Chapter 196: Son-in-law (I)
Thirty warships set sail, lined up, and it looked quite spectacular.
Lu Suhai stood on the high platform of the flagship, with a kind of majesty, and the generals on the left and right were tall and mighty, which could only be green leaves that set off flowers.
This is the majesty of Lu Suhai's official position and luck, which makes people impressed.
The ship was fully loaded with soldiers, and the lost soldiers were all full.
"Is there an order from the military department to descend?" Lu Suhai stood on the flagship, picked up the monocular, looked into the distance, and asked the deputy general beside him at the same time.
The lieutenant general has just come up, and he came to tell the news.
Seeing Lu Suhai asking, the deputy general replied: "Governor, I just received an official letter, which is given to you by the Ministry of War, please enlighten it yourself." ”
"The official document of the Ministry of War?" Lu Suhai put down the monocular, no longer looked into the distance, and turned his gaze: "Where is this official document now?"
"The last general has brought it to you. The lieutenant said, handing over a letter.
Lu Suhai took the letter and immediately opened it to watch.
After looking at it, a smile appeared.
"The military department has been instructed to do it, so what about the next step?" the adjutant general asked.
Lu Suhai smiled faintly and said: "The king has ordered us through the military department, let us be responsible for escorting the troop carriers, if there are enemy ships, just intercept them." ”
"Only responsible for interception?"
"Not bad. Lu Suhai said: "Since the king ordered to come down, we are only responsible for intercepting it, and within a day, the army will arrive, and when the time comes, send them across the river by boat, and they will attack Jingnan!"
"Governor, after we have been waiting for such a long battle, are we not the ducks that we have arrived, and let them fly away?
"Why do you have good things to do, let the foot soldiers do it, our sailor is not a vegetarian, when it comes to attacking the city and plundering the land, the sailor is not ambiguous!" When the adjutant general heard this, he immediately felt a little pimple.
In the Chu army under Wang Hongyi's account, the sailor is the most junior force, and the foot soldiers of the Chu army have made great achievements in attacking the city and plundering the land before.
At that time, the sailor had not yet appeared.
The foot soldiers have a lot of honors because of their participation in many battles, and in comparison, although the sailors have won battles with the Wu army sailors and the Jingnan Chu army sailors, their qualifications are still shallow.
Even with Lu Suhai, the governor of the navy, his official position has reached the third grade, which makes some veteran generals psychologically complicated and uneasy.
The soldiers of the two armies were holding back their strength to see which one had a greater role.
Hearing that Admiral Wang handed over the important task to the foot soldiers, it was no wonder that the deputy general couldn't hold his breath!
"There are few opportunities after the war, but this matter is the king's will, I can't tolerate you and I don't want to, quickly pass the order, and order the generals of the navy division to act accordingly!" Although Lu Suhai was also a little disappointed, it was not much, now he is already from the third grade, and sooner or later he will be the third grade, which has surpassed many old ministers, and there is no need to be in the limelight at this time.
Besides, since it is Wang Hongyi's will, he must obey his words and will not do anything that will not be subject to foreign military orders to cause trouble.
"In this case, the last general will take the order, and act according to the words of the Grand Governor!" the lieutenant general was very disappointed, but had to respond to the order.
In the early morning, the smoke of Wuling County and Yuekou County was billowing out, and the sound of killing filled a mound outside the city, under the banner of the Chu army, the guard general Peng Guozhong looked at it and exclaimed: "I have broken a few places, and I am still resisting, and I don't want to have strong soldiers in this county......"
They were the vanguard, that is, they came to occupy the stronghold, and the county was chosen.
"The rear battalion has rushed up,......" said one of the fire captains who was observing, suddenly shouting.
This rear battalion is not a logistics battalion, but refers to the five battalions in the front, rear, left, right, and middle, forming a guard.
At the same time, dozens of soldiers, led by one person, screamed and shouted, and rushed in through a gap.
The soldiers of the county also resisted desperately, intercepting with long knives and quick bows, and paved all the way under the hooves of their horses.
"Boom", the gap mouth was fighting, and a fire instantly flooded the field of vision in front of the formation, and when the fireworks disappeared, I saw that one person inside was still fighting, unstoppable, overturning some soldiers, and quickly clearing a bloody road.
"It's Wu Xingzong, this little guy is really a warrior!" Seeing this, the guard general Peng Guozhong couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.
I saw the front attacking, and the soldiers behind followed up violently, and finally, the soldiers in the county collapsed, let out a cry of liver and gallbladder cracking, and collapsed backwards.
"Don't escape......" shouted Lisha, the county's town general.
"My lord, if we continue like this, our sons will all die...... Let's retreat!" and at this moment, a captain in front of him, covered in blood, rushed in front of him and shouted.
"Die!" Lisha shouted angrily, slashed with his sword, blood splattered, and the lieutenant showed a stunned expression, threw himself to the ground, and did not move.
Lisha looked left and right and shouted, "Follow me to the ......"
At this moment, there were several sharp horns outside, the big flag waved, and the camp flag in the distance quickly formed a breakthrough echelon formation and swooped down.
"Kill!" Li Sha gritted his teeth and pounced, and suddenly, the two staggered locations formed a death area, slashing each other, just a few minutes, and the people who rushed in were either dead or covered with the blood of the enemy and themselves.
"Boom!", suddenly, the originally crumbling city wall shook violently, and in the smoke and dust, the one-foot-wide wall collapsed violently, drowning some enemy and enemy soldiers who could not escape.
"It's broken, it's really broken!"
The Northern Chu army cheered regardless of the few people lost, and behind them, countless figures wearing paper armor roared like a tide into the cracked gap, spewing blood rain.
The commander of the Northern Chu Army, obviously very disciplined, did not give the other party a chance to breathe, just a few minutes, surrounded Li Sha, although Li Sha was skilled in martial arts, even cut several people, but he couldn't catch it in one breath, so he wanted to take a few steps back, only to see the sword flash, this person felt that he was flying into the sky.
“...... What a quick knife ......" This was his last consciousness.
In the back, Wu Xingzong was covered in blood, grabbed the head violently, and roared.
At this moment, the remnants of the soldiers and generals of the Southern Chu Army all changed their faces greatly, and they suddenly lost their fighting spirit, at this time, Wu Xingzong shouted: "Give up the sword and don't kill." ”
At this shout, many people dropped their weapons, knelt on the ground, and shouted: "I am willing to surrender!"
As soon as someone took the lead in surrendering, the surrounding soldiers suddenly collapsed, dropped their weapons one after another, and knelt on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, only a few troops were still resisting, and this time it was like a tide, and it was drowned.
An hour later, a large number of civilians were driven to move the soldiers who had died outside the city.
The war dead of the Southern Chu Army were buried collectively, while the war dead of the Northern Chu Army were distinguished one by one, and there were military judges who recorded and counted the iron plates.
A little farther away, in the makeshift camp, was a wooden table, on which a large number of people were sitting, eating and drinking without any scruples.
Many soldiers hung up their lottery, but they didn't care if they weren't seriously injured.
seized the county seat and directly killed ten pigs, this is today's food.
Large quantities of bread were brought up, and large pieces of fat were served in pots, and finally large pots of chopped soup made of bones and entrails, which the soldiers rolled up and swallowed.
The deputy team is starting, the grade is one level higher, the soldiers have no wine, they have a bowl of rice wine, and they can enjoy it with the army, there is fish and meat.
Wu Xingzong and Tang Yuan were both gulping down.
At this time, the guard general came over, looking at these, he couldn't help but smile, at this time he did not show the majesty of the official, the reason is very simple, according to the Chu system, come out to be a soldier, the basic training is to be in the camp, and after a few combat baptisms, with combat experience, it is the elite.
The battlefield cannot be completely replaced by training alone, so these veterans who have fought are all wealth.
With them, they can fight, make meritorious contributions, be promoted and make a fortune, and they can show their prestige in ordinary times, but at this time, they must not ask for it.
The military judge was very busy at this time, counting the heads of the battlefield, and began to check them one by one, sorting out everyone's military exploits.
"How is Wu Xingzong doing this time?" asked Peng Guozhong, the guard general, when he arrived at the military judge's office.
"The situation was too chaotic at that time, it was difficult to calculate, but I killed the enemy town general Li Sha!"
"Hey, if you kill this person, you don't have to count other soldiers!" According to the enemy's military system, this town general Li Sha is almost equivalent to a general of the first guard.
This Wu Xingzong is really lucky.
Unless such a great achievement is concealed from the beginning, if the military judge knows about the report, he will not be able to conceal it, and the superior will definitely reward him.
This guy has to at least be promoted to the next level, and it may be the second level - the nineteen-year-old deputy battalion leader?
According to the strict order of the military system, in fact, the deputy battalion was starting, and the charge was not advocated, that is, the mortality rate was greatly reduced.
The guard general Peng Guozhong turned around a few times, and suddenly, he had an idea and ordered a few words at the moment.
In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon, and I saw that under the warm sun, the county town was quiet, and the people did not dare to come out, only the black camp tent stretched in the open space.
In the camp, the post-war medical officers were still busy, treating them one by one, and the seriously wounded were lying down.
The rest of the soldiers, according to the queue, neatly arranged, checked, registered, some expressionless, some exchanged heads, some checked their weapons, basically did not have the impetuousness and nervousness of the recruits, a guard, a camp of 600 people, did not form much sound, naturally formed a solemn atmosphere.
This is the army, Wu Xingzong sighed, and after a while, he rushed to the residence of the guard, which was filled with the fragrance of tea.
However, this is not tea, it is a special tea cake made in the army.
This kind of tea cake mixed with some vinegar ginger and medicine with coarse tea is quite beneficial to the march, but now this kind of thing has no possibility of popularization, and can only be distributed above the battalion.
After entering, the guard made him stand, squinted his eyes and drank tea, asked a few words about the situation, and suddenly said, "You haven't married a wife yet, have you?"
"Yes, not yet!"
"I have a daughter, fifteen this year, just right for you, what do you think?" said the guard casually.
Wu Xingzong was stunned, but he was stunned, and the next moment, he knelt down with a "snap" and said, "Bid down to meet your father-in-law." ”
This nondescript title made the guard laugh fiercely: "You are good, you are really good!"
