readx;?
More than 50 Ningnan cavalry, in Shangguanxiu and more than a dozen Feng troops counterattacked, none of them ran away and were killed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info looked around at the corpses all over the ground, Shangguan Xiu wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead, and sat on the ground panting.
The injuries on his body were far from healing, and after the fierce battle just now, he felt that several wounds that had already scarred had broken open again.
More than a dozen Feng soldiers looked at the corpses of Ningnan soldiers on the ground, people couldn't believe their eyes, they were only a dozen people, and they were able to kill more than fifty cavalrymen, which was incredible, of course, everyone also understood in their hearts that this was not their own credit.
People walked over to Shangguan Xiu in unison, and when they approached him, they bowed their hands and said, "Thank you for the strong man's help, I don't know the strong man's name?"
Shangguan Xiu waved his hand to everyone and said, "You don't have to be polite, I, like you, am also a wind army." ā
"You...... Which regiment are you from?" the people looked at Shangguan Xiu, who was dressed in civilian clothes, in surprise.
"Zhenjun Army. ā
"Didn't the Zhenjun army defeat in Ningnan......? Why did you get to Ningjun?" asked a wind soldier in surprise.
Shangguan Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "I fled here from Ningnan after the defeat. ā
"No wonder you're so powerful, I've heard that the brothers of the Zhenjun Army are all good at recruiting and fighting!" another wind soldier gave a thumbs up. Ferry to see the new festival
A veteran who had seen the world shook his head again and again, no matter how powerful the soldier was, it was impossible for him to kill dozens of cavalrymen by himself, and he said in a firm tone: "You must be a sharp soldier in the Zhenjun army!"
When he was fighting just now, Shangguan Xiu didn't use Lingwu, and with his skills, it was normal for veterans to misunderstand him as a sharp soldier in the army.
Shangguan Xiu smiled, did not answer their questions, and asked, "Which regiment are you from?"
"The First Corps of the Ningjun Army. The veteran said: "The Central Army was defeated and withdrew from Ningjun, and now it is still in Ningjun, and only our Ningjun Army is left who insists on fighting." ā
It turned out that they were all brothers of some local army. Shangguan Xiu asked, "Where are you going now?"
"Go find the lost brothers!" the veteran sighed and said, "Two days ago, we encountered a Ningnan army, and as a result, the commander of the regiment was killed in battle, and the brothers in front were also scattered. ā
"Where are you going to find your lost brothers?"
"Binchuan Town. We came out of Binchuan Town, and now we have been dispersed, so naturally we will return to Binchuan Town to converge. ā
Shangguan Xiu didn't know where Binchuan Town was, and he didn't know much about Ning County. The veteran replied, "Brother, are you going to go back to Zhenjun?"
"Yes. ā
"Where to go to Zhenjun, just passing by Binchuan Town, let's stop by the way, you can go with us!"
Shangguan Xiu thought about it, nodded, and said, "It's okay." ā
Hearing that he was willing to walk with him, the wind army was all overjoyed, with such a sharp soldier, his combat effectiveness can be raised to a higher level, and if he encounters a small-scale Ningnan soldier, he will no longer have to hide.
Shangguan Xiu suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, I asked you about something." "What's the matter?"
"In Ningnan, I heard about His Majesty...... Did you die in battle on the Amdo Plain?" there were rumors everywhere in Ningnan that Tang Ling was dead, and Shangguan Xiu didn't know if the news was true or not, and now he was anxious to find out about it.
His words made the faces of the Feng Jun present change. The veteran hurriedly raised his fingers and made a silent gesture. He said in a low voice: "Brother, Your Majesty is now in Mojun, and he has not died in battle at all, you are a great treacherous crime to say this!"
Shangguan Xiu was taken aback at first, and then his eyes lit up, Tang Ling did not die in Ningnan, she was now in Mo County, this was the only good news he had heard in more than a month.
As long as Tang Ling does not die, the court of the Wind Country will not be chaotic, and if the court is not chaotic, the Wind Country will still have the capital to resist the Ningnan army, and there will be the possibility of turning defeat into victory.
One of the wind soldiers snorted and said indignantly: "Of course the people of Ningnan hope that Your Majesty will die in battle, so that they can destroy our Wind Country in one go. ā
The veteran changed his words and asked, "Brother, we don't know your name yet?"
Shangguan Xiu smiled and said, "You can call me Ah Xiu." ā
The veteran nodded, and said to the surrounding Feng army: "Search the corpses of the Ningnan people, gather the loot, we have to get out of here as soon as possible!"
The wind soldiers responded one after another, and began to search the corpses on the ground one by one. Just as everyone was inspecting the corpse, one of the wind soldiers suddenly lifted a leather bag and said loudly, "I found a lot of jewelry!"
The surrounding wind army gathered around him, and threw his skin to the ground, spilling out gold and silver jewels all over the ground. Shangguan Xiu stepped forward and looked down, there were really a lot of gold, silver and jewelry on the ground, and there were many types, obviously, these were all snatched by Ning Nanbing.
A young wind soldier picked up a bead the size of a quail egg from the ground and said in surprise, "What a big pearl!"
The veteran snatched it up, took it in his hand and carefully identified it, and said, "This is not a pearl, but a pearl of the night." ā
"Huh......? "The Night Pearl is a treasure of great value, and most of the wind soldiers have only heard of its name and have never seen it with their own eyes, so people rushed over and looked intently at the beads in the hands of the veterans.
The veteran glanced at the crowd, squeezed out of the crowd, walked up to Shangguan Xiu, and said, "Ah Xiu, this is for you." ā
Shangguan Xiu shook his head slowly, waved his hand and said, "It's better for you to keep it." "He had never been a money-grubber, and he had little interest in gold, silver, and jewelry.
I didn't expect him to want it, the veteran was stunned at first, and when he saw Shangguan Xiu, he didn't even look at Ye Mingzhu, knowing that he was not pretending, he had a straight face and said: "Ah Xiu, most of these Ningnan soldiers were killed by you, and the things on them are naturally your trophies." As he spoke, he forced the Night Pearl into Shangguan Xiu's hand and reminded: "This is the Night Pearl, such a big one, it is priceless, you can not want anything else, but you must accept this!"
Shangguan Xiu smiled bitterly in his heart, looked down at the night pearl in his hand, and held it tightly in his palm, what kind of face did he have to ask for any loot, this sounded ironic.
couldn't bear to refuse the veteran's kindness, Shangguan Xiu still took the night pearl into his arms. Then, everyone received the war horses left by the Ningnan soldiers, and the surplus war horses were killed on the spot.
Binchuan Town is a small town located in the east of Ning County, when Shangguan Xiu and his party arrived here, the town has gathered thousands of Feng troops, led by the general of the First Corps of the Ning County Army, named Shi Kuan.
When a battle came, a corps of tens of thousands of people was beaten to the strength of only one battalion, which can be described as a complete defeat. Knowing that his soldiers had brought back a sharp soldier of the Zhenjun Army, Shi Kuan personally met with Shangguan Xiu.
In a large mansion in the middle of the town, Shangguan Xiu saw Shi Kuan, who was wounded in multiple places and had bandages on his head, arms and thighs. While Shangguan Xiu was looking at Shi Kuan, Shi Kuan was also looking at him.
After looking at Shangguan Xiu from head to toe twice, he asked, "You belong to the Zhenjun Army?"
"Yes. Shangguan Xiu nodded.
"Do you have a certificate, show me the military card!" Shi Kuan stretched out his hand to Shangguan Xiu.
Shangguan Xiu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I don't have a military badge on me, and my military badge was knocked off when I fought in Ningnan. "Without a military license, how can I believe that you are the brother of the Zhenjun Army?"
He really stopped Shangguan Xiu when he said this, he really couldn't come up with anything to prove that he was a member of the Zhenjun Army. "Without evidence, I can even say that you are a fine work sent by the people of Ningnan!"
"In order to send a meticulous work, the Ningnan people are willing to lose dozens of cavalry, which is enough blood. Shangguan Xiu scoffed at Shi Kuan's words.
His voice was not loud, but it was enough for Shi Kuan to hear clearly, his face sank, and he asked, "What did you say?"
"Big ...... My lord, the reason why we were able to kill the more than 50 cavalrymen of the Ningnan Army who were chasing us halfway was all due to the help of Ah Xiu, and if there was no Ah Xiu, we would ...... We won't be able to come back. The veteran, who was traveling with Shangguan Xiu, hurriedly explained.
"You killed more than fifty cavalrymen?"
"Yes, my lord, this is the military badge we have captured!" As he spoke, the veteran took out a large handful of military badges from his bosom and handed them to Shi Kuan. The latter took it, looked at it roughly, and then glanced at Shangguan Xiu again, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "You can be temporarily incorporated into a battalion!"
It sounded like the other party was going to take him in, Shangguan Xiu couldn't cry or laugh, he reminded: "Lord Shi, you are subordinate to the Zhenjun Army, and now you want to go back to Zhenjun!"
"Is there a war going on in Eye-Jung-gun?"
"This ...... It doesn't seem to be. ā
"Then what are you going to do back to Zhenjun? The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, now that Ningjun has fallen, the people of Ningnan are rampant and abusive, and the people of Ningjun are struggling to make a living, now you are embarrassed to tell me that you want to go back to Zhenjun, you coward deserter!" Shi Kuan reprimanded in a deep voice.
The veteran grinned secretly, he consciously looked at Shangguan Xiu, thinking that he would be furious, after all, the Ningjun Army and the Zhenjun Army were two local military systems, and they did not interfere with each other, and Shi Kuan, the partial general of the Ningjun Army, could not control the head of the Zhenjun Army. Unexpectedly, Shangguan Xiu's face turned red, he stood with his head down, and he didn't say a word when he was reprimanded.
Seeing that he seemed to be conscious of his mistakes, Shi Kuan raised his arm and was about to speak, when a soldier hurriedly ran in from outside and shouted in a panic: "Report!
Shi Kuan's face changed with everyone present, and he asked consciously, "How many people are there in the Ningnan Army?"
"Probably...... About two or three thousand!" stammered the messenger.
Two or three thousand people? Shi Kuan and the others of the Ningjun army gasped. A battalion lieutenant frowned and said, "My lord, there are many soldiers in Ningnan, and we only have more than a thousand brothers, and we are definitely not their opponents, or ...... Let's stay out of the way and retreat first!"
