23 Morale

Zhuge De and Zhu Jianheng have been operating in different enemy territories for many years, dealing with all kinds of people, and they have rich experience, and they have not made any mistakes in leading things.

What really went wrong was the main army led by Lin Jian'an.

On the third day of the rapid march, the Shanzi battalion had reached the vicinity of the Waist Ridge Pass.

The terrain of Waist Ridge Pass is the most precipitous, full of rocks, overgrown with weeds, the road has long been gone, and it is necessary to climb over the mountains. Horses can't be ridden, Lin Jian'an asked everyone to take off their armor, place their horses together with weapons and crossbows, and lead the horses to walk uphill.

After another half a day, it was getting late, not to mention ordinary soldiers at this time, even Lin Jian'an himself felt a little unbearable.

Not to mention the pain of blood blisters on the feet, the main reason is that the weather is hot, and the itching on the body is unbearable, like countless ants crawling on the body, and there is no way to wash, and it is not easy to ensure that you can drink water.

Lin Jian'an immediately ordered to stop and rest, and then quietly went down with Gao Liang to check the condition of the soldiers.

Unlike the army of the imperial court, Lin Jian'an, as the main general, did not pay attention to anything special, and his clothes and clothes were no different from ordinary soldiers, and he was not afraid of being discovered.

"What the fuck is this called? How happy I was before, and now I suffer this living sin. ”

"I've been walking day by day, and I haven't seen a single hair, why?"

"Mind the ball, I don't want to move anyway, I love it. Why don't you tell Captain Wu about it, if you can't go back? ”

Lin Jian'an felt a little chill in his heart, and finally understood what it meant to wait for work.

In the past, when I trained, I paid attention to military formations, paid attention to uniformity, and paid attention to orders and prohibitions, but I never engaged in long-distance weight-bearing marches.

The point is what now?

With the current morale, in the face of more than 5,000 Hu elites and 3,000 Han troops as the back road, even if they attack secretly, they will undoubtedly not be able to win, let alone annihilate their opponents.

Lin Jian'an didn't continue walking, returned to his horse with Gao Liang, thought about it, took off his armor and dressed neatly, wiped his face with little water, and recovered a little spirit.

Seeing this, Gao Liang and the guards did the same.

Lin Jian'an instructed Gao Liang to arrange for each capital to gather people, and he wanted to say a few words to everyone.

Lin Jian'an has already thought about it, and now he can tell everyone about the national righteousness, saving the people from fire and water, and how it will be good in the future, it is all nonsense, and it is useless at all, so he can only think of some crooked tricks according to the characteristics of the Shanzi camp.

The effect of years of training is obvious, and the people quickly gathered, looking at the black crowd below who were looking at him, Lin Jian calmed down, jumped on a big stone with high spirits, and said in a loud voice:

"Brothers, now is the rest time, I'll tell you an interesting story, the year before last I took the senior deputy commander and the commander of the word camp Zhang Commander Li and others to drink together, this word camp and the wind word camp are a little dirty in private, has not been on the right way, at that time I drank a little too much, this commander made fun of Commander Li, saying that you Lao Li can't drink, and even more can't fight, when you Lao Li took more than 2,000 people to escort the military rations, encountered less than 1,000 Hu cavalry robbing food, the food was not protected and not said, so 8 people came back, the shoes were gone, and the pants were gone, and I asked, scared to pee my pants, embarrassed to wear it back. ”

The crowd below burst into laughter.

Lin Jian'an then said: "Originally, what they said about theirs was none of my business, but it was strange that we had just been adapted at that time, and others looked down on us, that Lao Li saw that I was also laughing, so he fucking ridiculed me, saying that if it weren't for me being the son-in-law of the handsome, I wouldn't be qualified to drink with them, just the soft-footed shrimp of our Shanzi Camp, no matter how bad his Fengzi Camp is, he can beat our Shanzi Camp's fart and urine!" ”

There was a sudden uproar below, and the crowd was indignant.

Lin Jian'an's eyes were highlighted.

Gao Liang dared to swear to the sky, what Lin Jian'an said had never happened, and when he saw Lin Jian'an signaling him, he immediately understood, and also jumped on the boulder and said angrily:

"Lao Tzu has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for so many years, how many people have been killed, and any hero has to beg for mercy under Lao Tzu's crotch, when has he ever suffered such a bird anger? If it wasn't for the commander pulling me at that time, Lao Tzu would have beaten out this on the spot. ”

This set of cottage tones has not been heard by everyone for a long time, Gao Liang has taken them to train together for a long time, and his own martial arts are brilliant, and he is very prestigious, these words immediately resonated and morale soared.

Lin Jian'an then said: "There are less than 2 days to go, we will arrive at our ambush site, the military food and water are ready, the brothers insist on working hard, we have all rushed over with strong winds and waves, are you still afraid of this?" In front is the elite of the Hu army who scared Commander Li to pee his pants, let's let Commander Li take a look, let the Hu people in Guanzhong take a look, let the millions of soldiers and civilians in the Han Mansion take a look, and let the fathers and grandfathers of Qingfeng Mountain also take a look, what kind of heroes and heroes our Shanzi Battalion is! ”

Looking at the high-spirited subordinates below, Lin Jian'an breathed a sigh of relief, damn it, going around and around, and relying on the original mountain bandits.

More than ten miles south of Wulang Pass, the whole army gave up the horse, sent Zhuge De's people to bring back the waist ridge pass under their control, put on armor and carried a bow over the mountains, there was nothing unexpected behind it, and arrived at the ambush site on the morning of the fifth day, according to the non-stop report of Zhu Jianheng's elite scouts, at this time the main force of Xiri Bari was still sixty miles away, and the servant army was farther away, and it was not long after leaving Jiangzi Pass.

Taking advantage of the moment of repairing and resting, Lin Jian'an brought Gao Liang and the commanders of each of them, and Zhuge De and Zhu Jianheng had also come back to converge.

The battle is about to begin, and Lin Jian'an made the last deployment arrangement: "According to Hu Jun's itinerary, it should be to rest at Wulang Pass, and it will be evening for us." It is really God's favor for us, the Shanzi battalion is different from other imperial court troops, they are very easy to mutiny and collapse when they march and fight at night, and less than thirty percent of the combat effectiveness is left, and the Hu army is not much better. But who are we, in the past, the night was dark and the wind was high, murder and robbery were commonplace, and night training was not once or twice. But don't take it lightly, there is still some time, each of them arrange for their men to go up the mountain to catch birds, and don't kill, wait for the enemy to lead the scout to shoot arrows and test, shoot there, and release it to confuse the enemy. ”

"All units must maintain absolute silence before attacking, and they cannot eat anything, and they can only launch an attack when the Hu army brigade enters the ambush site, and the Chinese army's arrows shall prevail, and all departments must explain it, and it is strictly forbidden to make noise and strictly prohibit unauthorized attacks, otherwise military law will be engaged."

Lin Jian'an said to Zhu Jianheng again: "From now on, the scouts must report the enemy's position every hour, so that the whole army can prepare, be careful, pay attention to concealment, avoid being discovered by the Hu army scouts, and don't kill the scouts without permission." ”

"After three rounds of bow and arrow attacks, the whole army will go down the mountain to assault, and once the central army is broken, I will lead the guards and the first and fifth capitals to pursue and advance in the direction of the Meridian Pass. The senior deputy commander led the remaining troops in pursuit of the rear, and after annihilating the enemy, they joined us. Note that all the departments are not allowed to kill the war horses without permission, and each department will send people to collect one place, which will be of great use to me after the war. ”

Finally, he said to Zhuge De: "You take the northern detachment to the junction of the Hu army and the servant army, and when I sound the arrows here, attack immediately, not to annihilate, but to cut off and not let the convergence, after I defeat the main force of the Hu army, I will immediately come up to cooperate, and follow the servant army to the north to capture the pass." ”

All the things that need to be done are done, and there is no need to do anything more, and everything will be decided tonight.

Lin Jian'an looked through the dense forest, looking at the blue sky high and far, his mood gradually calmed down, and he made the final preparations before the battle. Hu Ren killed his biological father, today can be regarded as a way of revenge!
