Chapter VIII: The March
Bian Ji smiled coldly, lifted the reins, turned the horse's head and went to the front of the team.
Bai Shisan looked at the grateful old Orion and said, "I won't accept you, and when the war is over, you two will fend for yourself." ”
"The adults are willing to come to the rescue, and the old man is willing to follow the adults. ”
The old hunter pulled his granddaughter, clasped her head, and gave Bai Thirteen three clicks in the air.
The little girl was like a fried wild cat, with a look of resistance, and when Bai Thirteen was not paying attention, she gave the old hunter a kick.
"Whatever you want, when the fight starts, I won't be able to protect you. After speaking, Bai Shisan didn't say much, the closer he got to the battlefield, the more sweat came out of his palms.
This was the first time he had been so nervous since he practiced the Blood Refining Sword.
Compared to the taciturn Bai Thirteen and the girl, the old hunter was a chattering man.
He has been chatting with Bai 13 about some things, especially Bai 13's family situation, and he pays special attention to it.
When Bai Thirteen was suspicious, the old Orion also pointed to his granddaughter, who had a broken face all day long, and said that don't look at his granddaughter's black appearance, in fact, her face is thin.
Bai 13 heard the connotation of the words, and his face was full of black lines. I didn't expect him to cross over, and he couldn't avoid the greetings of matchmakers and enthusiastic elders.
Luoying Gorge
The brocade-robed warriors of the Chu army and Daxi were still in a state of confrontation, and Yuan Gong was pressed in front of the battle in a purple and gold gossip robe, his eyes full of exhaustion.
He had been using the Hope Qi technique to reconnoiter for a whole day, trying to find the flaws in the formation, but every time it was in vain.
Along the way, the old Orion chattered at Bai Thirteen, and when he saw the end of the brocade-robed soldiers, the old Orion was even more excited, and said to Bai Thirteen that he had never seen such a big battle in his life.
Bai Shisan really felt that this old hunter was not normal, how could an old man go to the battlefield and go shopping on the street.
Unlike the old Orion's nervousness, the little girl who should have been afraid of the battlefield has been silent from just now to now.
That kind of look is not fear, but with some faint murderous aura.
Bai Shisan noticed that her eyes were not good, but he was quickly interrupted by the old Orion, and his eyes were full of his smile like an old chrysanthemum.
"Get out. Bai Shisanqiang resisted the urge to beat him violently, and began to close his eyes and recuperate out of sight.
Bian Ji went to see the captain named Zheng Li, the two didn't know what they were talking about, and their eyes glanced at Bai Shisan's side from time to time.
Bai Thirteen was closing his eyes and recuperating, but all this was seen by the old hunter.
He smashed his mouth, called the swarthy girl aside, and said secretly, "Okay, just take out one, okay?"
"What?" the swarthy girl looked at the old Orion's hand on her shoulder, and looked unkind.
The old hunter smiled stupidly, and said flatteringly: "There is a way to save people's lives is better than to create a seventh-level floating slaughter, besides, the little brother Bai is still kind to us, hehe." ”
The swarthy girl pursed her lips, and reluctantly took out a crumpled piece of yellow paper from her arms, on which the vermilion drawing rune dragon and phoenix danced.
"I'm only three of them, so I'm cheaper for him. ”
After the swarthy girl took out the three pieces of yellow paper, she looked even more "chest against back".
The old hunter took the talisman with a smile and walked towards Bai Thirteen with a flattering face, which caused the girl to look disdainful.
Xu was afraid that it would not be enough, so he stretched out his hand and dishonestly pulled it into his crotch, and after taking out a talisman, he handed it to Bai Thirteen.
"For you. ”
Bai Thirteen opened his eyes when he heard this, looked at the old Orion suspiciously, and said, "Fu Zheng?"
Old Orion nodded.
"The precious kind?"
The old Orion nodded fiercely again.
"For me?"
The old Orion nodded vigorously and shyly.
"Shhhh
The old Orion's shy expression shocked Bai Thirteen with goosebumps. He took the two runes, the runes on them were obscure, and the only thing he could make out was the vermilion traditional characters on one of them.
A capital edict.
I couldn't read it, but Bai Shisan felt that the two tattered pieces of paper were quite compelling, so he happily accepted them.
"My lord, you can throw one casually in times of crisis. The old hunter laughed.
Immediately afterwards, he leaned over to Bai Thirteen, and said with a cheap smile: "Hehe, how many people in your family are there, I see that you recognized the young general in the army as a brother at a young age and became a centurion, your background should be very good, right?"
Bai Shisan glanced at him, there was a way to take people short, so he didn't send him away directly, and said: "I forgot, but I have always had a jade pendant on my body before, and my background should be good." ”
"It's pathetic, huh. By the way, my lord, what does your jade pendant look like? I heard that those big families have carved words on the jade pendant. ”
"Your words are too much, I can kill you if I can save you, you better put away your careful thoughts. ”
Seeing that Bai Thirteen said this, the old hunter covered his mouth very interestingly, looking innocent.
Soldiers who are new to the team must first confirm their identities to see if there are spies mixed in the middle.
Bai Thirteen was called, Zheng Li was wearing armor and looking down at Bai Thirteen from above.
"Are you Bai Thirteen?" asked Zheng Li.
"I've seen Captain Zheng. Bai Shisan's heart sank, on the way here, he had already heard the veterans under Wang Wei'an say that this Deng Li would be retribution, and he would be ruthless.
If you can slaughter those who have ordered the old and weak to be slaughtered in your own ranks, how good can your heart be?
But what Bai Shisan didn't know was that this side of Ji and Zheng Li were brothers of the opposite sex, and the two of them had worshiped together before.
Don't think about it, it must be Bian Ji and Zheng Li who sued.
The majesty of a general in the army is the first priority, Wang Wei'an and Zheng Li both gave orders on how to treat the old, weak, women and children of the enemy country, but the order can only be listened to by one person, Bai Shisan's actions undoubtedly slapped Zheng Li's face.
Besides, Zheng Li's mind was dark, and he couldn't listen to others singing against him.
Even more unacceptable to be a little centurion is a little centurion.
"Well, yes, it's a young hero. I see that the qi flowing in your body has faintly reached the threshold of the third rate, and there are indeed not many people who can reach the third rate at your age. ”
The more polite Zheng Li was, the more dignified Bai Shisan's heart became, and a smiling tiger like this was the most terrifying.
"Hey, that young man can't be the person you're looking for, right?" said the swarthy girl as she walked up to the old Orion and looked at Bai Thirteen.
The old Orion sighed and muttered, "I hope not. ”
"That's right, you won't be able to do it then. It stands to reason that I should hate him too, and let me do it when you can't do it. The girl's tone was flat, as if she had said something big.
"You dare! His descendants can only come to me, otherwise don't blame me for not keeping the agreement. Old Orion looked at the girl with an unkind face.
The girl smiled coldly and did not speak.
Bai Shisan returned with a heavy heart, and that Zheng Li actually saw through his cultivation at a glance.
The struggle for power in the army is even more serious than in the court. In the final analysis, the reason why the Son of Heaven can bleed a hundred miles when he is angry is because he has real power in his hands.
And real power is often simple and crude, specifically referring to military power.
In prosperous times, civil officials are seen, and military generals are relied on in troubled times.
The remaining brocade-robed soldiers, plus Wang Wei'an's troops, made up for the previous number of soldiers.
The entire army, except for Li Guang, has a total of two Huaihua generals, sixteen captains, and a number of centurions and centurions.
Captains compete with each other, captains compete with each other for generals, generals compete for grades, and marshals compete for stability.
Gradually, Bai Thirteen and they were arranged in a small camp in the middle of nowhere.
The army is deducted from one level to another, and it is difficult for people like them to be discovered by the generals above, and it is also difficult to get close to the generals.
So if you want to get in touch with these people, you can only fight for military merit and move up the ranks.
The people here are obsessed with these things, not only in order to soar, but more importantly, they want to survive the war.
In the face of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, it is always the big head soldier who dies.
How many people have returned to the ancient war?
If you want to improve the survival rate, you can only be the marshal who commands the battle, and if you can't be a marshal, you can be a general and a captain.
White Thirteen, the old hunter, and the maiden sat around the riverbank, and in the silence of the night could only hear the breaking and burning of branches in the campfire.
The old hunter took the grilled fish on the shelf and exclaimed hotly. After tearing off a piece of burnt fish meat with his mouth, he chirped: "Why don't you say Marshal Li Guang has given the order to attack, is it possible that he is engaging in the opposite mentality?"
After listening to the old Orion's remarks, Bai Shisan and the girl stood on the same front for the first time, and they all cast contemptuous glances at him.
"Commander Yuan inspected the formation in Luoying Gorge for a day in front of the army, and if there was a way, he would have attacked it a long time ago, so why should God have the opposite mentality. ”
Bai Thirteen said disdainfully.
"Eh, little brother, don't engage in personal attacks. In that case, this array doesn't need to be broken at all. I've heard of transporting grain and grass, but I've never heard of transporting water. There is no water source there, and even if there is food and grass, it will not last for a few days. ”
The old hunter ate his two grilled fish, and then reached out to pick up the swarthy girl's grilled fish as a matter of course.
The girl was about to punch and fight, but the old Orion narrowly dodged it, and gestured to the grilled fish that had already bitten and said, "Do you want more?"
"Fuck off!" said the girl, angrily.
"Turtles are turtles, if you are as simple-minded as you, then we won't be able to win the battle. ”
The corners of the old Orion's mouth twitched, and he got up to see who was putting the cold arrow behind his back. If you don't treat those people with rotten tongues today, then you will have been hunting for so many years in vain.
"Who is talking behind your back...... Say these great words. ”
Bian Ji stood in front of the old Orion, and his cold expression suddenly made the Old Orion dumbfounded.
"What? Mr. Orion, do you have any advice?"
The old hunter's face was the same as eating stool, and he was ugly to death, and waved his hand: "Where do you dare." ”
Bian Ji snorted coldly: "The Chu army has already introduced a clear spring in the canyon. ”
"I'm not here to give you popular science knowledge this time, Bai Thirteen will take the order!"
"The military period cannot be delayed, and Bai 13 is specially sent as the leader of the first advance team, and tomorrow with other advance troops, he will enter Luoying Gorge to kill the enemy and expand the territory for my Daxi. ”
After Bian Ji finished reading, he lifted Bai Thirteen from his half-kneeling state and stuffed the military order into his hand. The look of high hope in Bai Thirteen's eyes was simply a cheap look of begging.
After Bian Ji left, Bai Shisan was still silent.
The old hunter stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and asked tentatively, "Little brother, have you been calculated by that dog-mother?"
The girl scolded the old hunter and told him not to open any pot and mention which pot.
She opened her mouth: "I can't accept it if I change it, you can cry if you want to." ”
Bai Thirteen: "?"
"What are you two going to say? I'm just wondering if the spring is alive or dead. ”
"......" old Orion.
"......" swarthy girl.
"I remember hearing a joke in the market about a fool who had a frozen pear in his hand and went around asking people if the frozen pear was a frozen pear. Lao Dao touched his chin and said seriously.
"???" White Thirteen.
