Chapter 956: Problems on the Battlefield
Time passed little by little, and the night came very quickly, and in the middle of the river, Fei Qian was still in the mood to think about the so-called special operation at this time. In the Han Dynasty, it was too difficult to form special soldiers who could go up the mountain, go into the water, touch the dark, climb over the wall, hide, and camouflage.
In the current situation, if Fei Qian hadn't used the trade with the Hu people early on to keep replenishing the soldiers with certain cattle and sheep offal, although not all the soldiers, these veterans basically got rid of the night blindness caused by lack of nutrition, and there was a way to carry out the night crossing, otherwise, it is estimated that it will become difficult to move an inch as soon as it gets dark......
Well, there seems to be something that has been overlooked by myself.
An idea suddenly popped into Fei Qian's mind, but like a flash of light, it disappeared into his mind with the sound of rushing water, and he couldn't find it for a while.
It's not that I turned back to the night attack, because as Li Dao and other Xiliang soldiers, the Qiang people are the majority, and the Qiang people eat more cattle and sheep, and their eyesight will be relatively strong......
Fei Qian tried his best to support, and when he felt that his strength was gradually exhausted, suddenly the war horse was shocked, and it seemed that he had stepped on the ground, but there was inevitably some silt on the riverbank, and the war horse stepped on it several times in succession before it could be regarded as completely standing up, Zhang Liao, who had been waiting on the shore for a long time, and a few soldiers hurriedly stepped forward, pushing and pulling, and immediately sent Fei Qian and the war horse to the shore together.
"Prince," Zhang Liao asked, handing over a piece of wrung out kudzu cloth, "how?" Do you feel unwell? ”
Fei Qian shook his head, and just wiped the residual water on his face, the war horse next to him couldn't wait to stand up straight, shook his mane for a while, and threw out all the muddy water on his body, and made Fei Qian's face confused again.
Fei Qian's face was helpless and looked at the big eyes of the war horse, and then patted the horse's neck, asking his subordinates to lead the war horse away, and then said to Zhang Liao: "At the current speed, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time...... Wen Yuan, you send some men first, go to the north to find a sheltered and hidden place, and raise some fire to bake the clothes first......"
Although it is now about to enter the summer, but the temperature is still relatively low at night, and the swimming crossing is naturally full of water, so the night breeze blows, and you may catch a cold if you are not careful, and you are not sure that you were not beaten down by the Xiliang soldiers, but were harmed by the wind and cold, which is more embarrassing.
Fei Qian turned his head, and took advantage of the light that had not yet completely darkened, and saw that the soldiers on the side were using a few cowhide ropes to drag the bundled armor with great effort, and the other few pesos were like sugar gourds, one after another, wearing soldiers, slowly swimming towards here, as if everyone's movements were more neat than their own.
Fei Qian looked at these people and couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Some people say that modern people are better than ancient people, and maybe in some ways this may be the case, but in terms of physical fitness, it seems that the people of the Han Dynasty are significantly better than modern people. Don't say anything else, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao don't mention this kind of martial artist, these soldiers alone, there are few short-sightedness, night blindness is caused by unbalanced nutrition, whether it is marching or fighting, these soldiers are more able to survive, eat less two meals a day, walk longer, but still in good spirits, it seems that there is endless energy in the body.
Although he has been a lot stronger during this period of time, it seems that he is still a little bit worse than these soldiers......
Well, I don't need to fight in person, I am a commander who eats my brains, not a general who eats physical strength, so I can only comfort myself like this.
In the distance to the north, you can faintly see a dark mountain shadow, although there are not many people coming and going at this ferry now, but the traces left by the previous people trampling on it, but it winds north.
A few miles away, there seems to be some sparse woods that could be used as a place for a short stay and tidying up.
Zhang Liao had led some soldiers who had crossed the river before, and they were stopping on the bank of the river, some were helping to pull the cowhide rope, and some were taking off their water-soaked clothes, and then wringing them dry, and the war horse also needed to be taken care of a little, whether it was the war horse itself, or the belly belt and saddle should also be cleaned......
Zhang Liao was standing beside Fei Qian, just about to say something, when he suddenly stopped, Danfeng's eyes narrowed, and then he frowned and turned his head to look around.
"Be on guard!" Zhang Liao suddenly ordered loudly, holding the spear in his hand with his backhand, and then stood in front of Fei's sneak.
At this moment, more than a dozen black shadows suddenly appeared behind the small dirt bag in the distance in front of the side, and a few torches were thrown out at once, accompanied by the sound of the torches breaking the air, and seven or eight arrows were already roaring, and they shot towards the place where Fei was diving!
******************
On top of Tongguan, Yang Biao is already stationed here.
With the military report sent from the front, one was more optimistic than the other, the battle was going well, Tongguan was conquered, Zheng County surrendered, when the whole army of Huangfu Song waved westward, Yang Biao could no longer sit still in Hongnong, and moved forward with the team to Chang'an.
After all, Hongnong is still some distance away from Chang'an, and although Tongguan is simple, it is still a relatively good place after all, Yang Biao is temporarily settled here, in order to wait for the recovery of Kyoto, he will drive into Chang'an at the fastest speed.
Speaking of which, Yang Biao did not hold the position of the third prince before, but also served as a general in the five senses, a guard lieutenant and other positions, so the commander of the army has a little bit of experience, but it can't be compared with the generals, so it is closer to the battlefield, it is not unacceptable, after all, starting from Tongguan to Chang'an, compared to walking from Hongnong, it is much faster, although five or six days is not too long, but the court is changing rapidly, and one more day of delay may be one more change.
And if Huangfu Song really commanded the army to enter the city of Kyoto, Yang Biao himself was still staying in Hongnong at this time, this ......
It's hard to say.
And Huangfu Song has his current record with the support of Yang Biao and the Hongnong clan, if he was stepped on by Huangfu Song, then Yang Biao himself has become a big joke?
So Yang Biao not only moved forward to Tongguan, but even wrote a letter to Wang Yi in Hedong, and said the situation here in general, after all, the county guard Wang Yi in Hedong is also more or less his ally, and he has also made some efforts, and this merit of recovering Chang'an and Kyoto is more or less a share of profits, which can be regarded as some rewards for allies who are willing to follow him, and also shows the bearing of the Yang family, the crown family in the world.
Changan!
What Yang Biao is thinking about now is to quickly take Chang'an City! End this war sooner, and make sure that this great achievement is unique to his faction!
However, Yang Biao is now over half a hundred years old after all, and he is older, so it is inevitable that there will be some problems with his muscles and bones, although Yang Biao is the top figure in the Han Dynasty, but since Dong Zhuo entered Beijing in Luoyang, he has been raising troops until now, on the one hand, he has to be busy with infighting, and on the other hand, he has to deal with the people of Xiliang, which is really hard.
Especially in the design from Chang'an to let the Xiliang people blast Wang Yun down, but smashed his own feet, escaped in defeat, from Pingyang all the way to Hongnong, these days ups and downs, sorrows and joys, and Xiliang Ma Teng Han Sui suddenly appeared in the west of Chang'an, a carry, and the cunning guy of Pingyang Fei Qian is stirring up the situation in it, and he has to raise money and food from these scholars in Hongnong......
Yang Biao suddenly felt that he was really old, and he felt that this war was really exhausted, and he couldn't wait to end it sooner.
Now it's finally good, Huangfu Song's military report said so surely, it seems that it won't be long before he should enter Chang'an City with a full guard of honor.
As long as you enter Chang'an in advance, then all your hard work will be rewarded......
It was with this mood that Yang Biao, surrounded by the guards of the brigade, embarked on the road to the west and stationed in Tongguan.
Tongguan has just experienced a war, many of the traces left by the battle at that time have not been eliminated, a large number of corpses exposed to the wilderness, plus it is summer, the corpses soon began to rot, exuding a disgusting smell. Therefore, Yang Biao is located in Tongguan, so he must arrange it well, so as not to let those smells smoke your body......
Although Yang Biao said that it was good to be simple, but for the crown clan in the world, no matter how simple it was, it was not much simpler, although he was temporarily stationed in Tongguan, compared to the original Yang Biao's Hongnong's place, it was not much better.
There is no way to change anything in the hardware conditions, and the software is always more or less comprehensive.
As the third duke, the guard of honor of the carriage and horse for his own use is always wanted, and the four-by-four canopy car must be prepared, and each car must be equipped with three to four people, plus the attendants and slaves who follow and serve Yang Biao, personal guards, etc., the number of these people who belong to Yang Biao alone is hundreds, and this is not counting the soldiers who directly belong to Yang Biao's ordinary guards.
There are also the furnishings in the lobby bedroom and other rooms, the incense burner pendants used and all kinds of bits and pieces, and there are three large baggage carts.
The sky has darkened, and there are noisy voices everywhere in Tongguan, and the troops of Hedong Wangyi have all been handed over to Huangfu Song for dispatch and use, so now all the people in Yang Biao's hands are raised in Hongnong. Zhao Wen was sent to Zheng County to send a group of people and soldiers to Zheng County, otherwise there would be even more people in Tongguan now!
Yang Biao lived in the original Tongguan Order's mansion, although this kind of house cannot be compared with his own house, but after all, it is far away from those stinky places outside the city, plus the incense in the house, so it is somewhat okay.
Although the time for late breastfeeding has passed, Yang Biao's exclusive kitchen servants still prepared some fragrant meat soup and asked the slave maid to bring it to Yang Biao. This cook is the old man in the Hongnong family, and he also knows Yang Biao's appetite and hobbies, so he is naturally more intimate, knowing that Yang Biao is old and can't eat much at a meal, but he will be hungry at night, so it has become a practice to prepare some delicious meat soup after nightfall.
The important thing is that the meat soup is fresh and tender, if it is cooked for too long, the meat will become old and dry, and the taste will be very different, so as Yang Biao's cooks, they naturally understand this truth, and they boiled the marinated meat strips a little, and then put them into the hot beans, and then poured some sauce, with some washed tender pennies, and it is OK, so that the meat soup has some residual heat when the slave and maid pass it, which is just fresh and tender, and it melts in the mouth.
Yang Biao naturally eats finely, but the other personnel in Tongguan are not so particular, anyway, it is a big-headed soldier, and they will deal with it casually, eating and drinking are all casual, and even the sleeping place has to be clustered together. Now there are so many people in Tongguan for a while, plus there are materials piled up, and the matters are complicated, and no one has time to sort out in time, so even if there are more than a dozen people in some rooms in Tongguan, there is still no way to supply all the people to live, so some people can only set up tents on both sides of the street.
As for the rest......
It's all about to happen.
Such a congested situation caused several soldiers who came from the west to deliver information could only shout to give way to these congested personnel, while helplessly walking through the narrow passage, and stepped on a yellow and white thing that I didn't know was left by that guy, and immediately frowned and scolded bad luck, and then rubbed on the tent on the side at will, and walked away......
The soldiers in the tent are naturally very angry, but what can they do, passing on the military situation is the top priority, if they come forward to theorize or have any actions, they must be charged with obstructing the military situation, and it is light to beat dozens of canes, maybe they will lose their heads!
The military marquis took the soldiers who passed on the military information all the way in, and arrived at the mansion where Yang Biao was temporarily stationed in Tongguan, and Yang Biao had just run out of meat soup at this time, and was about to rest, when he heard about the emergency military situation, he hurriedly put on his robe again and went to the side hall......
Shouldn't it?
There are no longer a few troops given to Huangfu Song, and Huang Fu Song is a battlefield general, so it won't be much worse, right?
Yang Biao could only comfort himself like this first, and then took the bamboo tube sealed with fire paint from the hands of the soldiers, checked it roughly, and hurriedly opened it, and after a few glances up and down, his heart suddenly ......
Sink.
Arrive.
Finish.
Bottom.
There were still some blood stains on the military scarf, and it was obvious that the situation at that time was already embarrassing to the extreme......
Pinching this thin military scarf, Yang Biao's blood just sank to the bottom with his heart, and instantly "soared" to the top of his head, and his face was flushed!
At this moment, Yang Biao was trembling with anger, he desperately wanted to calm down, but he couldn't calm down. In the hall, two incense burners with spices were slowly pouring out warm fragrances, which should have felt extremely comfortable, but now Yang Biao just felt a chill and then a burst of heat on his body......
Damn it!
Huangfu Song is so incompetent!
Twenty thousand troops! Jingran didn't even have the strength to parry, and was chased and killed by the Xiliang thieves all the way, and there was not one out of ten!
Now there are more than 6,000 people left in Zheng County, of which there are only more than 1,000 pawns, 1,000 cavalry, and the rest are auxiliaries and people!
Li Dao Ma Teng's four or five thousand elite cavalry is still in the Xinfeng area, who knows when it will attack!
God knows how long Huangfu Song's rice bucket can last!
He also brazenly sent people to ask for help!
But......
Is it okay if you don't come to the rescue?
