Chapter 571: Broken Knife (I)

Liu Peixuan arrived outside Huayin County in a nervous mood. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 On the way, she heard about one thing, a handsome wife brought thousands of people to Tongguan to help, but she was ambushed and almost died. Because of this, she became scared, for fear that she would also be ambushed and be put on a meat ticket.

On the contrary, Miss Zhou, although she was pregnant, was decisive, clear-minded, well-organized, and extremely safe in her choice of marching routes. Therefore, there was no danger along the way, and the journey was very smooth.

The team was still more than 20 miles away from Huayin, and they met the rangers of the Lu army, and after checking each other's identities, several rangers accompanied Liu Peixuan to the military camp. From the wind, the sound of gunfire and war drums wafted, and Miss Zhou's face changed, and she seemed to be a little scared. The ranger laughed, "Don't worry, the trapped beast is still fighting, and it can't be defeated, so it won't startle you." ”

Miss Zhou took advantage of the conversation and asked, "Is this a siege?" ”

"No, it was Guo Jun who came out to fight, or called death." The ranger smiled proudly: "There is a man surnamed Geng who died over there, and when I heard about this, Guo Jian's eyes turned red, and he vowed to avenge him." In the past few days, I have organized troops to go out of the city every day to counter the assault, but unfortunately it is useless. The marshal had already prepared for a long time, and cannons were placed in each of them to fight his troops out of the city. As soon as the centaur came out of the city, he first blew him up a few rounds with shrapnel shells, and when he rushed out, he was a platoon of guns, and what kind of hero he was, he would die in the end. Look at how many soldiers there are in his city, and this method of killing is forbidden. ”

"Oh, I see." Miss Zhou nodded thoughtfully, "Guo Jian himself, did you catch it?" ”

"If we catch him, we won't have to freeze outside the city. This turtle grandson is very slippery, and he has led the troops to kill it a few times, but he can't catch it. But it doesn't matter, his people are dying too much, and he won't last long. In a few days, Huayin will be taken down, and then a few people will go to the city to warm up. ”

Miss Zhou gestured to Liu Peixuan with her eyes, and the latter immediately understood and asked, "What about the handsome man?" Now in the camp? ”

"No. The marshal went out with his soldiers. I heard that these thieves are going to organize some kind of three-way joint army to besiege us, and they will find their own death! We already knew their marching plan, the commander led the soldiers out to kill, and this time, the other two teams were resolved. Wait until Huayin becomes a lone soldier, see where he Guo Jian can escape! The handsome man has spoken, dare to hit our wife's car, and kill him, anyone can live, he must be killed! ”

As soon as the words fell, Miss Zhou's face suddenly turned white, and the person fell to the side. The ranger's eyes were quick, and he grabbed the person, but when he saw her eyes roll up, she fell unconscious again.

Between the mountains and forests, noisy footsteps sounded, banners stretched in the cold wind, and under the clear sky, weapons such as knives, machetes, and ghost knives reflected dazzling light. The minions hummed a minor tune like "Ghost head big knife and six-wheeled gun, I will be the ......emperor in Guanzhong". Although it was a march, the troops walked very loosely and did not become a formation.

Guanzhong swordsmen have been like this, and they have made a promise of life and death, but they also have no discipline. Gao Jun and Cao Shiying are not considered to be generals and strategists, so naturally they have no ability, and they led a group of stragglers into a forbidden team.

Fortunately, everyone was originally born in a bad war, and for so many years, it has been like this. Although these people are undisciplined, they are not afraid of death, and when the time comes, they will pounce directly, but the regular army itself is not suitable for the fighting style of the swordsman.

Gao Cao and the two walked side by side, talking quietly as they walked. The horse team in the army has been sent out to plunder Shangnan, and this group of men and horses is going to Huayin to concentrate their forces and create a way for Guo Jian.

Everyone knows in their hearts, judging from the combat power shown by the Lu army when they entered Shaanxi, although they have many soldiers, it is unlikely that they will eat him. However, if you can't eat it, you can give him a pain, and that's enough.

Cao Shiying was born in Xiucai, although he has never been an official, he is no stranger to Dajin officialdom, and he is also familiar with the generals born in the former Jin military system. Xiang Jun on the side analyzed the situation:

"The foundation of the Lu army is in Shandong, not in Shaanxi. This is not his territory, it is useless to fight down, and it is impossible to stay in Shaanxi as an overseer. It is equivalent to doing something for others, and no matter how good you do, you have to go. On the other hand, the soldiers lost are their own capital, and without soldiers, there is no foundation. Not only did Shaanxi fight in vain, but even his position could not be kept. Lao Yuan trained model divisions, and asked each province to set up civil governors, which was actually the authority of the provinces to supervise the army. Therefore, when we started an incident, most of the provincial overseers were happy to see it happen. Zhao Guanhou fought fiercely because his relationship with Lao Yuan was extraordinary. But he is him, and his subordinates are his subordinates, and if he spells out the old book, his subordinates will not agree. ”

Gao Jun and Cao Shiying have the best personal relationship, and they are also very compatible in terms of knowledge, nodding and saying: "Guo Jian's burning of Chang'an is really a stinky move." The Yunnan and Guizhou armies, which were originally prepared to support us, refused to send troops because of this matter. Sichuan, too, was afraid that we would kill people and set fire to it after we entered Sichuan, and it turned from welcome to hostility. Soldiers were waiting at the border, and we were not allowed to enter Sichuan. Such a troublemaker, we still have to save him and give him the aftermath. The consumption of the Lu army actually consumes our own people, so many brothers, when the time comes, we will have to take human lives to fill the artillery of the Lu army. ”

"Not so much. Our surprise soldiers raided Shangnan, as long as it was defeated, there would be a good fortune. Shangnan is the place where the Lu army stores supplies, and there must be a large number of baggage. If you fight it, everyone will be able to make a fortune, and the people below will not object. As for fighting the Lu army head-on, I think with Zhao Guanhou's intelligence ability, I can definitely know that we are serious this time. He doesn't support a war of attrition, and neither do his men. As long as we put the shelf away, he himself will know how to make trade-offs, as long as the stance is sufficient, he himself may withdraw. In any case, the five-way coalition army, the point is a couplet. If everyone doesn't save each other, it won't be a joke and people will look down on it. Wait until he gets out, and then figure out a way. The days are long, the supply is difficult, and the Lu army is in Shaanxi and will not stay for too long. ”

Cao Shiying said while comparing paintings: "Most of the materials that come to aid from the province have to go to Henan. There will be everywhere, even if Wang Tianzong brought it into part of Shaanxi, in the mainland, there are. Those people are not afraid of heaven and earth, they are all masters who do not want to die. Seeing that there were military quartermasters on the railway, they would not be blushing. As long as they hit the railway and cut off the supply of the Lu army, the Lu army will not be able to retreat if they want to. In short, no matter how this account is calculated, the Lu army is also losing money, no one is willing to do this business, and the story is false to fight two battles, and then he will leave. As long as they go, the situation in Shaanxi will be considered alive. ”

Both of them have no illusions about defeating the Lu army, but they are quite confident in scaring the Lu army away. At this time, the signal corps at the outpost came with news that Yang Jiuwa, who was in charge of the vanguard mission, had made contact with the troops of the Lu army, and there were casualties on both sides, but there were many civilian soldiers, and the Lu army had begun to retreat.

Gao Jun's face was overjoyed, "It's a good fight!" It seems that the Lu army's will to fight is really not strong, and ordered the forwards to speed up the march, and fight to Huayin as soon as possible, so as to solve the battle earlier. ”

Yang Jiuwa's forward force of more than 2,000 people is the elite of the entire coalition army, and Yang Jiuwa herself is a famous fierce general among the swordsmen. When Cao Shiying's mount arrived at the front line, he saw that on the battlefield, there were more than 30 corpses of the Beiyang Army, and more than 20 long and short firearms were captured. This is not very good in terms of performance, but the confidence in the coalition army has been improved, at least to tell everyone that the Lu army is also flesh and blood, and it is not invincible.

The originally loose swordsmen, when they arrived at this time, became like wolves, and they were extremely excited because they saw blood. The pace was quietly picking up, pouring the last soju on his body into his mouth, relying on the wine to offset the biting cold wind, and advancing towards Huayin.

Soon, the gunfire at the outpost rang out again, and it didn't last long, and the striker came again. The Lu army also had very few troops stationed here, and as soon as they made contact, they began to retreat, and they all withdrew after only two rows of guns. However, Yang Jiuwa instead ordered the forward troops to slow down their advance, search and advance, and beware of the enemy's ambush.

Cao Shiying said with a smile: "Jiuwa is too cautious in using soldiers. Even if the Lu army lures the enemy, where can it lure us to? We are always going to Huayin, the mountains and rivers in this area are all in our hearts, and they are far worse than the location and his baby. Tell him, speed up, get through Huayin County, and let Guo Jian's mother-in-law sing a big show for us! ”

For Yang Guanyin! Such a slogan makes the team's spirit more full and faster. Before you know it, the distance between the troops is widening, some of the soldiers are falling behind, and the other part of the troops is rushing further and further.

Yang Jiuwa's vanguard, after two attacks, the losses were not large, and the soldiers began to despise the combat effectiveness of the Lu army, thinking that it was not difficult to deal with the troops behind its palace. Only Yang Jiuwa's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and she ordered her subordinates, slow down, slow down, pay attention to the ambush!

These centaurs are very familiar with the nearby terrain, and the choice is naturally not the kind of narrow and difficult dangerous narrow road, so their subordinates don't care much about ambushes. In other words, there isn't much terrain on this road that can be ambushed. As Cao Shiying's order came, the spirit of the forward army became more and more excited, and some people shouted Yang Guanyin's name and began to rush forward, and the formation of the team became more and more scattered.

No, there must be something wrong.

Yang Jiuwa absolutely did not believe that a general who could annihilate the Gan Army's horse team would make such a low-level mistake. If Lu Jun is really so pustuple, then why did Guo Jian send a letter asking for help? He ordered the guards around him, "Tell those Guava to walk slowly for me and keep the formation ......"

Before the words fell, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the front, Yang Jiuwa subconsciously reined in the mount, raised her gun and shouted, "Don't panic, be alert!" ”

Immediately, one after another, explosions came from the front, and the explosion was earth-shattering. When Yang Jiuwa's mount arrived at the front, it was realized that the troops had encountered a large number of mines planted by the Lu army. Compared with the mines, the arrangement behind the mine group is even more chilling for the people's army.

Large breastworks, fences, and horses are already on display, announcing that the defenders have been waiting for a long time. The Zhao Zi military flag fluttered, and the Beiyang soldiers in winter clothes were waiting with their rifles held high. Dozens of cannons lined up, and in the most prominent position in front of the formation, they began to fire shells at the people's army.

Main?

Yang Jiuwa took a cursory look and found that the enemy's strength was not small, and the equipment was extremely well-equipped. The fact that such a main force is waiting here shows that the other side has already mastered the advance route of its own troops. Every move of their own side is within the calculation of the Lu army.

He was cautious, but at this time, he was the most daring. He drew his ghost-headed knife, slashed at the void, and shouted, "Brothers, don't be afraid of anything! When the brave wins, rush over to me and kill them! ”

"Kill them!"

Led by the commander-in-chief, the morale of the troops boiled again, and the people's army began to roll forward with boulders to clear mines, and even rushed forward in the form of human trips. The lucky one rushed through the minefield circle, and then had to face the platoon of guns, but no one flinched, and all the soldiers just watched as the people around them were blown up or killed by random shots. He raised his sword expressionlessly and threw himself towards the position of the Lu army.

The artillery of the Lu army began to exert its might, and dozens of iron balls swept through the crowd, bringing up countless flesh and blood. The artillery commander looked at the opposite side unhurriedly, and those heroes in Guanzhong who were shouting to kill him, said coldly: "Shotgun, double shotgun!" Pull your horse and get ready, and after two rounds of shotgunning, shift your position! ”

The civilian army lacked artillery, and a certain impact distance could only be filled by human life and flesh and blood. The artillery fire of the Lu army, but after completing the killing mission, calmly set the car and left. When the people's army just arrived at this position, they were greeted by the baptism of the Beiyang soldiers.

In the shouting, none of the commandos in the first row survived, and the attackers in the second and third rows did not hesitate in the slightest because of the suffering of their comrades. Those who were selected into the vanguard team were all the people with the strongest individual combat skills and the greatest courage in the whole army. As long as you don't die, you can enjoy the spoils of war first when you enter the city, and the impact of the troops is extremely strong, almost hard against the bullets, and comes to the vicinity of the position of the Lu army.

But before they could give full play to their swordsman expertise and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Lu army, the Lu soldiers had already taken the lead, and countless round objects drew parabolas in the air and landed at the feet of the people's army. Just when most of the militia couldn't figure out what they were throwing, the explosion was already sounding.

Cao Shiying heard the news of the frustration of the attack in the formation, and when Pegasus arrived at the front line, the vanguard had already lost more than half of its casualties, but it still failed to touch the side of the Lu army. Yang Jiuwa herself also hung up the color, but she still ran on the front line, dispatching and commanding. Looking at the complete fortifications of the Lu army, Cao Shiying also knew in his heart that his plan must have leaked the news, and there were undercover agents from the government around him!

He was more worried about the safety of his hometown than about the frustration of his attack. Baishui County, whose ancient name is Feng Yi, was named after Feng Yi at the beginning of the Shaanxi Righteous Army, because Baishui is the starting place of these Guanzhong swordsmen. Puxian is an important source of income, once the two cities are lost, it is not easy for them to go back to their homes.

He hurriedly ordered a large force in the rear to come to support Jiuwa, but the disjointed team that fell behind at the end began to hesitate after the cannon sounded. Some of the junior officers exchanged words and deliberately delayed the movement of the troops. Soon, another rumor spread among the troops that Puxian and Baishui were being besieged by officers and soldiers, and if they didn't go back, their hometown would be lost. (To be continued.) )
