Chapter 1182: Carrying on the Past and Opening up the Future (Part 72) Relentless

It came as fast as the wind, but when it returned, it was like a snail squirming on the ground. The long team stretched out on the snow for several miles, and the carts were filled with all kinds of supplies. Everything from grain to cloth, Changqiaoji in Huining County and the eight villages below were looted as if they were attacked by locusts. Popular Novels Soldiers lined up on both sides, with the civilians they kidnapped in the middle. These civilians were carrying or carrying their belongings, but now they have become the spoils of the Western Zhao army. Compared with the loss of these belongings, , what the people are more afraid of is that they don’t know where their own fate is. Looking at the smiling West Zhao troops, the resentment in their eyes is extremely strong. If the bandits are hateful, the bandits only rob property, but these West Zhao troops are comparable to Bandits are even more hateful. They not only want money, but also people.

Guo Fu was riding on the horse, and his pride could not be expressed. This time the operation was entirely proposed and organized by him, from the collection of intelligence = pig = pig = island = novel ww.zhuzh to the final attack, now Gaining a lot of money not only solved the immediate needs of his troops, but also benefited the entire army. His status in the eyes of the general will be even higher because of this battle.

Yes, Guo Fu thinks this is a war. Even if their opponents are just some unarmed people. Looking at his soldiers, Guo Fu was beaming with joy.

Strictly speaking, his soldiers were more like county clowns at this time. A sentry commander walking next to Guo Fu was wrapped in a bright red sheet, carrying a spear on his shoulder, carrying several chickens and ducks with their feet tied, and a cloth bag tied around his neck. There were actually some big cakes inside, which he probably fished out from someone's pot. After walking for a while, he took out the big cakes from the bag and took a few bites, his face full of satisfaction.

Looking further away, almost all of the one or two thousand soldiers looked like this, with their bodies covered with looted bits and pieces.

From time to time, people in the team fell. Immediately, the soldiers shouted and cursed, and the spears in their hands hit the fallen people's backs and legs mercilessly. They shouted angrily at them to stand up and continue moving forward. Even if these people who fell were just an old man and a woman, Guo Fu ignored it all. In his opinion, these were people under the rule of the enemy, so they were also enemies.

When it comes. It only took him most of the night to lead these more than 2,000 soldiers, but now, they have passed a full half day, but they have only walked less than half of the way. Read the full text of the latest chapter, but Guo Fu is not in a hurry. Firstly, it is because Huining's garrison originally only had 5,000 people. Last night, General Li Mingjun knocked out 1,000 of them. There are 2,000 cavalry from the General behind. He was not afraid of Huining's enemies chasing him when he was holding the battle formation. If Zhou Zilong really came running without his life, he would only become a dead soul under the general's sword. Presumably, the general would never refuse such a military exploit.

As for whether this action would trigger an all-out war between the two countries, Guo Fucai didn't bother to think about it. I've already become like this. I have nothing to eat and nothing to drink. Even the fucking bandits are... Why not, how can you manage so much? Even if the blame comes down from above, there is still someone higher up to support it, isn’t there a general? He is Zhao Shoufu's favorite general.

What else can be done to him?

Lift the skin around you. He happily took a sip of the wine, and a wave of warmth suddenly rose from his Dantian and spread all over his body in an instant. This was something he bought from a villager's house yesterday. The villagers seemed to have a good family background. They actually had fine wine produced by the Wu family of Han Dynasty. Grandma’s wine was good, but it was also expensive. How long had it been since I had drunk it? A dignified general. Not as good as an ordinary person on the other side. It's really impossible to live this life.

"General Guo, let everyone take a rest!" A tooth general ran over and reported.

"How far have we walked, and we have to rest? Are the people disobedient?" Guo Fuhu said with a face, "If you whip them, if they are not honest, I will kill a few chickens and show them to the monkeys."

General Ya said with a smile: "General Guo, it's not that those mud-legged people are disobedient, it's that many brothers really can't walk."

Guo Fu's face became even colder: "Are they not as strong as these mud-legged people?"

"No, General Guo, weren't our brothers very hungry before? Today we suddenly have something to eat. Many brothers really ate a little too much. After holding on, they were in a hurry to go on their way. Many of them were bad. There are several people in the subordinate troops who are rolling on the ground with abdominal pain. It seems that it is impossible. I think it is better to let the brothers rest and digest. Otherwise, there will only be more people. have such symptoms.”

Hearing this reason, Guo Fu's expression became more brilliant: "They are a bunch of bastards. I have only heard of people starving to death, but I have never seen anyone starve to death."

Although he said this, the army is his own capital. Guo Fu reluctantly gave the order, "Rest on the spot. We are also waiting for the general. The general should also catch up."

Li Mingjun grabbed more supplies and food from Changqiaoji, but his retreat was not as smooth as Guo Fu. First, when he was in the town, more than a dozen soldiers disappeared inexplicably, including men and horses, and then during the retreat On the way, enemy reinforcements from Huining finally arrived.

This is Zhou Zilong's headquarters, about 3,000 people. After joining the 1,000 garrison in Oak Bay, nearly 4,000 people followed him neither far nor close, neither attacking nor retreating. That's it. The ghost followed them.

Li Mingjun once tried to defeat this army, but the commander Zhou Zilong was extremely cunning, and the army's formation was kept extremely tight. Once it was discovered that Li Mingjun had the intention to attack, he immediately gathered into a square formation. The most hateful thing is that this Among this army, they actually carried the latest weapon of the Han army, the divine machine crossbow. This kind of weapon can fire hundreds of crossbow arrows and has a range of hundreds of steps. It is a huge threat to the rushing cavalry. After attacking Once, after losing more than a dozen cavalry, Li Mingjun gave up this plan because Zhou Zilong actually gathered about two hundred cavalry in addition to this infantry phalanx. He had just started to attack his infantry phalanx. This guy The two hundred cavalrymen appeared from the flanks and launched an attack on their convoy. They fired rockets at the convoy from a distance, with the obvious intention of burning these supplies.

This was vital material that Li Mingjun wanted to use to get his army through this winter, so he couldn't allow it to be lost. Li Mingjun had no choice but to withdraw the troops that attacked Zhou Zilong and pursue the cavalry. However, as soon as the cavalry saw their return, they immediately ran away. Without a trace, Zhou Zilong's infantry became active at this time, and together with the phalanx, they slowly moved forward.

The two sides were in a stalemate. Li Mingjun's cavalry had an absolute advantage in mobility, but they had to worry about the supplies on the huge convoy and did not dare to stay away. However, Zhou Zilong could not take the initiative to attack the cavalry of up to 2,000 people. , just like this, the two sides moved one after another, separated by a distance of several miles, slowly moving in the direction of Pinggu.

Seeing his opponent following him relentlessly, Li Mingjun sneered and ignored him. He would wait until he had reunited with Guo Fu's thousands of soldiers to clean up these reckless things. If he hadn't grabbed enough things now, he would really have wanted to knock on Huining. Zhou Zilong pulled out the whole team. Huining is now as empty as ever, but now he doesn't have the intention. If he goes by himself If we fight against Huining, we will not be able to keep the looted things, and it is not a good idea to use cavalry to attack even a city that is not defended by regular troops.

But after seeing the situation of Guo Fu's troops, Li Mingjun's previous plans were like a ladle of cold water being poured from head to sole. Can they still fight in this state? Yesterday, the team that was full of energy and bravery in the wind and snow are now staggering, lying down or sitting on the snow. They are as bloated as they are, and they are as bloated as they are.

On one side, a dozen soldiers were waving whips and forcing some young men to dig a hole. Looking at the corpses of a dozen soldiers placed beside the hole, Li Mingjun's face darkened.

"What's going on?" He looked at Guo Fu who ran in front of him and asked with a stern face.

Guo Fu was also a little ashamed, "General, these unsatisfactory people actually pushed themselves to death. They ate too much and were in a hurry to go, so they died in vain."

Listening to Guo Fu's explanation, Li Mingjun really didn't know whether to laugh or feel bitter. There were actually people who were dying alive. However, this also reflected another grim reality from one aspect. The situation his troops were facing now was How unbearable, if he wasn't so hungry, how could this happen.

Guo Fu's eyes were attracted by the long motorcade that arrived with Li Mingjun, "The general still has vision and courage. If we don't fight at Changqiaoji, how can we achieve such a big gain?"

"There is also a hanging-boot ghost following behind. Zhou Zilong is just starting out, and after suffering such a big loss, he followed him reluctantly. If he didn't have to transport these supplies back to solve the urgent needs of the troops, I would really I want to go back and knock him out, and then hit Huining. This reckless thing actually pulled out all of Huining's team, and I am not afraid that Huining will be eaten by me. "

"Zhou Zilong is an army member of the Eastern Zhao Dynasty, but the county magistrate of Huining is an official of the Han Dynasty. They are not compatible with each other. He can do his own thing. General, do you want me to teach him a lesson? Such a ignorant junior can only I’m afraid I don’t even know how the battle is fought.”

"Can you soldiers still fight now?" Li Mingjun looked at Guo Fu's men with an ugly face. "Let them get up. Let's go. We can't stop for too long. If it gets dark, I don't know what will happen." Something unexpected happened. Zhou Zilong is probably waiting for darkness, and the power of our cavalry will be greatly reduced by then. "

"Yes, General." Guo Fu nodded, "This place is not far from us in Pinggu. Even at our current speed, it will only take an hour at most. I don't believe that Zhou Zilong would dare to follow Pinggu." go."

"Send someone back to inform several other troops and ask them to come out to respond. If Zhou Zilong really dares to follow, I won't mind eating him." Li Mingjun looked back at the misty wind and snow and said coldly. (To be continued.)
