Chapter 636 Pointing to the East and Fighting the West
Following the route of the Fenwu Battalion's retreat last night, the Shenshu Battalion also climbed over the hill to the north of the valley.
The hillside was littered with military supplies such as tents, pots and pans, and the small trees and weeds on the hillside were still rolling and crushing, and the traces of the collapse of several rocks were like new, which showed how much of a crime the Fenwu camp suffered when it was evacuated last night, and it is unknown whether someone broke his leg because of it.
Comparatively speaking, the Shenshu camp is much easier, without him, the blue sky and the white sun can be seen at a glance, where to climb and where it is steep and difficult to walk, just choose the easy place to climb up. Half an hour later, we had reached the top of the mountain.
Song Nan stood on the top of the mountain and built a pergola to look at the north of the mountain, under the mountain is an endless flat field, more than a dozen villages in the distance are left and right, and there is smoke rising in the village, a quiet scene.
"I can't see Grandpa Zhang's soldiers and horses." Xu Taidao.
Song Nan said with a smile: "Don't worry, they can't go far, after going down the mountain, he will definitely find a safe place to rest, there is always a place for them to hide in the village under the mountain, we don't have to look for it, just swagger down the mountain, the sentry will definitely report when they see it, and they will take the initiative to show up." ”
Sure enough, not long after the soldiers and horses of the Shenshu battalion appeared from the top of the mountain, there was a commotion in a village four or five miles away from the mountain, and after the noise of chickens and dogs barking, the soldiers and horses of the Fenwu battalion really drove out of the village entrance and fled to the southeast; Xu Taijiangbin was anxious to order the soldiers and horses to speed up the pace of going down the mountain to catch up, but Song Nan said: "Don't worry, slowly embellished them, don't let them have a chance to rest, they are tired of running, and they will naturally turn back and fight us to the death; Now they still have some strength to make them feel that they can get rid of us, but they can't get rid of us at all. ”
Following Song Nan's guidelines, the Shenshu Battalion hung behind the Fenwu Battalion and chased after him unhurriedly, Zhang Lun scolded angrily, but he was helpless. If he had chosen to fight head-on at the beginning, he might still have a chance of winning, but after being chased from morning to afternoon like this, Zhang Lun knew that there was no possibility of defeating the Shenshu Battalion.
Zhang Lun was quite angry, Song Nan was too faceless, how could he say that he was also standing in the same boat with him, first did Xu Guangzuo, and then the two of them fought, whoever won was fine, and now Song Nan clearly wanted to eliminate himself from the game first, so that Zhang Lun was really angry.
By the end of the afternoon, Zhang Lun looked at the exhausted appearance of the soldiers, and he was anxious and wise, and ordered to change direction and go directly to the south; Bypassing the east side of Eagle Mountain to the south, he will enter the range of the northern suburbs of the university field, and Zhang Lun knows that Xu Guangzuo must be leading his troops to come, maybe he can meet Xu Guangzuo's soldiers and horses, plus the Shenshu camp behind him, it is best for the three soldiers and horses to collide together, fight a chaotic battle, and completely muddy the water.
As Zhang Lun wished, in the evening, they saw the banner of the regimental battalion, and Xu Guangzuo led five hundred guards to catch up; Zhang Lun ordered the soldiers and horses to stop to rest, drink water and eat dry food, anyway, now that Xu Guangzuo is in front and Song Nan is behind, it is better to eat and drink enough to prepare for a big battle.
Xu Guangzuo set off early yesterday evening to ambush the soldiers and horses of the Fenwu Battalion, but the sudden disappearance of the Fenwu Battalion made Xu Guangzuo very annoyed; In order to buy that half an hour, he gave up so much of his necessary materiel that last night his soldiers and horses were frozen enough in the open air; One by one, the campfire trembled like yellow leaves on the trees, and many people began to have diarrhea this morning.
Lacking tents, pots and stoves and other necessary facilities, soldiers and horses sleeping in the open, eating dry food and drinking cold water, and his subordinates suffered a lot of crimes. But when the news came that Song Nan and Zhang Lun were fighting at dawn, Xu Guangzuo immediately chose to lead his troops to pick up the bargain; Song Nan and Zhang Lun's fight is what Xu Guangzuo is most willing to see, and now it is obvious that the two of them just consumed each other, and they were not out of the game and were directly sentenced to defeat and eliminate, which is what Xu Guangzuo is willing to see.
If they have attrition and are not eliminated, then it is the most beneficial for Xu Guangzuo, he can send any of them out directly, and then send another person out of the game after replenishing the troops; This is the loophole allowed by the rules.
When he saw the Fenwu Battalion, Xu Guangzuo subconsciously ordered to attack, but soon he saw the soldiers and horses of the Shenshu Battalion that fell behind the Fenwu Battalion, Xu Guangzuo thought for a moment and suddenly understood, and couldn't help laughing; The deputy general of the personal guard stepped forward, just like the second general Hum Ha next to the protagonist in the play, who is responsible for setting off the words and deeds of the protagonist: "Why is the governor laughing?" ”
Xu Guangzuo pretended to be pretentious for a while and said: "My brother-in-law ran away with my brother-in-law, but no one cared about outsiders, have you ever seen this?" ”
"I haven't seen it, I thought the two of them were a little tired, but I didn't expect it to be really real. The guns are dry. Now it's okay, let's watch the show. ”
"It is said that the whole army was ordered to be on alert and wait to see the play; Obviously, Song Nan chased Zhang Lun for a few streets, let Song Nan take advantage of this cheapness, and the old man will not mix. Anyway, they fought, and the old man couldn't interfere. ”
"What the Governor said is very true, we can't help, even if we can, we won't help, right?"
The three soldiers and horses are far away from each other in the northwest corner of the school field in the northern suburbs, and everyone knows that there must be a soldier and horse to be sent out today. After receiving the news, Zhengde and the ministers of civil and military affairs, who had been paying attention to the news, quickly rushed from the base camp in the middle of the school yard and looked over from the high platform in the distance.
As the sun set, the heavens and the earth were golden, and after a short period of silence, the horn in the Shenshu camp commanded by Song Nan sounded, which was a sign of an attack. Zhang Lun's face was pale, and he looked at the figures of the soldiers and horses of the Shenshu battalion getting closer and closer in annoyance, and reluctantly ordered his soldiers and horses to prepare for battle.
However, the direction of Song Nan's march was to the southwest, and Kankan and the Fenwu battalion passed by outside Lixu, just when Zhang Lun felt stunned, he suddenly saw the soldiers and horses of the Shenshu battalion speeding up their pace, and viciously pounced on Xu Guangzuo's personal guard battalion on the other side.
"Huh?" Zhang Lun opened his mouth wide in shock, it turned out that Song Nan was going to attack Xu Guangzuo's personal guard camp, and the annoyance in Zhang Lun's heart disappeared without a trace in an instant, after all, he was still his own person, how could he let Xu Guangzuo sit and reap the benefits.
Xu Guangzuo Shi Ran ordered the soldiers and horses to rest and watch the play, and suddenly saw the Shenshu camp in the oblique stab going straight to kill him, and scolded in shock: "This little thief is so vicious, engage, engage." ”
The soldiers and horses of the guard battalion were in a hurry, and when it was easy to set up the formation, the archers had just begun to draw their bows and shoot arrows in place, and the Shenshu battalion was already dozens of paces away. The archers only had time to release a round of arrows, but the soldiers of the Shenshu battalion seemed to have been trained to block the arrows with their useless left arm, and after being shot, they were judged not to be able to use their left arm at most, but they were not to be out; The hastily fired round of arrows only sent a dozen people out of the Shenshu Battalion, and the next moment they were already rushing in front of them with a shout.
"Three-three array, three-two array, one-one array, don't forget what Lao Tzu taught you." Jiang Bin took the lead, dragging a wooden knife like a singing Guan Gong, and shouted loudly.
No one understood what Jiang Bin was talking about, but the soldiers of the Shenshu battalion seemed to have been enchanted, and they quickly gathered together in twos and threes, spearmen, sword soldiers, sword soldiers, and shield soldiers formed battle groups one after another, complementing each other's short and long, covering each other, and at the moment of the battle, they made a judgment.
"Out!"
"Out!"
"Out!"
“……”
The judge's shouts were incessant, and the soldiers and horses of the regimental battalion were like a group of children fighting with a group of strong men, with little power to fight back, and under the strange combination formation, even if they wanted to kill one person, it would be difficult to work.
Jiang Bin's big wooden knife was waved in his hand like a toy, and the force was so strong that with a click, it slashed at the helmet of a general, and the head of the knife broke and flew into the air. What he held in his hand turned into a stick. Jiang Bin scolded, the stick in his hand was swept away, and without the black powder cloth bag on the knife head that could send people out, he could no longer send anyone out, but in this way, the opponent was even worse, and he couldn't get out of the game if he broke his tendons and fractures, and the crime was even greater.
Xu Guangzuo held two wooden shovels in his hands, and he was also a tiger when he danced, but after all, he was unforgiving, and after taking away the three soldiers of the Shenshu Battalion, he could only stand and gasp like a broken bellows. The battle proceeded quickly, and within half an hour of the handover between the two sides, the judge raised the gong on horseback and struck it.
"Stop, stop, the regimental battalion is out of the three hundred and six people, more than sixty percent, according to the rules, sixty percent of the people who are out of the game are defeated, I announce, the regimental battalion is eliminated!"
The officers and soldiers of the Shenshu battalion shouted jubilantly, Xu Guangzuo's face was like ashes, and without saying a word, he pulled out the command flag from his waist and threw it on the ground and turned to leave.
Song Nan shouted loudly: "Old Master Xu, please stay." ”
Xu Guangzuo turned around and looked at Song Nan with angry eyes and said, "What's the matter?" ”
Suddenly, when he saw Song Nan coming forward with a wooden knife covered with black ash in his hand, he was suddenly startled in his heart, and the cold hairs on his back stood upside down, and he suddenly remembered Song Nan's quirks.
