Chapter 182: Swallow as much as you come
Immediately someone jumped out and shouted: "What nonsense!"
Tong Guan waved his hand and asked with interest, "Oh, what's weird?"
"It was a sunny day, and the fog was so thick that it obscured people's vision to the point where they could not see their fingers. The last general proposed that the army detour to the north and enter Baihugang from the direction of the three deep ditches!"
"Presumptuous!"
Ma Wanli, the governor of Xunzhou, loudly reprimanded: "The army is invading like fire, how can we change course for such nonsense!
Chen Zhu didn't even glance at Ma Wanli out of the corner of his eyes, and looked at Tong Guan with a flat expression, waiting for his answer.
Tong Guan was originally the leader of the generals, although he was surprised that Chen Zhu and Ma Wanli had no grievances, why did they have such a stiff fuss, but he didn't care much, and said with a smile: "Chen Zhu, it seems that General Ma is laughing at you." In this way, since Ma Jianjun has concerns, I will take your headquarters and go to investigate again. Whether it's true or not, find out!"
Ma Wanli glanced at Chen Zhu proudly, hugged his fists and said obey, and strode out of the camp, and then there was a shouting herald outside.
Tong Guan said with a smile: "Okay, General Arima is out of the horse, and all the generals just need to wait for the news." Marching and fighting is not a matter of one or two days, we will solve whatever we encounter, and now that we are hungry, we will solve the problem of eating first. ”
The generals laughed and clenched their fists.
"Chen Zhu, come to me and tell me in detail what happened!"
"Yes!" Chen Zhu walked over.
Duan Pengju hated his teeth, in an afternoon, he died, the fire was on him, and in the end, it was Chen Zhu who was favored. This irritated him.
The military cook carried the whole roast sheep into the Chinese army's tent, and just randomly divided it into several large pieces and retreated. The generals didn't care, grabbed a large piece of mutton and nibbled on it. While munching, he discussed things in the army with the people next to him. From time to time, grab the teapot and pour it vigorously. You can't drink alcohol in the army, you can only drink tea and talk about it better than nothing.
Ma Wanli rushed to the river with 20,000 horses from his headquarters, sneered at the pioneer camp that was as cold as an ice cellar, and pressed the whole army with a wave of his big hand.
The promise of a reward before coming had already aroused the blood of the soldiers, and when they heard the order, where could they still bear it. A large number of soldiers roared wildly and rushed onto the pontoon bridge, surging like thousands of horses galloping.
In the afternoon, the number of pontoon bridges has expanded from five to more than 20, stretching more than 20 miles of rivers, and 20,000 horses and a cup of tea have all rushed in, leaving only Ma Wanli and 500 personal guards standing by the river, smug and waiting for news.
There is no news from 10,000 people exploring the way, so I will go directly to 20,000 people, no matter what kind of dead place it is, 20,000 people will rush over, how can they smash out a transparent hole.
However, half an hour passed, and there was still no sound on the river, and Ma Wanli's expression had gradually changed from smug to uncertain.
He sent his guards to the pioneer camp to inquire, and the answers he got were the same as what Chen Zhu said.
Ma Wan's heart was pale, and he was already in a dilemma at this time.
I waited for another half hour, but there was still no response. There are not a single one of the 20,000 horses left, and it will definitely not survive when he returns to the Chinese army. His eyes stared fiercely at the 40,000 horses of the pioneer battalion. Since 20,000 people can't do it, then 40,000 people together.
It's my credit for getting the news, if it doesn't work, how can I leave your pioneer battalion with vitality!
Ma Wanli rushed directly into the camp with his personal guards and shouted, "Where is the military judge?"
A general ran out quickly, hugged his fists and said, "The last general!"
"How manpower is your Warlord?"
"Three thousand!"
"Okay!" Ma Wanli's eyes were gloomy, and he said coldly: "Gather your overseer team, I want the vanguard battalion to cross the river!"
The general exclaimed: "General, you are the commander of the right outpost, and you have no right to order my forward battalion!"
"It's late!" Ma Wanli sneered: "Your pioneer battalion wasted an afternoon, and still did not find out the news of the river, delaying the army's marching plan, the marshal was angry, and the vanguard officers of Duan Pengju and Chen Zhu had been cut off, and now you are under my jurisdiction!"
The general bowed his head and said, "Please seal the letter of the general!"
"Yin Xin no! The arrow is here, do you dare to obey?" Ma Wanli took out the arrow that sent the troops and horses of his headquarters to move, and slammed it on the ground. "Now gather the Overseer team, gather everyone in the pioneer battalion, and cross the river with fire!"
General Pi picked up the arrow, examined it carefully, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!"
The arrow is the mark of the commander's order, and there is an arrow in the army, so there is naturally no taboo.
Soon, the sound of snare drums sounded in the vanguard camp. The snare drums rumbled, and the soldiers who were resting everywhere ran to the camp in a daze, not knowing what had happened.
After the three drums sounded, 40,000 horses had gathered, Ma Wanli smiled gloomily, pointed at the Xiaohe River and shouted: "Soldiers, cross the river!"
Five hundred guards shouted: "Cross the river! Cross the river!"
The Overseers shouted in unison: "Cross the river! Cross the river!"
40,000 people reluctantly divided into more than 20 people, and reluctantly walked onto the pontoon bridge-
At midnight.
Bing Sanzhang walked into the mirror space, looked at the "ginseng fruit" hanging on the big willow tree, sighed, and said in surprise: "So many people?"
Xiao Man said angrily: "It's almost 70,000 people, even if your big willow tree is thirty feet tall, it can't hang so many people." It's still more than half there!"
Bing Sanzhang looked at the back of the tree, and sure enough, there was a large area lying densely, and some of them were already in a daze and began to wake up, but before they could open their eyes, a flash of lightning would hit their bodies and stun them again.
"Originally, I thought that it would be a lot to deceive 30,000 people with this plan, but I didn't expect that so many people would come at once, so I had to deal with it first!" Bing Sanzhang nodded, stretched out his right hand and slowly shook it.
Thirty percent, suck!
An invisible wave rippled out, and a massive amount of life force was collected and stored into life force value.
Since the upgrade has been completed, the towering number of vitality value has been completely hit to the bottom, and with this supplement, it can be regarded as a little improved.
Xiao Man jumped down from the tree and said dissatisfiedly: "Shopkeeper, those people outside are too stupid, don't let Mao Shanying appear, I'll go directly with the White Snake Guards, and promise to rush down, so that they don't dare to look at me Baihugang again!"
Bing Sanzhang rolled his eyes and said: "They don't dare to look directly, where will we find coolies in the future!" Look at the 70,000 people behind you, they are all qualified soldiers, and if you adjust and supplement the White Snake Guard with a little adjustment, don't we also have 100,000 soldiers and horses?"
Xiao Man's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Shopkeeper, are you catching alive to replenish the soldiers?"
Bing Sanzhang looked at her and didn't speak, Xiao Man smiled and scratched his head.
As for the generals of the Three Kingdoms period, this brain is of no use at all except for fighting.
"Go! Send a message to Mao Shanying, just say that it's dark outside, it's time for him to appear! Put away the obscene aura of his body, now it's to deceive people!"
Xiao Man stretched out his white and tender palm, and a bubble slowly appeared in the palm of his hand, and after saying a few words, he threw it out casually, and the bubble quickly rushed out of the space door and disappeared.
Bing Sanzhang blinked, since he gave her the Book of Heaven, every time Xiaoman used a spell, he felt plausible.
The door of the space slowly closed, and Xiao Man asked, "Shopkeeper, what are we going to do next?"
"Wait!" Bing Sanzhang squinted and said, "I want to know what Bao Zheng's reaction is! Hehe, it's not easy to get into the forward battalion." ”——
In the camp of the Chinese army, the horses galloped all the way to the front of the tent.
There are no men and horses in the pioneer battalion by the Xiao River, and there is no trace of General Ma's right sentry horse, more than 20 pontoon bridges by the river are scattered and scattered, there are a large number of footsteps, the fog in the Xiao River is full, quiet as a ghost, and no human figure is found!"
Tong Guan's face darkened, since the heroic dispatch of Ma Wanli, the generals who had finished eating in the tent had been waiting for his news, but two hours had passed, but there was not even a single one to report the news. sent a scout horse to investigate, and finally got this kind of news.
"Dashuai is angry!" Chen Zhu lightly persuaded, turned his head and asked the spy: "On the way back, can you see people with signs of desertion?"
Tanma nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I met a group of deserters, a total of eight people, and they have been arrested." ”
Tong Guan slapped the table and said angrily: "What nonsense, hurry up!"
Tanma turned around and went out, beckoning his men to bring in eight big men.
The eight people were originally ordinary soldiers, and they had long been afraid of running away and being caught, but at this time, when they saw so many generals, not only did they sweat into a stream, but their legs were soft into noodles, and before anyone could speak, they themselves fell to their knees crackling.
Tong Guan stood up and shouted: "Say! What happened to the pioneer camp, where are the 20,000 horses on my right post?
The eight of them trembled like chaff and couldn't say a word.
Zhou Xin, the commander of Songzhou, who was also the general of the right outpost, saw it clearly, and clenched his fists and persuaded: "Dashuai, your tiger is too powerful, their little soldiers can't resist, and if you ask a few more words, you may die of fear directly, it is better to hand it over to the main and deputy vanguards for interrogation, after all, it is their own subordinates, and it is easy to talk!"
Tong Guan was so angry that he didn't want to speak, so he waved his hand directly.
When Duan Pengju heard Tanma say that the pioneer camp was gone, he was already a little unable to sit still, and at this time, when he saw the marshal's signal, he rushed forward with an arrow step, and asked urgently: "Are you the soldiers under the command of the deputy vanguard?"
The eight people slowed down for a long time, and only then did one of them wipe his face with sweat and said: "The little ones are from Suizhou Wei and under the command of the general!"
Duan Pengju's face turned dark and said, "Why do you want to be a deserter?"
"After dark, 20,000 troops came from the flanks of the camp, and the smaller ones were sent to inquire about the movement of the army, but they were beaten back. The 20,000 soldiers and horses didn't even say hello, and directly crossed the river and disappeared into the fog.
An hour later, the general Ma broke into the vanguard camp, threw down the arrows and beat the snare drum, and ordered the overseers to force the entire vanguard battalion to cross the river. The little ones were frightened for a while, so they fell down when they stepped on the pontoon, rolled into the river and hid for half an hour before they dared to show their heads!
Duan Peng's hands trembled with anger, and he turned to Tong Guan and said, "Marshal, the right sentinel Ma Wanli innocently transferred my vanguard camp, and his crime should be beheaded!"
Before Tong Guan could speak, Chen Zhu said lightly: "Come on, behead the deserter and show it to the public!"
Duan Pengju was furious: "How dare you ......?"
Chen Zhu didn't even look at him, and only said four words before blocking his words: "Military regulations are like mountains!"
Outside the door, a guard rushed in like a wolf, dragged out the eight men who were already paralyzed with fright, and sent eight heads in a short time.
Tong Guan waved his hand in disgust, "Circulate the whole army to set an example!"
The guards took the order, Tong Guan rubbed his temples, frowned, and said, "It's not good to go out of the division, what are the plans of the generals?"
Yan Mei and Bi Shengwei glanced at each other, and said: "Dashuai, you can attack with fire!"
"Oh?" Tong Guan was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "How to attack?"
The second general said confidently: "Since the river is full of fog, why don't we mobilize some small boats, pile up the things that cause fire, and directly burn the fog to destroy it? As long as the fog is dispersed, isn't it clear what the situation on the other side is?"
Zhou Xin said disdainfully: "Set fire to the river, you can't think of it." Marshal, the last general thinks that there is no need to be so troublesome, since the pathfinder is always nowhere to be found, why don't we tie the rope to the spinner's waist, always tighten the rope, and once I notice that something is wrong, I will immediately pull it back!"
Tong Guan nodded and said: "Yes, this method is good! Come on, pass on my order, transfer a thousand people from the Chinese army into twenty groups, fifty people with a rope, connected to the front and back, each person is ten meters apart, Zhou Xin, since it is your idea, you take 10,000 horses to guard the end of the rope, pay attention at any time!"
"The last general will take the order!" Zhou Xin glanced at Yan Mei and Bi Shengwei, the corners of his mouth raised lightly, and he strode out of the handsome tent.
Yan Mei and Bi Sheng were so angry that their eyes were red, and they couldn't wait to bite Zhou Xin hard.
Chen Zhu glanced at Zhou Xin's back and shook his head slightly.
Tong Guan obviously noticed his move and asked, "Why, you don't like him?"
Chen Zhu said lightly: "Dashuai, this dense fog swallowed 70,000 horses before and after, and there was not even a sound, do you really think that a rope can solve this problem?"
Tong Guan frowned: "Then what do you mean?"
"Change places and enter Baihugang!"
"No!" Tong Guan categorically refused, and said angrily: "The army is marching, the first heavy soldier is sharp, and if it is slightly frustrated, it will retreat, which is not good for the army!"
"Poor Dao thinks that it is better for the marshal to accept this general's suggestion!"
Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice sounded, and all the soldiers inside and outside the tent drew their swords and guarded cautiously.
Yan Mei and Bi Shengwei shouted in unison: "Who hides his head and shows his tail?"
The voice chuckled, "Don't you dare to be called hiding your head and showing your tail, Maoshan retreats from the ghost hall Maoshan Ying, and I have seen the handsome outside the gate!"
"Outside the gate?" all the generals were startled at the same time, but Tong Guan was well-informed, a trace of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he stood up and walked out.
The generals looked at each other and followed in unison. (To be continued.) )
