Chapter 15: Mutation
readx;
Xiang Liang never thought of why the cavalry of the Qin army, who had rushed to kill the large number of scattered Chu soldiers, would suddenly turn their horses and run in his direction. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info╔╗
Inadvertently, Xiang Liang heard something rattling above his head. When I looked up, I saw a large flag several feet high waving in the wind. Zhang Xu Chang's banner zhongyāng, the big "item" word, I am afraid that it can be seen clearly from a few miles.
The handsome banner has always followed the movement of the main general, and what the handsome flag refers to is the direction in which the whole army is advancing and attacking. This is the common sense that all soldiers learn from the first time they put on their armor and take on their weapons.
And the handsome flag cannot be lost at will. The loss or destruction of the flag means the defeat of this army! Therefore, the handsome flag has always been in the hands of the main general's henchmen and soldiers, called the lieutenant of the flag!
It seems that the soldiers around Xiang Liang still keep this common sense in mind.
If it is to ri, the soldiers around him can firmly protect the handsome flag in such a chaotic army without falling or losing, Xiang Liang will praise two sentences no matter what he says, and if he doesn't get it, he will directly give him a third promotion.
It's just that today, Xiang Liang looked at the lieutenant in charge of the flag, not only did he not appreciate it, but he looked like he was eager to tear him apart, if he could, Xiang Liang really wanted to cut him directly with a knife now. ╔╗
Seeing this cheerful banner fluttering in the air, Xiang Liang already understood why the cavalry of the Qin army would suddenly turn their horses and rush towards him.
The Qin army obviously knew the meaning of this handsome banner better than the soldiers of the Chu army. When he saw Shuai Qi, he naturally understood that the main general of the Chu army was himself, and Xiang Liang was here. Compared with ordinary Chu soldiers, his value is definitely much higher than those soldiers.
"Put away the banner! Fast! ”
Xiang Liang looked at the cavalry of the Blue Dragon Army who was rushing wildly, and shouted loudly.
After a while, the handsome flag of the word "Xiang" that revealed Xiang Liang's identity had disappeared. And the thousands of personal soldiers who surrounded Xiang Liang, under Xiang Liang's command, divided into two roads and began to flee separately.
And Fan Zeng, at this time, also sent 10,000 foot soldiers to intercept the 15,000 cavalry of the Blue Dragon Army. Fan Zeng found out that Shuai Qi was causing trouble earlier than Xiang Liang, so his reaction was a little faster than Xiang Liang. ╔╗
Du Teng, who was in the rear of the White Tiger Army, saw the cavalry of the Blue Dragon Army turn their horses and rush towards Xiang Liang, and couldn't help but hate and curse Xu Chuang. He knew very well that Xu Chuang was sent in to grab merit.
Who called the White Tiger Army no cavalry?
However, when he saw Xiang Liang put away the banner and drove out of Xiang Liang's camp to intercept the cavalry of the Blue Dragon Army on the other road, Du Teng smiled again. Du Teng also had a thousand guards cavalry by his side, which was the only cavalry left in the entire White Tiger Army after all the five thousand scout cavalry were dispatched. And all of them were his own soldiers.
"Zeng Lan, you lead a thousand soldiers to fetch that beam for me! Xiang Liang should be in the wave of Chu army that rushed to the camp. Du Teng said, handing the monocular in his hand to Zeng Lan, the pro-soldier lieutenant beside him.
The main generals of the five major legions, including Wei Yu, Meng Tian, and Zhang Han, now all have a monocular given by Hu Hai. After a period of exploration, the speed and success rate of manufacturing monoculars have greatly improved, although the cost of polishing lenses with pure crystal is still high, but Hu Hai can still have the capital to test the water.
Therefore, after more than ten monoculars were produced one after another, Hu Hai gave one for each entry. ╔╗On the march to fight, with such a telescope, it may be able to determine the outcome of a war at a critical time.
Zeng Lan, like Du Teng, was also born in the prisoner army, and also followed Du Teng to escort Hu Hai on his eastern tour and experienced the battle of Chengwu. At that time, Zeng Lan was Du Teng's personal soldier, and now Du Teng has become the chief general of the White Tiger Army, and Zeng Lan has also risen to become Du Teng's personal military captain, commanding Du Teng's 5,000 personal soldiers.
"General, we're gone, your safety ......"
"Do you think there is still a Chu army on this battlefield that can kill me? Don't be verbose, hurry up, or let Xu Chuang's cavalry take the lead, and see how I clean you up! Du Teng interrupted Zeng Lan's words and said viciously.
Du Teng now has the heart to eat Xu Chuang, who is upright and takes advantage of the fire to rob. Bullying into the don't bring such a bully, isn't it? The White Tiger Army is all foot soldiers, and the only 10,000 cavalry is still garrisoned by the emperor in Xianyang, so you can directly send your cavalry to grab the head that originally belonged to me? If it's just a grab, forget it, you still specifically grabbed the only few big fish that the emperor named and wanted, which is simply too much of a bully.
He knew very well that without Xu Chuang's instructions, it would be absolutely impossible for the cavalry of the Blue Dragon Army to turn their horses' heads and change their targets to kill Xiang Liang when they were supporting friendly forces. ╔╗You must know that the emperor has mentioned the matter of stealing merit from each other on the battlefield more than once.
There is a ban in the army, and all the generals and soldiers of the Qin army on the battlefield, as long as there is a matter of impersonating or competing for the first level of military merit, they will be killed. After killing, it will be permanently recorded on the blacklist of the Shangji Mansion, and this stain will be kept within one generation, and the military merits will be doubled after three generations.
That is to say, as long as there is such a thing once, then the relatives who join the army after three generations can be counted as military merits, and the descendants of this soldier need to kill two enemies to be equal to the military merits of killing one enemy.
This trick cannot but be said to be extremely vicious!
At the same time, Hu Hai also made clear punishments for the crimes that ancient soldiers were prone to commit, such as indiscriminate killing of innocents, looting of ordinary people, and jiānyin women. No mercy will be given! It will also be included in the blacklist of the Shanghai Accounting Office.
You must know that in Daqin, military merit is to obtain land and wealth, and it is the lowest and fastest way to obtain the title of glorious lintel. As long as there is such a thing once, not only will Xing's life be lost, but he will not be able to raise his head within three generations, who would dare to do such a thing?
The relationship between the five major legions and the five main generals from the Bashang battalion is extremely good. ╔╗
Now what Xu Chuang asked the Qinglong Army to do, in fact, in the final analysis, it is not a military merit, Bi Jing Xiang Liang is still an ownerless thing, and the cavalry of the Qinglong Army is even more under the banner of relaxation.
That's why Duten was so annoyed!
If Xu Chuang's cavalry of the Blue Dragon Army really took Xiang Liang's head or captured Xiang Liang alive, then even if he Du Teng was taken advantage of by Xu Chuang, he would still be grateful for Xu Chuang's help today, and a red and green family state would definitely be indispensable.
At that time, Du Teng was really bitter and couldn't say it!
Now that the Chu army is obviously bound to lose, Du Teng will not be able to let Xu Chuang, a cheap entry, grab Xiang Liang's head no matter what.
Zeng Lan looked at the telescope carefully, firmly remembered a few objects that were most likely to be Xiang Liang, and then with a roar, a thousand Du Teng's personal soldiers swept towards Xiang Liang's location like a lightning bolt.
The cavalry of the Blue Dragon Army itself was several miles away from Xiang Liang, and now there were 10,000 foot soldiers sent by Fan Zeng on the road to block it. Although the combat power of those 10,000 foot soldiers is basically negligible, it is certain that there will be a delay in time.
If nothing else, Xiang Liang's entry should be decided by Du Teng's thousand personal soldiers.
At this moment, on the battlefield, there was no need for the White Tiger soldiers to shout, and the knowledgeable Chu soldiers consciously threw aside the weapons in their hands, raised their hands and gave up resistance.
And when the soldiers of the White Tiger Army saw the soldiers of the Chu Army with their hands raised, they would immediately put away their crossbows and draw their weapons, and then some soldiers rushed out of the big array to take these soldiers of the Chu Army who put down their weapons and raised their hands high from the battlefield and went to the side to guard.
Seeing this scene, more and more Chu soldiers who were forced by the White Tiger Army's strong crossbows to have no way to enter the ground threw down the weapons in their hands one after another, and raised their hands high in the same way, waiting for the White Tiger soldiers to retract.
If you can notice the first batch of Chu soldiers who put down their weapons and surrender, they will find a common denominator. That is, they all have the word "punishment" branded on their faces.
There was a surrender and a life, and more and more Chu troops began to give up running away and chose to surrender and live. Among the five major legions, they have been specially trained to deal with surrendered soldiers, and putting down their weapons and raising their hands high is exactly the way Hu Hai once taught each legion to deal with surrendered soldiers.
Xiang Liang desperately beat the war horse under his crotch, wanting to join Fan Zeng. Fan Zeng was also anxiously waiting for Xiang Liang to arrive. The Qin army sent a force of more than 1,000 cavalry to chase Xiang Liang, and Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng both saw it.
Fan Zeng was too far away from the Qin army with more than 1,000 entries, so Xiang Liang once again sent half of the personal soldiers with less than 2,000 troops around him to intercept Zeng Lan's 1,000 cavalry.
Now the pro-soldiers who are following Xiang Liang's side are only a few hundred.
Xiang Liang didn't notice that among the hundreds of personal soldiers who were still around him, more than 100 of them were Chu soldiers with the word "punishment" on their faces, and these soldiers were quietly surrounding Xiang Liang at the moment, squeezing out the Chu soldiers who did not have the word "punishment" on their faces around Xiang Liang.
If Fan Zeng didn't pay attention to Xiang Liang, pay more attention to his surroundings, and he would find that where he was standing, the Chu soldiers surrounded by him were also branded with the word "punishment" on their faces, and there were more Chu soldiers with the word "punishment" on their faces that were quietly moving forward, slowly gathering towards Fan Zeng's location.
However, at this moment, on the chaotic battlefield, he didn't notice the strangeness of these soldiers who had been in the middle of the Chu army with the word "punishment" on their faces and cold eyes.
Xiang Liang, who was riding his horse and galloping, suddenly heard a loud whistle sounding beside him.
At the moment when the whistle sounded, a shadow rose from the war horse on Xiang Liang's left side, and pounced towards Xiang Liang like a fierce tiger descending from a mountain. At the same time as this shadow pounced on Xiang Liang, more than 100 people surrounding Xiang Liang actually pulled out the copper sword on their waists at the same time, and slashed towards the Chu soldiers around him.
Xiang Liang never thought that he would be attacked at this time! Before his head could react, he felt a strong force and was already thrown off his horse.
A series of screams and exclamations sounded, and Xiang Liang's personal soldiers, who were suddenly attacked, fell off their horses with screams. The hundreds of personal soldiers surrounding Xiang Liang were in chaos in an instant.
