Chapter 59: An Impatient Heart
Since it was the first time for me to participate in such a large-scale mission, and it was the first time to ride this kind of ultra-high-speed assault boat, the tension, excitement, excitement, and apprehension in my heart made me feel dizzy and nauseous, sweating for a while, my hands and feet were cold, and the low-salt water in the marching kettle made me drink clean. In the end, there was really no choice, so I had to take the kettle that Chen Da Ke and Wang had summoned to barely suppress this feeling.
It caused the two of them to laugh out loud, and in the face of their ridicule, I turned a blind eye, thinking that I could get to the other side sooner and be detached. If you were to be given a mirror now, the face reflected in it would be green. Fortunately, the subordinates assigned to me by Uncle Da were all on the assault boat behind, so they didn't let them see my declining appearance. Although the official is not big, and it is temporary, I already have a feeling of being above others in my heart, and I have always thought that if I show cowardice in front of my subordinates, I will not be convinced in the future, let alone be respected. If it weren't for vanity, I wouldn't have been pretending to be nothing, isn't this a self-inflicted performance!
Turning his head to look at the assault boat next to him, Zhao Jinhai stepped on the bow of the boat with one foot, pressed his body forward on his knees, held the moon-gazing silver spear in one hand, and stared ahead without squinting. On the other side is Song Qing's assault boat, and his state is the same as Zhao Jinhai. Behind us is a boundless army, galloping forward, above the sea like a pot of dumpling soup, and the lightning-like speedboats are like steaming dumplings. This scene is inaccurate if it is expressed in words such as huge, majestic, and shocking, but I can't find the right words for a while. All in all, the blood in everyone's hearts boiled like the surface of the sea, and even worse, they even raised the weapons in their hands and shouted.
When I got to the shore, I was relieved, and I finally got rid of the discomfort and turned back into that high-spirited young man. According to what Uncle Da said before, it took less than ten minutes to assemble all the teams after landing on the island, and Uncle Da gave an order, which was regarded as blowing the horn of attack.
The attacking team and route were carried out exactly according to the original plan, and there was no deviation in the slightest. But there was one thing that puzzled me very much, I found that many people with weapons ran out of the private houses, and they were all wearing the official uniforms of Wudetang. Slowing down a little, he ran with Liu Jiuri, who was closest to me, and asked him, "Brother Liu, I saw many of our people running out of the house to join us, what is the situation?"
Liu Jiuri said while running: "It's normal for you to not know, when you were resting at home, Uncle Da specially discussed the issue of personnel transportation with me, because the temporary increase in manpower is too much, and I am afraid that the people from Zhenxingtang will find out if they all set off on the same day." And there is another main reason, after the brothers who patrol the outlying islands came back, they told us that there are many left-behind children and empty nesters in the residential areas of our main battlefield, and if there is a fight, I am afraid that they will be injured. After thinking about it, it was finally decided to evacuate all the residents around the battlefield, but in order not to make the people of Zhenxingtang suspicious, let these brothers who were temporarily sent to disguise themselves as residents. In this way, it not only solves the problem of accidentally injuring the people, but also solves the problem of too many people and is difficult to transport, which is a clever plan to kill two birds with one stone. Moreover, judging from the news that came back in the past few days, the people in Zhenxingtang did not have the slightest suspicion. Liu Jiuri stopped talking at this, carefully looked at the direction in front of him, and then said to me: "Okay, let's stop here for small talk, we are about to reach the first stronghold, remember what I told Erlang to you, don't be reckless in everything." Once you're ready to take on the enemy and rush past the first stronghold, the three of you will withdraw your team and move freely, leaving it up to you where you want to support. ”
Before the words fell, I heard someone shouting at the door of the stronghold in front of me: "Who is it, if you dare to break into the station of the Star Hall in the town at night, you will not be afraid of ......."
Before the man could finish speaking, his body was pierced by two swords at the same time, and the two swordsmen turned one to the left and the other to the right, and with a little force, the person who shouted was killed, and then the battle was about to break out.
This first stronghold can be described as extremely tragic, our mighty army of nearly 10,000 people rushed in together in a devouring posture, and in an instant the garrison of the original stronghold was buried in the crowd. The team entered through the front door and quickly rushed out through the back door, directly catching them off guard. In the end, Song Qing's troops were left to clean up the mess, and the others continued to advance to the agreed place.
I, Chen Dake, and Wang Zhaozhao separated the large army with a total of more than 150 people from their respective subordinates. Finding a small hill nearby to observe the movement of the large army, Wang Zhaozhao stepped forward, looked at the crowd fighting below and said to me: "I regret it a little, I shouldn't have agreed to the errand given by Uncle Da, I should have encircled and suppressed Zhenxingtang with them in the attacking team." If all of them are fine, won't the three of us become decorations, let alone make a name for themselves, and even the opportunity to make a name for themselves will not appear. ”
Looking at his relatively depressed expression, I burst into laughter: "Go to the call, are you stupid, didn't you understand what Uncle Da and Zhao Jinhai said? Didn't they let us support at will? Even if they are very smooth in every aspect, when it is time for us to appear, we still have to appear." When the time comes, just find three places to join the battle directly, don't we have what we want, although it is the minimum standard, but can it be different to meet what you want. ”
"Really, I think you just don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings, such a good errand, others can't even ask for it. What a big advantage we have to take advantage of, and it's good if others don't say that the three of us came in through the back door. You're good, you're still very dissatisfied!" Chen Dake scolded him a few words on the side.
After listening to the two of us, Wang Zhaozhao retorted vigorously: "Aren't I also thinking about our brothers, we all came to fight together, and you two are not greedy when you see other people's great achievements and great achievements?"
"Don't be greedy!" I replied in unison with Chen Dake. Then Chen Dake continued: "We understand your feelings now, and we don't want to get ahead as soon as possible." But the development of things always requires a process, and nothing can be fattened in one bite. Don't worry, we're not afraid of being late, and we won't suffer if we wait. ”
I patted him on the shoulder and said, "That's right, Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his color remained unchanged, which is the model of kings, if everyone is as anxious as you, there will not be so many kings." It's actually pretty good to look at it first, and the pros outweigh the cons. Let's first get a clear understanding of the cultists, so that we can prescribe the right medicine, and in this way, we will definitely be able to make a miraculous feat. Maybe Uncle Da will praise us for being very capable of leaders, and it's impossible to say if we can't be a grassroots cadre. ”
Under the joint persuasion of Chen Dake and me, the frizzy Wang was finally suppressed. The three of us stood on the hillside and looked down, judging the character of the people below as if we were watching a play. When the three of us watched with relish, a soldier came up behind us: "My lord, although the terrain here is high, we can't see the changes in the situation of all the troops. Just now, my subordinates surveyed the terrain of this place without authorization, and there is an abandoned lookout platform to the east of us. There is a large open space under the stage, which is enough for us to arm. Moreover, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and cultists do not dare to attack it. That lookout, which is very close to the general attack force, and not far from the Tingxiangge army, is our natural fortification. ”
Unexpectedly, not only did Wang Zhaozhao not be able to bear it, but even these soldiers began to move. Although this person acted without authorization, it was not a dangerous thing, and I did not hold him responsible. On the contrary, I listened to what he said, and I was moved, and nodded and told him to go down and be ready to march into the lookout. After he left, I said to the two of them, "I think this method is good, just now the man said that there is an abandoned lookout, I have an impression, the last time I came here to explore, I saw it, just now he reminded me to remember." After glancing at the two of them, he pondered for a moment and asked, "I don't think there's a problem, what do you think?"
Wang Zhaozhao was still hesitating, and Chen Dake replied without thinking: "If you think it is feasible, then it must be feasible, as long as you give an order, we will immediately rush to kill it." What's more, on the way, we can also take the opportunity to try our skills and save the brothers from looking at it. ”
Chen Da can be regarded as thinking of going with me, and so is my idea, I can take the opportunity of transferring troops to let these people who are ready to move be released. Everyone else was fine, but I was only worried that the king would not obey the command when he left the church, so I pulled him closer and said to him very solemnly: "Go to the call, I am most worried about you, let's move this time, we must not fall in love with the enemy on the way, tear the mouth and continue to advance." I'm not afraid that you're in the middle of it, I'm afraid that your brothers below you don't want them to leave their lives here because of your fault. If that really happens, how will you explain to Uncle Da? How will you deal with the families of these brothers? As an official, you must consider all aspects and never act rashly. If I understand that, I'm about to give the order to transfer. ”
Wang Zhaozhao held the three-section coiling dragon stick in his hand, and replied excitedly: "Don't worry, I will definitely protect the lives of my brothers, and none of them can die with me." Hurry up and give the order, I can't wait. ”
Today I seem to have dedicated many firsts to this war, and for the first time I have given orders to so many people, my throat is somewhat tight. He coughed lightly and said to them: "There is a lookout on the east side, and the place under the platform is spacious enough, as long as we rush over, we can better observe the situation of the combat team, so that reinforcements can be carried out at any time, without dragging mud and water." This transfer must not be in love, and it must be rushed over in the fastest time. Do you understand?"
"Got it!"
"Brothers, follow me!"
