One month later, all the troops deployed at Shahan Pass had withdrawn into the pass, and this retreat also meant that the first "test sword" of Wansu Camp failed.
What an incomparable irony and a huge joke - the elite cavalry unit Wansou Camp, which was painstakingly established by the Tianlang Army, the ace force in the northwest region of Sheng Kingdom, had already surrendered before it even came into close contact with the enemy.
In fact, the tens of thousands of people on the front line of Shahanguan Pass only lost less than 2,000, which was far from the extent of the entire army retreating. The main reason why the Hussars made this decision was that before the Haogao people's rangers harassed them,
One day, the partial division at Fenghan Pass was blocked by the Xie Gao people with all their strength. Faced with the main attack of the Xie Gao people, the partial division was almost completely wiped out, with only a few hundred people surviving.
Only one-tenth of the thousands-strong team survived, and a perfect annihilation battle was fought within ten days. Almost all the official positions of the Sirius Army were wiped out from high to low, and even the hussars were
The general himself was not exempt from the blame. Although he was not demoted, he still paid his own salary as military pay to comfort the souls of the soldiers.
At this time, these military commanders who showed off their power and commanded the country realized that they had been too hasty, and because of their eagerness for quick success and instant benefit, they ruined the lives of nearly 10,000 recruits.
Shahan Pass.
"I don't understand. Were they always so worried about the war before?" Wei Kui and others were gathering in a small restaurant in the pass to drink. He kept complaining, obviously about retreating without a fight.
He is still worried about it. "What the hell is there to run away from? If you just get harassed and retreat, then why fight in the future? If you see the enemy, just surrender the city!"
Du Rong looked at the surrounding environment, lowered his voice and persuaded: "I heard that it was not because of our side that we retreated -"
"It seems that the main force of the Haogao people was encountered over at Fenghan Pass. They made dumplings for them and the whole army was wiped out!" Another person interjected.
"Damn it, aren't we the main force?" He didn't say it was okay, but when he mentioned Wei Kui, he became even more angry, "The tens of thousands of us here were defeated by hundreds of others and four camps were defeated. We were so frightened that we retreated three times in a row.
Shili - How can there be such an outrageous thing in the world?"
"And what about the Lao Shizi Wansu Camp..." Wei Kui grinned, "Didn't you say cavalry? Didn't you say elite? They took the lead in retreating without even letting go of a single thing?"
Wei Kui's voice was so loud that as soon as he said this, he was heard by the people at the nearby table. Those people were working in Wansu Camp. When Wei Kui said this, he immediately stood up and came closer: "Hey
,Hey, what the hell did you say?"
"What? Is what I said wrong?" Wei Kui was not afraid when he saw those people approaching, and even picked his nose and ears pretending to be disdainful, "I don't see you rushing in front during the battle, but you can show your strength when retreating."
You rode your horse very fast."
"Let me ask you, have you seen the hair of the Haogao people this time? Grandpas have killed several of them." This is indeed true. The cavalry of the Wansu Camp have never seen it this time.
The Xiegao people, and Wei Kuie and others blocked two squadrons of the Xiegao people. Although Wei Kuie did not kill the enemy with his own hands, he did not contribute much. In the beginning, it was all about him dragging the opponent.
.
Wei Kui and Du Rong have been together for such a long time, and they are quite good at talking. Several people from the Ten Thousand Sou Battalion were also stabbed by Wei Kui, whose faces turned blue and white. They could only say hesitantly: "Then what?
It’s not that we want to retreat. What can we do according to the orders from above..."
One of them, who was also a talkative master, said: "We are all brothers of the Sirius Army. We have been through life and death together. Are your words a bit hurtful?"
This time it was not Wei Kui's turn to speak, and Du Rong was not happy either: "From birth to death? I think it was you who were born, and we went to death, right? When our infantry battalion was shedding blood at the front, we didn't see you coming to join us.
We have gone through life and death together, and now that we are home and safe, we are still talking about the same thing."
"you……"
"What are you doing? Otherwise we'll have a fight and no one will tell anyone." Du Rong had a toothpick in his hand and was picking his teeth.
The people on the other side were happy when they heard this. They were all elites in the Wansou camp. The last thing they were afraid of was fighting. Now that the other side took the initiative to bring it up, it was right in their heart.
"The guests... If they want to fight, let's go out and fight." The owner of the small restaurant said with a smile. He also heard that the two groups of soldiers were about to fight, and he was afraid that a lot of things would be broken. "Our small business...
…”
"Easy to say." Everyone on both sides nodded. No one wanted to break something and cause trouble for themselves.
Since Wan Suying had a higher status, he naturally went out first. But just when the last person was about to step out of the threshold, something unexpected happened. Du Rong actually grabbed an iron basin and hit that person on the back of the head.
The man was in great pain and staggered.
"What are you doing!" All the people waiting for Du Rong and others to go out were shocked.
"Nonsense! Let's fight!" Du Rong shouted at the top of his lungs, and more than a dozen of Wei Kui and others rushed out, catching the opponent off guard.
It didn't take long for the two sides to decide the winner. Du Rong and the others had twice the number of opponents, and with the first attack, they naturally won easily. Wei Kui dragged one with one hand and threw it into the middle of the crowd.
"Remember, don't snitch."
The few people helped each other stand up, looked at each other bitterly, and then made signs to leave.
"Hey..." Du Rong called them again, "I haven't paid for the meal yet!"
One of them was just about to go back to the small restaurant to pay, when he was stopped by the leader among them. The leader took out a silver coin from his arms and threw it over. Du Rong reached out to catch it, and heard the other person hum: "
This time we failed, we admit defeat."
Du Rong bit the silver with his teeth to test its quality, and then asked: "How about leaving a name for a good man?" The man raised his hand and said, "Fang Sheng."
When they saw each other leaving, they didn't take it seriously and went back to the restaurant to continue eating and drinking. Wei Kui asked as if he suddenly remembered something: "Brother Du, what profession did you work in before? Let me see your martial arts skills."
…”
As soon as Wei Kui mentioned Du Rong, everyone became excited. These days, they have seen everything about Du Rong. At first, they only thought that he was just a talker, but from the night when the Haogao people invaded,
Only then did they realize that the top master in the small gang was not Wei Kui or Li Dayong, but this secretive big brother.
Du Rong originally smiled dryly and wanted to skip this topic, but he was pestered by everyone and wanted to hear him tell the story, so he cleared his throat and started narrating.
Du Rong was originally from Fenlang County in the central region of Sheng Kingdom. His family was well-off and he started practicing martial arts at a young age. However, when he grew up, his family fell into decline. In order to avoid disaster, he moved his family to Wuyin County in the west. After arriving in Wuyin County, he
I worked as a bodyguard in a bodyguard agency. Over the years, I worked my way up to become the third in charge and deputy chief bodyguard of that bodyguard agency. Unfortunately, my fate was ill-fated. In an accident, the bodyguard agency was wiped out and almost the whole army was wiped out.
He died on the spot, and the remaining few people dispersed. Finally, they had no choice but to join the army.
"Brother Du... your journey has been very bumpy." Wei Kui sighed.
"Isn't Brother Du married?" Li Dayong asked. He expected that Brother Du, who was nearly forty years old, should have a family, so why did he choose to join the army?
Du Rong touched his chin, "When I was young, I had a sweetheart in my hometown. Unfortunately, I moved to Wuyin County and lost contact with her. She must have been married a long time ago."
Good friends? Wei Kui is not interested in things between men and women, but he feels the same way about this separation of life and death - but Lu Ning and he are not good friends either.
"Don't think so, Brother Du, what if your sweetheart gave birth to a son for you, wouldn't you also have a wife?" Ma Liuzi interjected.
Upon hearing this, Du Rong laughed suddenly and his face returned to normal, "If this is true, then my son should be almost as old as you." After saying this, he was silent for a while, as if he was really serious.
I wonder if I might actually have a son.
"She can be regarded as the daughter of a wealthy family... Marrying someone with a child, it's so embarrassing to say that it's probably not possible." Not long after, Du Rong suddenly whispered. I don't know if he was saying it to everyone, or to comfort him.
Listen to yourself.
Seeing Du Rong's expression darken again, Ma Liuzi quickly changed the subject: "Brother Du, you are so powerful, so don't hide your clumsiness from the others. Why don't you give us more pointers on our martial arts, so that we can have a better chance on the battlefield?"
A means to save one’s life.”
"You guys..." Du Rong's face was like the weather, and he changed quickly. When he talked about martial arts, he became more interested. "Da Yong's skills are pretty good, but his personality is too face-to-face."
You are soft and don't like fighting with others, and you don't dare to kill when fighting - otherwise you won't be able to lose to that Wang Chi." Li Dayong is certainly not a coward, and he was when Wei Kui wanted to save people alone.
The first one to echo Du Rong's "personality is too soft-spoken" refers to his easy-going personality and not being aggressive with others. In the previous competition with Wang Chi, he was also exposed because of Wang Chi's deliberate behavior.
He was hit hard, but he hesitated a little, and Wang Chi seized the opportunity to defeat him.
"Where's Xiao Wei Cheng... You are bold and ambitious. You and Dayong have the opposite personalities - he is too soft and you are too ruthless. If you are really willing to work hard and practice martial arts, you can achieve something. That's you.
He is too old, but he still has time." Of course Wei Cheng is a courageous person. Without Wei Kui, he dared to organize a group of villagers to fight the bandits. Du Rong's evaluation of him was also very fair.
"Ma Liuzi... Although you are thin and weak, you have a sharp eye. If you listen to me, you will first develop a good pair of legs. I will be fine if I can protect you. If I can't protect you, you will be fine."
Well, it's no use that you are no more capable than me... If you develop a pair of good legs, at least you will have no problem escaping." Before he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter, and Ma Liuzi also said with a smile, "Then I wish I could
If I don’t train my legs, I’ll let you cover me all the time, big brother.”
"There are only a few of you left. If you really want to learn, just follow me. I dare not say anything else. I guarantee that you will be able to hang Wang Chi up and beat him in the future." There were only a few recruits who could fight with Wang Chi in the past.
People, everyone was satisfied when they heard that they could surpass Wang Chi's level in the future.
"Where's Brother Wei Kui?" After so many mentions, Wei Kui was not mentioned. Wei Kui himself was a little curious. Before he could speak, Wei Chengcheng had already rushed to ask: "Brother Wei Kui is already better than that Wang Chi."
Isn’t it awesome?”
Du Rong clicked his tongue and stared at Wei Kui for a long time before saying: "You boy... I can't tell how successful you will be in martial arts in the future, but sooner or later, you will be better than me."
Come in big."
"I don't know who will be qualified to teach you martial arts and be your master in the future, but when I met you when you didn't know anything about martial arts now, I got a big advantage - I could put my name with theirs.
Juxtaposed.”
After Wei Kui heard this heartfelt praise, he slightly raised his eyelids and corners of his mouth: "Oh, awesome."
