Chapter 2: The Battle of Wei and Song (2)
Song, Shenwu 18 years.
Wei, Xuanwei for seven years.
Twenty-two of the lunar month.
The heavy snow of three days ago quietly stopped, and the morning sky seemed to be washed away, clean and blue. As far as the eye can see, everything is covered in silver, and the sky is vast. Although the weather was cold, it was somewhat refreshing. The long marching procession moved slowly on the white earth, like a long snake and a python. Wu Xiu's black armor battalion was in the rear of the cavalry, at the neck of this giant python.
By the service, they are just infantry. On the battlefield, they follow their offensive and defensive positions, looking at each other. It was also difficult for ordinary cavalry to disperse them, and in the Wei army's previous military exercises, the top five-man group of the Black Armor Battalion could repel sixty ordinary infantry, and the cavalry was thirty horsemen. This is not only the reason why their martial arts are relatively superb, but also the factor of skillful cooperation with each other.
Black armor and black armor, looking extremely heavy, in fact, lighter than the armor of those light cavalry, this is only the black armor battalion soldiers are qualified to wear the crystal armor, is the dark iron is tempered thousands of times, the best black iron is often the first-class material for forging divine weapons, the black iron itself is heavy, after thousands of tempering will form iron crystals. Iron Crystal is light and extremely hard, and the Iron Crystal is made of black iron nails and chains connected together to make this armor.
To make this kind of Xuanjing armor, Duan Tianya, the commander of the black armor battalion, searched all over the craftsmen of the Wei State, because ordinary craftsmen could not find the fire they needed to burn it red, not to mention forging, and finally it was the teacher of the King of Wei, Wen Ruo, who found the Longhu Villa in the northwest of Wei as a mountain man.
At first, Dragon Tiger Villa refused to do so, citing the inconvenience of participating in Yamashita affairs, but in the end, it introduced a Yamashita craftsman. The craftsman once practiced in Longhu Villa, and worked as a partner in the forge while practicing, but then his mother fell seriously ill and went down the mountain, and a few years later he repaired his book to Longhu Villa, saying that he had a family to take care of, and since then he has ended his practice.
In the mountain sect, the disciple who left the sect without permission was to be punished, and he would die, or he would be ruined for his cultivation, and for this matter, Longhu Villa also sent someone down the mountain to find and investigate, but that person really opened a blacksmith shop in his hometown, made some farm tools for local farmers, and took care of his father and disabled eldest brother at home, and his local reputation is also very good, good at helping others, being kind to others, and did not rely on his own little cultivation to be a blessing, and the elders who looked for him just broke one of his arms, which was regarded as letting him goγ Duan Tianya found this person, he didn't agree at first, Duan Tianya immediately took out a letter from his master, and the blacksmith cried bitterly at first, and then took over the matter
However, the production of Xuanjing armor was extremely slow, although that person recruited apprentices extensively, and even Duan Tianya transferred two thousand craftsmen from the Great Wei Military Department, only more than six thousand pairs were produced in ten years. The Xuanjing Crystal made of Xuanjian Iron is extremely expensive, and there was once an unruly soldier of the Black Armor Battalion who secretly took the Xuanjing Armor to the black market to sell it, and was later discovered by Duan Tianya, and the person was beheaded in front of all the soldiers of the Black Armor Battalion. Since then, there have been regulations in the Black Armor Camp that anyone who loses the Xuanjing Armor will be exiled, and those who sell it privately will be beheaded.
There is a saying in the Wei army that '6,000 black armor battalions have been raised, and 100,000 ordinary soldiers have suffered', which shows that what he said is very correct.
The soldiers of the Black Armor Battalion all wear Xuanjing armor, which is the rule, but when it comes to weapons, they are very casual. In the words of Commander Duan Tianya, if your second child can kill people, you can also take him out and use it. Therefore, in addition to the Xuanjing armor on their bodies, the soldiers of the black armor battalion used a variety of weapons, and even one soldier used a hoe, and even more so, they were not used to using weapons, only a pair of fists.
The Wei army has a standard weapon, that is, the knife, called the Wei knife, the knife is light, the arc is slightly larger, the sharpness is incomparable, if it falls into the mountains and rivers and lakes, it is a sharp weapon, the Wei knife is famous on the battlefield, and the soldiers of the black armor battalion also have a lot of Wei knives, such as Huang Er, who was born as a crop man.
Wu Xiu, carrying a silver spear behind him, the blade of the spear was overflowing with cold light, and the body of the spear was as white as snow, this was his trophy, and its previous owner was the son of the King of Shu, Xiong Mi. The name of the gun, Han Xue, is a god soldier under the mountain, and even the origin of this gun is related to the mountain sect, but the others are just red-eyed, and Wu Xiu has become its new owner. None of this is important, the important thing is that compared to Wei Dao, it makes Wu Xiu feel more handy and kills faster.
At the end of the hour, the procession slowly stopped, stopped at the foot of the mountain on the vast plain, the sun was rising, the sun was very mild, there was a herald holding a red flag, riding a fast horse galloping past the side of the army, repeatedly shouted: "The king of Wei has an order, rest in place!"
Everyone looked up, basking in the warm sun, gentle, not harsh, and then everyone began to close their eyes and enjoy the moment of tranquility.
This is the breath of life.
But who knows if tomorrow's sunshine will still be so warm and warm?
Wu Xiu didn't know, he just watched until his eyes were sore and painful, until tears flowed. He took off the black rope tied to the cold snow and tied it under the blade of the gun, and then looked back at Han Donglai, Cao Jiabao, Huang Er and Ping'er behind him, looking at each of them with his teary eyes, and smiled slightly.
The drums sounded, everyone sorted out their armor, everyone began to draw their swords, and the snow-white blades began to come to life in the sun, with bloodthirsty life. The cavalry began to charge, the drums were beating, the shouts were loud, and the deafening was deafening, and how many people could witness this magnificent scene? 100,000 heavy cavalry charged with spears, the scene was spectacular, and the Song army had only a lot more heavy cavalry. Then there were 200,000 light cavalry, flanking and outflanking, which was the simplest tactic and the most practical tactic.
Duan Tianya drew his sword and was silent, raising the knife high, and the six thousand soldiers of the Black Armor Battalion behind him also raised their weapons, and all kinds of weapons made the scene not good. It will take a while for the heavy cavalry to chisel the formation, and they are waiting. Wu Xiu was already standing at the back of the five-person team, Cao Jiabao was in front, Huang Er in the middle, Ping'er and Han Donglai, and when they entered the battlefield, they would be distributed in a diamond shape, with Han Jiabao on the top, Huang Er on the left, Han Donglai on the right, Wu Xiu in the back, and Ping'er in the middle, who was good at fighting. Han Jiabao made the iron shovel, extremely heavy, Ping'er had tried, but he couldn't pick it up with both hands, he patted the black shield in his left hand with the shovel, and made a trampling sound, "Don't die, say okay, I should come out of the flower wine next time, and I won't be able to drink it if I die!"
Han Donglai is holding a long sword, it is really a long sword, and his figure is quite similar, the sword is slender, the tip of the sword is narrower and sharper than other swords, according to him, this is the only family property he did not sell, born in the nobility, when he was a child, his father also invited a few swordsmanship masters to teach him to make a sword, and swordsmanship is also reasonable. Han Donglai shook a sword flower, and said with an evil smile: "Don't worry, even if you die, the money for drinking flower wine will have to be revealed." β
Cao Jiabao was about to scold, Ping'er jumped up and knocked Cao Jiabao's head with a double blade, which scared the stupid Cao Jiabao, and was about to scold, but Ping'er said: "Stupid big one! I heard that you have found a daughter-in-law at home, if you die, it will be mine, okay, I guarantee that the first child will be your surname Cao!"
Huang Er was standing behind Cao Jiabao, Cao Jiabao was more than two heads taller than him, like a mountain in front of him, he grinned when he was usually silent, and suddenly said sullenly: "I actually have a daughter." β
Everyone looked at him, even Wu Xiu was no exception, Han Donglai looked over with wide eyes, ", the sun is coming out of the west, what are you talking about?"
Ping'er heard it clearly, but said: "Lao Huang said that he has a daughter, who happens to be the same age as me, so let me not rob Cao Jiabao of his daughter-in-law." β
Huang Er continued to sullenly and said, "She's not in good health. β
Ping'er smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay." Women are meant to be used for pain, I promise to treat her well in the future, and I won't let her do any heavy work, and I promise that from today onwards I will learn cooking skills from the second child, and I will take care of the cooking, washing dishes, washing clothes and so on at home in the future!"
Han Donglai held back a glance at Ping'er, "Cut! Just your lazy nature, let alone laundry and cooking, even has to be wiped for you!"
Ping'er was about to refute, but Huang Er said sullenly: "She is blind." β
And all men stopped talking, looking at the heavens, looking at the earth, and looking at the palms of their hands.
In short, a little awkward.
It's just that Huang Er is still grinning.
"The Black Armor Battalion obeys the order!
The herald galloped over again, Duan Tianya pointed ahead with his knife, and then the team slowly moved forward and began to slowly disperse, the formation of five people was different, but most of them were diamond-shaped. Wu Xiu held the gun in his back and dragged the gun away, silent.
The battle to the death begins.
Cao Jiabao knocked on the black shield and shouted, "Compare with one, who kills more!"
Entering the battlefield, the oncoming cavalry, Cao Jiabao, who was standing in front of the team, smashed the war horse with a heavy black shield, the war horse screamed, turned over, Cao Jiabao grinned, and hit the head of the fallen soldier, and blood splashed in an instant. Seeing Cao Jiabao so fierce and cruel, the remaining two horses who rushed over hurriedly stopped the horses, and slid forward a full five meters, the two horses were also experienced in a hundred battles, the frontal surprise attack could not be successful, the troops were divided into left and right, and attacked to both sides, Huang Er on the left was short, and the sharp Wei knife cut off the horse's hooves, and the man rolled to the ground, Wu Xiu stabbed his throat with a spear with lightning speed, and pulled it out like lightning, blood spurted out, the spear was cold and snowy, and the blood was sprinkled on Huang Er's face, Huang Er was a spirit, and even his expression changed a little, his eyes instantly turned red, like a bloodthirsty devil, and he immediately stepped forward to make up for itγ Han Dong looked at the rushing horse, sneering gloomily, he clicked on the ground with one foot, a dive, before he rode that time, he turned sideways, the long sword was long and narrow, and the sharp blade was elusive like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, stabbing the person's artery, that person and a ride, the momentum did not stop, but the blood was spraying around on the horse, Han Dong looked back and said with a smile: "Old Five, play with you." β
Ping'er grinned, jumped up, and stabbed the man's neck with both blades, and then the man fell off the horse, and when he was dying, he looked at Ping'er in horror, as if he couldn't believe that he was dead like this.
Then, there were a lot of people and horses coming, there were cavalry, there were infantry, Cao Jiabao fought with force, often people and horses were knocked into the vertigo, Han Donglai's sword moves were unpredictable, his body flickered and moved, like a dancing girl dancing, the vicious sword moves were all stabbing other people's necks and armor not covered by the armor, Huang Er relied on the Xuanjing armor to be extremely hard, others cut at him and did not dodge, with his oblique knife chopping wood knife tirelessly cut down, the enemies in front of him were often either dead or wounded, Wu Xiu was behind the team, the spear quickly came out left and right, like a poisonous snake foraging, a blow must hit, Ping'er always fought around, and would retreat when he saw a lot of people, Retreat to the side of his relatively relaxed teammates, he is extremely fast, it is said that his mother's Jianghu good friend taught him a martial arts, he is good at wrapping around the back with an extremely strange posture, giving people a fatal blow.
The battle continued, the cavalry withdrew from the main battlefield to begin to rest and regroup, and the black armor battalion entered the core battlefield, followed by the ordinary infantry. The same is true of the Great Song. However, in terms of numbers, the Song army always had the advantage, and from a high place, the Great Song soldiers poured into the battlefield like a flood wave. The Song army was mostly infantry before, and after the battle with the Wei army, it gradually developed the tactics of using cavalry as the offensive vanguard, so the Song army was not weak, at least the infantry was not weak.
Killing people on the battlefield is always a time when the strength is exhausted.
The black armor battalion began to be damaged, Huang Er's right hand fingers were broken three, and he began to wave the knife in one hand, Ping'er's speed began to decline, Cao Jiabao was still standing in front of the team, the Xuanjing armor knife on his body was densely marked, but he still rushed left and right to ensure the defense of the team, Han Donglai's long sword was already stained with blood, and the hand holding the sword was scarred, Wu Xiu was not injured, at the moment, he was mainly on the left side, helping Huang Er block the enemy's offensive.
Duan Tianya always walked leisurely, just silently took out the knife and silently wiped the blood that covered his eyes.
It was past noon, the sun was beginning to set to the west, and the Black Armor Battalion had lost more than a thousand men. It has been 10 years since the establishment of the camp, and it has gone through more than 100 wars, large and small, and no war has suffered such losses as today. However, the infantry, led by the black armor battalion, advanced the battlefield for ten miles, resisting the Song army's attacks again and again.
King Wei saw it really, he had charged three times in a row with the cavalry, at this moment he was on the war horse, looking at the black armor battalion at the head of the formation, and laughed: "In this battle, the black armor battalion should be the first merit! The guards battalion listened to the order, followed me to charge the left side, and the rest of the rest of the cavalry rushed to the right, we took over the battlefield and let the black armor battalion breathe for a while!"
"Yes!"
After all, Han Tong, the general of the Song Kingdom, was old and did not go to the battlefield in person, but sat on horseback and looked over: "The cavalry is facing the battle!"
The battlefield was once again taken over by the cavalry, and the black-armored battalion retreated and began to rest on the battlefield full of corpses, bandaging what should be bandaged, gasping for breath. Wu Xiu removed his shirt and bandaged Huang Er's fingers, "Is it okay?"
The silent Huang Er's face was a little pale, and he just nodded.
Ping'er was also injured, he was stabbed in the right shoulder, there was a Xuanjing armor body, the wound was not deep, but it affected the blade in his right hand, he took off his shirt, Han Dong came to bandage him, he laughed miserably: "Don't say anything to anyone, I can't die for the time being, if I go back, it's better to let me die!"
Wu Xiu took a sip of water and looked at the battlefield in the distance, "Let's rest, the next thing is to fight to the death." β
Cao Jiabao gulped down the water and gasped, "Damn, if I can eat a meal of beef now, I can still kill him for three hundred rounds!"
Duan Tianya stood up in front of the team, looked back at the resting Black Armor Battalion, bowed down and clenched his fists at everyone, and said, "Duan Mou has thanked you!"
Some of the badly wounded soldiers began to retreat, but most chose to continue fighting, such as Ping'er and Huang Er.
When Shen, the cavalry also began to retreat, the battlefield fell into a deathly silence, the Wei and Song sides began to rest very tacitly, Han Donglai Ping'er and Huang Er's wounds were sprinkled with medicine, the blood gradually stopped, and the pain was relieved.
These drugs that temporarily stop bleeding and analgesic can allow them to continue to maintain their combat effectiveness.
The setting sun was like blood, and the light sprinkled on the earth, as if a gorgeous golden quilt had been laid on the dead soldiers.
The moon is coming, and the battle begins.
This time it was still the head of the black armor battalion, and Duan Tianya walked slowly ahead. The five thousand black-armored battalions behind him were silent, and they looked ahead, looking at death as if they were at home, and they were murderous. No one looked back, just drew their swords and walked forward generously.
Han Tong squinted, his eyes were a little complicated, "What a black armor battalion. The infantry commander obeyed the order and transferred the feather guard battalion!"
Song Junyu guarded the battalion, carrying a long bow and quiver, with only ten arrows per person, and a narrow knife hanging from his waist, which could attack from a distance and fight in close combat.
The Wei army's black armor battalion walked forward silently, and the Song army's Yuwei battalion lined up with bows and arrows, waiting for the black armor battalion to enter the firing range.
"Formation!" Duan Tianya shouted, and the Black Armor Battalion stepped forward with a shield soldier, and Cao Jiabao was also among them.
The commander of the Yuwei battalion is a man with a bearded face, he bends his bow and arrows in front, his eyes are hot, the Yuwei battalion also belongs to the kind of military camp that performs special tasks in the Song army, compared to the black armor battalion of the Wei army, the Yuwei battalion is not so thunderous. The Yuwei battalion had already asked for a battle but was suppressed by Han Tong, and at this moment it was finally able to share life and death with the black armor battalion, which made all the members of the Yuwei battalion excited, and even the hand of the commander of the Yuwei battalion who drew the bow trembled a little, and he said in a deep voice: "They are wearing Xuanjing armor, and they will be released within a hundred steps!" A soldier next to him reminded in a low voice: "General Guan, but in this way, we can only shoot two rounds." β
Guan Qingshan, the commander of the Song Junyu Guard Battalion, is not the kind of general, sitting in today's position, relying on the scar marks on his body and the blood that has flowed, he can't compare to Duan Tianya in terms of background, and he can't compare to the Black Armor Battalion in terms of combat merits. Guan Qingshan was born in a humble and humble background, Duan Tianya was born in a prominent and noble background, they are both in high positions through their own efforts, the former often has an indescribable feeling for the latter, envy or even jealousy, love or hate, but there will always be a question: You can eat and wear without worry, you can be carefree, why don't you obediently be your son-in-law, but you have to work so hard?
Who knows? Duan Tianya is a person with strange ideas, in his life, he can obviously rely on his studies and family power to make a big difference in officialdom, even if he can't rank in the third duke, but he just hung his head on his belt and went to the battlefield, but he made countless military exploits, and what is even more annoying is that he didn't die.
This made Guan Qingshan, the commander of the Yuwei Battalion, his eyes a little red, and he spat out, "Release!"
Ten thousand arrows broke through the wind, whistling and hissing. All the soldiers of the Black Armor Battalion took it together, and occasionally one or two passed through the gap and shot at the Xuanjing armor of those soldiers behind the shield, and the Yuwei Battalion really lived up to its name, although it could not shoot through the Xuanjing armor, but it was extremely strong, making people staggered back, and even fell, and the position of the arrow was immediately painful. After receiving 10,000 arrows, another 10,000, more than a dozen soldiers of the black-armored battalion had fallen to the ground with arrows.
Duan Tianya roared: "Rush!"
The Black Armor Battalion began to disperse, and the Yuwei Battalion drew its sword to meet it. 5,000 Black Armor Battalions against 10,000 Guard Battalions.
Fierce battle, until the bright moon is in the sky.
"Boss, how is it?" Han Donglai held Wu Xiu's shoulder, Wu Xiu's leg was injured and bleeding, "I'm fine, go see the fourth." β
Huang Er completely lost his combat effectiveness, lying on the ground, his helmet was gone, and the slanted knife marks on his face were deep to the bone, and now he was at the end of his crossbow, and he was in danger. Ping'er was always by Huang Er's side and was reluctant to leave, hysterically waving his twin blades to prevent the enemy from mending his sword.
"Fourth brother, get up, fourth brother, get up!"
Han Donglai attacked, Cao Jiabao also surrounded him, Wu Xiu also stepped forward, and the four of them surrounded Huang Er, Han Donglai shook his head and said, "The fourth is not good." β
With the last trace of strength, Huang Er stretched out his hand that had broken three fingers and grabbed Wu Xiu's leg, and tugged, as if he had something to say, Wu Xiu squatted down, looked at him with a bloody face, tore off a corner of his clothes, and wiped his eyes covered with blood.
Huang Er said hoarsely: "Boss, there are a few words I want to say. β
Wu Xiu put down the gun and held his hand, "Okay, you say." β
Huang Er struggled to sit up and said, "Boss, if there is still anyone alive in the brothers, please go to my hometown and kowtow to my mother for me." Don't say anything, just say that her doll walked peacefully. β
As he spoke, Huang Er suddenly smiled, just a little ugly, and he continued softly: "My daughter was picked up by her mother, although she is blind, she is very sensible and filial, and she is also good-looking! Boss, you are calm and introverted, you are a good candidate to live at home, the third child is honest and honest, and he has a good life with him, Ping'er, young and ignorant, but he is also a good person, it doesn't hurt to follow him, as long as you don't dislike her in the future, forget it, if the last time I drank flower wine, if it was true, I would really become a desperate account. With difficulty, he took out a silver bag from his arms and handed it to Wu Xiu, "I have never paid for flower wine over the years, this time I will invite my brothers to drink it." β
Wu Xiu took the silver bag and wiped Huang Er's eyes, which were already difficult to open, he knew that Huang Er would be difficult to live, "Fourth, brother, I have written down everything you said, no matter which of us is alive, I will do it." β
"Fourth brother, I can't talk on weekdays, why are there so many words today, don't always say some bad things, we can't die!" Ping'er wiped a handful of tears, "Fourth brother, don't die!"
Cao Jiabao was also seriously wounded, so that the hand of the gong could no longer be lifted, but he used the shield again and again to swing the blade, and again and again with the shield to smash the enemy, he turned around and shouted: "If I don't die, I will return the marriage when I go back!"
Han Donglai was also exhausted, and he was about to bend over and pant with a sword, "Don't shout, avenge the fourth child!"
Huang Er's smile was ugly, but he always grinned. Then he lay down softly, and lay down beside his brothers. He looked at the backs of his brothers, breathed a long sigh of relief, and slowly closed his eyes.
Huang died in World War II.
Wu Xiu put the heavy silver two bags into his arms, and stabbed a soldier of the Yuwei Battalion who came wielding a long knife, hitting the center of the man's eyebrows, and after drawing the gun, he said lightly: "I don't want to see any death today, but I also don't want to see anyone stealing a life!
The four of them looked at each other, and at this moment, only by killing people could they understand the thousand words in their hearts.
They began to fight on their own.
Wu Xiu dragged the bleeding injured leg and brandished the spear, with no moves to speak of.
Han Donglai was holding a long sword, the body of the sword was already full of dents, and his figure was already staggering.
Ping'er can only hold the blade in one hand, and the mad dog generally wields it left and right.
Cao Jiabao held a heavy shield and smashed it into the enemy frantically.
"Poof......" A mouthful of blood spurted out, Ping'er was stabbed through the waist with a knife, the man stabbed him, bared his teeth and rotated the blade back and forth, Ping'er trembled, and his painful face almost changed shape. But Ping'er's lips were always closed, and she didn't make a sound at all. The man was obviously crazy as well, and drew another knife.
Ping'er looked at the man lightly, stretched out the arm that was full of strength at the moment, and hugged him tightly, the man desperately broke free, but he couldn't break free, and then Ping'er smiled coldly, and stabbed the man's neck inch by inch with the short blade that was already full of scars.
Then they both fell to the ground, Ping'er calmly looked at the sky, and shouted "Mother......"
Ping'er died in battle.
The rest of the people couldn't pull away, and could only watch this scene silently. Cao Jiabao wept bitterly and was about to come to help Ping'er, but he was slashed in the arm by an enemy soldier, he looked back at the enemy soldier, and then hit the other party headlong and killed the other party.
Han Donglai was also at the end of his crossbow, and he couldn't reach it sideways, and his arm was cut off with a knife. Blood gushed out, his face was gloomy, obviously extremely painful, after the man succeeded, he was about to step forward and cut again, Han Donglai turned around, and the long sword in his left hand shook the man's neck, a small mark, but spurted blood like a spring.
Cao Jiabao was close to exhaustion, besieged by four people, two of them focused on him on the road, at this moment he was already half-kneeling, someone slashed at his back with a knife, except for the place covered by the Xuanjing armor, the rest of the place was already blurred with flesh and blood, he endured the pain and tried to get up, but his ankle was cut off, he bared his teeth and screamed, one turned around and threw the shield, smashing the man's face to pieces. The other three took advantage of this time, together with a knife to slash at Cao Jiabao's helmet, it was really Xuanjing armor, the three of their knives were broken together, but still did not stop, they stabbed Cao Jiabao's neck with a broken knife, Cao Jiabao shrank his chin, tried to get up, grabbed the neck of the two, raised it high, and threw it far away, the rest was not tall, the broken knife had been taken off, and he was about to pick up other weapons scattered on the ground, and Cao Jiabao kicked the door in the face, and he was killed. Cao Jiabao began to relax and pant at this time, the three broken knives on her neck had fallen, but three blood holes appeared in her neck, and then she was covered in blood He looked at Wu Xiu, who was still fighting, and Han Donglai, who had a broken arm. Han Donglai was besieged, and he was already certain to die, he rushed over, and rushed towards the person who slashed at Han Donglai, who was unable to move even with a knife and was pressed by the huge Cao Jiabao's body, so he had to swing a knife and slash indiscriminately. As soon as Cao Jiabao fell to the ground, he no longer had the strength to get up, so he had to bite the man's face with his teeth until his flesh and blood were blurred.
At this time, Wu Xiu also rushed over and knocked the other two people who besieged Han Donglai to the ground. Han Donglai laughed miserably, and finally lost the slightest combat power, he looked at Cao Jiabao who was struggling on the verge of death, "Third child, I really convinced you, really use your teeth?"
Cao Jiabao struggled to turn over and shouted proudly: "Boss, I killed twenty-seven." This time, I'm more than you, right?"
Wu Xiu nodded, "Well, more than me." β
Cao Jiabao gasped, "Go back and tell my father and mother, I didn't embarrass them." Tell my brother and tell him to study hard, and he will rely on him to glorify his ancestors in the future. β
Wu Xiu still just nodded, "If I don't die, I will do it." β
Han Donglai, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly began to cry, "It's all gone, it's all gone." Who else will drink flower wine with me in the future!"
Cao Jiabao finally closed his eyes.
Wu Xiu stood beside Han Donglai, trying not to let people get close to him, the spear was cold and snowy, it was still as white as snow, he had completely given up defense, and only relied on the Xuanjing armor to resist all attacks, but Rao is best armor in the world had also cracked.
Han Jiabao blinked his eyes faintly, looked at Wu Xiu, who was trying to protect him, and said stupidly: "Boss, you look so handsome wielding a spear, if only I were a woman." He picked up the broken arm, looked it up and down, and then held it in his arms, "It's a pity, I won't need a sword in the future." β
.........
Someone slashed Wu Xiu's left shoulder, Wu Xiu's eyebrows locked, the gun passed, the gun hit the man's head, the man fell to the ground instantly, someone stabbed Wu Xiu in the back, he turned gloomily, a shot pierced through the armor, stabbed into the man's chest, three people had already broken their weapons, they rushed over, holding Wu Xiu deadly, Wu Xiu stumbled, rotated the body of the gun, a long spear became two short guns, and both had the same blade. He held two guns in his hand, brutally stabbed the three people in the back, and just when Wu Xiu was breathing a little, a soldier of the Yuwei Battalion opened his bow and arrows, and an arrow pierced Wu Xiu's chest......
Wu Xiu eventually fell as well.
Han Donglai crawled to Wu Xiu's side and held his hand stiffly.
Both of them leaned over and gazed at the bright moon through the smoke of gunpowder.
Finally, at this time, at three o'clock, the Song army Mingjin withdrew his troops and retreated to the camp.
In this battle, 3,282 people were killed in the Black Armor Battalion, 913 were seriously wounded, and all the rest were slightly injured, and 7,329 people were killed in the Yuwei Battalion, 1,211 were seriously wounded, and all the remaining people were slightly injured. In this battle, the Wei army suffered 220,000 casualties, and the Song army suffered 470,000 casualties. In this battle, Duan Tianya was killed, and Guan Qingshan was seriously injured.
In this battle, the Wei army won a crushing victory.
At the end of the period, the king of Wei had an army of 200,000 and attacked the Song camp at night. General Han Tong had long expected that the two armies would fight again in front of the Song army's camp, and the Wei army would dig the formation step by step, the array was pressing, approaching the Song camp, and burning the Song army's company camp for 300 miles with fire, and the Song army retreated again and again, retreating to Qingyang City, which was only 300 miles away from the capital of the Song Kingdom, and the King of Wei took the general Gu Zhongzi as the general of the expedition to the east, and sent 200,000 troops, Gu Zhongzi besieged but did not attack, but continued to encroach on other territories of the Great Song Dynasty.
In the end, all the territories west of the Song Kingdom fell into the hands of the Great Wei.
At this point, the battle between Song and Wei came to an end.
Except for the 200,000 troops besieging Qingyang City, the rest of the men and horses were in the Wei camp.
Wu Xiu and Han Donglai also stayed in Wei to feed their injuries. Wu Xiu was seriously injured, but fortunately, the arrow did not pass through the vital point, and Han Donglai broke an arm, and he could no longer continue his military career.
Half a month later, Wu Xiu was already able to walk on the ground.
The New Year has passed, it is the fifteenth day of the first month, today the Wei camp is full of lights, singing and dancing everywhere, the king of Wei in order to reward the soldiers in the Wei camp, the best and most famous singers and dancers and music classes in the Wei camp are transferred to the Wei camp to celebrate the festival together. In the afternoon of this day, Wu Xiu and Han Donglai finished the military banquet and went for a walk at the foot of the mountain. Wu Xiu looked at Han Donglai's empty sleeve that had been severed from his arm, which was blown by the wind and swayed around, and asked, "What are your plans?"
Han Donglai laughed miserably, "What can I do, retire as a wounded soldier, if I can return to my hometown to revive the Han family, it would be the best." β
Wu Xiu nodded, "If you need it, I will help you." β
Han Donglai patted Wu Xiu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Boss Duan is dead, King Wei is selecting a suitable person to lead the Black Armor Battalion, and now that the Black Armor Battalion is killed or wounded, it is estimated that another group of people will be selected soon, I think Boss you have a great chance." β
Wu Xiu shook his head, "I'm not as good as General Duan, and I won't continue to mix in the army, there are still some things to do." β
Han Donglai spit out the weeds that had been chewing in his mouth for a long time, and nodded, "The third, fourth, and fifth also need you to take a trip, when to leave, I will be with you." β
Wu Xiu and Han Donglai walked to the open area on the mountainside where the King of Wei stayed that day, and said, "I will go to their hometown, and then leave the military camp and return to Fancheng's hometown. β
Han Donglai was a little surprised, and asked: "Just give up the splendid future? My Wei State has already occupied half of the land of the Song State, and even if there is a big war in the future, it will not be as tragic as a year ago, why don't you go and fight for it, it is also good to mix up an official and a half-position." β
Wu Xiu looked at the Wei army camp and the tragic battlefield, and sighed, "Things have to be done, and it's not appropriate for me to say it." β
"I can do it for the boss. Han Dong said.
"No, it's different. He looked back at Han Donglai and said, "When are you leaving?"
"Probably the day after tomorrow. β
"We're all in this together. β
"Hmm. β
"Before we go, let's go for a drink at the Flower Bar?"
"This relationship is good, when?"
"The day after tomorrow. β
"Then we'll just leave the day after tomorrow. β
"Good. β
Back in Wei Ying, Wu Xiu had nothing to do and went to change the medicine. Then he remembered that Duan Tianya asked him to find Wen Ruo.
In the evening, when the sun was like blood, there was a stage in the open space of the Wei camp, apparently prepared for the song and dance of the night, and many soldiers with crutches or supported by others began to assemble, and people whispered or spoke loudly, waiting for the opening of the good show, which was the treatment they deserved. Wu Xiu walked to Wen Ruo's camp, the king of Wei had already led the army back to his territory, and he was going to the capital in the near future to start accepting the throne and his enthronement ceremony, and now in the Wei camp, Wen Ruo was the supreme commander. Wen Ruo's tent was not too big, there were only two guards in front of the tent, Wu Xiu walked over and asked, "Lord Wen is in the tent?"
The guard looked at Wu Xiu and nodded, "Who are you? What official position do you have?" β
Wu Xiu hugged his fists and said, "I am the commander of the Black Armor Battalion, Wu Xiu." It's hard work. β
The two guards were stunned for a moment, and immediately began to solemnly matter, "General, I'll report later." β
Inside the big tent, Wen Ruogao sat on the main seat, looked at Wu Xiu, and asked, "That is the Wu Commander who made the silver spear cold and snowy?"
Wu Xiu nodded, "Yes." β
"Someone, serve tea, please take a seat. The guard soldier brought two cups of tea, and Wen Ruo said: "Drink it, this is the spring dew tea I have treasured for a long time." β
Wu Xiu thanked Wen Ruo and began to drink tea, and there was a hot breath in his chest after one sip, which was like a dragon, making Wu Xiu's face flushed, and he sweated a little after two mouthfuls, and then the qi and blood surged, and the wounds on his body began to itch, which was a good thing. Wu Xiu was always calm and asked, "General Duan told me before that he asked me to find Master Wen and say that there is something I need to do. β
Wen Ruo stroked his beard and smiled, but asked, "How many enemies have been killed on this battlefield?"
Wu Xiu replied: "Our five-person team killed a total of ninety-one enemies, and two survived. β
Wen Ruo stood up and clapped his fists high-five, "What a black armor battalion!
Wen Ruo looked at Wu Xiu, "Duan Tianya is right, you are a very suitable candidate." It's a pity that Duan Tianya is dead, if he doesn't die, the two of you will be foolproof if you two do it. β
Wu Xiu was confused, "Please make it clear to Master Wen." β
Wen Ruo shook his hand, "Don't worry, let's talk about how my Great Wei rewarded the Black Armor Battalion." β
Wu Xiu instantly thought of his brother and said, "I think that in addition to doubling the pension for those dead soldiers, their families and local officials should treat them well. Those soldiers who are injured and can no longer go to the battlefield, in addition to the reasonable positions arranged by the government, the rest of the government with families and rooms should be supported more. As for those soldiers who are lightly injured, they can be given a chance to compete for positions in other armies, after all, the soldiers who go out of the black armor battalion will naturally not be bad at leading the troops. β
Wen Ruo nodded, "It's okay, but if those people go back and rely on their military exploits to do evil, and the local government dares to be angry and dare not speak, how can it be good?"
Wu Xiu replied without thinking: "Act according to the law." β
Wen Ruo asked, "What about your own thoughts?"
Wu Xiu said: "Go to the dead brother's house first, and then go back to your hometown." β
Wen Ruo was a little surprised, and asked: "It's not difficult for you to stay in the army and seek a half-official position, why do you go home?"
Wu Xiudao: "Maybe I'm tired, maybe I'm tired of killing, maybe I don't want to see the people around me fall anymore." β
Wen Ruo paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and said gloomily: "If what I ask you to do is still killing, will you do it?"
Wu Xiudao: "Do it." β
"Oh?
"Because I am still a Wei soldier, it is my duty to obey orders. β
Wen Ruo nodded thoughtfully, "Kill someone, what do you want?"
Wu Xiudao: "It's better to go back to your hometown." β
"Won't you ask for a sum of money, or an official position?"
"Naturally, the military salary cannot be less, and the official position is counted. β
"Do you know who you killed?"
"Please be clear. β
"Emperor of the Great Zhou, do you dare to kill?"
"Dare. β
Wen Ruo suddenly looked back at Wu Xiu, his eyes were sharp, and he said lightly: "Do you know what will happen if you say you don't dare just now?"
Wu Xiu shook his head, "I don't know." β
"You're going to die. Wen Ruo took out a sword from the big table and pointed it at Wu Xiu, "Tell me, why did you agree without thinking?"
Wu Xiu looked at the tip of the sword overflowing with cold light, "Because you are a general, I am a soldier." β
"It's as simple as that?"
"It's as simple as that. β
Wen Ruo put away his sword, "Okay, Wu Xiu, listen, after killing someone, go to Qingfufang in Xudu to ring the bell thirteen times, and naturally someone will bring you wealth and wealth." Only you know about this matter, but you killed the emperor of the previous dynasty, and the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, so be careful. β
Wu Xiu asked, "When?"
"On the first day of the fifth month, King Wei ascended the throne, the emperor of the previous dynasty may have to leave the capital before and go to Fengshan County, which is a long way away, and you can do it at any time on the way to Fengshan County. He walked back to the main seat and sat down, "Wu Xiu, you have to remember, flash people to kill their mouths, cut the grass and eradicate the roots!"
Wu Xiu asked, "I still have a question?"
Wen Ruo frowned, "Ask." β
"Does King Wei know about this?"
Wen Ruo stared at Wu Xiu and replied in a deep voice: "King Wei, he knows and doesn't know. β
Wu Xiu didn't say anything more, just clenched his fists, "Subordinates take orders." β
Wen Ruo nodded, "Take some of this tea back, your brother surnamed Han can also drink it." Promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, smooth the qi and pulse, and the injury will heal faster. β
Wu Xiu took a black bag and withdrew from the tent.
Wen Ruo stroked his beard and pondered, his eyes were cloudy, his eyebrows were sometimes stretched and sometimes locked, and he drank a sip of spring dew tea that was already a little cold, and then he closed his eyes, either to recuperate, or to have deep thoughts.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the lights are on, and the singing and dancing are leveling.
Many people sleep tonight with songs.
Han Donglai leaned in front of the tent, drank spirits, stared at the bright moon, and said softly to himself: Love the Lantern Festival, the moonlight is beautiful, and the lights are brilliant. The moon is full of ice wheels, the lights burn all over the world, and people step on the spring sun. The three beautiful things are beautiful, and the four are ruthless and hateful. What I am afraid of is that the lights are dim and bright, and the people are quiet and desolate. Horn Pin South Building, the west chamber under the moon.
Wu Xiu was already drunk.
