Chapter 129: A Defeat That Doesn't Live Up to the Name
"Everyone is drunk and I am sober alone", while Wang Xiaoer has hidden worries in his heart, he is more looking forward to and stealing joy, if there is no difficulty and setback, why does he Wang Xiaoer turn the tide and shine with a small role that everyone looks down on, and then his identity soars?
Wang Dashao and the others were looking for fun to their heart's content, while Wu Qi on the other side was not idle.
Wu Qi's designated combat discipline was very strict, and the incentives were also clear. Wu Qi paid special attention to the distribution of materials, fixed the number of people, gave priority to the supply of food and fresh water to the fighters, halved the supply of all female logistics personnel, and doubled the number of personnel who went out to perform tasks. For example, Wu Qi once made it clear that the location of the ambush, the time of the attack, and whether or not to supply the elite detachment that went out to harass in the past few days were all decided by the combatants.
Unconsciously, three days passed, after camping at night, for three consecutive days were on the road, on the tall horse pretending to be tired for a day to force the already tired legs of the pain Wang Dashao took off his boots and stepped on a pair of sour big feet on the crisp breasts of the beautiful female slave, the two demon slaves behind him carefully pinched the shoulders, Wang Dashao slowly squinted his eyes, just entered the state, but the grain and grass official swept his Yaxing.
As soon as the grain and grass officer entered the tent, he knelt on the ground and said with tears in his eyes: "Young Master, it's not good, it's not good." β
Wang Dashao looked like he hated iron but not steel, and said hatefully: "You are an old immortal, what's wrong with it, it's not good, ah? Didn't you see that Lao Tzu was tired for a day, and he just rested for a while?
The grain and grass officer hurriedly said: "Young Master, our fresh water consumption is serious, and it is already less than three days' stock!"
Wang Dashao was stunned for a moment, and said with a puzzled expression: "What do you say, why do you bring so little fresh water for three days? What are you doing as a grain and grass officer? Didn't you go through a hundred battles with the army before? Why can't you do this little thing, what's the use of me giving you so much money?"
The grain and grass officer used to follow the army, and it is an exaggeration to say that he has experienced a hundred battles, but it is not a problem to say that a total of 20,000 people eat, drink, and Lasa material management, and now there is a shortage of fresh water because the soldiers are not well guarded, and this pot cannot be carried by himself. The grain and grass officer stretched out his crying voice and howled: " The eldest young master is really wronged by the villain, we are now not short of clothes, grain, grass and salt, but there is a lack of fresh water, there is no shortage of fresh water, when we leave, we have prepared for thirty days, which can fully support us to finish this small battle, but it is a pity that the soldiers did not work, our water container was broken by the enemy a lot, and several noble ladies have to take a bath and wash clothes every day, and before departure, according to the rules, there should not be this fresh water reserve, so the fresh water is now seriously insufficient, the small anxious heart is burning, urinating can urinate and store blood, today it is not good, the little one can only come and tell the truth to the eldest young master. β
Wang Dashao was furious: "You old immortal, why did you say such a big thing until now? Do you know that you are delaying the fighter? How many heads do you have that can be cut off?"
The grain and grass officer could only give in: "The little one came to report on the first day, but it's a pity that the guards outside didn't let the little one come, saying that the eldest young master was discussing military strategy with a few noble sons, and if the little one came in, it would be an enemy spy, intending to get involved in the military plane......"
Wang Dashao blushed a little, at that time, they were discussing military aircraft, they were obviously gathering people to have fun, and naturally they didn't want others to disturb them, as for what they said to discuss military aircraft, it was just an excuse for them to throw out.
"Okay, then what other solution do you think there is now?" Wang Dashao regained peace.
The grain and grass officer raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said, "The best way is to go back first, and then go to war after raising fresh water." β
Wang Dashao thought for a while, of course it is impossible to agree, this time is equivalent to a duel, if he goes back like this, it will be tantamount to defeat, his fiancΓ©e is insulted, and he is being defeated, which is enough to make him lose the inheritance qualification of the next head of the family, and losing the heir qualification means that the second half of his life will be spent in oppression, so Wang Dashao is resolutely impossible to agree!
Wang Dashao said: "This is impossible, is there any other way?"
The grain and grass officer said: "If we can concentrate the fresh water in the army and distribute it uniformly, then we can still support it for seven days! It's just that the noble sons and ladies in the army still need the eldest young master to do the work." β
Wang Dashao waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go down first, you let me think about this matter again." β
Wang Dashao thought about it, and finally didn't come up with one, two, three, this time the composition of the team is more complicated, Wang Dashao just accounts for the largest number of people, he himself is okay to say, but his friends know that if they want to make them as standard as the soldiers, it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky.
However, Master Wang Da Shao is not a ten percent straw bale, the next day, Wang Da Shao began to command his subordinates to speed up the march, no longer the previous slow leisurely tour of the mountains and rivers, but the real rapid march, in addition, Wang Da Shao also sent real elite personnel to focus on the protection of fresh water resources. Wang Dashao naturally has his own abacus, the map shows that the next woodland is a day's journey, and in the case of hurrying up, it doesn't even take a day to arrive, as for whether Wu Qi will send someone there to defend it, it is not considered at all, when the army is approaching, there is only a dead end for the mantis arm to block the car.
After all, Wang Dashao is the eldest young master of the Pingyang Wang family, and everyone still has to give some face. Because of the precautions, several reconnaissance teams returned in disgrace, and one reconnaissance team was even almost caught and beaten to death because of their luck!
Half a day later, Wang Dashao finally saw a woodland not far away. There was a place in the woodland that was particularly shiny, and Wang Dashao knew that his guess was not wrong, it was his own fresh water.
Wang Dashao immediately instructed the grain and grass officer: "Listen, after entering the woodland, first fill all the guys who can fill water, do you hear?" Wang Dashao's voice just fell, and before the grain and grass officer could answer, he suddenly threw a few black smoke things out of nowhere, and everyone was stunned, and suddenly someone began to shout: "Cover your mouth and nose, be careful of poison!" Almost everyone subconsciously covered their mouths and noses, but it was useless to cover them, people's patience is limited, and there is no other way to breathe, at this time everyone found out that the black smoke is nothing other than choking people's eyes can't open, besides, the 20,000 army is hula wuyang wuyang that is a large number of people, and now in the open field, a few * no birds at all!
In the past few days, an enemy has not been caught, but has been teased by Wu Qi one after another, not only Wang Dashao, many people feel humiliated, so, Wang Dashao gave an order, and a team of 2,000 people rode a high-headed horse to the woodland. It's a pity that the expected success of the First World War did not appear, on the contrary, the two thousand centaurs quickly retreated, there is no way, the woodland that looks warm and harmless, I don't know why it has become a place of death, trapped in horse pits, cold arrows, poisonous needles, almost everywhere, and the ghost shadow of the person who entered did not see one, but was dizzy first, but heard the ghost crying wolf and shouting to kill.
Wang Dashao was very angry, because after counting the losses, it was only a loss of less than twenty people, compared to the huge team of two thousand people, this is nothing at all, but these guys have obviously attacked but they retreated in a daze, these hateful bandits, when they collect money, they say it well, but now they don't do anything practical when it comes to the end! Angry is angry, Wang Dashao can't be angry at this time, these thieves are not from the Wang family, there is no loyalty at all, the current situation naturally can't let them defect, they can still be used next, and then slowly clean them up after this matter is cleared.
The bandit faction is not moving, and the other big and young are also a bit slippery, Wang Dashao can only let his descendants go up, and his own people are his own people, although Wu Qi and the others are all in a hurry, and they are all called up, plus they are prepared in advance and wait for work, but the gap is the gap, and all the conspiracies and struggles in the face of real strength have become futile, in addition to the price of the surprise attack that caused hundreds of deaths and injuries to others, it still let these guys carry a few planks and slowly advance into the woodland. And after the two armies fought, Wu Qi's side also lost dozens of people, although everyone wore long-dyed clothes and scurried around to shoot arrows in the move, or the engine was turned off, but the opponent was overwhelmed in the end, and he couldn't see that the enemy simply threw arrows in all directions, but it made Wu Qi's side lose a lot of people, and even a few unlucky people won the jackpot, were shot in important parts, howled and fell to the ground, and saw that they couldn't live.
Wu Qi was not reluctant, and decisively ordered a retreat, while he himself personally broke off. There is no need to care about the gains and losses of one city and one place.
As soon as they fought, the gap between the two sides became apparent. Slaves are slaves in the end, and compared with the formed private army, they cannot be equaled by assault training in a short period of time.
Overall, in the first large-scale encounter, Wu Qi's side was defeated in a name that did not live up to its name.
