Chapter 99: A War Without the Smoke of Gunpowder
In a hidden valley, Ye Wuchen led the whole battalion of soldiers to quietly wait for the news of the light cavalry, and they all stared at the distance expectantly. [Ran^Text^Library] []
Finally, after a long wait, a cavalry figure appeared in the distance and galloped towards them, and soon came to them.
The little soldier turned over and dismounted and ran to Ye Wuchen's body and knelt down on one knee and said: "How can you general, the brothers have succeeded, and now the entire Tiger Regiment has completely lost its combat effectiveness and is under our control. ”
"Okay, the whole army obeys the order, hurry forward, and follow me to capture the Tiger Regiment alive!"
"Capture the Tigers alive!"
"Capture the Tigers alive!"
"Capture the Tigers alive!"
The officers and men shouted excitedly, and more than 5,000 people in the battalion strode towards the Tiger Regiment's station. The whole journey took half an hour, but all the soldiers were in a state of excitement, and they ran to their destination in a quarter of an hour. By the time they arrived, the entire garrison had been completely controlled by a hundred light cavalry, and all the enemy generals had been gathered together and tied up.
The whole barracks was full of mourning, and all the soldiers were impermanent and depressed. Ye Wuchen hurriedly ordered Huang Hua and several other column commanders to lead 3,000 soldiers to guard the side of the rear of the military camp leading to the White Tiger Army. The other soldiers began to pour a yellow liquid into the food trough of the war horses, urging the listless war horses to come forward and eat.
Another 2,000 soldiers began to drive the enemy soldiers out of the camp and towards the Eastern Coalition garrison. After most of the busy day, all the soldiers of the Tiger Regiment were taken away, and those war horses were completely rejuvenated, all the soldiers of the Giant Sword Battalion got on their horses, and drove the remaining war horses back to the barracks, and before they knew it, a Tiger Regiment of 20,000 horses quietly disappeared.
All of this is the result of the calculation of the night without dust, and there must be no mistake in any of them. In particular, if the light cavalry is sent to intercept the heralds of the White Tiger Army and the Tiger Regiment, if they are broken out by a herald, they will startle the grass and snakes to make the Tiger Regiment more vigilant, so that it will be difficult for the soldiers who go to the medicine to succeed.
Fortunately, no major war has started between their countries until now, and the guards of the various legions are a little lax, and the vigilance is also plagued by the problem of food and grass, which has dropped a lot.
A lot of time was wasted on the way back to the barracks, mainly because the soldiers in those places had no energy, and they were all weak and powerless, as long as the guards did not pay attention, there would be many people who lay down and were unwilling to get up.
At this time, all the soldiers of the Greatsword Battalion knew how their battalion commander outwitted the enemy army. Now that I think about it, they still laughed for a while, it wasn't a big deal, and it was a pretty bad move. The key to the success of this 'sneak attack' was the Black Qian Bean, a legume crop that was abundant in their Eastern Territory and rare in other parts of the Thousand Yuan Continent.
Hei Qiandou is no stranger to them, the soldiers of the Eastern Coalition Army.
For those who have been devastated by war for thousands of years, any life-sustaining food is a lifesaver, as is the case with the Black Bean, a specialty of the Middle East Coalition. This legume plant can be used as a food for the stomach if it is dried and dried after the beans are ripe.
And it also has this other effect, that is, after soaking the beans in water of golden thorn grass for three days, the beans become a chronic poison that can make people gradually lose their physical strength after use, this poison does not make people lose their lives, and after drinking the water soaked in the leaves of a mulberry tree, it can be detoxified.
It was with this poison that Ye Wuchen used this poison to take down the Tiger Regiment without blood. Although the White Tiger Empire is adjacent to the Eastern Alliance, they don't know much about this plant, and they only inject the water concocted by the golden thorn grass and black beans into their drinking water sources, so they are calculated in vain.
At this time, Long Ruide kept walking back and forth in the military tent, looking very impatient. In fact, not only is he now in the barracks from top to bottom, every soldier is worried about his heart, but there are also some people who are happy in their hearts.
Nine and a half days have passed since the ten-day appointment, and the Giant Sword Battalion has not even sent back the slightest news during this time, and some people are even spreading rumors, saying that Ye Wuchen has surrendered to the enemy with five thousand soldiers, and some say that they have been annihilated by the Tiger Regiment after giving money, in short, now there are many people in the military camp who say that although many people have been executed by military law, but how can this mouth be completely blocked?
"Hey, the night is dustless, the night is dustless, you kid is putting me on fire, I really don't know which of the old man's warps is broken, and he believes you stinky boy so easily? I hope you don't let me down."
Long Ruide looked at the camp gate in the distance through the screen window and muttered to himself. There was a bloodshot in his eyes, and he could see that he was not doing well these days. is also under such huge pressure, and being able to live well can only mean that he has no heart and lungs.
"Newspaper"
Suddenly, a dusty sentry outside the camp gate ran back quickly, still shouting loudly, until he ran into the camp and saw Long Ruide, he was panting and shouting loudly, and his whole face was full of joy.
"Good news, Huhu Longshuai, good news, General Ye led a battalion of 5,000 giant swords, pressed 20,000 prisoners, and drove more than 20,000 war horses back."
"What?"
There was an uproar in the barracks, and everyone was stunned by the news.
"But really? Where are they now?"
Long Ruide was startled at first, and then turned to joy, and grabbed the sentry's shoulders with both hands and asked loudly, only to grab the soldier with a cracked tooth, but he still said excitedly.
"It's true, the little one saw with his own eyes, the captives were black and oppressive, and the brothers of the Giant Sword Battalion were all riding war horses, and those war horses that were not ridden were loaded with cavalry equipment and weapons and supplies, and now they should have walked to the Thunder Lake, which is more than twenty miles away. ”
Long Ruide trembled a little with excitement, but he still suppressed his intense joy and turned to shout loudly to the equally surprised crowd.
"All the officers and soldiers are assembled in the school field outside the camp gate, the kamikaze camp and the trap camp will follow me to respond, and Hu Junshi will sit in the army on my behalf and wait for our heroes to return to the camp in triumph!"
"Yes, the last general commands!"
"Yes!"
The marshal went with confidence, and ordered the fire head battalion to bury the pot and cook rice, and prepare a celebration banquet for the soldiers. Hu Yang replied with a smile on his face.
After a while, 10,000 soldiers and horses were gone, and every soldier who could go to meet them was very excited. The soldiers advocate force, and when they heard that the 5,000 Giant Sword Battalion had captured all the 20,000 Iron Cavalry without any loss, they had already begun to worship all the soldiers of the Giant Sword Battalion.
And Ye Wuchen's name once again resounded throughout the military camp, and this time the sensational effect was even more unprecedented, and his prestige had reached its peak for a while, and even surpassed the military god Huang Liang.
At this time, all the soldiers of the Giant Sword Battalion did not know that they had become stars in the entire Eastern Alliance Army. They were now all smiling and driving away the captives, once upon a time thought that one day they could drive the famous Tiger Regiment like this? All this came from their new battalion commander, and all the soldiers unconsciously looked at the not very strong figure along the way, and their hearts were full of reverence and pride.
As for Huang Hua and Lei Tianhu, not to mention the column commanders, especially Lei Tianhu, who actually began to learn every move of the night without dust. They always looked preoccupied when they saw that Ye Wuchen was worried, so Lei Tianhu frowned and began to pretend to be deep, but he was holding back discomfort in his heart. Because he didn't know what he was going to think, he could only hold back the urge to hook up with someone.
"Hey, Brother Lei, what's wrong? Why didn't you talk all the way? This doesn't look like you?" Column Commander Cui Chong rode on his horse and stretched out his hand to pull down the Lei Tianhu who was pretending to be deep.
Lei Tianhu didn't speak, but glared at him fiercely.
Cui Chong's heart was on fire all of a sudden, although his martial arts were not as powerful as Lei Tianhu, but this violent temper did not lose him at all, but he was relatively tactful, so he generally did not make any trouble.
"What do you want to say, who do you scare with a dog's eyes? Who do you think you are? Just take a pound of brains and nine taels of water, what kind of big-tailed wolf are you?" Cui Chong scolded without hitting a single place.
Now Lei Tianhu can't pretend anymore, he has never lost a quarrel with him Cui Chong in the past, and he doesn't want to pretend to be the battalion commander today, but he was scolded so much, and he didn't fight back, and others thought they were afraid of him.
"Fuck, Cui Zhu, your kid's skin is itchy again, isn't it? Lao Tzu doesn't recruit you, I can't imagine that you still dare to find a beating?" It turns out that Lei Tianhu himself can't scold Cui Chong, so every time he scolds the fight, it will eventually evolve into fists and feet, and Cui Chong, who takes advantage of his mouth, is always beaten by the angry Lei Tianhu with a blue nose and swollen face, but this kid is also a stubborn donkey, every time he is beaten, he is scolded, he doesn't admit defeat at all, and he always likes to provoke wars, so people laugh at him and call him 'Slut Cui Pig', he doesn't care, he just likes to quarrel with Lei Tianhu.
Some of the soldiers who followed them began to coax, they had long been surprised, every time the two of them started a battle, these little soldiers always came together in front of them to coax the seedlings, and even some soldiers began to take out the money to sit in the village to gamble, for this night Wuchen every time is also a smile, as long as they do not do not cause chaos, he will remain silent soldiers, leisure can have a little fun should also be relaxed and relax the spirit of tension, and it is also conducive to the harmony between the will be
