Chapter 42: A Call for Help
The killing intent is rising, and the fight is moving. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The vast desert is full of people, weapons collide, and horses' hooves trample on it.
There were shouts of killing everywhere, and the fierce battle between the Yuan army and the Xiongnu continued.
50,000 troops came to fight, and the Xiongnu also had 70,000 soldiers and horses, and the two sides added up to more than 100,000, and the banners waving in the wind rolled like waves.
At the head of the city, a heroic general stood tall, covered in steel armor, his face did not change even though the arrows rained down, and the banner behind him had the word "Chen" written on it, which was the troops led by Chen Guang.
"My lord, the main force of the Huns went and returned, our army suffered heavy casualties, and the second prince Ben Lei sent someone to ask for support."
The person who came was not wearing armor, but his identity was a strategist, he was half-kneeling on the ground, and his hurried tone was full of anxiety and urgency of the war situation, but Chen Guang was still unmoved, not saying a word.
"Your Excellency?"
The unknown strategist was urging again, the second prince who pursued his family head a few days ago suffered heavy casualties, and now the defense line of the town is even more precarious, so no matter how much he looked down on the "big man" in front of him in the past, he still chose to bow his head in the face of life and death.
Chen Guang still didn't move, like a stone statue, and even the occasional stray arrow flew past his helmet and made a clanging sound, but he still couldn't move.
"Master Pony, please save my master! For the sake of being loyal to the Yuan Kingdom! ”
The strategist burst into tears, and he no longer had the majesty and arrogance of the past.
"Eh, the horse master is resting in the back......"
"Huh?"
The "Chen Guang" in front of him finally spoke up, but he was obviously not the real Chen Guang, but was pretended to be by the guards.
The current atmosphere is more embarrassing, the secret of his boss's laziness has been exposed by outsiders, and the soldiers of the Yuan army are still working desperately, and Chen Guang, who is the main general, is not the first soldier, but hides in the rear to be lazy.
This kind of absenteeism before the battle, if it was in the past, would have been sued by Motuo a long time ago, not to mention quarreling and exterminating the clan, the dismissal and investigation are certain. But it is obviously not suitable to use it on the current Chen Guang, in the past few days, Photon No. 1 has been powerful, and he has won successive battles, Chen Guang's limelight is unmatched for a while, who dares to touch his bad head in this momentum?
No one dared, even if it was the eldest prince Ben Lei and the second prince Tu Lei, they didn't dare!
The Yuan Kingdom was originally a grassland people, and they worshiped power more than rules, and it was obvious that the current Chen Guang had power far beyond them, so they could only choose to bow their heads.
"Where's the horse?"
That's right, where is the horse master now, and what are you doing?
……
In the old city, the mottled stone roads are covered with moss.
In front of you is an ancient city full of history and slaughter, which is the best for a day trip.
Chen Guang took more than a dozen personal guards, rode horses, and wandered around, without any sense of urgency to be in the face of a big war, let alone the consciousness of the ministers who had died for the Yuan Kingdom.
In his words: Lao Tzu is only here to fight soy sauce, not to fight the Huns to the death.
"My lord, the big war is in full swing, is it okay for us to walk around like this?"
Several guards guarded Chen Guang in the crowd, and the spots on their faces did not feel relaxed to come out to play, but they were more nervous than when they were in the barracks.
Chen Guang didn't hear this, but said with a smile: "Such a beautiful day, it's really bad to talk about fighting and killing, don't make noise, let me pretend to be forced quietly for a while." ”
"Huh? What do you say, sir? ”
Chen Guang: "Oh, I mean, let me think about the battle situation quietly. ”
"Adults are very aware of righteousness, and they don't forget to consider national affairs when they play, which is really a model for us!"
This sycophant is very direct, Chen Guang is very refreshing, and laughs loudly: "Hahahaha!" I just like you to be such an honest person, I'll give you a raise when I go back! ”
The guards who had just slapped their sycophants were overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed: "Thank you, sir!" ”
When Chen Guang returned to the camp at the city gate, it was already evening, the night was low, the cool breeze was howling, and the offensive of the Huns was also slowing down.
The soldiers of the Yuan Army, who had just finished the battle, hurriedly seized the rare opportunity to rest and recuperate, and many people were talking about the battle situation.
"Hey, what did you say the Huns were attacking like crazy?"
"Who knows, but our horse master is the god of thunder, and he can use thunder and lightning to drive thunder and lightning, and no matter how many Huns there are, sooner or later they will die out."
"Hey, did you say that Master Pony can manipulate thunder and lightning?"
"Needless to say, I saw with my own eyes that the Huns in the city were menacing that day, and everyone was afraid. Only the horse master is not afraid, wearing a robe, holding a peachwood sword, trying to open the altar, an order, ten thousand thunderbolts fell from the sky, and the Huns were bombarded, the scene was spectacular! ”
Burst!
Chen Guang almost wanted to rush in and grab the nonsense and spray him with a mouthful of salt soda: Are you talking about a person, is that a god stick!
At first, I listened to it with relish, this kind of thing of hiding and listening to others admiring me is really dark enough, but the more I listen to it, the more wrong it is, Photon No. 1 is obviously a bomb, but it is understood by the unaware low-level soldiers as a fairy thunder method.
This is really depressing, but in this era, information circulation relies on letters and mouths, but the most unreliable is the human mouth, in the process of dissemination, all kinds of oil and vinegar, in the end it is often thousands of miles away from the truth, which makes people's eggs hurt.
Sure enough, illiteracy is terrible, and mental retardation is contagious.
Chen Guang felt that he should stay away from these mentally retarded people in front of him, and don't even believe that he is a god in the end.
"Your Excellency, today a strategist under the command of the Second Prince has come to visit us, wanting to borrow Photon No. 1 and a noose trebuchet from us."
Several cronies stepped forward to report on today's battle situation, and by the way, they also said that the second prince had sent someone to ask for help.
", these birdmen have been uncomfortable since they started until now, and they don't feel well without asking for help three times a day."
As soon as he heard that someone was looking for him, Chen Guang was speechless, the eldest prince and the second prince did not mention it first, and several nobles in the Yuan Kingdom who went out with Emperor Motuo on the expedition frequently asked to see him.
The purpose is nothing else, it is to ask for Photon 1 and a noose trebuchet.
Now even a pig knows that this is a good thing, and what can help them win a battle is not a good thing?
"If you don't borrow or save, let them die, what's the matter?"
Chen Guang thought very depressedly: On weekdays, if you don't drag them in front of Lao Tzu, you can't laugh at them now by pretending to be a grandson? Fuck the shit!
Moreover, the Huns were repeatedly frustrated this time and still repeatedly sought war, which gave Chen Guang a bad premonition.
What's wrong with these guys? Or did they have some ulterior conspiracy? (To be continued.) )
