Chapter 80: The White Turban Army is coming

Since Gangshan has been lost, the task originally scheduled to assemble at Gangshan has been automatically canceled, so where to go? Donghai County has not yet sent an order, but now it is not far from Gangshan, but it is only thirty miles away, and the rapid march is only a day's journey, whether to advance or retreat, this is a very important and serious problem. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The sergeant rested on the spot and stood by, and Lao Bushen called Mars and other battalion leaders to the hill to discuss the problem, and I accompanied the side.

"How's that good?" Looking at the wilderness, the slightly old labor and sinking road.

When Lao Buzhen heard that Gangshan was lost, he was so frightened that he couldn't do it, and he eagerly suggested: "Big brother can't march anymore, if we are discovered by the White Turban Army, we will be finished." ”

"You bastard, we are a thousand sergeants, what the hell is it, I'm afraid before we fight, useless things." Lao Bu scolded scoldingly, not caring about the face of his own brother.

Lao Buzhen was still not convinced, and muttered: "The civilian slaves who were recruited like this have only been trained for a few days, can they fight, and the two thousand sergeants in front are examples." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about there, how much better can you be than them, I don't know how you became a deputy battalion leader, I really shouldn't promote you to be a deputy battalion leader." Lao Bushen was angry at Lao Buzhen.

I persuaded: "Leader of the labor camp, the disparity between the forces of the enemy and us is indeed not good for us. ”

Lao Bushen restrained his anger, glanced at me, and asked Mars again: "Mars camp leader, what do you say to do now?" ”

"Let's camp in place, send out the sentry to check the situation, and wait for the order of Donghai County." Mars said, looking at the undulating weeds, uncertain, like this situation, unable to fathom.

"The order of the eldest prince is to ask us to assemble in Gangshan, and now that Gangshan has fallen, we should take it back." Lao Bu pondered.

"While the White Turban Army has not yet gained a firm foothold, it is our opportunity, why don't we sneak attack and succeed?" I suggested.

"We only have a thousand sergeants, or an untrained new army, how can we storm the city?" Mars asked rhetorically.

"Combining the reinforcements of Wolf Mountain County and the army of the eldest prince, the odds are there, and we can't lose again, and if we lose again, no one will dare to join the new army." I have realized the importance of morale to an army, and the news of the fall of Gangshan has not yet been announced in the army, and cannot be announced.

"This matter has to be considered in the long run, and let's see what the situation is on the other side of Gangshan." Mars said, he glanced at me, meaning to tell me not to be strong, it was not time to do it yet.

Lao Bu scolded: "What are you doing here, go and arrange manpower to reconnoiter the situation on the front line and Gangshan, now intelligence is the top priority for us, you have to handle this matter." ”

"Yes, big brother." Lao Buzhen agreed toughly, turned around and left.

I also immediately followed Lao Buzhen, and shouted in the back: "Lao Yingling, your eldest brother is really strict with you, you do a good job, he is still picky." ”

Although Lao Buzhen has only dealt with me for a few days, I have already figured out his temperament, so he has no taboo to speak to me, and he is not clear about the treatment of the Huoyue people, so he has nothing to hide when he speaks, he said: "My brother is so virtuous, he is afraid that others will gossip and use nepotism, so he is particularly strict with me, and he must make achievements so that people have nothing to say." ”

I didn't expect Lao Buzhen to say these powerful relationships, but I didn't know what to say for a while, Lao Buzhen didn't care, and said: "When I joined the Donghai County Garrison, I was still a small sergeant, and it didn't take long for me to be promoted to captain, all of which were handled by my brother, and after two years as a captain, my brother promoted me to be the deputy general flag, and he ran around the relationship, and I had my brother's care all the way, otherwise, I wouldn't have been the deputy battalion leader so soon, and my brother should be strict with me." ”

Although Lao Buzhen's ability to do things is not very good, but the relationship between his brothers is very important, and he respects his brother very much, otherwise, if it were other people, he is afraid that he will already hold a grudge, and on weekdays, he is a prestige and blessing for those recruits and recruits, and he is a little disrespectful, all of them are scolded, and he can't wait to be beaten, which will be scolded by his brother but he will be safe and easy.

When the tent had not yet been set up, and the stakes of the defensive horse fence had just been laid, the scouts who had gone out to investigate galloped back. The detective rode his horse but did not dare to slow down, ran into the camp, and galloped off his horse, not caring to tie the horse, and came straight to Lao Buzhen.

Kneeling on one knee, he reported: "Report to the battalion leader, less than five miles away from the camp, there is an army. ”

Lao Buzhen asked in shock: "What army?" ”

The detective said, "They all wear white scarves on their headdresses, and they are under the banner of Pulsatilla spreading their wings, so there is no doubt that they are the White Turban Army." ”

I was still with Lao Buzhen, following him inch by inch, and I asked before Lao Buzhen: "What about the fire mountain?" "Huo Dashan was recommended by me to be a scout, riding my horse, this road is similar to the place where I once went to Hailing County to buy grain, and the route is clear.

"Brother Huo asked me to come back to report the news, and he is still scouting all the way." The sergeant is also a very flexible sergeant, and he paid special attention to it during training, called Lao Zhuhong, and his skills are not bad, but he lacks training.

"How many men do they have?" If Lao Bu really didn't ask the key point, it really wouldn't work.

"About two thousand, only the leader rode a horse, and the rest were on foot." Lao Zhuhong said hurriedly, his breath had not yet adjusted.

"Where exactly have they been, there is a valley on the road ahead, have they already passed?" I remember passing through a valley a short distance ahead, and if I hadn't crossed the valley yet, it would have been a good ambush.

"Not yet, but still three miles away." Lao replied puzzledly, seeing that I seemed to know the distance, he was suspicious.

"Good, good, God help me." I woke up and shouted, "The labor camp leader will gather the sergeants, and we will ambush the White Turban Army." ”

It seems that because of the quick response of the scouts, Lao Bushen and Mars also arrived, just when they heard that I was going to ambush the White Turban Army, and the two battalion leaders looked at my surprised faces strangely.

I said proudly, "Let the camp leader order the assembly of the sergeants, there are two thousand white turban troops in front of me, and if I am not bad, they must pass through a valley, and at that valley they will be ambushed, leaving two hundred sergeants to pack up the camp and retreat back to the village." ”

As soon as I told the situation, Lao Bushen and Mars were both happy, and without hesitation, they ordered the troops to be dispatched, and they marched forward quickly, and the sign sergeants were all lightly armed, carrying only one weapon with them. Since we had calculated or not, when we arrived at that steep valley, everything was still under control.

The mountains of Donghai County were not very steep and undulating, but here they are different, the mountains are undulating, the cliffs are more than 70 meters high, and they are not lower than the cliffs in the mountainous area, and this mountain range just separates Hailing County from Nanwang County.

Standing on the top of the cliff, looking down at the narrow part of the valley, less than 20 meters, and the length of this narrow place is more than 50 meters deep, as long as the ambush soldiers are ambushed on this cliff, and the boulders and rolling logs are thrown down from the top, the lethality of the White Turban Army is destroyed.

It's a pity that the time is in a hurry, and we can't get a lot of rolling logs, so we can only move the boulders on the cliff to the hidden place on the cliff nearby, originally according to the terrain, it is very beneficial for us, the ambush soldiers are buried on the cliff, and a team of people are left in the valley to cover the impact, but considering the long-distance speed run for two miles, and quickly climb up the cliff, the physical loss is huge, if you rush to kill again, maybe you will fall into a bitter battle, it is not advisable, so I gave up that tactic, only ambush counted, and I can kill as much as I can.
