Volume 3: The Flames of War 466 Chapter War Forecaster
The Mandala Empire is forty-three years old, and there are still five days before the New Year's Pass, and ordinary people are already preparing for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. In their words, no matter how hard it is, they have to have a good New Year, and in their opinion, a rich New Year is a sign that the next year will be better. Of course, this is just the good wish of the common people, whether it can really be like that, no one can say.
Hu Wei is a man who is destined to work hard, and he has not been able to have a safe birthday this year, when he is riding a horse across the pontoon bridge. On the pontoon, there are also a large number of blood stains that have dried up, which were left three days ago.
Three days ago, Xi M-ny-Feng erected three pontoon bridges on the Kyushu River at the same time, and brought 100,000 recruits from Hehong Town to attack Pinghe Town on the opposite bank.
After a whole day of hard fighting, Xi M-ny-Feng finally won the battle and occupied the town of Pinghe. Pinghe Town and Hehong Town face each other across the river, which is the traditional territory of the Black Cross Legion, and taking it is equivalent to scattering a handful of sand in Gulit's eyes. After Hu Wei received the battle report, he immediately took 3,000 soldiers from the personal guard battalion and left L-NG Tiancheng, and he wanted to work the army himself.
Hu Wei's practice of personally working the army made these soldiers from Hehong Town, who had just joined the Immortal Bird Legion and went to the battlefield, feel a strong sense of belonging, and also greatly boosted their morale.
Xi m-ny-Feng said: "Isn't there too much reward you just now, generally like this xiǎo win, each soldier can have one gold coin is already very satisfied, you actually give three at a time." It's not like your stingy style. ”
Hu Wei smiled bitterly: "Do I give you the impression of a stingy person?" This time is different from the past, they have added up before and after, and it is only a short month to enlist, and they still don't have much loyalty to the legion at all. Only by rewarding them can they raise their morale and be more combative. ”
Xi m-ny-Feng glanced at Hu Wei and said, "In terms of lip service, I can't talk about you." By the way, are you going to spend the New Year here, or go back to L-NG for the New Year. ”
"What do you want!" Hu Wei gently hugged Xi M-ny-Feng and sniffed her hair.
Xi m-ny-Feng leaned into Hu Wei's arms and said: "Emotionally, of course I hope you are here to spend the New Year with me, we have known each other for so many years, and we have never spent the New Year together."
But my reason told me that you should go back to L-Ng for the New Year, and the soldiers and civilians there need you as a commander even more. You know, I'm really conflicted. ”
While the two were talking, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside M-N, and Hu Wei and Xi M-ny-Feng had just come to separate in a hurry, and a figure rushed in.
The name of the person is Huang Y-Nyang, a native of Hehong Town, who has been in the local army of Hehong Town for more than ten years, and does not have much ability, but this person is quite clear about the various forces in Hehong Town.
As soon as Huang Y-N Yang rushed in, he shouted: "Young Marshal, General Xi M-N, the big thing is not good, Gullit has led a large army to kill it!"
Hu Wei secretly said in his heart, and asked calmly: "How many people are coming, and how far is the distance." ”
Huang Y-nyang hurriedly said: "It's about thirty miles, overwhelming, I don't know how many people there are." Young marshal, let's run quickly, it's too late to come!"
Hu Wei shouted: "It's just a war, what's the panic! Jebel, you personally take someone to investigate, I want to know how many people Gullit came this time, what equipment he had, and why he came so quickly!"
Seeing that Zhebei took the order and left, Hu Wei looked at Huang Y-N Yang and said, "You go and inform all the generals, go to the city wall immediately, and prepare for battle!"
The town of Peace is just a very ordinary town among the 360 towns in the Mandala Empire. Its city defense is still a lot worse than that of Hehong Town. Its only advantage is that it is located in the dug ground, and the cavalry cannot be deployed, which is not conducive to the battle of large corps. As long as the defenses are properly arranged, this can be regarded as a Xiǎo fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The headquarters of the Black Cross Legion is in Shoubai City. Shoubaicheng is located in the Jiāo boundary of Yunzhou and Huā Hezhou, which was originally inconspicuous, and it was a town that was developed only after Degulit's attention.
Shoubaicheng is hundreds of miles away from Pinghe Town, and it is said that even if Gulit received the news that Pinghe Town was attacked, he did not fight back so quickly. But things often happen so coincidentally, when Pinghe Town was attacked by Xim-ny-Feng, Gulit was not in Shoubai City, but in Lanban City, which was less than one hundred and fifty miles away from Hehong Town.
Lanbancheng is the second largest city in Huā River State and the hometown of Gullit's mother. Gullit went to Lanban City to pay New Year's greetings to his mother. Gullitt received the news that the town of Pinghe had been attacked in Lanban City, and he was so angry that he almost didn't turn his back on it. ,
Immediately, no year passed, and immediately the defenders of the first line of Chōu Konglanban, Buma, Jiangma, and Toutan, with a total of 170,000 horses, rushed towards Pinghe Town with great momentum.
Gullit knew better than anyone that once the Legion of the Undead Birds gained a foothold in Peace Town, then his life would not be easy. This time, he will not hesitate to kill the Immortal Bird Legion!
Hu Wei and Xi M-ny-Feng and other generals, climbed to the head of Pinghe Town, and from a distance, they could see that there was a thick black line on the green S- land. Coincidentally, the uniforms of the Black Cross Legion, like the uniforms of the Legion of the Immortals, are all black S-.
When Huang Y-N Yang saw such a situation, his body trembled like a sieve. Hu Wei didn't even look at him, and asked Jebel, who had just returned to the city, and said, "Tell me about the situation you found." ”
"Yes, we caught a few live ......"
Jebe once studied intelligence gathering with Hou San, and in a short period of time, he has obtained a lot of information. Hurry up and tell the information you found one by one. Including why Gullitt was able to send troops so quickly, and the deployment of military forces.
"New Year's greetings to the old mother?" Hu Wei snorted: "I can't see that Gullit is still a filial son." Chōu's troops on the front line of Konglan Bancheng, he is trying to play with us. Y-Feng, what do you think!"
Xi M-ny-Feng pondered: "This is an opportunity for us. If we can defeat Gulit this time, then the towns of Lanpan, Jiangma, Buma, and Toutan will fall into our hands. Our Immortal Bird Legion can be regarded as truly standing!"
Hu Wei laughed and said: "Y-Feng is right, this is the blessing of Sai Weng's loss of his horse." Everyone, this is a great opportunity that God has given us to the Immortal Bird Legion, money, beauty, and honor are waiting for us, what reason do we have not to take it? Are you scared?"
"Don't be afraid!" the three thousand members of the guard battalion shouted first, they were all Hu Wei's most loyal soldiers, and they would never doubt any of Hu Wei's decisions.
Hu Wei turned to look at more soldiers and shouted, "Are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!"
Most of these Hehong soldiers are hot-blooded and young, and they have not experienced much war, which is their shortcoming, but it is also their advantage. It is precisely because they do not understand the cruelty of war that they are more tolerant of being instigated.
Looking at Hu Wei until this time, they can still talk and laugh, and they are also a lot more relieved, coupled with the money beauty NV and the aura created by Hu Wei at this time, the blood is also ignited!
"Not afraid, we are not afraid. Let those damn ones come, and see how I pinch them to death!"
Seeing that the morale had been boosted, Hu Wei secretly pulled over Jebe and said, "Gullit is menacing this time, and the existing forces alone are not enough to win this battle." You take my order arrow, go to Zhu Daneng immediately, and let Zhu Daneng bring the independent regiment to help!"
Don't worry and said, "But your safety, young marshal......"
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. You're going to go back quickly!"
"Yes!"
Zhebei took Hu Wei's order, took two cronies, and left in a hurry!
In the middle of the day, Gullit led people to the town of Pinghe, and in a ring shape, the town was semi-encircled, only by the river, because of the terrain, he did not deploy troops.
Gullit was a veteran general, and he did not attack the city as soon as the army arrived, but patiently observed this inconspicuous Xiǎo town again.
"Hu Wei, are you going to rely on this peaceful town of xiǎoxiǎo to fight me in a decisive battle? Hmph!"
When Huang Y-Nyang was in Hehong Town before, he would only pull a cow, lead a pig or something, and do urban management work, the enemy was mainly ordinary people, when the Immortal Bird Legion entered Hehong Town, he immediately surrendered when he saw a bad opportunity, how could he have seen this kind of large army of operations. The soldier is not afraid of death, he is afraid. found an opportunity, slipped to Hu Wei's side, and said: "Young marshal, I'm a pacifist, now that Guli is powerful, I think we might as well surrender, so as not to lose our lives!"
Hu Wei smiled and said, "Okay, why don't we send you to negotiate the conditions?"
Huang Y-n's face changed greatly, and he shook his hand again and again: "No, no, I don't read much and can't speak, I can't do this!"
Hu Wei glared at him and said, "If you can't do it, let me go to the side, and let me hear something like that, I'll twist your head and hang it on the wall as a ni-o pot!"
Huang Y-N Yang was so frightened that Ni-O was about to come down, turned around and quickly slipped away.
Hu Wei shook his head and said: "It's really a kind of rice to raise a hundred kinds of people, if it weren't for the fact that this birdman is still a little useful, I have to throw him to the city." ”,
Xi M-ny-Feng on the side smiled and said: "When Xiǎo rats also have meritorious service, isn't this your aphorism?
Hu Wei shook his head: "Look forward to it." ”
The trumpets shook the sky, the victory flag was waved in the wind, and the simply trimmed Black Cross troops under the command of the huge Black Cross began their attack. It seems that they want to finish the war early and go home for the New Year.
Xu is in a hurry, the Black Cross Legion does not have heavy siege equipment, but hundreds of ladders are erected at the head of the city at the same time, which is still quite spectacular.
Hu Wei is still his usual combat style, commanding operations at the forefront. The soldiers of the 3,000 personal guard battalion played at this time
Huge combat power. The five-repeat crossbow in hand, dedicated to the m-n point sh-officer of the enemy, caused great damage to the command system of the enemy army. They were accustomed to fighting with the alien Jiāo, and at this time, they were extremely relaxed when facing the soldiers of the Black Cross Legion. You can't see a hint of panic on their faces.
Hu Wei also raised the Sun Changing Bow, specializing in killing the enemy's senior generals from a long distance. The people on Hu You's side may not feel that those who are hostile to him can deeply feel the horror of the golden arrow in Hu You's hands.
Because the killing distance of the Sun Changing Bow is much longer than the normal return. The generals of the Black Cross Legion forgot about Hu Wei's life-chasing arrows when they hit them, and when they recalled it, they were often reminded by the arrows that came from sh-into their bodies, and their lives were gone, and it was useless to know.
Xi m-ny-Feng and Hu Wei have a division of labor, Hu Wei is in charge of the long-range, and she is in charge of the short-range. At this time, she was leading people to guard the wall, what kind of oil, rolling wood, bricks and other things, as if they didn't want money. smashed the soldiers of the Black Cross so that their heads were bleeding and their eyes were stitched.
If any of the enemies were lucky enough not to be hit, but climbed up the ladder, they stabbed them with their guns. In the beginning, inexperienced soldiers, stabbing people to the dead. But after that, I got used to it by poking and stabbing.
Huang Y-Nyang may be regarded as one of the busiest people on the city wall, he is busier than Hu Wei and Xi M-ny-Fengdu. Those who shouted ran from one end to the other, and from that end to this end. He felt that he was not safe anywhere, but he did not dare to run down the city wall, it was really hard for him.
Dropping more than 5,000 corpses, the Black Cross stopped its first attack. The sound of gold sounded, and the enemy walked most of the way at once as if they were retreating. If you look closely, you will find that many soldiers have long exhaled when they hear the sound of gold. Before, they didn't look down on this Xiǎoxiǎo Hehong Town, but now they found that this Hehong Town was a giant winch r-u machine, harvesting bright red lives.
"Ah, young marshal, you're injured!" Huang Y-nyang didn't know where to jump out, and suddenly saw Hu Wei's left shoulder, which was pulled open.
"It's fine, just a little bit of skin. Hu Wei glanced at Huang Y-Nyang, who was not stained with even a drop of blood on his body, and said, "Your observation is good!"
Huang Y-N Yang said proudly: "Then it goes without saying, you don't go to inquire about who I am Huang Y-N Yang." It's not me who blows, if you lead the cow to me, I will be able to calculate how much the cow is worth and how much tax it will cost!"
Hu Wei smiled and said, "This skill is good." I see that you also have a set of ways to avoid danger, so I will give you a task. ”
As soon as Huang Y-N Yang heard the task, his face immediately became bitter, now is wartime, any task is to play with his life. But he didn't dare to refuse Hu Wei, so he could only reluctantly say: "The young marshal has a life, and the last general will definitely go to the soup and die!"
Hu Wei waved his hand and said, "It's not so strict, for you, it's just a thing." There should still be a lot of arrows in this battle, and there are not a lot of arrows in the army, and now that the enemy has temporarily retreated, you can take people down and collect some arrows and come back!"
Huang Y-n Yang asked weakly, "Can I say no?"
Hu worried's face was flat: "Yes, just leave your head!"
"Well, I'd better go. Huang Y-nyang said to run quickly, for fear that if he ran slower, his head would be gone.
Seeing him like that, Hu Wei couldn't help but laugh.
"You seem to like this' birdman-ny-phoenix asked on the side.
Hu Wei stopped laughing and said: "This is a guy with luck, when the two armies were fighting just now, this xiǎo zi ran around, and the danger was higher than standing still five times more, but he didn't stick to it at all, hehe, keep it and see." Maybe it can really be useful!"
In a single day, Gullitt launched seven attacks on the town of Pinghe, and in each interval between the battles of Jiāo, Hu Wei forced Huang Y-Nyang to lead people to collect arrows. Gradually, he discovered a phenomenon of Youyue, although Huang Y-N Yang Guts dared to go farther away to collect arrows, and he had never encountered the kind of enemy who was shrugged by an arrow, but did not die completely. What's even more interesting is that every time Huang Y-Nyang starts to run back, that is, when Gullit's troops launch another attack. ,
Summing up this characteristic, Hu Wei himself couldn't help but secretly speak, this is also amazing, it can almost be used as a 'war preserver'.
After a day of siege warfare, the soldiers gradually adapted to the course of the war. The next day, Gullit's attack intensified, but he couldn't help the peaceful town of Xiǎoxiǎo.
On this day, it was the fourth day of the war, the enemy was repulsed again, Hu Wei just wanted to ask Huang Y-N Yang to collect arrows, but he didn't know where to get out, and said to Hu Wei: "Young marshal, I always feel panicked, it seems that something is going to happen." ”
"Huh?" Hu Wei looked at Huang Y-Nyang, if a few days ago, he wouldn't have cared about Huang Y-Nyang's words, all people who are afraid of death, it is normal for them to say such things.
But after a few days of observation, Hu Wei has a considerable understanding of Huang Y-Nyang's ability to predict danger. Maybe Huang Y-nyang himself didn't know, but Hu Wei saw it very clearly, this xiǎo son was born with an instinct to avoid danger.
Huang Y-Nyang was a little frightened by Hu Wei, and Nuo Nuo said, "I'm ...... What I'm saying is true, in fact, this feeling has been there since I woke up this morning. ”
Hu Wei suddenly asked, "Where do you think the danger comes from?"
Huang Y-nyang said with a sad face: "I don't know, it seems to be under my feet." I always feel like my feet are soft!"
"Underfoot...... Underground, is it an tunnel!" Hu Wei muttered a few words, shook violently, and shouted: "Come on, immediately investigate the place in the city where a tunnel may be excavated, quickly, if you find anything, come and report it immediately!"
About twenty minutes later, a soldier hurriedly came to report: "Young marshal, there is a discovery." Someone in Xicheng is digging a secret passage, trying to lead the water of the Kyushu River into the city!"
Even Hu Wei almost sat on the ground when he heard this report. Gullit's trick is really poisonous. Once he succeeds in diverting the water of the Kyushu River to pour into Pinghe Town, this Pinghe Town will instantly become Zeguo, with more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians in this town...... The consequences are unimaginable!
Hu Wei really wanted to hug Huang Y-N Yang and kiss him at this time, he really made a great contribution this time!
He's not a birdman, he's an angel!
Hu Wei calmed down and ordered: "Do your best to stop it at any cost, you must not let them succeed!"
"Let me go!" "West m-ny-phoenix picked up the phoenix gun.
"Okay, xiǎo heart!"
