Section 42 Feast Hidden Killing Machine [I]

"Ah Yue, go get my halberd and bow and arrow!"

Lu Bu was quick-witted, and he could naturally feel the hidden meaning of Guan Yu's approach just now. Just in case, Lu Bu whispered to Wei Yue to prepare his weapons.

- Wait a minute, I'll probably need to use it!

Even if Lu Bu didn't know what to say, Wei Yue understood. He's just young, and he's not stupid.

At the same time, Dian Wei also told his followers:

"Go, get a flying halberd from a certain family."

Most of the people in the army are martial. The so-called "no first, no second", if there is an opportunity, a military general who is confident enough in himself will certainly not miss the possibility of challenging the strong enemy in his heart.

At this moment, hundreds of pairs of eyes were staring at Guan Yu, looking forward to his "one-hit kill" display. Even with Guan Yu's conceit, in the face of all the attention, it is inevitable that he will be a little nervous. The sharp-eyed soldier had already seen Guan Yu, and he was checking whether the silk on the horse's belly was perfectly tied for the third time.

At the time when everyone was gearing up and waiting for a wonderful dragon battle to be staged, Zhang Zhang, who was sitting in the main seat, had a faint jump in the corners of his eyes. Because, he clearly saw that there was a fast horse not far away, rushing into the temporary camp of rewarding the three armies, and drove many soldiers who were eating and drinking to the ground!

- Which of these guys' men dares to go on such a rampage?

According to military law, horses are not allowed to gallop at will in the camp. Sima Sui Tho, a famous master of the art of war in the Spring and Autumn Period, once drove a horse in the military camp because of Qi Jinggong's envoy, beheaded the coachman, cut off the standing wood on the left side of the car, and killed the horse on the far left, announcing to the three armies.

If it weren't for this envoy who directly obeyed Qi Jinggong's order, I am afraid that it would not only be his coachman who would die, but even the envoy himself.

Arrogant naturally can't reach the level of Sima Sui Tho, who wrote "Sima Law", that kind of rigorous level of commanding troops. However, in the past four or five years, no less than 20 of the subordinates have died in military justice. Zhang Qiang thought in his heart, if it weren't for the extremely important big event, this soldier on horseback would definitely die!

In this world, are there any people who are looking for their own death?

Yes, of course.

However, by no means that rider.

In particular, when the "cymbal" that represented the attack was violently struck, the behavior of the rider naturally had the most appropriate explanation!

In the arrogant brain, there was a sudden "buzzing" sound.

- Enemy attack?

――What do you mean?

I have to say that the dominance of the party in the past few years has changed a lot in the psychology of arrogance. If it is said that when he first crossed, there were still some personality and behavior characteristics of the original owner in his arrogant body. Then, the current arrogance has been completely mastered by the souls of later generations.

This is a good thing, so as not to accidentally fall into a state of schizophrenia. This is also a bad thing, which makes insolence reveal the true colors of half an otaku at a critical moment.

The bloody man of four years ago is gone, replaced by a rational person who has to carefully ponder the pros and cons for a long time in case of trouble. Incidentally, the confident swordsman who was suddenly attacked and immediately took the lead in organizing a counterattack became a surprise who couldn't react effectively for a while.

"My lord! Lord! ”

The call in his ears finally made Zhang Qi understand. Looking at the pair of panicked, excited, or calm eyes in front of him, Zhang Yan understood that he had to hold on.

Fortunately, a few years of killing and conquest have been enough to train an ordinary person into a qualified commander. The arrogance that came out of the battlefield, after a short period of soul flight, finally entered the state that he should have entered in time.

Therefore, what Zhang Qi is doing at the moment is to do nothing.

"Here, let's have a drink!"

When the servants and auxiliaries on the periphery of the barracks began to have a little chaos, Zhang was still in the mood to raise a glass and persuade him to drink?

However, such an unreliable behavior made the owners of countless pairs of eyes relax in their hearts.

Since the arrogance of the main commander is so calm, his subordinates can't be too embarrassed.

-- There should be nothing major happening. Even if there is, the little heavenly master can settle the ......

The crowd thought.

But is insolence really as easy as he seems? In fact, his calves, because of nervousness, actually had a rare cramp......

The generals are stabilized, and the next step is to let the generals stabilize the soldiers. However, before sending his generals, Zhang Arrogant decided to figure things out first. Otherwise, the generals who have no bottom in their hearts are likely to infect their subordinates with this kind of suspicion.

In the midst of the chaos, the rider rushed closer, allowing him to see his face clearly.

Over the course of several years, Zhang Mad had memorized the faces and names of at least 1,400 of his subordinates. After thinking about it for a while, the name of the rider who almost rushed in front of him was thought of by insolence.

"Qu Shuai!"

"Jia Li, what's the matter with you? So panicked? ”

Jia Li, a rider, jumped off the horse. Ignoring the fact that he had bent too hard to his feet, he fell to his knees and cried out loudly:

"Qu Shuai! Enemy attack! ”

The arrogant heart fell downward. The soldiers who call him "Qu Shuai" are all veterans who have followed him since Taishan County, and there will be no problem in terms of loyalty. If you have a problem with your loyalty, you won't be able to stay in the Tai Xing Army at all. That guy should have run away in that mutiny a few years ago.

This means that enemy attacks do exist!

"Xiao has a big mouth! Why didn't he come in return? ”

There is nothing more disappointing than receiving the news of an enemy attack at a celebration banquet. Although he intellectually believed Jia Li's words, he was emotionally trying to prove that this bad news was wrong.

"Xiao ...... Bai Chang, he ......"

Xiao Baichang, nicknamed Xiao Dazui. A moment ago, he was leading a team of ten under his command on the grassland to the south, responsible for the day's vigilance.

Speaking of which, this Xiao Dazui is also an old qualification in the Taixing Army. He was originally a small leader under the commander of the Yingchuan Yellow Turban Army, "Bocai". In the Battle of Changshe that year, the Han general Huangfu Song attacked with fire and broke the army of "Bo Cai Shuai". Xiao Dazui reacted quickly and escaped with his life from the pursuing Han cavalry.

Coincidentally, at that time, Zhang Mad was camped near the Changshe, so he contained Xiao Dazui and his defeated soldiers. At the beginning, Xiao Dazui did not take the hundreds of people under his arrogant hands in his eyes. Because of a small problem of eating meat, it caused a stir in front of the former military advisor Wang Guo for a while.

It wasn't until Zhang Madness led Zhou Cang, Dian Wei and others to come back with dozens of blood-drenched Han army heads that Xiao Dazui's careful thinking was completely subdued.

Then, Xiao Dazui, who was originally going to flee in disgrace, was borrowed a piece of meat by Zhang Yan.

An ordinary piece of venison is only half the size of a palm.

Later, Xiao Dazui ate countless pieces of meat. There is mutton, there is dog meat, there is mountain chicken, and even Pixiu [giant panda] meat. However, no piece of meat tastes like this half of venison.

This half of the meat, in Xiao Dazui's heart, is extremely precious.

"Bai Chang! The earth is shaking! ”

In Xiao's big mouth, he was chewing a piece of freshly cooked beef. In other words, when rewarding the whole army, the squad that was sent out to perform the vigilance task was actually very favorable. For example, Xiao Dazui, in addition to a large piece of cooked beef, there is also a large piece of roast mutton in the bag he carries.

Hearing the reminder of his subordinates, Xiao Dazui stopped chewing, carefully put the cooked beef back into his pocket, and then lay on the ground, listening to the movement from the earth with his ears.

Then, Xiao's big mouth's face began to turn white.

"You, Mom, Mom!"

Xiao Dazui jumped up from the ground, turned over and boarded the horse, and the person stood on the saddle, climbing high and looking into the distance.

The sun is slanting to the west, and it will be an hour before it sets. These brilliant sunshines dyed the riders of the brigade several miles away with a layer of gold.

"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack! ”

The ten-person team led by Xiao Dazui is not fully staffed. In addition to the injured Shi Chang, there are also two members who asked for leave to eat and drink, including Xiao Dazui, who temporarily led the team, but there are only eight people. With the strength of eight people, to deal with the cavalry of no less than a thousand people rushing from afar, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

However, it is not so easy to escape.

Although the Taixing army's surprise attack on the royal court was successful, the cost was also a lot.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, when the horseshoe had not yet been invented, the cavalry traveled thousands of miles, and the difficulty was far greater than that of later generations.

Although the 3,000 people who participated in the surprise attack on the royal court were equipped with 4,000 horses, most of these horses were not used for riding, but for carrying supplies and baggage. The march of more than 1,000 miles still relied on the big feet of the soldiers for most of the time.

Even the cavalry is no exception. Only when the enemy situation is discovered, can those cavalry be able to take a look at the horse. At other times, the cavalry also had to walk to conserve the horse's physical strength.

Even so, when the surprise attack on the royal court was successfully completed, the 4,000 horses were nearly dead and more than 300 were left behind, and the horseshoes were worn out excessively, and more than 1,000 horses were temporarily abolished. The remaining intact horses also lost their weight badly. So much so that when Xiao Dazui led the team out, the war horses he rode were all new horses that had just been captured from the Xiongnu tribe.

It is difficult to expect these new horses, which are poorly coordinated, to outperform those Huns who grew up on horseback under the control of barely qualified riding skills.

Xiao Dazui led his subordinates and galloped for a mile, but found that the distance between the two sides had obviously been pulled in a lot.

The enemy army [Banner], which was originally unclear, has now clearly displayed a vicious wolf with a hideous image in front of Xiao Dazui and his party!

ps: Sima Sui Tho, whose surname is Tian, is a descendant of Tian Wan (Chen Wan), a branch of the Qi Tian family [later in the Warring States Period, the Tian family who replaced the Jiang family to become the king of Qi]. The year of birth and death is unknown, and he was a native of Qi in the late Spring and Autumn Period. Due to its age, its deeds have not been circulated much, but its military ideas have a huge influence, and Jiang Shang is also called. Sima Qian praised: "Hongkuo is far-reaching, although three generations of conquest, it has not been able to fulfill its righteousness. ”
