Chapter 82: Those who come are thieves to be killed
Xiang Nan looked down at the white robe on his body.
The white robe was actually his inner garment. He was crushed under the corpses of his companions, and his uniform was burned by fire. He took off his uniform and escaped in embarrassment.
He kept running away, wondering if the rebels could not stop wherever he passed. He never thought about changing his clothes, and then he didn't want to change anymore.
The inner garment was spattered with blood, the blood of his companions, his own blood, and the blood of the rebels, a constant reminder of what he had experienced.
This is embarrassment, shame, and sadness.
Now of course he is not wearing an undergarment, but a white robe of fine quality. The soldiers who followed him at first were also wearing white robes because they had the same blood feud with their relatives and companions. Gradually, more and more people were wearing white robes.
many.
He didn't know why he kept wearing the white robe, and it became a routine for everyone.
Now the white robe has become a flag. The people see joy, the city officials see peace of mind, the soldiers and horses see envy, and the rebels see fear...
Xiang Nan looked at these two white-robed soldiers and knew what they meant without asking. Many soldiers and horses in Huazhou secretly wore white robes.
"As long as you dare to kill the enemy, you don't need to worry about what you wear." He said.
They were very happy to see that he did not blame them for pretending to be white-robed soldiers.
"You said there are Fan Yang soldiers nearby again?" Xiang Nan asked.
Only then did the two of them remember what had happened and rushed to tell what happened. Xiang Nan was also a little surprised.
"The direction they are going to is Surabaya." He told the soldiers beside him.
The soldier was from the local area and was very familiar with this place. He nodded and analyzed: "I haven't seen Fan Yangbing here for a few days. These dozen people appeared and ran away when they saw the white robes. They were obviously the rebels who used to be here."
."
Why did they come back?
"Escape is all about returning to the base camp." Another general said, "They must not be the only ones."
Xiang Nan looked in the direction of Surabaya: "Go and investigate."
Chen Er, who was standing aside, immediately responded and personally led the scouts away quickly. When dusk fell, he brought back news that shocked everyone.
Nearly ten thousand Fan Yang soldiers and horses were stationed near Surabaya.
The fort commander personally gave the carefully cooked broth to Xiang Nanduan who was sitting in the simple fort. His face turned green and the broth bowl almost fell to the ground.
Huazhou may not be finished. His fortress will definitely not be saved. Thousands of soldiers and horses will attack together...
The people standing in the narrow room were all white-robed army generals. Their expressions were either surprised or solemn, but not fearful.
"Did they just set up camp?" Xiang Nan calmly continued to ask for details, and he took the soup bowl that the fort commander was still holding in his hand.
Chen Er thought for a while and shook his head: "No, I can tell by looking at the horse manure that it has been at least five days."
"This is not like Fan Yangbing's style. It is enough to set up camp and rest for one or two days. The army has not entered Huazhou for five days. It can be seen..." Xiang Nan took a sip of the broth, "Their purpose
Not Huazhou.”
If it's not Huazhou, why are so many soldiers and horses gathered here? The generals looked at each other and whispered.
Xiang Nan took a few sips of the broth and put it down: "I'll go and see for myself."
.....
.....
The camp was not silent at night, and soldiers and horses came and went from time to time.
"During the day, the soldiers and horses kept galloping like this." Chen Er whispered and gave instructions to Xiang Nan who was lying on the ground. "After they went out, the soldiers and horses came back. It seemed like they were changing the guard."
But what precautions are there nearby?
"They are guarding Surabaya." Xiang Nan said, "Their goal is indeed not Huazhou."
But why are you guarding Surabaya? Where is it after crossing Surabaya? Yizhou! King Zhao! Xiang Nan was enlightened.
Leaving the scouts behind to keep an eye on the camp, Xiang Nan returned to the fort.
"General, you mean to say that Ankang Mountain is going to kill King Zhao." After hearing Xiang Nan's analysis, the generals said, "Are these soldiers going to Yizhou?"
"The emperor has passed away. Your Majesty still has three sons. The prince is in the capital, King Zhao is in Yizhou, and King Lu is in Linzhou." Xiang Nan said, "Ankang Mountain must be eradicated. These soldiers and horses are either going to Yizhou or attacking Yizhou soldiers.
Horse’s backup.”
The generals looked solemn: "General, what should we do?"
Xiang Nan gently stroked the white robe: "My white robe soldiers will kill the thief on the spot. Since the thief is here, of course he will be killed on the spot."
.....
.....
When the warning of enemy attack came, Sun Zhe didn't care.
The three layers of soldiers and horses outside the camp were strictly guarded in Surabaya, just to welcome the enemy attack.
"Xiao Xiao, who came for a sneak attack in the middle of the night." He said disdainfully as he lay on his back with his eyes closed.
But soon the news came that the first layer of soldiers and horses had been repulsed, followed by a description of the visitor.
"Sir, there are about seven thousand people, all wearing white robes." A general walked in quickly, "They should be the white-robed soldiers they are talking about."
Sun Zhe turned over and sat up: "There are a lot of people, and they are also very courageous. They dare to attack my camp. No wonder they can scare those guys away."
He said it was awesome, but there was no fear at all, only a bit of interest.
"Let me see what these people wearing sackcloth and mourning are doing."
Surrounded by a group of soldiers, Sun Zhe walked out of the camp in his nightgown. Standing on the tall chariot, he could see the fighting army formation in front of him. The fallen torches, burning military flags and withered grass were torn apart in the night.
, a piece of white robe contrasted with the light of the fire, as dazzling as freshly fired white porcelain.
"It's a very weird and funny outfit." Sun Zhe burst into laughter, but the smile on his face disappeared as he watched.
After rushing through the first layer of soldiers and horses, the vanguard cavalry had dispersed. The dazzling white robes were a military formation with an empty interior and an outer square. There were footsteps and the ground shook, constantly impacting the military formation on their side.
The cold light of weapons and the splash of flesh and blood.
Since leaving Fan Yang, this is the first time he has encountered such fierce Daxia soldiers and horses. Sun Zhe's face jumped. No wonder Tian Cheng asked the soldiers and horses to withdraw from Huazhou. If you really want to lose your vitality here, there is no way to grab it.
Great contribution to Yizhou.
but.....
"Don't pay attention to them. No matter how fierce they are, their numbers are small." Sun Zhe said, "If you can't fight, you will retreat."
He is not just a force, he knows that the most important task now is defense. Thousands of soldiers do not need to take the initiative to attack, but wait for these moths to fall into the trap.
The generals responded. Sun Zhe yawned and was about to turn around and go back to sleep. But at the moment he turned around, a white light flashed out of the corner of his eyes. It was a man in white robes leaping into the battle with a spear in hand, surrounded by five Fan Yangs.
The soldier was instantly picked up by the spear, and then fell heavily to the ground. The burning torches on the ground splashed everywhere, like fireworks blooming around the white horse and white robe.
He is the brightest place in the night sky and earth.
Sun Zhe saw his face, Sun Zhe's eyes lit up like stars, and he let out a howl.
"Xiang Nan! It's Xiang Nan! Xiang Nan!" he shouted, and he was about to jump off the elevated car.
Fortunately, the soldiers around him caught him in time and called "Sir" in confusion.
Sun Zhe did not explain to them. He just looked at the young white-robed generals who were fighting in the military formation and shouted: "Bring me a weapon and I will kill him with my own hands!"
This was too sudden. Where was the previous calmness and indifference? All the generals advised, "My lord, please don't put yourself in danger."
Sun Zhe didn't listen at all. The soldiers brought the cloak. Sun Zhe got on his horse and said, "Kill him, I want to kill him." He raised his knife and ordered, "Don't let him go tonight! Never let him go!"
"
He raised his sword and rushed on horseback, and the soldiers followed him to protect him.
The generals could only follow, and because Sun Zhe said not to let these white-robed soldiers go, they began to mobilize their troops.
The entire camp, including the soldiers and horses in the distance, began to surge, and the ground shook.
.....
.....
"Fan Yangbing's camp was raided?"
Li Minglou, who was wrapped in his robe and resting against a tree, woke up immediately and looked at the scout who was brought to him.
