Except for the many ox carts, there were endless tents, and around the camp, let alone the fence, there were not even soldiers guarding it, and the large camp was in a hurry, trying to stop our attack.

With the sound of shouting, the unscathed one hundred and twenty-one horsemen moved again, and within a hundred paces around us, not a single thief dared to approach, and the defenders of the city, drinking the foot soldiers of this son, were also shouting for victory

"Wan Sheng" I raised the Hundred Refining Horizontal Knife that was still stained with blood in my hand, roared angrily, put down the armor, and immediately rushed in the direction of the enemy's large camp about three hundred paces away from the city wall.

The thieves were like the hamsters, and before they could get close to them, they were already fleeing in panic, and a few arrogant and conceited leaders of the thieves rushed towards us.

The horizontal knives in their hands, under the full swing of the force, except for a shallow white mark on the surface of the plate armor, did not move. At the moment when the thief was in a daze, he shouted with a clear voice. An arc of light flashed, and a head flew into the air, and on the skull, Fang Cai's unbelievable expression was still revealed.

It's actually Sister Qingxia, damn, this son doesn't have much strength at the moment, so he sits on horseback, panting with his sword and watching these heavily armored knights around him search for the enemy.

At this moment, the more than 10,000 thief troops in the camp, as well as the thief army that attacked Luochuan City, were already rushing towards the suburbs around Luochuan County. It's as if if you run slower, you will be cut off by the sharp sword.

Seeing this scene, Han Shige hurriedly made a suggestion to me, asking that the cavalry be sent to the north to block all the thief soldiers who tried to escape from the north, so as to cut off the connection between Zhu Cang's headquarters and the thief army under Luochuan County, so as not to expose our strength to Zhu Cang's eyes.

Soon, the three hundred cavalry divided into three groups, and galloped towards the north, either with swords or with bows, and shot and killed the thieves and soldiers who wanted to flee to the north, and drove them away, only to the east and west, or to the south.

From the beginning to the end of the battle, it took less than two quarters of an hour, and in these two quarters of an hour, more than 1,700 enemies were killed, and the rest were scattered, and the 300 cavalry had already driven all the thieves who had fled to the north to the two flanks.

Under Luochuan City, only more than 3,000 prisoners of war remained, and more than 2,700 men and women who were used as food by these thieves.

As I watched these scrawny, unclothed men and women who had been used for food sit in the middle of the camp with withered faces, all looking at us with a dazed and desperate look, and seeing these people, my eyes were like a rising mist, obscuring them.

"Li Yuanfang, send a battalion of soldiers over to see if there are any injuries, and cook more gruel, be sure to save them." I turned around and drank, and Li Yuanfang, whose eyes were red, nodded vigorously and beat the horse away.

Soon, a battalion of soldiers rushed over and made porridge on the camp of the thieves. And the men and women who were used as food, though they were too hungry to walk, at least their eyes were not blind, their ears were not deaf, and a few of them seemed to have some strength to rise to their feet, and wanted to come to our side.

The soldier who was already checking their bodies was caressed, and I took a deep breath, turned over and dismounted to meet them.

Among them, the farthest was actually from the Jingzhou area, and was coerced by these thieves, while the closest was a person from Guanzhong, who was caught by the thief army in the area of Zhongnan Mountain.

While letting people cook porridge, while checking their bodies, I also comforted these poor people with kind words, at this time, someone finally came to report, Luochuan County County Commander and Luochuan County officials asked to see.

I also asked Wei Yunqi to continue my work, and then I took Han Xiong and the guards to meet the officials of Luochuan County who were walking towards this side.

Luochuan County Commander slammed his son to the ground, and thanked him again and again, this guy is about forty years old, but it seems that the past few days have been hard enough, his face is haggard and withered, and his eyes are dull, which makes this guy think that this guy is pretended by those poor people who are used as food.

And the other Luochuan County officials are not much better, anyway, they are saying words of gratitude, these days, they are like a year, and fortunately, they learned ten days ago, when Zhu Cang, the head of the Dahan thief, led the army to leave Zhongnan Mountain and march to the northeast, Chen Keqing, the Taishou of Shangjun, was very worried that Zhu Cang would pass through his territory, so he split the 9,000 county soldiers in his hand and guarded the other two counties with 2,000.

The most important and most populous Wujiaocheng and Luochuan County were stationed in heavy troops, Chen Keqing led 4,000 towns to guard Wujiaocheng, the county governor's office, and Juncheng led 3,000 county soldiers to guard Luochuan County. After ten days of hard fighting, the unlucky Shangjun Juncheng broke through the city wall on the seventh day, and after he led the soldiers to drive the thief army off the city wall, he was also cut by the thieves, and he is still recuperating in the county commander's mansion.

I nodded, and began to ask about the situation in Wujiaocheng, well, according to these officials, the situation in Wujiaocheng is slightly better than they are here, but it is not much better. Because the thief army attacking Luochuan County was not the main force, most of them were old and weak.

And its elite is mostly concentrated under Wujiao City, but fortunately, Wujiao City is the seat of a county, so the wall is high and the city is thick, and there are certain city defense equipment on the city, so it is difficult for Zhu Cang's thief army to break through in his eagerness.

"By the way, these homeless people ......" I turned my head and pointed to the poor people who were now gathered in front of those big stoves, sniffing the smell of food coming from the pot and swallowing their saliva, and my eyes fell on the face of the county magistrate of Luochuan County.

The county magistrate of Luochuan County had a bitter face, and saluted me and said: "Guogong, tell the truth, in the past two years, our people here in Luochuan have been bitter enough. The official warehouses in this county are almost bottoming out."

The words of the county magistrate of Luochuan County made me silent for a while. "Well, since that's the case, then these homeless people will be handed over to my Hancheng County, I don't know what the Xu County Order thinks?"

"The Duke of the Kingdom can save these thousands of lives, it is really their grace, if the Duke of the Kingdom has any send, although the county is in difficulty, but the labor is still enough." Luochuan Xu County couldn't help but be happy.

"Well, let your people keep the 3,000 prisoners of war in custody and clean up the battlefield. In addition, send people again, optimistic about these displaced people, my son will send someone to Hancheng County to send people to pick them up, but before that, it may be delayed for seven or eight days, these days, their food and clothing, I am afraid that there will be a Laoxu County order. I turned around and smiled at Xu Xianling.

"That's no problem, thank you Guogong for solving this big problem for Luochuan County." Xu Xian Ling was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and gave a deep salute to his son, and then ordered the accompanying officials.

"Just cleaning the battlefield, presumably, the income they get is no less than tens of thousands of stones, grain and grass, and some cattle and horses, not to mention raising these people for seven or eight days, even if they are raised for three or five months, it is no problem." Han Shige, who had never uncovered the mask on his face, said in a sullen voice.

"It doesn't matter, after all, this Luochuan County has suffered a lot of losses after this catastrophe, and this Xu County Commander can be regarded as an official who loves the people, and he will not swallow these grains, cattle and horses alone." I turned around and explained to Han Shige, who was like a tin can. "The important thing is that I would love to slaughter these beasts of the 3,000 prisoners of war, but I don't want my soldiers to become cold-blooded killers because of their personal anger."

After a pause, I said, "They are soldiers, not officers of the Criminal Department, and on the battlefield, they need to be ruthless, but not at other times. ”

Han Shige looked at me, as if he didn't quite understand the meaning of my words, but he didn't ask, but only thought about it with understanding.

Our losses were very light, 27 killed and more than 100 wounded, but with less than 3,000 men and 30,000 thieves, this record seems to be very good, but in my eyes, it doesn't count at all

Think about the Tang Dynasty in the future, it is often a small victory over more, with thousands of victories in countless cases, and there are many such examples of war with nomads, such as the Turks, and we are excited to be like this just by fighting some ordinary people, and when we see such examples in the future, I am afraid that we will definitely blush when the time comes.

But the problem is that those soldiers are extremely excited, as if they have just defeated the most powerful opponent in the world, which makes Ben Gongzi a little dissatisfied, but there is no need for me to come out, those captains and chiefs have stood up and severely criticized this kind of slack thinking.

“… These enemies are just a bunch of ordinary people who don't even know how to use weapons, and if you defeat such people, is it worth your joy and pride? Don't forget, under Wujiao City, that is the elite of Zhu Cang's beast. "One of the captains educated the first ten militiamen very harshly, well, these people were all disgraced, but no one dared to jump out and squeak.

If nothing else, just because this captain is the captain, not only because he is my subordinate, but more importantly, his training performance is the best in the team, and he not only followed my father to participate in battles, but in this previous battle, he has frequently made contributions.

Therefore, such a brave and fearless captain can not only play a leading role in the good deeds, but also be able to suppress the heresies of those soldiers, well, that's probably what it means anyway. Hearing this, my son also bowed his head frequently, yes, it is a team composed of some top-notch gangsters, that is, second-rate underworld hooligans, not to mention armor, and even weapons are not enough, defeating such a team, there is really nothing to be proud of.

"It makes sense, and there is something to say." Wei Yunqi couldn't help but nod with some emotion. This made Ben Gongzi a little complacent, it seems that although the political ideology has not kept up, the cultural class and the military course still play a certain role.
