Chapter 237: Driving the Tiger and the Wolf
(Thanks to the Great Alliance!) Thank you Zhao Wuxian 2014, UFGW, Richmond. All of you are a source of power! )
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Boom! A corpse was thrown into the pit, the stiff body bouncing over the dense pile of corpses.
"Take your hands and feet lightly." Xu Huang's thick eyebrows on the side of the corpse pit frowned slightly, "These soldiers are all soldiers who fought to the death in frontal combat, which is different from the rebels you buried a few days ago. Those are all cowards who turn their backs on the enemy, and are even trampled to death by their own people, and they can't bear the clothes they wear when they die. ”
The servants who carried the corpse hurriedly said yes, and the next action was much more careful, and the corpse was slid down the corpse pit. Until the last body is laid to rest, then the shovel begins to fill the grave.
Xu Huang sighed lightly, he knew that burying these soldiers who died bravely in this way was somewhat disrespectful, but his ability could only do this. Collect the bones of the corpses, and prevent them from being exposed in the wilderness, or kissed by beasts, and nothing else can be done.
At this time, a few servants came running quickly, and reported to Xu Huang with an excited face: "Captain, the people of Xiliang left a lot of supplies last night, and they haven't had time to clean up the battlefield, and the rest of the things are all cheap to us." It's ridiculous that those white wave thieves are also here, and they still want to pick up the leak, haha! We don't even leave him a turban. ”
Xu Huang had a contemptuous look on his face and did not speak.
Hu Congxi said: "Xiliang people are poor, except for being able to get some horse meat, they don't want anything else." However, the people of Liaodong are rich, and those soldiers are wearing armor and leather helmets, and their blades are much better than ours. Unfortunately, most of them were destroyed in the fierce battle and had to be rebuilt. ”
Hu Xiao's words reminded Xu Huang of the sharp axe that Ma Han gave him. Nodding his head, he said, "Yes!" Liaodong's soldiers are sharp, the soldiers are not afraid of death, and the grain is sufficient, so strong reinforcements, I don't want to get married, I only care about Mingzhe to protect myself, alas......"
Hearing that Du Wei meant something, Hu Cong didn't dare to make a sound. After a while, a pair of stirrups and a horseshoe were found and presented to Xu Huang: "Captain." Those Liaodong people's war horses are equipped with this peculiar harness, you see......"
Xu Huang took it, he didn't care about it at first, but suddenly he seemed to feel something, stared straight at the stirrup, rubbed it for a long time, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "I see!" Zhou Cang, is this how you relied on me to take two heavy blows? I said how strong your waist and horse are, it turns out ...... Hehe. This thing is very good, Liaodong people, it is really not simple. ”
Hu Cong asked, "Then what should we do with this thing?" ”
Xu Huang groaned slightly. He said: "Put it properly first, put it in my camp tent, and then report to the general after it arrives in Luoyang." ”
Suddenly, I saw a gallop. Shouting from afar: "Captain, the general is urgently called!" ”
When Xu Huang hurried back to the camp, he had just entered the gate. I was surprised to find that a group of cavalrymen dressed in completely different suits were feeding the horses while adjusting their bows and sharpening their knives, all of them looking calm and composed, and they knew at a glance that they were veteran soldiers. Among them was a stout banner head, holding a large sword, and the wolf head with fiery red eyes was particularly eye-catching.
The white wolf headhunting banner of the Liaodong Army!
Xu Huang was surprised, and couldn't help opening his mouth slightly, it couldn't be ...... That guy is here, right?
After Xu Huang reported it, he stepped into the tent of the Chinese military commander, and as far as he could see, he was finally convinced that that person was really here.
In the middle of the tent, the expression on the face of Yang Feng, the general of Xingyi, was a little unhappy and restrained, and when he saw Xu Huang enter the tent, his face was slightly pale, and he said to a person on the left: "Okay, Captain Xu is here." Ma Jun can ask him about last night's battle in detail, and I, Yang Feng, did my best. ”
Xu Huang gave a military salute to Yang Feng and the man respectively, and asked in surprise, "Why did General Right come back?" Son of Heaven ......"
The person beside Yang Feng was Ma Han, he was dressed in a military uniform, holding a horse whip, and the wind and dust were blowing, obviously he had just arrived, and nodded to Xu Huang: "It's clear that I'm tired." The Son of Heaven is still going down the river to the east, and he is fine. I came here just to collect the debts, and I would rush back immediately after collecting the debts. Well, if we can catch up, maybe the Son of Heaven and his entourage have not yet arrived in Luoyang, and we will have already landed. ”
Accounts receivable?! Xu Huang's mind flashed over the army he had just seen in Yuanmen, and he sighed lightly: "General Right is here for the Xiliang army's attack on the camp last night, right?" Alas! I didn't expect Li Cheng to be so decisive, mobilizing half of his guards and the most elite Qianghu army, breaking through from the junction of the camp of King Youxian and General Hengjiang, and penetrating directly into the camp of the Liaodong Army, and we can't stop it......"
Ma Han waved his hand: "Needless to say, Gongming's help will be rewarded in the future." Oh, the friendship of General Xingyi's help is also remembered in my heart. I would like to make it clear again and again that this return is not to hold anyone responsible, but to ask all the generals to deal with the offensive of the Xiliang Army......"
Before Ma Han's words fell, a sharp voice came from outside the tent: "General Right is serious, right?" The Xiliang army has been newly defeated, its morale has been frustrated, and there are occasional counterattacks, but it is just a grasshopper after the autumn, just a few jumps, where is there still the strength to attack in an all-out way. ”
While talking, the two entered together, one fat and one thin, it was Hu Cai and Han Xian. The speaker was none other than the fat Fengyi general Han Xian.
Ma Han coldly swept the two "generals" who had just taken off the thief's hat for less than a month, and said lightly: "Hasn't the Right Virtuous King arrived yet?" ”
Han Xian squinted and smiled: "Just now, the Huns came to my camp and said that their Right Xian King went out to inspect." Our four battalions of officers and soldiers are all patrolled and monitored by the Hun cavalry, otherwise they would have been taken advantage of by the Xiliang people a long time ago. ”
Ma Han nodded, his face expressionless: "Okay, since the Right Sage King has gone to do business, we can't be idle." It's not early, time is short, and I'm not talking nonsense, please listen carefully to the three generals - I'll go out to fight Li Dao now, you can come or not. Whether you come or not, be prepared to bear the consequences of your actions. ”
Yang Feng, Hu Cai, Han Xian and others secretly cursed in their stomachs, but they were afraid of the prestige of Ma Han's night break through the Xiliang military camp and defeat Li Dao, so they had to swallow their anger and asked in unison: "How many soldiers and horses did General Right bring?" ”
Ma Han stretched out two fingers: "But take two lives, two hundred men and horses, it's enough." ”
Looking at the figure of Ma Han striding away, Hu Cai couldn't help but snort: "This guy is crazy, and he wants to tie us up and go crazy." Bah! Didn't he break through the three battalions of the Xiliang Army with three hundred horses? Then do it again, what are we doing! ”
Han Xian's vagina: "I said how many people he brought here, it turned out to be just that, this is to drive the tiger and chase the wolf." Think we're stupid...... Hmph, the equipment of the Liaodong people is really not lazy, the soldiers and armor are complete, and the cavalry is even more one-man and two-horse, it is better to ......"
Xu Huang blurted out: "No! He immediately saluted Yang Feng and said, "General, the right general is fighting against the Xiliang army, if we stand by and watch, and ask the Son of Heaven on another day, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain...... The meaning of subordination. We should at least send a large army to sweep the formation, and we must not make the right general lose. ”
Hu Cai was dissatisfied: "Didn't you just fall into Ma Jinglong's trap?" He's counting on us to help him, Fox...... What kind of power is the fox. ”
Xu Huang still wanted to fight, but was stopped by Yang Feng's wave of his hand, stroked his beard, glanced at the generals, and said: "We have received the grain and straw of the Liaodong people, and now the Liaodong Taishou is begging us again, and we can't get out." I can't say it...... In this way, each battalion will send hundreds of soldiers to help the field and pull the flag to cheer. It should also be, what do the two generals see? ”
General Hu and Han looked at each other and smiled, both of them laughing strangely: "Hundreds of soldiers?" Of course, no problem. Hey hey ......"
Xu Huang looked at the three generals and sighed secretly in his heart. As a commander-in-chief, I don't think about how to fight every battle. Calculated all day long, just want to take advantage of small advantages, form small circles, and ignore the overall situation. It's really embarrassing to follow such a lord!
Outside the gate, Ma Han led two hundred wolf teeth to fly, one person and two horses, killing and running out of the camp, the iron hooves shook the ground, and the momentum was amazing.
In the smoke and dust, Wu Chai, who was on the left and right, asked loudly: "Lord, will the three marshals of Bai Bo send troops to help?" ”
Ma Han said lightly: "No matter what, they don't dare to come out." ”
"But what if they only send a handyman to fill the number?"
Ma Han glanced at Wu Chai, and a needle flashed in his eyes: "I have given them the last chance, if you don't know how to advance and retreat, and respond perfunctorily, then don't blame me for being ruthless!" It's right to drive away tigers and wolves, but if you think you're the 'tiger', you're very wrong! ”
……
The appearance of the red-pupiled wolf flag was like a long thorn, stabbing the hornet's nest of Li Ji's camp and exploding at once, and even Guo Yan and Zhang Ji's camp, which were several miles away, were alarmed.
When the third battalion of Xiliang was disturbed by a big flag, in the northwest of Li Wei's camp, in front of a camp tent, more than ten servants were also busy loading boxes and cages on two ox carts. From time to time, a voice with a peculiar metallic texture came from inside the tent: "Except for books, clothes, and millet, you don't need to bring anything else that you can't want, so as not to drag down your trip." ”
At this time, there was a burst of neighing from outside the tent, and then a deep voice sounded: "Is the gentleman there?" ”
Hearing the sound in the tent, a person walked out, wearing a green curtain, a long figure, wearing a green robe, a jacket, about forty years old, three locks of long beard black and neat, darker and brighter, is his pair of slender phoenix eyes, looking at people always flashing with an undisturbing light, with a straight eagle hook nose and the corners of the mouth hooked a weird smile, the whole person exudes a breath of life that is not approachable.
The gentleman's eyes narrowed slightly, and his thin lips hooked: "It turned out to be Wen Jing, are you here to say goodbye to the old man?" ”
The person outside the tent was wearing a phoenix-winged helmet, wearing an iron leaf scale armor, with a majestic figure, a majestic atmosphere, and two thick beards, no more than thirty years old. Behind him, there were more than a dozen knights in bright armor. The person who came bowed deeply: "The embroidered book is waiting to send Mr. a ride, but the enemy will fight, and my uncle will gather the drums, and after the war is over, Mr. is afraid that he has already passed the Tong Pass." ”
The gentleman's eyes flashed, and he was quite interested: "The White Wave Army dares to fight?" You won't do this if you go to humility, and it's impossible for Hu and Han to be thieves, Yang Feng and Song Guo...... At least not at the moment, it is reported that Xu Huang is quite brave, but Yang Feng will not allow him to act rashly...... Who is it? ”
Two words came out of the lips: "Ma Han! ”
Mr. raised his long eyebrows high, fell gently, his eyes were bright, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was even stronger: "It's actually him...... Amazing, so daring! How many centaurs did he take? ”
"Only two hundred horsemen and one boat."
The gentleman closed his eyes, twisted his black beard, and did not say a word for a long time. The people who came were also calm, and waited quietly.
After a long time, Mr. took a long breath: "Do you drive the tiger and chase the wolf?" In such a dangerous way, even the old man could not see through what means he was going to use to achieve this goal...... However, Ren Er has changed a lot, and in the end, there is only one way out. Ma Han, Ma Han, is it really that I have no one in Xiliang - Wen Jing, do you want to make the first contribution? ”
The first merit? Cutting the general and capturing the flag is the first achievement, is it ...... The visitor's eyes lit up, and he arched his hand heavily: "This Gu Zhang embroidery wishes, please give me advice." ”
A sinister smile appeared on the gentleman's face: "It's not difficult to win the first credit, just Wen Jing needs to borrow something from Da Sima." ”
"What?"
"When the eight hundred iron cavalry attacked the Liaodong military camp last night, the wolf head banner was obtained."
It's as simple as that? But seeing the determined look on Mr.'s face, with Zhang Xiu's understanding of his person, he knew that as long as this person calculated, there was almost no possibility of missing. Overjoyed, he said: "Mr. sent embroidery to the first merit, embroidery is not reciprocated, I am willing to give Mr. a team of sharp soldiers and four carriages and horses to protect Mr. West." ”
Mr. looked up to the sky and smiled, his voice was like a golden stone: "Thank you Wen Jing for your kindness, Jia Xu has accepted his feelings." People can ask for it, but there is no need for cars and horses, and there is already the best way to travel. ”
One Jia Xu, one Zhang Xiu, joined hands to pit people, and even Cao Cao, the leader of the Three Kingdoms, suffered a heavy loss.
So, what about the horseman? (To be continued......)
