Chapter 595 Fight for Freedom
Seeing that there were more than 50 people who dared to fight, Zhao Tong smiled with satisfaction and continued: "I think you have also heard from your father's mouth that the land you live in now is the land of the Han Dynasty.
Back then, the Han Dynasty was in civil strife, and the Hu people took the opportunity to occupy this place and enslave you. But now, the Han has regained stability, I am Zhao Tong, the son of Zhao Yun, the general of the Great Han Guard, and now I am specially ordered by His Majesty to come to unite with Kebi to deal with Budugen, and when Budugen is swept away, you will also be free again. ”
One soldier asked, "Now that we belong to Kobineng, can we also be free?" ”
Zhao Tong nodded and said: "Of course, Your Majesty has made an appointment with Kebineng, and when Budugen is pacified, Kebineng of the four counties of Hetao will also be returned to our Han, and you will also stay and become the people of Dahan again."
Then you will be able to own your own land, your own homeland, and you will no longer have to obey the orders of the Hu people, and no one will be able to enslave you. ”
"But ......" Zhao Tong changed his words and said: "But the Hu people are not of the same mind with us after all, and they originally agreed to send troops now, but they want to delay time and preserve their strength."
In this way, when Budugen gets the news, he will definitely make preparations, and it will be difficult to eliminate Budugen as soon as possible, and it may even be far away.
So I made a bet with the Hu people, as long as I led my troops to attack the Hu people, and if I won a small victory, they would immediately send troops to attack Budugen. In order to regain your freedom, in order to regain your life, are you willing to fight with me? ”
"I'm willing to fight!"
"I do, too!"
"I also have a son, even if I die, I will earn a free body for him!"
"Me too!"
After Zhao Tong's account, another part of the soldiers stood up, and this time, these soldiers accounted for about half of the total number.
And the remaining more than 400 people either had too low intelligence and didn't understand what Zhao Tong said, or they didn't dare to fight.
Seeing this, Zhao Tong ordered: "The people who dare to fight stay, and the rest of the people can go down to rest!" ”
After that, half of the school yard was gone, and only about 500 people remained.
Zhao Guang asked Zhao Tong in a low voice, "Brother, why did you let them go back?" ”
Zhao Tong explained in a low voice: "The art of war is cloudy, and the soldiers are not expensive, not to mention that these thousand people are all rabble? Therefore, I can only choose those who dare to fight among these people, and the others who are timid and afraid of things will be bad if they are brought to the battlefield. You only specialize in martial arts on weekdays, so you should learn more about the way to use soldiers. ”
Zhao Guang suddenly realized: "I see, it seems that I really have to read more military books in the future." ”
"It would be great if it could be like this!" Zhao Tong nodded, looked at the remaining five hundred soldiers in the audience and said: "There are those who can ride horses to the left, those who can shoot arrows to the right, and the rest of the people stand in the middle." ”
With Zhao Tong's order, more than 500 people in the audience were gradually divided into three groups.
The largest number in the middle was about 400 people, about 120 people on the left who could ride horses, and only about 30 people who could shoot arrows.
Because these people were born as slaves, they not only had to help the Hu people farm the land, but sometimes they would also help the Hu people graze, so there were many people who could ride horses.
But those who can shoot arrows cannot, and the Hu people will not give the Han people a chance to touch their weapons, so most of these people who can shoot arrows are the people who have been looted by the Hu people from the Han Dynasty in recent years.
Seeing this, Zhao Guang said to Zhao Tong: "Big brother, if you want to win a big victory over the Hu people, you must win by surprise, so you must set up an ambush, and you need a lot of archers, but there are too few people who can shoot arrows." It is better to summon the remaining 500 people and ask them, and gather more archers. ”
Zhao Tong said in a deep voice: "They are timid and afraid, I tempted them to regain their freedom, and they don't dare to go to the battlefield, such people, I don't want to give me 10,000." There are still ten days to go, and today I will go south alone to inspect the situation of the enemy camps, and you can train them well in the next few days, and teach some archers as much as possible. ”
Zhao Guang nodded and said, "Big brother, don't worry, I will do my best to teach them." ”
"It's only ten days, I'll get ready and leave without further ado, you can start training now!"
"Big brother, be careful!"
In the afternoon of the same day, Zhao Tong went to inspect the situation after making some preparations.
There are more than 20 Hu tribes in Yanmen County, and each Hu tribe has about a thousand young warriors, and Zhao Tong wants to attack directly to achieve a big victory, which is impossible, so he can only outwit and set up an ambush to lure the enemy out.
Therefore, which tribe to attack, the place of ambush, and the escape route must be planned well.
At present, Zhao Tong does not even have a scout, so he needs to go out in person.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the palace of the city, the Marquis of Tho Luo and his generals were drinking and having fun.
Suo Nu drank a glass of wine and said to everyone: "I heard that Zhao Guang's kid has been training soldiers for the past three days, and Zhuge Zhan is very smart, but these two are too stupid. Three days have passed, do they think that these few days can train those people into elites? ”
"Hehe, I can't help but look at their ugly appearance, chief, you're really clever at this trick!"
"Yes, the Han people are so rampant, it's time to teach them a lesson."
A group of Hu generals opened their mouths to laugh at the Zhao Tong brothers, but the Hou Luo Hou did not tell these people Kebineng's explanation, the reason why they were happy was purely because they were unhappy with the Zhao Tong brothers and wanted to see them make a fool of themselves.
Hou Luo Hou sneered: "Hmph, there are only seven days left, after seven days, I want to see how the two brothers end!" ”
While the Hu people were drinking and having fun, Zhao Tong also returned to the camp outside the city.
"You guys practice first!" When Zhao Tong returned to the camp, Zhao Guang was training soldiers, Zhao Guang gave an order to the soldiers who were training, and then walked towards Zhao Tong and asked, "Big brother, how is the situation?" ”
Zhao Tong was covered in dust, with a tired face, listening to Zhao Guang's words, he took out a map from his arms with a smile on his face, and said: "This is the map I drew in the past few days, there is a Hu tribe seventy miles south of Shanwu, this camp is relatively far away from other camps, not far from the north of the camp, there is a rocky valley, suitable for Tibetan soldiers to ambush.
And not far from the rocky valley, there is a river, this river is the source of drinking water for this tribe, and their tribe will come out every day to get water. We only need to target the water source and lure them out. ”
Zhao Guang was overjoyed when he heard this: "In this case, what are you waiting for, let's quickly prepare to go!" ”
Zhao Tong smiled: "Don't worry, I have found a camp suitable for attacking, but I don't know how well you have trained your soldiers?" ”
