Chapter 662: Lonely Courage
The team is still sneaking in the dark.
According to the system of the Han army, if there are light and dark double posts here, it means that there will be patrols cruising within the first two miles, so Tai Shici and they are more careful.
But there were accidents.
Suddenly, an unexpected voice came from the darkness:
"Which of you are on your team?"
Tai Shi Ci was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, letting the Northern warriors in the team speak out.
A wanderer from the house of the little samurai in Daidi said unhurriedly:
"We're from the front team, and we've just come over from patrol."
The other side was silent for a while, and suddenly asked:
"Frost and cold weather and north home."
Tai Shi Ci and these people immediately realized that the patrol on the opposite side was fighting the military horn, how could they know the night horn?
So, Tai Shi Ci made a decision, and the halberd in his hand was thrown in the direction of the sound, followed by a miserable scream.
When the other You Yi saw Tai Shi Ci making a move, they threw the short soldiers in their hands over, and screamed again and again for a while.
At this moment, the traces could no longer be hidden, so Tai Shici and the others simply killed them with great fanfare.
These people were already the elite of the army, and they were hit by them again, so a moment later, this patrol team was killed by Tai Shici.
Even in order to grab time, they didn't have time to capture the mouth.
Unable to clean up, Tai Shici and the others continued to run wildly towards the south. If they want to find out the truth of Lu Bujun, they have to arrest a big man, and these Karami are useless.
With the screams repeating here, the nearby patrol team immediately blew up the pot and ran over with torches.
This time, Tai Shi Ci and they met one head-on, but before they could ask from the other side, Tai Shi Ci shouted angrily:
"Frost and cold weather and north home."
The opposite side did not dare to hesitate, and was busy responding:
"Report to the Junjun Grace Family."
Seeing the right number on the other side, they hurriedly walked over with torches to inquire about the situation, but when they illuminated the front, they were terrified, just because these "friendly troops" in front of them were each holding crossbow arrows, and the cold light was cold.
The general of this patrol team was about to speak, when the arrows on the opposite side hit the torrential rain, and between breaths, all the patrols died under the arrows of Tai Shici and others.
In the previous wave, because of the suddenness, they didn't have time to take the bow and crossbow, so they could only throw the short soldiers in their hands. And this time, with sufficient preparation, I was able to calmly shoot arrows.
Before he died, the opposing team did not understand why the friendly forces would attack him.
Tai Shi Ci collected the heads of this group of people and continued to move forward.
After taking out the team, the camp is already close at hand.
By the time they arrived at the camp, the front of the entire camp was as bright as daylight because of the wailing from the periphery, and everywhere there were shouts of officers and soldiers of all ranks.
In fact, to this extent, Tai Shici's mission to capture life actually failed.
But who is Tai Shici? It is the existence of Liaodong cavalry who dares to ride alone to assassinate 100 people.
Since there are no conditions, then create conditions as well.
So, Tai Shi Ci whispered to the warrior of the north on the side, and then the warrior shouted in the local dialect of Shuofang:
"The sheds in the mountains came out to forage for food, and we bumped into them, and they were all cut down."
When the upstairs military officer heard this, his heart relaxed, and then he scolded:
"Which of you don't know the most taboo movement at night? If you are an old brother of our Shuofang, you will die. β
After saying this, the military officer left a sentence:
"If you don't open the door at night, you'll deal with it outside for the night."
When he was done, he was going down.
The warriors below were about to speak when they heard the great urgency, but they were dragged by Tai Shici.
In this way, with the departure of the military officials at the gate of the building, although there were still many people gathered outside the camp gate, they were no longer as nervous as they were just now.
After a while, Tai Shi Ci saw that the sergeant of Bingzhou behind the fence was warming up around the bonfire, and thought of a way.
He whispered to one of the scruffy officials within:
"Dude, it's clammy and cold at night, our group of people just finished killing people, sweating, if we freeze again, maybe something will happen. We lost the flint again, and asked my brother to send us some firewood? β
The sloppy sergeant listened to Tai Shici's accent, raised his eyelids, and replied:
"Brother is from Qingzhou? This is rare on our side of the party. β
Tai Shi Ci didn't panic, he was actually prepared.
Just when the Loumen soldier spoke, he keenly received a piece of news, that is, this person was called an old brother to the person who spoke "Shuo Fang dialect", what does this mean?
It shows that there must be a large number of non-northern sergeants in LΓΌ Bu's army. This phenomenon is not unexpected, with the information obtained by Tai Shi Ci before, when Lu Bu broke through from Jiexiu that day, he brought at most about 1,000 Bingzhou cavalry.
But looking at the scale of this camp now, it is obviously not something that a Bingzhou cavalry can use, so Lu Bu must have recruited a large number of people in Tunliu.
This can also be verified from the previous two patrol teams.
Although Tai Shi Ci's side had the advantage of sneak attacks, being annihilated so quickly also showed that the strength of these patrols was not strong.
And the night patrol is not said to be elite, but it is also carefully selected, so the performance of the opposite side is not worthy of the strength of the border army.
And sure enough, when the sloppy military official replied, he didn't speak the northern dialect, but also the words of the plains.
It's a coincidence, and I've met a fellow countryman. Now, Tai Shi Ci has the bottom.
He laughed and said:
"No, we and a few others originally chose big trees for the nobles, and I heard that the big trees here in Taihang are good, so we came to explore the way. When I went back, I didn't want the car to be empty, so I wanted to go to the party to see if there was anything to take back and sell. But who knows, when I met the husband, he not only charged a few of us into the army, but also robbed our big car. Hey, it's been a really hard time. β
I don't know which sentence speaks to the heart of the sloppy official, but I see that the person has a heart:
"Yes, in this world, our little people are really too difficult."
With this stubble, the sergeant also knew that it was not good not to help, but he looked at the blood-stained heads, and then stopped talking.
Tai Shici also mixed in the Han army, how could he not understand what that person meant?
He was embarrassed and whispered:
"We are just the master of our own team, we have five here, and we are familiar with the robes, and we don't let the brothers work in vain, so we will send two to the brothers."
The sloppy sergeant saw that this man was also generous, so he nodded, and retreated without speaking.
After that, there was no movement for half a day.
You Yi is an elite, but You Yi is also strong and weak, and those who can enter the Chinese Protector Army are all strong players, so although there is no movement inside, there is no need for too Shi Ci to order, everyone behaves naturally.
At this time, there was a squeak, and the closed camp gate really opened.
Then I saw the sloppy soldier coming over with a few men carrying a stack of firewood, and listened to the man say:
"We are all Qingzhou people, and it is fate to meet here, so we should take care of each other."
When he walked in front of Tai Shici, he saw the size of this person clearly, and sighed:
"This is really good material for being a soldier, no wonder you want to fill him into the army?"
Just as the old soldier was about to put down the firewood, a cold light was on his neck, and then he heard his fellow laugh:
"Fellow, my little brother still wants to ask you for a favor, can I borrow it from you."
The old army was clever and hurriedly replied:
"Fellow, as long as you don't borrow someone's head, ours is my brother's, no, it's all my brother's."
At this point, Tai Shici and the crowd looked at each other and smiled.
Look, isn't this an opportunity?
β¦β¦
When the front was noisy, Wei Xu had just been woken up by the soldiers.
Wei Xu's family and Lu Bu's parents are all generations of border soldiers, so the two families will marry.
In the border areas, these warriors are a very special group, because they guard the border wall all year round, and the social relations of these people are very simple and closed.
Also because of the westward shift of the strategic center of gravity of the Han Dynasty, they also ignored the northern border army and could not supply military supplies all year round, which made most of the border troops very poor.
is poor and has no advancement, so the daughters of good families are naturally unwilling to marry into these border army groups, and these people can only marry each other.
This, in turn, makes these groups closer and more closed.
In Lu Bu's army, almost every middle- and lower-level military officer was related to him. It is precisely this kind of internal relationship that Lu Bu can lead the team to break out from Jiexiu, otherwise it will be scattered on the road.
But while it brings cohesion to the army, it also makes the army xenophobic.
Among Lu Bu's athletes, Zhang Liao and Hao Meng are the outermost of them, because one of them is from Yanmen and the other is from Hanoi, both of whom are from the mainland, and the backbone of Lu Bu's group is not all the way.
So don't look at Zhang Liao as a martial arts general second only to Lu Bu in the army, but there are no more than 100 veterans in the army.
But what about Wei Xu? The number of soldiers alone has exceeded 100 people, and he even commands an army of 3,000 people every day.
Previously, when Lu Bu led the army to attack Zhao Yun in the north, it was Wei Xu who stayed behind.
Not long ago, Lu Bu returned victoriously, not only brought back a large amount of grain and straw and distributed it to the Zhongbei warriors, but also gave Wei Xu a batch separately to reward him for his steadfastness.
Wei Xu is happy, this can enjoy the spoils without going on the expedition, isn't this the best job? So I drank a little more tonight.
At this moment, he was still a little unhappy when he was woken up by the soldiers.
But when he heard the commotion in front of him, Wei Xu didn't scold, but asked the soldiers to help him put on his armor, and then asked the big tent to be lifted so that the soldiers under the curtain could see him.
Wei Xuneng didn't just rely on nepotism to get mixed up until now, and Lu Bu was not a big man, they were all a group of fighting men, and the real mediocrity had already died on the battlefield.
As a fierce general who fought from the front line, he had thought about the defense of the camp.
Generally speaking, the layout of the large camp is mostly a square camp, which is actually placed in the city to build a regular camp in the field, and then the main force of the Chinese army is in the center, and then the battalions are scattered layer by layer.
However, the geography of the tunliu area is complicated, and it is flat and narrow enough to accommodate a battalion, so Wei Xu came up with an ingenious plum blossom battalion.
It is to separate the battalions in the key places, and then expand the military road between each other to facilitate assistance, and he takes the Chinese army soldiers to live in the center, relying on the command to dispatch the battalions.
So now that the camp in front of him is starting to make noise, Wei Xu thinks that it must not be a large force of enemy troops, because there are various battalions defending on the main road, and they are all equipped with beacon towers.
And since it is a small group of enemy troops infiltrating, then Wei Xu only needs to calm down.
In normal times, there will be a curtain around the outside of his military tent, which can not only protect his tracks, but also add to the prestige of the main general.
But in order to show the concentration and the style of the general, Wei Xu asked people to lift all the curtains, and also held torches to illuminate the big tent of the Chinese army.
After Wei Xu's operation, the nearby Bingzhou veterans were relieved, or continued to sleep, or got up to wipe the knives.
Soon, a military official from the front camp brought the situation, it turned out that a group of shanties in the mountains ran down the mountain to look for food and were bumped into by the patrols, so they came to the front camp in shock.
Wei Xu, who had a bottom in his heart, sat upright for a while, but in the end, he drank too much, which would be a little unbearable. He instructed his soldiers not to disturb him again.
But just as Wei Xu was leaning on the wooden couch, someone from outside came to report at this time, and it was the doorman of the front building.
Wei Xu pressed to endure his anger, and he didn't wear any armor, and then turned out from behind the screen, and after seeing the scene in front of him, his anger finally exploded, and he pointed to the doorman of the building and scolded:
"Old Wei, don't you think that you are related to us, you are like this? I'm telling you, we don't talk about this in the state army. Do you know what kind of crime you are guilty of taking these people to break into the Chinese army's tent at night? It's ......"
Speaking of this, Wei Xu finally couldn't see that something was wrong, the relative who had the same surname as himself and didn't know how far away was pale, and a white-faced warrior next to him was smiling when he spoke, the situation was not good.
Wei Xu paused for a moment and began to speak again, but his footsteps suddenly rushed to the case, ready to draw his own ring knife.
This set of small combos is still very silky, but unfortunately it is not enough in Tai Shici's eyes. When Wei Xu moved, Tai Shi Ci sprinted in a row, jumped, and kicked Wei Xu's chest with one kick.
Wei Xu fell on the case, not only smashed the case, but was also kicked a little by this kick.
But the ring-headed knife on the desk also fell into Wei Xu's hand, he tried to hold his breath to relieve the pain, and then took the ring-headed knife in his hand and slashed the white-faced warrior.
Tai Shi Ci was also shocked, because of the problem of perspective, he didn't see that Wei Xu had already got the knife, and everyone else stepped forward to capture Wei Xu, but at this moment, when he saw the knife slashing over, he could only block the iron arm in his hand.
The sound of gold and iron, mixed with a trace of sparks, Wei Xu's counterattack was finally blocked by Tai Shici.
And over there, the Gaobai warrior who came in with Tai Shici saw Wei Xu's counterattack, and immediately drew out his arrow and shot it.
Good Wei Xu, at such a close distance, with his feet firmly planted on the ground, his waist sank, and he drew a circle with his upper body and head, and the general dodged this arrow.
The tall white warrior is called Yuwen Potou, it is the young marshal of the Xianbei Yuwen clan, and now the rampage general, Yuwen En.
Yu Wenen had never seen anyone who could dodge arrows like this, and he was shocked by Wei Xu's martial arts at that time.
But Tai Shi Ci was not stunned, but grabbed this gap, rushed to Wei Xu's side with a short body, and then wrapped his arms around his waist, pulled out, and knocked Wei Xu's whole person to the ground.
When Tai Shi Ci got up, he saw Wei Xu closing his eyes and falling to the ground, he hurriedly stepped forward and touched his snort, his hand trembled, and he scolded:
"Hot girl, this is dead?"
Yu Wenen was also stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned Wei Xu over, just to see that his head had been pulled down, and he couldn't die anymore.
Tai Shi Ci was a little angry, and pointed to the stunned gatekeeper:
"Without this person, take this person away!"
After thinking about it, he instructed Yu Wenen again:
"If this person is dead, you can carry it with you, and you can always get something out."
Yu Wenen nodded, and then picked up Wei Xu's body and carried it on his shoulder.
When Tai Shi Citi pulled the doorman surnamed Wei out of the tent, the rest of You Yi leaned over.
Behind them, a group of Wei Xu's soldiers were wiped off their necks and thrown behind the curtain.
In the end, Tai Shici couldn't be angry in the end, and said ruthlessly:
"A fire burned this."
Not long after Tai Shici and them left the camp, the delayed line of fire ignited the fire oil on the big tent.
As a result, not only this camp, but also other places in the vicinity saw the flames rushing to the sky.
At this time, the wanderers had already gone away.
