Chapter 172: Habit of vomiting
Chapter 172 Habitual vomiting
If you only use a big fire to scare out tens of thousands of Maitreya disciples, you will not be able to make them make a lot of noise, and they will only know how to escape and not know how to think. Therefore, Bo Xian Saiyang took 2,000 cavalry and chased after him.
Except for a few big men in the Maitreya sect who had chariots and horses, the rest of the people were all on foot, not that they had not captured war horses and ploughing cattle and the like, but after a starvation, these cattle had already made a home in the belly of the cathars, and it was impossible for them to come out to carry people again.
So half an hour later, the wounded and sick who had fallen behind felt the earth tremble, and the roar of countless horses' hooves on the ground was heard. Before they could react, a group of imposing cavalry, led by a white-robed general armed with a pig iron mace, covered up and killed.
Among the wounded soldiers had seen Chu Qianjun, and at this time they saw a young man holding a barbed mallet. Black Brown Winter, he couldn't see the appearance clearly, and he thought that the killer demon king was here again. The pain on his body seemed to be self-healing all of a sudden, and he ran forward, hating his father and mother for giving birth to two legs.
"The white-clothed devourer is here again......" Naturally, such a shout was indispensable.
Bo Xian Saiyang, who was at the forefront of the team, naturally heard it clearly, gritted his steel teeth and said: "It's too much to deceive people!" "The legs clamped the horse's belly hard, and the jade lion of the night almost hit the sway. Fortunately, the animal was clever, and knew that if he did not run out quickly, he would definitely be beaten, and he rushed out like mad despite the pain. This horse is also a divine horse, and in an instant, he threw out a big section of the team behind him, and Bo Xian Saiyang was angry, no matter what formation and what tactics. Seeing that the jade lion rushed out alone, not angry but happy, just like that, one person and one rode into the battle alone, shouting and smashing into the rout.
It's like a drop of milk dripping into a weed.
Seeing Ma Ai behind him was heartbroken, regardless of the pain on his body, he rode his horse and chased after him. He also urged the team: "Chong, if you miss a hair of the son, Lao Tzu will chop you up!" The cavalrymen hurried their horses to follow.
There was still some distance from Bo Xun Saiyang, and the sprinting cavalry saw a strange scene: they saw that the white horses and white robes that had been submerged in the rout for a moment suddenly appeared again. At the same time, the defeated soldiers around them were like white grass when the north wind swept the ground, and they all folded backwards.
In just one big loop, more than a dozen people were killed under the stick. At this moment, he confirmed his identity as a 'white-clothed man-loving demon', and countless people screamed miserably: "The devourer is here......" and "Two legs have grown...... scattered and fled.
was about to rush to kill for a while, but found that there was no one in the enemy army to fight, and everyone was desperately fleeing. Even if they rushed to the front, these people would not resist, but simply lay on the ground, raising their hands and begging for mercy loudly.
This discovery made Bo Xianyang depressed, and after spitting fiercely, he ran forward, hoping to hit a few hard bones, and it was not in vain that he carried such a major iron lump and ran for more than ten miles.
The cavalry behind followed the mad captain, and they trampled on the past regardless of the surrenderers on the ground. When Qin Lei's infantry army came, he could only see a place of stumps and severed bodies in the shape of a human being, and occasionally a few survivors, but they were all frightened crazy. The infantrymen went to end those pitiful lives with blushing faces, and did not seem to have any affection for the eating appearance of their fellow cavalrymen.
Qin Lei saw the battlefield where the cavalry had ravaged him, touched his chin and pondered for a moment, and said to Qin Youcai: "Let's go down to camp after ten miles of advancement." ”
Qin Youcai was surprised: "Didn't you say that you chased it overnight?" ”
Qin Lei said with a smile: "If you chase after you like this, the enemy will completely break up and find their own mother." Lone wants them all to flee back to Xiangfan, so he has to let them take a breath. Then he looked at the infantry who was already obviously a little tired and said: "And if we march for a long time, we should pay more attention to the combination of work and rest." ”
Qin Youcai conveyed Qin Lei's order, and said with a smile: "Then the prince should send a veteran general to lead that team of cavalry and hand it over to the over-energetic hairy boy of Bo Xian Saiyang, I don't know how many people will be tired to death." ”
Qin Lei shook his head and said: "This is different, Bo Xianyang's tactical goal is to hit that group of cathars and completely crush their courage, so they must use Mount Tai to suppress the top and give the enemy the greatest psychological pressure." And our tactical goal is to drive these people to Xiangfan as much as possible, and there is no need to keep going. After finishing speaking, he was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "As a general, you should always put the tactical goal first in battle, and only under the condition that it does not affect it can you be qualified to talk about anything else." ”
Qin Youcai was awe-inspiring and taught. Since following Qin Lei's side, he has gradually accepted Qin Lei's combat system of careful planning before the war, strict implementation during the war, and summary and feedback after the war. At least he now has a clearer understanding of what stage of the campaign he is in, what he needs to do at each stage, and even the priority of what he needs to do. It's not like the original general command by feeling, and he grabbed his eyebrows and mustaches, and couldn't distinguish between priority and priority.
Qin Lei and the others don't seem to be slow, but in fact, because the sergeants are well rested and always energetic, their speed is not bad. It was easy to hang behind the defeated army of the Maitreya Sect, which had become a frightened bird, and as soon as they wanted to stop and rest, they pounced on it and bit it fiercely, leaving hundreds of lives. The forced Maitreya army had to rush for its life and could not rest for a moment.
If it weren't for the fact that it was only four or five days away from Xiangfan, I am afraid that these Maitreya disciples would have been tossed by Qin Lei and all of them would have fallen to the side of the road, and their souls would return to Elysium. So when they finally saw the tall and wide walls of Xiangyang Mansion, the crazy ecstasy was understandable. So when they finally moved under the city gate with the last of their strength, only to find that they couldn't open the gate after all the screams, the despair and anger were understandable.
Of course, the defenders in the city will not open the door to them, and there are as many as 200,000 religious people who have fled into the city these days, plus the original 200,000, these 400,000 mouths have eaten Xiangyang City cleanly, and it is said that even His Majesty no longer eats meat......
Gong Liangyu did not eat meat anymore, but not because of the lack of food in the city. No matter how short they are below, they will not be able to lack their heads and brains for the time being. A few days ago, he left the palace on a whim and wanted to see what his people ate. I went into several restaurants, only to find that these restaurants only served meat. Curious, I ordered a few signature dishes, and after tasting a few chopsticks, I found that these dishes were bland and tasteless.
Do you want to eat this dish without salt in the meat? Gong Liangyu suddenly lost his appetite. But he is also a person who does not suffer losses, and thinks to himself, this money has also been spent, if he doesn't eat it like this, wouldn't it be too cheap for them. No, I'll have to eat a few more chopsticks. So he forced himself to eat some more, and when he felt that he couldn't eat it, he was unwilling to put down his chopsticks and went back to the palace.
When it was time to eat in the evening, he lost his appetite and couldn't eat the dishes on the table. Prime Minister Hu Cheng, who accompanied him to dinner, diligently asked the reason, and he said about going out of the palace to eat. As a result, before Prime Minister Hu Cheng finished listening, he couldn't help but retreat, and vomited before he walked out of the hall door.
The little palace maid who was waiting on the side also turned pale, covering her mouth and looking like she was pregnant. Even Uncle Chai, who has always been unruly, put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand for the first time, got up and left the table.
Although Gong Liangyu looked a lot stupid after becoming the 'emperor', his brain has not yet rusted. immediately understood that he had eaten something bad at noon, pulled the little palace maid who was about to escape, and finally got the answer he wanted......
"It's better to stay in the dark for the rest of your life......" This sentence would pop up in his mind from time to time afterwards. After that, he was bedridden for three days, and he also fell into the root of habitual vomiting, as soon as he heard those two words, or even any of them, he would vomit incessantly until he vomited all the yellow water.
Looking at the miserable appearance of his blank eyes and skeletal shape in the mirror, Gong Liangyu stretched out his chicken-like hand, stroked his already somewhat awkward face, and muttered: "Is this still the most beautiful man in the world who is handsome and handsome?" ”
Prime Minister Hu Cheng, who came to perform on the side, couldn't help but feel sick to his stomach. He didn't have any problems, but he just couldn't stand this narcissistic hysteria. Since that incident, His Majesty has become more and more nervous and out of tune.
Helplessly, the matter was really tricky, so he could only ask: "What should I do at this time, and ask the emperor to show me." ”
Only then did Gong Liangyu come back to his senses and said, "What's the matter?" ”
With a groan in his heart, Prime Minister Hu Cheng had to repeat: "It's the problem of the people outside the city, a lot of their silver was sent out from Xiangyang City, and naturally there is still family silver in the city." Now all this silver is in trouble. "It's not that Prime Minister Hu Cheng's tongue is hypertrophied, but in order to avoid His Majesty's habit of vomiting repeatedly, now the entire palace has unified the caliber, 'people' are said to be 'silver', and 'meat' is said to be 'young'.
Gong Liangyu listened, 'oh', turned his head again, twisted a puff from the powder box on the table, and patted it lightly on his cheek. It wasn't until his sallow face was completely covered up that he whispered: "Kill them all." He stretched out his hand and pointed at Prime Minister Hu Cheng, and said slightly: "A little trouble for the people will also cause trouble, what's the use?" As he spoke, he began to count the new little eunuchs in the palace who didn't understand the rules, the dishes made by the cook were too light recently, and it was too noisy outside last night, so he had dark circles under his eyes today, etc., etc. It's like a resentful woman who wants to be dissatisfied, chattering and whining.
Prime Minister Hu lowered his head, as if he was ashamed of what Gong Liangyu said, but in fact, he just didn't dare to look at his cocked orchid fingers. After Gong Liangyu finished complaining, he said in a muffled voice: "It's a little too late to kill now, these silver friends are connected to each other, there are already forty or fifty thousand silver people, and the palace is surrounded by water, saying that if you don't give an explanation, you will ......."
"What's that?" Gong Liangyu stomped his foot and asked sharply.
"I'm going to rush in and ask you in person." Prime Minister Hu Cheng said a little anxiously. He himself was trapped in the palace, so this time there was no pretense in his hurry.
Gong Liangyu didn't seem to be worried, and asked lightly: "Why didn't your brothers in life and death come to the rescue?" ”
Prime Minister Hu Cheng's face was stunned, and he said in his heart, who cares about you? They can't wait to see you laugh. He could only say: "They perform their own duties, and they have no time to separate." If he hadn't owed too much wine, he wouldn't have spent all day in the palace to avoid debts, so he didn't expect anyone to save him.
Gong Liangyu glanced at the chubby Prime Minister Hu Cheng with a mocking face, and sneered: "I thought they wouldn't ignore you." ”
Prime Minister Hu Cheng was very angry when he ascended, and if it wasn't for the sake of pulling people to hold a court meeting for you, would Lao Tzu be able to owe so many debts? Can you offend all the old guys? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sneer: "There are all loyal believers of His Majesty outside, as long as you show up and say it, they will naturally be obedient and obedient, what do you want my rough brothers to do?" ”
Gong Liangyu still said with a mocking face: "If you want to do everything, you will bow in person, what do you want to do?" You are limited to half a day to disperse the silver tide, otherwise you will not be spared. With that, he turned around and walked to the door.
Seeing that he was so prevaricating, and he looked like he should be like this, he couldn't help but be angry, turned around and bowed deeply to Gongliangyu, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will not throw you 'people'!" ”
Gong Liangyu, who was still smiling, heard the word 'person', turned around angrily and pointed at Prime Minister Hu Cheng and said: "Be bold ......" Before the words fell, he habitually vomited again.
At the same time as Gongliangyu bent over and vomited. In the newly erected Zhennan Army camp outside Xiangyang City, Qin Lei saw Yang Wenyu, who was already familiar to him, for the first time. I saw that he was of medium stature, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and he was not handsome, if it weren't for those bright eyes, I am afraid that he would never be found again if he was thrown into the pile.
To Qin Lei's surprise, this Yang Wenyu was so young that he only looked like he was about thirty. To be the commander of the 50,000 elite Zhennan Army at this age is probably not something that Ancestor Yu Yin alone can say, and he has not heard of any big lords surnamed Yang in the military world.
And Yang Wenyu was also surprised by Qin Lei's youth, he could never have imagined that a guy who could take advantage of the chaos in the south to dominate the military and government of the south, play with the gentry of the two provinces, and formulate such a detailed and feasible combat strategy, actually looked less than twenty years old.
The two can't help but have a good impression of each other, which may be the legendary sympathy.
After a short greeting, Yang Wenyu, who made a special trip to meet him, reported the deployment of the team to Qin Lei: "After the last general entered Jiangbei from Shannan, he followed the strategy formulated by the prince, forced but not annihilated, and drove the Maitreya rebels out of the northern provinces, and finally rushed into Fancheng eight days ago, and then completed the encirclement of it. ”
Qin Lei said approvingly: "Very good, Wen Yu, you never discount the execution of tactical orders, which makes Gu very relieved and relieved." ”
Yang Wenyu thanked him appropriately and didn't show much excitement. Qin Lei, who was watching, nodded secretly, and said in his heart, he did have a bit of a general's demeanor that was not shocked, more than a grade higher than Qin Youcai's yellow-bearded bandit.
Although he praised it in his heart, he still said lightly on his face: "I don't know how many troops you need to surround Fancheng?" ”
This kind of question naturally couldn't be difficult for Yang Wenyu, but he still thought about it seriously, and then said slowly: "If you besiege but not attack, 30,000 people are enough." ”
Qin Lei asked again, "What about Xiangyang?"
Yang Wenyu still thought about it for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "If it is still besieged but not attacked, only 20,000 people are needed." "Xiangyang is the former capital of Jiangbei, surrounded by water on three sides, backed by mountains on one side, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but correspondingly, it is also easy to catch turtles in the urn. It was he who said that.
Qin Lei continued to ask: "With your 50,000 people, can you surround these two cities for six days?" ”
Yang Wenyu pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "The last general can do it." ”
Qin Lei clapped his hands and said: "Wen Yu is indeed extraordinary, and you should be the first in the aftermath." ”
Only then did Yang Wenyu get up and thank the prince for his love, and then said unhurriedly: "Please forgive the prince for talking too much." ”
Qin Lei nodded and said with a smile: "When the Lone King discusses the military situation, he still won't hold grudges, so you just say it." ”
Yang Wenyu then asked: "I just accompanied the prince to patrol the camp, and found that our two thousand cavalry troops were not in the camp, dare to ask the prince, where did they go?" ”
Qin Lei laughed and said, "Do you still want to ask, let us defend the city, what are you more than 10,000 people going to do?" ”
Yang Wenyu looked embarrassed and said: "This is slightly different from the battle plan issued by the prince in advance, so my subordinates have this question." Please forgive the king. ”
Qin Lei waved his hand and said, "I don't blame it, don't ask for my mother-in-law." As he spoke, he raised his head, looked in the direction of Xiangyang Lake in the east, and said in a deep voice: "Between the second and third phases of the battle, there is still a hidden mission, because it is a top secret, so it is inconvenient to write it into the combat strategy, so I am alone here to convey it orally." ”
Yang Wenyu stood up solemnly when he heard this, and stood upright, waiting for Qin Lei's words.
"The lone king will lead Qin Youcai's troops eastward into the Xiangyang Lake Naval Army, arrest the key criminals who stole the top-secret drawings of our naval division, and if necessary, suppress their subordinates. After the work is completed, return within six days. Order your department to strictly guard against Xiangfan, allow you to enter but not to go out, and not let one of the two cities escape! ”
Yang Wenyu slapped his right hand on his left breastplate, gave a Daqin standard military salute, and said loudly: "The last general will be ordered!" ”
