Chapter 51: Reinforcements
Fang Chengtian slowly walked to the lake and sat down, looking at the rippling full moon in the lake, and let out a long sigh.
This battle, with two hundred against one thousand, won extremely dangerously, extremely lucky, if it were not for the arrogance of the Tang army, the pursuit of relentless, would not have been hit by Fang Chengtian's rolling stone attack, the Tang army directly suffered more than half of the casualties, otherwise the hand-to-hand combat behind, even if their own side has the advantage of heavy armor, it will definitely not be killed.
He sat quietly by the lake, staring blankly at the water.
Although he was tired, he couldn't sleep.
As soon as he closed his eyes, his mind was full of the shadows of the tragic deaths of those soldiers!
"Captain Fang, the remains of the brothers have all been collected properly, and they are waiting for you."
Suddenly, a deep voice sounded behind Fang Chengtian, he turned his head, and Gao Shiyuan's sad face came into view.
Fang Chengtian nodded, got up and said, "Let's go, send the brothers on their last journey!" ”
The bodies of one hundred and six soldiers were lying neatly in a huge earth pit, lying in a full thirteen rows!
Fang Chengtian stood on the edge of the pit, holding a handful of loess in his hand, his eyes swept over the bodies of the soldiers one by one, only to see that those fallen soldiers were all covered in blood and scarred, and none of the corpses were intact.
Suddenly, a young face fell into Fang Chengtian's eyes, it was the young soldier who blocked the sword with his body and saved his life.
He looked at the young soldier's immature and pale face, looked at the unwillingness on that face, and his eyes were gradually blurred by tears.
"Bring the wine!" Fang Chengtian suddenly shouted, and Li Daniu hurriedly brought a jar of spirits and served it.
Fang Chengtian slammed open the seal, slowly poured the wine into the pit, looked at the crystal clear wine flowing around, gradually seeping into the soil, his nose was sour, and he threw the wine jar on the ground, smashed it with a "bang", knelt on one knee, and choked loudly: "Brothers, go all the way!" ”
"Go all the way!" The surviving soldiers shouted in unison and fell to their knees.
At this time, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came from the bottom of the mountain, and the soldiers were startled, and they got up one after another, looking at the direction of the official road with an awe-inspiring face.
When they saw that the first man was a brother who had gone to the rear army to ask for help, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and fell to their knees again, looking at the brothers in the pit with a heavy face.
As soon as the soldier who went to ask for help saw the dense corpses of the soldiers in the huge pit, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he jumped down from the horse without waiting for the horse to stop, and fell to the ground with a stumble, and he quickly got up again, rushed to the edge of the pit, looked at the remains of the soldiers in the pit, and suddenly lost his voice and cried bitterly.
His crying immediately caused the other soldiers to cry as well.
The sound of horses' hooves approached, and countless cavalry came to the top of the hill.
"How can there be immortals in war, manly husband, what kind of words are crying and crying?"
Suddenly, a voice came, Fang Chengtian couldn't help frowning, turned his head to look over, and saw Wang Mazi.
I saw Wang Mazi wearing golden bright light armor, riding on a war horse, with high ambitions, and even the hemp on his face seemed to be glowing.
Wang Mazi also saw Fang Chengtian and sneered: "Captain Fang, when you see General Ben, why don't you come over to salute?" ”
His face sank, and he exclaimed, "Do you want to commit the following crimes?" ”
The soldier's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly walked to Fang Chengtian's side and said in a low voice: "Captain Fang, that Wang Mazi is now a partial general of the rear army, and the person behind him is Huang Zilong, the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, General ---Huang Zilong. ”
Fang Chengtian moved his gaze to Huang Zilong, only to see that Huang Zilong was about twenty-five or sixteen, his face was white and beardless, his expression was arrogant, his chin was high, and he used his nostrils to face people, although he was smiling, he gave people a feeling of disgust.
He snorted lightly, glanced at Wang Mazi again, and then moved his gaze to the fallen soldiers in the pit.
Huang Zilong immediately put away his smile, looked at Fang Chengtian coldly, and said lightly: "Is it you who came to the rescue of General Ben?" ”
Gao Shiyuan saw that Fang Chengtian didn't seem to want to pay attention to that Huang Zilong anymore, frowned, got up and hugged his fists and said: "Back to General Huang, it is indeed us who asked for help, but the enemy army has been completely annihilated by the officers and soldiers of our army......"
"Annihilation?" Wang Mazi was stunned for a moment, suddenly laughed, and sneered, "The enemy who can be wiped out by the heavy cavalry battalion must not be simple, haha~~~"
Li Daniu snorted, got up suddenly, clenched his fists and said coldly: "Tell the general, the soldiers of our battalion have just fought a bloody battle with more than 1,000 elite Tang troops, and now they have killed all the enemy troops......
"Hahaha~~~" That Wang Mazi laughed again, suddenly looked at Huang Zilong, and said in a long voice, "Brother Huang~~~"
When Huang Zilong heard this, he hurriedly lowered his head, hugged his fists and saluted: "General Wang." ”
Wang Mazi showed a satisfied smile on his face, nodded and said: "I believe you also know that General Ben has commanded this heavy cavalry battalion before, but do you know how powerful this heavy cavalry battalion is?" ”
Huang Zilong smiled and said: "With such a brave commander as General Wang, the combat power is naturally ......" His face suddenly turned red, as if he had thought of something, and quickly stopped his mouth, his face was extremely embarrassed.
The heavy cavalry battalion has a nickname, called the "old, weak, sick and disabled camp", which has already spread throughout the rebel army, how could he not know? The horse's fart slapped the horse's leg, and he was immediately panicked!
Wang Mazi's face had already become gloomy, Huang Zilong's heart "chuckled", a bean-sized cold sweat came out of the corner of his forehead with a "brush", he looked at Wang Mazi timidly, and his expression became more and more nervous.
Wang Mazi squinted at him coldly, suddenly laughed, waved his hand and said, "It's okay!" Who doesn't know that this heavy cavalry battalion is the mud that can't support the wall, even if this general has the ability, there is no way! ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Huang Zilong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and echoed Wang Mazi with a smile.
Li Daniu glared at Wang Mazi, panting constantly, with indescribable anger in his heart!
At the beginning of the establishment of the heavy cavalry battalion, the Tang soldiers were swept away, and it could be described as invincible, but it was a pity that once they encountered the Tang army Modao battalion, the elite of the heavy cavalry battalion and the captain were all killed, Wang Mazi took the opportunity to take power, and the heavy cavalry battalion became a "camp for the old, weak, sick and disabled!" ”
And Li Daniu was one of the soldiers who joined the battalion at the beginning of the establishment of the heavy cavalry battalion.
Now that he sees Wang Mazi with such a thick skin, he actually reverses black and white, how can he not be angry.
Li Daniu's face became darker and darker, and he was about to have a seizure, but he was suddenly pressed on the shoulder, and he turned his head to look.
I saw Fang Chengtian standing beside him expressionlessly, shook his head at him and said, "Let's go, why bother to be like a dog!" ”
Li Daniu nodded, looked at Wang Mazi and snorted, and followed Fang Chengtian to the edge of the pit.
Wang Mazi's face changed greatly, and he shouted angrily: "Okay! Good! You dare to insult General Ben, come on, take him down to General Ben! ”
