『Chapter error, click here to report』

The offensive and defensive battle of Fanyang City has begun, and the offensive and defensive battle of Renqiu City is also going on tragically.

The army of 120,000 Yuan Shao outside the city, after two days of preparation, began to launch a desperate attack on Renqiu.

In this defensive battle, the Lu family army did not have any advantage at all, and the soldiers defending the city were all newly recruited civilians and surrendered troops, although they had great enthusiasm under the inspiration of Lu Peng's policy, but enthusiasm could not make up for the lack of tactics.

At the same time, in this attack, whether it was Zhao Yun's 20,000 cavalry or Lu Peng, there was no such thing as his sharp weapon, the Lu longbow, this time, it was a real and desperate war with each other, and what was fought was the willpower of both sides.

Yuan Shao's army was guided by a kind of overwhelming advantage of Mount Tai and a quick battle and quick victory, and on the first day, they pressed all their strength, and launched a desperate attack on the thin Renqiu City from all sides.

Although it is a bad life, but in the face of the boundless enemy like the sea, Zhang Feng, the first civilian who signed up for the army, at this time his legs trembled like dead branches and grass in the autumn wind, and he could barely support his body. It has no effect on the enemy who is rushing in the distance, and it has no effect on the slightest fright.

At this time, a veteran of the Lu Jiajun came over, holding a bamboo stick in his hand, Zhang Feng was scared to death at that time, according to Yuan Jun's rules, he did this, cut himself to set an example, there is nothing to say.

So he turned around and was about to kneel down and beg for mercy, but the veteran of the Lu Jiajun patted himself on the shoulder: "It doesn't matter, it's the first time, it's normal to be nervous, I have gone through three months of training to kill the enemy, and when I went to the battlefield for the first time, I also peed my pants." Then he lowered his head exaggeratedly, looked at Zhang Feng's crotch, and said with a smile to the soldiers who had just joined around him: "Take a look, isn't this better than me?" At least he hadn't peed his pants yet. ”

Zhang Feng tried his best to clamp his crotch, in fact, he was not far from wetting his pants now, but when the new chief said this, the original impatient urge to urinate was suddenly gone, and his body involuntarily straightened up.

This veteran soldier held the wall with both hands, looked at the dense Yuan army rushing over like a sea of mountains on the opposite side, and said to the ten recruits around him with a smile: "In fact, there is nothing in the battle, you look at the enemy on the opposite side is so dense, your bow and arrow don't need to be aimed at all, draw the bow full, shoot it out, you can definitely kill an enemy, you must know, our state pastor can say that killing an enemy will give a reward of 100 yuan." ”

Then he looked at the subordinates who were eager to try: "Of course, no one can count the number of enemies you kill, but Lord Zhou Mu said again, as long as you release an arrow, you will be rewarded with ten wen, and now each of you has fifty arrows in your legs, as long as you shoot them, you will have an income of five hundred wen." Then he pointed at Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng shuddered, he had just wasted an arrow, would he be punished?

"Take this brother, for example." The chief smiled and said, "We just released an arrow, although the enemy is far away from us, but according to the rules, we only count the arrows shot, regardless of whether it has an effect or not. Then he patted Zhang Feng on the shoulder: "Congratulations, you already have an income of ten cents." Then he carefully carved a word on a bamboo piece and handed it to Zhang Feng directly: "Take this thing, and when the battle is over tonight, go directly to the logistics clerk to receive ten cents." In the end, he didn't forget to joke: "When you think about getting these ten cents, please ask me for a meat bun." ”

Can this also be done?

This can indeed be done, according to Lu Peng's thoughts, these hastily recruited soldiers are not called soldiers at all, let them go directly to the battlefield to kill the enemy, it is simply a landlubber on the shelf, since there is no training, of course, there is no courage to kill the enemy, but all things lie in encouraging habits, as long as you encourage them, they will become familiar with these encouragements, or that sentence, what can be solved with money is definitely not a problem, then use money to solve this matter.

So Lu Peng issued this unbelievable order, as long as these newly recruited soldiers, or rather, rabble, released the arrows in their hands, they would be rewarded with ten cents, and there was no need to see whether he killed or injured the enemy. Of course, as long as you are proficient in releasing arrows, there will always be a blind cat in ten arrows that will meet a dead mouse, which may not be able to kill the enemy, but at least kill and injure them, so that your goal will be achieved.

Money is something to be spent, and as long as you spend it on the cutting edge, then it shows its effect.

"One more point, everyone should rest assured." This elder Shi old soldier, holding the female wall of the city wall, looked out with a relaxed expression, looked at the enemies who came like a tide, and said to the recruits around him with a smile: "Although there are many enemies, but you see, we have a high city wall, and when he climbs up to fight us, he will already be soft and tired like a dog, and then we will stab them lightly, and they will die, and then you will be rewarded with a hundred dollars, this is a good opportunity to make a fortune, you are willing to give up, anyway, I am not willing to give up." ”

As he spoke, he put his spear on the wall, turned around neatly, leaned against the female wall of the city wall, and said leisurely with his arms crossed: "For the people who climb the wall, they have to use both hands and feet, where is the chance to kill and injure us?" I stabbed them lightly with my gun, which was a hundred dollars, and I now have absolute confidence that I would expect them to climb up, and then I would kill them one by one like cockroaches, and I would have absolute confidence that I would get a thousand dollars at the end of the war tonight. ”

Then he said with a yearning face: "For a thousand dollars, I can buy my mother a good dress, make a pot of wine for my father, and quietly run to the door of the little girl in our village and give her a velvet flower, if such a battle can last for a month, I will have enough dowry to get my favorite daughter." Then he deliberately stammered: "It's a pity, there are more wolves and less meat, with you bastards here, I may not have many turns, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”

The more this veteran said this, the more it aroused the desire of the ten recruits around him to fight, and when he thought about the beautiful copper coin, all the eyes of all the people became the image of Brother Kong Fang.
