Chapter 139: If the two heroes do not stand side by side, they will fight to the death (3)
"Password: Capture Xiao Lang alive, revenge!"
"Answer: Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, drink the Yellow River!"
………………
In the middle of the night, in the camp of the Jiangdong Army, the lights are bright, the walls are strict, the password questions and answers are endless, and there are a large number of open posts, secret posts, and patrol posts distributed around the camp to prevent the enemy from coming to sneak attack!
Xiao Yi used troops strangely, especially good at stealing camps and robbing villages, so the Jiangdong army was extra cautious and arranged three times the defensive force, and Zhou Yu even issued a strict order: 'There are those who neglect their duties and do not patrol on time - beheaded!'" ’
The Han system of five people, set up a military commander, Li Shen is a military commander, with his four brothers, patrolling in the wilderness on the west side of the camp, once they encounter an unexpected situation, they will blow the horn to warn!
Li Shen was originally a farmer, living by cultivating a few acres of thin fields, although the life was hard, but also carefree, and later hundreds of thousands of Cao troops went south, the Jiangdong group was eager to expand its strength, so he enlisted in the army as a card knife player!
After a bloody battle for more than half a year, there were four veterans in the original team: two killed in battle, one crippled, and one escaped, but Li Shen became a veteran, and was also promoted to a junior captain, leading four newer recruits, the oldest over forty, and the youngest under fourteen!
This is not surprising, Sanjiangkou, Wulinji, Xiangyang City...... After a series of bloody battles, Jiangdong soldiers lost 60,000 or 70,000 casualties, and there were many wounded, and those veterans who had experienced a hundred battles were all lost, so they could only continue to recruit new soldiers and fill in the flesh and blood mill of war!
There are only six counties of land in Jiangdong, and the total population does not exceed one million, how can it withstand such consumption, a large number of young and middle-aged people died on the battlefield, and the old and weak can only be conscripted into the army, and the people are complaining, and the combat effectiveness of the army has also plummeted!
The failure of the previous two sneak attacks on Xiangyang is certainly related to strategy and luck, but the decline in the combat effectiveness of the Jiangdong Army is also one of the important reasons.
"In about ten days, the rice fields will turn golden yellow, and this year will be considered a good season, and the harvest will definitely be indispensable!"
"What's the use of the wind and rain, there are only old and weak women and children left in the family, how can they hold on to the heavy farm work of the autumn harvest?"
"I really want to throw away the swords, guns and shields, go home and reunite with my relatives, farming is much more practical than fighting!"
………………
When the patrol reached the second watch, there was no accident at all, and the five people were a little tired, so they sat under a big locust tree, eating dry food and gossiping at home!
Jiangdong is also the hometown of Mizusawa, which is also rich in rice, but the rice balls eaten by several people are mixed with half of the rice bran, and each person is only given one, and there is no food at all!
This shows that after half a year of fighting, not only the supply of soldiers has been exhausted, but the grain and grass have also been exhausted, so the Jiangdong army is unstable, and the topic of running away, going home, and not wanting to fight has been openly talked about by the soldiers!
Li Shen is also thinking about his hometown, but instead of looking back at the east, but looking at the northwest, although he lives in Jiangdong, his ancestral home is the Guanzhong people's family, when Dong Zhuo caused chaos in the western capital - Chang'an, the people were deeply affected and fled to other places!
Li Shen fled with his parents and drifted all the way to Jiangdong, where he saw that the land was fertile and the days were relatively peaceful, so he settled down and lived by cultivating the fields, and it has been fourteen years!
The trees are thousands of feet tall, the leaves fall back to the roots, homesickness is one of the Chinese traditions, although the Jiangdong area is rich, but the Li family still misses the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan and often tells the story there!
Therefore, although Li Shen grew up in Jiangdong, he is familiar with the customs and customs of Guanzhong, knows Bashui Xianyang, knows the Lishan Mausoleum, and also knows the ruins of Afang Palace...... Even when I speak, I have a slight accent!
"Step! --Trample! Trample! ”
"There is a situation, everyone get ready!"
…………
While chatting, a gust of wind swept across the wilderness, blowing the surrounding grass and trees, and several people were chilled, and at the same time, there was a sound in the distance, as if a group of people were coming......
The five people hurriedly hid behind the tree, some clenched their knives and guns, and some drew their bows and arrows, wanting to see what was going on, whether they had encountered their own patrol, or if there was an enemy who was coming to sneak attack?
After a while, there were about twenty figures in a group from far to near, and Li Shen and the others opened their eyes wide, trying to tell whether they were friends or foes from each other's clothes, but they were surprised!
"Wind! -Wind! …… Gale! Gale! ”
It's not the Jiangdong Army, it's not the Cao Army, these people are dressed in simple clothes, wearing bronze armor and holding bronze Changge...... The queue was extremely neat, but the pace was extremely stiff, like a team of wooden people walking!
In addition, these people's faces were as white as paper, and they had no expression at all, but their bodies were covered with dust, wounds, and bloodstains, and some of them still had human heads hanging from their waists, and blood was constantly dripping, as if they had just walked down from the battlefield!
The people who came were too weird, and it was difficult to distinguish friend from foe, a few Jiangdong soldiers did not dare to act rashly, and continued to lurk to observe the situation.
Li Shen was sweating like rain, so frightened that he almost lost his pulse, and the strange scene in front of him reminded him of a terrible legend: 'Reverse the chaos of yin and yang, and the yin soldiers borrow the way!' ’
Legend has it that the souls of the soldiers who died on the battlefield will enter the Shura Dao, turn into ghost generals and ghost soldiers, and continue to fight in hell, while those who have made great contributions to the Jiangshan Society will be promoted to heavenly soldiers and generals, ranking among the immortal classes!
However, there are also some soldiers who are resentful after they are killed, thinking that they are not dead, and they want to maintain the honor of the soldiers and continue to fight with the enemy, and their souls will stay on the battlefield and will not enter the cycle for thousands of years!
Whenever the universe converges and the yin and yang are in chaos, these ghost soldiers who do not enter the cycle of reincarnation will reappear in the world.
This team marching late at night, wearing bronze armor and holding bronze weapons, is by no means a thing of this era, but the standard equipment of the Qin army hundreds of years ago!
And the slogans of the Yin soldiers, with a thick Guanzhong accent and a bloody human head tied to their waists, also compound the rules of the Great Qin army - beheading and remembering merits, plus pale faces and stiff bodies......
Li Shen's ancestral home in Guanzhong had heard his parents tell this kind of ghost story, so he quickly thought that the team they encountered was not a living person at all, but a passing Yin soldier!
Looking at this gloomy team, and then looking at the terrifying expression of the little captain, the rest of the soldiers also understood, they encountered 'dirty things!' ’
Suddenly frightened, some people sweated like rain, and some people sat on the ground...... They all covered their mouths tightly, and they didn't dare to take a breath out of their atmosphere, for fear of alarming the Yin soldiers and taking away their souls!
"Wind! -Wind! …… Gale! Gale! ”
The Yin soldiers fluttered and walked with the wind, and happened to pass under the big locust tree, but they did not hurt a few people, but hurried away, as if there was an urgent military situation......
When they walked into a forest, a dozen ghost fires suddenly flashed, and then a gust of wind blew and disappeared without a trace!
"Hell - hell am I, they're definitely ghosts!"
"Silly boy, don't scream, if you call them back again, we will definitely die, this time we can escape from death, thanks to the blessing of our ancestors and ancestors!"
"The yin qi here is too heavy, let's go back quickly, and tell the Tun elder - the Yin soldiers borrowed the way, it's terrible!"
………………
After the Yin soldiers disappeared, Li Shen and the others screamed, and wanted to flee back to the camp immediately, but they were weak and couldn't take a step at all, and the two youngest were already scared and fainted!
After resting for a while, the few people came back to their senses, and reluctantly supported each other, stumbling back to the camp, as for the swords, guns, bows and arrows, and shields...... All are still in the wilderness!
After returning to the camp, Li Shen reported the matter of the Yin soldiers borrowing the road to the tun chief, and the tun chief was also surprised, thinking that the matter was not trivial, and reported it to the school captain......
"The theory of the Yin soldiers passing by is purely false, and then there are rumors and troublemakers, and those who confuse people's hearts - behead!"
The matter was reported layer by layer, and soon reached Zhou Yu's ears, and the governor of the capital was also surprised, the people of the Han Dynasty respected heaven and earth, worshiped their ancestors, and believed in the ghosts and gods the most, and no one dared to offend easily!
However, at the time of the battle of life and death, there was a strange thing that the Yin soldiers borrowed the way, which inevitably made people panic, which was not conducive to the war behind, so Zhou Yu used his iron and bloody wrists to suppress this matter!
But in the next few days, things got worse, and when the soldiers patrolled late at night, they kept seeing the Yin soldiers borrowing the way, all of which were bronze armor and bronze Changge...... Decoration of the Qin army hundreds of years ago!
And near the Jiangdong camp, in the dead of night, there is always the sound of Jin Ge Iron Horse, as if thousands of troops and horses are fighting, but when they send people to check, there is no trace, only a little ghost fire!
What's more, when a team of Yin soldiers borrowed the road, they left a bronze helmet, which was picked up by the patrolling Jiangdong soldiers, and hurriedly handed over the Chinese military account.
After the news spread, many people trembled with fright, knelt on the ground and prayed for the blessing of God and Buddha, as for the task of night patrol, it was to shirk if they could, and pretend to be sick if they couldn't!
Let the generals scold and whip, and the soldiers are not willing to patrol the night, they are really coerced, and they also go out for a small circle, a little wind, turn their heads and run back, so that the defense of the battalion plummets!
