Chapter 580: Determination 10
Listening to the sound of the trumpet chasing in the distance has replaced the sound of the dying horn.
"Finally survived again......"
Li Xianzhong, who was covered in blood, sighed and sat on the ground with some detachment. only to find that the horn gun in his hand had been smashed flat and bent in the fierce fight, and a fragment of a blade was embedded in the handguard.
After the whole body was tense and relaxed, he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand to bandage himself. The chain mail was tattered, with several gaps, and it took a little movement to feel extra throbbing and tearing pain.
The people who were lying or sitting all the way with him were all of them, and the number of survivors was the number of survivors.
A desire to die like this supported him, and in the face of superior enemies and falling companions, he desperately cheered and encouraged each other to persist until now.
It was also such an idea that survived the tragic Central Plains War, and inspired him to run thousands of miles to return to his hometown and rebuild the team......
"Well done......"
Li Xianzhong was slowly thinking about it, when he saw a military general wearing a blue tight-fitting robe, wearing a half-body bright light armor, and a double-feathered round-edged helmet, carrying a long bell and slowly walking over.
"Is there water......
"There's no water, but there's this ......"
The other party handed him a cloth-sheathed kettle.
That is, Li Xianzhong, who was so thirsty, took a sip without disgust, and then he was coughed very violently by the spicy and warm taste in his mouth, but he swallowed it very cherishedly, it was actually soju.
"Take a few sips...... Activate the lower body"
The general smiled kindly.
"Then use it to rinse the wound...... Then put the rest on your body."
“…… This way it won't be easy to bruise."
"Thank you, I don't know this captain...... What should I call ......?"
Li Xianzhong looked at the other party with a little gratitude,
On the shoulder armor of the opponent, there is a silver moon and two bronze stars, representing the military rank of Captain Guo Yi; The five-colored ribbon wrapped around the hat and helmet represents the main battle order of one of the royal right, left and front armies known as the three armies, and the double feathers inserted in the helmet indicate that the catalpa is the origin of the old vanguard.
It's just that there is no lacquered logo on his chest, only the foot mark with crossed double guns on the armband, which indicates that he belongs to the newly raised battalion head after the reorganization of Qingzhou. It is not the old battalion or model battalion leader who has passed through the Northern Expedition and other major wars.
As one of the exclusive honors of these veteran troops, they can draw exclusive logo patterns on their team flags and soldiers' breastplates to show respect and distinction. For example, the old battalion, known as the "middle stream" battalion, has a majestic peak with its chest badge and characteristic flag.
However, the silver and bronze medals with several unique patterns and words on the chest represent his personal qualifications and the number of meritorious deeds he has participated in many large-scale battles, rather than the bronze medal of seniority or the bronze medal of service and service.
Therefore, as long as you memorize the hand heat of the office manual, you can basically easily distinguish this information. In contrast, the logo on Li Xianzhong's body is much more ugly, only the three-color ribbon on the hat and helmet and the three bronze flowers on the red epaulette to identify the identity of the deputy of the garrison battalion, and there is no armband and collar badge representing the army and service.
"They are all colleagues, so they don't need to be so polite......"
The general waved his hand
"A certain surname Feng, one word and one wave, now he has been added as the deputy general of the third battalion of the right guard......"
"The second garrison officer stationed in Tunliang Mountain......"
"Yangsan ......"
Li Xianzhong couldn't help but be surprised, in fact, like most people, he didn't know much about this passer-by, and his impression was still on the rumors that before Liangshan was recruited, he was one of the four giants in the world.
Even if it was the old department of Liangshan that forced him to surrender when he attacked Houshan at the beginning, he didn't think that at this time, the inconspicuous backhand who stayed on Liangshan at the beginning played an unexpected role.
This northern cavalry, which landed on the shore without hindrance and drove straight in, obviously did not take the group hiding on Liangshan in his eyes, but as soon as he encountered setbacks and obstacles in the field battle, he was flanked by the defenders who suddenly killed Liangshan, and was caught off guard in one fell swoop, and almost most of the stars were scattered and lost.
"This time, thanks to you, you have stopped the momentum of this incoming enemy,,......"
Speaking of which? Feng Lang took out a roll of bandages from the hanger. At this time, the various auxiliaries he brought with him had already begun to clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded.
"There will be no immediate poison and ...... the local disaster"
"Only then was our unit able to repatriate the nearby soldiers and civilians, and seize the opportunity to take advantage of the situation to drive them out in one fell swoop......"
As he spoke, with the movement of boiling water and cooking with fireworks, the surviving soldiers stood up with each other's support, gathered around the fire in twos and threes, and took hot water and dry food to replenish them on the spot.
In the corpses on the ground, as long as there is breath, they are carried to the cart to bandage and rest, and the corpses of people and horses are also gathered to dig pits and bury.
"Eviction? ……”
Li Xianzhong chewed the meaning of the word slightly.
"Isn't the enemy already defeated......
"yes...... It's to drive back."
Feng Lang said with a sigh.
"Although it is said that the enemy of these two formations has been defeated......"
"But according to the reconnaissance ahead, this is only the first to go ashore."
"The remnants of the enemy who are going to be defeated and return will get backup to regroup, and sooner or later they will make a comeback......"
"Your ministry has done your best, and all that remains is good ...... to be repaired."
Feng Lang continued.
"If things don't go ...... well"
"You and the wounded, retreat with me to Liangshan......
"As for your garrison and the soldiers and civilians in the rear, they have already been evacuated in advance......
"Our priority now is to harass and hold back the enemy's position as much as possible......"
"Try your best to hold off the opponent locally and leave it for the backup ...... south of Jishui"
"Therefore, in the coming days, there will be opportunities to fight side by side......"
"It's also where the great future of my generation lies......"
Hearing this, Li Xianzhong couldn't help but be surprised, but the meaning of the knot in these words was obvious.
"How can Li be ...... Valued by Mong"
"Just a ...... to say hello"
Feng Lang said disapprerovitically.
"The three regiments and two brigades of the Seventh Battalion of the Seventh Battalion have the most survival and battle gains under the leadership of your regiment......"
"The best of the best protections...... It was the right time to block the attacking enemy."
"That's the best credit and opportunity to perform......"
"Therefore, according to the military regulations, if there is a need in the future, it is also the priority to choose your department to make up for it......"
"In this war, I have to increase the number of troops and divide the battalion, so I should take precautions......
"Emergency MI......
Suddenly, a horse of dust came galloping and shouted loudly
"The enemy is retreating......"
"Order all the guards to go in pursuit ......"
Li Xianzhong and Feng Lang couldn't help but look at each other in surprise, so they still regarded themselves as the enemy of the crowd, so it was easy to retreat.
Later, when they remedied and led the remnants to the bank of the Yellow River, they were a little surprised to see that in the fully built beachhead camp, the northern troops who had landed on the shore looked to be tens of thousands.
However, in the face of the confrontation outside the camp, the Huaidong Army, which was inferior in numbers, most of them lacked fighting spirit and fighting spirit, and gathered on the shore to shout something, which made people a little confused.
Because of the lack of its own numbers, and in the face of the fortifications that had already been built, because of the men and horses that had been chased in advance, they did not hurriedly launch a strong attack, but used a small batch of volleys to carry out fire reconnaissance and test the defensive line
"It's a boat."
At this time, Li Xianzhong suddenly spoke
"What ......"
"Where did the boats that sent these northern troops across the river go......
Li Xianzhong continued to explain.
Feng Lang couldn't help but open the mirror tube and take a closer look, and sure enough, he found that he didn't see a big boat suitable for river transportation.
"The ship is ...... there"
The person in charge of the sentry next to me suddenly shouted
Then, in the distance, on the river, they found a few traces of riverboats shrouded in a faint smoke, like small black dots slowly approaching.
As a result, the northern army stationed on the shore gradually settled down, and began to gather spontaneously, lined up with bows and crossbows outside the camp, and carried out a rain of arrows to fight back.
However, as the fleet of boats on the river approached, the smoke that shrouded above did not dissipate, but became thicker and more distinct. After another half of the ring, not only the lookouts standing on the high places could be seen clearly, just like most of the soldiers who were fighting, they could see with the naked eye, and many of them were actually burning and smoking as they sailed.
The Yellow River sailors who were on high alert were openly fighting on the river, chasing each other, rushing and jumping gangs to fight, and the arrows and fire pots projected were a mess on the burning river, which was clearly visible even in broad daylight.
