Bamboo horse, bamboo horse, cheating and fraud

Chapter 61 Unpredictable

It was late at night, and the cool wind hit, but his palms were hot as if they were on fire.I took out the sweaty hand that was pinched by him, and patted him on the shoulder: "Go to sleep, time waits for no one, we can't waste time in this Qingshui City. Recharge your energy, there are new tasks tomorrow !"

He nodded, and replied solemnly: "Yes, brother!" Then he trotted all the way back to the room.

I got used to the days of night clothes and food, I rubbed the tiger's mouth that had been pinched blue by him just now, and spread out the map before returning to the case.

In just two years, Xiao Luo and I formed an elite troop and marched towards the imperial city like a bamboo.In two years, relying on sufficient strength and correct command, the uprising army was almost invincible and conquered most of the cities in the south of the Yangtze River.

This is a good sign.

However, this fire is far from reaching the imperial city.

Sitting in front of the case, my thoughts were a little messy. As the team grew, I became more and more aware of what I was carrying. human life.

Not long after dawn, my subordinates came to report that the foreigner from yesterday had not been found, and some ordinary people saw him leave the city not long after we left.

I waved my hand to signal him to go down, and when I raised my eyes, I saw Xiao Luo who had been standing at the door for an unknown amount of time.

I was like a dumb man eating coptis, and when I met his questioning gaze, I could only sigh.Fortunately, he also had the right to regard this matter as my whim, and didn't pursue it too much. Instead, he asked: "We didn't have any casualties in this battle. We will continue marching the day after tomorrow. Do you have any objection?"

I shook my head quickly.I'm used to following his arrangements, and even if I have an opinion, it won't help.He came to ask me to give me enough face, I don't need to make fun of myself.

We passed five passes in this way, killed six generals, and headed north all the way.Time flies like a white horse, and it is summer again in the blink of an eye.

You Maobing, that little bastard, is quite up-to-earth, and he has become a small official under my hand.He said "big brother big brother" shamelessly every day, and everyone in the army knew that there was such a relationship between me and him, so he just added a few sweet words and finally got everyone in exchange. The horse's head is looking forward.

Although I know the truth that "the wind is not always smooth, the soldiers are not always victorious", but I still have a little luck in my heart. I always feel that the "Yue Ming Army" is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and everything they do is to do justice for the sky. Over the years, everything has been exceptionally smooth.

This kind of thinking has been maintained until a battle in midsummer. When I watched those brothers who were born and died with me fall, I didn't understand what war is.

Yangcheng is a small city built on the hillside. It is said that there are many sheep in the city, so it is named Yangcheng.Yangcheng's terrain is very dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but in Xiao Luo's words, if you take this small hill, and then go north, you will have a flat river.

When he said this, I was standing on the training platform overlooking the hundreds of thousands of troops below—the bloody setting sun shone on the faces of those majestic and majestic men. Shattered the sky.Looking at the battle flag flying in the sky, I thought to myself, this is war—a good man gallops on the battlefield, and for the belief that holds his head three feet high, he deserves to die.

But I have never tasted failure, and I am far from knowing what war is.

War is to drain people's bones and blood.

No one can compare to Xiao Luo when he loses the chain at the critical moment.

Looking at the dark city gate, You Maobing was a little apprehensive: "Brother, shall we enter or not!"

I stretched out my 1.8-meter long legs and kicked his horse's belly hard. Fortunately, the brat reacted quickly and reined in the reins, so he almost didn't fall off the horse.I said in a deep voice, "What are you talking about, the gates of the city are already open, so why not go in?"

He glanced behind him, still hesitating a bit: "Oh...Mr. Xiao is really, such a dangerous battle, he just has something to go to the capital at this time...What do you think it is?"

It was his words that really hit my sore spot, and I was suddenly shaken, so I just kept silent.If Xiao Luo was commanding from the side, I would dare to lead troops through even mountains of swords and seas of fire, but at this most critical juncture, Xiao Luo suddenly dropped a letter and went to the capital, leaving me such a mess.

You Maobing fanned the flames from the side again: "Brother, I heard that Ge Chengfeng is very vicious. He has resisted for half a month, but today he suddenly opened the city gate to welcome us in. Are you really afraid of being deceived?"

A lieutenant beside him couldn't take it any longer, and interrupted him angrily: "You melon skin, what are you talking about? It can't be said that the dog was trapped for half a month, ran out of ammunition and food, and wanted to sing an empty city plan to scare us !"

The person who said this was Shi Hong, and everyone called him Lao Shi.He is nearly half a hundred years old, and he can be regarded as a veteran in the army, but his body is still very strong.I heard from Xiao Luo that he used to be a fierce general under the King of Yue. He was born and died with the King of Yue in his early years. He was demoted to Danzhou because he offended Longwei.

You Maobing was not convinced, and the two stayed there to argue for a long while, biting like a dog biting a dog for a long time, unable to tell the winner or loser.

I glanced at the two of them, waved my hand irritably, and ordered: "Old Shi, You Maobing, you two, take 3000 troops and follow me into the city to inspect first, listen to the order, retreat immediately if there is any situation, and don't want to fight!"

This was a compromise, and the two of them no longer had any objections, and obediently followed me into the city.

Yellow flowers on the battlefield, the setting sun was like blood, we rode on horseback and walked slowly towards the gate of the city.The dark city cave is like a bloody mouth filled with death, silently watching and waiting for the arrival of the prey.

Thousands of miles of undulating mountains formed a meandering line, reflected in Lao Shi's cloudy eyes, and the setting sun covered his bark-like dry old face with a layer of golden veil, and he slowly opened his mouth to groan Said: "The soldiers of the captives are in the clouds, and the bones of the battlefield are wrapped around the grass roots."

And one end of that thread is connected to his life and death, and the other end is connected to the peace and joy of a hundred thousand troops and even tens of millions of people.

You Maobing interrupted him somewhat inappropriately: "Old Shi, I know that you have never read a book since you were a child, and you yearn for the life of a cultured person, but I understand that you occasionally recite poems and pretend to be X, but a war is about to take place, what can we do?" Isn't it so unlucky?"

Old Shi rolled his eyes at him, and cursed: "You brat, you know nothing!"

The good mood was completely ruined by these two enemies, I rubbed my throbbing temples, and said helplessly: "Can you fucking be quiet, what time is it and what time is it?"

Fortunately, I was still a bit majestic in front of them, and the two of them immediately stopped talking kindly when they heard the words.
