Zhang Xiaowu has always felt that there is something wrong with the Sixth Regiment. It does not have the murderous spirit and vigor of the Twenty-seventh Regiment. Now he finally understands that the root cause of the problem lies with Cheng Chu. As the saying goes, if a soldier is raging, a general will be raging. Cheng Chu is like this
The commander-in-chief of the army, No.
It’s strange that the Sixth Regiment can fight. Gu Yong left them behind not to protect them, but to protect himself. Otherwise, with the despondent energy of the Sixth Regiment’s “Italian comrades in World War II”, there would be no need to fight. Just raise the white flag and surrender.
, so as not to be angered to death by one of your own people.
Zhang Xiaowu thought for a while and asked: "Old Hu, since Mucheng is the rear camp of the Qinglong Army, then food and grass supplies should be transported from Mucheng to the front line, but why do I rarely see the troops of the Sixth Regiment escorting food and grass? These days, I
I only saw three groups of troops, and they were just escorting some light things, not food and grass at all."
Hu Sanwan stroked his beard and smiled: "They are transporting spices, sea salt, and some medicines. We don't need to transport food to the front line, because the plain between Jincheng and Yashan occupied by the Qinglong Army is the famous Yajin Granary.
, there’s never enough food to eat.”
Zhang Xiaowu was very interested and asked: "I have always heard people talk about Crow Gold Granary. What exactly is Crow Gold Granary?"
"The Yaojin Granary is ten thousand acres of fertile farmland between Yashan and Jincheng. It is the only piece of land in the Saibei wilderness suitable for growing food. The Jialan River makes a half-turn around the Yaojin Granary. After more than ten years of water conservancy dam construction
, these ten thousand acres of fertile farmland are irrigated
With sufficient irrigation and fertile land, the food produced here in a year is enough to feed a million troops." Hu Sanwan said with emotion, "The Crown Prince's 200,000 Qinglong Army really does not need rear support for food and grass, but they lack salt, spices and
drug."
Zhang Xiaowu rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then said: "No wonder the Qinglong Army is not in a hurry to launch a general attack on the alien coalition. They are delaying their opponents. The alien coalition has hundreds of thousands of people. As long as the Qinglong Army fights with them, it will be enough to kill the coalition! I
I used to think that the Crown Prince was a fool, but now it seems that may not be the case."
"I don't know if he is a fool, but Military Master Gu is not a fool. He is the only scholar in the Holy Han who has both civil and military talents." Hu Sanwan said.
The next day, a group of frontline scout cavalry escorted a group of Tartar prisoners back from the front line. After passing through the epidemic village, more than a hundred injured prisoners of war were left behind in the epidemic village. The leading captain saw the inside and outside of the epidemic village and praised: "
I have passed by this epidemic village many times, why is it so clean inside and outside now?"
Xiao Kai hurriedly introduced Zhang Xiaowu. After hearing this, the captain immediately slapped his thigh and shouted: "Zhang Xiaowu, the sharpshooter. So you are Zhang Xiaowu, the sharpshooter of the 27th Regiment. You shot back a million barbarians with three arrows?"
"Thank you, thank you. It's all luck." Zhang Xiaowu said modestly, but he thought in his heart that the alien army that night could only be 20,000 to 30,000 people at most. If there were really millions of barbarians, they would not even be able to see the edge.
The school captain Lang laughed and said: "Jiao Zhan, courtesy name Pingzhi, I have heard of your name for a long time. Why are you here guarding the epidemic village? It is really a waste of talent."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Captain Jiao is very fond of me. It is the bounden duty of military commanders to obey military orders. We will carry out the arrangements arranged by the superior officers."
Jiao Zhan shook his head and said regretfully: "When I return to the third regiment, I will definitely report it to the general and try to transfer you to my unit. Only then can we make the best use of everything and make the best use of our talents. Looking at a group of sick and dead ghosts all day long is really a waste of your archery skills.
A good man aims for a thousand miles, your future is on the battlefield, not on the mediocre life here."
This Jiao Zhan has a bold personality. Although he is enthusiastic about his talents, he doesn't think much. Zhang Xiaowu likes this person's character very much and chats with him more. Then he discovers that the two of them are actually from the same hometown and are both from Yongzhou. Jiao Zhan shouted
: "There are many heroes in Yongzhou, it's true. I don't have time to talk much today. When you come to my third group, I will have a drink with you."
After handing over the wounded prisoners, Jiao Zhan immediately took the people away. Before leaving, he told Zhang Xiaowu that if he received an order to be transferred, he must inform him as soon as possible.
Zhang Xiaowu thanked him but said that Brother Jiao was too complimentary and that his own abilities were insufficient. However, Jiao Zhan's attitude warmed his heart. Many people in the army still felt aggrieved by what happened to the 27th Regiment. Maybe there would be such a day in the future.
, someone rectified the name of the 27th Regiment. When he thought of this, Zhang Xiaowu felt much better.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a roar in the backyard.
Hu Sanwan rolled around and shouted: "Shi Chang, Lord Shi Chang, the wounded prisoners rioted, they killed a soldier and jumped over the wall to escape!"
"How dare you, thief!" Zhang Xiaowu pulled out his knife and rushed into the courtyard. He saw a few wounded prisoners still climbing over the wall. The defenders were suppressing other wounded prisoners. Those who were climbing over the wall with weapons were surprisingly the ones who were climbing over the wall just today.
The new captives sent here must be difficult to manage. They still have unruliness in their hearts, but Epidemic Village is a place that does not allow unruliness to exist.
Zhang Xiaowu shouted loudly, grabbed the sword of the soldier beside him, and went to kill him.
Several prisoners of war were resisting, but they didn't expect that Zhang Xiaowu's sword skills were as fast as lightning. A white light flashed like a flash, and then he slashed a prisoner of war from the left shoulder to the right waist, splitting him into two pieces alive. The other prisoners of war had not had time.
In response, Zhang Xiaowu cut the two prisoners of war who were carrying wooden sticks into four sections with a simple knife. The knife cut too fast. The three prisoners of war who were cut into two sections were not dead for a while, and their internal organs and intestines were leaked.
All over the place, lying on the ground and screaming.
After killing three people, Zhang Xiaowu shouted again: "Everyone lies down on the ground, and we will kill them all while standing!" The prisoners of war were so frightened that their hair stood on end and they quickly lay down on the ground in fear.
At this time, Hu Sanwan, Zhao Suo and others reacted. Zhao Suo rushed forward with red eyes. He rushed up with a knife and slashed, instantly killing seven or eight prisoners of war who were still standing. Xiao Kai also took the opportunity to climb to the top.
He opened his bow and shot arrows everywhere, and he shot to death several wounded prisoners who tried to move.
After more than a dozen people died, the wounded prisoners finally became more honest.
Zhang Xiaowu glanced at the corpses on the ground and the other prisoners of war lying on the ground, and said angrily: "Hu Sanwan, lock up all the living ones, and give each of them twenty blows first to kill their hostility! Zhao Suo,
If you are injured but not dead, you send them on their way."
"Here." Hu Sanwan and Zhao Suo immediately obeyed the order.
Zhang Xiaowu waved to Xiao Kai who was at the top. Xiao Kai jumped down and stepped forward to greet him. Zhang Xiaowu ordered: "Hu Sanwan, you are responsible for this place! Xiao Kai, prepare to follow me over the wall to chase down the escaped prisoners! They can't escape."
How far away is the plain, thousands of miles away, I want to see where they can hide."
"Here!" Xiao Kai took the order.
A prisoner raised his head, as if he wanted to remember his enemy. Zhang Xiaowu was very focused. His eyes swept across the crowd, and he suddenly felt murderous intent. When he saw someone raising his head with an evil look in his eyes, he immediately pointed to that person's location.
Said: "Xiao Kai, shoot him to death."
The man lowered his head in fear.
Xiao Kai drew his bow and arrow and didn't know who to shoot. Zhang Xiaowu rushed over with a knife, pinned the man who raised his head to the ground, raised the knife and chopped off the person's head.
The new prisoners of war finally understood that if they made the slightest move at this moment, they would definitely die.
