After the battle, the two teams gathered together.
Everyone cleaned the battlefield and counted the casualties. Compared with the seriousness of the Yuzi Army, Zhang Fei and Gao Feibao's men were much more unrestrained. Like their commander, they were brave and fierce, and eager to win. Because of the similar natures, the two teams
We also have the best relationship with them, so we will cooperate this time.
"General, the enemy army has been defeated and a batch of baggage and supplies of food and grass have been captured. What do you two generals want to do with it?"
"What else can I do? Take everything you can use with you and burn everything you can't take away. Don't leave it to others after burning it."
"yes!"
The men immediately began to take action, and soon the fire was raging into the sky.
Gao Feibao stared at the raging fire and said, "Third Master, should we go to the next place?"
"No need to leave." Zhang Fei said: "If something happens here, the news will definitely spread. We will stay here and fight their reinforcements."
At night on the grassland, there are not only hunting beasts and carrion-eating jackals out in action, but also an individual.
The five teams of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Gao Feibao, Qin Man, and Zhao Zilong all started their own actions. Sometimes they fought together, sometimes they separated and fought independently. The Five Route Army swept across the grassland in five lines. Once they encountered the enemy, they were like finding prey.
It pounces on it like a wild beast. When it encounters a huge number of enemies, it eats them up bit by bit.
…
In the big tent, Cui Xiang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. As battle reports were presented to him one after another, his face became even more ugly.
Three days ago, Xu Longtian's troops in Qingzhou were defeated. More than 3,000 people in the team were killed and wounded, and the remaining troops fled back without their helmets and armor.
Two days ago, the Prime Minister's grain transport team was ambushed by the enemy, and all the grain and grass were burned to the ground.
Yesterday, the enemy troops captured Huangsha City, and the defenders suffered heavy casualties.
…
This all happened within the past two or three days. Once something happened, it was handed over to Prime Minister Cui's case as soon as possible. Now there have been more than a dozen letters accumulated, all of which are news of defeat.
Those who were defeated were not only the troops of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but also the General's Mansion, Yangzhou Li Xing's troops, and other princes. As long as they dared to leave alone on the grassland and received news from them, their entire army would be wiped out.
Five teams, like five hungry wolves, swept across the grassland, no one could defeat them.
"What do they want to do, what do they want to do!" Even with Cui Xiang's self-cultivation, he was furious at this moment: "Are the Imperial Army just a bunch of wine sacks and rice sacks? Even a bunch of pigs know how to grunt, they are not even as good as pigs.
.”
Li Xingzai was sitting behind the handsome case. Compared to Cui Xiang's anger, he acted very calmly. Sitting there, he felt at ease. When Cui Xiang banged the table, he picked up the teacup.
Cui Xiang noticed him and suppressed the anger in his heart: "Your Highness Sixth..."
"Ah..." Li Xingzai seemed to have just come back to his senses, opened his eyes and said: "Xiang Cui, calm down your anger. Calm down your anger. You must know that anger can harm your body. Now that the three armies are tied to you alone, you still have to take care of your body."
"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, what do you think of this matter?"
"Ha, in my opinion, Prime Minister Cui shouldn't blame the imperial army for being incompetent. The enemy is really too cunning." Li Xingzai took a sip of tea.
"His Highness once lived in Toad City. He knows their way of doing things very well and can definitely see many things that we can't see. Do you still want to ask His Highness for advice?"
"Well, I'm just talking casually, and it may not be right." Li Xingzai said: "In these battles in which the imperial army was defeated, all those involved were logistics teams, and the main army of the empire did not participate in the battle. The Toad Army used them
It has high mobility. If you can defeat it, attack it. If you cannot defeat it, harass it. Wait for the team to close up before attacking in one fell swoop and defeat us."
"In other words, the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army may not be weaker than that of the Toad Army?" Cui Xiang asked.
Li Xingzai nodded and shook his head: "Of course I can't say that completely. I have been with Cheng Dalei for more than three years, and he has not been idle for a day in these three years. A sword has been sharpened for three years, and now it is unsheathed for the first time.
Naturally sharp and tight.”
"It makes sense." Cui Xiang nodded slowly: "Then according to His Highness, what are they planning to do?"
In addition to being angry at the incompetence of the imperial army, Prime Minister Cui is also confused by this. The toad army swept across the grassland, burned the food they grabbed, and seemed to have no interest in the city. At present, they have only occupied one city in Huangsha City.
That's all.
"It's very simple. If Lin Shaoyu is dead, he will naturally do something." Li Xingzai.
"You mean, he doesn't care about the cost or the casualties..." Cui Xiang paused: "This is just a simple act of revenge."
Li Xingzai nodded heavily.
…
Huangsha City is an abandoned city. Due to the war, the place has been empty of ten houses. Originally, it was occupied by Yangzhou Li Xing's tribe, but not long ago, Cheng Dalei captured it.
As these days continued, battle reports continued to come in, mostly news of victory. In a certain place, a certain unit was annihilated, how many enemies were killed, and something was captured.
Most of the supplies were transported back to Huangsha City to support the war. Huangsha City became Cheng Dalei's base camp. However, there were not many soldiers stationed in Huangsha City. Most of the men were still on the grassland to continue the revenge operation.
"Master..." One of his subordinates reported: "General Gao is back from Qingniu Mountain."
In the valley of Qingniu Mountain, there is a batch of treasures of the Rong people. This treasure has been hidden for a long time. This time it happened to be near Qingniu Mountain, so Cheng Dalei sent Gao Feihu to take it out.
He, Liu Bei, and Xu Shenji came to the military camp together, and Gao Feihu's men were resting. As soon as he saw Cheng Dalei coming, Gao Feihu immediately cried out: "Master, there is nothing you mentioned there."
"It shouldn't be." Cheng Dalei wondered in his mind whether this was an accident.
"Master, when we went there, we found traces of digging in the valley. The treasure you mentioned was probably dug up by others."
"Someone else..." Cheng Dalei frowned: "Who else could it be?"
Cheng Dalei couldn't guess who intercepted him halfway and took away the treasure that was supposed to be his. However, Cheng Dalei couldn't guess this, so he could only suppress the confusion in his heart for the time being.
"Just come back. Let's take a rest first. We have other things to do later." Cheng Dalei.
Gao Feihu didn't show any sign of being tired, and said: "Master, I heard it just after I came back. The fighting has been very lively these days."
"Yes, the fight was very lively." Cheng Dalei sighed softly.
In a short period of time, the toad army swept across the grassland, and for a while there was a roar. That hideous and ugly body has now become the most terrifying symbol on the grassland.
