At the end of June and the beginning of July, more and more people gathered in Ha Duong.

After the end of summer sowing, soldiers and horses from all over the country were drawn one after another, and hundreds to thousands of people arrived every day.

Yin Xi was transferred out of the Volunteer Army and served as the deputy governor of the newly established Capture Army.

On the third day of the seventh month, after receiving the seal of the tribal governor issued by the imperial court in Jinguyuan, he returned to the northern city of Heyang to rectify the army.

"Where did it come from?" Yin Xi is the son of a family, sitting at the top, eating wine and food in a leisurely manner, while the scribes are loud and registering the names of the soldiers one by one.

"Jiacheng people." A big man held his head high and said loudly.

Yin Xi glanced at it.

The man was dressed in green clothes, with a bow and a sword hanging from his waist, and was followed by two servants and two horses, one of which was carrying a basket of armour.

"Why did you join the army?" The scribe was about to ask for his name, and Yin Xi asked not far away.

"Just like a general, fight for an official body." Dahan said.

"You can buy these equipment, and your home is pretty good, right?" Yin Xi asked.

"There are still more than ten acres of land."

"If you have this business, why not be a rich man?"

The big man licked his lips and said, "My family's more than ten hectares of land are from the family of scholars. No one has been an official in his family for three generations, and the family business has been divided up. ”

"You're honest." Yin Xi laughed and said, "This is the reason why you have to be an official?" ”

"I heard that Chen Gong was born in the heavens, opening the door for the majority of martial artists. If I can't seize this opportunity, I'm afraid that my children and grandchildren will complain about me in the future. ”

Yin Xi listened and was a little moved.

Many people underestimated the influence of Chen Gong on recruiting officials for the martial arts.

In fact, this move not only excited his private troops and garrison soldiers, but also attracted great local tyrants outside the system.

They have land, soldiers, and food, but they don't have the opportunity.

At a time of great turmoil, this is a typical factor of local instability.

If you give them the opportunity to include them in the system, the instability will disappear completely, and then it can be your help.

They are too eager to get ahead, too eager to launder their wealth, legal or illegitimate. And all this, if you don't have an official body, it's hard to do.

Chen Gong gave them a chance.

Someone caught it, and Starry Night came to run.

Some people hesitated, thinking that the current day is not impossible to mix, and wait until they can't mix.

There are also people who are satisfied, thinking that the rich man can continue to do it.

People in the same situation, because of different choices, will have very different outcomes in the future.

This choice is not right or wrong, because not all the people who choose to fight for wealth and nobility can live to achieve fame, and those who choose to maintain the status quo will not necessarily be suppressed and ruined.

That's the beauty of life, it's unpredictable.

"What a strong man!" Yin Xi exclaimed, got up and picked up a glass of wine, handed it to this person, and said, "Can you drink it?" ”

This is not a wine bottle for scholars' gatherings, but a relatively large wine bowl filled with green wine.

The strong man took it and drank it directly.

"Good!" Yin Xi laughed: "How many people did you bring over?" ”

"Ten cavalrymen, more than fifty foot soldiers."

"You're not the only one in your family, aren't you?"

"If you have average skills, you can't naturally bring them out to be embarrassed."

"Okay, what's your name?"

"Gao Zhen."

"It turned out to be the same as the High Governor." Yin Xi smiled: "I'm in charge, and you can be the deputy of the team." ”

The overseer of the Capture Army is Gao Yi, who can be regarded as one of Shao Xun's early subordinates, and was originally Sima of the Ministry of Soldiers.

"General Xie." Gao Zhen was overjoyed.

"Don't rush to thank you just yet." Yin Xi said: "We are a capturing army, only cavalry." The foot soldiers you brought with you want to be scattered and incorporated into the loyal army, are you willing? ”

"Reluctantly."

"Okay, happy." Yin Xi praised: "Take your people to get the uniform." ”

"No." Gao Zhen walked to his own troops, first explained the reason to the more than 50 foot soldiers, and then took nine cavalrymen to receive the robes, which was officially enlisted.

Yin Xi sat back and watched silently.

The counties are so powerful, why not a branch of the scholar clan like him?

If it weren't for his sister marrying into the Chen Mansion as a concubine, he decisively took his family to join the army, and they might not be able to mix very well.

In the final analysis, the Changping Yin clan is not a big one, the main vein is mixed like that, not to mention their partial branches.

It's not easy for everyone.

Chen Gong actually gave everyone a chance, a way to jump out of the existing evaluation system and promote according to martial arts.

This door is actually very rare, and maybe one day it will not be able to bear the pressure and be forced to close. And before closing, this is the opportunity, even if you originally studied the literature, now it is better to treat yourself as a martial artist, find a way to win combat merits, and obtain an official body - you really can't fight, you can mix a military Chinese official, there are few opportunities for meritorious service, then you can stay up to seniority.

Seeing Gao Zhen and other heroes coming to vote today, Yin Xi didn't say anything, but thought a lot in his heart.

With the support of these people, Chen Gong's foundation is simply not stable.

Once upon a time, someone privately mentioned that Chen Gong was from a humble background, and the Ruoshi clan no longer supported him, and it may not be able to last.

Now it seems that he has made a big difference, even if the warrior clan does not support it, there are more and more martial artists around him. And it is no longer a vulgar and unliterate low-level martial artist, in addition to the students he taught, there are more strong places where he practices martial arts, and the foundation is further consolidated.

Huanghuang's general trend, being manipulated by him with weights as if it were light, is really powerful.

My sister is right, this is the top art of war in the world.

On July 11, Gao Yi, the overseer of the Capture Army, returned from listening to the training in Jingu Garden, and the first thing he did was to gather the troops who were training and cross the river from the pontoon bridge to the north.

Almost at the same time, the main cavalry of the Yicong Army attacked from the northern city and engaged in a fierce battle with the Huns who were watching outside the city.

War, at an unexpected time, broke out all of a sudden.

******

Summer nights are sweltering.

The sky was overcast, and there was not a hint of wind.

The rain was about to fall, and it was so uncomfortable that people went crazy, and even the horses were restless, neighing, and in poor condition.

"These beasts like the cool mountains, and this day really makes them uncomfortable." In the wilderness and grass, Gao Zhen fanned the wind with his felt hat and kept talking.

"Heh, you haven't been to the South." Someone laughed and said: "That territory is not conducive to cavalry galloping, but not only rivers and lakes, but there are many muddy lands, and horses can't stand it, they can't get sick at every turn, and they can't fight at all." ”

"If the cavalry can't do it, just rely on the infantry army. The Great Jin Dynasty destroyed Wu, and several ways out of the division, didn't it also be destroyed? ”

"Time is also fate. Before the destruction of Wu, didn't Cao Wei and the Guo Dynasty think about destroying Wu? Why not? Now that Jiangdong's household registration, money, and military strength are more than those of Eastern Wu, how can they be destroyed? ”

"Then wait for the opportunity."

Several landlords were arrogant and strong, and there was no sense of tension about the approaching war.

Men, in addition to women and money, like to talk about the general trend of the world the most, from ancient times to the present.

"Silence." Yin Xi walked over and said coldly: "Now it's not a fight in the countryside, but a real fight on the battlefield." It's not that I look down on you, if you continue to underestimate the enemy like this, sooner or later let the Hun herdsmen play to death. Do you really think people are bad? In the Later Han Dynasty, they used money to fight, and for more than a hundred years, aren't they better at killing people on the battlefield than you? ”

The words made everyone speechless.

They came from a wealthy family, often practiced the art of archery and horse riding, and boasted of their extraordinary martial arts. But is the battle formation experience really stronger than that of the Huns?

Even if he is just a bitter shepherd, he is so poor that he may have been a mercenary.

People have more experience than you!

It seems easy for the righteous army to deal with the Hun herdsmen, that is because they are also warriors who have been fighting on the battlefield for many years, what are you? Country brawler?

"I will do what I am told. The people of each family belong to their own families, and cooperate tacitly. Yin Xi said again: "If there is a person who does not enter, there will be no forgiveness." ”

"No." Everyone's hearts sank, and they answered softly.

Yin Xi smiled and said, "Bring the equipment and go." ”

Everyone jumped up, beckoned their tribes, led their horses, through the sparse woods, over the dense artemisia grass, across the dark and dreary river, and arrived at a mountain port.

Yin Xi subconsciously turned his head and glanced at it.

Although he couldn't see anything clearly, he knew that the Yellow River was over there, watching them silently.

The main force of the Yicong army fought for casualties and attacked fiercely, attracting a large number of Huns to the past and creating fighters.

And this fighter plane is very small, and it will be difficult for a large group of cavalry to avoid the eyes of others, and only a small group of men and horses can have a slight possibility.

There was a camp two miles away, faintly lit with fire.

In the darkness of the night, there was little movement.

I don't know when, I ran back to count the horses, walked in front of Yin Xi, and whispered a report.

Yin Xi no longer hesitated, turned over his horse, and rushed straight away.

Seventy or eighty horsemen followed, rushing down the hill.

The distance of two miles is just around the corner.

"Bang dang!" The brazier was the first to be kicked down.

Some of them dismounted and lit fires everywhere.

Others rushed straight to the camp that the Huns had set up near the cattle pen.

When the horse's hooves were trampled, the Huns, who got up in a daze, were rushed to pieces.

"Poof!" The saber slashed across the chest and abdomen, and the blood was dripping and the intestines were gushing out.

"Whoosh!" In the faint light of the fire, the feather arrow hit the forehead.

"Ahh The lance rose high, and the screams pierced the night sky.

In an instant, the Huns guarding the livestock pens were dead and wounded.

The fire burned more and more violently.

The cattle in the pen were in a commotion and screamed.

To the north of the livestock pen is a huge wooden fence.

At this time, the gate of the fence had just been opened, and seven or eight Hun herdsmen rushed out, and before they could figure out the situation, a rain of arrows came and drove them back.

The commotion inside the fence grew more and more intense.

After a while, almost everyone was awakened.

"Kill!" Gao Zhen rushed forward panting, followed by more than 20 strong men, armed with short soldiers and shields, and went straight inside along the door to kill.

To be honest, his legs were a little weak, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his face was even paler. But he barely suppressed the fear in his heart, shouted, and fought with the oncoming Huns.

"Bang!" The shield blocked a blow, and Gao Zhen subconsciously swung his knife to fight back, not expecting to be able to knock down the enemy with this blow, but the feeling of the blade entering the flesh made his heart flutter.

"Ahh In the midst of the screams, a twelve or thirteen-year-old Hun boy covered his neck and fell to the ground.

Someone next to him came out of the crowd, relying on the ancestral iron armor on his body, and carried a hard blow, and then swung his knife and slashed directly, with such great strength that it was jaw-dropping.

"Poof!" Blood gushed out, and an old head rolled to the ground.

"Kill the thief!" More people poured in, cutting down people when they saw them, and killing them when they saw them.

The Hun youths, old men, and healthy women who got up in a hurry kept falling to the ground.

Everyone looked uplifted when they saw it, there were no young and strong men, so what were you waiting for!

Kill! Kill them all!

Yin Xi took more than thirty riders to go around the fence.

Fang Cai rushed out more than ten horsemen one after another, and was intercepted by them, killing six people, and the rest disappeared into the vast night.

There will be no one rushing out anymore, maybe dead, maybe not, who knows.

"You, go inside and pass it down, and those who abandon their weapons and kneel on the ground will not be killed!" Yin Xi summoned someone and commanded.

"No." The man turned his horse's head and rushed into the fence.

Yin Xi stood on his horse.

He also saw that there were actually not many people in this camp, only two or three hundred men, women and children combined, and it might be a clan under a certain tribe.

There were very few young men and few horses left behind in the camp, and they were probably all sent to the front.

That's the best!

These people under his command really don't have much combat experience, and if they encounter a strong left-behind force, they may not be able to fight.

Today's first battle is completed, it is his luck, and it is also the luck of the newcomers under his hands.
