"Brethren! We are hot-blooded men, for the sake of thousands of fathers and villagers, for the lives of parents and brothers, wives will not be humiliated, and there will be hope for the children to be saved! The time has come for us to build the Great Wall with our flesh and blood and defend our loved ones! Brothers, those who dare to fight for life and death can stay, and those who are greedy for life and afraid of death can leave! Li Yi shouted loudly, and the voice echoed in the forest for a long time.

"There are no cowards in the sharp knife curve, we are ready to stain the battlefield with blood at any time!" Li Heng raised the steel spear above his head, and he raised his arms and shouted.

"I would like blood to stain the battlefield! Protect a city and a city with your life! Five hundred warriors shouted in unison, and their voices resounded through the sky.

Seeing that the morale had been inspired, Li Yi waved his hand and said: "The brothers are all good, worthy of being my children of the peace, and there is no cringe in the past, which makes me, the eldest brother, feel very relieved, and I am proud to have warriors like you!" Brothers, in units, teams, squads, and armies, each look for favorable terrain to hide, but you must remember that in wartime, you must assemble quickly, and only by forming a fist can you strike at the enemy fiercely. If they fight on their own, they can only hasten their demise! ”

Concentrating forces to attack in a military formation was the most effective tactic in the cold weapons period, and in particular, assault warfare, especially a battle to tackle a fortified position with fewer battles and more battles, must be tightly embraced. This truth has been repeatedly emphasized by Zhang Ying and others to the soldiers in their weekday training.

The Xianbei army was unable to attack for a long time, giving the Taiping people enough respite, and in the rest of the month, systematic training was carried out, and the combat ability of individual soldiers has been greatly improved, and the ability to coordinate action has also made great progress. While training soldiers, more attention is paid to the cultivation of officers' command ability.

Officers at all levels should lead their subordinates well and be responsible to their superiors, and the implementation of this system of responsibility at all levels will make the entire contingent like an iron plate, indestructible in defense and indestructible in attack.

It's just that the training days of Taiping soldiers are short, and they are far from reaching the highest level of this shocking and terrifying. However, there are no major accidents, the advance can be attacked and retreated, the soldiers will be coordinated, and the pace adjustment will be uniform, these most basic tactical qualities have been engraved in the hearts of every soldier in the sharp knife song.

The forest is not large, and 500 soldiers are distributed among them, which seems to be very crowded. Li Yi held a torch and circled the soldiers, but his mood was slowly sinking. How sudden can this raid be done? Can it pose a threat to tens of thousands of Xianbei troops?

The soldiers were all looking at Li Yi, seeing that the main general's face was grim and cold, most of them couldn't calm down, but they tried their best to keep themselves calm.

"Click......" A crisp sound of horses' hooves, from faint and almost inaudible, gradually intensified to clear and intelligible. This hurried hoof print, piercing the silence of the night sky, seemed to knock on everyone's heart. The sound of hooves is very rhythmic, so that everyone's heartbeat involuntarily adjusts, echoing the rhythmic sound of horses' hooves, fluttering and beating violently.

There is only one horse, and it is from the direction of Taiping City, what is there to make a fuss about, this is too neurotic!

Looking at the soldier's tense face, Li Yi couldn't help but laugh, he shook his hand slightly, and then led the horse out of the woods and greeted the comer.

"Who?" Li Yi shouted: "This is an ambush area, if there is nothing important, please exit the place of right and wrong!" ”

"Ambush zone?" The person who came chuckled, she gradually got closer, she had already seen Li Yi's face clearly, and couldn't help but shout softly: "Ambush Su Li here, it is better to set up a barrier to intercept the enemy army!" ”

Li Yi also saw the face of the person who came, she was wearing a military uniform, but she couldn't hide her delicate face, this is not Zhang Ying who is dressed as a man, who else can be so pretty?

"I also know that this is not the best ambush spot, but I have no choice but to lead the soldiers to fight to the death with the enemy!" Li Yi's face was full of helplessness, and he said softly with a bitter face: "Why are you here?" ”

"It's not five hundred brothers in the heart! With the horses sent by my brother to travel, I kept going all the way back to Taiping. I didn't see my brother, nor did I see half of the figure of the sharp knife riding song, and I was wondering in my heart, but I met Song Zhi. Zhang Ying smiled slightly and said: "Song Sicong is so anxious that he is in a hurry, and it is obviously difficult to support it alone. When I asked him, I found out that my brother did not enter the city, but went around the city to the south, and as for where he was going, he couldn't tell one, two, three. However, with his brother's character, he can only block the enemy army in the south, and the possibility of lying in the poplar forest is the greatest, but the first few **** came to this poplar forest, and the bare one was almost unobstructed. By setting up an ambush here, not only can he not raid Suli, but it is very likely that he will be surrounded and annihilated in the forest. In order to save the lives of the five hundred brothers, I threw all the things in the city to Song Zhi and hurried to this place with a flying horse. ”

Li Yi didn't feel a cold sweat, he wiped his head and face with his sleeve, and said with an anxious look: "The enemy army is coming, what should I do?" ”

"Yes! From the first round of the battle, Su Li made careful arrangements, he is bound to win this battle, and he will go all out to sneak attack Taiping, and now the vanguard of the Hu people, I'm afraid it's not far away! Although Zhang Ying's face showed a little coldness, there was no trace of panic.

Li Yi really couldn't hold his breath, he grabbed Zhang Ying's arm and said, "Let's think of a remedy!" ”

Zhang Ying shook his arm slightly, broke free from Li Yi's hand, and said with a calm smile: "The enemy scouts have not arrived, what is there to worry about!" Seeing that Li Heng had already galloped over, he restrained his smile and said: "Pass my order, leave a hundred percent of soldiers, tie the horse's tail firmly to the branches, and run back and forth in the forest." The rest of the brothers quickly withdrew from the land of right and wrong. ”

This is a suspicious tactic! This will discourage the enemy from attacking easily. But this method can only prevent it for a moment and a half, and it can not kill or injure the enemy, and once it is recognized by the Xianbei people, it will be difficult to get out. Li Yi bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then he raised his head and said, "I will stay and live and die with my fifty brothers!" ”

"You are the lord of a city, how can you be in danger? Living and dying with my brothers, I Li Heng is duty-bound! Li Heng looked anxious and worried.

"I have made up my mind, Brother Heng, please don't say much, you lead the people to go!" The more crisis there is, the more unable to retreat, and this creed has taken deep root in Li Yi's heart.

"His stubborn temper came up, and the nine cows couldn't pull it back! Li Heng, quickly lead the soldiers and horses to withdraw from the woods! Zhang Ying nodded lightly at her husband, and only the two of them understood the implication.

Although Li Heng was unwilling, seeing that the two had made up their minds, he had no choice but to follow the order.

Looking at the departure of the nine teams of soldiers and horses, Li Yi looked at the fifty warriors in front of him, and his heart set off waves, and he said arrogantly: "The purpose of our stay is to drag the Xianbei people, the longer the delay, the more stable the defense of Taiping Village!" Brothers, hurry up and tie all the horse's tails to the branches! ”
