Chapter 96: General Zhenbei
The eagle on the horizon swept across the blue and clear sky, the wilderness was unruly, the green pine and green grass, the sky covered the wilderness, climbed high on a cliff and looked into the distance, the smoke was billowing in the distance, Yuwen Shu rode the horse to stand on the edge of the cliff, his eyes were full of cold frost. ,
Several scouts rushed and knelt on the ground, and one of them said in a loud voice: "General Qiyu, a thousand-man cavalry in the distance has been ambushed, and the whole army has been annihilated, and the grain transport team has also been intercepted and killed, and all the grain has been burned. ”
Yuwen Shu said coldly: "Do you know, who is the enemy who attacked?" ”
"It seems to be a group of bandits and horse bandits." The person who answered said in an uncertain tone.
Yuwen Shu was silent, but made a gesture to guard a bronze masked guard beside him, one of his most powerful personal soldiers, one of the thirty-six iron horsemen, and said loudly: "The general orders you to retreat." ”
Several scouts breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, especially the scout who was questioned, his back was already drenched in sweat, and when he heard that he retreated, he respectfully retreated. In the army, there are few people who can be calm in front of him.
Yuwen Shuguan to General Zhenbei is in charge of the strength of a town on the northern border of the empire, and the northern border gathers most of the elite soldiers of the empire, divided into nine towns, and nearly 300,000 first-class field soldiers. However, Yuwen Shu has one-ninth of the troops on the imperial border, which can be described as a high and powerful position, and is deeply valued by the auxiliary generals.
Since he was a child, his parents and relatives all died in the war in the north, and the general of the auxiliary country led the army to pass by the village destroyed by the war, and saw that he was lonely, so he adopted him. When the general was young, he was a famous general of the empire, noble-born, and deeply respected by the emperor. Therefore, a juvenile camp was set up in the military camp to adopt many orphans in the army, as well as orphans abandoned due to the war. ,23
When he grew up, most of them followed him to fight in the north and south, and Yuwenshu was one of the most outstanding, the general personally took him with him, passed on his art of war and tactics, Yuwenshu also lived up to expectations, almost every battle must be won, and there are few defeats.
Yuwenshu has a lot of law in dispatching troops, and he can always anticipate the enemy when he uses troops. He was particularly strict with his guards, and anyone who dared to violate the military law, whether it was a brave soldier or a close guard, would be killed. Therefore, the commander's army is well-trained and well-organized, and every time he fights bravely, he is not afraid of life and death, and his headquarters soldiers are rare in the world.
Although Yu Wenshu is in a high position, his clothes are still simple and plain, and he does not accept gifts of money from others, and every reward issued by the imperial court is distributed to his subordinates. Therefore, although he was strict and upright to his subordinates, and his subordinates were deeply afraid of him, the commander's soldiers were willing to serve him to the death.
The general was very happy to see that he had made many great achievements, and it was not easy to promote him from a small soldier to a general. Yuwenshu is a person, withdrawn and not easy to get close, and he doesn't like to be close to his colleagues, every time the general and the generals drink heartily to boost morale, although Yuwenshu reluctantly followed, but he didn't drink in the banquet, because his presence affected the atmosphere of the entire banquet, and the result was full every time.
After such a thing happened several times, the general also had a headache and had to send him out so as not to spoil the atmosphere of the banquet.
Because he had witnessed brutal killings at a young age, hatred was torn deep in his heart, and every time he led his troops into battle, the killings were very heavy, and there were many killings of prisoners of war and civilians, and the general did not listen to him every time he was advised, and he could not even restrain him.
Yuwenshu is handsome and handsome, courteous, when he was a teenager, he was often mistaken for a woman, Yuwenshu was deeply disliked, so he put on a hideous bronze ghost face, so he called him "Ghost General", the enemy called him "Ghost General", and the personal soldiers and guards all followed suit, everyone wore a bronze ghost face, and the enemy and I were all afraid of it.
After all the scouts retreated, Yuwen Shu said in a cold voice: "Deng Yun, you say, why is a thousand feathered cavalry, the famous elite cavalry of the empire, actually ambushed by a group of bandits and horse bandits, and the whole army will be annihilated. ”
The guard hesitated: "General Qiyu, first, the battalion of the feather cavalry is too light on the enemy, and the enemy's plan to lure the enemy, the second is that the enemy leads the feather cavalry to the terrain that cannot be used, and the melee fights together, the cavalry becomes infantry, and the combat power is greatly reduced, and the third is that the enemy is numerous, and the feather cavalry is besieged from all sides, and then the whole army is annihilated."
Yu Wenshu said lightly: "The enemy is not an ordinary person, he has such a careful strategy, and he is also a character. However, it can be expected that the other side intended to attack the grain delivery team. ”
"In the general's opinion, this group of bandits and horse bandits attacked in a premeditated and planned manner, could it be that someone instructed him?" The guard, Deng Yun, was taken aback.
Deng Yun lowered his head and pondered, then raised his head sharply and said, "General, is it the anti-thief of Nanyang City!" This group of people is not bandits and horse bandits at all, but the elite of anti-thieves! ”
Yu Wenshu sneered and was silent, and pointed to the direction in which Zhang Yan and the others retreated: "You say, now while they are returning victorious, what will be the result of our surprise attack." ”
Deng Yun's eyes are clear and firm,
