhere, which is obviously an illusion created by the bandits in order to deliberately hide their traces, so the villain really can't judge where they went." ”
When Gao Hongguang heard the words of not collecting that night, the green tendons on his forehead rose, and a cold sweat suddenly broke out all over his body, and he was very anxious. However, Gao Hongguang's mind was thinking about countermeasures at the moment, and after a while, Gao Hongguang remembered something, so he asked: "From that cottage to the direction of Yuncheng, will the route through intersect with the route of our brigade?" ”
Ye Bushu thought for a moment, and then said with great certainty: "Yes!" In the direction of the Shahe ferry, the brigade led by the general will cross the river at the ferry, and if you go to Yuncheng from here, you must also pass through the Shahe ferry! ”
Gao Hongguang suddenly became excited when he heard this, and said, "That's right!" It seems that I really underestimated this gang of bandits, these bandits even know the truth of the half-crossing attack, I'm afraid they are on their way to the Shahe ferry at the moment. ”
After speaking, Gao Hongguang looked up at the sky again, and said to himself: "The team led by the eldest brother should still be some distance away from the Shahe ferry, and my Yingyang Department is all cavalry, and if I set off now, I will definitely be able to get there before the eldest brother." Good! Then I'll stop this gang of bandits at the Shahe ferry, and try to eliminate these bandits before the eldest brother reaches the ferry. ”
So, Gao Hongguang immediately shouted: "Brothers, all get on the horse!" Full speed west to the Sand River Ferry! ”
As soon as the words fell, all the 420 soldiers of the Eagle Yang Department flew on their horses and galloped towards the direction of the Shahe ferry under the leadership of Gao Hongguang.
The words are divided into two ends, one for each table. Just when Gao Hongguang led his troops to the Shahe ferry, the Tiger Ben Department led by Zhao Kaishan also rushed to the foot of Lishan.
Looking at the densely planted and undulating Lishan, Zhao Kaishan grinned, scolded in his heart for a while, and thought: "Even if the soldiers of my Tiger Ben Department are brave and good at fighting, but to attack the cottage where more than a thousand bandits are stationed, and the terrain is still such a steep mountain, I'm afraid it is not so easy." In order to reduce unnecessary casualties, it seems that this battle is going to be outwitted. ”
Just when Zhao Kaishan racked his brains to think of a clever plan to destroy the enemy, Ye Bushu got out of the bushes on the slope of the mountain, ran directly to Zhao Kaishan's side, and said anxiously: "My lord, my whereabouts are exposed." ”
Zhao Kaishan was not angry but happy when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Did that gang of bandits find us?" Are they coming at us? Great, if we fight in formation, we will not only win the battle, but also save a lot of trouble, which is exactly what I want! ”
But who knew that he didn't accept it that night, but said: "My lord, that gang of bandits has indeed discovered our whereabouts, and they all came out of the cottage before as if they were going somewhere; However, after they found out about us, not only did they not kill us, but they all retreated, and now the more than 1,000 bandits are defending the cottage. ”
"What!" Zhao Kaishan was furious when he heard this, and shouted angrily: "A group of ghosts who are afraid of death! More than 1,000 people were so frightened by more than 400 of us that they ran back, and they dared to learn from others to rob homes and houses with this little guts? Being a bandit can be like this, and there is no bottom line! ”
Zhao Kaishan scolded for a while, looked up at the sky, saw the sun rising higher and higher, his heart was horizontal, and he said secretly: "No matter!" Time waits for no one, since this gang of bandits has no courage to come out, and they can't use any tricks, they can only lead their troops up the mountain to attack. ”
Thinking of this, Zhao Kaishan shouted loudly: "Brothers, those bandits were frightened by the prestige of our Tiger Ben Department, and now they are hiding in the cottage and dare not come out, then let's go to the door!" God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha! ”
The four hundred and twenty soldiers waved the weapons in their hands and roared loudly, and then, under the leadership of Zhao Kaishan, they plunged into the reckless mountain and rushed towards the cottage on the mountain.
At the same time, on the official road leading to the Shahe ferry, the main force of the Hanwei battalion was marching mightily, and Liu Yunwei and Sun Yuanhua were riding horses together.
After the two talked for a while, Sun Yuanhua said to Liu Yunwei: "Mr. Liu Qian, Mr. Gao and Mr. Zhao have all set off for a while, and now they should have rushed to their respective places, right?" ”
Liu Yunwei smiled and said, "It should be almost time, what's the matter?" Is Mr. Sun worried that the two of them will not be able to complete the task? ”
"Haha, that's not it." Sun Yuanhua said with a smile: "Whether it is the general or the general Zhao, both of them are fierce generals in the world, not to mention that the opponents are just some bandits and swimmers, and it is definitely not a problem to win." I'm just worried that the Smelling Incense Church will use some shady tricks, and the soldiers will suffer unnecessary casualties at that time. ”
Liu Yunwei didn't take Sun Yuanhua's words to heart, but said: "Mr. Sun must have heard of Yili Poqiao, right?" That's what we're doing now, the combat power of my Hanwei Battalion is definitely not something that the Smelling Fragrance Sect can compete with, and the reason why we needed help from outside the senior staff before was that we wanted to try to force all the forces of the Smelling Fragrance Sect out? Now that the enemy and us are already fighting with open guns, in the face of the absolute strength of my Hanwei battalion, any trick of the Wenxiang Sect will be a joke! This is one force to ten meetings, to break the skill! ”
Sun Yuanhua listened carefully to Liu Yunwei's words, thought for a while, and asked, "Mr. Liu Qian trusts his subordinates so much?" Just believe that they can easily defeat the enemy and send back good news? ”
Liu Yunwei nodded very affirmatively and said, "I believe it!" Because they are all my brothers, all my comrades in life and death, and all of whom I can trust with my lives. I believe that it won't be long before the general Gao and the general Zhao will come with good news; And I also believe that with the soldiers of my Hanwei Camp and so many heroic and righteous people, we will definitely be able to completely eradicate the cult of Wenxiang Sect, which is a scourge! ”
