Chapter 374: The Gambler
Daliang broke the city, and only a few dozen of the 30,000 armor soldiers escaped, and the rest were all killed.
Among them is a general named Yang Qing, in the war before Liyang, this person fought bravely, strategized, and opened and closed his tactics vertically and horizontally, and became a climate of his own, and has always been known as a figure who can become the second military god of Liyang.
After this battle, this person disappeared from the world, and many of his previous reputations also disappeared, leaving only a few words in the history books.
In the third year of the Apocalypse, on August 31, Yang Qing, the general of Daliang City, defended the city unfavorably and was broken by the barbarians.
This is a preface.
About a hundred miles outside the city of Daliang, the defenders of Liyang guarded the hundreds of newly erected tents, and sent a large number of people with shovels to dig horse pits in front of the camp.
The scorching sun was scorching, and the soldiers were sweating like rain, silent and silent, staring at the sharp blades of the shovels cutting on the thick loess, splashing a large amount of smoke and dust, and they were never tired of it.
Although they don't know what the point of doing this is.
The barbarians often marched in their vicinity in large armies, but they did not come to provoke them, as if they had forgotten them.
In the same way, they don't send troops on their side, there are only more than 40,000 people on this side, and in the face of a large number of enemy troops, self-protection is a problem, let alone sending troops to take the initiative to attack.
Li Wenshuo also felt very bored and depressed at the same time, there are many people who feel this way, not only him.
But no one spoke, for everyone knew that a moment of silence was a prelude to an impending storm.
As a general, he had a separate tent, which was not big, unlike the barbarian felt tents, with a thick tarpaulin to protect him from the wind and rain, but it was not very warm, but he didn't care.
Like a general who has really commanded the army for many years, he sat quietly on the bookcase, frowned and looked at the paperwork in his hand, gasped, and said, "This group of little rabbits is really not at ease at all." ”
Hearing this, Li Haowen, who was standing below, smiled helplessly, he knew what was written on the paperwork, so he had this expression.
The two swordsmen under his hands relied on their martial arts to break into the camp of the Huotou Army, knocked over a dozen people, and stewed meat porridge in a large cauldron, but before they could eat it, they were arrested, and now they are beating with military sticks.
He has seen the military sticks in the barracks, and the beaters are all first-class masters, and he knows that you are a person who practices martial arts.
Even if a brave man is on weekdays, it is difficult to keep silent under this military stick.
"General, this group of people is arrogant and makes mistakes, and it is inevitable that they will be beaten with military sticks, but it has only been two days, and more than a dozen people have been beaten and can't get out of bed, and after a long time, in the eyes of the brothers in other battalions, we are becoming more and more isolated, this is not a thing. ”
Li Wenshuo also had a headache, waved his hand, and said: "Don't worry about these things, if you get beaten a little more, you will naturally have a long memory, and the people in the province still think that they are still messing around." ”
Hearing this, Li Haowen also nodded, took two steps forward, and said, "General, I heard that the imperial court has transferred people from the south again. ”
Li Wenshuo put the paperwork aside, pulled out the broken teeth and put them on the table, gently wiped the sword body with the silky silk in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "After all, our people are still too few, and the enemy is not fighting now, because the rest of the border pass is a desperate battle to the death, involving the enemy's soldiers and horses, and when the army from the south comes, I don't want to take down Daliang City, how can I hold this six-hundred-mile plain." ”
Li Wenshuo analyzed without a head, estimating that he didn't believe what he said, although he was no longer the military novice he used to be, but he was definitely not a qualified general, but he could recognize the flag and keep up with the army dispatch, as for the real deployment of troops, he still didn't know anything.
Li Haowen didn't say a word, he stood there, looking at the extremely simple sword, not knowing what he was thinking.
"General, Song Xiaohu of the Huotou Army asks to see you. ”
"Let him in. ”
As soon as the sergeant who reported the report withdrew on the front foot, Song Xiaohu walked in on the back foot, holding a large blue and white bowl in his hand, and said with a smile: "See the general." ”
Li Wenshuo glanced up, slightly stunned, the young man with clear eyebrows and strong spirits yesterday has become blue and swollen today, and there is still plaster on his face.
Suddenly remembered the report just now, and smiled bitterly: "I'm really sorry." ”
Song Xiaohu raised his hand very magnificently, and said with a smile: "General, don't say this, try this bowl of oil and spicy seeds, absolutely authentic craftsmanship, when I was not a soldier before, my family relied on a bowl of noodles to make a living." ”
While speaking, the big bowl was in front of Li Wenshuo, smelling the yellow and fragrant noodles, and he was also very satisfied.
Things are always so sudden.
That night, Li Wenshuo received an order from the general, and the Jianghu Righteous Battalion took advantage of the night to march west tonight and raid a military town in the southwest.
Li Wenshuo did not express any intention of opposing dissatisfaction, and of course, it was useless for him to oppose it.
The night was very dark, and the night sky was full of thick clouds, and by the faint light of the full moon, you could see clusters of dark clouds, like a group of spirits dedicated to destruction, taking advantage of the wind to rush through the chaotic sky.
Li Wenshuo walked in front of the formation, dressed in black, without making a sound.
Behind him were a thousand sergeants, not wearing heavy iron armor, but also dressed in black, parked their horses five miles away, crouched lightly on the ground, and slowly advanced towards the town in front of them, where their figures had been revealed.
Li Wenshuo continued to move forward, subconsciously his body became shorter and shorter, the enemy was in front of him, and with his eyesight, he could even see the man with a knife who was sentry not far in front.
All worries and uneasiness disappeared in this moment, as if something was awakened in the depths of my heart, and all superfluous emotions turned into a thirst for blood and killing.
Li Wenshuo suddenly knew why he wanted to send a charity camp with little experience.
They may not have experience in combat, but they do have experience in killing.
A surprise attack is not an assassination, and even if the enemy is careless about prevention, the movement of a thousand people will not go undetected.
Just when the patrolling man's eyes widened and he was about to scream, Li Wenshuo suddenly increased his speed, and with a sudden advance, he came to the front of the enemy, and with a swing of his sword, he cut off the opponent's head, blood splashed, and shot obliquely to the ground.
The flying head hit the wall, fell to the ground, and rolled out of the way.
......
Wu Qien sat on the side seat, did not look at the general sitting in the middle hall, used a knife to cut the meat off the roast duck piece by piece, neatly arranged, and the small plate on the side was filled with dipping water full of red oil.
"You don't seem to be worried at all. Wang Li kept knocking his fingers on the table, glanced at him, and said softly: "That military town has two thousand barbarian defenders, and the strength is strong, if the army charges head-on during the day, even if the elite soldiers under your command do not have three thousand, you dare not say that you are absolutely sure." ”
Wu Qien snorted twice, took off the golden treasure knife from his waist, and put it under the table, as if he was a lot more relaxed, let out a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I don't know martial arts, but my ability to see people has always been good, so I don't know what about Li Wenshuo, but I haven't heard of the decision you made until now." ”
Hearing this, Wang Li laughed, shook his head helplessly, and said, "If you are a little bolder, that guy from Wuyan Gu will definitely not be your opponent." ”
Wu Qien waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "I don't dare to fight him, his martial arts are world-famous, and he rushed directly to the barracks and killed me, what can I do?"
Wang Li snorted lightly and said, "Kill you, go through those masters under your hands, and directly rush to the army of ten thousand to take your head, unless he reaches the realm of Tianchong!"
Wu Qien didn't answer, laughed, and began to eat.
After a while, Wang Li suddenly said: "Actually, I don't know everything, and many times I rely on guessing. ”
"Well, yes, you're a lucky gambler. ”
