Chapter 30: Tiger's Eye (4)

The horses galloped wildly, far away from the place where the rebels were fighting. Looking back, I don't know who lit a few fires in the town, and the thick black pillars of smoke leaped and tumbled with their teeth and claws, like a monstrous beast, completely devouring the once peaceful villages and towns.

"Don't delay, let's go!" Wang De shouted to several of his subordinates who were watching the fire. Among the samurai who were injured at the right time, several of the less injured had been bandaged, and hurriedly urged the horse to go ahead, and one of the seriously injured people was injured in the waist and abdomen, unable to sit up straight, and could only be supported by his companions to ride the two of them on a horse, but it didn't take long to fall behind, slowing down the speed of the entire team.

Wang De was the leader of the tent, and he was not familiar with the armies under the command of the king of the East China Sea, so he couldn't tell who those stragglers who were scurrying around the mountains and wilderness should belong, and he didn't know how to deal with them. These rebels were as cowardly as chickens in the face of thieves, but they were the most courageous when they robbed the people, destroying the territory that the shogunate of the king of the East China Sea could still control everywhere they went; If anyone provokes them, they will immediately surround them like a hornet. Thinking that the rebels who had just killed and dispersed were likely to call their friends to catch up and retaliate, Wang De was so anxious that he couldn't help himself.

In the autumn of the first year of Guangxi, the county lord of Jingling was in distress in the Taihang Mountains. This incident frightened the king of the East China Sea very much, and he did not allow the county lord to go out at will for a whole year. Although the military and political situation has become increasingly complicated since then, and the king of the East China Sea has to bother his heroic daughter to run around, he personally arranged to double the number of knights of the county lord. But Rao is like this, and he can't help the county lord to act so recklessly!

Wang De watched the surrounding situation vigilantly, and complained secretly in his heart. He is different from the county lord, after all, it has been common for the people of Li to be bullied over the years, and he has seen a lot of it, so he doesn't take it very seriously. He vaguely felt unworthy about Brother Paoze, who died in battle, but it was not easy to bring it up to the county lord.

Wang De clamped the horse's belly between his legs and sped up to catch up with the county lord who was walking at the front of the team. Because the road was dark at night, Wang De was not only worried about missing the lodging, but also worried that the county lord's horse would miss his front hooves, so he turned the horse closer and led the reins of the horse under the county lord's seat.

The county lord was muttering something to himself, and his face was very bad. walked for a while, but heard her sneer: "If you win a battle, you want to be rewarded, you want to be promoted and get rich, and if you lose a battle, it's like this?" Who brought out such scum-like soldiers? Well? With such an army, can you deal with the Hu people? ”

Wang De knew that this was just a complaint from the county lord, and he didn't need to answer; So he only followed silently, and sighed for a long time.

The county lord has a resolute personality and very means, and has played a huge role in the rise of the East China Sea King, and is really a strange woman in ten thousand. But no matter how shrewd and capable she is, she can't personally put on her armor and fight. Seeing that the strength of the overlord that he had worked so hard to manage was crumbling because of the unfavorable war, the county lord's anger can be imagined.

The question is, the army of the king of the East China Sea is like this, and the army of all the people in the world is not like this? Even after winning the battle, the reward is also the official and general who leads the army, what does this have to do with the low-level soldiers? Since the founding of this dynasty, the status of the soldiers has been as humble as dogs, driven and bullied, so once the defeat is free from the layers of control of the officers, the anger and madness that have been suppressed for a long time in the bones will erupt irrepressibly like a volcano and turn into a huge destructive force.

As for whether such an army can fight against the Hu people...... Needless to say, it definitely won't work. The Xiongnu and Han kingdoms have gone south all times, and it is this generation that is cut and killed like melons and vegetables; And it is this generation who was coerced by thieves and changed from an official soldier to a thief in a moment.

"Wang De, you should tell me, Wang Bin's ability to use soldiers to govern the army is better than that of the rest of the generals under his father's command?" After a few more moments, the county lord suddenly asked.

Recently, Wang Bin, as the representative of the king of the East China Sea, led the elite armor soldiers stationed in Luoyang, and after imprisoning the king of Qinghe in Jin Yongcheng and controlling the emperor's supporters in the court, his troops have completely overwhelmed the palace guards and taken over the internal and external armaments of the imperial capital.

Wang Bin is a powerful general under the command of the king of the East China Sea, this gentleman is not a pure martial artist, he once served as a general of Beizhonglang, and he overwhelmed many colleagues in terms of fame. Although he has the experience of attaching himself to the king of Chengdu, he can win the trust of the king of the East China Sea, and he is really a rare outlier among countless high-ranking officials and generals who have fallen due to political disputes. At the end of last year, because the shogunate was dissatisfied with Ding Shao's achievements in suppressing bandits, Liao Liao even intended to replace Ding Shao with Wang Bin as the assassin of Jizhou, which gave Ding Shao a big headache. But in the eyes of men like Wang De, Wang Bin is not a martial artist at all, but just a politician in armor.

Wang De thought for a while, and replied carefully: "Wang Sima is both loyal and visionary. It's just that his subordinates are short-sighted and unfamiliar with Wang Sima's experience of leading the army to fight. ”

"That's not as good as Qian Duan, Wang Zan and others." The county lord of Jingling bluntly expressed Wang De's thoughts. She shook her head: "Qian Duan and Wang Zan, the two generals, led 100,000 people, were killed by thieves and lost their armor, which can be said to be useless; The rout of the army also disturbs the place, and once it is so far, it can be called incompetent to manage the army...... He is really a mediocre general. Hehe, if Wang Bin is not as good as them, how can he keep Luoyang? ”

"Luoyang still has the troops of generals such as Zhu Dan, Cao Chao, and Shi Rong, and Hongnong Taishou Yuanyan is also a general, with them, Hu Er must not be able to succeed lightly."

"There aren't enough of these people!" The county lord said categorically: "After arriving in Luoyang, you must immediately order the local feudal town King Qin." Otherwise, relying on those incompetents, Luoyang will not be able to keep it at all! ”

Wang De suddenly understood what the county lord meant, and he said with a straight face: "Yes!" What Pei Langjun said is extremely reasonable! That's exactly how it should be! ”

The county lord nodded with satisfaction and hurried forward.

The group rode a group of Dawan good horses that traveled thousands of miles a day, and they approached the sour jujube at noon the next day. But as expected, there were already thieves riding in this place, and the people were shocked overnight, so everyone turned back to Yanjin, detained a ferry from the magistrate to cross the river, and then passed through Ji County and Hanoi County, intending to cross Mengjin and arrive in Luoyang.

Hanoi County had fallen into the hands of the Xiongnu Han State in the first year of Guangxi. Liu He, the king of Zuoxian, used to surprise attack the army of the party, which set off from the camp of the Hun Yewang. After the defeat of Jinyang, the strength of the Huns retreated to the north of Yiguan, and the imperial court then took the Anbei general Cao Wuxing Hanoi to guard the affairs and led more than 10,000 people to defend it.

The three counties of Hanoi, Hadong and Binh Duong, which are the salient areas north of the Great River for Sizhou, are the first line directly facing the military threat of the Xiongnu. Hanoi is too shou Cao Wu, Pingyang is too shou Song Xuan, and Hedong is too shou Lu Shu echo each other and help each other. However, this time the Xiongnu army moved south, and defeated the Song Pump and Lu Shu with a devastating force, and the troops had already approached the mountainous areas in the northwest of Hanoi.

The county lord and others are getting closer to the wild king, and more and more people are fleeing along the way; When approaching Guomen, the flow of people on the official road can be called bustling, and when you look at it, it is all black and oppressive crowds; All that poured into my ears were boiling human voices. Listening to the accents, most of these people were natives of Hanoi County, and it was clear that they still remembered the brutal and tyrannical behavior of the Xiongnu occupation last year, and at the same time, none of them had confidence in the combat ability of the imperial army. In early summer, the weather was already hot and dry, but everyone looked at the scene of the desperate escape of the people, and they couldn't help but feel depressed together.

Although the people tried their best to avoid the county lord's cavalry when they saw it, the people on the official road were crowded and crowded, and they couldn't make much way, which inevitably delayed the speed of the group's march. Hu Cong, who opened the road in front, came back with a horse and asked Wang De for instructions: "There are too many people in front, and the direction is opposite to us, so it is too difficult to walk." Otherwise, I'll take ten men and drive them out into the fields on both sides!" ”

Before Wang De could reply, the county lord interjected and asked, "Is this the only way to go?" ”

Na Hu Cong was stunned and said: "There is only this official road to the wild king......

"What about Wen County? We don't go to Yewang, we go directly to Wen County and cross Mengjin! There is no other way! The county lord asked loudly.

"Yes! Yes! Hu Cong was taken aback and agreed. The group immediately descended from the official road and stepped across the field to another road.

"The garrisons in the Central Plains are all weak, and the Huns have not yet arrived, and they are already like this! Look at it, the official road is close to the left, and there is not even a single soldier to collect it! The county lord sneered while urging the horse: "As soon as you arrive in Luoyang, you will immediately issue the Qinwang document!" ”

Recently, a reader asked about the update. Here's how to kneel down and respond:

Crab changed positions in the middle of the year, and recently the new unit officially opened, very busy, and it was almost impossible to code words during the day. If you look at the update time of the recent chapters, you can see that I almost always send it at 123 o'clock in the middle of the night. In addition, the number of updates has decreased, but the number of words in each chapter has increased. It's a pity that a few days ago, this state was angrily scolded by the editor.,I was asked to increase the frequency of updates.,For this reason,The number of words in the last few chapters is often less than three thousand.,So that the pressure of code words every day is slightly lower.,The number of words that are not charged is more.,It's also a compensation for readers.。

This book has been written so far, and the average order is less than 400, and the economic benefits are almost none, but fortunately, the crab has always been based on interest in codewords. The paid author is a food and clothing parent, and the little one is politely served. Readers who don't pay, please be lenient with me, it's really limited in ability, and there are some things that concubines really can't do. Even if it is a master who rewards 180,000 vertical and horizontal coins in one go...... Well, that's another story.

That's about it. At the very least, I will guarantee a serious attitude in my writing, and I will not be a eunuch.

Again, the head of the head.
