Chapter 33 From the seventh rank to the captain of Yihui
"boom"
The bandit cavalry crashed into the spear formation.
The galloping horses were like destroying the dead, and the pikemen in the front row were directly knocked down and trampled to death under the iron hoofs.
The blind man at the city gate was so angry that he waved the knife in his hand and struggled despite the medical officer's scolding.
"Let me go, I'm going to kill the enemy, and I'll have someone to support me even if I die."
"Huh?"
The blind man struggled twice and then froze in shock. Looking at the military formation not far away, he didn't even know that the knife in his hand had fallen.
The pikemen who originally formed the square formation were divided at the first touch, and within the extreme time gained by the first row of pikemen, they quickly decomposed into a crab formation.
The front row of the originally invincible horse team was instantly nailed to the ground. The blood-spouting horses rolled over several times before falling to the ground with a scream.
The momentum of the bandit cavalry's attack has been stopped. The horses neighed, and more than a dozen horses were nailed to the ground with spears, forming a block, which brought the bandit cavalry's charging momentum to an abrupt halt.
Dozens of horses circled around the horses nailed to the ground to attack the phalanx of spears guarding the dead horses.
"Change formation, press forward from the left wing."
"Retreat from the middle, don't let them push down the dead horse, kill."
Su Lu issued military orders in an orderly manner. The long sword in his hand never had a chance to be used.
The bandits in Erlong Mountain are quite powerful, but compared with Tulefuli, they are much inferior. In one encounter, fifteen people in the front row of the guard died. The bandits were nailed to death and trampled to death by horse hooves.
There are twelve in total.
Immediately afterwards, fourteen war horses fell, and the guards stopped the bandits' charge, only losing two people this time.
Bald Xie was about to cry. After two charges, he lost more than thirty of his men. On the other hand, only seventeen of his men were killed, and there was one who was not completely dead. He was pulled into the bushes for treatment by the medical officer.
.
Only then did Li Guozhi recognize Su Lu, who was commanding him, and knew that he was meeting the guard general who almost captured him alive in Taohua Mountain that day.
He was already very powerful in commanding the changes in the military formation that day, but today it feels like he is even more powerful. Even the cavalry charge could not break through his seemingly thin spear formation.
"withdraw"
Li Guozhi roared, turned his horse and left. When there was another charge, Li Guozhi felt that he would be left behind, so he left without hesitation.
Xie Tuzi was shocked. Li Guozhi's grandson was a liar. He had already started to rush into the battle, but he actually ran away. He just ran away, and he actually wanted to lead everyone away.
This shakes the morale of the military!
It's over this time!
The military formation commanded by the guard general opposite has changed so drastically, how could he not seize such an opportunity?
"Two wings move forward, charge into formation."
Sure enough, Xie Tuzi heard the military order issued by the other party, and saw that the guards who were originally just defending the dead horse suddenly bypassed the dead horse and rushed towards him.
If your subordinates die, I will not die.
Baldy Xie turned the horse's head without hesitation, patted the horse and left. Whether the brothers he brought out this time can go back depends on whether you are clever enough.
At the gate of the city, the blind man bent down and picked up his knife, his face full of shock and disbelief.
How could it be like this? The bandit cavalry who killed their own guards like melons and vegetables were chopped up like melons and vegetables when faced with Su Lu's city patrol camp. Their situation was completely changed.
They are just a patrol camp! And they are a newly formed patrol camp!
It turns out that the entire Nanguan Camp in Beiyang was taken away by the Beizheng Camp, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled.
Are these people really old, weak, sick and disabled? Looking at the bandit cavalry opposite them, they are old, weak, sick and disabled. They can't escape, they can't fight, they can't beat them, they are so depressed that they are dying.
By the way, I was mocking him just now, saying that he risked the lives of his guardsmen to die. What the hell, compared with others, I was the executioner who massacred his fellow guardsmen.
Five hundred brothers were attacked twice by hundreds of Erlongshan bandits and slaughtered completely. If it weren't for the help of my brothers, I would have confessed.
Let's look at Su Lu, who led a team of more than fifty spearmen and dared to confront a cavalry of hundreds of bandits, and could win the battle. This is a qualified general.
Su Lu looked at the bandit cavalry retreating in the distance and thought to himself that it was very dangerous.
Thanks to the combined attack effects of the Crab Formation and the Spear Formation, plus the fact that Su Ping, Fatty Zhao and the others had level 2 soldiers stuck in key positions, they were able to block the attack of these bandits.
We must hurry up and expand the army. If there is a battalion, so many brothers will not die this time, and all these grandchildren can be left behind.
Li Kun came over with two guards and supported Su Lu with a nervous voice.
"Second brother, are you okay?"
Su Lu shook his head:
"Select out all the young and strong people among the refugees, clean the battlefield, bury the corpses of bandits, collect the corpses of the dead brothers, register them, and provide them with compensation, so that we can't let the brothers' families feel cold anymore.
In the next few days, Li Kun and Su Ping selected all the young men according to Su Lu's arrangements. After cleaning the battlefield, they started training in the morning and dug ditches and cleaned up garbage in the afternoon.
After half a month, the identities of all the refugees were screened. Except for the spy discovered by Su Lu, no new spies were found.
The training of Xiangyong was almost complete. Li Kun and Su Ping began to select Xiangyong with different qualities to enter the city patrol camp. According to Su Lu, they were also assigned to different teams or groups.
On this day, Su Lu was on the school grounds, and two battalions that were already full in the audience were training their formations. Mudba rushed in like flying from the door of the barracks, shouting loudly.
"Sir, the merit-reporting documents from the Xuanfu Jiedu Palace have arrived, and Li Canjun personally sent you your official credentials and clothes."
The school ground was quiet for a moment, and then suddenly there was a huge cheer. After several bandits were suppressed, everyone was more or less beheaded, and everyone was basically able to get a medal.
Li Lin, who was wearing a crimson robe, strode in, holding official certificates and official documents in his hands. Behind Li Lin, there were several guardsmen who also held official documents. The cart behind was full of people.
Official robe.
"Under the command of General Huaihua, Su Lu, the commander of Guoyi's patrol camp in Beiyang, was granted the title."
Li Lin raised Su Lu's official robe high and spoke in a high voice.
"Su Lu was young and promising, and he commanded operations well. He killed countless bandits in Taohua Mountain and Yiniugou. He also discovered traitors in Dongtang Camp and won the gold medal of Thule Auxiliary. He has made outstanding achievements."
"Here, Su Lu, who is in the seventh rank of the Jin Dynasty, is the captain of Yihui, and will be rewarded with a million yuan."
Su Lu was a little irritated. This was wrong. The Xuanfu didn't mention anything about recruiting soldiers, not even a word about food, grass, clothing, armor, and weapons. Just promoting himself to an honorary title didn't seem to be of much use.
After finishing the reward, Li Lin said politely to Su Lu: "Captain Su, you are very good at fighting. As a blind man, everyone in Jiedu Mansion has his eyes higher than his head. I didn't expect that he would be convinced by you."
With the new official robe and certificate in hand, Su Lu asked Li Lin:
"What's going on at Dongtang Camp? Has Jiang Changfu been caught? And my recruitment of sergeants and the expansion of B Camp, why is it not mentioned in the official document of Jiedu Mansion?"
Li Lin smiled bitterly and lowered his voice:
"The case in the Dongtang camp has been confirmed. It was a matter of several deputy generals intending to commit treason. The guerrilla general Jiang Changfu was not involved. The Jiedu government has set the tone for this case and cannot be publicized in a high-profile manner."
"Lieutenant Su, your rank was able to be promoted so much at once because the Yongniugou bandits defeated the Thule Division and Beiyang City held off the Erlongshan Li Guo Division, so I won't mention any more."
After looking around, Li Lin lowered his voice:
"As for the expansion of Battalion B and the recruitment of sergeants, the Jiedu Prefecture does not object in principle, but it will not agree, because if it agrees, it will have to allocate part of the food, grass and equipment, which is somewhat difficult for the Jiedu Prefecture.
"
Su Lu looked at Li Lin in shock, with disbelief on his face. Dongtang Camp had nothing to do with Jiang Changfu, but according to what Zhao San and his wife said, Jiang Changfu appeared at the scene of the massacre of his own village.
