Chapter 1118 - Guarding against Thieves Every Day

Another night fell, the sky was full of stars, the sky was clear, and the future was another sunny day, and in the corner of the camp, an ordinary soldier huddled outside the tent with a spear. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoNow that Kipros is in the middle of summer, even at night, you can't feel the cold in a thin armor. His name is Hu Weixian, from Bianliang City, Qiyi Street, Hu Weixian is not an ordinary background, although the Hu family in Bianliang is not as noble as those wealthy families, but it is also a big family. Father Hu Yingyuan more than ten years ago has entered the dynasty as the imperial history, since the change of Jingkang many years ago, after the King of Qin entered Bianliang to seize power, Hu Yingyuan was also reused, promoted to the right servant of the household, and became a number of important ministers in the dynasty. It is said that Hu Weixian's background does not need him to join the army at all, not to mention that the Hu family is such an only son as him. However, Hu Weixian has been different from ordinary people since he was a child, he doesn't want to rely on his family, he wants to rely on his own ability to break out of the world.

If you really want to talk about it, Hu Weixian and Zhao Yougong also have some relationship. Maybe today, Zhao Yougong has long forgotten those trivial things, but Hu Weixian remembers it clearly. When he was less than eight years old, His Royal Highness served as the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, and led a group of people from Kaifeng Mansion to tear down the wall of the Hu family, and since then he has won the name of the King of Kaifeng Demolition Wall. Before he was eight years old, Hu Weixian dared to stand up, and he still clearly remembered the appearance of His Royal Highness rolling up his sleeves to fight the eight-year-old baby. At that time, I always thought that Zhao Yougong, the king of Yongning County, was a joke, but ten years later, he became a soldier of His Royal Highness. It's really impermanent, I couldn't understand it when I was a child, but when I grew up, I realized how complicated it was, and it was definitely a god-like miracle that His Highness could survive in the crisis-ridden Bianliang City and quietly rise to Guanzhong. Hu Weixian admires Zhao Yougong, he wants to be a hero like His Royal Highness, and rely on his own ability to kill a piece of the world. Tomorrow, it will be the real decisive battle, with a hint of anxiety in the excitement, Hu Weixian's mind always flashes the appearance of his mother, he must win, he must not die, if he dies here, can his mother still live? At this moment, Hu Weixian actually had a trace of remorse, if he could go home in this battle, he would no longer be willful. No matter how much you aspire to make contributions, you can't forget your family after all. After two years of military life, following the regent from the Central Plains to Siberia, I not only learned how to fight, but also learned what responsibility is.

His Highness is not like others, he rarely talks about those big truths, but many words are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He Hu Weixian is not alone, there is the Hu family behind him, as an only son, he is willful and reckless, putting himself on a dangerous battlefield, which is extremely irresponsible to the entire Hu family. I still remember what His Royal Highness said a year ago, he said that every battle, every struggle, is not so noble, in order to make the family live a better life and live a more stable life. When he reached the position of regent, the entire Great Song Dynasty had become his home, and he Hu Weixian, the Hu family was his home. What merit, what glory, without a home, everything is meaningless. There was a slight sound of footsteps in his ears, Hu Weixian raised his head slightly, and after seeing the person clearly, he stood up abruptly and hurriedly saluted, "See Your Highness." ”

"Xiaoxian?" Zhao Yougong has a good memory, and he recognized Hu Weixian at a glance, and he was deeply impressed by Hu Weixian. When he first served as the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, he regulated the entire Qianyi Street, and no one in Bianliang City dared to blow up Mao, but Hu Weixian, who was less than eight years old, dared to run out and fight, "Hehe, what, are you worried about tomorrow's war?" ”

Hu Weixian's heart was hot, he didn't expect His Royal Highness to recognize him, so he couldn't help but straighten his chest, "Don't worry, my subordinates think that the Slavs are already at the end of the crossbow, no matter what, our army will win." ”

Hu Weixian already looks martial, but at this time, he straightens his chest and straightens his face, but he really has an indescribable domineering. Zhao Yougong looked up and down, and smiled with burning eyes, "You kid is amazing, tsk, really not worried at all?" ”

Being stared at by Zhao Yougong's substantive eyes, Hu Weixian had a feeling that he had been seen through, and in a blink of an eye, he was deflated, and scratched his head in embarrassment with his chest, "If you want to say that you don't worry about it, it's fake, your subordinates are really a little scared, after all, the Slavs have gathered all the forces that can be fought." The subordinates are afraid of accidents, I am a child at home, and my mother is personally spoiled, if something happens, my mother is afraid that she will not be able to live. ”

Zhao Yougong did not show any dissatisfaction, but nodded with some relief, compared to the young man who had a flamboyant personality and empty eyes two years ago, he preferred the current Hu Weixian. Maybe he didn't have the sharpness of the day, but he was more mature, at least he understood what responsibility was and what obligation was, patted Hu Weixian's shoulder, leaned outside the military tent, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the dome was vast, and I didn't know what was flying in the distant sky, "Xiaoxian, you have finally grown up." Only fear will understand how to live, every battle should be fearful, the battlefield is ever-changing, no one can say what will happen in the next moment. You just have to remember that when we get to the battlefield, our only purpose is to live, to live bravely, because there are many people behind us. As a general, you must be more fearful and cautious, because in front of you, you are the brothers under your command, and if you have no fear, you are likely to innocently bury the lives of these people. ”

Leaning outside the military tent, the two chatted a lot, until Sanniang came over, and then they dispersed. This night is destined to be a sleepless night, the Chinese army's tent is full of depression from the coming of the war, and many soldiers are thinking about their future and remembering the past. On the other side, the camp of the Slavs was also filled with panic and unease, and even Vyache could not be pampered and not frightened, let alone ordinary Slavs. The only thing Viache was glad that he had won the battle of Kachig at all costs, which boosted his morale, otherwise the so-called decisive battle would have been a joke. Desertion incidents were not uncommon before, and the army could be described as panicking, and if the morale of the corporaries was not boosted, a big war could not be fought at all. In the direction of Nosra in the east, there was the Vleikimir Front led by Vasilev, and in order to deal with the decisive battle of the Suzdal River, Vasilev could be regarded as exhausted, not only Flekimir's soldiers and horses, but also many private soldiers of the southern nobles were gathered, and the army of 20,000 was gathered to the fullest. These are Kipros' last family foundations, they can only win, not lose, but for the future decisive battle, Vasilev does not have much hope, and the legal officer Bao Cenglie is also not sleepy, "Your Excellency Commander, please calm down, no matter what, the Suzdal River is our territory, and the Easterners have come from afar, and they can't compete with us." ”

"Bao Cenglie, I think it's better to be careful, the Orientals are not so easy to deal with, since they dare to fight a decisive battle here, they must have something to rely on. I have seen with my own eyes the strength of the Orientals, they are extremely brave, and their combat effectiveness is definitely not under us" Vasilev stroked his beard with some concern, at the beginning of the Siberian War, but he had seen the strength of the Oriental army with his own eyes, so far, Kipros has not been able to train an army like an arm.

On the first day of the seventh month of the fifth year of Taikang, the vast Kiev plain resounded with rumbling drums, the scorching sun shrouded the earth, the grass was full of color, the green was full, and a black tide released infinite killing intent. Before the time came, tension arose in the middle of the Kiev Plain. One by one, the army spread out and covered the entire battlefield, and from the front, it was impossible to see the whole situation, but if there was a high point, as long as you looked at it from a distance, you could see a shocking scene. The Dingguo army, with nearly 30,000 people, spread out, with two circular formations running in different directions in the middle, and eight rectangular formations projecting in all directions around the middle. Heaven and earth, wind and thunder, water and volcanoes, tens of thousands of people formed a huge Taiji gossip. Of course, the Slavs did not see this, and even if they did, they could not understand it, and in their minds, they had no impression of gossip.

The Slavs also did not hesitate, the two armies were overwhelmingly pressed from the east and west sides, the Taiji Bagua Array was too big, the Bafang Array was blocked, the Slavs couldn't see the whole picture at all, and from the periphery, the east and west sides seemed to be facing three rectangular formations. It's just that the position is very weird, Vasilev frowned, he couldn't understand it after watching it for a long time, the battle was mainly concentrated on the east and west sides, how could the rectangular formation formed by the Easterners face the northeast? Similarly, Viache also felt a trace of weirdness, it was not that he had never seen a rectangular array, even if the Shuanglong Water Formation was also understood, but the rectangular array in front of him was full of weirdness. But Viache didn't wait too long, no matter what, he always had to fight, to this point, he couldn't fight without fighting, the Oriental people could drag it, but he couldn't drag it at all, and the tens of thousands of Oriental troops near Flekimir were not vegetarians. The horn sounded, and it was naturally the avant-garde army under its command who served as the first wave of attacks, and this cannon fodder army had the unshirkable responsibility to undertake the task of testing. Viache didn't think about the effect of the first wave of attacks, he just wanted to find out the mystery of the opponent's formation through the avant-garde.

A total of 10,000 soldiers of the avant-garde, armed with various weapons, rushed towards the rectangular formation with trepidation. The avant-garde was treated very poorly, not only lacked weapons, but even had very few shields for a single man, most of them had experienced the battle of Kachig, and were deeply impressed by the rain of arrows from the Easterners, so they rushed up cautiously, and the formation was also very scattered, for fear that a rain of arrows would come down and they would be killed. This time, though, the rain of arrows didn't come down. Zhao Yougong lived in the middle of the long snake formation, so he naturally couldn't see the situation outside, but the scouts kept sending the news, "Your Highness, the Slavs have sent a cannon fodder army, and now they are approaching the two rectangular formations of wind and thunder. ”

Chapter 1007 Gangfeng

"Order all departments, accumulate arrows, and don't waste them until necessary" Zhao Yougong is not a fool, the Slavs sent the cannon fodder army out, obviously they were tempting, and at the same time wanted the cannon fodder army to consume their own arrows. The battle of Kachig was defeated so badly, and it was this loss that was suffered. The military order was issued, and on the periphery, the avant-garde cannon fodder army had also made contact with the Bagua Array, and they aimed their attacks at the wind and thunder arrays on the periphery. The eight-sided rectangular array, all protected by heavy shields, the ragged equipment of the avant-garde army wanted to break through the peripheral shield array, which was wishful thinking, but to the surprise of the cannon fodder army, the rectangular array did not take the initiative to attack, but slowly moved clockwise like a spinning top, many Slavs pounced, the shield exposed the gap, and the spear stabbed continuously, and it broke the opponent's offensive. Some Slavs have a unique vision, the octagonal rectangular array is very open, so there is a wide open space between every two rectangular arrays, the innermost part is four or five zhang apart, and the outermost is up to dozens of zhang and hundreds of zhang, such a wide aisle, it is simply unfortified, a cannon fodder army commander roared angrily, leading people to rush along the open space, they are not really stupid, according to common sense, the more middle ground, the more important. The rectangular array did not take the initiative to move forward, everyone saw that they could not break the shield protection, but caused themselves heavy casualties, and no one took the initiative to attack the rectangular array, everyone whined, rushed along the open space to the inside, Ula Ula's shouts kept surging, they were extremely excited, as if they saw victory. Tens of thousands of cannon fodder troops, there were too many of them, they did not concentrate in the same open space, but rushed in along the three aisles, and at this time, the peripheral eight-sided rectangular array still ignored it, but just moved slowly clockwise according to the predetermined steps, as long as those Slavs did not take the initiative to attack, they would not rush out.

The cannon fodder army was overjoyed, they had already rushed for a distance, but they were not hindered at all, and if they rushed forward a hundred feet, they would be able to rush into the middle, but at this time, the mutation was prominent. I saw the blue flag waving in the middle of the long snake formation, and four drums sounded, accompanied by blue arrows. The rectangular array that was originally moving slowly clockwise suddenly increased its speed, and they were all facing their right side, and their heavy and steady steps slowly stepped away, and with a loud shout, the shield showed a gap, and countless spears pierced out, like iron thorns inlaid on a huge steel plate, "Huh.... Ooh... Huh", the invisible coercion was overwhelming, and finally, many Slavs were directly crushed by a rectangular array like hedgehogs. At this time, the Slavs who rushed in finally felt the danger, and the more they rushed in, the smaller the space, and at this time, the rectangular array increased its rotation speed, and in an instant, they were strangled together. Spears were lined up, shields were protected, and pops rang out incessantly, and the Slavs lay on the ground wailing, and in an instant they were drowned out by the rectangular array that followed.

The ferocity of the Slavs was stimulated, and they tried everything to break through the shield protection, even to the innermost part, but with little effect. As the commander of the cannon fodder army, Varechel always has some eyesight, and after paying a heavy price, he found that the rectangular formation was only running in one direction, all the attacks came from the left direction, and the rectangular formation in the right direction did not pay attention to it at all, after discovering this, Varechel shouted loudly, "Attack the rectangular formation on the right, hurry up, rush into the formation of the Orientals." ”
