Chapter 102: Taking over the camp
When Mei Ying interrogated the lieutenant, three inspectors in a marching group of a full battalion gathered uneasily beside the captain's horse, and several of them broke away from the brigade and marched on horseback.
Before the lieutenant went to the meeting of the Chinese army, he told him to control the standard battalion cadet corps, immediately support the troops to protect himself in case of danger, and wait for the officers to come back before making plans.
The scouts who were monitoring the camp of the Chinese army did not reply for a long time, and the officers of the other standard teams had already ridden away from the ranks, and the military meeting ended quickly, and the captain was late, so it was inevitable that there would be a delay for a while, but after a long time, the four cronies felt that the situation was not good.
"Commander, we can't hesitate any longer, let the standard battalion stop advancing, assemble the team to go to the Chinese army, and pick up the captains and officers back to the camp. ”
One inspector persuaded again, the other two kept helping, the standard commander was a thirty-year-old instructor, recognized as a lieutenant's henchman, seemed to be moved, the three inspectors said in their hearts that they were hesitant for half an hour, if the battle formation would not delay the military aircraft, unlike the instructor's previous style, now he finally made a decision, but the standard commander still shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"The adults have repeatedly told us before the meeting that we can only raise troops when we encounter danger, and what does it mean to support the army to protect ourselves? That is equivalent to pulling up the anti-flag, and then we will no longer be the imperial soldiers, and we will become horse bandits, so we must not cross this bottom line unless we have to do so. ”
It just so happened that the captain of the guard rode back from the forward, stood on the stirrup and refuted impatiently: "In case of an accident to the captain, without the martial arts to suppress the formation, we don't even have the qualifications to be horse bandits, and the grassland tribe has long held a grudge against Xiangyun Xuebing, and will definitely take the opportunity to take revenge." Commander, if you hesitate any longer, the four of us will take the students to the Chinese army to respond. ”
"If the captain is unharmed, the Chinese army will ask why you led the troops to break into the camp, and what excuse do you use to cover up? The two sides will have a bloody battle on the spot.
The captain of the personal guard pressed his hand on the handle of the knife and asked sharply: "What do you mean by this, the commander? The moment we swore allegiance to the county king, we had no way back, so you really want to ignore the safety of the captain!"
The standard commander reluctantly agreed: "You are still too young, you can't hold back your temperament, since you insist on not listening to persuasion, then good, I will stabilize the standard battalion, so as not to be suspicious of other standard teams, you go back quickly, and take the cadets to pick up the captain." ”
"Yes!"
The four of them turned their horses' heads and ordered the soldiers to assemble, and the standard commander beat the horses and went to the rear team.
Like the Lingbo standard team, the standard battalion student standard team is the main force and the forward, and the other four standards follow behind, and the former captain is worried about any abnormal movements, so he deliberately opens the interval between the marches of each standard, and the front and rear teams are far enough apart, in order to take the initiative of the county, and after killing back to the battalion, he can bring his cronies to quickly break away, so that the rear team has no time to catch up.
For the student soldiers selected from the children's camps, there is no time to win over, especially the children of the nobles and the guards are mixed in, once they realize that they are letting them abandon their families and businesses to become horse bandits, the two sides will immediately face each other, no matter how high the captain's martial arts are, no matter how brave the three patrol students are, they can't bear the siege of the four standard teams, not to mention that there are ten elite standard teams on the left and right, and it will be difficult to get out of the surrounding.
"The lieutenant befriended the county king, the conspiracy was exposed and the county lord was captured, and his cronies plotted to attack the Chinese army. ”
The standard commander rushed to the following standard team, left a short sentence to his colleagues, and went to the rear team, another standard commander was difficult to distinguish between true and false, and prudently ordered the team to stop advancing, and formed a formation in place to defend, regardless of whether the captain and his cronies rebelled, he made up his mind to sit and watch the changes, and did not participate in the rebellion, so as not to deceive them, in case it was a test arranged by the captain, and the consequences of rash action were serious, and the rumor that the captain was the lieutenant's confidant, and the credibility of his words was questionable.
The cronies of the inspector gathered more than 400 soldiers, the three inspectors rushed to the back of the Chinese army, saw the standard team set up camp, thought that the standard commander deliberately delayed the response, with a little vigilance from the side, the standard team did not have the slightest abnormality, neither blocked nor asked, the four people did not feel relieved, passed by three standard teams in a row, all remained silent, so that the cronies could not help but admire the execution of the standard commander, worthy of the lieutenant's confidant, so that the rear team was stabilized in such a short time.
Some people think that people's fate is destined, and people should go through their lives in accordance with the heavens, and the success or failure of right and wrong will turn their heads empty, and the reincarnation will start all over again, and a life of peace is a blessing. Some people believe that my life is up to me, not to the sky, to fight with the sky and the earth, to fight with people, to fight all my life, to die like a lamp to go out, and to let future generations comment on the crimes of a thousand years of merit. Fatalism and atheism, since the beginning of human beings, the debate has been endless, and as a result, neither can completely destroy the other, fatalism has developed various religions, believers are all over the world, and wealthy families burn incense to worship God. Atheism is more marketable at the top of the power, and the gods bless it is a foolish strategy, fighting for power and profit, and stepping on the bones of political enemies at every step of advancement, and unscrupulous means to achieve the end is the purpose of the belief. Whether it is fatalism or atheism, they all believe that people's choices have an impact on fate, and the choices at critical moments are enough to change fate, and people have countless divergent paths in their lives, and the really important choices are only a few times, fatalism is called the gift of God, and atheism is regarded as an opportunity.
The first three standard commanders in order to seek stability, let go of the cronies and scholars, and the glory and wealth of the sassafras, the guard standard commander did not miss the opportunity, heard the summons immediately convened the inspectors, ordered the whole team to prepare for war, dare to lead the troops to attack the camp of the Chinese army, will endanger the safety of the county lord, regardless of whether you are a rebellion, kill is the credit, the five inspectors heard that someone hesitated, several noble officers under his command pulled out their knives, the guards were even more eyeing, the captain of the guard was a cronie selected by the captain, and before he could say anything, he let a noble son cut off his head from behind, a knife caused a massacre, dozens of people in the personal guard team let the knife split the corpse for a moment, the five inspectors did not dare to hesitate, and quickly returned to the team to lead the troops to fight。
The unsuspecting lieutenant's cronies and apprentices, beating horses galloped beside the standard team, and it was too late to notice that something was wrong, and the arrows flew randomly in the sound of the bangzi, and the five patrols had no intention of calculating, and the longbow fired a short crossbow and shot at it, and more than 400 horses and horses, most of them fell down in the chaotic arrows, and the blood stained the grass red, and the bones would be turned into fertilizer.
"Destroy the rebellion, the county lord will reward you, kill-"
The two standard commanders drew their swords and shouted, urging the horses to rush up, three rounds of random arrows were destined to win or lose, and when it was time to harvest the merits, the five patrols were not willing to lag behind to chase and kill the cronies and soldiers, and luckily avoided the captain of the guards and a patrol commander who avoided the arrows, seeing that the defeat was decided, led the remnants to flee to the side, and the standard commander led a patrol cavalry to chase closely.
"Put down your blades and stand by!"
The escape and pursuit did not last long, Hua Yue led several patrols of cavalry to surround him, the standard commander personally led the team, the standard commander knew each other, the chasing army commander immediately ordered to stop advancing, so as not to have a misunderstanding between the two sides, but the fleeing cronies did not dare to stop, the horse whip and the horse wanted to break through, so that Hua Yue instantly distinguished the enemy and me, and ordered a few patrols to surround it, and the two sides ended the battle with a face-to-face, the difference in strength and strength was huge, and the morale could not be compared, and it was fateful to survive.
"Betraying the empire, openly resisting arrest, all on the spot!"
Hua Yue's order made several standard commanders stunned, but the archer patrol was not ambiguous, raised the longbow and arrows off the string, the remaining dozens of lieutenant cronies, the whole body was full of long arrows, and fell down with the war horse, Hua Yue's personal soldiers collected the bow and drew the sword, jumped off the horse to check the battlefield, and found that someone had not yet lost his breath, and went up with a few knives, and the chasing standard commander and cavalry couldn't bear to look at it anymore, but no one ran to stop it.
Mei Ying is kind-hearted and lets go of her cronies and soldiers, she will definitely leave a way to live, but this is a standard camp that the captain has painstakingly managed, and there are not many people hidden in secret, and if she does not use thunderbolt means to deter, it is inevitable that some people will be lucky, the reason why Hua Yue let Yan Ning stumble on Mei Ying and lead the troops to take over alone is to hold the heart of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, and to use bloody suppression to let the students re-understand the imperial military law, not only with military sticks and confinement punishment, the standard camp is mainly to teach, and if you violate the order on the battlefield, you will be beheaded, not to mention raising troops to rebel.
At the beginning of the arrangement of the marching sequence, Yu Wenjie was wary of the full battalion, and deliberately put both sides to cover the flanks, and isolated them with ten standard teams, but unexpectedly, the lieutenant colonel was in the arms, and it was more convenient to get out when the flanks changed.
The full battalion on the other side took over very smoothly, seven standard teams surrounded it, and the full battalion without unified command heard that it was ordered to arrest the rebels, and let a few cronies jump up and down, and there were few people who responded, and even the three patrol cronies and apprentices quickly threw away their weapons, and they would only die worse if they couldn't do anything, and they had long heard that the county lord was merciful, and there might be life if they surrendered.
After cutting off a few jumping lieutenant cronies and officers, and disarming the three patrol soldiers, the coastal standard commander was ordered to command, Hua Yue left three standard teams in case of accidents, and brought others to come, but unexpectedly the full battalion actually began to quell the rebellion on its own, chasing the captain's cronies and fleeing for their lives, and the two standard commanders couldn't help but look high, and they could keenly perceive the situation, and they didn't wait for the order to act decisively, and the previous mistakes would be written off.
Leaving three standard teams to help the two standard commanders rectify the camp affairs, Hua Yue led people back to another full battalion, several standard commanders gathered in the Chinese army to discuss the end, Hua Yue opened the military tent and suddenly fell silent, and the standard commanders had different expressions.
"Constant destruction of road signs, convoys out of the expected plan, very likely to encounter accidents, the escort signs did not send back any reports, either after the destruction was not discovered, or the front and rear teams were cut off from the enemy, in either case, it shows that the steppe tribes have discovered the strategic intention of the soldiers, do not want to see the success of the fortification, and are gathering forces to prevent it. ”
"Why didn't the county lord make contingency arrangements at the meeting?"
The captain of the coastal standard raised the common question of the leading officers, and the military meeting ended two hours ago, and the county lord did not mention anything about it, so it was too abrupt for people to pass on the information at this time.
At that time, the internal thieves had not been eliminated, the two full battalions were full of variables, nearly half of the troops did not listen to orders, and the news of the approaching enemy soldiers came out, so the captain had an excuse not to leave the camp, and the troops sat and watched the success or failure. ”
Hua Yue's explanation was convincing, and the coastal standard chief breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that it is not that the county lord does not trust the standard commanders, and whoever is in command of the current enemy must first clean up and stabilize the interior.
"Inspector Hua, control the full battalion, the Chinese army cadet guards are enough to form a full corps, what should I do next?"
Hua Yue is a close confidant of the county lord Dugu Ying, otherwise he would not have authorized to take over the camp affairs, a while ago rumors were flying all over the sky, revealing the secret that she was favored by the two princes.
"The standard teams marched continuously, and the students were tired, so they took this opportunity to rest for half a day, recuperate and prepare for battle, and I think the county lord will have an order after a while. Hua Yue said a few politely, and the words changed: "There are always people who regard the kindness of the county lord as weakness, first gentle and gentle, and then there are two captains, all of which force the county lord to fight back, and the enemy can punish his clan at present." ”
Several standard commanders were silent for a while when they were obedient, and the soldiers obeyed the order and listened to the command, but the military order was not issued.
"The cronies of the captain of the other battalion were all killed, even if there were fish that exposed the net, if they wanted to make trouble in the future, they had to touch a few heads first. This battalion must also be thoroughly cleaned up, and it is not a way to lock up the three patrol soldiers, they are all the elite of the standard battalion, and the guards will escape if they are not careful, and besides, a big war will start, where is there a place to be imprisoned, and the trouble must be solved as soon as possible. ”
The standard commanders all felt that something was wrong, and the Binhai standard commander asked tentatively: "Inspector Hua, what are you going to do with them, they are all orphans of martyrs?"
Hua Yue chuckled twice and stood up, turned his back to several standard chiefs and replied easily: "Don't bother you with this matter, you just need to rectify the camp affairs, don't ask or inquire about their whereabouts, not knowing the truth is more conducive to the future future." ”
The standard commanders were silent again, and when they said this, they opposed to being suspicious of the air, and it would also cause suspicion, as Hua Yue said, not knowing the truth is not only good for the future, but also can reduce the guilt in their hearts.
"The county lord ordered the standards to stop advancing and prepare for battle according to the sequence. The coastal standard team was incorporated into this battalion, and the standard commander acted as the captain, and the battalion affairs were rectified and actively prepared for war. ”
The guard herald put down the military order, and in front of several standard commanders, he made a gesture to wipe Hua Yue's neck, and then ran out with a smile, the standard commanders pretended not to see it, Hua Yue smiled and walked out of the tent, this is definitely not Mei Ying's original intention, eighty percent is to help Ling Hu Qing talk, Yan Ning and Yu Wenjie fought ruthlessly, but after the war, there was no fifth sister Ling Hu Qing ruthless.
That night, Lei Ming led the heavy infantry to the full battalion, and together with the archers, he patrolled the three patrol soldiers, and did not return to the full camp again.
Mei Ying learned that she asked again and again, but Hua Yue didn't answer and asked: "How did you poison the captain?" Mei Ying said unhappily: "There are herbs in the tea, which are harmless alone, and the sword has been soaked in perfume, and when the two meet, it is a powerful anesthetic, Mr. Cao said it when he was teaching, no wonder you didn't listen carefully." Hua Yue replied with a smile: "I've been listening to the class carefully, I haven't heard Mr. say it, hehe, family learning really has a long history, don't stare at it, the eldest sister will not seek an official position under you in the future, giggles, the three inspectors didn't go to the camp, no wonder you didn't know, I kindly buried them." Lei Ming acted on orders, and it was you who asked him to come and cooperate with me, so as to be less angry with others. ”
Mei Ying was so distressed that she stomped her feet, Hua Yue turned around and left, she knew the reason, she would pass after venting for a while, if she didn't kill the elite of the three patrols, how many people would be killed in the future, kill one person and save many people, what's the matter with the notoriety on her back, the Soldier War Sect belongs to the Demon Sect, Miss Ben has a clear conscience and doesn't care, escort the captain's personal guards to Jicuiguan to guard, you can figure it out, that is the territory of the county king, it is not equal to a disguised enemy, hehe, the guards are afraid that Ling Huqing will kill and feed the wolf, Miss Ben is still soft-hearted, at least let them fall into a whole corpse.
"If you don't kill Wen Qingrou, leave two captains, it's to give you face, everything is only three, and in the future, Hugh blames the eldest sister for being ruthless, and it's always good to be beheaded when you kill someone." ”
