Chapter 171: Prison Army
Immediately, Tong Guò discussed, and the twenty hundred-person teams that acted as the vanguard were decided, that is, Qin Yi and Nalan Xue.
As for Qin Nan and the others, they didn't come forward, so they weren't among them. No matter what things are good or bad, Qin Nan will not be targeted now, after all, there is Luo Soul as a prison army to support him, Lao Shan wants to deal with him, and he must also weigh whether he can deal with Luo Soul.
The army camped on the spot, buried the pot and cooked the food, and gave the pioneers a good meal, and about two o'clock in the afternoon, the vanguard brigade set off with short-term dry rations, and headed for the complex that the scouts had discovered.
The brigade of 2,000 men marched hastily, and before dark, marched for more than 20 miles, then sat down to eat, rested for a while, and then went on the road overnight, and continued to run forward.
This is what blitzkrieg is all about, especially if you make a detour to carry out a surprise attack, you must not delay time, otherwise you will alarm the enemy army, then you will not be able to talk about blitzkrieg, and you will also fall into passivity.
At this moment, Qin Nan and the others are still in the barracks, and the army has no intention of moving, so in order not to startle the snake, they will not continue to move forward until tomorrow.
General Lao Shan issued an order, set off early tomorrow morning, make food on the second watch, and set off on the fourth watch, and the sky was not yet dawn at that time.
Sure enough, early the next morning, the army packed up and continued to advance forward.
This time, though, it's much faster. There was no rest at noon that day, and he was on the road almost all the time, and in the evening he arrived at the site of the so-called enemy complex.
I saw a group of mountains, the flames soared into the sky, and the sound of weapons colliding and personnel shouting and killing, mixed together, the scene was extremely chaotic, and it seemed that the war was still going on.
However, the distance was too far to see the scenery over there.
Seeing this, Lao Shan immediately ordered a siege, and a brigade of seven or eight thousand people rushed to the aid of the vanguard brigade.
Qin Nan and the others were also in the rush to help, and soon, they found that the mountain road was difficult to walk, and it was extremely dark, and there were traps and other things buried on the road, killing people invisibly.
By the time they arrived, it was already two hours later.
Most of the buildings here are still under construction, apparently still under construction, but unfortunately they are now under siege.
The enemy soldiers were wearing red turbans, ordinary linen clothes, not even armor, all of them were yellow and thin, and they looked like coolies, and it was obvious that their life hiding in the mountains was not easy.
Qin Nan took the lead in rushing in with the Thunder Hell Demon Knife in his hand, at this time, the battle was already white-hot, and the scene was very miserable.
Both sides are very miserable, wearing red turbans, the combat power is not good, although there are many people, but they always can't please them, it can only be said that the imperial court used the way of recruiting troops with the military list played a role.
But I don't know why, the vanguard brigade on this side of the imperial court didn't get much benefit, the number of dead and wounded was very staggering, and the twenty warriors almost became bloody, and the wolves were unbearable.
It's surprising to see such a result.
However, with the arrival of the army, countless martial arts masters joined the battlefield and began to slaughter those thieves, but in just ten minutes, the entire mountain was clean, and only the sound of the imperial court soldiers cleaning the battlefield remained.
General Lao Shan held the battle report in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, so angry that he almost tore up the battle report, and was so frightened that the legs of the soldiers who reported the results of the battle next to him trembled, and he almost knelt down.
The vanguard team raided overnight, encountered a trap on the road, and many people were killed and wounded.
I don't know which daredevil, without stopping to rest and recuperate, rashly rushed forward, alarmed the enemy army, and in this way, it can be regarded as a miserable loss to the entire vanguard brigade.
The number of dead and wounded in each of the centurions' men was more than fifty, and even some of the centurions were wounded, and the situation was simply terrible.
In this case, those centurions not only did not have merit, but were guilty, and the number of dead and wounded was still there, and even his old mountain could not run, which was enough for him to go back to the court to plead guilty.
At this time, Luo Soul sat next to him, his fingers tapping on the armrest of the chair, as if he didn't care about himself.
This is none of his business, he does not participate in military affairs, and he does not charge into battle, what he has to do is to supervise Lao Shan, not let Lao Shan have any business trips, and if he has a business trip, he will record it, and then report it to the imperial court.
"A bunch of waste. ”
Under the oil lamp, Lao Shan scolded fiercely.
"Lord Luo, this is just an accident, it's all to blame on the vanguard brigade on our side, those centurions are not sensible, and they have just made the whole army suffer heavy losses in the first battle. ”
Lao Shan said tentatively to Luo Soul, which meant to let Luo Soul bear with him a little more, and don't record this matter for the time being.
Luo Soul coughed lightly and said, "The method of surprise attack on the enemy army and blitzkrieg seems to have been formulated by General Shan himself, doesn't General Shan have a little responsibility?
Luo Soul showed a skeptical look on his face.
When Lao Shan heard this, he sighed for a while, and said: "Of course, my Lao Shan also has some strategic mistakes, misestimating the enemy's combat strength, and I hope that Luo Dahan will have a lot of Haihan, and in the next battle, I Lao Shan will personally supervise the battle and make some achievements to show the imperial court." ”
Lao Shan said that he would show the results to the imperial court, but in fact, he would do it for Luo Soul and want to make up for his mistakes. It's just that he can't say such things.
Luo Soul stood up, put his hands behind his back, and said: "General Shan, the death or injury of soldiers is a big deal, I hope you don't want to be greedy for merit, let's come step by step." ”
Saying that, Luo Soul went out of the big tent alone, and it seemed that he had gone back to his tent.
"Master Luo walks slowly. ”
Lao Shan said a word, watching Luo Soul walk out of his big tent, and slowly changed his complexion.
"Damn Luo Soul, dare to pose in front of Lao Tzu, I would have murdered you in Dongbo Province if I knew it, I will let you supervise the army, I will let you prison"
Lao Shan grinned, looked out of the curtain, and tore the battle report in his hand to shreds.
In addition, according to statistics, the buildings here have just begun to be built, even the foundations are new, and the army has looted in them, and there is nothing of value, which can be regarded as poor.
It is equivalent to fighting a tough battle in vain, except for capturing a few prisoners of war who don't know anything, nothing is gained, there is only a pile of useless waste wood, which is estimated to not even be worth one-tenth of the loss of the imperial army, which is also one of the reasons why Lao Shan is angry.
The best way to fight a war is to be able to feed the war with war, and rely on the captured property of the enemy along the way, which can be used for military expenses, or personal oil and water. If after the war, you can't get the money, women, and food, then you can't do it.
That night, Qin Yi went to the general's tent overnight, not knowing what to discuss.
That night, the army was stationed in the midst of these unfinished buildings.
The next day, continue to drive deeper into the island.
