Chapter 192: Maybe I'm Wrong for Him
Two horses rushed over, extremely fast, and the muddy water rolled up by the horses' hooves was overwhelming. γFengyun Reading Networkγ
On the war horse, Huo Ran sat Sun Yuan and Fei Hong.
Sun Yuan naturally knew Lu Xiangsheng, he was taken aback, hurriedly jumped off the war horse with Fei Hong, stood in front of Lu Xiangsheng, and gave a salute: "The last general, Sun Yuan, an officer of thousands of households in Weining Township, Dahe, will meet Inspector Lu. With armor on his body, he can't bow fully, and he asks the overseer to forgive his sins. β
The status of the military attache in the Ming Dynasty was low, and Sun Yuan had no fame, so he knelt down and kowtowed when he saw Lu Xiangsheng according to the rules. However, as a modern person, Sun Yuan still feels that kowtow is really a little unaccustomed. Unless it is compelled to do so, it can be exempted. Even in the army, he was not used to his subordinates bowing down to him.
"Armor?" Huang You, who was beside Lu Xiangsheng, smiled coldly: "Sun Yuan is rude. β
For the small thousand-household officer in front of him, Huang You has been famous for a long time. Last time, the so-called Qingliuguan victory, he also heard Lu Xiangsheng say it, so he naturally refused to believe it. However, the army really needs this victory to boost morale, and Lu Xiangsheng is also very humble outside the battlefield, and he doesn't want to do anything with Sun Yuan.
But as the chief staff of Inspector Lu, Huang You is still not angry: You just want to take the risk yourself, and you still want to involve the Inspector, saying that this great victory is the arrangement of the Governor. Hehe, who is the overseer, and it is rare to have this imaginary feat?
Huang You's old man was born and has followed Lu Xiangsheng for many years, and he can be said to have read countless people, and his eyes are so sharp. After just one glance at Sun Yuan, he knew that this was an unreliable villain. The man stood there, his eyes rolling, clearly scheming. What else do you say with armor on your body, hehe, you only wear a sleeveless short cotton armor, and it's not a heavy armor, and you're afraid that you won't be able to stand up when you kneel?
"Get up." Lu Xiangsheng glanced at Huang You out of the corner of his eye, nodded at Sun Yuan, and motioned for him to calm down.
Huang You was observing Sun Yuan, and Lu Xiangsheng's gaze also fell on Sun Yuan and his subordinates.
The last time he came to Andaying, he had seen Sun Yuan once. However, it was in public, and he didn't say a few words, and he didn't know much about this Sun Qianhu.
Seeing that Sun Yuan refused to kneel and worship, and his eyes kept glancing at himself and the ground, Lu Xiangsheng's heart suddenly moved: This Sun Yuan dislikes the mud on the ground and is afraid of dirty clothes.
Discovering this, Lu Xiangsheng felt a lot of bad feelings in his heart.
Leading soldiers to fight, sleeping in the open, scooping food with a horse spoon with soldiers, where is there so much exquisiteness. Even if he Lu Xiang was promoted to the governor of the five provinces, his life was very hard. It has been two months since the people did not dismantle their armor, and they all had lice on their bodies. A small Qianhu refuses to give a salute to his boss just because the ground is dirty, which shows that this person is also arrogant and lascivious, and he is not worthy of being a soldier at all.
Sun Yuan didn't know that he was unwilling to kneel, this detail caused Lu Xiangsheng and Huang You to be unhappy, he was not afraid of dirty, but he was unwilling to kneel easily. Hearing Lu Xiangsheng call himself up, how unwilling he was, he hurriedly straightened up and said with a smile: "Thank you, Inspector." β
It's okay if he doesn't smile, but when he laughs, it gives people a sense of oily tone.
Huang You scolded loudly: "Sun Yuan, just now your general said that the Ningxiang army got the military order from Fan Butang and ordered your army to go to the old camp to meet and participate in tomorrow's decisive battle?" β
Sun Yuan: "Exactly. β
Hurriedly took out Fan Jingwen's warrant from his arms, held it with both hands, and handed it over.
Huang You took Lu Xiangsheng one step ahead, glanced at it, and returned it to Sun Yuan, and then nodded to Lu Xiangsheng: "Supervisor, it is Fan Butang's warrant." Supervisor Supervisor ......"
turned his head to look, but found that Lu Xiangsheng's gaze fell curiously on the strangely long spears in Ning Xiangjun's hand.
The Ningxiang army was still marching forward, because the ground was so rotten, and so many soldiers were crowded on an official road. Many soldiers are taking one step and sliding three steps. Stumbling and hitting each other, some people directly put their spears on the ground as crutches, and for a while, the flags were chaotic, and the team did not look good.
The spears, which were more than five meters long, looked extremely cumbersome and ridiculous in the hands of the soldiers.
One soldier was about unsteady, fell to the ground with a thud, and slid out more than a meter away. The spear in his hand fell, striking directly into the head of the other person.
The Ningxiang army was poor, and the soldiers were bareheaded and had no helmets. The tip of the spear suddenly cut the man's forehead, and the blood was smearing his face.
The wounded man screamed, threw away his long weapon, and crouched down with his face covered.
As soon as he crouched down, the marching soldiers behind him collided, and the ranks began to disorganize slightly. For a time, the narrow official road was crowded together.
"This is the invincible heroic division of the Qingliu Pass victory?" Huang You sneered sarcastically.
Sun Yuan also felt very embarrassed, and shook his head unconsciously: after all, they are all recruits, and half a month's training is useless.
Lu Xiangsheng suddenly asked: "Sun Yuan, the weapons of the Ningxiang Army are so strange, why is this spear so long?" β
Sun Yuan: "If you go back to the superintendent, my Ningxiang army used to be musketeers, and the last time in the battle of Qingliuguan, because the musketeers had no hand-to-hand combat ability, they suffered a big loss after being approached by the enemy. It can be seen that if the musketeer wants to play his due role, he must distance himself from the enemy. Later, the general thought about it, and drew a thousand men from the captives to form a spearmen, and when fighting, put the spearmen in front of the musket team as protection, so that they would not be scattered by the enemy. β
"So, the spearmen are all your captives?" Huang You asked.
"Exactly, there are about a thousand of them." Sun Yuan replied.
"Hehe, in front of Inspector Lu, you dare to lie?" Huang You scolded: "Bold Sun Yuan, look at your thousand spearmen, they are all strong men of about twenty or so, if you are in the thief army, at least you are the main force." Don't be like I don't know anything, if you want to pick out a thousand elites from the captives, you need to capture at least ten thousand thieves. β
Sun Yuan's face was confused: "Yes, my Ningxiang Army has captured 10,000 thieves this time!" β
"It's hard to talk about." Huang You's face flashed with green energy, and he was about to say more.
At this time, because of the confusion that had already arisen in the ranks, another knight came running from that side and shouted, "What's the matter? β
This person is none other than Chen Tieshan, the military judge of Ningxiang Army.
He didn't speak loudly, but strangely enough, when several soldiers who had fallen to the ground and rolled like mud monkeys suddenly jumped up from the ground like an electric shock and ran back to the group in despair.
The team that had just been in a mess immediately straightened up.
In the past half a month, the recruits of the Ningxiang Army have suffered a lot from Chen Tieshan, and when they hear his voice, it is like falling into an ice cave.
"Orders and prohibitions, military law is like a mountain, but there is something interesting." Lu Xiangsheng's heart moved, and he suddenly became interested in the Ningxiang Army.
He waved his hand: "Sun Yuan, you go down and report to Fan Butang as soon as possible." β
"Yes." Sun Yuan gave up his hand again, jumped on the war horse, and went far.
"Inspector, why did you just let him go. Late life is going to teach this liar a lesson today? Huang You asked puzzled.
Lu Xiangsheng smiled faintly: "It is also common in the army to ask for rewards for meritorious service, so it's not surprising." Huang You, your personality is too straightforward, and I am afraid that you will suffer a big loss in the future. This is a person and a worker, pay attention to the combination of rigidity and softness, and know how to be round. It's just a bit of credit, it's harmless, and the clear water pond doesn't raise fish. β
Hearing him say such things, Huang You was surprised. In his mind, he has already regarded Inspector Lu Du as his mentor. On the battlefield, Lu Xiangsheng likes to charge ahead. In every battle, if a soldier is stagnant, it will not be forgiving. Therefore, he got the name of King Luyan.
But I don't want to, after coming to Chuzhou this time, he is very gentle in doing things, which is not like him!
Huang You was still unconvinced: "For the sake of fame and fortune, this person actually wants to give credit to the superintendent, and he doesn't look at who he is, is he worthy?" The name of the overseer is ruined, and the end is hateful. β
As he was talking, the spearmen of the Ningxiang Army had already finished, followed by the musket troops.
Because of the rain, the muskets on the backs of Sun Yuanbu's musketeers were wrapped in a tung tarpaulin. These are all veterans of the Ningxiang Army, after half a year of harsh training, and they have seen blood in Qingliu Pass, and their bodies naturally exude a fierce aura.
Unlike the previous mess of spearmen, the group ran in a neat manner, bowing their heads and hurrying without saying a word.
"Hurry, hurry!" The officers kept shouting, and when they encountered a soldier who couldn't walk because the ground was too slippery, they simply stood up and ran.
The world was filled with the sound of neat footsteps, bayonets hitting water hyacinths, and heavy breathing.
The white gas in the mouth and nose spewed out and joined together.
Huang You has followed Lu Xiangsheng for many years, and he is old in battle, and he still has this eyesight.
After just one glance, his face suddenly changed.
Lu Xiangsheng raised his eyes, looked thoughtfully for a long time, and when the team was finished, he laughed in a low voice: "It's a little interesting, it's a little interesting." β
The Ningxiang army had already driven to the edge of Chushui and began to line up to prepare to cross the pontoon bridge.
"Spear on the shoulder." There are officers giving orders.
"Spear on the shoulder!" According to the military regulations of the Ningxiang Army, after the officer gives the order, the soldier must repeat it at the same time.
"Line up to cross the river, go!"
For a moment, thousands of soldiers were shouting in unison, like a muffled thunder rolling on a sunny day. Startled, Lu Xiangsheng and the others' war horses neighed and raised their front hooves high.
Looking closely, thousands of spears were placed on their shoulders at the same time, as if a dense forest had grown in the flat ground. The procession, which had previously seemed to be scattered, resembled a tofu block, and at the orders of the officer, it walked neatly towards the water.
"They're going to wade across the river?" One of the guards whispered.
Squad after team descended into the water, walking so slowly and inexorably toward the opposite shore as if there was a broad road ahead.
For a while, there was a feeling of being unstoppable and powerless.
Huang You's face turned red, and he opened his mouth wide: "How come, how come, this soldier can be trained like this, wasn't it still so chaotic just now that I can't see it?" β
Lu Xiangsheng's eyes sharpened: "Interesting, interesting!" β
Then he whipped his horse fiercely and rushed forward.
Huang You and the guards were shocked, and chased after them at the same time: "Supervisor, Supervisor, where are you going?" β
Lu Xiangsheng: "Ten miles ahead is Qingliu Pass, let's go over and take a look, perhaps, that Sun Yuanzheng has achieved an unprecedented victory, and I will blame him." β
