After working for a long time, the recruits of the forward battalion finally put out a nondescript defensive circle, I don't know if it was intentional or coincidental, Yuan Fang was right at the front of the queue, that is, facing the direction of the 'enemy'. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Yuan Fang looked at the stick in his hand, and felt that it was a bit too child's play, the weapon was not in place, at least get some decent replacement, so many people were holding sticks, and there was no murderous spirit at all, no matter how you looked at it, it didn't look like a marching battle, it was more like a hooligan group fight.

With the advantage of geographical conditions, Yuan Fang, who was in the vanguard, had a good line of sight, and the people who came were a team of cavalry, female cavalry, they wore helmets and armor, and their banners were clear.

The horse team got closer and closer, and stopped less than a stone's throw away from the vanguard, Yuan Fang, and the smoke and dust drifted forward with the strong wind, as if the clouds were coming from the fog.

Lei Hua, whose face was a little ugly, did not move, he waited in place with great experience, and only when the smoke and dust cleared did he lead a team of personal soldiers to urge the horse to slow down and come to the female soldiers.

Looking at the other party condescendingly, Lei Hua said in a rough voice: "What about you General Xia Liang?" Why didn't you come? ”

The female soldier at the head urged her to step forward and saluted: "Gu Yanqiu, the forward captain of the Nanping County Women's Barracks, has seen General Lei, and our General Xia is handling military affairs and can't come to greet him, so I ask General Lei for forgiveness." ”

Gu Qiuyan's voice was crisp, neither humble nor arrogant, Yuan Fang and the others in the distance could hear it clearly, Yuan Fang couldn't help but mutter, "It seems that the relationship between these female soldiers and our General Lei is not very harmonious." ”

Yang Xing was puzzled and asked, "How do you know?" ”

Yuan Fangnunu said: "Look, that Gu Qiuyan is a school captain, and when he saw our General Lei, he didn't even get off the horse, and his tone was not warm at all, and he was cold." Yang Xing stretched his neck to look hard, but the distance was still a little far, and he could only see the general outline clearly, and he couldn't see the appearance of the other party clearly.

Lei Hua said in a deep voice with a straight face: "General Chen ordered your women's battalion and our forward battalion to serve as the vanguard, open the way for the Chinese army, and supervise the supply of military food along the way. ”

Gu Qiuyan glanced at the messy forward battalion and said, "What my family General Xia means is that we will be the forward, and General Lei's forward battalion will follow as an auxiliary, so as to gain more time for training." ”

Lei Hua could see clearly, Gu Qiuyan's eyes were full of disdain and contempt when he looked at the forward battalion, and he was about to speak, Gu Qiuyan continued: "By the way, General Lei, your servant was asked by our General Xia to interrogate just now, and you should be able to come back later, please don't worry." ”

Although Lei Hua had been prepared for a long time, he still couldn't bear it when he heard Gu Qiuyan say this fact in person, especially Gu Qiuyan didn't have any cover-up, or to save Lei Hua a little face, and to say this in front of so many people, obviously wanting to give Lei Hua a dismount, or to prove that their strength is stronger.

The corners of Lei Hua's mouth twitched, and he snorted coldly: "Hmph, a group of useless things can't even be done by a group of women." ”

Gu Qiuyan's face became a little unkind, but she didn't have a verbal dispute with Lei Hua, and said in a cold tone: "We have already camped fifteen miles ahead, and there are enough material equipment to replenish for you, if General Lei has nothing else to do, I will go back to resume my life." ”

What does it mean that the most elite servants were captured collectively? It shows that these women are not only not easy to mess with, but they are obviously doing this to show their combat effectiveness that cannot be ignored, and give themselves a dismount, if it was before, his subordinates were veterans who had been trained for a long time, Lei Hua could still argue with the other party, but now, he had nothing to say, and the order that Chen Xin gave him before was also to let Lei Hua's forward battalion obey Xia Liang's dispatch, and I believe that Xia Liang had also received the order.

Lei Hua waved his hand angrily, signaling that Gu Qiuyan could leave, turned his horse's head and glared at the recruits under him, and yelled: "I can't even do the simplest defensive formation, what if I really encounter the enemy?" Double your training today, don't eat if you don't get it right. Hearing this, everyone complained bitterly, and this day, not only had to hurry, but also all kinds of training, and the recruits were already physically exhausted and miserable, and immediately complained.

Lei Hua glared: "What's the noise?" You said it yourself, how long has it been since you couldn't even do such a trivial thing and still have the face to be a soldier? It's not as good as even a group of women, aren't you guys? After speaking, he urged the horse to the side and personally directed the drill.

Not long after, more than a dozen waiters came back with frowning eyes, first scolded by Lei Hua, and then called aside to ask: "Chang Laosan, tell me what is going on, with your ability, the whole army will not be wiped out." ”

Chang Laosan sighed and said with annoyance: "General, we underestimated the enemy, at the beginning, we were on a par with them, but then I don't know how, their people don't know where to run, we thought they were scared away, so we took advantage of the victory to pursue, and also captured two lone prisoners, but who knew that those little girls were so cunning, it was actually a trap, we were surrounded." ”

Lei Hua said indignantly: "Encirclement? Then you won't break through? ”

Chang Laosan said with a bitter face: "General, they all have crossbow arrows in their hands. ”

Lei Hua stiffened his neck and said, "What's wrong with the crossbow arrows, do they really dare to shoot you?" Lei Hua was messing around, and Chang Laosan was speechless.

Lei Hua sighed and said angrily: "I have long heard that those female soldiers are well equipped, but I didn't expect the gap to be so big, and they are all equipped with crossbows." ”

Chang Laosan echoed and said: "Yes, general, don't you see, their military uniforms are all brand new, their weapons are all of the highest quality, there are still many horse pens in their camp, not to mention hundreds of war horses, I think they are about to become cavalry." I don't know what to think above, if all those good things are given to us, our combat effectiveness will definitely be improved by several grades. ”

Lei Hua glanced at Chang Laosan: "Your equipment is not bad, it's not that you haven't done anyone else?" Look at you one by one, usually blowing in the sky and on the ground, Lao Tzu is the first in the world, why did you drop the chain when it came to the real thing? ”

Chang Laosan said aggrievedly: "General, they are all women, we really can't bear to be ruthless." ”

Lei Hua was furious: "Fart, what's wrong with the woman, let me tell you Chang Laosan, I was despised by those girls just now, if you are still like this next time, don't blame me for ignoring brotherhood, you all give me a board one by one." ”

Chang Laosan was stunned: "No, general, they dare to despise us?" Damn, these little ladies really think we're bullying, no, general, let's go out and fight again, I promise not to leave hands this time. ”

Lei Hua rolled his eyes and said, "It's still a fart, don't give me anything to do, give me what to do." ”

In the following period of time, the recruits were unlucky, and they walked for most of the day in just a dozen miles, and along the way, they continued to practice various formations, defensive circle formations, offensive phalanxes, etc., changing back and forth, making everyone dizzy.

After a day of high-intensity training, the progress of the recruits is also very obvious, at least, the transformation of the defensive formation during the march is quite good, although it is only a showmanship, it is much stronger than before.

That night, the forward battalion was stationed not far from the women's camp, and the female soldiers could be seen from a distance, and the recruits and veterans on duty stood straight one by one, and their eyes glanced at the women's camp from time to time.

Dinner was rice cereal boiled with bud rice noodles, and everyone went back to their respective tents and fell asleep, but they were really tired on this day.

In the middle of the night, everyone was sleeping soundly, suddenly the alarm bell sounded, there was a riot in the camp, and the shouting and killing in the distance continued, Yuan Fang sat up violently and woke up Yang Xing: "There seems to be an accident outside, get up quickly." ”

Yang Xing reluctantly got up, rubbed his eyes and said, "What can happen in the middle of the night?" After saying that, I also heard a mess outside.

Qiao Dazhuang lifted the tent curtain and said anxiously: "Enemy attack, enemy attack, come out and assemble quickly." Yuan Fang and Yang Xing were startled, and hurriedly got up and ran out of the tent.

At this time, the camp was in chaos, and there were panicked recruits running around like headless flies, Yuan Fang pulled Yang Xing to find Qiao Dazhuang, and asked loudly in shock: "Captain, what's the matter?" Qiao Dazhuang was also inexplicable, he reacted the fastest, and was the first to come out when he heard the alarm bell, only to hear the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the fire outside the camp was soaring, but after such a long time, there was no trace of the enemy.

Yuan Fang looked around, and suddenly knew in his heart, this should be those officers who made it out to toss people, and just as he was about to open his mouth to let everyone calm down, he saw at least a hundred cavalry rushing into the camp, and those who stood in the way were knocked away, and the weapons in their hands greeted the recruits mercilessly, and suddenly there was a wail, and the screams continued.

Yuan Fang was taken aback: "Damn, it's really an enemy attack, captain, what should we do?" ”

Qiao Dazhuang was already frightened, looking at the enemy who was getting closer and closer, he was at a loss, Yuan Fang pushed him hard: "Captain, you are talking, what should we do?" ”

Qiao Dazhuang came back to his senses, his legs trembled, and he stammered, "What, what should I do?" ”

Qiao Dazhuang was too nervous and had lost his ability to think, although Yuan Fang was not much stronger, but he was a little better than Qiao Dazhuang, looking at the people around him who were also at a loss and full of fear, he said to Yang Xing: "Wait a minute, you follow me." Yang Xing nodded tremblingly.

Yuan Fang then said to Qiao Dazhuang: "Captain, the other party is a cavalryman, hurry up and find cover, and then join the others." ”

Qiao Dazhuang nodded vigorously: "Yes, find a cover, who is that, Cao Ping, where is Cao Ping?" ”

Cao Ping was the youngest, and he was also frightened at this time, and when he heard Qiao Dazhuang calling himself, he hurriedly agreed: "Captain, I'm here." ”

Qiao Dazhuang suppressed the fear in his heart as much as possible and said, "Captain Tian, where are they?" ”

Cao Ping looked around, pointed in one direction and said, "They are stationed over there." ”

Qiao Dazhuang waved his hand: "Let's go, go find Captain Tian." ”
