Volume 15 The Winner is King Chapter 1215 North into the Chi River
The sky is very high and blue, the mountain is very high and difficult to climb, and the road is really dangerous.
This is a small road into the Chihe Empire, because it is too difficult to walk, usually there is not a single passerby here for many years, but at this time, the people passing through here are lined up.
Not only people, but also horses, livestock, and beautiful female generals......
Once again, the trebuchet got stuck on the mountain road, and the soldiers on the side rushed up and prying it with iron rods, which was not the first time they had done such a job, but each time it was the same as the previous one, but with a lot of effort.
"It's not a good road. Lin Zhengfeng shook his head and complained. In order to achieve the goal of secretly entering the Chihe Empire, this time they chose an extremely difficult path. This road is really not easy to walk, it is only the third day, and more than 100 soldiers have already had accidents. What made Lin Zhengfeng's face pale, the soldiers who had the accident were all his An Rong soldiers, and only one soldier on Hu Wei's side wiped his hands.
After agreeing to a cooperation agreement with Hu Wei, Lin Zhengfeng joined Hu Wei's troops with 50,000 An Rong soldiers. It's not that Lin Zhengfeng is stingy, Hu Wei only paid 50,000 when he paid 100,000, but he really didn't have so many soldiers who could handle it.
Before he saw Hu You's soldiers, Lin Zhengfeng didn't think there was anything wrong with his soldiers, but after seeing Hu You's soldiers, he suddenly found that many of his soldiers could not be counted as soldiers. It took a lot of thought for Lin Zhengfeng to barely get together 50,000 elite soldiers. Now it seems that his 50,000 elite soldiers are still not very good.
"Hmm. Hu Wei's brows furrowed deeply. Before hitting the road, he had expected that the road would not be too easy. But when he really walked, he realized that he still didn't estimate the difficulties, and it was still a sunny day, and the road was already so difficult to walk. If it rains and snows, it's even more difficult.
"But that's the only way to go. Hu Wei shook his head, they had no other choice.
Is there a good way to go?
Of course, there is, but the easy path is more dangerous. The 150,000 troops, no matter how secret they are, can't avoid the exploration of the Chihe people, and once they lose the card of surprise attack, they want to use 150,000 people to defeat the Chihe Empire. That's just a joke.
Night fell again, and the mountain roads were difficult to walk during the day, and it was even more impossible to travel overnight. Along the mountain road, the soldiers camped in place. Last night there were soldiers who slept until midnight and rolled around. Roll straight down the cliff, and be careful when camping tonight.
"I couldn't take a bath, and my whole body was so sick that I died. Ouyang Narcissus pouted and hummed. She hadn't had a bath for three days, and the daffodils were running out of water and were about to stink.
Girls can endure a lot of things. But not being able to take a shower is really unbearable. Girls love beauty, and the whole body smells of sweat, and it's a beautiful fart.
Hu Wei came in from outside, heard Ouyang Shuixian's words, and said with a smile: "A soldier has discovered the water spring. If you are not afraid of the cold water, you can go and wash it. ”
"Really?" Ouyang Shuixian's eyes lit up. jumped and ran to Hu Wei's side.
Hu Wei nodded and said, "Of course it's true, but this is in the mountains." There's a lot of that, so be careful when you go. ”
Ouyang Shuixian's face became a little unpleasant. Those things refer not to ghosts but to snakes and insects, Ouyang Narcissus is not afraid of anything else, but he is afraid of snakes, and he can't even hear it, so Hu Wei can only replace it with that thing.
"Can't you drive them away?" Ouyang Narcissus hesitated.
Hu Wei laughed. When this girl doesn't fight, she is not much different from ordinary girls, and she doesn't speak through her brain. I don't even know where the snakes are or when they will come out, and it's so easy to chase them away.
"Don't laugh, anyway, I don't care, I'm going to take a shower. Ouyang Narcissus snorted unreasonably. It is in the nature of women to be unreasonable, whether it is a princess or a commoner, they have the freedom to be unreasonable. …,
"Okay, let's eat first, and I'll help you figure out a way after eating. Hu Wei shook his head helplessly, of course, there were more ingredients. When he found the water source before, he had already asked the soldiers to make arrangements. Ouyang Shuixian is not only a female general and female soldier in the army, and bathing is their welfare.
Ouyang Shuixian saw Hu Wei compromise, and then smiled sweetly. She knew that as long as Hu Wei nodded, there must be a way.
"Hey, you're alone, young marshal?" Lin Zhengfeng came in and found Hu Wei sitting there alone, and couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Hu Wei said angrily: "Then how many people do you want?"
After eating, Hu Wei asked Zhebei to accompany Ouyang Shuixian to take a bath at the water source. Ouyang Narcissus is afraid of snakes, but Jebel is not afraid. Jebe had a very bitter family when she was a child, and snakes used to be her source of food, so how could she be afraid.
"It's just a little strange, young marshal, how about we have a drink. Lin Zhengfeng was originally here to find Hu Wei, so he asked casually.
Hu Wei knew that Lin Zhengfeng must have come for something, so he nodded and asked Lin Zhengfeng to sit down. Lin Zhengfeng brought his own wine, so he didn't need to worry about anything.
Lin Zhengfeng's wine is good, and when it is opened, the room is full of fragrance. Drinking, Lin Zhengfeng frowned.
Hu Wei asked, "Are you worried about the rain?" ”
"If the young marshal already knew. A few experienced people under my command told me that this rain will not be small, and this mountain is high and the road is dangerous, I am afraid that there will be problems. ”
Lin Zhengfeng is actually a good general, at least he still cares about the soldiers. Although he can't eat and live with the soldiers like Hu Wei, as an emperor, it is already rare for him to care about the well-being of the soldiers. Hu Wei also took a fancy to him, so he helped him in all aspects many times. Otherwise, Lin Zhengfeng would have no chance of sitting on An Rong's throne.
"The sky is full of yellow clouds, and I am afraid that this rain will not be small. But don't worry, the rocks here are dangerous but relatively stable, and there are unlikely to be mudslides or more terrible disasters. ”
"That's good. Lin Zhengfeng listened to Hu Wei's words, and he was also a lot more relieved. Hu Wei experienced a natural disaster in Dingsi, and he knew that only a dozen people from more than 1,000 people survived. The terrain here is so similar to Dingsi, Lin Zhengfeng is afraid that he will also experience one.
In the middle of the night, the torrential rain came. The night sky was torn apart by lightning, and the rain seemed to engulf the whole world, and tens of thousands of tents swayed in the wind and rain on the mountain road......
******************************************
The mountain road has finally come to an end. It's not easy. After fifteen days, and after losing nearly a thousand soldiers, the 150,000 troops were finally about to get out of the damn mountain road.
These fifteen days of hardship, I am afraid that even in the diary, many people are reluctant to recall. Not only did they experience a heavy rainstorm, but they also had to be on guard against poisonous snakes and poisonous insects that would get into the tent without knowing when, and they were in danger of rolling off the cliff if they were not careful. If it weren't for the fact that before the march, Hu Wei would have made a lot of arrangements. I'm afraid that if more than a thousand lives are buried here, that number will be much higher.
Ouyang Shuixian, who was the most energetic, was already gone, and his head was lowered listlessly. The last few days were the most difficult to walk, and even she walked on her feet.
Lin Zhengfeng's face was also not good-looking. It was the hardest road he had ever walked in his life, and there was no one.
Hu Wei looked at the plain in the distance and let out a long sigh. He didn't expect to lose more than a thousand soldiers along the way. More than a dozen enlisted, and so many soldiers were lost on the march. This is the second experience, and the first time is naturally the one of the natural disasters in Dingsi.
But the losses are worth it, and it only takes a day to get past here. You can reach Jincheng, the capital of the Chi River. And if you go through the normal channels and call all the way. Even if it was a winning streak, it would have to lose at least 100,000 soldiers. And it can't achieve the purpose of the surprise attack, and the final harvest will definitely be failure. …,
"Finally out of it...... Wait, what are you?"
Before Hu Wei finished speaking, his face immediately changed. Everywhere in sight, the troops of the Chihe Empire actually appeared. The armor reflected a blinding light in the sunlight. That's right, it must be a river pool soldier, and it's a heavy cavalry.
Was it ambushed?
Extremely bad thoughts flashed in Hu Wei's mind, if that was the case, then half a month of their hard work would be in vain. But how could that be, this march was highly secretive, and before entering the mountain road, few people knew the route of this march. And those who have entered the mountain road are even more unlikely to reveal the news.
Whether it was an ambush in advance or a coincidence, Hu Wei didn't have time to guess now. The Chihe soldiers had apparently discovered the situation here, they were already in formation, and they were about to rush over. Once they get close, it will be a disaster for Hu Wei.
The mountain road is too difficult to walk, and almost none of the war horses accompanying the army have succeeded in coming, and their 150,000 troops are all infantry. When the infantry encountered the cavalry without a formation and arrangement, it was almost lifeless, and even Hu Wei could not prevent the disaster from happening.
The only way now is not to have the kind of situation where the infantry is directly facing the cavalry.
"Ouyang Narcissus!" Hu Wei shouted.
"In. Ouyang Shuixian also discovered the enemy situation over there, and strengthened the spirit of his whole body.
"I command you to take five thousand soldiers and fight against the small hill on the right, and hold the enemy back for me. ”
"Yes!"
Ouyang Shuixian did not hesitate to carry out Hu Wei's order, even though she knew that it was an order that was almost certain to die. That high ground was not very high, which only slowed down the enemy's impact, but did not stop the cavalry from rushing up.
The infantry was already at a loss to the cavalry, and it was even more difficult for the soldiers to rush into battle after a long march of fifteen days, without even drinking a sip of water.
Don't look at Ouyang Shuixian in front of Hu Wei like a little girl who hasn't grown up, she is one of the few outstanding female generals in the world. As Ximen Yufeng gradually withdrew from the command of the troops, Ouyang Shuixian is now the first female general of the Immortal Bird Legion.
Ouyang Narcissus's battle flag was erected, all kinds of flags were constantly played, and a group of soldiers received the order and immediately acted according to Ouyang Narcissus's military orders. At this moment, the powerful combat ability of the Immortal Bird Legion was revealed at once. 5,000 men quickly separated from the troops, seized the high ground, established temporary positions, and quickly completed pre-battle preparations.
The whole operation was like a smooth flow, except for the sound of footsteps and some soldiers crying and touching their armor, there was no sound.
Lin Zhengfeng had long known that the Immortal Bird Legion had the nickname of the Silent Grim Reaper, and this time he finally saw it. Compared with others, An Rongbing's chickens and dogs really made Lin Zhengfeng blush. But he was also glad he had decided. Choosing to cooperate with Hu Wei instead of going to war is definitely the most right thing he has done in his life.
The earth trembled incessantly, and even if you didn't look at it, you could feel the strength of the enemy's ride. Suddenly, the enemy's heavy cavalry appeared here. Many people panicked. But when they saw Ouyang Shuixian and the others leading people to seize the battle position for a while, their hearts couldn't help but calm down again. Girls are not afraid, you are not afraid of a bird with a bird.
Ouyang Shuixian was almost a goddess in the eyes of the soldiers at this time. She gave the soldiers the strength to fight, and the soldiers who received the order did their best to do what they should do quickly, and the soldiers who did not receive the order were also ready at any time.
Hu was so worried that he didn't know that sending Ouyang Narcissus to take the lead would have such a role. The reason why he is called Ouyang Narcissus. That's because Ouyang Shuixian's ability is very strong, and her troops happen to be in the nearest position. As a general, Hu Wei just made the most correct decision. …,
Giving orders to Ouyang Shuixian was just the beginning, and then Hu Wei's orders were one after another. Because he didn't expect to encounter the enemy's cavalry as soon as he came out, the heavy defensive weapons in the army have not yet been heavily assembled.
This time. Hu Wei's troops brought with them the bed crossbow, a newly invented invention of Weiwei. The bed crossbow is similar to the car crossbow, but it is very different. A car crossbow can only fire one arrow at a time, while a bed crossbow can fire five arrows at a time. These five are not arrows, they are spears more than two meters long in the hands of soldiers. The bed crossbow uses a spear directly as a firing weapon, with great strength. Five spears were fired at the same time.
The spear was propelled by the power of the bed crossbow, and the power was terrifying. When Hu Wei was trying to shoot, he saw with his own eyes that the spear shot by Wei Wei with a bed crossbow directly pierced the wall more than two feet thick. This toy is even more remarkable when it is shot on a war horse. It was not pierced, but smashed directly. Even the war horses and the cavalry. All smashed with a spear.
This kind of bed crossbow is undoubtedly a good weapon against heavy armored cavalry, and Hu Wei is now assembling a bed crossbow for all people. The bed crossbow is just too big. It is not possible to move in whole at the time of crossing the trail. It was dismantled into small pieces and carried by the soldiers. It takes some time to assemble, and these times will depend on Ouyang Shuixian's.
Ouyang Narcissus didn't bother with other things. All she knew was that Hu Wei's order was to prevent the enemy's cavalry from breaking into the main formation. As long as you do your best, you can do it.
In order to boost morale, Ouyang Shuixian personally beat the war drums.
"Kill. ”
This is the sound of the Chihe cavalry rushing up, and they need to shout to boost their courage.
Ouyang Shuixian's side didn't respond with a voice, they told each other with the arrows in their hands, and they had to pay the price for rushing up, the price of their lives.
The arrows rained down on Chihejun, striking the heavy armor with a clanging sound. This voice is not a good thing for Ouyang Shuixian. That meant that the arrows didn't have much effect on the cavalry.
"Shoot horses. Ouyang Narcissus exclaimed.
Chihe's army didn't know where it jumped from, and even the horses were armoured. Luckily, the horse wasn't able to cover it completely, and there were still some chances to shoot.
The people of Chihe smirked, they were just passing by, but they didn't expect to suddenly encounter an enemy. This is a military feat that fell from the sky.
For the beautiful female general who commanded in front of the formation, they didn't pay attention to Ben. Although they are both countries on the Tianfeng Continent, the Hechi Empire and the Mandala Empire are different, and there are no female soldiers here. The status of women in the Chihe Empire is relatively low, and they are not qualified to go to war.
"General Ouyang, the side road is dangerous. "The Chihe cavalry took advantage of the heavy armor and rushed straight to the position in a brutal manner. Although the soldiers had already shot the horses with all their might, after all, the horses also wore armor, and it was not easy to shoot, and the side roads were about to be sudden.
"Let the spear team go up, and even if you die, you will resist me. Ouyang Narcissus said angrily.
A thousand spearmen left their positions, and although time was very tight, they managed to form some small formations. In the face of the onslaught of the enemy's cavalry, they did not take a step back, but in groups of two, they held their spears together, and pointed their sharp points at the enemy.
The enemy's horses may be able to trample them to pulp, but even if they die, they must leave a memorial to the enemy.
The cavalry and spearmen collided with each other, and the air instantly emitted a thick bloody aura. The muffled hum of the soldiers and the mournful screams of the war horses form a blood-red oil painting.
Ouyang Shuixian's eyes were all red, and a thousand spearmen only resisted the enemy for ten minutes, and the whole army was wiped out. However, their blood was not shed in vain, those invincible Chihe cavalry were afraid, and Ouyang Narcissus could see the fear in their eyes.
"Follow me with the sword!"
Ouyang Shuixian pulled out his sword and jumped out of the position. At this moment, she couldn't care about so much.
"General Ouyang, you can't go. The first general stopped Ouyang Narcissus. What kind of trick to play, let Ouyang Narcissus personally go up to fight bloodily, then it will be repaid.
"Let's go up, if we can't do it, General Ouyang, you go up again. ”
The other lieutenant drew his long knife as he spoke, and jumped out of position first.
What kind of generals there are, what kind of soldiers, the generals are not afraid of yes, and the soldiers dare to play with their lives. This would make even Ouyang Narcissus rush forward, and the soldier's anger was ignited.
What's the big deal, don't you just have horses? Don't you know that no horses are in vogue right now!
The soldiers in the rear saw the bravery of the side and took the initiative to ask for battle. His comrades-in-arms are fighting the enemy with their lives, and he can't watch from the sidelines. (To be continued......)
