In the middle of the jungle, a guard waited in a clearing in front of the jungle.

In ancient times, this was the place where the official road passed.

The only thing worth celebrating is that a tent was built here, and he arrived half a day in the morning, so that he could rest for half a day, eat military rations, and accumulate strength.

The rain did not stop, and the black clouds continued, adding a touch of oppressive atmosphere to the battlefield.

Five hundred soldiers were all in the tents, with knives, guns, and bows in their hands, looking solemnly and nervously, and from time to time at the distant wilderness with worry.

It was still dawn and everyone couldn't sleep.

In the main camp, Wang Shoutian's face was calm, and he was still a little nervous in his heart.

Thousands of people fought and strife, just thinking about it, they felt that the blood was not only not hot, but cold.

"My lord, why don't you set up an ambush?" At this time, in the main camp, all the generals were concentrated, He Sheng, Chai Jia, He Zhong, Zhang Yi, and He Yi were all there, and Chai Jiajin said.

"Lu Ji, the new general of the Central Sichuan Capital, is a cautious person, this forest is not thick, it is not possible to hide so many people, besides, if you design ambushes everywhere, you will lose the right way in the army - you will be in the right and upright army, understand?" Wang Shoutian said.

In his previous life, if he said that the most insightful thing was an article that said that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were very similar, but Zhu Di did not have the courage of Zhu Yuanzhang to be an upright teacher.

Regardless of whether this point of view is right or not, Wang Shoutian highly respects this sentence "Presence in the upright teacher".

Not to mention anything else, Wang Shoutian succeeded in a sneak attack and killed Chen Xiang, which gained some fame, but while most people admit it, they will also think in their hearts: "It's nothing more than a trick!"

But he will not treat Wang Shoutian as a real future, what is the difference?

The difference is that there is a lack of courage and pattern to win by "being in the presence of an upright teacher", as long as this is lacking, no matter how the victory is, it will not condense the king's spirit.

Intrigue and intrigue are indispensable, but it should be more at the strategic level, forming a situation of fighting more and fighting less, or guerrilla warfare and harassment warfare at the lowest level.

In the real decisive battle, there must be a team that dares to fight tough battles and frontal battles, which is the real capital to deter generals!

But of course, there is no need to elaborate on this, Wang Shoutian said indifferently: "Order the army to eat breakfast, and the whole army is on guard after eating, this place is the location chosen by the capital of Sichuan to harvest rice at night!"

At this time, Wang Shoutian was dressed in battle armor, adding a bit of heroic spirit, and between his words, he had a majesty, which was unconvincing.

"No!" all the generals came out to deliver the order.

"Report!" Sure enough, after half an hour, a scout half-knelt in front and said loudly: "The enemy has been found in the front, about a team of people, suspected to be the enemy forward scout, please instruct." ”

"Probe again!" Wang Shoutian ordered, and at the same time ordered others: "Order all the troops to go out of the camp and line up on the flat ground!"

"No!" the two below responded in unison, then gave a military salute, turned to leave, and passed the order.

The order was passed out, and suddenly, the team of 500 people, according to the formation of the Wuhuo battalion, lined up, everyone was solemn and solemn, even in the face of colleagues, they did not dare to say anything, lined up, and finally lined up on a wilderness in front of the official road, and the movements and teams were uniform, which was the training to achieve a certain effect.

This is the military style he needs, Wang Shoutian was secretly happy in his heart, he rode to the front of the array, his sharp eyes swept across the soldiers, and said: "Soldiers, the enemy army is coming, to cut our rice, kill our families, I don't talk nonsense now, you are willing to go into battle with me to kill the enemy, and make meritorious contributions!"

The soldiers all responded, and their cries shook the sky: "I am willing to fight for the captain!"

Wang Shoutian nodded, and said: "This time, I will personally lead the army and supervise the war, if someone escapes from the battle, there will be no forgiveness, the cavalry behind the general is the supervising army, who dares to retreat, regardless of the fire brigade battalion, all of them will be killed!"

These thirty cavalry are not the personal cavalry of the great marshal, but their own cavalry team, although they are far inferior to the personal cavalry of the great marshal, but they are still more than enough to be a military law team.

As soon as these words came out, the five hundred soldiers were silent.

"But if someone beheads and makes meritorious service, I will see it in my eyes, promote according to merit, and never break my word!" Wang Shoutian said loudly, and there was a brief silence on the field for a moment, and then the soldiers all shouted: "I am willing to fight for the captain!"

After mobilization, it is just waiting.

Enemy scouts appeared in the distance, and after careful inspection, they would notice a positive situation, and the scouts hurriedly searched, and even inserted themselves into the jungle to see if there was an ambush, and then returned the news.

While Wang Shoutian was waiting, a middle-aged man in armor was listening to the report of the scout captain in front of him: "What, the enemy army is in front of the formation, blocking the way of our army?"

"Yes, General, there are about 550 enemy troops, of which 30 are cavalry, and there are no van soldiers!"

Originally, when the army was dispatched, it was necessary to have soldiers as logistics and miscellaneous labor, but now it is only fighting in the county, but it is only a few tens of miles, of course, there is no need.

"Is there a black-clothed guard?" This middle-aged man is Lu Ji, he is the commander of the capital, a general, and of course he can be called a general.

The black-clothed guard is the elite of Wenyang Town.

"No, General!" the scout captain replied, "The jungle is very sparse, and there are no ambushes for fifty miles around. ”

"You can look closely. Lu Ji frowned and asked.

"My lord, we have been fighting with the black-clothed guards for more than ten years, and we know each other very well, this enemy army is only five hundred, whether there are black-clothed guards or not, we can see at a glance, there is no falsehood. "The scout captain should do it.

“...... You guys stand down!" Lu Ji's face changed slightly, and the other party's attitude made him a little angry, but these people are veterans who have been fighting for more than ten years, and now they are on the verge of battle, and they are ominous, so they endure it.

As soon as the scout captain retreated, the general who had not spoken just now came out, who was full of beard, fierce and burly, and said on his knees: "General, this kid is so bold, please give the general an order to attack it immediately." ”

"What Captain Cheng said is not wrong, this person attacked and killed General Chen Xiang by despicable means, we can't wait to eat his flesh and drink his blood, please give the general an order. ”

"This kid only has five hundred and fifty people, and he is still the first to build a guard, although our army has left one hundred in the county, there are six hundred at this time, how can it not win?"

"Please give the general an order!"

"Please give the general an order!"

In the face of the surging generals, Lu Ji's face was even more pale, Chen Xiang was good at fighting, he had more prestige in the army, and he was killed, and many henchmen in the army were thinking about revenge day and night.

Originally, he was just a school captain, and if he didn't comply with this heart, he was afraid that it would be difficult to grasp the power in the future.

At this time, I had to endure it, and the other party was indeed only five hundred and fifty people, although the two armies were not much different, but Chuan Zhongwei was an old battalion after all, and against Chu Jian, how could he win!

Thinking of this, Lu Ji finally made up his mind and said: "This kid dares to set up a formation on the flat ground, we will dare to break it in a dignified manner, and the generals will listen to the order, line up and step forward, and those who violate the order will be killed!"

"No!" the generals listened together, and the army stepped forward.

Wang Shoutian looked from afar, waited patiently, and after a while, the enemy formation finally made up its mind and pressed up.

"Lu Ji finally couldn't bear it anymore, and what he said is also true, now that the number of the two armies is equal, if he sees that I don't fight and retreat, how will he suppress the army in the future?"

"Kill!" a high-pitched roar was heard in the distance, and a group of soldiers, also in formation, appeared in front.

"He Yi, it's up to you in this battle. Wang Shoutian said, the only thirty horsemen in the team have all been handed over to He Yi.

In the previous life, this person could use twenty horses, galloping among thousands of people, invincible, unstoppable, this time facing only 700 people, and most of them are recruits, so he can naturally open up the situation.

That's trust.

He Yi rode on the horse, his face was solemn, and he unconsciously carried a bit of solemnity, but he just responded: "No!"

Wang Shoutian retracted his mind, his face was not happy or sad, his expression was indifferent, and he looked into the distance, while Gan Hou was about and left Wang Shoutian, standing with a knife, just waiting for an order.

Although Kawanaka kept a batch of seeds last time, the real backbone is definitely no more than one hundred and fifty people, and all the others are recruits.

The newly built guard by himself, strictly speaking, only the original team was through the battle formation, and the others were all recruits, and they only went through the baptism of the first battle of killing thieves.

However, with hard training in the army and big fish and meat, Wang Shoutian believed that the quality of his soldiers was above that of the other party.

The comparison of soldiers alone has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there is not much difference.

But in terms of the number of qi, Wenyang Town and Changding Town were originally half a catty and eight taels, but now that Liu Siming is dead, his son Liu Chaoyi has succeeded to the throne, and his luck has been greatly reduced, and on his own side, the handsome Wang Zunzhi is still alive, and he has already won a few points.

The losses in Sichuan were huge, not only covered with the shadow of defeat, but also the people who really had the courage to do it, but Lu Ji alone, and now there are now five generals in Wang Shoutian's army.

He Sheng, Chai Jia, He Zhong, Zhang Yi, and He Yi all have their own luck, and at this time, they are all in the army, and they will all lose and win, and they will support themselves to win, and this number of qi is far above the other party.

Besides, the middle of the river is here, although it is not far away, but after all, it has run dozens of miles, and the soldiers in their own camp have been resting for half a day, so they have a good spare time.

Therefore, it seems to be quite, but it is actually a lot of victories, and if this is not victorious, it means that the sky will be destroyed.

"Order all the archers to obey the order and prepare to shoot!" Wang Shoutian said.

The officer in charge of the first flag responded to the order, took down the second command flag, and issued the order.

Suddenly, a team of archers quickly moved into action, and under the cover of sword and shield soldiers, they raised arrows and bows.

At this time, the enemy troops also continued to move forward, the ground was trampled and trembled slightly, and the atmosphere between the two armies became more and more tense.

The more nervous, the quieter, at this time, it can really be said that the needle drop can be heard.

"Ready!" Wang Shoutian shouted without hesitation as the enemy army approached.

With a heavy wave of the banner, the fifty archers suddenly raised their bows, and each of them filled the longbow in their hands, and the bowstring was taut.

"Release!" Ling Qi pointed at the flag, and the "boom" sound of the arrows was endless, and more than a dozen screams suddenly rang out from the enemy formation, and almost at the same time, the enemy shouted and charged.

At this time, there were only fifty meters in front of the formation, and as soon as they rushed, the archers could only send out one arrow, and after more than ten seconds, the two armies rushed together, and the sound of killing was everywhere.
