Chapter 113: The Great Defeat of Mystery
The soldiers and horses in Huaiyuan are bounded by Baijian River and will not directly wade through the river and enter the west bank to chase and kill the defeated enemy. This is called Guo Junzong, who is like a dog who is stranded, and Pan Chenghu finally found a chance to take a breath.
Although in the summer of July, Guo Jun and Pan Chenghu were soaked in ice water at this time, they still didn't understand why they were defeated in a mess?
What unethical things have they done? God wants to torment them like this, but he just dislikes them like this?
Even if two thousand pigs are crowded into the village, they will not be killed like this in such a short time!
Looking at the less than ten subordinates left by his side, they all looked in a daze. Guo Junzong, who was sitting on the ground, was angry and depressed, and at a loss.
At this time, seeing that there were no soldiers on the east bank chasing him, they took off their wet trousers, tugged the water stains dry, and hung them in the sun with bare legs. They were indescribable in a mess. They even had no face to face their subordinates who were also fleeing to the west bank.
Why is the Xu family's wild tiger so fierce?
It’s okay if he is strong, but why is he so reckless every time and is so unreasonable when he takes action, but he always stabs them just right at the weakest and most powerless part?
Did they do something that is harmful to the gods, and did they favor those reckless people?
It took a long time before they picked up the sword and spear in despair and gathered the defeated soldiers northward along the coast. However, after gathering more than a hundred men, they did not dare to stay on the west coast, but fled straight west.
They had lost all their mules and horses, for fear that Huaiyuan Township Ying would cross the river to chase after them, so their legs could not run away from four legs.
The coalition also has strongholds on the West Bank, but after the previous defeat, how could they dare to avoid these equally thin camps? Isn't it lucky to escape once?
And they also saw the guards in these strongholds, and were also panicked at this time. Perhaps they would abandon Sixi and flee before the main force of Huaiyuan Township Camp entered the west bank?
"Old Guo, next time we bump into that rude tiger, we should not let those subordinates who are not good at blocking it. We should join forces to kill him, and we will not be so embarrassed again!" Fleeing westward, Pan Chenghu did not forget to sum up the painful lesson of this defeat with Guo Jun.
"Maybe!" Guo Junjue secretly thought about whether he and Pan Chenghu could really suppress Manghu on the battlefield, hold the reins, stop the donkey that was snatched from his crotch, look at the surrounding terrain, and say to Pan Chenghu, "That Zhou Tian is a treacherous and escaped from Xizhai Gate as soon as possible. I don't know where to go now! I see that next time I meet Manghu on the battlefield, I will pull Zhou Tian last time, and maybe I have a chance of winning."
"Old Guo, don't be ambitious to others. That bully is strong, but we will never be able to fight together. What does it take for Zhou Tian to do if he has no eggs?" Pan Chenghu said.
"That's right, but there are many masters of the Xu clan beside Manghu. Needless to say, Xu Wukun and Xu Wujiang are the younger generation. Xu Xin'an, the small whirlwind gun, entered the village today. He is also powerful. How can we have the chance to join forces with the Yin-headed Manghu?" Guo Jun sighed.
"Xu Wuji is definitely the number one figure, but why didn't he wear armor today? The Xu clan soldiers seem to be led by Xu Wujiang? It's really strange. Xu Wuji is Xu Wufu's terror. Xu Wufu doesn't need him, but instead uses Xu Wujiang who doesn't like him at first sight. What's more, Xu Wujiang led the Wu soldiers to escape from the inspection department before, and he hasn't escaped the charges yet?"
Xiema Mountain is next to Yuhuangling, and on weekdays, they mainly rely on extortion of Xu's filial piety. Pan Chenghu is very familiar with the subtle grievances within the Xu clan. They are now thirty miles away from Baijian River. They are relieved and have also figured out some smells.
"Are there anything strange about it?"
Guo Jun was judged to be unfamiliar with the interpersonal relationships of the Xu clan, but he had served in the Jingsheng Army and was definitely considered first-class in Tongbai Mountain. He still knew that Xu Wuli was the first-class person.
Guo Junsen knew that Pan Chenghu was a very high-profile figure. He still took Xu Wuli seriously and guessed that he should have competed with Xu Wuli. He frowned and said, "Xu Wuli is powerful and knows military affairs. If the village camp really wants to gather on a large scale, there is no reason why Xu Wufu will not recommend Xu Wuli..."
Guo Jun was judging, Pan Chenghu was thinking randomly, but he couldn't guess what the situation was. Seeing that he was about to reach the fork in the old Huaidu village, they became embarrassed again:
Just like this, they went to see Chen Zixiao, Zhong Changqing, Gao Xiangzhong and others?
It would be fine if they were sarcastic. Will they put the responsibility for the defeat of Baijianhe on the heads of the two of them, and will his mother learn to sing a play of killing Ma Su with tears?
Then they must not die unjustly?
Guo Jun judged that Pan Chenghu was not a kind person, so how could he not prevent others from taking the opportunity to attack and seize their territory and subordinates?
…………
…………
It may be more than half an hour to truly be called a battle period.
This also counts the time when Xu Huai took the lead in boarding the team from the starting position to approach the enemy camp.
However, it was not until afternoon that the drowned corpses were salvaged along the Baijian River along the Huaiyuan River.
Inside and outside the thief camp, the bandit soldiers killed with swords, guns, bows and spears may be more than one hundred people.
However, from the Tiaohutan to the north to the Baijian River and the Huai River, there were more than 300 drowned corpses salvaged by noon, and it was even more unsubstantiable to capture the enemy.
This is also a blessing for Deng Gui to connect the Junzhai with the street market, he had long ordered a huge rope made of bamboo strips between the Junzhai and the Huaiyuan street market to block the river, so that he could intercept all the drowned corpses and rescue more than a hundred thieves who fell into the water, but did not ask them to be washed into the Huai River.
Xu Huai sat on the blood-stained wall of the North Village in Juhutan Village.
After July and a half, the weather was not that hot, but the scorching sun shone on the turbid Baijian River, and my eyes were still shining.
The rain is abundant in summer and autumn, and the streams and rivers in Tongbai Mountain are also vast in water. The reeds are flooded with green grass tips on the water.
The bandit army also built several camps on the west bank of Baijian River to encircle the army camp from the west, but the bandit army of Juehutan was defeated too quickly and miserably. More than a thousand bandit soldiers on the west bank had no courage to defend these simple strongholds, and they fled westward before noon, leaving behind a disgrace.
Xu Sihu, Zhonghe and others also led a team of troops to enter the west bank of Baijian River, and have recovered two strongholds on the west bank next to Baijian River.
Going westward is not impossible to recover more strongholds and villages, but now it is mainly limited by too few people and cannot disperse troops at will.
However, with the power of this battle, the threat of bandits east of Baijian River was completely lifted. Deng Gui summoned the village camps east of Baijian River to bravely join the township camp. I think there would be no further resistance.
The troops in the township camp will be replenished on a larger scale soon, and it will not be too late to officially enter the west bank of Baijian River.
"Be good, Longlidong, even the village of 2,000 Zhuguan would not be defeated so quickly! Master Zheng, how could I have scared these guys in the past? "Zheng Tu climbed up the wall of the village and looked northwest at the dead bodies salvaged along the coast. It was unbelievable that they won the battle in the Tiger Beach?
"...My little master, you are so fierce that you are so fierce. Seeing you covered in blood from the village and climbing up to the wall again, Xu Heng was trembling with his legs!" Zheng Tu was so excited. Although he had no chance to go into battle today, he followed Deng Gui and others to watch the battle, but was so excited that he was like eating ginseng fruit. He kept talking about the reactions of the people he saw, saying, "Deng Langjun and Wang Bing praised you for your sword and bow, saying that if you can write a strategy, you will definitely be in the Ministry of War exam; or go directly to take the Jueluo..."
Of course, the military practice emphasizes both civil and military affairs. Deng Guiwu practiced his origins, but when it comes to literary affairs, he may be much worse than those of Wang Bing, but he is not inferior to ordinary scholars.
Considering that some of the generals and soldiers who have made meritorious soldiers in the army are more capable and have weaker literary affairs, the imperial examinations also set up special sciences to further lower the standards for assessing literary affairs such as countermeasures, and the assessment standards for bow, sword, riding and shooting are higher.
Therefore, the recommended candidates among the imperial guards are basically those with strong skills.
Under the tradition of respecting literature and suppressing martial arts, the number of candidates in the Martial Arts and Eulogy Department of the Martial Arts and Eulogy Departments is far less than that of the Wenju. Therefore, Deng Gui said this as a very high praise.
Xu Huai smiled faintly, not saying anything.
Everyone was very excited and found it incredible to be able to win another victory in such a destructive way. Xu Huai was a little excited, and he felt that everyone in the court might also be addicted to a kind of unconscious confidence and ignore the arrival of the crisis...
