Chapter 59: Contact
Seeing that this pretty maid wanted to stop talking, Xia Nan walked over with a smile and touched her and Xia He's heads. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Silly girl, are you worried that my lord will get injured in the war? Don't worry, I'll come back alive, I'm still waiting for you to beat my back and legs, don't be lazy when the time comes! ”
Hearing these words, Chunlan couldn't suppress the waves in her heart, and called out "Master...... again" and tears flowed silently.
Although Xia He is simple and ignorant, but the days of following the master are very happy, this is still understood, looking at Sister Chunlan crying, she was also infected, her eyes were red, and said: "Master, you have to cherish your body, when you come back, Sister Chunlan and I will beat your back and legs, I will not be lazy." ”
Xia Nan was a little panicked, he was most afraid of women crying, he reached out to wipe Chunlan's tears, and was about to say a few words of comfort, when he heard Xia He's words, he couldn't help but be happy, "What do you mean by cherishing your body, master, I'm going to fight, it's not that ......"
Chunlan was also amused by Xia He's words, and burst into laughter, "Silly girl, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!" ”
Generally speaking, men are only advised to exercise moderation in sexual intercourse, and it sounds really strange to say it on this occasion.
Maria watched from the side as they were in deep affection, did not interfere, just kept smiling, and there was a huge difference between Eastern and Western women in this regard. If a European man has a lover, it is normal in the eyes of his wife, which is the embodiment of charm, not to mention that in the face of the personal maid who gets along day and night, it is also human nature to express emotions.
After the love between the children and daughters grew, Xia Nan collected his mood and made a mobilization speech to the escort team: "You have been training for a long time and have experienced fierce battles. You have defeated the famous brave and fierce Foot Chopping Native Army, and now they are attacking Chengmai County, if they succeed, they will definitely increase their strength, and sooner or later they will turn around and attack us. We are getting better and better day by day, and in the future, when all the other factories are built, our life will be better, if those barbarians come to destroy our factories, take our belongings, and rob our women, will you agree? ”
Without thinking, the three hundred people shouted in unison: "No promise!" ”
"So what should we do?" 、
"Defeat them!"
Xia Nan raised her voice: "Be louder, I didn't hear it!" ”
Three hundred roared from the depths of their chests: "Defeat them!"
Summer Nan waved his hand, "Let's go!" ”
Three hundred men set out in a neat column, and it was a two-day journey to Chengmai County, which was also a good marching training.
In order to hide their strength, the guards hid their rifles when Master Qian was lecturing, and now they are marching with guns on their backs. Sixty rifles were already in the army, which would be a weapon against the decapitators, and the rest were still armed with spears to protect rifles without bayonets.
On the way to the march, they encountered several checkpoints for inspection, and a few soldiers wearing "inspection" uniforms occasionally wanted to come up for interrogation, but when they saw a neat queue of 300 people, they were afraid to interrogate. These local patrol soldiers can only exploit the common people and hawkers, and encounter a large number of people, whether it is bandits or officers and soldiers, they cannot afford to provoke.
Compared with the inland, the counties and prefectures of Qiongzhou are not densely populated, and the escort team travels between Lingao County and Chengmai County, except for the inspection checkpoints and sporadic merchants and hawkers, they rarely meet other people along the way, until they are close to Chengmai County, there are more people, and most of them are farmers who fled in a hurry, both Han Chinese, and Li people who were incorporated into the capital - besieging the county seat, and temporarily did not have the energy to take care of the people outside the county, but for fear of being affected by the war, these farmers still chose to flee, to relatives and friends or simply flee. Encountering this team of 300 people, the fleeing peasant households avoided it, thinking that it was reinforcements from the Foot Mountain, and Xia Nan finally stopped a family and inquired about the battle situation ahead.
It has been more than half a month since the besieged county seat, and there are only a few hundred temporarily organized township warriors in the county, relying on the assistance of twelve archers from the county inspection department, temporarily holding the city wall, and it is said that the county order has asked for help from the prefecture, but it is unknown when it will arrive. In this era, the mobilization of the army was a very complicated matter, and it was not uncommon for a large-scale army to spend a year and a half from receiving an order to rushing to the battlefield.
It's a pity that I don't know how the loss of the chopping foot is going, Xia Nan thought regretfully. However, since he chose to come here, no matter whether the lineup of Chopping Foot Mountain is complete or not, he can only fight hard, and he can win with a spear, and there is no reason not to win with a firearm.
In the summer, Nan ordered to maintain the battle formation and advance, with sixty men armed with Qionghai-style rifles in front, and the rest with spears on both flanks, and once the enemy was found, the rifles were to strike at a distance first, and then defend with spearmen.
Cautiously advanced for two miles, several Li people armed with hook knives suddenly appeared in front, and the escort team immediately stopped advancing and launched a battle formation.
Several Li people saw the strict formation of the escort team, and they were very familiar, didn't this defeat their Han people in Tinan Mountain? A few people turned around and ran, and the original 600 people fought 300 people and failed miserably, and a few of them did not have the consciousness of eggs touching stones, and 36 plans were the best plan.
"Stand in place and stay on combat alert, these people are estimated to be the sentinels of the opposing patrol, and the large force will come soon." Summer South issued an order. When he appears in the rear of the Chopping Mountain, the opponent can only choose to turn his head and attack, and it is self-defeating to continue the siege when there is a threat from the rear.
In less than a cup of tea, there was a commotion on the opposite side, and hundreds of vigorous native soldiers swarmed in, stopping at a distance of about two hundred meters from the convoy, followed by some cowering Li people, apparently people from other stockades who had been coerced.
In the middle, a strong man with a tall earth soldier is particularly conspicuous, it is Huang Mengjia. He had apparently given up the siege and had gone all out to attack the convoy, which in his eyes was much more threatening than the weak county town of Chengmai.
Huang Mengjia looked at the other party's still neat queue, his teeth itched with hatred, he didn't think that the other party was here to drink tea and catch up, a battle could not be avoided.
Since the defeat of the first battle of Tinan Mountain, he chose to avoid the other party and instead attacked Chengmai County, originally thought that he would not meet the other party, but he never expected that the other party would take the initiative to come over and start a war. Lao Tzu hit Chengmai, do your, and actually came to rescue an irrelevant county, you are not an official government, what are you trying to do?
He turned his head and asked a Han man dressed as a scribe next to him, "Mr. Yan, the Han people who once defeated us are on the other side, what do you think?" ”
