Chapter 767: General Order
Qiu Baiyu sighed: "These soldiers are different from other armies in the Tang Dynasty, most of them are child slaves, they have suffered countless hardships since they were young, and after being bought by Dingguo Gong with money, Dingguo Gong helped them eliminate their lowly status, helped them find their lost homes, and treated them like brothers." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Speaking of this, Qiu Baiyu suddenly asked, "I heard that Hou Jie and Dingguo Gong grew up together?" ”
Zhou Bo nodded and said: "That's right, they are all orphans, they grew up together, and their relationship is indeed not ordinary!" ”
"No wonder, Hou Jie is instilling in them every day the idea of living and dying for the master, how can these children not be loyal to the Duke of Dingguo? But with this loyalty, you can imagine how much combat power these people will burst out when they go to the battlefield!
"If you think that your master is only trying to buy their hearts, and that he is pretending, then you are very mistaken?" Zhou Bo retorted: "In order to find the families of these children, the master even sent people to the Western Regions many times, spending tens of thousands of taels of silver, how can ordinary people do this?" These children are not only loyal, but also Dingguogong's incredible training methods, if they weren't in it, who would have thought that the Luzhou group training trained by this method would be so powerful? ”
Qiu Baiyu couldn't help but nod when he heard this, but said a little gloomily: "It's a pity that we are only participating in a battle that is doomed to failure. ”
Zhou Bo shook his head and said: "Don't be too pessimistic, I don't think so, a powerful army, coupled with a smart commander, any miracle can happen!" Isn't it? ”
Qiu Baiyu was about to speak, but he heard Zhou Bo say hurriedly: "It's not good, there is a situation!" ”
Sure enough, the group ahead stopped, and several scouts hurried back to the group.
Zhang Bao'er briefly listened to the scout's reply, frowned, and shouted: "Order, list the defensive formation on the spot, and the cavalry team will attack quickly." ”
The herald quickly blew the horn and gave the order backwards.
A moment after the horn sounded, all the carriages stopped, and the men in soap clothes sprang into action. There were those who unloaded the wheels from the horses, those who carried things from the carts, those who drove piles, and those who dug earth. In short, although it was busy, there was no disorder at all.
At the same time, more than 200 cavalry members of the Luzhou Regiment trained cavalry and roared forward like a lightning speed.
……
Li Sijing looked at the more than 20 people in front of him, his face was pale, there were hundreds of people in the personal guards, and they were actually stopped here by the other party, and they couldn't move for half a minute, wouldn't it be too embarrassing to spread the word.
Li Sijing's personal soldiers were the best ones carefully selected from the 30,000 army, and all of them were extraordinary. However, the archery skills of these people on the other side were so good that none of the arrows shot missed. They only shot horses, not people, and in just one cup of tea, more than 20 horses were shot to the ground.
It stands to reason that there are many people on Li Sijing's side, so he should not suffer. But they used horn bows, while the other party used the best grid bow of the Tang army, and the range was twenty or thirty steps farther than their own side.
The archery skills of the soldiers are inferior to those of men, and the range of bows and arrows is inferior to that of men, and they are destined to have only dry eyes. Fortunately, the other party's intention was only to stop the enemy, but not to hurt anyone. Otherwise, these people under Li Sijing would probably have been covered with corpses all over the place.
"General, what to do now." Li Sijing's pro-guard captain asked.
Li Sijing gritted his teeth and said: "The whole team is charging left and right, and we must take them down." ”
Li Sijing was ready to use the numerical advantage to use the cavalry to overwhelm these scouts in one fell swoop.
"Yes!" The captain of the guard answered.
"Wait!" Li Sijing added: "Try to catch them alive, don't hurt people!" ”
Although he couldn't get over face, Li Sijing didn't want to stiffen the relationship with Zhang Bao'er, the Duke of Dingguo, because of this matter. Although Li Sijing has not dealt with Zhang Baoer, he has also heard that this Dingguo Gong is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Besides, just because Xue Ne attached great importance to this trip, he also felt that Zhang Bao'er was unusual.
Before the captain of the pro-guard had time to carry out Li Sijing's order, he shouted: "General, look! ”
Li Sijing had also noticed something unusual, and saw that not far away, a group of cavalry was rushing towards them.
In the blink of an eye, the cavalry was in sight.
The leader shouted to the scouts: "On the orders of the regiment, the scouts will quickly return to the camp, and the battlefield here will be taken over by the cavalry." ”
One of the scouts responded, "The scout team takes the order." ”
With that, the two dozen scouts turned their horses and left, leaving only the cavalry that had just arrived.
Li Sijing hugged his fists towards the man led by him and said: "Li Sijing, the general of the right guard, came to meet the Luzhou regimental training on the order of the Grand Governor!" ”
The leader did not return the salute, but asked coldly, "Is there an order from the Metropolitan Governor?" ”
"This ......" Li Sijing came with Xue Ne, how could there be an order.
"Is there a general order from the Grand Governor?" The leader asked again.
"Nope!" Li Sijing had no choice but to be honest.
"Take them all, you want to live!" The man viciously gave the order to the cavalry who came with him.
……
Xue Ne and his entourage waited left and right, but they never saw Li Sijing welcome Zhang Bao'er's return.
Wang Haibin asked Xue Ne softly: "Metropolitan Governor, something is wrong, General Li has been gone for so long, why hasn't he come back?" ”
An Bozhu reminded on the side: "Xue Shuai, I remember that you once mentioned to me that the Dingguo Gonggong army is stricter than you, will it ......?"
Xue Ne couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, as if he remembered something, and shouted: "It's not good, go quickly, something will happen if it's too late!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Xue Ne rode his horse and galloped forward.
An Bozhu, Li Kailuo, Cui Xuandao and Wang Haibin also took their own personal soldiers and hurriedly followed with their horses.
Xue Ne and the others galloped for more than ten miles, and saw a group of cavalry waiting in front of them from a distance
Xenne slowed down his horse first.
"Whoever comes, dismount quickly, or you will release the arrows!" A bell-like voice came from the other side.
"This handsome is ......"
As soon as Xue Ne's words came out, a white feather arrow with the sound of the wind had been nailed to three feet in front of Xue Ne's horse's hooves, and Xue Ne's horse was shocked by the two front hooves hanging in the air, almost throwing Xue Ne off his horse.
"Presumptuous!"
Wang Haibin was furious when he saw this, and he wanted to immediately go forward to teach these regimental training soldiers who did not know the height of the sky.
"Come back! Dismount! Xue Ne's low voice of rebuke came.
"What?" Wang Haibin was stunned.
"Why are you still stunned, get off the horse quickly!" As he spoke, Xue Ne had already taken the lead in dismounting.
An Bozhu didn't say a word, and then dismounted.
Although Li Kailuo, Cui Xuandao and Wang Haibin didn't know what Xue Ne meant, they didn't dare to say much when they saw him with a solemn face, and they all dismounted, and the cavalry behind them also dismounted, standing motionless.
