Chapter 662 Lonely
The Youyi team is still sneaking in the darkness.
According to the system of the Han army, the presence of double sentinels, light and dark, meant that there would be patrols patrolling within the two miles ahead, so Taishi Ci and others were more careful.
But something unexpected happened.
Suddenly, an unexpected voice came from the darkness:
"Which team are you on?"
Taishi Ci was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately and asked the Bingbei warriors in the team to speak out.
You Yi, who came from the home of a young samurai from Daidi, said calmly:
"We are from the front team and have just come here for inspection."
The person on the other side was silent for a while, and then suddenly asked:
"Frost and cold weather merge with Beijia."
Taishi Ci and others immediately realized that the patrol on the opposite side was responding to the bugle call. How could they know the night call?
So, Taishi Ci made a quick decision and swung the halberd in his hand towards the direction of the sound, followed immediately by a scream.
When other You Yi saw Tai Shi Ci taking action, they each threw their short-hand soldiers over and screamed again and again.
At this moment, the whereabouts could no longer be hidden, so Tai Shici and the others simply killed them with great fanfare.
These people were elites in the army, and they attacked the other side again. After a while, this patrol was killed by Taishi Ci.
Even in order to gain time, they did not have time to capture him.
Not caring about cleaning up, Tai Shici and others continued to run towards the south. If they want to find out the reality of Lu Bu's army, they have to capture a big shot. These karami are of no use.
As screams continued here, the nearby patrol team immediately got excited and ran over holding torches.
This time, Taishi Ci and the others met one head-on, but before they could ask, Taishi Ci shouted angrily:
"Frost and cold weather merge with Beijia."
The other person did not dare to hesitate and responded quickly:
"Report to the military king for his kindness to the whole family."
When they saw the right number on the other side, they quickly walked over with torches to ask about the situation, but when they illuminated the front, they were frightened because the "friendly troops" in front were holding crossbows and arrows, and the light was cold and cold.
Just as the general of the patrol was about to speak, a heavy rain of arrows hit him from the opposite side. In the blink of an eye, all of the patrol were killed by the arrows of Tai Shici and others.
In the previous wave, due to the suddenness, they had no time to pick up their bows and crossbows, so they could only throw the short soldiers in their hands. But this time, with sufficient preparation, I was able to calmly shoot with arrows.
The opposing team general did not understand why the friendly forces attacked him before he died.
Taishi Ci and others collected the heads of this group of people and continued to move forward.
After taking care of this group, the camp is close at hand.
By the time they arrived at the camp, due to the wailing outside, the entire front of the camp was already as bright as day, and the shouts of military officials at all levels were everywhere.
In fact, to this extent, Taishi Ci's mission of catching lives actually failed.
But who is Tai Shici? He was the one who dared to attack hundreds of Liaodong cavalrymen by riding alone.
Since there are no conditions, we must create conditions.
So Taishi Ci whispered to the Bingbei warrior beside him, and then the warrior shouted in the dialect of Shuofang:
"We bumped into the shacks in the mountains when they came out to look for food, and they were all chopped down."
After hearing this, the military officer upstairs felt relieved, and then cursed:
"Who among you doesn't know that you are most afraid of noise at night? If the camp roars, even if you are our old brother from Shuofang, you will die."
After saying this, the military officer left a sentence:
"If we don't open the door at night, you'll have to deal with it outside all night."
After saying that, I will go down.
The Bingbei warrior below heard this and was anxious. He was about to speak, but was held back by Tai Shici.
Just like that, as the military officials at Loumen left, although there were still many people gathered outside the camp, they were no longer as nervous as before.
After a while, Taishi Ci saw Sergeant Bingzhou warming himself around a campfire behind the fence, and thought of a way.
He whispered to a slovenly official inside:
"Brother, my head is very wet and cold at night. We have just finished killing people and are sweating. If it freezes again, something might happen. We have lost flint again. Can you please give us some firewood?"< br>
When the sloppy sergeant heard Tai Shici's accent, he raised his eyelids and replied:
"Brother, are you from Qingzhou? This is rare in our Shangdang area."
Taishi Ci didn't panic, he was actually prepared.
Just when the Loumen military officer was talking, he got the news keenly, that is, this man called the man who spoke "Shuofang dialect" an old brother. What does this mean?
This shows that there must be a large number of sergeants from non-Bingbei areas in Lu Bu's army. This phenomenon is not unexpected. According to the information Tai Shi Ci had obtained before, when Lu Bu broke out from Jiexiu that day, he brought at most about a thousand Bingzhou cavalry.
But looking at the size of this camp now, it is obvious that it cannot be used by a Bingzhou cavalry force, so Lu Bu must have recruited a large number of strong people in Tunliu.
This can also be verified from the side from the two previous patrols.
Although Tai Shici and his team had the advantage of sneak attacks, being annihilated so quickly also showed that these patrols were not strong.
The patrols at night were not elites, but they were also carefully selected, so the performance on the opposite side was not worthy of the strength of the frontier troops.
And sure enough, when the sloppy military officer replied, he was not speaking in Bingbei dialect, but in the plain dialect.
What a coincidence, I met a fellow villager. Now, Taishi Ci was confident.
He smiled and said:
"No, we and a few others originally chose big trees for the nobles. We heard that the big trees in Taihang are good, so we came to explore the way. When we went back, we wanted to avoid running empty, so we thought of going to the Dang side. Let’s see what we can bring back to sell. But who knew that when they met Zheng Fu, they not only turned us into soldiers, but also robbed our big car. ”
I don’t know which sentence spoke to the heart of the sloppy official, but I can see that the man’s heart is filled with sadness:
"Yes, in this world, it is really difficult for us little people."
Having said this, the sergeant knew that it would be hard not to help, but he took a quick look at the bloody heads and then stopped talking.
Taishi Ci had also been in the Han army, so how could he not understand what that man meant?
He pretended to be in trouble and whispered:
"We are just taking charge of our own team. We have five pills here. Quan is familiar with me, and I don't want to let my brother work in vain, so I will give two pills to my brothers."
Seeing how generous this man was, the sloppy sergeant nodded and retreated without saying anything.
After that, there was no movement for a long time.
You Yi is an elite, but You Yi is also divided into strong and weak, and those who can join the guard army as You Yi are all strong. Therefore, although there is no movement inside, there is no need for Tai Shici to give orders, and everyone behaves naturally.
At this time, there was a creak, and the closed camp door really opened.
Then I saw the sloppy military officer and a few people walking over with a pile of firewood, and heard the man chant:
"We are both from Qingzhou. It is fate that we can meet here. We should take care of each other."
When he walked up to Tai Shi Ci, he saw the person's size clearly and sighed:
"This is really good material for a soldier. No wonder we want to recruit him into the army?"
Just when Lao Jun was about to put down the firewood, a cold light was placed on his neck, and then he heard his fellow villager laugh:
"Fellow, I want to ask you a favor. Can I lend it to you?"
Lao Jun was smart and hurriedly replied: "Fellow, as long as we don't borrow people's heads, what we have is my brother's, no, it is all my brother's."
At this point, Taishi Ci and all the tourists looked at each other and smiled.
Look, isn’t this an opportunity?
……
When the front village was noisy, Wei Xugang was awakened by the guards.
Wei Xu's family, like Lu Bu's father, had been border soldiers for generations, so the two families got married.
In the border area, these warriors are a very special group. Because they guard the border wall all year round, the social relations of these people are very simple and closed.
Also because of the westward shift of the strategic focus of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty also ignored the northern frontier troops and could not supply military supplies all year round. This made most of the frontier troops very poor.
Since they are poor and have no way to advance, the daughters of good families are naturally unwilling to marry into these border army groups. These people can only marry each other.
This in turn makes these groups more closely related and closed.
In Lu Bu's army, almost every middle-level and lower-level military officer was related to him. It was precisely because of this internal relationship that Lu Bu was able to lead his team to break out from Jiexiu, otherwise they would be scattered on the road.
But while it brought cohesion to the army, it also made some parts of the Bingzhou army xenophobic.
Among Lu Bu's generals, Zhang Liao and Hao Meng were the most peripheral, because one of them was from Yanmen and the other from Hanoi, both from the mainland, and they were not from the same group as the backbone of Lu Bu's group.
So although Zhang Liao is a brave general in the army second only to Lu Bu, he can only command less than a hundred soldiers on a daily basis.
But what about Wei Xu? The number of soldiers alone exceeds a hundred, and they even command an army of 3,000 people on a daily basis.
Previously, when Lu Bu led his army to attack Zhao Yun in the north, Wei Xu was left behind.
Not long ago, Lu Bu returned victorious. Not only did he bring back a large amount of grain to distribute to the northern warriors, he also gave a separate batch to Wei as a reward for his steadfastness in staying behind.
Wei Xu was happy. Isn't this the best job to be able to enjoy the spoils of war without having to go to war? So I drank a little more tonight.
At this moment, he was still a little unhappy to be woken up by the soldiers.
But when he heard the noise in front of him, Wei Xu stopped cursing, and instead asked the guards to help him put on his armor, and then asked people to lift the big tent so that all the soldiers under the curtain could see him.
Wei Xu's ability to survive is not just due to nepotism, and Lu Bu is not a big shot. They are all a bunch of fighting men. The really mediocre people would have died on the battlefield long ago.
As a warrior who fought on the front line, he had put a lot of thought into the defense of the camp.
Generally speaking, the layout of the camp is mostly square camp. In fact, it is to build a square camp in the wild in the walled city, then the main force of the Chinese army is in the middle, and then the battalions are dispersed layer by layer.
However, the geography of the Tunliu area is complex and the land is too small to accommodate a camp, so Wei Xu was ingenious and built a plum blossom camp.
That is to say, each battalion was separated and established at a strategic location, and then military roads were expanded between each other to facilitate assistance. He led the Chinese soldiers in the center and relied on his troops to regulate the battalions.
So now the camp in front is starting to become noisy. Wei Xu thinks that it must not be a large enemy attack, because there are battalions defending on the important roads, and they are all equipped with beacon towers. Once the beacon is given an early warning, he will know it clearly.
And since it was a small group of enemy troops infiltrating, Wei Xu just had to suppress it.
Normally, there would be a circle of curtains surrounding his military tent. This could not only protect his traces, but also add to the general's majesty.
However, in order to show his calmness and general's style, Wei Xu had people lift all the curtains and set up torches to illuminate the central army's tent.
After Wei Xu's operation, the nearby Bingzhou veterans felt at ease, either continuing to sleep or getting up to clean their knives.
Soon, military officials from the front camp reported the situation. It turned out that a group of shantytowns were running down the mountain in search of food and were bumped into by the patrol. Only then did they rush to the front camp in surprise.
Feeling confident, Wei Xu sat upright for a while longer, but after all, he was so drunk that he couldn't hold on any longer. He ordered the guards not to disturb him again.
But just as Wei Xu was leaning on the wooden couch and squinting, someone else came to report from outside, and it was the doorman of the front building.
Wei Xu suppressed his anger without wearing any clothes and armor, and then turned out from behind the screen. After seeing the scene in front of him, his anger finally broke out. He pointed at the building gate official and cursed:
"Old Wei, don't think that you are like this because you are related to us? Let me tell you, our Bingzhou Army does not talk about this. Do you know what your crime is for leading these people to break into the Chinese army's tent at night? It is..."
Having said this, Wei Xu finally couldn't see anything was wrong. The relative with the same surname as him who was not far away turned pale, and the white-faced warrior next to him was smiling when he was talking. The situation Not good.
Wei Xu paused for a moment and started to speak again, but his footsteps suddenly rushed to the case, ready to draw his own sword.
This set of small combos that make a splash in the east and attack the west is still very smooth, but unfortunately it is not enough in Tai Shici's eyes. When Wei Xu moved, Taishi Ci sprinted forward, jumped up, and kicked Wei Xu on the chest.
Wei Xu fell onto the table. Not only did he smash the table, but he was also kicked a little.
But the Huanshou Sword on the table also fell into Wei Xu's hand. He tried to hold his breath to ease the pain, and then with the Huanshou Sword in his hand, he raised up and beheaded the white-faced warrior.
Taishi Ci was also shocked. Because of the perspective problem, he didn't see that Wei Xu had already obtained the knife. At this moment, others stepped forward to capture Wei Xu. At this moment, seeing the knife coming towards him, he could only lift the iron in his hand. Arm block.
With the sound of gold and iron mixed with a spark, Wei Xu's counterattack was finally blocked by Tai Shici.
Over there, the Gaobai warrior who came in with Tai Shi Ci saw Wei Xu's counterattack and immediately drew out his arrow and shot it.
What a good Wei Xu, at such a close distance, with his feet firmly planted on the ground, his waist lowered, and his upper body and head drawn in a circle, the general dodged the arrow.
The tall white warrior is called Yu Wen Po Tou, and he is the young commander of the Xianbei Yu Wen clan, and the current general of the side conflict, Yu Wen En.
Yu Wen'en had never seen someone who could dodge arrows like this, and was shocked by Wei Xu's bravery.
But Taishi Ci did not freeze. Instead, he seized the gap and rushed to Wei Xu's side with a low body. Then he wrapped his arms around his waist and pulled Wei Xu down to the ground.
When Taishi Ci got up, he saw Wei Xu lying on the ground with his eyes closed. He hurriedly stepped forward and touched his nose. His hands trembled and he cursed:
"Hot girl, are you going to die now?"
Yu Wen'en was also stunned for a moment, and quickly turned Wei Xu over, only to see that his head had been pulled down and he could no longer die.
Taishi Ci was a little angry and pointed at the stunned gatekeeper:
"If this person is gone, take this person away!"
After thinking about it, he ordered Yu Wenen:
"Even if this person dies, you can carry him with him. You can always get something out of him."
Yu Wen'en nodded, then picked up Wei Xu's body and carried it on his shoulders.
When Taishi Citi took the gatekeeper surnamed Wei out of the tent, the remaining You Yi came over.
Behind them, a group of Wei Xu's soldiers were wiped on their necks and thrown behind the curtain.
In the end, Taishi Ci couldn't get enough of it and said cruelly:
"Burn this place with fire."
Not long after Taishi Ci and others left the camp, the delayed fire line ignited the kerosene on the tent.
As a result, not only this camp area, but also other nearby places could see the flames rising into the sky.
At this time, You Yi and others had already gone away.
