Chapter 188: A Beat (1)
War is the winner dancing on the ruins of the loser.
Fires all over the mountains, weeping villages, hungry lambs.
The Ming soldiers with grim smile were tied up with a woman...
The Ming army crossed Gaoliang Gongshan and caught the rebel barbarian chieftain off guard. In panic, they lost two lines of defense in a row.
They once thought that this place would become a Shura field for the Ming army, but they did not know that in a short period of time, it would become a holy place for the Ming army to revel.
Moreover, the carnival has just begun, and the bloody wolf pack will continue to start their killing feast.
The bonfire was beating ragingly, reflecting bloodthirsty faces.
War will also reveal the most brutal side of everyone's heart.
The wounded soldiers didn't even care about the wounds. After reporting their merits to the officer with their last patience, they got into the prisoners and chose with red eyes. Several times, the brothers who were so happy that they wore pairs of pants fell in love with one person at the same time, and then they scolded each other and fists and feet. Some even took out weapons and wanted blood to splatter on the spot.
The officers tried their best to suppress it and suppress it with military law.
Then, a short while, in the remote corner, there were military tents, and a woman's screams and a man's unrestrained laughter.
As for those who were not in their turn, they gritted their teeth and sat beside the fire, rubbing the knife and cursed fiercely.
Then he looked at the mountains with faint fire, his eyes full of desire.
There was the base camp of several barbarian chieftains who rebelled against the Ming Dynasty.
There are tens of thousands of people over there...
~~
The noise of the camp seemed to have nothing to do with Lan Yu.
He sat on the stool, rubbed his waist knife with dry linen, and then applied oil layer on the chain mail.
His movements were slow, organized, and gentle, as if the weapons in his hand were not dead objects, but his beloved person.
After everything was ready, he stood up and put on a knife, picked up the kettle hanging on the charcoal fire, and filled his water bag.
"Remember, tell the men!" Lan Yu ordered to the personal soldiers standing at the door, "All the water in the camp should be boiled before drinking. Also, we must check the water source to be collected, so don't let the barbarian poison his mother privately!"
"Here!" the personal soldier responded loudly, his eyes that had been fighting for the rest of his life were particularly cold.
At this time, the cheerful Zhu Gaoxu strode in from outside.
In the battle between Jinghan Village, he personally killed three barbarians, one of whom was a small chieftain.
This made him suddenly feel that it was not that difficult to deal with these barbarians.
"Ship Lan, you are always..." After entering the military tent, Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly asked.
"Purchase the camp!" Lan Yu said two words lightly.
"At this time?" Zhu Gaoxu smiled, "We just won the battle..."
"We just have a good start, the battle has not been finished yet!" Lan Yu tied the copper buckle with his belt tightly, "The main tribe of the barbarians on the opposite mountain is still there." As he said, he raised his head and left the tent.
"But?" Zhu Gaoxu was stunned and quickly followed, "But now they are all scared..."
"The Manzi Tusi told you that he was scared?" Lan Yu suddenly stopped, his eyes making people creepy.
Zhu Gaoxu did not dare to look up, nor did he dare to look at each other.
"How did I teach you the old man before?" Lan Yu continued, "The soldiers can be happy, but the generals should always be alert. Do you think we can be unscrupulous if we have the advantage now? Haha, the barbarian chieftain wants us to think so!"
"Once we really think so, we will feel relieved. Between these mountains and ridges, the barbarians are elusive. With just one sneak attack, they can turn the situation around! We won once but it is not considered a victory, but if we lose once, it will be extremely difficult to regroup!"
"Do you think we can continue to win once we win? Boy, I tell you, fighting for tenacity is the only way to win in a short time. The two armies fight against each other, who has fewer mistakes and more food and supplies!"
"Along with the matter of taking shortcuts, we can use them, and the enemy will also use them. Think about it, how many examples of winning first and losing? Not to mention anything else, how did the Zhongshan King Xu Tiande eat that defeat against Wang Baobao?"
As he said that, he ignored Zhu Gaoxu and, with more than a hundred personal soldiers, began patrolling along the periphery of the camp.
Zhu Gaoxu followed silently. Lan Yu's words made him feel a little ashamed. He understood the principle of not being arrogant and not being discouraged in victory, but sometimes it was difficult to do it.
But he still had many questions in his mind. It was not until the group of people patrolled the camp far away that he asked, "Ship Lan, since you are worried about the enemy's sneak attack, why do you still let the brothers in the camp..."
"I just finished killing people, so I don't let them be happy, I feel sick!" Lan Yu looked at the mountains in the distance and whispered, "Besides, old man, I wish the men would be more happy as they make."
Now, Zhu Gaoxu didn't understand anymore, because Lan Yu's words were very contradictory.
"The more we make a fuss, the better time is the barbarians on the opposite mountain attack!" Lan Yu sneered on her face, "Hehe, if they can't think about it, they want to come at this time..." As she said that, she suddenly whistled.
Zhu Gaoxu's afterwards caught a glimpse of the light, and several figures lurking in the night appeared indifferently in the mountains and forests.
These people are all veterans who followed Lan Yu all the way.
Their steps were slow, but their eyes were so shivery bright.
"Master, there is no movement!" said a veteran, "After half a night of wind, no barbarian saw him!"
"That's probably not coming!" Lan Yu whispered, then turned to look at the deputy general Zhai Neng behind him, "Where is Mr. Mu?"
"Two hours ago, I took people to the front to investigate the enemy situation. I guess I'm coming back soon!" Zhai Neng is also a powerful general, but when facing Lan Yu, he looked tough, and he spoke quietly, "It is reported that there are no less than 100,000 barbarians in Kongtong Village opposite."
Zhu Gaoxu was startled, "So much?"
"Then why do we have to dispatch tens of thousands of soldiers?" Lan Yu glanced at him, then looked at the mountains in the distance, "The barbarians are good hunters, both men, women, young and old, and they are aggressive. Kongtong Village occupies a high place and the fortress is everywhere. If we really fight, we will also have to fill it with human lives!"
Zhu Gaoxu pondered for a moment and said hesitantly, "The leader among the chieftains on the barbarian side is Dao Menggan? Since he dares to rebel against the Ming Dynasty, he must have some tricks. But he has so many people in his hands, but he is huddling. Is it really just to waste us?"
Lan Yu nodded in approval, "You are good now, I know I'm thinking deeper!"
As he said that, pointing to the undulating mountains in the night, he continued, "He is indeed experiencing our army to spread out and attack the mountains, so that our army will be scattered. When we are exhausted, we will organize surprise troops to win."
Although this land belongs to the Ming Dynasty in name, it has been in the hands of the chieftains for thousands of years. Now that the Ming army is fighting here, it is equivalent to going deep into the enemy's territory.
The opponent is ready to fight, and he can retreat slowly if he loses.
Once the Ming army is defeated, cut off in half or raids the Central Army camp, it will be a great defeat.
Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu took a breath of air conditioning.
If the Ming army is really defeated, then there will be countless barbarians hiding in the mountains and forests, and they will pounce on them and bite them...
"There is another possibility!" Lan Yu said, "He is waiting!"
"What are you waiting for?" Zhu Gaoxu asked subconsciously.
