Chapter 253: Yellow Sand on the Battlefield
After Qiu Jin left, I picked up the pen and ink, and then closed two letters, and after the fire paint was sealed, I painted the cover of one of the letters, and signed the other letter.
"Someone."
"The subordinates are here!" The guards at the door responded with a fist.
I handed him the two letters, "Send these two letters to Ji Xianxian's account, ask him to open the signed letter in person, and hand the reply letter back." ”
"Yes!" The guard clenched his fists, took it with both hands, and then turned and ran away.
After half a cup of tea, the guard ran back to write the reply, and I opened the page, and four words were written in thin and delicate style: I will not live up to the trust.
I smiled and lifted the curtain out of the tent.
The morning breeze was like a bath, and now it was a strong wind.
The beige military tent swayed with the wind, the dead branches in the distance were twisting vigorously, the dust on the ground was blown high and falling, and when I squinted, everything in heaven and earth seemed to be shrouded in a layer of yellow sand.
Everything is the same, the spring breeze turns into rain, after this strong wind, it will be the New Year......
"It's windy outside, let's go into the tent." A cloak was put on his body, and a gentle whisper rang in his ears.
I answered, and I turned and went back to my account.
It was just after noon, Qiu Jin came back to report, everything was ready.
Before then, a large number of guards, who had just eaten lunch, "began to have diarrhea" and were forced to move back to the city.
At the end of the day, all the "seriously wounded and sick guards" in the army were transferred away, and the "morale of the people in the army was discouraged" and the war exemption card was once again hung high......
At the time of Shen, my letter in the enemy army secretly reported that the barbarians in southern Xinjiang heard that the Western Qi soldiers should evacuate in large numbers, and they were scheduled to attack at night again around the end of the day......
I'm not afraid that you will come, but I'm afraid that you won't come, and Isaac will wait for you to throw yourself into it......
I tore the page in half, walked to the brazier, and threw it in.
"Hoo ......"
When the pages were on fire, they burned and turned to ashes in an instant, and a strong wind blew in from the corner of the tent, scattering some of the ashes in the basin, and sporadic fire points erupted from the edge of the basin, leaving a few gray spots on the ground......
At this time, it was dark, but it was still early to leave, and the army was all nervously deployed, and I was also a little nervous in my heart, so I picked out a military book from the side of the tent, poured a glass of white water, and slowly looked at it and waited.
I don't know how long I looked up, and Xuanyuan Chen was sitting next to him at some point, holding half a book in his hand, and reading it carefully.
As if sensing something, he curled the corners of his lips and turned his face to the side. The face of the change of face is ordinary, and a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes contain all the tenderness in the world.
My heart warmed, I picked up the warm tea on the table, took a sip, and then lowered my head to read again.
"Knock...... Knock knock knock ......"
In this way, I don't know how long I waited, and suddenly the sound of war drums came from outside the tent. The sound of the drum was unusually rapid, one after another, breaking the silence of the barracks like thunder.
"The enemy is coming, assemble, assemble!" I don't know who is yelling, there is a sound of weapons and armor, and the well-trained Xi Qi Erlang rushed out of the camp as fast as possible, dressed up, and assembled.
"What are we going to do when the enemy is coming?"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
The roar of the soldiers was heard in the wind, and a wave of blood burned in my heart, and I picked up the bright helmet beside me and walked to the door of the tent, but I was pulled back again.
"The battlefield is a man's world, and you don't have a lot of blood on your hands." He snatched the armor from my hand, tossed it casually, and then quickly tore the thick cotton canopy beside me.
After wrapping himself around me, he turned back to extinguish the candle flame, led me out of the tent, jumped up with a little effort, took a few steps in the air, and stopped on the highest beacon tower.
It's a place where you can see everything ahead, far from the battlefield.
In just a moment, the enemy's forward war horse has approached, Su Huo is wearing a silver helmet, the scarlet cloak echoes the handsome flag, holding the spear and drinking, suddenly there are war drums beating, the vanguard with guns and shields to meet each other, wearing navy blue and scarlet cloaks left and right vanguard holding spears and spears, with the army to meet the enemy formation......
Roars, shouts, the ramming of weapons......
Where your long sword goes, I mend the spear behind my back......
One fell, and three or five people ushered in ......
It's not the first time I've been on the battlefield, but every time I see it, I feel like I'm on the battlefield.
The battlefield is a cold place, but it is also a sacred place. Countless sons and daughters threw their heads and spilled blood for the sake of an inch of soil under their feet, defending it.
Over the years, I don't know how many heroic souls have been buried in this land.
And today......
The time has come to avenge them.
The wind at night swept up the yellow sand, and the air was filled with a sweet smell of blood.
Wait until Ji Yunchang picks down two more enemy soldiers, wait for Rong Ziyang to cut off another person's head, wait for the bearded Uncle Zhu to turn around again, and wait for Qi Lan to roar and raise his knife to chop down......
"Bang ......"
The first smoke rose in the distance, blasting a dazzling flower in the silent night sky.
"Withdraw! Evacuate! Su Huo said another, Shuai Qi turned back, and the carriage and horse retreated.
"I can't stand it, run, run!" The bearded General Zhu shouted with his voice out.
Ji Yun Changrong Ziyang took the lead in beating the horse, Qin Meng Qi Lan turned around and retreated, and the soldiers lost their backbone, so they turned around and ran away one by one.
"Bang........." The second letter smoke rises.
General Zhu panicked, "The enemy army has reinforcements coming, all the soldiers listen to the order, lighten the load, and evacuate quickly!" ”
"Evacuate the whole army, evacuate quickly!"
At the sound of an order, the soldier took off his helmet and armor, threw it into a pile, and fled backwards quickly.
After abandoning the armor, it will naturally run faster, and after adding those armor and some chariots, which are intentionally piled up in the middle of the road, the enemy cavalry can not leap into time, but half a minute, that is, a moment's effort, our army has withdrawn a great distance.
"Chase!"
The enemy general didn't know why, and as soon as he gave an order, he chased after him.
"Bang ......"
The third letter smoke rose into the air, and the officers and men of our army quickly fled with birds and beasts like frightened birds, and they did not panic much, and ran away without a trace in a moment.
"Hahaha! Let's win, burn the letter smoke, and let the reserve army come to meet us! The broad-faced general of the enemy army gave an order, and there was a small guard on the side, who took out his letter and pulled the rope, and with a "...... pull", a puff of white smoke rose into the sky.
"Count the enemy's reserves and clean up the battlefield!" He waved his hand in a spirited manner.
"Yes!" A small general on the side nodded, and then sent people around.
The other young general looked around with a solemn expression, and then realized what "will" ...... General, it seems that something is wrong, how come there are not many enemy corpses! ”
The two armies fought, and the defeat should be a mess, but I saw that the other party was running in a hurry, but I didn't see that the other party was injured, which is not right!
"Oh no, General, the enemy's tents are empty, the grain and grass storehouse is empty, and there is not even a pot in the fire room."
"What!" The young general was stunned.
Ran away from the desert and the pot was gone?
"It's a deception!" He reacted.
It's only now that I found out that there was fraud, isn't it too late......
"Whoosh......"
The wind blew, and several black oiled paper packets cut through the night in a graceful arc and landed under his horse.
"Hide, general, there is a hidden weapon!"
Someone shouted from the side, and the young general slammed his horse backwards.
After waiting for a long time and not seeing any movement in the paper bag, a soldier was bold and stabbed twice with a spear, and when he saw that there was no abnormality, he went over and picked up the paper bag.
Putting it under his nose and sniffing it, he handed it over and reported, "General, it seems to be fireworks!" ”
"Fireworks?" The broad-faced young man reached out and took it, hesitated for a moment, and then leaned over and put it under his nose......
This Qiu Jin is also too naughty. said that it was okay to throw it away instantly, but it didn't burn until a quarter of an hour after throwing it.
I deliberately increased the amount of those oily paper bags, if I held them in my hand, they would have exploded......
I couldn't bear it, so I quickly covered my eyes with my hands.
"Boom ......"
Almost as soon as I covered my eyes, there was a loud noise in the distance, and a fire rose into the sky, and I heard several screams, and the thick scorched paste blew in the wind and scattered in all directions......
"Boom...... Boom ......"
There were a few more loud bangs, and waves of heat rolled out, igniting the small packets that were lying in ambush under the shallow layers of the ground.
"Run! There is a hidden weapon! Ah......h
There were loud noises one after another, and the smell of blood and heavy burnt paste spread along with the screams, and I spread my hand a little to reveal a small slit to see.
Corpses, wrecked horses, broken tents on fire......
The originally neat camp tent was now in a sea of fire, with blood and wreckage everywhere.........
There were constantly oil paper packets thrown at the enemy, and there was a loud explosion, and there was not much left of the original large number of night raiders......
I picked my eyes and looked at it, in the distance, the night was full of wolf smoke, and a large number of guards who were attracted by the smoke of victory came on horseback, and the one who was wearing a white robe was Tuoba Hong.
Oh, there's a big fish.
Ma stepped on Suho, robbed the nineteenth princess Helian Yunsheng, and insulted my Su family's prestige.
This comparison should be settled today......
Pulling out the letter cigarette hidden in my belly bag, I pulled the string violently.
"Whoosh......" A puff of purple smoke rose into the sky.
At the same time, a loud bang was heard in the distance......
In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains shook.
There was a strong strange smell in the air, and the wind seemed to be a little stronger......
I didn't use my strength to probe anymore, and the result was already obvious.
"It's a little cold, let's go." I reached out and grabbed Xuanyuan Chen.
"Okay." He withdrew his shocked gaze, locked his fingers with my backhand, and walked slowly down the beacon.
Everything was expected, I had already asked Qiu Jin to bury a large number of improved thunder bombs on the way of the enemy's army, and all other thunder bombs would be ignited with just one paper packet.
The power of that thing, the three-year-old tree can burst horizontally, how can the flesh and blood compete with it.
As I said, I am very sorry for my life, I am not completely sure, how dare I make a military order, and now the situation is already obvious, isn't it?
I have already given Ji Yunchang a letter of resignation, and asked him to hand over another letter to Su Huo when he was a child.
He made a military order for me, and if he didn't take this opportunity to do something, it would be in vain for my previous lobbying.
Xuanyuan Chen is right, the battlefield is a place for men.
This night attack brought half of the enemy's troops in the city, and the letter smoke attracted the other half, and the enemy city was close to the empty city.
What should be done has been done, the road has been paved, the enemy border cities have been captured, and next, it will be up to those Xiqi Erlang.
"You haven't eaten in a day, but you're hungry?" Xuanyuan Chen asked.
I nodded, "It's a little, but I don't want to eat anymore, I'm a little tired." ”
Xuanyuan Chen bent his lips and smiled, picked me up horizontally, and jumped a few feet out of a few points.
The car and horses were tired, and after staying up for a day, I didn't feel anything before, but now the dust has settled, and I am really sleepy. Reaching out to wrap his arms around his neck, he found a comfortable position to lean on.
He drew me closer, a little under his feet, and rushed forward like an arrow.
There was the sound of wind in my ears and a loud noise in the distance, and I squinted my eyes, and sleepiness gradually set in.
"Little girl." He snapped.
"Hmm."
"Your explosive thing, it's like this, why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
"Secret."
He chuckled, "How many secrets do you have?" ”
I thought for a moment, "I don't think there is any, you know what you should know." ”
"What should I know? Does that mean there's something I shouldn't know? ”
He shook his head and smiled, "I have long felt that you don't look like a little girl at all, but you are still it." ”
I squinted at him, "What, you have an opinion?" ”
He leaned over and kissed me on the cheek, "How dare I have an opinion, it's too late to like it." It's just that if there is such a mysterious and strange thing in the future, you must tell me about it first, and don't let me be so surprised. ”
I hummed, closed my eyes again, and went to sleep in a daze.
This night, I slept until three strokes in the morning, and if it weren't for the crisp sound of firecrackers outside the window, I should have slept until Shen Shi.
I lifted the quilt and went to open the window in my galoshe.
Under the window, there was a busy old street, and the people were cheering.
We, victorious!
