Chapter 691: Change

Ombuhong's heart rose to his throat, he wanted to rush over immediately and tell the young man to flee quickly, he had just heard the argument between Nie Lei and Zhou Yao, and knew that this time Zhou Yao, the killing god, was not going to kill all the shepherds here, as long as this kid didn't resist or escaped, it would be fine...... Unfortunately, it was too late, and when Ombuhon saw the muzzle of the gun spew fire, the Mongolian boy on the horse burst with blood on his chest, and he tried not to fall off the horse, but when his face turned pale, the boy finally fell from the horse, and behind him was the earth-shattering cry of a woman. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Oh my God, why is he so stupid......" Omubuhong hugged his head and squatted on the ground.

At this time, he still couldn't understand that if a nation was all aristocrats like him who knew the times, and there was no teenager who dared to resist under absolute disadvantage, the basis for the existence of the entire nation would no longer exist.

"Kill!"

Although the new order was to spare women and children, and to capture men alive, the lancers took their lives without mercy as soon as the shepherds showed the slightest sign of resistance.

A man who did not obey the order and crouched down may have been too afraid, but the lancers would not have the strength to judge, and killing in such a situation would not destroy the sense of honor of the soldiers, and the old bell who chased after the past may still enjoy this kind of killing.

The saber slashed, and the head flew into the sky.

A little girl was standing in the middle of the meadow, surrounded by many lying corpses, Lu Si saw it, and rode around the little girl to prevent the red-eyed comrades from taking her life.

The felt bags around them burned, giving off a pungent smell, and black smoke curling up, giving a completely different feeling from the white smoke rising at dusk.

At this time, Zhou Yao rode to the front, Nie Lei and other officers followed, and Ombuhong also followed.

This pasture has been penetrated, the cavalry began to look for the shepherds who were hiding, both men, women and children rushed together, the Mongols did not know what fate would happen to them, people wept, some believers knelt down and prayed, this is a large pasture, several lamas were also in the crowd, they tried their best to comfort the crying crowd, the lamas were not flustered, and Yusheng showed very obvious in last year's war, as long as the lamas did not make trouble for them, they could be at peace with each other.

The cavalry was also forbidden to plunder without permission, which was strictly forbidden last year, and if they set fire to it and then loot, it would be goodbye to the horse thieves.

Of course, last year's horse thieves also had additional rewards, much more generous than military salaries, and everyone knows why.

Zhou Yao had a clear understanding, and glanced at Nie Lei again, he turned to the soldiers at this time, and shouted: "Don't care about the people first, drive the cattle, sheep and horses together...... If a sheep dies, you won't want to eat a bite of meat tonight. ”

The lancers are accustomed to the style of regimental command, Zhou Yao is not vicious, at least on the surface, even now when shouting, he is not full of swear words and yelling like other officers, but he said that if he doesn't give you meat, then don't want to drink a mouthful of meaty broth, under this threat, the soldiers are extremely cautious, and many soldiers who have not been commanded have also stepped forward one after another, and drove the sheep and a small number of cattle and horses in the pasture of Nuoda together.

Everyone was satisfied with the results before them, the flock was at least thirty thousand heads, and when they were grazing and gaining fat, they looked fat and strong, and the horses were still a little thin, but there were many of them, and there should be more than a thousand, and the number of cattle was the least, but there were several hundred.

This is a lot of wealth, especially ploughing cattle and horses, more expensive than sheep, cattle prices have already risen, even if and Yusheng got a lot of cattle last year, the number of ploughing cattle is still seriously insufficient, think about this year to open hundreds of thousands of acres of land, this is the lowest goal, you know how big the number of cattle you need.

Because of the large number of purchases by He Yusheng, even the price of cattle in the Xuanfu area of Datong has risen, and even affected the Jingshi.

"Take good care of it." Zhou Yao assigned three companies to take care of these cattle and sheep, and the people from the military and political department would arrive in a few days, and the army handed over the cattle and sheep, recorded the numbers, and the great work was done.

"Get fifty heads...... No, a hundred sheep come out. Zhou Yao instructed again: "Boil mutton and drink mutton soup." ”

Everyone cheered.

Before dark, the battlefield was basically cleaned, the felt bags that should be burned were burned out, the lancers carried their own tents, and the accompanying light carriages were loaded with a lot of tarpaulin tents, the quality was no worse than the felt bags that the herdsmen had worked hard to erect, at least there was no problem with wind and rain, as for the wolves, thousands of people were here, and the wolves did not have the idea of being stupid enough to fight these bloody and murderous soldiers.

The cooks did not use the cooking cart to cook, they dug dozens of stoves in front of a dirt slope, put a large iron pot, and sent some lancers to help, and everyone laughed and killed the sheep and skinned them, and the skin should of course be as complete as possible, and a whole sheepskin jacket should be sold for two taels of silver a piece, and it must not be wasted.

The air was filled with the smell of blood and the aroma of meat, and Lu Si felt that he had no appetite at all. Because the battle had already ended, the cavalry had taken off their iron armor, and some still kept the inner chain mail or cotton armor in case of emergency, and more people took off all their armor and wore only military jackets or simply took off only the lining.

After the meat was cooked, the knights began to beat the meat and soup in tin pots and ate them separately.

Lao Zhong sat on the side of Lu Si, and while drinking soup and eating meat, he said, "Boy, hurry up and eat and drink, otherwise how will you recover your strength." ”

He took another big bite, and said with a smile: "Damn, I ate mutton in the grassland for more than half a year last year, and I said that I will never eat it again in my life, and now I still feel very fragrant when I eat it, and I am really cheap." ”

Lu Si shook his head and said, "It's really a little unbearable......"

Before the words fell, Lao Zhong slapped him in the face, with great force, and made a loud bang.

The cavalry all around saw it, the veterans were still eating and drinking, and the recruits were looking at this side.

"I don't know how you kid got the medal," Lao Zhong sat down to drink soup after playing, Lu Si touched his cheeks and looked dazed, Lao Zhong said lightly: "If you don't want to be embarrassed by your medal, hurry up and give me food and drink." A soldier must not only be able to fight and kill, but also be able to eat, and if you can't eat, you won't be able to wield a knife in the next battle, and you will either say that you will retire from the army and go home to farm, or you will fuck me hard. ”

Lu Si didn't speak, picked up his jar, and took a big bite to eat and drink.

"Hmph," Lao Zhong snorted with satisfaction, and then muttered: "Zhou Daniu, this dog's day, with Lao Tzu's understanding of him, the next battle will definitely send us." ”

Before dark, most of the cavalry were allowed to rest, and two companies of cavalry were to be sent forward to keep watch and search, and the cavalry sent out would stay awake all night until a day or two later a company would be sent out to replace them.

This pasture is a very important large pasture, and there are still many remnants of the northern captives who fled during the daytime fighting, and they are full of resentment and resentment, but it is conceivable that they will not retreat far away, and they should seize every opportunity to try to harass the lancers, and the companies sent out will surely face the trouble of cavalry guerrilla harassment warfare in their drowsiness and exhaustion.

Sure enough, when it was almost dark, Tangma sent a new military order, and the two companies that had fought during the day were sent out to patrol the mission, and their mission time will be maintained until tomorrow night, and everyone has a solemn face, which means that they will not have any chance to rest until dark tomorrow, at most they can have a few short breaks, and more time will be used for patrolling and fighting.

It is also close to the Xitao area, and it is very likely that the Taobu Mongols will come over with some fresh troops, elite armor and a large number of herdsmen who dare to fight.

Once encountered, only the camera moves, and if there are too many enemies, you will have to retreat shamefully.

In a short period of time, he fought continuously, marched in a state of exhaustion, retreated or fled, or even fled for his life.

One of the two company commanders is a horse thief, he doesn't care, this kind of intensity of combat is of course much harder than training, but as a horse thief, he has experienced a lot of such things, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong.

The other one came out of the military academy in Li Zhuang, of course, he also experienced many actual battles, he felt that Zhou Yao had done a little too much, but the military order was a military order, and the commander of this company planned to complain to the Military Judge Advocate General Department after the war, and asked the military law collegial panel to discuss Zhou Yao's command, of course, no matter what the result, the company commander had no way to stay in the Lancer Regiment.

In the twilight, the slightly tired lancers turned over and got on their horses, they marched with torches, under the gray military robes and red military trousers was a long darkness, the war horses were changed, the spirits were vigorous, the horses' hooves were flying, the horses could not help but jump and march, they wanted to gallop quickly, but the knights felt tired, they kept tightening the reins, and the excited horses were trained to be obedient.

In the distance is still burning felt bags, the sky is low, the starry sky is very low, it seems to be much lower than people's line of sight, it seems that there are many stars at hand, through the raging fire, you can see that there are still some corpses on the ground that have not had time to collect them, they lie on the grass, everything on the grassland has not changed much, only these corpses and the burning fire are silently complaining about something.

"Look," Lao Zhong looked at Lu Si with a tired face, and said quite proudly: "I just said that Zhou Yao of the dog day is this style, which company is used to die, after using it once, the army will die a lot, but the rest can almost be used as usable veterans...... If you kid hadn't eaten and drunk enough, where would you have gotten your mental and physical strength now, you would have fallen off your horse a long time ago. ”

Lu Si didn't answer, he pursed his lips, looking at the burning fire and dead people in the distance, at this moment, he knew that he had had changed the most profoundly.
