Chapter 197: Killing Stabilizes the Army's Heart
Yang Feng took less than seven hundred brothers, took advantage of the mountainous terrain, and protected the grain and grass to the death, after a fierce battle, both sides were exhausted, so they each stopped fighting and planned the next showdown.
When it was almost dark, Yang Fengxian, who was enduring thirst, part of Bai Bo's army drove up the ridge to the south and began to build simple fortifications on the ridge, and the Bai Bo army surrounding him under the mountain also began to become restless, everything shows that reinforcements from the south have arrived.
Such judgment and news made the morale of Yang Feng's troops who were trapped on the hill soar for a while, and even those trembling coachmen began to look south, hoping to get news of reinforcements, so that they could get out of danger as soon as possible and reunite with their families.
However, everyone waited left and right, on the peak, there were only groups of Baibo people and horses carrying stones back and forth, resting the fortifications, but there was no shout of fighting, and just when everyone was looking forward to it, before it was completely dark, the Baibo army on the ridge suddenly burst into cheers, and the Baibo army under the mountain also stabilized, such a situation immediately made the Yang Bo team on the hill feel a moment of confusion, it was a burst of frustration, and an uneasy mood began to spread slowly in the team.
"Lord Sima, did the people and horses who came to the rescue give up the rescue of us because they saw that the mountain was steep and easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they were afraid of losing their brothers?" A Yang Feng's personal guard whispered in Yang Feng's ear.
Yang Feng stared at the south, licked his chapped lips, and was also uneasy in his heart, it is said that with the situation just now, it is definitely the reinforcements that have arrived, but why didn't the reinforcements attack their own rescue? This did make him feel a little uneasy.
At this time, the guard put his mouth close to Yang Feng's ear again, Yang Feng had to tilt his head to hide, looking at his appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, and said impatiently: "What do you want to say?" If you have something to say, you can talk about it, and if you have a fart, let it go. ”
The guard looked carefully left and right, then lowered his voice and said to Yang Feng: "Lord Sima, do you think that our lord can really send someone to rescue us?" ”
Yang Feng frowned: "What do you mean?" ”
Seeing that Yang Feng didn't interrupt him, this guard let go of his courage and whispered: "The rescue army is coming, but it stopped on the other side of the mountain and did not attack the enemy to rescue us, is this our lord afraid of hurting his vitality?" ”
Yang Feng frowned: "The cliff in front, the mountain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, reinforcements come from afar, if you attack rashly, you will have huge losses, if you are a general, you will carefully observe the enemy's situation and adjust the deployment of the attack, which is also the military situation, human nature." ”
The guard shook his head slightly: "But I don't see it that way." ”
"What do you bunny boy think?"
"As the saying goes, saving soldiers is like fighting fire, since we know that we are besieged on this hill, there is no water on the mountain, and there is a shortage of manpower, we should step up the attack, and how can we adjust the plan slowly and logically, I think there is a cat here."
Yang Feng's face darkened, and finally asked lightly, "Then what do you think?" ”
The guard let go of his voice and said again: "According to the opinion of the subordinates, we joined later, and we are not the original cronies of Lu Peng at all, we are not treated by him at all, he is just putting on a show, let his subordinates rescue him, and now they need to attack the mountain, so they are reluctant to let their own men and horses, so the subordinates think-
Turning back to this guard, he scolded angrily: "Shut your dog's mouth, if you dare to disrupt the army's heart again, do you believe it or not, I will cut you down now?" ”
was scolded by Yang Feng like this, this cronie not only did not shut up, but raised his voice again: "Did I say something wrong?" As soon as Xu Jie returned to the county seat, he handed over the drudgery of escorting grain and grass to us, but their own soldiers enjoyed happiness in the county seat, isn't this the difference between far and near? ”
At this time, Yang Feng's subordinates also slowly gathered over, holding the weapons in their hands, and quietly listened to the argument of this personal guard.
Yang Feng stood up, held the waist knife in his hand, and stared coldly at the guard: "Is this your idea alone, or everyone's thoughts?" ”
The guard looked left and right, and saw that the brothers around him did not refute, so he was more confident at that time, and said stubbornly to Yang Feng: "Although I didn't ask for everyone's opinions, I think what we think makes sense." ”
Yang Feng asked coldly, "Then how are you going?" ”
Seeing that Yang Feng had no fire, this guard became even more courageous: "In this troubled world, we don't need to be dogs for others, we have soldiers and food in our own hands, why don't we start a stove independently, everyone fights for themselves and makes a happy life, why do you want to work for others?" ”
Looking at this guard, Yang Feng asked lightly again, "Then what do you think we should do now?" ”
This guard seemed to be encouraged by Yang Feng's attitude, and immediately danced with his hands, and excitedly suggested to Yang Feng: "Now we have grain in our hands, but Bai Bo at the foot of the mountain has no grain in his hands, but there are people and horses." Lord Sima and Bai Bo are still old acquaintances, if we take out grain and grass at this time, join forces with Bai Bo, and then turn over and attack the county seat. Anyway, this county town has been attacked by us several times, and we know everything about where it is weak and where it is strong, and it is easy to take the county seat. When the time comes, we have coerced those people in the city and robbed those rich gentry and merchants, you are the boss, and Bai Bo is your deputy, won't you be happy? ”
The guard was spitting as he spoke, and suddenly saw a white light shining in front of him, and then saw his headless body slowly fall to the ground.
Carrying a blood-dripping war knife and stepping on his original most loyal guard, Yang Fengxue's red eyes flashed in the dark night: "I follow Lord Duwei, not for me to ascend to heaven and be happy, but for the ideal goal of my belief in Lord Duwei, for the people of the world, to fight for a way to live, now we are in a critical moment, if anyone dares to talk nonsense to disturb the hearts of our army, this person will be your end." Then he stood there majestically, and his resolute gaze swept over all the soldiers, some of whom raised their heads in his righteous and firm gaze, and some of whom bowed their heads in shame.
Yang Feng puffed up his chest and raised his war knife high: "I, Yang Feng, will announce to you now, I would rather die in battle than harm the people, you and I are brothers who have shared hardships, and I will not force you, if there is anyone who is willing to go down the mountain and surrender to Bai Bo, I will let you go down the mountain now, and then we will meet on the battlefield." ”
Quiet, death-like silence, in this death-like silence, all the people are struggling to think in their hearts, and in thinking, they slowly become firm, no one walks away, and all of them look at Yang Feng firmly.
Yang Feng looked at Nanshan in the dark with confidence.
In this unbearable silence, the shouts of killing suddenly sounded on the South Mountain.
Yang Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and all the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.
We are not abandoned.
