Chapter 518: Morning Happiness, Twilight Death (1)
The dawn is approaching.
In the southeast of the vast Taibai Mountains, an army of about 4,000 men marched rapidly eastward.
The banners of this army are extremely mixed, there are Taibai, Youdu Hou, Wuci, Huwei and other banners, as well as Sun, Mo, Liu, Chen and other banners, the five colors are mixed, the equipment is different, at first glance, it gives people a sense of chaos.
Zooming in closely, the whole army was disheveled and embarrassed, and some of the soldiers' armor had been thrown somewhere; The weapons are incomplete, and the soldiers with broken swords can be seen everywhere, and some soldiers do not even have weapons in their hands.
All the soldiers marched in a very scattered manner, and the army was full of wounds and diseases, and at any moment the soldiers fell behind and never got up again.
It is clear that this is a remnant of the army.
Fortunately, the mental state of the soldiers was still quite high, and the whole army was silent, just marching quickly in a muffled voice.
This army, under the heavy encirclement of the Great Qin Iron Cavalry, fought out a bloody way to escape the Eastern Expeditionary Rebel Army.
Well, the unworthy name of the Eastern Expedition to the Rebel Army.
.......
Just as the rebel army was rapidly moving westward, there was a slight imperceptible loosening in the snowdrift three hundred zhang away from this army, and a human head quietly poked out of the snowdrift.
This person was dressed in black, covered with a black scarf, and his eyes were as murderous as knives, and he watched this defeated army slowly move westward with great calmness, and his legs exerted force, like a rabbit, flying eastward.
At a gallop, he came to a dead tree covered with snow, knocked on the trunk a few times, and suddenly, a snowdrift behind the tree suddenly rose up, and a war horse as white as snow suddenly appeared in front of the man in black.
Looking closely, I saw that the eyes of this white horse were bright, full of determination and decisiveness. The horse's mane flies, like a warrior's banner, hunting in the wind.
The man in black stepped forward and gently touched the horse's mane, jumped on the horse's back, and the horse sped eastward without a command.
This black-clothed man is the spring killer of the Eagle Eye Guard in the Nine Guards of the Great Qin Heavenly Wolf, and he is also an expert in the exploration room, when the Han army was defeated and fled westward, he appeared alone in the vast snow-capped mountains, and his intention to explore the movements of the Han army is self-evident.
Fu Wen was extremely cautious, he was not sure whether the Han army still had Chang Shui Wei monitoring him in the dark, so he ordered the march of the army to slow down, hang far away from the fleeing Han army a hundred miles, and only send the man in black to reconnoiter the enemy.
When the man in black combined with the movements of the Han army and clarified the retreat route of the Han army, he went east to find the main force of the Qin army and report the situation.
Galloping all the way, the white horse is like a white cloud, galloping for more than 50 miles in a moment, seeing that there is still half an hour before the sunset in the West Mountain, the white horse under the crotch of the man in black is already steaming and sweating, in a white snow, like a dragon horse spraying clouds and fog in the sky.
The man in black also had his hair scattered, his face was like a red glow, and his clothes were all soaked.
According to the usual rules of travel, even if it is a good horse, Mu Jin'er must take a moment to rest when he gallops for dozens of miles, otherwise he will have to change horses, but at this time, the black-clothed people are so anxious that they can't wait to put on their wings and fly to the side of the army, but they don't think of stopping to rest.
In the midst of the gallop, the man in black suddenly reined in his horse, and the agile white horse let out a long neigh, and suddenly the person stood up and swirled in place, but it turned back non-stop and stopped in place.
The man in black dismounted, patted the horse's buttocks, and said to himself, "Horse, do you want to rest?"
Red Wind Horse plowed the ground with his front hooves, snorted, hissed at the man in black, and approached the man in black.
The man in black laughed, jumped on his horse, and said in a loud voice, "Good horses are really righteous people. Let's go!"
With a shake of the horse's reins and a light knock on his feet, the white horse neighed, stretched out its four hooves, and flew out like a bolt of lightning!
In half an hour, the white horse flew about 100 miles to the foot of a snow-capped mountain.
A grand military camp loomed, the man in black patted the horse's head with his right hand, the white horse slowed down slightly, and the man in black gathered his strength, jumped up, and flew into the barracks.
Fu Wen sat firmly in the Chinese army, and after the man in black explained the situation to him, Fu Wen stood at the door of the Chinese army's big tent and looked west.
This time, you can't escape!
.......
Under the guidance of the Taibai general Mo Jingchun, the remnants of the army marched slightly west to the south for ten miles, and finally stopped the rapid march after seeing a few military camps that seemed to be uninhabited. c0
Here, is the Taibai Army's Chinese army tent before the expedition, when the expedition, Mo Jingchun not only left the white raccoon dog camp on the main road of Taibai Mountain, but also left about 200 people to take care of the barracks, in order to ensure that the return of the army can be quickly repaired.
At this point, this journey of defeat and escape can be regarded as an end.
After settling the defeated and retreating soldiers, Mo Jingchun tidied up his appearance, went to Liu Huai's military tent, and reported to Liu Huai, "Your Highness, the sentry has come to report continuously, and Great Qin has not sent troops to pursue. The last general has been operating here for many years, the Taibai Army's big tent has sufficient grain and grass, complete equipment, and there are secret posts around the military tent, and many traps are set up, once the enemy army comes to attack, our army can immediately know. Your Highness may rest here for a while, and then make a decision after explaining the situation to Your Majesty."
The crown prince Liu Huai escaped death, and the heart that had been hanging finally let go of three points, he smiled reluctantly, and said, "General Mo is very generous, and he has a curtain on his chest. After the Governor of Pontus returns to Beijing in the near future, he will perform the merits of General Mo."
Mo Jingchun was unhappy in his heart: When the army was defeated, you, Liu Huai, as the governor of the capital, did not think about resolving the crisis and turning things around, but he was bent on leaving, and the prince of a country was so cowardly, it was simply unreasonable!
Mo Jingchun was disgusted in his heart, but his face was as usual, he knew that Liu Huai was definitely a person with a small belly, this kind of person, if he could not be offended, he would not be offended, and if he could have less contact, he would have less contact, he bowed his hand slightly, and he sat down in the seat.
In the military tent, there are still those old faces, Liu Huai sits in the main seat, Huan Wen, Cheng Yu, Li Changhong, Liu Ben and Aunt Lan, who has just met, sit on one side, and Mo Jingchun and Sun Yun sit on the other side.
The crown prince Liu Huai was the first to break the silence, grinning and saying with a slight dissatisfaction, "General Mo, your military ration is old rice, right? There is always a bad taste when you eat it, how can the soldiers have combat effectiveness with this kind of food?"
Liu Huai's words were amazing, and Mo Jingchun was stunned on the spot, not knowing how to answer.
In recent years, although the world is peaceful, but the eastern Taibai army is stationed in the resource-poor Taibai Mountains all over the main roads, it is not easy to obtain supplies, and the soldiers can also go to the mountains to fight the grass valley on weekdays, but after Jiang Ruisheng burned the Taibai beasts, this kind of 'good life' has come to an end, and some of the food is already good, who will pick and choose?
Mo Jingchun's lips moved slightly, and his patience with this wanton and willful Crown Prince who did not know the suffering of the people had reached the limit.
