Chapter 457: Ten Thousand Enemies
It was an eventful day.
In the camp of the Qi army, the torches were bright, and it was already night, but the general who went out to patrol was still nowhere to be seen, which inevitably made the people left behind in the camp feel anxious. Pei Shiju sent two teams of men to pick up Da Xi Changru, but for a while, no news came, Pei Shiju was faintly uneasy, while ordering the generals not to slack off, while personally standing on the watchtower facing the camp gate, waiting for the main general to return to the camp.
Like a great enemy!
It is bitterly cold and the weather is harsh. The large camp of the Qi army was established based on the camp of the exterminated Turkic Buli Khan, and the outer defense was changed, but the basic plate was not moved, the terrain was high in the west and low in the east, and there was a shallow river in the southwest.
What is impregnable, this is it!
But Pei Shiju did not dare to slack off, this great plan to split the Turks was planned by him, people only saw his wisdom in front of people, but they didn't know how much effort he paid for this, how many days and nights, he read at night and thought hard about good strategies, just to live up to the emperor's trust. He won't allow anything to go wrong!
Pei Shiju gave a death order to the generals below, and the generals gave a death order to the corporaries.
On a cold day, most of the soldiers were reluctant to get up and be on duty in the middle of the night, if ordinary officials wanted them to do this and that, they would definitely be unwilling, but Pei Shiju was naturally different. After getting along these days, the whole army already knows how terrible it is for this little white face who looks elegant to rectify people, and the military orders are like a mountain, and they dare not disobey them.
muttered and scolded his mother secretly, but physically he resolutely obeyed the order.
Groups of soldiers put on their clothes and armor, and came out of their respective camp tents, standing full on more than a dozen watchtowers and 'city gates' in the camp, looking at the posture, if Da Xi Changru could not find anyone all night, then they would not go down to sleep all night. Pei Shiju watched from a high place for a while, feeling that this was almost the same, and just as he was about to go down to the watchtower, there was a commotion at the camp gate.
Pei Shiju was displeased, frowned, and asked, "What's the noise ahead?" β
"I don't know."
"Why don't you go and find out!"
The soldiers almost galloped over, only to find that it was Pei Shiju's probe horse that had been released more than an hour ago.
These people went out for a turn, and when they came back, they were full of embarrassment, and the war horse under their crotch was already weak, snorting and panting, and he shouted at the top of his voice: "ββQuickly open the door, I have an important situation to report to the generals, open the door quickly and let me in!" β
The gate of the camp had just been closed, and the lord of the building guarding the gate of the camp went up to the gate of the camp with torches, lined up the left and right shooters, and squinted his eyes and looked down. The cold wind in the night was particularly cold, he shrunk his neck, looked down, and vaguely recognized that the person below was wearing his own clothes and armor, and he looked a little familiar, but for the sake of insurance, he still asked a few more words:
"Master Pei has an order, close the door at night! Who are the outsiders and what are they? β
"He Mazi, blind dog's eyes! Lao Tzu just went out of this door not long ago, and he couldn't recognize me in a blink of an eye? One of them scolded angrily, and the owner's eyes lit up, and he heard that it was an acquaintance's voice, so he smiled and said:
"I'm sorry, I didn't hear it was you, Master Pei said, no matter who enters or leaves, you must carefully interrogate your identity, otherwise you will lose your head, Brother Liu, don't blame! But you're a big group of people out, so why are you the only ones left? β
"Damn, it's endless, isn't it?" Although the team surnamed Liu has a Han surname, he is a standard Hu man with a slightly brown beard, deep eye sockets, and a bad temper. Seeing the cross-examination of the lord of the building, he said impatiently: "We have met the Turks, and our lord and the general are fighting with the Turks in front, and I am ordered to come back and ask the generals to transfer troops to support!" β
Turks?!
In this cold and windy weather, how can there be Turks?!
Lord He choked in his throat, and his right hand subconsciously pressed on the handle of the knife, and he was about to interrogate something again, but he was kicked away. Pei Shiju led a few generals and stood behind with expressionless faces, Pei Shiju paused for a while, looked down, and asked coldly: "How many people have come from the Turks, and is the general now under siege by the Turks?" When the general meets the Turks, why don't you come directly and let you report the news? β
In front of Pei Shiju and the generals, Team Liu didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and raised his fists on the horse, and said with an embarrassed face: "There are about hundreds of people chasing, and the general is leading people to lead the Turks around in circles...... The general said that it was not known whether the rest of the Turkic troops and horses were lying in ambush on the side, and if they came directly to the pursuing troops, they were afraid that they would be in danger of losing their camp. β
"Doesn't the general know that the commander is trapped in the enemy camp, which is more serious than losing the camp?"
There was already irrepressible anger in Pei Shiju's tone: "Since he asked you to come over to transfer reinforcements, he must have ordered how many people to transfer, how many people does he want to save him?" β
Team Liu's face was even more embarrassed, because Pei Shiju had guessed everything, he glanced at Pei Shiju's expression carefully, and replied stubbornly: "The general said that Master Pei is willing to transfer a few people, if he is not willing to transfer a soldier and a pawn, it doesn't matter, he is not old yet, as long as a horse, a pair of armor, and a bow, it is enough to retreat from the enemy." β
Pei Shiju's forehead jumped violently, and he smashed a punch on the wooden railing, and the hardened snow foam collapsed instantly.
Qi Luorong glanced out worriedly, he was really afraid that Pei Shiju would not send a single soldier out to rescue him when he was angry, so he said: "Although General Daxi is brave, but now after all, he is in danger, and it is better for Brother Hong to send troops to support the general as soon as possible...... The general's words are not good, but the original intention must not be so, forbearance for the country. β
In the end, Luo Rong is more old and serious, and a sentence of forbearance for the country made Pei Shiju suppress his anger, in fact, Pei Shiju has no choice, he can really close the camp gate to death, and sit back and watch Da Xi Changru be shot into a hedgehog by the Turks? Don't say whether Pei Shiju has this right, even if he does, does Pei Shiju have the courage?
I'm afraid that Da Xi Changru will go to see the Buddha with his front foot, and he will follow Pei Shiju to the west with his back foot!
No matter how much of Da Xi Changru's words are joking, they can't be taken lightly...... After Pei Shiju was annoyed, he quickly calmed down and said lightly: "There are not many Turkic pursuers, and the momentum is very small, so I have no intention of investigating here, so don't be too nervous...... General Luo calculated, in addition to the men and horses to guard the camp, how many cavalry can we send out? β
"Less than five hundred."
"Then scatter it all," Pei Shiju tightened the robe tightly draped on his body, and said indifferently: "In addition, prepare a horse for me, I will go together to see the heroic posture of the old general breaking the enemy with a flick of his fingers." β
The generals were shocked, Da Xi Changru, an old thing, fought more than a dozen of them, you are a weak scholar, you can't pick your shoulders and your hands can't lift them, aren't you sent to death when you go there? So they persuaded him to think twice, Pei Shiju waved his hand and said:
"You guys are too worried, General Da Xi is not brave, and he still doesn't change his face when he is alone against hundreds of pursuers, presumably before it is my turn to make a move, he has already leveled this group of pursuers."
What are you kidding, when Da Xi Changru is ten thousand enemies? No matter how powerful he is, can he still fight hundreds of people by himself without falling behind?
Pei Shiju also thought so, he wanted to see with his own eyes what kind of embarrassment Da Xi Changru was chasing after the Turks, even if there was a danger of taking the bow and arrows, it was worth it.
Just a bad breath.
But after all, he didn't know that some people were born and couldn't be solved with common sense!
The dark clouds are half-covered, and on the vast Gobi, the barren fine snow decorates the earth with a white color.
The two teams of men and horses galloped under the moon, saying that it was chasing and killing, but it was better to say that it was fishing, dozens of Qi soldiers galloped forward under the crotch, and the Qi army opened the crossbow backwards on horseback, and shot indiscriminately, each time the crossbow sounded, there were three or two unlucky eggs who were planted from the horseback, and the Turks were also shot red-eyed, desperately biting in the back, the reason why they couldn't catch up for a long time, on the one hand, because the horse had no strength, on the other hand, because there was a magic shot in the Qi army.
Every time a few men were about to catch up with them, a series of arrows burst out of Pingbai, and the arrow hit the throat, and these wolf riders, who were known for their bravery and good at fighting, could not even dodge, and were shot on horseback!
β¦β¦ In the woods before, how they shot Qi people, now Qi people shoot them!
This is naked ~ naked humiliation!
The Turks were red-eyed and vowed to tear the Qi army in front of them apart. A few pawns shot backwards, turned around and shouted to Daxi Changru: "General, these Turkic barbarians are stalking and fighting, and they are endless!" "Their horses are running out of strength, and their feet are drifting more and more, and if they don't get rid of these pursuers, I'm afraid they'll have to dismount and fight on foot.
"Don't worry, we'll do it when we lead them a little longer!"
The veteran in front glanced back coldly, and as the horse galloped, he turned back sharply and pulled the heavy long bow into a full moon, only to see the flying shadow pass by, and another Turkic pursuer fell off the horse!
"The general is good at archery!"
The surrounding Qi troops cheered, and Da Xi Changru's eyes flashed with a fierce sword light, and he commanded everyone: "They chased us all the way and there was no movement of the rest of the soldiers and horses, thinking that this is just a lone army, there are no more reinforcements, let's turn around and kill them all!" β
After that, he clamped his legs between the horse's belly, lifted a spear and swept back, the big gun stretched out, and wherever the strength went, he rushed out a canopy of blood mist from the throat of several Turks at the forefront, and then penetrated into the enemy formation, tearing up the paper and killing the Turkic general in the center, the corpse was thrown high and smashed to the ground, the war horse could not contain its momentum, and was tripped by the corpse and fell down......
There was no one in person.
People immediately stepped forward, either dead or disabled, and they were a mess!
Dozens of men were stunned not far away, and it took a long time for them to remember, and they all turned around and rushed into the gap he had killed.
As for Pei Shiju's belated more than 500 people, they can only watch from the side. Luo Yi secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, pushed his elbow against Pei Shiju, and asked in a low voice, "Do you see us still going up?" β
Pei Shiju didn't say a word, he was stunned there, the scene that happened in front of him obviously subverted his previous understanding of the word "fierce general".
