Chapter 19: Casting lots

readx;? Huang Xiaoqiang stood up and turned his back to the generals, "Pull out this Dongfang Traceless and beat the eighty military sticks hard." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"" obeys. ”

This Dongfang Traceless, no matter what, can be regarded as the elder brother of Bei Mingchen. Seeing that his brother was about to be beaten, Bei Mingchen also continued to intercede. "Wait a minute, General, General Gu Mo knows, when General Dongfang went out of the city to meet the battle, he killed dozens of enemies and fought until the last moment, for which he was now wounded by countless swords. If we still have to fight eighty military sticks now, the Dongfang general will be wounded and wounded, and when the battle comes, our army will lose a fierce general. And doesn't this chill the hearts of the soldiers? ”

Dongfang Wuxian said, "Brother Beiming, don't ask him, I'm not rare, just fight, manly husband is still afraid of this?"

Huang Xiaoqiang originally intended to spare Dongfang Wuxian in his heart, everything he did just now was just to establish military prestige and stimulate the fighting spirit of the soldiers below. After all, his own soldiers are still on the way to support, and now the group of generals below, although Huang Xiaoqiang knows each other, he is not too familiar, and Huang Xiaoqiang does not have enough prestige in their minds. And this group of soldiers who are about to face it, there are too many recruits.

Bei Mingchen was a little panicked in his heart, and secretly scolded Dongfang Wuxi. At this time, Dongfang Wuxian was still singing against Huang Xiaoqiang, wouldn't he be looking for a fight.

Huang Xiaoqiang turned around and looked at Dongfang Wuxian without any expression. said lightly, "Good guy, backbone, good." If you beg for mercy, I'll beat you even more. Okay, for the sake of all the generals pleading for you, you will write down this for the time being, but military law must always be observed. "Huang Xiaoqiang means that the criminal law is lighter, but it still has to be beaten.

Huang Xiaoqiang looked around and said lightly, "Pull it down, just outside the big tent, beat him with ten whips, and Bei Mingchen will supervise it." ”

Bei Mingchen was overjoyed in his heart, "The last general will take the order." Immediately, he went to supervise with some gusto.

The whip didn't twitch much, and the sound of pain in Dongfang Wuxian was not heard, and the silence continued to be restored outside the tent.

Bei Mingchen came in, "Tell the general, the ten lashes have been beaten." Huang Xiaoqiang closed his eyes and did not answer. Then, Dongfang Traceless walked in slowly.

Huang Xiaoqiang opened his eyes and said, "General Dongfang, these seventy whips have been written down for the time being, I just hope that you can make up for your merits and not let me be disappointed." ”

"The last will obey. ”

Huang Xiaoqiang continued, "Okay, all the soldiers have arrived, and we must be clear about the current situation, so I don't need to say more." You only need to follow the general's arrangement, this Liu Xian's army will be just a swarm of ants at that time. ”

Yin Bupo asked, "May I ask what arrangements the general has, and when will it be, can you give a specific time?"

Huang Xiaoqiang replied, "No matter how the Shu army scolds, you just need to stick to it, this is the first military order issued by this general, and those who violate the order will not be spared." Second, if the troops on the front line are surrounded, the troops behind cannot go to the aid to prevent the enemy from besieging the city and sending reinforcements, because of this, it is necessary to have a brave general at the front line. Thirdly, if the enemy's siege engines have arrived, the defenders can take advantage of the opportunity and order a retreat. Is there anything else you don't understand?"

"Nope. All the generals replied in unison.

Huang Xiaoqiang nodded, "Then who dares to stick to the first line of defense?"

There are many mountains in Yiling, and the trees are vigorous, so the best way to break the enemy is to attack by fire. Huang Xiaoqiang's main strategy to break the enemy this time was to follow Lu Xun's method of burning the company camp in the official history, because in this other world, Lu Xun was sick at the time, Liu Bei won a big victory, and then due to the deliberate boasting of the historian, this Liu Bei's offensive strategy was described as a method of victory, foolproof. It was precisely because of this that Liu Xian, Zhao Yin and others dared to attack. However, Huang Xiaoqiang saw through everything and just waited for the time to come.

Huang Xiaoqiang's question was not answered, because the first line of defense meant directly facing nearly 100,000 troops. Moreover, the danger factor is the greatest, and there is a danger of being captured or killed at any time, and the whole army will be annihilated. Huang Xiaoqiang didn't force anyone at this time, because he knew that this task was too arduous. But this task is of great significance, as long as the front line is supported, it is to set an example for the back, the whole six lines of defense, Liu Xian's army hit Yiling, I don't know how long, at that time the reinforcements have arrived, the odds have been fought a lot, and there are many more variables. Moreover, the difficulty coefficient of the six lines of defense is gradually decreasing, and the most difficult troops can hold out for ten days and half a month, and the troops after that can't hold out longer?

Seeing that everyone didn't answer, Bei Mingchen and Yin Bupo stood up at the same time, "The last general is willing to go." ”

The two of them glanced at each other and said, "General Beiming (Yin), you can give me this task." ”

Huang Xiaoqiang smiled in his heart, he was very pleased, Bei Mingchen and Yin Bupo's actions were completely an excellent example for the generals and soldiers below. The two argued for a while, but no result came to an end. Seeing such a situation, Huang Xiaoqiang's goal had been achieved, and his morale had risen, so he stepped forward to stop it. "Alright, alright. The two of you have the strength to quarrel here, so it is better to save your strength and keep it to deal with Liu Xian's army. Let's do it, draw lots, and I'll be the referee. There are two paper balls here, one with a mark, on which I will write a Chu character later, and the other is a blank piece of paper, and the general who got the marked paper ball will lead the army to hold the first line of defense, while the other person will go to hold the second line of defense. Does it make sense for two?"

At this time, there was no better solution, Yin Bupo and Bei Mingchen both nodded in agreement.

Huang Xiaoqiang said, "Okay, for the sake of fairness, everyone, turn their heads." "The people at the bottom naturally obey. After a while, Huang Xiaoqiang said, "Okay, it's written, everyone turn around." Which of the two will smoke first?"

There were two paper balls of the same size on the table, and they didn't look any different. Yin Bu said, "I'll come first." After speaking, he immediately came up and took a paper ball, and Bei Mingchen naturally took another one.

Yin Bupo didn't care about anything else, he immediately opened the paper ball, and on top of the paper ball, there was nothing, a completely blank piece of paper. "Hey, it's really unlucky, the last general will lead the army to defend the second line of defense. General Beiming, if you can't hold it, remember to retreat immediately. ”

Bei Mingchen looked at his paper ball, and his mind was full of questions, but he didn't say anything.

Huang Xiaoqiang smiled slightly, "Okay, the generals will listen to the order." This battle is related to the glory of our army and the safety of Jingzhou, please fight bravely against the enemy. Bei Yingchen (the last general), you guard the first line of defense, Yin Bu Po (the last general), you guard the second line of defense. Guo Kaishan。。。。。。 "Huang Xiaoqiang arranged everything, and all the generals went out. Only Huang Xiaoqiang and Bei Mingchen were left in the camp.

Bei Mingchen asked, "General, who are you?" Bei Mingchen took a piece of paper and showed it to Huang Xiaoqiang, Bei Mingchen's paper ball was also completely blank, and there was no Chu character at all. (To be continued.) )
