The main task of Mei Hong's 30,000 former army was to ensure that Fort No. 2 was not captured, and the secondary task was to respond to Zhou Wen's department. And now that Zhou Wen's department is almost wiped out by the whole army, it is obvious that there is no longer a need to respond, so the first priority is naturally to quickly approach the area of Fort A No. 2.

Before coming, Mei Kai also saw the battle report from Fort No. 2 A, and the Qin army had stopped attacking the fort after dividing its troops to intercept Zhou Wensuo's troops, but used bed crossbows and stone-throwing carts to bombard the main body of the fort almost without pause.

The 20,000 Qin troops besieging Fort A No. 2 were separated, and the reduction of seventy percent of the Qin army after the first battle between the Qin army and Zhou Wensuo's department was obviously considered a waste, even if the Qin army did not lose much when attacking the fort, the 20,000 Qin troops would not exceed 13,000 no matter how they counted the troops. If there is no mistake, the main force of the Qin army will soon choose a direction to march into, and it will arrive in two days at the latest. And now there are less than 13,000 Qin troops left on this road of Fort A No. 2, and the periphery of Fort A No. 2 has been cleared, and the possibility of the main force of the Qin army driving to this road is the highest.

The main force of the Qin army will arrive within two days, and the 30,000 former troops brought by Mei Kai in these two days are the best time to approach the No. 2 Soldier Fort.

The next day, before dawn, the cooks in the camp had already begun to bury the pot and make rice, and the 5,000 stoves lit in the barracks lit up the barracks as if they were going to compete with the rising sun.

Ten soldiers have one stove for rice, and it stands to reason that 30,000 people lighting 3,000 stoves is enough, but that's not the case at all. When the soldiers were in battle, they could only eat eight points full, but the extra food needed to be processed into dry food, so there were two more stoves.

When Mei Kai, who had rested for less than two hours, opened her eyes and walked out of the military tent, she saw a patch of daylight south of the barracks, and at this time, the eastern horizon was also beginning to whiten. He asked the soldiers guarding the camp, "What time is it?" ”

The soldier seemed to recall for a moment before replying: "Four quarters is the hour." ”

Almost as soon as the words fell, the horn in the barracks was blown, and the sound of the horn "Woo woo woo" echoed in the camp.

Hear the trumpet. Zhou Wen's eyes opened suddenly, and when his eyes widened, he saw bloodshot eyes, and it seemed that he hadn't slept well at all last night. When he was about to get up, he pulled the wound and moaned, and he was about to get up again, and his hands reached out to support him, and he was stunned and turned his head to see that he didn't know when he came.

"I sent out the battle report last night, and the Lord already has a receipt." There was a smile on his face, and he couldn't hide the excitement in his tone.

Zhou Wen didn't care about the pain in his body, and asked urgently: "Can the Lord deal with us?" ”

"The formal disposition will only come after the lord arrives, but the meaning revealed by the lord is that the lord does not blame us for losing the troops gathered in the four counties." Carving used the colloquial language of speculation: "Looks." When the Lord comes, he will command us to lead the army again. ”

"That's good, it's good......" Zhou Wen was relieved to hear that Lu Zhe would not punish the whole division, and he was also excited to hear that there was still a chance to lead the army, but he restrained the surprise in his heart, and hesitated in his mouth: "It's already a fluke if there is no punishment, how can you still order us to lead the army?" ”

Diao Ding's explanation is not clear, he can't say that there are not many people who can lead the army to fight alone in Nanjun, and those who can lead an army alone are either sent to Hengshan County or go to Cangwu County. Nanjun is not enough, and there are few people who can use Lu Zhe, right?

Listening to the wrong footsteps outside, the two glanced at each other, and Zhou Wen opened the curtain and walked out.

The 30,000 former troops who arrived last night gathered at the school ground, led by a grassroots officer at the level of a commander, lined up to receive food. At this time, the soldiers and non-soldiers can not only distinguish from the food, but also know everything at a glance when they look at the neatness of the line.

Zhou Wen and Diao Ding asked a few times before they knew where Mei Kai was, and they looked at the troops on the way they were looking, and they strangely found that the soldiers among the 30,000 people did not find the crossbowmen. After finding Mei Kai, you asked Diaoding.

"Crossbowmen?" Mei Li asked strangely, "How can there be no crossbowmen?" Out of thirty thousand, there were five thousand archers

Diao Ding lowered his voice, "How can the guest army compare with our army?" ”

"Oh......" Mei Kai glanced at the carving meaningfully, "The number of crossbowmen in the Nanjun soldiers is only four thousand. He didn't want to say much about the rest. knew that the two of them had good intentions, but they couldn't help but feel that Zhou Wenhe's carved hand stretched out a little longer.

Zhou Wen noticed Mei Kai's abnormality and touched Diaoding, and he himself saluted Mei Kai, and then pulled Diao Ding, who obviously wanted to say something, and left.

"The Qin army's arrow array is sharp, the guest army is not the headquarters, and it is expected that it will not be able to shoot at each other with the Qin army, so go with such a force......" Diao Ding felt that he had no selfish intentions, he just wanted to remind Mei Kai.

"General May naturally knows this." After a bitter battle of life and death, Zhou Wen and Diaoding's friendship was different, he interrupted Diaoding's words and persuaded: "Why do you bother to displease him? Speaking of this, he asked strangely, "Shouldn't the battle report be written by the two of us, how can it be ......?"

"Our army is different from other armies. The battle report reported to the Lord, Mei Shi will write a copy when he leads the army, and the commander of the garrison in Ye County will also write a copy," Diao Ding explained to Zhou Wen, and finally said: "This is a rule that has existed since Yiling. ”

Zhou Wen understood, if there is no special situation, there will be a total of three battle reports reported to Lu Zhe, which is to restore the process of the war more preparedly, so that the evaluation of battle merits becomes uncontroversial, and at the same time, each battle can be recorded as a battle example.

"Nanling City will build a fine building called 'Military Museum', which is mainly said to be the role of colleagues at this stage for colleagues at the level to learn from each other, and in the future, it is to let future generations understand the process and difficulty of starting a business." The look of anticipation and glory on his face when he said this.

Zhou Wen's body was shocked, and he repeated the paragraph "Let future generations understand the process of entrepreneurship". He can taste a lot of meaning from this sentence.

There are 5,000 archers in the 30,000 troops, and to be honest, the number is already a lot, and this is because Cheng Dù, who is really not sure of the guest army's endurance of battle, is afraid that hand-to-hand combat will soon collapse, so he simply picks out people with strong arms to act as archers.

The Qin army's arrow array is sharp, not only those who have personally fought with it are clear, but there is no one who is not clear today. The number of Lu Zhe's headquarters in Nanjun was only in the early 80,000s, and the garrisons everywhere distributed a large number of crossbowmen, so that among the 30,000 soldiers, there were only 5,000 crossbowmen, of which 4,000 were equipped with crossbows, and the rest were assigned to bed crossbows and car crossbows.

Most people in these years are no strangers to the use of bows and arrows, as long as they do not overly require accuracy, in fact, as long as they can understand the instructions such as "accumulation", "scattering" and "throwing", it is not difficult to pick out archers temporarily. Therefore, according to Lu Zhe's arrangement, among the total 100,000 troops, in addition to 5,000 crossbowmen, it is a better choice to select 10,000 or 20,000 from the guest army to serve as archers.

After eating the morning food, Mei Kai waited patiently for a quarter of an hour for the soldiers to eat, and then ordered to blow the horn to continue the march.

Naturally, it takes a lot of time for 30,000 troops to leave the camp, and in addition, they are arranged in a zigzag shape outside the camp, and it takes half an hour for Mei Kai to set off with the troops. They were now less than twenty-five miles away from Fort No. 2, and if they had gone faster and without accident, they would have arrived before the afternoon Shen Shi.

In fact, whether it was Wu Rui and Huan Chu's guest army, or the 20,000 people who were reorganized into large and small leaders, they had been in Nanjun for more than a month. In this month, Lu Zhe not only armed them, but also carried out the unification of passwords and several drills early in view of the fact that they would cooperate in future operations. Now, whether it is Lu Zhe or Mei Kai, what they are worried about is not that the order is not working, but how much resilience the guest army will have when fighting.

The route of the front army led by Mei Kai was the same as that taken by Zhou Wensuo's troops before, when they passed through the forest earlier, Mei Kai let the troops continue to move forward, and he led people into the forest to check the battlefield ruins.

About two miles into the forest, a strong smell of blood came to the nostril, and there was no need to look for it at all, and arrows could be seen everywhere on the body and branches of the trees. Many of the dwarf trees with smaller trunks were broken, blood flowed in a few places above the ground, and the thousands of corpses on the ground had turned pale to some blue after a night's loss.

"There should be more than 8,000 corpses...... "Mei Kai walked over and squatted down in front of a corpse, he pulled out the waist of the war dead, and took out a small wooden plaque from his battle robe.

Lu Zhe's soldiers, whether they were soldiers or auxiliaries, would receive a wooden plaque on the spot when they registered and made the register, and on the wooden plaque was written the name of the soldier, the army, shi, tun, and nationality of the soldier.

"C36 Wu, B14 Shi, Jia Batun ......" Mei Li glanced at the wooden card and put it back in its place, he stood up and looked at the old battlefield site full of the remains of the war dead, "The Qin army retreated in a hurry and did not cut off the head representing the results of the battle. The Qin army will cut the head of the enemy army in every battle, such a law has never changed since Shang Jun changed the law, a qiē can not be evaluated just because there is no head, "the same robe ......", he probably knows why he didn't cut it, retreating in a hurry is one of them, and being difficult to identify is the most important.

In fact, after the Qin army came to attack, Nanjun's battle robe should indeed be changed, so that he could clearly distinguish between the enemy and me during the battle, but Lu Zhe had no intention of changing at all, and the generals only replied with "It's too late, I'll do it later".

After listening to what he told last night, Mei Kai slowly understood why Lu Zhe didn't change for the time being, and it was difficult to distinguish between friend and foe when he was mixed up, which was why Zhou Wen's troops were able to fight fiercely with the Qin army. Obviously, the color of the uniform is not easy to recognize, and it has an impact on the Qin army, which has superior combat strength, and it is clearly not that it cannot be changed, but that it does not want to be changed.

"Lord's thoughts, huh." Mei Kai kept up with the team again, but she was thinking in her heart, since Lu Zhe's intentions had already been guessed, would she also use this to make arrangements? (To be continued......)
