Ding Zhan rode his horse to the front of the generals of Xirong, swept the generals, pointed at the young general and asked: "Are you the Xuesha leader Jie Fenghuo?"
The young general glanced at Ding Zhan coldly and said nothing.
? Ding Zhan was not angry, and grinned and said: "Looking at you like this, you can exchange it for a thousand taels of gold. When the brothers drink in the future, they will not forget the gift today." After saying this, he ignored the looks in the eyes of the Xirong generals.
Angry, he laughed and rode away.
After several fights, the number of Xuesha was reduced to less than a thousand. Under the strong bows and crossbows of the soldiers of the Huqi camp, they supported each other and walked towards the foot of Luocao Mountain. The Xirong Xuesha, which had been famous for a while, was now in a mess, and the soldiers were stumbling along dejectedly.
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Ding Zhan separated the prisoners, and the Xuesha generals were heavily guarded. The remaining soldiers were driven under a boulder, and Jie Fenghuo followed the Xuesha soldiers. The veteran general was slightly happy when he saw this, and when they separated
He quietly glanced at a Blood Sand Guard and ordered him to wait for the opportunity. The Death Guard nodded slightly. The camp was in chaos and no one paid attention.
After placing the Xuesha soldiers, Hu Qi camp set up camp and got busy.
After traveling for hundreds of miles and several fierce battles, the soldiers were all hungry. As soon as they set up camp, they began to live and cook.
Although Xuesha was defeated by Hu Qiying after a long battle and was exhausted, they were still known as the most elite tribesmen in Xirong. The Dagan soldiers were all overjoyed, and they went to the Xuesha prisoners and pointed them out.
They laughed and mocked, and the Xirong soldiers obeyed and no one said a word.
Ding Zhan took a few personal guards and went into the mountain to report the victory to Li Luo. After the soldiers in the camp finished eating, they went back to their tents, and the camp became quiet. It was a cold winter in Xifu, and many soldiers from Dagan gathered together to light a fire to keep warm and resist the severe cold.
Jie Fenghuo slowly calmed down and looked around. After being escorted here, the Dagan soldiers never gave the Xuesha captives a grain of rice. Everyone was hungry, and several people argued with each other. They were shot to death by the guards.
Only then did he calm down. Jie Fenghuo was secretly cruel in his heart and kept a calm expression on his face, thinking that after escaping, he would cut the Mu Tianlang soldiers into pieces.
After quite a while, around the time when it was almost time, there were soldiers coming in and out of the Dagan Huqi camp from time to time. I don’t know what they were doing, but they didn’t see Ding Zhan. After entering the mountain, they didn’t seem to see him before returning to the camp.
Dagan rarely sends out troops when the weather is freezing. The soldiers seem to be unable to bear the weather in Xifu. Every hour, soldiers take turns guarding the Xuesha prisoners, but most of them are shivering from the cold.
Jie Fenghuo secretly paid attention, silently counting the time that the Dagan soldiers were guarding. Before the change of guard, he would get into trouble and look for an opportunity to rush out. Jie Fenghuo took advantage of the cover of the Xuesha soldiers and quietly whispered to several death guards.
, ordered everyone to listen to his orders, capture and kill the soldiers of the Daganhu Cavalry Camp, seize the horses and rush out of the military camp.
Everyone in Xuesha huddled together. They seemed to be unable to bear the severe cold in Xifu, so they stayed close together.
If it weren't for the Dagan soldiers who were surrounded by strong bows and swords, they would look like dead corpses at first glance. No one moved for a while, let alone the sound of conversations. The only sound was the cold wind blowing in the wilderness.
Over the sound of flags.
Jie Fenghuo secretly calculated the time, and suddenly a voice came from behind the stone. Through the boulder, the speaker seemed not to notice that there were other people here.
I heard someone ask: "Lao Lu, our Huqi camp has won a big victory today. When we get back to Shuangfeng camp, the general and Marshal Liu will have to reward these brothers."
"Today is not a big victory. Xirong is old and weak. There are only a few thousand cavalry, but we, Mu Tianlang, have tens of thousands. If we still can't take it, we don't have to wait for the general to say anything. We can find a place to kill them ourselves."
The general who had just spoken out smiled and said: "Lao Lu, you can't say that. After all, Xirong Xuesha can be regarded as an elite division. They were completely wiped out by our Hu Qi battalion in Luocao Mountain. This military merit is given to the Dagan armies, too.
No small feat.”
The general surnamed Lu seemed to ponder for a moment, and did not refute any more. He just said casually: "Whether it counts as merit or not will be decided by the Holy One and the general. All we have to do is do our duty."
"Haha, Lao Lu, you still don't change your timid temperament. You were like this in Youzhou before, and you still have the same virtue when you get to Mu Tianlang. It's really boring to be friends with you. I hope that the Xirong court will have more time.
If you send some people to die, you can have more bragging rights when you return to Dagan."
"Shi Zechen, be silent," the general surnamed Lu said in a serious voice: "In today's battle, our army cannot win because of calculated calculations but not care. In addition, after a long battle in the bloody sand, the remnants of the army are tired, the horses are tired, and they despise our army.
This is a lucky win. Don't forget that we are in Dizhou now. If we are not careful, we may be in danger of annihilating the entire army. General Ding is walking on thin ice. How can you and I be careless? Besides, you are leading a school.
The cavalry are the elites in the battalion. If even you think like this, the whole battalion of soldiers will underestimate the enemy like you, huh, there won't even be anyone to collect the corpses."
General Xu Shilu said something serious, and for a while there was no sound between the two of them. Only the footsteps of the two people walking behind the stone were heard. After a while, Shi Zechen replied with a hint of self-deprecation: "Yes, here
It’s not Youzhou anyway, and it’s far away from Camp Shuangfeng, so it’s always right to be cautious.”
The general surnamed Lu also felt that what he had just said was a bit excessive, and his tone became more conciliatory: "Your Majesty, the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers are in our hands, so we must not be careless."
Shi Zechen laughed and said: "Don't worry, Commander Lu, the general will get your order in the end."
I heard the general surnamed Lu sigh. He thought that the two had a close personal relationship, but there was nothing he could do. Shi Zechen continued in a serious voice: "Brother Lu is right, but the younger brother is indeed a little forgetful. There is also a tiger general from Xirong in Dizhou."
If the Qiang is not eliminated for one day, I, the Shepherd of Heavenly Wolf, will be in even greater danger in Dizhou."
General Lu did not answer, but Shi Zechen asked in surprise: "Lao Lu, what's wrong?"
There was silence for a while behind the stone, and the two of them paused for a while. General Lu lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "Zechen, after today, pay more attention to Yingchou Gorge. Don't worry too much about the Qiang line."
"Hey, why is this?"
"Stop asking and remember not to talk nonsense. The coach has his own plans. Just know it and don't spread it to others."
"Lao Lu, you are the deputy commander of the camp. Did General Ding tell you something?" Shi Zechen asked.
The general surnamed Lu seemed unwilling to say anything more. He hummed, turned around the boulder, and suddenly saw the Xirong prisoners of war behind the stone. He was startled and shouted: "Who is it?"
The guarding officers and soldiers hurriedly returned the greeting and said: "Commander of the Return Road, prisoners of Xirong Xuesha."
General Lu raised his eyebrows and said, "How can we place them here?"
A deputy lieutenant of Yihui stepped forward and said: "This is what General Ding ordered."
"Where's General Ding?"
"I went into the mountain to report the military situation to the general, but I haven't come back yet." (To be continued.)
