Chapter 378: No need
Zuo Fengyi, the northern section of the Yellow River, here is the temporary garrison of the Zhongwei Battalion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 InfoGeneral Nakae Bi is handling his daily military affairs in his tent. At this moment, the herald ran in, "General, Chang'an urgent order!" ”
General Zhongwei put down the pen in his hand, left his seat, and took two steps forward to take the urgent order from the herald.
"The Zhongwei battalion was ordered to build three pontoon bridges over the river within ten days. Three feet wide! ”
After seeing this, General Zhongwei immediately said to the heralds: "Pass my order, and the whole battalion will immediately go out to find a place to cross the river and build three pontoon bridges at once." 100,000 urgent! ”
"No!"
The herald left, but General Zhongwei turned his gaze to the south, and muttered, "My lord, is this about to begin!" ”
At this time, it has not yet entered February, and the Yellow River is in a dry period. Throughout the Yellow River, land is even exposed in some places. Moreover, the already small amount of river water has formed a thick layer of ice, so it is not very difficult to build these three pontoon bridges of the Zhongwei battalion.
Eight days later, to the east of the Zhongwei Battalion's station, above the Yellow River, three pontoon bridges spanned the banks of the Yellow River like three giant dragons.
Four days later, General Zhongwei, who was waiting for the next order, was patrolling the camp, and when he happened to walk near the gate, he suddenly saw a horse coming at a rapid pace from the west. The galloping horses left only a trail of dust in the endless wilderness, proving that they had been imprinted.
In a few moments, the cavalry came to the front of the camp, "What man! Brothers in the barracks, don't trespass, dismount immediately, otherwise you will be killed! ”
"I am the captain of the sentry cavalry under General Huwei's account, and I am here to give orders to General Zhongwei!"
At this moment, the general of the central guard did not go far, so he heard the voice of the sentry horse very clearly! "General Huwei!"
The general of the central guard hurriedly walked to the front of the gate, only to see that the person outside the gate was covered in dust, and the war horse under his crotch was also panting, and the man was holding a token in his hand!
"General, please look at the token!" The sentry rider outside the gate saw the person wearing the armor of the partial general appearing, and immediately threw the token in his hand to the general of the central guard!
General Zhongwei took the token and looked at it, "Dare to ask what the general commands?" ”
"The general asked the Zhongwei battalion to prepare food and forage for 30,000 people at once! In two hours, the army will arrive! ”
"The last general obeys!" General Zhongwei clenched his fists and said in response, and returned the token in his hand to the sentry rider! "This brother should also go into the camp and rest for a while!"
"Thank you to the general, but the subordinates still have to give back to General Huwei, how offended!" The sentry took the token, turned over on his horse, hugged his fist at the general of the central guard, turned the horse's head, and galloped away!
About two hours later, the wide-eyed sentry of the Central Guard Battalion, who had already received the order, spotted a black spot at the corner of a low hill to the west. Then, in the blink of an eye, black spots appeared all over the mountains!
"Woo~Woo~~~"
When General Zhongwei heard the sound of the horn, he immediately came to the gate, and when he came, those black spots had been magnified countless times. Especially those two flags flying in the wind!
The two flags are made of black as the base, and the big red characters are written on them, one of which is written "Zhao", and the other has two words "White Tiger"!
It's a white tiger ride!
General Zhongwei not only had a flutter in his heart, although he was also a battalion general, but the White Tiger Ride, he was really the first time he had seen it.
I saw that in the wilderness on the west side of the Zhongwei camp, countless cavalry lined up in a neat formation, divided into countless columns and marched in unison! And each column of advancing knights is also composed of five horsemen side by side!
Whether the cavalry is elite or not can be seen from the march alone. In the steppes rich in cavalry, many experienced people do not need to look at the flag, but only need to look at the speed of the cavalry to distinguish which tribe it is.
Soon, in the advancing long line, General Zhongwei found a very bright and conspicuous knight. General Zhongwei lowered his head and thought, yes, it must be General Huwei.
In Cao De's army, all armor was black, only Cao De's own armor was purple red and Zhao Yun's armor was bright silver. Therefore, under the light of the sun, Zhao Yun is like a star in the night sky, shining!
"Someone, open the gate and greet the general!" General Zhongwei shouted loudly to his soldiers.
"No!"
After General Zhongwei gave the order, he himself immediately stepped off the gate, stepped on the war horse, and greeted Zhao Yun in the direction!
"The last general meets General Huwei!" General Zhongwei turned over and dismounted, bowed to Zhao Yun, who was riding on a snow-white warhorse, and said.
"Well, the general has worked hard. Have you prepared the meal I asked you to prepare? Zhao Yun nodded, looked up at the sun and said.
"General Hui, it's ready!" General Zhongwei replied.
"Good!" Then, Zhao Yun turned his head and said to the guards behind him: "Pass my general order, let Dang Koulang and Zuo Ying rest first, and after eating, cross the river immediately and be on guard!" ”
"No!" After the guard received the order, he clamped the horse's belly, and the guard immediately galloped away into the distance like an arrow from the string.
"Please enter the camp!" General Zhongwei said to Zhao Yun, who had just finished giving the order.
"No, the soldiers are fast. Today the army will have to cross the river. I have to go to the river and have to bother the general to lead the way. Zhao Yun didn't look like he was going to get off the horse at all.
"No!" Orders are forbidden. Although Zhao Yun has no affiliation with General Zhongwei, in this current situation, Zhao Yun's words are as good as Cao De's words. Except, of course, for the transfer of troops!
General Zhongwei immediately took Zhao Yun to the vicinity of the pontoon bridge, which had just been completed for a few days. All three pontoon bridges were constructed using some of the riverbed that was outcropping. There's even a section of the ice road that goes straight to it. Therefore, a lot of time can be saved.
Zhao Yun looked at the pontoon bridge and said to General Zhongwei Biao behind him: "Three days after the army has all crossed the bridge, if there is no large army to return, you will dismantle all the pontoon bridges." ”
"General, why is that! What if something happens......" General Zhongwei said quickly.
What if something happens in front of you and the army can't come back.
However, Zhao Yun said: "There is nothing in case. As long as there is no army returning within three days, it means that I have gone far. No one should be allowed to take advantage of these three pontoons! ”
"No!" After seeing Zhao Yun's fiery gaze, General Zhongwei could only reluctantly agree.
"Do you know the pontoon bridge that the lord built last year?" Suddenly, Zhao Yun said to General Zhongwei again.
"The last general knows!"
"Well," Zhao Yun nodded, "After dismantling these three pontoon bridges, you will prepare five according to the practice of the lord pontoon bridges back then." When General Ben returns, he may be able to use it! ”
General Zhongwei pondered carefully, and immediately understood what Zhao Yun meant.
So, he immediately responded: "No! However, Zhao Yun, who was still looking at him, found that General Zhongwei was a little bit of a feeling of wanting to speak.
Zhao Yun asked, "Do you have anything else?" ”
General Zhongwei glanced at Zhao Yun, nodded, and said, "The last general wants to set up a war drum and march for the general and his brothers when the general crosses the river!" ”
Zhao Yun smiled slightly and patted General Zhongwei on the shoulder, "No need!" ”
