Chapter 339: The Stars Shine
"General!"
A burst of bloody gas rushed in at the door, Duan Peng raised his eyes and saw a soldier covered in blood striding in.
Rao knew that this soldier was his subordinate, but when he saw this soldier who looked like a demon reborn in blood, Duan Peng, who was used to killing, couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp.
"What's the matter?" Duan Peng pointed to a broken chair in front of him, signaling that he could sit down and talk.
"The villain doesn't dare!" The soldier smiled, and his bloodstained face showed his white teeth: "Report to the general, there are still five hundred prisoners outside, and General Li asked you how to deal with it?" ”
"Captive?" When Duan Peng heard this, he frowned and said, "We are a landing operation this time, and our mission is to destroy the enemy army. The army will set off again tomorrow, and what prisoners can't be divided to escort? ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, the soldier was stunned for a moment, and looked at General Duan in confusion: "Then, what about these prisoners?" ”
When Duan Peng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. After standing up and walking around twice with his hands behind his back, he looked back at the overwhelmed soldier, raised his chin and said, "You go and tell Li Mochou that Lao Tzu doesn't want to be taken prisoner here, let him take care of it himself!" ”
"Yes!" The soldier scratched his head and turned away.
As soon as the soldier reached the door, he collided with an oncoming man.
The guy who ran over, tall and strong, snorted, like a bison that had taken off his general, and directly knocked the bloodied soldier to the side.
This guy didn't seem to see it, holding a wooden box in his hand, he ran into the house in three or two steps, and said to Duan Peng with an excited face: "General, there's a letter, Captain Wang has a letter!" ”
Hearing this, Duan Peng's confusion just now was suddenly swept away, he strode over, took the wooden box from the soldier who was panting and stopped in front of him, opened it and saw that it was a scroll written of cloth, opened it with trembling hands, and after glancing at the brief battle report on it, he was suddenly stunned.
Beside him, the adjutant general saw General Duan so out of shape, and out of curiosity, he walked over and took a peek.
Just glanced at it, and the look in the general's eyes suddenly burned.
"General Bing, starting from Incheon, the morale of the general is high, all the way to the east, Liank Park Chang Bum, Kim Nam Yong, Kim Xiao Hee, An Qi Division, at present, the cavalry and other mobile troops in the four counties of Yangpyeong, Liju, Seongnam, and Icheon have been wiped out, and the infantry in the Gushin City is only waiting for the general Shenwei cannon to be solved. The military report said that the headquarters of the inferior general had crossed Danyang County and was rapidly advancing towards Taibai County. It is expected that within 15 days, the headquarters of the general will reach the coast of the East China Sea! Wang Gongye! ”
The handwriting is not regular, sloppy, but it is indeed written by Wang Gongye himself. The letter is full of arrogance and indomitable momentum. Between the pen and ink, you can still see the image of the second ancestor who came out of the army and was extremely arrogant.
However, at this moment, Duan Peng found that this arrogant and domineering second ancestor was so cute!
Duan Peng held the hand of the military newspaper, he was trembling, his lips trembled, and after a long time, after raising his head, he suddenly laughed wildly: "Good boy! ”
"General Shi!" After Duan Peng put the military report away, he turned his head, laughed and said to the adjutant general beside him who was also excitedly clenching his fists and admiring: "Pass the order, let the Huotou Army add a few good dishes and comfort the sergeant." Tomorrow, the army will set off early in the morning, and in the next ten days, the army will enter the stage of high-intensity operations! Whoever drops the chain for Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will not let him go! We old guys, we can't let the juniors see the joke! ”
"Yes!" The humble general laughed and took the order.
After the deputy general went out, Duan Peng smashed his mouth and took out the military newspaper, looked at it again, shook his head and praised himself for his wisdom and talent.
While proud, I kept doing it. It's just that Duan Peng seems to have gotten carried away, and he actually forgot that the chair only had three legs.
This one sat down, and the overwhelmed chair snapped and broke on the spot. Duan Peng, who was caught off guard, screamed miserably, fell directly backwards, and fell to the sky on all fours.
"Oh, I say!"
…… Hilly terrain, wilderness.
The sergeants who had just fought an encounter were resting under this hill.
In the distance, under the twilight, the enemy flags planted obliquely on the ground, as well as the corpses scattered all over the place, and the pervasive fireworks, in this bloody twilight, looked extraordinarily empty.
"What about our casualties?" After a high-intensity battle, Wang Gongye was also tired enough. Covered in blood, he sat on a large rock and asked the adjutant beside him out of breath.
"Five hundred killed, more than six hundred wounded!" A look of regret flashed across the adjutant's face, and he said in a somewhat low voice.
Hearing this, Wang Gongye couldn't help but be silent. After lowering his head and sighing, he raised his head, looked at the deputy general with a sad face, and said, "What about the other party?" ”
"A cavalry brigade of 4,000 will be wiped out!" Speaking of the other party's casualties, the adjutant general's face was a little better.
"We attacked suddenly, and the other party didn't have time to react, and we were caught off guard!" Wang Gongye lay on the grass and said lightly: "If it is a head-on confrontation, our chances of winning are not great!" ”
With a touch of vicissitudes on his immature face, after Wang Gongye sighed, a smile finally appeared on his face: "After these battles, there is not much left of the cavalry troops in Taibai County, and the rest will be handed over to General Duan!" We continue to push forward, and in ten days, General Ben will take you to see the sea! ”
"Hey, hey!" The lieutenant shook his head and smiled, looking forward to it.
Wang Gongye sat up and glanced in all directions. Under the twilight sky, the war horses walked leisurely in the meadow, eating grass. The soldiers, on the other hand, gathered in groups of three or five to talk about the world. There was no sadness or sorrow in the whole team.
"General, are we going to move on?" The adjutant licked his lips and lifted his armor with both hands, as if he was a little overwhelmed.
Wang Gongye looked at the soldiers sitting together chatting on the undulating field. After thinking about it, he lay down and said sleepily: "Don't go, tell the Huotou Army, let them make a fire to cook, and add more meat!" The soldiers are so tired! Today we are camping here to rest! ”
"Make a fire and cook?" Hearing this, the adjutant general was taken aback. During this march, it is taboo to make a fire and cook, and it is very easy to expose your whereabouts, how could the general suddenly give this order.
As if knowing the lieutenant's thoughts, Wang Gongye smiled, waved his hand arrogantly and said, "Don't worry, they don't dare to come." Hehe, it would be better if it came! ”
"Yes!" Although the lieutenant general was suspicious, he did not hesitate. He took the order and left.
Along the way, the young general led them to create countless miracles. It is often the idea of making a decision on the fly, but it brings great results later.
Therefore, at this time, seeing that the general looked like he was in his chest, the adjutant general no longer guessed, smiled hehe, and walked down.
It's finally time to rest!
In a short time, a bonfire was lit in the camp, and the dancing flames were like stars in the dark night. The lonely night breeze blew, bringing with it the blood of the distant battlefield and the sound of the soldiers laughing.
There are also people who sing, and the singing is intermittent, which makes people feel calm.
After a while, the mouth-watering smell of meat wafted in.
Smelling the aroma in the air, the soldiers could not help but swallow their saliva.
"Hey, smell this, it seems to be a lot of weight today!" Beside the fire, a soldier sniffled and excitedly said to his companion.
"Well, and it tastes like beef!" The soldier next to him was even more excited. It seems that in the Great Zhou, killing cattle is a crime, and it is punishable to be caught and imprisoned. I didn't expect to be able to eat beef when I came to this Goryeo.
"You kid is a dog!" Behind him, a clear voice came. With a sense of banter and banter.
Hearing this, the soldiers gathered around the bonfire turned their heads one after another, and when they saw the comer, they immediately stood up and saluted: "General! ”
After Wang Gongye came over, he found a place to sit down, waved his hand, and motioned for everyone to sit down.
A group of people gathered around the campfire, talking as they roasted the fire. It's just that the young general is sitting next to him, and the soldiers are inevitably a little restrained.
"Do you know how my king's meritorious deeds became soldiers?" Wang Gongye threw a piece of firewood into the fire, clapped his hands, looked around at the soldiers beside him, and asked with a smile.
At night, the soldiers gathered around the campfire, their bronzed faces, full of determination. Hearing the general talk about his journey in the army, the soldiers became curious.
They also inquired in private, it seemed that General Wang had been arrested and brought in, but, although there was a guess in their hearts, no one dared to say nonsense.
After all, being captured is not a glorious thing, not only for individuals, but also for the Great Zhou army.
"Actually, you're right!" Wang Gongye smiled and generously admitted: "This general was arrested and brought in!" ”
"That year, Ben Shao also took a few family members to tease the little daughter-in-law in Jiangning, but he didn't expect a group of big men to come up. They said that Ben Shao deserved death for molesting a woman from a good family in broad daylight. But when I think of being young, I don't know, so I'll give Ben a chance! ”
Wang Gongye laughed, holding a wooden stick in one hand, picking up the fire, and scolded with a smile: "Ben Shao thought they would let me go." Unexpectedly, these guys took me directly into the barracks! ”
"Then, Ben Shao became a small soldier of the Jiangsu Coastal Defense Army! became Boss Duan's subordinate! Wang Gongye glanced at the surprised eyes around him, shrugged his shoulders and said.
"I don't mean anything else by telling you this!" Wang Gongye saw that the Huotou Army had begun to meat the soldiers in various sections, and after standing up, he said to these soldiers with a smile: "I just tell you that if you follow the right person, you will have a future." After the completion of this battle in Goryeo, the general will report to his superiors that all those who are brave in this battle, regardless of their status, will be promoted to the next rank. Soldiers are promoted to officers, and officers are promoted to officers! Well, the meat is up, soldiers, enjoy! Ha ha! ”
Wang Gongye laughed and left, and behind him, after a short silence, a burst of cheers suddenly broke out: "The general is mighty!" ”
…… The next day, early in the morning.
The scout was covered in mist and galloped from afar.
"General, three hundred miles ahead, there are three traces of enemy troops, about three thousand people! They were in the shape of a zigzag, in three directions, and they were outflanking us! ”
