Li Mu thought he was going to march for battle, but he didn't expect that it turned into a surrender ceremony. More than a thousand Huns cavalry hung out in front of the army for a long time, and then sent a waiter to walk to Huo Qubing and handed over his own
With scimitars, the rest of the Xiongnu dismounted, took off their armor, and then walked to the front of the Han army.
The majestic surrender scene made Li Mu enjoy watching it for the first time, but at this time he finally breathed a sigh of relief, while Sun Gouzi next to him kept boasting about the Battle of Hexi two years ago, General Huo
How he went straight into King Hunxie's enemy camp, killed the enemy and put down the chaos, and how he was rewarded and promoted to the rank of Cavalry General.
Li Mu was happy not to fight and his goal was one thousand people closer. He was also very interested in what Sun Gouzi said, and Sun Gouzi mostly talked about General Huo. Li Mu compared it with yesterday
It seems that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty vowed to drive out the Xiongnu, so he mobilized the whole country to attack them.
The two were chatting happily, and the order from above was passed down. The whole army immediately ate the morning meal, and three quarters later, they all set off to stop the enemy.
Li Mu roughly understood that this was about to send out troops to fight against the Xiongnu, and that they might face the main force. He immediately followed Sun Gouzi to prepare for the imperial meal.
But the next moment, Li Mu glanced at the surrendered Huns and found that the surrendered Huns were walking into the Han army. Some of them went to the escort camp behind, while others were directly collected by Gao Bushi, the subordinate of Huo Qubing.
, Li Mu couldn't even believe it when he saw the young Huns who had just surrendered take back their horses and weapons, then wrapped their braided hair with a red scarf, took a red cloth strip and tied it on their right arm and lower leg.
In an instant, he became a cavalryman of the Han army, sharing the same hatred with everyone.
Although Li Mu was far away and did not hear clearly what they said, the scene where these people turned into Han cavalry just after surrender really made Li Mu speechless.
When Huo Qubing started fighting, the number of people was still like a snowball?
Li Mu knew that Huo Qubing was brave and invincible, but he never knew that Huo Qubing was so capable that he could drive away the Huns to fight against them. Although they were a tribe of Huns and were restrained by prisoners from behind, they could be so bold in recruiting them.
Are you not worried about the other party rebelling on the battlefield?
What kind of control does this require?
Suddenly Li Mu thought of the immeasurable God of War strategy in the blue frame again, and couldn't help but feel a little incredible in his heart.
At this time, the sergeants who gave the order began to burn dried horse dung to make breakfast. Li Mu got two wheat cakes. While gnawing, he remembered that Wu San didn't know where he ate, so he took two wheat cakes and prepared them.
After going out to look for it, after walking around in a circle, Li Mu remembered his grandpa's general flag, raised his head and looked for it, and headed in the direction of the general flag.
When Li Mu got there, he found that the big tent had been dismantled and the flag was still standing on the stand. A group of generals were sitting on the grass outside, eating and talking about something.
Although he saw grandpa eating, Li Mu shouted out for some reason. Wu San turned around and saw it was Li Mu. He also said hello to those people and left with a bowl in his hand.
come over.
Li Mu was stopped by the garrison soldiers, and Wu San walked up to Li Mu and said, "Silly boy, what are you doing here? Go eat the morning meal quickly, and then set off with my grandfather."
Li Mu didn't say much, and handed over the two wheat cakes in his hands with a hum, but he saw Wu San holding a bowl in his hand. The bowl was a little gray, and it didn't look like the kumiss he drank yesterday.
"Grandpa, what's in your bowl?" Li Mu still asked. Wu San lowered his head, looked at it, handed it over and said, "Water, don't drink too much before going out for the battle."
Li Mu suddenly cursed in his heart that you guys drank kumiss during the morning meal yesterday, but when he poked his head over again, he saw that there were still tiny particles floating in the gray water, and he immediately asked with some worry: "Master, where did you get this water?"
"The soldier pretends to be cool from the pond outside."
"Is it boiling?"
"What to boil?" Wu San frowned, not understanding what Li Mu meant. The next second, the bowl in his hand was snatched away by Li Mu, and then he saw Li Mu pouring the water on the ground.
"You idiot, what are you doing?" Wu San looked at Li Mu's actions and thought he was here to cause trouble. He was a little surprised immediately, but he saw Li Mu's eyes suddenly staring at him.
"Grandpa, how can you drink this raw water? It's full of dirt. You'll definitely get sick and have a stomachache if you drink it!" Li Mu reprimanded loudly. Most of the water he drank in the past two days was from his pocket, but he still drank it. It is considered clear, but the sewage that was taken from unknown sources has not been boiled, so there will definitely be problems.
"Of course I know this. The water has already sunk. Besides, the Gonglu River is still two or three days away from us. How can we get so much clean water?"
"You can't drink it directly! It must be boiled!" Li Mu still said loudly, turning his head to see Huo Qubing and others looking over not far away. When he moved his eyes, Li Mu saw their hands There were bowls inside, and there was a big jar on the ground.
Li Mu was suddenly shocked. Are General Huo and others drinking raw water now?
Looking at Li Mu on the other side, Wu San suddenly pulled his shoulder. Wu San was about to say something to Li Mu, but suddenly he noticed a figure running past in front of him, and then Li Mu disappeared. The guards around him Suddenly giving a sharp shout, Wu San turned around, only to see that Li Mu had rushed in front of General Huo and the others.
"Li He!" Wu San shouted, his anger welling up at this moment. He attacked the camp without any reason and approached General Huo without permission. This is a crime of beheading!
Several guards immediately chased after him, but Yang Mu was already in front of General Huo at this time. Several generals sitting around drew their swords and looked at Li Mu, but Huo Qubing waved his hand and looked at Li Mu.
Li Mu and Huo Qubing looked at each other, but they first bent down and poured out the water in each person's bowl, and then poured out the water in the jar. At this time, the guard who caught up behind him also immediately poured out the water in Li Mu's bowl. He fell down in front of everyone.
Wu San also rushed over at this time, and immediately put his foot on the side of Li Mu's calf. Li Mu's face was painful, but he saw Wu San squat down, waved his left hand fiercely, and gave Li Mu another blow. He slapped her loudly and cursed Li Mu angrily at the same time.
"Do you know what you are doing? You are attacking the camp and you must be killed according to the law! Why don't you apologize to the general!"
"I didn't want to do anything to General Huo. General Huo, you can't drink raw water or other unclean things. Especially in the hot weather now, all kinds of bacteria are easy to breed. It will definitely have an impact on the army!"
Li Mu looked up at Huo Qubing and said, Logically speaking, the other party should have understood this common sense. At this time, Li Mu suddenly remembered something, that is, Huo Qubing died at a young age. Although he did not know the reason, but
Drinking raw water may be a hidden danger.
Today is the third time Li Mu has seen Huo Qubing, and he has always been grateful for his humble care. Li Mu did this out of anxiety.
When Wu San saw that Li Mu did not plead guilty as he said, and if the blame was placed on him, even the general's personal soldiers would not be able to save him, he immediately became furious and was about to call again, but was stopped by Huo Qubing.
"Wu Banner Officer, don't be angry. Li He is right. I don't blame him." Huo Qubing said extremely calmly for Li Mu's impulsive actions.
As soon as Huo Qubing's words came out, Wu San was convinced, but immediately he was full of anger and wanted to drag Li Mu out, but Huo Qubing stopped him again.
"Li He is right. When troops are marching, water is the most taboo. Whoever draws the water today will be punished." Huo Qubing asked Wu San to let go of his hand and said to the generals on the field. A soldier came out and faced Huo Qubing.
After cupping his hands, Huo Qubing waved his hand and said again.
"But the army is about to leave today, so we will punish you after we win the battle!" The soldier stepped back with a grateful look on his face, while Huo Qubing looked down at Li Mu who was kneeling on the ground, and immediately walked over and pulled Li Mu up.
"Li He, if you attack the camp today, you will be exempted from the death penalty, but you will still have to be punished. How about we wait until we return from the victory to settle the matter together?" Huo Qubing smiled and stared at Li Mu with a pair of bright eyes.
Li Mu nodded awkwardly, and Huo Qubing asked: "But Li He, do you know why we also drink this water? Because the water and kumiss in the army have been given to the captured people, and we are injured.
Soldiers, it’s not that we don’t want to drink clean water, it’s just that we don’t have it at the moment.”
"There is not so much horse manure for us to waste in the vast grassland, do you understand?" Huo Qubing said in a deep voice. Li Mu looked at him and realized that this was not an accident, but a helpless move.
Li Mu nodded, finally understanding what the other party meant, and he admitted his mistake with some shame. Huo Qubing patted Li Mu on the shoulder and asked Li Mu to go back and prepare as soon as possible.
When he walked out, Li Mu still heard Wu San's voice apologizing to Huo Qubing, but Li Mu heard the next sentence clearly.
"Master Wu, don't blame yourself. We can't let down Li He's good intentions. You are looking for a good son."
At this moment, Li Mu somewhat understood why the other party had such a strong personality...
