Suddenly, he heard someone in the crowd shouting. Then, everyone around him who was originally quiet began to shout and run. One person even hit the sack on his shoulder when he was running hard.
He shouldered a blow, and the huge force almost knocked him down without preparation.
"Run!" His mind went blank, and he followed the others and ran toward the trench that was less than ten feet away. He saw that the fastest person had already reached the trench and was about to stand up.
As he poured out the soil from his pocket, his keen ears heard a loud shout from the high platform opposite, "Fire the arrow!"
"Boohoo!"
He hurriedly looked up and saw a mass of black arrows with a deadly cold light falling rapidly towards him like a dark cloud.
Next, there was first the sound of arrows piercing into muscles, and then a scream.
Huang Ang saw that the man in front of him had a long arrow pierced through his thigh, and his whole body was nailed to the ground. He was crying in pain there. The man was still eating and laughing together when he had dinner in the morning. When he saw
He immediately shouted for help.
He quickly avoided the other party's eyes that looked forward to pain. He had to seize the time between the two rounds of arrows, otherwise he knew that his fate would be the same as the other party. At this moment, he exerted his strength.
With his strength, he immediately showed the strong physique of a monk. In just two steps, he arrived in front of the trench, and immediately poured the soil in his pocket into the trench.
He couldn't throw away his pocket, because each person only had one.
He had no choice. If these two trenches could not be filled up, they and others would not be able to stop.
Wearing a black leather armor, Qin Si looked at the slow progress ahead and couldn't help but frown. Before that, he had come to inspect twice in person. He had a high regard for the defense of the refugee camp.
He thought that Li Yang was worthy of being born into a family of generals for generations.
The positions of the two trenches were dug very delicately. They were just so that everyone on the high platform of the camp could shoot but those from the bottom up could not. The first trench was the shooting distance of ordinary body-refining monks, and the second trench was
The shooting distance of civilians. Under such a design, every time the attacker takes a step forward, he will be attacked by a ruthless rain of arrows from the camp.
According to his idea, before trying to attack by force, you must first consider failure. After crossing the river, you must first camp here. If you cannot attack by force, or if you cannot attack by force within one day, you can return to the camp to rest. Otherwise, during the day
If the attack fails, the nearly 100,000 troops will have to cross the river and return to the other side. This is undoubtedly a very stupid and dangerous thing. However, when he made this suggestion during the pre-battle arrangements, his colleagues said that he was overly worried.
One of Luo Shang's confidants, Supervisor Hu Yan, smiled and said: "The opponent only has a few thousand people, and among these thousands of people are old, weak, women and children. They have no time to protect themselves. How can they dare to go out to attack our army of 100,000 people.
General Qin is timid."
Seeing everyone agreeing with Hu Yan's remarks, Qin Si added: "The trench dug by the opponent is a problem that must be solved for our attack. We should have a more detailed plan. Should we first make some baffles in front to block arrows?"
Only in this way can we reduce the losses here and fill the trenches more efficiently."
Hu Bin and others said angrily in their hearts: "You, Qin Si, didn't tell you earlier and later, but you are about to attack tomorrow, so you just mentioned it. You, Qin Si, are deliberately hiding the truth. You are holding back your thoughts and want to envoy your Majesty today."
Show yourself in front of us and use our stupidity to set off your wisdom?"
At that moment, Hu Yan said again: "There is no need to go to such trouble. Our 100,000 troops are placed there, and the legs on the other side are scared and weak. It finally cleared up today. Who knows what the weather will be like in a few days? If it is the north government office
The battle between General Bo and the refugee forces is in danger, but we still stand still. What does the King of Hejian think of us? What does the imperial court think of us? "
Hu Lu's words immediately made Luo Shang, who was originally hesitant, make up his mind. At the same time, he couldn't help complaining about Qin Si, why didn't you say these words earlier?
But he didn't think about how a man like Qin Si, who was serious about his words and smiles, could get close to him. He didn't have time to go to the military camp to check and ask.
For Huang Ang and others, time passed very hard and slowly, but for Luo Shang in the rear, it passed very quickly. It was almost noon when the entire army had crossed the Pi River and arrived here.
(The vanguard, that is, Qin Si's troops, had crossed the river yesterday and built the pontoon bridge.) It was already past midnight, and the first trench still could not be broken through. The refugees' tenacity caused the front of the first trench to collapse.
It was full of dead or injured soldiers, which made it even more difficult for Huang Ang and others to travel back and forth.
Hu Yan had already noticed Luo Shang's ugly face, and immediately brought his own soldiers to the front of the battle to supervise the battle. He ordered the battle line of the supervising team to move forward to within the range of the opponent's bows and arrows, and let those who were carrying soil to fill the trenches
Local materials were collected, whether it was soil, dead people or seriously injured people, and they were all filled into the trenches.
At this time, Huang Ang was already so tired that he could hardly breathe. He was kneeling on the ground and had just pushed a severely wounded man who was still twitching, when his eyes saw an arrow shot weakly towards him. His first reaction was
He was trying to dodge, but he glanced at the half-filled trench, and his heart moved. Just when the arrow was about to hit him, he gritted his teeth and used the remaining strength, and with a flash of lightning in his right hand, he shot the already limp body.
He held the arrow in his hand. Then he screamed loudly, as if he had been shot through by the bow and arrow he was holding in his heart. His head fell forward and he rolled down the slope.
There were many dead bodies scattered on the slope. He rolled a few times and reached the bottom of the slope. He easily pulled a dead body, and then he climbed hard in the opposite direction a few times, and then took the dead body.
The corpse was placed on his body. Feeling safe, he faced down and gasped for air, slowly regaining his strength.
The place he was in was among a few pointed thin wooden piles, but he was not afraid of being buried by the dumped soil above, and because he was in the direction of the enemy camp, bows and arrows could not hit him in any case. It felt like escaping from death.
It made him feel happy involuntarily. The only thing he had to do now was to wait until it got dark, then climb up the slope, and then fly away.
After a while, he suddenly felt the light dim. Listening to the sound above, he knew that a wooden raft had finally been set up in his place without looking. Teams of people stepped on the creaking wooden rafts towards the second road.
The ditch surged away.
At this time, Huang Ang didn't care at all who would win and who would lose. He took advantage of the fact that no one could see the opportunity below, climbed deeper a few times, and then leaned on a wooden stake slowly.
He slowly regained his strength. At this time, he was sure that he would survive today.
Only then did he have time to take a closer look at the face of the corpse on top of him, and it turned out to be the man whose thigh was pierced by a long arrow in the first wave of arrows in front of him.
The arrow on his thigh had been broken into two pieces at some point, and it was pulled back and forth, exposing the bones where it was penetrated. There were traces of being stepped on all over his body and face.
One of his eyes was almost bulged out from its socket when someone stepped on it.
Seeing the miserable appearance of the other party's death, Huang Ang sighed incomprehensibly and said in his heart: "Brother, I'm sorry. It's not that I didn't save you at that time, it's actually that I was a mud Buddha crossing the river and couldn't save myself.
At night, brother, I will definitely dig a hole and bury it for you first. For the sake of me burying you, don’t resent me when you get there. What’s going on in this world? How can I say it’s messed up?
It’s a mess!”
It feels so good to be alive!
The distance between the second trench and the first trench was very short, less than two feet, but the trench was very wide and deep. When Qin Si observed at that time, he only made observations outside the first trench.
, and had never been here before. At this moment, he took the lead and led his men to come here, only to realize that this is the most dangerous place.
The bottom of the trench was covered with spikes, and the arrow rain from above was even more dense. And with so many of them crowded in such a narrow place, they couldn't do anything.
"Those behind, don't move forward any further!" He shouted angrily while using his shield to knock down a long arrow that was aimed at him.
"Everyone in the back, please move back!" After his soldiers heard this, they immediately shouted an order to the back.
Hu Yan, who was supervising the battle behind the first trench, had amazing hearing. He heard the voices of Qin Si's soldiers on such a noisy battlefield. He rolled his eyes and immediately shouted loudly: "The whole army is advancing, and those who retreat will be killed without mercy!"
He and Qin Si usually had no grudges, but they just thought that he could not let them retreat before Luo Shijun ordered them to retreat. As for whether the people in front could squeeze in, that had nothing to do with him, Hu Bin.
In the eyes of his colleagues, Hu Tie has always been a very warm-hearted and hospitable person. Every time his colleagues have fun together, Hu Tie is always there. Whenever there is something going on at any house, Hu Tie will always go over to help as soon as possible.
In Luo Shang's eyes, Hu Ye has always been a conscientious person, a person who can implement his instructions immediately. At this point, Luo Shang is always very satisfied with Hu Ye. Especially when
When there is a person like Qin Si among his subordinates.
Unlike Hu Bin, Qin Bin hardly got along with his colleagues. Every time he was present, the scene seemed very cold, and everyone seemed to be infected by his unsmiling problem. In Luo Shang's eyes, Qin Bin was even more of a thorn.
Although Luo Shang knew in his heart that this person was very capable and capable. But every time Luo Shang gave an order, Qin Si always pointed out what was wrong and what was wrong. Although Luo Shang seemed calm on the surface, but as time went by
Commander, if something happens, if he doesn't look for Qin Si, he won't look for Qin Si.
In the eyes of ordinary soldiers, Hu Bin and Qin Bin are also completely different. Hu Bin is usually more friendly, and Qin Bin is usually stricter. Hu Bin tries his best to take care of those monks who have better backgrounds, while Qin Bin treats
Everyone was treated equally. Qin Si and the soldiers under his tent ate the same food, and Hu Si always ate and drank with those who were close to him, while ordinary soldiers deducted as much as they could.
According to Hu Yan's understanding of the combination of kindness and power, it is to be kind to some people, and to be powerful to some people, and to treat them differently. Only in this way can these people wink, and can they do their best to please themselves, and they can do what they tell them to do.
Some people try their best to show themselves.
Just like how I served Luo Shang.
No matter how unreasonable what Luo Shang mentioned is, he must implement it even if he understands it, and resolutely implement it even if he doesn't understand it. In this way, Luo Shang will value himself more and more among so many subordinates, rather than Qin Si.
Hu Li didn't understand the well field reforms that Luo Shang carried out after entering Shu. In his opinion, this matter had nothing to do with him. He was from Chenggu County, Liangzhou, not from Yizhou, nor from Shu.
He doesn't understand, and he doesn't want to understand. As a person, he will never waste any extra thought on matters that have nothing to do with his own interests. But Luo Shang is his boss, and he is the boss who has promoted more than a thousand people in Yizhou.
.
In Hu Lu's eyes, the boss's affairs are his own business, whether it is a business matter or a private matter. As for matters that are not his boss's, even if it is a business matter, it has nothing to do with him.
According to the private chat among the better group of people who have been in the military-military relations department all year round, there are three things that a new official should do when he takes office. Luo Shijun has been away from Yizhou for many years, and he will not be more powerful than the Yizhou gang when he comes back.
Let's see how we can do it. Those of us who have followed Luo Shijun since Liangzhou are Luo Shijun's disciples, and we are the most trustworthy people for Luo Shijun. We should share more for Luo Shijun in order to
Do your duty of loyalty.
What Hu Yan himself was thinking about was, could it be that Luo Shijun had deliberately lost to the refugees who were not as numerous as him in the past few times? He justifiably continued to let the gang of powerful people in Shu County provide money? And then let the entire Yizhou people come out.
money?
Now that these people are dead, wouldn't it mean that the well-field system would be implemented without any pressure?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was more reliable, and the more he admired Luo Shang. Tsk tsk, no wonder Luo Shijun has been in a high position of power for so many years. Look at his method, you don't have to do it yourself to kill people.
It was precisely because he had always had this idea that at this time he didn't care about the life or death of the people in front of him or Qin Si's yelling over there, he just urged the team to keep driving people forward.
As for how many people died and whether the opponent could be captured, these were not things Hu Lu had to consider.
This had nothing to do with his own interests, so he instinctively ignored it. He only knew that Luo Shijun had never given an order to retreat, and that was enough.
"Hu Governor, what are you doing? Didn't you see that many people in front were squeezed under the trench by their own people?" Jordan saw a sudden chaos in front of him from behind, and immediately rode over, and saw this.
Seeing the situation, I couldn't help but burst into anger.
Faced with Jordan's doubts, Hu Yan said with a cold face without fear: "The army was defeated like a mountain. This retreat has affected the morale of the troops and they cannot defeat the opponent. Is this responsibility yours or mine?"
"You..." Jordan became even more angry at the opponent's words, "You can't attack the opponent like you are."
"Haha, it's too early for Qiao Yu to say that. You see, the enemy's arrow rain is no longer as dense as before. This hundred thousand army, even if they are allowed to shoot, they will be exhausted to death."
